I wake up feeling much better. The cool breeze blowing in from the open window cools my sweaty body and feels surprisingly good, considering that I’m freezing.

Confused, I look around the room, the only light coming from Kane’s side of the bed. There’s blood on the sheets, and I can smell the fading scent of at least six people. Frowning, I get up, testing legs that just two days ago wouldn’t carry my weight at all. They feel solid and surprisingly strong.

The door opens, and Kane’s scent fills the room. My heartbeat shoots up with joy when I see him. It feels like I haven’t seen him in weeks. He still looks sickly and pale, but not as bad as…when? I think I saw him earlier, but he looked bad. Like he was knocking on death’s door. Maybe I imagined it. Or dreamed it. These last few weeks I haven’t been able to distinguish between dreams and reality anymore. “Hey,” he says and gives me a sheepish grin. “I heard you get up.”

“Were you here earlier?” I ask. “In bed with me?”

“Yes. So w

    Kane has to help me in and out of the tub, which makes me feel helpless. Maybe if I could remember the last three weeks, could remember the pregnancy and my changing body, I wouldn't feel quit so inadequate. It all feels so surreal, almost like it’s happening to someone else.Nothing fits, so I find a pair of Kane’s boxers and one of his sweaters. I like the way his smell envelopes me, as if the soft shirt is hugging me with his scent. It’s comforting in a weird way, and I don’t want to take it off.He looks up and smiles at me when I walk into the living room. “Here,” he pats his knee.I don’t wait or argue with him. I waddle across the room and melt into his lap, sighing contently when he put his arms around me. I crave his closeness and protection, and for some unknown reason, I start rubbing against him, covering myself in his scent. I blush and stop. “Sorry,” I mumble.He wipes messy, wet hair from my face and pulls me in for a kiss. “It’s okay. It’s normal. You are, well, for la

    “Willow,” Kane whispers in my ear. “You have to wake up now, my love.”“Hm,” I moan into the pillow. “Do I have to?”“Yes, our mothers are here to do the thing.”My eyes fly open, and I frantically look around the room, but it’s just Kane and me. “Where are they?”“In the living room still. I wanted to wake you myself.”Groaning loudly, I grab my stomach and sit up, swinging my legs off the bed. I feel sick and weak again, my head throbbing to the beat of my heart. “Gods, I thought this is over. Why do I feel so bad?”“Your mother said this would happen, that’s why we have to do the ritual every day.”I look over my shoulder at Kane. He is pale and shaky, sweat beads on his brow and his breathing is ragged. I wonder just how much of his life force I drain from him every day. “You don’t look so hot yourself.”“No, and I feel way fucking worse than I look.”I’ll allow my mother to come in here and do her magic if only to spare Kane the agony. He’s been through a lot and doesn’t deserve

    Kane's POV I never thought something as simple as a walk could give me so much joy, but it does. Every morning after the ritual, Willow and I go downstairs where Tessa dutifully waits for us with a prepared basket. Having breakfast outside in the crisp, early morning, is becoming our own, private ritual, and we have already decided that we’ll continue doing it after the baby’s birth. After breakfast, I take Willow back to the apartment, then go down to the office to work. I am trying to get as much done as I can before she starts nesting. By that point, I won’t be able to leave her by herself anymore. “All the Alphas in your new kingdom have sworn fealty,” Jackson says. “What? I ask. “Sorry, I wasn’t paying attention.” Jackson shakes his head and laughs at me. “The last two weeks are the worst.” “Yeah,” I agree. “Did any Alphas abstain?” “No, my king. We’ll arrange a ceremony so they can swear their oaths in person after your son’s birth.” I nod in agreement. “What about Richar

    Kane's POV Kaylee and Ashley give me huge, conspiratorial grins when I walk up to the apartment. “What’s with you two?” I ask. “Nothing, my king, but we think we’ll have a little prince soon,” Kaylee says. “Or a princess, maybe?” Ashley offers. “It’s a prince for sure,” I say. “I take it the queen started nesting.” “And how. We heard a commotion and went to check on her…your closet is no longer a closet, my king.” Laughing and shaking my head, I step into the apartment. A low, warning growl emanates from the direction of the bedroom. No one but me can be near her now. It’s going to make the daily ritual a bit of a challenge. “It’s me, Willow,” I say and throw my briefcase on the couch. I follow a trail of shoes and clothes that she had thrown out of the closet and find her in the corner of the walk-in, tucked in under a shelf. She had gathered every blanket and pillow she could find, and made herself a cosy little nest. I crawl to her on my hands and knees and sit next to her on

    I wake in pain. It feels like I went ten rounds with an MMC fighter and then went for a day-long workout in the gym. What happened? And how much time did I lose this time around?I look around the room, trying to figure out where I am. Kane is sitting in a chair next to the bed, his long legs stretched out before him, arms crossed over his chest, head drooping forward. I can’t help but smile at him.Still looking around the clinical room, I bring my hand up to feel for the baby and touch nothing but my soft, empty belly. No. No no no no. This can’t be. I didn’t go through all that hell just to lose him. Gathering my courage, I look down and stare at my deflated stomach. I gasp and try to hold back the tears. “Kane. Kane, wake up.” I have to stop myself from screaming.Kane snorts, inhales sharply, and snaps his head up. “I’m here, it’s fine, everything’s okay.”“No, it’s not. Where’s my baby?” I am frantic, and all I can think about is my baby. “I have to find him. What did you do to

    The best thing about being a werewolf is the fact that I heal fast. A day after Adare’s birth, the incision in my stomach is healed, and the doctor can take out the stitches. I can move around easier, and my body doesn’t ache as much as it did in the hours after Adare’s birth. “That doesn’t mean you’re ready to run a marathon,” the doctor says sternly. “It will take a few weeks for you to heal properly, so take it easy.” I nod, barely listening to the doctor. I’m eager to get back up to the apartment so I can be alone with my pup and mate. Kane stands off to the side, cradling the baby in his arms while the doctor examines me. He only has eyes for his son and isn’t paying much attention to the doctor either. “I want you to come and see me next week,” the doctor goes on and lowers my gown. “No sex for at least three weeks.” I didn’t even think about sex, and judging by the surprise on my mate’s face, neither did Kane, but he smiles and winks at me. “Not every werewolf is a sex maniac,

    Kane’s POV:I can feel Willow’s apprehension. She’s not in the mood for my mother, or anyone else for that matter, and the right thing to do would be to kick my mother out and be done with it. “Mother,” I say. “Willow is tired. You know better than anyone else how difficult the pregnancy was. Come back some other time. You’ve met the pup, now give us some time to settle in.”“After everything I’ve done to get her through the pregnancy, she can give me ten minutes of her time.”Helpless, I look at Willow, who just shrugs and nods. “Fine. Say what you want to say, mother.”“He can’t stay up here with you. It’s…unseemly,” Erica starts.I narrow my eyes at my mother. “That’s an old custom, mother. No one cares anymore.”She huffs and stares daggers at me. “That’s our family’s tradition.”“I’m not letting a bunch of strange she-wolves raise my baby,” Willow says.My mother’s mouth pulls down in disgust. “I am not a stranger.”Willow’s eyes flit to me then back to my mother. “What do you me

    Kane's POV“Do you know what’s great about being a werewolf?” Willow asks four days after we came home with Adare.“Literally everything?”She snorts. “No, not everything. Werewolves are too emotional, and our hearts rule our heads all the time. No, the fast healing.”“Aren’t you used to that?” I ask. “Didn’t the witches instantly heal you when you were hurt or sick?”Willow shakes her head. “Depended on how long my father wanted me to suffer.”She says it matter of factly, like the thought doesn’t hurt, but I can feel it. I choose to ignore it because she’s trying to hide it from me. She jumps out of bed and stretches. I cringe inwardly. I want her to rest. After the difficult pregnancy and the C-section, all I want to do is wrap her up in cotton wool and stick her in a glass case to keep her safe.She leans over the cot and lifts Adare into her arms, walking back to the bed to nurse him. No one has been able to come near our apartment. Willow is easily the most protective she-wolf I

  • Alpha of Alphas - The Lycan's Impossible Mate   Thank you

    Dear readers, I would like to thank each and every one of you for taking the time to read Willow and Kane's story. This has been one of the longest books I've ever written, and when I started out I did not expect it to turn into this epic saga, but I regret nothing. Nothing I tell you :). I fell in love with Willow and Kane, and I am genuinely sad to say goodbye to these two, but unfortunately all stories must come to an end. Thank you for your support througout this wild ride. It means the world to me. I hope you enjoyed reading this book as much as I enjoyed writing it. Until we meet again. All my love, Celice

  • Alpha of Alphas - The Lycan's Impossible Mate   Epilogue

    Kane Madden, Lycan King of Felan, wakes up to an unearthly racket right outside his bedroom door. Slightly concerned, he glances at his heavily pregnant wife and smiles despite his annoyance at his oldest son’s shenanigans in the hallway. Willow Madden, his mate of fifteen years is heavily pregnant with their second set of twins, two boys this time, and Kane sincerely hopes this is the last time. Goddess knows he loves his children, all eight of them, and he’s sure he’ll love numbers nine and ten just as much, but it’s getting difficult to keep up with all the pups. They are exhausting. For a time, he was sure that they’d never have more children, but after one wild afternoon in the forest, Willow did get pregnant with twins, a boy and a girl, as their remarkable son predicted. She named the twins Josiah and Jocelyn, after the previous occupants of their home. Kane thought it was macabre, but Willow insisted, saying they had to honour their ancestors. That would be the same twins wh

    It’s a beautiful summer’s day, and the drive up to the cabin is pleasant enough. Kane and I have found a peaceful kind of comfort in each other’s silence, and we rarely need to fill the quiet with inane background chatter. We are content, just being together. I inhale the lovely fresh air, remembering the first time I came here. The night Suri was born, the sheer exhilaration of feeling my wolf come to life...and that was all thanks to Agatha. Dear, sweet Agatha who never found a final resting place because we went to war and in the chaos, we forgot all about her. Our funeral home has since been bombed off the planet, and we just take care of our dead our own way as we'd done during the war. There aren’t that many of us left anyway. The few surviving wolves live here now, and those that refuse to come to safety are dying off – Templars bearing a lingering grudge either murder them, or the wolves yield to their unrelenting urge to join a good war. Kane once told me that wolves had be

    Kane's POV I wasn’t sure what would happen in the months and years that followed after we signed the peace treaty, so we went with the tried and tested 'go with the flow' method. For a time, everything went back to normal. Drake and Patrick ran the business, and more and more my little brother took over my duties in the company. Proof, Willow liked to remind me, that Omegas are just as competent as any other wolf. The overseas wolves went home, and as soon as they were sure the threat had really passed, the European wolves followed suit. The only ones that stayed were the humans. I claimed the human town as part of my territory during the peace talks, and the residents now affectionately call it Wolftonia. Leif left, taking his strange sister with him. Only later did we learn that Silke’s time on earth was limited and that she had foreseen her own death long before she ever came here. Unbeknownst to all of us, including Willow, a völva’s dying energy projects outwards, and what we m

    Adare runs around the garden with Roland. The two boys growl and stalk each other like prey. My motherly instinct is to jump up and stop them before one of them gets seriously hurt, but Rosie quickly grabs me and pulls me back to my chair. “No Queen,” she says. “That’s how they learn. They won’t hurt each other.” “Are you sure?” “I’ve seen them play this game a hundred times. I’m sure.” Dammit. My throat burns and I have to fight against the tears. I’m so happy that my son is home, but I’ve missed so much. He is the size of an average three-year-old and when I talk to him, I sometimes forget that he’s not even two yet. I choose not the think about it. I choose to focus on the here and now. My family is whole and complete and that's what matters “Mama! Look!” Adare squeals and tackles Roland to the ground. “Good job, buddy,” Kane says behind me. I look over my shoulder at my mate. “You’re back early.” “Yes. Peace talks broke down.” “Why?” “Clement wants my humans.” “I thought

    Kane rolls over to my side and pulls me into his embrace. I don’t even bother to open my eyes. It’s been a wild few days. “Oh Goddess, no,” I complain. “Haven’t you had enough?” He laughs breezily in my ear. “Never…but for now, yes.” He flutters kisses over my jaw and neck. “How do you feel?” “Like I got run over by a penis-shaped bulldozer.” “Hey, you wanted it.” I finally manage to drag my eyelids apart. “I did.” I smile at my impressive mate. “The first two days were great.” “I know.” He rolls away and swings his legs off the bed. “The last day always feels more like a punishment than pleasure.” I turn over onto my side and stare at his broad back, the strong muscles flexing under his skin. “No regrets though, right?” He looks over his shoulder at me. “None.” He gets up and stretches, scratching his ass as he walks to the bathroom. A minute later, I hear him open the tap. We don’t have electricity yet, but I’m not so sure I miss it. Life is kind of peaceful without the cons

    Kane’s POV I sit on the couch in the dark living room, watching the glowing embers in the fireplace, trying to ignore the call of Willow’s heat and the fever that's trying to consume me. I'd go to her, but she's still asleep. t’s not time, she can’t feel it yet, but she will in another few hours. I should be sleeping, prepare myself properly this time, but I can’t switch my milling thoughts tumbling through my head off long enough so I can go to sleep. I’ve already sent orders out to bring the power stations back online and ordered our army to stand its ground. There’s nothing else to do now but wait for Clement to come back so we can finish up the peace agreement. In the absence of entertainment or imminent danger, the only thing I have to keep myself occupied is my own thoughts, and all I can think about is the possibility that Willow will get pregnant. Here, in the quiet of the night, all by myself, I have to admit the truth. I never want her to get pregnant again – not becaus

    Kane’s POV For the next few hours, we talk about the meeting with Clement, the future, and a whole lot of nothing. There’s something comforting in it, just friends having a chat about life, love, and everything in between. I glance at my watch, surprised to see that it was well past midday. “That’s it,” I say and get up, stretching my too-tight muscles. “We’re taking the week off. I don't know about you, but I've had enough of war to last me a lifetime.” “Shall I collect Adare?” Zael asks on our way out. “Not yet. I don’t…Willow thinks he’ll be safe here, but I want to make sure.” “If what she said about The Goddess is true, she’s probably right. She hasn’t been wrong so far, has she?” I scrunch up my face and rub my forehead. “I don’t know. I can’t think straight anymore.” Zael nods. “I know the feeling.” “Did you get any retaliation over the Raymond thing?” “Of course I did.” “And?” “And nothing. I handled it...it won't come back to you.” “Do you think this war is over?”

    Kane's POVIt had been weeks since we slept comfortably, and even though we both sort of hinted at passing the night making love, neither of us could actually gather the energy to do more than snuggle down in each other’s arms.For the first time in weeks, perhaps months, I wake with a smile on my face, completely relaxed and almost happy. The only thing I need to complete my joy is my son, and he'll be here soon enough.I stretch languidly, and slip out from under Willow and go to the bathroom to get ready for my meeting with Clement. I hope against all hope that Willow misunderstood The Goddess and that there would be no human war. I hope, and I pray, that Clement would listen to my advice and stop it before it even starts.The castle is freezing, and I’m shivering so much that I cut myself several times while I shave. Rattling like an excited dog, I run back to the bedroom, pull an extra blanket over Willow, then rush to the closet so I can dress in one of my suits and my long, thi
