2022-09-14 04:26:47The slow walk up the stairs was excruciating as I fought the urge to run. I didn’t want to alert my sister or cause suspicion. I didn’t utter a word and neither did she. The conversation with Father hung in the air between us. Would Shane hate me as much as I hate myself for what’s happened to him? I didn’t deserve to, but I wanted nothing more than to see him, feel him, kiss, and hold him. I couldn’t pay any attention to him downstairs and it gutted me. It took everything to resist running to him, checking if he was okay, and wrapping my arms around him. Doing so would have signed his death warrant.
Father wanted to see if I’d have a reaction to any of them. He wanted to see if I would give away any hint of emotion to try and weed out if there was any merit to the rumors. He wanted to know if the man I loved was among the men on their knees. I wouldn’t give it to him. I knew he would have killed them al

The voice on the other side of the door belonged to my father. What was I going to do? What could I do? Goddess. The body on the other side of the door slammed against the door. My bolt was holding strong but I knew it wouldn’t last for long. The sound quickened and I knew two people were taking turns throwing themselves against the door.“You can still get out,” I whispered. “Even if you had to climb down, they wouldn’t be able to get you! You’d be gone by the time they got down.”“They would be able to scent me and for all we know, they may already be set up downstairs,” Shane murmured. He took a step close and as much as I wanted to run, I stayed still. The tears streamed down my cheek, the sound of the door splintered, and Shane reached out to touch me. Sparks spread across my cheek as we made contact. I gasped as my eyes widened. Shane seemed unaffected as his thumb ran over my

Sitting up, I pulled him onto my lap. His eyes were closed and his breathing was haggard. I wiped his bloodied hair from his face. I could feel the flesh of his back. The chunks were raw and fell in different directions.“Shane?” I cried quietly.“Get him out of here,” Father ordered.“No, no, please. Fa—”I was cut off as his boot landed across my cheek. I hunched forward and covered Shane’s face. Protecting what I could, I’d failed him. This was all my fault. The men’s footsteps drew nearer and my grip on Shane tightened. I wasn’t going to let them take him. Hands came at me in different directions and I bit, slapped, and headbutted each one until arms wrapped around my waist. I started screaming.“No! No! Get off of me! Get away from me!”Shane was

ShaneI knew two things; one, Adea was my mate, and two, I might not live to keep my promise. The one where I would free her from her duty. I came in and out of consciousness as I was dragged down the stairs. Every time my head banged against the stone steps the world spun faster around me. Not a good sign. My body hurt everywhere but I was saving my strength, biding my time. I would not go down without a fight. I would play the role of the prisoner until an opportunity presented itself. I’ll give them this false sense of security and strength. Thinking they had me down. The one thing I had going for me was the element of surprise.They knew from my hair that I was descended from an alpha but they had no idea I was descended from the strongest alpha seen in the last 50 years. He was rumored to have been favored by the Moon Goddess. Even as a young child I had heard that my bloodline was connected to the Moon Goddess

Adea There was no word from Shane. I didn’t even know if he was still alive. That thought alone threw me into a great depression. It had been hard to get up from my bed this morning. I’d cried to myself to sleep worrying about him. I hated feeling so helpless, was there a way I could help him? No matter how much I thought about it, I came up empty. There was nothing that I could do to help him right now. Other than… obey my father. No one said anything and there was no one I could ask. Sitting in the sitting hall, I didn’t turn to look as the door opened and two sets of feet walked in. My wolf had awakened but she hadn’t talked to me. I could feel her presence. It was strong, she was strong. I could feel myself retreating. The thought of her not liking me hurt me deeply. My mind was preoccupied with thoughts of Shane. I could still feel him inside of me, his lips on mine, his hands on me. An intense need to see him again had uprooted my day. I yearned for news of him. “Stand,” Ava

“Have you done anything to earn my respect? I give respect where it’s due and you,” Korra shook her head. “You don’t deserve any of it.” My head whipped to the left as his hand came across my cheek. Pain exploded on the right side of my face. Ethan had hit me. “I’ll have to show you how to address your Alpha.” “You’re not my Alpha,” Korra hissed. “I am your mate!” Ethan growled. “You are not! That title belongs to another. You only seek to take what isn’t yours,” Korra spat. Korra was holding her own against him. “I will not bow to you, you disgust me,” she seethed. You can’t let him touch what isn’t his. We aren’t his. “I am your mate and your Alpha. The sooner you come to grips with the truth, the easier it will be for you. If I so much as smell another man on you, I will rip out his heart in front of you,” Ethan promised. “It is not I who needs to come to terms with the truth,” Korra said icily. Goddess. His hands gripped my waist and I was hoisted into the air and thrown on

“I don’t want to go back to my room, I just left,” I said. “I could care less about what you want, Adea. You’ve proven that you can’t be trusted. I can’t have you wandering around alone, you need to be supervised. I can’t have you disappearing the day before the celebration,” Ava said. Her hand slid up her chest and gripped her throat. “Father would have my neck if I lost you again. No, you will go to your room and wait there until I come to you.” “Let’s get you ready. We don’t have all day,” Ava said. The snark in her voice was clear and I was ready to call it a day already. Gabriel turned and pulled dresses from the bag. “These are the ones you chose last time. I’ve had them tailored to the measurements we took. Which would you like to try on first?” Gabriel asked. “They’re beautiful,” I said as my gaze trailed over the dresses. “Thank you. The order doesn’t matter.” Gabriel nodded and picked up the first dress. “You can step in there and undress,” Gabriel said. “I can take you

“Take her upstairs,” Ava demanded. “She has a habit of slipping out, so guard her door. Don’t let her leave.”The two warriors nodded at Ava and turned to me. Before they could grab me I turned from them and headed out. Had I been born a man I would have been their leader, my father’s heir. The throne he sits on would have been mine. I would have been the next Alpha and been the one to govern over this pack but because I was a woman, I was nothing but a pawn, a chess piece. One to be sold off at the highest price. My only use was how my father wanted to move me across the board.The unfairness of it all was enough to cause my eyes to prick with tears. It wouldn’t matter who Ava was or if she was the favorite child. I had been born first, I should have had more say. I was the one who should have had the power. I held my head high as I led the way out. A few men ran in front of me and I was forced to follow them out. As much as I wanted to, I didn’t look at Gabriel as I walked out the d

Loud knocking stirred me from a dreamless sleep. The last thing I remembered was a sky painted with hues of yellow, orange, and purple. I’d cried myself to sleep. When the knocking continued, I opened my eyes and pulled myself up. I could hear my sister calling from the other side of the door. She’s one of the last people I want to see. The moon lit up my room and I wondered how long I had been asleep. I pulled myself from my bed and made my way towards the door. As soon as I unbolted it, Ava pushed her way in.“What took you so long?!” Ava yelled.“What do you want Ava? I’m too tired to deal with your bullshit. I thought you were going to come in the morning. This,” I pointed out the window at the moon, “is not the morning and I don’t appreciate you barging in. In case you forgot, this is my room.”“Where did you go?” Ava asked. She completely disregarded everything I said. Every time I think she can’t get any more annoying she proves me wrong. She’s far from my favorite person but

Alpha Shane Happily ever after
Shane’s words are a shock to my system. Silence stretches between us, and I don’t know how long we sit there. I watched as he ran his lips against my knuckles before kissing the back of my hand. I can’t keep my eyes off of him, and as I stare at the side of his face, anger bubbles inside of me.What the hell is he thinking?Unlike the night I met him in this life, there’s no hate there. Shane emits love and patience, and if I hadn’t already spent the time that I had with him, I would have thought I was dreaming. His lashes are unfairly curled, his nose sharp, and as he straightens, I sigh as he runs his fingers through his hair. I don’t need memories of my past life to know that’s always been my favorite thing.Shane’s walls have come crumbling down, and now that I’ve got the man I love marked, and in bed with me, I can’t help but wonder why the fuck he’s here. His eyes meet mine and the corner of his lip pulls back until he flashes me with that panty-dropping smirk. Meanwhile, I’m st
Alpha Shane Broke
Shadow ~ LivingstonCry ~ Benson BooneAdeaSilence. Absolute silence. I couldn’t even hear his breathing. One glance at his chest proved he hadn’t taken a breath since the words left my mouth. I waited for his answer, but his next breath was all I got before he lifted me up. Supporting my weight, he turned and walked to the sectional. With him leaning back, it felt good being in his arms for this conversation.“Of all the things you could ask…”“You said you’d answer anything,” I reminded.“I did.”“But not this?” I asked curiously.“I will. Just… give me a minute.”“Okay,” I breathed.Lowering my gaze, I gave him a second. My fingers danced along his defined abs as I waited. His chest rose and fell and I glanced up as he ran his hand through his hair. My favorite curl rebelliously dropping back into place on his forehead. His jaw ticked, and I wondered if it was that big of a deal for him to appear, what I would call, pissed.“You had come to stay with me. When I heard you were home
Alpha Shane Ghost
AdeaShane’s heat vibrated against mine. He fit perfectly. Everything had been going so well and now it felt like the ground beneath our feet was shaking. My natural instinct was to look at his lips, to reach out for him, to beg him to make it go away like he had in the truck on the way here. But the time for running had past, and this was a hurtle I couldn’t avoid.There was nothing that could make me feel better about this situation. Images of Shane fucking a multitude of faceless, hot, nameless women flashed one after the other through my mind. No one could make me question my self worth, but when it came to him, Goddess, it was impossible to see how I could ever be enough. Beka walking into the space that’s supposed to be mine set flame to the gasoline that lay at our feet. But, of course, instead of making it better, Shane outright admitted he’d been with women. I wanted to laugh. Knowing he’d probably never turned anyone down until today left a bitter taste in my mouth. It didn’
Alpha Shane Understand
As soon as I came from the high Shane gave me, the anger came flooding back. And the bastard had the audacity to smile. I don’t know how he did it, but he saw everything. Well, I guess if we’d live multiple lives, he’d know everything about me. I didn’t understand why he could remember, while I couldn’t. His smirk turned into a shit-eating grin, pulling at both corners of his mouth, and my stomach flip-flopped. My pussy still spasmed in the aftermath of my orgasm, but Shane dropped his forehead to mine and laughed. I pushed against his chest, but with a twist of the wrist; I moaned and jerked against him. His shirt was soaked, and I spat it out. It was warm and wet where it fell against my thigh.Bastard.“What’s so fucking funny?” I snapped. Quickly, I swiped at the drool on my chin. The two parts of me waged a war; the one that loved him and the one that resented him. One second I was gushing for him and the next I wanted to punch the ass. His shoulders shook as he pulled his fingers
Alpha Shane Chained
Shane’s eyes held mine and I tracked the movement of his tongue as it slid along his bottom lip. His head dipped as he lowered himself, as if he couldn’t get close enough. And I watched as he ran his hard, flat tongue up my spread lips. I fought the urge to close my eyes and throw my head back. The need to revel in the pleasure Shane gave me was strong, but I couldn’t. His eyes darkened as he closed his mouth and his throat bobbed. And I was thankful I kept my eyes on him. His lashes fluttered as he savored my taste. Shane was more beautiful than the paintings hanging on the wall. He was a work of art and I could stare at him for hours, days, weeks; however long I could.“More,” I demanded.A rumbling sound sent goosebumps down my arms. My lips parted as his mouth opened and his pink tongue darted out. My thighs shook as I watched it flick over my clit. I widened my legs; needy for more, so much more. My fingers curled against his scalp and I pulled on his hair. Willing him to give me
Alpha Shane Tell me you want me
Aphrodite ~ Sam ShortInstinct told me I needed to protect myself. The need to wrap my arms around myself was strong, but Shane was everywhere. He lifted me and I wrapped my legs around his waist. My hands rested on his chest. He pressed a kiss to my hair, my forehead, my nose. Even as I wanted to escape this wretched feeling in my chest, I couldn’t help but burrow closer. My lashes fluttering to a close as he murmured my name. I swallowed the lump in my throat and let my hands fall as he placed me on the table.The sweet happiness that made me so giddy I ran from him was gone. And in its place a small hole. Pettiness, anger, and jealousy clawed at my chest. His shirt had ridden up less than an inch more and I would be on full display. My gaze trailed up the ridges and dips of his abdomen. Beneath the light, I noticed the light markings of scars on the back of his biceps and arms. Muscles turned to broad shoulders, but my gaze locked on my mark.Shane is mine.Always has been.Always
Alpha Shane Ours
Go to Hell ~ LetdownAdeaThe silence was deafening. It was so still, you could hear a pin drop. Just an arm’s length away, his slow breaths filled the silence as Shane hovered behind me. I refused to look at him just yet. My emotions waged war within me. Did I want to yell or cry? I needed a moment. Closing my eyes, I took several deep breaths, trying and failing to calm myself down.Breathe in.1…2…3…4…Hold.1…2…3…4…Exhale.1…2…3…4…The damn breathing thing thing wasn’t working. Back when Gabe and I first came here, he taught me this breathing technique to help with my panic attacks. Instead of pushing thoughts of him away, it did the opposite. Every time I inhaled, I got lungfuls of Shane, his presence surrounded me. Demolishing the wall of safety I tried so hard to build up. As if he heard the wall come tumbling down, he stepped closer. The heat came off of him in waves, cutting through the short distance and caressed me. It was so hard to be mad at him, but my mind and
Alpha Shane Disrespect
My skin heated, and it felt as if my blood were boiling. I don’t know which part I was more angry about. This woman being here in my space, the supposed plan to remove her from the premises, or the way Shane called her name. Was it a nickname? Maybe it was all the above that truly pissed me off. My gaze locked with Gabe’s and I gave him the ‘Am I the only one insane here?’ look, but he just shook his head reassuringly. So either I wasn’t, or the two of us were both equally crazy. Turning my focus back to Beka, I waited impatiently for what she’d say. My lip curled as she softened her eyes and pouted.“When you didn’t come back, I was worried. On top of that, you didn’t answer any of my texts.” She hunched her shoulders, making herself appear smaller. We’re taught this at a young age to show an aggressive male we were weak and meant no harm. My skin crawled as she leaned into him, invading his space. I bit back the whine in my throat as my insecure thoughts swirled through my mind.Is s

I am not okay ~ Jelly RollAdeaKorra caught her scent before I could, and she was seething. Alarm bells were going off. There was a female in our mate’s suite. I didn’t know when it happened, but we had claimed not only Shane, but this area as ours. Only those we allowed were permitted to be here, and this woman wasn’t supposed to be here. My wolf snarled and snapped her fierce jaws at the uninvited guest. Normally, I can keep her under control, but right now, it felt like we were one and the same.Her anger, her hate, her pain, her need to draw blood—all of it was mine.My eyes trailed up from her red Jimmy Choos, along her thin yet muscular legs, to the white skirt that left nothing to the imagination, past her breasts that were barely covered by an uncountable number of diamonds. Red-kissed lips with a perfect cupid’s bow jutted out in a pout that matched her heels, blue eyes that instantly zoned in on Shane, and too-straight princess blonde hair flowed down her back.Still, she wo
