When I get to the kitchen, I push the door open and find dishes all over the counter, bits of food on the floor, and cracked glasses in the sink. My mother, a beautiful gruff woman shook her head in front of the stove. It had been years since my dad passed and she’d gotten harder, rougher, meaner. She had to keep this pack running, protect not only her children, but the members that looked up to her, and earn the respect of packs led by men. She wasn’t the soft, caring woman I remembered and my eyes watered at the memory of who she used to be. Our relationship was obviously strained. Had been since my father’s passing. I’d been forced to grow up, and I turned to things a child shouldn’t have even known about.
“You’re an adult now, you should get up and clean on your own,” she hissed as she cut vegetables.
I walked toward the sink and started pick

After everyone was fed, the dishes washed, and the kitchen cleaned from top to bottom, I could finally withdraw to my room. I spent the rest of the day cleaning, scrubbing, and washing every surface in the packhouse. What would normally take a cleaning crew a few days, I got done in a day. I took no breaks, ate no meals, had no coffee as I did what was needed to please my Luna.The weekends were made for never-ending lists, but I made it my life’s mission to get every single thing done and marked off. That was the only way I could do anything outside of pack territory without my mother linking me or demanding I make my way back home. I would be able to go see Uriel without worrying about my phone going off or being interrupted by my mother’s voice in my head while I was in the middle of getting what I planned on getting tonight.After I attempted to look decent, did my hair, and threw on something I could easily slip out of

My mind was a mess of thoughts as I failed to focus on the show he was watching. I was confused. This wasn’t how this was supposed to go. I’m sure he asked me to come over to fuck. I was still new at this whole hooking up thing. Sure, I’ve done it a few times, but my experience and level of interaction with men was still limited. It had been years since I’d lain in bed with a man that wasn’t my partner, no, ex-partner. What I expected when he closed the door was for him to kiss me, rip off my clothes and bend me over the nearest surface. This cuddling thing we were doing was throwing me off. I never did this with Amos and I was struggling to figure out what I was supposed to do. My eyes darted to the door in the corner.Should I ask to go to the bathroom?Maybe I could call Ami and ask her what I should do.She’d probably laugh at me and tel

When we come down from the high, I sneak a peek at him. His hard body flexes against mine and my already warm cheeks flush even more. I roll off of him and Uriel gets up to discard the condom. Before he can come to bed or say anything, I get up and disappear into the bathroom. When I’m in there, I clean up and fix my hair. With the dress back in place, my heart rate quickens. I’m at a crossroads.Even though I tell myself it isn’t that serious, my mind is telling me I need to be honest with him. If I stay and cuddle, it’ll give him the wrong idea, but if I leave, he’ll understand the line I’ve drawn between us. I don’t think we’re at a place where I can hurt him, so I think it’s the best time to distance myself.My heart tells me Uriel is nice and that if I gave him a chance, we could have something great. But my mind and my wolf know Uriel isn’t what I need. Nor is he what I

I haven’t talked to Uriel in three days. I sobbed the whole drive home. The guards ignored me as I did my walk of shame as the sun came up. They hadn’t asked me any questions, and they didn’t report back to my mom. He didn’t write to me, and I didn’t reach out to him. I’d made up my mind not to see him again. I didn’t know he was considering me as a possible partner. That reason alone was enough for me to remove him from my list.My life was nothing close to a fairy tale, and the beast turned out to really be a monster. There was no Prince hiding behind the cruel acts Amos performed on me. I hadn’t been expecting a happily ever after, but I’d planned on spending the rest of my life with him. His absence left a gaping hole in my life, and it was hard trying to find my way again without him.I wouldn’t say I missed him. I missed the idea of him. The comfort having

I’m a sap the entire drive home. My eyes are swollen by the time I park and get out of the car. The guards stare at me. Of course my cousin, Lu, is on duty again tonight, but he doesn’t say anything about my pink nose or my puffy eyes as they let me in. Lu is my cousin on my mom’s side. I don’t even care what they’re thinking. I’ve been going out more often than I have in years. The packhouse is silent as I make my way through the sitting area. It’s a workday and everyone is asleep. I don’t turn on the lights as I make my way upstairs. Closing my door behind me, I’m ready to sink into bed when my phone rings. Who the hell is calling me at this hour? Lifting my phone, it’s Rem, my cousin.“Hey, Rem. What’s up?” I asked when I answered the phone.“Bitch. What're you doing?” he asked.“I just got home,” I

Just as Rem said, Alyssa was dressed in sweats, a hoodie, and an over-sized beanie. She hopped into the backseat, pulled out her phone and was busy tapping away as Rem pulled out onto the road. He threw some choice words back at her for not giving him the attention he deserved. I chuckled under my breath as I stared out of the window as darkness descended.It was irrational, but I felt better just knowing I wasn’t the only one who wasn’t dressed according to the theme. It was adolescent of me, but I’ve always felt awkward about being the odd one out. When we get to Hunter’s, I notice he doesn’t turn down the music and try not to say anything about this being a residential neighborhood with people actually sleeping. Other than the one house with all their lights on, cars parked on the road and on the grass, all surrounding houses are dark. The truck slows as he tries to fit in between two other trucks parked on the lawn.

Rem grabbed a red one and handed it to me. I took it and sniffed it while he grabbed two—a purple one and a pink one. When he turned to me we clinked glasses and threw them back. I’ve never had one and was fully expecting it to taste like shit. Watermelon exploded on my tongue before I swallowed it down.“My Goddess, that tastes delicious,” I groaned.“Thank you. I made them myself,” Hunter gushed. The girls by his side agreed with him and took pictures while Rem downed the pink one.“Grape and strawberry. Amazing,” Rem sighed.“Right?” I giggled as I grabbed one of the grape ones.“And dangerous,” Rem reminded.“Okay, Mom. I thought we were here to have fun?” I asked.“We are, but responsibly. Your mom will kill me if I bring yo

A couple of guys are watching me and Angel dance. They’re sitting on the leather couch closest to us and it’s hard to ignore them. They’re good looking guys and I’m enjoying their attention. We have their attention but they aren’t close enough to touch me without permission. Angel’s arm wraps around my waist, our bodies grinding together as we vibe. I pull out my phone and hold it above us because over-sized t-shirts with pockets are life. She closes her eyes tight and smiles wide and I stare at the camera as I record a Snarl. We continue dancing as I press share and slip the phone back into my pocket.Eventually we make our way through the crowd. Angel and Rem hug and kiss in greeting while I pick up another jello shot. Rem shakes his head and hands me a cup. He tells me to nurse it and take it slow. I take a gulp of the gin and tonic when the guys from the couch appear by our side. They don’t try to touch me and I’m instantly fine with them being close. Hunter tells them he’s watchi

Falling asleep with the woman I love in my arms brought me a peace I have never known. I haven’t slept that well… ever. Vera was running and I knew it had to do with her shitty ex. When she cried out her safe word, I almost saw red. The implications of what she’s been through was enough for me to know he was running on borrowed time. Luckily for him, I wasn’t in a rush to get his info. This was only the beginning. I just needed a name, picture… and an address. Okay, I just needed a name and an address and then I’d sort it for her. We’ve been talking for months, but seeing her in person? Fuck. I knew right away why I was so obsessed with her. Months of Snarling her and I had no idea she was mine. I should have known.Years of wondering about my mate, instincts demanded I find her, but I couldn’t. I didn’t think I deserved to look for her after I got Ana pregnant. She was a passing fling, but when she came to me holding her belly, one sniff and I knew Maria was mine. I did right by her a

The silence in the room was deafening. My forehead wrinkled, my lips parted, and I forgot how to breathe. I know I didn’t hear that right. Right? My eyebrows furrowed. Goddess, it felt like my heart had stopped. I swallowed as I looked into Dane’s eyes. I expected his face to light up and tell me he was joking, but what I found was unwavering truth. There wasn’t any shame there like I assumed. I’ve read books where men have lied about having children just so they could get a piece of ass. While I’m aware I can’t base real life situations off of what I’ve read, I’ve also known alpha-holes who are exactly like the villain.Was I doubting him with this new piece of information after he’d done absolutely nothing for me to feel this way?Yes. Yes, I was.“It wasn’t in your SnarlChat bio,” I rasped. Unconsciously, I tried to pull away, but his grip tightened.“I’m not on SnarlChat looking for a life partner,” he said slow and carefully.“Well, no. I guess not many are,” I scoffed. He held m

“Okay. Let’s start easy. How old are you?” I asked.“I’m 26. What about you?”“I’m 24,” I laughed. I wasn’t 16 anymore and internally I felt old.“What would you have done if you were older?” he asked.“Hey! I’m the one asking the questions around here,” I teased.“Okay, okay,” he chuckled. He pushed the bag of cheesy goodness, offering me damnation. I didn’t even hesitate as I grabbed a handful. He held the bag between us and that had me smiling. Apparently, the bar was still on the floor.“How long have you lived here?” Then I bit into the puffy chip and waited for his response.“I spent half of my life living somewhere else. I had to move here for personal reasons and enlisted,” he said.“Hm… do you have any siblings? Little sisters? Brothers?” I asked.“No. I’m an only child.”“Wow, really?” He nodded. “But you’re not a spoiled brat.”“I’ll take that as a compliment,” he laughed.“You should. I have nine siblings! How was it growing up? Quiet?” I was intrigued to know.“I had a lot

When I’d all but licked my dish clean, I looked up to find leaning back in his seat, watching me. There was a glint in his eyes that told me he had sinful, delicious thoughts. My throat tightened. It felt like he could see through me, no, into me. As if he were peering into my soul. I was in a towel, but Goddess, I hadn’t felt as naked as I did right then. A shiver ran up my spine. My cheeks heated, and I knew my face was red. Unable to take a second more, I jumped to my feet and grabbed my dish. Only for him to take it from me.“You’re not doing that,” he murmured as he shook his head.“I’m not doing what? Taking my mess back?” I laughed. The first time makes sense, but at this point I was feeling like a burden. He laced his fingers with mine, and I forget how to breathe when he pressed his lips to my knuckles. His eyes cut to mine.“No, you can’t,” he growled.I mean… it’s hard to argue with that.But I would.“Okay, okay. I’ll just… sit down like a princess,” I feigned with mock ser

Dane was right. It had been hours. The sun had already sunk beneath the horizon and the moon hung high in the sky. The stars danced and their sparkle kept catching my eye. But nothing held my attention as much as Dane’s chiseled, tattooed back. When we walked into the kitchen, he lifted me and placed me on the counter. He hadn’t given me a shirt or let me change before he dragged me downstairs. So the cool counter top against the back of my thighs caused goosebumps to break out across my skin. He stood right beside me with a bowl of meat and had already finished peeling and chopping potatoes into thin little cubes.“How do smash burgers and fries sound?” Dane asked.“Like a food orgasm,” I groaned.“I love it when you make that sound. I’ll give you whatever kind of orgasm you want, whenever. Just say the word,” he sighed. My cheeks flushed as a smile spread across my face. He smirked as he rolled the meat in the palm of his hand and squished it effortlessly. He placed one patty after a

Did he really just write his name using his cum?There is only one book I’ve read where the morally grey character did that. I remember it vividly because my jaw was on the floor and if the author had asked for my soul to bring him to life, I would have said yes without hesitation. Not only is Dane giving me big bad daddy Dom, but in a short period, he’s given me everything I need. But this? He’s doing the Goddess’ work by bringing a smut slut’s dreams to life.My vision blurred and my chin trembled. Dane lifted his gaze to mine. There was a possessiveness there, but also a gleam. The bastard. He was enjoying the blatant shock on my face. I should be irked, but I wasn’t. I was a whirlwind of I want him forever, spank me again, and fuck me now. How was a girl supposed to think straight when faced with Dane? His eyes warm as a smile spreads across my face even as a single tear escaped and rolled down my cheek. His story grays tracked the one tear to rebel against my will.“I know this is

Dane claimed I was his, as if that was that. There was no explanation, no elaboration. It just was. I wanted those two little words to be true. Goddess, I did. Even though he looked me in the eye when he said it, beneath the many layers over my heart, I didn’t believe it. I needed to stay in this bubble where he only wanted me. I needed to wrap myself up in his words. In the short time we knew each other, he hadn’t lied to me.Was it possible to fall head over heals with someone you’d only known a few days?It was so ludicrous; I wanted to laugh. And yet here I was, pretending I would be okay with this just being a fling. He hadn’t lied to me before, but like all men, they eventually did. This only bothered me now that I was with Dane. I hoped he would lie to me longer. He rinsed my hair, distracting me from my thoughts. I held onto him, afraid he’d disappear if I didn’t.He lifted me onto the edge of the tub, my skin a light contract to the obsidian beneath. The hard material was cool

Surprise. That’s what had my eyebrows diving into my hairline. The meaning behind Dane’s words were clear, but my mind wouldn’t process them in correlation with myself. Stripped bare in front of this man with my his hand on my neck, my pulse thrummed beneath his thumb.The things that would make me nervous on a daily basis, weren’t. Why? Because of his big dick? No. Dane waving his cock around didn’t make my trauma disappear. My body and brain have been at odds since he showed up at the party and dragged me to his car. I couldn’t help the giggle that bubbled up and fell from my lips. I felt like I was going to crack. I’d blame my hysteria on exhaustion.“I didn’t know you were a king, but I think you’re mistaken.”“About what exactly?” Dane asked as he cocked his head.“I am no queen,” I murmured in comedic disbelief.Steel eyes darkened to a stormy gray, and the hand wrapped around my throat squeezed. After the abuse I’d suffered at the hand of the man who was supposed to love me, I s

“You’re the only one. I did those things because it was you,” Dane rasped.“You expect me to believe that you’d do all of those things for someone you’d never met?” I asked.“I expect nothing but what you have to offer,” Dane said.I don’t know what it was, but it felt like too much. He was too much. I needed to get away, but Dane refused to release me as I shook my head. He hovered right in front of me, not above me. He treated me as an equal, he spoke to me as someone he valued, and he waited patiently for me to speak like what I said mattered. The walls were closing in and the clouds promised to help me dive into the dark abyss I was used to.His body served as barrier, unbending against he winds of depression. His eyes held me captive, demanding I believe him. He refused to let me look anywhere but at him. He wanted me to hear him, feel him, trust him. Of course, I heard him. I knew I was being ridiculous. I felt like an idiot for crying over women wanting him, when I just slept w
