Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Sixty-Two - Catastrophe
Tori’s POVThe adrenaline rush of being in such a horrible predicament and coming through it was wearing off much faster than I had expected leaving me weak. I was worried about Fran yet knew I had to be at my best to help her.I really needed Calvin’s supporting arm as we made our way to the medical facility I hadn’t known about.“Do you think we should have one of these?” I asked.“Unnecessary. And it would cost too much.”That was my line.“Not if we set Ellie up in her own practice.”“Trust you. Jobs for the girls, is it?”His teasing tone was just what I needed.“She’ll never go for it,” I said.We were grinning, despite everything, as he pushed open the white door marked ‘Aftercare’.That was when we saw Alex holding a knife to the female medic’s throat. It meant the others were probably still in the building too.“Release her, at once,” Alpha Calvin demanded.“Are you injured?” I gasped, noticing the blood on her arm.“Not me,” she managed, before collapsing onto the floor rend
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Sixty-Three - Outnumbered
Tori’s POVBethany refused to come out of hiding. She said it was for my own good.You can’t fight back. He’ll kill you.I don’t think so.Thaddeus is out there. You have to give me a chance to reach him.My wolf could be such an optimist when it suited her. Yet nowadays, so was I. The plan was to make Tommy fed up with me and my unresponsiveness. It had to work sometime.And it made me feel a bit less guilty about allowing another to touch what belonged to Calvin. As if I had any choice in the matter.Strangely, after that first time my captor refrained from full penetration.What was that about? My bruises were fading too. Would I be sold in the near future? Maybe I’d not seen the last of Alpha Joseph.I was imagining a hidden villa containing his personal sex slaves when she turned up, Mrs King. That was when I learned she’d been the one to free Tommy from his bonds.“This is more like it,” she purred, strolling round the hut, which was actually a log cabin and her second home. “I
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Sixty-Four - Losing Her
Calvin’s POV What a total fuck-up and I only had myself to blame. I should never have left my mate undefended. I obviously wasn’t thinking straight. Instead of delegating tasks as usual I went charging off to right yet more wrongdoing and almost got myself killed. It was a shock to see Tommy free and he fought dirty, knocking me out for a spell before making his escape. Someone set fire to the building and he was the obvious suspect. So Rhodes had lost his job but I was sure he would find a new one. My fellow Alphas were proving to be surprisingly co-operative, especially young Dante who was just coming down from a drugged high. I reprimanded him for being out of control and contemplating a scene. But it seemed he’d been under more than one influence and I decided to be lenient rather than judge. What he’d planned to do to Tori had been orchestrated by another and there was no real harm done. Yet I chose not to tell him that. My father taught me that years ago. It binds people to
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Sixty-Five - The Approach
Calvin’s POVI was surprised to find that Jason Moore had the uncanny ability to mind link almost anyone, no matter which pack they came from. I began to wonder if the so-called Lycan was actually a warlock. If so, we really needed his services now.He agreed to meet me on the slightly neutral ground of ‘Cheetah’s’ one afternoon. Toby owed me that much.“I do have her. But it’s not what you think.”We were waiting for the bartender to bring us coffee after which he went back to bottling up.“Can you tell me why?”“I’m tired of being packless, not quite a rogue because I’ve worked mostly for Alphas.”“So Fran’s a bargaining chip?”“I wouldn’t put it quite like that.”We were skirting around things and I was close to losing my temper.“I want to see her. Today, if possible.”“I’ll bring her to you,” he said, blowing on his cappuccino.“Not good enough.”I didn’t want to take the chance he’d run.“Take me into your pack and I won’t ever work for anyone else.”“Give me one good reason why
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Sixty-Six - My Terms
Tori’s POVTommy laughed when I told him I would become his recruiter on condition he didn’t touch me inappropriately again.“That goes for Mrs King, too.”I didn’t want to know her first name; we were never going to be friends.“You’ll do as you’re told. Or she gets it, the she-wolf we’re holding.”“Do it, see if I care,” I dared him.He seized my neck in a strong grip. I’d been through worse.“You’re my toy for as long as I want you. Say it.”I began to choke and exaggerated the sounds I was making long enough for him to loosen his hold.“No deal," I panted. "And if you choose to force yourself on me again, I swear the first chance I get I’ll kill myself.”At that point I thanked the Goddess for those acting classes in college.“You need to learn who’s master.”“Go on, prove yourself an Alpha male. Rape me and watch my willingness to help you go down to zero.”The beating which followed was better than the alternative. Part of me wondered if Calvin was feeling this, too.So now I ha
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Sixty-Seven - Undercover
Calvin’s POVI was impatient once I saw the first few postings about a new academy being set up north of the border. No address supplied. Jason counselled patience. I wanted to hit him, even though he’d been the one to reach out.Again, he advised me not to reveal myself, in case Tommy still believed I’d bitten the dust.I wanted to bite him and would, given half a chance. Archer had it coming and then some.“We need to send someone up there. Maybe a Dom. Alpha, call me thick but I can’t understand why you have mated pack members as trainers at ‘Remus’.”“I guess I didn’t think,” I said, recalling how that had ended with Mel. Yet she was guilty of so much more. “Should I suggest it to Oscar?”“Better not.” What did he know that I didn’t? Could he read minds? “What I meant was someone posing as a would-be dominant.”“It might be best to send a potential sub,” I said, taking control of the conversation. “I’ll sound Susan out.”That was how we ended up with a volunteer. Ursula, the Sigma
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Sixty-Eight - Treachery
Tori’s POV“How did you get here so fast? I mean, I only texted you the address yesterday.”“Alpha Thomas isn’t the only one with access to a helicopter,” Ursula said.“Really? Calvin been splashing out?”“Something like that.”I almost didn’t recognise her and she seemed even leaner than when I’d seen her last.“Welcome to ‘Lashes’. Tommy will be down in a second.”“Tommy, is it? What about your fated mate?”“Ssh.” I cautioned. I’d done my best not to disclose that particular snippet of information, though I suspected my captor was in the know by now anyway.Assuming he hadn’t been playing me all along.For some reason he wanted to interview the Sigma by himself. I really hoped she could carry this off. A lot was riding on it. The plan we’d agreed on by text was that she would flounce out, having signed an NDA as to what we were about. It was flimsy at best and he probably wouldn’t go for it.Worst case scenario: she would be stuck here, like Rose and me. I really hoped she’d informe
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Sixty-Nine - Something You Should Know
Calvin’s POVI hadn’t felt right ever since that public whipping in the now burnt out club. These days I was just going through the motions, trying to keep Thaddeus in check, while I waited for news from above the border.Call it a stroke of luck but Ellie brought Doctor Megan to see me in the nick of time. I was just about to give the go ahead for the raid on ‘Lashes’. It would mean crossing the border into Canada illegally but I would worry about that later.The consequences could have been disastrous.“Go on, tell the Alpha what you told me.”I could see the medic was uneasy and did my best not to scare her. It worked, up to a point – until she told me there was something in my head which shouldn’t be there.“And you’re not the only one.”“Fuck! Remove it, now!”“It might not be that simple,” Megan admitted. “There could be a chain reaction.”“What do you suggest?”“We need to consult a warlock.”In the end I stood the team down, keeping my fingers crossed that the Lycan would cont
