CASSANDRA

With the alpha guy yakking to Agnes and Joel, I browsed the books to keep myself busy. I saw some of my favorite authors there, much to my pleasant surprise. Seems like we had something in common. I loved reading. Yeah, I was a nerd. But no one had to know, right? A werewolf nerd. I couldn’t help the insane laughter bubbling up in my throat.

“What’s so funny?” a deep, sexy voice asked right behind me.

I wheeled around right into the circle of hard, muscled arms. Holy shit! Why was he so close?

“Are you creeping up on me, Connor?” I let mild irritation sharpen my tone. I felt flustered, but I wouldn’t give him the satisfaction of knowing how flustered he made me feel. Like panty-damping flustered.

The damn man smiled, and two dimples appeared on both cheeks. Of course, there would be dimples! As if he wasn’t sexy enough, damn him. And that made him dangerous in my book.

“No, I wouldn’t do such a thing. I see you’re admiring my book collection. You like to read?” He wasn’t letting go of me. I was intensely aware of the heat from his hands on my hips. His lips were moving, but I couldn’t understand a thing. My brain suddenly turned to oatmeal. There was only one thought in my depraved mind and that was I wanted to taste those lips. Those plump, gorgeous lips…

“Cassandra?” The sound of my name snapped me back to my senses. What the hell was I thinking?

“Umm…” I batted his hands away from my hips and took two steps away. “Yes, yes, I like to read. Where are my parents?”

“Oh, they went home,” he said. “I thought I could show you around the pack grounds. Introduce you to some of the pack members.”

I didn’t want to be alone with him. “Maybe some other time. I should go.” I hustled towards the door leading to the stairs. “Thank you for breakfast, though.” I remembered my manners in time.

“Wait up!” The demand in his tone stopped me dead in my tracks. I couldn’t move. As much as I wanted to. “I need to talk to you, Cassandra.”

I turned around slowly. “About what?” I asked sharply, narrowing my eyes. Dangerous.

“About your place in the pack.” He wasn’t smiling then and suddenly my legs moved towards him out of their own.

“Are you doing this? Are you making me walk to you?” I screeched.

He chuckled. “Yes, and no. Your wolf must submit to me. She has no choice but to obey her alpha’s command.”

Oh, fuck this. Again, with the wolf schtick. “I don’t have a wolf! You people are all batshit crazy.”

He held out his hand for me to take. “Please, come. Sit with me. Let’s talk about this, Cassie.” And hell, if I couldn’t resist his soft voice. It was hypnotic. I took his hand and let him lead me to the lounge. “See, it’s not that bad to comply.”

“I don’t like not being in control.” I told him rather breathlessly. He pulled me down next to him, our thighs resting against each other. He still held my hand.

“Sometimes to give up control is freeing, Cassie.” Blue eyes smiled into mine. “Why is it so hard for you to accept your wolf spirit?”

Ripping my hand out of his, I tapped my temple. “It’s not real. Next thing, you’ll tell me vampires exist and fairies and…” I didn’t know half the urban legends.

“I hate to break it to you… All of them are real, except the tooth fairy, Santa Claus and the Easter Bunny. They are not,” he said without cracking a smile.

I burst out laughing, holding my stomach and letting it rip. “Oh…” I wiped tears out of my eyes. “You guys are good.”

“Cassandra….”

“How about a demonstration, Wolf man?” I wasn’t laughing anymore. “I’ll believe it if you turn right here and now, in front of me.” Let’s see if he would rise to the challenge.

He looked hesitant. Of course he hesitated! He maybe had a big black dog that looked like a wolf following him around. That was what I saw on the porch.

“Are you sure?” he asked, his brows lifted slightly. “I don’t want to freak you out.”

“I don’t think… Hey!” I clapped my hands over my eyes. Because he pulled his shirt over his head and kicked off his shoes. Trousers followed. Okay, I peeked between my fingers. I’ve never seen a naked man in the flesh. I’ve looked at p**n- I mean, who doesn’t–but this was actual flesh and oh god, so much of it.

“I don’t want to ruin my clothes.” He said, but his voice had changed, became rougher.

My mind said run, you fool, but my stubborn body refused. I sat glued to the couch, peeking between my fingers. And what I saw next boggled my mind.

Fur appeared on his face and spread rapidly over his body. He sank to the floor on all fours, face elongating. I heard a popping, snapping sound as his bones shifted. They shifted! There was a buzzing sound in my ears and the lounge swam in front of my eyes.

I bit my tongue, hard. I was not fainting. I don’t faint.

“No. Fucking way,” I gasped.

There he was, a big, black as midnight wolf, biggest creature I’ve ever seen. No Connor in sight. He sat on his haunches and grinned at me, red eyes glinting like rubies.

‘That proof enough for you, Cassandra?’ I heard his voice droning in my head.

This was impossible. But there he was. “I have just crossed over to crazy land.” I tasted blood in my mouth. This was real. Then I fainted.

***

I woke up to Connor’s worried face hovering over me on the couch. Screaming like a banshee, I bolted from the couch. I didn’t get far, though.

“Cassie!” Again, that voice froze me to the floor. I had no control over my shaking body. “I’m sorry. It wasn’t the best idea to shock you like that.”

Connor was behind me, stroking my upper arms vigorously. “Are you alright? Can I get you some water?”

“I could use a brandy. Or vodka or jet fuel.” I said through chattering teeth.

“You’re underaged,” he said with a laugh. “I’ll get you some juice.” He put his arm around my shoulders and steered me back to the lounge. Thank Jesus, he was dressed.

    AGNESJoel and I walked to his house in uncomfortable silence. Passersby glanced at us with open curiosity. A human woman at Wolf Creek, unbelievable! I could almost hear their thoughts.It’s not that I expected Joel to welcome me back with open arms, but this—this coldness—it really stung. He had changed from the passionate man who declared his love for me in a whirlwind romance had become this hardened, closed off man. He could hardly look at me and when he did, I couldn’t bear to see the swirling hurt and distrust in his eyes. I did this. I made him this way.I wanted so desperately to fix it. For all our sakes.He held the door open for me, but didn't step inside himself. I called out his name, my voice trembling with hope and uncertainty. "Joel...""I have work to do," he replied, his voice devoid of warmth. He turned to leave, but I couldn't let him go so easily. I reached out and grabbed his arm, pleading with him.

    Cassandra“I must go back. Agnes would be worried,” I tried to convince Connor. He didn’t seem to be in a hurry to get rid of me. Don’t know what his deal was. The way he looked at me… like I was his favorite dessert or something. It made me uncomfortable. But I also felt something else. Lust. At least I think that’s what it was. He sat close to me on the couch, his knee touching mine. I twirled the empty glass in my hands, just to do something. If I leaned closer to him…No, hell no! This kind of thinking is a sure-fire way of getting into shit. He’s a goddamn werewolf, for fuck’s sake! Oh, but apparently, I was one as well. Yes, there is that.“They know you’re with me.” he stood suddenly. “Come,” he held out his hand. “Let me show you the training grounds.”My body seemed to have a mind of its own where Connor was concerned. I let him lead me out of the lounge. “Training grounds?” I asked, perplexed. Was this some kind of military center?“Yes. All members of the pack need to train

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   Jealousy

    CONNORMy mind went crazy when I saw Cassandra checking out my guys and Ray flirting back. I was so possessive and jealous; it was intense. It was super unsettling and embarrassing, like a crazy storm of emotions going on.My heart pounded in my ears as I tried to regain my composure. These men, my friends, my brothers, had always been there for me. They were my best fighters, loyal and dedicated. But at that moment, I had this intense urge to rip their throats out for trying to steal Cassandra's attention.‘It's the mate bond, Connor. It can't be helped,’ Miles said. He felt the same surge of possessiveness because of the mate bond. ‘You are their Alpha first.’ Miles continued.I ran my hand over my face, trying to calm the storm raging inside me. I was their alpha first, and they should respect that. But the way Cassandra had looked at me, it had ignited something wild within me, something I couldn't fully control.With a heavy sigh, I made my way down the hallway towards the men's

So I couldn’t look at guys, but he could cuddle a girl right there in the street for anyone to see?Agnes rushed downstairs to see what the noise was all about. “Cassie? What happened?”I stomped past her into the kitchen. “I don’t want to talk about it.” Found a glass in the cupboard and filled it with water straight from the tap.“Did Alpha Connor say something to upset you?” Agnes followed me into the kitchen.I drank the water and slammed the glass onto the counter. Made for him, huh! I leaned against the counter, looking at my mother. Seemed like we shared the same poor taste in men.“Honey, you know you can talk to me.” She reached out to touch my arm, her brown eyes sympathetic. But I was still angry at her.“Really, Mom?” Sarcasm dripped from my tone. “What can you tell me that will make this better?” I folded my arms across my chest and glared at her. “Can you

    Agnes knocked on the bedroom door after Connor left.“I assume you’re no longer mad at Connor?” she said, leaning against the wall. “He was smiling when he left.”I lay on the bed, hugging the pillow against my chest. It was a poor substitute for him, but it would have to do. His cologne still lingered in the room. “Yeah, I guess you can say so.” I sat up, smiling.“I wish you would stop being angry with me, Cassie.” Agnes shoved off from the wall and sat on the bed next to mine. “We’ve always had a good mother-daughter relationship, and I would hate for this to ruin it.”I sighed heavily. Anger was a draining emotion and no matter what, I loved my mother. She wasn’t perfect, but neither was I. “I’m not angry, Mom. Just disappointed.”She looked down at her hands in her lap. “I understand that, Cassandra. There is no excuse for what I did, except to say that when you have kids of your own, you will understand a mother would do anything to safeguard her children.”I shrugged. She might

Too many years have passed. Years in which I had suffered from the loss of my soulmate.I couldn’t even reject her because she was human. It would have no effect on her. but it would kill me for sure. I still loved her, but she broke my heart into a million pieces.Although I understood her motives and knowing Alpha Troy, she must have been terrified beyond reason, I was still deeply disappointed that she couldn’t confide in me. And keeping my pup from me, that was unforgivable.Cassandra. The moment she stepped out of the car, my wolf Ross recognized her as ours. At first, I tried to deny it. The anger and pain I felt seeing Agnes were too much at that moment.Cassandra’s animosity towards me hurts me more than I care to admit. It wasn’t my fault that I missed her childhood, but it was obvious she blamed me.‘Yeah,

    ConnorI was up before dawn, having spent a restless night thinking about Cassie and what I planned to do. She needed to be accepted into the pack as soon as possible. Maybe even tonight. Of course, there had to be a ceremony, as was our custom, and a party afterward. I only wished it could be our union ceremony. But all in good time.After training, I would give orders to my chefs to prepare a feast for the night. Joel, my gamma Eric and his mate will see to the preparations needed for the ceremony. The elders would need to be present as well. I wasn’t looking forward to that, particularly. But it was necessary.Miles worried they would object to her being accepted because of Agnes.“Why the hell would they, Miles? She’s a werewolf.” His constant worrying was exhausting.‘She’s half human, Connor. That could be grounds for objections, especially if you tell them she’s our mate.’“Well, that’s why we wait until she has her first turn. So, stop worrying about it!” Gods, he was just loo

    AGNESI was alone in the house, or so I thought, when I went downstairs to make some coffee and a bite to eat. But what I found was Joel, busy making breakfast. He was shirtless. I stood in the doorway, watching the muscles in his back ripple underneath his bronzed skin as he whisked eggs into a bowl. I shouldn’t have stared, but I couldn’t help it. He was even more handsome than he was eighteen years ago. Only now his body had filled out, was no longer that of a boy. He was all lean, hard muscle, broad shoulders and narrow hips. His fiery hair was long and curled on his shoulders. I never thought I'd be into a guy with a beard, especially one as wild as his, but it suited him. “Are you going to stand there gawking at me the whole day or are you going to give me a hand?” he drawled without turning around.How did he know…? Of course. Werewolf senses. “I wasn’t gawking.” My face felt like it was on fire.“Whatever you say.” He turned, and I saw a long scar marring the skin on the l

    I woke to find Connor sitting on the edge of the bed, his back facing me. Reaching out, I touched his shoulder, and he turned his head to look at me. What I didn’t expect to see was the dark frown marring his features. Self-consciously, I covered myself with the blanket. Was he angry? Did I not please him?“Connor?”“This shouldn’t have happened. Did you take your suppressant like I told you to?” his voice was distant, and it shocked me more than a slap in the face. “I hoped to the gods you took your birth control. Although I doubt it would be effective at this stage.”But along with the shock and the hurt came righteous anger and indignation. “Of course I did! Good God! You make it sound like I deliberately seduced you!” I jumped up, taking the blanket along and there it was, the bloodstain on the white sheet, like an accusation.His eyes traveled to the spot and back to me. “Didn’t you, though? Your pheromones were off the charts. I had no control.” His blue eyes narrowed suspicious

But a part of me was ecstatic that he was, especially the part that was pulsating with want.‘He’s coming for us, honey,’ Sage purred. Her voice sounded smug, as if she planned everything.“You did this.” I accused her. “You made this worse.” My body felt as if I were on fire, the heat pulsing through my nerve endings, electrifying my most intimate parts. One touch and I would certainly combust.‘I might have amped it up a bit. But you’ll thank me later,’ she said with a giggle, and retreated.“Cassie,” Connor burst through the bathroom door, naked and oh, so gorgeous. His eyes glowing with his wolf near the surface. The grittiness in his voice sent a shiver through me, down to my pussy.“Connor…” I turned to him, begging him for help with my eyes. “I don’t know what’s happening,” I moaned. “I’m burning up.”The distance

    ConnorStacey’s plump lips brushed against mine. Her body, so soft and pliant in my arms, was as I remembered. I had committed every detail of her to memory, from the sound of her laughter to the way her skin felt against mine, and it used to haunt me relentlessly after our breakup.I was tempted, I won’t lie. Thinking of how her body moved with mine when we used to make love, it was magical. But…“We can’t do this,” I said and pushed her away gently. “I am not a cheater, Stacey.”I ignored the hurt flooding her green eyes. She didn’t reply.Miles exhaled a deep breath of relief. ‘You had me going there for a while, Connor.’“We must head back to the pack.” I looked around for something to cover myself with. Couldn’t go driving around Santa Barbara naked. There were dust covers on the furniture in the living area. I grabbed one and draped it around me like a Roman toga. It was just large enough to cover the important parts. “Let’s go.”On the drive back to Wolf Creek, I kept thinking

I haven’t even given that any thought. “I… I don’t know, don’t think so.” Unless they discover his body. My fingerprints were all over that statue. The visual images of the police executing a nation-wide manhunt for my mother and me had my heart hammering in my chest, making it harder to breathe. Oh, God, I didn’t want to go to jail! Imagine wolfing out in a cell. They would sure as hell shoot me. Or worse, send me to a lab to experiment on.I sank to the floor, gasping for breath.“What’s wrong?” Joel asked, bending over me. “You need water?” He swung around to grab a bottle from the counter and handed it to me.I took careful sips, and gradually my wheezing breath returned to normal. He helped me up and made me sit on a bed.“I just hit him. With a bronze statue. It wasn’t planned or anything. He hurt my mother.” Words just spilled out of

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   A Warning

    Not wanting to spend any more time with Stacey than was necessary, I introduced her briefly to the staff and hurried to my office to catch up on the administration. Not that there was a lot for me to do, because everyone took pride in their work and there were hardly any problems. I answered emails, ordered supplies where needed and read the reports on the undergoing renovations.A client contacted me regarding a historical building that he wanted us to renovate. I sent him a reply promising him to inspect the site today and let him know if I was interested. Keen to get out of the office and out of Stacey’s way, I finished up quickly and was just about to leave when Shelly called out to me.“Alpha Connor.” She was slightly out of breath when she came waddling over to me, being heavily pregnant. “Stacey will have to accompany you on your inspection. Alpha Troy requested a full report on all the sites.” She propped a checklist into Stacey’s hands and basically shoved her at me. “Have fu

    ConnorNow that Cassie was taken care of, I must concentrate on my business. My pack owns three restoration companies in Santa Barbara. It won’t make us billionaires, but we couldn’t complain either. The work was satisfying for those who loved to work with their hands, which a lot of the pack members did. Now that father gave his position as alpha over to me, it was also my responsibility to ensure that business ran smoothly.Every shop had a manager which father trusted implicitly, but I still had to show my face at least once a week to check on operations. I was on my way to my SUV when I ran into Stacy.“Connor, may I speak to you for a minute?” Stacy approached me. She looked stunning, as always, dressed in a light cotton pantsuit that molded her curves in all the right places. Her hair and make-up were faultless despite the sweltering California heat.She would have made an awesome luna. She was elegant, polite, and submissive. If it weren’t for her cheating on me, she would have
