LOGINAurora's POV: Lilly and I sat on the couch and Jared sat on a chair staring out the window like a guard. "Jared, you say that you are the gamma, so I am your assignment?" I asked, looking at him. "Yes, though I am the prince's gamma. The gamma is meant to protect the Luna," he said, standing up stretching. "I am going to look around," he said, giving me a small smile before taking a bow and leaving the living room. "Odd," Lilly said, taking a bite of her ice cream. I looked at her with questioning eyes. "I would assume he didn't want any part of you based off that reaction," She said softly. "Yeah, maybe," I said. I heard the elevator door ding, assuming it was Jared leaving. I did not bother getting up. "Well don't the two of you look comfortable?" his smooth voice said, filling my ears. I could not help but smile. "We are! Do you want to join us?" I said. His hand touched the back of my neck softly as he leaned over and pulled my head back, kissing me softly. A shiver raced down m
Damon's POV: I sat watching Everley try to seduce me. My lip curled up in disgust. I'd asked politely for her to leave out of respect for her father. My Fathers beta. Mac had been growling in my mind, clawing his way out, wanting loose, to rip her apart. I tried to keep him shoved down, but it is getting harder daily to control him. Mated Lycan men are not known for patience when someone who is not their mate doesn't back off when asked they get a bit aggressive. It is even worse when they find their mates but have not marked the completing the bond. I'd already started to lose it when she walked in the door. I didn't like her and I didn't trust her. Then, when she said I'd concocted wild stories, Mac took over, and I honestly could not blame him. If being respectable to her for the sake of our fathers was not getting the point crossed, then aggressiveness would. Toney slammed me against the wall repeatedly as we struggled. I growled, my fangs elongating as I only half heatedly push
Everley POV: "Everley," he said, irritation lining his voice, his eyes now angry red points, a low growl escaping his chest. Goddess, what was wrong with him? Why was he acting like this? He would at least hide his anger towards me, but it's like he couldn't control it. I continued walking towards him, a forced smile on my face. "Stop!" He demanded, holding his hand out, making me stop mid-stride. "That's close enough, Everley!" he said. "What do you want?" He demanded, leaning back in his chair. "Why Damon, I wanted to see you. I thought we could go to lunch," I said, trailing off as I caught a scent I didn't recognize. It was a woman's scent, and it radiated from Damon. "No, Everley," he said harshly. "I told you No a million times, I do not want you near me at all ever!" He said tightly. "Oh, come on Damon, we grew up together," I said smoothly, giving him my best smile. A frown creased his face. "It is out of respect for your father and his loyal service to our crown that I will
Everley POV: My phone rang looking at the collar ID. I noticed that it said Leah. I answered it "Leah? What have you got for me today?" I asked her. "Forgive me ma'am," but you asked to call if I had anything to report." She stammered out. "Yes, on with it!" I demanded. "Well ma'am its the prince he currently has two woman in his living room" She said softly. "Okay and?" I asked, although it is uncommon two woman in his living room did not sound like a big deal he probably is entertaining guests. "He is not home ma'am" She said quietly. "Not home? What do you mean two bitches are in his living room, and he's not there? Why are they there? Who are they?" I fired question after question at her. Her silence feeds my anger. "I don't know ma'am. I just got back from visiting my sick grandma in the south," she said. "But I will do more digging and call you back," she said before hanging up. Throwing my phone, I jumped off my bed and ran to the king's study. I knew he'd be entertaining the
Auror's POV: I listened intently as Lilly told me everything. She shifted alone? I closed my eyes remembering how painful It was for me to shift and how thankful I was for Damon being there I am not sure if I could have survived without him. "Well" I said taking a drink of my pineapple juice. "I guess I should start at the beginning, You know I met Damon at the club on my birthday, You know about the one night stand, The dream, the all that. But what you don't know is the information I have found out since that night" I said sipping my juice again nervously. "After that night Damon and his team followed me everywhere for my protection" I said watching lilly's eyebrow fork curiously. "Damon was drugged that night at the club" I said trying to put the events in order but having a hard time to make it understandable. "Ok" I said taking a dramatic breath in and letting it out. "I am a Lycan, Damon is a lycan We are mates" I said. I watched as lilly head cocked to the side. "Lycans and w
Lilly’s POV: My wolf was bowing in submission to Damon this entire time. I could sense the power he possessed. Who the hell was this guy? What kind of game is this? He’s powerful, yet was kind and very gentle with my best friend. I could not have seen that coming. And I honestly couldn’t have asked for more when it came to her. She’s my best friend, my sister, my soul sister. The conversation at breakfast flowed easily and put me at ease until I smelled him. It was the most enticing smell I’d ever smelled. Then my wolf howled when Toney walked through the door. His scent hit me. It was a mix of a crisp spring morning with a slight undertone of cinnamon, my favorite. My eyes looked up and locked with the most beautiful hazel eyes I’d ever seen belonging to the most handsome man I’d ever seen. My heart skipping a beat, “Mate..mate,” Cora yelled, jumping up and down in my mind. I was at a loss for words. I had no idea what was going on and in a blink of an eye he was across the room ho
