Caius didn’t appear affected by her strange scent. If he was, he hid it extraordinarily well. His face was a mask of neutrality, his eyes flat and devoid of emotion. They warmed as they flitted down to my face.“Give your thanks to my fiancé. She and the event planner are responsible for tonight.” I
AnastasiaIn my quest to locate a glass of 1986 Chateau Lafite I ended up stumbling into a private conversation held between Alpha Nox, Luna Lilac, and their guests. I smiled warmly at Jada, Brick, and Shayla, thanking the Goddess there were a few friendly faces here tonight.My father had never spo
“Does Caius know about this?”“He’s aware, but we’ll let him know about this latest development before the night is through,” Luna Lilac brushed the issue aside. Suddenly, she grabbed hold of my hands. “I can’t tell you how happy I am to have met you, Anastasia. I can tell you’re a good person, whic
Anastasia“As satisfying as it was, you have no clue what you’ve gotten yourself into.”I tipped my head to the side and took a moment to drink him in. The all-black tux he wore reminded me of the shadows in the forest the night he chased me down. The night I felt every hard inch of him pressed agai
I wrinkled my nose, ignoring the hint of warmth that came at the mere thought of being hunted down by Caius. “How predictably barbaric.”His lips twitched as if he were fighting a smile, though it was quickly eclipsed by his usual scowl.“Anything goes during the Hunt.”“Anything as in murder?” I t
AnastasiaI began to walk around its perimeter, pacing back and forth as I allowed my thoughts to claim me. Sleeping with Alpha Caius wasn’t what filled me with such trepidation when it came to this stupid event. Of course I was nervous over that fact. I mean, what if he didn’t want me back? What if
It wasn’t until the bitter sting of cold water assaulted me, dragging me deep down into its depths that I was freed from the strange spell her scent had placed over me.It was then I remembered I didn’t know how to swim.“KICK! Kick, Anastasia!” My own internal screaming eclipsed Ziva’s frantic com
AnastasiaEvangeline’s jaw dropped, “Holy shit, bitch. You just found your—”“Evangeline,” I cut her off, desperate to keep her from finishing that sentence in fear that Caius would lose his mind entirely. Fisting my sopping wet gown, I looked down at the bodice and cringed. “Can you find us some dr
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
