~ Kelsie ~
I lay in Cain’s arms, the quilt on my bed pulled up to my chin, just staring at him.
He’d rolled onto his back, but pulled me up against his side while we both caught our breaths. And for a moment it just struck me how beautiful this was. I was laying next to my husband, my mate, completely naked, a little sweaty, and exhausted… but in the best way.
Then he shifted his weight and his mark caught my eye. I pushed up on my elbow, staring down at it, gaping, and tracing the lines with my fingers.
Had it… gro

~ Kelsie ~“Cain, what—”“Tell me anytime you see something, or sense something, even if you aren’t sure,” he murmured, kissing the corner of my jaw. “That gift is real. It reveals things to you to help me. So…”“You think he’s coming for you? Personally? Like now?!”To my relief, Cain shook his head. “Seers see intent—not always a specific future. It’s possible, of course. But I doubt it. The Alpha doesn’t do his own dirty work. If it was Felix, he wouldn’t be standing outside my door himself. He’d send a team, instructed in what to do, who would then report back. There’s only very rare situations where an Alph

SOUNDTRACK: “Fangs” by Zayde Wolf*****~ Cain ~I teetered on the edge of very real violence, my wolf hearing nothing but the implied threat in the man’s tone—and sensing the male’s desire to remove my precious mate from me. And yet, at the same time, my human male rationalizing, understanding, empathizing with this man who stood beneath me, glowering at me like I’d kidnapped his daughter. And I got it. Appreciated that, even in his humanity, he was not weak. He didn’t back away—even though he had to instinctively sense my strength.“No. Dad—” Kelsie gasped.But her father took one step forward and snarled, “Now.”

~ Cain ~‘Shit, Cain. This is bad. They’re insisting that they’re going to talk to the Dean on Monday. Dad’s saying we’re going to apply for an annulment and—’Standing in the dining area of the kitchen, staring out the window towards her house, I cursed and slammed an open palm into the back of the dining chair, sending it spinning off its feet to smack against the tiles, then slide across the space and under the kitchen island before it slammed into the base of the cupboards there.I felt my eyes shift and my skin ripple. It had taken half an hour to shove my wolf away and now I had to keep a grip on myself. I couldn’t afford to lose control and make this worse.

~ Kelsie ~Through the bond I could feel the tension in Cain even before my father took off out of the house. When my mother tried to hold me back, and I screamed at him through the bond not to hurt my father, when I finally got loose from my mother’s desperate grip and ran after my father, who was disappearing into Cain’s house just as I took a running leap off our front porch and sprinted across the yard, I was terrified I was going to be too late.I could feel his wolf fighting to be released, feel him warring with himself and it made my feet fly.I hurdled the low fence between our driveways, then pounded up his path, almost crying when I heard my father threatening him.“K

~ Kelsie ~It took me an hour of soothing Cain, worrying about my parents, looping thoughts about the future to realize what that small niggle was at the back of my mind. And once I did, it wouldn’t leave me alone. But Cain was in pieces, so I also couldn’t just walk away.He had curled himself around me when my parents left, and it took a long time to coax him back out. I could feel him arguing with his wolf, and knew that it was my father’s life that would hang in the balance if he lost that fight, so I stayed quiet and just stroked him, sending reassurance and encouragement whenever it felt like the right time, but otherwise leaving him alone.I was growing tenser and tenser, though.My parents were good people. But they were very protective, and they

SOUNDTRACK: “To the Wolves,” by Stitched Up Heart and Escape the Fate. ***** ~ Kelsie ~ Sucking in a shocked breath, I screamed for Cain out loud and through the bond, my voice, piercing and high, penetrating the dark like a laser. I felt him answer more than heard it. But the first thing I saw was the front door of my house open and my father rush out, wild-eyed, grabbing at the door frame to launch himself out of the house—his eyes going even wider as he caught sight of the animal just feet from me. “Kelsie! What—” “Dad, don’t move!” I hissed, throwing my hands up to stop him. I heard a strange, eerie voice then, that said only two words.

~ Cain ~The strange wolf tucked its tail and ran.At first, instinct kicked in. I followed it over the fence, gaining an inch with each stride, straining, growling, determined to take this fucker out for threatening my mate—but then Kelsie reached for me through the link, pleading with me not to let myself get hurt, and an uneasy weight settled in my chest.Then, without slowing or turning, the strange wolf scratched at my mind which was such a shock I almost missed a step.I opened a sliver of my mind to him, locking myself down so I wouldn’t reveal even the smallest information about Kelsie or our lives together.‘Why a weak human? You could have been so much more,’

~ Kelsie ~I sucked in a breath and my father’s grip on my elbow tightened. “What is it?” he asked, his voice heavy with dread.“You… I know this is crazy Dad, but I need you to trust me. Cain can talk in my head. He’s coming, and he’s saying that more wolves are coming. You have to leave. Both of you—you have to get out of here. They don’t care about you, as long as you don’t try to stand between them and me—’“Kelsie, we are not leaving you alone to—”“I won’t be alone! Cain is going to protect me—you saw that! You saw what he is! I’m his mate, Mom. I know this is…

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
My Alpha Teacher's Pet 96. The Last Betrayal – Part 3
~ 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
My Alpha Teacher's Pet 95. The Last Betrayal – Part 2
~ 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

~ Cain ~‘Kelsie, get back!’ I screamed in the link as I leaped into my wolf to meet an attack for the second time in a handful of hours.There was a sick pit in my stomach, something that told me I would hate remembering this day. 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!”
My Alpha Teacher's Pet 92. A Brother's Love
~ Cain ~“Tell me,” I growled, low and hard. “Tell me how that day went down when I ended up betrayed by my mate and my brother.” I seared him with my eyes, let him see and feel my fury.But although he tensed, Felix only sighed.“I had already been… enticed,” he admitted.I felt sick. 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
