SloaneOn Sunday, Grandpa Waylon and Grandma Judith spend time convincing me that I need to come to their pack next weekend.“It’s the only fair way to make a decision, Sloane. I want to show you around, I want to give you access to the financial ledgers and pack data so you know what you would be getting yourself into.”I look at Will, wanting his input.“Your grandparents have a good point, Sloane. You can’t make a good decision without having all the facts. Take Scarlet with you. Hell, take Slade AND Scarlet with you. Let them be your eyes and ears around the pack, hearing things that might not be said in front of you or your grandparents. Scarlet is great at getting the inside scoop on things.”When I asked my grandparents if it was okay to bring them with me, they agreed quickly, just excited that I was willing to go.“It’s not a yes,” I clarified.“But you are taking this offer seriously and that’s all I want, Sloane. This is your birthright. I want to leave my pack to you," Gran

SloaneOnce Aisling put it into my head, I couldn’t get the idea that maybe this was the Moon Goddess’ compromise for us not getting a white wolf out of my head. I’d be the first ever, that I know of, female Alpha. Yeah, it would be an uphill climb, but what hasn’t been? I’m used to fighting my way through just about every situation. What’s one more fight?And maybe that’s why I’ve had to fight so much in my life. Maybe the Moon Goddess was preparing me for this moment in my life.So, when Slade, Scarlet, and I arrived in Grandpa Waylon’s pack Friday evening, it was with the idea to assess this pack as if it were going to be mine.The first thing I realized is that I have no intention of keeping the current Beta and Gamma. Not only were they part of the problem in my high school before they graduated two years ago, but the Beta and Gamma families have become complaisant over time, basically hanging out and not doing any work from what I could see. Because my grandfather isn’t strong en

BenedictMonday morning, the buzz around the school is Scarlet’s birthday party. As a Beta turned Alpha female, and someone that a lot of people like, most of the males in the school were hoping to be mated to her.I’m not part of Scarlet’s inner circle, so I wasn't invited to her party, but from what I heard, she did not find her mate. However, she apparently didn’t expect to either, so she wasn’t disappointed.Most everyone who was at her party last night is exhausted today in school. I also heard the party changed dates from Saturday to Sunday to accommodate ‘everyone’. Since I know how close Scarlet and Sloane are and that both of them were in Alpha Waylon’s pack Friday night, I assume Sloane was the ‘everyone’ that Scarlet was accommodating.‘What is she wearing?’ Marrok asks, his tone on the verge of a growl. Since he rarely pays attention in school unless it has to do with Ellis, Sloane, Slade, or Bethany, my head snaps up to see what he’s looking at.Sloane never dresses to try

SloaneWhen I look around, waving goodbye to Slade, I expect to see my Grandfather Waylon waiting for me. Instead, I see Daniel.“Hey, Daniel!” I say, smiling and skipping over to him.I swear I hear a snarl from somewhere in the parking lot, but when I look, I don’t see anyone.“What was that?” he asks, taking my bookbag from me.“I have no idea. Who knows around here. Did you get my things from Uncle Roman?”“I did. I’m ready if you’re ready.”When we get to the packhouse, the entire pack is buzzing about Benedict’s party tomorrow. They’re calling it The Party of the Century.Exaggerate much?Since I couldn’t care less, I put my things in my room, then spend the evening with Grandpa Waylon going over the pack’s information.The first half of Saturday is exactly the same except the excitement is even more intense today. All morning, I see girls with their hair up in curlers. As the day goes on, those same girls have their hair in extravagant updos or curls that are hair sprayed to wit

Benedict“Thank you for coming,” I say to her. “You look ...”I’m honestly at a loss for words. I’ve never seen Sloane like this. I’m not sure that any woman has made me want them like I want her at this moment.“Uncomfortable? Like my feet are being pinched? Like I don’t want to be here?” she offers in her typical snarky Sloane way.“Stunning.” I say, meaning it. She is absolutely the most stunning woman I’ve ever seen in my life.‘And she smells good too,’ Marrok adds. Interesting.“Will you join me?” I ask, offering her my arm.She shakes her head and looks so utterly defeated that I could kill my mother.“Maybe I should just go.”“Please stay.”“Why?” she whispers.“You got all dressed up. You’re here. It’s my birthday and I want you here. Please?” I say, offering my arm again.“People will talk,” she says, putting her arm through mine.“Oh, they most definitely will,” I say, walking her into the room. “No one has ever seen you looking like this. I’d tell you that you look amazing,
