Priscilla

The pain of my rejection to Dylan was almost more than I could bear, but I stood, needing him to finish it so his death didn't kill me too. Our daughters deserve more than losing both parents because of his betrayal.

His acceptance of my rejection felt like half of my soul was ripped from my body, like my lifespan was just cut in half and I’m now on the cusp of death.

The pain had been too much, and I’d collapsed, only to be caught in the arms of a man who shouldn’t smell nearly as good as he does. His arms around me shouldn’t feel healing, but they do.

“How?” I ask, my voice shaky. “Why?”

“I don’t know. The timing couldn’t be worse, but I believe everything happens for a reason. There’s a reason I came here today. I didn’t need to be here, but I felt something deep inside me pulling me to this pack. Now I know why.”

I should move, I want to, this is wrong on so many levels, but being in his arms is already healing me. I hear the whistle of Roman’s claws through the air a mom

Well, now we know where Sawyer's fated mate has been.

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 81: Time Away

    SloaneBeing in Alpha William’s pack has been good for me, better than I thought it would be. First, Alpha William introduced me to his pack as his granddaughter. Then he went on to tell them all about Aunt Samara and how I was her adopted daughter, just like she was his. He didn’t say a word about my parents or why I was being adopted, just that I was.Then he introduced Scarlet as my best friend here to visit with us. It was really nice that no one here knew my story. They didn’t look at me, or whisper when they thought I couldn’t hear them. I know Uncle Roman and Aunt Samara would be angry if they knew that their pack did that, but it’s not worth the trouble. The things that they’re whispering can’t be worse than what my parents did.The first week with Scarlet was all about exploring everything in the pack. Well, that and Scarlet flirting with Will. He’s nice and all, but I’m just not interested in all of that. I was sad to see her go when her mom came to pick her up, but that gave

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 80: Goodbyes and Decisions

    RomanSamara’s Luna ceremony was better than I could have imagined. After the ceremony, I took my mate around, showing her off to everyone. Only a couple of Alphas questioned if she really was a white wolf. Then Ayla pushed forward showing her power and word spread quickly. You don’t have to see Ayla to feel the strength that she has.After that, everyone had a good time. They didn’t need to ask if Sawyer and Dylan had been responsible for the Brenner’s deaths. Knowing they were gone and that I now control those packs was all the answer they needed. I danced with my mate, Sloane, and Scarlet, then carried Slade around after he fell asleep in Luna Jasmine’s arms.When the party finally began to wind down, Samara and I took Slade and Aria upstairs, telling Sloane not to stay up all night. However, all of us knew that she and Scarlet wouldn’t get a wink of sleep. Not to be outdone, I kept my mate up most of the rest of the night as well, reminding her once again how happy I am that she’s

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 79: Luna Ceremony

    SamaraI can’t remember having this much fun since my mother passed away. When she was alive, I’d sit with her while she would get ready for big events, or we’d get ready together. By then, Althea was old enough that she didn’t want to participate, but my mother and I always had a great time.Getting ready for my Luna ceremony with Elizabeth, Sloane, Scarlet and eventually Luna Devi and Luna Jasmine, was reminiscent of my time with my mother. I was happy to see that Elizabeth and Scarlet have matching dresses, just like Sloane and I.Luna Devi is doing my hair when I feel Roman push his love through the bond. I instantly reach out, embracing it and him.Luna Devi starts chuckling, distracting me.“What’s funny?” I ask her.“Ayla just started purring,” Elizabeth says, grinning at me.I smile. “Roman,” is all I have to say. All the adults are mated so they know what that means.Once we’re done, everyone heads downstairs leaving me and Sloane alone.“Are you ready to stand on that stage b

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 78: Promises

    Sloane“Why do that Alpha and that woman keep looking at you?” Scarlet asks me.I know who she's talking about and I can guess, but I’m not sure. Because we’re in the dining hall, I give her a look letting her know that I’ll tell her later.“Mom, who are those people over there?” she asks instead.Beta Elizabeth, now Luna Elizabeth, looks to where Scarlet is gesturing.“Which ones? Those are all guests for Luna Samara’s ceremony tomorrow.“Can you go around and let me know who is who? I mean, I know Sloane’s Grandpa Will and Grandma Jasmine, and her Grandpa Sterling and Grandma Devi, but who are the others?” she asks.“The ones sitting across from Alpha Roman and Luna Samara are Alpha Waylon and his friend Judith,” she says.“His friend? What does that mean?” she asks. Scarlet is really good at getting answers. The woman was introduced to me as Judith as well. No title, just Judith.“It’s a long story, but I understand that Alpha Waylon is planning to take Judith as his mate,” Luna Eli

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 77: Alpha Waylon

    Roman“Remember what I said, Alpha Waylon,” I growl, my warning very clear.“I’m not going to say anything. I promised you I wouldn’t unless she asks. Who is the man she is calling her grandfather?” he asks, watching Sloane introduce Scarlet to Alpha William.“Why don’t I go get Aria while the four of you talk,” my mother says, walking up. ‘Do you want me to get your father?’ she asks me in the mind link.‘Not yet,’ I tell her.“Slade is with Luna Jasmine, of course,” I tell her out loud. I’m still amazed that he’s attached himself to her so easily.“Alpha Waylon, Judith, follow me,” I tell them.I notice the two haven’t taken their eyes off Sloane. If they do anything to disrupt the peace that she’s just starting to find, I’ll tear them to shreds.Once we’re in my office, I gesture for them to sit, pulling Samara onto the couch beside me.“You asked who Sloane was talking to. That is Alpha William. He’s the man who adopted me when I was on the run after my family was murdered,” Samara

  • The Mark of Betrayal   Chapter 76: Dresses and Guests

    SamaraWhen Roman’s parents arrived, they were surprised to see how Sloane and Slade had attached themselves to Alpha William and Luna Jasmine.“So you’re the Alpha we need to thank for saving and protecting our precious Samara?” Alpha Sterling asks over dinner.“As I’ve said before, I did what any Alpha would do. I took in a pup that needed help,” Alpha William says.“A pup who also needed protection. You gave her that as well. That is important and not something every Alpha would have done, considering what happened to her family,” he says.I see Alpha William glance at Sloane, a gentle reminder to be careful of their conversation in front of her. Sterling takes the hint and changes the direction of the conversation.“How are things in the south?”“Hot,” William says, laughing.“How hot?” Sloane asks. I know from experience that the southern packs are considerably warmer than those here in the north.“Well, for starters, we very rarely get snow and if we do, it doesn’t last nearly as
