LOGINFREYA“Sera, please excuse us.” I pushed my chair back sharply, my pulse spiking in surprise to find Caroline here. Caroline was wearing an insolent look. As soon as Sera stepped out, she turned and clicked the door shut, locking it behind her. Caroline sat in front of my desk, scowling at me with barely leashed anger. “So not only were you foolish enough to not run far away, you had the guts to allow Leo to find you here?” My fingers tightened into fists as I stared at her. Caroline has become even prettier with access to Leo's wealth as Luna, but the gleam in her eyes had also become even more vicious. I picked up my phone to call pack security, but Caroline slapped the phone from my ears. “What? You can't defend yourself little mouse?” “Caroline, I've done my best to ensure we don't run into each other. I even left Blackclaw for you. Please leave my office.” I dropped the phone on my desk so wouldn't throw it at her pretty head. “Oh you think I didn't know Leo was searching
FREYAThat afternoon, I finished work as early as I could, locked my drawer and grabbed my bag. I walked out of the office and drove to the Atelier. Derek had already sent me the address. I hoped to avoid Leo until he saw me strut into the party that evening.I pulled up on front of the building from the address with Anwar. “This is the place?” It didn't look like an atelier. The building was very nondescript, with barely any markers to show what it was meant for. “Yes, Luna Freya.” I nodded, gazing doubtfully at the door. “Wait here for me then, I'll be back.” A man in a startlingly white suit, and black gloves met me at the door. He opened the door and waved me into the store. “Welcome, Luna Freya. This way please. Your stylist is waiting.” He led me down a dimly lit hallway, and into a room decked out in warm oak wood. Half the room was made of marble and opulent curtains. The other half was taken over with fabrics of all types. Dresses floated on mannequins like they’d be
FREYAInstead of going downstairs to lunch, I stayed locked away in my room. Now that Leo knew where I was, he would try to do something drastic. I didn't believe his words to Uncle Joel were idle threats. But I needed to make a decision before I could face him. The next morning, I went to my office and tried to avoid everyone. Madame Claire, Derek and even Sera and Lizzy. But almost as soon as I arrived, I heard a knock on my door. “Who is that?” I called out, my heart lodged in my throat. “It is Ashford, Luna Freya.” Ashford's voice answered. Ashford? I hadn't even known he had come with Leo. What did he want? Had Leo sent him? I opened the door and walked back to my desk. Ashford came into my office and sat in front of my desk. “Is there something wrong?” I finally asked when he didn't say a word. “How are you related to Ms. Caroline?” Ashford questioned. What an absurd question. Wasn't it obvious that the woman hated my guts? “I'm not related to Caroline in any way.” I
FREYAHis jaw clenched. For a second, I thought he would drag me away with him. Instead, he smirked and backed away, turning to Madame Claire. “Please, give me a moment alone with my Luna.” Madame Claire gazed at me for a long moment, her eyes flicking between us before she nodded and backed away. “Come on. I'll have lunch prepared, Alpha Leo. Then we'll talk about the new hospital.” Oh, he was here to begin building a new hospital? Madame Claire had hinted that to me, but I didn't think it would be this soon or even that it would be handled personally by Leo.Immediately the hallway was cleared, Leo reached for me again, his fingertips barely grazing my wrists before I jerked back like he'd burned me. “Don’t touch me,” I snapped.I stepped closer now, because I wanted him to hear every word. “You looked me in the eye and said I was a worthless deceiver. And now you're here trying to take me back to Blackclaw? What for? Are you trying to ruin me all over again?” Leo gazed at me,
FREYAI’d never seen Derek this way before. His shorts was slung low on his hips, his eyes dark and relaxed. Sweat dotted his forehead, flattening his hair over his forehead. “I have a meeting with Quade early in the morning. I decided I'd spend the night.” He said. The dark promise in his voice caused my lungs to contract in panic. I couldn't seem to take in more air. His form hulked over me as he stepped closer. His muscular build seemed to tighten further. I let out a scoff of disbelief to distract myself from staring. “You weren't waiting around to hear Anwar return me safely to the pack house?” A low hum came from Derek, causing goosebumps to cover my skin. Why did he seem so different tonight? What was happening? “And if I was?” He asked, pressing further into me. “Derek, I've told you there no reason to worry so much.” I said, shaking away the entrancing scent of his skin filtering into my nose. “Isn't there? Did you know Leo has been search parties after you?” He aske
FREYATwo weeks had passed since I moved to Madame Claire's pack. I wished I could say life became perfect since I left Leo, but that was far from the truth. I was feeling a lot stronger. Madame Claire forced me to stay away from work for most of the week, but by the next week, I was already visiting the lab everyday. With each day that passed, I was less worried about Leo. He hadn't come to drag me back to Blackclaw, but even better, he hadn't called either. He wasn't causing any trouble. Even Lizzy had been shocked by it all, but even more so when Derek actually stuck to his words and showed up each day at the pack. “Shouldn't you go on a date with him?” Lizzy asked, seated on my bed. “With who?” I asked, pretending I didn't understand what she meant. “Derek, of course, who else?” She rolled her eyes, squinting up at me as though I was being ridiculous. “That's a bad idea and we both know it.” I muttered, ignoring the look she shot my way. Derek is a good man, and really, I
LEOI fisted my hands in frustration as I marched up to Freya and the older man, Joel. “Step away from her.” I seethed. My fury burned so close to the surface that I was almost losing my cool. Freya wiped her eyes and pulled away from Joel. I saw her attitude change, her shoulders straightened an
LEO I couldn't think straight. Actually, I couldn't fucking think at all. I could still feel the tickle of Freya’s hair brushing my skin when I lifted her out of the car; thick and sweet, soaking under my skin and torturing me. It was on my lips, torturing me like a sweet I couldn't swallow. I
FREYALeo didn't say anything. He just stood there, gazing down at me, and I was frozen in place, anger battling inside me. All of a sudden, he turned to Lizzy and barked. “Get out!” The sound of his voice was powerful and there seemed to be much more anger in it than before. I couldn't help scra
FREYA Leo's voice shut down and became hard as stone. “Over my dead fucking body. You're not going anywhere unless I say you can. You have two choices; come home now or I'll find you and bring you home myself.” I was so tired of his attitude. One second he acted possessive like this, and the n
