The full moon has risen. It was happening again, the same experience that Lilith had the night of the mating season. A slight feverish sensation made her squirm in discomfort. Lilith wondered how this night was going to go. Katherine even seemed to look a bit uptight now.Blaze was still not back. A soft sigh escaped Lilith's lips as she looked away from Katherine. A faint knock on the front door pierced through the growing tension."It's Blaze," said Katherine with a glance at Lilith before she quickly rushed to get the door. Lilith heard them whispering. After a while, she knew Katherine had gone back to the pack house since she couldn't hear her voice anymore. She was now all alone with Blaze. That single thought brought a frightening yet pleasurable shiver down her spine. Blaming the mate bond, she stared at him as he walked into the room.His eyes narrowed into a glare on Lilith ever so slightly. He was fighting his

Blaze opened his eyes and squinted into the blazing sun-light burning through the last of the morning fog. A tumbled mass of loosely curled long dark hair was spread over half of his pillow. Lilith's enticing scent was woven through the pillowcase, and he'd dreamt of her in the few couple of hours they had slept. Last night was... amazing. He'd silently vowed to bring down her heat. He had to stop his wolf from completing the mating. Either he liked it or not, Bash would have to deal with only having Lilith marked as theirs for the time being. He had put everything in lessening her heat and in keeping his wolf at bay at the same time. He didn't want to overdo things but he hated to admit that he might have overdone it last night.But in his defense, they both had survived the full moon. He would hate it if she regretted what happened last night. Would she be fine after realizing what really happened last night? They were both under the control

Blaze swiftly caught Lilith as she fainted right into his arms. “Lilith?” Blaze shook her unconscious body. He panicked when she simply lay still and unmoving. “Lilith,” Blaze spoke quickly through his breaths, cupping her face in his hands. No response, not even a single muscle of hers reacted. Her body was completely limp, her breaths quiet yet quicker than normal. Anger began to slowly surface as he closely observed her condition. “Dammit Lilith, open your eyes!” Blaze partially begged. No! He needed to control his anger. This wasn’t a time to get angry. “Katherine!” Blaze called out alarmingly. Noting the agitation in Blaze’s voice, Katherine was there within seconds. “Dear lord, what happened to my child?” Katherine quickly reached for Lilith. Blaze reluctantly moved out of her way and handed Lilith over to her. He knew it would best to let Katherine check on her. She would k

“I don’t want to lose you. I’ll make you accept the mate bond between us.” Blaze declared. His voice, deep and gravelly with undisguised want, scraped over her.“Whatever’s happening between us. One minute we’re fighting and the next…” His voice trailed off.“Last night… it wasn’t only your heat or the full moon. There was something else. You can’t deny that feeling, Lilith. You need to accept it.” He murmured into her ear.His breath grazed her ear, sending a shiver down her spine.Blaze’s breath caught when he heard Lilith sniffling.He pulled back with a sad smile to give her some space but there was disappointment in his eyes.“You avoid me, but you care for me… You hate me, but you don’t really hate me. I…I just don’t get it. Do you really feel nothing for me?” He queried.The tears start again and bef

Katherine brought us some food from the pack house, some spicy chicken sandwiches, some French fries, and some lemonade. Raine actually asked her to make these for Lilith since she needed to get better.Blaze didn’t get how a piece of strawberry cake could make Lilith feel better. He didn’t get one. Katherine told him that it was for her and not for him which sucked!They ate their lunch quicker than usual considering it was way past the time they should have eaten something.Blaze finished first, setting his plate on the coffee table and watching her finish off her last couple of bites.There was a difference in the way she was holding herself.He never noticed it until now.Her shoulders were always straight.Whether she was standing, laying or even leaning forward while having food downstairs, her shoulders were always back as if she was always on guard around him.But now as she hovered over her plate, scraping
