LOGINMelody has been waiting for her 18th birthday for 8 long years, since losing her parents in the rogue wars. She couldn't wait to get her wolf, find her fated mate and not feel alone in the world and her pack anymore. When the day finally comes and a misunderstanding causes her mate to reject her, she flees the pack and builds herself a new life far away, only to be brought face to face with the mate who rejected her at a biannual tournament they are both competing in. Melody can't get over the hurt of rejection and considers a chosen mate to try to help ease her wolfs suffering, and finds herself in a love triangle that she isnt even sure she wants any part of. The pull of the mate bond is hard to resist, and her wolf and her body push her towards her fated mate, but her mind and her need to protect her heart pull her towards the safe and dependable option. Both men use the tournament as a way to try to best eachother and prove their worth, fighting for the highest place on the leaderboard. Love rivalries and unexpected allies only make matters worse for Melody as she has to contend with one of her highschool bullies and a sarcastic, underhanded beta who thrives on the drama her life has become. Meanwhile two Alphas pulling the strings behind the scenes put Melody in an unexpected life threatening situation and she knows the only person she has ever truly been able to rely on is herself. What she doesnt expect is for the moon goddess to intervene and change her fate, but is her new destiny any better than what she ran from in the first place?
View MoreChapter Forty-TwoMelody’s POV I know it’s silly, childish really, but when I was a child and Alpha Luther and Luna Raine sat me down and told me my parents had both been killed defending the pack from rogues, I had this image in my head of a wild looking, rabid beast with a foaming mouth and evil red eyes, huge teeth and scraggly fur. My mother shouldn’t have even been in harm’s way. She never had any formal training, only what my dad had taught her, some simple self defence techniques. That day when she ran to the border with his lunch, leaving me at the pack house with Arthur and his parents, was the last day I ever saw them.This rogue... he looks nothing like the nightmare my imagination conjured up. I’ve seen a couple of rogues from a distance, but that was before I left here. After what happened with my parents, Alpha Luther kept me shielded from anything that might cause me any more trauma. The pack cells are damp and dark and with only one small barred window at the end
Chapter Forty-OneArthur’s POV By the time Melody is cleaned up and we have eaten it’s late. The others are back with all the luggage and supplies and are settled back in. Tomorrow it’ll be back to business as usual.My father sits on the huge dark leather sofa in his office, nursing a whiskey, with a grim look on his face. He knows that whatever I have to say can’t be good, and my mother stands beside him with her hand resting on his shoulder. My father has always told me that she is his strength. It’s why he won’t step down as Alpha until I have my Luna to stand beside me.“A man needs to know what he is fighting for. Your mother gives me the strength I need to weather the hard times, and the peace I need to lead our pack.” He told me when I was barely sixteen.At that time I already knew deep down that Melody would be my fated mate, and I couldn’t wait for us to lead together.“First of all, why did you ask me to keep Regina’s father out of the loop? If his daughter is missin
Chapter FortyMelody’s POV Pulling up at Silver Moon pack house is like a dream, or maybe a nightmare. I don’t know what to expect from Alpha Luther, Luna Raine, or the rest of the pack. I left without word in the middle of the night and have had nothing to do with any of them since.Being back here is weird, but also kind of nice. I feel a connection to the memories of my parents and this is the land I grew up on and called home for eighteen years. I honestly didn’t think wild horses would be able to drag me back here, but grandpa and Alpha Luther seem to have been scheming behind my back. Something Arthur isn’t very happy about. Now, rather than being here to train and help with the rogue problem, we have something much more pressing to deal with.“Take him to the cells, I’ll be down when I’ve cleaned up.” A familiar voice booms close by. Arthur gives my hand a squeeze and opens his door, stepping out to greet his dad who had been oblivious to our arrival. Craning my neck to
Chapter Thirty-Nine Arthur’s POV “We can’t find her anywhere. Llewellyn hadn’t seen her in the last couple of days either. It doesn’t look like much is gone from her room, and this was on her pillow. She wouldn’t leave without her things, not by choice.” Dane thrusts a piece of paper into my hand.I only sent him to tell Regina she would be travelling back with the other competitors from our pack, not Dane, Melody and I, and to be ready to leave in two hours. I admit I sent him because I was hoping to avoid a drama, but in hindsight, Regina hasn’t been herself since she hurt Melody almost a week ago. I’ve barely seen her, and when I have caught a glimpse of her, she has been all over Llewellyn like white on rice.“Let me see this.” I unfold the paper and scan the loopy script once, then read it properly again, letting every word sink in. This has to be a joke, payback for not giving in to her relentless pursuit. “Do you think it’s legit?” Dane whispers, trying not to draw the at
Chapter SeventeenMelody’s POV My senses have up and left me. Well... my common sense at least.This is wrong but it feels so right. His touch, the way his fingers feel inside me, the pull of the mate bond making everything feel deeper, stronger... it’s too much. All I can do is let go. So I do.
Chapter TwentyArthur’s POVI watch, barely controlling my jealousy, as Dane holds Melody’s hands and tells her what a prick I am. He really has a strange idea of what helping actually involves.“Let’s get you two to bed.” I hear the tail end of their conversation as they walk with her hand resting
Chapter Twenty-FiveMelody’s POV I have foolishly been telling myself that my wolf has been influencing my thoughts and emotions, and that gave me a false sense of control. She has been quiet this whole time, leaving me feeling exposed. What I’m feeling now, that’s all me.The heat has receded. I
Chapter Twenty-SevenMelody’s POV “So you care about him now?” Thomas’ voice comes from behind me and I can’t help flinching as he takes hold of my shoulders and turns me to face him.“it... it’s complicated.” I do. I care. More than I care to admit out loud right now. My head is a mess, and af
