ANMELDENGet your man, Margot!
MargotI felt Ezra’s entire body tense and for a moment, he stopped breathing.“Do you mean it, Margot? Are you sure?”“I am,” I say, taking his hand and leading him to the bed. Okay, that part is terrifying. Nothing that ever happened to me on a bed was good. But this is it. This is me burning Joshua out of my life for good, and it has to happen here, in our bed.Ezra looks past me and I can see him assessing my decision and how he wants to proceed so I don't freeze in the middle of our marking. He knows I want this. I tried in Dante’s pack, but he insisted that we wait until we got home. Well, now we’re home. Tonight, all my ghosts will be banished. These last two, marking and sex in a bed, are the biggest and scariest of the ghosts in my head. But I know my mate will help me, just like he always does.I can almost see him making a plan, deciding on the best way to make this the best possible experience for me as he looks at the bed. Then, his gaze returns to mine and his eyes are b
MargotWhen Ezra and I returned to the pack, I recognized the shift in myself. I could feel it the moment I stepped out of the car. I no longer look at these pack members as my equals. I’m looking at them as MY pack members. It’s a mental shift of becoming a leader and accepting my role as Luna of this pack. They may have called me Luna from the beginning, but they do the same with my mother. So, in my mind, it was a recognition of my previous position in Joshua’s pack, not my mate bond with Ezra.However, as I let go of the past and accept that Ezra is my mate, a mate who I want to in my life, I realize that the pack has recognized me as their Luna all along. The only one who wasn’t on board with me becoming Luna of this pack was me, it seems.With that in mind, I step into the packhouse as the pack welcomes us home.“I’ll drop our things off in our room, then I need to check in with Will and Lars,” Ezra says. “Do you need anything?”I smile at my mate. No matter how busy he is, he a
OlanderI spent the afternoon assessing Dr. Samuel’s skills and talking medical jargon. It’s been a long time since I’ve done that. It’s nice to talk to someone who understands what I’m saying without me having to explain it in laymen’s terms.However, as the day went on, I could feel myself getting more nervous about tonight. I’m hoping that Olivia doesn’t pull away from me. If she does, at least I feel comfortable that Dr. Samuel can treat her. That was how I based my assessment of his skills. If I was comfortable with him treating Olivia, then he passed.“So, Samuel, what do you think of our packs so far?” I ask as we finish up for the day.“Honestly, when Edward told me about your packs, I didn’t believe it. I wasn’t sure he was making the right decision by taking Eve away so late in her pregnancy. I didn’t think any Alpha would give a heavily pregnant Luna protection from her mate. I’m pleasantly surprised that not only were they allowed to come into the packs, but they are being
EveDawn finishes nursing and I pull my bra and top back on.“Why don’t I take her. I can burp her and change her for you,” Dante says.“I can do it,” I tell him.“I know you can, but you haven’t eaten yet,” he says, taking Dawn from me and beginning to pat her back.“Have you?” I ask him.“Actually, Miles is telling me I need to feed myself and his pup. We should probably call it for today,” Jacqueline says.“You’re right. I didn’t realize it was so late. Robin will be coming to find me for the same reason soon,” Nikki says, just as the door to her office opens. “Speak of a gorgeous man and who should appear,” she purrs, smiling at her mate.“My mate needs to feed my pup, ladies,” Robin says, walking over. “Hey, Dante.”“Hey, Robin. Have you heard anything about the attack tonight?” he asks.“What attack?” I ask.“You’ve been busy. If you’re done here, we can eat in my office and I’ll tell you what’s going on,” he says, before looking back at Robin.“The attack is planned for one o’cl
EveI’m not sure if this pack is always this busy, but between Lunas Jacqueline and Margot visiting me, Luna June finding her second chance mate with my father, Alpha Ezra coming to visit, scouts being spotted in the nearby forest, Dr. Samuel finding his way here, and now Luna Olivia and Dr. Olander visiting, it feels like a never-ending revolving door of people coming and going in this pack.After meeting Luna Olivia, who looks like she’s suffered much more than I did, and then watching the mate bond snap into place between one of Alpha Reese’s warriors and one of Dante’s, Dante had to leave to sit in on an Alpha call. He invited me to join him, but I noticed that Luna Margot wasn't joining, so I decided not to. I was surprised at the invite, but I haven’t decided to accept my place as Dante’s mate, so I’m not sure I should sit in on an Alpha call as if I have.After lunch and after saying goodbye to Alpha Ezra and Luna Margot, Dante let me know that the phone he ordered for me had co
EzraAfter Luna Olivia arrived in Dante’s pack, he and I got on a call with the other Alphas.“We’ve found Koden and we want to attack the pack,” Hunter begins immediately.“Where is he?” I ask.“Alpha David’s old pack,” Hunter says.I sit back. “Do we know how many pack members there are?” I ask.“Roughly fifty warriors and an unknown number of omegas,” Remington says.“Is this an attack and disable, or attack and kill mission?” I ask.“Disable as much as possible, but I think we need to talk to Alexandra and Cameron, as well as some individuals from Alpha David’s pack to see if these individuals are worth risking our lives to save. It’s a small number and most of the ones who wanted to join us, did when we rescued Luna Olivia,” Lucas says.“I can send Cameron to be part of the attack. He would know who from his brother’s pack is worthy of keeping alive,” Reese says.“What are you thinking, Ezra?” Hunter asks me.I smile sardonically. “Maybe I’m just getting old and nostalgic, but I’m
MargotHow is it possible that a woman who never had a sex drive, or at least hasn’t had one in years, is suddenly feeling almost desperate for Ezra to touch me?‘Because he’s the kind of mate we should have had from the beginning and he knows what to do with that fantastic cock of his,’ Reyna says.
EzraI’m already shaking my head before she’s done. “Margot, I don’t want the only place that we have sex to be at the place where that man mistreated you. I know you’re struggling …” I begin, but she reaches up, cupping my cheek.“It’s not that, Ezra. No one has ever done something so kind for me,
EzraI stayed close to Margot during the packhouse tour. Well, as close as I could get with five Lunas and her mother surrounding her. The relief on her face when she saw that horrible space gone meant everything to me. That’s all I wanted, to take away what that asshole of a mate did to her. To let
MargotToday was more difficult than I expected. I kept tabs on my mother, watching as she struggled through the day and then the tour. She puts on a good face, but I know she’s struggling.I checked in with her often, as did Ezra, but I also noticed that the Lunas checked in with her frequently, an
