Adam asked, "Sir, shall I put away this mask? Miss Bray has passed the test. There is no need to continue this game."The reason why Mr. Hunter was still single was that all the women fled when they saw his face with the revolting mask. Garrett wanted to be certain that the woman who would be his mate genuinely cared about him, not just his power.Lily was the first one to come back and even claimed that she would overcome this obstacle. She was very sincere and full of passion and joy.Garrett looked at the mask thoughtfully and finally shook his head. "It's fun to tease her. I will keep wearing it for now. Have you found all the information I need?" Garrett asked. Hearing Garrett's question, the secretary stepped forward and picked up the report that Garrett had placed on his desk. He flipped through the pages to refresh his memory. "Sir, Miss Bray is a kind-hearted, honorable young woman. She never entertained any other man before meeting your brother. It seems that she would w
Lily kept touching where Garrett cupped her face the entire way to the pack grounds. He was so gentle with her. It was cute but also alarming. He was the complete opposite of what people said about him. 'He's just like us. They underestimated us because we're Omega. They thought we would cry over Matthew instead we made him cry,' Dina said proudly. It was true. It was unheard of a she-wolf rejecting her mate and especially not an Omega. Lily grinned at the thought that they would keep showing them that they made a grave mistake crossing her. Lily made it back onto her father's territory. The gammas who were the security and guards of the pack let her in as she was still part of the pack even if her father basically sold her off. It also helped that she was always kind to them even when she didn't have to. "Stay in the car, Adam," Lily said as she was getting out. "But, my Luna, Alpha Garrett told me to be with you at all times," Adam protested. Lily paused for a second after
"Get your damn hands off me! How dare you touch me!" Mandy snarled, snatching her wrist free. "Who do you think you are?" "Adam Kenwell, former Gamma of Alpha Jack," Adam said firmly. Mandy's eyes widened in surprise thinking that Adam was just some random wolf sniffing around Lily. She quickly pivots, knowing exactly how to make this situation benefit her. "How disgusting Lily! You scold us and yet, you're out here cheating on Garrett with Adam," Mandy accused. "This is why Matthew wanted nothing with you. He knew you were a loose woman. He told us all about your escapades." "Then, he must have confused me with Brandy," Lily retorted. "Yes, yes, disgusting. Don't try to spin this on me. We both saw how he was touching you. You must be sleeping with him. I should inform Alpha Jack immediately," Brandy said following her mother's lead. She pulled out her phone as she was preparing to call Alpha Jack. "What? What are you talking about? Adam is…" Lily sputtered in confusio
Unfortunately, people around him also joined the woman and talked about the terrible scars on Garrett's face. Garrett didn't care about this talk at all and didn't plan to defend himself, but his silence made Lily think he felt bad about himself, so she decided to help. Lily couldn't help but feel anger at how they were talking about him. Lily had the urge to dig her claws into the woman and throw her around, but it was against the rules to hurt a human in any way, regardless of how much they deserved it. She made a beeline for the crowd and immediately hid Garrett behind her, protecting him like a hen would her chick. Lily said loudly, "Watch your mouth! Your kid was the one who accidentally bumped into my man and even got cake all over his suit because of it! Why are you falsely accusing him of hurting your son?" "Who the hell are you? Mind your business. You were not there to witness what took place. Do you not see how menacing this man is? Someone like you could never
"That lying wench," Lily thought as she watched the security footage. Just like Lily thought, the security footage showed that it was the kid's fault. In fact, it looked as if the mother told the child to bump into Garrett. Seeing this made Lily growl under her breath. 'She's a terrible mother!' she thought of how this mother could willingly endanger her child. Lily pulled out her phone and began recording the security footage. "Thank you," she said to the cashier and the manager. She grabbed Garrett's hand and stormed out of the cake shop with him right behind her. As soon as the crowd saw the video, they started to apologize and disperse. After all, the child did bump into Garrett and so the mother could not blame others or be unreasonable anymore. Also, no one wanted to be sued. The mother rolled her eyes and thought of another excuse. She didn't care what this idiot girl said or showed. She heard about how Mr. Hunter paid people off to avoid bad publicity. She was goin
"I don't want this incident to ruin your enjoyment of your desserts. So, I am going to take you somewhere else," Garrett said softly as he pulled her close to him as Adam drove them to a different restaurant. Her scent was addictive and Garrett wanted to hold her like this for as long as she would allow it. Lily said nothing, allowing Garrett to take control as she was mentally drained from defending him. Being this close, she could feel his aura and his strong scent. 'He smells like an Alpha. How could we have thought that Matthew was a true Alpha?' Dina, Lily's wolf, said. Lily agreed. She never felt this way about Matthew nor did his aura ever make her feel so secure. Lily subconsciously snuggled closer to Garrett much to his surprise. Garrett smiled to himself as he was even more happy that Lily was submitting to him in this way. She was acting as a proper Luna should. "Do you feel sorry for me?" Garrett asked. "What?" Lily responded, lifting her head up slightly
Garrett looked into Lily's blushing face with a mischievous glint in his eyes. He couldn't resist teasing her. She was so easy to get riled up. Even though she had shown immense bravery earlier, now, however, she seemed nervous, adding to her already interesting nature as a she-wolf. 'Stop teasing her!' Berric, his wolf, scolded him. 'You know that she is inexperienced. You don't want to chase her off.' 'Why? Chasing wouldn't be too bad. She looks so cute when she is flustered,' Garrett said. "Didn't you say you wanted to get used to me? Think of this as a test. Were you lying before?" Garrett's voice was husky as he spoke. Lily was fully aware of the playful game they were playing and the need to maintain appearances for the paparazzi. They had to convincingly portray themselves as a real couple. So, Lily had to look as if she was enjoying his affection. Lily understood his teasing and recognized his attempts to take advantage of the situation. "I am not a liar," she resp
In the morning, a beautiful lavender sweater dress had been hanging from Lily. She was going to meet her future father-in-law properly. The first time she met him was during the rejection ceremony where she didn't necessarily act properly. 'It doesn't matter. He was a complete ass,' Dina growled. 'Him and your father.' 'Well, if he hadn't agreed to the rejection ceremony, we would've been with a cheating mate,' Lily responded. 'Good point. Still, he's an ass,' Dina agreed. Lily couldn't help but be nervous. Her hands were actually sweaty. Garrett could smell her nervousness and looped his arm around Lily bringing her out of her thoughts. "There's nothing for you to worry about," he said confidently. "Who said I was worrying?" Lily said in a snarky manner which caused Garrett to chuckle and pulled her in closer to nuzzle the side of her neck causing her to blush. "Stop it. You're going to get me flustered." After getting out of the car, Lily looked at the carved black
