ALEXIAfter professing my acceptance to Nash, I was waited on hand and foot.She wolves doted on me getting ready the 'big night' they say, giggling like school girls.I internally vomit with every comment.As they brush my hair and tell me how much the Alpha will love me, I mentally prepare myself for what will be the most disgusting night of my life.True, I used to seek comfort in Nash before. But Luke ruined me for all men. I'll never feel arms like his again. I'll never soften to their touch quite the same. I'll never quiver at the feel of their lips. Nash's touch feels void of all feeling. There is no spark. No life. It fills me with nothing.My body will always cry for Luke's warmth. The electric wave of emotion that courses through my veins at his kiss. I'll never again see lights dance before my eyes as his power and strength consumes my core.If he should see me again, I'll be ashamed. Ashamed I allowed myself to be defiled in this way. The disappointment Luke will feel when

ALEXIMy recovery was slow. I still had numbness in my spine, but each passing day I was feeling more normal.Luke filled in the details of the rescue. It sounded heroic and very dangerous. I slightly scolded him for such a bold effort."One of these days, Alpha, you're going to be too careless." I wag my finger at him.We're sitting in the common room. Luke has been doting on me since I woke up. He hands me a tea and wraps a blanket around my legs."I knew what I was doing. These dogs have more muscle than brains. It was easy." He smirks."Right. It sounded like a war." I laugh."It was a war. I'd fight a thousand guys to get you back." He sat back on the couch. "I almost killed everyone here because I had to wait for their slow asses....""Whatever...." Bobby came in from the dining hall. "If we let you go you would've gotten yourself killed." He sank into the couch across from us.Gavin walked in from his office. "Bastian's on the phone." He handed Luke his cellphone.Luke shakes h

ALEXISince Luke has pretty much decided I'm to be his Luna, I felt I should make my presence known among the other Lunas and Luke's friends. I have a lot to make up for and if we are to be a trusted member of the alliance, I need to offer an olive branch to the people I hurt.After much pestering, Luke finally agreed to let me have a luncheon with his friends and family."Can you move that table a little to left please." I direct the staff helping me set up the tables out in the garden where all the ladies will be.A staff girl presents the menu to me and I look it over. "It's lovely. Thank you." I send her on her way as Luke comes through the French doors."Wow. It's looking pretty fancy out here." He teases, giving me a kiss on my cheek.I breathe nervously. "Yes, well, I want everything to be perfect. This luncheon will be my chance to show your friends that I'm not the horrible monster they think I am.""You're not a monster, Alexi." Lucy comes out to the garden carrying a vase o

LUKEMy heart is beating out my chest. You'd think it was a Luna ceremony or something.For the last 2 weeks, I've been carefully planning everything.The limo, the flowers, dinner all of it. This ball is going to be the best thing to happen to both of us.I stare in the mirror trying to tie my tie. I'm getting frustrated. I don't wear these things.I yank it off with a growl and hang my head trying to control my frustration.Lucy comes to check in. "Hey, big bro." She looks at me as I roll my head to her.She chuckles. "Can't do it, huh?""No. I don't get why we have to wear these stupid things." I whip it out at my side.She turns me around and takes the tie from me. "It just takes practice. You better get used it Mister council member."She flips my collar up. "I'm not wearing a suit to the council meetings. No way."She carefully knots the tie. "You should. It shows responsibility. Dad always wore a suit.""Yeah, well. This is one Alpha that doesn't need a stupid suit to prove he'

LUKEAs much as I'd love to bathe in Alexis sweet love forever, I have work I need to do as Alpha.This includes my first council meeting as the Alpha of Red Rock.I skipped my actual first meeting because I was really not prepared for it at all. Plus, Alexi and I had training at our new Enforcer Station to complete.So. Five months later, I walk in with Alexi to the upcoming council meeting.As we walk, I side eye her. She's dressed in a nice knee high, deep green dress. Her hair is pinned up and she's easily the sexiest Luna here.I kept my promise of no suit. A button-down shirt and jeans is the closest they'll get.I walk into the Council Building in Falcon Ridge with Alexi on my arm. We walk to the oversized double doors. They're open.There's a big plaque stating Council of Alphas now in session hanging on the wall.I look at Alexi. "Ready, Luna?" I give her a quick kiss."Ready, Alpha." She smilesI place a hand on her back and allow her to enter first."Alexi!' Anna waves from
