The Alpha King's Breeder The Last Resort
Naomi“No.”The word bounces through my skull with nowhere to land. I grip the edge of Oakley’s bed, my fingers winding around a spire of worn wood in the same shade as her hand-me-down dresser and bedside table. “No?”“No, I will not return to Fraser’s–to his palace.” She waves a hand in dismissal and looks down at her lap. “I’ll make things so much worse for Ian.”My scoff resounds through the room, but Oakley doesn’t even wince. She moves so slowly. Her skin has a sick, gray pallor, and her eyes… Goddess. She is very ill. I’m sure her family is under the impression that she’s just exhausted after being kidnapped by a beast and carted across the kingdom. I’m sure they’re forcing her to drink tea and keep busy. I’m sure everyone in Silverhide has heard the fake tale I’ve spun so eloquently by now to keep not only her, but Ian, and everyone we came in contact with, safe. I thought she’d be feeling better than this. I really believed she’d be improving. “Oakley, you’re dying.”“I’m
The Alpha King's Breeder We Failed
OakleyCrisp morning air carries the scent of lavender and rosemary. I tuck my sheets in tight, carefully laying out the quilt I just finished and then fluffing my pillows. It’s a familiar morning routine that now feels totally foreign. I used to be able to skip over the squeaky floorboards, having memorized which ones make the most noise, but now it’s unfamiliar, like I’ve forgotten the very layout of my room. I gather my sweat-soaked sheets from the floor and walk into the hallway to toss them down the laundry chute, where busy hands that don’t belong to me will clean them within the hour, and once the sun sets and the laundry is gathered from the line, they’ll be left in front of my bedroom door to repeat the process.Four nights of nightmares. Four nights of thrashing and waking up in a cold sweat. Four nights of echoing pain radiating from the void in my chest where the mate bond used to be.Four nights of fresh scars that continue to carve my skin raw. So, I wear long sleeves
The Alpha King's Breeder Sacrifices Must Be Made
Ian“That was better.” Fraser huffs a breath and shrugs back into his shirt. He winces, closing his eyes for a moment. Bruises fan across his shoulders and chest–large, deep paw prints. My clothes are shockingly intact, but I’m still in my fae form as the first glimpses of morning light turn the distant mountains a vibrant violet. Fraser carefully tucks in his shirt but moves like every step across the open air landing area high atop his mountain is painful. “Once you’re calmed down, I’ll meet you in the dining hall.”“I’m not hungry.”“I did not ask if you were,” he says bluntly, and he leaves me alone to ride out the last waves of the transformation I’ve been battling for the past two nights. Shifting isn’t even the worst of it. It’s everything else, everything that follows rejecting Oakley. I don’t go to the dining hall right away. It’s not like Fraser is waiting for me with a feast laid out. He normally just sits nearby and reads while I force myself to eat, and so far, I have
The Alpha King's Breeder Invitation
NaomiMy hand is the size of a cantaloupe but burns a bright, furious red. Little splotches of the deepest blue fan across my knuckles, and even the slightest twitch of my fingers sends a sharp, blinding pain ricocheting all the way up to my shoulder. Fraser adjusts his glasses, pressing them high against his straight, regal nose. Somewhat straight, I realize, since this is the closest I’ve been to the man so far. A faint scar stretches across the bridge of his nose, highlighting a kink from a very old break. The three deep gashes on his face are new and bold, even in the dim, fiery lantern light, but already skillfully tended and pitched together by bandages, like he’s had this happen to him before. We’re in his kitchen, I believe. It is a kitchen, but dated by several hundred, if not thousands, of years. There’s no refrigerator or dishwasher. A large wash basin and water pump serves as a sink, and the fireplace stretching from wall to wall is stained a deep blackish-gray from cent
The Alpha King's Breeder No Other Way
IanFraser paces along a stretch of tile in a room I can only describe as some kind of landing area. It’s mostly open to the elements, but it's a clear, blue day, not a single cloud in the sky as far as the eye can see. The last hints of summer warmth pick up dust as a breeze skitters through the room at large, which is domed and wide, large enough to fit six or more creatures like Fraser in their dragon forms, which I’m still trying to wrap my head around. I’ll have time to convince myself that what I saw last night when he shifted was real because the decision has been made. I am staying here. With him. Fennec and Wren are talking in low tones in the corner of the room. My cousin is dressed for a long journey. New supplies and gear hang from his shoulders, and his weapon belt is full of freshly sharpened blades. The women are upstairs preparing to leave. Even Oakley–and that hurts more than I can describe. Fraser has been more than generous with everyone, my wife included. Bu
The Alpha King's Breeder One Moment
Oakley“Hi there. No, you’re all right.” Juliette presses against my chest. I ease back against cushions that smell and feel unfamiliar. I have no idea where I am or why she’s here. “Everything’s fine.” A cool rag presses against my forehead, biting through heat so fierce I wonder if my skin is still attached to my body or has melted off entirely. Somewhere in my hazy vision, a door opens and shuts with a gentle click, and a shadow crosses the room to stand at Juliette’s side. “It’s over. Ian will be on his way shortly, I think.” Fennec gripping Juliette’s shoulder comes into view while my vision slowly focuses. I’m in a luxurious four-poster bed with a canopy of thick, creamy white velvet. Now, I remember coming here. I remember being so exhausted that Ian had to help me into a large copper bathtub. I remember him massaging my stiff fingers, so careful of the burns that are still healing. I remember a nightgown falling over my skin and being laid in soft, clean sheets. Then, ever
The Alpha King's Breeder Stabbed
*Isla*Maddox gives the signal for the condemned prisoners to be killed, and someone in the back of the crowd watching shouts, “Now!”Immediately, chaos erupts in front of the gallows as dozens of shifters leap up and change into their wolf forms. Women, children, and some men scream and try to get ou

KennaA sharp scraping sound pulls my attention from the book in my lap. I blink then whirl in the chair I’ve been lounging in for the better part of three hours to find my cousin Ryan dragging a massive grill across his back patio. “What the hell are you doing?” I ask. “Dinner.” He grins then picks

EvanderI’ll give credit where credit is due and admit that Kenna is fast. She darts across the grassy expanse of wide open farmland at a speed I hadn’t expected, and I find myself jogging to try to catch up to her.She cuts between two barns and disappe

EllaIt’s odd seeing Ryatt in plain clothes. He doesn’t fit here, I realize, as I watch him turn his gaze from the strangers seated nearby back to the water all around us. He’s been silent since we walked onto the ferry that runs between the isles and Maatua. I wish I could take a peek into his mind,
