“You’re mine, little puppy,” Kylan growled against my neck. “Soon enough, you’ll be begging for me. And when you do—I’ll use you as I see fit, and then I’ll reject you.” — When Violet Hastings begins her freshman year at Starlight Shifters Academy, she only wants two things—honor her mother’s legacy by becoming a skilled healer for her pack and get through the academy without anyone calling her a freak for her strange eye condition. Things take a dramatic turn when she discovers that Kylan, the arrogant heir to the Lycan throne who has made her life miserable from the moment they met, is her mate. Kylan, known for his cold personality and cruel ways, is far from thrilled. He refuses to accept Violet as his mate, yet he doesn’t want to reject her either. Instead, he sees her as his puppy, and is determined to make her life even more of a living hell. As if dealing with Kylan’s torment isn’t enough, Violet begins to uncover secrets about her past that change everything she thought she knew. Where does she truly come from? What is the secret behind her eyes? And has her whole life been a lie?
View MoreVioletEach time I heard footsteps, my eyes were automatically fixed on the door, hoping it was him.I had been waiting to see Kylan all day. At first, it was out of excitement, but after Trinity’s words at lunch, I wanted to see how he would react. The idea of him with Chrystal, right after I left his room, made me fear that he regretted everything that happened between us—and I was hoping to be wrong.After keeping me in anticipation, the door cracked open again, and this time it was actually him—Kylan. Nate and Dylan were right beside him. My heart stopped for a moment as Kylan’s eyes found mine, like he’d known I’d be waiting.I wanted to get up, walk straight over to him—but I held myself back. Instead, I gave him a small smile, hoping to test the waters. Was he going to pull away again? Would he just brush me off? To my surprise, Kylan smiled back. A warm, genuine smile.He really had some nerve, smiling at me like that after everything I had heard. It bothered me, yet somehow,
~ That Morning ~KylanAs I got ready for class, I noticed a hair tie on the edge of my bed. I picked it up, chuckling. Puppy had left in such a hurry an hour ago—and it was probably for the best because the last thing I wanted was for someone to see her leaving.If word got around, the next thing you knew, people would assume she was my mate, and once that happened—I’d never hear the end of it. I wasn’t just looking out for myself, but for her as well.My thoughts drifted back to last night, every moment replaying in my mind. I couldn’t shake off how good she felt, the way she had clung to me, the way she tasted, and the soft moans that had escaped her lips as she collapsed in my arms.Yesterday was not like it was with anyone else before—and even though I enjoyed it, it terrified me.My smile faded as I remembered that one horrific thing I had almost done. I had called her beautiful, let myself say things I had never meant to say out loud—and when I felt her neck under my mouth, the
VioletNervously, I bit my lips as Esther stared at me with narrowed eyes. I felt my pulse quicken. Even though I was technically on time, I knew she wasn’t stupid. Getting caught out past curfew was no small thing, and an automatic strike—a permanent one.Doing this while being part of the team that was supposedly the pride of the school was not done, and leaving the male dorm was just simply humiliating. Barely anyone got caught, but of course—it had to be me.Although I tried to keep my face neutral, guilt was written all over it.“Seeing as curfew has barely ended, I’m just going to assume that you’re not coming back from a walk,” Esther said, her gaze sharp and intense.Slowly, her eyes traveled to my neck, and I immediately hid it with my hand. I hadn’t looked in a mirror yet, but after everything Kylan and I had done last night, I had a great feeling of what it would look like.Esther’s sharp eyes softened as she let out a small, disappointed sigh. “I can give you a strike,” sh
VioletI woke up with two strong arms wrapped around me and knew exactly whose arms I was in. Last night was a memory I couldn’t and wouldn’t erase from my mind.My lips curled into a soft smile, and then my cheeks began to heat up as memories from last night returned. The way he touched me, cared for me—and was gentle enough to make me feel comfortable.‘You’re okay, I got you—relax.’ ‘Look at me.’ ‘You’re beautiful.’ All of those were words I had never expected to leave Kylan’s mouth, but somehow he did—and then he kissed my head and held me in his arms for the entire night. It was probably nothing, just some aftercare—but it felt nice.Even after almost marking me, he didn’t pull back, hadn’t kicked me out of his room, or brought it up. It was a good thing he didn’t, because I just wanted it to be normal, but then again—maybe if he did, I wouldn’t have had this crush on him.Yes, crush. After losing my virginity, I did the one thing he told me not to do—catch feelings.
VioletI suddenly grew self-conscious as Kylan’s eyes traveled down to my boobs and remained there for a while. For a long time, I’d felt embarrassed, thinking they were too ugly, too big—tried to hide them away until Trinity told me nobody would care.Now, I was unsure, because there was no response. Maybe, he did care.Was he going to say something? Do something?Suddenly, he smirked, shaking his head. “Who knew you had it in you, Puppy.”Before I could respond, I was pushed back down, and his teeth gently nipped at my hardened nipple. The sting I felt was quickly replaced by a wave of pleasure that made my back arch off the bed.“Kylan…” I gasped, threading my fingers through his thick hair. He responded by taking my nipple fully into his mouth, sucking and licking while his hands knead my breasts. “You’re perfect.”I bucked my hips, desperate for more friction. Kylan moved away from my nipples and began tracing a path down my stomach with his tongue, until he had reached the waist
Violet“What do you want?”Kylan’s simple question repeated in my head.He had me pinned against the wall, his breath against my skin—yet he still needed me to say it. He was either trying to embarrass me, or maybe he truly had no clue and wanted to hear me admit it out loud.His hands pressed into my sides, and his bare chest rose as he took in a breath. His brown eyes flickered over my face, as if he had all the time in the world, waiting for my answer.I reached for his shoulders, pulling him back slightly so he could take a good look at me, and see I meant every word. “I want the same thing you do.”His gaze held mine, and he looked kind of disappointed. Was that not the answer he wanted to hear? That I wanted him?My heart quickened as I waited for him to speak up.“I can’t accept you as my mate, Violet,” his jaw tightened. Each time he used my birth name, I knew he was serious. “I can’t love you—I can’t be with you—““Yet you refuse to accept my rejection?”His words stung, but
VioletI froze, my heart pounding so loudly I could barely think straight. Part of me knew exactly what I would regret, because it was the same thing he would regret—and there was no way I could cross that line.Wouldn’t giving in mean letting him win after he had humiliated me on multiple occasions?‘Do it,’ I heard something whisper from deep within, and I knew it was Lumia, encouraging me to do the wrong thing.‘Do it.’Should I?I leaned a bit closer, but didn’t get far as Kylan stepped back. He eyed me as if I was the crazy one, as if he didn’t just dare me to kiss him.Just like that, I once again fell for his game.“Your cheeks are glowing,” he noted.I gasped, reaching up to cover my face, but it was of no use. He had already seen it anyway.How was he so unaffected by all of this? Did our bond mean nothing to him?“Well,” he said. “Since you’re all fired up, let’s see if you can channel that energy into your run.”I stared at him, wide-eyed. Was he serious? After all that, he
VioletKylan’s ‘training’ in the woods was turning out to be more like a torture. Every exercise felt like a punishment, and I now was doubting whether he was really invested in teaching me, or just trying to make my life more miserable.He had me doing lunges, core exercises, running up and down hills, and, after turning my legs into jelly, I was now forced to hang from a tree branch.He yelled louder than Commander Jorn if I even dared to slack off. What bothered me even more was that he looked so handsome while doing it. So handsome, it actually turned me on.What the hell was wrong with me?I breathed, glancing at the branch above. It was a surprise I was still holding on, and somehow this seemed to be the only thing I was good at today.My arms weren’t trembling, and my body was calm and stable. The burn in my muscles was still intense—but I had too much on my mind to focus on it.My mind kept going back to Jane, and the reason why she had changed so suddenly. That look in her ey
VioletNate shrugged, “We watched a movie and went to bed. I gave her my hoodie because I didn’t want her to freeze to death, but somehow this rumor—”“Good for you two,” Kylan cut him off, his voice cold.I felt a pain in my heart, accepting he had no desire to hear more. He was so confusing. If he really didn’t care, then why were we not allowed to talk about it? And why did I even care?Before I could dwell on it too much, Rochwall entered the room. “My children!” his voice was full of energy. “I missed you!”Several cheered, thrilled to see him back. I could promise that if Commander Jorn had walked through that door, no one would’ve been smiling.Rochwall wasn’t alone. He had brought his wife, Jane, along with him. I watched as she took a seat at the back and greeted her with a smile—but she turned her head away, pretending not to notice.My smile vanished as I tried to think of a reason. Had I done something to upset her?No, of course not. I barely knew the woman.It was proba
