ログインLeonaI gathered all the photos back into the box, my hands trembling with pure fury.“The idiot really thinks he can guilt-trip us?” Alma growled.“Oh, he doesn't know us at all if he really thinks pathetic gestures can win us back,” I snapped, completely on the same page as my wolf. “He didn't think about any of these memories while siding with his sweet little Rose. He didn't think about our years together while marking and mating his so-called sister.”But more than being mad at Erik, I was furious with the other Alpha asshole who had been standing behind me moments ago. Did Stellan seriously think I didn't scent him? That I didn't hear his footsteps, his heavy breathing, or feel his aura slipping as anger radiated from him in waves? Of course, he was angry—he was terrified of losing his King title to Erik.“Leona, he's just jealous,” Alma said softly.“Are you trying to defend him now?” I frowned internally. “You've got to b
Stellan Thank the Goddess that Leona just rolled over to her side of the bed and passed out because I desperately needed to calm down. She had just been having fun, exaggerating, and imitating sex to get rid of the Elders, but for me, the thrill had been entirely real. I had barely touched her, yet I was burning with desire. I was called the ruthless Alpha, the Monster of the North, but tonight, I had been terrified that this beautiful woman would turn around and see how painfully hard I was just from a few kisses. Her body was a masterpiece. Strong muscles combined with luscious curves—a lethal combination. But I wasn't attracted only to her body. I loved the way she carried herself—confident and graceful. She was fierce, unafraid to stand up for herself, and unafraid to laugh or cry. The fire in her eyes was like a magnet I couldn't ignore. Leona wasn't some perfect Mary Sue; she had flaws, but her flaws made her real
I had no choice but to shower quickly, throw a robe on top of my silk pajamas, and march to the master suite that I would share with Stellan from now on. I silently prayed that he would already be asleep.But the moment I slipped inside, his eyes pinned me to the spot.Bright. Electric blue. Shining like the North Star in the dark sky under the dim light of the bedroom. His wolf was right at the surface, and he looked at me like I was his next meal.His hair was still damp from the shower, a few droplets falling onto his shirtless chest and sliding down his perfectly shaped abs and narrow waist before disappearing behind the waistband of his sweatpants. The pants hung dangerously low.I swallowed hard and pressed my thighs together automatically. I was not afraid of him—I was never afraid of anyone, actually—but I was scared of the way he made me feel. I did not want to want him, but I did. My breath hitched traitorously.“Like what you see?” he asked, raising an eyebrow and smiling s
“Leona, please stop. Let us be civil. Defying an Elder will only lead to punishment,” Elder Thomas said, his hands raised in a protective stance. “And humiliating your future Luna doesn't require punishment?” I roared, my muscles coiled and ready to bolt. “We are only doing what we must. A quick check-up, and it will be over. Your honour will be restored.” I said nothing, my eyes darting around as I calculated the fastest escape route. “Leona, please cooperate, or we will be forced to seize you and deliver you to the clinic.” Time froze. I had only seconds to decide. If I ran, or if I went through with the check-up, either choice meant waving goodbye to my life as the Night Storm Luna. Suddenly, strong hands gripped my waist and pulled me back. My body hit a wall of solid muscle that shielded me from the threat. A familiar scent washed over me—forest leaves and rain—and I inst
Leona Three days passed in a blur of combat training, spending time with Brian and Emiliya. Even Garrison joining us in the garden once. A training with Colette was also surprisingly pleasant; she had done a complete one-hundred-and-eighty-degree turn and now treated me like her own daughter. Rebecca was quiet, not stirring up any trouble for me. But I wasn't delusional. She-wolves like her don't learn their place that quickly. She would definitely strike again, but for now, I enjoyed the peace. Surprisingly, I missed Stellan. It wasn't as if we were even close when he was in the pack, but sometimes I missed his cold eyes, his grumpy face, and the thrill of teasing him. I had sent him a couple of messages, and he actually replied. I was shocked by how warm his texts were. “Maybe there's something special in that city air,” Alma joked in my mind. I was currently on my way to Stellan’s
Stellan The car sped toward the airport, where my private jet had been waiting far too long. Leona’s face flashed in my mind—the way she had looked at me back before entering the car, her eyes filled with gratitude and an adoration so deep it felt as though she believed I had hung the moon just for her. I had never expected a she-wolf so proud and fierce to be capable of such raw emotion. But judging by what I had witnessed today at her family home, she was far from pampered or loved. They were brutally using her as a chess piece to forge whatever political alliances they desired. “Leona is sweet and kind,” Skoll barked in my mind. “How would you know?” I chuckled internally. “A wolf trusts his instincts. We see past the illusions you humans try to project. Leona’s fierce exterior is just a shield. Behind the mask, she is still that little girl looking for va
