Chapter 77 Chapter 77 Nolan POV I was reluctant to get involved in the race for Alpha King. The timing didn’t seem right for me, considering everything Felicity and I had planned-the divorce, the remarriage. It was going to cause a stir, an unpopular decision at least in the immediate
Chapter 76 Chapter 76 Ellie POV “Ellie?” Lance called as he knocked on my bedroom door. “Are you still alive in there? Have you grown roots? Should I call the gardener p> I was sitting on my bed, where I’d been all morning, unable to control the tears spilling down
Chapter 75 Chapter 75 “I already answered your question,” Lance replied angrily. “I have nothing left to say about it. Now get out of my face p> “What about you?” one of the reporters asked, shoving the microphone toward Cassian again. “Your father’s a little bit older, so maybe it

Chapter 73 Chapter 73 Nolan POV Alpha Alric sat stiffly across from me. He always appeared stiff-not uncomfortable, but poised, like he was ready to take action at any moment. It was almost unsettling. I’d dealt with many other Alphas in my time as leader of Silver Fang, and none

Chapter 71 Chapter 71 Nolan POV “It’s been weird without you here,” I said, leaning back in my office chair with the phone pressed to my ear. “I’m sure it has been,” Felicity responded. Her voice sounded a little different coming through the phone than I was used to hearing
Chapter 70 Chapter 70 +25 Bonus Chapter 70 Nolan POV I’ve never willingly admitted to feeling guilty about much, east of all the way I treat Ellie, but it was nearly 5:00 p.m., and she hadn’t left her room at all today. Considering the arguments we’d been having recently, it

Chapter 68 Chapter 68 Nolan POV Felicity left this morning to go to Pine Ridge-to Kieran’s pack lands-and as much as I understood her reasoning for doing so, and supported the theory behind it, I couldn’t stop the uneasy feeling roiling in my chest. Still, I had work to do.
Chapter 67 Chapter 67 Nolan POV “We need to talk,” Ellie said as she walked into my office. She had a serious expression on her face and was fidgeting with the hem of her shirt. She almost looked like er old self-nervous, watery-eyed-before I’d even said a word to her.
Chapter 66 Chapter 66 Nolan POV “Nolan, we need to talk. It’s important p> Felicity very rarely sounded serious. When she told me somthing was important, there was usually a whine in her voice that let me know she was being dramatic-but that was lacking now. I turned my full

Chapter 64 Chapter 64 Ellie POV When I found out I was pregnant, I wasn’t prepared for how much time I would be spending in my doctor’s office. Regular appointments were necessary, of course, to make sure the baby was safe, but that didn’t make them any less stressful. It

Chapter 60 Chapter 60 Ellie POV Lance took me out to the same bar and grill where we’d run into each other a while back. It was a really nice spot, so I wasn’t about to complain. I hadn’t really thought through what he meant by “taking me out tonight.”
