~ CASIMIR ~

Every instinct in my body screamed about enclosed spaces and unknown enemies as we were ushered through the huge hotel, awash with unrecognized scents, then through the halls to a second elevator that opened directly into a massive suite—larger than my chambers under the mountain—with tall, floor-to-ceiling windows and multiple rooms off a main, central living area.

I had kept several guards with us on the trip, and let some peel off along the route between this place and the rooms we would keep for the night to make certain that we weren’t being set up for an ambush. I’d had to bark at Ryan to slow down so his sister could keep up, which he did reluctantly—but she seemed more irritated than tired when we finally reached the huge suite. Still, I caught her eyes darting and she licked her lips more than once. She was more nervous

    ~ JESSE ~I felt sick. We stood in the long hallway of a wing they’d given us just for the wolves. There were guards stationed where the elevator bays opened and the wing joined the main hallway of the hotel on this floor. And a few more scattered along the hallway, just watching over the females. But we stood in the middle of the bustle of all these women finding rooms, finding bags, and putting on a very plausible show of women who were nervous and trying to settle in after long travel.Probably because it didn’t need to be much of an act.The women would look at me and Cazz, then their eyes would dart nervously to Garret—the Police Chief who had been my father’s boss and comrade

    ~ JESSE ~I didn’t even think.I slapped Garrett’s hand away with a growl of my own at the same time I screamed at Cazz through the bond, “NO!”I wasn’t sure if I accidentally unleashed power, or what happened, but there was a jolt inside me and the word resonated, freezing Cazz in his tracks for a split second, just in time for me to put a finger under Garrett’s nose.“I am the King’s slave, not yours,” I hissed at him, at the same time I babbled at the panting and rippling Cazz through the link.‘You can’t touch him, yo

    ~ CASIMIR ~It was a physical fight not to just shift and kill this sick motherfucker. Especially when he turned to me arrogantly and put himself between me and my mate. I showed him my teeth as I swallowed the growl.“That won’t be necessary—” he started.“Oh, I assure you it is,” I snapped. “You have her with me outside the door, or you don’t have her at all.”Over his shoulder, Jesse looked at me nervously, but she wasn’t the only one who knew how to deal with assholes like this. And the way her chin was up, that spine of steel that I could sense in her sending through the l

Jesse… Jesse, what’s going on? Jesse… FUCKING ANSWER ME BEFORE I BREAK DOWN THIS DOOR.’I blinked and realized Cazz was about to ruin everything, and threw my mind open so he could see what I was seeing, shaking my hands and making myself breathe.‘Cazz, I’m sorry. I think I broke him!’

    ~ JESSE ~The following afternoon, the entire wing of the hotel that we’d been given was bustling with nervous energy. The seamstress and her team had taken a room and were making alterations to all the dresses the women had been given.There were hairdressers, and human make-up artists moving from room to room, polishing all of us until we glowed because we were supposed to be suitable for the richest and most powerful men in the state.And of course, the wolves were stunning. Reeca took my breath away.I’d never seen any of them in make-up, and even though something about it felt off, there was no denying that any of these women could have graced magazine covers, or celebr

Then as I stepped into that lavish bathroom, I caught her rich scent and it hit me what was ahead of us…I had to mark her with my scent.

    ~ CASIMIR ~I caught her when her knees gave, wrapping arms around her middle, under her stomach, propping her up as my breath tore in and out and my chest heaved. I was sweating and had to pray that I wouldn’t sweat through the clothes because there wasn’t time to press another set.“Cazz… dear God…”“The comparison is flattering, but I keep telling you—”She snorted a laugh, then almost slid off the countertop and had to slap a hand to the edge of it to catch herself.There was a moment where my balance was off and hers was gone entirely, and we swayed together, still joined, her giggling, me chuckling, both of us shushing each other. Then I planted my feet and lift

    ~ CASIMIR ~The females were still preparing when I stood at the center of the wing and just allowed the reality to wash over me.Jesse was at my side, but turned away, speaking with Reeca and a couple of the other females. All of them were dressed and polished with the human make up. Though I enjoyed the human fashions, the painted faces made me grim. But I knew that Jesse and that Garrett creature had both emphasized that the men here would expect it, so I left it.I couldn’t deny that Jesse’s make up made her eyes look huge and even more piercing, and certainly drew attention to her lips in a way that made me want to drag her back to privacy. I could understand what it was about this tradition that appealed to the males. But still… I preferred it when I could see my mate’s natural skin.

    ~ 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

    ~ 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

    ~ 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

    ~ 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

His throat bobbed, but his touch was g

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

    ~ 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,

    ~ 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.
