The Alpha's Warlock Amplification
Chapter 17 AmplificationComing around after being knocked unconscious by magic was the kind of thing that sounded like it ought to be a slow process of unpleasant discovery. Where am I? What happened? Are these spelled manacles around my wrists? My gods, what’s happened?Not so much. The instant consciousness hit, it hit hard, and all the details became painfully, instantly obvious.I’d been taken captive by a warlock, although not one of the ones who’d worked me over before—I could smell his magic, that dark, sharp, ozone-tinged smell that had hit me in the alley, even if I didn’t recognize the scent of him in particular.The manacles had my wrists in their cold, heavy grip, and the rest of me sat and slumped on yet another fucking concrete floor.The panic hit me simultaneously. I bent to the side as much as I could, vomiting every drop of the shots and everything else I’d ever consumed, it felt like, all over the floor and spattering my leg. My heart rabbited, and I couldn’t fee

Chapter 18 The BarrierScarecrow stumbled back a step, shock in every line of his body, and Curly let out a strangled sound.I pressed myself against the wall, heart pounding.That was Calder, no doubt about it: the glow of his silver eyes and the shape of his nose and cheekbones confirmed it.But he was a monster. I couldn’t imagine being truly afraid of him, not anymore. But monstrous was the only word that fit. He’d half-shifted, but not into any creature I could instantly recognize; a polar bear, maybe. Something huge, something with white fur to match the thick growth on his bare arms and chest…something even larger than Calder was in his human form, given that his head now brushed the ceiling and his shoulders almost spanned the double-width doorway. Six-inch gleaming claws extended from his fingers, and his jaw had stretched, morphed, into something distorted and totally inhuman, large enough to accommodate his dripping fangs.He looked like a cross between the snow monster f

Chapter 19 A Lucky ManOh my God, they’re both dead! A deep voice. Panicked. Familiar. Floating through my head, and then fading away again.No, they aren’t. I can still see their bond. Lighter. Also panicked. Also familiar.Shouts, and thumps, and curses. More voices, the same two and two others. Arguing about magic, on and on. Something about a door.The barrier. There’d been a barrier.Movement. The voices sounding closer, relieved, but still frantic. Pain and lightness, because I couldn’t feel my head. Had I lost it? I’d lost my spleen.As if someone had read my mind: You know, the irony is, his spleen would be really fucking useful right about now. It’s part of the circulatory—Please shut the fuck up. That was the lighter voice again.Everything went away again.I jolted in and out of consciousness, hating it more each time. This felt like…I’d escaped. Hadn’t I? And it’d been like this. Moments of sensation and pain, interspersed with nothingness.Calder had taken me somewhere

Chapter 20 Screw the Bond“Jared,” he whispered. And he shut his eyes again, squeezing them tight. Was that…yeah, it was, a tear escaping at the corner of his eye. When he opened them again, both were shiny from more than the glow of his alpha magic. “You’re. Fuck. Jared, you’re alive.”I gazed into his eyes, caught and held like I had been the very first time I’d looked at him. I’d been afraid of him then.Fear was the last thing I could ever imagine feeling for him now.“Because you saved my life. You came for me. You—I’m never going to forgive you for throwing your life away for me.” I stroked the side of his face, and he turned his head and pressed a kiss to my palm, still gazing up at me.“Same to you,” he said, his voice still weak but with a growl to it all the same. “You made me break my promise. I almost killed you. Again.”The look in his eyes and the way he kissed my fingertips on the last word kind of negated the growl, and I found myself smiling down at him, helplessly,

Epilogue Fucking Saskatchewhat?Three weeks after our near-death experience, Calder woke me before the sun was even all the way up by biting me on the ass, in the curve right where it met my leg.I jolted up onto my elbows with a squeak, and Calder shoved me right back down again.“I’m busy,” he growled against the crease of my ass. “Hold still.”Yeah, I’d promised to do whatever he told me, but I still started to argue. So sue me. I liked to argue.But when he pulled my cheeks apart and thrust his tongue inside me without so much as buying me a drink first, I collapsed back down onto my face and did what he fucking told me after all.He ate me out until I was writhing against the mattress, desperate to get off, and then slid up the bed and fucked me just like that, holding me down by the neck and making me his bitch, a little rougher than usual with only his spit for lube.It helped that he’d left me wet and open after fucking me twice the night before—only who was counting.And I l

Mismatched Mates #5Lost Touch Chapter 1 We Got OutFor what felt like weeks, I drifted. Hands moved me and rearranged my floppy limbs, voices echoed through my hollow mind. I lay on something soft, a change from before—I thought so, at least.Sometimes I felt a little warmer or a little cooler. But nothing hurt.Even in my state of partial consciousness, that seemed odd. Very odd, in fact. Because I knew I’d been hurt. Injured, at least, and that should’ve included the other meaning of hurt, shouldn’t it? I had bandages. I was aware of having them changed: unwrapped, ointment, wrapped again.But I couldn’t feel anything else beyond the very basic fact of being horizontal, or the sensation of touch versus air on my skin.They’d hurt me. Again and again, they’d hurt me…until it didn’t hurt anymore. And that had been worse.But it took me a long time to begin to remember.The memories came back along with my ability to begin to use my own body again.I’d been in prison. Not the offici

Chapter 2 That Should’ve Felt GoodDrew had to be persuaded to let me close the bathroom door, apparently convinced I’d fall over and bash my head and die if he let me out of his sight for so much as an instant.By the way I had to lean on the sink and pant with the exhaustion of getting out of bed and walking across the room once that door had closed on his worried frown, I thought his concern might be justified.But I needed a minute alone. I needed privacy. I had to get my bearings without his life-saving but, admittedly, very slightly overbearing presence. Not that I blamed him for it given how much help I’d already required. He’d muttered under his breath, while turning as red as a tomato, that he’d been the one taking care of my bodily needs while I lay in bed, and that I shouldn’t be embarrassed. So sure, he’d been caring for me like a cross between a nurse and a mom for more than two freaking weeks, something I put away in the back of my mind to hopefully never see the light

Chapter 3 So I Bit YouPushing the bedroom door open revealed a hallway and a couple of other open doors, through which I caught glimpses of another bedroom and bathroom. When I peered curiously into the second bedroom, it looked like a guest room, lacking much by way of personality or clutter except for the pile of clothes on a chair. The room I’d been living in, by contrast, had the touches that suggested constant occupancy: a few bits and bobs on top of the dresser, an open closet door revealing hung-up shirts and suits, toiletries in the en suite bathroom.Drew had given me his own bed, then.I found myself smiling as I headed down the stairs at the end of the hallway. Something about his thoughtful, devoted care felt important to me, and more than simply because of the contrast to what had come before. Like I might not remember my former life, but the emotional impressions of it had lingered somehow…and those impressions didn’t include anything quite as wonderfully kind as Drew

The Alpha's Warlock Epilogue :You Don’t Want a Choice
EpilogueYou Don’t Want a Choice“Mr. Castelli,” Laura said, and smiled warmly. “Go right in. He’s never too busy for you.”“You know it’s Blake.” She shook her head, laughed, and went back to typing.I hadn’t yet given up on trying to convince Declan’s assistant that I didn’t deserve any particular formality; after nearly four months of trying, though, I’d started to fear it was hopeless.I set the double latte I’d grabbed on my way at the edge of her desk—if she insisted on calling me Mr. Castelli, I’d at least make sure she said it with affection—and stepped into Declan’s office.He glanced up from his laptop and then immediately back down again, which I knew meant “I’ll forget what I was typing if I don’t do it right now.” At first that’d hurt my feelings. Shades of being treated like an unwelcome and disliked inconvenience at Castelli Industries, of so many times I’d been called on the carpet in my father’s office only to be ignored until he deigned to notice me. But I knew it w
The Alpha's Warlock A Lucky Man
Chapter 21A Lucky ManIf I’d really tried, I might’ve been able to look at a calendar and count how many times Declan had laid me out on his bed, naked and waiting for him to take what he wanted.But I didn’t need to count to know that it’d never been like this.He settled me on my back, head carefully placed on a pillow, kneeling between my legs and leaning down to stroke a hand through my hair and down my cheek, coming to rest across my throat. Instead of a threat, it felt like safety.All right, a little bit of a threat.But that only had my cock perking up, getting harder every second that he pinned me down, glowing eyes fixed on my face with an intensity that would’ve had any sane man running away screaming.Or spreading his legs.I went with option two, letting my knees fall open to give him full access, my arms relaxed at my sides. Touching him—I wanted to, and I would. But right now I knew what he needed from me, and that was complete surrender, allowing him to re-stake his
The Alpha's Warlock Ten Years Ago
Chapter 20Ten Years AgoNo matter how many times I’d daydreamed about Declan kissing me, the reality far outstripped the fantasy—and how often could you say that about anything? His mouth took control of mine the same way his body had taken control of me so many times, opening me and tasting me and laying me bare for him to use however he wanted.Which happened to be what I wanted too, so badly that I ached for it. His tongue teased between my lips and twined with mine as his arms tightened, gathering me so close that not a millimeter of space was left in between us.Declan kissed me until I couldn’t breathe, my lungs hot and laboring. All the pain and fear of the last few hours melted away, a much better and more natural kind of magic than the ones I’d experienced so far tonight.I pressed against him, kissing him back with everything I had, trying to spread my legs and wrap myself around him and take him into me so that he’d never leave.Declan tore his mouth away and lifted his h
The Alpha's Warlock My Life Mattered
Chapter 19My Life MatteredWhen I woke up, the SUV was moving—but I couldn’t shift so much as a muscle. My head had gotten crammed against the door and my neck ached like a bitch. My arms lay limp, one dangling to the floor of the car and the other on my leg. I tried to twitch a finger.No go.I couldn’t open my eyes, either, or speak. My autonomous functions weren’t affected, though: I could still hyperventilate. Lucky me.Kidnapped. I’d been fucking kidnapped, and the first thing Declan would do would be call me. No doubt they’d gotten rid of my phone. Then he’d look for me. He wouldn’t find me. And then he’d probably request—and be allowed, professional courtesy and all that—to review the security footage of me leaving the party and the path I’d followed from there.For a brief, shining instant, I almost felt relieved. Declan would look for me, he’d see the video and know—despair squeezed my chest into a tight ball.He’d see me looking nervous and running out of the building as i
The Alpha's Warlock This Won’t Go On
Chapter 18This Won’t Go OnDeclan hustled me out the door the second I emerged from the bathroom, ushering me downstairs and into a waiting limo. A nice one: black, not too stretched, no neon lights or anything tacky, nothing I’d have to be embarrassed about riding in.I tried to focus on how good it felt to be wearing decent clothes, going somewhere in a respectable vehicle, and for fuck’s sake, actually leaving the Morrigan and going somewhere, rather than on being in an enclosed space with Declan and our combined scents of sex and alpha desire.If I focused on that, I’d end up begging him to knot me in the car after all.The limo pulled out of the Morrigan’s driveway and into traffic on the Strip. It was Friday night stop and go. Maybe we had time for a fuck after all?“Where are we going? Am I allowed to ask?”“Not far,” he said, putting paid to my hopes. “A few blocks. If I’d been going with Wa—colleagues I probably would’ve walked. I thought you might appreciate going in style
The Alpha's Warlock I Missed Your Voice
Chapter 17I Missed Your VoiceSince I’d never slept in Declan’s bed before, I woke up confused, disoriented, and with a mouth that tasted like someone had murdered a particularly sandy desert and buried its corpse under my tongue.Well, that last part didn’t have anything to do with Declan’s bed, to be fair.I rolled over and groaned, throwing an arm across my eyes to keep the sunlight out, because someone had left the blinds wide fucking open when he got up and went to work.I knew I’d be fine once I had a couple of glasses of water and a bite to eat; hangovers weren’t really that much of a thing for werewolves without serious effort involving multiple illicit substances, and I hadn’t been to a party that good in like, six months. But seriously. Close the damn blinds. Fuck.It crossed my mind to find my phone, make some coffee, and send him a text complaining about the window.And then I sat bolt upright, head in my hands, and let out another groan.I’d slept in his bed. We hadn’t
The Alpha's Warlock Kind of Endearing
Chapter 16Kind of EndearingI woke up the next day just after eight o’clock, early by my previous standards but late by the standards of the company I kept these days. The cold coffee pot, holding only a few teaspoons of dregs, told me that Declan had been up and gone for hours. The usual hundred dollar bill sat beside it.That felt a little bit like I’d been slapped. I’d sat there and worked on that stupid spreadsheet for three full hours the day before without even getting up for a glass of water. I’d only stopped when Declan stood, put on his jacket, and told me it was quitting time.But apparently he assumed I’d be right back to blackjack and vodka today.Well, fuck him.I made a fresh pot of coffee, ordered some room service—an omelet, because I knew if I had any carbs at all I’d fall asleep with my face in the keyboard—and dressed in the closest thing I had to what the other people I’d seen in the offices had been wearing, black slacks and a blue button-down. I couldn’t wear a
The Alpha's Warlock Try Me
Chapter 15Try MeLetting it all go seemed easy at first.I’d spent so many years showing—and allowing myself to feel—only the most surface of emotions: anger, entitlement, arrogance. Under the circumstances, I chose to temporarily trade those in for indifference, apathy, and resignation, but it was just as fake and just as likely to keep people from looking any deeper.My family hadn’t looked any deeper. Neither had Declan. Clearly, no one wanted to.And it worked. When I didn’t try to fight back, didn’t bother arguing or demanding answers, Declan didn’t go out of his way to humiliate or torment me aside from the rough, careless way he used me. He texted me at some point during the day to let me know when he wanted me available to be fucked, I awaited him obediently, and he fucked me. Sometimes he put me on my knees instead, or in addition to. I opened my mouth or spread my legs, and I moaned and cried out when he made me come, but I didn’t talk more than I absolutely had to.I took
The Alpha's Warlock What’s Worse?
Chapter 14What’s Worse?Declan’s knot hadn’t gone down at all by the time I blinked my eyes open and slowly came back to reality, lying on my side with Declan wrapped around me from behind. The bite he’d left on my neck throbbed in time with my heartbeat. I could feel his, too, syncing with mine and vibrating through my back.And I felt safe again, which made me want to throw up and then run away screaming.Well, he’d already made me scream. Running away was out. And it’d suck to throw up all over the bed and be stuck here.Unfortunately, that left me with nothing to do but lie there enclosed in his arms listening to his steady breaths in my ear, savoring the heat of his body and the softness of the bed.Ugh. Savoring. I really was, and it made me swallow hard against a wave of real nausea.But it suddenly occurred to me that maybe Declan felt something similar. Pheromones. Hormones. Borderline mating-magic. I couldn’t be the only one completely at their mercy, could I? He might not
