Excerpt

"Excuse me, Mrs Blackwood." He said to me as we stepped out of the courtroom.

My feet halted on the spot, my face reddening with so much rage I tried to conceal it to no avail.

The sound of the word Mrs sounded sour in my ears, especially having him call me that. Not that I was not at the age I should have gotten married, but because I had betrayed my boyfriend by marrying another man.

"I am your husband now, at least I deserve a kiss from my newly wedded wife. That is the norm after couples get married, right?"

Now what was he saying? He must be totally insane! It felt as if my fist cracked because of how much it clenched.

Wasn't it enough he made me betray my boyfriend? He is not even ashamed of his greediness. Not even a bit of it showed on his face!

"I've given you what you want, Liam Blackwood; a signature of my marriage to you. Now if you know what's good for you, it's left for you to give me what I want as we agreed."

"I never said I was not going to keep to our agreement. Agreement is an agreement!" He exclaimed, chuckling as if I had said something amusing.

"However..." He said and paused in a way that made me feel my heart also paused and started beating again, racing with anticipation when he began stepping closer to me.

I instinctively moved backward, trying to create some distance between us, but he kept advancing, his eyes locked on mine with an intensity that made my breath catch in my throat. He continued until I felt my back hit on his godforsaken car.

I could feel his red blood eyes bore into mine and his hands trapping me against his car as if caging a cat that fought to escape.

"It seems you have forgotten the meaning of marriage, my Little Bunny. Maybe I have to remind you." I could see that playful smile return on his lips, it irked me so much that the need to smash it off his face irked my hands.

He then leaned in closer, his breath whispering against my ear. "Marriage means a legally recognized union between two individuals," His voice was barely audible, but his words resonated deeply into my ears as he began to explain what he knew as marriage.

"characterized by emotional commitment, legal responsibility, and social recognition, often involving mutual respect, trust, and a...deep emotional connection." The way he stressed the last words made my heart skip remembering the state of the contract. Was the deep emotional connection going to happen between us? This was killing me already.

The next I saw was his hands trailing down the angles of my neck, going towards my cheeks and...

"Can't we...do this...some other time? I mean, we cannot just do it here...in front of people." I tried to speak some senses into him, feeling so embarrassed and flushed at the touch of his hands. I didn't know why it made my heart beat so fast again, like it did before.

"Yes, we can my darling. We are a couple, after all, so it's nobody's business. No law is against husband and wife kissing in public. It's only a kiss, I didn't ask you for sex here." He returned his hand to my neck again. I couldn't get over the sensational touch that tingled in my stomach.

We can't do this now for goodness sake! People are looking!

"Now, make me feel the sweet touch of your lips, my Little Bunny." As he finished speaking, his lips brushed against my ears sending a thrill through my entire body.

Next, he lowered his face until it was just an inch away from mine.

SYNOPSIS

"Someone as human as you don't deserve to be his Luna, Olivia Montes. Do you think you can stand the pressure of running this pack with him beside you? Tsk, the good answer is... NO... So if you know what is good for you, stick your ass to being the lowly human mate you are. I, the born wolf and the beta's daughter only deserve to be his Luna." She said to me; the woman who believes she deserves to be his Luna and not me.

I felt a shiver run down my spine as I realized that this man, once the dangerous person I knew, the chill in his demeanor though still intimidating, gave way to a radiant that captivated my heart - his eyes once frosty and detached, now shone with the intensity that made my heart race.

How could one turn from being dangerous to radiating a sense of warmth and shelter?
