Kyle

I thought she was different. I should have known better! They say the apple doesn’t fall far from the tree but I didn’t want to believe it.

The minute I laid eyes on Olivia cross, everything else fell away. It felt like the last twenty years of my life were meaningless compared to that one moment. Somehow I knew she would change me, irrevocably.

I fought it at first. Two decades is a long time to plot and plan, to want something so fiercely that it consumes your dreams. I clung to that feeling like a lifeline until one day it ceased to matter anymore. There was only her.

“Kyle, what do you mean it’s happening again?” Shit! I didn't mean to say that out loud.

“Nothing. Why is your scent all over them and theirs on you?” I deflect, deftly changing the subject.

“Kyle, please, can we sit and talk? You've been gone a while and I have so much to tell you.” She sighs, a chagrined look on her face.

“Maybe if you answered your phone, you could have told me sooner.” I snap, unvei

And now he's interested in her daughter? I know he originally got close to Olivia to help Xavier, but now he's actually into her. I'm grossed out. Yuck.

    OliviaIt’s almost time. Kaden and Declan will announce our pups as their heirs mere minutes from now. I’ve known this day was coming for weeks, but now that it’s here, I don’t know how to feel about it. No, that’s a lie. I know exactly how to feel about it. Terrified. Nerves roll around inside me like tiny ball bearings, scattering in every direction until no part of me is unaffected. Declan stands behind me, my ever watchful guardian, while I put the finishing touches on my make-up. Sensing my unease, his purr revs to life and his wolf pumps calming pheromones into the room. “You have nothing to worry about, rosebud. Everyone is going to love you.” Declan assures me, misinterpreting my concern. His hands skate up and down my arms, goose flesh erupting in their wake. And his purr is like an idling engine, vibrating against my back until my body feels all melty and relaxed. But my mind is still a snarling swarm of anxiety and fear, edging closer to panic with every passing second.

    Kaden “Quiet!” My Alpha command blankets the crowd and they immediately fall silent. Declan has already left to follow Olivia, but our parents surround me. Disbelief, disappointment, anger pours from them in torrents. But I can’t concern myself with any of that right now. Somehow, I have to control the damage Ana has done with the pack so I can get to my mate. She’s all that matters. “My deepest apologies for the confusion. I’m not sure what Ms. Ariti’s goal was here today, but her statement was misleading. She is not carrying my pup. But I can assure you we will deal with the situation swiftly.” I snarl in her direction. “Please return to your homes. We’ll notify you when this issue is resolved and reconvene under less volatile circumstances.” The crowd begins to disperse when Ana’s father storms onto the stage. “Are you really going to publicly disgrace my daughter? Is that the kind of Alpha you are, a man who makes promises to young, impressionable she-wolves, defiles them, the

    Declan “Where is she?” Kaden growls and the room falls silent. At first, I don't understand what he’s asking me. But one quick look around makes it perfectly clear. Olivia had been standing right beside me. She must have left but I was too consumed by the rage burning in my veins to notice her slip out. “I-, I didn’t see her leave.” My voice cracks, rage replaced with fear. She knows it’s not safe for her to go off alone right now, not even in our home. It’s bad enough she ran off after Ana’s little stunt earlier but I had my eyes on her the whole time. Panic roils in my gut when I realize I’m not even sure how long she’s been gone. “Where do you think you’re going, Beta? We’re not done here!” Alpha Xavier barks and I round on him. “I think we made it perfectly clear we’re done with you! Do us all a favor and take your grasping, slut of a daughter with you!” I snarl on my way out, slamming the door behind me. “Kaden! Where are you going?” I hear Ana whine when he opens the do

    Olivia I burst through the front door of the packhouse without slowing down, gulping down lungfuls of fresh air. I was starting to feel claustrophobic in that office, the walls closing in around me as I listened to the hateful things that Alpha said about me and my pups. But when Ryan announced that Ana woman could stay here in Glass Lake, where I’d have to see her every day, watch her grow my mate’s pup in her belly and make a play for his affections, I had to get out. I can’t believe I was actually starting to let myself fall for them but all those men ever do is hurt me. I should have known better. What the hell was I thinking? I’m pacing the driveway, deciding what to do next, when a shadow falls over me and I startle. “Kyle, what are you doing here?”“Come with me!” He demands wrapping an arm around my waist and practically dragging me along. “Ky-” My scream is cut off by a hand over my mouth. He lifts me from the ground and carries me behind an armored SUV parked in the p

    Olivia The door to the little cabin groans on it’s hinges as I fling it open, only to come face to face with Snaggletooth himself. His maniacal grin sends shivers down my spine as I back away, only to find myself trapped by Kyle’s broad chest at my back. “Where were you going, pretty?” The man taunts, the licentious look in his eye telling me all I need to know about his intentions. Now that I’m facing him directly instead of side-eyeing him from the backseat, I can see his appearance matches his putrid scent. His bedraggled beard and general unkempt appearance only proves what I already suspected. He’s a rogue. “Since when are you friends with rogues, Kyle?” I don’t bother hiding the repugnance in my tone. Kyle slides his arms around my waist, pulling me tight against him. Nausea churns my stomach at the contact but I don’t fight it, accepting the protection it affords. At the moment, Kyle is definitely the lesser of the two evils I’m facing. “I thought I told you I’d call if

    Kaden I stare blankly out the kitchen window of Declan’s parents’ house. The sun creeps over the horizon, painting the sky in a beautiful array of soft pinks and lavender, blending seamlessly into fiery oranges and reds. The colors shift with each passing moment, becoming even more brilliant. But all I see is the bright emerald, deep forest and pale honeydew of Olivia’s gorgeous green eyes and the strawberry, copper and fire red strands of her hair. Pain slices through my chest like a knife and I feel myself bleeding out on the expensive tile floor. I can’t fucking breathe without her. The pitter patter of little feet has me brushing my tears away. I have to be strong for the pups. They’ll already feel their mother’s absence. They don’t need to bear my pain too. “Daddy, where mommy?” Deacon crawls into my lap and snuggles into my chest. “She always gims us kisses in da morning.”. I look into his wide hazel eyes, so much like Declan’s, and so innocent I physically ache inside. I pu

    Declan “How’s it going?” I deliver the question with a lazy grin, my best attempt at playing it cool while stewing in unbridled rage inside. The guy at the Crimson Moon gate just scowls at me like I just ruined his whole damn day. Maybe I did. I guess we’ll see, because if he doesn’t let me in to see his Alpha, his day is going to go downhill real damn fast. “State your business.” His gruff voice sounds like it doesn’t get used often and when it does, he’s gonna say as little as possible “Not very talkative, are you? More the strong silent type.” I chatter, hoping I’ll annoy him into letting me through. Because this plan has to work. And for it to work, I have to get into Xavier’s pack. I don’t know if Liv is here, but Xavier knows something and I need to find out what it is. And it all falls on me. After what went down in that so-called meeting yesterday, Xavier would be too suspicious of Kaden. Only I can sell the ruse we’ve concocted. “Either state your business or get

    Olivia I don’t know where I am. My limbs feel heavy, more like lead bricks than flesh and blood. And my head is so fuzzy, every thought I have slips away before I can bring it into focus. Giving up for the moment, I slump to the ground next to a statuesque oak tree. Wherever I am, it’s beautiful here. Evenso, something tells me I’m not supposed to be here, that there is somewhere more important I need to be. I just can’t remember where that is. “Ugh!” I let my head fall back against the tree and try to clear my mind, focusing on the flame colored leaves and the way the sunlight dapples through the branches. After taking a moment to just breathe, I try to think back to the last thing I remember. Coming home to see Brynlee? She’s hurt, in the hospital. But no, I remember spending a lot of time with her. Mom and dads were there, too. I remember seeing them. I must have been in Glass Lake for a while but I don’t think I’m there now. I grew up in those woods but this place doesn’t lo

    Rhett The familiar scent of pine and earthy dampness greets me as I cross into Forest Trails territory. Home. Though that word feels hollow now, more obligation than comfort. Like everything else in my life lately, it’s complicated by duty and expectations I never asked for.Tracy will be waiting at the clubhouse, neutral territory for what promises to be anything but a neutral conversation. We agreed to meet here rather than the dungeon where we usually play. This isn't about scene negotiation or pleasure; this is about ending something that should have been simple but never really was.She’s already there when I arrive, perched on the edge of a leather armchair like she’s ready to spring into action. The sight of her makes my chest tight with guilt. Tracy is beautiful, willing, and uncomplicated – everything I should want. Everything I might have settled for if fate hadn't fucked with my plans."Master." The word slips from her lips automatically before she catches herself. "Rhett."

    Rhett “Fuck!” I shove the papers off my makeshift desk in a fit of rage. I fight the urge to toss the un-fucking-helpful computer too, knowing how satisfying it would be to watch it shatter against the wall. But it’s a loaner so I restrain myself. “Problems?” Kaden’s gigantic frame fills the doorway, casually leaning in with an amused smirk on his face. “All I’ve got is fucking problems.” I kick the leg of the desk for emphasis, and because I need an outlet for this fury threatening to consume me. “How can someone attempting such a massive coup hide so effectively? His fingerprints are everywhere, evidence of his plans basically begging to be found now that we know what we’re looking for, but Xander himself is a fucking ghost!” “We’ll find him.” He says so confidently I want to punch out a few of his pearly white teeth. “But none of this is on you. You know that, right?” I open my mouth to argue, to assure him it absolutely fucking is on me, but he’s running his damn mouth aga

    Brynlee Who am I? It’s the last thing I ask myself before I fall asleep and the first thing that comes to mind the minute I wake up. Who am I now that the person I used to be no longer exists. Sweet, innocent Brynlee is gone. She died the moment Xavier cornered her in that coffee shop all those weeks ago, even if she didn’t know it yet. But when he, and then his son Xander, put their hands on me, brutalized me in unspeakable ways, there was no coming back from that. No, sweet, innocent Brynlee, the girl everyone loved, who never put a toe out of line, she burned to ash in those moments. But what’s awoken in her place is something I can’t begin to wrap my head around. Contemplating a question I can’t stop asking myself but that has no easy answer is hard. Going to sleep and never waking up would be easier. But I don't. I won’t. For them. Everything I do is for them, the people that love me. My family who would never recover from my loss. A sentence I can’t impose upon them, even if

    Olivia "That's the last box," I announce, setting down a container marked 'Isla's stuffed animals' in what will become the nursery of our new packhouse. The sprawling structure sits perfectly between Glass Lake and Crimson Moon territories, a physical representation of the bridges we've built between our packs.Through the window, I watch Ryan and Reegan directing the placement of outdoor furniture while Kat and Declan’s mom, Isabella, supervise the unpacking of the kitchen. Having Kaden's and Declan’s parents move in with us feels right – the pups adore their grandparents, and after everything we've faced, keeping family close has become even more important.My own parents chose to stay in their home, a decision I understand completely. Brynlee needs the familiar comfort of those walls right now, needs the safety of the place she's known her whole life while she heals. The haunted look in my sister's eyes is slowly fading, but her recovery will take time. Time, and probably vengeance

    OliviaSunlight streams through our bedroom windows as I drift awake between my mates. Every inch of my body tingles with pleasant soreness, marked and claimed exactly as it always should have been. Kaden's chest rises and falls steadily against my back while Declan's arms wrap around me from the front, both of them holding me close even in sleep.Last night was . . . transformative. The "do-over" of that pivotal moment didn't just create new memories, it healed something deep inside me I hadn't even realized was still wounded. Every word they spoke, every touch they bestowed, every mark they left replaced old pain with new joy.Memories of last night flood through me, making me shiver between them. The way Kaden's voice broke when he finally said the words he should have said years ago: "My wolf has been reaching for you since that first moment." How Declan's hands trembled as he traced reverent patterns on my skin, whispering "Our missing piece, always our missing piece."Kaden stirs

    Declan I never considered myself much of a voyeur, never saw the appeal of watching others have all the fun. But with Liv, I could watch her in the throes of pleasure, her gorgeous body writhing in ecstasy all damn day. The only thing better is bringing her that pleasure myself. And now, it’s my turn. "My beautiful Luna," I breathe, crawling over her body where she reclines against Kaden’s chest. "I was lost without you, even when I didn't know what I was missing. Every instinct told me to protect you, to keep you close, but I fought it because I thought I had to." Kaden lifts her thighs, placing them on either side of his, opening her wide for me. Her pussy lips are swollen, her clit peeking out from under its hood. And a mixture of her slick and Kaden’s cum drips from her cunt. The sight is fucking erotic. "The day you left Glass Lake, something in me broke.” I whisper against her lips, kissing them softly and swallowing her moans when I scoop their cum onto my fingers and push

    Kaden Olivia writhes beneath me as I eat her out like a man possessed. I lap at her folds, not wanting to miss a single drop of the delicious juices she’s making just for me. I won’t stop until she’s squirting all over my face. But not yet. I feel her struggling to focus as my tongue moves between her legs. She thinks I’m teasing her, taking my time, and it’s making her desperate. That’s how I always want her, desperate for me. But it’s not my intention to torture her, not tonight anyway. "I should have accepted you the moment you told us," I breathe against her skin, my warm breath over her sensitive nub making her cry out. "The way my wolf reached for you, the emptiness I felt when you left . . .” I trail off so I can circle her entrance with the tip of my tongue, missing the delicious taste of her. “I was so caught up in what I thought I needed that I missed what was right in front of me."I suck her hard little clit into my mouth and flick it with my tongue.

    Kaden Listening to Olivia confront Kyle twists something in my chest. Her words about those lonely years, about crying herself to sleep knowing we were so close yet couldn't see her, they haunt me. Even though she's forgiven us, even though our mate bonds now pulse strong and true, the guilt gnaws at me."You're brooding," Declan observes as we wait for her outside the prison."I'm thinking," I correct him, an idea forming. "About that horrible fucking night. The first time she tried to tell us about the bond."Understanding dawns in his eyes. I don’t need a mate bond to feel his own regret surge, to see it in his eyes. "The ballroom, the night before we left for training.""We should have recognized her then. Should have felt what she was trying to tell us."

    Olivia “Where are you off to, rosebud?” Declan steps out of the office doorway just as I’m walking by. I was hoping to sneak out without having this conversation but apparently fate isn’t on my side today. I sigh, knowing I can’t lie to him and knowing he won’t like my answer. “I’m going down to the cells to see Kyle.” I answer honestly. “What did you say? Because I’m sure I must have heard you wrong.” Kaden’s gaze meets mine as Declan ushers me inside the office, anxiety radiating off of both men. "I need to see him," I say quietly, watching Kaden and Declan's expressions darken. "I need answers.""Like hell you do," Declan growls, pacing the room. "Kyle worked with Xavier, Olivia. He was part of everything that's happened. You know this. Why would you want to see him after everything he’s done?"Kaden's silence is almost worse than Declan's anger. Through our mate bond, I feel his rage warring with the need to protect me from more pain."He saved my life," I remind them softl
