Slave to the Wolf King 16. Time to Breathe
~ JESSE ~Laying there with Cazz’s weight pinning me to the bed, my head was reeling. My insides were at war because half of me was already halfway in love with him. I wanted to hold him to me, keep him there, lay under him and just soak him up like a good smell.I knew—I knew—that I was never going to be the same. And that was scary, because something I had never anticipated was suddenly very clear: Having sex really did affect my feelings.I’d talked to my friends over the years. I’d shaken my head over and over again, baffled about why they were so attached to some douchebag who was inconsistent and insensitive at best—sometimes downright abusive.And they’d always talk about how they wanted him. Couldn’t get enough of him. And how rare that was…I’d been skeptical—naively, as it turned out—that this kind of connection had anything to do with it. I’d never had a man make me feel anything close to what Cazz had just wrung from my body, so I assumed they were just trying to romantici
Slave to the Wolf King 17. The Power
~ JESSE ~Holy shit. It was suddenly hard to breathe. The immensity of his power, of what that meant… of what kind of man it made him was stunning and utterly horrifying.As my head spun with the implications of what that meant, instinctively I pulled the blanket up and over my chest.“Don’t,” he said darkly, reaching out immediately to tug it back down to bare my breasts. I was about to slap his hand away when I remembered our agreement that I would submit, as long as he didn’t use that power on me.That power that could literally make my heart stop?What else was he capable of?I swallowed back the fear—then quickly forgot it when his eyes zeroed in on my breast and he gave a small smile, reaching out to trace the nipple closest to him with a touch so soft I wouldn’t even have felt it if my nipples hadn’t still been hard.“You’re a beautiful woman, Jesse,” he said, as if the fact surprised him, his tone quiet and suggestive, as if his prior anger had simply melted away. Then he fro
Slave to the Wolf King 18. A New Rulebook
~ JESSE ~“Ah. Food,” Cazz said with a sigh, then rolled off the bed and walked towards the door, completely naked.It took a moment to realize it wasn’t a joke, or a ploy, that he was walking towards the door to open it, buck naked, while I lay there in the same state.I yanked the blankets up and over me, praying he wouldn’t see that as defiance when it was obvious he was about to invite other people into the room.“Cazz!” I hissed.“What?” His back and shoulders rippled with strength as he lifted that massive beam out of the brackets holding it across the double doors.“I’m not dressed!”“So?” He glanced at me over his shoulder as he leaned the beam up against the wall behind where the door would open. “Neither am I.”“But—”But then he opened the door and suddenly four women dressed in dark leather pants and white linen shirts walked in carrying a massive tray between them spilling with food—I saw fruit meat, breads, cheeses… like a buffet. Except for two.Ignoring Cazz’s naked bo
Slave to the Wolf King 19. How Did You Know?
~ CASIMIR ~Jesse, my newly deflowered wife was begging.Had I only heard the words, so earnest and needy, I would have thought she was compelled, but my loins stirred because unlike those I had used my power to compel, she was no shrinking worshiper, slavering at my feet, grateful for any crumb I might drop.She stood with a pride that far exceeded her actual strength. And yet… her posture gave no hint of her fragility. Her chin was high. High enough to reveal the bob of her throat that underlined the stink of fear on her. Yet she didn't cower. Didn't throw herself at my feet like the others would. I would not have thought it possible, but somehow she managed to beg with dignity. And her eyes, when they met mine, walked the line between pleading and challenging.Her stubbornness and insolence might have irritated me, but I admired her courage. Of course, it also made it extremely clear that she had no concept of the true depth of my power. None whatsoever.She held the knowledge, but
Slave to the Wolf King 20. The Snack
~ CASIMIR ~Jesse’s frantic insistence gave me a moment’s hesitation. And then her words landed and gave me even greater pause.She'd been sold? I frowned and made a mental note to have Ghere look into her family and see how they might be tangled up with wolves in a plot. While she seemed guileless, we could never be too careful. I didn't remember being told that some of those we took were purchased. That left an itch between my shoulder blades.Then I was distracted from my thoughts because she raised her chin, so even though I was taller, she managed to look down her nose at me.“You don't have to worry about me, Cazz. I'm going to give you whatever you want.” I almost groaned as my power surged again, but she wasn't done. “I'm going to do that, choose to do it, because then you've taken nothing from me. You only get what I give. And when I get out of this hell, I'll still… I'll still be me.”There it was again… the faintest of echoes, a whisper of poisoned claws against my heart.I
Slave to the Wolf King 21. Help Her Thrive - Part 1
~ CASIMIR ~As I walked further from Jesse’s chamber feeling smug, but still a little sweaty, something itched between my shoulder blades. I tapped into the bond, careful to hold myself apart, yet open myself enough to measure her… and to my irritation, discovered her emotional descent becoming more drastic.I’d felt the pang of her desire for me—which was a good sign—but this sudden plunge into fear, while perhaps natural, was frustrating. And as I held her heart on that glowing string between us but kept myself blocked, all too quickly her fear threaded with hints of despair.Already? Already we were back to this… this failure?I wanted to bite something. What had happened? What was she thinking to make her so scared?Far from being the strongest I had found, was she going to fail me even faster than the others?I stopped in the middle of the corridor, turning to look over my shoulder in the direction I’d come from, suddenly tempted to return to her, a combination of frustration and
Slave to the Wolf King 22. Help her Thrive - Part 2
~ CASIMIR ~“I need to know if you’ve discovered any more hints about the human female fertility,” I muttered a few minutes later to Ghere as I picked through the strange items spread all over his desk.He watched me cautiously. “We discussed it, Cazz. I told you that their emotional and mental state is incredibly central to their likelihood to conceive—and to sustaining the pregnancy also.”“Yes, yes,” I muttered, flapping a hand at him impatiently as I turned away from the detritus on the desk to face him.His brows were high and he eyed me warily. He’d been shocked when I walked in. I supposed it wasn’t common for me to come all the way down to his study cave under the Palace. But after that delicious taking, I’d needed to move to wake my mind back up. So, I’d come to him rather than linking to summon him.“It’s all well and good to speak of emotional and mental health. But how do we improve our chances after the last two fuck-ups?” I muttered.Ghere scratched the back of his neck.
Slave to the Wolf King 23. The Endless Dark
~ JESSE ~Watching a naked Cazz walk away from me was a feast for the eyes. His body was perfect—broad, thick shoulders and chest, narrowing to a muscled and lean waist, an ass you could bounce a dime off of, flawless skin and perfectly cut lines… everywhere.The thrill of watching the muscles on his back roll and twitch as he walked, my sense of the sheer masculine power of him as he moved away from me, distracted me for a moment from the sinking feeling that started as soon as he turned to go.But then he disappeared out of the room.I stared at the door for a minute, suddenly feeling sick as I turned that last conversation over in my mind.He’d agreed to leave the other women alone, which was a huge relief. But it also seemed like he believed it wouldn’t be a permanent arrangement. My head spun with images of laying alone in the dark while my husband had sex with someone else…I wanted to throw up.I wanted to believe he really would wait until I told him he could—which I’d never d

Slave to the Wolf King EPILOGUE - Part 4
~ CASIMIR ~I was pretty sure if I didn’t get inside her, I was going to eat her alive.Scooting with her in my lap, still straddling me, I got her so both my knees and her back were flat against the wall. Then I flipped open the wide, leather cuffs that had been secured directly to the wall and first lifted one of her hands, to strap it in so her hand was levered above her shoulder, but with her arm comfortably bent so she could relax. Then I did the same with her other hand on the other side.So I straddled the banana-seat, while she straddled me and her hands were secured to the wall behind her.Her breasts rose and fell with her heavy breathing, and her eyes were bright with desire.Overwhelmed again with how much thought she’d put into this, for a moment I just took her face in my hands and kissed her. But that drew us together—my cock pressing against her, and I couldn’t resist rolling my hips, teasing
Slave to the Wolf King EPILOGUE – Part 3
~ CASIMIR ~“I made a new Den,” Jesse whispered, her hands over her mouth, staring up at me—those beautiful eyes wide, but also a little fearful. “I know it’s not the same, but I got Ghere to help me because he remembered what things you’d had before and… I hope you like it.”Like it? Was she serious?My heart was slamming against my ribs, and I was having trouble breathing.The room seemed smaller than I remembered because the walls were painted a dull black. But the tighter space than what I’d had down next to the Den just made it feel more intimate.There were two lamps, one on each end, and a chandelier high above. Candles everywhere, though she hadn’t lit mo

~ JESSE ~It was Cazz’s turn to plan the monthly date. But I was humming about this one. Things were finally ready, and impossibly, Ghere had helped me successfully pull off the surprise. But I still had to figure out how to get Cazz there without ruining it.He’d taken me out to the meadow again—my favorite date. Though we’d enjoyed several others now too—and we’d just finished eating. He was leaning back against the cab of the truck, looking out at the city lights, his brows a little heavy.“What are you thinking about?” I asked him, though I had a hunch.He had his arm around me and I was leaning on his shoulder. His hand trailed up and
Slave to the Wolf King EPILOGUE (1 Year Later) Part 1
~ CASIMIR ~I came out of the bathing room after a long bath rubbing my hair with a towel, to find my mate standing in the middle of the chamber with her arms folded and looking sternly at my daughter, who sat on the floor in nothing but a diaper, with her chubby legs straight out. She, too, had her arms folded and her lips pursed in the perfect reflection of her mother.The two glared at each other and half my heart went cold, while the other half wanted to splutter with laughter.“Abigail, I have told you—”“No!”Our daughter could only get her tongue around a few words so far, but
Slave to the Wolf King 398. See Me
~ JESSE (a few weeks later) ~I had just finished nursing Abigail and was holding her on my lap while Reeca sat with me on the couch.Her eyes were bright and she was beginning to smile, so I was tickling her cheeks to see if I could get her to do it. But she was sleepy because she’d just eaten and only yawned and cooed.“She’s a very calm baby,” Reeca commented from the other end of the couch, smiling. She loved babies, and had been so helpful when I was tired—and just for reassurance for me.She was a calm presence in any room, and with Abigail, she showed a lot of delight and joy that she seemed to stifle in other areas of her life.“Reeca,” I said carefully, because I’d b

~ JESSE ~I was too tired to do more than lift my hands to his neck, so I just curled my face into his chest and let him settle us into the chair, cradled in his arms with my ass in his lap.When he’d sat, I had my head resting on his shoulder and my body curled in his arms.“Do you hurt?” he asked quickly.“No, just tired, like I said.”I felt him relax a little then and another chill started in my blood.“Cazz… what’s happened?” I asked quietly.He turned his head to meet my eyes and lifted his hand to comb hair back from my face. His throat bobbed, but his touch was g
Slave to the Wolf King 396. Peace at Last – Part 1
~ JESSE (Hours later) ~My dreams were disturbing—my body in pain, screams of terror, darkness, the floor shaking, the mountain falling, humans fleeing and wolves…I tried to break free, tried desperately to open my eyes and to speak, because I knew I was asleep. But all I did was fade… in and out. The nightmares, or nothing.And through it all, his voice.“Heal… live.”My heart ached. My body hurt. My chest didn’t want to expand. It was as if my flesh fought his words, and I didn’t understand.But finally, the dreams faded and I could hear a heartbeat. Little, and quick. And feel warm flesh. And the breath of my m
Slave to the Wolf King 395. Still Here
~ CASIMIR ~I felt the moment the power went out of Jesse. The entire mountain felt it.I howled with triumph and shifted, sprinting towards the room, ecstatic when there was no sense of Maya gripping my mind or stealing anything from me. But of course, there was no power left for her to steal.I prayed and pleaded and ran, Rory and the others coming in my wake. And the moment I broke through that door in my wolf—the only power left to me anymore—everything slowed. Though my body whipped and my mind was singularly focused, it was as if everything happened in slow motion.I caught a bare glimpse of Jesse on the bed, and at first my heart leaped. She was moving, awake, aware,
Slave to the Wolf King 394. The Arrival
~ JESSE ~Maya had me sitting up in the bed, curled forward, gripping my knees. Reeca on one side, helping prop me up, a guard on the other.My body was nothing but a conduit for pain. Wave after wave, my entire lower body condensing, contracting, pushing to get this baby out. I could barely think.Cazz was there, so quiet, so distant, but there, calling his encouragement and pushing love at me through the bond.There was a moment when I thought I wouldn’t make it, when I thought my body would give and I would just drift away.But then I caught Maya smiling. Leaning forward between my legs, reaching, grasping, for
