I watched Selene eat with mild amusement. She’d learned a lot in the past few weeks at the royal packhouse. Her days were full of etiquette classes and she was a model student, or so her teachers said. I felt slightly guilty—there was a lot to learn and little time to do it—but I’d asked her repeatedly if she wanted to take a break from the classes. Her answer was always a firm ‘no’.

She chewed her parmesan chicken and then dabbed with her napkin at the corner of her mouth. That was new. Us

  • The Alpha's Scorned Mate    Epilogue

    AvaFive Years Later“Julia! Johnny! Get back here!” I called after the twins in a desperate plea to contain them. They were two years old and full of energy, especially in wolf form like they were now.They ignored my pleas and kept running down the palace halls, yipping playfully at one another.When I found out I was pregnant with twins, my heart literally stopped for a moment. I remembered how hard it had been when Oliver was just a baby in the human world. Twins meant double the amount of work, double the late-night feedings, and double the diapers, too! But Leo had been overjoyed, and I realized it would be so much different this time around. I was a Queen, after all, and had an entourage of maids to help. So, my fears shifted to the same joy Leo felt. Twins were a blessing—it would be double the joy, double the kisses, and double the cuddles.We held a grand celebration when the twins were born to welcome them. We had one of each: a beautiful baby girl with dark hair and striki

    Ava I woke up very early on the morning of the crowning. The first thing I did was reach for Leo, but he wasn’t there. The bedroom was strewn with girls, all sleeping in assorted places. I knew I was supposed to stay with the she-wolves until the ceremony, as was tradition, but I missed Leo. I decided to sneak away to go and see Leo before anyone else woke up. I tip-toed down the hallway. It was still so early that the palace hadn’t really woken up yet, so I managed to make it to Leo’s bedroom unseen. I opened the door and slyly crept across to his bed. He must have heard me, though, because he awoke with a start. “Ava?” he said, sitting up and rubbing his eyes. Then he glanced out the window. “It’s early. What are you doing here? Is something wrong?” I pressed my finger to my lips to tell him to hush. Then I undid the ribbon at the front of my nightgown and let it fall to the floor. I stood naked at the foot of the bed. Leo sat up even further, his eyes locked on my body. “You

    Ava I was washing up in my bedroom after a long meeting with Queen Patricia. She had seemed impressed by how thorough I’d been, and that made me happy. After the meeting, she’d told me to go to my bedroom and wait for Cassie and the girls to come and get me. I honestly had no idea what this whole girls’ night thing was about, but whenever I tried to ask Queen Patricia, she just smiled demurely and told me that I’d find out. Thoughts of vapid bachelorette parties swirled through my head. Of course, I’d never actually been to a bachelorette party because I didn’t have any friends, so I was basing it all on what I’d seen in movies and on TV. I giggled to myself for a moment, wondering if werewolves had strippers, then reminded myself that whatever was in store for me that night was likely very different than any sort of human bachelorette party. It didn’t really matter to me either way—I was just so bloody happy to have friends in the first place. I didn’t know when they were comin

    Leo Ava and I went back to the palace after our visit to Ocean Crest and announced that there would be a Luna crowning. The news was met with joyous cheers. And then the work began. I was determined to give Ava the biggest, best, grandest Luna crowning that anyone had ever seen. We set the date for a month from the day, which was a long time by werewolf standards for these sorts of things, but I wanted to give every pack ample time to make preparations to come. I wanted everyone there. I wanted everyone to see my beautiful, gorgeous Luna be crowned. The month flew by. Now that Ava and I were no longer weighed down by the heaviness of whether or not she was going to stay, we felt light as air. We spent almost every waking moment together—well, as much as we could. I still had to work, and Ava was knee-deep in her studies already. We’d flown in a training specialist from Europe to tutor Ava one-on-one, and she was engrossed in her studies. She often took her books to the dining roo

    Leo I can’t believe I agreed to this. We were driving into Ocean Crest, and the scent of humans was so thick in the air that I wanted to roll up the windows to try to block it out—but then I’d be stuck with the smell of the car, which I wasn’t crazy about, either. Ava, however, was happier than a pig in shit as she ripped down the road in her new car. She went on and on about how much she’d missed driving, and about how nicely this “bad boy” cornered. I hadn’t wanted to come, of course. The last thing I ever wanted to do was make a trip into the human world. Just going to the market was enough to make me want to vomit, and that wasn’t even really close to any humans. But Ava had asked me to come and I couldn’t refuse her anything, so here we were. I had no idea why we were going back to Ocean Crest. Ava told me she had a surprise, but what surprise could there possibly be in the human world? Nothing I’d want, that was for sure. We drove down a long road and Ava pointed out the

    Ava “No, I want bigger blankets,” I told one of the maids. “Fluffier ones. Softer. And more pillows.” “Yes, Miss Ava,” the maid said, then scurried away to fulfill my request. The maids and I were in one of the guest rooms, preparing it for Ana and Parker. I wanted to make sure it was perfect. I didn’t know what their life had been like while they were with their own pack, but I knew their life had been very hard since their exile, so I wanted to give them the royal treatment, so to speak. Ana and Parker were in the dining room eating. They’d both had a nice, hot bath and were given clothes to wear. I told them their room would be ready within the hour, which didn’t give us much time. I knew Leo wasn’t super happy about having Ana and Parker here, just as I knew the only reason he’d agreed to let them come was because of me—but it didn’t matter. All that mattered was that they were here now. When I’d gotten lost on my run and wandered into that little town, I knew as soon as I

    My thoughts were interrupted by a light knock on the door. Selene entered, wearing a lavender silk nightgown with a neckline that dove low in the front. Her hair was freshly brushed, and it cascaded over her shoulders. The nightgown hugged her hips, accentuating her lovely curves. She was a godde

    She blushed and rolled her eyes. “Enough of this. I’m going to shift.” And without another word, Selene let her wolf loose.Storm howled angrily when he saw Selene shift. He wanted to be in wolf form, too, with Mercury. I let him push up and relaxed my muscles, giving in to him. Moments later, I wa

    SeleneI woke up before the sun on the morning of the Luna Crowning.“Go back to sleep, love,” Jax said softly when he noticed me stir.“I can’t,” I whispered. “I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to wake you.”I reached out and touched his cheek. He grumbled in a teasing tone and rolled over, still half-asle
