A reminder updates will be slow while I celebrate my B-day weekend with family and sulk like a bitch because of ear ache crippling me. (I have not had ear ache since I was a kid so I am a right GRUMPY MOO! Sorry in advance!
Kane POV I was still pulling the shirt over my head when I pushed open the door to Charlotte's room, knowing instantly the scent hit my nose that Knox had been in here. "The room stinks of him," Rolo grunted, and I couldn't help but smile at his jealousy. "It will smell of her in a minute!" I r
Knox POV "Are you sure you want to do this?" The stranger beside me asked, but I kept silent, looking down at the blood-red stain on the floor. I could sense him growing irritable. "Do you think having your brother and mate come to you is wise? You're not in the right frame of mind, sport!" He adde
With a deadly snarl, he pounced on Bash, who was unable to shift and brutally bit down on his abdomen; I could feel the flesh tearing under my wolf's jaw as if it was happening now, and I knew the attack would be fatal. As much as I wanted to be sad, and as much as I regretted what my foolish wolf h
Lottie POV "Knox, I am coming! Stay there, ok, Stud?" I asked my mate through the mate bond I shared with them both. "I won't be leaving this room until we have spoken." Knox cut through the bond, his tone lighter than it had been seconds ago, like he had come to his senses after hearing Kane and
Lottie POV "When I left my father and Mike with..." I started to explain, but I paused, feeling him stiffen at the mention of the men I once loved, and sighed, knowing this wasn't the point; I was just so nervous. "Well, when I left the room to come find you, I don't know what happened, but I was
Knox POV "What is taking them so long!" I barked, growing irritated. Running my free hand down my face, I sighed, knowing I would lose my nerve if they took much longer. "I don't know, but I would guess they are trying to think of something to say to you." The stranger offered from the corner of
Lottie POV I found myself utterly dumbfounded, unable to speak or move. I felt like my brain was still playing catch-up with my eyes and ears. This just couldn't be happening; how had Knox, the cheeky chappy who loved life and everything in it, even be contemplating this? Especially when he had don
Kane POV It felt like years since I had the pair of them this close to me, when, in fact, it was hours! I could sense the tension in Charlotte's body as I squished her between my brother and me. I knew there was more she needed to tell us, but I understood why she was holding back. We may have conv
"I didn't get anything," I confirmed, shooting a quick look at Liam, to see him checking his phone for the millionth time this hour."He mindlinked the entire pack last night—" She shifted her weight, and her confusion quickly turned to alarm. "Everyone was told we were under attack. Apparently, he'
Kane POV"What do you mean?" I stiffened, a flicker of confusion sparking in my mind."When I finally came to bed last night—" Her tone was biting, letting us know she'd been up longer than usual. "—I found the place trashed. Sheets torn off, furniture toppled, the room absolutely wrecked. But your
Kane POVThe thick, fertile scent of damp grass filled my nose. Our family's sprawling garden, with its cobblestone paths and neatly trimmed shrubs, might've looked serene to an outsider, but I could feel the tension radiating from my brothers. Adam and Liam slumped at the wrought-iron table near th
"I'm listening." He spread his hands in a silent invitation, leaning on the statue. A wave of nausea rolled through me. My jaw set tight, and I pushed the words out before I lost my nerve. "Connie," I began, "and Lily. Years ago, they attended a camp." I paused, the memory stabbing at me. "My daugh
Adam POVI stood in the garden with my back against an old oak, trying my best to calm the pounding in my chest. Dawn had turned the sky into a wash of soft oranges, but none of us felt any serenity from it. The overnight drama and then the issue with Connie had left an acrid taste in my mouth, and
Connie POV “I—my childhood wasn’t… look, it doesn’t matter. I just learned real fast that if I didn’t claw my way to the top, I’d be stomped on. So I do what I need to. I guess Adam sees it as manipulation, but it’s survival for me.” I wiped my cheeks, letting my voice quiver. He studied my face, l
Connie POV My heart hammered as Chase guided me out of the kitchen, his hand firm around my waist. I could practically feel the tension still clinging to my skin, left behind by Adam's furious glare. That confrontation had jolted me badly, far more than I cared to admit. Yet the shock of seeing Cha
"You will show her respect, Kane… remember who the fuck I am! I am no alpha, No friend; I am a sparrow brother, and as such, you will mind your fucking tongue, or I will remove it... with my teeth," I warned a smug-looking Kane. I knew he got it. After all, Kane had hammered our plan into place. He
Chase POV "She nearly cost Lottie everything. She's messed with filth, spilled secrets, toyed with hearts she had no business touching." Adam cut through the easing tension. My chest rattled with anger. I'd lose my composure if I'd thought of Connie's acts too deeply. So I channeled that fury into
