Thanks for reading!
ZAIA. The animalistic look in his eyes as his eyes rake over me, the hunger and passion that he’s unable to hide, makes me giddy and I hate it. Why does he have such an effect on me? It hurts and I just wish it didn’t… It’s almost as if he’s about to grab me and I turn away quickly. “Then get it
“He isn’t going in,” Dad says firmly as he looks at Valerie, who glances at me. I raise my hands in surrender, before passing her the antidote. “That’s fine. Just… I need to know if it’ll work.” It has to. Fuck at this moment a part of me is terrified that if this fails… everything I did was in va
My eyes blaze as her words ring in my mind, my head suddenly begins thumping and the sudden ringing in my ears intensifies. He deceived me… Everything I did… was for fucking nothing… I clench my fists, trying to control myself from shifting, turning and ripping the enemy to shreds. I’m about to
ZAIA. ‘The antidote didn’t work, but there’s a way.’ Valerie's words ring in my mind as I look ahead, shaken. No matter how doubtful I felt, I wanted to believe it was the truth. Everything… was for nothing… My eyes blur for a moment as she notifies us. She is on the way. My heart is thumping as
Sebastian crouches down. “So, any ideas about how this would work?” “I guess. Just do what feels right?” I suggest, remembering how the Moon Dust worked similarly. “Through touch, like when I touched Atticus and Valerie.” I slowly reach down and begin to unwrap the bandages I had wrapped around my
I can hear Sia’s heartbeat become stronger and the sparks from Sebastian and my touch intensify. My breath hitches as the white light begins to fade and I look at Sia, gasping at the smile on her face. Her skin is no longer sallow, her heart is strong and rhythmic, and she is breathing evenly. “Si
HUGH. I snarl as I push Jai out of the way, making it just in time as Zade is ready to rip his heart out. Seeing my son for the first time with an expression of hatred twisting his face is not what a father hopes for. He turns the gun, cocking the trigger as he turns it on me. There’s recognition
A good beta. “Too late to pretend to care. I need to get this over with so I can go grab my nephew.” He says mockingly, tilting his head to the side. Unease floods me and I shake my head. No… Zaia has come too far for this… far too far. I will never let anyone hurt her or the children again! “The
“Careful, Tobias,” one of the men warns.I sip my champagne. “I assure you; I am very critical of him too, but what I do know is he topped in every field in comparison to every other alpha in the state. He is known to be fair, reasonable, and strong enough to handle the pressure that leading the sup
~ MILENA ~“I know. Nice to meet you, Mrs King. I’m Milena,” I introduce myself as I offer her my hand, but she moves closer, giving me a hug.“Lovely to meet you, Milena. Call me Zaia.” She moves back and looks at Valerie. “This is my good friend and Zion’s aunty, Valerie.”“Nice to meet you, Docto
~~~ An hour later we are walking into a luxurious glamourous venue where the security is intense. Nothing went by undetected and I’m glad the broken vase piece is clay because we were checked over with metal detectors at the second stop before a third set of guards checked any bags. I’m not carryin
~ MILENA ~“So, you’re really not going to give me a weapon to carry?” I call through the door as I get into the dress he purchased for me. It’s gorgeous, a plain deep maroon with a slit down the left thigh and pools on the floor. It pushes up my breasts, and the corset is damn fucking tight. It’s a
I clench my jaw. “No. Nothing.”She snorts. “Right, so want my help or not?”“How can I trust that you won’t just fucking walk away?”“I told you why I was sent here. What would walking away get me when I learned fuck-all about you? Like really, what do you want from me, Zion?”“Something that will
~ ZION ~“Do you want to tell me what the hell you’re doing with a human!” Dad snarls, trying to control his anger. “This is something I’d expect from Xander, not you.”“I’m not a child that you need to tell off, Dad. I am capable of making my own decisions. You shouldn’t have come here.”“Oh really
He glares at his phone as it goes to the answering machine and turns his head to the men who had hurried in behind him, looking tense. It’s clear Zion may be their boss, but Sebastian King is still his goddamned father.“Call Zion and tell him to get here immediately.”“Yes, Alpha.” One of the men l
~ MILENA ~The next few days I didn’t see Zion, left alone with just a TV that allows only a few movies to play, the access to the internet was blocked on everything. The internet is non-existent.I felt suffocated, not knowing what to think. Will he agree? Because otherwise, I would love to know wh
“Right, but really, do you think I’m looking for a way to kill you? I’m trying to get answers here,” she snaps. “Why can’t you understand that?”“Because you tried to kill me, remember?”“Because you killed my brother. You knew who he was and yet carried on with this pretend relationship. You used m
