*Barbara*‘What?!’That’s the reaction I’m getting in my head from Alpha Kane now that he has finally answered me again.‘I know you heard me,’ I say. It was starting to piss me off waiting to hear from him, so my patience was running thin. He’s supposed to fucking rescue me! ‘It’s a mind-link, not
I lay back down in my floor indents and close my eyes, listening in for a while to see if they say anything that can be useful to me.****Rose*The door to the secret compartment has just closed and King Gene and Beta Adam came storming into my room. I pull my blankets up over me a bit, trying to h
*Adam* “My mission?” I repeat. I can’t believe that he’s saying that right now. I don’t know what to do. I can only think of one person who can help me at this moment, and thankfully she is quick to answer on the mind-link. “Shelby?” “Yes, dear?” she says. “Get into Rose’s room now!” I know that
*Mark* Our search for Eli is going to have to wait a bit longer since Reece and I are a bit… busy. Both Kane’s and Stephen’s warriors are closer than we’d thought, and both of our armies are requesting our advice since we’re being attacked on two fronts. I’m not worried about Stephen’s army since
At that last sentence, I can feel Cora tremble a little beside me, but I pretend not to notice. Reece and Trevor run up beside us. ‘They’re retreating,’ says Trevor. I nod in answer and talk to Reece privately in our heads. ‘She’s definitely a spy,’ I tell him. ‘I know,’ he says. ‘And I liked tha
*Tristan* “There he is!” I hear King Gene bellow the statement as Kelly and I are standing in the library discussing the situation with Cora. She’s just told me that Cora is telling everyone she’s from my pack, but I’ve never met the woman before. I can’t even stop to process that information or
“Oh, thank the Moon Goddess!” I blurt. “That’s great. But you should know that while I was king I made it a law that if anyone causes any harm to Rose or her children, that person would immediately be put to death by being drawn and quartered, burned at the stake, and skinned alive, all at the same
*Morris* If I’m being honest with myself, I have to say that I’m pretty intimidated here in the castle. When I was back in my own pack lands, everyone treated me like I was a king. I was from the best family in the pack, and everyone respected me. But then I came here and saw what great shape warr
I look at Shelby. “Shelby… why?” She looks like she’s about to burst, and she finally spits it out. “Because I’m pregnant!” My eyes go wide, and I want to grab her and jump up and down, but I don’t want to squish Reeva, so I do a milder equivalent of that, which involves one arm and bouncing more
Rose It feels strange going back to Castle Dark Forest, and it’s going to feel even weirder being there again. It’s been so long since I first arrived there for the stupid contest… well, I guess without that contest, I would have never met my Alphas, so I suppose I won’t call it stupid anymore. I
Eli seems only half-convinced, and once Kelly and this guy are finally separated, he clears his throat.“I’m going to need the name of the guy who just sucked face with my sister,” he says firmly. “And I need to know where you’re from, and whether you have a criminal record, and—”Kelly slaps Eli’s
RoseI can’t believe how much the Goddess has blessed me. I remember all the times I was hunched over on the floor of the sewage plant trying to force myself to breathe through my mouth to avoid the stench. It didn’t work very well. I also remember all those lonely nights in my high school years whe
After a moment, I remember and quickly free him from the rest of his clothes. He pulls my nightgown over my head and tosses it exactly where he thought it should go and then lays me on the bed, All I’m wearing now is a tiny red thong. He stands at the foot of the bed and takes me in. “Damn,” he mur
Mark It’s my turn to spend the night with Rose, and I can hardly wait. It is a little odd being in this position, sharing my mate with four other men, but now that we have our situation settled, I realize I wouldn’t want it any other way. I’m carrying flowers as I go into her room. I think she’s p
“No, little flower,” says Tristan.The smile on his face and twinkle in his eye made my heart skip a beat.“He’s not allowed anywhere near our precious little pups,” he clarifies. “Just the diapers. Dirty diapers, all day long… that’s his new job! We’ll watch him every second.”“But you don’t have t
RoseI love spending time out in the garden, and now I’m doing it with four little bundles of joy. I’ve heard that expression so many times, but now that I’m a mother, I really understand just how much joy those little bundles can bring. And with all the fear of losing them that I’ve experienced ove
“No.” Alpha Alice crosses her hands across her chest. “I’m staying out of this. If these Alphas want to take you, so be it. I know how the contest was supposed to go, and if one of them had a male baby, then that will be the next Alpha King. I’m not getting on their bad side.”“Appalling!” I shout.
