Underwater 59 What She Saw And Why
"May I speak freely, Alpha," She requested Ethan's permission, and he nodded."I will not take offence. Yes, you may," Ethan replied assuringly, and she swallowed, took a deep breath and exhaled before she could continue."There are certain things money can't buy, Alpha, and love and companionship are some of those things. You can pay people to stay with you, but they will never be companions like people that choose to be with you. I have been silent for many years now; not because I wanted to but because I was in a fight I could not win. I am a nobody; I am sure you know that by now, so I could be easily trampled on. Levi was all I had. I loved him with all my heart. There was nothing he would ask of me that I wouldn't have done for him. My love ran that deep.He was supposed to be my happy ending, but then Alpha Cain died, and he started spending time with his grieving widow and her sons. People warned me that she would entice him with money and power. She had it all to give, bu
Underwater 60 Sounds Like A Plan
Agnes was shocked by the decisions the brothers made. She wasn't expecting that they would decide that quickly; she also wasn't expecting Levi would come clean. She looked at Levi with tears, and her mouth quivered."I loved you with all my heart, and you know it. To leave me for a woman that treated you like shit and made you compete with a dead man is wrong and cruel, Levi. She will never love you like I will. She will never give you what you want. You want a home, but Amber will never give you that. She has nothing to offer because she gave it all to Cain," she said, tears streaming down her face.Levi looked at Amber, where she lay peacefully on the hospital bed, then at Agnes."Amber gave me everything and much more, Agnes. I was never competing with Cain where she was concerned. I have a family and two wonderful men I am proud to say I helped raise. I might not be their biological father, and they might not bear my last name, but they are still my sons, regardless. You know what
Underwater 61 At The Mansion
Levi was reluctant to go to Amber's office and report to the new luna of Whitewood, but he knew he needed to divert Cynthia's attention from their plans. He would rather be in the hospital with Amber. Unfortunately for him, they had a plan, and he needed to follow through.Getting to Amber's office, Levi knocked on the door, and Cynthia's voice came through, permitting him to enter the office. Levi opened the door and found the so-called Luna sitting on the couch in the office. Cynthia looked at him and smiled."Alpha Levi, welcome," she said, pointing at the visitor's chair in front of the desk. "Turn it around and face me, Alpha," She ordered, unwilling to sit behind the desk.Levi did as she requested and looked at her, awaiting his orders."Congratulations," She said, and he could not smile. There was nothing to be grateful for; even if she couldn't see it, he knew it."By now, you are done with the McClouds. See how quickly they turned on you. So much for putting family first. T
Underwater 62 Building A Bridge
Two weeks have passed since Cynthia took over the mansion. Amber's health had deteriorated faster than predicted, and the brothers were yet to make headway. Their friends and workers were still locked up, and Cynthia was unwilling to negotiate their release. It was a bad situation, but they kept pushing through. Joseph finally got through to Alpha Malcolm after so many attempts. The man answered the phone as if it was an expected call. "Joseph, I am very happy to hear from you," Alpha Malcolm said, and Joseph knew things were terrible for the man because he had just broken a person's English rule by using the word 'very' in his sentence. "You mean delighted," Joseph corrected, and the man paused. "That obvious?" He asked, and Joseph laughed. "Yes, it is that obvious, and I believe mine is too. I am the one calling you after all," Joseph said, and Malcolm laughed. "How have you been managing?" Joseph asked him, and Malcom sighed. "Well, things are okay here, but it seems the an
Underwater 63 Completeness
Ethan lay in bed, worried about his friends locked up in the cells of the mansion. He did not understand why Cynthia would do such a thing. They posed no threat to her, but he knew it was her way of making him break. He looked at his wife, who lay peacefully beside him. They had made love and were exhausted and ready to sleep. It had been two weeks of torture living with Cynthia in the mansion, but Ethan had ensured he did not lose time with his wife. He loved her at every opportunity and did not regret it. Ethan knew he was the only reason Meadow had not beaten the hell out of Cynthia. Meadow returned to the room the night Cynthia tried to lock her up, angry and irritated. She told Ethan that she could easily take Cynthia and her goons, but Ethan had pleaded with her to be calm. He did not want her drawing attention to herself, and since Cynthia was just a mere lackey, it would be a waste of surprise. Ethan knew they would soon have the advantage, but he wanted everything ready bef
Underwater 64 Being A Luna
"Welcome back, Echo," Ethan said to his wolf while he lay in bed with Meadow in his arms."Ethan," Echo growled, and Ethan wanted to laugh from the joy of being complete and getting his wolf back."It was hard not being able to come out. I am glad we are back," Echo said, and Ethan agreed."I am glad you didn't scare away our mate, Ethan. I tried to tell you so many times, but you just couldn't feel it, but I am glad now," Echo said, kissing Meadow's head."Mine," he said, and Ethan took the back seat for the first time in seven years to allow Echo to enjoy the feel of holding his mate in his arms. Ethan's mind reeled with the possibilities of what he would do now that he was complete again, but he needed to get his legs working. He needed exercise and training to be able to use his legs again. He looked at his feet and wiggled his toes. They moved. It wasn't a strong movement, but the twitch was there, meaning everything was getting better. Ethan wondered what it would be like shift
Underwater 65 As It Goes
The sun finally came down, and Cynthia was ready to go clubbing. She drank so much, trying to numb her pain and practically slurred her words. She was determined to try her luck with Ivy club this time and hoped to catch the eye of the dashing owner, who was also the manager. She had instructed Meadow to keep her rescue activities out of her wing. She wanted to avoid seeing the released prisoners or knowing what Meadow was doing. Cynthia decided to ask her favourite warrior, who was a Beta, to drive her to the club. When she got there, she did not feel alright, but instead of walking away from the place and going home to sleep off the alcohol in her system, she went into the club. The place was a bit silent when she walked in. Everyone knew what she had done and the position she held now. They didn't like her. She ignored the atmospheric change and headed for the VIP section, but a bouncer obstructed her. His actions confused her, but he did not care. The Gamma breed stood befo
