I cautiously made my way to the King’s private chambers. I could hear my uncle destroying furniture from down the hall. He had summoned me to him to handle a problem and it was clear from outside the room, it was a massive one. As an assassin, very little scared me, but the thought of facing my uncle’s wrath had my stomach twisting into knots. It wouldn’t matter that I was his nephew, nobody was safe from the King. I waited for the sounds of destruction to subside before knocking on the door.
“Enter!” The king boomed from the other side of the door.
“You summoned me, uncle?&rdq

Selene Things between Lucas and I had reached new levels of awkwardness after giving into our base desires the night before. He sulked around the apartment, flipping through the few magazines I had and channels on the television. I remained seated on my bed, looking for new constructions in secluded areas. I needed to find a place that had live wires but was far enough of the beaten path to avoid interruption by a passerby. I had been at it for hours, searching for permits and new utility connections, when I finally found the perfect place. I shot the address to Rory in text and dropped my phone on the bed. &

Lucas I had been sitting on the couch with Daniel watching a football game on television when a blinding pain ripped through me. Selene had done a fantastic job of shutting me off through the mate bond in our short time together, but this was something different. The bond was shattering, the shards tearing my soul to pieces as it did. Hades pushed forward, partially shifting my face to my wolf form, and released a mournful howl. I clutched my chest, trying to hold back the pain and collapsed forward, falling to the floor. I held myself up on one hand, the other clawing at my chest as if I cou

“Please don’t leave me.” I couldn’t believe the words had left my mouth, or that Maggie agreed to stay. Even the darkness in the immediate aftermath of Selene’s death hadn’t been as comforting as the idea of a friend who knew what I was going through. Maybe it had been weakness breaking through the cracks of my powerful Alpha exterior, but I knew I couldn’t keep it together without her. I laid in my bed, unable to sleep, feeling torn by the request I had made of Maggie before we went to our separate rooms. I had never shown weakness like that to anyone, not even my mate.

“I brought you lunch!” Maggie smiled as she waltzed into my office, Tupperware in hand. “I figured you’d be too busy to eat with processing all the refugees in the territory.” I motioned for her to take the seat across from me and join me. She had let me wallow in my grief for another week after I returned home before insisting I return to my duties as Alpha. Zane had been insanely grateful to her for getting me back to work. There was a long list of rogues fleeing Cerathe seeking membership in my pack and he couldn’t induct them. That was something only the Alpha could do. With the monthly haze rapidly approaching, it became more important then ever to get them settled in as members. The haze not only made wolves seek out sexual conquests, but

EJI watched in silent satisfaction as Selene’s body contracted as the electricity flowed through it. Her heart had already stopped, but I chose to leave the live wire tangled in the ladder rather than cut the power. The bug I had planted in Rory’s office had captured enough for me to know that she would be arriving soon. The longer I left Selene at the mercy of the electric current, the less likely the medic would be able to revive her. I should have been surprised at her not putting up a fight, but I had discovered that the Alpha my uncle had tasked me with killing was her mate. After I left the medic’s office, I made my way to stake out Selene’s parent’s house. She had been sloppy, letting herself relax in her family home rather than be on

LucasI considered the older wolf sitting across from me. I had been so rushed during the intake of the rogue refugees before the haze that he hadn’t caught my attention. His meeting request had gone unfulfilled for over two weeks after the mass induction. I had been overloaded with settling the new members into the pack in the aftermath of the haze, as well as recovering from the battering I had taken when Hades tried to break free from the cells. “I need to speak with Selene, urgently.” He said, an aura of power flowing through his words. “When she didn’t return my calls, I assumed she must be here, with you. You are her mate after all.”&

Rory The construction site was quiet as I pulled up beside Selene’s car. I glanced at the clock on my dashboard, wondering for a moment if I was late, but it displayed ‘7:59’. I was on time. Selene had a penchant for being early to everything.“That girl is going to be early to her own funeral.” I chuckled to myself as I slung my medical bag over my shoulder, grabbing my battery-operated lantern and the portable defibrillator. I quickly made my way to the door of the building. The scent of burning hair and sea

Selene It hurt to breathe. Every part of me was filled with a blinding pain. Raina was quiet, I wasn’t sure if I had lost her or if she was focused on healing us. I heard light movements beside me just before there was a light stinging sensation in my arm. I felt my body relax as pain medication began to ease my pain. I forced my eyes open against the drug induced heaviness of my eyelids. “Good, you’re awake!” Rory cheered. I le

“Damon, Felix, it’s time for dinner!” I called from the dining room. I smiled to myself as the boys stomped into the kitchen like a herd of elephants. Damon was the spitting image of his father. You could hardly tell the difference between pictures of them at seventeen. Felix resembled his grandfather with his mousy brown hair, but he had my striking green eyes. I couldn’t believe he was turning sixteen soon and would be finally connecting with his wolf. “Your father has to work late.” I told them, sitting the steaming lasagna pan on the table. “I expect you both to have your homework and chores done before he gets home. Am I understood?”&n

I felt slightly guilty for leaving Lucas to deal with the execution of the spy Alpha Lauren had brought to us without me. He had agreed that it was too early for me to leave Damon with a sitter though, encouraging me to meet with Rory for lunch instead. Life had been hectic in the months since our wedding. We had only spent the weekend at the cabin, not wanting take too much time away from the pack after everything that had happened with King Jonas. By the time I went into labor, I had a strong group of elite warriors, and Victoria was more than ready to take charge for my maternity leave. With Fenrick by her side, there wouldn’t be any issues. I was glad to see that she was still making time for Rory with the added responsibility as I caught sight of them seated at the café waiting for me.&n

I smoothed my gown, letting my hands settle over my protruding bump as I admired my reflection in the mirror. My mother had done an amazing job pulling everything together for the ceremonies. We had opted to have the Luna ceremony as part of our wedding, inviting the entire pack. Lucas had even set up a streaming option for the pack members that wanted to witness the event and couldn’t attend in person. “You look radiant.” Rory grinned, pinning my veil in my hair. At my mother’s recommendation, I had found a stunning empire waist gown to accommodate my growing belly. The lace overlay added the extra layer of elegance with the added bonus of hiding my white flats. Heels were out of the question. The more my belly grew, the more off balance I became. The downside w

Selene “Thanks for fitting me in, Ror.” I smiled as I took a seat on the exam table. “I could use a little of whatever it was you gave me when we first got here. All this wedding, luna ceremony, and training is wearing me down.” “So, just some generalized fatigue then?” Rory asked. “I’m honestly just exhausted. A few days to sleep would probably have me ship shape, but there’s too much to do for me to do that.” I chuckled. “Have you and Lucas been indulging in a little bedroom rodeo since the haze?” “I mean, we finished the mating process so yeah.” I replied, not sure what my friend was trying to get at.&nb

Lucas Selene glowered at me from the passenger seat. The other four had opted to take the vehicle she had driven to Cerathe in, leaving me alone with my very pissed off mate. I refused to make eye contact with her as I drove. I wasn’t really sure what I could say to ease her anger. Rory had shocked us all, killing the king while the rest of us had been forced to submit. The soldiers had backed off the moment she commanded them too, none of them certain what they were supposed to do without the king to give them orders. Daniel took charge from there, instructing the soldiers to find the King’s mate. King Jonas hadn’t had a mark, leaving us to hope his mate could survive his death. We had been wrong. While his chosen mates were alive and well, his true mate had succumbed to death moments after the King. The

RorySelene was pacing, her face twisted in anger when we arrived where she waited for us. It had taken us about twenty minutes to catch up to her after she took off in her wolf form. I could tell by the way she twisted her hands together, something worse than just not catching up to her mate had happened. “Selene,” I whispered, handing her clothing to her. “What’s wrong.” “Lucas, they have him. He was being silvered when I got here.” She wailed. “I was too late. Rory, the King, is going to kill him. There’s no way he won’t. I should know; I was the first person assigned to take him out.” She paced as she spoke, her words laced with an ache I had never seen in her.&nb

Selene “Where the fuck is he, Zane?” I demanded, barging into the Beta’s office. Lucas hadn’t answered his office or cell phones, leading me to check for him at the pack house. Instead of finding my mate, I found Zane. The guilty look on his face made it clear that he knew something about my mate’s whereabouts. “He’s in Cerathe.” “And you didn’t try to stop him? Are you insane?” I screeched. “You just let your Alpha waltz into the arms of the enemy.” “I swear, I didn’t know until it was too late.” Zane retorted,

Lucas My mind worked over what Tyson has said on the training field as I watched my mate sleeping peacefully beside me. I wanted to believe he was lying, just trying to make me lose focus to gain the upper hand, but I couldn’t shake his words. Fenrick had lost all signs of Maggie in a small town called Millstone. He believed she had purchased a car that couldn’t be tracked before leaving the place. I wanted to believe him, but she was carrying my child and I couldn’t risk her being in the King’s clutches. Kissing Selene’s sleeping face, I slipped free of her arms and the bed. I had to know for sure whether Jonas had Maggie or not. The only way to find out was to confront him myself. I would link Zane once I was across the border and well on my way. I couldn’t risk him trying to

Selene Lucas’s hands roamed my body, his erection pressing into my backside as we moved to enter the house. “Bath first.” I ordered, freeing myself from his grasp. I laughed as he pouted in response to my words. Rolling my eyes, I dragged him by the hand to the bathroom. “You smell like sweat, blood, and Tyson.” I said, scrunching my nose. “I’d prefer not to smell another man while fucking my mate. Now strip.” “Yes ma’am.” He chuckled, removing his pants and shoes as I filled the tub. He had left his tattered shirt behind on the training field, returning home in only his pants and shoes. The few places Tyson had managed to slash him had alre
