Candace POV
“I just don’t understand why, all of a sudden, you are pushing this Candace. I have made it perfectly clear that I will never claim a pup that isn’t mine,” he says. I refuse to allow Ace and that b**ch to live happily ever after. I don’t want Della, but I can give her to one of the omegas to raise. Hell, since I’m expected to have a pup for Roman, I plan to have a nanny around the clock. I never wanted to be a mother. It was just a way to make sure I got what I wanted. Hell, I even poked holes in the damn condoms to make sure I ended up pregnant.
“I agree she wouldn’t be announced as our pup, but at least I can see her grow up Roman. I didn’t realize how much I would miss her. Besides when she becomes of age she could be useful for solidifying relationships with other packs. Many Alpha’s like to take chosen mates or mistresses.” A smile spreads across his face. “I
knew you would make the perfect Luna. I’ll call Alpha Connor and demand a meeting,” he says.
“I want to go. I want to see Ace’s face when he falls apart because he loses his pup.” “Of course, my Luna,” he
says. He picks up the phone and a few seconds later I can only hear Roman’s side of the conversation. “Alpha
Connor, my Luna and I are requesting a meeting with you and your Luna.” His eyes darken, and I can only
imagine the disrespect of that pr*ck, Connor.
“No, this has nothing to do with the alliance. It is something far more important than some silly alliance. I expect the formal request to be honored as is expected in werewolf law, Alpha Connor.” He smiles and leans
back in his chair. “I assure you that we have no intentions of causing problems in your pack. This visit is of a
personal nature,” he says.
“Good, we will see you tomorrow at noon,” Roman says. When he hangs up, I can’t stop the smile that spreads
across my face. I stand from my chair and round the desk. Roman pulls me onto his lap and slams his lips
down on mine. I kiss him back, but there is no spark between us. When he moans into my mouth, I know
what’s coming. He stands with me in his arms and slams my chest down onto the desk.
I make no move to stop him when he flips my skirt up and rips my panties from my body. I picture it’s Ace behind me as he runs his fingers through my folds. I can feel myself starting to get wetter when I imagine it’s
Ace’s c**k nudging my entrance. Human or not, Ace was always an animal in bed. He knew how to turn my body inside out. I miss those days. Lack luster s*x is the price I’ve paid for becoming a Luna.
When Roman thrust forward, he wraps his arm around my waist and starts to rub my cl*t. I focus on enjoying
the sensation and the idea of Ace’s rough hands on my body. I can feel my org*sm building as he continues
to pound into me. “That’s it little wh*re, take my b*g c**k” he growls. Big is a stretch, but I moan hoping it will get him there quicker. Praying that he won’t continue to talk and ruin the fantasy.
A few more pumps, and we are both falling over the edge. Thank goddess for fantasies, or I’d never get there. He pulls himself from my body and right’s my skirt. He spins me taking my lips once more. “Every time is better than the last with you, my love. I’m a lucky ba**ard to have found such an amazing Luna.” “I’m the lucky one Roman. I’ve never felt this way before. You are the love of my life” I say, fighting the urge to laugh
as he pulls me into his arms.
I thought alphas were supposed to be smart, not gullible. When I pull back, he presses a kiss on my forehead before I head for the door. Once I’m in the hallway, I head right to our room. I pray this is the time that gets me pregnant, I’m hoping once that happens he’ll find his pleasure elsewhere. Maybe after I get Della taken

away I can convince Ace to be my lover so he can see her.
I smile as I make my way to our room. I step inside and strip out of my clothes. Once I’m showered, I pull my hair into a ponytail and pull on a new dress. My phone ringing pulls my attention away from the mirror, 1 smile when Ebony’s name flashes on the screen. “Tell me that b**ch found you two f**king,” I say before she can even say hello.
“Candace, I can’t even get close to him. They are like joined at the hip. When I saw them this morning in the dining room, I noticed that Ace was marked,” she says. I snap the eyeliner pencil I have in my hand. That f**king b**ch marked the man that is mine. My wolf growls feeling just as pissed. How dare that b**ch mark him? “There has to be a time you can get them apart. Use Della if you have to.”
There is silence for a long pause. “What do you mean use Della,” she asks. “I mean see if you can get her to pull that b**ch away from Ace or get one of the nurses to say there is an emergency. Just get him alone. Being marked she will feel the betrayal the minute he f**ks you.” “Fine, I’ll try to get him alone” she says. “Ebo ny, just remember this is one and done. He is still mine, and I plan on making sure he doesn’t forget.”
“What the hell are you talking about? You are mated to Alpha Roman. Even if Ace would f**k you which I highly doubt Roman would kill you for cheating” she says. “I have my ways of keeping Roman from finding out when I need a good d**king. No one f**ks like Ace. Just remember what I said Ebony. I would hate to end our friendship permanently.” “I have no intention of falling in love Candace. I still have a mate out there. I just want to give him a try so you don’t have to get your panties in a twist,” she says.
Olivia POV
My head is spinning, and I’m not sure about anything except the fact that we need to keep the council out of the pack. At least Xavier was honest about that much. “Miranda, how long will you be staying?” “I can be here as long as you need me to, Olivia” she says. “Ace, Della, and I were supposed to stay at my home in the human city for a couple of weeks while we figure out where we want to live.” “You won’t be living here” she asks, shock clearly written on her features.
“We hadn’t decided. I never expected to make this place my home. After everything that happened with my dad, I swore I would never live here. It has held a lot of bad memories for me, but honestly, now being bonded to Ace and having a pup that will likely have a wolf one day, I’m leaning toward remaining in the pack if that’s what Ace wants. I still have to go back to quit my job, but I’m sure I can work in the hospital here.”
The sadness from earlier is back in her eyes. I’m about to ask her again about her past when she speaks. “Olivia, if you plan to return to the human city even for a short period, you need to be careful. The council isn’t the only one that knows of the midnight wolf. There are other supernaturals who want to ensure that such a powerful wolf doesn’t take control of the your world. Despite being powerful in their own right, they fear what
Great, now I don’t only have to worry about the council but other supernaturals. “Can you be more specific when you say supernaturals?” She smiles before reaching for my hand. When our skin touches, it’s like flashcards in my mind. Vampires, fairies, elves, and witches appear and disappear. What the f**k? When the images fade, new ones appear. Miranda on the ground sobbing as Xavier stands over a bassinet.
The connection is broken as she rips her hands from mine. “How” she whispers. “What was that?” “Please don’t ask me, Olivia. I told you before until Xavier man’s up I can’t talk about the past with you. Besides, just as yours is painful for you, mine is for me,” she says. She stands and I do the same.
“When you return from the human city, contact me, and I’ll come back to the pack. All I ask is that I be provided a cottage away from the pack house. I can’t deal with Evelyn’s anger even if it’s justified. She is just directing it at the wrong person,” she says with a smile. “Thank you Miranda. I’ll make sure Connor makes the arrangements.” “Thank you, Olivia” she says. I almost jump on the couch when she fades until she is gone. Holy sh*t, my life is crazy.
says. “First, her name is Miranda. Second, you need to talk to Xavier. He has whatever answers you need. You
