Daphne and I combed through spells in her grimoire, looking for anything that might help, but found nothing.

"There is something that might work." Daphne rose from her seat, headed back over to the bookshelf. She removed another book, and then started paging through. "Ah-ha!"

"What?" I asked, crossing the room to her. But she walked past me and laid the book on the table. "Silver chains can be spelled to prevent the use of magic."

"Yes, that's right!" I said. "Xander and Elias tied Balista up in the dungeon using spelled chains. But as soon as he broke free, his magic returned."

"Yes, but they can also be spelled to adhere to one's arm or wrist automatically," she replied. When it meets the witch's arm, it automatically wraps itself around it and prevents the wearer from using magic."

"Good," I said, looking over her shoulder at the spell. "Can you do it? Create the chains?"

She nodded, smiling. "I can make it into a collar or a wristband. Both will prevent their use of magic, but I t

    Cruz came to the door of the Clinic to get Bailey but wouldn't come in. "Ready?" he asked her, ignoring me. If there's one thing I hate, it's being intentionally avoided. But that was beside the point.Bailey nodded, smiling sweetly. "Let me just get my things." She disappeared into the back for a moment."You okay, Cruz?" I asked, noticing that he wouldn't even look at me.I was surprised. When I first met him, and he brought me to the Blood Moon Choosing ceremony, he had three girls when I left. I found it hard to believe that things could change that much between us and that drastically over just one kiss that night before I met Elias and Xander.He shrugged. "Okay."Just then, Bailey bounced from the back of the Clinic, her eyes bright. "Ready?"Cruz nodded, giving her his signature impish smile. "As ready as I'll ever be.""Have fun!" I chirped, my voice a bit too cheerful, even to my own ears. Bailey waved over her shoulder and then headed out. Then Cruz waved, too, smiling. At

    "You're welcome to stay as our guest," Xander said to Rolph. "You can meet us for dinner, and Elias and I will accompany her." Xander gave my hand a gentle squeeze. "I know that Kalyssa is interested in learning more about her people.""Just understand," I added. "I'm not going to hear you out as a potential Mate. As I said, I'm happy here, and I'm not leaving.""Where shall I meet you and what time?" he asked, addressing only me."In the small conference room," Xander interjected. "We'll be there at six o'clock. It won't be a formal affair."One corner of Roth's lips curled into a smile, clearly amused. "I'll be there."After he left and was out of earshot, Xander turned to face me. "He'll take you over my dead body!" Xander yelled. "If he thinks he can just come in here and take you as his Mate, then he has another thing coming!""Xander, calm down!""I will not calm down!" he yelled. "Do you really want to go out with this guy?""What do you think?" I rolled my eyes, letting out a d

    After we finished Round Two in the elevator, Xander and I headed to my place to shower and had Round 3. One thing about wolf-shifters, they have stamina."Are you sure you're not too tired to go tonight?" Xander asked, wrapping a white towel around his thin, muscular waist.I chuckled. "So, is that what this sexcapade was all about this afternoon? To tire me out so I wouldn't want to go tonight?"He shrugged, giving me a sexy smile as he pressed his lips to mine. "No. Not at all. You are just a hard woman to resist," he breathed against my lips and then gave me one last sweet kiss. "I'll see you in a minute.""Xander!" I smiled, shaking my head in disbelief. "Please, tell me you aren't going across the hallway in just a towel!"He shrugged, giving me a mischievous smile. "Why not? And if Rolph sees me coming out of your room like this, maybe he'll get the hint.""You're incorrigible."He chuckled. "I try." Then he darted out, leaving me to get ready.

    "I don't like leaving you alone." Xander sat on the edge of the bed in our shared bedroom, pulling on his boots. The night before, both Xander and Elias had insisted on staying with me until after Rolf left the Compound. "You won't be safe again until he's gone.""I'll be fine." I pulled on the shirt of my scrubs. "I refuse to live my life in fear. Besides, I've left Bailey alone in the Clinic too many times as it is." I sat on the edge of the bed and tied my white nurses' shoes, having brought over a change of clothes with me the night before."Well, I'll walk you down then." Xander quickly added, "And that is non-negotiable."I nodded, relenting. If I could carry on with my normal daily activities in peace, then I would be happy. As I had said, I refused to live my life in fear that someone would do something to me. Otherwise, I'd never get anything done. Even though I had a long way to go to mastery, I had enough magical skills now that I felt reasonably safe. "Well, just in case,

    I was just about to teleport out when Rolph walked back in... followed by Rush Balista. "I should have known you were behind this.""Well, well! It's good to see you again, too." A broad smile spread across Balista's lips as he strolled toward me. "It's a pleasure to see you again."I scoffed, shaking my head. "I wish I could say the same. So, I see you tried another tactic?" I nodded toward Rolph. "Are you even an Arctic Wolf? I know for a fact you're not an Alpha."He smirked, taking a step toward me. "And what makes you say that?"I lowered my head and looked up, my eyes flaring. "Because Alphas are honorable. You have no honor!""I assure you," Rolph said, taking a step closer. "My honor is still intact.""Enough!" Balista yelled, a crack in his usual calm demeanor showing. He snarled as he moved his head to first one side, popping his neck."But we had a deal!" Rolph growled.Balista calmly stepped toward him, looking directly into his eyes. "Yes, we do. Pray that I don't alter it

    "I have a Bloodstone ring here that you can have." Daphne headed to the wooden table on the wall and pulled open the drawer. She looked around for a bit and pulled out a long, slender box, closed the drawer, and brought it to the table."That's very nice of you to give it to her, but we'll pay you for the ring," Elias said.A smile lit Daphne's lips. "No, thank you. That won't be necessary. But I would suggest making Bloodstone rings for the whole pack. Anyone who wears one will be protected.""Sounds good," Xander replied. "Just let us know where to get them, and we'll take care of it."Daphne sighed. "Since we'll need so many rings, they'll have to be specially made. No one has that many Bloodstones handy, let alone already set in rings. But we can talk about that later. Right now, let's get this spelled and on her finger before her kidnapper comes back."Elias's head snapped up. "Can he do that?"She shrugged. "If he follows the residual magic that she left behind, then yes. He coul

    "We're just so happy that you were able to teleport back to us," Elias whispered, holding me close, his hand on the back of my head. "I'm so sorry we weren't able to find you. They must have some kind of cloaking spell on the warehouse."Just then, the elevators opened on the fifth floor. "Are you sure it was a warehouse?" Xander asked, placing his hand on my back as they both led me out. It was as if they both had to touch me to make sure I was really there and safe. I nodded, letting them lead me to our shared suite. "Guys, just to let you know, I need to get some rest. If you like, I can go to my—""If you think for one minute that we're going to let you out of our sight after what happened, then think again," Elias said as Xander opened the door to our suite. "We don't have to do anything if you don't want to." "Thanks. I just want to relax." Then I had an idea. "Why don't we go to the pool? I think a swim would help me."A broad smile spread across Xander's lips. "Great idea.""

    "I need to call Bailey and make sure she's okay." I slipped into a fluffy white robe and grabbed my cell phone. Then I remembered. "Wait. She's away with Cruz.""Don't worry. The Clinic will be fine for one day." Elias sat up in bed. "Besides, it's too late to go in now."I nodded. "Well, I'm going to go home and take a shower and relax. Come over later. I'll make us dinner tonight." I quickly gathered my clothes before they could object. "I'll watch you walk over." Xander slid out of bed stark naked, looking good enough to eat."Thanks." After waving goodbye to Elias, I headed toward the front door and gave Xander a quick kiss, but he pulled me close and deepened the kiss, his enthusiasm evident. "I have to go."One corner of his lips curled into a sexy smile as he opened the door and leaned against the door facing. "If you must.""If I don't leave now, I never will." I could say that I didn't know why I was lingering, but I knew.Xander shrugged. "Then don't. We can all move into th

    Over the next few days, we prepared for our Pledging Ceremony and Eve and Dannan's wedding. Their wedding had been a few days before our Pledging Ceremony and had been nothing short of an event—the complete opposite of Cruz and Eve's Wedding. But it suited them well. After all, Dannan and Eve were much more flamboyant than Cruz and Bailey. Also, nearly every member of Dannan's pack had arrived for their Wedding, adding to their numbers. But it was a lot of fun.Xander had performed the ceremony, and we had danced into the night. Eve and Dannan looked happy, too. Since they had found each other, both of them seemed to be less grumpy and easier to get along with. And with the trial behind her, Eve was able to concentrate on the wedding and enjoy it. She had surprised me by asking me to be her Maid of Honor, and I had graciously accepted. After what we had been through together, we had continued to grow closer. Even though she was still Eve, she was a better version of herself than she h

    The next day, Sasha was found guilty of treason and sentenced to fifty years in the Alpha Supreme's prison. Eve and Dannan were in attendance, along with Xander, Elias, and me. Seven, her brother, was there, too."I'm so sorry, Seven," I said, patting his arm after the trial. "But the evidence was overwhelming."Seven nodded, a crease forming between his eyes. "Yes, I know. Who knows? Maybe the next fifty years will give her time to think. She should be punished for siding with Nightshade against the wolves." He let out a deep breath. "But I'll visit her in prison and will try to help her in any way I can."I gave his arm a gentle squeeze. "You're a good brother."He shook his head. "Thanks, but I don't feel like it.""Seven, this wasn't your fault." I let out a deep breath. "You had no idea what she was up to."He nodded. "I know. I had a feeling she was up to something, but I had no idea what it was." He smiled, looking at Xander, Elias, and me. "Thank you all for everything you've d

    When we walked into the Main Dining Hall, Gray was already at the table, talking to Dannan and Eve. Cruz and Bailey were sitting at their usual table, but I stopped, scrunching up my nose as I took them in."What are you two doing here?" I chuckled. "You're supposed to be up there with us!"Cruz smirked as he looked over at Bailey, arching an eyebrow. "Well? What do you think?"Bailey looked up at me and shrugged. "With the Alpha Supreme here, we didn't want to intrude.""Get up here!" I teased. "You're never intruding! Besides, I'd like to introduce you two to him."Bailey looked at me sheepishly. "Are you sure there's enough room?""Absolutely!" I glanced over at Xander. "We could always have another table brought up. Couldn't we?""Yes, of course!" Xander smirked, holding Bailey's chair. "You two are part of the family now."Cruz chuckled. "You go ahead. We're right behind you."I pulled Bailey in for a quick hug, smiling sweetly. "If you don't come up there, then I'll come back for

    Chapter 117: Time Alone"You don't think Rolph would do anything, do you?" All we needed right now was for Rolph to find out that we're being Pledged and then do something to stop it. Xander shook his head as we headed toward the elevator. We had just taken the Alpha Supreme to his room to rest before dinner and had a few minutes alone. Xander shook his head, looking toward Gray's room, and his door was closed.We stepped into the elevator before Xander spoke. "No, I don't think so. If he hadn't done anything by now, then I don't think he will."I nodded. "I hope you're right."Once the doors closed, Xander backed me against the wall, placing his hands on either side of me. "Kalyssa, the only thing I want you to think about right now is the Pledging Ceremony." He brushed a strand of hair back away from my face, looking into my eyes, causing my heart to quicken. With him so close like this, it made it difficult to concentrate."Okay," I breathed, lacing my fingers through his light br

    We spent the next few days getting everything ready. We had our work cut out for us, helping Dannan and Eve plan their wedding as well as planning our Pledging Ceremony.Come to find out, a Pledging Ceremony is just as much work as a wedding. The only difference is that the couple is bound to one another instead of married. In the shifter world, it's usually common as an engagement ceremony, during which time either party may choose not to marry the other without fault. But it's okay to use as a semi-marriage ceremony, too. Legally, I couldn't marry two men, so this was the next best thing. But in our eyes, we will be bound to one another, whether we're technically married in the eyes of the law or not."So, what kind of flowers would you like?" I asked Eve as we planned with Bailey at the Clinic. Since Sasha ended up being the one who betrayed our pack to Nightwatch, it left Eve with very few, if any, close friends. So, Bailey and I had offered to help her plan since we were planning

    "So, I see that my brother and Elias finally put a ring on your finger." Dannan smiled as he took my hand to admire the engagement ring Elias and Xander gave to me. "So, when's the big day?"I shrugged as Xander took my hand and kissed it. "I'm not sure. We haven't set one yet.""Well, why don't you do it while Dannan's here?" Eve suggested, slipping her arm through his."Hey! That's a great idea!" Dannan looked between Xander and Elias. "Why not? I could help you get everything in order while I'm here."Elias smiled, taking my hand as he looked between Xander and me. "Well, what do you think?"A broad smile spread across Xander's lips. "I'm game if you two are."I nodded, smiling. "Let's do it! What day?"Xander shrugged. "A week from today?""That won't give us much time to prepare." Elias suddenly looked lost in thought. and then glanced over at me, arching an eyebrow. "Will that be okay with you?"I nodded. "We can do it if we keep it small. It doesn't have to be an elaborate affai

    "Well, hello, brother."When we walked in, I nearly fell over, for standing a short distance away was Dannan Reed, Xander's brother."It's good to see you, Dannan." Xander gave him a manly handshake, pulling him in for a hug, and then released him. "So, what brings you here?"He shrugged, arching an eyebrow. "So, I need a reason to come see my brother?""Usually." Xander burst out laughing, giving him a friendly slap on the back. "Come. Join us. We just held a Celebration of Making and was just about to celebrate with a feast.""So, has the she-wolf Eve been claimed yet?" Dannan asked, looking around. I smiled, biting my lower lip, knowing that was the real reason why he had come. "Why? Has the love bug bitten you?"Dannan scoffed. "Please." He shrugged. "Just wanted to check on her while I was here." His expression turned serious as his eyes met Xander's. "So, has she been claimed?"Xander chuckled, shaking his head. "No. Not yet. She and Kalyssa got into a bit of trouble--"Dannan g

    The next day, I woke in the arms of my Alphas, sure, for the first time since we had been together, that I belonged."Good morning," Xander rolled over on me and brushed back the hair from my face and kissed my neck. Then he kissed my cheeks as he slowly pushed into me, moving his lips down as he kissed my breast, his pulls soft and slow, arching his back as he went deep. Then he moved slowly in and out, holding me as he pushed into me.I pulled him to me and kissed his broad shoulders, enjoying the feel of this powerful man in my arms and my bed. Then I pulled his lips to mine and deepened the kiss. When I pulled back, I pushed the hair away from his face to look into his eyes, matching him thrust for thrust.Soon, want and desire overtook us as his pulls became harder, more forceful. He held himself up with one hand and caressed my pleasure spot with the other, while never breaking his stride. His kiss was filled with want and desire as he looked deeply into my eyes. Then he slid my

    "That's enough, everyone," Xander said, holding everyone back so I could walk through the garage.When Bailey and I got back, everyone wanted a ride, but Elias and Xander had something else planned for this evening, and I didn't want to disappoint them. Surely, the last thing they wanted was to have me spend the rest of the evening giving members of the pack rides in my new sports car.Bailey pulled me in for a hug. "Thanks for taking me." She arched an eyebrow when she pulled back. "See you at the Clinic Monday?"I nodded, knowing it would give me a few days to rest since this was Friday. "I'll be there."She crossed the room to stand by Cruz, and he wrapped his arm around her shoulders and nodded toward me, giving me his usual mischievous grin. "You know, you're going to let me give it a whirl. Right?"I scoffed. "Yeah, right," I teased as everyone laughed. Even though I was kidding around, I would probably let him drive it at least once anyway.Elias placed his hand on the small of
