With a huff that caused her lips to part, she ceased her infernal pacing and turned to face the two-way mirror.“I saw my ex in the club.”Forcing my sinister thoughts away, I regarded her with a raised brow. “Your ex. Do you think this tool works for him?”She snorted softly, her eyes on the two-wa
AnastasiaMy words, as totally badass as they were, gave me a moment to swallow back the bile climbing up my throat. Goddess, what had come over me? Or rather, who?Alpha Caius—douchebag—Blackwell, that’s who.I mean, seriously! How dare he? This wasn’t the first time I’d been treated like a common
“Just one picture, Ms. Lasko!”Setting my fork down, I scooted across the booth to lean into Caius’s side. As the photographer began snapping pictures, I lifted my chin to murmur into his ear.“So, are you going to tell me what you and your brothers know about the missing girls?” It had been a month
There was such dark promise in those eyes that I couldn’t resist riling him up. Goddess, what would it be like if a man such as him snapped?Clearly, I had issues.I hurled my other heel at him, snarling when he caught it without so much as blinking. “It’s no wonder you’re miserable and alone! You c
AnastasiaI raised my chin dismissively as Caius lowered himself into the armchair across from where I sat. Knight had just ventured off to Goddess knows where, leaving me alone with the buffoon.“I give it five minutes before we strangle the man.” Ziva said helpfully, “Two if he opens his mouth.”C
Both Caius and Knight said nothing. The two stared at me as though they’d never seen me before. It felt good to remind them how little they knew about me, and how wrong they had been in their assumptions.Knight lit another cigarette and began scribbling something on his clipboard. “Well that explai
My gaze fell to the armrest. I picked at a stray thread, wrapping it around the point of my nail. “My ex had a vision of the life he wanted. That life required a specific type of woman with specific qualities. Obviously, I didn’t fit the bill. Instead of forcing myself to be something I wasn’t, I di
AnastasiaThe next four weeks were a slew of dates, public outings, and horrendous “therapy sessions” with Knight.Caius and I still didn’t fully trust one another, but at least now we knew we were on the same team and wanted the same thing. He’d even begun to touch me more during our excursions. Fo
Fallon’s face went from red, to normal, to pale all within the span of a few seconds. Her breathing came heavy and all at once the guys started acting like what Ziva described as geriatric mother-hen’s.Knight raced into the bedroom suite to grab blankets and fuzzy socks, his shadows dripping behind
Anastasia“They’ll do what’s best for her.” Ziva’s reassurance filled me with a nice hit of calm. “They may be sexy, fumbling cavemen, but they’ve got good hearts. Even Ghost’s mean ass clearly cares about her.”Fallon shuffled out wearing the grey sweatshirt and pants the medical center had given h
I looked at the others. “South? So that’s the direction she was traveling.”“Yes, it looks like it.” Minister Tremblay replied. “The unit we sent out came back a few days ago. They tracked her for a little over two miles before the trail went cold.”“And how far of a net did they cast at the dead zo
Anastasia“Fallon was unresponsive when she was first found. Doctors believe she went into shock from traveling as far and long as she had. Initially, she was severely dehydrated and malnourished. Our experts say her wolf did not have the necessary strength to come forward and provide her body with
We were an hour away from Vancouver General Hospital when we received a call that the Canadian government had picked Fallon up and now had her in holding. That was both a good and a bad thing.She was safe from the humans in the hospital, but whoever was taking these wolves were clearly in positions
AnastasiaWhen one-by-one the guy’s eyes glazed over I knew they were being mind-linked.For the second time I was kept out of the loop. Left stewing with questions, drowning in confusion, not trusted enough to know what was happening as it happened.“Maybe we should freeze time and pinch them all.”
The server paused as he realized I was right. Worry and even a glimmer of fear flickered within his eyes as he forced a smile. “A-Another, Luna?”I didn’t look at Caius as I said, “Yes, if you will.”Like most men, my husband wasn’t one for being ignored or disobeyed. Since I refused to look his way
This was all likely just my daddy issues rearing their ugly heads.“I mean he did buy us stuff, protect us from bad guys, take us on dates, and gave us lots of orgasms. Plus he rubs our feet and checks out our ass when he thinks we’re not looking.” Ziva said. If she had fingers I knew she’d be ticki
Anastasia“She’s been found North of Vancouver by two hunters who veered off path. Unable to tell her condition. It’s been difficult getting in contact with Canadian authorities. They’re taking her into custody.”What they didn’t say was if it were Fallon or Fallon’s corpse.Within an hour we were s
