AURORA

I was rather looking down than up…

I sighed in relief. An old lady covered in orange from head to toe had stepped into the room, raising an eyebrow at me. She was neat but equally untidy when it came to her hair. Her grey eyebrows were bushy and so was her short hair.

I was not ready to face my mate after just discovering that he was Adrian Storm. The Adrian Storm. I don’t think I can ever recover from that.

“Were you expecting someone, ma’am?”

The she-wolf wasn’t lucky with height—she was almost a dwarf—and she wore a matching orange cloche hat with a carrot-colored ribbon tied around it. Her chocolate brown eyes appeared to be smiling and her greying hair was as short as her.

She wouldn’t look very fat if she had some more height and there was a weird-looking bracelet in her hands. I had seen it before but couldn’t recollect where or what it was.

“I’m just eighteen. I’m not a ma’am.”

“Sassy, aren’t you?”

She opened the door wider as if gesturing for me to come out and follow

    ADRIANI despise sunglasses, can hardly stand them. The only thing I despise more than sunglasses is how wolves stare at my eyes… like they’ve never seen anything like it. Angering thing is that some staff do that shit. I’ve gotten tired of firing them.My wolf snickered. ‘That’s simply because they haven’t. Ever seen another wolf with orange eyes?’ Fox said in his slick I-could-care-less voice.He was the last thing I wanted to talk to.‘How many times have I told you never to snicker and disturb my thoughts?’‘If I never disturbed your thoughts then I’d never get to talk. Your brain’s in constant mayhem.’ I kept quiet, hoping he’d shut it. ‘And…’ Fuck. ‘You seem to be forgetting that you aren’t my Alpha. I’m practically inside you so your threats mean nothing to me. And…’ He cut in, knowing I wanted to say something. ‘…you can block me off for all I care. Talking to you is one of the most degrading things I have to put up with daily.’ G

    AURORA“He’s a liar! He’s a fucking liar!”I was pacing around my room-made-prison, punching my fist into my innocent palm. “How dare he say that about them. Mom would never do that to me. The same thing happened to her and she would want better for me. Wouldn’t she?”I stopped and crashed on the bed, landing hard on its soft coziness. “But what if she hates me? What if she wants me to suffer as she did? No, I think they sold me.”I leaped back on my feet, pacing again. “That doesn’t sound right. We’re the richest pack in the territories. Mom wouldn’t sell me off for a few thousand. They’ll come for me. They surely will.”I dropped back on the edge of the bed, wallowing in my thoughts. “What if they don’t?” I looked down at my naked feet—needed a pedicure as well. “But what if they wanted to get rid of me and all he said was true?” Evolet who had been quietly listening to my constant whining finally put her anger aside and chime

    AURORA“What did you say?”He left the comfort of the wall and walked over to me with slow defined steps. I gulped, hoping he wouldn’t do what he did to that iron table… to me. I was sure that table couldn’t be the same.‘For the record, you won’t be the same if he lashes out at us!’I was not going to take my word back but maybe I was breaking into his privacy… Fuck privacy! He kidnapped me and kept me in here like some sex slave. Yeah, speaking of that, mom and dad have raised treaties with numerous packs to ban owning sex slaves among Alphas and his aides.They’ve succeeded in many because packs want to be allied with Moonstone so they happily or diffidently accept these conditions to form the partnership. Silverclaw wasn’t one of them. It made me angry for a reason and it wasn’t just because of what he could be doing to them, but how many of them he would’ve fucked.“I don’t think it’ll be wise for me to repeat it.” I looked down at his released claws and shivered slightly when I r

    KATRINAI hadn’t moved from this position since I had gotten back from the search mission. As much as I wanted to be out there, scaling through the forest, barking orders at Sigmas, and doing everything I could to find my daughter, the truth was… that I had already done that.All day. Me, Kane, the Beta, and the Gamma led search troops and we searched everywhere. I searched everywhere. Yet, we found nothing and I forced myself to return because it was getting dark and rogues would take the chance to attack us.We were lucky to not encounter some in broad daylight but everyone knows that rogues like it best when the moon is out.‘How long have I been sitting here, Mel?’She sighed heavily. ‘It’s one am in the morning, Kat. We need some sleep.’‘Sleep?! I don’t know if my daughter’s sleeping now. She may be shivering under a rock somewhere in the middle of a rainstorm. She might be stuck in a ditch, crying out for help and I wouldn

    KATRINAElder Sesan has been trying to wear ‘normal’ clothes for the past few years but he was never successful in pulling it off. His baggy trousers and long-sleeved brown shirt were just… a terrible combination. He had tied his beard and though he looked older, it was not as obvious as if you knew Penelope almost ten years ago.Penelope was a woman now. A full-grown woman. She had long wavy coal black hair and her extraordinary confidence had never wavered. From what I last remembered, she had a harder voice and always held her head upright.She wore a small black dress and tied a matching ribbon around her neck. They walked forward and Kane stood beside me, folding his hands and flexing those muscles.“I hope you’re the only ones here. You know I don’t approve of the others,” I said, expecting to see the rest jump out.Dan died a year ago, but Fraser and that prick, Madeline, were still alive—unfortunately. “Of cour

I made some small notes in most chapters and I’m sure you’ll find it useful.”Wait… it’s a book and… was she kidding me? “How many pages is this thing?” I asked, dusting and seeing nothing but the plain shabby leather brown cover of the thickest thing ever.‘Well, you haven’t seen a lot of books.’‘I don’t plan to.’‘That explains why Hilda is smarter than you.’‘I’ve blocked you off too many times this morning, Ev. Don’t make me do it again.’The cover had been recently changed—obviously. I wondered how many times it had to get new… clothes.“A thousand and three. You’ll be reading that after each of our lessons.” I looked at her with raised brows. Once again… she had to be kidding me. She turned away from the cup of coffee she

You’re in my head, remember, and it’s been like an hour.’ ‘I sing it all the time. You’re just noticing because you’re bored and have nothing else to do.’I hissed. ‘Whatever.’The sun was preparing to set and the moon was warming up for duty as it was late evening now. I’ve been inside all day, it’s driving my insides as insane as Evolet’s singing voice made my ears squirm.‘Hey!’I mean, if it were Hilda in here, she’d find a book or two and wouldn’t mind as long as she was allowed to read. She doesn’t leave her room on most days in the packhouse—obviously when she isn’t in school. Dash would be able to cope if he had a computer with Internet access or a play

    AURORA The Beta aggressively grabbed my hand and pulled me back with force. On impulse, I tried to twist myself free but his mind was somewhere else and my attempts weren’t making a difference to him. He faced the Alpha with what he ‘hoped’ was a remorseful face.“I apologize, Alpha, she…” Any excuse that included how I ‘begged’ him to let me out for a walk would sound stupid so I understood why his tongue was tied. The younger wolf was smiling and he somewhat reminded me of Dash with his charm and dimples. No one said anything as they were all waiting for the Alpha’s commands. I glared at Adrian and he stared at me. The anger that had once surrounded his prevailing aura was gone and it turned to arousal.Shit, I hadn’t used wolfguise. When the Alpha abruptly stood up, those seated with him—I proposed the older one was the Zeta and the younger one would obviously be the Gamma—did the same—and I’d always known Gammas to be tough and hug

  • The Dark Alpha's Unwanted Luna   AN EAVESDROPPING LUNA

    KATRINAI leaned on the door, checking my surroundings for anyone around because a Luna eavesdropping on her own Alpha was not the kind of news I wanted to be spreading in the packhouse for the jobless busybodies to be gossiping about.Checking to see if his door was unlocked, I opened it by a soundless crack and set my eyes on him, the most handsome man I’ve ever met, sitting with his back faced to me on a chair similar to one from his office, and a table laid in front of him like a gift from the gods. The reading room was not very different from his office, he didn’t have a lot of style—I could confirm that—but there were custom-made shelves of books stacked over each other in this god of a room. The Alpha uses every free time he gets to read, and the only thing that’s hotter than watching Kane reading was staring at him lovingly, when he was over me, with that dark, insane, animalistic look in his eyes as he was about to… When was the last time we even made love?

  • The Dark Alpha's Unwanted Luna   A NIGHTMARE ON A STORM

    AURORA“Mom went too hard on the code. She was meant to make it impossible for everyone but me! Dang it!”I admired the space we all dropped in when we first came down and thought it had to be the best part of the mansion because it looked like somewhere you would travel to in a good dream. It was a large roomy area that looked like an apartment, the lights were so bright that you would’ve had a problem differentiating day from night, and in this case, it was already pitch dark outside. The cream-tiled floor caught my eye first with interesting and innovative designs that made me think of walking on the ground and the large equally tiled walls of matching grace drive you to reminisce of the sun. If it was a bit cooler in here, I would rethink returning to the surface—it’s not like anything better is happening up there—but I still didn’t understand how this was a mansion. It’s just a… looks like I was wrong because the best and better parts were yet to come.There were MORE floors and

    AURORAAdrian wouldn’t stop reading the letter. He’s been devouring it. I needed to know what was in it. I had to because, without me, we may have never even found the golden statue. We didn’t know where we would end up so letters were secured in the mouths of all the Silverclaw emergency mailboxes. They have that on every mountain both in and out of their territory, they are protected under The Dark Alpha's law. I thought it was a smart move, for unfortunate emergencies like this. I wished we were able to leave messages for them too, tell them we were safe but I think the empty mail post is enough proof of that. But making the eagle statues gold wasn't the smartest choice since it attracted the kind of people that they didn't want near it. Is he trying to show off?Adrian loses points for that. If it wasn't him who designed it then, I was sure it would be Dylan. That crook. Gosh, I can't believe I miss him. I missed all of them. I missed the packhouse too and I missed my motherly

She backed away from me as soon as I let her go, glaring like she’d kill me, before walking out of my sight and heading to whatever thing she’d seen that made her declare we weren’t alone.Those were dangerous words to say on this mountain and whatever she’d seen could not be good.‘She’s going too far away, boss.’Fucking Fox, at least he was saying something meaningful for once. “Aurora,” I warned, turning around to grab her by hand, glad that she had not gone too far away because I wanted her glued to me every second of the day, and held her still…. I couldn’t lose her again. I’ve already taken too many chances.“Let me go, Adrian.”This beautiful, sexy nightmare would be the end of me. “Don’t expect to sur

Have you seen how bad things are? I’m a hundred percent sure we’re in the worst place possible on this unbearable hump of snow.’We packed the tent as soon as the night died out and set off for the letter we were meant to find. I had wanted us to go as soon as he brought it up but he said I was tired and needed rest. Like he knew what I wanted! How many times do I have to remind him that he doesn’t own my body and can’t tell me what to do?‘Forever, because it doesn’t look like he’ll ever listen.’I hissed, clutching my frozen fingers. ‘Not another word from you, Ev.’ I couldn’t sound any angrier than that.He made sure I ate but didn’t bother eating himself—what a hypocrite—and when I told him to at least grab one o

The first time I was in one, we almost exploded along with it—you know how the story goes after—and the second time, well… we’re about to fucking crash!I covered my head with my arms and awaited the impact, a scream ready to be torn out of my throat, bones prepared to break, heads set to crack, metal waiting to dismantle, fire about to lit up…Just waiting for all that havoc to wreak on us but… the collision never came. My body jerked out of my nightmare as my eyes popped open, and my breathing escalated when I tried to look around me. There wasn’t much I could see except for the blinding blue sky so I tried to turn my neck but the pain made me feel like the nightmare wasn’t so bad after all.With difficulty, I pulled my heavy right hand up and trie
