"You're such a pervert ",he chuckles. "Just wait, brother, the minute you mark and mate her, you will be just as perverted as me. You will want her twenty-four seven. Take my word for it Jeremy you two will behave just as bad as us. "He grins and shakes his head at me. "I know," he sighs sadly.
Gunner pov I'm laying here staring at Molly when Rose wakes and gasps. "My rounds!"she whispers yells. "No flower, Doctor Frank wrote you out. Your way past exhaustion, "she tenses, seeing Jeremy by her side. She looks worried as her eyes scan the room. "My sister is still out there with tha

Molly pov I wake warm and comfortable, but my pillow is snoring. I crack my eyes open to see Gunner against me sleeping. My brother is holding his mate, and I watch her snuggle up to him. She is thin, I think, as I try to scoot away from Gunner. Emptying my bladder is on my mind. "No tiny doll s
"Tiny doll, calm down," Gunner whispers. "Fuck me that was hot cuss again baby",he kisses my mark. I giggle as he trails kisses to my lips, and I get lost in his touch and mouth. "Hey!"we pull apart at the loud voice. "Time for your meds, honey. Also, please try to control yourselves. This is a ho

"Tiny doll behave I'm so hard I will fuck you here and now. I don't care if they hear us. "I chuckle when her face goes red as she smacks my chest. "Gunner," she giggles. I kiss her lips, and she moans in my mouth. I hear a sniffle from the bathroom, but I don't pay much attention as Molly's littl
Grace pov Elena's expression shifted to reveal more of her concern now that Lucas was engaged with Alex and unlikely to pick up on adult conversation. "Not directly," she replied, her voice low enough that even werewolf hearing wouldn't carry it to the living room. "But we've intercepted communica
Grace pov The security rotation plan had been in effect for three weeks, the Matthews family moving between four different pack properties on an irregular schedule that made surveillance nearly impossible to maintain. I had adapted to the disruption with characteristic resilience, establishing por
Grace pov That's right," I confirmed, reaching to squeeze Lucas's small hand. "And we're going to have a special adventure, staying in different pack houses for a little while. Like a vacation, but we'll still do all our regular activities—preschool, library visits, everything that's important to
"Temporary relocation would be safest," Elena suggested, though her tone indicated she anticipated resistance to this option. "Perhaps to Alexander Beth's property, which has more extensive security infrastructure from Alexander's overprotective days." Liam's arm tightened around Lucas, who had gr
Grace pov Stay inside with the children until security arrives," Elena instructed. "Keep your phone with you. I'll be there within the hour." By the time Liam's truck roared into the driveway fifteen minutes later, Miguel and Tessa were already establishing a defensive perimeter around the prope
Grace pov Tell me exactly what happened," Liam requested, his voice low and controlled despite the tension evident in his posture. I described both incidents—the feeling of being watched at the house and the confirmed surveillance at the library, finishing with Miguel's recommendation to vary ou
Grace pov The first indication that something wasn't right came on an ordinary Tuesday morning in late autumn. I was loading Lucas into his car seat for our weekly library trip, chatting with my son about the storytime theme while Sophia dozed in her infant carrier. As I closed Lucas's door and mo
Amber pov By the time I reached the outskirts of Riverview, the emotional complexity of my Fireside visit had settled into a more balanced perspective. The past remained the past—acknowledged, honored for what it had taught me, but no longer exerting undue influence on my present choices or future
Amber pov Thank you for that perspective," she replied, genuine gratitude in her voice. "It helps." We parted with professional handshakes and promises to maintain contact about the protocol implementation, but I carried Dr. Winters' insight with me as I returned to my hotel to check out and pre
