VALERIE. Sleep comes and goes as we travel towards the Whispering Mountain Pack. It’s a long drive, and we’ll be there in another three hours. Damien and Anthony stayed behind to keep an eye on things, and I did manage to check Damien’s injuries before we left. He’ll be ok with some rest. Adriana
“Oh… I’m sorry.” I wish he told me. Shelby treated me well and always made me feel welcome. “You had a lot going on, besides Miss Linette has been taking good care of her.” “Thank you, Patrick,” I reply. “We have two injured she-wolves who need medical care, preferably in their quarters. I will te
“All done, Doctor?” Zade asks as he comes over when I finally peel my latex gloves off. “In here yes,” I say, thinking my most important patient is left. “You didn’t need to wait with me.” He wraps his arms around me, and I lean against him. I’m tired, but he was the one who drove here and didn’t
ZADE.She took nearly two hours tending to me, which pushed me to the point I said I’m fine with someone else taking a look as I knew she was tired. The only reply from her was a tap to the back of my head and a mutter of how annoying I am.She’s angry and I can’t blame her. It probably looks way fu
“One thousand fucking percent,” I breathe, yanking her down and kissing her roughly as I begin meeting her thrusts with my own. She gasps as she holds onto my shoulders, speeding up.“Fuck, I’m close,” she whimpers, her head tilted back as her eyes flutter shut.“Eyes on me, Little Mate.” I suddenly
How did I even have one?There was a time after the war when I wondered if all the Sable and Sublime were given mates, and perhaps there was a part of me that wondered what and whom the Goddess would choose for me, but…To be faced with something so big at a time like this, and so suddenly… I run my
ZADE.“Ada is still in a coma, but her injuries are healing well. I checked on her first. She’s hooked up to everything she needs and is being given the best of care. Atticus even organised for a nurse to be with her at all times to keep an eye on her,” Valerie says.It’s the following day, and it’s
We walk side by side and head down the winding stairs, only to spot Atticus waiting at the bottom of the stairs, pacing restlessly.“We’re not late, are we?” Valerie asks.“No, not at all,” he answers, glancing behind us before he turns and leads the way out of the front doors and takes a left, wher
“So where is she now?” Xander asks, and I glance at him.“Under my watch, until I get an answer regarding that attack,” I answer quietly as a woman from the stage crawls to the edge, giving Xander an up-close view of her breasts. He leans forward, placing a few hundred-dollar bills in her between he
~ ZION ~The women clad in risque lingerie twirl around the poles, their shimmering bodies illuminated by the purple and pink lighting of the strip club.I don’t spare them more than a glance, my eyes roaming instead over the seated men - searching for the one I’m here for. It doesn’t take long to f
I hear footsteps and wipe my eyes furiously and take a deep breath, refusing to let him see how I feel. He steps into the room, hands in pocket, carrying an arrogance as he looks me over.“I have questions.”“You kidnapped me!” I snarl.“You’re not a kid. Sit down.”“I don’t listen to-”The next thi
~ MILENA ~The bullet pierces through his chest and I gasp, my heart shattering as I watch the blood drip down his white shirt. It hurts, so fucking much. Not that I shot him, not that I know he could have dodged it if he had moved, but it’s the shock in those bright blue eyes when he realised I sho
Staring back at me in photo after photo is none other than the man I love, the man I have lived with for nearly a year. The man who killed my brother.One and the very same.“No… NO!” I scream, kicking the photos away from me. Is this a sick joke? I jump out of bed, rush to the bathroom and manage t
~ MILENA ~My eyes open, my vision blurry. I rub my eyes. I know I’m in a bed. It feels familiar, and for a moment I wonder if I’m back at my place but… my bed isn’t this large or comfortable.I sit up and look around, my heart hammering as realisation settles in. I know why it feels so… homely.Thi
“Excuse me, sir, she’ll be free to go tomorrow. But she will need to take some blood thinners and some pain relief tablets for the next two weeks.”I nod. I didn’t tell them I didn’t know her… after all, my questions are pending and she has the answers.This was not how I was expecting my night to e
~ ZION ~Not this time.I raise my gun, pressing it to her forehead roughly. She stumbles backwards trying to put space between us, but with her injured leg she’s not as slick and I almost reach out to steady her, then remind myself who she is.She is one of them.And she’s here for a reason.Do the
My heart skips a beat.He’s always been clever, but the conviction with how he said that one sentence… as if he was completely certain. But I’m not going to admit that.I chuckle humourlessly. “And why would you think I was the one who was behind that?”“You don’t wear a seatbelt, Milena. You were w
