“Admittedly, I also had your phone tapped. The person you gave my car to, you let them keep the money. You protected them.”Heat stained my cheeks, “They’re a good person.”“I trust your judgement,” He replied. “It’s why I told Marjorie I didn’t believe her lies. I warned her never to lay a hand on
Anastasia I didn’t think, I just reacted. Swatting away the bullet mere feet from Caius’s face, I hissed as a rush of scalding pain danced across my palm. There was a quiet clink as the bullet hit the marble floor. Glancing down, I winced at the quarter sized burn etched into my flesh. It was red
“You saved my life,” he said. I swiped the blood from my nose, which caused his brows to furrow, and smirked. “You’re welcome, jackass.” His gaze flicked down to my nose, then to the rest of my body. I could see his confusion as he registered the numerous slices oozing blood down my torso. Knight
Anastasia The familiar ache of silver encompassed my wrists and ankles, which meant they were likely bound with the stuff. I didn’t dare twist myself to look down at them, fearful it would make the men retaliate. Even now they were murmuring to themselves, casting odd looks down at me. From their
The other men in the van rushed to catch their fallen comrade, when a familiar face popped into existence. Ghost melted from thin-air, his eyes black as night. In his hand was the blood-soaked blade that had gone through the throat of the male that had planned on raping me. He smiled at the others,
Anastasia “Well, there’s our ride.” Ghost flicked his chin at Caius, whose body was illuminated beneath one of the many streetlamps. Burn scar sneered, “You aren’t going anywhere.” “Tell that to him.” In the distance, Caius raised his arm. I gasped as several bolts of lightning erupted from t
Goddess, that hurt. There was nothing like the burn that came from pure silver. “Thanks,” I muttered once the cuffs were off. As Caius met my stare, I was sucked into his molten gaze, lost within the memory of him fighting to get me back. It was nothing personal. No, it had nothing to do with the
Anastasia When we finally returned to the winery the place was in shambles. Any ounce of playfulness was drained from me as Caius set me gently on the front of an SUV. Wolves with healing abilities quickly surrounded us. They fretted over Caius, who snarled and brushed them away. “Heal her first
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
