EMBER It felt good to have some of the power in our relationship. I knew he was still in charge. I knew he owned me and was my Alpha. But what kind of a fake mate would I be if I didn't bring him to his knees every once in a while? If he wanted to keep toying with me, then I was determined to hav
But something was still missing. There were no wolves around to hate me for being part Fae. No jealous potential girlfriends, and no angry Alpha who couldn't decide if he wanted me or wanted to kill me. It had taken me a while to understand what I felt while I was with Kade and why something felt
TRISTAN She was rubbing all over him like a fucking whore. She was dressed like one, too, with her tits out, letting him lift the bottom of her dress to rub her thigh. I should have expected it. I had known what Ember was like from what happened the night of my birthday. She had practically jumpe
The thought of her crawling back to me was exciting. She would be punished for acting out this way, for touching another man when she hadn't freed me from her claws yet. I would chain her up in the dungeons and leave her there for one week for every time she touched him. My beast disagreed. The s
DEX Ember had been gone too long. The rest of the room had been seated, and one of the Lunas who had volunteered to host tonight's function stood at the microphone, welcoming us all and discussing how much she was looking forward to another peaceful and prosperous year for our kind. She had no id
"What were you doing in the bathroom with him, Ember?" I asked, unbuttoning my right sleeve before moving to the left, preparing to take my shirt off to start getting ready for bed. Her head snapped back, and she looked appalled by my question, even though she should have expected it. "Excuse me?"
EMBER My skin was red and stung by the time I got done scrubbing it under the scalding water. Even I could smell Tristan on me. His cologne was so strong that I was surprised he had been able to wear it at all with his wolf senses. Whenever I thought I had gotten it all off, I would picture the lo
"Regardless of how you brought me here, I told you I would do what I could to help your people, and I meant it," I said. Unable to face him any longer, I rolled onto my back. There was a long moment of silence between us where I tapped my right pointer finger on the back of my left hand before the
EPILOGUE “You’re late,” Cole grumbled as I raced through the trees, unable to wipe the smile from my face. I had anticipated the worst when I first turned to the Fae to train me on my magic, but the tension melted away after a couple of sessions. The more I got to know my great aunt… well, the
His heart was too fast for my liking, and I knew this upset him more than he would admit. “I’ll come home to you. I promise. It’s only for a few days to start my training.” I pressed a long kiss to his chest before wrapping my arms around his waist. “When have I ever not chosen you?” From the be
“Today, one of our pack members, the ringleader of this group, was killed during an attempt at taking my life. Before she died, I was able to extract a list of names from her. I have the names of everyone she has been working with, and I want to assure all of you now that I will do everything necess
EMBER I was in shock, stunned by what I had done and how easily the darkness had taken over. Once the guards had rushed in and moved between me and Jensen, I fell to my knees. Dex had run for me, not caring about anything else in his hurry to ensure my safety. His touch brought me back, his arms
EMBER I gasped as Dex crashed into me, the impact sending me to the floor. His warm body was on top of mine, shielding me from her attack, and I cried out as the heavy metal of a chain hit the top of my head before Dex was pulled away. My hand instinctively flew to my hairline, covering the stin
“And you thought the best solution would be to make everyone think Dex had done it?” Ember asked, disbelief thick in her tone. “He was starting to wake up, and it was my only choice. I grabbed a handful of the dirt beneath him that he had been bleeding on and sprinkled it around her.” Jensen’s voi
“Dex! You have to believe me! Jensen is lying! He is behind all of this!” Caroline walked forward until the chain stopped her, rubbing her throat as she flashed her wide, puppy-dog eyes. “She’s been blackmailing me,” Jensen explained. Caroline pulled her leg back before kicking forward again. Wh
DEX “Clear the room.” I snapped, and the guards made their way to the door. I knew they would find themselves on the other side of the double-sided glass wall where Nolan, Alec, and Thea were sure to be watching. It wouldn’t surprise me if other pack members heard about their Beta being interroga
“How could you do this to Paige?” Caroline screamed, “She is rolling in her grave knowing that you betrayed her with a Fae!” “That is enough, Caroline.” Dex snapped, but the woman didn’t hear him. She knew she was getting to him, and I didn’t know how to calm him without stepping out of line. He di
