THEO

It had broken me when we had our talk on the couch because I was forced to see the true depth of the pain that I caused her. I had hurt her so fucking badly, and it gutted me to see those tears. However, the talk was cleansing for the both of us.

I had been surprised when she asked me to stay with her, but I was even more surprised when she let me hold her while she slept. I had never felt as complete in my entire life as I did right then.

It was hard for me to think about going back to the pack because of the danger that lurked within Dark Moon’s borders. However, I would keep her safe one way or another. I would destroy anyone who tried to harm her. The good news was that Dante, a guy named Chris, and a Light Fae named Pylorna would be there to help. Dante’s gift let him see what the eyes could not and would be the best option to sniffing out our traitors.

Our last day in Nightshade was spent around the pack. We even rode dragons. Nothing could compare to that experience. Di

I don’t mind a roller coaster as long as they aren’t going backwards or having trouble with each other!

    THEO I woke up just in time to turn my alarm off before it woke Brynn up fully. One thing that I loved about her was that she definitely enjoyed cuddling while she slept. However, it was a double-edged sword because having her sexy little body unknowingly grinding on me did not help to keep myself under control. I smiled down on her sleeping face and loved how perfectly she fit in my arms. This would be something that I would never tire of and hoped that she kept doing. I pressed a chaste kiss on her soft lips. “Brynn, baby, it’s time to wake up,” I said softly. “Lies,” she whispered, squeezing her eyes shut tightly. “If you’re not out of bed in the next sixty seconds then I’ll take it super fucking easy on you during our match,” I warned her. She pushed me out of bed and dove off my side of it, running into the bathroom faster than I had ever seen someone move before. I was not even mad that I hit my head on the wall. My girl was something else alright. I shook my head and went

    BRYNN I was really tired of people talking shit about Theo. It did not involve them whatsoever, so why did they feel otherwise? They needed to pull their noses out of our business. If I lost my shit, then there was no guarantee that they would survive it. Our three friends followed us out to the training grounds. I peeked over my shoulder and saw Chris and Dante exchanging smirks. They were future Alpha and future Beta, so they were bound to have the same driving force when it came to fighting. Higher ranks typically had more dominant wolves. Therefore, their drives were typically more advanced too. Plus, look at them. Their muscles had muscles that also had a set of muscles. My father was speaking with Sebastian but stopped when he saw me. His eyes flicked to Theo who was right beside me, and I knew exactly what that look conveyed. He was furious about the rejection and what it did to me. I was his baby girl, and he would strike down the gods themselves if need be in order to prote

    THEO Fucking hell. Brynn was an all-around beast. Was there anything she did that she was not amazing at? There was no doubt about it. I had to get her to come to next year’s Alpha Games. “Do you know where I live?” she asked me once training was over. I nodded because of course I did, but I did not want to make it seem creepier than it already was for her to know that I had liked her for years. “I want to go shower and everything before the run, so you can meet me there if you’d like,” she offered. “Sounds like a plan. I’ll see you soon,” I said, kissing her forehead. I watched her sexy body walk away. The back looked just as good as the front, and I was already painfully hard just from touching her body during training. She might have been trying to injure me, but I enjoyed feeling her body against mine – the curves, the muscles, and the heat. Again, it was a double-edged sword, but I would gladly impale myself on it if it meant working alongside her. Jackson threw his arm aro

    BRYNN “What’s going on between you and Seb?” Maya asked me after cornering me in the bathroom. I listened carefully to make sure that there was nobody in the bathroom with us. Despite everything else, I did not want to share personal shit with people who did not need to know. It was none of their business. “He’s not happy with me and Alpha Theo,” I told her. “That’s a loaded statement that we need to unpack. Let’s start with the first part. What’s up with you two?” I sighed, running my hand through my hair, and jumping up on the counter. It was the same question that I would have if our situations were reversed. I just hoped that she would take it better than he did. His reaction still hurt to think about because it was completely out of character. I never realized that Sebastian saw me as anything other than a friend. To say that I had been blindsided would be the understatement of the entire year. It worried me that perhaps I had led him on without ever realizing it. That thoug

    BRYNN Everyone in the know about our current dilemma was currently in Alpha Dominic’s office. My father officially joined our group as well. My father was dealing with a lot of guilt and anger when it came to my current situation. He did not know how to help me and keep me safe because there were still so many unknown factors surrounding everything. He was also angry as fuck that the guy who murdered his mate in cold blood was now eager to get his paws on me. The thing about my father was that he could be your biggest ally or your worst enemy. He was fiercely loyal, protective, and would do anything to keep me safe. Pylorna had placed a protective barrier in the office, making it completely soundproof. It was amazing to see what Fae was capable of doing. Before going to Nightshade, I had not even put thought to any supernatural species beyond our own. I quickly realized that this world was far more diverse than I ever even knew. Not only had I met Fae, but also vampires, and dragon

    THEO ‘Alpha Theo, this is Sebastian Coldwater. I needed to speak to you immediately.’ The mindlink paused for a moment. ‘It’s about Brynn’s safety.’ Those words were the only reason that I had agreed to meet up with the little bitch in the middle of the damn night. I was still stuck on how he had frightened her that day on her porch. It was not okay for anyone to do that. ‘Come to my suite. Let me know when you’re here,’ I told him. I looked down at my sleeping beauty, smiling at how peaceful she looked. I was just incredibly thankful that she was willing to give me a chance to prove myself to her. There was nothing I would not do to keep her safe and happy. I kissed Brynn’s head and tried to sneak out of bed because I did not want to wake her. She had been through so much lately and deserved a good night’s rest. “Where’s my cuddle buddy going?” she asked with a pout. She was so fucking adorable. From adorable to sexy goddess and everything in between. “Sebastian just linked me

    BRYNN Dante offered to take guard duty with Khalid overnight so that he could get a peek inside of him. The sly smirk that he sent me was enough to tell me that he had some unique methods. I could not wait to hear everything about them. The dream started out with Theo and I strolling through Dark Moon territory at twilight. The backdrop of mountains always looked majestic with the blended colors in the sky. Our territory was a gorgeous place to live. It had been exceptionally quiet since we apprehended Khalid a few weeks ago. Alpha Glenn of Nightshade was in the process of tracking down Veronica, hoping that it would lead us to the Eyes. Sadly, it had not turned up any leads so far. “I love you, baby. I don’t expect you to say it back, but I wanted you to know how I feel about you,” Theo said, dropping a kiss to the top of my head. His words caused my heart to skip a beat. Sebastian called me out on being in love with Theo for years, but I had not realized at the time that it was

    BRYNN “Why are we sneaking around?” Pylorna asked me. “Yeah. That’s a great question,” Maya said. We were walking through the mall. Pylorna was with me right now as protection. Sebastian knew the entire story of what was going on, but I was hesitant to tell anyone else. It would put a target on Maya’s back, so she did not know anything about it for now. It killed me, but I cared more about her safety. She would understand when I could finally tell her everything. If not then I would just give her a spa weekend and a bottle of wine. “We’re not sneaking around. I need to do some shopping for a specific reason,” I corrected them, hoping they would just leave it, but of course that would never happen. Maya stopped in front of me and crossed her arms over her chest. She stuck me with her ‘don’t bullshit me’ glare that always worked, and this time was no different. “Tonight, is going to be special,” I said, looking around for any eavesdroppers. “Theo and I are going to complete our bon

  • His Hunt for Redemption   Sneak Peek at Book Two

    SNEAK PEEK – “DESIGN OF FATE” - JACKSON Imeela. The name sounded like a prayer. Imeela was my mate that I met two days ago when she was being attacked by a group of vampires. She had held her own very well until it was not. Brynn had got me out of bed for a road trip but would not tell me where we were going. Luckily, she had the forethought to bring warriors with us. Goddess, she fought them like a lethal warrior. Not only was she deadly, but she was fucking gorgeous too. Brynn worked her charm and convinced her to come back here. She was given the choice to either use the extra bedroom in my suite or a guest room. Thankfully, she chose my suite. Well, our suite. However, she was extremely reserved, but I could not blame her. It was easy to see that her life had not been easy. That hurt Zeus and me to think about. She had woken up screaming from a nightmare this morning, and now she had been pacing in her room for the past hour. I had no idea what she was going through, but tha

    BRYNN “Have you guys decided on his name yet?” I asked, looking at the beautiful cherub in his arms. Beautiful blue eyes, peachy skin, a head of hair that matched his mother’s color, and the most adorable button nose. He was so perfect. “Matteo Ray,” he said, smiling at his firstborn. “Ray after his godmother just with a y instead of an e,” he said, winking at me. Tears stung my eyes, but I desperately tried to keep them there because it would ruin my view of the little guy. It had meant everything to me when they asked me and Theo to be godparents to their son. To share the same middle name as him meant just as much to me. I took Kalen from her father and got her situated. Goddess, she was two now, and each day was a new adventure. Everyone, us included, had been very surprised with how calm she generally was. There were times when that calm wore off, but that was a rarity in comparison. It seemed that the Goddess’ blessing was quite literal with blessing her with both strength a

    THEO Remember that flash drive the doctor mentioned? Yeah, it had quite a bit of fucking shit on it. The contents definitely gave the Council everything that they needed to intervene. Trust me when I said that they definitely decided to intervene in a creative way once the bastard was apprehended. Would you care to take a guess what they decided? Mhm. Exactly! They called my mate in. So, we headed back over to Coverstone with a viewing party, consisting of all the leadership. Dahlia was thrilled to be brought in officially as Gamma Female. She was a multi-threat personality, so we would see how this played out. Brynn decided that we would be playing a new game. She still had not explained to any of us what it would entail other than to imagine Twister meets carnival games. That explanation really set me ablaze with need. I needed to witness this game and needed to see what damage it would cause. From what we understood, it would be the dipshit CEO, the doctor, and the P.A. all in

    BRYNN Today would be interesting to say the least. We had a few things to accomplish, so we began our day early. Mira wanted to come along, and she accomplished it with those damn wolfy pup eyes that she perfected. That was her terminology, and I would never be able to think or say puppy dog eyes ever again. Our first stop would be to Coverstone so that I could question the doctor and P.A. myself. Trust me that was not why she wanted to tag along. Nope. It was because of our second stop. Theo, Mira, and I would be visiting the site where the study was being conducted. As such, we needed to look the part. That was why I donned a midnight blue pencil skirt and matching blazer with a white blouse underneath it. My hair was pulled back into a twisted bun. Only minimal makeup was on my face because I had always preferred to have a fresh look. Then I put on low heels because I did not want to kill my feet too much today. Mira looked so adorable in her little business outfit. She had insi

    THEO We had left Scarsdale in promising hands. Alpha Scott, even though he insisted on us still calling him Scott, had many great plans to strengthen the pack and cleansing it of his father’s touch. We made sure that he understood that we were only a call or text away. Caleb and Thalia were growing closer and developing a sibling bond. She felt overwhelmed at times, but my mate was definitely helping her to find her place in the pack. Thalia had a rough life thus far, so we wanted her to feel free and happy. Brynn had taken it upon herself to work with her each day as she taught her self-defense. Thalia was a hard worker and eager to learn everything that she could. I watched as Brynn walked hand in hand with Mira from the swing set. These two females were everything to me. Although, I should add in the third one that I had yet to meet. Some of the guys had joked that I must be hoping for a little boy to help counterbalance the estrogen in the house. It would not bother me if all o

    THEO Scott was left with the Council and their warriors to get things situated. Luna Charlotte and Richard offered to help Scott, but he just asked her to rest. Robert offered to take her to lay down somewhere, but she did not want to go back to the Alpha floor. He understood that and offered to take her to his home. They both looked happy with the truth of their mate-bond. They would have their own trials to overcome, but I believed that they could be happy together. We went with Caleb to see Thalia. He was extremely nervous, knowing that this was his sister. He also felt guilty because he had left, and even if he did not know that she was his sister, the truth remained the same. He escaped and found a good life for himself, but she was left here within the clutches of a lunatic Alpha. Hopefully he would one day see it was not a burden that he should carry. The past needed to be left in the past so that the future could be embraced. Caleb stood in front of the door that Scott had

    BRYNN While the bastard Alpha was apprehended, we would need to deal with the remaining pack. An Alpha set the standard for a pack. This Alpha was a fucking bastard who did extremely despicable things, so it was safe to say that there would be more in this pack who shared the same ideals. First, we needed to speak with Scott. The safest option was for her to mindlink him, getting him up here. I helped her rinse off the powder first so that it was possible. Surprisingly, I was able to keep my anger reigned in when I took stock of even more injuries. Luna Charlotte was extremely embarrassed that someone else was seeing the state that she was in even if that embarrassment was misplaced because there was nothing to be embarrassed about. It did not take a rocket scientist to pinpoint what caused her to feel that way. “I want you to look into my eyes so that you know I’m speaking the truth with these words.” I paused until her eyes met mine. “What he did to you is unforgivable and shows

    THEO As much as I did not want my mate to be on this mission, I did see how much her presence had already helped. From being able to pull on the shadows for our cover to doing what she did with the chick in the kitchen. Brynn and Moira had both been training hard with Tris and Paise to master her Vessel abilities. They still had not been able to identify them all since there were hundreds of possible abilities that previous Vessels had of their own. Not everyone had the same abilities. Thus, it was a long process of figuring out which ones they were able to utilize. ‘Our mates are powerful and sexy,’ Zen commented. ‘Not to mention that they both are really adventurous.’ He snickered as he remembered the last time that Moira surprised him by calling him out to her trail and attacked him. Okay, attack was definitely a loose term. You could not attack the eager and very willing. Her howls of pleasure were loud enough to catch the attention of a couple of patrol wolves. When they came
