Guilt gnawed at me because I failed to protect my mate. Logically, I knew that there was no way that I could’ve done it, especially given the fact that it happened so quickly. However, that didn’t stop me from feeling like I failed her.

The need to protect our mates was a cornerstone of the mate-bond. Well, a healthy mate-bond at least. Not everyone cared about their mates, but decent people did.

Titan was right there with me as we watched the doctor’s every movement, ensuring that nothing happened to Violet. I’d never been one to trust blindly. That was amplified around anyone who could or would harm her.

Titan confirmed that Alpha Maxwell’s wolf told him that this was the doctor who had been on the receiving end of the fake mate-bond to the elder. We couldn’t be too careful when it came to whom we trusted.

“The bullet is silver and appears to have been coated in wolfsbane,” the doctor explained.

She dropped the bullet into an evidence bag like Alpha Maxwell insisted that he want

    VIOLETReika gave me a brief rundown of the Werewolf Council and what their role was. It was positively disgusting that anyone could condone what was going on in the video of Mom’s torture. Not to mention that the bastard alluded to the fact that he had no qualms with raping her.How could anyone be that fucked up in the head? More than that, how could someone, who was meant to protect their people and other supernaturals, be buddies with hunters? Did that even make any sense at all? I was new to this whole world and all, but even I knew that it was a fucked-up thing for those in power to do.Max’s fist hit the bastard’s jaw with enough force to crack it. The yelp of pain was highly rewarding. He needed to let off some steam, and the bastard deserved to experience pain. It was a win-win all the way around.The bastard started laughing. His tongue swept over the cut on his lip. Then he spit the blood from his mouth.“Is that the best you’ve got, Alpha?” he asked, mockingly enunciating h

    VIOLETMy eyes blinked open and immediately knew that I was dreaming.I don’t even remember falling asleep. The last thing that I recalled was Aunt Kaia working her magic, literally, to conceal him from anyone being able to locate him by means of magic. Likewise, nobody would be able to sense his presence. He was then administered a sedative to knock him the fuck out for now until we figured out how to deal with him.Apparently, it wasn’t a great thing to hold a member of the Council against their will. It was grounds for war or some shit like that. We needed absolute and irrefutable proof before the Council got involved because those two bastards would NOT be getting away with their bullshit.“Focus on thoughts of your father and the desire for him to be here right now.”I turned around and saw Mom standing there, wearing her favorite baby blue sundress that Daph and I gave her on the last birthday that we celebrated together. That memory choked me up some, but I pushed those emotions

    ENZOTingles erupted throughout my body, causing pleasure to crash and erupt into need. The feeling of something warm trailing down my chest had my eyes snapping open.Violet's gorgeous eyes met mine and were darkened with lust. Her lips tipped up into a little grin before those lips continued their trek down my body. “Looks like someone's in a playful mood,” I said with a purr.She just hummed in response. Her tongue darted out, tracing my abs. That had me throbbing hard. The mate-bond sparks only added to the sensations. Because of everything that had happened lately, we’d only had that one intimate encounter when I ate her out. Fuck, did she taste good. The memory of it had my mouth watering, wanting nothing more than to taste her again. I would do just that after she had her wicked little way with me. I was more than curious to experience whatever she was about to do.Violet had passed out from exhaustion earlier, so it seemed that she was feeling better now if the mischievous t

    VIOLETEnzo’s body pressed against mine, resting his weight on his forearms to keep it off of me.This man was the sexiest being in creation, of that I was absolutely certain. His body was a work of art and looked like he was carved from perfection. It was defined with delicious muscles that I had enjoyed tracing with my tongue – well, at least the ones that I’d gotten to earlier. Those muscles showed just how strong he was.While I was nervous right now, I was even more excited to experience this with him.I hadn’t intentionally saved myself for my future husband or mate or whatever. However, I was glad that it worked out so that he was the only one who I’d ever be with. I didn’t hold his past against him or anything. I wasn’t thrilled that those other women had experienced being with him, but he was now mine. Only mine. I owned, as he’d put it, all of him – heart, body, and soul.I might’ve just came, but my clit was throbbing with need again when he kissed me.Was there anything tha

    VIOLETMy arms clung to Enzo’s shoulders as he pounded into me against the shower’s wall.I tilted my head back as pleasure coursed through me on a closed circuit. Never had anything felt this good before. We were on round four, but my body still felt starved. Every touch, kiss, and thrust stoked the fire that was burning inside of me.“Look at me,” Enzo commanded huskily.His eyes were filled to the brim with lust and darker than I’d ever seen before.My eyes rolled when his fingers pinched my nipple. Was there anything he could do that didn’t feel amazing? Those same fingers went down to work on my clit. That was all it took to fall over the edge. He took the dive right after me.“You look so fucking gorgeous when you come undone. I’ll never get tired of watching it,” he told me after we both came back down to Earth.His words brought a blush to my cheeks. I’ve never had anyone see me the way that he did. I didn’t just mean naked but the way that he looked at me as if I was the most

    CANDICEI looked up at the ceiling of my cell, thinking about how good Max looked even after all of these years. He’d always been the most handsome guy I’d ever seen, but the years gave him a type of sexy maturity. It suited him well.Memories of us were what kept me as sane as I’d been for the past two years. Although, I wasn’t certain how sane that was any longer. Days, weeks, and months bled together until it was just a large shadow over time.It was easier to deal with before they showed me their trump card.(Flashback)Pain rushed through me when an asshole slammed a knife into my arm before dragging it downwards, slicing through the skin like softened butter. It hurt like hell but wasn’t the worst thing that they’d done to me over the years.Hunters were disgusting excuses for humans. They did whatever they wanted to supernaturals while using the guise of science. They made excuses for their deplorable actions by claiming that we weren’t human and were nothing but monsters. There

    DAPHNEIt would seem that Mr. Asshat didn’t like my answer. That was made abundantly clear when he walked around the table and slapped my face hard enough that I tasted blood.Thankfully, I was used to being struck. There were times when Ron was home, but Vi wasn’t. I never told her that he would hit me because she would drown in guilt and would more than likely do something that would end up getting her hurt. I’d do everything in my power to protect her, just like she did for me.No matter what happened here, I would never betray her even if that resulted in my death.I was glad that they lost her when Ron sold her to them that night.

    ENZOMy mate had been pissed off ever since she got done speaking with Daphne but had yet to share anything. The emotions within her were concerning, but I knew that she needed to work through it all before she could open up. So, I gave her the peace and quiet that she needed. Me, Alpha Maxwell, Eli, my brother, Kaia, and Lilac were all gathered around, watching Violet pace. We had bets going for how long it’d last. I was currently winning with twenty-five minutes. She let out a loud growl and punched the wall after another seven minutes.Violet turned around, as if just realizing that we were all still here. I went over and took a look at her hand. It was a hard punch, but Niccolò had taught her how to do it without fucking up her hand. The knuckle on her middle finger had split open, so I kissed it. Then I tipped her chin up and kissed her. It was soft and quick, but it helped to relax some just like I’d hoped that it would.‘We’re all here for you,’ I promised her.She smiled and n

    ENZOIt had only been hours that she had been here, but the environment felt completely different. This place had always just been a place where I lived and where I slept – a pitstop if you wanted to consider it as such. Now, however, I could envision filling this place with proof of our love, leaving behind a lifetime of memories.I leaned against the wall, arms crossed over my chest. I smiled as I watched Violet clean up the kitchen. She was humming and dancing around as she worked. I loved getting to know her and learning all about her unique quirks. She didn’t have to do the kitchen, especially since she cooked, but she insisted on doing it.Who was I to ignore things that made her happy? This was something mundane, as she put it, which gave her a reprieve from all of the craziness lately.An important side note was that she was an amazing cook. I’d never tasted food as good as hers, and that was saying something because I’ve eaten plenty of food in my lifetime. I would say that it

    LILACMy heart started pounding against my ribcage the moment that Violet mentioned my daughter. I wouldn't be surprised if it broke straight through the bone. Mom and I had done everything in our power to ensure that the three of us would never be found, but it seemed like it was futile in the end. Every sacrifice that we had made meant nothing in the end. The Appersons were downright fucked up. They skirted the line of Light Fae and Dark Fae. See, our kind originated as one with pure magic and pure purpose. Some Fae became greedy, wanting more and more power. They sought outside means to get it, which turned out to be dark magic. The magic fused with the light inside of them and corrupted their entire being. It even changed their appearance, turning their eyes dark, bodies dull gray in color, and black veins formed on their skin. The Appersons had powerful magic that kept the physical manifestation from taking hold. It allowed them to have their cake and to eat it too. Each new g

    ENZOMy family had always wondered why I’d put so much time and thought into the design of my house, especially considering the fact that I lived alone. Perhaps there was a part of me that hoped I wouldn’t be alone in the end and would be able to build a life and family here even if I hadn’t put too much thought into a future mate.Three stories, ten bedrooms, eight bathrooms, library, gym, theater room, home office, heated outdoor pool, sauna, and jacuzzi. There was also a separate four-bedroom guesthouse that was also fully-furnished.I heard Violet’s soft gasp when the gates opened up, allowing me to drive in. There was a deep sense of awe running through her as her eyes swiveled around from side to side, taking it all in.There were ten acres of land associated with this property. The woods provided plenty of area for Titan to run and hunt whenever he was in a mood to do so. It also had plenty of coverage to hide the security devices and boobytraps from prying eyes. Security was on

    LILACI had no idea why fate paired us together, but I had to believe that there was a reason for it.A part of me worried that Niccolò might not feel that I was worth fighting for. What if he couldn’t accept my crazy life? What if he’d rather just go and find a she-wolf, one that could give his wolf a wolf mate?My eyes burned when I thought about that happening. I clenched my hands into fists and focused on the blurring scenery, hoping that everything would work out in the end.Sparks broke me out of those thoughts. I looked down and saw that his hand was clasped with mine.Niccolò leaned over and placed a kiss on my head. I didn’t know why he did this, but it was exactly what I needed. I scooted closer and rested my head on his shoulder. His emotions felt much lighter right now, which helped to soothe my frayed nerves.After another hour of driving, we pulled up to a large gate. Enzo placed his hand on a scanner and spoke a command. The gate swung open, and he drove inside.The land

    ALPHA BRADLEYI walked over to the bar cart near the window and poured myself a drink. It was premium A-grade stock that was more potent than typical alcohol. The burn slid down my throat, coming to rest in my chest. Looking out the window, I wanted to scoff at the scene. People walking around the grounds without a care in the world, believing that they were safe and completely unaware of the danger that was hiding right in plain sight. My eyes scanned the Sentinels that were on duty, tasked with keeping everyone here on the Council grounds safe. The irony brought a smirk to my face.I wondered what the rest of the Council would think if they knew the truth of what had been occurring right underneath their noses for the past five years. I had to give it enough time to get my bearings once I was inducted into one of the highest positions in the werewolf world. A year after I came here, the long-awaited plan was put into motion.One might think that doing anything nefarious with six fel
