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 24: Travel Trouble

Clare POV

I adjusted the small backpack over my shoulders as I continued to walk down the trail with John by my side. The sound of Leonel's crew around me was white noise at this point, as I was wrapped up in my thoughts.

John and I had gone and said quick goodbyes to my father and my brother, but both seemed to be acting weird. I couldn't place why, and before I could dive in further, Leonel had shown up and told us that we were leaving.

I looked up and saw Leonel heading the front of the group. As if he could sense my eyes on him, he glanced back and met my gaze, causing my breath to catch in my throat again.

Would he always cause this reaction in me? He looked away before I could this time. Obviously, he was still mad about the whole John thing.

My eyes dropped to the ground and I felt my cheeks flush, as much as I willed them not to. At least with the warm day and the physical activity of walking, my flushed cheeks didn't stand out.
