“I don’t fucking care what the council says! I’m going to get my mate and pups back, even if it takes a war to do it!” I sweep my arm across my desk, sending the contents flying.

“Son, I’ve been where you are.” My father, Reegan, says giving my mother a meaningful look. “I know how you feel. But we have to go about this the right way.

“If Xavier has them and he intends to ransom them in exchange for the pack, he’ll have to keep them alive. If you show up with an army, who's to say he won’t hurt them before you can get to them. We need a plan.”

He’s right. I know he's right, but I don’t want to accept it. I want to burn the world down to get to my family. Not sit here in this office and strategize.

“I need to get some air.” I storm out of the room, leaving Declan behind to deal with our parents.

They’re all there. My parents, Declan’s parents, and Olivia’s parents. Even my Uncle Dillon and Aunt Zoe came. I swear they have some kind of family phone tree. Tell one of them someth

totally. I felt major ick after finding out he once loved Olivia's mom. And then he tried to erase all of Olivia's memories of Declan and Kaden. He's seriously messed up.

    Declan A loud crack reverberates through the open field. Kyle’s eyes turn rabid and his lips turn up in a maniacal grin as he swipes his thumb over the streak of blood where Aunt Sarah’s nail caught his skin when she slapped him. “What is wrong with you?” She screams, still swinging at him while Uncle Finn holds her back. “Why are you doing this? Where is my daughter?” “Why?” Kyle spits back, his tone incredulous. “Do you really need to ask me why? You were mine! MINE! Until he came along.” He shoots daggers at Finn over her shoulder. “I would have worshiped you! But you chose him over me. Nevermind he cheated on you, fucked an entire pack worth of she-wolves, broke your heart.” Finn and Zayne both growl menacingly but Kyle ignores them, chuckling wildly. “Shut the fuck up, now!” Finn snarls. “Is the truth too painful for you, Beta? You don’t like being reminded that you never deserved her, that she’s only with you because fate made her addicted to your scent and she was too weak

    OliviaMy head is still spinning from everything Hester told me yesterday. She managed to get rid of Xavier, convince him she hadn’t seen me. But as of yet, she hasn’t come up with a way to get us safely out of here. I feel like a sitting duck with nothing to do but wait for the hunter to decide when my time is up. Wait and obsess. Because as much as I know the past can’t be changed, I can’t stop myself from obsessing over all the what ifs. What if Hester never cast her spell, never messed with our lives? How could my life have been different? How much heartache would I have been spared if she’d never interfered?Over and over again, like laundry tumbling in a dryer, my mind keeps circling back to the same questions. Were my mates always going to be the hateful, malicious men they turned out to be, or would they have loved me from the start? Would I have been a born Luna or would I still have to fight to overcome my weakness? I think I might go mad wondering.Thinking about Kyle only

    Kaden I pace back and forth, horrified and frantic as I wait for Declan and Mason to bring Kyle out from the cells. I couldn’t trust myself to go with them after hearing what Brynlee had to say. The mere fact that he would align himself with a monster like Xavier warrants a death sentence in my opinion. The words she said won’t stop playing in my head and the sight of her, looking so frail and broken, the ghosts of her trauma haunting her, it torments me. No sign of the bubbly, vivacious girl she used to be remains and I doubt she’ll ever be that girl again. Not after what she’s been through. Hearing what Xavier did to her, had others do to her, it terrified me. I knew he was power hungry, knew he planned to use my mate and pups against me. But I hadn’t allowed myself to consider what punishment he’d impose if Olivia refused to cooperate. We can’t take the chance that he’ll do to her what he did to her sister. I can’t even think about what he might do to our pups. He’s already

    Kaden Leaving the car behind, Mason and Rhett shift, making quick work of the two guards on the other side. Xavier should have posted more men but the arrogant ass probably thought we’d never find out. Declan and I stay in human form so we can keep a handle on our prisoner. The wolves flank us, all of us on high alert. Kyle may be delusional enough to think Olivia still wants him, but that doesn’t mean I trust him not to try something stupid. “Olivia was with Xavier when I left to meet you.” Kyle reminds us. “But we can’t just march in there, too many guards everywhere. “We should go to Hester’s first. She knows everything going on in the pack. She’ll know exactly where he’s keeping Olivia so we don’t waste time looking. And the boys are with Hester too.” Declan and I both stifle a growl, wanting to rip Kyle’s head from his body for leaving our pups with a witch, but knowing we can’t afford to be heard. Just one more thing he’ll pay for as soon as Olivia is safe. He leads us

    Declan “Where the fuck is he?” Rhett tosses aside severed body parts, kicking others out of the way as he searches. “Where’s who?” It’s an automatic response, my mind still grappling with everything I just witnessed. One minute I’m preparing to rip into Xavier’s men, only to realize we brought teeth and claws to a gunfight. Fear laced every breath as reality crashed down around me. We underestimated him. We have an army waiting just outside the borders but we thought we could handle this covert mission alone. We were mistaken. Or were we. I hear gunfire, expect to feel the piercing of a bullet ripping through flesh that never comes. I leap into action, determined to take down as many men as I can before I’m killed, but suddenly they aren’t there. In their place are their mutilated bodies, cut down by . . . what? I’ve heard my mother talk about the things Auntie Kat can do but I’ve never seen it in action. I even knew Ellie inherited some of her power but Kaden just assumed he n

    Olivia“No! Don’t say you’re sorry! You go back in there and fix him!” I know I sound hysterical, shouting at the poor man, but I refuse to accept there is nothing he can do.“I was able to extract the bullet,” he explains to Declan, evading my gaze altogether, “but he lost so much blood. We tried a transfusion but so far, there is no indication his wolf survived.”“I want to see him! Now!” With strength I didn’t know I possessed, I shove out of Declan’s hold and stomp right up to the doctor, not allowing him to ignore me.His soul is still present in the bond. He isn’t gone yet! I don’t know what I can do but I can feel that he needs me. This doctor might have lost hope, but I haven’t.Somewhere behind me, I hear Ana snicker. “I hope he is dead. You don't deserve him. My father would have killed him anyway for disrespecting me. He got off easy!”That’s it! I’m done with this bitch! I whirl around and slap her across the face, feeling a keen sense of pride at my handprint on her cheek

    Kaden At first I’m surrounded by midnight, a pitch black so thick it’s almost palpable. This must be what floating in one of those sensory deprivation tanks is like, weightless, no sight, no sound. It’s peaceful. But I can’t shake this nagging feeling that I’m not supposed to be here. That I have somewhere infinitely more important to be. Why did I come here? How did I get here in the first place? The answers to those questions evade me. But I don’t linger on them for long. Because a tiny pinpoint of light flickers in the distance and my instincts are roaring at me to reach for it. So I do. Or maybe I don’t. Maybe I’m not moving at all and it’s just getting closer. Either way, it grows until nothing of the darkness is left. Just a bright light, blinding in its intensity.The light slowly softens, like sunbeams through the trees on a summer day, and my surroundings come into sharp focus. The scene is idyllic, trees and gardens and hills with waterfalls cascading into crystal clear

    Olivia Declan bursts through the door at the sound of my scream. He pulls me into his arms and holds my head against his chest, hushing me softly. But I won’t let him drag me away from Kaden completely. If I let him go, if I leave his side, then he’s really gone and he can’t be gone. So I hold tight to his hand while I drench Declan’s shirt with my tears. My Beta mate has to feel it, the absence of his Alpha, his bond-mate, but he stays strong for me. My chest burns, a throbbing, pulsing fire filling the hole where Kaden should be, the flames licking at my heart, slowly burning it to ash. How can I feel so empty and so full of agony at the same time?I break free from Declan and throw myself on top of Kaden, clinging to him like a lifeline even when I know there’s no one at the other end to pull me to safety. For the shortest time, he was my safe harbor and now, he never will be again. I don’t know how to breathe without him anymore. Gut-deep wracking sobs escape me as I bury my f

  • Tryst Of Fate: Caught Between The Alpha And Beta   Epilogue

    Brynlee "Left!" I call out, moving in perfect sync with Rhett as we corner the rogue wolf we've been tracking for three days. Our client, the Mountain Ridge pack, watches in amazement as we work together, perfectly matched.The rogue doesn't stand a chance against our coordinated attack. Within minutes, Rhett has him pinned while I secure the spelled restraints."Impressive," the Mountain Ridge Alpha says. "Your reputation is well-earned.""We work well together," Rhett responds, his hand finding its natural place on my nape. Through our bond, I feel his eagerness to finish here. To get home. To Maya.The thought of our daughter makes both our wolves restless. Three days is the longest we've been away since her birth four months ago.“Grace says she's been practicing," Olivia tells us over the phone as we drive home. "The little witch is already moving her toys without touching them."Rhett's grip tightens on the steering wheel. Even after two months of knowing about Maya's magical ab

    Brynlee "It's a girl," Grace announces with a smile as she completes my monthly check-up. "And she's thriving under your mate bond. Both of your energies are strengthening her."Rhett's hand tightens on my shoulder. Through our bond, I feel his fierce joy mingled with protective instinct."A daughter," he murmurs. "To raise as strong as her mother.""And as protected as her father makes her mother feel," I add, covering his hand with mine.We're in the pack gathering hall, where wolves mill about preparing for tonight's announcement feast. Rhett and I will officially share our plans to become trackers, to help other packs while maintaining our home ties here."Speaking of protection," Grace says carefully, "have you decided where you'll be when . . .""Here," Rhett answers immediately. "We'll time our contracts around the birth. Make sure we're home for at least the first few months.""Both packs will help," Finley adds, entering with a stack of paperwork. "Though from what I hear, yo

    Brynlee"Please remind me, Sir. Make me yours again."And with that, the last of his restraint dissolves, leaving my sexy Dom standing where my gentle mate was only moments before. “Follow me.” He demands, turning away and trusting I’ll obey, that trust only making me want to please him further. “Sit.”I take a deep breath as I lower myself into the chair he led me to. It’s a wood-framed chair that’s slightly reclined, a pillowy black cushion that I sink down into stretched across the surface. There are strange leather loops protruding from the wood at the top of the chair and it’s immediately clear the entire thing was built for one very specific purpose. “Arms up over your head, little wolf.” His command is a deep rumble that sends a frisson of pleasure straight to my clit. He steps behind me, and though I can’t see what he’s doing, I’m not afraid. Excitement and eager anticipation is all I can feel. Until he wraps soft cuffs around my wrists and attaches them to the leather loops

    Rhett The pack house buzzes with activity as one of the elders works with other witches to break the spells on affected pack members. Grace moves between them, checking for injuries, while warriors secure Xander and Tracy in spelled cells deep underground.But all I can focus on is Brynlee."You need to be checked," I murmur against her hair. We haven't broken contact since the fight ended, my hand resting possessively on her nape."I'm fine," she starts to protest, but stops at my growl."Grace. Now." I let dominance color my tone, watching her melt into the command."Yes, Sir."Heads turn as we cross the great hall - not with the previous worry or pity, but with new respect. My collar sits proud at her throat, her submission now obvious and willing. No more pretense. No more hiding."The baby's fine," Grace announces after examining her. "Actually, it's more than fine. The energy is stronger, more stable." She looks between us. "Whatever happened during the fight seems to have stren

    Rhett Training takes over as I evaluate our options. Spelled wolves on three sides, children still in danger, and Xander approaching from the north.Through our bond, I feel Brynlee's certainty. “Trust me,” she pushes through our connection. “Like in training.”"Grace," I command quietly. "Get the pups out. Dad, contain the spelled wolves. Tracy's mine."Before Tracy can react, Brynlee moves - not away from danger but straight toward it. Toward Xander. Every instinct screams to stop her, but I force myself to trust. To let her fight her own battles while I handle mine."You're done, Tracy." I let my dominance fill the space between us. "Your spells are weakening. Your control is slipping. Submit now and—"Her laugh turns hysterical. "Submit? Like your precious mate? The one walking straight into Xander's trap?"But she's wrong. Through our bond, I feel Brynlee's strength. Her purpose.This isn't her walking into a trap. This is her choosing to face her demons. And my job isn't to stop

    Rhett "I can't do this anymore!"Brynlee's voice carries across the pack grounds, perfectly pitched to convey desperation. She's standing just where we planned, moonlight catching the tears on her cheeks."You don't have a choice," I growl, playing my part. "You're mine.""No!" She backs away, one hand going to my collar. "I'm not yours. I'm not anyone's. And I won't let you control me anymore."The gathered pack members shift uncomfortably. In the trees, I catch multiple scents - Tracy's spies, spelled wolves, others waiting to report back. Perfect."Don't." My voice drops dangerously as her fingers touch the collar's clasp. Everything in me rebels at what comes next, but we've planned this.The sound of the collar hitting the ground echoes in the sudden silence.My roar of rage is only partly acting. Even knowing this is planned, seeing her remove my collar makes Kian nearly uncontrollable."You'll regret this," I snarl, advancing on her. Right on cue, pack members move to intervene

    Rhett "They've made contact." Dad’s voice is grim as he hands me the surveillance photos. "Tracy met with Xander last night, just outside our borders."I study the images, fighting to maintain control as I see them together, heads bent in conversation. Planning. Plotting. Against my mate."Show me where."He points to the map. "Here. Notice anything interesting?""It's a focal point," I realize. "Between three locations where we found spelled wolves."More photos show increased movement around our territory. Unfamiliar wolves. Dark magic signatures. All converging faster than we anticipated."They're not waiting for the new moon," I say quietly."No." Dad marks another location. "The elders detected four more spelled wolves this morning. All moving into position. Whatever they're planning . . .""It's happening soon."My phone buzzes - Finley: Tracy spotted watching breakfast. Your move.Which means another public performance. Another scene of Brynlee rejecting my claim. Each time cut

    Brynlee It takes everything in me not to lean into Rhett's touch when he reaches for me at breakfast. Instead, I force myself to flinch away, hating how his scent spikes with controlled aggression - even knowing it's an act."Don't," I say, letting my voice shake just enough. "Please. I just-, I need space."His hand drops, but not before I catch the subtle brush of his fingers against my collar - a private reminder of what's real. Of what lies beneath this performance."You're wearing my collar," he says, loud enough to carry to the curious pack members pretending not to watch. "My claim."I touch the collar, letting them see uncertainty instead of the comfort it truly brings. "Maybe that's the problem."The whispers start immediately. I catch fragments - "too soon," "traumatized," "rejecting the bond" - exactly what we want them to hear. What we want Tracy to hear when her spies inevitably report back.Rhett growls, playing his part perfectly. "We'll discuss this later.""There's no
