Adan

After a while, I got dressed in jeans and a T-shirt, not wanting to shred anything expensive, just in case. I had time for a run before I met Fletcher. But then again, he could wait.

I walked out of my suite a moment later, locking the door behind me. I looked over, and two new guards stood outside Brenna’s door. They straightened when I approached. “See that your Queen is protected and that no one enters. If anything happens to her, I shall have your heads.”

“Aye!” they both said in unison, their eyes wide.

I headed down the hallway and the seven flights of stairs to the first floor, needing to work off some steam. The guards by the entrance stepped aside as I passed.

“Alpha,” they both nodded.

I returned their nod but pushed through the door, having no desire for chitchat. Not now.

I ran toward the forest and stopped at the hollow tree where I hid my clothes. Shifters always have hiding places in the forest for their clothes. But there are also maids that hand out Pack r

    Adan When I walked toward the Eastern Canyon Resort, Fletcher Reed’s men were standing on either side of the door. They nodded to me as I skipped up the stairs with my men following close behind. “Don Cole.” One of the men nodded as I passed. I returned the nod and headed toward the main dining room, sure that he would want to meet here instead of in a private area. There was less chance that I would kill him here. Even though we have had a mutual respect over the years, one can never be too careful. “Mason, you and the boys wait here.” “Yes, Boss.” I left them in the foyer and headed into the main dining room. One of the men followed me but stopped just outside in the foyer, slipping inconspicuously into the shadows. A pretty, blonde hostess approached, but I hardly noticed. “Don Cole?” She smiled, her eyes filled with interest. “Don Reed is expecting you. Right this way.” She walked ahead, and I saw Fletcher sitting at a table in the corner, his back to the wall, of course.

    Adan “Sorry. Can’t do that.” Fletcher took a sip of his bourbon. “Does that little hellcat have something to do with this?” I glared at him. “For the last time, she is a lady. Do not call her a hellcat.” He nodded, giving me a knowing smile. “So, she’s gotten to you, huh?” He waved a hand dismissively. “Why don’t you just fuck her and be done with it?” I slammed my hand down, jumping to my feet. Then I leaned across the table, keeping my voice low. “There’s a whole can of worms here that I’m sure you don’t want to open.” But Fletcher just stared at me, unmoved. Then he nodded toward my chair. “Sit down. Let’s talk this out like gentlemen.” I stared at him for a long moment, then sat and took a long pull of my bourbon. “Who brought her in?” He chuckled, swirling the bourbon around in his glass again, watching the liquid. “That I can’t tell you.” Then he took a sip and looked into my eyes. “All of my sources are confidential. I’m sure you understand.” I nodded. “And she was broug

    Adan “Where do you think you’re going?” I glared at Mason, following me past a Maserati as I headed toward the showroom. “You’re not going anywhere without protection.” Mason looked up at me. “Not if I can help it.” “Well, then, let’s go.” I hurried inside and darted around a corner, watching through the glass. Sure enough, two cars containing some of Fletcher’s men drove past and followed my limo. Thunder rumbled, and the clouds started darkening. “I knew he’d send his men to follow us.” I shook my head, looking around the showroom. “May I help you?” a salesman asked behind me. When I turned around, he instantly recognized me. “Oh! Don Cole! How are you today? What can I do for you?” “I need a car. Nice, but nothing flashy. Something I can take right now.” I tilted my head to the side, scanning the lot as I talked. “Do you have anything like that?” “Yes, sir.” He followed nervously as I walked back outside. “But I’m not sure about the detailing—” “Don’t worry about that,” I c

    Brenna Lightning crashed outside the sliding glass doors. The flash illuminated the whole living room. I jumped with a start out of a sound sleep and looked out. It was pouring outside. But when I looked over at the clock, my eyes opened wide, fully awake. It was two o’clock in the afternoon. I had slept all morning. It must have been the darkness of the storm that had kept me sleeping, or maybe I was just that tired. I pulled myself out of bed and headed toward the shower, knowing that Asana and her crew would arrive at any time. In fact, I was surprised they weren’t already here. I ran the bathwater, needing to shave and clean up. Also, my muscles were sore, even though wolves rarely grew tired or became sore. It was the first good sleep I’d had in days, but it seemed longer. Everything had changed so drastically over the last week, that it almost seemed like another life… and it was. After I stripped down, I sank into the hot water, relishing the moment. I closed my eyes and le

    Adan We didn’t have to wait long. After Fletcher handed him an envelope, the Alpha shoved it into his suit coat, and Fletcher and his men left. But the Alpha looked around, a crease between his eyes, sensing something. A moment later, he motioned for his men to get in, and they drove away. I started my car and followed behind, keeping a safe distance. The sun was hanging low, and I wanted to return to Brenna as soon as possible. Since last night, I couldn’t stop thinking about her. This was the first time I had been away from her, but I felt her call, her pulling me. I wasn’t sure why. I guess that was the way it was with Mates. But I had never felt this pull before, or anything close to it, for that matter. The Arctic Alpha took a right onto a winding road that let up into the mountains, but I pulled off and turned back around. “Boss, where’re you going? We have him!” Mason yelled, turning around to look out the rear window. “The road leads higher up into the mountains,” I repl

    Adan “Come in,” Brenna said from the other side, her voice a bit shaky. My heart fell as I quickly pulled the door open, nearly ripping it off its hinges, afraid something had happened to her on her first day here. But I froze when I saw her. She wore a beige dress that showed off all her curves in the right places, and her dark, brunette hair fell over her shoulders into gorgeous waves. Her makeup was subtle, and she wore matching beige high heels—very elegant. “You look gorgeous.” My feet moved of their own accord as I stepped into the room and wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her to me. “I don’t think I’ve ever seen a more beautiful woman in my life.” A slight blush colored her cheeks. “Thank you.” “Would you care to dine with me tonight?” “Of course.” She chuckled, obviously pleased by my reaction. “Asana and her people came to see me today. We made a day of it.” “Well, you look fabulous.” I took her newly manicured hand, her nails painted red, and kissed it. “Giv

    Brenna Adan led me to the elevator and pushed the button. “There’s a restaurant I know that has the best Italian cuisine in the city.” My head snapped up as the doors opened. “We’re going to the city?” He lifted one shoulder. “Sure. That’s where the best restaurants are.” The elevator door opened, and he held it for me, letting me go in first. When the doors closed, Adan said in a low voice, “It’s run by the Sky Family, just to let you know.” I nodded, understanding. In the Mafia, it was good form to frequent each other’s businesses. It showed good faith. After all, you’re less likely to go to war with a friend than an enemy. My father did the same thing. In fact, he had frequented Eastern Canyon Resort many times. Never would I have imagined being sold at an auction there. “You’re quiet all of a sudden.” Adan held the door while I exited the elevator. He offered me his arm and I took it, remembering my training to be a Queen. I held my head high, knowing what was expected of me.

    A Adan After we finished our meal, I paid the bill. “Come again!” Lucian Sky said behind us. “It was a pleasure to meet you both.” “The pleasure was ours. I assure you.” I placed my hand on Brenna’s back and we headed out. My men near the door came out of the shadows and silently followed behind. “Leave us,” I said to my men, looking directly into Brenna’s eyes. “Aye!” both men said in unison and went to stand beside the limo. “Do not ever challenge me in public again,” I growled, keeping my voice low. “You’ll learn I can give you extreme pleasure or extreme pain. It’s your choice.” She narrowed her eyes as she took a step closer. “And you will learn that I am your equal. Nothing more. Nothing less. I will not be ordered around by anyone, including you.” She started to walk away, but I grabbed her arm. “Never walk away from me,” I growled, keeping my voice low. She looked up, lifting her chin. “Watch me.” Then she headed toward the limo, leaving me behind. I clenched my j

    Brenna Pain coursed through my body as I tackled Laura. This had to end... now. I straddled Laura chest as I wrapped my hands around her throat and squeezed hard, preventing her from uttering another spell as a gurgling sound erupted from her throat. There were more gunshots, but I couldn’t look to see what was happening and who was shot. If I didn’t kill Laura now while I had the chance, we wouldn’t make it out of here alive. Her magic was much too powerful. I could face off against wolves any day of the week or even other witches, but without my magic, I didn’t stand a chance against Laura’s magic, let alone Fletcher’s. Another gunshot rang out and suddenly there was a pinch in my shoulder, but I kept squeezing her throat and pulled until I ripped her head off. Blood gushed from the cavity as her head rolled across the floor, her eyes fixed as shock colored her face. Filled with adrenaline, I stood, and Adan had blown Fletcher’s brains across the floor and the far wall, but bloo

    Adan “I’m sorry, Don Cole, but the resort is currently closed,” said one of Fletcher’s guards, blocking my way. But I didn’t stop as I marched toward the front glass doors of the Eastern Canyon Resort. “Don Cole, Don Fletcher isn’t available at this time.” The same man took a step back as he reached inside his suit coat. “Out of my way!” I yelled at the guard, throwing him off the top of the stairs as I drew my weapons, one in each hand, trained on the other two. One fired, hitting me in the shoulder, but I shot him square in the heart, sending him flying backward through the glass. Then I shot his partner, and he went over the top of the railing on the other side. “Adan, you’re going to attract the attention of the humans,” Nikoa said under his breath, following me in as we stepped over the guard dead lying in a pile of glass. “Ask me if I give a shit!” Inside, I shot two more men coming from the back room. “Don Cole!” Another guard quickly held up his hands. “I’ll tell Don Fl

    Adan When we reached the bottom of the stairs, I pulled Conner through the dark stone hallway, heading toward his father’s cell. Oddly enough, it was quiet. Darius wasn’t yelling and screaming, as usual. He must have grown hoarse. I laughed at the thought. When we approached the heavy wooden door of his cell, Zeke and Joe were standing at attention outside. “Guards, open the door.” “Aye!” they both yelled in unison. But when they opened it, no one was there. A huge smile spread across Conner’s face. The whole attack was a diversion. “Where is your father?” I demanded, shaking Conner with both hands. He shrugged. “How should I know? I’m just glad he got out safely.” “At the expense of half your Pack?” I backhanded him hard across the face. Conner scoffed, his eyes wide. “Hey, at least it saved my father. Without him, there is no Pack.” “Well, you’re right about that because you sure aren’t fit to be an Alpha.” I shoved him toward Nikoa. “Hold him and make sure he doesn’

    Brenna Watching from the windows at the battlefield below, Adan had just cut off of the heads of the warriors who wouldn’t yield… and Dominic was one of them. During the battle, it took everything I had not to grab my sword, rush out to the courtyard, and join the fight. But Adan had asked me to stay here. Against my better judgment, I decided to abide by my Mate’s wishes. Suddenly, gold and red light flashed in the room behind me, reflecting on the walls and windows. I dove for my sword, knowing it had to be a witch. But just as I reached it, the sword flew across the room of its own accord and into the far wall, out of reach. “So, you’re still in here?” My head snapped up and Laura was standing behind me, blocking the doorway as red and gold sparkles dissipated around her, fading away. She must have been on the battlefield below and had teleported here after Dominic was killed. “A part of me thought you’d be out there in the heat of the battle, fighting.” She chuckled, inclini

    Adan “I-I have the advantage!” Conner’s sword shook as he pointed his blade at me. “The Snow Warrior Pack is rightfully mine!” “Not anymore.” I slammed my sword at him, and he surprised me by countering with a jab. But I lunged toward him, slamming my sword against his, and it fell to the ground, gleaming red under the bright light of the Blood Moon. I grabbed him into a headlock from behind as he flailed his arms. “Do not move, or you will die.” He stopped moving. Obviously, he didn’t want to die. I turned toward the field, and Nikoa and his men were fighting alongside my men, and to my surprise, Hailey was among them. She had always been one of my best warriors. I was glad she had put our differences aside and had come to my aid with Nikoa, along with Ember. “Stop fighting now and lay down your weapons, or he dies!” I yelled over the din of clashing swords and growling wolves and Lycans, capturing everyone’s attention. One of the Snow Warriors saw what was happening and raised

    Adan Ring, ring, ring! I opened my eyes, and it was still dark outside. Ring, ring, ring! Then everything hit me at once and I was suddenly wide awake. I sat up and quickly slid my phone from the nightstand and answered it. “Talk to me.” “Alpha, there’s been a breach!” Wyatt yelled at the other end of the phone as soon as I answered. “We’re under attack! They’re coming over the wall!” I sat straight up in bed, trying to get my bearings. My eyes shot over to the clock, and it was three o’clock in the morning. “Wyatt, sound the alarm! I’m on my way.” I threw my phone on the nightstand. “What’s going on?” Breanna sat up, her eyes half-mast. “Stay here.” I jumped out of bed and slipped on a pair of jeans and a T-shirt. “Don’t leave this suite, no matter what you hear. The castle is under attack.” I gave her a quick kiss, my eyes filled with worry. “Make sure the sliding glass doors are locked as well as the door to your suite. Stay inside, and don’t go onto the terrace. I’ll be bac

    Adan The bathtub had been my idea. I had drawn it up for us, a place where we could be alone and relax—away from the worries and troubles of the earlier events. It was a place to connect, to explore, to let go and to just be together. I relaxed in the warm, inviting water as I stroked Brenna’s back, letting her enjoy the afterglow, letting my mind wander. Then Brenna clasped my length, stroking it from base to tip under the water, and then back down again as a thrill shoot down my spine. Then Brenna sank down onto me, guiding my cock inside her warm pussy as she wrapped her arms around me, pushing up and down, riding my length. My lips crushed down onto hers and she opened for me, deepening the kiss as she pushed down onto me over and again. Soon, we found a rhythm and I pulled back to look into her eyes, now half-mast with want and need, matching my own. Watching her come under my touch on the counter a moment ago made me want her more than ever before. Although I had been willing

    Brenna After we finished heating everything up, I lit the candles on the table. Then we sat down together, and I poured us glasses of wine. “Cheers.” I smiled as I raised my glass. Adan raised his in reply and took a sip. The warmth of the wine was comforting, and the pleasure of the moment was slowly washing away the tensions of the day. Adan smiled as he sat with me at the table, his eyes twinkling in the candlelight. I could spend the rest of eternity watching him. We ate dinner in companionable silence, savoring each bite. After dinner was over, we cleaned up before settling back at the table with another glass of wine. Then Adan took my hand and kissed it as he looked into my eyes. The tension of the day seemed to dissipate in that moment, leaving only stillness and calm in its wake. “What is it?” I asked, my voice low and quiet, breaking the silence. Adan shook his head. “I don’t know. I just feel... relief, I suppose. Like… no matter what happens after the Blood Moon is

    Brenna Adan’s cock brushed across my lower lips, causing my sex to throb with want and need. Then he pushed into me slowly as I dug my fingers into his back as he pushed into me all at once. I gasped against his lips as he began moving in and out, filling me with desire as pleasure went through my body. Then started moving in and out, slowly at first then faster until he was pounding me. Adan crushed his lips to mine as he rolled his hips into me, truly making love to me. We found a rhythm and I closed my eyes, but he wrapped his fingers around my throat, forcing me to look into his eyes. “I want to see you when you come.” I nodded as I stared into his eyes, half-mast with lust and love. I pushed against him, meeting him thrust for thrust, wanting him to take me deep. I pulled him to me as my breath quickened, wanting all he could give. Sensations filled me as he pounded into me, his lips groping mine as passion and desire overtook us both. Adan’s eyes met mine as I wrapped my legs
