Nathaniel X Marc Novels & Stories

Nathan goes first as he pulls out a small piece of paper. "When I met you Marcus, I was at my rock bottom. I didn't believe in relationships anymore and I hated how I looked. But you taught me that love is real and I could find it. I didn't know at the time that I would be stood here with you by my side but I'm very happy I am. Cole, you were a surprise in my life. You teased me until I fell in love with you. You're the energy I needed to keep me on my toes. If it wasn't for Marcus, we wouldn't be together anymore and that would have been the biggest mistake of my life. I love you both so much and I can't wait to spend the rest of my life by your sides," Nathan says as a few tears builds up

He didn't say anything or do anything, but the air became a bit stuffy, even though we stood in the well ventilated hallway with tall, open windows. “Well,” Marcus said lightly, taking his hand back from mine, and clearing his throat. “I should probably get those patrol orders moving.” He glanced at Shawn. “Alpha.” Shawn gave a curt nod. Marcus shot me one last friendly smile before backing away down the hallway. “Nice meeting you, Eva.” he winked politely, his dimple still visible from the distance. Then he was gone. The hallway suddenly felt far too quiet with only Shawn and I in it. We stood there facing each other. Awkward didn’t even begin to cover it.

he hesitated “—a scheduled email draft in her account. It’s not sent. It’s timed. If she doesn’t cancel, it goes out.” My wolf stirred. Not fear. Interest. “A dead-man switch,” I said. Jory nodded. “It’s addressed to multiple outlets and a lawyer. Subject line is ‘If I’m missing.’ Attachment mentions names: Doyle, Crowe—and something about a mark.” I kept my expression calm while my gut tightened. So Mara can blow up the entire pack, me, not just Gage. Hunters. Police. Media. The council’s secrecy becomes a bonfire. Which means she’s not just a witness.

Nathaniel's POV Dana found me in the office at seven the next morning with the particular expression she reserves for news she has already decided I won't like. "Marcus had breakfast with Halloran yesterday," she said, setting a folder on my desk that was, I noted grimly, becoming the week's theme. "And dinner with Chen the night before that. Two board members in two days is not a coincidence, Nathaniel. It's a campaign." "Using the marriage story."

The door opened again before anyone could continue. Mara entered carrying a leather satchel and the expression of a woman who had seen too much nonsense in her life. She was broad-shouldered, silver-haired, sharp-eyed, and absolutely unimpressed. She took one look at us. Then at me. Then sighed. “What did you idiots do now?” Wow. That woman was definitly something I wouldn't want to mess with if she taked like that to four Alphas. “Survived,” Jaxon said. “Barely, as far as I can see,” she replied dryly.

“Look, I don’t know who you are, but my mom doesn’t need any further stress. She just lost her husband. So, I will ask one more time, who is this?” “My name is Nathaniel. I-,” he cut me off before I could finish my sentence. “I know who you are, Nathaniel. Why are you just now calling?” he growled. “I’m sorry, but I really am just calling to check in on Dominique. I don’t mean to cause any trouble.” “She’s at Dad’s grave on the pack lands. As much as I don’t like it, I know mom would probably like to see you. So I will tell my wolves to stand down and let you pass.”

Racheal, Nathan's mother said. Everything looked like a dream to me, Nathan and I couldn't pretend for long. If it was then, we would have been talking and probably, going around, I wonder why those people who called themselves our parents couldn't notice that. "Hmmm, I am happy you all are happy for what is going to happen soon, we don't need introduction, because we already know who is who, we know each other and we have been working for long, in a few years time, we will see our children handling and controlling our company, well, let's leave that aside, what date are we choosing? I want it so quick" Alexander, Nathan's father, said.

Alpha Nicholas I've been in my office for almost 2 hours but you wouldn't think it, I've gotten barely any paperwork done because despite my best efforts, my mind keeps going back to last night and this morning with my mate. Last night we finally marked. Yes, I know it hasn't been that long since we met and even less time since we mated but most mates mark each other within the first day or two so in comparison we took our time but I'm ok with that.

Today was also the day we finally said goodbye. The cemetery was quiet, shaded by ancient willow trees. A large, beautifully carved marble headstone stood at the end of the path. It read: MAX VAELOR. A BROTHER. A PROTECTOR The entire pack stood in silence around the grave. Flowers covered the fresh earth. I stepped forward, my hand shaking slightly as I placed a single white rose on top of the marble. Noah stood directly beside me, his jaw tight, a single tear slipping down his handsome face. He didn't say a word, but he reached out and took my hand, his fingers intertwining with mine so tightly it almost hurt. It was a silent promise that we would remember Max forever.

I tore it off the wall and hurried back down the aisle. I reached out and held the flyer before Caleb. He looked at it, then did a double take. His jaw dropped open as he held it up. It was an advertisement to come see Martha’s Vineyard. And it listed the Vincent House.
