OliviaThe brilliant blue ocean almost seemed to glitter underneath the warm Mediterranean sun as Nathan and I stepped out of the airport, breathing in the sweet tropical air. A refreshing breeze ruffled my sundress and hair, instantly filling me with a boost of energy after the long flight.“Ahh… isn’t this perfect?” Nathan murmured as he wrapped an arm around my waist, pulling me close. His fingers trailed lightly over the nape of my neck in a way that never failed to make me shiver. “So warm and sunny compared to home. I could get used to this, Liv.”I laughed a bit, leaning into him. “Me too,” I mused. “I plan to spend every minute either sunbathing on the beach or gorging myself on fresh olives and pasta. Maybe both at the same time.”Nathan grinned roguishly. “You deserve it. You are eating for two now, after all.” His hand trailed down to rest on my belly, which was finally beginning to ‘pop’ these days.I smirked and placed my hand over his. “Well, if you insist…”As we made o

OliviaStepping off the plane and inhaling the brisk pine-scented air felt instantly rejuvenating. As much as I adored island life, it felt good to be home. Nathan wrapped an arm securely around my shoulders, pulling me close as we crossed the arrival gate together.“Just because the honeymoon’s over doesn’t mean the romance has to end,” he murmured, nuzzling that sensitive spot beneath my ear in a way that never failed to make me shiver, as if an electric current had just run up my spine.I tilted my face up towards his, sighing contentedly when his warm, soft lips met mine. When we finally pulled apart, I kept my arms tightly wound around his torso, my ear pressed against his chest as we waited for Angela and Levi to arrive.“You’re not allowed to get distant and broody on me again, you hear?” I mumbled into his sweater. “No matter how stressful Alpha politics become, don’t let us fall back into our old routines…”Nathan let out a sigh of annoyance, although it was more amused than

OliviaI traced random patterns across my rounded belly as I waited in the clinic room, hoping to soothe my restless heart as it pounded in my chest. I knew I shouldn’t be so anxious for a routine prenatal checkup, but I couldn’t help it.“Nathan should be here,” I muttered to myself as I stared absentmindedly at a poster depicting a womb and ovaries, with little labels on each part.I let out a soft sigh as my words were met with no response, because I was, of course, alone—aside from my wolf, who merely rumbled in agreement in the back of my mind.Today, Nathan was at his first Alpha association meeting. I had been a little sad when I found out that he wouldn’t be here to hear our baby’s heartbeat for the first time, but it wasn’t as if we had much of a choice. The doctor was fully booked this time of year, and there was absolutely no passing up his first meeting.Plus, after all of the hard work we had all put into getting him on that association to begin with, there was no way in

OliviaThe imposing iron gates of Dan’s sprawling estate swept open, allowing our car to drive up the winding driveway to the front doors. My breath caught in my throat as I took in the sprawling columned veranda and flickering lanterns that dotted the finely sculpted gardens, which somehow still seemed verdant and lush despite the January weather.“Wow,” I breathed as I peered out the windshield at the multi-story brick home, which looked as if it had been taken right out of a scene depicting a manor in the English countryside. “This place is beautiful.”“Sure is.” Nathan leaned forward from the driver’s seat, following my gaze as he guided the car along the pebbled driveway. He let out a low whistle as he took in the towering cupolas. “I think I prefer our little villa, though.”I grinned. “So do I.”We pulled up to the front door, where a row of other cars was parked. Each one seemed to be more expensive than the last, from foreign sports cars to electric vehicles that must have co

OliviaMy heels clicked loudly on the marble floors as I walked up to Nathan and the leggy blonde who was perched provocatively on the arm of his chair.“Nathan,” I said, “can I talk to you for a moment?”Nathan lifted his gaze to meet mine, and there was a look of surprised innocence in his blue-green eyes. “Of course, love,” he said with a soft smile. “We were just discussing a few financial ventures I’m considering investing in for the pack, but it can wait.”“I see,” I said stiffly, my gaze drifting over to the concubine. Her green eyes flashed as she looked at me, and with a flip of her blonde hair over her shoulder, she rose and sauntered off.Once we were alone, I exhaled tightly. No way was I going to cause a scene here, but the territorial glare that that woman had shot me raised my hackles.“What did you want to talk about?” Nathan asked.“Not here,” I hissed. Taking his hand, I pulled him up out of the chair a bit more roughly than I intended and pulled him down a nearby ha
