“So Kai’s position is called a Pakhan, and Konstantin is his Brigadier or second in command?” I asked Viktor, who was currently busy explaining how the hierarchy worked in the Bratva. He nods.
“Yes, you’re getting the hang of it. We don’t work according to the entire structure since we’re werewolves, and Kai basically runs legitimate businesses. He refuses to touch drugs, which is something a normal mafia boss would be itching to get their hands into.” He explains as we sit in the powder room area that overlooks Central Park.
It’s pretty exciting learning about a different mafia family, and from what Viktor has told me, there is a lot more to it than your average Italian mafia. There’s also much more honour amongst the Volkov family, something I am genuinely not used to.
Viktor looks at his wristwatch and sighs. “It’s seven, and I think you’ve learned enough for today, little wolf.” He says and stretches out on the couch. I s

Alpha Kai 19. Taste
Caterina I’ve been lying on this bed for the last hour and a half, mortified to death about my behaviour last night. My throat hurts from screaming so much, and my legs still feel shaky. Kai is still fast asleep behind me, his morning erection digging into my lower back. Oh, my gosh, how am I going to face him? He made me sit on his face and ride his mouth, pleasured me from the back, with both his fingers and tongue all while I begged for it! What the hell, three more days of this? I need to be chained up! His arm tightens around me, and I hear him groan as he snuggles into my neck. “Caterina,” he whispers my name, and it sends a shiver down my spine. “Good morning,” I answer in a small voice, my face burning in embarrassment, and I hear him chuckle. “What is this anxiety I smell? Are you remembering what I did to you last night?” he asks, gripping me tightly and grinding against my back. “Are
Alpha Kai 20. Gifts
Caterina It is only when Kai finally leaves that I am able to breathe properly. The last few hours with him have been filled with lust and need; I can’t breathe when I am around him. When he’s near, I have the filthiest thoughts, and he makes me want to act on them. Like when I sucked him off in the shower; how the hell! I would never have done that, but he makes me want every part of him. Damnit, the full moon needs to hurry up; I cannot sit with this need for another month! Taking a deep breath, I grabbed my handbag and was about to head downstairs when I noticed how heavy it felt. Frowning, then suddenly my eyes widen as I remember the hidden journals I had found! I could have been reading them all this time, but instead, I got hot and heavy with Kai last night. Gosh. Hiding them in my walk-in, I head out of the door to meet whoever my babysitter for the day would be. Thank God, it’s Viktor! He sees me approach and
Alpha Kai 21. Watching
Kai I’m trying to contain my anger right now, but I feel that resolve slipping as well. “Where the fuck were you? I thought I told you four not to let them out of your sight, now this?” I exclaim, pointing to the three hearts and severed heads taking up residence on my desk. Three more girls murdered, three more failures settling deep into my bones. “Boss, we literally followed them everywhere right up to the doorstep of their apartments and only allowed them inside after we did a sweep of the place, inside and out. We took turns watching the apartment and gave them space as you asked. But it was only when we went to collect them for work when we noticed they were missing and called you immediately.” One of my enforcers, Lee, spoke up. Pinching the bridge of my nose, I let out a frustrated sigh and dismissed them with the wave of my hand. I look at the ‘gifts’ left on my desk and grit my teeth in frustration. “How does
Alpha Kai 22. Journals
Caterina I could still feel its stare on me even as I sat on my bed at the penthouse. It felt dangerous and otherworldly, and I know it had its eyes on me. How did it know who I was? Trying to shake off my fear, I walk towards my walk-in and scratch around for those hidden journals. I had to take my mind off of this bad feeling, and I think this will help. Climbing back onto the bed, I take a wet wipe from my handbag and wipe the leather covers to reveal a word: Волков. I frown at this, then remove my phone from my handbag and search for a scan to translate app on the web. When I eventually found one and had the app translated, it did not surprise me at what it came up with: Volkov. These must be the ancestor journals! When I open the books, I sigh as I realise that the owner wrote both of them in Russian. Feeling like a spy, I opened the scan-to-translate app again and started my investigation. March 1801
Alpha Kai 23. Chained
Caterina I stayed up all night, wondering what Dmitry had meant by the term ‘hybrid’. Was there something sinister running in the Volkov genes? I waited for Kai to come home so I could discuss this with him, but he never pitched. Usually, he would come in late, but last night he didn’t even make it home; I wonder if something happened again. On second thought, Kai has so much on his plate already. I can’t exactly add that he might be a hybrid beast of some sort. This will only knock him down more, so I made up my mind to instead talk to Viktor about it when I see him today. It was 8 am when I eventually roused from my sleep with the knowledge that today would be the day Kai claims me as his mate. The nerves set in when I got out of bed and worsened when I stood under a cold shower. My heart sat in my throat as I dried myself off, and I tried to calm myself down, but nothing was helping. My eyes caught my reflection in the mirror, and
Alpha Kai 24. Failed
Caterina When I get back to the penthouse, I see a familiar body pacing the entryway and run to meet him. “Viktor!” I exclaim, wrapping my arms around his neck and breathing in his familiar scent, but something was wrong. I let go of him, realizing that he didn’t even hold me back, and when I look into his eyes, I see nothing but worry. “Caterina, I got her,” he says, then pulls me towards the powder room. We stand in front of the large windows, and he leans his head against it. I place a hand on his upper arm, and he looks towards me. “Tell me,” I say, but he shakes his head, and his face crumples up while he slides to the floor. “I can’t; you’ll be in danger as well. I thought I could trust him, but I was wrong! How could he do this to me?!” Viktor exclaims, sobbing silently. I sit down next to him and wrap my arms around him. “You need to go to Kai with this, Viktor. No matter what it is, you need to tell him.” I sa
Alpha Kai 25. Calmed
Caterina Kai never came. It was midnight when I went to Nikolai’s penthouse with a bodyguard in tow to let him loose and help him to the bed as he passed out. Afterwards, I eventually willed myself to fall asleep, without a mate and no one to claim me. Was something out there more important than me? It seems that I am left behind yet again and this time by the man who swore to protect me and claim me as his Luna. A whimper woke me, and something warm pressed up against my back. I opened my eyes, and for a second, I didn’t remember where I was - until his scent reminded me. Kai was in bed with me, his arm a vice around my waist. I sigh and check the time on the bedside table: 5 am. So he eventually came home, but not when I needed him to. My inner wolf curls up at the scent of our mate, and I find myself feeling incredibly happy even though my heart was steeped in misery. Another whimper, then a whine, and my eyes shoot open ag
Alpha Kai 26. Realization
Kai I awoke to the sound of the shower running and pulled myself out of bed. Last night’s events were still fresh in my mind; the smell of death, the feeling of the pack link snapping and finding Viktor’s body. I could even still taste his blood as I devoured his heart. Some fucking Alpha I am; I couldn’t even protect my own flesh and blood. Sitting forward on the bed, I lean forward and rest my elbows on my knees before letting out a sigh. What a fucked up few weeks. The shower stops, and a few minutes later, Caterina emerges and heads straight to her walk-in without so much as a glance towards me. I know she must still be reeling from the news about Viktor, as I found out that the two of them have gotten close over the last few days. That and the fact that my beast nearly killed her. Fuck, I need to pull myself together before I genuinely lose my shit, so I walk towards the bathroom with the intent of washing some of the gri

Alpha Kai Excerpt - Konstantin: The Heartless Beta
Prologue - Lily, 19 Years Old Given to the Russian mafia; my brother truly had no respect for me. How can I consciously describe the anger that I am feeling right now? Sitting on a million-dollar private jet and heading for New York, I feel like nothing more than a slave sold off to appease an Alpha, even if that Alpha looked like he had zero interest in me. How could my brother do this to me? After everything I have done to show him that I am worthy of being his Beta! After all the training I went through, the beatings, the abuse! He promised me that he would consider me for the role if I completed my training, but what did I expect from a beast who has murdered three of his wives? I clench my jaw, then look at the two men in front of me; both imposing and tall with the air of Russian royalty about them. Kai Volkov was everything the rumours said and more; tall, built like a panzer tank, and no emotion evident in his blue eyes. The i
Alpha Kai Alpha Kai - Epilogue
Kai I watch Caterina as she sleeps, and as usual, a smile spreads on my face. This woman has brought me nothing but happiness, and now that she’s pregnant with my child and heir, you can bet your ass that my overprotective nature has doubled. Yes, this does tend to annoy her, but what she doesn’t understand is that even though I am overprotective, my beast is a thousand times worse. It takes a lot of willpower to shut him down when she lets out a sigh or looks worried - I love her deeply, but he… he’s another story altogether. It’s 6 am, and I get up to start my day. Things have calmed down after the deaths of the vampires. I know a new den will start up in the absence of Westcott, but we will be prepared for them when they do arrive. Our new coven of witches arrived last night with nothing but goodwill and blessings; it irks me a bit because these witches hail from Norway, and I despise their evil nature. I make my way downst
Alpha Kai 60. Caterina Volkova, Luna, Goddess, Mother.
Caterina I killed Nikolai; I murdered the youngest Volkov, and as I stand in front of his burning pyre, this is all that runs through my head. No one blames me. Of course, they wouldn’t, but whenever I close my eyes, I can see Nikolai’s face looking up at me with pleading eyes as I tear him in two. This IS my fault, no matter how they look at it or how much they deny it. Kai takes my hand in his and kisses the back. “Let's go home,” he says, leading me back to the car. I’ve been wracked with guilt ever since we came home from the DA Westcott’s place. The brothers set the place on fire and made it look like a disgruntled former caseworker did it. Knowing that I summoned something dark to do my bidding scares the hell out of me, and the fact that it killed every vampire in his lair terrifies me to my core. The Volkov Witches told Kai about their part in everything, which included making sure Kai mated with me and fulfil
Alpha Kai 59. Fenriz
Konstantin I’ve felt Fenriz’s eyes on me this entire time; does he know something that I don’t? Ever since he arrived a few hours ago, he’s been shooting me death glares, and I still don’t know why. Well, I think I understand why. Word got to him that I claimed his sister as my second in command, so perhaps he wants to ask me about her. Fuck, I hope he doesn’t because I haven’t exactly told him that she left my side almost three months ago. “Konstantin,” his gruff voice cuts through my thoughts as he walks over to me, shifted back to his human form. “I believe Lilith has been under your care this entire time. How is my little sister?” The question I have been dreading has come, and when I look at him, it is with feigned boredom. “I wish I knew; she left a few months ago after she found her mate-” Fenriz has me pinned against the wall before I can even finish my sentence, and when he looks at me, it is with double crimson Lycan
Alpha Kai 58. Vampire
Caterina DA Westcott leaves the basement again after pinning me to the ceiling with chains drenched in wolfsbane. He’s expecting me to perform some sort of miracle and turn him into a hybrid. I think he’s watched too much Vampire Diaries, if you ask me. A Wolf/Vampire hybrid? Is he insane? Not only does that cross taboo, but it is entirely unheard of. I’m the vessel of a Goddess, not a goddamn magician! But if I don’t come up with something in the next two hours, my torture will continue again. He’s placed me in a chamber made out of pure silver, so I can’t even call for help through the link if I wanted to. Who told him about me? About the prophecy? Someone close to us is leaking information, and I don’t think it is only Dominik Volkov. I don’t think Kai can survive another betrayal of someone close to him, and by the looks of things, I might know who it is. It pains me to think of it, but I will remain quiet until I
Alpha Kai 57. Dominik
Kai Someone has taken her, someone who has no scent and left my brother for dead. I will tear this entire fucking town to shreds if it means finding her. They took something that belongs to me, and they will fucking pay with their bloodline. No one touches what is mine and lives - no one. “Kai, we need to regroup and catch her scent before it completely disappears,” Kon says as we put Dimitri into his truck. “Who the fuck knew we were coming here?” He asks, but we both already know the answer to that. We've been planning to get the asshole for days now. “Dominik, who else?” I answer, walking to my car with nothing but murder on my mind. He will pay, and I don’t give a shit if he’s my uncle or not. “I’m coming, Caterina,” I say through the link, hoping it gets through to her, but it remains silent. This has just become personal - real fucking personal. Kon tries to get my attention through the link, but I drown
Alpha Kai 56. Ride
Kai I look over at Caterina riding shotgun, and pride swells in my chest. She did it; she killed the one who caused her so much pain while growing up, and she did it without even blinking. I heard the gun as Carlotta shot it, but I wanted to see what Caterina would do. Watching her as she held her sister by the throat sent a jolt straight to my cock, and it hardened even more when she ripped out her heart. Fuck, what this woman does to me! “Please stop staring,” she says as a smile tugs at her lips. “You’re making me nervous.” I chuckle then glance at her before looking at the road again. “I can make you feel something else if you want?” I say with a wink. She giggles then shakes her head. “You’re unbelievable!” Glancing at her again, I see that she tries to hide the smile forming on her lips. Caterina had no idea just how strong she could be, that she could command an army if she put her mind to it. I know her
Alpha Kai 55. Brooklyn
Caterina Could I truly face Carlotta after all this time and keep my cool? She has constantly humiliated me in the worst ways and coveted what I had. I am filled with anger and hatred towards her and what they all put me through in the past. My family loathed me and made me a rogue after I left, knowing full well that it would hurt me. Did Carlotta know that I was not a true member of the family after all? It would explain why she has always hated me. I suppose that I would never truly know her reasons for hating me, and to be honest, I didn’t care anymore. Dressed in jeans, a t-shirt and boots, I head down to join Kai again and prepare for the day ahead. I am pretty surprised at the fact that I do not feel nervous at the thought of facing my family again. I loved them, even while living under their constant abuse and humiliation. Does that make me weak? I can’t help but think of Xamnir’s words while he held me aloft: “Sometimes love
Alpha Kai 54. Hatred
Kai I’ve been up since before the sun came out, just laying next to Caterina and watching her sleep. Last night was incredible; every sexual encounter I have ever had paled in comparison to what I experienced with her. She made me feel…whole. It’s not just that, but she loves me; she loves this fucked up person who murdered both his parents and a coven of witches when he turned 18. How did she not see the filth I saw when I looked in the mirror? Whatever the case may be, I will protect this woman with my entire life and would rather perish before harm comes to her. She stirs in my arms and lets out a small sigh before settling again. I hold her close and breathe out a sigh. Today I will walk into Brooklyn to decimate the Onyx Myst pack. I’ve had enough of their fucked up ways and constantly provoking my pack to violence. To this day, I still don’t know why they had always seen us as a threat when we never had any real issues w
