"If I asked you to do something...something difficult. Would you do it no questions asked," I ask Garrett as we shift through this week's complaints?
He looks up and shrugs before realizing I am serious. His eyes widen, and his eyebrows crease as he tries to figure out where I am heading with my bizarre question.
"Sure. Why? What's wrong," Garrett asks, and I stand up?
I haven't used the massage feature on my chair all day. I haven't answered a single request all week. I haven't been able to think past Sara or the fear I felt when she kissed me.
As I stare out the floor-to-ceiling window behind my desk, my heart and mind collide for the last time. For 72 hours, I have been battling within myself. But I think my head finally won. My heart is too bruised and too scared to stand up for love any

AMBER POV "What is it," Lucian asks as I look towards the door yet again. "I feel my power growing. I also feel the pricks of wolves praying in my head, but there are so many I can't focus," I whisper, and Lucian instantly looks worried. He walks across our small living and crouches down in front of me. "Try, little mouse. Listen to one. The strongest one you can find. Follow it back to the source. Visualize. I know you haven't mastered this part of being a Goddess yet, but something tells me this is important," Lucian urges me, and I nod. My power has heightened enough from whatever is happening that I won't have an issue with energy. It's following the prayer back to the mortal realm that always gets me. My mind always gets lost or even stuck. Lucian says it's because the wolf praying doesn't have enou

Sara POV "Dead. He wanted me killed. Out of all the options in the world, he chose death for me," I think to myself as the massive bodies crammed in my apartment whisper to each other. My fingers run through his blonde hair, and the pleasant tingles from our bond shoot up my arm. Even though he wanted me gone from this earth, I am still happy he is okay. "You okay, Sara," Jannah asks as she sees me zoning out. "Yeah, fine. When should he wake up," I ask as my fingers still, and Jannah shrugs before sitting down on the floor in front of my couch? I nod before looking toward the three males that have fallen silent. "The Goddess said it might take a little while for his organs to repair, but he will wake up soon," Garrett says after a moment, and again, I nod.&nbs

Sara POV I clear my throat and stand up. His gaze is so intense. Too intense. More intense than ever before, and it is making me a little uncomfortable. "So what happens now," I ask as I smooth out my sweat pants. I avoid looking over my shoulder at him and begin to straighten up my tiny apartment. I grab my small throw blanket I usually have over my reading chair and begin to fold. "What do you mean," he asks with a hint of a smile in his voice, and I shrug to play off my nerves. "I figure you are more versed in the dating world. I know you didn't want a mate, but anyone who looks like you has had some girlfriends," I reply lightly before taking a chance and glancing at him. He smirks and shakes his head. His eyes twinkle as they stare into my soul, and I get lost for a

OCTAVIUS POV "Mother! Let me in," I yell again as my fist slams against the invisible wall keeping me from entering my mother's domain. I need to set some things right, but true to her word, I can't enter.Beerus- Maybe send her a prayer? Something she can hear.Octavius- That seems weird.Beerus- It could work. "Fine," I mumble out loud as I close my eyes. I feel stupid doing this, but Beerus is right. I have no other way of contacting my parents. They are both dead. It isn't like they have a phone I can call. "Goddess...it's me, Octavius. Your son. I need to talk to you about some things. I am here...can you please let me in? Amen," I mumble as my cheeks blaze. Beerus- That was terrible. I don't think

SARA POV "I don't know, mom. Finals are this week, and I am busy studying for those," I reply as my mother pleads with me to meet with her for dinner. I have been avoiding my parents for months now, and I really don't want to be involved in their issues. I don't know if my mom is holding firm when it comes to my father, and I don't want to ask because that will open up the entire can of worms I am trying to avoid. "Sara, I haven't seen you in months. I want to know what's going on in your life. I pay for your apartment and your school. The least you can do is have dinner with me," Mom says, and Octavius pops back into my mind. I haven't told either of my parents that I am mated to the werewolf king. I honestly don't know how they will react. My father will probably accept it because my mate is rich, but mom is another story. She d

OCTAVIUS POV "I didn't figure you would be getting ready this early," Garrett says as I throw another tie to the floor. I glance at him as he walks further into my bedroom, growling. He smirks in response, and the urge to tell him I know about his secret venison meal hits me. But I bite my tongue. Save it, Tav. "I might be an old man, but this is still unfamiliar territory. I want to look nice," I mutter, and he chuckles before sitting down on the edge of my king-size bed. "I get that. Mates have a way of making you feel young and giddy," Garrett says, and the sincerity in his voice makes me glance at him in the mirror. He smiles, and my anxiety drops a little. This is my best friend. I can open up to him. I know everything about him. He has tried to get to know me over the years.&

SARA POV "Octavius wasn't kidding when he said you have expensive taste," I say softly as I stare down at a tag with three zeros. Jannah comes to my side and looks at the ridiculously priced item with a smirk. "I have good taste," she says while offering me a shrug.I shake my head playfully. I place the hanger back on the rack and look around at the store. "Jannah, I have no idea what I am looking for here. It's like a sea of material," I say, speaking softly again. But Jannah just laughs. "We won't be shopping on this floor, Sara. I was just showing you the lower level. We have an appointment scheduled upstairs. Octavius had me call ahead. Most of these girls live off the commission I make them so I can demand anything I want," Jannah

OCTAVIUS POV "Jannah will have her sparkling by now," Garrett chirps as he pops an orange finger-shaped chip into his mouth. Kohn nods and smiles at the mention of his daughter, and I fold my arms across my chest as I watch my best friend stuff his face with junk food. "The food bill in the place is going to triple," I mumble, and everyone chuckles as Garrett glares at me. "Any place special you plan on going to? It's the first date and all," Lucifer asks as he sits down next to Kohn? He pats Garrett on the back and steals a chip as I grin. I can't believe I am taking out Sara for the first time. I thought this day would never come. I fought against it, in fact. "Yeah. I chose Povul. The Pence brothers work there as security. You two probably know their dad," I answer, and the older males nod as Garrett seems uninterested. "Good family," Kohn says, and my Uncle nods in agreement. "They put in to work outside of pack territory years back, didn't they," Lucifer asks,

SARA PO "Octavius, I really am fine. We can't control who your mom pairs," I whisper, and Tav growls. "I can feel your anger and your pain, Sara. My mother has knowingly and purposefully forced the person who killed your mother into your life. I will not stand for that," Tav snaps, and my eyes drop away from his face as we enter the big house. I feel so much rage towards Marina about what she did, but there are other feelings too. Feelings that make me feel ashamed because she killed my mother and framed my father. But Marina is a victim too... "Can you get my father out," I whisper, and Octavius looks down at me. "Yes. I will do that first thing tomorrow," he replied instantly, and I nod. "Then that's all that needs to be done. Tell him to disappear. I don't want to see him. I just don't want him going to prison for something he didn't do," I whisper, and Octavius places me on the bed we now share. His blue eyes look me over worriedly, and I give him a small smile bef

LIAM POV Mom is practically jogging as we head towards the stream the pack used to retrieve our Luna. Her heartbeat is running wild, and I know she is in pain, but I can't bring myself to comfort her. I don't know what to say.Thomas and I didn't grow up together. He was the eldest out of us and a good fifty, some odd years older than me. We were family but not friends. I loved him, but not like mom and dad loved him. I have no idea how to feel about losing my brother. I haven't ever lost anyone before. "It's okay, Brittany. I smell him," Alpha says to calm mom down, and I sniff the air. My siblings all do the same as me, and mom sighs out in relief.Dad's familiar scent is mixed with two others, so it's hard to find in the faint breeze, but after a few moments, I pinpoint him, and so do my siblings. Kelsey shoots me a sad glance, and I nod to signal I smell it too.One of the scents mixed with dad is definitely Thomas, but his smell is all wrong. His typical cedar smell is mix

OCTAVIUS POV My irritation at being disturbed disappears as my eyes lock with Brittany's pain-filled face. Behind her stands her and Garrett's remaining pups, making me feel even worse. "Please! I can't lose him too. I feel him in my heart, Alpha. He is tearing himself apart. He needs us, please," Brittany begs, and my head actually falls in shame. I should have drug him home, but I wanted to give him space to grieve. I never even considered how painful that would be for Garrett's family. I mainly care only about him. But he is tied to his mate as I am tied to mine now. "I don't know if the siren is still close by. We can try, but I think I will have to involve my mother in this to get him back," I say as my eyes drift back up to hers. She nods and immediately begins to head towards the exit. I glance back at Sara to find she has thrown on a comfy outfit. She smiles at me as she heads my way and grabs my hand. "Let's go get him," She whispers, and I smile. My mate feels

MARINA POV Garrett growls viciously as I finally step out of the bushes I have been hiding in, and I freeze. One wrong move, and I know the grieving wolf will rip me in half, but for some reason, I don't want to leave him. His pain is calling to me. "I have smelled you since you showed back up, fish. Why can't you let me mourn in peace," Garrett snarls without looking away from his child's burnt corpse. I sigh and sink down to my knees. I lick my lips nervously as I try to shift through the jumbled thoughts in my brain. Flashes from my own pain fill my mind and I close my eyes. "Grieving alone or with company doesn't matter. It still hurts," I whisper back after a few seconds as I reopen my eyes. The heartbroken wolf actually looks at me. His bloodshot eyes and tear-stained cheeks hit my heart hard. I try to keep the sympathy and pity out of my eyes, but I know he can see it. "I don't know how to grieve. Lucian is the last person I grieved for. I was only a pup then

SARA POV RATED R MATURE Octavius's eyes darken as we smile at each other, and his head moves towards mine as mine moves towards his. Our lips connect like magnets, and we both begin to devour each other. My fear explodes into passion, and I lose myself in the sensual feel of his lips on mine. Our bond rages and Octavius's hands begin to explore my body. I moan into his mouth as his thumb presses my nipple, and he growls deep. "I need you, Sara. Please be mine for all eternity. Let me mark you and seal your life to mine. I want you with me always," Octavius mumbles against my lips, and my heart rate triples with excitement. "Yes! Yes, make me yours, Tav," I say as I draw back and stare into his pale eyes. He growls loudly and flips us around on the bed. My hair flairs out around me as my back lands on the mattress, and I stare up at the dirty God that I love with all my heart. "I fucking love you! I am so happy I never met my first mate, Sara. You are my everything! I wo

SARA POV "Are you okay," Marina whispers as we travel through the water in a bubble she manipulated with a song. I glance at her before looking back at the beautiful magic all around me. I don't know what to feel towards the creature that has caused me so much heartache. Even talking to her makes me feel uncomfortable now, knowing what I know. "Just terrific," I mumble, and Marina sighs a little before beginning to sing a new song. We travel for a few more moments, and the bubble starts to rise. When the bubble is completely out of the water, it gradually slows to a stop and pops. I grin at the waiting wolves when I spot Jannah's relieved face. "I understand how you must feel, but please believe me when I say that I never meant you any ill will. I was doing everything in my power to save a sister I thought to be alive. Your mother's life was a price I chose to pay for both you and my sister. I wish I could bring her back for you, and I am so sorry I believed Dagahra. I

OCTAVIUS POV Now that Sara is safe, I need to get to Garrett. He is being careless with his attacks, and several warriors have already alerted me to his vulnerability. If I don't get to his side soon, we will also lose him, which is something I can not handle. Sara, Jannah, and Garrett are essential to my life.Tav- Garrett, where are you? Nothing comes through my link, so I switch to plan B. I take deep sniffs of the air. I shift through the layers of smoke and blood until I pinpoint my cousin's scent. Beerus growls as we both lock onto the scents around him as well. My cousin is surrounded! I howl as I shift into my four-legged form. Adrenaline pumps through my blood, and I practically fly through the trees and brush to reach him in time. Warriors flank me as I run, but they aren't fast enough to keep up. Within moments I find my beta singed and fighting a yellowish-orange beast with long talons. Instead of helping him with his opponent, I attack the small blue dragon waiting

SARA POV Dagahra grins evilly, and pure panic sets in. This is it. I am going to get burnt to a crisp just like Marina's family. At least my death will be fast. But I don't want to die. There is so much I want to do in my life that I won't be able to. I will never be able to mate with Octavius. I will never get to have sex with the man I love. I never even got to tell my father I know it wasn't him. I never got to graduate or have children. My life was so short. "There's no need for her now," Dagahra says, and his mouth begins to open. I squeeze my eyes close and brace for the inevitable pain, but it doesn't come. Instead, I hear a growl and then a high-pitched scream. My eyes fly open, and I see Octavius punch the green dragon that showed up only a couple of minutes ago. She falls to the ground dead, and I shift my eyes to my would-be murderer. I watch as Dagahra stares at my mate with a mixed expression of fear and shock. I want to laugh and point at him, but I am still to
The New Age King // Book 2 Fifty six
OCTAVIUS POV Pain is shooting up my back, relentlessly as I take off with my pack on my heels. I never imagined what it would truly be like to feel her pain and not be able to do anything about it. It is terrifying. Beerus and I are going crazy. I am so angry at Marina. I want to shred her, but the blinding fear in my gut is too much to see past. Anything that gets me to Sara faster can live. At least for a little while longer. Garrett- Do you think she is being truthful? This could be a trap. You have the majority of the pack's warriors running into this, and we are blind. We don't know their numbers or their strategy. Octavius- It doesn't matter. I will kill them all. You can turn around for all I care. My mate is being hurt! Garrett-...Are you feeling something? Octavius- Yes. All over my back. Garrett- Fuck. Octavius- It's the only reason the siren is still breathing. Garrett- Got it. Beerus growls as Garrett's voice fades. He doesn't like our beta acting as if runni
