I noticed that Kiera had been tense since we left the packhouse. She was wringing her hands and looking out the windows nervously.

“Kiera, where do you like to shop?”

She bit her lip and looked down at her feet, “I’m not really sure. It’s been a really long time since I’ve actually been shopping. Everything that I owned was picked out by someone else.”

Cami frowned, “Well, girl, today, you get to choose whatever you like. My treat.”

Kiera shook her head, staring at Cami through widened eyes, “I can’t do that.”

“I insist. Please. You are Parker’s mate and he is part of our little disfunctional family. That makes you part of the family too,” Cami reached across the space in the car, grasping Kiera's hand a squeezing.

I watched her eyes glass over, but she quickly blinked away any tears, “I, uhm, thank you.”

Cami smiled a wide, bright smile, “I’ve never personally met a fox before. Do you have a counterpart like us wolves do? Felicity told me how absolutely stunning you we

  • Choosing her heart   Everything could go wrong(Wyatt POV)

    Last night went surprisingly great. Kiera was quiet and reserved, but she seemed like she was getting more comfortable with us. After Parker and I spent the time outside together, we both have a new level of respect for the other. We laughed and enjoyed being carefree for the first time in months. Before he'd left, there was a level of animosity, that I absolutely deserved, but as we sit here now, it seems that's disappeared. “Are you sure that you three can handle these little beasts?” Cami raised a brow, glancing between me, kai, and Parker. Parker, Kai, and I were going to be spending the day with the pup’s while the girls go enjoy a leisurely day of shopping. We figured that it would be the perfect time to go over the finer details when it came down to the captives and what's next. “Do I look like the kind of man who would fail you?” I stabbed a finger at my chest, narrowing my eyes at Cami. “Yes,” Cami replied without another thought. She challenged me with equally na

  • Choosing her heart   A Sire (Wyatt POV)

    “I’ve decided to give Tobias and his mate another chance,” Parker stated plainly. I watched Kiera lean into his side, squeezing him gently. I have a feeling that she was the one who convinced him to forgive and forget.“I will have my warriors move them to a room in the packhouse,” Kai nodded before his eyes clouded, signaling he was receiving a link. I watched him closely, his eyebrows furrowing and then going wide. That can’t be a good sign. “The warriors have requested our presence at the border,” Kai's voice held an edge to it as he swallowed hard. Not much rattles him, but I could see it in his eyes that whatever was waiting at the border was not going to be good.Parker turned to Kiera, but she waved him off, “I will just head home. I'll see you there soon,” she smiled. He leaned down, placing one hand on her cheek, before pulling her in for a gentle kiss. It was the first time I’d seen him initiate any sort of intimacy. The three of us quickly headed out, shifting as s

  • Choosing her heart   Vampires

    We moved Helena into a bassinet next to our bed. Wyatt refused to allow her to sleep in a different room. Now that there was a direct threat to me, we didn’t trust that the vampire would do anything to get us where he wanted us. Including hurt our pup. Parker has been on edge trying to figure out the best move. Kiera has been telling him that she will just give herself up instead of putting anyone else in danger, which I can imagine is incredibly scary for him. He just found her and she’s suggesting that she give herself right back to the people who captured her in the first place. I snuggled into Wyatt. He was the big spoon tonight, his arm draping over me and holding on tightly to Helena’s bassinet. His love for us had no boundaries. I found it hard to sleep, my mind felt like a never-ending movie. Looping through all of the possible outcomes. “You’re an awfully beautiful thing,” an unfamiliar voice chuckled. I opened my eyes to find myself in a dimly lit room. In the

  • Choosing her heart   Cheating death

    Wyatt sat the tray on my side table and furrowed his brows, sniffing the air, and then leaning down to sniff me when a snarl marred his once happy features.“You reek of vampire,” he growled. “I just had one of my dreams. You’re not going to believe this, but vampires are able to sense us in other realms. I spoke with him.” As eerie as the experience was for me; It also happened to be incredible. I had no idea about my abilities growing up, but now, they are far beyond anything I could have ever imagined. Wyatt’s eyes went wide as he stared at me with shock. “I’m sorry. What?” he spat through gritted teeth. “His name is Atlas. He said he was nearly four hundred years old. He’s not part of a clan anymore...” I was rambling off all of the information that I could remember. “What did you see in the future?” he asked, cutting me off. My heart stopped momentarily as I remembered the other details. I closed my eyes, “He had me hostage.... I’m not sure how or what he used, but he

  • Choosing her heart   Gifts (Parker POV)

    The moment that Kiera and I were alone, I knew we needed to talk. It made me sick to think of everything that Elenore had done to her. Everything that she forced her to do. She didn’t even have to tell me why she knew where the vampire was; I could feel it. We weren’t fully mated and marked yet, but those kinds of emotions are strong. I’d kill Elenore all over again if I had the chance. Some people deserve so much more than a quick death. I closed the door to our bedroom, pacing back and forth in front of where Kiera was sitting on the bed. “I’m sorry,” she whispered softly.I stopped pacing, furrowing my eyebrows, “For what?” I stared at her in shock. She glanced up at me, her green eyes filled with emotion, “Everything,” she muttered. Her eyelids fluttered closed as a tear streaked down her face. I walked over, kneeling in front of where she was seated on the edge of the bed, “Look at me,” I whispered. She swallowed hard, opening her eyes. Even bloodshot from tears,

  • Choosing her heart   Turning myself in

    I hesitated a moment before heading to Kai’s office. Seeing another one of our people taken by this man infuriated me. In my heart, I knew he wouldn’t stop until he got what he wanted. Me. ‘We are strong enough, you know?’ Iris stated, and I agreed. We were. We could do this. I could tell from the moment that he’d spoken to me in my dream; he was the kind of man who didn’t take no for an answer. He also clearly didn't make baseless threats.The money was the reason he started on this mission, but showing dominance over werewolves was the reason he’d kept going. I was a bonus. I could see it in his eyes. When he smelled my scent, his eyes glowed red. Vampires signed a treaty with us long ago, and typically weren’t a problem. But over the last hundred years or so, there have been a few that have strayed from the path of peace. Atlas was most definitely one of those vampires. “What are you thinking about sweetheart?” Wyatt asked, tapping me on my shoulder. His voice st

  • Choosing her heart   Have to make it home

    Everyone's attention moved to Maleigha, “Pure luck,” she whispered through a frown. Great. That is just fantastic. “There are a few texts that I’ve read that explain the best approach to a beheading. Everything that I’ve read says that taking them by surprise is key and from the front, as that is where a majority of the major arteries are. If you make one false move from the back, they will know, and recover quicker than you can blink,” she explained with a shutter. “Surprise, from the front, they’re really fast. Easy enough.” The words left my lips, but I didn't feel confident. None of this sounded easy. The look of utter shock on everyone’s faces was not surprising. “Are you sure she’s not a robot or something?” Ry asked, glancing between me and everyone else. Wyatt leaned towards him, “My money is on ninja cat,” he whispered through pursed lips. “Are you two done making jokes?” Kai groaned, glaring at Wyatt. Wyatt rolled his eyes, “Never.” Kai shook his head slow

  • Choosing her heart   Blessed by the Goddess (Wyatt POV)

    I put my block up back in Kai’s office. I didn’t want Felicity to be flooded with the fear and anxiety that I was experiencing at the thought of her going with this vampire. I made a promise to myself that if anything goes wrong, he’s mine. I will tear him apart limb by limb. “It’s time,” Felicity whispered, trying to untangle herself from my arms, but I held her tighter. I needed more time. “I’m not ready yet.” She pulled herself up towards my face, nuzzling her nose against mine, “Don’t worry, Wyatt. I plan to come home in one piece.” I felt my breath hitch. I wanted to cry. I wanted to scream. I wanted to lock her up so she couldn’t do this, but I knew she would find a way. Felicity was just that kind of person. She wouldn’t allow anyone else to suffer when she had the solution. It was something that I’d always loved about her, but right now, it was breaking my heart. “Promise me,” I whispered. She nodded, kissing me with an intensity that I’d never experienced f

  • Choosing her heart   Chose my heart(THE END)

    The night was finally here and the room was full. People from all walks of life sat at small round tables together. “You look beautiful,” Wyatt whispered in my ear. I decided to wear an all-black sun dress and just enough eye makeup to accentuate my eyes. We opted to keep things fairly casual for the evening. That way, there was no pressure on our new members. Many came here with next to nothing, and didn't want a free handout. Wyatt’s father was sitting at a table chatting with a beautiful vampire. He had a broad smile and she was laughing at whatever it was he was saying. He held Dex in his arms and kept glancing down at him while speaking with the woman.“I think that your father might be smitten.”Wyatt followed my gaze, “Oh yeah, he’s in trouble. Or maybe she’s in trouble.”Kiera joined us, “There are far more people here than I thought,” she whispered, nervously wringing her hands. “You have nothing to worry about. You’re a natural.”She took one final deep breath before taki

  • Choosing her heart   Preparing

    “Do we have all of the food prepared for the evening?” Two of the kitchen staff stood before me with clipboards. We were going over everything needed for our welcoming party. We had an overwhelming response once we began sending out invitations for the Safe Haven. At first, it was like a shockwave to the supernatural community. Unheard of in a way. A lot of packs returned our letter, accusing us of trying to steal their members. Some packs asked to come in and see what it was exactly that we were working so diligently on. We had five Alpha’s meeting Kai in total confusion on why we would welcome those of different supernatural races into our pack. ‘Werewolves are supposed to run packs for werewolves!’ they’d say. But in the end, they weren’t why we were making the program anyways and we held no room for their outdated ways. Once we had a few wolves show up, it was like the domino effect. It quickly became apparent that we were not prepared for the task ahead of us. “I believe so

  • Choosing her heart   Excitement(Wyatt POV)

    I’ve been trembling with excitement since we arrived. Felicity was sitting on a small bed with a towel on her lap, fidgeting her fingers since the nurse brought us in here. They’d taken a small vile of her blood and we were patiently waiting for the ultrasound tech to come and start looking at our pup. “I hope they hurry up. I’m going to burst here in a moment.”Felicity giggled, leaning down and capturing my lips in a sloppy kiss. A soft knock at the door had her pulling away and in came a young nurse. “Are you two ready to see your fledgling?” she asked with a warm smile. I’ve been calling my pup a kin, or pup, but the correct term is fledgling. The more you know...Felicity leaned back on the table as the nurse squirted jelly on her exposed belly. I grasped Felicity’s hand, squeezing it tightly. My eyes never left the little screen as she placed the wand into the sticky substance. A wiggly bean appeared on the screen causing my eyes to instantly well with tears. That little t

  • Choosing her heart   Full circle

    I decided to walk back home slowly, thinking about everything that had happened. I don’t want to believe that Parker is still in love with me. The thought makes me feel dirtied, like I'm betraying Kiera. She deserves his whole heart just as I've given mine to Wyatt.‘Can I come to you?’ Wyatt’s voice floated in my head.‘Sure, I’m walking home from the lake.’Less than thirty seconds later, Wyatt appeared in front of me. I could feel his guilt as he stood there wringing his hands.Closing the distance between us, I wrapped my arms tightly around his body and angled my face to look up at him. “Are you okay?”His arms snaked around my back, pulling me flush to him. One hand rested on the back of my head and the other squeezed my midsection. His chin rested against my hair, “I feel awful for how I acted earlier. Kiera didn’t deserve that."“I’m sure she will forgive you.”His head fell onto my shoulder, “Did you talk with Parker?”“I did.”He pulled away from me, “That’s all I get?”I s

  • Choosing her heart   Ash(Parker POV)

    She nodded and he leaned forward, crashing our lips into hers. His hands went into her hair, gripping it tightly. He pulled her closer to us, snaking a hand behind her back. The sparks from their contact were electrifying. ‘You taste like heaven,’ he growled, ‘Better than heaven.’ I typically wouldn’t have given Ash full control but I felt like they needed this moment. She climbed onto his lap and from where I was in his mind, it was like watching a show. Almost like seeing my mate with myself but from the outside, which was an interesting twist. He gripped her sides, positioning her directly on his lap. She leaned forward, capturing his lips in a dominant kiss. He plunged our tongue deep in her mouth and she let out a muffled moan. ‘Will you let me explore you, Kiera? I want to show you just how much you mean to me.’ “Please,” she moaned out. He stood, her legs wrapped around our middle and he carried her to the room. ‘Don’t be too rough,’ I warned. ‘Go away,’

  • Choosing her heart   Cut the strings that hold me back(Parker POV)

    As we ran through the thick foliage, Felicity’s voice was on repeat in my mind. I needed to forgive myself. Let go of the need for control. How does one do that when it is the only thing that they know? ‘The Goddess made Kiera for us. She doesn’t make mistakes,’ Ash muttered. That was only one piece to my puzzle. How do I forgive myself for not being there when my parents needed me? When Felicity needed me? When..... I needed me? Ash followed Kiera’s scent back to our house and I silently thanked the goddess that she still came home after I had embarrassed her today. He shifted, giving me control. I quickly threw on a pair of shorts and rushed inside. Kiera was sitting on the couch with a packed suitcase. The sight broke my heart. “Are.... are you leaving?” Her gaze met mine and I saw her puffy, bloodshot eyes. She probably hasn’t quit crying since I left the pack house. The thought that I caused that was a suckerpunch to the gut.“I think that would be what’s bes

  • Choosing her heart   Choices

    I found Parker sitting by the same lake that I’d taken him to the first time we talked after he came home. The whole run over here, I tried to think of what I was going to say, but in all honesty, the shock hadn’t worn off. There was never a moment where I would have considered Parker still harboring such deep feelings for me. The air coming off of the lake was bitter, even for myself. I walked over, sitting down next to him on the embankment. We sat in silence for what felt like forever before Parker spoke up, “I come here sometimes to think. It’s peaceful,” he chuckled sadly, "Just like you'd said before. Who would of thought you were always right?"I smiled, looking over the dark expanse of water, “It’s my favorite place within the pack lands.” “Why did you come to find me?” he questioned, sparing me a sideways glance. “It sounds like we need to talk,” I whispered. Part of me still didn’t know how to approach this situation. I didn’t want to hurt Parker. That was never

  • Choosing her heart   Sick joke

    When I heard all of the crashing coming from down the hall, I never imagined we’d be walking in on this. Parker being held back by Kai. Wyatt was leaned against the wall spitting blood. Wyatt shook his head with a smirk, his eyebrows raised, “Are you really going to make me tell her?” “Fill me in here. What is going on?” Wyatt chuckled, looking directly at Parker, “He’s still in love with you and is pissed that you turned.” A snort escaped his throat as he spit blood again, swiping the drips that had slid down from his nose, "What a fucking joke."My gaze fell on Parker and he looked absolutely devastated. I thought that we had been through this. We talked by the lake. He had given me a small ounce of doubt, but I was under the impression that we had worked through it. “Is this some kind of joke?” Kiera whispered. Tears filled her bright green eyes as she stared at Parker waiting for him to contradict what Wyatt was saying. I could hear her heart rate increase. She was hol

    I slammed my fist into the opposite wall, “What’s my problem?" I seethed, "I don’t know, Wyatt. Ever since you walked into Felicity’s life, you have fucked things up.” He looked at me, a mix of anger, hurt, and confusion in his features, “What the fuck is that supposed to mean?” “You destroyed my relationship with Felicity. We were mates, that was supposed to be sacred, but you used your mate bond to destroy what we had. You play daddy to my daughter," I slammed my finger into my chest feeling the emotions inside tryng to explode, "You continuously put my family in danger. Time and time again. You’re not even a werewolf anymore for Goddess' sake and now... now you’ve managed to turn Felicity. You stole her identity. She was perfect. A beautiful she-wolf and now she’s a filthy bloodsucker.... just like you.” Kai’s eyes were wide when I finished my rant but Wyatt just stood there, smirking. “Are you still in love with Felicity?” was the only thing that came out of his mouth.
