Grace stepped over to the black leather bag and unzipped the middle section. She pulled out a light blue hospital gown with tiny white flowers. Open in the back, it was easy to slide the garment over Hycinth's arms. I gently lifted Hycinth's shoulders, so Grace could tie the back together.

Now that Hycinth was covered, I needed clothes. I had no intention of asking Ever to step away from his guard over Dagger and the other prisoners, so I grunted to Samuel through the mind link, "Samuel, bring me clothes."

Less than thirty seconds later, Samuel jogged out of the house, carrying black pants, a matching shirt and boots along with underwear and socks.

As soon as I was dressed, I stepped to Hycinth's side and lifted her into my arms. As I took a step toward the house, Grace stopped me. "Leander, do you think it's a good idea to bring her inside?"

I ground my teeth together, my jaw clicking. Taking Hycinth back inside that hellhole was the last thing I wanted, but I had no choice.

    My Wolf came to my eyes, looking for any sign of untruth in the biker's features.Tommy sucked in a sharp breath but didn't move or back down.My Wolf liked his fighting spirit.Tommy continued carefully. "What happened here today stays with me, Leroy and Frank, alone. No one else. Not even our families. We already understand the ramifications if we don't. My boys and I have stayed alive this long because we live by a motto of unquestionable discretion when necessary."I turned my attention to Frank. Tension ran through his body, but the male held my gaze without flinching. "We've already killed for you," he pointed out, "and we ain't stupid."Frank didn't bother using a lot of unnecessary words. Straight to the point. I liked that. But could I trust them?I turned toward Leroy.Again, there was no hint of deception in his countenance. He wiped blood from his chin with the back of his hand.

    "Lift him to his knees so I can see his face," I ordered.Samuel planted a booted foot against Dagger's butt and gripped his shoulders from behind, jerking his upper body off the floor. He held him in place while I leaned down again to one knee so that Dagger and I were eye to eye. "Ready to be a good boy? How far you're willing to go to secure your freedom this time?"He whimpered and dropped his head.I grabbed his jaw and squeezed, lifting his head at the same time. He whined at the force I was using. Letting my Wolf's strength rise into the palm of my hand, I constricted my grip even tighter until the bones in his jaw snapped, dislocating it.Dagger screamed but the sound gurgled off when I placed my other hand over his mouth. "Pay attention. I have some questions. Now, since you have no dick, I know it wasn't your cock, so tell me which one of these wolves raped my mate."Sweat poured off of his body as saliva dripped out of his mouth. He tried to speak but wasn't able to make an

    "Motherfuckers!" I cursed furiously.My Wolf howled his rage, ears laid back flat, his paws pounding the ground. He itched to get out but I held him back.I hated every moment but let the images play out. I needed to see for myself what happened.Before the second male could finish, Dagger jerked him away.Stumbling back, the Wolf muttered, "Hey man! What the fuck?"Hycinth hung limp and unmoving, her body swaying from the restraints."We're out of time," Dagger hissed. He turned toward the stairs. "Get her down and bring her upstairs. Sydney will be here in a few minutes."I shook my head, clearing my mind. That was enough for now. Hycinth's memories correlated that I had the correct two wolves who had violated my mate in the worst manner possible.And now they were going to pay....Lifting my head, I made eye contact with Ever. My thoughts filtered to him, "Lube."He nodded, leaned down to the bag at his feet and extracted a bottle of lubricant. He tossed it to me.I snatched it fro

    Leander"How many?" I snarled.There was a beat of silence. And then Ryan responded, his response colored with confusion, "So far... only three."Three? Hardly a task force of substance. What were they up to now?"Are you sure?" I demanded. And then added, "Can you identify their rank?""Yeah," he replied shortly, his voice constricted with tension."Their Alpha, the Beta and the Delta."Nightshade's three highest ranking wolves?I spun my head around to strategically assess the current situation in the room. We held the upper hand. All of the enemy wolves were restrained in silver zipties. But who knew how long that would last now that new wolves were in play? I needed to thin the herd-remove the potential for these wolves to reengage in the fight against us. "Eliminate the Nightshade wolves now!" I ordered.There was no hesitation. Instantly, razor-sharp claws elongated and every throat was ripped out. Blood poured onto the dingy carpet.I strode toward the door. "Ever. Oliver. Foll

  • Mated To The Cold Hearted Alpha   So frail and weak

    LEANDER'S POVTwo days had passed since we returned to the cottage, the den where Hycinth and I had mated, and conceived the tiny pup in her belly. And during that time, Hycinth had shown physical signs of improvement. Harsh purplish, crimson and black welts all over her body had turned to soft shades of green and yellow. The swelling in both eyes had reduced. And the fractures Grace found in Hycinth's lower spine, no doubt caused by a kick from one of those bastards considering the massive boot shaped bruise on her skin, had knitted back together.But Hycinth remained unconscious. And there was no movement from the vulnerable pup or sign from her Wolf.My heart clenched in my chest as I stared at her sleeping form. She looked so frail and weak. Restless, her little brows wrinkled and pinched tight. Sporadic breaths caused her chest to catch, lost to the torment inside her head. Lifting on my elbow next to her, I pressed my lips to her cheek and caressed her arm with my fingertips. "S

    "They won't stay long, son," my father soothed. The irises of his Wolf shown in his eyes, the beast directing communicating comfort to mine. There was also a promise of violent protection behind his fierce stare. No question of loyalty in his rigid stance. At any cost, the beast would stand by his son to protect what was ours.His words helped. My Wolf still didn't like the presence of so many males, but he trusted our father Wolf. His anxiety eased a little."We know you don't want to be gone for long," Ever explained quietly as I crossed to the far side of the deck where they stood, "so we wanted to cover as many topics as possible to avoid multiple absences from your mate."I understood they needed to talk but first I needed an explanation from Grace. I turned to her and spoke through gritted teeth, "Now tell me what is going on. What couldn't you say in front of Hycinth?""Leander, you already know Hycinth should have woken up by now," Grace began, her voice low.She spoke the obv

    "Are we done here?" I asked, impatient to get back to Hycinth."Wait. There is another thing.." Ever hesitated."What now?" A muscle in my jaw twitched.Asher came to stand beside him.Ever's voice deepened, "It's the...pack. I get why you didn't tell them the reasons Hycinth left, but she's back now, and they still don't know what's going on. Anxiety...is running high."I turned on them, a growl ripping from my throat, "No, I didn't share all the intimate details of my personal devastation with the pack. I'm their fucking Alpha. I don't owe them sorid details. All they needed to know was that Hycinth was gone and now she's back." It hadn't occurred to me that I might get pushback from the pack. Maybe I should have.But worse, I never anticipated Ever and Asher to stand against me the way they were now. "If either of you have shit to say about the matter of Hycinth returning, don't fucking hide it. Let's get this out right here and now."Pain washed over Ever's expression. His voice w

"Leander, it's important that we start Hycinth's treatment as quickly as possible, and you may not want another male on hand." Her eyes flickered to Luca for a brief second before returning to me.Luca's face fell. He immediately stepped back, his shoulders hunching. "Of course. I can wait to see her another time.""It shouldn't take more than twenty minutes," Grace reassured him.Luca's stricken expression shifted back to hopefulness. He waited for my response."As long as Hycinth remains stable through the process, I see no reason to delay your visit any longer." In my heart, I was hoping Luca's presence might make a difference. As long as my Wolf remained calm, I wanted him to see her as soon as possible. "Wait here. I'll let you know when she's ready.""Yes...of course," Luca agreed, sinking do

Brows furrowing closer with each sweep of her confused gaze, Hycinth abruptly clutched her rounded abdomen protectively and sank as far away into the bed as she could.Instantly, I delved into her mental state, dreading what I would find.FearApprehensionMistrustMy heart dropped.Certainly not the happy reunion I had foolishly hoped for. Hycinth sucked in a harsh breath, unable to keepup with her continuously accelerating heartbeat.She blinked back tears.Without even a word to coordinate their identical reactions, Ever, Asher and Milo all stepped forward and lifted their mates. "Time to go," Ever spoke gruffly. Expression stricken, Gwen reached toward Hycinth, her mouth opening but no sound came out as Ever c

    Glancing over, I found Gwen's expression radiating with happiness, tears streaming down her face.Confused by both of their responses and fearful of the unknown, Ever asked urgently, "What...what's happening?"Eyes wide, Gwen whispered, "It's a mate bond.""What?" Ever asked blankly while I echoed with my own shocked, "What the hell?""It feels like the first time I saw you," she giggled softly.Ever shook his head. "But that's not possible.""I don't know how to explain it. It just feels that way."I had no idea what Gwen had actually felt, but I agreed with Ever. I'd never heard of such a thing before.Refocusing on Hycinth, Gwen gently smoothed a strand of hair out of her face and tucked it behind her ear.After a long moment, Ever murmured, "I think we should bring Willow in." "Ooh, that's a good idea," Gwen instantly agreed and looked up at me expectantly.I held a hand up. "Wait. I don't know about that. Yes, Hycinth seemed to react well, but what if more people becomes too much

    Ever squeezed my shoulder."I intend to stay by her side and take care of her until she's awake."Quiet agreement was murmured as they nodded their heads. Eagerness to help was transparent on their faces.From the corner of my eye, I saw Gwen carefully make her way through the crowd toward me. Once she reached my side, her little chin came up, fierce determination in her expression. "Leander, let me help you care for her."I hesitated. "That's okay. I can handle it."Clearly unwilling to take no for an answer, she continued, "Leander, I know you love her but she is going to need more care than just you. Ever explained a little bit of what you're dealing with. I love her too. I knew there was no way she was aware of the full atrocities her parents had inflicted. She couldn't. Her innocence was too transparent and her sweetness of spirit. Nobody is that good of an actress. I am your Beta Female. Now, let me do my job."From my back, Ever murmured, "I think it's a good idea."Somewhat su

    Leander's povShort beams of moonlight descended from above, intermittent strokes of luminosity breaking through the dense forest canopy as we ran. We didn't need the light. Wolf vision provided striking clarity of the landscape in almost absolute darkness, but even without such a gift, we probably would have been able to successfully navigate the terrain blindfolded. Each of us knew these woods like the back of our hands.Within minutes, the dimness of the forest gave way, revealing a soft glow twenty feet ahead. Not much farther now. My gait slowed, legs feeling heavier with every step. I hated losing wolves. It never got any easier to say goodbye.Finally crossing the tree line, I stepped out into the clearing and stopped. The drums fell silent.To my right stood four unmistakable structures. Meticulously prepared, each fallen Wolf had been anointed with spices and dressed in noble tribal fare. Six feet off the ground, bodies cradled in suspense by an intricately woven labyrinth of

    Leander"No!" Hycinth's scream pierced the darkness.Instantly awake, every particle in my body felt like it had been lit on fire. "What is it, love? What's wrong?"Little fists pummeled my chest. Her frail body thrashed in the bed next to me. "Don't touch me!"Still snared by unconsciousness, it was clear the battle was in her mind.Primal instinct drove me forward. I had no intention of letting her fight this adversary alone. Without thought, I blew our partial mate bond. wide open and delved into her subconscious. For a moment, I was disoriented by the chaos in her head. Stark fear swirled amidst nightmare images-darkness stained with slashes of red, so much blood. No concern for her own welfare, but desperately fighting for the precious innocent she carried in her belly."It's okay, you're safe!" I whispered urgently while trying to contain her flailing limbs without hurting her.Torment all-consuming, she couldn't hear me. Continuing to fight her imaginary foe, she violently wres

    The cabin door opened just wide enough for Sydney to slip inside. Cool blue eyes flickering to take in the scene around her, Sydney naturally settled into the chair across the room and waited for me to speak.Not wanting to risk stressing Hycinth, I continued to use the mind link, "I need you to stay with her tomorrow night."Sydney nodded, no break in her stoic expression, ever diligent to her duties. But I knew her better than that. The slightest twitch of pain in her eyes didn't escape my attention, revealing her struggle just as all of us mourned such a heavy loss."I don't know how... I'm going to leave her, "I murmured, getting to the heart of the matter.It was Sydney's turn to read my expression, to hear all of the words I'd left unsaid, just as I knew she would. She couldn't repair my stress but immediately, the Delta in her began to plan, "For those hours, we could increase the Sentinels in number and tighten the perimeter around the cabin. Additionally, the bikers-""Bikers

    LEANDER'S POV"Leander," Grace's thoughts drifted through the pack mind link we shared. "Hycinth needs your attention."Instantly, I rose to my feet.Startled by my abrupt change in position, Ever lurched to his feet, chest puffed out, ready for a fight.I expected Ever's reaction, but what surprised me was Luca's similar response. Certainly lacking of any decent Alpha experience he could trust, betrayed by the one male he thought loved him the most, I wouldn't have begrudged Luca's reluctance to blindly follow another Alpha so quickly, especially me. But there was no hesitancy in his response as he stood ready, hands out, naturally aligning himself to Ever's body to provide me with optimal cover."Sorry," I muttered as I walked away toward the lakeside cabin. I hadn't meant to alarm them. No further words were necessary. I felt their heightened emotions calm.Breaching the entryway, I watched Sydney gently release Hycinth's hand, lean forward and place a barely-there kiss on her fore

    "I know," he replied, "and I'm sorry to put you through this again, but I need to know...what her body went through."I studied his expression.He explained softly, "I can't help her if I don't know.""Okay." I ran a hand roughly through my already disheveled hair as I pulled back images I never wanted to think about again. "From the glimpse I saw into her mind and confirmation from those in the room, I think only two penetrated her vaginally but her wounds indicate her bottom was also violated, probably with claws."Luca's brows went up. "You could see that...in her mind?""Yes," I ground out through my teeth. In my head, my Wolf snarled furiously at the memories. "Thankfully, it appeared Hycinth was unconscious, at least during the time those two bastards defiled her.""What else?""The bruises and wounds on her body were too many to count. She had several spinal breaks that we could feel, likely incurred from multiple kicks due to the massive boot prints left behind on her back, bu

    LeanderA sudden northeastern gust of wind rustled through the trees, causing several russet-colored leaves to lose their already tenuous hold on the branches above us and flutter to the ground. Autumn had settled in since Hycinth had left me. Three long months. More than half of her pregnancy. The thought was staggering.Ever's head came up, his astute gaze automatically scanning the horizon."But I don't think so," Luca murmured quietly."What do you mean?""After Oracle Memoree visited us and we finally knew the truth, in all of its ugly glory," he flinched, green eyes losing focus for a moment before continuing, "the plan was to contact you...figure a way to reach out as soon as I returned from our old pack. Hycinth wasn't in great shape...she didn't think you or the pack would want her back...but she wanted to try.""The pack?" I raised an eyebrow. "Why would Hycinth think the pack wouldn't want her back?"Luca's shoulders pulled back, his tone clearly communicating his personal
