Semua Bab The Alpha's Heart - The Nightshade Pack Chronicles (Book 1): Bab 1 - Bab 10

Venus, Melody, and Gabriella met on the first day of university in the admissions office and they became instant friends. Their original stories were that all three of them were orphans who had to make their own way through life. They moved into the same house just off campus which gave them the privacy they preferred under their unique circumstances. Venus had a part-time job as a virtual assistant to pay for her studies, while Melody sold baked goods from home to pay for hers. Everyone in the area loved her food, and the girls often told Melody that she should quit school and start her own bakery. Gabriella’s parents were rich and left her a ton of money after they died, which she could only get on her twenty-fifth birthday. Until that day, her father’s business partner oversaw her trust, and she just had to flutter her eyelashes and remind him that her parents died and he would give her more than her allowance.Venus studied history, and nobody could understand what on earth she wo

Gabriella“Dammit! Has anyone seen my keys?” Melody rushed through the house turning every cushion upside down in the process. Venus was snuggled up to her cup of coffee while Gabriella yawned as she walked out of her room and they both frowned at Melody. “My apartment keys, girls. I’m going to be late!” She squealed as Gabriella walked over to the key holder near the front door and held out Melody’s keys for her. “You are a lifesaver!” Melody squealed. “Your coffee is in the kitchen and I’ve left lunch for the both of you in the fridge. BYE! Wish me luck!” She shouted as she ran out the door as Gabriella walked to the kitchen to grab a cup of coffee.“How’s Bradley?” She grinned and Venus rolled her eyes. Her besties seemed to think something was going on between the two of them, but there was nothing. Bradley would have been the perfect guy if Venus had any feelings for him. He was sweet, kind, and overly generous and loved to show off his assistant at every possible function he had

Gabriella“She’s too stupid to realize!” The man’s eyes turned black, showing that his wolf was near the surface, but his wife knew that he would never harm her. They had been mates since they met the first time at school. She had just transferred here from another pack. She couldn’t believe her luck when he was her mate. Now their entire lifestyle was being threatened by a girl!“Don’t you underestimate her! I still can’t understand why you had to bring her back here! You’ve been running the pack since the day her parents died! Why haven’t you demanded to be declared Alpha already?! Send her back to the life she wants in the city!” She screamed and stormed out of their room.On the other side of the territory, Gabriella was dealing with her own mate problem! Lucienne didn’t seem to leave her alone for one damn second and every time she glared at him, he would smile and tell her to reject him. As if he wanted her to! Maybe that was what he wanted. Maybe he had a little piece on the si

VenusIt wasn’t weird to fly in a private plane because I had been on trips with Bradley. But it was weird to think that the plane now belonged to me. As I sat down and they handed me a glass of champagne, I fought the urge to cry. Bradley and I had so many memories we shared and they were all mostly good. He was sick twice to the point where I had no alternative but to rush him to the hospital, but the rest of the time we were like brother and sister. Hearing that he had left me his entire fortune was such a shock that I swore in front of the lawyer, making the poor woman almost swallow her tongue.I knew Bradley was rich, but when they started going through his portfolio, I nearly swallowed my tongue! When the plane landed, I stepped out and the smell of the ocean hit me right in the back of my nose. I closed my eyes and breathed in deeply. Yeah, I needed this. I needed to get away and clear my head before making any decisions about my future. I wondered if I was richer than Gabriel

Venus Venus really enjoyed her holiday and it had given her some time to make a couple of serious decisions. She was going to give the island to Rosita and the house on the mainland to Rosita’s parents. It didn’t matter what they did with it after that. Venus had already called her lawyers and the paperwork for their signatures arrived first thing in the morning of her last day with an assurance that her lawyer would be there right before she was about to leave. Exactly as she planned it.Venus carefully packed her things and just as her pilot took her bags, Rosita informed her that the lawyer was there. She asked Rosita to bring them something to drink onto the patio. She wanted to sit there one last time and just look out at the ocean while they took care of the business side of things. With the enormous amount of money she inherited, she could holiday anywhere in the world at any time, so giving away the two houses wouldn&r
