His anger receded when he saw
her. Flushed cheeks and disheveled hair. He questioned why she was in such astate, worried that Liam hurt her, but knew he had no right. He caused her painover the years, and his deeds last night were unforgivable.Her honey-glazed orbs stared at him in fear and… something
else. Something she kept hidden since that day, a promise, but he could neverbring himself to ask her.He saw his reflection in her eyes – a monster. There was a
time when he wanted to see in those eyes the Alpha, he secretly promised he’dbe, for her. He missed how she looked at him with adoration and love. Now allhe could see was the kind of person he swore he’d never be, and he blamed it onher. She did this to him.He’d be lying if he said
On a rocky cliff that oversaw a wide expanse of the woods, three teenagers kept their eyes on the horizon, yellows and oranges streaking the skies as the golden celestial slowly retreated from view.It was the last day they spend together as ‘normal’ humans. All of them would be going through the coming-of-age ceremony that year to awaken their wolves. Their training would intensify as they enter the second phase, to prepare them for the responsibilities they would bear in due time.Each born into the top positions of the pack, they gladly accepted their future and from a young age understood the importance of their roles.They were raised and trained differently from an o
~Liam~She slapped me! For what?Is she rejecting me?No, she doesn’t know it yet. Fuck!“Get off me,” she said.I didn’t like the tone of her voice.No one disrespects me.“Now!” she screamed as she raised her hand to land another slap, but I caught it by the wrist.Not even my own mate.I turned my head to look down on her and fuck it if I scared her. She was already afraid of me, to begin with. But her eyes held me frozen in place. They burned with rage but behind it was pain. It wasn’t caused by me but by someone else. Luca flashed his canines in my mi
“I miss him, Anna,” he sobbed,pulling her closer to him. It wasn’t her fault. Even he wouldn’t have been ableto stand up against a large number of rogues then.He should’ve protected her, claimed her as his. Instead,he tainted her honor and treated her as an outcast.“I’m sorry. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean for it to happen,”she sobbed.He didn’t care when she didn’t shift at the ceremony. Hisfather, his mate, his best friend, his pack – he let everyone down. A disgrace,he didn’t deserve to be Alpha.With a sigh, Alpha Flynn pulled away and wiped his eyeswith the back of his hand. He sniffled as he recovered his composure. Lookingdown, her body trembled in anticipation of his next move.
His mate… and his prey. His mate…had betrayed him. And she will pay after he was done with his prey.Anna couldn’t see him, her hands still tied and her Alphablocking her view, but she could feel his burning gaze on her.Before Alpha Flynn could say a word, Alpha Liam ripped himoff Anna and threw him across the room like he was a ragdoll. The impact wastoo strong for the weak structure that the walls gave in. Then his back madecontact with a nearby tree, leaving him wheezing for air.The building was coming down on their heads and Annaclosed her eyes, unable to scream. She waited for the roof to bury her, but ahand instead brushed her cheek and she found herself in the arms of her pyschosavior.Witho
~Flynn~I watched Liam take her fartherfrom me, my vision blurring as I tried to focus on what the woman in front of mewas saying. I could barely stand. That bastard almost ripped my throat out, andI wasn’t healing fast enough to recover. Damn it!Warmth crept down my neck, but all I could think about wasgoing after her and taking her away from him. She still loved me, despite allthat I’d done, and I couldn’t be more relieved.There were a lot of things to do, asking for her forgivenesstakes priority.Will she forgive me that easily?I saw her raise her head to look at me, my woman in thearms of another man; I let out a
~Anna~In a way, I was glad I wasn’t facing him because my face felt hot. I didn’t need a mirror to know that I looked like a tomato right now. This was embarrassing, especially when he told me that he could smell me, down there.I actually did it with Flynn! Well, not exactly because we had our clothes on but…I gulped. Did I want it to happen with our clothes off? An image of Flynn’s topless figure flashed in my mind. He was always in shape, conscious of his looks ever since we were in training.He rejected me, but… I guess he still loved me. But… if he did, why would he do those things! I almost died that night!Did Farrell take control? No, I would’ve known. It was definitely him. He did it on his own volition.I didn’t know what came over me – why I let him do it to me. I’d be lying if I said it wasn’t good and that… I didn’t like it.No, no, no! Anna, he almost killed you
~Liam~Her scent was driving me crazy and she just kept on shoving that naughty little ass of hers on my face like she was taunting me. This mate of mine kept teasing me, unknowingly, and my head was starting to hurt.The mating ceremony was over. I would’ve wanted to be there with her and show her off to the other males. My mate, my Luna, my fated woman. I would’ve claimed her proudly as mine so no one else would even dare lay their lustful eyes on her. She was mine for life and I was hers, at least a part of me.The moonless night wasn’t of a hindrance to me. She probably didn’t know that I was channeling Luca’s energy to help me see in the dark. But doing so also heightened my sense of smell and I couldn’t help myself from taking in her scen
~Anna~Well-built and lean, he stood bythe doorway, his frame blocking the only exit. I recognized the voice, havingheard it at times on days I was allowed to take a stroll near the traininggrounds. Looking up, I saw my best friend, who I had barely seen for years. Istill considered him my best friend, though I didn’t know if it was the samewith him. He called me “Bella”, my second name, and he was the only one whocalled me by that name; everyone else preferred to call me “Anna”.His beach blonde hair was a mess, which meant he had justreturned from a run, but there was a weird scent coming from him. His thin lipswere set in a straight line, his blue orbs set on me, and though he wore aserious expression, it was the first t

A shrill scream cut through the otherwise silent mansion of the Rose family. Liam awoke, startled, and in a speed that the human eye couldn’t follow, he opened Alia’s bedroom door with a bang.The light switched on, illuminating the little girl shaking in her bed. Tears brimmed her eyes, threatening to spill. She breathed harshly, raising her arms to ask for her Daddy’s comfort.Liam’s gaze shifted momentarily to the windows, which were, much to his relief closed, the curtains exactly the way they were when he left her.The boys’ bedroom door opened as Liam stalked to Alia. He raised the girl by her waist and let her down on his lap.“Daddy,” she cried, burying her face in his chest.Liam stroked her hair and gently leaned forward and back. “It’s only a nightmare, baby. Daddy’s here.”“You can put those down,” he said to the boys. Aylan carefully put down the bag of wolfsbane powder.“No bad guys?” asked Amiry.“N
“I’m thinking of adopting,” said Gale as he ran a hand though his hair. “I haven’t talked to Andrix about it yet, but he won’t be averse at the idea, would he?”Rigel calmly drank his glass of bourbon, which was from Liam’s not-so-secret personal collection.“A human kid?” he asked.“No, you fucking dumbass. Do you want the kid to die?” Gale said, scowling.Liam muttered under his breath, something about not having a moment of quiet time for himself as he scanned and signed through a stack of documents. Gray streaks dyed his hair, and lines had begun to show on his face. He had a stubble from having forgotten to shave that morning. It was because of the children jumping up on him before daybreak.Sighing, he signed the last o
~Liam~“AAAHHH!!!” Anna’s screams filled the entire room as our babies pushed their way out. In a few more hours or minutes, we were going to be parents!“AAAHHH!!! Ughm!”I clenched my jaw as she crushed my hands in a death grip. She was sweating profusely, her breathing heavy. Lexy and Helia and nurses were constantly checking on her.I didn’t know what else to do. If I could share the pain with her, I would. The only plan my mind came up with was to talk to her like it would help.“You’re doing great, babe!” I encouraged.I can’t feel my hands.“Breathe… breathe… you’re alright… you’re doing great!”
~Liam~I’d been squeezing a stress ball since morning – Gale’s recommendation. As ridiculous as it looked, it was helping.“Did you hear back from Helia?” I asked as soon as Lexy entered my office.“She’ll be here by tomorrow morning,” she replied, dropping on the sofa like a bag of potatoes. “Are you sure you want to me to handle this, bro? We can ask the humans – they’ve more experience and frankly, I’ve only ever delivered one baby.”We owned hospitals and leaving her in the hands of an expert would maybe lower the risks, but she was a special case.Her blood, her race – if something hocus pocus happened while a human was around, the safest measure would be to kill that human. It would upset her. Then again, she didn’t have to know. Still…“I’m leaving you in charge of preparations,” I said firmly. “If something… starts happening, do whatever you have to save her.”“I want her to make it
~Liam~“Babe, I’m sorry. You told me I can have it.”I ate the last brownie on the fridge and forgot to bake more since I spent the day in the office. For the mean time, I was handling two packs because I didn’t want her to stress herself over pack matters. She was on board with the idea. It gave her more time to read books and nap – she’d been napping at almost after every hour.When she was in the mood for boring paperwork, she’d join me. I enjoyed her company – things finish faster, and her mood would lighten up at the Black Mist Pack’s reports which were usually on their progress on the numerous programs implemented to help stabilize their position.I didn’t get yelled at or pushed away for being
~Rigel~“The little fucker’s asleep.”I grinned in triumph. My carbon copy had been crying for hours, keeping everyone wide awake at twenty minutes past twelve on a Friday night! Sabri was lying in bed, her eyes closed, tired from the sleepless nights and early mornings.I wouldn’t let Mom take care of my kid while I slept. She needed to rest, too, after a long day of feeding the pack.I could train for hours, spar with every warrior willing to get bruises, but holding a kid and dancing him around for hours… every muscle in my arms screamed at me to let them down on my sides. Funny thing was that he didn’t even weigh much.A settled man. None of the guys would’ve expected that I’d be the first one. My bachelor days were over, and yet despite the added responsibilities, I was… happier?I had a beautiful queen in bed, and a little prince in my arms. What more could I ask for?Mom was ov
~Anna~“You look so beautiful, Anna,” said Lexy, dabbing at her eyes.“Thank you, Lexy… for everything,” I said and gave her a tight hug.“Won’t you at least tell me what happens after? I heard Aunty J stressing over the menu for tonight.”I didn’t know how the ceremony would proceed, and they’d been keeping their mouths sealed.“Well… we, your loyal subjects, enjoy a night of feasting and drinking and some alone time with our mates…”I sniggered, surprised that she could be so bold when it came to Carson.“… while you and bro copulate somewhere else.”Oh, Goddess…
