I took the wilted bouquet of roses and looked straight at him. "Oh, Carlo. Look at me. Take a good look... Whose wedding do you think this is? This is my wedding. Mine, and I'll be marrying Luca.

My breath catches as I lift the delicate silver crescent moon pendant, memories threatening to overwhelm me.

“This…” Sarah mumbled, breaking the silence. “This is the Crescent pack territory?” She already knew the answer.

How could they just be wiped out like that?!”

It was warming my heart to the core. “She knew well how to take my breath away.” With a smile tugging on my lips, I sighed while shaking my head as I watched her waltz back into the fight.

I was truly fascinated as I couldn’t take my eyes off her while I kept breaking the rogues’ bones whenever they attacked me.

My heart was beating so fast I was sure they could hear it over the low thrum of music. "Gentlemen," Lorenzo began, his voice carrying that smooth authority that made people listen whether they wanted to or not. "I'd like you to meet Ellie Knight." He paused, and I felt his eyes on me even though I was staring at my hands folded in my lap. "She's officially a Black Rose now, under our protection."
