"You may look like her, but you're not her! Somewhere in this face, I will find my ugly fat princess!" He kissed her hungrily. Slap! "What are you doing?" asked Ruby. "Taking what's mine, Ruby Scarlett!" shouted Eric. "Let go. Struggling, she tried to pull herself away from his grasp. Instead, he embraced her tighter into his arms. He roughly pinched her beautiful face and traced her red lips with his rough hand. His eyes looked at her with longing. Tilting her chin closer to his lips he said, "You're my fiancée, you owe me for everything you put me through!" Unable to hold onto his hunger, Eric grabbed her by the hair and kissed her, shoving his tongue into her mouth. "Mmmph," grunted Ruby. "You're mine!" panted Eric.

She tugged at my boxers pulling them down over my ass, I slid them down my legs to my ankles and kicked them off. My throbbing erection was pressed against her dripping s*x. I kissed her mouth rough and fast, taking her tongue in my mouth and giving her mine. “Are you ready?” I whispered...

It was all so very fast. One second he was talking, the next his head was lying on the floor beside him, detached from his body. She had ticked yet another box in his head. He heard her before he saw her, and he could genuinely say he wasn’t disappointed. She was strikingly beautiful, stunning, in fact. On closer view, he could see that she had a nice body to complement her beauty. For some reason, his wolf was jumping around at the sight of her. Considering his wolf was not a fan of anyone, it was a bit surprising. She stopped directly in front of him with her head bowed in respect to his title. He nodded in acceptance and gestured for her to raise her head. Their eyes met, and he could swear his entire world shook.

Le jour où j'allais accoucher, une meute de loups renégats m'a encerclée. Ils m'ont éventrée et ont réduit mon enfant en lambeaux. Mon compagnon Alpha, Marcus, est devenu fou. Il m'a conduite d'urgence au centre de soins et a ordonné aux guérisseurs de sauver ma vie. « Si quelque chose arrive à ma compagne, vous le paierez de vos vies », a-t-il crié. Alors qu'on me transportait vers la table d'opération, j'ai entendu sa conversation avec son Bêta. « Alpha, ces loups déguisés en renégats ont déjà été relâchés en secret de la Prison d'Argent. » « Tant qu'on obtient sa lettre de pardon, le Conseil des Alphas ne poursuivra pas l'affaire. » « C'est juste que… à la fois Luna et Mlle Céleste portent vos enfants. N'est-ce pas un peu cruel envers Scarlett… » Le ton de Marcus s'est glacé tandis qu'il a lancé un regard d'avertissement à son Bêta. « Scarlett ne peut pas donner naissance à cet enfant ! Mon héritier ne peut naître que de Céleste. Je lui ai promis que son enfant serait l'héritier Alpha. » Son Bêta n'a pas osé contredire, il a seulement contenu son mécontentement. « Mais… il y avait d'autres moyens. On n'était pas obligés de laisser Mlle Céleste engager des renégats pour littéralement déchiqueter l'enfant de Luna… » « La louve de Luna est restée endormie depuis le début de sa grossesse, ce qui l'a privée de ses capacités de guérison. Les guérisseurs disent qu'elle pourrait ne pas survivre. » Marcus est devenu froid, mêlé d'impuissance. « Je ne m'attendais pas à ce qu'ils soient aussi brutaux. » « Monte la garde. Assure-toi que les guérisseurs la sauvent. S'il lui arrive quoi que ce soit, ils savent ce qu'ils risquent. C'est tout ce que je peux faire désormais. Plus tard, je lui offrirai toutes les ressources de la meute en guise de compensation. » Les portes du centre de soins se sont refermées lentement, coupant à jamais mon amour pour Marcus. Quand je me suis réveillée, il ne restait que la douleur lancinante dans mon bas-ventre, et un amas de chair et de sang…
