She took a drink and continued. "The other two packs, both lost men in the latest attempt on your life. My mate declined to pay the money he had agreed to when they supported David's mating to you, since it never happened. As a result, both packs feel betrayed. They fear Doug, but that won't last forever. I talked to their Lunas, both said the Packs are furious the bodies weren't returned, and they blame you."I snorted. "I guess the Alphas weren't real forthcoming with what we told them, then." The two looked surprised.Remi squeezed my leg and spoke up. "After the attack, we suspected your four Packs but didn't know who the wolves were. My husband called your mate and asked if he sent them. He denied it, so we said in an hour we would skin them and throw their carcasses on the trash pile if no one claimed them."Kayla put her hand over her mouth in shock. "And he...""He didn't say shit," I said. "I could tell the other Alphas were not aware of the offer by their reaction to the vid

I smiled, this was better than my plan. "How long will they be tied up?""Thirty minutes, easy, if they don't find anything in the cars. It's a felony stop, they have to run all their records and search the vehicles. They won't be a problem for you. Have a good trip home, Miss Ella.""Thank you." I hung up the phone, Remi was smiling as she could hear both sides of the conversation.We got onto the freeway and soon were in the middle of nowhere again. I was busy checking my phone, I'd gotten a number of messages from Mark and a few made me blush."So, when are you going to tell me?"I looked at her in shock. "Tell you... what?""That you are in love." I blushed hard and looked down. "We know you too well, and you've never been like this with a guy before. What happened last night?""We had sex, Aunt Remi, you KNOW that. I'm sure you smelled it before I even got in the room.""You had sex with him before, but something changed in you last night. Tell me what happened."I went through t

The field was a grassy area behind the Pack House; it sat in a small depression and the challenge circle was outlined by boulders set in the ground. The circle was quickly surrounded as the two Alphas stepped in. The fight was long and bloody, but one sided. Alpha Coleman was not just a stronger wolf, he was out to make him suffer, and he did. In the first minute, he had hamstrung his back left leg. Darting in and out, he slashed his sides and back repeatedly until Scott's fur was coated with his blood. His front left leg was next, his teeth crunching down and breaking the foreleg before tearing it free with a vicious growl. Unable to rise again, Scott tried to fight but it was just a matter of time. Dennis refused to end his suffering, circling him until he bled out in the grass and his eyes closed in death.Alpha Anders gestured for some Pack members to remove the body. "As victor in the challenge, Alpha Coleman is now Alpha of the North Shore pack. If any wish to challenge him for

Sleep eluded me. As soon as I closed my eyes, I saw those bright green eyes. I saw the shock, the anger, and the betrayal in them.And then I saw my mate running away in pain.My entire life I had dreamed of meeting my mate, and in my worst nightmare I would not have imagined what just happened. I sobbed into Remi's sleeping form, she had crawled in with me in the hopes I'd settle down and get some rest. I had poured out my feelings, my disappointment in myself, and my anger until two in the morning and she fell asleep before I could.My life was spiraling out of control, and I had my foot on the gas pedal, speeding it up. What the hell was I thinking? What kind of hormonal slut can't keep her legs closed for a few months? Now I'm knocked up, I've betrayed my mate AND my fiancé, and I have no idea how to get out of the situation I'm in.If I leave Mark, I'm leaving a good man I was falling in love with. A man who is a tender and considerate lover, who has wanted me for years, a man wh

He put his fingers to his nose, pinching it as he thought. "I'd advise you to get a different lawyer if you go that way. Preferably someone with a Pack background, you'll be dealing with both human and werewolf law, potentially.""I understand. Put about a million into the new business as startup capital, no leases longer than a year. I'll advertise for a manager first and let him hire his team. I want this company up and running by spring.""All right, you're the boss here. Just stay safe, Ella. Make sure you hide your involvement in all this, they need to see it as a run of bad luck not an attack, or they'll come after you hard.""Damn right. I don't want them to know who is behind this until they are on their knees before me."*********"I can't believe you're tossing me aside like this." Mark had tears in his eyes as we sat in the back booth at Mel's Diner. Telling him had been as heart-wrenching as I had thought, maybe more."I'm just so conflicted right now, Mark. I can't move f
