He let go of my hand after we had walked a distance and turned to me. His eyes narrowed, and his mouth upturned in a frown. “What the hell were you doing back there? Arguing with my gamma like a kid? Are you for real, Alex?”Oh, here comes the tongue-lashing. I should have known he was only waiting until we were out of Pink's earshot to give me an earful.“I won't do it again,” I promised, lowering my gaze. “You won't?” He sounded sceptical. “Of course. You have my words. I will always be on my best behaviour with you, unless….” “Unless what?”I looked up, shaking my head with a forced smile on my lips. “Nothing.”There was no need to tell him I would do more than argue should anyone stand between us. He didn't need to know that. “It better be nothing,” he gritted out through clenched teeth, with his suspicious gaze still on my face. He stared at me for a long time before he let out a sigh. “So, what next? What are we doing?”I glanced towards the house Max told us about. Just lik

I joined the attack, taking down the men with ease. As the fight intensified, Alex grabbed my arm, pulling me close. “Stay behind me!” he yelled, his voice husky with adrenaline.I nodded, loving every moment of this. It was the first time someone had ever tried to protect me, and I loved it. As long as it was Aithan, I would do anything.I couldn't help sneaking glances at him, though. His smooth movements, the way his shirt clung to his sweat-drenched skin… it was all so incredibly sexy. Have I told you Red is a good colour for him? Makes me want to see him in red lingerie, and a red choker, with red cuffs and…Fuck, Alex. This isn't the freaking time to be thinking of something like this! One attacker lunged at us, and Aithan dispatched him with a swift kick. As the man crumpled to the ground, he turned to me, his eyes blazing with excitement.“You okay?” he mouthed, his chest heaving as his eyes returned to the blue I fell irrevocably in love with.I nodded, barely keeping the s

I turned my back to them, but it didn't help, so I had to focus on them once more. I strode over to the bed and plopped down on it, glaring at my lover. I didn't like how close he was to that bastard, but I knew I couldn't do anything. He was set on doing whatever the hell he wanted. Maximo gulped. “Please,” he begged. I had to walk around them, so I could see his expression. Before then, it was Aithan's that I was looking at.My lover had this mad glint in his eyes, like someone who was having fun after abstaining from it for a very long time. “Why? Don't you like my hand on you?” Aithan rubbed. Funny enough, the damned man got a boner! Like he was aroused despite the danger lurking. I tugged hard on my hair, resisting the urge to punch the living daylight out of him. “Aithan, do you need to go this far?” I asked my question more of a plea. I needed him to know how difficult it was for me to keep my fists to myself, and how eager I was to deliver a punch to the bastard's face. “

AITHAN “I was sent by Mr Marcus De Luca.”I froze at the mention of Alex's father's name. Before I could even react, Alex had reached for Maximo's side. He punched him hard on the jaw and I heard a bone snap. “You sick bastard! Why did you mention my father?!”Stunned, I sat on the floor and watched them, processing the news I'd just had. It came like a stray bullet, hitting me unexpectedly.“He was the one who sent me to eliminate Viktor's son,” Maximo said once more. “If you doubt me, you can check through our communication logs. At first, I didn't know he was the one until our meeting a month ago. He was angry all my attempts didn't work and threatened to kill me if I didn't finish the task.”“You better be saying the fucking truth!” Alex threw him down on the floor and searched his pocket for the phone. His hands shook as he swiped it up. Maximo didn't even put a lock code on it. “He…” Alex's hands trembled as he turned to look at me. I didn't need him to complete his words. I

ALEXOddly enough, I felt nothing. It was as if I had come to terms with this a long time ago, knowing that Marcus was the mastermind. He hadn't made a secret of how much he hated Aithan's family and wanted them out of his way. His hatred seemed to have seeped into his bone, clinging and taking root. It would take killing him to wipe it out, but would I do it? Pull the trigger on my father?I still didn't know if I would do that. I know I promised Aithan that I would, but I couldn't think of how the confrontation would be and how it would end.“Let's go.” Aithan stepped away from me and hurried towards the stairs, causing me to snap out of my thoughts. I rushed after him, keeping up with his pace. Unlike the time we went up the stairs when my mind was filled with indecent thoughts, I had other things occupying my mind.We were finally at the end of the journey we started months ago, and I knew it was time to take that leap, to prove my love to Aithan. He didn't ask me to do it. I perc

I walked back to where Aithan and Pink were, and when he noticed my expression, he stopped joking with his friend. “What's wrong?” He strode over to me, his brows furrowed. “Marcus is expecting us.” “Marcus? Your father?” He narrowed his eyes. “Were you just on a call with him?”“No, that was Sophia, my stepsister. Marcus only asked her to call me. He's waiting for us.” I filled him up on the conversation I had with Sophia, and his face clouded the more I spoke about Marcus. “Could it be that he knew what we were up to?”“I believe so. He must have forced Max to tell him what we discussed.” I clenched my fists, thinking of what he did to my best friend before he told the truth. If Max looked as bad as Sophie made it sound, then it wasn't something we could be lax about. “What do we do now?”“Meet him like he asked.” I folded my arms and tapped my feet impatiently. “Where exactly did he ask us to meet him? Do you have any idea?”“My cabin,” I said, without having to think of it. I

AITHAN It felt that way. I wanted to tell him, but I didn't. I kept that to myself and just nodded, tearing my gaze away from his hypnotic hazel ones. I didn't wish to get drawn into those orbs, not when we were going on a dangerous mission, one that would determine how our future would be.Alex started the car and drove towards his cabin. He didn't switch the radio on. Instead, he hummed throughout the ride. I liked that, though. His voice was soothing, enough to make me forget where we were heading. I imagined how things would have turned out between us if we weren't enemies. It would have been beautiful. We would have gone on dates and road trips without having to sneak around behind our fathers' backs to do it. Viktor wouldn't have asked me to break up with him, and he sure as hell would have loved Alex more than he loves me. It was such a perfect world, the opposite of the present one, where a man I would have called my father-in-law wanted me dead, going to the extent of hiri

ALEXI clenched my fists at his words, but I didn't step close. Aithan was still holding me and I didn't wish to shake off his hand. That would only make him feel bad, and I didn't want that. “Why did you send people to get rid of me?” Aithan demanded, looking straight at my father. He didn't flinch at the glare Marcus sent his way. There was no hesitation, no fear in his scent. “Why didn't you just do it yourself? Why hide behind Maximo and his men?”Marcus's face fell. Though it was just a few seconds' slip, he wasn't fast enough to change it before I caught up. “He told you?” A dark sound left his throat. It sounded between a cackle and a laugh, but not one of the two. For a second, he looked different, not like the man I knew, but another person.“We found out by ourselves.” Aithan drew a step towards him, still holding my arms. As I did in my office when he asked me to let him deal with Alex, I watched them, waiting for everything to unfold. “I see. I shouldn't have underestim

“No, I don't!” He lifted me from the bed before I could say another word and walked straight to the other door opposite the one I stepped in. “What are you doing?!” I panicked when he opened the door and I realized we were in his bathroom. “Getting her scent off you." He carried me to the bath and placed me on it, switching the tap on. “You are mine, Aithan. I don't want you to smell like other bloody people. I hate it. It makes me want to rub it off you." Despite the tingle in my stomach at how possessive he sounded, I couldn't help but lament, “And that's why you want to soak me up?” “Just bear with it. I don't want to perceive her scent on you. It's irritating.” He glared hard at my neck, his face pulled up in a dark scowl. "Why did you let her come close to you?" "It's not that strange, is it? She's family and —" He cursed under his breath, cutting my words short.“Don't go after her,” I warned, narrowing my eyes at him. “Why? Are you taking her sides now?”I rolled my eyes
Surrender Freely: Lyker's Redemption Why do you have her scent?
I walked down the hallway to Alex's room. Sophia would have escorted me, but she got a call from her brother and had to speak to him. I left her alone to do that after I saw her expression. She didn't seem that thrilled to talk with him.I knocked on the door but didn't get any response. Trying it for the second time, I pushed it open and stepped in. The first thing that assaulted my senses was his scent. It enveloped the room, instantly wrapping me up in warmth. I closed my eyes and inhaled the smell I liked the most in the entire world. It was almost like the time when I rolled on the bed after spending time with him in his cabin, inhaling his sweet scent. I opened my eyes to look around, seeking the owner of the room, but he was nowhere to be found. Letting out a sigh, I let my gaze run around the room, taking the furniture, the masculine decor and the arrangement, in. The bed, a sturdy oak frame with a plush grey duvet, perched against one wall, flanked by two nightstands with
Surrender Freely: Lyker's Redemption Will you reek of me?
He didn't disturb me anymore. The promise of a reward was enough to keep him in his room for the rest of the hour. I looked through the photo album with Sophia, laughing at how cute Alex was. Who would have thought someone like him had such a soft side? I realized, though, that the cute pictures stopped when he got older. I didn't need to calculate to know it was around the time our mothers died. Obviously, his mother was the one taking those pictures of him. When she died, Marcus stopped it. He started training his son to take over from him in his death. I noticed how sad and serious the pictures after the cute ones were. Alex only smiled in three of the pictures, and they looked forced. His eyes lost that sparkle they had when his mother was still alive. Whatever happened to him was enough to rub him of his innocence, turning him into the man he was.“Alex changed after he met you,” Sophia whispered, causing me to look up at her. I was so lost in my thoughts that I forgot she was
Surrender Freely: Lyker's Redemption A reward
AITHANWho knew women could be so strong and energetic? I didn't know, though, but it all changed when I met Sophia De Luca. She looked harmless with those soft brown eyes and auburn hair that she had up in twin ponytails. I watched her walk around; the hair bouncing with each step she took, intrigued. I'd never had a sister before, and the brother I had was almost non-existent. To me, I was an only child, and that never bothered me until I met Sophia. She was so fun to be with that she made me imagine how my life would have been if I had grown up with her. Would it have been the best?“Have you seen our photo album??!” she asked, rather excitedly. From the door, she led me to the house and straight to her room. She wasn't shy about having a man in her bedroom, and I realized it had to do with my relationship with her stepbrother. She knew I was taken and wouldn't have any thoughts about her. Her room was as feminine as she looked, with her cute pink sundress and ribbon she used in
Surrender Freely: Lyker's Redemption A fangirl
ALEX I felt like the only man in the entire world. Having my Aithan with me was the best feeling, like the first drop of water after a long winter. For the first time, I felt like I had found my meaning, the place I belong, where I was supposed to be.I got down from the car and walked around it to open the door for my mate. Aithan humoured me by staying put, waiting for me to do so. He smiled when I opened the door. “We are here.” I offered my hand to him, and he took it.He let me help him out of the car. I closed the door behind him and took his hand in mine, turning to look at the house. As if on cue, all the men gathered in front of the house, in two straight lines, leaving a space between them, enough for two people to walk through. Puzzled, I watched them, waiting to know what was going on. It was the first time I had seen something like this with the men. Max stepped out of the house and walked toward us, smiling. “Welcome home, alpha.” He bowed to me when he was a few pa

AITHAN “What the hell are you talking about?!” Viktor yelled, his veins popping out. His eyes looked like they would jut out from their sockets should he add more strain to them. “I'm leaving with Alex.” While he was seething, I was calm. I had already decided on this. Alex killed his father, to save me. Not everyone would do that. If he didn't love me, he wouldn't have harmed his blood just because he tried to kill me. It was time to break free from Viktor's hold. I'm no longer a kid who hides behind his father. I could tell it was near, the time to start a new life and a family. “You don't know what you are saying.” He drew close. “Did you, by chance, hit your head on anything? Is that why you aren't making any sense?” He placed his right hand on my forehead, to feel my temperature. “It's not hot. You are okay. So, why are you talking like a kid who lost his mind?!”“I didn't.” I shook my head and sat up on the bed. “I know what I'm talking about, Viktor. It's time to let go of
Surrender Freely: Lyker's Redemption Not anymore
Aithan woke up two weeks later. I had lost hope of ever seeing his pretty blue eyes, of ever seeing them smile when he finally opened it. The two weeks I spent by his bedside were the worst days I ever had. My heart felt like it was slowly dying each day that passed. His mark on my neck felt hot like it was being melted in a cauldron heated several times. I thought the worst. I thought the pain was because my mate was leaving, slowly losing grasp of the world. Sophie and Max stayed by my side, rendering their support the best they could while keeping the house running in my absence. I was too worried about my mate to care about the family and anything else. Viktor located me a few days ago, but I refused to let him see his son. It wasn't easy to do that. Had it not been for our location, there would have been a bloody fight between us. He was the father, after all. It wasn't like I cared. I didn't trust him enough to let him see my Aithan in this state. He might take him from me,
Surrender Freely: Lyker's Redemption You stink
I changed my mind on my way home. Instead of taking Aithan to the house like I planned to do, I drove him to the hospital instead. I needed to be careful with him, to avoid regretting my decision just because I wanted to hug him to myself all day. I had to drive him to the only hospital owned by the werewolves, the one with werewolf staffs instead of humans. To keep the humans out, the hospital always charged an obnoxious amount whenever they got human patients, so they could drive them out. Since the time they built it, they had admitted no human to it. I was right to take Aithan to the hospital, though. The doctors confirmed the poison would have slowly killed my lover if I didn't bring him over. Marcus knew it was lethal. He recognized how dangerous it would be to Aithan, and how it wouldn't affect me. It was clear he wanted to kill him and keep me alive, so I could return to the heartless killing machine I was for him.For a week, Aithan remained unconscious. I'd never been as w

I froze, and so did Aithan. I wasn't expecting to hear something like this. With Marcus, it was always one surprise after the other, but never in my wildest imagination did I think this would be something he would say. “You don't know, right?” He smiled, pleased he had gotten my attention. “I once thought you guys might be siblings, you know? Seeing how your mother didn't think twice about opening her legs for —”“That's a lie.” I shook my head, trying to deny everything I heard. “It can't be true. My mum never cheated on you. I knew it!”He scoffed. “You do?” “My father never cheated on my mum,” Aithan uttered. “Viktor always spoke about how they were meant for each other.”“Just like you and my son?” He chuckled. “It's a pity Alex believes the same.” He shook his head, looking at me with a mischievous smile, as if he knew a secret I didn't, one that would shatter my life if let out. “What do you mean?”“Are you acting like you don't know what I'm talking about?” He strode over to
