He spoke slowly in a calming and steady manner. "Did you just arrive here?" he asked. I nodded. He didn't ask any follow-up questions after that. Once I was done treating my wound, he handed me his business card and said, "You can contact me if you run into any issues." His name was Ivan Milazzo. There was just a telephone number written under his name—but no company name, no address, or anything of the sort. I took the card from him, thanked him, and didn't think that we'd meet again.

He frowned, deep in thought, “Ah, I know, how long have you known Sin?” I frowned, “I am not going to talk to you about Sin, it’s weird, but I will answer your question. I have known him a little longer than I have known you.” “Fair enough, I don't really want to hear about him. What is your question?” “What is your full name?” “La…Samuel Sin.” “Bullshit… there is no way your last name is Sin’s name.” What was he about to say? Is his name even Samuel?

Trisha watched James mess around with things. “I know that one of these names is meant to mean something. I just can’t remember where I heard the name before. Keith, can you run this name and tell me what comes from the search?” “What name’s that?” She asked as Keith took the identification card in it’s plastic protective bag. “Henry Gingham. I swear I should know that name, but I can’t place where I heard it or when.” James just couldn’t pinpoint why the name was familiar.

Shmue almost named me squirrel when he noticed Dum glaring at him, so he asked me my name instead. "My name is Nisha Ebony Damore Sir," I said as I introduced myself. Shmue seemed amazed when he heard my name, which made me a little uneasy. "Your entire name means Night, Ms. Damore, it's a fantastic name you have the first time I hear someone's entire name signifies one thing" Shmue commented how beautiful my name is. I was taken aback because this was the second time someone had noticed what my name meant, but I quickly concealed my astonishment and simply smiled at him, "Yes and thank you sir."

“Lady Karin, you and I both know Sir Ansel was born for this role. So much so that destiny skipped Sir Edwin and gave its favorites on him. Have faith that the rest of Blue Moon as well, but most importantly, have faith in Sir Ansel. He needs it from you the most.” “You’re right,” I reply, giving him a warm smile. “I won’t allow them to ruin my day.” “Good.” I stared at him for a moment. “Is there anything else the matter?” “Why doesn’t anyone call you Charles? I mean, after all, it is your name.” He scrunched his face as if in thought. “You know, I’ve never thought about it before. I guess because Alpha David never has and other sort of just followed suit. I suppose I’ve grown used to it.”

Everyone around the room was eagerly waiting to know Akshara’s name. Ruko urged Nail to speed up her conversation, “Quick… complete your words, Nail” Nail revealed, “Axe” The word AXE was echoed around the room and Akshara talked to herself, “Axe! Is that my name… why did I name after the tool?” Nail paused for a while and continued her translation of bird’s language, “Wait, they are telling the short form of your name… you are Akshara on the whole, they say.”

The two other policemen with him stand behind him and force their hands straight as though they are under a parade. “Jane, Jane Atwood” I say. I don’t know the surname to tell him and since he has a weird name, it’s not so bad that I give him an even weirder one. Atwood is the name of one of the Sentinels in my pack then. That is the weirdest name I could think about. “Okay”’ he says and opens his arms as though I haven’t answered him completely. Wait! Is he waiting for my middle name as well?

How dare they? Calm down, Fia. Don't show weakness unless there's a reason. Recalling my father's teachings, I closed my eyes and took a deep breath. “What’s with the names? You guys named after virtues or something?” I glared at Bravo, who wasn’t named after a virtue. More like his personality. But the others were Honour, Moral, and Kelly. Kelly grunted, but that was the only response I got. “What’s your story?” Bravo asked, his lip curling.

Mate bonds do give that relentless power, like fanning the flame even brighter, even if you simply exchange glances with your mate. I was still staring at him when his amber eyes locked into mine. And a smile formed on his lips, my heart just skipped a beat just by his smile. "By the way, my name is Aeonix, but everyone calls me Nix," he introduced. His presence and scent made me feel at ease in ways that I never imagined. I smiled at him, shoulders relaxed and completely at ease with his company. "My name is Etheral, but you probably already know that."

Katerina smiled, nodding at her husband, loving the name they chose. “Elijah, or in other words, his Russian name Ilya” Alpha Nathan said “Ilya Dimitri Kozlov” Alpha Dimitri’s head shot up at his son, hearing his name as his grandson’s middle name. Alpha Nathan noticed his mother’s eyes drop to the ground, knowing well enough that her son was still upset with her; however, he was sure not to disrespect the woman in any way possible. “You’re being serious?” Alpha Dimitri asked and Alpha Nathan nodded, smiling at him.
