“Hello, alpha!” the voice was hoarse. “Do you have our money?” “The girl and the child, where are they?” I asked coolly. “You mean your whore and heir? They’re right here. Money first,” he replied. "Someone’s there to collect." “Are you sitting down?" "Y-yeah. Why?" "Good. Someone's waiting to
Sara POV Judging from Wide mouth’s restlessness and how red the back of his neck got earlier, I knew he was talking to someone of greater authority. Male werewolves couldn’t help that reaction around another angry male of a much higher rank. I caught the words "your whore and heir," which gave me
Then, Thick neck came close and knelt with one knee in front of me. Alex snuggled closer, not from fear, but from the male’s general aura. “Hey! Look at me, tiny wolf," he poked the child as I struggled against the rope around my wrists. Alex lifted his head and glared at the male. "It’s all in y
Alex sat with his favorite teddy clutched to his chest, allowing Doctor Raul to do his thing. On the other side of the room, a nurse treated my bruises, which was taking forever to heal. The ointment stung a bit, but the pain didn’t feel like mine. I was focused on the little boy a few feet away. H
“What happened this morning?” Nick asked gently. There was no trace of malice in his tone. Instead, there was curiousity. He really wanted to know. I already prepared my reply for when he blamed me. The whole thing was my fault, after all. I went over it in my head before speaking. “Alex was upse
Nick’s POV “He still won't wake up and now the doc said he's gone into a coma!” Jake announced with a scowl. “Well, tell the doctor to drag him back out then!” I replied. “That’s not how it works, alpha,” Rich said. He stood glowering at me with his back leaning against my office door. “I nee
My phone started to buzz again. It was my mother this time. I turned the screen face down, but Jake already saw the caller. The she-wolf became a caller after my dad died. Before that, it was strictly texting. “I need to handle business back in the city,” I said idly. My mind had drifted again. Sa
Sara POV I tried to blink away the grogginess as Jake led me away. I still felt weak and sleepy but had to force myself to leave that heavenly bed. I missed Alex and my dad. Seeing them both, holding them would make me sure that this nightmare was over. That guard, Oak or something. He had never a
I'd ended up in this motel around 1 AM after hours of running and hiding. Which I was beginning to believe was redundant. I'd sat, shaking my legs, waiting for the Alpha wolf to knock on the door. Oh, he would knock, no doubt. He seemed like the posh, well-mannered type. The boring, peaceful sou
Penny listened to the Luna with kin interest, her lips parted slightly. Kevin decided he hated the nursing job too. Because she could run into her former customers while in the medical house. His gut settled down a bit as the Luna went on with other suggestions. "If you don't like that, there's
Kevin Kevin waited by the shrub far from the mansion until he was sure that Tessa and Richard had left the building. Penny was in there too. He'd called the reception earlier, and they confirmed that she had arrived. He had been mildly shocked that she didn't refuse this meeting. Her tone was
Richard POV For the next few seconds, Alpha Jet looked like he was staring at a ghost. Then, the color gradually returned to his face as he recovered, though he didn't look away from Tessa. Raven. That's what he just called her. Clearly, he had her mixed up with someone else. But that didn't give
Later that morning, Richard and I walked into the Chamber of Oaths where the Alpha and his family were already waiting. The candles of various colors gave sufficient light to the vast room. The smell of incense and beeswax filled the vast space. Richard led me to stand before the Alpha and his he
Tessa POV I opened my eyes to the sunlight dripping into the vast bedchamber through the curtains. It was the morning after my release. As I came awake gradually, I started to think that I dreamt the events of the last few days. That Richard Wolfe was not my fated mate. Last night was just a swee
"So who and who did you service these last few weeks?" He blurted the question. "What do you care?" She snapped again. "What do I care? Are those the only words you know?" "Kevin, shut up. Let the elder finish talking," his cousin said. He couldn't believe he was getting told to shut up by his
Kevin It is the morning after the full moon and Kevin is sitting in his living room, staring at his phone, unable to tear his eyes away from the social media post before him. The coffee taste in his mouth had gone very bitter. His stomach twisted and he felt like throwing up. Uncle Evan and his
He brought my hand to his lips and kissed it. "So please, I beg of you, let's put the past behind us. Don't say you can't stay with me. We belong together." I nodded. Then he bent to kiss me on the lips as I began to speak, "I want to stay with you..." "I love the sound of that." He stole his ki
