Beta Gabriel Lodge.
Beta to one of the most feared men in the country whilst being a terrifying one himself.
He's not really sure what drew him to choose Adelaide as a mate. Maybe it was her soft beauty or her strong soul. All he knew is that when...

We finished up shopping pretty quickly and then loaded the bags in the car. We were both pretty quiet after the whole "marriage" talk.
Marrying Gabriel didn't seem real to me. Having someone so closed off as a husband and mate seemed impossible. It also didn't help that I was only eighteen and one day old.
I drove Lilly back to her house and helped her unload her groceries and during that process we made more plans for me to pick her again that same day and walk around the town. Both of us wanted to familiarize ourselves with the pack.
Not to mention it was a beautiful day outside. The sun was shining brightly in the blue sky and even though the cold nipped at our skin, it was still nice.
After putting the groceries away in Gabriel's kitchen, Lilly and I parked in town and then started to walk around, each of us lost in our thoughts. Even before we were chosen we would tend to do this a lot.
We just hang out as each other's houses, not really talking but being comfortable in each other's presence. I severely missed those days at home.
Lilly screamed and my trance was broken. I looked at her and saw her being pulled into a small alley by a man. She struggled and thrashed in his arms trying to get away.
I went up to help but my arms were pulled behind me painfully and I let out a whimper of pain.
"Look, we have the beta female and the Luna all to ourselves," the man behind me sneered.
I screamed on the top of my lungs, as did Lilly. I struggled and struggled before I picked up my foot and kicked it up behind me. My assailant let me go, clutching his private part with both hands, pain written on his face.
"Bitch," he hissed.
I pulled the other man off Lilliana and he turned around, back handing me. Pain seared in my cheek as I fell to the ground. I reached up to touch my face and hissed my hand came in contact with a bloody cut.
