RECKLESS HEARTS HEIRS OF THE TRIQUETRA - BOOK 1~ MILENA ~The dog won’t stop barking. Slamming itself against the metal chain link fence outside in the alleyway, as if desperate to escape from what is to come. I could shut the window to block it out, but the heat is unbearable. It feels like the walls are closing in on this already suffocating place.The dog’s owner is yelling at it again. Telling it to shut up, as if that is going to help. It won’t. It never does. He should know that by now.I glance at the calendar on the wall opposite me. From here I can’t see the words, but the red cross that's slashed over today says enough.It’s time.I kick off the thin sheet and take the three steps to the adjoining shower room. The light buzzes when I flick the switch. The mirror hanging right above the toilet is cracked. A tiny sink hangs off the wall beside it. Stepping under the rusted metal shower head, I turn it on. Cold water trickles out weakly as I stand under it, letting it numb ev

~ ZION ~“Zion, is it true you changed Tiana’s birthday location?” I look up as my twin sister enters, concern in her large grey eyes. I turn my attention back to my computer screen and continue working. “If it wasn’t true, Sia, you wouldn’t have been informed.” She sighs. “Fair point. Is Roman around? He said you had some jobs for him.” I cock a brow and sit back in my seat. “Your mate will be there. I may be a workaholic, Sia, but I wouldn’t keep him from his daughter’s birthday.”“Hey, I know that, I was just asking. I do hope you will be there too. She’s turning 5, that’s a big number.”“I will be,” I promise, glancing up at her. She sighs and nods. “Good. You work too hard, Zion.”“There’s a lot to do, you know how things are getting worse for our kind. Bullying at schools, workplaces, and more.” My mood darkens and I frown slightly. “I know that face. Zion…”“Don’t worry about me Sia, focus on yourself.”“In other words, don’t butt into your business? Zion, you have made en

~ ZION ~“We understand that, that is not what I meant,” Dimitri says quietly, lowering his head.“It’s deadly to speak before thinking, you know that,” I reply emotionlessly, taking another drag on my cigarette.“So, what’s the plan? We have nothing on their location yet, do we?”“The boss is working on it. He’s the best. He’ll get it done,” I say firmly.“Is he here today?”“He is, but he is busy with other affairs. He’ll be informed of everything we discuss today,” I confirm.There’s silence in the room. “There are rumours that they’re creating a weapon that could kill all werewolf kind,” Cole says quietly.I look across at all seven of them and, leaning forward, pour myself a glass of bourbon. “It’s not just a rumour. There’s enough intel gathered to confirm they are doing something up in St Jacobs’ Cathedral on the western side of the Green Valley River. We just need a way to get inside and take a look for ourselves. We’ll work on something, leave that to me. What’s happening wit

~ MILENA ~Irritation flashes through me as the car comes ever closer. As predicted it would.I’m waiting for the moment Zion’s car that he no longer has control over dangerously drives down this one-way road, and I’ll be here, waiting to pull out in front of him.I have to time it just right. If he hits my car at that speed, I’m the one who will suffer, not him. He’s a werewolf, he’s physically stronger.Now.I turn my car out onto the road, but from his point of view, he wouldn’t have seen I was waiting on standby.Nine seconds until impact…Five…I see his car swerve and I turn my own steering in the other direction, bracing for impact as my car slams into one of the trees lining the road. The windscreen shatters and my airbag bursts out, knocking me back into my seat, and my head spins violently.Fuck.My entire body is jarring with pain. I hear the sound of an even louder crash and struggle to look through the window. My neck hurts…I glance at the passenger seat where a birthday

~ ZION ~Not this time.I raise my gun, pressing it to her forehead roughly. She stumbles backwards trying to put space between us, but with her injured leg she’s not as slick and I almost reach out to steady her, then remind myself who she is.She is one of them.And she’s here for a reason.Do they know of our past and was she placed before me to be my end? I know I’ve rustled feathers. The Arkan has always had a target on my back, but I am untouchable. Is this a new motive?Is that how low they will go? How low will she go?“I assure you I am not the man I was seven years ago.”She smiles, that gorgeous dangerous smile that I knew would be my ruin… but not in the way she ended up being.Her hair is a little longer. She always complained about how annoying it was to handle, but I always liked it… She hasn’t changed, simply became even more of a catch.I smirk humourlessly as she continues to stare at me challengingly, as if she really thinks I won’t do it.“Shoot then,” she whispers,

~ MILENA ~My eyes open, my vision blurry. I rub my eyes. I know I’m in a bed. It feels familiar, and for a moment I wonder if I’m back at my place but… my bed isn’t this large or comfortable.I sit up and look around, my heart hammering as realisation settles in. I know why it feels so… homely.This was our place, where we lived… together.I feel as if I’ve been punched in the gut. What kind of sick joke is he playing? Why did he bring me here?I push off the bedsheet, gritting my teeth at the pain in my thigh and stagger out of bed quietly. I’m about to storm from the room but I’m unable to move when I spot a black gown draped over the large armchair, a book lying open face down on it.My heart begins hammering as I spin around. His jacket still remains on the end of the bed. The shattered mirror is still there. My makeup, our photos…What kind of sick joke is this!Everything is just how we left it that night, aside from the glass on the floor and those pictures. The rest is exactly
