Brenna

Brenna awoke to an unfamiliar warmth. As her eyes adjusted to the morning light streaming in through the window, she realized the source of the warmth was Adan. To her surprise, he had fallen asleep the night before and hadn’t left, still laying in the same position as the night before, arms folded around her, his legs twined with hers.

I didn’t want this moment to end. I lay awake, relishing every moment of being this close to him… before he woke and said something to ruin it. But I pushed the thought aside, determined to enjoy this for however long it lasted. I watched him as he slept, tracing every curve of his handsome face with my eyes, committing it to memory.

All too soon, he leaned over and kissed the top of my head. “Good morning, darling.”

“Good morning.” I looked up and smiled, wondering how he would react about sleeping next to me all night. I wondered if he had planned to slide out of bed once I was asleep and accidentally fell asleep next to me or if he had pla

    Brenna Just then, the doors opened, and I stepped out, glad for the cool air hitting my face in the hallway. Adan was the most exciting man I’d ever met in my life. But I had to stay strong and focus on what I wanted, or I may never get it. Adan caught up with me, and my guards followed. I didn’t turn to look at him. I needed to stay strong. But one look into his gorgeous blue eyes, and I would be tempted to cave and let him claim me as his Mate right then. But that time wasn’t now. “Are you all right?” he asked. I nodded as I peeked up at him. “I’m fine.” But I quickly looked away. I was ready to push open the door when Adan caught my hand, stopping me. “Brenna, I’m sorry if I overstepped—” “No. Not at all.” I smiled, letting out a deep breath. Then I pushed the doors open and walked in as he followed. The Main Dining Hall was set up like a buffet. Looking around, I realized this was the first time I’d had breakfast here. To the right was a buffet line, and servers kept everyt

    Brenna “Shut the hell up!” Hailey yelled. “Hailey!” Ember shouted, capturing her attention as she pulled on her arm. “You’re making a fool of yourself! Let’s go!” Just then, two guards walked up behind her, and one placed his hand on her shoulder. “Hailey.” She shrugged away. “Get off me! I’m going!” She pointed her finger at me. “But mark my words! This isn’t over!” “As I said before, yes, it is.” I doubled my fists at my sides, ready for her to bring it on. “Hailey, it’s over!” Adan growled, using the Alpha timbre in his voice that all wolves in his Pack had to obey. “Now, go!” Tears ran down her cheeks as she nodded. Ember slid her arm around her shoulder as she looked back at Adan. “You didn’t have to do that. I hope you’re happy with yourself.” “For one,” Adan growled, “it’s none of your business. And for another, she knew what she was getting into when she started seeing me. I’m sorry—” “Save it for someone who gives a damn.” She walked out with Hailey as the guards fol

    Adan When I glanced up and saw the look on Brenna’s face, I knew her seeing me with Hailey would take a lot of explaining. But in good conscience, I couldn’t let Hailey walk away like that. I owed her that much. I would deal with the fallout with Brenna later. “Hailey, please try to understand. I never wanted you to hurt you—” “Well, the time for that’s over.” She sniffed, wiping the tears from her eyes. “Obviously, you never loved me.” “I tried to tell you that when we first started seeing each other, but you still wanted to see me. You knew I was waiting for my Mate. I never lied to you.” It had sounded good at the time. But now, seeing her distraught face, I felt like a heel for having used her like that. But then again, she knew what she was getting into. “I know.” She placed her hand on my cheek as she looked into my eyes. “From here on out, I will work with you as one of your warriors, but nothing more.” I nodded as guilt raised its ugly head within my chest. “Agreed.” Sh

    Brenna If I left now, I wouldn’t be a part of strategizing for the attack, but I had no desire to stay in the same room with Adan right now, either. But he had a point. I can’t help what he did before I came along, and neither can he. But it doesn’t make it any easier. I crossed the room to the door and opened it. “Mason, you can come back in now.” He peeked his head around the corner, arching an eyebrow. “Do I need to raise a white flag?” I sighed, shaking my head. “No, the coast is clear... for now.” I glared at Adan as I headed back to Mason’s desk and looked over the diagram. “It’s a solid plan, but we should attack from this angle.” I pointed to a spot on the map. “Really? Why?” A crease formed between Mason’s eyes as he looked at the makeshift map over my shoulder. We went on to discuss strategy and battle plans, but neither Adan nor I mentioned Hailey. How were we supposed to get past this? I knew we would eventually, but it wasn’t going to happen overnight. By the time w

  • Blood Moon   Chapter 44: Shameless

    Brenna Magenta and I spent the next few hours planning the Luna Choosing Ceremony. I couldn’t believe that it was in two days. And to think that I could be a Luna then. “I’ll have Asana come tomorrow and fit you for your dress.” Magenta took a sip of her tea. I took a bite of a scone left over from lunch. They had brought so much food up from the kitchen that we saved our dessert scones for later. It tasted delicious. “Are you sure she can do this on such short notice? I’m sure there’s a dress in the ones they already brought—” Magenta laughed. “She’d be delighted, I’m sure.” Her smile faded as she tilted her head to the side. “Are you sure this is what you want? To become a Luna? You still have free will to choose.” I nodded, considering. “If it means I can stand beside Adan with as much power as him, then yes.” I took a deep breath. “I’m upset with him now, but it doesn’t mean that I’m going anywhere.” A broad smile spread across her lips. “I was hoping you’d say that.” She lo

    Brenna “I can’t believe that Magenta didn’t let me know before now!” Asana huffed the next day, holding a dress up to me. She shook her head at two more dresses Paige held. “Here! Try this one!” She guided me to my changing room, shoving the dress into my hands. “Let me know when you have it on! I want to see you in it?” Then she quickly snapped the door closed. “Don’t I have a say in this?” “Yes, of course you do!” She yelled from the other side of the door. “But I refuse to let the future Queen of the Moon Shadow Pack look frumpy.” “Frumpy?” I scoffed. “Thanks a lot!” “Well... you know what I mean!” I quickly stripped out of my clothes and slipped into the dress she handed me. It was nice, but it just wasn’t me. “Nope! Too frilly!” “Let me see.” Asana opened the door without any warning. My head snapped up from the full-length mirror. “Asana! What are you doing?” “Oh, God no!” She made an awful face, ignoring my reaction. “Take that thing off, and I’ll bring you something el

  • Blood Moon   Chapter 46: A Special Evening

    Adan While Brenna was getting ready, I made the last-minute preparations with Chef West for the Luna Presentation Ceremony and our dinner tonight. I wanted everything to be right. Even though I hadn’t felt nervous about anything in a very long time, butterflies beat their wings frantically against the walls of my stomach. “Everything is set,” Caesar replied. “For tonight, too?” I felt like a lovesick schoolboy and probably sounded like one, too. He nodded, suppressing a smile. “I’ll have everything ready for you in the small conference room. I promise.” He gave my arm a manly squeeze. “Just relax, Adan. Everything’s going to be all right.” “Don’t start.” “It’s just that I’ve never seen you this way before.” I glared at him, clenching my jaw. “Don’t you have other work to do?” “Okay, okay.” He held his hands up in surrender, giving me a knowing smile. “Just don’t worry so much. She’s your Mate, after all.” “Not yet.” I walked out before he could say anything else. I hurried up

    Adan “So, how did your fitting go today?” I spread dip on a cracker and took a bite. She was right. It was delicious. She laughed. “So, you heard us?” I lifted one shoulder, smiling. “I couldn’t help it. The walls are relatively thin.” She took a sip of her champagne. “Well, since Asana had me captive trying on dresses, we had a partial beauty day, too.” I looked down, and her fingernails were painted a soft pink with sparkles. “They look gorgeous.” I took her hand and kissed it. Brenna smiled. “Thank you. We knew there wouldn’t be enough time to do everything tomorrow.” Caesar discretely set our plates on the table, filled with Chicken Tagine with Apricots and Almonds, along with cheesy mashed potatoes. “Let me know when you’re ready for dessert.” I nodded. “Thank you.” He bowed slightly and then retreated back to the Chef’s Station to prepare. “So, what have you been up to today?” Brenna took a bite of the chicken and apricot. “This is so good.” A smile lit my lips. “I wa

    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

  • Blood Moon   Chapter 101: Shot

    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

  • Blood Moon   Chapter 100: Neverafter

    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’

  • Blood Moon   Chapter 99: Magic

    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
