Something was definitely going on and Dixon didn't quite know what it was. And he was one of those wolves who didn't like to be uncertain. He knelt down in front of the she-wolf and grabbed her shoulder.-What do you know about this?She shook her head and didn't dare speak again. She was afraid that any of her words might get him out of control again and she was still processing that he was just seconds ago about to... reject her. Just thinking about it made her chest clench so tight it hurt infinitely. Even her mate was rejecting her. She wasn't lying, she had no idea who the two of them were talking about.Dixon closed his eyes and sought patience. He would get no answer from her, that was certain. He would have to attend to this problem personally and find out who the hell this wolf was that had dared to touch and mark his mate. He would rip his teeth out no matter what. That was a fact. She stood up and looked at the beta still in the doorway.-Bring me a rope- he snapped in anno
The atmosphere was too tense, forcing the others present to back away from the two male wolves who were exuding so many pheromones it was suffocating. Will, behind Dixon swallowed dryly, wiping the sweat from his brow, in the face of the existing pressure.-Alpha called out to him, but the two wolves seemed to have a conflict of growls, powerful and threatening. Especially the newcomer, who, by this time, had no smile left on his face and was glaring at the current alpha.-Dixon growled through gritted teeth.Ethan for his part, let out a serious snort.-And leave you with everything. Not in your best dreams. Besides, now there's something else that's in this place and I'm interested in getting it back.And Dixon knew what he was talking about. If he was annoyed before, by this time he had lost most of his patience. His claws were fully unsheathed, and only he didn't leap at him to tear at the throat of the one who dared seek both the pack's mandate and its mate, because the beta stoo
The nearly 20 minutes that followed were almost a test of survival for those present inside the room. Every second the smell inside the room grew stronger as the two wolves both glared at each other and exuded their pheromones. Dixon wasn't showing it, but he wished this would be over soon. He wasn't nervous about the outcome of the ritual, it was certain he would emerge as the alpha's son, both his physique and power were similar to his father. But he had things to understand, like his mate who was just a few doors away from them. Mate that had the scent of the wolf in front of him and was somehow also claiming her.How dare he?She was his. And no, he would not reject her, he would make him understand her place. Nothing would be taken from him again. He would have to make strong work with the she-wolf, however, she would understand to close her legs to other wolves and only open them to him.On the other hand, Ethan was just leaning against the wall, with his arms across his chest.
Clara was extremely confused.From finding herself in front of the new alpha who looked at her as if she were the most promiscuous she-wolf in the entire pack and left her tied to the bed as if she were an animal, she found herself running in the middle of the forest, as if her life depended on it.She had the urge to stop and analyze the situation, but she was more focused on not bumping into the shadows of the trees in front of her and of feeling how she was being chased by two presences that were already very close to her. Not sniffing around her too much to know who they were. The pheromones of the two male wolves behind her were so potent and aggressive that they forced her own paws to keep running.And no one knew how glad she was that she had learned to run away so quickly, having to do it as a matter of routine every time she was chased by the Wild Ones when they went hunting. Thanks to that, the wolves could stay close to her, but not reach her. And she had a rather unusual e
The water pounded against her skin as if it wanted to break her, her body crashed against the stones, hurting her bones as it went by. And despite all that and the pain that almost drove her to unconsciousness, Isabela could only smile internally because at last, after this, when she reached the edge of the river, where the beginning of a violent waterfall was located, she could find peace after death.-NO- she heard in her head, a voice that did not belong to her mate, but she paid no attention to it.It was the first time she had been able to make a decision and see it through to the end. He couldn't be happier, even if it meant ending his life.However, her happiness, as usual did not last long. Something closed around the back of her neck in a violent way and pulled her tightly, preventing her from reaching her destination. Clara tried to struggle and resist, only to realize the damage to her body and not being able to move. Moreover, what pierced the back skin of her neck were fa
Clara woke up slowly. She was confused, dizzy, with a metallic taste in her mouth. She was lying on a soft but unfamiliar surface. There was hardly any light where she was and she found it almost impossible to focus on anything, if she could focus at all.She made the effort to get out of bed so that the sound of metal, one that was not unfamiliar to her, reached her and she shuddered.She sat up and stretched out her hand to find that a thick shackle was around her ankle and attached to it a large chain that surely would not let her escape. Unlike other times she did not let out a sob nor was she affected. It would not be the first time she found herself in such a situation.What worried him most was how he had gotten there. The memory of what had happened before flashed through his mind and he could have sworn it had all been a dream, but from the smell of her body, nothing could be further from the truth. Apart from her natural scent there were two strong fragrances that rather tha
Will felt like his head was about to explode, especially since he was mediating the whole chaotic situation in the pack. Having the former alpha about to die, his supposed sons about to rip their own throats out claiming both the position that rightfully belonged to them and also the she-wolf who was their mate. All that would bring gray hair to his already light hair, through which he ran his hand, feeling it soaked with sweat. He was going crazy.But first things first. Solving the issue of the pack's alpha that was the most important thing, after that would come the Moon. He wondered why the Moon Goddess had given those two wolves to someone like Clara. A flawed female, with hardly any personality and who would rather stand in a corner taking punishment than rise up in all her splendor. That he had always detested about her. Even if she was half blind and had had a bit of a rough childhood from what he'd heard, she might at least have more willpower, but nope. To have someone like
The alpha had died deadAt those words Ethan was the one who gasped.-What?- she couldn't help but say, burying her hands so tightly in the bars that they turned white and her face pale, -What do you mean, he died?- her expression suddenly changed to one of hatred and restrained fury.Will looked over his shoulder at him, there was bitterness in him.-The alpha was very sick. This was something we had been expecting for a long time. It was long enough that he had been in his condition.-But, but I - the words were barely out of Ethan's mouth.-What?- this time it was Dixon who spoke, his voice was so cold that those present swallowed dryly, -Did you have the idea of killing him yourself- he snorted, -Sorry to disappoint you but he was one of those wolves that always broke your plans.And saying this he headed for the exit followed by the beta and the guard leaving Ethan still in the cell.-AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHHHH- the wolf's scream echoed throughout the room shaking the walls and he fell t
