“Enough. That is enough.” Alpha Caius bellowed. He turned to Ghost, every one of his muscles deliciously taut. “She’s clearly lying.” “Yes and no.” I tried to flick my hair over my shoulder, but such a feat wasn’t possible when I was bound to a chair. “See, I told you I was a good liar.” Ghost ex
Anastasia I waited until nightfall to make my move. In all that time the sensation of eyes tracking me hadn’t let up. Despite being confident there were no cameras in the bedroom, there was someone watching me. That I was certain of. Practicing my ability while on the run taught me that no one wa
“You watch too many movies.” Damon snarled. “The human government wouldn’t dare risk the peace treaty we have with them.” I sat back in the closet, my mind working a million miles per minute. Wolves were actively going missing across the country. It couldn’t be a coincidence that Jasmine had vanis
Caius Who did this female think she was? Never in my years had I met someone I wanted to throttle more than this pint-sized, blue-eyed, golden-haired, thieving little nuisance of a she-wolf. She steals my favorite car, then proceeds to march around my home like she owns the place. I knew I should
None of us knew what to say. There was every chance what she was saying could be a lie, yet I felt the truth of her words deep within my bones. Now that she had revealed herself, I realized I recognized her name. Many years ago, before our father was killed in battle, he had sat me and my brother’s
Anastasia Alpha Caius went still, recognizing my words as the ones that had fallen from his lips not that long ago. His brothers also quieted, drinking in the tension that pulsed between us. I hadn’t meant to hurl his insult back at him, but Ziva had insisted. He took a step, towering over me as
Oh, he was pissed. I could practically taste his rage. Confessing to spying on them was necessary, though. He clearly needed a reminder of why we were entering this engagement. Now I just needed to throw him off when it came to my ability. “You expect me to believe you evaded Ghost with super speed
AnastasiaI signed the contract on the drive into the city.Much like Alpha Caius himself, it was rather straightforward. Believe me, I combed through the entire thing. A brute he may be, but he was still smart.We’d spend a few months showcasing our dates to the public eye, playing as though we act
Ditzy? I was not ditzy.Kicking back against his tree-trunk legs I leaned forwards and shot back with all of the momentum I had. I braced for pain and …“R’AAAGH!” Caius’s roar shook the halls.Stars danced behind my eyes, laughing at my agony. It spread across my skull as it smashed into Caius’s no
AnastasiaI could taste my husbands anger in the air as I ran from him.The dark laughter of his family faded into a silence that had me holding my breath. Caius wasn’t running after me the way I thought he would. He must’ve been keeping it together well enough. That was unfortunate.I wanted him br
On Sunday I came down to breakfast wearing a silk pajama set. It was a deep red, like the color of spilled wine, and matched my freshly painted toes. I yawned and waved at everyone as I headed over to the breakfast table.There was a platter of various omelets surrounded by smaller plates full of fr
AnastasiaI crawled back into bed feeling both disturbed and oddly satisfied. Obviously watching Knight violate my husband’s pillow was not the satisfying part, but I could handle it because it meant I got my revenge for the hair dye fiasco.At least he waited until after the wedding…Curling up ben
Knight grumbled something under his breath and clung to the pillow a bit tighter. I turned away with a laugh. Evangline really would send Peter here if I didn’t say something. It was tempting, though. Caius would be pissed if he woke up on some deserted island.“Very badass, but I have to decline. I
Evangeline liked to claim she was only attracted to women, but that was a lie. She was just incredibly picky when it came to men. It was on her eighteenth birthday that she told me she’d never even dated one before. Wasn’t surprising though given her mother.Point was, she could deny it all she want
AnastasiaI’m not a paranoid person.Seriously, I’m not.Even after spending years on the run from a rich asshole I had managed to keep my head and remain calm. I quickly learned to listen to my surroundings and watch out for signs. If I panicked or gave into the feeling that someone was watching ov
“How does playing double agent feel?” I asked the two of them after recounting the way we saved the civilians. They must have sensed the secrecy behind it all because they didn’t ask how we had enough time to rescue everyone.Alpha Nox’s shoulders trembled as he exhaled. It wasn’t everyday an Alpha
CaiusDamon and Knight were both already in the room when I entered.Knight was passed out on my favorite leather sofa. He wasn’t wearing a shirt and was covered in vibrant red kiss marks. The beast within me quickly checked them to make sure they weren’t Anastasia’s, which was insane considering I’
