~ Kelsie ~

I was standing outside Cain’s house, on the porch, knocking frantically. He didn’t know we were going to fall in love. He didn’t know we were going to bond. And he wouldn’t open the door.

The hair on the back of my neck stood up, and I whirled around because I could feel eyes watching me. Menacing eyes. Eyes that belonged to someone I couldn’t see, but who meant me harm.

“Cain, please,” I breathed, knowing he could still hear me through the door. “You have to let me in, please.”

A shadow moved in the trees between the house and the door and a sick pit opened in my stomach.

It was broad daylight, but there was no one around. The sprinklers were on and the wate

    ~ Cain ~Kelsie slipped back into sleep pretty quickly, which was a relief. But there was no way I was going to rest soon. My whole body hummed with tension, and my wolf was on alert.Ears pricked. Nostrils flaring. Body still.I couldn’t scent it, but something was out there.Or actually, someone.Felix.Every hair on my body stood up at the thought. My hackles rose and the urge was there to leap out of bed, shift, and hunt the night for him. But I wrestled that instinct back.I knew there was no way he would have come himself

    ~ Cain ~Kelsie made breakfast while I called in sick to work, using the gruff sound of my sleep-deprived, and sex-addled voice to give authenticity to the outright lie that I just wasn’t feeling well.Then I had to spend an hour posting assignments and lecture notes so that morning’s students wouldn’t be disadvantaged.Guilt hovered in my chest, but I knew I couldn’t avoid it. I could barely stand to be in a different room from Kelsie right now. The idea of being thirty minutes away sent me into a cold sweat.As I clicked through the student website portal and made certain everything was there, my movements were too-fast and jagged.I remembered the f

    SOUNDTRACK: “Curiosity” by Bryce Savage.*****~ Kelsie ~Cain was my bath seat and it was hot as hell.I couldn’t see him, but leaning back against his chest and feeling that iron strength against my back, staring at his long muscular thighs on either side of me, watching his skin pebble when I dragged my fingers up and down his legs… god I wanted him.I had been teasing him, but I wasn’t playing when I said I’d persuade him. I’d never felt so much sheer desire before in my life. It was like every time we had sex it just made me want him more.

    ~ Cain ~The water rippled and splashed as I pulled Kelsie back onto me and she gave a gorgeous little cry. Then she settled into my lap and gave a happy little hum that lit a whole new bonfire in my chest.“That feels different,” she whispered, rocking her hips experimentally, which only threw me further into the flames.“If it doesn’t work for you, you can turn around, or—”“No, no. I like it,” she said with a gulp.I smiled at her back, wishing I could see her face, but enjoying watching her move and test herself, her limits.Still holding her hips, I let myself sit back a little again to give her more room.

    ~ Kelsie ~Wednesday was hard. After two days consumed in each other, we decided on a middle ground for Wednesday. I skipped class because I could follow them online and Cain was worried that if he saw me with other guys the first time we were apart, he’d struggle to control his aggression.So he went to work and I stayed home.I’d spent so much time soothing and reassuring him before he left that I didn’t really consider how it was going to affect me.I felt anxious at the idea of being apart from him, but I really hadn’t understood the gaping hole that separation would open in my chest.It was stunning and frightening how suddenly my feelings shifted

    ~ Kelsie ~My stomach sank at the same time anger burned in my veins.“What the fuck are you doing here? You aren’t welcome here anymore, Daniel,” I muttered. I started to close the door again but Daniel slapped a hand to it, leaning his weight into it.“Please, Kelsie. I want to apologize.” His brows were pinched together. He looked haggard and tired and pathetic. And I didn’t care.I set my jaw and shook my head.“Kelsie, please—”“You called the cops on me!”“I was afraid you were going to get hurt. That thing was dangerous—”

    ~ Kelsie ~At the sound of Cain’s voice, Daniel whipped around. Apparently his first instinct was to hold up his hands like Cain had a gun trained on him, because suddenly both hands were high and he was leaning back. He started stammering excuses, but then he trailed off and his eyes went even wider. He straightened and his hands slowly lowered.“Wait… aren’t you the new Professor at Chandler?” he asked in a high voice.Shit. I forgot that he'd seen Cain in the hallways the other day when I was on my way to class.Cain didn’t answer immediately. There was a jolt through the bond. Not fear, exactly. But deep caution.

    ~ Cain ~Being so close to Kelsie without touching her had been hell. There would be a lot of touching when I got back to her.A lot.All the touching.Every kind—‘Cain! Stop! This is hard enough as it is!’I hadn’t realized I was forming pictures in my mind of the two of us together, turning them, showing them to her, showering her in images of us naked and entwined and…My wolf howled and I felt Kelsie jolt with need for me.For me!I twitched, the urge to run straight to her so acute

And the pack… whatever had happened between all of us was a miracle. Because suddenly, Kelsie could hear all of them clearly, and they could feel her—sense her love, her strength, and her heart.And they were starting to love her as much as I did.Well, almost.For the past hour we had huddled together on a log next to the bonfire, a thick blanket over our legs. But then Kelsie leaned into my ear and whispered, “I need to go to the bathroom. And I’m going to have to put pants on, there is just too m

So I didn’t expect the ceremony to have any real impact, except to make me and my mother cry.But the moment the wolves closed in around us, it was like the air began to crackle.And then, when Cain started the words, goosebumps trickled down my spine.He swallowed hard, his voice deep and husky—and echoed a second time in the pack link.“See here my will that is bowed to yours,” he started quietly. “I eat my pri

    SOUNDTRACK: “Every Part of Me” by BASHAM. ***** ~ Cain ~ Staring at Kelsie as she looked up at her Dad—whose face was a picture of relief and pride—made my heart begin to beat even harder. I didn’t know where she and her mother had found such a gown, but she looked stunning in it. It looked like the entire thing had been knitted—like a thick, luxurious cableknit sweater, yet somehow it hugged every curve of her body from the high turtleneck, all the way down to her hips where it flared and hung in heavy gathers—but when she moved, the fabric clung to her legs beneath the skirt as well, revealing every curve and… I had to clear my throat and remind myself we had an audience as Kelsie reached up to hug her father, and the pack began to gather

I wasn’t so sure. I stood at one end of the small clearing near our packhouse, arms folded and my sweater-sleeves pulled up to my forearms because that was how Kelsie liked them. My breath made a cloud in the winter air, b

    ~ Kelsie ~I was stunned when Felix became human again. Then hope rose in my chest, because he was clearly weak and struggling. Bleeding and panting, staring at Cain and struggling to speak.A little piece of me crumbled. He looked so shaky and broken. I wondered if he would submit and Cain would let him live. I could feel my mate’s conflicting emotions, that he didn’t relish killing his brother. But the betrayal…The fiercest emotion burning in Cain was rage—at the betrayal.I knew this wasn’t easy on him.I swayed closer, wanting to go to him, but knowing I couldn’t intervene while they were still technically fighting.All the wolves stared at them, eyes cold a

    ~ Cain ~Had I been fighting another wolf who didn’t know me so well, this was the moment to engage, to rush and take their neck high and bear down, flip the dog on his back and close on his throat if he didn’t submit.But Felix would be expecting that. And sure enough, in the blink where he realized there was no danger behind him and returned his full attention to me, he switched—rushing his longer body and heavier weight forward, on the attack, to make me hesitate.I didn’t even think, just let my instincts take over and feinted, first to one side, then the other, waiting for the third switch and praying Felix would instinctively anticipate it.And he did.A howl of victory started in my head as Felix shifted h

But there wasn’t time to think about it or give in to regret.I had a wolf to kill.I didn’t hesitate.As Felix raised his hackles to make himself look as big—and be as difficult to grip—as possible, I was already flying through the air towards him, ready to take the throat of my own brother.But for the second time in a few hours, time slowed, as if I moved through thick mud and saw ever

    ~ Cain ~Shaking with the intensity I turned to Lauren. “You hated me that much?”“I never hated you,” she breathed, but she didn’t meet my eyes. “I just… I wanted to have what you had. And… Felix…” she trailed off. I waited, but then my patience snapped.“Felix, what?!” I roared.Many of the wolves flinched, including Lauren, whose head dropped even lower. She clutched her hands in her lap.“Felix admired me. He needed me. He wanted me. You… you didn’t.”“Didn’t need you?” Are you fucking kidding, Lauren?! You were my mate!”

But Felix went on, relentless.“She’d promised me that she’d raise me. That I would become Alpha over the others, except her. She’d promised me that I would have her all to myself. I just had to make you believe that it was me who was running the whole coup. She didn’t think… she didn’t think she could fool you if you had a chance to actual
