If you say so. Have you told her about her yet?

“What? Didn’t have the time?” he asked. “You’re going to break her heart, man.”

“Break her heart? Have you been watching those films again?

“Like I have a choice,” he muttered. “She shut you up good though, that’s a first for a long time now.”

The one person who could instantly calm me down when I snapped was my first mate. She was a kind

soul, and she wouldn’t let me end up in situations that I’d later regret. My light – she was taken from me

and I found myself in the dark.

I hoped to find my second mate, which was rare for werewolves, but I had no

Her feistiness, and how she snapped at me like I wasn’t the Alpha – she was the list to square up to me

in a long time,

By default, she was my Luna, a position which no sane woman would decline, except her – I couldn’t

even use it to bargain with her! She was ready to leave – she would’ve, but something held her back.

Maybe I’d ask about it someday when she trusted me enough to tell me. 1

One encounter, and my wolf was tamed.

One night, and my mind had conjured up our future.

I think… I might actually fall for you.

“You asleep?” Gale asked. “I didn’t mean to bring her up. Sorry.”

“It’s alright, Gale. We can’t keep pretending that she didn’t exist.”

“I have a few thing in mind. That old Han better concede. I won’t let himn take away my mate this time.”

“We’ll loep an eye out for him,” Gale assured. *This time, we will protect our Luna, no matter what it

takes.”

Our conversation ended and we stayed silent on the rest of the drive. I offered to switch places with

him, not that I’d let him be a pillow for my baby, but he declined, saying I should take advantage o f this

moment. Typical Gale = more than mny Beta, he was more of a younger brother to me, and just like

Lexy, he knew me quite well.

I lost my first mate because I failed to protect her. To this day, only a handful of people knew about the

truth. It was too painful for us, and so we wanted to spare the pack. The pack believed she died from -

the rogue attack, though there was more t o it than that – a sinister truth that I was

tell her everything

As a wolf-less Werewolf, she’d be an easy target to get to me. Basically human, she wasn’t gifted with

the abilities of our kind. This made her physically weak, but her fiery attitude sure covered it up.

For now, we’d have to keep it a secret. And when the time was right, everyone would know. My pick

would stand by her, and anyone who opposes would have to answer to me

This time, my life comes first before yours.

started to gather around us. I lowered the window to greet them, and the smiles on their faces were a

good sign.

Every time I left the pack, they were in a vulnerable position, which was why I leave the Beta and

I felt Anna stir. Opening her eyes, she looked up at me with the most adorable sleepy expression. She

covered her mouth as she yawned and stretched her arms. “Are we there yet?” she asked.

“Good moming, babe. Did you sleep

“I would… love to meet them too,” she replied, uncertainty in her voice.

I held her hand gently. “Nervous?”

She nodded.
