-RAINA’S POV-

“I'll take you.” Valen offered generously, hampering me from going towards Eddison.

Turning to Valen, I trailed my fingers up to his neck, his jaw and pleaded, “Today was a lot for me. I'd like to unwind by myself, and we can meet up later. Plus, there's something I’ll ask you about.”

“Then take the twins with you,” Valen suggested, anything to keep me from Eddison.

Theo and Thaines’ eyes snapped up at us, awaiting my decision.

“I'll be in good hands.” I mistakenly solicited.

Taking my words literally, Valen’s lips pinched together in a hard line. His growl vibrated loudly when his dark, lethal eyes flicked at Eddison, recalling the way his hands were on me earlier.

“I meant that Eddison will ensure that I'm safe.” I corrected and put on my flirty smitten-kitten-mitten blues while my fingers danced down his jawline. “In the meantime, you could shower and take me on that overdue date.”

Valen’s tensed jaws relaxed with a smile that ricocheted a handsomeness overload that w

    -VAHEED'S POV-Stuck to the suspended web-like chains, I was like an agonizing bee that had lost its sting on a path to die a gruesome death.With my feet nine inches from the ground in the dark basement of clay bricks under the synagogue, my body hung off the wall in a silver web. Silver chains could not restrict me and this basement was not meant to be a torturing chamber.Therefore, the one called Dymian bound me to a network of thorny, powerful chains that could cut through the bone. My movements triggered Seff, who was my jail keeper, and he liked to use my chest as his dart board for his dry ice daggers. The wounds and gashes weren’t allowed to heal before he came back to re-open them.Bastards.My swollen black and blue eyes stared at the blackness in boredom. The sulfuric stench suffocated me to the point where my body was stuffed with it, feeling and looking half dead. My wrists and ankles were losing skin and becoming very raw. With a heavy stomach, I felt hollowed and drain

    -VAHEED’S POV-To punish me for my harsh words, Farrah groped my crotch. Her garnet eyes were slitted like a cat’s as I stared down into them. “Even dogs know how to be obedient and behave better than you.”Besides all my wrath and shock, there was a sparkle of awe. My wolf, Seidon, howled with joy.“Umph! Fuck!” I stifled a groan by biting my lower lip and shutting my eyes as pleasure washed me. Her vulgar touch was so stimulating.Intently, her fixated orbs glinted with mischief and delight that she had this power over my body. To her, I was an appealing object to play with when the others were out.Panting heavily, my groans resounded in the room. Brows drawn tight together, I fought against the pleasure. My skin crawled, itching hot with sparks as her hand cupped down my crotch.Her white eyebrows lowered and pulled closer together with interest. It displeased her that I was turning down her advancement. "It seems that you can’t handle the pleasure I give you."“Go to hell.” I bit

    -VALEN'S POV-“Baby that dress. Damn!” I remained unmoved, letting my eyes roam over Raina’s stunning body. It was a sight that stole the air from my lungs.I came to pick her up for our date. She was in her bedroom. She was very much ready to go in a sleeveless, black, heavy ribbed mini-dress with a high neck, and a golden chain that laced up the right side, extending from the hem all the way up and over the round mount of her ample breast, leaving peeks of bare skin to insinuate that she had no underwear on.“I got this pretty little number for you.” She twirled, slowly allowing me to feast on her angelic beauty.Certain parts of me stiffened as I soaked in the friction of her movements in that dress and the way her scent intensified.My mind seemed to be running a hundred miles an hour and my chest heaved with heavy breaths, dumbfounded at this sexy knockout that was all mine.The dress hugged her curves and clung to her body in all the right places, causing me to clear my throat a

    -VALEN'S POV-Raina frowned. “Poor Jakub was scared out of his boots after Benji force-marked him this morning. By the time Devin tore Benji off Jakub, he was bleeding out. Come on, Valen. Jakub was in the hospital being treated, and then he went to hide from Benji’s wolf, which had gotten out of control. Even Dad vouched for how traumatized Jakub was. What more do you want?”I wanted to open his skull because my gut hinted that there must be a link between him and Jiya.“Theo is interrogating him.” I assigned him to do it because Jakub would probably die during Thaines’ torturous session. “We’ll know more in the morning.”Raina thinned her lips and sighed. She licked them and a jolt of desire ran straight to my toes. I want to suck on her like I have pacifier syndrome. Instead, we continued dancing.I cleared my throat knowing we were about to tread on a touchy topic. “Raina, why didn’t you tell me that you thought you couldn’t have kids?”Her fingers and feet stilled, bringing our s

That’s why she wore that dress. She was probably praying for me to rip it off her the moment I entered her bedroom. She’s so naughty and she likes it rough."Let him take me. Take me any way he wants." Desire filled her electric blue eyes. She smirked and slipped her arms around me, closing all gaps between us. "I want everything tonight.”“Do you know what Zeus wants to do to you?” I was so rapt with the manic lust sparkling in her eyes. My hands itched to be all over her body, making her go crazy for me. “You might not be able to walk in the morning.”Her breath hitched and her cheeks flushed. Without answering, she pulled my head down and crashed her lips on mine.The kiss was fast and demanding, using her tongue and li

    -RAINA'S POV-It was day two abroad the yacht and my mind was flooded with happy memories. I opened the door to the master cabin and Valen was sitting on the bed, leaning up against the headboard, reviewing reports on his phone.As usual, he was bare-chested, only wearing charcoal lounge shorts. My eyes soaked in his carved abdomen and chest to note the tension rippling across his impressive muscles, making me worry. He should take a break."Hey baby," he said, not looking up from his phone. "I’m almost done.""Yeah," I returned, knowing better.We just had breakfast and I washed the dishes while he retreated to the bedroom. He wanted to reply to his many messages and check up on Alpha Camp.When we came here for our date, I wasn’t expecting to spend more than one night. Apparently, Venus had prepared an overnight bag for me and sent it with the ship’s staff. They came once a day to prepare our meals and tidy up.I wasn’t disappointed or anything. Spending time with Valen was well-nee

    -RAINA’S POV-I blushed at his hungry expression and slowly licked my lips before moving up to straddle Valen’s lap. He reached up and raked his hands through my hair, sending the cool tresses cascading across my back.His rough hands slid down my back from my shoulders to settle on my hips as he pulled me closer."I should miss more showers," he teased, cracking a taunting smile.A quiet laugh fell from my lips. “Well, not too many,” I whispered as his lips captured mine.My hands slid up his bare chest before I wrapped my arms around his neck, deepening our kiss. His lips were magical, waking a fire, deep in my core as our tongues twined.Electric warmth burst inside my body, originating in my chest and rippling into my limbs and fingertips.His arms encircled me, crushing my breasts against his chest as he dominated our kiss. His hunger and desire flood back through the bond, emboldening my advances. I ground my hips slowly against his."Goddess, Raina,'' he groaned, throwing his h

I almost came to tell you to keep it down.”“I wish you did,” I sneered, “I could have strangled you sooner.”Mercedes just saw me dribbling my ass on Valen’s cock! Did she have a recording device with her to capture and release the footage? Or was watching us just some sick kink of hers?“When they said you were human, I had to see it for myself.” She let out a small, disdainful laugh.“Get out, Mercedes. I'm getting sick of your nonsense,” Valen interjected. His handsome face was screwed up into a scowl, positively furious.“Yeah. Stop being creepy and give up your man-stealing hobby.” I snidely remarked and glared at Valen, pulling at the sheet to cover my naked body. Unease poole

    RAINA’S POV-Goddess, I truly hoped I was wrong, but where the hell were they? Plus, it would be better to be there with Valen when he found them, or all hell would break loose.The rest of the day went by quietly. Mom and Dad went off to their meeting with Alpha Vance which ended before dinner. It was a somber event at the pack house with none of the usual light-hearted conversations, just small strategic talk and planning, heightening security, and so forth.Gamma Blayne was sending the elites in deep to help pinpoint the enemy's location. The warrior’s role was more to defend and support where they could block any retreat and aid if they could.Worry scraped on my heart. This wasn't cops and robbers and the bad guy would get jail time; this was life and death.Dad was supposed to flank in from the west and attack with Valen, who would be coming in from the southeast. Their plan sounds solid, but that’s if Valen returned safely. Other than that, something was bothering me, but I hav

    VALEN’S POV-“You think you can threaten me.” I blasted, pumping a rigid fist at him as the vermillion red in my eyes marinated in resentment. “You think Selene can save you from me? Never see Raina, my mate, again in any lifetime, get it?”“I will, and I shall,” Gustav challenged."Shut the fuck up," I boomed with such immense power that the temple shivered, and foggy dust shot backwards.At my fastest speed, my feet thrust from the ground and I darted at him, too quick for him to dodge the clasp of my hand clutching his neck. I hoisted him off the ground by his throat, letting his feet dangle as they desperately searched for solid ground, while mine took root on the floor."You feeling tough now?" I growled with hatred in my voice.The Worgen extended his claws and sank them into my arm, piercing them deep until they hit the bone and my blood trickled out, splattering the floor. Because of that, I hurled him to the ground. He coughed and gasped for air, while struggling to stand up.

    -VALEN’S POV-“Gustav!” I roared, nakedly stomping through the circular pillars with Zuzu perched on my right shoulder. “Get out here!”Chasing him brought me to Pindus in Greece at the Temple of Zannos. It was an albescent-white, Doric-styled, pentagon-shaped building that lacked care and was covered with limestone dust. On the walls were featured engravings of weapons and symbols that I also recognized were identical to the ones that were inscribed on the Worgens' foreheads.“No need to be so loud, Alpha Prince.” Gustav groused with his back to me. The hem of his cream trench coat carpeted the ground, right next to his enormous sword. “Even the gods can hear you shouting.”Up ahead in the dusty grand hall, he was down on one knee with his white head bowed to the light blue, marble, fifty-foot statue of Selene. She was gracefully sitting on a crescent moon with a beige wolf around her shoulders as she glanced down at the queen of the night flower she was holding up in her left hand. T

    -VALEN’S POV-“Holy fuck.” I panted out as the sweet sensations rocked me.Her pouty candy-pink lips began moving up and down my length. She started bobbing her head back and forth. My hand coiled a large bunch of burgundy strands on the top of her head, helping her with the pace.“Deep breaths—yeah, take it.” My lips parted, and I blew out invisible puffs of air.The pleasure was overwhelming, almost making me forget what we were fighting about before. She picked up the pace, fisting the bottom of my shaft with one hand while she sucked the top and repeated.“So good, baby,” I remarked huskily. “Show me how badly you want it.”Already my balls were tensing up and stars exploded behind my eyelids as my orgasm drew near. She hummed around my dick, licking it good as I drew it out of her mouth.I grunted and thrust my hip forward with more force this time, hitting the back of my throat. Her pretty mouth was driving me nuts. The way her tongue moved against the ridges was giving me a whi

    -RAINA’S POV-Yellow flags billowed in my head as the mood shifted sourly. Hot, angry puffs of air expelled from Valen’s nostrils. His blazing emeralds locked with my subtle blues.“Hold on a sec.” I scrambled to the edge of the bed and sat up with a frown. “That’s not what I’m saying.”“Really, Raina?” Valen asked me with hidden anger in his voice. “That crab-louse took Vaheed, and you aren’t in a hurry to get my brother back, especially since that’s the only way for us to find out what happened to Devin.”“I know that,” I muttered in a casual tone, licking my dry lips.“Vaheed isn’t with us because of him.” Valen’s voice rose, and he raked back his black hair with a frustrated hand. He turned and walked towards the glass doors to the balcony, aggressively parted the green drapes, and looked out into the gray sky.“I want to summon Gustav, but I don’t know how,” I expressed, feeling crappy that he had a valid point. “Plus you have that murderous gleam that you are going to kill him w

    -RAINA’S POV-Brewing with optimism, I watched in awe as the lavender glow disbursed, engulfing Devin's body in a gentle aura of shimmering energy. Like an X-ray, it lit up his skeleton, making it visibly orange with red veins.It was as if the very essence of magic itself was sieving through him, whirling new life into his motionless form. His body was healing, closing the gruesome wound on his chest and reconnecting the superior vena cava."Hang in there, Duke. Your boy is strong. He can make it." Alpha Vance tried to provide some solace.Uncle Duke began pacing while ruffling a hand through his blonde hair. “Come on Smithson, the moon can’t have you today.”Valen's expression was one of intense concentration. His features were set in determination as he exerted more streams of his magic into Devin.For a moment, time seemed to stand still as we held our collective breath, waiting with bated anticipation for any sign of change.And then, it happened.A faint ripple sifted through De

Unlike the sunset that spread a rainbow flame upon the evening's sky.On a magically conjured table floating ahead of us, courtesy of Valen, Devin's massacred body laid supine.The journey from the yacht to Petroside Grove felt longer than ever before, and Zeus’ sprints echoed with emptiness, silently knowing that things would be different now.As we approached the witch’s cottage, the scene on the off-white porch was one of heartbreak and despair. Miriam, Marlena, Alpha Vance, Uncle Duke, Luna Sianna, and Keisha stood waiting. Their faces were etched with grief as they watched us draw near.Zeus lowered his large, black, furry body so that I jumped from his back, and then Valen shifted. Keisha immediately rushed towards Devin. My heart ached for Keisha as I watched her crumble. With haste, Uncle Duke wrapped his arms around her waist to keep her off the ground."I'm so sorry," I whispered to them

He was not my mate, so my body rebelled, seething at being manhandled.Vaheed’s desperate gaze locked on mine, begging me to side with him. “I’m going to kill him, Raina. Tell whitey to leave. We don't want his kind here.”“If you back off, Vaheed, so will he,” I rasped out, which made him livid. His harlequin greens flickered like black coals about to catch fire.Gustav lifted his chin in opposition. “I would not be here if she was not in danger.”Vaheed grinned deviously. “A Worgen….protecting a human? Don't make me laugh. I know all about you and your horde.”“Yes, you do.” I highlighted, “You have a lot of information that we need to make better preparations against them. I suggest we get you to your Mom's for a check-up, and then we'll have a meeting to discuss all that you can tell us

    -RAINA’S POV-“Gustav,” I breathed out, still very skeptical of his presence.This pivotal moment would test the guardian bond. With bated breath, I stared at his hand, contemplating taking it. He noticed the alarm on my face and put both of his hands up in a surrender pose.“I mean you no harm, Kókkino,” he said, cocking his head, slightly concerned.Ruffling and a dull creak of dry hinges sounded across the room. My eyes found Vaheed pinned to the decorative, backlit stone wall feature.Grunting with lips pulled over his teeth, his hands gripped and wrested against the formidable, six-foot, double-bladed sword that threatened to slash him in halves. One tip of its broad jagged blade screeched against the floorboard.Panicking, I glanced back at Gustav, in a terrified voice, “Do not kill him.”“He's dangerous.” Gustav furrowed his brows, confused as to why I'd want to spare him, but he relented with an exhalation.
