Chapter 101

Maverick POVI was knuckles deep inside my mate. Her juices were all over my hand, branding me as hers.I swear whatever’s making that sound will lose every limb it has. I don’t care what it is!I tried not to growl or look annoyed. I didn’t want her to worry. The whole point of tonight was to get her mind off things“Wait here, Wildcat. I’ll check it out.”She sat up.“I’ll be right back, Odessa.”“But—”“I love having my trusty omega by my side, but I think I can handle a squirrel.”“Are you sure? You’re so scared of heights that the squirrel might use that to its advantage and come at you from the sky.”“Very funny, Odessa.” I hurled a pillow at her.I darted out of the bedroom, knowing I had ten seconds before she got dressed and followed me.The second I got downstairs, I caught a blend of wolf scents.“Damn it.”I walked out of the front door. The scent was stronger.“A group of she-wolves,” I murmured.It was a Thursday night, there’s no reason for them to be roaming around her

Chapter 102

Odessa POVI grabbed my forehead and battled the urge to faint. My vision blurred, and my hearing failed me.“I reject this challenge!” Maverick roared.“You can’t do that, Alpha Maverick,” Sofia protested.“What the hell are you talking about? I’m not going to allow this.”I reached out for support. Evyn grabbed me to steady me.“Relax, Odessa. I can’t believe her.”I couldn’t believe all these people didn’t want me to be Luna.“Normally, but this has the makings of an uprising. There are too many pack members involved now. It’s become a legitimate challenge,” Sofia added.Maverick’s gaze found mine. The fury in his eyes matched the intensity of the mate bond.“This doesn’t make any sense,” Darius commented.“Of course, it makes perfect sense,” Rune’s mother, Pearl, said.She’d been quiet for the entire ceremony.“Rune recognises the omega is an ill fit to be Luna. She’s a murderer,” Pearl scorned.“It was in self-defence and everyone knows it! Trevor kidnapped me,” I burst out.“Run

Chapter 103

Odessa POV“You can’t get rid of Rune,” I murmured.“I can.”“I don’t want you to have that image. Just let me do this.”“Do you want us to be ripped apart? Is that what you want, Odessa?”“I didn’t say that.”“Is being Luna too much for you?” He yelled, throwing his arms in the air.“It sounds like you don’t think I can do this. Maybe I am just a worthless omega to you.”“What the fuck?”“You always treat me like I’ll break at any turn.”“I can’t do with you right now!”The door to his office flew open. Storm and Gage strolled inside.“You two can’t be arguing right now. You need to leave immediately,” Storm said.“This is exactly what that little rat wants. Think about it,” Gage added.Too late. My eyes were watering, my limbs trembled, and my stomach was in knots.“You guys are right,” Maverick sighed. “Mate, let’s go home.”“You heard what the council said. We can’t be together right now.”“That’s not going to stop me from holding you tonight.”I released a shaky breath. I followe

Chapter 104

Maverick POV“Another one,” I said, shoving the glass forward.“You need to stop drinking. We’ve got another game this weekend. Our season’s in jeopardy. The Daciana Devils could steal,” Gage said.“We can’t lose to them two years in a row. That’s disastrous. Before we know it, people will be campaigning for Ryder for Alpha,” Storm added.I turned to him and growled.He raised his hands in surrender. “Stranger things have happened.”“I can’t think about football right now. I hate my fucking bed. Everywhere I turn, I feel like I’m going to see her, but I don’t. It’s like she’s haunting me.”“Come on, it’s like you don’t know where she is. You’re having her followed,” Gage said.I growled. “I don’t want the whole pack to know!”The guys chuckled. They didn’t know how hard it was to fall asleep last night in an empty bed. I woke up before the sun and ran around the pack.I ran into a few locals, and they told me how safe it made them feel knowing the Alpha was around, personally patrolli

Chapter 105

Odessa POV“The weather forecast didn’t say anything about rain!”It was after ten at night, and it was raining cats and dogs.The only other person I could call to get me was Maverick, and we’d been banned from being together.“Am I going to get sick because of the council?”The shelter had closed, I couldn’t stay here.“Shoot,” I said.The rain poured mercilessly. I’d already made up my mind about not going back to Evyn’s house. I didn’t want to bother my mother because she had a lot on her plate with Barnette still being in a coma.I fished out my phone for the first time that night. I was shocked to discover over a dozen messages from unknown numbers, each of which had a link.I frowned. “This is how people get hacked.”I stood there getting wet as I scanned the messages. I found one that had more than just a cryptic link.“Your mate’s getting frisky,” the text read with a random thirsty emojis at the end.“What?” I whispered.Against my better judgment, I clicked on the link, an

Chapter 106

Maverick POV“Dude, what are you doing here?” Someone nudged me.I growled. “What?”It felt like my entire football team was standing on my back. I hauled myself off the ground.I looked up to see three guys staring at me.“Alpha Maverick!”“No way.”“Did you get drunk, man?”“No,” I rubbed the back of my head. “Where am I?” I asked.One of the guys fished out his phone and started recording me. I flashed my wolf at him. He sighed and put his phone back in his pocket.He can’t post material of anyone showing their wolf. It was against the pack laws.“You’re at the Daisy Den,” the buzz cut guy replied.I hated this park.“Oh, Odessa.” I yanked myself up off the ground.It all came back to me. Rune, the bar, the drug. That crazy bitch.She managed to undress me to a certain extent. That’s why my shirt was ripped down the middle. She didn’t act alone. The room she forced me into was crowded with other women.“This is grounds for banishment,” I mumbled.“Alright, Alpha Maverick’s banishin
