Raine surprise melted into suspicion.

Raine narrowed her eyes at him. “You’re not stalking me, are you?”

Killian smiled, dimpled and harmless. “You wound me, Raine.” He placed a hand on his chest in mock offense. “It is a coincidence. But, I will admit, rather shamefully, that I spotted you from across the street.” He pointed to the large glass window at the side of the library. One she had failed to notice, opposite it was a large strip mall with a diner at the side. “I was running errands with my sister.”

His sister, Selene Voss. Raine remembered her from the night of her and Ronan’s joining. Standing in the shadows, right at Ronan’s side, her eyes cold and unfeeling as she’d watched Raine being dragged away. Her stomach turned, and her mouth soured.

She glanced around, scared that the woman would pop out from a corner at any second. “She’s not here, is she?”

“Selene?” Killian cocked an eyebrow, cataloguing her reaction. “She’s gone. I told her I wanted to come over and say hi.

    Killian offered to drive her to the pack borders, she was too stumped to offer any form of resistance, and the car ride passed in a tense awkward silence. He dropped her off a few blocks away from the pack borders. Raine was too out of it to question why he wouldn’t go any closer, she got out of the car with a mumbled thanks, and shifted all the way back to the pack. The pack house was full when she got there, people milling about the living room in various states of distress. Most of them glanced up at her when she walked in, before looking away with obvious disdain. She swallowed, keeping her gaze down as she walked around looking for Silas. Many pack wolves, especially the women, whispered behind their hands as she passed, no doubt saying shit behind her back. Raine wasn’t surprised, she’d been kicked out of the pack, only to return and become Ronan’s mate all over again, not to mention, she’d brought Killian to the gathering house all those weeks ago. She wasn’t exactly pack

    After that bombshell was dropped on her, Silas had her, as well as everyone else in the room leave. Saying something about Matthias needing rest, and everybody else needing to get dinner or something. Raine stopped listening after hearing the word lovers. Silas herded them all out, leaving Lyra and Matthias alone in the room. Raine practically boiled with each step she took down the stairs, replaying what she saw over and over again. Matthias smiling up at her, Lyra’s hand on his lap, her face close to his as she murmured in his ear, that coy smile of hers, her gorgeous blonde hair, the fondness in Matthias’s eyes. Raine wanted to punch something. She managed to keep her cool until she got downstairs. The crowd was already thinning when she got downstairs, and she made her way to the kitchen, positioning herself at the spot with the clearest view of the staircase, so she wouldn’t miss it when Lyra came downstairs. As expected, thirty minutes later, Raine spotted her coming dow

    She gasped, her heart pounding in her chest as Matthias drew her close, his breath fanning against her skin, both their chests rising with each hurried breath. Matthias was livid, more furious than she’d ever seen him. And that, more than anything, pissed her off for no particular reason. Snarling, she dragged her arm out of his grip, putting some distance between them. “I’m asking about, Lyra. Don’t change the subject.” Matthias’s fists clenched by his sides, a muscle in his jaw ticking as he fought to restrain himself. “Lyra is none of your business. You have no right to my personal matters, just like how I have no right to yours. We fuck, Raine. Nothing more, nothing less.” Technically, Matthias was right. She’d been the one to draw that line after all. She was mated to someone else, and he was practically a free man. She wasn’t exclusive, so she had no right to ask him to be. This jealousy, was unfounded and unnecessary. Loathe as she was to admit it, Matthias could fuck an

    Killian was in one of his moods again. Selene was not new to them, she didn’t particularly like them, neither did she hate when he did it, she was more or less, nonchalant. What she did hate, was how often he seemed to get them nowadays. Killian Voss was a genius, an enigma of his time. One of the most brilliant minds of their century. But somehow he’d manage to digress to the emotional maturity of a teenage girl in less than a few short months. She glanced up from where she sat, sprawled on the couch in their living room, filing her nails, while Killian paced back and forth, frowning down at a square polaroid picture in his hands. “Killian, sit down! All this pacing is making me antsy.” She snapped, glaring at him. Killian startled, looking at her like he’d forgotten she was even there. He didn’t answer immediately, reaching up to run a hand through his hair. Unable to take it anymore, Selene got to her feet and yanked the picture out of his hands. The people in it were un

    Ronan turned incredibly pale and scampered off of her, staring down at her like she’d just told him she was leaving to join the circus. Selene sat up, frowning up at me as she gathered the sheets close to her. “What’s is it? Did I say something wrong?” Ronan narrowed his eyes. “Was that a joke?” He growled, hands fisting by his sides. “Was what a joke?” She asked, bored now that it seemed Ronan was not interested in having sex anymore. “Don’t play dumb with me! What you said, about Killian liking Raine. Tell me you were joking.” He snarled, speaking like each word was bringing him physical pain. “Why would I joke about something like that?” She pouted up at him. “And more importantly, why does the idea get your panties in such a bunch. You don’t care about her anymore.” “Doesn’t mean I want your brother's grubby paws all over her. Raine belongs to me!” Now Selene was pissed. She pushed the sheets off of her and got to her feet, stomping away from Ronan to put her robe back

    The other woman, whose full name she later found out was Lyra Scott, seemed to be every where in the pack house now. Matthias claimed they hadn’t had sex since Lyra returned from her mission, but Raine seemed to find her walking out of Matthias’s room at every hour. The logical part of her brain told her it was to be expected. Lyra was a medic, and Matthias was injured, still recovering from the wolfsbane laced knife wound. Of course, Lyra would be around more often to monitor his progress. But, the other part of her brain, the more wolf like part was not having it. And to make matters worse, the alpha hadn’t touched her since that day, and Ronan was hardly ever around. On the day he was, he came to bed late, and reeked of another woman. She registered her mate's infidelity absently, keeping notes to use against him much later, too occupied with Matthias and Lyra to pay much attention to Ronan’s indiscretion. That morning, she left the pack house as early as dawn to avoid runnin

    Temptation was a fatal flaw. Killian did not make it a habit to succumb to it. But something about Raine was damning. He stood in the darkness of his bedroom, staring down at the coat draped over his chair. A coat that still smelled like her, fabric that had kissed the pale softness of her naked skin. Killian was usually stronger than this. But the full moon was near. His beast made terrible decisions during this time. Killian decided he’d blame this one on the beast as well. Fingers twitching, he reached for the damned coat and brought it to his nose. He took a lungful, and almost immediately, his cock swelled as he remembered the way she’d looked earlier, pale and golden in the morning sun. A vision. Shaking, Killian dug his hands into the fly of his slacks and took his harden cock in his hand. Burying his face in the coat, breathing in her scent, it took him some strokes of his cock, before his knees buckled and he came all over his gloves, groaning and sinking down t

    “What are you doing?” He asked very carefully, eyeing her like she was a dangerous intruder. Raine shrugged, fighting the urge to wrap her arms around her body and shield herself from his stare. “I realized that I might have acted too harshly.” She said, keeping her voice as calm as she could. “If we’re to be mated again, I think it is only fair I take care of your needs. That way, you won’t feel it is necessary to get your pleasure elsewhere.” Ronan stared her down, eyes narrowed with suspicion. “You want me to have sex with you?” “Yes.” She moved closer, pressing herself against his arm, his wet skin against hers, causing goosebumps to rise over her flesh. “I am your mate. It’ll be good for our wolves to be more intimate. Restore that connection we lost.” “This is a waste of time.” He scoffed in anger, pushing her away. “Our wolves don’t need to be reacquainted because I’m not going to mate with you.” She gaped at him. “But Matthias said-” “I don’t care what he said!” He grow

    “Of course it’s an inside job.” Ronan snorted. “If someone had infiltrated through the wards, there would’ve been an alarm of some sorts. So far there hasn’t. Which means, one of us, smuggled her in and murdered her, for whatever reason.” Matthias glanced at his son, remembering Thalia's earlier words. “Ronan we’ve established this. There are no rats among my men.” “Really?” He scoffed. “Explain this then. If not your men, then who else in this pack has access to wolfsbane?” “Are we about to have a repeat of the other day?” Malte growled, eyes flashing Amber. “I beat your ass once, boy. I’ll do it again If I have to.” Ronan didn’t flinch. He held Malte's gaze, his jaw tight and tense, his eyes dark with danger. “Try it, old man. See what happens this time.” Thalia sneered at him from behind her father, her lips pulling back to reveal her fangs. Matthias slammed his palm against the table, stopping whatever this was from escalating. The sound cracked through the room like a whip.

    Thalia stepped in after him, shutting the door behind her with a slam that was loud enough to quiet the murmuring of the crowd. She stepped to the side, leaving everyone’s attention on Matthias. Silas was the first to speak up. “Alpha, what is going on?” Matthias cleared his throat, keeping his expression neutral. “We have very terrible news. Raine,” he called to her, and she snapped her head up, brows furrowed in confusion. “Please, step forward.” Raine approached with Ronan behind her. Matthias watched as his son’s nose flared, and the boy caught the scent of blood on them. His eyes narrowed, and he stopped a few feet back, watching their interaction with an hawk like attention. “What’s going on?” She asked, glancing around. “Am I in trouble?” “No.” he shook his head, reaching up to rub at the bridge of his nose. “You’re not in trouble.” He cleared his throat, projecting his voice so everyone in the room could also hear. “We found a body tonight.” He said finally, the words c

    Matthias got closer, and his heart lurched violently in his chest. He knew this woman. His heart was in his throat as he crouched down and got a closer look at the woman’s face. “Diane.” He whispered, the name catching in his throat like thorns on a rose. This was Diane Whitmore, Raine’s mother. A woman he hadn’t seen in years, since the death of her mate, Raine’s father. Matthias had known her well. She was younger than him by a few years, and she and he had been mates their whole lives—school, work, even the pack army. And here she was, dead. Nothing but a body in the dirt. He crouched low beside the body, his vison sharpened, his wolf close to the surface, his senses flaring. “Can you smell the wolfsbane on her, Thalia?” He asked, turning his head slightly over his shoulder. Thalia stepped closer, her face stoic and unsmiling. “Yes, alpha. Her lips are blue too, and her skin is almost translucent. Do you think she might have been poisoned?” Matthias nodded, getting to his fee

    All the elders stood in a crescent, calling forward wolves who had proven themselves in the last lunar cycle, hunters, warriors, and mothers. And then came the part Raine had been waiting her whole life for. Elder Maren, one of the oldest members of the pack, having been there since the inception of the first Draven, stepped into the mating circle at the center of the clearing, and spoke, his voice ringing clear through the night. “We call forward Ronan Draven and Raine Whitmore to stand before the pack.” His voice was hoarse and croaking, sending ripples through the gathered crowd. The crowd stilled, murmurs quieted, the crackle of the central bonfire was sudden deafening. Ronan extended his hand forward, Raine glanced down at it, before dragging her gaze back up to him. His gaze was dark and unreadable. Raine hesitated. After a deep breath, she stepped forward, placing her fingers in his hands. His hands tightened around hers, his grip firm, and warm. The kind of touch that

    Maybe it was the Knowledge that every last of their wolves was currently on a run, weaving through the forests around their borders in wolf form. Killian was strong, but even he couldn’t stop a pack of lunar crazed wolves from tearing them to shreds if they were discovered. “Killian,” She called again, when he didn’t reply the first time. “I don’t like it here.” “Neither do I." He snapped. “But it is a necessary evil.” He leaned forward in his seat, the moonlight turning his white hair into silver. His brows furrowed, mouth turning down at the corners as he concentrated on something. He was in that position for a while, until he sat up suddenly. “They’re gone.” He said, “Let’s go.” Selene blinked, skeptical. “They’re done with their run? Already?” “No, not with their run.” He snapped at her, voice cutting like he was speaking to a preschooler. “But they’ve migrated from this place. We have to hurry before they return.” “I don’t know why we couldn’t pick another place to do th
