Nina called and chatted with the soldier Alex had told her to call if there was any kind of emergency while he was away. She told him that it would make Fiona feel a lot safer if the soldiers would install a guard in the hallway outside their rooms, and of course the man agreed immediately, saying h
Alexander I rode shotgun in Grayson’s SUV again, with Kayden and Cal in the backseat so the three of us could talk on the drive. Our vehicle headed the Cold Moon Pack’s ragtag fleet of miscellaneous vehicles that was once again couriering me and my guys to our next destination. This time, we were
You can’t… A firm, heavy hand landed on my shoulder and gave it a single, sharp squeeze. And then was gone. I turned and looked back at my Beta, who was seated behind me. Kayden met my eyes and gave a small nod of his head. His face was still, his features expressionless. He mindlinked me whe
Fiona Nina returned to the room about half an hour later with two kitchen attendants pushing two catering carts. She hadn’t been kidding about loading up on food so that we wouldn’t have to leave the room or even open the door for the rest of the day. She seemed to be avoiding my eyes, though, a
Iris’s blood was pumping hot and fast with anger, her skin flushed all over. Fiona’s friend had really set her off. Striding up to Iris’s door and staring down at her menacingly, saying shit like “see ya ’round” like she was some kind of a mob boss? Who did she think she was? Coming here to Iris’s
Alexander The hot desert sun beat down upon our bodies as hours passed and the Strike Team descended, step by step, rock by rock, into the canyon. We were all drenched with sweat by the time we reached the bottom. I saw the tiny figures of the second group of climbers get into position way up on
I heard Kayden make his entrance behind me. And a third man after that. We crept in with tremendous stealth, searching the darkness for huddled forms, for splinter tunnels into deeper caves, for anything. But there was no sign of them yet. No vampires huddled together on the floor. No footprints i
There was no time now to wonder or worry or try to plan for what Caius had in store for me deeper into the cave. He was waiting for me, that I knew. The rigged entrance that trapped us inside here with them… He knew we were coming, and he had a plan. I knew that. But I had no choice. There was no
“Maybe. But I could say the same to you, Alex.” He looked down and suddenly became aware that he was holding my full weight while standing on his two legs. This was the strongest Alex had been yet, since returning from the desert. I could feel the power pulsing off of him. He was back to himself a
Fiona “I’m so glad we’re finally doing this.” I closed my eyes and inhaled a deep breath of fresh, cool forest air. The smells of pine, damp earth and my Alpha’s masculine scent combined to soothe and excite my senses all at once. Alexander pulled his shirt off and dropped it onto a large, flat
“I just can’t believe it,” Fiona said. She had the baby slung lazily but comfortably on her hip. Both of them had their blue eyes focused on Nina while she worked on packing her belongings into a big suitcase splayed out atop her fluffy white bedspread. “We’re going to miss you so much here.” “I w
Third person Having his wrists in handcuffs was still unpleasant. Lucas wondered if the sensation of wrist restraints would ever stop triggering memories of his time in captivity. But after weeks in prison, where he was given adequate food and reasonable living conditions, Lucas was pretty sure th
TWO MONTHS LATER. Alexander I slid my hands all over Fiona’s soft, wet skin, tracing the shapes of her curves. It was a relief to have mostly normal use of my hands again, though I was still getting used to the new sensation of having my thumbs free and being able to move them. I was loving this
AlexanderIt was as simple as that. Fiona ignored the stupid things coming out of my mouth, pinned my broken body underneath her and forced me to change my mindstate.She snapped me out of that dark place of near insanity by feeding me her beautiful, intoxicating body and pressing her own energy into
He knew that I was close. He let out a sexy, vibrating growl as he moved his lips up to my clit and sucked it hungrily, then returned his tongue to my core and pressed it up inside me again. I cried out his name and gripped his head with my thighs when ecstatic relief hit me like a wave. The volum
He tried to push me away, but I shoved his arms down to the bed. “Are you going to fight me, Alex? Are you going to force me off of you? Hm? Are you going to hurt me?” My voice was razor-sharp, my tone ice-cold. “Fiona—” “Now you listen to me.” I straddled his broad chest and sat down onto it. “
I’d heard Alexander throwing up in the shower, that night when he fought the vampires at the courthouse. He’d been absolutely covered in that black gunk when he returned from that first battle, and he’d used up half a tube of toothpaste cleaning his mouth afterward. But when he returned to the pal
