“Strip!” A cold command sent chills down my spine. “What the hell?” I thought. Before I could get any words past my throat, a tall, dark figure stepped forward. “Get undressed,” the man growled. His voice was like waves crashing against rocks and his command, one that almost brought me to my knees, made my stomach flip. A night at the club brings Elodie closer to her destiny, but she vows to stay away from Chase because he was trouble with a capital T. Fate brings them even closer when she realizes he was to be her step uncle. A human and an Alpha, their worlds don't mix as far as Chase knew but what he didn't know was Elodie wasn't an ordinary human girl as he thought.
View MoreI lay there, my body still reeling from the intensity of our encounter. Chase's body was still wrapped around mine, his chest heaving with exertion.I couldn't believe what had just happened. I'd never felt so alive, so consumed by desire. Chase's touch had set me on fire, and I'd never been able to extinguish the flames.As I looked into his eyes, I saw something there that gave me pause. Something that made me wonder if I'd made a mistake.But I couldn't think about that now. All I could think about was the way he'd made me feel. The way he'd touched me, kissed me, possessed me.I felt a shiver run down my spine as I remembered the way he'd taken control, the way he'd demanded my submission. It was exhilarating, terrifying, and utterly addictive.I knew I should be scared. I knew I should be worried about the consequences of our actions. But all I could think about was the way he'd made me feel.We still had a lot of things to talk about. A lot of issues to iron out, but at that mom
_Chase’s POV_Before I could grasp her words, she wrapped her hands around my neck and slammed her lips into mine, hot and demanding.I was frozen for a second before I pulled her away, but her eyes burned with passion.I stared at Elodie, my mind reeling with shock. What was she doing? One minute she was pushing me away, and the next, she was kissing me like she wanted to devour me whole.I tried to push her back, but my body betrayed me. My hands lingered on her shoulders, my fingers digging into her skin."Elodie, stop," I growled, trying to sound firm. But my voice was laced with desire.She didn't listen. She just kept kissing me, her lips soft and insistent. I felt my resolve crumbling, my body responding to her touch.I tried to reason with her, to explain the danger that we could be caught at anytime. But she didn't care. She just kept pushing, her body pressed against mine."Elodie, please," I whispered, my voice barely audible. "You don't understand. There are things...peopl
_Elodie's POV_I tried to shake off the hand gripping my elbow, but it only tightened its hold. I spun around, my heart racing, and saw one of the men from the black sedan looming over me.His face looked familiar and then it clicked. He was one of the men from the restaurant."Let me go!" I shouted, trying to pry his fingers off my arm.But he just sneered, his eyes glinting with malice. "You're coming with us, Elodie," he growled.I struggled and kicked, but he was too strong. He dragged me across the sidewalk, my feet scraping against the pavement. The city lights blurred together as I stumbled, my mind reeling with fear.Just as I thought all was lost, a loud crash echoed through the air. The man's grip on my arm faltered, and I stumbled backward, gasping for breath.I turned to see Chase, his eyes blazing with fury, charging towards the man who had been holding me. But it wasn't just Chase - he seemed...different. His movements were fluid, almost animalistic, and his eyes seemed
_Chase's POV_I leaned against the couch, my eyes fixed on the woman sitting across from me. She was beautiful, with piercing green eyes and raven-black hair. But my mind wasn't on her. It was on Elodie.I hadn't seen or heard from her in two days, and I was starting to get anxious. Not because I cared, but because I needed to know she was safe.At least that was what I told myself.Natalie, the sister of that little prick who was always after Elodie, chatted on about her day, but I tuned her out. My thoughts were a jumble of emotions, none of which I could quite grasp.For the first time in my life, I was torn between my duty as alpha of my pack, and the spiraling emotions that came with Elodie, whom my wolf insisted was my mate.The point of Daniel’s birthday party was to get the person linked to him that was the key to opening the safe, and somehow, Alex’s search ended up with Natalie.But the longer she opened her mouth, the more I doubted that she had anything to do with it.Just
*Chase's POV*I stared at my phone, my mind racing with thoughts of Elodie and the conversation she'd just had with Daniel. I could sense the tension in her messages, the unease that seemed to permeate every word.I'd been about to head over to the house, to talk to her in person and figure out our next move. But her last message had stopped me in my tracks. "Please, don't. I have it under control." I wasn't sure if I believed her.I knew Daniel had seen us together, had sensed the connection between us. And I knew he wouldn't hesitate to use that against us. Though I wouldn’t care less about what he knew or did, I was more concerned about Elodie.I sighed, feeling a mix of frustration and concern. I didn't want to push her, didn't want to make her feel like I was suffocating her. But at the same time, I couldn't just sit back and do nothing.I decided to give her some space, to let her handle Daniel for now. But I couldn't shake the feeling that this was far from over. That Daniel's
As we walked hand in hand towards the building, I felt a sense of calmness wash over me. But that tranquility was short-lived, as we were met with a surprise visitor - Daniel.His disapproving gaze fell on our entwined hands, and I felt a jolt of anxiety. My eyes doubled in size, and I tried to yank ny hand away from Chase’s hold, but his grip on my hand only tightened, as if sensing my unease."Daniel," Chase said, his voice neutral.Daniel's eyes narrowed. "Chase, what's going on here?"Chase's expression remained calm. "Just taking Elodie for a walk, Daniel."At this point, my heart was slamming out of my chest, and I felt a bead of cold sweat rolling down my spine.Daniel's gaze lingered on our hands before shifting to my face. "Ellie, your mother is worried sick about you. You need to call her."I felt a surge of guilt since I had been avoiding her call all of last night and this morning, but Chase's presence kept me grounded. "I'll call her soon, Daniel."Daniel's expression tur
My heart skipped a beat as I gazed into Chase's eyes, the truth finally sinking in. I was falling for him, hard. The realization both thrilled and terrified me. How could I have let this happen? He's my step-uncle, for crying out loud!And he wanted to be a better person for me!Chase's expression softened, and he reached out to brush a strand of hair behind my ear. "Hey, don't worry about it, okay? I'm here for you, and I care about you deeply."I nodded, trying to process my emotions. I felt like I was drowning in a sea of confusion.Chase took my hand, his touch sending shivers down my spine. "Let's put this aside for now and enjoy the day, okay?"I nodded, and he led me out of the house, into the warm sunlight. We walked hand in hand, the tension between us palpable.It felt weird walking through the peaceful morning with him without the fear of being caught my my mom or anyone that knew us, and I wished the day would last a little longer.As we strolled through the park, Chase po
I woke up to the warm sunlight peeking through the windows.I opened my eyes, and was met with a somewhat familiar ceiling. My brain was a bit hazy, but the fog soon cleared up, and my heart slammed in my chest.The last time I was here…..I snapped my head to the side of the bed, and my heartbeat instantly slowed down at the sight of the man sleeping peacefully next to me with his hand around my torso.He didn't leave.He was still here.I smiled softly and snuggled deeper into his side, and his hand instinctively tightened around me.He looked so beautiful while his slept with more worry creases or frown marring his forehead.His chest rose and fell with each gentle breath, and his hair was mussed from sleep. I could never pull that off. I didn't need to look to know there was a whole party going on in my hair.I smiled though, feeling a sense of contentment wash over me. Last night had been incredible, and I couldn't believe how much I had missed him.I gently brushed a strand of h
I nodded, and Chase smiled, his eyes crinkling at the corners, relief flooding through him. He took my hand, and we walked away from the coffee shop, into the night.As we strolled, the tension between us was palpable. We didn't need to say a word; our bodies spoke for us. We were drawn to each other like magnets, unable to resist the pull.We walked for blocks, hand in hand, until we reached Chase's car. He opened the door for me, and I slid in, feeling a sense of excitement and trepidation.As Chase got in and started the engine, I couldn't help but wonder. But I pushed the thoughts aside and focused on the moment.We drove through the city, the lights blurring together as we sped by. Chase's hand found mine, and he squeezed it gently, his thumb drawing slow circles on my palm."I'm glad we're doing this," he said, his voice low and husky."Me too," I replied, my voice barely above a whisper.We drove for what felt like hours, the silence between us comfortable. Finally, we arrived
