All Chapters of Caleb: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

   His touch was far more delicate than his build suggested.                                    Kylie watched Roy intently as he tended to her wound like a mother would tend to a child’s injury. She still couldn’t fathom why she wasn’t scared of the man, she had been brought into this house by a wolf, but the first person that walked in after the wolf’s exit was Roy. He hadn’t said a lot to her at his entrance and she had asked him nothing. Even now, as he wrapped her sprained ankle in a bandage, he was eerily quiet and she was conflicted as to whether she should question him about his double identity or wait on him to tell her what he felt she needed to know at his own time  The only thing she could say for certain right now wa

   “Cassandra.” Caleb called as he reached out and pried Cassandra’s hand off her cousin, he noticed Rinaldi was right next to his mate, but he had given his beta the sign to back down. He didn’t need this escalating, the only thing stopping Rinaldi from coming at Cassandra was his respect for him, “Cassie.” He called softly, he forced her gaze away from her obviously mortified cousin to him, “It’s okay.” He spoke to the wolf   Her gaze remained on him briefly, she blinked a couple of times and he watched the amber glow fade away, “Caleb…” she turned her gaze towards Kennedy who had her wrist in her hand…damn it, she had lost control again, “Oh my goodness, Kennedy, I’m sorry.”  Kennedy shook her head as she held her wrist, she could feel it aching badly, but that was the least of her problems. What did she care about her wrist whe

A light stir of the water and the image was distorted and disappeared from her view.   Trina remained seated at a spot even after the water had settled. She was coming here. Having failed with Nolan, her next port of call would be Alejandro and she would succeed with little or no effort….unless she stopped her.   Trina had enough problems in this forest, she didn’t need some bitter bitch stirring up trouble, but how would she stop her? This woman would be bringing Alejandro, information that he would cherish, granted he already knew of the existence of Caleb’s mate and even those of Rinaldi and Roy at this point, but what Gayle was bringing was something beyond whatever he had possessed previously- an insider. This woman would tell him everything he needed to know about how to infiltrate the Duncan compound and if Trina knew anything of Alejandro, she knew that once armed with that information, his next move would be t

Even though she had come here unwillingly, and had been adamant about wanting to leave when they first got here, Kennedy had to admit that the Duncan Pack’s compound was a thing of beauty to witness.  She had been indoors for the most part of her stay, but her bedroom gave her a decent view of the area, and she was particularly enthralled with the sight of the garden. The girls had inherited the love of flowers from their mothers, who had trained them up with gardening. By the time she was a teenager, Kennedy grew great pride in knowing most types of plants. She had once dreamed of becoming a horticulturist, but some events of her life had caused her to deviate from that dream. She still had a wild appreciation for flowers though, and this pack had some really nice ones in their garden…and a much bigger garden than they could afford to have.  She had been wary of strolling there though. It was one thing to know that she was possibly l

The door opened and Roy walked into the office, closely followed by Rinaldi, “You look paler than usual.” Rinaldi teased first.  Caleb let out a breath as he buried his face in his hands, “I feel like a fool.” He groaned.  “Don’t sweat it, happens  to the best of us.” Rinaldi stated, in a bid to help him feel better.  “I have never experienced such a feeling.” Roy said.  “That’s probably because you sacrificed your libido for bulging muscles and a gruff tone.” Caleb chuckled softly, as Roy cocked a brow at Rinaldi in question, but remained quiet to his teasing.  “Perhaps, if my fate were so, I would not have found myself in this mess I currently occupy.” Caleb stated softly. His words brought back the dour mood to the room.  “You cannot be dealt a fate you cannot na
