It was taking every ounce of restraint that I had to keep myself focused on the task at hand instead of slipping back into the memory of this morning.

Everything felt right and perfect, waking up with her in my arms. Perhaps I could convince her to let it happen again.

Niccolò gave me shit when I walked out of her room, but I couldn’t find it in me to care. Nah, I was flying high instead.

Dad had been pissed when we told him everything that Ana admitted to last night. He assured me that she would be taken care of. It was pure and simple treason.

I appreciated how much my family had taken to Violet and how protective they were of her. The fact that Ana admitted that she would pay someone to kill her was just one nail in the bitch’s coffin. Another nail was the fact that she’d be willing to drug me to create an unwanted and forced bond.

We made our way upstairs once we got to Vittori Enterprises. Marco was planning on staying downstairs to wait for Alpha Maxwell’s arrival before joi

I believe that they will be able to. Will we get an Eli POV at all? I'm insanely curious about what's going through his mind regarding all of this.

    MAXWELLSilence enveloped the car, the both of us stuck in our own thoughts.I’d woken up this morning with the feeling that the meeting would change things, but I never thought things would change as much as they did.Everything that I’d known was a lie. Every single fucking thing. It felt like my head was bound to implode with the truths that blew my world open wide. The grenade had been thrown, and the fallout was immense.Thorn and I were both berating ourselves for falling for her tricks. We should’ve known that something was wrong. There were signs that we chose to ignore. No truly fated mates had the connection, or lack thereof, that we did. Goddess. How could we have been so stupid?Nineteen years. NINETEEN YEARS of lies and deception…I was a failure as an Alpha, a man, a father, and a person. While Candice brought Violet into this world alone, I was playing house with the same bitch who would turn her over to the hunters. Two years. Candice had been with them for two damn yea

    ELII’d been in shock when Dad told me about Violet’s existence. I always wanted siblings but knew that it wasn’t in the cards because my parents were mates only by name. They attempted to keep their bullshit from being noticed, but it was sort of an impossible task.To be honest, I was thrilled when I heard that I had a sister. It didn’t matter if she was a stranger because she was one of us.Knowing that she’d be coming for dinner had made me very nervous because I wanted it to be a positive experience for her. I also didn’t know if she would resent me because I grew up with Dad when she didn’t. Thankfully, we got along really well.It destroyed me to know that Mom had a hand in the suffering that Violet’s family went through. The depths of her betrayal went beyond that though. She spent nineteen years faking a mate-bond with Dad just to use her position to gain access to this pack. She destroyed his relationship with Candice, leaving the woman to raise my sister on her own. Then she

    ENZOI chuckled deeply at the challenge and stood up, holding my hand out to her.Warmth passed over my hand again when hers slid against mine. We both looked down at our hands. This wasn’t the first time that it’d happened before. I pushed those thoughts aside so that I could focus on the important one in front of me.“I want you to strip for me. Show me that gorgeous body of yours,” I purred.She blushed profusely but grabbed the hem of her top, pulling it up and over her head. My eyes drank in each uncovered inch of her body. Her lace bra was next. It pushed them up, giving just enough tease with cleavage that I could definitely fuck. I hissed under my breath when her tits were on full display. Then came her shorts and matching panties.“Una squisita opera d'arte. La perfezione personificata. [An exquisite work of art. Perfection personified.]”She gasped a little when she heard that, as if she couldn’t believe that I saw her that way. Oh, I did and so much more. If only she could s

    ENZOAlpha Maxwell and his son were due to get here shortly. We were all curious to know how everything went down with psycho bitch.I had to hand it to them both that they took the betrayals a lot better than I would’ve if I was in their position. There hadn’t been any way for us to anticipate their reactions, but both of theirs pleased me because it showed that they had my girl’s back.Yes, she was my girl. I hadn’t officially asked her or anything, but I’d be doing that shortly. Especially after last night, there was no way that I’d be letting her get away from me unless she truly didn’t want to be with me. Never had I felt this way before. That, in and of itself, was unnerving but a tell-tale sign that I truly cared about her. Titan was in complete agreement with me.Violet was someone special that I hadn’t anticipated to enter my life, but I was thankful for it. Everyone knew me as the strict, cold, and meticulous CEO. The one who didn’t hold back from doing what I wanted and taki

    VIOLETHis lips lit a fire inside of me. That fire helped to burn away the uncertainties that I felt when I saw those photos.My morning had been going amazingly well until the bitch caught me in the hallway.I loved feeling useful, and I did after helping Mrs. Danvers in the kitchen. It all reminded me what it was like when Mom was still with us. We’d work together on meal planning and always tried new recipes. It helped me feel closer to her even if it was through doing it with Mrs. Danvers.Once the kiss broke, he rested his face against my neck. He was inhaling deeply as if trying to calm himself. I could feel his body shaking as if he was struggling, so I did what I could to help him. My fingers ran through his hair while I hummed to him.I felt his lips press a kiss against my neck before he raised his head up and kissed my forehead too.“First of all, I’m sorry she pulled that shit. She knows full well that the only thing between Ana and I was the very rare hookup. I never would

    ENZOThe call with Kaia went a lot easier than any of us had anticipated for it to. That simply served to relax us some.I was insanely curious about the rest of the Appersons because they were clearly threats, but I wondered how big those threats actually were. I didn’t care how powerful they might be, but I’d be damned if I allowed anyone else to harm her. She’d been through enough pain already in life.It might not be safest to keep her here at the pack simply because people would be able to tell that she was Fae. While we’d like to believe that all of our pack members could be trusted, the truth of the matter was that there were people like Ana and Stacia who wouldn’t think twice about striking Violet even if it meant go through her aunt to do it.My house was one of the safest places around because I spared no expense when it came to designing it. Not to mention that it was on a large plot of land because I liked my privacy. There were no nosy neighbors or anything.I wouldn’t lie

    VIOLETRage gripped me, pouring through my body like lava until I felt like it would explode out of me.She would live to regret ever uttering those words. Oh, she would regret everything by the time that I was done with her.I’d never considered myself to be a violent person. So, those thoughts should’ve startled me, but they didn’t because there was an undeniable truth that was woven into me – nobody messed with my family. It was something that I’d always abided by whether it was about Mom or Daph. I didn’t know these two well at all, but they were my family.“I can’t fucking find it!” Luna Bitch snapped. “Yes, it’s fucking necessary. I need that amulet. The bitch gave it to him, and he never realized its importance.”She pinched the bridge of her nose and sat down on the bed, crossing her legs. Her entire demeanor screamed that she was annoyed. That brought a smirk to my face.“It’s made from black obsidian, which is what’s protecting him from being controlled. Normally, it would ha

    ENZOI couldn’t get the image of what she looked like earlier out of my head. It was like the amulet was a boosting power source that enhanced her Fae side.The shimmer made her skin look like it was brushed with diamond dust. Her features had sharpened some, and she looked more sensual overall. It was as if she was painted by a world-renowned artist.Despite the fuckery that we were currently dealing with, I was glad that Violet, Alpha Maxwell, and Eli found each other. It was new and awkward for certain, but it was slowly progressing. Anyone could see how much her presence already meant to those two, but you could also see how much she was beginning to appreciate them. Violet was a guarded individual for a reason.Even if the words hadn’t been specifically spoken until this meeting, Violet considered them to be family. The roar alone showed how dangerous of a game that the bitch was playing. Titan damn near swooned over that roar because of the power behind it. It was like a punch to

    CANDICE“C’mon, let’s give the new family some peace,” I said with a smile, happy to see how much they already loved the little one.We gave hugs and kisses before leaving the room.“Hey, Daph, why don’t you go check on the food preparations? Perhaps Eli wouldn’t mind helping,” I suggested, looking at him.He immediately nodded, saying that he didn’t mind in the least. I bit the inside of my cheek to keep myself from grinning. Eli was a good kid, so I had no worries when it came to him being around Daph.His response perked her right up. She looped her arm around his and damn near pulled him. She was already asking him questions about himself. Daph had this magnetic personality, one that could pull anyone into her orbit. Even the crankiest of people weren’t immune to her special brand of charm.An arm wrapped around my waist, sending a flurry of delicious sparks wherever our skin touched. I hadn’t expected for us to be fated to one another. I had no idea why we didn’t have this bond be

    ALPHA BRADLEYThe ringing of a phone jolted me awake. I looked at the clock and was immediately pissed the fuck off. It was five in the morning. Whoever was calling had a death wish.“What?” I snarled into the phone.“Alpha, there’s a…situation…” Taylor’s voice trailed off.His vagueness pissed me off further. Sentinel or not, he knew better than to waste my time. The world had better be burning or else his body would be. “What type of fucking situation?” I asked, throwing the blanket off of me and standing up.Whatever happened had better be important or else I’d just have to snap his neck and be done with it. I didn't have the time, patience, or desire to deal with incompetence. I walked over to my closet and slipped on a pair of sweatpants but left my chest bare. I lived alone in my house on the Council’s grounds. My ‘mate’ died years ago. She was just a means to an end so that it wouldn't appear odd for me to live alone and without a mate like some of the others had. “The guild

    ENZOTitan and I were already compiling a list of things that we needed to get for Avalynn. A small part of me wondered who the biological sperm donor was. If the mother had been one of the breeders then there was no telling for certain.I knew that she was a pup, but I wondered if she was a hybrid or a full werewolf. We needed to know just so that we'd be able to give her the best possible care. It didn't matter outside of that. Hybrid infants often had specific needs based on their genetics. Breast milk helped to provide for those needs, but it was obviously not something that we could do with her.‘Reika said that she and Violet are okay with us running a DNA profile on her like we did on them. They want to know too,’ Titan told me.Well, that was good to know. Now, I wouldn't have to wait to ask. I made my way downstairs and told Dr. Sutton what we wanted done. The good news was that some blood had already been drawn earlier, so Avalynn wouldn't need to be poked again. The results

    ENZOViolet was practically dead on her feet by the time that we finally cleared out the guild’s compound. I knew for a fact that I would never be able to forget the horrific things that we saw tonight. There was a vast difference between hearing about it and witnessing it. My fucking heart shattered for everything that they had gone through. NOBODY should be treated the way that these survivors had been. That was precisely what they were – survivors.I prayed to the Goddess that she would provide opportunities to help them heal from their trauma. We would do everything in our power to make it happen.A rough estimate was that we rescued around two hundred people tonight. It was the largest successful rescue mission against hunters that I've ever heard about before. There were no fatalities from our pack or our allies. There were, however, many injuries and some very serious ones, but they would get the best possible care.Thankfully, we had evidence of everything that we encountered

    VIOLETDr. Sutton and her team were actively treating the people that had already been brought to our house.A triage station was set up, along with curtains for privacy. I knew that everyone was overwhelmed and hadn’t had time to wrap their heads around the fact that they were no longer prisoners in that fucked-up place. Hopefully, in time, they will be able to allow themselves to embrace their newfound freedom.“Dr. Sutton,” I called out to her.She asked one of the nurses to give some pain medicine to the woman that she was tending to before excusing herself.A frown pulled her lips down when she saw Rainy. I could tell how furious she was at how these people had been treated by the hunters. She wasn’t alone in that sentiment. Not by a longshot.“We’re going to be bringing in a large group of individuals who were being experimented on to test different species’ healing abilities. Some of them are really severe just by judging the outward appearances. This little one, Rainy, has been

    ENZO‘How do you feel about Reika’s revelation?’ I asked Titan.I had often wondered what my life would be like as a father. It was something that I truly wanted to experience whether or not the child was biologically mine. I had never imagined beginning a family with someone until Violet came into my life.Titan tilted his head in thought and took a few moments before he answered me. I had always appreciated how much my wolf thought about something before he answered.‘I don’t remember my past lives, but I had them. I’m certain that I had mates and potentially even had some pups. Reika is different because of the type of wolf that she is. We share a very close connection and don’t block each other out. I saw the memories of those Alpha mates that she had, but there was no affection for them except for the respect that she still holds for them to this day. However, it was completely different for the memories of Avalynn and Natalia. I felt her complete heartbreak as she watched them di

    VIOLETI was not certain if she had known about the pregnancy or not. I also didn’t know how she felt about it. Not everyone could accept giving birth to a baby that was not consensually conceived. It was a decision that only they could make.Her nostrils flared, attention snapping towards Joshua. Her face paled when she saw him. She ducked her head as shame rushed through her. Not fear but shame. I could imagine where her mind went. The mate who had been fated to her came upon her being raped. Then she was pregnant by someone else on top of that.“You can do it now if you’d like or you can wait until we get out of here, sir,” she told him softly, trying her best to control her voice.“My name is Joshua not sir. What are you talking about?” he asked her, clearly uncertain about what it was even if I had a feeling where this was going.“Rejecting me. It’s okay if you don’t want to wait.”His jaw clenched hard enough that I was afraid it would end up cracking. Panic. That was what he fel

    VIOLETI side-eyed the woman who was leaning against me as we walked down the corridor. Despite the bruises and scars, I had never seen her more beautiful than she was right now because she was finally back with us after everything. Her body was weak from two years of being mistreated, but her will was ironclad. I had always admired her strength. That was what kept her going no matter what they tried to do to her. Daph was on the other side of her, helping to hold her up as well. Thankfully, Daph’s injuries were minimal. The bruises from what Alpha Bradley had done to her were nearly gone. Oh, he would suffer greatly for everything that he'd done and everything that he'd facilitated. I wished that he was here just so that I could end him, but he did not deserve an easy death. No. He deserved a fate that was far worse than that. The only way that he would receive that was by us properly handling the situation. It was imperative that this was done in front of the Werewolf Council so t

    ENZOWe were waiting in the shadows of the tree line for Sven’s confirmation that we could continue forward.There was a lot of nervous energy bouncing around inside of Violet right now. She was so close to her mother and sister but still so far. I knew that she would love to rush in with guns blazing but knew that it would ruin any chance of saving her family while also risking all of our safety.“The security feeds are now being looped, so you can proceed,” Sven said through the comms that we were all wearing.I looked down at Violet and asked if she was ready. A steadying breath was taken before her head nodded. I raised my hand, flicking my wrist to signal to everyone that it was time to move out.We were as silent as possible as we moved towards the compound. Surprisingly, the first guards had not sensed our approach. Niccolò and I raised our tranquilizer guns and shot them. They fell to the ground, knocked out cold.“They aren’t human…” Violet whispered, cautiously approaching th
