Here you go, lovelies. Which perspective are you wanting the most during the battle?
DANTEIt was a great thing that we had brought so many people because the enemies were numerous and filled with some serious fucking power.Byron and I wanted to rush out there and rip the fucker’s throat out with the way that he was looking at our mate and the things that he was saying. However, what kept me grounded was knowing that she and our people could be caught in the crossfire. I could not allow that to happen.Did you want to know something seriously fucking amusing? How easily my girl got underneath the fucker’s ugly fucking skin. He was either the star of or the instigator in most of her nightmares. He was the one who imprisoned and tortured her in every single fucking way possible.Watching Elle up against the bitchy Bandore or Brynn up against the fucker who murdered her mother had nothing on this showdown.I had been threading the enemies vines together since the moment that they showed up. Not only had I put in a lot of time and effort to master this, but my girl also g
FZIYAH‘Watch over Charlene, our pup, and Dante for me. I’ll kick your ass as Casper if you dare to feel guilty. This is what the Goddess wanted, and it’s my honor.’Those were Chris’ last words to me…He sacrificed himself to save me. Why would the Goddess have him do that? My life was not more important than his. My heart was breaking because he meant so much to all of us. Life was so fucking unfair! Damnit!I threw a spear of energy right through the demon that was responsible for this. I watched as his head hit the ground, but it did not fix anything.His heartbeats were very faint, and he was struggling to breathe. He was three-quarters dead, but he was not gone yet.Chris’ body transformed back into his form, and I could easily see where he had been stabbed. The blade was no longer in him, which was allowing his blood to pour out from it. I placed one hand over that area and one over his heart.My aura swirled around us and was far more fucking potent than ever before because it
KADE Carnage was everywhere I looked. Luckily, I had yet to feel any tethers breaking. Honestly, I believed that the extra protections that Ziyah had ensured that we all had was the thing keeping that from happening thus far. Although, I would never take that for granted. I had seen how amazing the Protectors were when it came to fighting while we were preparing for this, but that was entirely different than them being in front of the enemy. I remembered when Dante was fangirling over how brutal they were once he realized what and who Caiathus was. Brutal did not even come close to the reality of it though. There was a reason why they were chosen to protect those with important destinies. Tyre and I chuckled when we saw the pure excitement on Apollo’s face. I had never seen him happier about his gift than when Imeela was training him on how to weaponize it. He might name his next child in honor of her. Was I kidding? Nope. Hopefully Vienna did not mind the name or any variation of i
ELLE ‘You need to go to group four. A witch who has been hiding throughout this battle is about found. She is Castor Windham’s mate, and you must protect her. She is not here willingly and could not escape because of the barrier. She wanted no part in aiding the Klarish clan but was their prisoner and was brought here because of her powerful magic. It has been bound so that she could not harm anyone aligned with his clan. She has not harmed anyone on your side,’ Selene told me. I told Kade that Selene needed me to go to group four, then I told Caiathus where I needed to go immediately. He wasted no time in getting me there. Faye directed me where to go, and I ran as quickly as I could. Caiathus was right beside me, unsure what the urgency was about. However, he knew me well enough to know that something serious was wrong. There was growling coming from one of the buildings. I pointed to it, and he popped us right there. “STOP!” I yelled when two of our warriors went to destroy the
DANTE ‘Congratulations, Dante. You did it,’ the Goddess said proudly. ‘You cleansed her of the chains of her past. Toris was the epicenter of those chains, so killing him set her free. She will always remember her past, just as we all do, but you gave peace to her soul by doing so. This is my blessing to your bond: never will there be a stronger mate-bond in existence than that which is between you, Ziyah, and Byron.’ My girl gave me the most sincere smile I had ever seen grace her face before, having heard the Goddess’ words as well. Thankfully, she had materialized some shorts for me to slip on. Shifting back, I went ahead and pulled them on quickly. I reverently kissed her forehead because we did not have the time to fully celebrate but would later on. It meant everything for me to know that I had been able to do that for her and Byron was part of it as well. We had both vowed on the day that we found her that we would protect our mate and make those who had hurt her in the pas
ZIYAH The apprehension intensified the moment that we popped up there, which did nothing to calm my nerves. Something had either just turned wrong or about to turn that way. There were no ifs, ands, or buts about this because I t was just definitive. My eyes were drawn to the left where a surge of fear pointed the way. I grabbed onto Dexter’s fur and popped next to the building. There were two people inside the building, and a Darkie in the doorway, with his back towards me. He was looking at one of Nightshade’s warriors who was protecting a woman that was behind him. I gestured for Dexter to go around to the other side of the building to help get them out through the window or if I could get the Darkie away from the building. “Hey, ugly fucker. I’m crossing off the Darkies’ numbers off the list of the living. Are you up next?” I taunted him. This would be even easier than I thought after I saw who he was. Toris’ baby bro. He loved to torture me in every way he could, so this wou
DANTE None of us had truly known what to expect from this battle because there were many unknowns. Preparation could only take us so far. The rest had to be dealt with on the spur of the moment. This was, by far, the most intense battle I had ever taken part in. Shadow Falls had two tether snaps, but I was unsure who they belonged to just yet. Our pack was a family, so these losses were closer as a result of that as well. I vowed right here and now that their families would be watched after. It was the least we could do to honor their sacrifices. I already knew that my mate would feel nothing but guilt even if it was misplaced. Fighting and dying for our pack and family was the most honorable way that we could go out. Honestly, we would have lost countless others had it not been for Ziyah. People had been helping to keep tabs on her for me throughout the battle so that I could be grounded in the knowledge that she was okay while the battle raged on. The last count that had come i
KADEThree warriors had been lost between our pack and Shadow Falls. They all died in the same manner. The one from ours and two from theirs had fought to protect innocent children that had been brought as a distraction. They went out like heroes, and we would never forget their sacrifice.Caiathus had come and relayed that Dante was advised to take his mate home because her body was drained from how much she had to fight today. Magic, physical fighting, all of that healing, and everything in between.One thing that I admired about Ziyah was that she had a fucking amazing warrior’s spirit. I had never encountered a more brutal fighter than her. I could already imagine that their pups would end up being just as fucking brutal. Hell, Blakely had the same soul skill as her mother. Not to mention that she was also of strong Alpha blood and strong Fae blood. Only idiots would cross the next generation.Cleanup took hours, a fuckton of volunteers, and magic to dispose of the corpses. We wer
BYRONI looked over at my mate and smiled, proud as hell to call her mine.We had all come such a long way since the fateful day when she crossed our borders.We had never anticipated finding our mate when she was literally running for her life. Goddess, she instantly became our everything from the moment that we saw her. She was more than we had ever thought that a mate could be. She was so fucking strong to have survived everything in life that she had. It was an honor to be loved by her. She was the best Luna, mate, lover, friend, and mother. Our years had been filled with far more love than we thought existed.It had been so fucking difficult to live beyond our loved ones’ lifespans, but we would never have changed our decision to bind ourselves to her. A longer life was also a blessing because we were able to watch over and protect the families of our loved ones.Danthali, Ylonte, and Slyersa gave us encouraging smiles and said that they would see us soon once we arrived at our d
ZIYAHToday was a monumental event of epic fucking proportions. It was our Ascension Ceremony. My mates and I were going to become Gods and Goddess.Pause. Rewind. Play…Nope, it was still the same truth. I remembered when they presented this honor to me during my first time meeting them. It was something that I could not even comprehend no matter how much I thought about it.Me, Ziyah Trelinin, was offered this amazing gift of becoming a Goddess. I remembered locking myself in the bathroom at one point and crying my eyes out. By the gods, I had felt so guilty for being jaded while underneath Toris’ reign of terror because I thought they had abandoned me. They did not though. They were right there with me when I thought I was all alone.Something that I had learned throughout my life was that the Gods did watch and did hear. Unfortunately, they were limited in what they were allowed to do. Even Gods had laws that had to be kept. However, they would intervene if they could. Sometimes th
To all of my amazing readers, I am happy to tell you that “Fated to the Alphas – Chased by Chaos” is now officially up on the app and ready to begin being read. Now, onto other important matters. First and foremost, I would like to thank you for how much support you have given me throughout these books. I love reading all of your comments, whether they are negative or positive, and use them to help shape the story as it evolves. Honestly, I was not certain how far, or in what ways, I wanted to design this universe when Kade and Elle’s story was first taking shape. All of the support that I found helped that design to take shape. The introduction of Caiathus into the mix was the turning point that made me want to dive deep into species integration. There was a lot of hell that these characters had to face, but there was much more joy to balance it out. It taught them that they never had to go through anything alone. That was precisely why this third book was told from all four main
SNEAK PEEK – “FATED TO THE ALPHAS – CHASED BY CHAOS” –ANGEL I rubbed my arms, trying to provide even a small amount of warmth to my freezing body. Would it be too much to ask my kidnappers to give me a damn blanket? In the dark, the silence was too loud. Thoughts, fears, and what-ifs clamored, demanding my attention. How could my life have changed so drastically in twenty-four hours? My eyes closed as my mind conjured their images for me. My Alphas, the ones that I had always desired. Just yesterday, I was entangled in their arms for the first time. I was finally able to free the emotions that I had kept hidden all of these years. I bit my lip hard to hold in the cries that were begging to be freed. I looked around the barely lit room that was my prison. It was bare. Apparently, they believed I would try to make a weapon out of a damn pillow. ‘Breathe,’ Athena told me. ‘We will just have to play it by ear. They’re bound to come and tell us why the fuck they brought us here. Pe
ALDAN Kade had pulled me aside earlier to check in on me, knowing that this visit to her home pack was bound to be incredibly difficult. My instincts would be demanding that I protect her and ensure that all who hurt her at any point be dealt with. I was thankful for the peptalk because it reminded me of an important truth. This trip was going to be rough on my mate. I needed to be her pillar of support. Kellis and I were officially bonded. It took a while for her to feel comfortable enough for us to seal the deal because of everything that had happened to her. I never wanted her to be wary of our time together, so I waited until she deemed that she was ready. Grant’s memories were extremely helpful, which was why the Goddess let them remain. He was able to help me understand how to approach her in a way that gave her absolute control. Her walls were paper-thin right now, so I was able to see some of what was going through her mind. That bastard father that just threatened her was
KELLIS How did I describe Aldan and Grant? That was a fantastic question, fantastic indeed. The situation that we met each other in was one that I would never have wished even on an enemy. I could only imagine how my mates had felt when they saw what was happening. I had tried so fucking hard to fight them, but they were much stronger than me. I was helpless, and that was a feeling that I loathed with passion. I had expected that he would reject me. Who would want a mate like I was? I remembered how my heart raced when he saved me from them. It raced as he offered a safe space in his pack. He did not reject me, but I still feared that he would one day. Meeting Elle, as she insisted that I called her, was awkward at first since Grant was technically once her wolf-mate but knowing that there had never been any type of intimate attachment eased my heart. She really was an amazing woman who I was thankful for meeting. I also appreciated what she did for Grant because he was given to me
AYLA Carson and I had gotten to know each other some last night. We had many things in common, but we also had enough differences to keep things interesting. We were both family-focused. He was close with his three children – two sons and a daughter. His mate, Cora, had passed away six years ago during a rogue attack. It was a miracle that he had survived, but he took it as a sign that his family and people needed him. I had briefly told him about Drell. We could understand what it was like to lose your other half. It left a gaping hole in your heart. Time helped to fill it in some, but it never truly healed entirely. Oddly, it was comforting that he could understand me with this and vice versa. He was easy-going and a very curious creature. I decided to tell him about our clan when we were at the estate today. It was normally a tightly-guarded secret, but I knew that I could trust him with it. It was a gut feeling – an instinct – which told me that Carson would hold my secret secu
AYLA I knew it the moment that I caught his spiced cinnamon scent. My eyes found one hell of a handsome man. He was dressed in slacks and a button-down shirt. It was ripped in places and was stained with blood from battle, but it still looked good on him. It was at the moment that our eyes connected that I felt the tether that bound his soul with mine. It was odd to think that after all of these years, fate finally decided to toss me curveball and give me a fated bond to someone. Drell and I had a long and happy life together that brought us a large family. He was my best friend growing up, and our relationship developed from there. I would always love him, but I knew that he would want me to be happy. It took a long while for me to feel like I could breathe after his death, but it eventually happened. However, there was always something missing. I felt complete when it came to my family and my duty, but I did not feel complete. It was always easier to keep my sexual partners at a
DANTE The Council had been tracking the current of a group of rogues that was hitting packs in a seemingly random pattern, but we realized that they were doing that shit to simply throw us off. So, they were making an issue in Zone A so that people were focused their instead of Zone D, which was the real target. My girl believed that the Fire Stone pack was the next true target. The issue with these rogues was that they seemed to be altered somehow. Imagining the difference between real turtles and the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Thus, we pulled out the heavy hitters. We had Enforcers, Kade, Elle, Caiathus, me, my Sexy Fae, and a group of the Trelinin clan, which did include our favorite Granny Ayla. Unfortunately, we did not make it there before everything began, but we made it just after the rogues showed up. The good news for us was that it was easy to pinpoint these rogues. Their scent resembled garbage, and they had a dark aura around them for some reason that we had yet to
