280. Rescue Me
~ JESSE ~
I pressed my foot down on the accelerator and the SUV revved high and rocked, but didn’t budge.
Perfect.
“Fucking idiot!” my brother barked. But he didn’t take that gun off me. “Go check it,” he snapped at the guys in the back.
They muttered, but pushed out of the car.
I leaned back against the back of my seat, trying to relax my shoulders because my entire body hummed with tension as the power tried to shove out of me and I grappled frantically to keep it contained.
At this point I was terrified I’d kill myself if I let it go.

~ CASIMIR ~‘CAZZ, PLEASE! I NEED YOUR HELP.’I was just about to step into the caves when Jesse’s voice rang in the bond—echoing and thin like it swam at me down a long tunnel. But there. And frantic.I froze, grabbing Rake’s arm. He whirled to look at me, but I was already turning away.“Jesse,” I hissed, before shifting and beginning to run, Rake on my heels.I tried to reach her, tried to call for her, begging her to tell me where she was, but it was as if she’d sent that single, lone call, then cut herself off completely.‘What’s going on, Cazz?

~ CASIMIR ~I didn’t know what had happened, but suddenly all of Maya’s insistence about her power made my blood run cold.To my physical eyes she was just there—half-crouched in fear, her face pale, lips slack, and eyes somehow both bright and glazed.I could feel the exhaustion on her. And no wonder. Because my power-wrought senses rang with recognition.She shuddered and I felt her body convulse inside.She was swallowing back power, not letting it release—and it was going to consume her, soul first.

Her body convulsed, and sh

And all of it twisted together and roared out of my chest.I was overwhelmed, clinging to this power by a hairsbreadth, and fucking Cazz wouldn’t listen!But even that was making it all worse.When he stepped up and touched me, my soul sang.Now he stood here, touching me, staring at me with such tenderness, and it made me sick.I inwardly flinched, dying to protect myself from him, even as a part of me wanted nothing more than to t
Slave to the Wolf King 285. The World on a Platter
~ CASIMIR ~As I took hold of that raging ocean of power and my entire existence swelled with it, there was a fleeting thought—my father, snarling, insisting that a true mate would weaken me. As I took in the sheer breadth of the power she'd just thrown at me, the pure, unadulterated wrongness of that statement would have made me laugh if I’d had room to breathe. Instead I filed the bitter denial away to be fully explored at a later date.But there would be no later date if I didn’t quickly figure out how to release this power in a meaningful, controllable way.The ocean rose in a wave, crashing on the shore of me, and I shuddered,
Slave to the Wolf King 286. Shrieking

But the thought of putting any part of myself under his control again made me sick.Yet, I had no choice.And at some point, I had no more energy.Cazz had curled himself around me, his chest to my back. His nose was in my hair, his words whispered in my ear. I fought a battle between my soul—that wanted nothing more than to be held and comforted by him—and my heart and mind, that shrieked alarm.But I knew if I didn’t do something, this power was going to destroy everything.

~ CASIMIR ~That torrent went on and on. I lay there, holding her, shaking my head—shaking all of myself. I was awed by her power.How had she contained it for so long?I could bust the cap off this mountain if I wanted to. But I didn’t.The more I molded the flows, the more I directed them, the easier it became to do so—to use and control them, drawing more and more from her in what seemed to be an endless supply, but eventually, I felt the pressure in her easing.Still, I

~ CASIMIR ~My wolf snarled as the world spun and the whole world seemed to suck in around me, sound only reaching me from the other end of a long tunnel that was too brightly lit.The power had taken too much from me—obviously. I was sitting in the dirt, frustrated and shaking as everyone grew frantic.“Stop,” I hissed, but the words were thick on my tongue. “I’m jus’ tired.”I tipped my head back to find Jesse, because I couldn’t seem to move my eyes properly. She stood over me, her eyes so wide they were white all the way around. I tried to lift a hand to soothe her. “Iss okay. Imma be fine—"Rake was there, pulling her back and away from me even as he scanned
