Lisa’s POV

I had to believe the evidence of my eyes. This was a vampire seated to my left, a gorgeous woman with the ageless beauty of her kind. She didn’t belong here, I sensed that much, and yet she was in no hurry to leave.

“Hi there,” I said, wincing internally.

She wasn’t a fellow tourist seeing the sights, rather a ruthless opportunist who seemed to be sated. For now.

“If you are wondering who bid me enter, my dear, let me tell you that notion is a fallacy.” The creature examined her long talons, one by one. “Let’s just say I have an open invitation.”

That curtain was billowing gently every so often. I guessed someone had deliberately left a window open.

I decided to adopt a practical rather than an accusatory attitude. It seemed to work.

“Is Jake – will he be okay?”

The woman laughed and I could only stare at the vein which wasn’t pulsing in her throat. That alabaster complexion was almost worth dying for – almost.

“I didn’t turn him, if that’s what you are alluding to, little

    Amy’s POV I saw him through the glass windows of the Hilton, sitting on a high barstool as if he didn’t have a care in the world. At some point he had been back to the room and changed into a sharp suit. This wasn’t fair. Perhaps I’d dawdled. I kept debating with myself whether or not I should contact Anastasia out here in the open. I had my ear buds, didn’t I? But the thought of voicing my suspicions aloud left me silent. My mind could think of only one subject: how to resist Kane. That probably explains why I took a wrong turn and had to retrace my steps. These avenues all looked alike and now there was a persistent drizzle to contend with. Yet the more I thought about it, I was convinced the document transcribed from a diary – and I wasn’t sure how I knew that – wasn’t in code, just an old language. Probably Native American. Laughing at my folly, I soon sobered when I began to wonder if I would get away with lying to the Alpha yet again. Soon there was nothing for it but to en

    Lisa’s POVI wasn’t sure if I should ask, or not. Jake wasn’t present, so I wouldn’t come in for any criticism from him unless he found out about my indiscretion later.“Who’s Mina?” I queried, spreading butter on some brown toast.If I caused a panic I could always claim I’d dreamt about her.There was a newcomer at the table, who stared at me assessingly as she pushed scrambled egg around her plate.“I’ll let you explain, sis,” she said.Diana Chase had taken great pains to introduce herself to me as a “fellow Alpha’s daughter” from day one. There the similarity most definitely ended. Her morals were questionable but at least she kept Michael away from me.Unlike Jake, I knew the Alpha King’s intentions towards me were strictly dishonourable, though he had yet to make the demand I dare not refuse. He was absent, as well, but I thought I could hear his voice somewhere outside.“Not now,” she said. “The Lycan is about to join us.”Did she have a sixth sense or something where he was c

    Kane’s POVI could tell from Amy’s reaction to my overtures in the elevator how very aroused she was and I was in no mood to let this opportunity pass me by. When the doors opened I was still clutching her boobs, while her token struggles led an elderly human to ask if she wanted her to call the cops.Releasing her at once and putting my hands in the air, I saw the naughty smile on her lips. No, she wouldn’t, would she?“My husband’s way too keen to start our honeymoon,” Amy told the sharp-faced old biddy, who tutted. She actually tutted.“Young people nowadays. No shame,” she said, reminding me of my grandmother.This wouldn’t do; my erection was diminishing by the second.Once we were in our bedroom I pinned her up against the wall beside the door and parted her legs with my knee.“Details,” I hissed.“It was just the once,” she lied, enraging me. “I used a vibrator in the toilets at high school, but I didn’t know what I was doing.”“And the second time?”“Why won’t you believe me,

    Jake’s POVAll these nubile she-wolves were making me over-excited. It didn’t take much. Sadly, most of them were off limits, except for Lisa and possibly Diana depending on the Lycan’s whim. Ingrid I wasn’t sure about.Given that I wanted to know more about the tasty one before I embarked on a ‘friends with benefits’ arrangement, and that Errol could be a high ranking member of Michael’s pack, I decided to pursue my little mate in earnest.Once the swim was over I convinced her to come back to my room with a combination of coaxing and the threat of abandonment, if not. Her hair was still wet and so was her tankini. I pointed out my swimwear was sodden as well but it made no difference, she just had to go and change.Throwing on some pants and a shirt, I waited for her impatiently. The diary was calling to me and then I had a brainwave. Wouldn’t it be interesting if I read it aloud to her?Of course, I did no such thing. That would be an immediate turn-off for one of us.I soon found

    Kane’s POVMaybe I was disorientated but I couldn’t recall fingering Amy on the plane at any point. Sure, I’d tightened her seatbelt and watched her sleeping. The rest must be down to her lurid imagination.I found it hilarious, too, that she believed I’d deliberately snapped the elastic in her panties. In fact, I’d tried my best not to do so.Leaving her frustrated hadn’t been intentional, though it perhaps explained her skewed perception.“That must have been some dream,” I said, causing her to stomp away, one hand still hovering below her waistline.My chauffeur was waiting impassively and stowed our cases without a word. I didn’t want to ask.Amy was less discreet. On this occasion, I applauded her for it.“How is Luna Truman?”“You can answer her, Connors.”“I’m sorry, Alpha. It’s not good news. Word is, she’s fading fast.”I slammed the seat back in frustration.“How did this happen?”He knew better than to offer up a theory.My companion clutched my arm.“I am so sorry, Alpha K

    Jake’s POVDiana spotted the diary immediately. She wagged a finger at me, saying I was a naughty boy. We’d hunted high and low in her room first and I was still thinking about how she looked bending over.Now we were in mine and I was determined to call the shots.“Are you missing anything else?” I asked.“Such as?” she purred.“You tell me.”“Sorry, Jake. You’ll have to give me a hint.”I strolled across to the chest of drawers. When I eventually held up the undergarment in question, her cheeks became rosy.“Oh, those,” she said. “I thought Michael wanted a souvenir.”“Why would he, given he has access whenever he commands?”“Is that what you think? Then you’re a fool.”“Hey, apologies if I’ve offended you, Diana.”“Miss Chase to you.”This was going to take some retrieving. Or was she just playing hard to get?“Fancy a little role play?” I asked, going over to my closet and showing her the cane I’d found.“What about something less obvious?”I thought I heard a creak outside the do

    Kane’s POVI was shocked when I saw Grandmother looking so frail and wan. Even so, her grip was strong, and I lowered my face to hers, allowing my lips to brush her pale cheek.“Leave us,” I said to Selene, who was hovering without aim.She opened her mouth to protest and hesitated. I knew it was what she really wanted, to leave this place which bore all the hallmarks of sickness and impending death.For once, I couldn’t blame her.“They got me, Kane,” Dorothy whispered. “I wish I’d been more careful.”“I should never have left the pack.”“Nonsense.”The choked word brought on a coughing spasm which lasted for long minutes. Knowing what usually followed I searched for her inhaler, but she waved it away.“We’re still waiting to hear from Elvis,” I said.Her lips cracked into a smile and I realised how that sounded.“I made a list,” she said.I found it afterwards. It was headed, “People I don’t trust,” and I marvelled both at the simplicity of it and at the sharpness of a dying brain.

    Lisa’s POVTo say I wasn’t shocked by what was happening inside was shocking in itself. Then there was Michael, the powerful Alpha King, and a man I feared. He spirited me away as they were on the point of leaving, bypassing the alcove I’d expected him to secrete us in and heading for the stairs leading to the upper level.I knew only too well what was up there yet I was trying to block the fact out of my mind.Glancing back, I saw Miss Chase in her underwear and, just for a second, I envied her.It was beginning to dawn upon me that Jake was a no-good hustler and womaniser. Why hadn’t I seen it before?“What about lunch?” I murmured, as the Lycan unlocked the door to a room with a view.I was relieved to discover it wasn’t a bedroom. Nor did it contain a gaggle of harem women.“Let’s talk first,” he said.“May I have a glass of water? My throat gets very dry.”“Help yourself, Lisa.”Of course, he would have a fridge, even in an otherwise almost empty room like this one.“Can I get yo

    Kane’s POV It soon became clear that Miss McGregor wasn’t a rogue she-wolf. She explained that she’d been heading back to her pack above the border in Canada when her car got a flat. Jake had offered her a lift when he spotted her hitchhiking. She said he’d been on his own and never mentioned another female. I would question him later. Expecting my Luna to burst through the door and start what the humans called a cat fight, I can’t say I was disappointed when she didn’t. After a brief lecture on how lucky Miss McGregor was not to be considered guilty by association, I stood up and looked her in the eye. “You can go,” I announced. She cocked her head on one side, regarding me critically, and I knew it wouldn’t be quite so easy to dismiss someone like her. Not without proceeding to formally reject her. Faith Isla McGregor beat me to it, not even hesitating over my surname and the name of my pack. I couldn’t believe the nerve of that she-wolf. It didn’t seem to cause her much pain,

    Lisa’s POVI was pleased to see my brother so happy and even unbent enough to invite Amy to tea. Kayleigh was there, moping a little, but she brightened up when she saw the Luna. Noah was supervising the border guards. Again. I’d pouted a lot until he told me Kane was thinking of appointing another Delta.He swore me to secrecy afterwards, but Amy knew. Of course, she would.“Does this mean there will be two Alphas again?” I asked, when my daughter was paying a visit to the bathroom.“No chance,” she said. “But it’s cool. Kay looks much better.”“Do you think so? I wish she would cheer up.”“She’s been through a lot.”Did the Luna think I didn’t know that?“Have a scone. Fresh from Ray’s bakery.” My visitor hesitated. “Go on. Take one at random. I haven’t poisoned them all,” I joked. To prove that, I selected one with blueberry jam inside and took a small bite. “Mm, delicious. I don’t know why I didn’t think of commissioning your stepfather to bake my daughter’s special cake.”“He’s n

    Kane’s POV“If I’ve won, I want you to … ”Amy whispered the rest.“What? No way,” I said, and went on to issue a stern warning.Just for a second there I was tempted to cheat, claim she'd lost. Until –“Be nice,” she hissed, putting emphasis on the second word and fiddling with the knot on her blindfold.I watched her struggle for a while – why didn’t she just lift the whole thing over her head? – before going across to the monitor and calling up the incriminating evidence.“You won’t like it,” I warned her, again.That had been a part of my reply when she said, “Show me the footage of you and Omega Sharon. All of it.”As if there had been other encounters in the past.The truth was laid bare, making her huff with contempt.“Satisfied, Luna?”“I thought as much. She was faking it. On your orders?”“Yeah,” I managed, feeling like I’d just crawled out from under a rock and couldn’t find my way back there.Exposed, just like Amy, yet in a very different way.“She must have told everyone

    Amy’s POVIt soon became apparent that Jake was lost to us. I missed Ingrid, too. Was he treating her right? I hoped so.Mom was inconsolable for a whole week and then, in typical Velma fashion, she moved on. That must have been something to do with Ray. One for the homilies, he was. She kept twittering on about my brother making his own way in the world.As far as I was concerned, he’d always been rogue material.I was biding my time to catch Kane off guard and then I would strike. In the nicest possible way, of course.It wasn’t long before we were back to sharing the same bed again. His hands kept straying to my tummy. So much for emergency contraception.I’d been feeling really sick in the mornings, something I’d not experienced much the last time around. Making him wait fit in well with my plan.Coaxing him back to our quarters that afternoon, I had a surprise in store in the form of a new game.This time, my intention was to win, though I allowed him a say in the ‘rules’ we were

    Lisa’s POVSomething was off about the atmosphere in the nursery. Dan usually got the blame but this seemed different. Even more unwholesome, if that was the right word to use about my only nephew.I didn’t visit the pups with my daughter any more. She was sensitive and tended to kick off if she knew we were going there.Noah and Kayleigh were closer than ever. I tried not to resent their easy relationship while I had to work at it. Maybe she sensed my annoyance and that was why she clung to the Delta when he came home to us. Or could it be that because I was always around she missed him more?I told myself that was it even though it bugged me. A lot.Picking up Dan’s rattle one day, I felt a surge of power. Static electricity, I thought. It didn’t plug in, that was for sure.He went ape until I gave it back to him.Dora wasn’t like that. She didn’t seem to mind when he took her toys off her. Maybe she was in awe of him – or frightened. I couldn’t be sure and knew better than to menti

  • Alpha Kane's Revenge   Chapter One Hundred and Thirty - Heart To Heart

    Amy’s POV The pups were hard work but I became engrossed in what was mainly pandering to their needs. It gave me time to think. I didn’t miss the decisions I had to make, the daily squabbles which had to be sorted between maids and Omegas. They were trivial in the scheme of things. It made me smile to think of the Alpha dealing with petty rows about dirty looks and the more serious allegations of slacking, which tended to be unfounded for the most part. Some of the older servants had heart conditions and they needed more regular breaks. If he reinstated punishment in what had been CC’s room I knew I wouldn’t be able to sleep at night in that same bed. Yet I couldn’t stop him. I had no say and wouldn’t be aware of anything like that given that I was stuck here for the most part, even for meals. He deserves to know. Misha, now’s not a good time. Do it. Or Rhett will tell him. Are you threatening me? My wolf didn’t answer, retreating to sulk, presumably. I knew she was right. The

    Amy’s POVSomething was going on. Something I didn’t understand. People were murmuring to each other and occasionally gazing at me. Was I paranoid? This had happened to a human at school, all because she had a fondness for snacks between meals.Suzie’s a renowned pie maker these days. At least she was.They’re not sniggering any more.Someone asked Chrissy in a loud voice if there was any Sharon fruit, to general titters. I didn’t get the joke. At least not until later when she knocked on the door to our Suite.I was tossing and turning in what had been the pleasure room.“You sent for me, Alpha Kane. And here I am.”“Give me a twirl,” I heard him say.What? I wanted to jam the pillow over my head, but I was curious.“Do you like it? I sewed it myself in my spare time.”“Very fetching.”There he went again with those old-fashioned words. Was I the catalyst, being around Mina and not ‘suffering’ myself. Still, I was proud of my extensive vocabulary so perhaps it was less noticeable wit

    Kane’s POVCC told me more than once that a good whipping would convince anyone not to re-offend. I didn’t subscribe to that notion. My belief was that discipline should be relative.Amy had failed as a Luna when she allowed the rogue she-wolf to abduct her without a fight. I intended to pit her against Lori, an up and coming female warrior, who had once shot her by mistake. That should serve to punish both of them.Maybe I would sell tickets, for charity of course.My Luna had betrayed me by succumbing to my former Beta’s kiss. At the same event, maybe I could have my pack members – men and women – line up to claim her lips. Standing up for hours, hungry and thirsty, her mouth swollen and parched. That would teach her.And now I had found the blister pack containing something which fuelled my fury yet further.A public whipping seemed highly appropriate.I knew I would put her through none of the above. She had always been mine to ruin.If it wouldn’t hurt our twin girls I would have

    Kane’s POVIf I had to absorb Blaylock, surely Garrett would help me control him? I could only hope. Asking Rhett would just depress me, because I already knew the answer.My priority was to rescue my cousin’s girl. We had a date to watch a movie for fuck’s sake. And Noah would surely not survive a prolonged invasion even though he’d been doing better recently. I needed my Delta and Kayleigh needed her stepdaddy.As for Lisa, words failed me. Her scream had alerted us and yet she must have been the one to lure the mage upstairs. My guess was she’d visited the lab and seen him.I was hoping to save him, too, if only by hosting the Lycan wolf once more. Though the mage was way down the pecking order. Probably last.In fairness, it didn’t seem as if Amy and Jarvis were lovers or even planning to be. Yet the crisis had elevated a level. Maybe they were just biding their time.I knew I couldn’t afford to think like that once Blaylock was in situ. The ancient Lycan would probably pounce on
