“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
Both Ghost and Damon looked ruffled. Their hair was out of sorts, and their suits were crumpled as if they’d been in the middle of a fight. Maybe that was how Ghost helped Damon. It wouldn’t be the strangest thing I’d seen. The three approached with Knight at the lead. “There were uh,” his eyes fl
If it were true, then I was taking it as a compliment. The first thing I did when we returned to the house was head directly to Caius’s private office where he kept the good whiskey. After downing a few shots, just enough to numb the pain of my still healing wounds, I plopped down in a chair and pr
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’
Her movements were slow, but faster than they were when she was lost within sleep. Little tremors went down her legs as my breath fanned across her clit.“Caius, is that you?” Sleep clouded her voice, and I quickly found my aching cock liked the sound.I kept my fingers still, not daring to move the
CaiusI was not going to fuck my sleeping wife.Not yet.The first time I decided to take her, and subsequently ruin her for all other men, I needed her to be awake. I would hunt her down, bend her to my will, and fuck the fight right out of her. I would both punish and praise her for being the cent
