Cammy's POV

Nooo! Stop!!" I pushed Kai away from me, my chest rising and falling in rapid, uneven breaths. My pulse thundered in my ears as I stared at him, wide-eyed in shock. He was going to mark me—like this?

I wanted to be angry, but the melded emotions of our bond—his hurt and mine—only left me confused, unsteady.

Kai’s pitch-black eyes burned with rage, but beneath it, I sensed something raw, something deeper. He wasn’t just furious; he was wounded. But why? Why was he this mad at me? Wasn’t he supposed to love me? I felt his emotions as clearly as my own—there was no way I had misjudged them.

“I want to mark my mate,” he growled, his voice husky with barely restrained emotion. He pulled me against him again, kissing up my shoulder before scraping his fangs down to where he intended to claim me. A shudder of pleasure coursed through me, nearly tempting me to give in, but my heart was still hammering, and a cold dread prickled along my skin. This wasn’t how it was suppose

    Cammy POV I hesitated outside the door of Luna Melissa’s home, adjusting the hem of my sweater. The huge house was beautiful but cold, much like the woman who lived inside it. I wrung the doorbell, and within seconds, it swung open. She'd probably already picked up that I was here the short while I'd talked myself out of leaving. My luna wasn't my biggest fan, but she was my mother in-law. And for that reason alone I found myself standing here after a long day of luna chores. Luna Melissa stood before me, her perfectly sculpted features unreadable. “Cameron,” she said smoothly, arching an eyebrow. “To what do I owe this… surprise?” I smiled despite the chill in the air between us. “I thought we could spend some time together. Just the two of us.” Her brown eyes flickered with something I couldn’t quite name before she stepped aside, gesturing for me to enter. “Tea?” she offered as I walked in. “That would be lovely, thank you.” Melissa moved with an effortless grace as s

    Melissa POV 19 years ago Luna Melissa sat on the edge of the empty bed, hands trembling as she clutched the fabric of her dress. The room was silent except for the steady breathing of the three-year-old boy curled up on the beside her. Kai. Her son. The only light in the suffocating darkness that had become her life. He had fallen asleep while the movers where setting up his crib in the nursery next to her room. The front door downstairs swung open with a force that made the walls tremble. Alpha Sigfried entered the bedroom, his broad frame filling the doorway, his face cast in shadow. The golden chandeliers of the Alpha House still flickered in the distance through the window, mocking her. She wasn’t allowed there anymore. She never would be. Melissa stood, straightening her spine despite the tremor in her limbs. “Sig—” “Don’t.” His voice was cold, cutting through her like ice. “Don’t you dare say my name like it means something.” Her breath hitched, but she forced herself

    Cammy POV I slowed to a jog as I neared the forest edge, my breath steady despite the unease curling in my stomach. The scent of marijuana drifted through the crisp morning air, mixing with the damp earth and pine. Kai was awake.And he was angry. I rolled my eyes heavenward, shifting into human form as I reached the perimeter of trees surrounding our property. Lately, Kai had been more volatile than usual. Not just the usual dominance and possessiveness—I had learned to navigate that. This was something deeper. Something raw. Ever since our conversation by the lake, he had been... different. Conflicted. He wasn’t just battling with me—he was battling himself. I shouldn’t have said the "L" word so soon. He wasn’t ready to hear it, let alone process it. Instead of acknowledging it, he had buried himself in control, asserting his dominance at every turn, reminding me that I belonged to him alone at every opportunity. Then I had to remind him of my love for him. My heart ached

    Cammy POV He smiled that cocky smile of his that took my breath away. "Because you are mine, baby." I rolled my eyes at him. Wolves were possessive creatures. It sparked warmth inside my chest whenever he spoke this way. I was his and he was mine. I wasn't irritated with him. I was actually irritated with myself. I wanted to be completely his. I wanted to tell him what I was. But the words just never found their way out. What if those words meant that I would lose him. The lie was eating me alive. My father's warning something that I wanted to block from my mind and throw all caution to the wind. Kai lifted me on the island counter and ran his hands up my back as he dropped his lips to my neck. He pulled me to the edge and thrust his tip into my aching core. I gasped and pulled away enough to look down at his silky manhood that he'd pulled free from his shorts and was slowly pressing into me. This was how Kai transitioned from dominance to love. This was the only way he knew. I w

    Kai POVThe ringing of my cellphone snapped my head out of the quarterly figures I was reviewing. The insta-scowl on my face, at the interuption, ironed itself out as soon as I saw Cammy's beautiful face lighting up the screen."Hi baby.""Hi Love." Her gentle voice had my heart rate pick up and I actually fucking smiled into the phone like a pubescent teenager speaking to a girl, regardless of that fucking pet name she kept calling me. Shit."So....Lindy and I are over at Ollie's for lunch, and um, since your office is close by, um, I was just wondering if you'd, um, like me to get you something?" She sounded all shy and shit, making a smile creep over my face. Like, a real shit-faced fucking smile! I wasn't even trying to stop that shit anymore. The thought of having her here, in my empire sent a primal rumble through my chest."Ollie's huh? Well, a crumbed chicken, with veg and baked potato would be great. Have them throw in a gravy roll on the side." Ollie's was a popular cafe dow

    Kai POV She leaned both her arms over my shoulders and moved her fingers in my hair, massaging my scalp. "Ah, come on Kai." She whispered in my ear. "I can see you're mad. You sounded like you could really use some help relieving some of that stress." I felt her tongue on the lobe of my ear as she licked and nibbled. That same tongue that I had used for my own pleasure countless times over the past year or so, before Cammy came along. That's why I employed her three months ago. An easy fuck and duck. No commitment. I winced at the unwelcome touch. Even her smell was wrong. "Let me help you." Her breath fanned over my face and I shut my eyes. This was the hard part. The part I knew would come as soon as I'd promised Cammy I'd be faithful to her. I would have to turn her down, and hope the whole fucking pack didn't hear about it. They'd think I was a fucking fag! "Get your fucking hands off me. Now." I growled. She froze. "Come on, Big Daddy, I miss you. I need you to show me a g

    Cammy's POV I heard the front door shut and quickly tugged on my laces, pulled tight, looped and gave one final pull. I had hoped to be gone before Kai got home, but he was early. Just my luck! I was still too angry about freaking Angelique being his secretary to face him right now. Flashback: "How do you just forget to mention that your ex-girlfriend works for you?" I asked in that scary calm way that people do right before they rip your throat out. My elongated fangs pressing against the inside of my lips, begging me to turn around and follow after the sickeningly beautiful wolf who had only minutes before told my mate that she was 'available' anytime he wanted her. "Look, baby, it was never about Angelique. She never ment anything. I wouldn't even call her a girlfriend." Kai was so blasé that my fury changed direction and aimed itself at him. "Except that is what you called her!" My self control was hanging by a thread. I narrowed my eyes at him causing him to hesitate

    "Cammy POV You're not going anywhere near my father." "What! Why?" "I don't trust him with you. Stay away from him, Cameron." He hissed. "That's insane. We train with him everyday! Besides, he's my father in-law. I can't exactly avoid him." "I'm serious. I want you to stay away from him apart from training and family or pack gatherings. And never alone." "I don't understand. Why are you saying this?" Kai sighed heavily and pushed a strand of hair behind my ear. "Just promise me. Please." I was so confused. "He is still my Alpha. I can't ignore a direct order. He told me to meet him in his office at 4." "Fuck it! I"ll go with you. Let me go get changed. I don't want you alone with him. Promise me you'll tell me if he ever wants to meet with you again?" I could tell that he was really upset and wondered at the reason for it. Kai was always reserved around his father. Hostile even. Especially when I was training with the warriors. But I could tell that this was somethin

    Kai's POV Cammy's eyes widened when I marched through the front door with my men. A flicker of shock and hope flickered over her delicate features. My beast took possessive inventory of our mate, assessing that our mate was indeed safe. Of course she was. Her guilt had her caged better than bars ever could. She hasn't stepped outside all week. She'd been submissive, although I could find no pleasure in it. Just the ache from the knife she'd twisted painfully into my chest. The dark circles under her eyes and messy hair was evidence of her suffering. As she should be. If I was broken, then she should be too. I snapped my gaze from hers before she could speak and led my men through the house towards my home office. "Hey Cammy!" that idiot, Slade lifted Cammy off the couch and swept her into a hug. He was being too familiar and casual with my mate for my liking. I noticed all my men eying their future queen in relief after the encounter we just had. My wolf growled far more aggre

    Cammy POVThe next few days were slow and torturous. Kai wouldn't forgive me. He remained cold and distant, his every action a silent reminder of my mistake. I apologized every time we were alone, trying desperately to win my mate back, but it was no use. He barely acknowledged me beyond what was necessary.Instead, he buried himself in work—overseeing patrols, holding endless meetings with his father and the generals, reinforcing security measures. The Blue Shadows pack had always been strong, but I hadn’t realized how deeply militant they were until now. Every movement was calculated, controlled. Members followed strict, organized routines that allowed no room for spontaneity. No one ventured out alone anymore. The once lively energy of the pack was now tight and cautious—like a coiled spring ready to snap. When I watched the movement from the windows, I could see nothing but observant eyes and tense shoulders.Training was still in full swing, but in smaller groups, and the schedul

  • Of Blood and Desire   Chapter 59

    Kai's POV The weight of her confession pressed down on me like a crushing force, suffocating and unrelenting. “I freed Edgar.” What the fuck?! The words echoed in my head, each syllable slicing through me, carving into something I wasn’t sure could heal. I was willing to risk everything for Cammy, to keep her secrets. But clearly, she was willing to risk everything to go against me. Without even considering what this would do to me or our people. And fuck, she had no idea what a sick bastard Edgar was. Cammy had made a mistake—a catastrophic, world-altering mistake. And she had just admitted it, eyes wide and brimming with guilt. But it wasn’t enough. The damage was done. Through our bond, I felt myself recoiling, closing off to her. A muscle ticked in my jaw as I forced myself to stay rooted, to keep from losing myself to the rage thrumming beneath my skin. My beast clawed at the surface, demanding action, demanding retribution. But from who? As furious as I was, as much as I w

  • Of Blood and Desire   Chapter 58

    Kai’s POV The forest was silent, but my mind was anything but. The truth sat heavy in my chest, a weight I couldn’t shake. Cammy—my sweet, gentle mate—was a fucking vampire hybrid. I could still hear her voice, soft and fragile, when she told me. I could see the way she curled into herself, waiting for my reaction, waiting for me to reject her. She had expected me to walk away. And for one, fleeting moment, I had. I had stepped out of the house, the walls closing in on me, my breath ragged as I shifted into my beast. I needed to run, to tear through the woods and let my instincts override the chaos in my head. My entire belief system had been shattered. I had spent my life hunting vampires, hating them, knowing them as nothing more than monsters that fed on the weak, taking pleasure in the suffering they inflicted. And now? Now, my mate—my entire fucking world—was part of them. "My mate." My wolf growled possessively, not happy with my thoughts. I ran until my lungs burn

    Cammy POV The sun hung low on the horizon as I approached home, its fading glow casting long shadows across the path. Every step felt heavier than the last, my mind a storm of conflicting emotions. I'd spent the entire walk trying—and failing—to steady my nerves, but the weight of my actions pressed down on me in an unforgiving grip. Treason. That was what I’d just committed. A crime punishable by death. But somehow, what cut deepest wasn’t what I'd done against my pack or my alpha—the alpha king! It was what I'd done against Kai. What did this mean for us? For our bond? The thought of standing against him again made my stomach twist painfully. Would I do it again? Could I keep choosing this path if it meant going against the man I loved? And yet, how could I stand by and do nothing while my pack continued to hunt vampires as if their lives held no worth? This wasn’t just about Edgar anymore. This was bigger. I was caught between two sides. And I had no idea where I truly belong

    Cammy POV I could still feel the ghost of Kai’s touch on my skin, the heat of his hands lingering even as I sat in the backseat next to Lindy. My head swirled with thoughts, a mix of irritation with my present predicament and quiet shock at my own actions earlier with Kai. When we had realized that Lindy had brought her friends with her, Kai's ex fuck-buddy at that, I had been pissed. Kai had pulled me off my knees and fucked me from behind on the table, leaving them to awkwardly wait by the car while I screamed out my orgasm, just like Kai's rough voice in my ear was telling me to. Than telling me what a good girl I was. Fully able to hear what was happening inside, Lindy tried to distract them with conversation, while Vera giggled and Angelique stayed quiet. Kai had smirked and told me not to wash his scent off me, to let them know that he'd just fucked me. I was horrified that he'd suggest that, horrified that I'd just allowed Kai to screw me like this, with them listening

    Kai POV Lindy brought Vera and Angelique with her to fetch Cammy. I could feel that Cammy was pissed off, but I honestly, I was grateful to the little midget. Our group had been friends for years and I didn't want to shake that more than it already was. Nate, Riley and I had been friends growing up. Vera and Angelique had always been around, being the daughters of my father's delta and beta. Naturally, Vera and Angelique found their place in our little group when Angelique and I started causally fucking. Alec and his friend Slade joined our group when Vera mated to Alec when she turned 18. The girls were strong females, and always looking for a way to the top. They were both after me, but I wasn't really into Vera when Alec was suddenly always around. When there was so much tension between Alec and his slut mate already. So mainly, she fucked around with Nate and Riley when Alec wasn't around. And I fucked with Angelique when our group was together. But, when it was just the g

    Kai POV We carry our breakfast to the table and I begin shovelling food into my mouth before Cammy even sits down, avoiding the shitfaced grin on her face. The food nearly falls out my open, gaping mouth when she leans down and kisses me on the cheek and murmers, "I love you too Kai." Fuck it's suddenly hot in here! "So what time is Lindy getting here?" I divert and fucking berate myself for the not so smooth way I cross one ankle over my knee and cut through my bacon with slightly too much fervor, making it shoot halfway off my fucking plate. "In about 40 minutes." She says glancing up at the platinum plated wall clock. "You'll remember to buy the lamb for the roast tomorrow, right?" "Yeah. Relax Cameron. My fucking parents will be grateful if I serve them a fucking sandwich for lunch." "I highly doubt that will go over well." "They better be fucking happy with whatever free food they get in my house. I don't get why you had to invite them here." I can't help grumbl

    Kai's POV Naked. She's fucking naked. And pressed up against me. Arms wrapped around my torso. One leg resting on top of mine, exposing the soft, smooth, fleshy jewel nestled between her toned thighs. The heat of her pussy burning into my skin. The steady flurry of her breaths teasing the skin of my chest. Because she's sleeping. Out cold. And won't fucking wake up. Despite my gentle squeezing and probing. Since I'm not an active participant of somnophilia, no matter how inticing my sleeping beauty is, spread out on top of me. I decide that it's time to get up and leave her to her much needed rest. Maybe surprise Cammy with a greasy breakfast. The perfect hangover cure. Fuck, she was adorable last night. I grin as the memories play across my mind. She must have removed her clothes in her drunken state at some point throughout the night. My girl was a light weight. Couldn't handle her drink. So fucking cute. As soon as I opened the bedroom door, I was assaulte
