What the entire f**k?! How the hell did Jenna walk into this room right at this moment? There is no way this could be a coincidence. Tia pushes me off of her, and I fall on my back, scrambling to pull the blankets over me. Tia sits up on the bed and stares right at Jenna. “Can I help you?”
“Uh, no. I guess I got a bit turned around.” Jenna has a smirk on her face, yet there seems to be a bit of anger in her eyes. She hasn’t moved from the doorway or tried to close the door.
“I’m sure,” Tia responds with sarcasm dripping over each word. “You really need to get the f**k out of here. NOW!” Jenna huffs and looks at me. I close my eyes and try to will her away. I hear a sigh and the door slam shut.
The movement of the bed makes me open my eyes. Tia is scrambling to grab her clothes and put them on. I was so close to losing my v*******y with my Goddess-given mate, and Jenna ruins it. I sigh and watch Tia pull her clothes on. “Baby?” Tia doesn’t respond. “Love?” Still nothing. I push the blanket back and throw my legs over the side of the bed. I walk toward Tia and turn her to face me. “I’m so sorry that happened. She shouldn’t have done that.” Tia looks down but doesn’t respond. I wrap her up in my arms and kiss the top of her head a few times.
“I WILL NOT be made a fool of or treated like s**t in my own home.” Tia pushes away from me. “Either you get her under control or I will.” Tia pulls herself from my grasp and storms out of the room, slamming the door on her way out. I sigh and run my hands down my face. I can’t believe this is happening right now. It isn’t like we didn’t already have a mess to deal with; now there’s Jenna.
I find my clothes and put them on. I guess I should try to do some work since my private time with my mate has been interrupted. I walk out of the room and start to go down the hall. “You’ll thank me later.” I turn to my right and see Jenna standing in a doorway with her arms crossed over her chest. She is looking at me with a smug look.
“Excuse me?” Jenna pushes herself out of the doorway and starts to walk toward me.
“She isn’t for you. It would have been a mistake to sleep with her. You’ll thank me later.” Something in me flashes, and I grab Jenna by her throat. I have her pinned against the wall in no time. She is clawing at my hand, gasping for air.
“Let me make something clear to you. Tia is my Goddess-given mate, and you are nothing to me. You will not interfere with my life in any way. If you continue down this path, it will not end up nicely for you. I may be friendly with your father, but I will not sit back and let you disrespect my mate or me.” I open my hand, which makes Jenna fall to the ground with a thud. I turn and continue down the hall, listening to her choking behind me.

Damn! I knew Landon may be a bit upset at my stunt, but I didn’t expect him to try to kill me. Landon has a tight grip and is a very strong Alpha. To be honest, that just turns me on even more. I want Landon or Lincoln; hell, I will take both of them.
I haven’t found my fated mate yet, though I’ve been trying so hard. I have been traveling to different packs in hopes that I would run into him. When that didn’t happen, I returned home with my tail between my legs. Then, the twins showed up, and my hope was renewed. They aren’t my mates, but they are strong Alphas, and I should be a Luna.
I tried my hardest to get to them when they stayed in my pack, but my efforts were in vain. They just wanted to find their fated mates and didn’t want to experience anything else. I gave my best moves and offered my body, but they refused me. I missed them when they were at my back a few days ago.
When Luna Kimberly called and told me that she wanted me to take her place, I couldn’t believe it. I was given another chance to get the twins, and I plan to make the most of it. That b***h Tia seems pathetic. How could she be fated to the twins, meant to be a Luna? Luna Kimberly told me that no one
even likes her. She is the daughter of the head warrior and is weak as hell. Her own father doesn’t even want her. How could someone like that be fated to these powerful twins?
I pick myself off the floor and head into my room. I need to shower and regroup. I need another angle to make use of. I can’t expect to be in the area every time they are close to getting intimate. Maybe Lincoln will be the better path to travel. I hop in the shower, trying to figure out what my next plan should be.
One thing I’m sure of is if Tia tries to come after me, I will end her. Many people see me as a spoiled, stuck-up princess, but that isn’t my entire story. I have been training for much of my life for the possibility of taking over for my father one day. I could be a top warrior in my pack if I choose to. This Tia chick won’t be able to handle me, and that means I can be as bold as I want to be.
I get out of the shower and stand in front of the sink. I wipe the condensation off of the mirror and inspect my neck. The marks from Landon are already disappearing. I tuck a strand of hair behind my ear. “Look out Tia, I will take what is mine.”
