Cora twitched but she didn’t wake up.

There was a damp spot on my shirt from her drool. She gripped my shirt tighter as she rubbed her cheek against my shirt.

I held my breath and waited. She didn’t wake up from another nightmare but something in her dreams was troubling her.

Just as I blew out a slow breath, Cora stirred again, digging her knee into my crotch.

I winced and reached down to grip her knee so I could pull her leg higher up. The last thing I needed was to be kneed in the balls when she jerked awake.

Ryder sighed behind Cora. “It’s raining.”

“Where were you planning on taking her?” I asked him.

“The waterfall.”

I frowned up at the ceiling. “How were you planning on getting there?”

“The bikes.”

“Cora can’t drive a car, Ryder. What makes you think she can drive a dirt bike?”

He remained silent long enough for me to realize that he hadn’t thought things through.

I had no problem with Ryder pursuing his relationship with Cora. After all the shit he had been

    Werewolf anatomy. Female: A female’s werewolf anatomy is the same as a female’s human anatomy, BUT and I put emphasis on the but. Although they look the same, some body parts function differently. A female has the ability to control her ovaries which means that she has the ability to choose when she gets pregnant.My eyes snapped up. “Can your females really do that? Control when they get pregnant?”Keiran’s eyes flashed black for a second before it turned back to normal. “Yes,” he growled. “It’s a blessing and a curse.”I glanced over at Axel lounging on the couch with a book. He looked completely focused on what he was reading, but I knew he could probably hear us. Ryder stood by the sink, washing the dishes. I had offered to help him but he had declined my help. Keiran had then suggested that we get started with my homework. I leaned closer to Keiran. “I can’t do that,” I whispered. “I know.” Keiran smiled at me. “Which is why there won’t be any sex until you’re ready. And when

    Why did he insist on coming?I glanced over at Axel with a frown. He never traveled anywhere during the day, he never took that risk. As he had said earlier, the sun could come out any second. Axel had taken precautions just in case, but I wasn’t sure if it would do him any good. The windows were tinted so that at least offered some protection. “Idiot,” I muttered under my breath. Axel didn’t stir. I frowned at the road. Was he sleeping? If he was I was going to kick his ass because it meant that we couldn’t leave him alone in the state. “Did you have other plans?” Cora asked softly. I glanced at her. “No. Why are you asking?”“It looks like you’re mad that we have to go into town,” she said softly. “I’m pissed at the weather,” I told her. “I wanted to take you up to the waterfall so we could spend some time together.” “Oh.” She swallowed loudly.“I want to know everything about you, Cora.”She shifted in the seat. Reaching down, I placed my hand on her thigh and squeezed her

    It was hard to read Axel’s expression.The guy stood next to me with a basket full of pads, and the sunglasses he wore were too dark to see his eyes.Was he embarrassed? Should I take the basket from him?I bit my lip as my eyes darted around. There were a lot of people standing in line for the pharmacy.A gasp fell from my lips when Axel wrapped an arm around my waist and suddenly jerked me against the front of his body. His head lowered until his warm breath fanned the side of my neck.“The night we found you,” he whispered. “It was raining, but there was a scent that clung to your skin. He was the one that dumped you in the woods. Do you see him?”Gripping his shirt, I glanced around. There were no familiar faces at all. I couldn’t even see Ryder.“See anyone?”I tilted my head back to look up at him. “No.”My eyes dropped to his lips which were inches from mine. Was his kiss going to feel the same as Keiran’s?His lips twitched. Leaning down, he brushed his lips softly against min

    “Pick up! Pick up! Pick up!” I shifted gears and jerked the wheel to the left. A car honked behind me, but I ignored it as I pressed my foot down. “Ryder?”“They fucking took her,” I growled. “They have Axel too.”“Who?” “I don’t exactly know who but it’s someone from Rowan’s pack.”Keiran muttered a few curses. “Where did they take her?”“Some human saw them load Cora into a black SUV. Nobody saw anything. They headed east,” I told him. “I haven’t spotted them yet.”Keiran was silent for a few minutes but I could hear him moving. “There’s woods surrounding the mall, isn’t there?” “You think they took her there?” “Humans are too scared to enter the forest. It’s also a great place to hide a body.”Growling, I hit the brakes and then made a U-turn to head back in the direction of the mall. “I’m on my way. If you find them, don’t do anything stupid.”I ended the call. Was he expecting me to just stand back and watch them hurt her? I didn’t fucking care who they were, if they touc

    “Scream.”My body jerked, eyes snapping open. “It’s okay. You’re okay.” The arm around my waist tightened, pulling my body back against his. “We’re home.”I glanced around, taking everything in. We were back in my bedroom and it still looked the same as it had when I left. Swallowing, I raised a shaky hand to my neck and pressed it to the spot that was still throbbing. “I healed you,” Axel explained. “You bit me,” I whispered. He was silent for a few seconds. “Yes.”I scooted forward, making his arm slip away. Turning onto my back, I hesitated a moment more before I turned onto my side to face him. His eyes darted over my face and then dropped down to my neck where his eyes lingered for a few seconds and then snapped up to mine.“You fed from me.”“Yes,” he answered after a few seconds of hesitation. “I tried not to resist.”“Do you always find it hard to control yourself?” I asked him. Axel’s lips twitched. “No. I usually have better control.”My eyes dropped to his lips. Lips

    A lot of packs had their own dynamics and I respected that, but I couldn’t understand how they would want someone like the boy in front of me as their alpha. He was pathetic. Dean and Rowan were a lot alike when it came to personalities. Both were pathetic, liars and too scared to stand up and take responsibility for their mistakes. “My father’s going to kill you,” he growled, flashing his canines at me. I tilted my head to the side as I watched him. The bars were made of metal mixed with a healthy amount of Wolfs-bane and the idiot had learned it the hard way. He should have been able to smell it but he either didn’t or he was too agitated to take in his surroundings. Didn’t blame him. Axel entered the room with the smell of Cora’s arousal still clinging to his skin. I wanted to know what they had done. If she had given her consent for things to go so far, but I didn’t want to ask questions with the bastard within hearing. “Let me go!” He made the mistake of gripping the bar

    My Mom had been the one to home-school me. After everything Blue showed me and what we talked about, I realized how much my Mom hadn’t taught me when it came to sex-ed. She had explained the human version of how babies were made. Maybe she had been hoping that one day I would marry a human. I had been expecting that too, but it was clear that my life was meant to take a different path. A scoff fell from my lips. Who would have thought I would be blessed with three mates, or was it a curse?I touched the bruise on the side of my face and I stared at my reflection in the mirror. Blue had left a few minutes ago after promising to buy me some toys for my birthday. She had surprisingly not questioned me on the bruises which made me believe that the whole pack already knew what happened with Dean. Letting out a sigh, I finished tying my hair and then made my way out of my bedroom. The last thing I wanted was to see Keiran after what he walked in on, but I couldn’t hide in my room fo

    It felt like the air had been knocked from my lungs. I never expected him to utter those words. If a mate was so rare, why would someone kill their own mate?Was she not what he wanted so he killed her? I shook the thought from my mind and focused my attention back on Keiran. “Laura was manipulative and selfish. She wanted things done her way or not at all,” Keiran said softly. “When we met…she was shy or so she pretended to be. The more I got to know her, the more her true colors started showing.”“So she lied about who she really was?” I questioned. Keiran nodded. He stared at me for a few seconds before he leaned down. There was the sound of keys jiggling, and a moment later, a drawer opened and then closed. Standing, he walked around the desk and took a seat opposite me again. He hesitated a few seconds before he held out a photo album. “I loved her,” he said softly. “But I had to make a choice. I tried talking to her, changing things. For a while, I even pretended to be some

    I was hot, sweaty, and sticky between my legs. My body ached. Everything hurt from my arms down to my legs. It felt like I had been exercising nonstop. Groaning, I turned around and rolled straight into another body. Warm sweaty skin brushed mine. I sucked in a breath and winced at the scent that filled my nostrils. Our scents were combined and it was my new favourite smell. Except I didn’t care much for the lingering scent of sex that filled the room. A low groan made my stomach clench. There was a rustle of sheets as the body next to mine moved. I forced my tired eyes open and blinked a few times to clear my blurry vision. The bed dipped behind me and a second later, someone gripped my hip. I turned my head and frowned at the man hovering above me. Axel smiled as he leaned over me. Biting my lip, I slowly turned onto my back. “Hey, sweetling. How are you feeling?”I swallowed a few times before I answered him. “Tired and dirty,” I croaked. His smile widened. “I ran you a

    My beast wanted out. He couldn’t understand why we were downstairs dealing with them when we should be upstairs next to our mate who needed us. All he cared about was her and not the danger she was currently in. We needed to protect her. We needed to make sure that we were going to be safe when her full heat hit. I studied Xan with my brows dipped into a frown. We were the only ones who had seen Cora shift. Nobody else knew about it. Yet, somehow he knew about her. “How do you know about Cora?” Ryder asked the question before I could. Xan shifted in his chair but his focus was on Axel. I frowned at my brother. It would be easy for him to get the answers we needed. I hated how it was done, but it was effective. “She called to me,” Xan said softly. “Don’t look at me like that. I’m not crazy. She called to you the same way she called to me. You found her, didn’t you?”Dread flooded me. “Is…” I sucked in a breath and blew it out. “Is she your mate?”His eyes darted between the three

    I fucked up…again. There was nothing worse than finding out that your mate was almost attacked by a rogue in our own territory and that it had been well-planned. Cora’s safety had been moved to the top of the list. There was no doubt that Dean was behind everything, but we needed evidence and that was something we didn’t have enough of. A sigh fell from my lips. Leaning forward, I picked up the tablet and studied the pictures Lucas had sent an hour ago. The council could easily dismiss it. I tensed when a scent filled my nostrils. A moment later, Keiran rounded the corner and froze when our eyes locked. Pursing his lips, he walked over to the fridge and grabbed water.As discreetly as possible, I sucked in another breath. Unfortunately, it didn’t go unnoticed by Keiran. Walking to the other side of the table, he pulled a chair out and took a seat. The tension rose the longer the silence stretched between us. Keiran suddenly tilted his head to the side.My eyes instantly locked

    Keiran pulled back and then pushed forward again, entering me a few inches more with every thrust. The pain disappeared with every movement, leaving pleasure in its place. He paused when he was fully inside me. Lowering more of his weight on top of me, he slipped his hands into my hair and lowered his lips to mine. For a moment I stayed unmoving, unsure of what to do. But then I stopped thinking about doing it wrong and followed my instincts. I wrapped my legs around his hips as high I could and dug my heels into his beefy ass. My hands slipped over his shoulders and down his back.Keiran groaned, back arching when I scraped my nails against his skin. Breaking the kiss, he pressed his lips to the corner of my mouth and then raised his head to look at me. He pulled his hips back and thrust forward. “Oh.” “Still hurt?” he questioned.I shook my head, unable to utter a word. The pain was gone and in its place, there was only pleasure. The air locked in my throat when Keiran start

    I expected pain.The pain I felt when that metal closed around my leg was still branded in my mind. It wasn’t something I was easily going to forget. The pain and the sight of bone sticking through the skin. But there was no pain when I turned onto my back. I hesitated a moment and then slowly moved my foot. There were no sharp pains shooting up my legs.Swallowing, I sat up and threw the sheets aside. My eyes locked on my leg. It was almost like it never happened. If the memories in my head weren’t as clear as day, I would’ve thought it had all been a nightmare. It would definitely explain why Kelsey fought the rogue. I was sure that if it happened, she would’ve chosen to run away instead of staying to protect me.Shaking the thoughts away, I finally focused on my surroundings. The bedroom was familiar and so was the scent that clung to me and the sheets. Keiran’s bathroom was right across the bed. He didn’t bother closing the door when he started the shower. I listened to the

    Adrenaline still ran through me. I was shaking and fighting to keep myself in control. Swallowing, I focused my attention on Cora’s leg. “Broken bone,” the cat muttered. “We need to reset it before she starts healing.”He raised his head to look at me. My eyes narrowed but the guy didn’t even flinch when I hissed at him. “Go check on her,” I ordered, nodding towards Kelsey. The cat didn’t move. He gripped Cora’s legs, hesitated a second, and then set the bone. A pained sound fell from her lips, but she didn’t wake up. “Now feed her some of your blood,” he said softly. His eyes caught mine as he stood and moved over to Kelsey. I made sure that my body hid what I was doing. Slicing my palm with a claw, I held my hand over Cora’s leg and let my blood drip onto the wound. When I stopped bleeding, I rubbed the blood into her wound. Cora whimpered. I have her, I told Keiran. How many rogues?One. I slipped my arms under Cora and pulled her to my chest. He’s dead. “Hey sweetling

    The fresh air felt good. My eyes darted around, taking everything in. Sun rays peeked through the thick leaves of the tree, warming some parts of my skin as I walked. At some point, I spotted a family of rabbits. Curiosity made me follow them until they suddenly disappeared. Letting out a sigh, I stopped and tilted my head back to stare at the canopy of leaves. I couldn’t hear any birds singing which was strange. I glanced around again and spotted a footpath. After hesitating for a few seconds, I headed in that direction. Twigs snapped underneath my feet as I walked. It was the only sound aside from my breathing. The path ended at a clearing. Four big rocks were in the middle, leaning against each other. They were surrounded by green grass with some yellow flowers here and there. Sucking in a deep breath, I carefully made my way over to the rocks. I studied every inch of it to make sure that there weren’t any spiders or other bugs lingering about. Once I was sure that there were

    My eyelids were heavy but I forced them open. I blinked at the unfamiliar ceiling until the memories of last night returned. I had fallen asleep on Keiran’s lap and he had carried me to bed sometime later. Turning onto my side, I reached for my phone on the nightstand and frowned when my fingers brushed nothing. I rubbed the sleep from my eyes and pushed myself up onto an elbow to search for my phone. Realization slowly dawned on me. I wasn’t in my bedroom. A glance over my shoulder revealed Keiran fast asleep in the bed next to me. My heart started beating faster as I turned around to face him. He was asleep on his stomach, his face turned away from me, and one arm underneath his pillow. My eyes darted over him and locked on the dark birthmark on his shoulder blade. Reaching up, I traced the mark with my fingertips. Keiran stirred. I jerked my hand away and clutched it to my chest. Licking my lips, I waited for him to wake up, but he didn’t. Scooting closer, I leaned up on

    Ryder never returned home and when I asked Keiran about it, he told me that he was probably staying at the pack house. I understood that he probably needed space, but I was hoping to talk to him so we could clear things up. His reaction towards Axel and what we did confused me. He was the one who bought boxes of condoms. Was he expecting me to only have sex with him? Letting out a sigh, I rolled onto my back and stared up at the ceiling. I reached out blindly to grab my phone from the nightstand. Keiran had surprised me when he gave it to me the other day. I wasn’t bothered about not having a phone. There was nobody for me to call since my parents were dead and I had no friends. Except for Blue. And I had my mates now. Keiran had already saved their numbers for me. He even added Blue’s number. I blinked rapidly at the sudden glare of the screen. Once I turned the brightness down a little, I pulled up Ryder’s number. My fingers hovered over the keyboard. In the end, I settled f
