Kane’s POVTo her credit, my runaway housekeeper who wasn’t kept her cool. She even went on the offensive, asking in a calm manner, “Where’s Gamma Harriet?”“Why?” my Luna demanded. “Surely you must know your wiles won’t work on her?”I appraised Amy from head to foot, liking what I saw immensely. What I didn’t like was the smell emanating from her; not foul, just alien. She’d been with another. It was not to be tolerated.“She does,” I said. “That’s why she’s been sleeping with the enemy. Isn’t that right?”I was hoping she would deny it. Instead her head drooped. Amy didn’t even claim he’d forced her. That I could probably have borne a little better.“This doesn’t look good, Amy,” my Beta told her.“I know, Jarvis,” she said, biting her lip.I growled.“Let’s not forget why we’re here. I vote we take her back into the Crescent Moon pack.” Everyone was in agreement, even Selene. I thought I knew why. “As Alpha,” I continued, “I will decide on her punishment.” I hoped to have headed t
Amy’s POVThis was so unfair. I couldn’t even tell him of my pain, the harrowing treatment I’d received at the hands of the Lycan. I can’t pretend my love for him died as I took his cock in my mouth though, like a candle, the flame guttered.As I worked my magic, I hummed in my throat, hearing him groan, a satisfying sound. My reward? This time an easily raised skirt – well, I was distracted – and a whack on the butt to encourage me not to stop.This was humiliating and for some reason I felt I deserved it for allowing another creature to use me, even though my she-wolf instincts were to blame.No offence, Misha.She wasn’t answering and I suspected she was pining for Felix.Surprisingly, Kane pulled out rather than forcing me to swallow his cum. Instead, it landed on my torso, some of it even splashing on the tartan material down below.“Take it off, slave,” he said.I was way ahead of him; we’d been here before when he threw the bucket of water over me. Though I wasn’t looking forwa
Kane’s POVI came to my senses to find Lisa yelling at me. What on earth was she doing here in CC’s playroom? Maggie wasn’t far behind, though she remained silent, her lips pursed in disapproval. Or was it closer to disappointment?Saving face wasn’t a priority when I saw Amy struggling with Alpha Patrick. White hot anger consumed me and I started to shift. That was when his sons took him to safety and I began to realise I’d fucked up, badly.The whole thing was staged but I’d somehow zoned out and allowed it to continue beyond what was acceptable, almost as if I were possessed.I didn’t need to issue the command for Lisa and Maggie to remove my slave from my sight. That would have been overkill and posturing for the sake of it. Even my in-on-it audience had retreated and now the two women were bearing Amy away.She wasn’t hysterical, though she had every excuse to be.Mind linking my Beta, I asked him to smooth things over with the Alpha and his sons. I didn’t explain why, knowing he
Amy’s POV I felt like I’d been on a rollercoaster. Wild emotions left me feeling battered but not bruised. I couldn’t help marvelling at the way Lisa had rescued me. Maggie had warned her something like this would happen. How lucky was I compared to some? Kane was descending to new lows. Just when I was convinced I hated him, he held out an olive branch. In some ways it took me back to how it was with Mom. Sometimes there was no pleasing her. Afterwards, she would be contrite, so that I felt guilty for calling her. The Alpha didn’t inspire that kind of topsy-turvy acceptance of the way things were from me. I knew he wasn’t doing any of this deliberately. It was the Lycan blood making him behave this way. That set me thinking. If the Alpha King were to introduce the genes of his kind into every werewolf pack, soon we would be history. There would be only one way: the Lycan way. Fortunately, he was taking the other approach by sending our she-wolves elsewhere. That would only weaken
Selene’s POVI told myself I was sick of being faithful to Kane. In fact the opposite was true. But his treachery in promoting Amy yet again and his bored face at breakfast followed by the casual announcement that he would be taking her on a short trip made my hackles rise, though not where anyone could see.Mated Lycan females are a law unto themselves.It seemed he would be driving her himself. I sought out Jake, newly returned to the fold, and demanded he assist me. His punishment was on hold and yet to be determined. I hinted that helping the Luna may do him some good as I had the power to influence Kane’s decision and dissuade him from doing anything rash.Whether that was the case remained to be seen.So we followed them to Scarborough. Goddess knew why.The salon looked new and was staffed by humans. I could sense the smell peculiar to their kind. All bar one.I was jealous initially; my fair hair could do with a tint. Then I saw her face. She really didn’t want to be here.Wha
Amy’s POVEveryone was staring at Selene, but I knew what she was talking about thanks to some opportune eavesdropping in that old castle and later. It was to do with the dividing of wolfkind and Michael was keen to propagate another such event after actually propagating, if you see what I mean.Adverse propaganda could lead to another Schism, or split.We couldn’t fight a war on two fronts. It was bad enough the humans were turning traitor. Some of them. Those I knew.I tried to concentrate for the minutes yet was itching to speak up. What did I have to lose?Only everything.To be demoted again, even under this new enlightened Selene, would be devastating. And did her offering to help mean she had changed? Not where I was concerned, I felt sure.Clearing my throat, I took the coward’s way out and asked for a break. Did anyone want refreshments? That water must be lukewarm by now.Fortunately, Kane took the hint.“What’s wrong, Amy?” he said, as I approached him. “Have you forgotten
Amy’s POV When Kane broached the subject with me, I almost shrieked. Surely he knew how I felt about Lycans and Frederick in particular. After I had calmed down and listened properly, I felt better about the whole thing. It would be done here under supervision and my clone would be pretending to be me. The plan was for the alternative ‘Amy’ to go crawling back to the Alpha King and seduce him so effectively he would take her as his queen. Then the cyborg me would set about controlling him to scupper his world domination ideas once and for all. It all sounded dodgy in the extreme and something which could only have been dreamt up by a male. I didn’t much care for the notion of revealing Satyr’s likes and dislikes as experienced by yours truly down in that dungeon under the watchful eye of whoever he was. I didn’t think it was another Lycan somehow. Maybe a powerful human? None of that would matter if the Alpha King were to die, in which case we could send in an assassin. If only J
Kane’s POVSelene was sleeping over for once when my Beta mind linked to alert me of “a potentially serious situation”. I didn’t bother to cover my torso and could have cared less about my boxers being creased.When I saw that Lisa was with him, and also Amy, I had a re-think. My Luna brought me a robe at my request, though it was more to do with how I looked to my sister than my assistant.My mate was playing it coy, presumably because of her messy hair and the broken strap on her silk nightie. If it were just Amy standing there, I had no doubt she would have flaunted herself. In the old days, anyway.This was a new Selene and I was trying to give her the benefit of the doubt.My PA was muttering something under her breath.“Stop that,” Lisa cried, putting on a mean face.I was puzzled initially and should have been even more so when Jarvis asked, “Have you seen Amy recently?”Light dawned, at the same time as my Luna huffed.“He has me now,” she said, and stalked off into the bathro
