Chapter 21 “Say something!” Laurel prompted Earl angrily. He had not said or done anything since the arrival of these men and his silence was no longer sitting well with her, especially since the giant man’s grip on her sister was getting tighter by the minute. She could see his hand pressing tightly against Kristen’s mouth, so much that her eyes were already bulging from their sockets. “Lambert,” Earl began tentatively, his eyes not leaving Laurel’s face. “I have imagined this meeting everyday since the first day I received your note.” Lambert was relieved to hear him say something, for he hated Earl’s silence. He loved to know his enemy’s next move, and he hated silence, especially Earl’s silence. He had fought and conquered many territories, and oftentimes, he did so by knowing his opponent’s next move. But In this case, his enemy was a man of few words, which was one reason he hated physical confrontations with Earl Malory. He preferred to strike from a distance, to leave trai

Chapter 23An endless sea of blackness was all that met her eyes. That darkness, broken only by the soft glow of the moon, only that the moon was split in two halves. She watched as the two equal halves, both with jagged edges facing each other, hung in the sky, both maintaining a great distance apart. The two halves drifted slowly towards each other, occasionally even moving together, Laurel imagined their intention was to come together and become whole. She nearly laughed at the irony of that in her own life, come together and become whole? She had come together with a man, yes. But had they become whole? Hell no. Instead she saw clearly now that they were going to be plagued by several things, several people and her new husband’s Earl’s psychic brother was now out to haunt her. And in Earl’s words, he would not rest until he had her. Long after he left, Laurel stood staring into space, she sat nervously on the edge of the bed, fidgeting with the hem of her dress. Her sister stood

Chapter 25By sunrise the following morning, Laurel had been escorted out of Sacred Moon Pack and was already at New Knights Pack, having been escorted by a host of Earl's trusted guards. Last night's hunt had done her a great deal of good, and her last conversation with her sister greatly improved her mood. But somehow, she found herself disappointed that Earl had not come to escort her to her new home himself as was customary. But Laurel told herself not to think much of it, and she looked forward to not expecting too much from her new mate. The maids treated her well, and so did the several guards that followed her about the yard. Even Gregg managed a smile in her direction each time their eyes met. But Laurel found herself looking with longing about the place for any sign of Earl, but he was nowhere to be seen. When it was evening and she had still not seen nor heard anything about Earl, Laurel got tired of being idle and decided to take a stroll around the yard. But the guards

Chapter 27 Exactly two minutes after he left, Laurel still stood there, too stunned to move. It only took a knock on the door to made her draw her eyes away from the window where she still stood staring into space. When she opened the door, she found Astrid there, watching her with eyes that reflected something, something she could not quite place her hand on. It took her a moment before she stepped away from the door and nodded for Astrid to come in while Laurel continued staring at the window. Astrid said nothing, merely just watching Laurel. "I sent for you well over twenty minutes ago." She said and continued pacing. "Yes. But you had a guest." Laurel stopped and stared at the girl with questioning eyes, but Astrid's eyes held a knowing look, "You knew." She shrugged with a nod, "Yes, I know. What I don't know is what he told you." "Then why didn't you come in to see if I was in danger? Why didn't you alert the guards?" Astrid gave one of those unusually calm smiles, "Lambe

Chapter 29Three days later and Earl had still not returned and from his glory travels. The days slipped by slowly for Laurel and she found herself occupied with women's work to keep her from losing her mind. She would spend the days in the courtyard with the pack women, getting to know them and also giving advice over little quarrels as she was now their Luna. Gregg usually watched her from a distance, not wanting to bore her with his presence or to provoke her like he had done that night at dinner. Even though he knew that Earl's absence was unfair, he also knew there was no way of convincing his friend to come back until he was willing. But just maybe his absence was for the best, as he thought it was, it was to give him ample time to see his new bride's true intentions. Astrid had not said anything more about Lambert killing the silver wolf to Laurel, not even when they spent most of the day together. Even when Laurel asked her, she simply avoided the question and only told her
