In fact, all of Elizabeth’s attention was focused on James, who sat in the back of Vanaran’s delegations with Sadie jumping into his lap. The pilot’s dark hair was combed back and his strong jaw was tightly shaven for the first time . He filled her velvet-lined tuxedo so completely that Elizabeth worried about the seams .it exploded, and it didn’t help that she could smell him as clearly as if he didwas at its side, like oak moss , amber and sea salt… And another thing that was just James.

As the passionate couple exchanged their vows, Elizabeth’s gaze drifted between James and her adopted daughter, overflowing with unspoken emotions. She was gripped by the most tortuous desire to go and be with them, and their wolf whimpered like a puppy in __her mind.

It’s not fair! The frustrated canine lashed out, unable to contain her fury as Sinclair nailed her fangs at the curve of Ella’s throat , eliciting a wailing scream from Luna – one that made the huge Alpha growl with sympathy and desire in __equal measure. Jealousy surged through Elizabeth’s veins as she watched the honorable couple fight their instincts towards unite there and now, using drunken expressions and emitting wild energy as they fought by control .

I want Jame’s brand. His wolf demanded for the hundredth time, annoyed at renewed complaint at the intimate ceremony. “Why don’t you let me have you!”

–

It’s too early. Elizabeth insisted, trying to let the canine feel the logic of her decision, instead of the agonizing desire that assaulted his senses. At the same time, another smaller one somewhere far away. _ _ Why ? How long will it take? How long do you have to stay voice murmured unhappily?

” Are you okay?” Cora whispered, misinterpreting the other woman’s expression of pain as she leaned in to whisper into her ear . “Is this bringing back difficult memories? ”

Immediately Elizabeth understood that the concerned human expected her to focus on the past, on its her own mating ceremony and bond with her late husband. The she-wolf managed to shake her head and draw her attention back to Ella and Sinclair , But the exchange was nothing short of shocking.

” You’re amazing: “James’ words warmed Isabel from the inside out, which, combined with the sudden rush of endorphins as he hugged his little girl , forced a reluctant smile on the wolf’s face.

“You don’t have to say that. ” She blushed, shyly lowering her gaze to the floor.

“Oh, yes. James replied fiercely, pulling her chin between his thumb and forefinger. “I don’t believe in lies or hiding the truth – especially not when it’s in the face from all . So if I say you look amazing , it’s because you look so good that it would be a crime not to tell you. _ _ ”

Elizabeth nodded tremblingly, still keeping her gaze averted and grateful for being able to use Sadie as an excuse for her cowardice. “My dear scapegoat. She thought, tickling the baby’s belly and earning a wide smile in response.

However, the longer the night dragged on , the more comfortable Elizabeth became , although She didn’t realize it until she caught herself laughing out loud at a joke. She put her hand over her mouth in surprise, and a low purr sounded in her ear . “None ofthat, now. I love hearing you laugh. Her big blue eyes turned to James in surprise, wrinkling when she saw his expression indulgent . Immediately Elizabeth realized that James was shielding her from the curious questions and tedious interactions all night long, And he haddone it with such skill that no one noticed. – Whenever someone came too close to a subject , the she-wolf tensed and her protective partner steered the conversation in another direction without a second thought . _ _
