The Strongest Beta is My Luna

Every 3 years, warriors from packs all over the world were forced to attend the cruel training camp ran by the ruthless Avondale pack. Knowing only few could survive, Clare Miller volunteered to go in her brother’s stead. She vowed to defeat the ruthless alpha, Leonel Wood, after she became the strongest beta. However, when it was time to choose where her loyalties lie, her mind was made up but her heart had a different answer. *** “Mate,” he commanded and I froze. His hand cupped my cheek firmly. The fire in his eyes raged between anger and understanding, judgment and mercy, life and death… “What do you want?” I asked. My heart thundered as I waited for the verdict. Slowly his thumb ran over my lips and his hand smoothed a hot trail from my cheek through the valley between my breasts over my belly and lower. "You." His eyes held mine as the heat rose inside of me. "But I don’t always get to make the easy choice.” “You always have the choice.” I looked him in the eye. “Until now.”

Chapter 8: The Ball

Clare’s POV

“Stop it.” My head turned to John as he called out to me.

“I’m not doing anything,” I said back to him.

“I can practically feel your nervousness from here, and you’re going to wear a hole in my car if you keep bouncing your leg like that.”

He let out a soft chuckle as soon as he saw me realize that I had been bouncing my leg up and down without noticing. I muttered under my breath as I smoothed out the dress across my legs and sat up straight. “Sorry…”

“Are you nervous because of tonight?” I didn’t say anything, knowing John would take my silence as an affirmation. The man was already too attuned to me; he knew my tells too well and he didn’t need clarification. “He’s not going to let you go to Avondale, Clare. Your father will do everything in his power to keep you here.”

I sighed as I pushed my hair out of my face, not used to how done up it had been for tonight. “Yeah, that’s kind of what I’m afraid of, though.”
