Alpha Enzo 120 | FORESIGHT, MAGIC, AND STRENGTH
Enzo’s POV I blinked into a sudden burst of gossamer sunlight. “Scarlett,” I rasped, choking up blood. All of me hurt, save for my heart. That was lighter than it had ever been. She was okay. She was a vision in the dying light, her auburn hair with its blonde ends glimmering softly, like the shimmering surface of a ruffled lake; her beautiful blue-green eyes wide, shining with unshed tears; her stance strong and proud and powerful, even as she fell apart at the sorry sight of me. “Fuck,” she whispered, her eyes filling. “Enzo. Oh, God…” “I’m okay,” I grunted. It was a lie. A dying man’s lie to make the love of his life feel better. Blood streamed from my neck; my body felt numb from my face down. The pain was gone, but my feeling was gone with it too. I was outside now, and I’d definitely been inside the last time I’d been conscious. Had my body been trampled beneath the paws of hundreds of Ryker’s wolves? In the heat of battle, it was just as likely that my own pack had buried m
Alpha Enzo 121 | THE END OF THEM
Bennett’s POVI was dying. Such a fact was two things: simple and irrefutable. To fight it was futile; to ignore it was idiocy. But I had done as I had been bid by the visions that had plagued me since birth. I had fought the prophecy and, I hoped, saved the world from the tyranny breeding at its wolven heart.It was hard, seeing the world in pathways and possibilities. Even now, as I lay upon the gleaming white floor of Moose Creek’s medical centre, sedative spilling through my veins and blood streaming from my chest, photos of the futures forking from this moment blinded me. I saw Scarlett stood amidst the dead, the only survivor in a war she’d never asked for. I saw her bent over her mate’s body, sobs wracking through her. Then I saw her fumble for the outstretched claws of a fallen werewolf and use them to slit her own throat.I squeezed my eyes shut at that one. It did nothing to halt the visions, of course, but it always made me feel as if I had some semblance of control over
Alpha Enzo 122 | TRANSFORM
Scarlett’s POVI opened my eyes.Sunlight blinded me. No – not sunlight. My own light, golden and magical, surrounded me. Held limp in its grip, it lifted me into the air.But I – I’d been dead. Hadn’t I?I remembered the feel of my life leaving me. I remembered losing my energy, my strength, feeling my body wilt beneath the weight of the magic tearing through my veins and rushing out through my palms. But now the wind was here, holding me, healing me, and I felt it dance across my skin, through my hair, as it pulled my arms out and pointed my legs down towards the ground. I remembered dying.But that wasn’t all I remembered. Vague, fuzzy shapes filtered into my mind, taking form as the light raised me higher and higher. I saw humans, knew their names, saw Adelaide, saw a city and a death and a chase, saw Bennett and a library and Enzo – My beautiful Enzo. How could I ever have forgotten all that we had shared?The memories poured in as my brain healed, the light coming from within
Alpha Enzo 123 | EPILOGUE
Bennett’s POVThings had taken a while to fall back into place after the battle. With the pack house left in ruins, Scarlett and Enzo had worked with his parents to rehome everyone that lived inside it while it was rebuilt. His mother and father had stayed close, lending their expertise as they got to grips with navigating life post-Ryker.They hadn’t been the only ones to stay, though. I’d asked to remain in Moose Creek. Enzo had accepted my cagey reasoning with narrowed eyes, but he would’ve said yes to just about anything with his mate’s hand on his arm. In truth, I didn’t know where else to go now. Everything in my life had been building up to this. Crafting prophecies for people to find, leaving breadcrumb trails, making messages, telling everyone just the right thing at exactly the right time – I’d never known a moment to myself. Now that was all I had. And I couldn’t See my way forward. Not anymore. I’d told nobody that Scarlett hadn’t been the only one to lose her powers t
Alpha Enzo 001 | THE MATING BALL
Scarlett’s POVI ran my hands down the front of my dress. Nerves made my stomach sway from side to side and bile rise in my throat. I swallowed hard, keeping my eyes fixed firmly ahead – and firmly away from Alpha Ryker.“Come on, Omega.” His raspy voice was too close to my ear as he grabbed my elbow and dragged me forwards, forcing me towards the swelling crowd under the marquee. My palms started to sweat, but he’d punish me if I tried to wipe my hands now. He’d bought me this gown, after all – every inch of its gauzy, flowing silk belonged to him. Just like I did. “Hurry up.” He shoved me again; I stumbled. “Would you prefer to return to the pack house, Omega?” Alpha Ryker’s voice dipped into a growl, and it took everything in me to keep from shuddering. “No, Alpha.” I ducked my head, my cheeks flushing. But I’d say or do anything it took to attend the Mating Ball tonight.“Say sorry.”My face burned. “I’m sorry,” I mumbled.“Say: ‘I’m sorry, Alpha.’”I curled my hands into fists
Alpha Enzo 002 | A WOLFLESS WEREWOLF
Enzo’s POVI looked down at my watch. I rocked back on my heels. I sighed. “Are you ready yet?” There was a tremble in my mate’s voice – Scarlett’s voice, I corrected, though even thinking the word mate sent a flush of heat roaring through me – as she replied. “Nearly, Alpha Enzo. I’m sorry.”“Don’t be sorry,” I said, my eyebrows pinching together. Why would she be sorry? What did she have to be sorry for?I frowned at the closed door. She’d not let me follow her into her room, though she’d given me no explanation as to why – but her pretty face had reddened and her upturned, blue-green eyes had glittered. She’d turned away quickly, her auburn hair whipping through the space between us, creating a physical barrier that had made me wonder if she truly wanted me to claim her.She was mine, after all. Despite my impatience, a smile pushed at my lips. I’d waited four years for this and, though I knew nothing about her, about my Scarlett, I knew that she was perfect for me. I scrubbed a h
Alpha Enzo 003 | THAT'S MY SECRET
Scarlett’s POV“It’s not a trick,” I snapped – only to immediately feel the hot rush of blood warming my cheeks and neck. My gaze dipped to the floor again, and I waited for my punishment to come. What would it be today? A kick? A smack? A punch?“I don’t know what’s happening here,” said Enzo, his tone so cold I almost shivered. His hand wrapped tightly around my bicep – too tightly, hard enough to bruise – and he yanked me a step away from Alpha Ryker. “But I don’t want a mate that can’t shift.” He scoffed. “I’ve never heard of anything like that before. Are you sure you aren’t lying, Ryker? Do you want to keep her for yourself?”He tugged me further back. I wanted to squirm free, but I let him manhandle me where he pleased. I’d been Ryker’s servant long enough to know that fighting back only hurt more in the long run.“I’m not lying.” Ryker’s lips curled up into a sadistic grin. “Go on, Omega,” he purred, “shift for him. Prove me wrong.”“I – I can’t,” I whispered, shame crawling u
Alpha Enzo 004 | THE MOOSE CREEK PACK
Enzo’s POVI was going to kill him. My hand tightened on Scarlett’s as we stepped through the portal. The cold hit us almost instantly. I barely felt it; my rage burned so hot that I could’ve sworn the snowflakes melted before they even touched my skin.Alpha Ryker had hurt her. She wouldn’t admit it, but she didn’t have to. It was clear as day in the quiver of her lower lip and the distant look in those beautiful blue-green eyes.“It’s amazing,” she breathed, as we stepped out into a meadow, teeming with wildflowers and scraggy, dry grasses. The Canadian Rockies reached above the heads of the pines and firs in the distance, capped with snow, imposing against a blue sky that was crisp in a way it only ever seemed to be in autumn. Fat grey clouds drifted above, scattering snowflakes on the wind.My lips hooked up into a smile. “Yeah, I suppose it is.” “I know about the time difference, of course, but,” she paused, her lips parting as she spun on the spot, twisting as far around as sh
