All Chapters of Who's Afraid of the Big Bad Wolf?: Chapter 71 - Chapter 75

I had spoken my part quite bluntly, yet could see Mari’s eyes darting nervously between Matthew and me. She seemed clueless as to what was happening. Did she not know how much danger she may be in? Had her friend not explained that to her by now? Truth be told, I could not help but wonder why her own Alpha did not have her packed off on a trip to a safe location the moment he heard that Beta Kian was once more on the loose. But, that was me. The Alpha here seemed to work in completely different ways...I turned my eyes to the upcoming Alpha awaiting his response, yet he seemed reluctant to reply. His eyes were upon the floor. I did not know what to make of the guy. Sometimes he impressed me. So much bolder and more modern thinking than his father. Other times, like this, he seemed like he was scared of me, or perhaps even scared of his own shadow...'Or maybe he is worrying about his friends.' Draven said with a sigh, like he was disappointed at me for not having considered the possib

I stood by the entrance of the packhouse of Eldermoon Pack with an exasperated sigh leaving my lips before I was able to control it, causing Sonny to turn to look at me yet again. “Are you going to chill the fuck out?” he demanded. “We will get going when we get going.

And my terms did not include waiting around for her. She seemed to be taking a lifetime in coming to meet us.We had already been standing on the steps of the packhouse for over fifteen minutes past the allotte

Arriving back to my pack filled me with that same sense of relief it always did. Ever since I had lost Gabrielle home was my safe haven. A place I did not like to leave. Leaving home meant I lost the lingering sense of tiny connection that remained between me and my fallen mate. And, being home meant I had my escape. Reasons not to be seen. I was in charge here and could find others to do everything else for me if I needed my space. Here was mine.‘Where is she staying?’ Hudson asked as we drove along the driveway toward the packhouse. I gave my friend a confused glance, and he motioned with his head toward our guest.I found myself frowning. Truth be told, I had not given it much thought. I had not intended to ever bring the girl home with us. When I had offered help, I had truly thought I could palm her off onto a neighboring pack. They owed me favors.
