Alpha Kane's Revenge Chapter Forty - A Reason To Trust
Lisa’s POV“You lied to me.”Maybe I shouldn’t have accused the Alpha King, a Lycan, of such a thing and in that tone of voice, but I was so angry.“Only about that one thing,” he said, gazing at my mother’s moving fingers.She was drawing a gazelle and it was so good to see.“Kane’s your sworn enemy because of her, isn’t he?”“Not just mine. He despises all the Lycan clans.”“Then why is he mating the daughter of one?”“Haven’t you worked it out yet, Lisa? He wants to be on the inside so he can discover her whereabouts.”I looked at him, anxiously.“Will you ever let her go? What about me?”“Come back downstairs and we’ll discuss it. I’m not the monster you might think.”I followed him with reluctance, leaving the woman who had given no sign she recognised me.“Thank you for trusting me with this.”I owed him my gratitude for that at least and had been brought up always to acknowledge a good deed.“You could have lied to me, pretended she was a stranger to you,” he said, pausing on t
Alpha Kane's Revenge Chapter Forty-One - One Alpha Too Many
Amy’s POV The scrolls were now in my possession for all the use they were. As usual, we’d been interrupted, thankfully given the way he was eyeing the bed in that room. I was under strict instructions to return them before midnight. Did he think I was going to sell them on the black market or something? There were a lot of figures, combined with names and dates, but nothing of significance leapt out at me. I was bleary eyed from consulting hospitality checklists of my own devising. Why was I so painstaking in this? For him or for her? I had given up trying to second guess myself. When I judged the hour was late enough and that Selene would be contemplating her beauty sleep in advance of the big day ahead, I made my way upstairs. Testing myself, I used the lift, noting the new bags under my eyes and that my long hair was in need of a twist or something. Alpha Kane wouldn’t appreciate my news, or lack of it, that was for sure. I entered once I had his shouted permission and was ast
Alpha Kane's Revenge Chapter Forty-Two - Jarvis
Kane’s POVI wasn’t myself and couldn’t seem to control my baser urges. Dorothy was nearing the end of her life. Only her she-wolf physiognomy had kept her going until now. It was driving me crazy. Still, that was no excuse for the way I’d behaved with Amy. What I’d put her through was unforgivable and now I had a Luna to appease.My Beta came to see me in the small hours. I heard his complaint to the bitter end, even though my head was splitting in two and I was seeing double.Had someone drugged me? It was a distinct possibility.“You need help, Alpha Kane,” he said.His sympathy was genuine. I had always liked Jarvis, a good man who would tell it to you straight.“Is Amy okay?”“She couldn’t stop crying,” my Beta told me. “Inviting Alpha Solomon was a step too far. In my opinion.”“I’m going to kill Selene,” I said, clenching a fist.“You didn’t know?”“I forbade it. Where’s Amy now?”“In my quarters. Alpha – ”I cut him off before he could explain that he was her mate.“Bring her
Alpha Kane's Revenge Chapter Forty-Three - Mating Ceremony
Kane’s POVI couldn’t call it off. Dorothy had wanted this. Strangely, I dreamt about her and was taken aback when she insisted she’d meant I should mate Amy. I knew what that was: wishful thinking on my part.Maybe that was why I claimed her in the shower. I promised myself it wouldn’t be for the last time.That question about what happened to my grandmother’s wolf refused to go away. Everyone assumed they passed with the person, but what if that wasn’t the case? They were eternal creatures. Perhaps I should watch out. Assuming the next host would be as fierce and no-nonsense as the old Luna.I grinned, remembering what she’d once said when I hadn’t realised I’d actually said it out loud.“Less of the old.”I hadn’t totally forgotten about the suspected treachery, though Amy and I could have been wrong.For something to do to keep my mind off my inevitable fate, I went to look through Grandmother's belongings and found a sealed envelope addressed to me. It was to be read in the event
Alpha Kane's Revenge Chapter Forty-Four - Reunited
Amy’s POVThe sun hadn’t exactly made much of an appearance, though there was a rainbow forming up above. I’d always liked the pretty colours and followed the human superstition of making a wish. Not for myself. I just wanted everything to go smoothly.That moment at the party when they’d played ‘Hound Dog’ had creased me. Who would have thought there’d be two Elvis’s always on my mind? I’d caught Kane’s eye and, just for a split second, we were on the same high frequency before I crashed and burned on seeing Selene.I mouthed the incantation while touching the centre of my pendant and soon I was in Massachusetts only a few metres from the diner. A digital clock on a pharmacy showed me it was close to 1300 hours. Time travel. How spooky was that? I’d only ever gone from A to B before in the form of a practice run when I accepted this mission.Slavery, after Jake’s selfish actions, had put an end to my freedom until I was appointed housekeeper.The distinctive aromas of fish and seafoo
Alpha Kane's Revenge Chapter Forty-Five - Missing
Kane’s POVSelene was pissed because I’d asked Chrissy to cover Amy’s role without consulting her. I was hoping she would punish me for undermining her authority by withdrawing sexual favours. No such luck. Her exaggerated sighs and moans were a total turn-off, leaving me questioning my potency.Those delectable desserts my housekeeper had introduced were quite literally off the table now. The pack warriors knew better than to complain, not so the older she-wolves.“How hard can it be?” my Luna muttered.She soon found out that it wasn’t all that easy to make a soufflé and her sponge cake lacked something indefinable. Burning pastry was her forte, though of course the Omega I had temporarily promoted bore the brunt of her wrath. In fact, my Luna started to blame Chrissy for absolutely everything and I demoted the girl for her own sanity.This time I was listening when she mentioned Barbara.It was clear by this time that Amy had left of her own accord. I played my ace, disclosing Jake
Alpha Kane's Revenge Chapter Forty-Six - Not A Mutually Beneficial Arrangement
Amy’s POVOnce again, Jarvis had missed out. I told myself this was only a mating of convenience. It seemed Michael had other ideas.Jake was keeping a low profile, or so I thought. Then I discovered he’d been banished.So much for Kane’s revenge.Would he take it out on this particular Lycan? I’d seen Rene’s condition and it wasn’t pleasant.He needed a strong Alpha female as his Luna and all he had was Selene. I supposed she would be giving the Omegas hell.As for the asshole himself, I missed him. You never forget your first love.First crush.I knew Misha was annoyed with me – but when was she not? She was frightened of the Lycan and said his wolf, Blaylock, was ferocious. Claiming I should be prepared to be torn apart when we mated wasn’t helping.Breaking the news that I wasn’t a virgin was necessary, if only for my own peace of mind. Should I claim Kane had forced me? It might make Michael more considerate. I didn’t know how to broach the subject and time was of the essence.If
Alpha Kane's Revenge Chapter Forty-Seven - The Lycan Factor
Kane’s POV We buried Dorothy in the woods as per her last request. I was still hopeful of recovering Amy though there was nothing new on that front. Maggie was distraught and I decided to have a consoling chat with her up in what had been Grandmother’s room. “Make it spick and span,” I told her. “I want to convert it into a nursery.” She looked surprised and also pleased. I grinned. “Just planning ahead.” She had to have a purpose and I had promised her there would always be a place for her here. The maidservant beamed. “It will be as spotless as ever, Alpha.” “Did you know?” I barked, startling her. “About Dorothy and my father.” Maggie nodded. “I didn’t put her up to it, if that’s what you’re thinking. Alpha, it was a last resort.” “Do you know why she hastened his end?” “Without Rene, he was out of control, Alpha.” “She didn’t have the right.” “Maybe not, Alpha. I took the key, but it wasn’t the same.” I stared at her. “Do you think I am becoming like him?” “Not any mo
