HayleyI heard the whistle in the air before I saw the arrow that struck Brennan in the chest. An arm went around my waist and pulled me into a hard chest as a brunette woman came from behind me, firing more arrows. She didn’t spare me a glance as she walked in front of me as Brennan roared, pulling at the arrows as fast as she was launching them. “In the portal, little wolf,” A deep voice spoke in my ear as I barely caught Niko’s face before he threw me into Damien's arms. “Get her out of here.”Damien tightened his grip and tried to push me toward the window. I grabbed his arm, twisted out of his hold, and growled at him, “He’s pack. I’m not leaving him behind.”“He’s going to be right behind us,” Damien grabbed me again, pushing me hard into the portal. It felt like being dunked into ice water, light so bright you couldn’t see but the cool sensation slipped over my skin and coldness seeped into my bones. It reminded me of when I made the deal to save Damien’s life but I didn’t fee

I slipped out of bed, stretching my sore body. Damien was sleeping soundly, which was a weird thing to witness because I don’t think vampires slept, but he was no longer a vampire.The moonlight lit up the room and I glanced out the window, taking in the dense forest surrounding the house. We had spent the rest of the day entangled in each other and I was trying to push the guilt away. I felt selfish to have a moment of happiness for myself when I didn’t know what was happening to everyone else. Rubbing my chest, I could feel the slight warmth of my pack, a reminder that I’m not alone, but I had no idea where they were.“Hayley…” Sabine’s soft voice interrupts my thoughts and I spin to see her standing in the doorway. Damien didn’t steer from the bed and I clutch onto the windowsill to prevent

AeronThe click of the last cuff was a brief relief as the car rocked to the side and I grip the steering wheel, trying to counter the movement. I know we’ll be flipped soon and I hope Andrus is close by.“Protect your brother, Meghan. Don’t worry about me.” I say through clenched teeth. Adeline running me hard and Sage begging to be let out to play.“I don’t usually give you a second thought anyway.” She scoffs and I laugh from the sweet taste filling my mouth as I slam on the brakes, narrowing missing the wolf that was charging us.Before the car has come to a complete stop, I jump and I hear Meghan pushing Jax out of the door on the other side. I shift, letting Sage take over a

JaxThe sudden drop of my shoulders and the pressure of the movement of those muscles have me gasping awake. I try to blink but my eyelids are swollen and crusted shut with blood.“You are one ugly dude right now.” I hear Aeron’s voice whisper near me, hands grab me under my arms as I sag against a body.I hiss at him, “Shut.. the… fuck.. Up” I get out between ragged breathes, though the warmth of my brother here has amusement seeping into my voice.His chuckle is low as I groan from the freedom of the wall, I can feel the shackles still around my wrist though.“Can’t shift,” I say and try to lift my arms, Aeron grabs the c

AERON Snapping my fingers for their attention, Andrus and Iris finally break apart. “Finally. You didn’t swallow her tongue this much when we were parting for the Hunt.” Iris giggles while Andrus growls in warning at me, pulling her tighter against his chest. “I knew I was going to find her immediately after.” I laugh. “Yes, because that plan went so well. We barely fought our way off pack land. This is so no different, say your final goodbyes. You are the one who suggested tonight.” He goes to growl at me again and Iris puts a hand on his chest, caressing him softly. “We will be fine. You’ll find us quickly, I’m sure of it.” Isaiah shakes his head, watching us all. I could see the smile on his lips though. Iris and Andrus were a perfect example of fated mates, so sickeningly in love with each other. “We will be fine. Bring Jax back to us, He’s going to need more healing than I can provide.” I grimace at that statement, ignoring the irritation that I didn

Aeron “Well, how was he?” Andrus asks as soon as Isaiah walks into the cabin. “He’s…” Isaiah glances at me, “alive.” I make a disgusted scoff and he rolls his eyes, making his way to where Iris, Andrus’ wife, is making food. “So he’s not doing well, but you don’t want me to catch you in a lie.” Isaiah sighs. “They’re beating him, not torture, but I still had to heal him. But–” he pauses with a grimace. Andrus is pacing throughout the room and he growls when Isaiah doesn’t continue. “Out with it. We risked a lot to visit him. Someone could have followed you back,” He glances out the window a

It’s easy to see the flashes from outside the tinted windows of the car. “Can they even see us?”“No.” Derek says, his hand intertwined with mine. “So they’re just taking photos of a car?”Derek sighs. “Yeah, they just rapidly shoot in hopes of getting the one perfect shot. You ready?” He glances at me wearily. No, not really. I nod anyway and he lets go to open the door and climbs out. The people surrounding the small sidewalk in front of the restaurant instantly start yelling for his attention. He holds out a hand for me to grab and I hesitate. I don’t know what I was thinking by wanting this. I’ve always hated attention and this is like being put under a microscope. Derek is watching me with a hint of sympathy and I take a deep breath, putting my hand in his. I’m thankful that there are men blocking the people with cameras flashing because I think without them they wouldn’t even allow us to walk in the restaurant

“Can’t… breathe..” I croak Natalie lets go of me and takes a step back, holding onto my shoulders. “You know I hit him with one of my pans.” My eyes widen and I look at Derek, who nods wiping his mouth to hide a smile. “Umm.. thank you?” I laugh softly. “Well he deserved it so no thanks needed.” She pushes my shoulders back and looks me up and down. “You been eating? You looking a bit skinner?” Linda is standing awkwardly to the side of us as we’re all gathered in the kitchen. She’s kept her gaze down and hasn’t spoken a word since we got in. “Yeah. I have been. The first couple of days were rough but I found a place to stay and she kept me fed.” “Where’d you go?” Natalie asks, giving Derek a hard stare. “I ended up in Arizona.” Derek kisses my temple and squeezes my forearm as he passes us. “I have a few calls to make. All your stuff was moved to our room.” I narrow my eyes at his statement as he chuckles and walks towards his office in t

“Are you insane!” I screech. “Get off the floor right now.”Derek smirks and it has me pausing the full panic meltdown that was about to ensure.“Why are you smirking? This isn’t funny. You don’t just propose to someone.”He laughs as he stands back up, but I could see the small black box he was fumbling with in his hands. I think he was serious about the proposal the longer I stared at it.“Because never did I think I was going to propose to someone and then they reject me, but to be honest I expected it somewhat.”“Somewhat? There was a part of you that thought I was

Grunting, I left up the full box napkins and held them on my hip and I backed through the door of the kitchen. I just needed to fill them up for the breakfast shift and I would be good to go for the night.As soon as I walked through the door, a prickling of my skin up my back made me hyper aware I wasn’t alone. I dropped the box on the floor with a loud thump and turned around, the knot in my stomach only tightening when it was who I expected. Or maybe hoped.He leaned against one of the booth tables, his arms crossed against his chest in a dark blue tailored suit. His eyes stared at me with a dark intensity that warmed my center. God I had started to forget how beautiful he was.“Your purple hair friend w

“Black as my soul.” I beamed at Mr. Johnson, setting the coffee cup in front of him. “Are you going to take a cinnamon cake or bagel this time?” The elderly man grunted. “Stop trying to fatten me up.” He shot a quick look at Ms.Gibson, who was bringing out a fresh tray of pastries from the kitchen behind us. I smiled, knowing she heard him as she tsked her tongue. “Stop harassing my help. You know I take in broken souls.” Mr. Johnson huffed and looked back to me, sipping his coffee slowly. “You ready to share your story yet. Gossip around town is pretty boring, boy problems.” He rolled his eyes. I shot a glare at the old lady next to me. “Thought you didn’t gossip? Locked up like a vault?” &nb

24 hours.That’s what it took for the first doubt to enter my mind.To ask myself if I made the right choice.Should I have stayed and waited for an explanation?48 hours.That’s what it took for me to remember who I am.Myself before him. Before friends. Before a meal three times a day. Before money.56 hours.That’s what it took for me to get off the bus..I hadn’t reached the beach of the west coast, but I was done feeling trapped in a steel box on wheels. Eating crappy gas station food, only stretching during re

Caspain gave me a saccharine smile that had goosebumps running up my arms. He shifted me off his lap and faced Reno. “Well, Mr. Alvarez, what do you want in exchange for Kellum’s life?”Reno stopped twisting in watch and turned to Lust, “Are you a part of this bargain as well? Since it was your invitation and we are in your club.”Lust shrugged, “Whatever my brother needs.”The use of the sentiment had Reno tensing and glancing over his shoulder at the man standing behind him. I think he knew this meeting could turn for worse at any given minute and he would be on the losing side. I glanced around looking for his own men, knowing he wouldn’t have come alone. With a furrowed brow, I leaned back into Caspain. “Where are his men?”Caspain rubs a thumb along my wrist but doesn't say anything to my question and a sense of dread starts to form inside.“I’ll take Rae and the promise of no retaliation with his club as collateral. And I’ll have you brought to Kell’s location.” Reno says, glan

One glance from a clubgoer, Caspain had me tugged onto his lap body hidden from the rest of the private sectioned lounges above the dance floor. I sat with a stiff back, leaning away from his chest and on the booth as I faced Lust, who sat in the middle of the booth. It left the seat across from Caspain open as we waited for Reno’s arrival. Every brush of his arm as he sipped on his drink and returned it to the table had me jostling on his legs, and I gripped my thighs trying to tuck myself in. He turned his head so he could whisper in my ear, “Relax.” “I didn’t agree to this,” I hiss back at him. Caspain tucked a piece of hair behind my ear, then grasped my chin tugging my face to his. “Do I need to ask Lust for his influence? Or can you put

A startled scream came out when he spoke behind me. His voice was cold, the darkness in it sending a shiver down my back.“You think I would allow him to touch you.” I spun around, using the door to hold me up. I lick my lips and lift my chin, hoping my voice didn't waver. “You don’t get a say.” Note to self, remember demons can teleport through locked doors.“You’re wrong, little human, you’ve been mine since I tasted your blood on my tongue.” His dark eyes dragged down my body and I repressed another shiver while I stood up straighter.“You mean the night where you then tried to kill me 5 seconds later? If that’s how you treat people, I think I’ll pass.” Caspain stepped closer, moving till he was in front of me and his arm rested above my head. I held my breath, trying to reduce the friction of my chest rising and falling against his. “I’m a patient man, I’ll wait till you accept it.”I raised my hands and pressed against hi

“My soul?”Lust nods excitedly. “Yes, her soul is quite beautiful.”“Don’t look at it,” Caspain growls in a low dark tone, they exchange looks before Lust wipes his mouth, hiding his amusement. I watch this with a slight concern that they can so easily see my soul.Lust waves a hand and drinks appear on the coffee table in front of us, some sandwiches following soon after. “So, tell me about this contract, Rae.”Caspain makes another noise in the back of his throat and I smack his chest as I go to sit next to Lust. “Stop it. I’m not vibing with these possessive behaviors you are starting to show. You’re only here to fulfill a contract.” I

I bend over grabbing my knees, gasping for breath while trying not to vomit. The world is still spinning, but I’m trying to focus my attention on one crack in the sidewalk.“What.. the.. fuck.. was.. that..” I say in between dry heaving.“I guess humans do not travel well after all,” Caspain says, sounding amused.I wave a middle finger in his direction and a small chuckle has me clenching my thighs. Why is he so hot for a demon. And why is he so goddamn annoying.Taking a deep breath, I stand up straighter and squint to take a look around the street.“We’re still in Chicago.”&nb

Pounding on the door pulls me out of a groggy sleep and I blink my eyes open. I turn towards the demon sitting in the chair, I half expected to not be there. That last night was a crazy dream but he’s still as a statue almost like he didn't move all night, his eyes on me.“Want to get that?” I ask him“No.”I groan, pushing to sit up. “Why not?”“I don’t open doors.”Raising an eyebrow, I scoff. “Because answering summons on random roads in the middle of the night is so dignified.”His eyes narrow to slits and I can’t wip
