Arella’s POV

“I don’t sense any magic coming from her,” a strange voice said somewhere far away. “Are we sure she’s human?”

Magic?!

Are we sure she’s human?

What kind of questions were those? And goodness gracious, what was that smell? It smelled like a hospital only a million times more potent. If I could, I would have scrunched my nose. But I couldn’t because, for some reason, my body was completely unresponsive.

Why couldn’t I move?

Mild panic started to sliver into my chest and I found it hard to breathe. I tried to think of a reason, but my mind came up blank. I remembered arguing with Zane that morning – which wasn’t really that out of the ordinary. I swear, sometimes that man lives to make me old. No one had ever tested my patience the way Zane did.

The stubborn, insurable, arrogant---

    Zane’s POV“Weak,” I snorted at my son as he sprawled on the ground, struggling to get up after the harder-than-necessary blow I’d just delivered.“I-I’m sorry, father,” Cain whined, tears in his eyes. My wolf let out a snarl, and clawed my insides, making pain coil inside of me. Because a part of me did feel bad for doing this. A part of me wanted to reach out and comfort him. To tell him that he did well. That I could see the improvements and the efforts of his hard work---But then I remembered the price of those emotions. How they had made me weak. And who, in the end, paid the ultimate price…My Luna Queen…My mate!Her blood was on my hands because of that weakness…So I took those useless emotions and stuck them someplace where the sun didn’t shine. I didn’t show any weakness. I wouldn’t. Not in front of my pack and not in front of my children. I refused to let them suffer because of my weakness.Not anymore…“Don’t be sorry,” I snarled, spinning on my heels and heading back to

    Zane’s POV“My King?” the delta said, causing me to stop and face him. I was heading back to my office after the fencing lesson with my son. Cain was a fast learner and soon he’d be able to beat even his seniors. Perhaps I should find him a private tutor or---“We have a problem,” the delta stuttered, clearly nervous. His hands were shaking slightly as he reached out for the tablet. Papers were a thing of the past and I for one hated the wasteful things. I liked my trees in the forest, not on my desk as clutter…“What’s the problem?” I growled, not in the mood to even out my voice. My wolf was in a foul mood – the beast always was these days. More feral than sane on the good days and today he was pissed. He was angry that Noah had been there to help our son.That should have been our job!And he was pissed because I wasn’t going to go to Eva’s kindergarten performance tonight. Like my son, my daughter would learn to be strong. She’d learn not to need anyone in her life – not even her

    Warning: Any form of stereotyping is there for gags – not provocation…Arella’s POVWhen you’re alone in the woods--- sure, you fantasize about naked men all the time. Hell, my vibrator had been many different men – most of which were fictional characters in the steamy novels I read. But at the back of my mind, I’d always known that the moment the bliss was gone and I opened my eyes, they’d be gone too.This guy, however, didn’t go anywhere!And yeah, he was butt-naked too…Turning off the ATV, I took another glance at the man. Had someone spiked the bottles of Bailley’s I’d asked Donna to send me or was there seriously a naked man lying right in front of me?Because he was hot!What?I was a hot-blooded woman – sue me for noticing that a passed-out guy was hot! And after all the men I’d seen out here, he looked like he’d just stepped out of a wet dream. A very nice ass and broad shoulders, toned legs, and--- did I mention the nice ass?It was an exceptionally nice ass…Anyway---With

    Warning: Any form of stereotyping is there for gags – not provocation…Arella’s POVOk, so--- NOT dead!That’s a plus…And the good news kept coming because, despite the severe break in his leg, nothing else seemed to be broken. Or infected, which was a miracle in my book, considering that the bear trap looked as old as Methuselah and as rusty as a Cuban automobile.Still disinfected the shit out of it…And this time the man remained still as--- well, the dead, but knock on wood for me, will you?I was sort of walking a thin line here…The huge guy continued to sleep soundly, while I wrapped his leg and unceremoniously got him onto the stretcher.And I do sincerely mean unceremoniously!The guy weighed a ton! And no matter what training I’d done in the past or continued to do every day out here, could have prepared me for the density of this being.“What did they make you out of? Clay?!” I panted, as I finally was done moving the mountain of muscles, aching in places I didn’t know I h

    Zane’s POVDrugged!I couldn’t believe that a human – and a FEMALE at that! – got the drop on me and managed to knock me out. My wolf growled at the notion, but for once, he wasn’t fighting tooth and nail to have control of our body. He was, just like me, too sluggish and drugged up to do anything other than grumble.A small blessing for now…I tried to focus on my surroundings, getting a sense of where I was. It smelled like wood, warmth and---Dinner?!That had even my wolf forcing his head up. Because whatever was cooking smelled absolutely divine! Hell, it made my mouth salivate and reminded me that I hadn’t eaten in goddess only knows how long.But what was that sound?Music, I concluded and---Was that heavy metal?It was!Ramstein, if my German wasn’t getting too rusty and someone was singing along. Terribly, I might add! Hell, I’d heard dying animals make more tolerable noise than that! I fought against the sluggishness in my body and forced myself to turn toward the sound. Wi

    Zane’s POVI didn’t trust this female!Not only did she NOT back away from me when I growled at her, but she seemed completely immune to my wolf. Any ordinary human would be cowering in fear or running away when the beast made his presence known.But she didn’t even flinch!Was she a witch or something? The cramped cabin sort of fit the bill, but the very alive – although slightly odd – chameleon on the shelf told me otherwise. But if she wasn’t a witch, then what the hell was she? And how the hell did she seem to be able to calm my wolf?I didn’t like it!But I had to admit – even if only to myself – that it felt like a burden had been lifted off my shoulders. Even if it was only for a little while, I felt as if my body could finally relax, because I wasn’t fighting my wolf all the goddess damned time. My tense muscles lost some of their tension and I felt a little sore, but in a good way. My wolf wasn’t taking control and I felt that I could breathe a little easier.Which was fuckin

    Zane’s POVShe was kissing me!Her lips were pressed against mine in a firm kiss, preventing me from uttering another word. And to my surprise, I wasn’t throwing her off me. Instead, I was stuck with the urge to pull her closer. To deepen the kiss and dive into her.To see if she tasted as sweet as she smelled…But she broke the connection before I had time to react. The second her heat left mine, was when I became aware of the fact that her body had been pressed up against mine. And my wolf growled because we hadn’t had time to explore the feeling of it. Of what it felt like having that warm, luscious body pressed up against us. And more than anything, I wanted her back.But I resisted the urge to pull her back on me, wondering if there was something wrong with my wolf. If this was some side effect of whatever she’d drugged me with or if she was some kind of siren. Because never before had my wolf WANTED another female on him.Not since our mate…What the hell---?! “You were saying?

    Zane's POVI threw a glance down at myself and--- yeah, I was naked! I’d shifted and it had destroyed my clothes, but werewolves weren’t uncomfortable with nudity. I’d almost forgotten that humans tended to be shy about stuff like that. I hadn’t counted her as one of those people since---“You kissed me!” I exclaimed, wondering if that was something she did for kicks a lot. And why the hell that pissed me AND my wolf off…“To shut you up, because you were being an annoying prick,” she exclaimed, her back still turned. “Which only reaffirmed why I don’t want to see your dick!”Oh…?I was an annoying prick now, was I?I had no idea where the urge came from, but I just wanted to mess with this female. Hell, if I got to piss her off as badly as she’d pissed me off, I would count it as a win!And I knew exac

    Zane's POVTrue that I’d broken the law – first by killing “innocent” humans and then by turning Arella without her consent – and by law, they could, or more accurately, should arrest me and have me thrown in a cell. But my family hadn’t turned on me so far and they wouldn’t turn on me now.So--- innocent by default?“The law states that you need the king’s permission before turning a human,” I growled, letting him go and watching him barely catching himself as he stumbled to the floor. “I gave myself permission.”“But she doesn’t know,” Noah growled, pushing me away from our parents and getting between us, facing me. “And she’s not a mate---” He abruptly cut himself off, as if suddenly realizing something, and gave me a stunned glance.“Is she?”The seconds of tension and hopeful glances I got wer

    Zane's POV“Zane?” My father asked, the worry in his tone making my human half have some compassion towards the man. He was just worried about me, his son. Before me, he’d been the King of the Werewolves, and everything I knew about the kingdom, he’d taught me. He was a great father – strict but caring and kind to his pups. And I used to always listen to him and take his advice when I had tough decisions to make.Lately, that hadn’t been the case.I fought with him all the time, since he and Noah were the only ones who still could get away (and live) with that shit. They couldn’t take me in a physical fight and the few times we became physical, I remind them of that. Not that I actually wanted to hurt my family, but I’d been afraid that if I didn’t keep them at a distance, I would end up killing them…“They-they say you had human blood on you,” he continued, as my brother came up next to him, as if ready to intervene if my wolf t

    Zane’s POVI sat there, staring at her in the hospital bed. A whirlwind of emotions had washed through me the last couple of hours and, honestly, I felt exhausted.I felt guilty.I’d failed her…She’d almost died protecting me because she didn’t know that--- My wolf growled low, wishing he could kill those asshole humans again. But in a way, I also wanted to thank them. NOT for shooting my little angel, but--- if they hadn’t, then…I know I should feel like a bastard!I know I should feel bad for taking away her choice. That I’d turned her, without her even knowing what I was.Yet a part of me couldn’t be sorry.I’d already decided to show her what I was. After she caught me returning from the castle, I knew I wouldn’t be able to weasel my way out of it anymore. And while there would be consequences for my ac

    Zane’s POVFor a second, everything inside of me went black.There were no emotions.No senses.Nothing…Just a void of nothingness. All while a film played out in front of me.No sounds.No color.Nothing… Arella was in the line of fire.The man pulled the trigger.And I didn’t do anything!Nothing…I just stood there – frozen as I watched her jump in front of me. I didn’t act. I didn’t think. I didn’t--- Well, actually, I did think one thing:What the hell is that female doing here?And then I had dismissed her, counting on her to be smart enough to stay out of danger.Infuriating female!Sure, the man had a gun pointed toward me, but there was no bullet that could kill me. It had to be laced with silver or wolf’s bane to harm the King of t

    Arella's POV“I don’t know!” I yelled again and threw out my arms, forgetting that I had a loaded gun in my hands. Angry at myself now, I slammed it down on the table before turning to him again. “No woman knows how a man can tell her to calm down! That’s the point of being upset. You’re upset!”“Fine, be upset,” Zane growled back and folded his huge arms over his impressive chest. “But I’m not telling you shit until your ass has the fuck calmed down, so be my guest and sulk!”Silence!My pounding heart seemed to be the only thing that echoed in the quiet room. But surprisingly, it wasn’t speeding up like you might have expected it to do.It calmed…Because whether I liked it or not, I couldn’t control Zane. I couldn’t force anything out of him and, honestly, I was the one acting like a brat right now. Zane wanted to sha

    Arella's POVPain and betrayal raced hot through my veins and I hated the fact that my eyes stung with tears. Damn it! I ran for the chest and slammed it open, cursing myself for being so stupid. For still being so naïve, for letting myself---It hadn’t been touched.All of my weapons and magazines were all still there. He hadn’t taken off with them. With a strange sense of relief and surprise, I stood gaping at the chest for another moment. Why hadn’t he taken off with it, a part of me wondered? That part of me was also the part that accepted that I’d never be loved and accepted. That I was a fool for trusting men. That I was wrong in trusting Zane and his stupid words.Another part of me was confused.Why hadn’t he taken them when he had the chance? That part of me wondered. When he knew, that I was beginning to trust him? When I was giving in to his infuriating, demanding yet seductive presence

    The stereotypes are there for gags – please just laugh…Arella’s POVHe kissed me!Zane actually kissed me--- and I didn’t slap the living shit out of him! I honestly think that’s what shocked me the most. Not the fact that he was a divine kisser – I already suspected that he was… I mean, I’d seen his body. There was no way that a guy like that didn’t have a harem of women throwing themselves at him at every corner…And a part of me hated that!Hated that he probably had countless women begging for his attention. Women that had gone all the way and knew what that steel shaft felt like. Knew what it was like to have Zane fill them up completely--- while I’d pushed him away.Stupid!So stupid! Why had I done that? What was the harm again? I mean ranger and criminal sounded more like a bad Spanish soap opera o

    Zane's POVI waited until Arella was asleep before I stood and walked out of the cabin. I undressed and shifted into my huge brown beast that quickly ate up the distance between the cabin and the castle. I gave a quick greeting to the border patrols and again to the guards when we entered the castle. The sun had gone down a long time ago and it was well past midnight, so I didn’t bother asking where the children were. I might be a shitty father, but even I knew how to keep track of their bedtime.“Zane?”I spun around to see Noah giving me a surprised look.“What are you doing here?” he asked--- and my wolf let out a low growl.“He seriously needs to get laid!” my wolf gruffly huffed, in a voice I barely recognized. But that still didn’t stop me from mentally grinning. Yeah, that sounded like something my old wolf would have said. I snickered, and for a brief moment, wondered
