Some steamy moments coming up next. What do you think should happen to Sharice?
MADDOX I laid her down on the bed and looked at how fucking gorgeous she was. Never in my life had I come across anyone who was anywhere near as stunning as her. Beauty looked at me through her eyelashes. There was undeniable lust in her eyes, but I trusted that she was being honest when she said that it was her talking and not the potion. Neo had also told me that Nika had absorbed the potion by the time that Beauty uttered those precious words of hers. “I need to know what your limits are right now so that I don’t do anything to make you uncomfortable,” I told her as I swept some of the hair off of her face. She licked her lips as she looked me over and thought about what she wanted to occur between us. My eyes tracked that seductive tongue of hers, wondering if it was going to include that at all. Instead of answering, she stood up and peeled her top off. I groaned when I saw her breasts peeking out of the tops of her bra. Then she undid the button on her jeans before shimmying
MADDOX Clothes were inconsequential right now. I had never felt so relaxed before. Honestly, this was also the first time that I ever cuddled someone after the deed was done. We had not done anything further than some oral and bodily teasing, but it was the most intimate thing that I had ever experienced before. I also felt so much closer to her than ever before. It required a great deal of trust on her part to allow herself to be vulnerable like this with me. Knowing that she wanted to give me this part of herself also meant a great deal to me because I knew that she had never given that part of herself to anyone else. It also made me feel fairly fucking guilty because she waited for her mate, but I never did. Honestly, I did not think I could even guestimate how many females I had been with over the years. That was another kick in my gut. The only thing that I could say with absolute certainty was that at least Beauty would be the only one to ever bear my pups. I had made very fu
KALEN“Dad said that you had Vessel things to talk to me about,” I told Mom when I found her in the kitchen.She smirked at me, passed me a cup of her special cocoa recipe, and told me to follow her. She led me into the home office that was soundproofed so as not to be overheard if I had to guess.I settled down on the couch and tucked my legs underneath me as I got comfortable. She sat next to me and mirrored my pose.“Not exactly. He wanted a chance to bond with Maddox, so I thought this was the perfect opportunity for you and me to talk without the male folk around. I just used the Vessel excuse so that he didn’t get nosey.”She winked at me, making me snicker. This was exactly what I needed right now. I had no idea what Dad wanted to talk to Maddox about, but I was thankful that he was bonding with my mate.Maddox had his mother in his life for such a short amount of time before he was left with a father who was incapable of decency. It was amazing to see my mate in awe during our
KALENI rushed into the bedroom and looked around. I could still scent what we had gotten up to earlier.Goddess, that man was so damn talented. It sucks that others have experienced how good he was, but I would be the only one to keep him. The past would remain exactly right there. We would keep moving forward together. It would be together that we could get through anything.It was him, Neo, Nika, and me. The four of us would have each other until our final breath.I had already moved my clothes over here, so I looked through my lingerie options. I might have had Jade procure some for me whenever Maddox and I took steps towards intimacy. He did not seem to mind me completely naked instead wearing a sexy outfit. The hunger that had burned through his eyes and body had set my entire being aflame.Jade seriously outdid herself. I selected a turquoise baby doll. There was a lace floral pattern over the cups. The rest was see-through with a lace design on the hemline. There was a matching
MADDOXI had thought that today could not make me any happier than I was when Theo and I were bonding. However, this right here exceeded that by far. She wanted me. I did not even mean sexually even though I loved being sexually wanted by her. What I meant was that she wanted to tie herself to me despite everything.Calvin had wanted me to be his good little soldier and do his dirty work. Females wanted me but was only about sating their lust. Nobody had ever truly wanted me, but she did. There was no fucking telling what in my life had warranted the blessing that was Beauty and Nika, but I was more than thankful for them.She was so fucking sexy in this piece of lingerie that left very little to the imagination. The image of her kneeling on the bed when I entered the room would now and forever be burned into my memory. She looked like my sexy little innocent angel, but I knew there was a she-devil inside of her. My little she-devil that I could not wait to fully corrupt.“This is a pr
KALENHe made me feel stronger and more secure in who I was. He gave me a great deal of confidence too. How could I not feel sexy and strong when he looked at me like he did?Mom was right that he looked at me like I was his everything. He had quickly become mine too. I was not certain when or how it happened, but it was the truth. I could be without many things, but I could not be without him.I was nervous as hell right now but also extremely eager to solidify our bond. We still had things to figure out when it came to the pack and all, but that could be done later. I would need to discuss it with Maddox, but I figured that I would just make him a co-Alpha like the Nightshade twins and Shadow Falls triplets.“I’m going to still once I’m through your barrier until you’re ready for me to move. Just focus on my ladder piercings,” he told me with a smirk.My eyes probably lit up with that thought because it was something that I truly could not wait to feel. Having it in my mouth gave me
MADDOXI could not get enough of Beauty. Her scent, taste, the way her body responded to me, and how fucking incredible she was. It created a completely insatiable need for her. I was not the only one with that insatiable need though.We both lost count of how many times we came, completely lost within the haze of being with each other. Had I not been the one to take her virginity then I never would have guessed that last night had been the first time she had sex. I was not going easy on her either. She greedily took everything I threw at her and threw her own right back at me. She was a fucking vixen. I woke up before she did and took a few minutes to truly admire her beauty and the incredible gift that she gave to me – her heart. She placed her trust in me and gave it, and I would be damned if I ever broke it again. I would rather rip my own out instead and drop it at her feet as an offering.Might as well wake my goddess of a mate in the manner that I would prefer to always wake he
KALEN Dad called for a pack meeting before dinner so that we could announce Maddox as a future co-Alpha. Maddox had been taken aback by my offer of us being co-Alphas. He felt that he did not deserve it. He had been beaten down his entire life, so he never felt good enough for anything. He felt weak, but he was the furthest thing from that. He was strength incarnate. Look at everything that he had been through and survived in his life. Few could have accomplished that. When we were alone, he asked me why I would share the post with him. It was my birthright after all. Our situation was unique because most Alphas were male. Their mate would then become Luna. However, I never wanted to subject Maddox to the type of prejudicial hate that I faced all of my life. I honestly believed that this was the best path forward for our pack. There was an instinct inside of me that told me so. I really did not care what anyone else thought as long as Maddox was on board with me. “You ready to sho
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
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
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
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
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
MADDOX(Eighteen years following Epilogue 1)Today was a day that we had been waiting for while also dreading at the same time because it showed that our little girl was finally ready to spread those wings of hers.Nadine was more than ready to become the next Alpha of Dark Moon. There was so much of Beauty in her. Our daughter was a true badass just like her mother. She was so fucking strong and so fucking resilient. I was incredibly proud to be her father.Before Beauty came into the picture, I had never allowed myself to imagine a future where I would have pups because I felt like a piece of shit that would destroy anything that I touched, including a mate and pups. However, my amazing mate brought me out of the darkness that had at one point consumed my entire life.“Dad, can you help me with my tie?” Roman asked.I finished tying my own first and turned around to smile at my son. He looked really fucking suave in his suit.“Sure thing, son.”My other son also popped on over to get

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
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
