Dr John Watson

****** “Do I truly have no effect on you, Delia?” Rafe’s voice was low and husky as he slowly drew her into his embrace. His fingers trailed down the curve of her spine, igniting a spark that sent a shiver racing through her body. As she sucked in her breath, unable to tear her gaze away from him, he leaned in closer, his lips grazing the sensitive skin of her neck. “Does this not feel good?” he murmured, his warm breath fanning her damp skin. Delia remained silent, unable to form a coherent response as he trailed his mouth to hers, slowly capturing her lips in a searing kiss. ******* Delia Scott is seeking refuge from her troubled past on the tranquil shores of St. John, unaware that the moment she steps foot on the island, her fate is sealed. She is the destined mate of Raphael “Rafe” Donovan—the enigmatic and formidable Alpha of the Nightclaw Pack, one of the largest Coastal Wolves Pack. Rafe, rules with an iron fist and works tirelessly to maintain the delicate balance between the humans and werewolves that reside in St. John. After years of believing his fated mate was nothing more than a lost dream, Delia’s arrival changes everything. And now that he’s found her, he will stop at nothing to keep her by his side. As their destinies collide, Rafe and Delia find themselves ensnared in a tempest of desire and longing, each grappling with the depths of their emotions. But beneath the sun-drenched paradise, a sinister threat looms, waiting to tear them apart. And when a third player enters the game, questions arise—Is Delia truly meant for Rafe, or was she never his to claim?

Sieben Jahre Ehe. Maximilian von Falken behandelte sie kalt wie Eis, doch Clara begegnete ihm stets mit einem Lächeln. Weil sie ihn zutiefst liebte. Sie glaubte, eines Tages sein Herz erwärmen zu können. Doch alles, was sie erntete, war seine bedingungslose Liebe zu einer anderen Frau, die er mit allen Mitteln beschützte. Verzweifelt kämpfte sie weiter um ihre Ehe. Bis zu jenem Tag – ihrem Geburtstag. Sie war tausende Kilometer gereist, um ihn und ihre Tochter im Ausland zu besuchen. Er aber nahm ihre Tochter mit, um jene andere Frau zu treffen, und ließ sie allein im leeren Haus zurück. Da starb endgültig etwas in ihr. Als ihre eigenhändig großgezogene Tochter verlangte, die andere Frau solle ihre Mama werden, brach Clara das Herz. Sie setzte die Scheidungsvereinbarung auf, verzichtete auf das Sorgerecht und ging ohne einen Blick zurück. Von da an kümmerte sie sich nicht mehr um Maximilian und Tochter, sondern wartete nur noch darauf, dass die Scheidung vollzogen würde. Sie gab die Familie auf und kehrte zu ihrer Karriere zurück. Die einst von allen verachtete Frau verdiente mühelos ein Milliardenvermögen. Doch sie wartete und wartete – die Scheidung wurde nicht nur nicht vollzogen, der Mann, der früher nie nach Hause wollte, kam plötzlich immer häufiger zurück und klammerte sich immer fester an sie. Als er erfuhr, dass sie die Scheidung wollte, drängte der sonst so vornehm-kalte Mann sie in eine Ecke: „Scheidung? Das kommt nicht in Frage. “

At 7am on the dot my alarm rings on my nightstand. After a brief moment of irritation I sprung out of bed to get ready for school. While brushing my long curly ember hair my phone dings incessantly on the bathroom counter. After picking up the phone the dread I already felt in my heart was amplified. It was my best friend Jesse wishing me a happy birthday but I for the life of me couldn’t understand what an 18 year old girl had to be happy about. When a woman turns 18 she is mated for life, she’d be made to quit school, produce children and satisfy their mates every need and urge. That’s all a woman was good for in this town and I’d be damned if I was going to sit down and shut up about it. After ignoring Jesse I finished dressing and strolled down stairs where my mother and father were still having their morning meeting with their subordinates. Alfa John and Luna Kate or not, I’d doubt they’d even notice I was leaving if I hadn’t slammed the door on my way out. I wonder if they were disappointed by my lack of interest of the ways of the pack or if they were just disappointed I didn’t have a penis between my legs. Regardless, I have no intention on going to my mating ball tonight. My parents have invited every male in our pack but there’s no way I was going without a fight! As I lift my fingers from the door handle I come to an abrupt stop eye to eye with my fathers beta Josh. In a low growl all I hear is “You didn’t think you could actually leave did you?”

I used to be the one and only girl spoiled by my family. But everything changed on my 18th birthday, when my father adopted a she-wolf orphan named Sophia from the Werewolf Charity House. My elder brother, Alex, started to love her more and began to look down on me. My mate, John, who had grown up with me, liked her and ignored me. Even my father said that Sophia, an orphan, was ten thousand times better than his own birth daughter. It was my graduation day from Werewolf University. But instead of celebrating with me, they broke their promise because of Sophia.The 101st time. I counted. And it hurt worse than all the hundred before. I couldn't help crying out, "Am I really part of this family?" My father looked at Sophia—whose eyes turned red because of my words—with pity. Then he slapped me across the face. "You're still fighting for affection? I wish I had never given birth to you," he shouted. Alex snapped at me too. "You make me sick. I'm ashamed to have a sister like you. Get out of this den!" I didn't say a word. I simply packed up my things and left in silence. After I left, the den fell into a strange quiet. They took Sophia to the South Pole to see penguins, as if nothing had happened. No one contacted me or showed concern, because they assumed I would eventually come back—just like before. They never planned to do anything for me. They never had. But this time, they didn't know I was leaving for real. I called my mother, who lived in another pack far away, and told her I'd finally agreed to go live with her. Because this time, the family… Was no longer a place I needed.
