LOGINWhen Drake and Talia returned to their table, they found it unoccupied.Maya and Caden were on the dancefloor, and Talia was unsure if they had taken any breaks from dancing. The Beta couple was visibly excited about the upcoming heat, and Talia was touched that they didn’t question her source of that information.James, Cornelia, Meg, and Kai went to their rooms, and it was not farfetched to think they won’t be seen until tomorrow.Drake and Talia sipped their drinks while chatting thoughts through their private mind-link. Drake would point out people and share their backgrounds, and Talia listened with interest. The duo would also use their super-hearing to eavesdrop on other people talking.Alpha Edward was at the table with Alpha Richard and Alpha William. Talia was surprised about them not doing more than greetings when they passed nearby, but Drake told her that all three of them would be here for the next day or two, so they were probably waiting for the audience to thin out be
"Please, don’t mind him," Luna Michelle said to Drake and Talia, unsure if it was alright to smile at Ashton’s silly antics in front of Drake’s furious expression. "Come on, Ashton. It’s time to go home.""You are not staying overnight?" Talia asked.Alpha Cristian responded, "The drive is not long, and I need to handle a few matters in the morning. If schedule allows it, we will return tomorrow or the next day."Ashton was not willing to part with Talia. He ignored Drake and stood in front of Talia, craning his neck so that he could look at her."Come with me!" Ashton demanded. "My room is big enough for both of us."Talia’s eyebrows shot up in surprise. The boy was decisive. "That is very generous of you, but I can’t come. I have work to do here."Ashton pouted. "When will I see you again?"Talia thought how he was adorable. She would hug him if not for the fear that Drake might blow a fuse and harm the kid. "Soon.""Will you come to my birthday?"Talia squatted to get down on his l
Talia wondered who would chase a boy that obviously belonged to this party. Did he make some mischief? Did he see something he shouldn’t have? Or were baddies after him?Talia’s every next possibility was more dangerous and her head whipped in the direction from where more hurried steps were heard.Talia looked incredulously at the three girls that came into view; they wore fancy dresses and had neat hair. None of them could be more than ten years old, and Talia wondered if they were also being chased by someone.The three girls stopped to talk to Talia."Aunty, did you see a pretty boy?" One girl asked.Talia realized that the girls were looking for the boy who was behind the bench. Were they his friends? Should she expose him? She decided against it. "I am here for a while, and I didn’t see a boy."The girls exchanged dejected expressions and then continued to follow the path with urgency.Talia craned her neck to see the boy squatting behind the bench. "They are gone now; you can c
Talia was sitting at the bar and mixing her pink cocktail with the tiny umbrella while wondering how much time had passed. Was it too obvious that she made herself available on purpose? Was that why no one had approached her so far?"Alpha Natalia," a male voice got her attention, and Talia perked up. Someone took the bait!"I am Beta Milo from the Silverfur pack. I wonder if you remember me."Talia was pleased that someone had made a move. "Of course, I remember you, Beta Milo. We met at the Council of Alphas.""It’s an honor." He looked around. "I don’t see your Beta here.""Betas," Talia corrected him. "Meg and Kai are enjoying this event. It is a party." Talia was itchy to skip the useless chit-chat. "What brings you here?"Beta Milo shifted on his feet awkwardly. "This is about my daughter."Talia didn’t get it. "Your daughter?""Yes, my daughter, Jade. I’m not sure if you got a chance to meet her."Talia needed a moment to connect the dots.Jade... the Silverfur pack... Beta’s d
Alpha Maddox and Luna Tatiana were hosts, and they had many famous and powerful people in attendance. However, one person was the center of attention: Alpha Natalia Moonrider.Alpha Natalia stepped into the limelight reserved for the most influential individuals of the werewolf society at the Council of the Alphas. At that time, she introduced herself as Talia Moonrider, but everyone accepted her name as Natalia. It was apparent that Talia was just a part of her name, and people assumed that whoever spread the news of her existence didn’t hear it right the first time. She appeared out of nowhere, but considering the mysterious status of the Midnight Guardians pack, no one could find a fault in that.Pretending not to notice many eyes on her, Talia immersed herself in dancing with Drake. There was so much meaning in how he held her firmly and guided her skillfully over the dancefloor. She hoped this could last forever.They moved like one, without breaking eye contact, and only a blind
After Beta Milo from the Silverfur pack came to ask Cornelia to dance (and she rejected him), James’ mood became unstable as he was fighting to control his wolf that craved violence.James was gripping Cornelia’s waist to the point of hurting, and she saw that he was on the verge of snapping.At first, Cornelia wanted to scold him and tell him to stop being unreasonable, but a moment later, she realized that James grew up in a hostile environment that taught him people were sinister and always plotting something. In all that mess, she was his happy place, and he couldn’t bear the possibility of losing her, even if it was only in his head.How can she scold him for that?Cornelia wanted to comfort him; to assure him that things will be alright and that no one can take her away, but how can she do that with all the audience? They needed to leave this party and find privacy."My leg is aching. Can you help me to my room?"James’ eyebrows shoot up. "Of course."He wanted to hold her hand
Marcy's mind was a mess after receiving the news that tomorrow she will meet Drake, the Alpha of the notorious Dark Howlers pack, aka her future husband. She still didn't recuperate from the event of finding (and rejecting) her mate, yet now she needs to think about another man. And this was not j

Marcy mused that she and Nora should have at least something in common. If nothing else, based on Nora's shiny hair and flawless skin, the two of them can talk about hair and makeup, and Nora's outfit was branded as well."I don't need anything.", Marcy said. "But you are welcome to come in if you
