The Perfect Luna by Marissa Gilbert

Chapter 40. Leave

“Who the hell are you?!” Brayden growled, his head snapping in his wife’s direction. However, he quickly realised, to his own relief, that the intruder wasn’t looking at her. So he placed Maya back to her feet. Riannon cuddled her friend at once. Nevertheless, Maya wasn’t

“Not without my mate,” the lycan balled his fists, muscles flexing on his arms and chest.

traitor.”

“Brayden!” now Riannon wanted to slap him even more than when he was sleeping with Roxy in the next room to hers. She glanced at her friend and noticed how she clenched her lips.

“Maya is a beautiful name,” was all that Reid said to them as he took another step.
