"I think that everyone here should have the decency to give my parents a choice in the matter. One of which is Standing outside, and he can mind link the other, or we could just call her. Besides, you do all realize that my father is Alpha Lawrence's top warrior, he would be losing him as well as the land." "Elenor, your father has told me that when Colin takes over, he is going to retire along with George and myself. Tim or Logan will be taking over as top warrior since you will be Luna. I was hoping to have you take that spot, but Tim and Logan have proved themselves worthy." I knew that Alpha Lawrence watched us train but no one, including my own father told me that it was a test for next top warrior, or that he was retiring for that matter. "No disrespect Alpha Lawrence, but I am not sure I will be Luna of our pack as I have already stated. If I do however take that position, I will still be able to be top warrior. I'm far more qualified than most of the males in our pack

I am pulled out of my thoughts about Shane when Brandon playfully starts to push me out of his car. I only now realize that we are at my parents' house. Which I guess is no longer part of our pack. I really don't know how I feel about that yet. Especially because I don't know Shane's intentions with them or myself. "Oh, my Goddess Elenor!" My mother runs out of the house and down the driveway throwing her arms around me. She starts crying and I can't help but to laugh. "I'm ok mom, I promise! Alpha Shane and his Beta Brandon here took very good care of me." I nod over to Brandon who is now waving awkwardly at my mom, smiling. "Don't you ever run away like that again. If you are hurt you come to me do you hear me!" She wipes her tears with the back of her hand. "Well, it was actually Leia who ran away. She was so hurt that she wasn't thinking and blocked me out while running as fast as she could away from Colin." The memories come back to both of us and Leia cries out in my

We both just laugh a little and Colin takes me by surprise when he plants another kiss onto my lips. We get off the ground and he stands behind me so that my back is against his chest. His arms wrap around me pretty much showing me off to the pack. "Goddess, he's perfect!" Leia purrs into my head. "Geeze, a couple of kisses and a smile and you're lovestruck!" Leia flicks her tail up and turns away from me. I giggle at her tantrum and she lets off a low playful growl. I'm so glad we have each other again. Colin explains to everyone that we are mates and that we have already finished the mating and marking process. I can sense his pride through our bond. There isn't even an ounce of uncertainty which makes me feel so good. It is extremely awkward obviously, but equally important for our pack to know. When an Alpha has been mated and marked, he becomes stronger and more powerful for when he steps into leadership. With basically being only half a soul until you find your mate,

I get up and go to my bathroom hoping he will be in there with no luck. My mind starts racing to all the possibilities. I just can't let him break my heart again, not after the morning we just shared and the promises he made. I pace back and forth trying to not panic when my door quietly opens and in walks Colin with a tray of food and flowers on it. Seeing me pace and the look on my face he sets the tray down in a hurry and grabs my face. "What's wrong Ellie?" He is clearly nervous and probably thinks someone has died with how I am acting. "I woke up, you were gone, I thought, I thought that you--." I can't even finish the sentence. He realizes what I was thinking and pulls me in as tightly as he can. "I am not going anywhere Ellie." He steps back but only slightly so that we can see each other. He keeps his grip on my arms. "My heart is yours and yours alone. I want to be the one that makes you smile and the one that wakes up and falls asleep next to you every day. You ar

“Alpha Shane! What are you doing in my room?!” I try to look anywhere but the shirtless, tattooed, beautiful specimen of a wolf in front of me. “I thought I would personally welcome you back into my pack, even if it’s just for the weekend. I see you brought dresses, I’m very interested in seeing them on you, or off. That’s to be decided, by you of course.” He gets off the bed and glides over to me, handing me the rose, kissing the corner of my mouth and walking out, closing the door behind him. UGH! That man! He is so frustrating. Why can’t I keep my composure around him? I swear he’s like a witch or something and puts me in a trance every time I’m near him. I’m with Colin and we are in such a good spot right now, I can’t be the one that messes that up. There is NO way that I’ll be able to take a nap so I text Colin instead. Me: I made it to the pack house. I am in my room, alone.Colin: Good, what time is the dinner again?Me: Not for another hour and forty-five minutes. It
