He clenched his jaw.
“But I don’t want to force you,” she said. “So please, try to listen, really listen. Axel, Alexander, Sofia, Jonas… they are nothing like Gorn was. You can trust them.”
Myka took a deep breath.
“It’s not that easy.”
“I know,” Alice smiled. “So why don’t you do a little research of your own.”
He furrowed his brows and looked at her with confusion.
Alice smiled.
“Go ask Peter for his opinion. You’ll at least know if he is lying.”
Myka chewed his lower lip nervously. He thought about the hospital and how Peter had pushed him away and rejected him again.
“Hey!” Alice shouted.
Myka looked up.
“Don’t kiss him again!” she growled, slapping his arm.
Of course, she knew.

“What was all that?” his warm voice whispered against her ear as his arms wrapped around her waist.
Alice leaned back into Axel’s chest, embracing his warm and sweet scent.
“Just trying to knock some sense into him,” she sighed.
Axel leaned forward and kissed her throat.
“But you just sent him away as the meeting is about to start again,” he whispered against her skin.
Alice closed her eyes and turned her head, exposing more of her throat for him to taste.
“I didn’t bring Myka to participate in the alliance decisions,” she said. “Having an even number of representatives from the nomads would be a bad plan. They might be locked in a tie if they can’t reach a consensus.”
Axel bit her gently.
“Then why?” he asked.
Alice took in a shaky breath.
“Because…” she whispered. “They need each other.”
“Who?” he asked, tightening his arms around her as he nibbled on her ear.
“Myka and Peter,” she whispered. “They need each other, just like we did….”
Axel reached his hand up to her chin and turned her face toward him. He kissed her. It was rough but gentle.
When they pulled away for air, she turned her body to him. Looking up at him with a soft growl, she held to his shoulders and jumped up into his arms.
Axel caught her and held her close.
“Are you sure the meeting is about to start?” she asked playfully, biting his lower lip.
Axel growled and kissed her hard.
When he pulled away from her lips, she proceeded to trail kisses along his jaw, still clinging to him.
Axel pulled out his phone as he began to carry her away from the meeting rooms.
“Let’s break for lunch,” he said when the other party answered the phone. “I’m starving.”
Axel hung up the phone and hurriedly took her to the nearest empty room with a lock.
460 Not Entirely Opposed
Five years ago, Peter was still training to be a doctor. As a part of his training in Winter, he volunteered to visit the lesser packs to offer exams and primary care, as well as learn treatments and remedies from other packs.
He was thrilled and thankful for every opportunity he was given. The debt he owed to Luna Corrine was beyond anything he could ever pay back.
Yet, when he met Myka, he almost abandoned everything for him.
Peter clenched his jaw and took a deep breath through his nostrils.
When he heard about the potential alliance with the nomads, Myka stirred in his thoughts for the first time in a very long time. But he never imagined that he would actually come.
He crossed his arms on the desk and then lowered his head to rest on them. He let out a heavy sigh.
“Why did he have to come here?” he whispered.
Seeing Myka would have been enough to unsettle him, to leave him feeling all the things he had pushed back in his mind. But, feeling his heart beating, tasting his scent and his lips…. That was far more than unsettling.
Walking away was the only option he had because as angry as he was, as hurt as he felt, he knew that if Myka had reached for him once more, Peter would have fallen into his arms without hesitation.
He may not have been the same na?ve and desperate teenager that had first met Myka five years ago, but he was still a wolf in the presence of his mate.
Even thinking of him now, Peter swallowed as the lingering taste of peppermint and honey danced on his tongue.
He thought of Myka’s arrogant laugh and licked his lips. He thought of the condescending way Myka had spoken to him as though he had no doubt that Peter had forgiven him. Even without an apology, that stupid grin on his face.
Peter’s heart was racing already.
He remembered how the strands of blue would fall over his face as he let out soft moans whenever Peter touched him.
Peter’s hand had taken on a life of its own. Moving down over his pants, massaging his throbbing erection.
All he had done was think of the idiot smiling, and already he was like this. What was he going to do when he showed up? Peter already knew he would. He had no doubt about that. As long as the nomads were here, Peter constantly had to be on guard. Prepared to run at any and every moment.
But right now, he was alone in his office.
He licked his lips as his hand pressed harder against the bulge in his pants. He closed his eyes and pressed his forehead against his arm as his fingers moved up to unfasten his pants.
There was a soft knock at the door.
Peter’s body stiffened, and his head shot up, looking at the door.
He took a deep calming breath and swallowed down the regrettable desire he was feeling.
Once he had calmed his heart, and another knock was heard, he grabbed a chart as he answered.
“Come in,” he called out.
The door opened, and he didn’t look up at first, still trying to focus his thoughts on the present moment.
“Hello, Peter,” Corrine greeted him gently, closing the door behind her.
Peter looked up with a smile. He lifted a fist to his chest and bowed his head to her.
“My Luna,” he greeted her in return.
“May I sit, dear?” she asked.
“Always,” he smiled. “How can I help you?”
“I’m here to check on you,” Corrine smiled.
Peter swallowed.
“I assume saying ‘I’m fine’ won’t get me anywhere with you?” he asked.
Corrine smiled and shook her head.
Peter took a deep breath and leaned back in his chair.
“You are the only person in all Winter,” he began and then paused, thinking for a moment. “Actually, you are the only person besides Myka and me who knew about him.”
“Yes,” Corrine nodded, “That is why I have come to check on you.”
“Did Bell tell you about what happened?” Peter asked with an irritated sigh.
“She did,” Corrine replied. “But I had already heard his name from Axel. I knew right away it was the same. When Bell expressed concern for you, I spoke with him.”
Peter’s eyes widened.
“I appreciate your concern, but that wasn’t necessary,” he said. “Once the talks are over, he will be gone, just like before.”
“I’m not sure if that’s true,” Corrine commented
“What do you mean?” Peter asked.
“The boy is… a dreamer,” she said.
