LOGINLeona"You must be Stellan's Luna," Sybilla beamed, moving toward me. I was rooted to the spot, unable even to blink, as she took my hand in both of hers like we were old friends. Her skin was warm — unnaturally so, a low heat that hummed against mine, as if something lived just under it. "I don't know how I'll ever repay you for what you've done for us. I'm truly grateful — for all your support, for standing by Stellan and holding my place while I was away."I had never in my life been at a loss for words, but now my throat went dry, and I couldn't speak. There was no mockery in her voice, no bitter undertone. She meant it. Every single word. Her sincerity caught me completely off guard. I knew how to handle bullies, sly foxes, snakes in the grass — but how was I supposed to handle a woman who genuinely believed I'd stood by her beloved's side out of nothing but a contract and a kind heart?She didn't know me. I didn't possess that kind of heart. But that not-so-pure heart was bleedi
LeonaThe next few months passed at the speed of light — and, honestly, they were the best months of my life. Stellan and I grew inseparable, and everything with him was smooth, easy, joyful: the way we led the pack, and the way we were with each other behind closed doors. With him, every single day felt like a honeymoon. Which should have been my first warning. In my experience, life doesn't hand you months like that for free — it runs a tab, and it always, always comes to collect.So when I dashed into our bedroom that morning to grab the documents I'd reviewed the night before, already late for a meeting, I stopped dead and gasped.The room was drowning in roses and balloons — red and white. A pile of gift boxes sat beside the bed, and Stellan stood over them like he'd been waiting all morning."Happy birthday, Luna."Tears pricked the corners of my eyes, and I was immediately furious at myself. So many years I'd survived on spite and sharp elbows, and here I was, undone by balloon
Leona My jaw dropped the moment we arrived at the resort. Stellan had reserved a three-bedroom villa with a private pool and beach access, and the resort itself was like a small romantic city — restaurants, bars, clubs, and parks all on its grounds. I stared at an exotic pink flower the size of my head and started flipping through the activity booklet I'd grabbed off a table. Strong arms wrapped around me from behind, and Stellan pressed a kiss to my shoulder. "Penny for your thoughts," he teased. "Nothing special. Just seeing what there is to do," I said calmly — as if his hands on me weren't already lighting a fire I'd have to pretend later I hadn't felt. "I've got a couple of ideas," he murmured against my ear, his hands sliding down to brush my stomach. "So do I." I turned and pointed at the page. "Swimming with dolphins. Diving the coral reefs. And tomorrow morning, the whales." Stellan's face fell. "At four a.m.? Are you serious?" "It's the best time to see them. Or wha
Stellan"Don't touch my sister with your filthy hands," I growled.My chest heaved, my blood boiling. If Leona hadn't planted herself in front of the bastard, I'd already have punched that smug face.I grew up with Garrison. My best friend — more like a brother. He'd seen Emiliya in diapers before she could even walk, and now he had the nerve to suck her face like a starving man? Out of all the thousands — millions, billions, Goddess knows how many — she-wolves in the packs he chose my little sister to toy with?"Brother, calm down," Emiliya squeaked, peeking over Leona's shoulder while shielding Garrison with her own slender frame. Fantastic. Both my women — my sister and my mate — protecting a massive Beta like he was made of glass."Stop hiding behind women, you coward," I yelled. Leona narrowed her eyes at me.Garrison tried to step toward me, but Emiliya wrapped her arms around him, and he couldn't move without shoving her aside.Unshed tears gathered in the corners of her eyes,
StellanLeona had heard me talking to Dayana. I needed to clear the air. But Garrison and Brian were already walking into my study, and after them, the meetings ran back to back to the end of the day. The conversation would have to wait."Damn it, Alpha. You lucky bastard." Brian dropped into the chair across from me, grinning. "Your Luna isn't just smoking hot and a badass warrior — she's sharp with the ledgers, too." His eyes found the red marks on my neck. "And wild, apparently."Skoll puffed his chest like Brian had handed him a trophy. I said nothing. I knew all of it. That was the problem. Every word was true, but she was not mine to keep."I'd prefer you didn't speak about my mate that way." It came out lower than I meant it to. Brian's eyes went wide. I'd never snapped at him before."Easy, you possessive animal." Garrison, smoothing it over. Then, quieter: "Jokes aside — she's incredible. Even your mother praises her, and you know how rare that is. So why haven't you marked h
StellanI prepped on the elbow looking at sleeping Leona. Her dark hair was scattered around pillow, full lips slightly parted, long eyelashes slightly trembling. In her sleep she looked like an angel, not like sharp-tongue fierce she-wolf she was.My gaze travelled lower, to her longue neck, strong square shoulders and too firmed full breasts, perfectly sculpted abs…rest was covered by sheets. But last night I leaned every inched of her body, so I knew what cover is hiding- perfect round ass, strong long legs and the sweetest pink pussy. I was already rock hard just looking at her.“Mark her!” Urged me Skoll, make her forever ours.I did not reply. I grew tired already to repeat as a broken record that I could not do it. I promised myself to Sybilla. And even my heart was aching for Leona and part of me felt guilty for taking her without giving her anything in return, but she knew. We were adults and she knew the deal. It was her choice to cross the line.“She was in heat, bastard! W
Curiosity peaked, and I bolted out to find Alpha Caleb and see what was going on. But before I could reach the doorknob to exit the packhouse, a strong hand grabbed my wrist and spun me around."Babe, it's not safe out there," Erik said, his voice laced with concern."Shouldn't you be worrying abou
I grabbed my silk robe and tied it swiftly."And why shall we postpone our mating ceremony?" I asked sternly, crossing my arms.Erik was dressing with such speed you’d think the room was on fire. "Baby, please understand. Rose is sick. She has Moonshade disease. Have you ever heard of it?" His voic
“I hope you do not mind Rose coming with us. I want my sister and mate to become friends,” Erik announced, opening the passenger door for me.But Rose chimed in before I could step toward it. “I am sorry, but I feel so sick in the back. The motion makes my head spin. Could I please take the passeng
Erik mumbled to Rose, holding her like she was the most precious thing in the world. “You’re so pale. I will take you to the infirmary.”“That won't be necessary. Luna Mia can handle it,” barked Erik’s father. His voice was a whip of authority, slicing through Erik’s panicked haze.Luna Mia stepped
