BrinleyAbruptly, the fierce pain ended!Alpha withdrew his canines. His head jerked back, a look of confusion painted his expression. His chest rose and fell from exertion.Suddenly he got off of me. I breathed a huge sigh of relief to no longer be touching him. He strode across the room and grabbed the liquor bottle again, tossing it back. When he swallowed, he wiped his mouth with the back of his hand, staring at me intently as he muttered under his breath, “It can’t be.”I stood to my feet shakily, adrenaline still coursing through my veins.I knew what the problem was. At least for him.He hadn’t been able to break the bond that Coal and I shared!He’d attacked it with everything he had in him. The bond had shuddered and faltered beneath his assault, but it had held—it remained!Which could only mean one thing...Coal was stronger than him!And Alpha knew it.Suddenly, his head came up and snapped toward the window. His expression twisted into a snarl as he glared at me. “I told
My body reacted on instinct. Several of their strikes found purchase in my flesh, but I was able to hold them off. Their attack was meant to kill, but their faces wore matching expressions of dread.Langdon grunted as he surged forward, throwing strikes hard and fast, one after the other. I blocked each and every one, keeping time with his incredible pace. I worked hard to defend myself, but not hurt them. I didn’t have it in me to harm them. I wasn’t compelled like they were. But the longer it went on, the more tired I grew and the more I realized the horrible truth I had tried to deny—I was just delaying the inevitable.Abruptly, Jax made contact again, his fist striking hard into the side of my face. My head whiplashed to the side. For a moment my vision went black before it cleared again. The hit was hard enough to knock me to one of my knees. Amber took advantage, flying in fast.I didn’t have an option not to hurt her. The only way to stay alive was to strike back and strike bac
BrinleyI shuddered hard, a feeling of ominous foreboding settling over me like a black cloud, oppressive and stifling, blocking out the light of my soul.My mate was rogue!And I would have to kill him... The compulsion for Coal’s death was overwhelming, irresistible. It crashed over me and surged through my veins like a gale wind—my body betraying my heart and my mind. A war I was destined to lose. My Wolf whimpered in my head, confused by the conflicting emotions running through her. She didn’t want to hurt our mate just as much as I didn’t, but we both knew we had no choice.Alpha’s lips curled into an evil smirk, thoroughly enjoying the power play he’d forced on his two sons—sentencing Ryder to death. He had to know there was no way Ryder could overcome Coal. And no way would Coal’s broken heart ever heal if he was forced to kill his own brother.I couldn’t stand to look at Alpha’s face, but I also couldn’t afford to turn away. Silently, I tried to reach Coal with my mind, exten
RyderTears flowed down my face, making silent tracks through the dust on my cheeks. Coal had just left, and I could no longer hold my eyes open. My fingertips trembled as I tried to apply pressure to the saturated rag against my throat to slow down the crimson liquid dribbling out.The scent of blood was intense, metallic and iron. It caused my Wolf’s nose to wrinkle. I focused on breathing and calming my heart rate so the blood wouldn’t come out as fast. Maybe I could last long enough for him to kill our father and return in time to save me. Even as I thought the words, I knew how foolish they were. I had already lost a lot of blood. The flow was not as steady now, but it was only a matter of time. Not enough time.Abruptly, another overpowering scent hit my nose—Aatos!My eyes flew open, darting around wildly. I didn’t see him. Still, my sensitive Wolf nose didn’t lie...Aatos was close. How?! How had he found me? In another second, Aatos came into view, instantly crouching by my s
Apparently, Aatos had had enough because, without warning, he sank his fangs deep into my Wolf’s shoulder on the opposite side he’d marked me. My Wolf howled out his pleasure as Aatos sent violent waves of arousal through his body.I couldn’t think past the carnal sexuality coursing through my system.And then I realized one other thing—not only had Aatos latched onto my Wolf’s shoulder with his fangs, but his broad hand was wrapped around my Wolf’s seriously engorged cock, and he was pumping him fast and hard!My Wolf bucked wildly, but this time he wasn’t trying to get away. Instead, he was pushing his cock harder into the vampire’s hand as Aatos jerked him off.Time stood still.Nothing but pleasure existed as Aatos pushed and pulled his hand, his rhythm fierce and dominant.But just as my Wolf was on the verge of release, Aatos stopped and gripped his ballsac tight...excruciatingly tight. It was pain and pleasure like I had never felt before. My Wolf let out another howl.Aatos’ h
My Wolf purred with satisfaction at making the vampire lose control. Aatos returned the fervency, moving his fingers in my ass harder and faster...so hard, I cried out at the pleasure. My cry was cut off by his relentless lips.Silence reigned as we kissed, biting and licking, sucking each other’s lips. My hand wrapped around his cock, jerking him off, his three fingers buried deep in my ass, pounding me to completion.And then I could take no more. My balls pulled up tight. I cursed loudly, “Fuck yes!” and released, my cock shooting. Aatos’ let go at the same time, grunting loudly, as he added his cum to my belly, hot and thick.I panted to catch my breath. Aatos’ eyes were still wild, locked on mine. He dragged his finger through his cum and brought it to my lips. His tone was low and deep as he commanded, “Taste me.”I opened my mouth, allowing it inside and sucked the salty liquid clean from his finger. My Wolf growled in approval at the taste.Abruptly, a female voice could be he
Aatos took the garment from me and crouched down on the ground, holding it open. I blushed again to be dressed as if I were a small pup.I stepped into the shorts, and he pulled them up over my hips. He started to do the zipper, but I took a step back, grabbing at it quickly, closing the button and zipper. “Thanks...I got it.”I dropped my head as the compulsion shuddered through me again and whispered, “They need help. I don’t trust my father. He already tried to break Coal’s bond, but couldn’t. That means that Coal is the stronger Wolf, but my father fights dirty...and regardless of their bond, Brinley will try to fight Coal as well.”Aatos hesitated and then sighed, “Okay, where are they?”I pointed in the right direction. “Thirty minutes that way.”“What do you want us to do with these?” Savannah motioned toward Langdon, Amber, and Jax. “I’m guessing we can’t heal them. Otherwise, they’re going to want to fight as well?”I nodded my head sadly and met Langdon’s gaze whispering, “I
Before I even had time to ask, Aatos dove down to the ground, somersaulted and came back up in one smooth move, jerking his body to the left to avoid the mass of fur, teeth, and claws whirling around him. In the next second, he was back by our side and thrust his hand out. Something green and gold glittered in his palm. It was a man’s ring, but I didn’t recognize it.Savannah apparently did because she gasped loudly, “No!”Aatos growled at me, his fangs gleaming, “Who does this belong to?”I was taken aback by his feral and clearly deadly tone. I swallowed past the lump in my throat and stammered, “I don’t know...I—I’ve never seen it before.”“Is it possible?” Savannah hissed.Aatos didn’t answer. Instead, he jerked his phone from his pocket and pressed the button. Almost instantly, a male responded. Even though Aatos held the phone to his ear, my Wolf senses allowed me to easily hear the person on the other end, deep and gravelly, “Speak.”Chills ran down my spine. There was somethin
Yes l fell into a deep pit of sleep next to Coal, but the moment i did everything changed, i didn’t know where my subconscious was heading to but I was no longer feeling closer to Coal. At first, it was black with blasts of light coming from every corner and then I sunk deeper into the dream and woke up in the middle of nowhere.I glanced back, over my shoulder and found the wind whistling behind me and picking up the whatever was coming in its way. The long, thick trees wavered and branches snapped left and right. I pushed my hair behind my ears, holding them from blocking my vision.A part of me knew this was a dream but the other part of me didn't have a clue.A forest was stretched ahead of me and it reminded me of the one I was in, the time l saw the creature. The sound of the whistles and the wind speeding around me confirmed my theory. I was standing where the dark creatures found me in the beginning, the same exact spot.Fear immediately flowed through my whole body as l recal
As soon as we were alone Kaden tossed me onto the couch near the bed. I fall back on it and clutched the sides while he began circling around me. My breaths came out quickly as I gathered the scene in front of me.The bed was covered in blood, mostly his blood but not all. There's some of mine on the sheets because of the sharp wood but his blood covers most of it. The wooden stake sat near to the pillow until he grabbed it and brought it to me."You can't stab me. I will die." I tell him.He chuckles at my protest and twirls the stake in his hand before coming behind me. My chest raises and drops as he lowers his head close to mine while the stake remains in his hand."I could stab you, then heal you. You'd feel most of the pain, wouldn't you?" It's not a question, it's a threat.I mask my fear and smile. "It wouldn't be the same since I did stab you in the heart. You can't get anywhere close to mine because then I'd die. Not even your blood would heal me."His face turns into a twis
'Keep running because if I catch you, I'll bite you.'His laughter rang in my ear, and filled me with fear and horror as I ran through the woods on my feet.I've unleashed the monster, and now there was no turning back. He'was chasing me, he found the thrill in it and I don't. The cold gripped me from everywhere. The woods are completely dark, there's no source of light or life, just him and me. Fear instilled inside me as I tried desperately to find a path out of the woods and into the town I've escaped from.I don't even know where it is, to begin with. Nothing is familiar.The woods close in around me, dark, looming trees and crisp, cold air. The darkness is suffocating but I have to find my way back, back into Kaden's house where he can trap me forever.I already know he isn't going to let this go so easily. Forcing me to run across the woods, in the cold night while he chases me and threatens to bite me is only the beginning of his anger. It's only the tip of the iceberg.I stabbe
"Well, you're really not one for morning-after cuddles, are you?" He asked, a frown smeared on his face.Instead of replying, I screamed again, unable to believe that he's here. Right now. Right here. I killed him. I fucking killed him.It doesn't turn to reality until I feel his hand over my mouth, stifling my screams. I struggle against his grip, but it's vain, pointless. He's a lot stronger than me and the fear coursing through me doesn't help either."You really thought a piece of wood could stop me? How amusing." His voice is teasing now, a smirk playing on his lips but I don't take it lightly. There's a dangerous fire flickering in his face.I draw his hand away from my mouth and rushed out of the car to catch my breath. Cold wrapped around me. My chest raised and dropped. I blinked at him as he stepped out. My one hand falls over my hip while the other one is over my mouth. How is he alive? I stabbed him.He was dead.Literally dead."Oh, now you're the one scared." His smirk t
ISABELLA'S POV.I placed the pump back and headed into the store. I was finally free and out of the dark forest. The cashier smiled and waved at me as I entered. Rows of snacks, drinks, and road maps greeted my eyes. My stomach grumbled as I moved in the aisles. I really missed eating them. I didn't see anything in that monster werewolf world.Just staring at some cookies made my stomach to grumble again. I have never felt this hungry, this empty and so thirsty.Without hesitating, I grabbed whatever I could fit into my hands before returning to the cashier.The cashier smiled at me once more but this time I returned a fake smile. I damn hungry. "How has your night been?" The cashier asked while checking out the items in front of him.I sighed, not knowing what answer I should give me.He was trying to be nice to me but I wasn't interested at all. He didn't know what the hell was stressing me and what I passed through within one night.I killed my so called mate. What was worse, he di
My eyes flutter opened to find Kaden, asleep.The moment I saw a big black wolf , I lost conscious immediately. I couldn't help it but still I wasn’t saved because here I was now on his chest resting on it.How the hell did it happen?!I sat up startled then I looked around. It was still night, nearing morning.Currently he looked peaceful , his pink lips kinda open but still I didn’t like him.We are two different people. He is a werewolf and I am a normal person.Nothing of that is going to change. If he thought that sleeping with me will make me feel better , he was a fool.He's still cold, just like he's meant to be and I will never like him.Slowly I slided off the bed, my legs wobbling a little as my body adjusted to the after-effect of fighting with the bitch. I moved softly across the room, wincing as a small wave of pain shooted through my lower body. I clenched my teeth and pressed on.When I looked back, I found kaden still sleeping after all my movements. He's deep asleep
I sat alone on the bed, my legs hanging off the side and my feet barely touching the ground. The night was colder than the day and it was worse because I was alone in the room I didn't want to sleep in , surrounded by an eerie silence and my own thoughts. I tried to sleep, but I couldn't, not here, not again.There's something odd about this room. I don't want to be in here for another day, even another minute.My eyes travelled over the walls and then to the window at the top but there was no escape. After a while I sighed heavily then slipped my feet under the sheets and lay down, contemplating my own life, my situation. Would it have been any different if I didnt tell Alex that I was pregnant. I wouldn't be here by now.Here I was stuck, eyes opened while ,l listened to the forest outside. Everything was cool but my inner part wasn't. Things were strange here. Surprisingly I was no longer feeling the pain and yet I fought with that bitch."Urggh", Thinking about it all, l lost inte
The guards didn't grip my hands as they led me to my prison. I thought they were taking me to the whore house but shockingly this time they decended downstairs.This was the basement.As soon as we reached one of the guards open the cell. I blinked there was no chains in it. It was an empty stone walled room , cold and daunting. There was a chair in the middle, a table in front of it and another chair facing it together with a single lamp in the middle. It seemed like an interrogation room for some sort ."Sit", He simply ordered and l obeyed without uttering anything. I wasn't just thrown in a cell to rot but something else was coming. He stood at the door waiting. Suddenly the door opened and l knew who the hell it was. It was the son of a bitch Kaden , he didn't enter immediately though.I looked at the guard who simply stood at the door waiting then turned and looked at my feet. Stomach pangs were getting stronger. I didn't care about it , l was eagerly waiting for what was coming
Before l could do anything, and completely finish the bitch, I was out of the blue quickly catapulted into the nearest tree. My head slammed against the trunk instantly. My vision went black for a split second and then came back slowly. I gagged from the luck of oxygen and my heart pounded against my chest. Suddenly a huge brown wolf stood in front of me, blocking my way.It didn't allow me to catch my breath before it barred it's canines at me. Menacing , l choked and crawled back to the tree. " Don't do anything to me, I'm not going to kill her", Recalling the way they treated me the last time I escaped , l spoke quickly. " Where did you think you were going?", Before the brown wolf could do anything to me , l heard the voice behind me. It was Mark one of the guards."Am gonna go back", l said quickly. "You can't escape, these woods , the forests are filled up with wolves, they can smell you",He smirked and eyed my body for wounds. I kept quiet feeling stupid. "Did you think that yo
