RhysonThe sounds of her pain ripped through me, and my wolf came charging out as I burst through the door. Magic surrounded her and the witches, and she was on her back, arching upward, screaming like they were torturing her. Without a second thought, I slammed through the magic, and the whole coven rattled.“Fuck. Duke!” Janelle screamed, and Maya’s screams stopped. That didn’t stop me from breaking through the witches and hunching over her body, growling.“Rhyson, she knew there might be pain,” Irene said in a calm voice. “We are trying to help her.”Her voice barely penetrated, and I realized in that split second that my wolf was in control.Fucking hell, my wolf never took full control. I yanked hard on my bond with him, and he snarled.At me.“Rhyson?” Maya asked in a weak voice, and I felt her hands on the belly of my wolf. “Rhyson, I’m okay.”Duke stepped into the room. He took one look at me, and his eyes widened. “Walk very slowly to the door. Do not turn your back on him,”

MayaEven with the vehicles, it still took four days to travel to Snake River Pack. We didn’t run into any trouble, but camping out in the open was tense. I shared a vehicle with Rhyson, and he was rarely not touching me. I think he expected me to have a breakdown at any moment.Meanwhile, I was worried that he’d lose control of his wolf, and I wasn’t the only one. The others kept shooting him furtive looks as well.Jax, Anna, and the witches all stayed behind. Jenson was our only emissary, and he was clearly not happy about it. I didn’t know for sure, but it felt like he still hadn’t healed from Gideon’s torture. At least, not mentally, and he was clearly reluctant to leave his witch.They clearly had a bond. Was it a mating bond? If so, how did it feel to not have the bond reciprocated? It wasn’t like Irene could grow a mate bond. She wasn’t a wolf.I needed to do my research. Now that I knew what was wrong with me, I needed to know how to best handle my situation. If others could f

Rhyson growled, and the room stilled. Elonso, however, didn’t seem upset. “Sorry. I know you’re incognito here. I just thought we would go ahead and point out the white elephant in the room. How would you like to be addressed?”“Rhyson. If I don’t like what you have to say, you won’t live long enough to address me at all.”“You aren’t going to like what I have to say, but I’ve been told you’re not likely to shoot the messenger. Jax says you’re a good man, and I hope he’s right. What I have to say is private. Your wolves can stay outside. Jenson can remain, as Jax’s representative. I hear congratulations are in order.”“My wolves will stay,” Rhyson said darkly.“Then I’ll leave.” Elonso met his gaze head-on. “In other circumstances, I’d be telling you this in complete privacy, Rhyson. I’m not just protecting myself.”What the hell did that mean?Turning, Rhyson nodded at the others, who hesitantly filed out of the room. They wouldn’t be going far. I turned to follow them, but Rhyson sn

Rhyson “Maybe we should go for a run. Blow off some of that energy,” Maya suggested in a low tone. “If you keep pacing, you’re only going to build more agitation.” Whirling around, I nearly snapped at her, but she didn’t shrivel up at my expression or shrink away. She’d been with me while Elonso and London figured out exactly who my sister was within his pack. She’d been there, but London told me that he would not let me see her until he spoke to her first. She’d kept me from pulling out every wolf in this pack and forcing them to my will. With a low moan, I sank onto the bed and cradled my head in my hands. “Rhyson,” Maya whispered, and placed her hand on my knee. “Talk to me. Let it out. It’s okay. Whatever happens, we’re going to be okay.” “I never looked for them. Not once. I was so certain that they were dead,” I said hoarsely. “It’s been years, Maya. They must have thought Marrow and I would come for them. That we would rescue them. They must hate me.” “No matter how

“Why didn’t you tell London what happened to you?”“We didn’t trust him, Rhyson. We didn’t trust anyone for years, and then it wasn’t so bad living here,” Gemma said with a soft smile. Reaching out, she took my hand and squeezed. “I don’t blame you. I thought of you every day and wished I could take that fight back. I hated knowing those were the last words we might ever speak to each other. I was such a child then.”Grateful, I squeezed her hand back. I told them that I’d found them because of Marrow, and then I had to tell them of Marrow’s death. The pain washed over me all over again as Emily cried. “God, we should have tried harder to come home. Maybe none of this would have happened.”I thought of Maya’s words and the guilt I held. “This isn’t your fault, Emily. I’m going to find who killed him, and I’m going to make them pay.”There was a knock at the door, and I grinned. “There is someone who I want you to meet.”The door opened, and London popped his head in. “You girls okay?”

MayaPanic attack. Oh, I was having a full-on panic attack. After ducking out of the conference room, I’d run as fast as I could, which wasn’t that fast on two legs, but God, I needed to put as much space as I could between what had just happened and myself.It wasn’t until my lungs were burning that I stopped and realized that I wasn’t alone. Juniper stopped next to me and frowned. I was leaning over, ready to hurl on the ground, and she was barely red in the face.“I’m going to chalk it up to the baby growing because otherwise, you are in terrible shape in human form.”Straightening, I glared at her. “We’ve been running around this goddamn mountain for weeks, and you’re just now noticing?”“I guess we’re usually running from something, so I hadn’t noticed. Are we running from something now?”“No. Maybe.” My panic still wasn’t subsiding. “I just met Emily and Gemma.”Juniper’s eyes filled with pleasure, and she sat next to me. We were close to the territory line, and there were patro

Rhyson“Charlotte and Bryan were wonderful,” Emily said softly. “We couldn’t give our real names, and we couldn’t come up with fake ones. We were so scared to talk to anyone. They were the ones who named us Christa and Carla. I think, to this day, they still assume that Gemma and I are sisters. Rhyson, I don’t want you to think that I forgot our parents.”“No,” I broke in, my throat tightening. “No, I don’t think that at all. You do not need to apologize for surviving. I would like to meet them and thank them for taking care of you.”Gemma and Emily exchanged looks. “We spoke to them last night after London told us the news. We needed someone to talk to. We ended up telling them everything,” Gemma confessed. “It was a long night of confessing, but they would love to meet you as well.”The door opened, and Juniper stepped in. She was beyond pale. Immediately, I was on my feet. “What? What happened?”Emily gasped. “Juniper?”“Emily.” Juniper forced a smile. “I can’t wait to hug you and

The minute felt like an hour as I thought about what I was going to do to Maya when I got my hands on her. No way was I letting her go back to her father. I didn’t need evidence or court to rip the man from limb to limb. What I needed was her safe in my arms.“She left in one of the jeeps you came in with. My guards let her through because they assumed she had permission to leave.”“How long ago?”“Thirty minutes.”Thirty minutes. I looked at my wolves. “Let’s go.”We followed her tracks for hours, my wolf growing crazier and crazier by the second. Then, when I smelled the smoke, I knew why.There were dozens of wolves on the scene, all drowning out the original scents, but they were keeping the fire from spreading. Duke hadn’t even put the car in a full stop before I jumped out, the blood draining from my face. The jeep had smashed into a tree, and it was a blazing inferno.“This your fucking truck?” one of the wolves shouted. A woman nearby, a witch, blasted water from her hands to

HaydenThe scent of tilled earth met Hayden’s nostrils as he drove through the town. The team was spread through a handful of vehicles, each one keeping watch. They had just escorted the cargo van to and from the city for the latest shopping trip. Last time, Spencer had attempted to stop them from leaving.This time, they had barely seen a sign of any other wolf in the town. It seemed as though Monroe was keeping them busy elsewhere. This was why, along with food, Hayden bought a handful of camera drones from the city. Patience was a virtue, but sitting idly by without finding any additional information was a flaw that could easily prove fatal.He pulled to a stop in front of Monroe’s house and got out of the car, leaving the engine idling. The team all hopped out of their vehicles and gathered in formation around him.“Monroe,” Hayden bellowed. “Quit hiding and face me!”The door slammed open, but it wasn’t the possessed Alpha who came out. Instead, it was Spencer. He walked with a s

Mica didn’t want this to end. She never wanted it to end. And if that meant holding her questions inside and refusing to let any of them out? That’s just what it would have to be.She wasn’t going to give Hayden up. Now that she had him, she wanted to keep him. So she held him tighter, fighting against the pressure building through her. Instead, she kissed him, the way he wanted. And their eyes remained locked open on each other as they continued the dance as old as time.***Chirping birds just outside of the window woke Mica in the early morning. She sleepily buried her face into Hayden’s chest, unwilling to get up just yet. Their naked bodies pressed together, soft and warm in the cool morning. Being in Hayden’s arms always made her feel safe and secure. His strength seemed to seep into her, giving her everything she needed to face their situation.The previous night’s activities had kept them up quite late. Mica hoped she wouldn’t be too tired to perform her duties today. Not that

MicaThe pack took the news of Monroe's possession by a demon reasonably well. At least, none of them went running around flailing their hands in the air, proclaiming they were all doomed. What they whispered to each other was another thing altogether, but Mica didn’t spare the worry about that possibility. For the time being, she focused on taking care of injuries.Once she was done, Mica sought Hayden out. He was with his team, plotting out their next course of action. Mica found a spot at the side of the room to sit and wait until they were done.Maverick shot her an uneasy glance but focused back on Hayden. It seemed to Mica he didn’t want her there, but until his Alpha was going to say something, he’d accept it. Hayden hadn’t paid much attention to her entrance into the room except to briefly glance at her. “That’s enough for tonight,” he said finally. “Tomorrow, we’ll start training the pack on how to fight the beast-demons. Until they’re ready to fight, we’ll have to keep the

Ryder nodded, then shifted to his own human form. As he was arranging the wolves into teams, Hayden strode for the house. Mica greeted him at the door, armed with a kitchen knife. She glanced over at him, relief in her eyes, then headed outside to help Ryder. Hayden resisted the urge to grab her and kiss her.He let out a shaky breath, grounding himself, as he headed up the stairs. He stopped in his room for some clothes before heading to Echo’s room. The aura-demon possessing Echo was active in her circle of salt, trying to cross the barrier. When she saw him, a cruel smile twisted over her face.“How’s Mica? I do hope that she didn’t find herself caught up in a wolf fight. Such a weak little human wouldn’t stand much of a chance, after all.”Hayden ignored the obvious taunt. “What’s the name of your leader?”“Monroe.”“And your name?”“Echo.” That cruel smile was still in place.It was expected. No demon that Hayden ever met would admit to their own name. It made him wonder if they

HaydenAt the first howl, Hayden rushed to meet the attackers. He leaped from an upper window, exploding into his wolf form as he did so. Spencer howled again and charged over the fence at him. Hayden let out a howl of his own, rushing to meet him. They clashed head-on, fur and snarls flying through the air.Spencer lunged, his teeth white against his black fur. He feinted to the left, but Hayden anticipated his motion. He lightly leaped to the side and ducked, coming up at Spencer’s throat. Spencer clawed at his flank while the wolves of the pack clashed on every side.Pain burst through Hayden’s side as his teeth snapped just shy of Spencer’s jugular. Blood soaked through his fur. Spencer grabbed at his ruff, but Hayden twisted himself, rolling. He kicked all four feet into Spencer’s stomach, his claws ripping through fur. He flung Spencer through the air.Hayden jumped to his feet and took half a second to take stock of the others around him. His team was at the forefront of the fi

Mica smiled up at him, squeezing his arm. “And if they refuse to swear allegiance, they can’t stay. For now, though, I’m accepting them under my protection. Unless you wish for me to send them away, Alpha?”Hayden gave her a dirty look but jerked his chin toward the hastily built lean-to on the south side of the house. There were three such structures now. The south was for the unmated women, the north was for unmated men, and the west was for family groups. The special ops team all shared rooms inside the house now, too, with the other rooms holding any injured wolves.“You can keep them, for now,” Hayden said. “But see that you put them to work. I don’t want them causing us any trouble.”“Of course.” Mica bowed her head toward him, fighting back a smile.Unlike Monroe and his people, Hayden cared about the pack. He might say that he only returned because Ryder and the others from Bluebell Valley wanted to save the pack, but he did genuinely care. It reminded Mica so much of the Hayd

MicaMonroe sent someone to the house every day for the next few days, demanding Elin back. He even went so far as to send Elin’s father. Hayden refused every time, but only allowed one of them onto the property. Or, as Mica learned later, only one of them could come onto the property.Spencer, it seemed, had no demon influence on him, but many of Monroe’s people were possessed.Mica tried not to think about that. She tried not to think about her own mother under a demon's influence. The few times when she and Ryder ended up working together, Echo was a topic neither of them brought up. Mica couldn’t bring herself to ask. If Ryder said there was no way to save her, then the last bit of hope she clung to would shrivel up and disappear.“Mica, we’ve received three more women,” Tess told her one morning. “Clarissa, Monique, and Rachel.”“Really?” Mica reluctantly closed the laptop she’d been working at. “Spencer’s daughters?”Hayden had been up at the crack of dawn, and Mica had gotten u

Hayden chuckled, enjoying her demanding side. He pushed in until he was fully seated, groaning as her greedy heat sucked him in. Mica whimpered and Hayden rested his forehead against hers. He waited there, letting her adjust. Her fingers dug into his shoulders. She was the one that started moving first, rocking her hips back and forth to move him inside of her. Her eyes were at half-mast, her mouth slightly open. He swelled, his skin feeling too tight to contain him.She kissed him, panting into his mouth. Hayden started to move, slowly at first but with increasing momentum. Mica matched his rhythm, her hips thrusting upward. Soon, she was crying out every time they came together. Hayden gritted his teeth, fighting back on the pressure building inside of him. Hewould see her finish first. He was getting dangerously close, so he reached between them and stroked her clit again.“Hayden,” she cried out. A flush rose up her neck and face. Her back arched, and her mouth fell open.“That’s

Mica shivered. “But I’m fat.”“You are beautiful, Mica.” He ran his hand down her hip. “Your skin is soft and smooth. Your breasts are perfect. I want to get to know the rest of you.”He slid his hand between her legs and cupped her. She felt even better without the clothes between them. The heat of her sex radiated into his hand, already growing damp. He massaged her slightly, watching her reaction. The tension melted from her shoulders. Her head fell slightly back and she let out a soft moan.“You’re beautiful,” he repeated. “And I want you.”Mica turned back to him, letting her legs open for him. Her sea-green eyes didn’t leave his face.“I think that’s the first time someone didn’t say ‘You’re not fat, you’re beautiful’ even though I am… without a doubt—” She cut off, biting her lip.“Do you want to continue?” he asked.Mica nodded. “Yes.”Hayden waited a moment before adjusting his hold on her. He slid two fingers deeper, exploring her. They brushed over her entrance, already wet
