His eyes watched me as I remained only inches from his mouth. I bit my lip, waiting to see what he would do next. His hand reached up to my face and his thumb stroked my cheek, but he didn’t move a muscle. He was giving me the power to make the first move, and it felt… amazing.
I relished in his touch for just a moment longer before slowly closing in the gap. When our lips brushed, I knew it was the right decision. It made my skin tingle and burn, pleasure clawing its way out so fast that my knees felt weak. This moment. Everything was leading up to this point.

It seemed like nothing would get out of plans for billionaire Alpha Rafe Silvius, and indeed he had the control of the world, that was until human journalist Lila came to shake his world and everything he thought he could control. Lila is her own world, and most definitely she is not going to be easy to conquer.

The Billionaire's Howl

‘Rafe: Are we still on for tomorrow’s date?


Lila: No, sorry, something came up at work.


Rafe: That’s alright. Maybe the day after then?


Lila: I don’t actually know when I’ll finish this project. I’m sorry, I’ll text you when I’m free again, okay?’


I stared at my phone screen and the little white lie on it. How far I’ve fallen.


I mean, I did have work but not so much that I wouldn’t be able to make it to our date. I just didn’t think I was ready to see him again.


It had been two days since our night on the rooftop and we were only conversing through texts. Worse, despite my investigation, I had found very little that would answer my questions, let alone explain any of this.


I needed a few days to clear my head or at least figure things out. I didn’t want to see Rafe when I’d just demand answers he wouldn’t give me.
