Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 21
KALEN Zion brought me to Atlanta with no questions asked. He knew that this was ‘see you later’ for now. Hopefully, I will not be gone for too long. It was hard to pull away from his hug, but it was necessary. I gave my cousin two tasks before he left. First, I gave him a message to pass onto Matteo. I was extremely proud of my Beta. He was the best Beta that I could have ever had the privilege of being paired with. His loyalty was also to me. Dad was the Alpha of our pack, but I was Matteo’s Alpha. It was one such reason that I knew I could entrust that flash drive to him and not have to worry about him showing anyone else. Just in case the worst happened, I needed someone to know the truth about Calvin and the threat it posed to all of us. The second task that I gave Zion was that he would discretely watch over Maddox for me. I did mention that Neo’s mind was protected even from Maddox, so Koa could talk to Neo if need be. I suggested that Koa let Neo know that the plan that Sele
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 22
MADDOXThere was someone that had been absent for days. It was really fucking pathetic that my eyes searched for her in any room that I entered. She had quickly become a splatter of intrigue on the backdrop of my day.What was it about her that pulled me in each and every time? Nobody else could catch my attention like she could. The crazy thing was that she did not even have to try because it just naturally happened.From the moment that my eyes connected with hers, I was a fucking goner. But she could not be mine. I would never be able to keep her. Just thinking that was enough to feel like a dagger was dug into my chest. Nah. She deserved someone better than me. My old man had a fondness of destroying his toys. Perhaps, if she had come into my life before he made me into this, we could have worked it out.Pain, adrenaline, and sex. Once upon a time, those three things were the only ones that would reach through the haze of my life and pull me out of it for fresh air. It helped me ge
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 23
KALEN My body was numb by the time he released me from my restraints and threw me back into my cell. There was no telling how long I had been here. My time was spaced out between multiple torture sessions, quiet time alone that I preferred as my body attempted to heal from his abuse, and moments of confusion. The hallucinogenic was rougher than I had anticipated. I would hate to imagine what it would have been like if I had not been blessed by the Goddess Hecate. It made me question if my memories were actual memories or not. I spoke my truth over and over again so that I did not lose who I was. My name was Kalen Zyla Anderson. I was Dark Moon’s Alpha heir and would be the first female Alpha of our pack. My Beta and Gamma would be Matteo and Ava respectively. My wolf’s name was Nika, and we were Vessels, chosen by Selene herself. It was my Vessel destiny to vanquish a specific enemy, but it needed to be identified first. That was how I ended up in this cell. The only way for me
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 24
MATTEOIt has been eight days since Kalen left. Eight days since anyone has heard something. Eight days since we knew that she was okay.She had told us that we needed to make it seem like we believed she was missing. Now, I understood why since I was safeguarding her secrets when it came to her plan.The first thing that the flash drive showed me was a disclaimer. She very clearly stated that there was only one person at fault.It shocked the shit out of me that she already knew who her mate was. Maddox fucking Stark. I was not certain how I felt about that. He seemed like a playboy who had a rotation of females. Kalen would never put up with that if they got together. Apparently, she was already feeling it when he would sleep with someone. Not all Vessel abilities were helpful.She detailed the various visions that she had, leading up to her plan being put into action. Painful torture and psychological torture with hallucinogenic injections. It broke my heart to read how it affected
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 25
KALENNo matter how many times I had the visions of what would happen after the bond snapped in place, I had still hoped that something would change it. I had hoped that he would choose me in the end.‘I’m so sorry. I tried to stop him,’ Neo had cried out to Nika.She and I had an open connection while we were here, so I heard anything that was said to her. I heard how mournful he sounded. My heart broke for Neo because he was innocent in all of this, but he was hurting just like we were. He absorbed as much of her pain as he could.The agony was even more intense than it had ever been all thanks to our fucking bond snapping into place on his end of things. Lucky me. I was allowed to be as cynical as I wanted to be right about now.Selene spoke to me about Angel. Apparently the Goddess Sol, Goddess of the Sun, blessed Angel with a connective bridge to me where she can send me strength and healing. It was a little confusing, but I appreciated it, nonetheless.-My eyes snapped open when
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 26
MADDOXI groaned and threw my arm over my face. My head was fucking killing me, but I had no idea why. Goddess, it felt like a fucking jackhammer was breaking my brain apart. I could not remember the last time that I had felt like this.‘He finally awakens,’ Neo said, voice dripping with sarcasm.‘What in the actual fuck happened?’He snorted and shook his head mockingly. I knew that he was pissed as fuck with me over what happened with Lexa. I never should have let her get to me. She knew what I was struggling with, and I fell right into her fucking trap.‘Oh. You remember that part. We learned that our mates were the goddesses that we’ve been craving since we first laid eyes on them. Then you’re balls deep in a fucking skank not even an hour later. It’s nice to see that they mean nothing to you at all.’ He snarled at me.I knew that he would have killed me if it was possible. It was not like I would stop him. Not after what I did.I had never been more disappointed in myself than I w
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 27
KALENKilling the bitch ended up altering things. There was only one mate-bond betrayal instead of multiple. I did not fully blame him because she had used her gift on him, knowing that her words would cause him to spiral down into an endless vat of guilt over what his father was doing to me. He was still responsible for making the choice to sleep with her, but there were other factors that contributed to it.Neo had explained what happened. He also told us how guilty Maddox felt about what he had done and how much he wished that he had made a different choice. As much as I would love to say that I could trust him, only time would tell. Not to mention that it would take time for me to move past it. As much as I wanted to leave the past in the past, the pain was etched into me for now.Hearing that he believed what I said about his uncle meant a lot to me. It was another thing that had changed vision wise. Honestly, I believed what altered everything so much was the kiss that we had sha
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 28
MADDOXThere was nothing but a wave of darkness that seemed to stretch on for eternity, which I floated upon. It was like something was holding me in it. That was not a feeling that I liked. If there was something that I absolutely hated, it was to feel trapped.Then ever so slowly, my body came alive in parts instead of all at once. Pain prickled over each section until I could feel everything.My eyes fluttered open and saw that I was in a hospital room. When was the last time that I actually saw a doctor? Why was I here now?Everything flooded back in at once. Beauty was being held by my father. We were escaping, but he detonated a bomb to kill us. My body shot straight up. I groaned at the pain and stiffness. How in the fuck did I survive the explosion? I looked at my body and did not see any serious damage or anything.“He awakens.”I looked towards the corner of the room. A guy I had seen around Beauty before was sitting in a chair. So, her people got to us then. Did we make it t

Destined Alpha of Change Author's Note
To all of my amazing readers,First and foremost, I want to thank you for all of your amazing support with this book and all of the others that came before it.“Destined Alpha of Change” has actually been one of my favorite books to write because of both Kalen and Maddox. She is such a strong warrior that can stand against any foe no matter what it will cost her. However, there is also such a vulnerability that she hides underneath her armor. It is something that she does not allow herself to acknowledge until her armor is ripped right off of her. She had every right to walk away from Maddox, but she knew how wrong that was. Her vulnerability saw his, and it called out for her to protect him even if he did not know that he needed it or wanted it.Maddox began as a character that you would like to deck, but there was so much that he hid away from the world. Being raised by someone like Calvin would definitely leave both metaphorical and physical scars. Kalen realized that she needed him
Destined Alpha of Change Sneak Peek of Tangled Secrets - Taming Mr. Vittori
VIOLETI stood at the cliff’s edge and watched as the sun peeked over the horizon, painting the sky a plethora of colors. It normally signified the beginning of a new day, but today it signified a possible beginning of the end.Life had not been easy. There was always a fight occurring. It was Mom fighting for us in the beginning. Then it was me fighting for my sister once Mom was gone. Now, it was me fighting for them both.It was crazy to think about how much my life had changed since that night – the night when I learned the truth.I once heard someone say, ‘people can’t change the truth, but the truth can change people.’ That quote stuck with me because it was simplistic yet had an unmistakable depth to it as well. The truth really did change me. Not only did I find out that a mere human was precisely what I was not, but I also found out that Mom didn’t actually die two years ago. Nope. She was betrayed by her husband and given over to a group of sadistic assholes who hunted supern
Destined Alpha of Change Sneak Peek of Destined Bonds - The Hybrid Prince and His Little Witch
ZIONGrowing up, I was surrounded by love, warmth, affection, and strong bonds between those in my life.The bond with my father taught me about the man that I wanted to be – the one who fought for what was right no matter what that entailed. It also taught me about the mate that I wanted to be – the one who fought for my other half and was whatever she needed me to be in her life. She would be my Queen, both metaphorically and literally.The bond with both of my parents taught me all about the ruler that I wanted to be once I took my place as the next King to sit on the Precoza throne. I was incredibly proud of my heritage, both on the Precoza side as well as the Anderson side. I was proud to be a hybrid because it was the perfect blending of my parents and our family.The first time that I ever had a vision of my future mate was at the ripe young age of nine. It was the very first look that I got of her. I had no idea who she was or where to find her, but I knew that our paths would
Destined Alpha of Change Bonus Chapter - Flames of the Muse Tattoo Expo
KALENIt had been nearly impossible to keep this surprise away from my mate, but it was worth every bit of the sneaky ninja moves that I had to employ.Nadine and Delilah were tasked with keeping their father distracted while I drove us to our venue.He had tried his hardest in convincing me to share the surprise, but I was somehow able to keep my wits about me. I was a strong Alpha. I was embarrassed to admit that I almost gave in after eight mind-blowing orgasms in a row. I had been a quivering mess by that point. Thank fuck that I had retained a single cell of restraint.Nadine and Delilah were the only ones with us today. They were ten and seven respectively. Roman was five, and Harlow was three months old now. Those two were hanging out with Grammy and Pops. Mom and Dad were their first choices whenever they got to choose who to spend time with. My parents were very fucking smug about that too.I had been asked if we were done having pups. The answer was no. My mate and I wanted t
Destined Alpha of Change Bonus Chapter - The Underworld Welcomes Calvin
MADDOXIt was finally here – a day that I had been looking forward to for the past twenty-four years ever since Hades told Beauty what was going to happen. Today was the day that Beauty and I would be visiting Calvin in the Underworld.Some might assume that it was fucked up for someone to be excited to see their biological parent in an eternal prison that was reserved for the worst offenders within the supernatural world. I did not give a fuck about what those people thought because he fucking deserved eternal torment for everything that he had done in life. Not to mention that he had tortured my mate, and that simply served to intensify my murderous thoughts when it came to my sperm donor.Calvin was never a father to me. I highly doubted that there was even an ounce of empathy inside of him unless it was self-serving. He might not have been a father, but I did indeed have one. Theo had taken me under his wing and taught me what it meant to be a man, mate, father, and Alpha. He taugh

Destined Alpha of Change Epilogue 1
KALEN(Five years later)I rested back on my hands while I watched the beautiful sight in front of me. It was one that I saw often but never got tired of witnessing it.My amazing mate was playing tag with our daughter. Her peels of laughter floated along the wind. It warmed me just as much as the summer sun did.Nadine was definitely daddy’s girl, something that absolutely thrilled him. He was an incredible father, but I had never had a doubt that he would be.Sundays were family days for the three of us. It was our special bonding time and what we always looked forward to. Life got hectic, especially leading the pack and all of the programs that we were a part of. That was precisely why it was imperative that we took time to be with each other as well.“Daddy!” she squealed when he scooped her up in his strong arms.Damn. He was fucking fine and only got sexier as time went on. He still rocked a body that made me drool on a daily basis, and I was not ashamed of that truth.“That’s ri
Destined Alpha of Change Chapter 115
KALENI had never felt sad to return how before. However, I was sad that our vacation had come to an end.Goddess, it was such an amazing experience! I could not have asked for a better travel buddy than my mate. Each destination had been thoroughly thought out and planned. He made certain to arrange all of the places that I had dreamed of visiting and even some that I had never heard about before.We had a blast. Our days and nights were filled with exploring. There was plenty of romance too. Both of us felt closer than ever before. It was amazing for us to get away from reality and immerse ourselves in a world away from everything. We were in our own little bubble.That was not to say that I did not miss anyone though because I did.“I was thinking about something,” my mate said from the seat beside me. I hummed, curious to see what was on his mind.We were about to land at the airport. We would pick up our luggage and head somewhere secluded where our literal disappearances would no
