Ch. 11 I Want To be Strong!

Olivia Kellan Finnick and Deacon Zayne are the most beautiful creatures I’ve ever laid eyes on. The minute Mason placed them in my arms, all my sadness, every ounce of heartache just vanished. All I feel now is adoration, devotion, and overwhelming awe. Not even the fact that they are perfect replicas, a daily reminder of their fathers, can taint the joy in my heart. I feel the weight of Ellie’s stare, her eyes narrowed as if she’s trying to grasp something that’s just out of reach. She may not figure it out today, but she will soon. Maybe it was naive of me to think I could hide their paternity, but now it’s painfully clear my secret has an expiration date. “You’re coming home with us, Olivia. End of story!” Mason’s insistent tone recalls my attention. I reluctantly tear my enamored gaze from my two precious miracles to scowl at my brother. We’ve been having this same argument for two days, him all but demanding the twins and I return to the packhouse with them and me refusing t

Ch. 12 Not Yet

Olivia2 Years Later The man charges toward me, his fist swinging out in a wide arc meant to take me down from the side. But I’m faster, ducking under his punch a heartbeat before it connects. With all my strength, I spring forward, thrusting my shoulder into his diaphragm then, as he doubles over, I send him to the ground with a final elbow to the kidney. Kyle rolls to his back with an agonized groan. “Remind me again why I agreed to spar with you.” He stares up at me with that teasing grin I always find so endearing. “Because you’ve deluded yourself into thinking you’ll win.” I offer him my hand to help him up but he catches me off guard, pulling me to the ground beside him. He rolls on top of me, straddling my hips and pinning my arms over my head. “Looks like I just did.” He smirks arrogantly when I fail to buck him off. “You cheated! Now let me up!” I growl playfully. He cocks his head to one side and hums thoughtfully. “I don’t know. I kind of like having you at my mercy

Ch. 13 Another Attack

Kaden “Fuck!” I throw myself down on the bed of our hotel room, exhaustion and frustration so deep I can feel it in my bones. Two years! Two fucking years, and Declan and I still haven’t found our mates. We’ve been on the road more than we’ve been home and all we have to show for it is one fruitless search after another. It’s like she doesn’t exist.After my Beta handed me my ass all those years ago, I was pissed. But once I had time to settle down, I realized he was right. I’ve worked hard to clean up my reputation in those two years and become the Alpha my pack deserves. But I need my Luna! My pack needs her too, but I can’t find her anywhere.I feel the knot tighten in my stomach, the one I get everytime I think about the strange experience Declan and I had that day so long ago. Sometimes I even dream about it, that feeling that I’d just lost something important to me but had not idea who or what it was, and I wake up gasping for air. More and more, I wonder if it was her, my mat

Ch. 14 Alpha Who?

Declan “The other attacks were much smaller scale. They appeared to be rogues hunting for food, testing our borders to scavenge our stores.” Uncle Reegan explains.“ This is the first time they fought back when the patrol intercepted them. If they had gotten violent sooner, we would have called you home.” “You’re not the Alphas anymore!” Kaden bellows. “That’s not your call to make. Whether you like it or not, this is my pack now and I decide what’s important and what’s not. If I’d known, I would have fortified the borders. Then maybe none of our men would be hurt.” “Then you should have fucking been here!” Reegan roars, then takes a deep breath and starts again in a calmer tone. “Look son, running a pack is not a part-time job. You can’t do it if you’re never home.” “You know where I was!” Kaden growls. “You knew exactly what I was doing. I’m not out there just fucking off. I’m trying to find my Luna for this pack!” “Nobody is saying that’s not important, son.” Uncle Ryan steps in

Ch. 15 Deep Dark Secret

OliviaKyle sits across from me, staring into his plate of pasta without taking a bite. We’re at the new Italian restaurant in town but he seems miles away. In fact, in the time that we’ve been dating, it seems to be happening more and more. . “Where did you go?” I reach out and squeeze his hand. His head snaps up, a grin plastered on his face that doesn’t quite meet his eyes.“I’m right here with you.” He starts, then shakes his head when I stare back with raised brows. “Sorry. Just a difficult surgery coming up.”His voice is steady but his pupils dilate a fraction, telling me he might be lying, or at least not divulging the whole truth. But that’s okay, he’s entitled to his secrets. Goddess knows I have a few of my own. Speaking of secrets, Kyle still doesn’t know the biggest one I keep. I know I can’t put it off forever, but we’ve just been getting to know each other as more than friends. Why lay myself bare to him if things don’t work out between us?If I’m being honest, even

Ch. 16 Deal With The Devil

Kyle Fuck! She has mates? As in plural? I wonder how many but in the end it doesn’t matter. This changes everything! I should just keep walking and never look back but I can’t. Why is she here in Sacred Moon, raising her boys alone, if she has mates? Is one of them the father or is there someone else in the picture too? Why would she agree to give me a chance if she already met her mates? So many questions I need answers to. I turn on my heels, stomping back to her, and the look of pure devastation on her face almost cracks my resolve. I ball my fists at my sides, resisting the urge to haul her into my arms and kiss that look off her face. Instead, I grit out words in the steeliest tone I can muster. “Tell me everything!” “Kyle,” my name is a sob on her lips and I feel myself weakening, “I’m so sorry! Keeping my secret was never meant to hurt you, I swear! It’s just, I’ve never told anyone. And now, with the boys, it’s all become such a mess.” The words spill from her in a delug

Ch. 17 Did You Learn?

Kaden “Why hasn’t he woken up yet?” I demand of the doctor, letting a bit of my Alpha command color my tone so he knows I mean business. Everyone’s heads snap in my direction at the sound of my growl. Declan’s parents, my Grammy and Papa, hadn’t left his side since he was brought in. And of course, my parents are here with them, since Declan is my mom’s brother. So here I am, the Alpha who can do nothing to give them their son back healthy and whole. I feel helpless and it’s making me snap. “I’m sorry Alpha.” The doctor sighs in exasperation. “It’s like I told you before, his wolf is healing him, but slowly. He’s lucky to be alive. If that guard hadn’t found him when he did, he wouldn’t have made it at all. “I know it’s hard to wait but it’s actually better this way. The longer he sleeps, the easier it will be for his wolf to return to full strength. It’s fortunate the guard recognized the scent of wolfsbane and used the gas mask or you’d have two dead men on your hands.” With th

Ch. 18 Man In The Mirror

Declan “Nerve damage?” Kaden questions, scowling as if the words themselves taste bitter. “And he has no idea why your wolf healed all but your legs?” When I suddenly woke from my weeks long coma to find my legs didn’t work, the doctor chased everyone from my room while he assessed the damage. When he was done, he could only shake his head and take a stab in the dark at why my wolf had been able to rid almost my entire body of the effects of the concentrated wolfsbane I’d inhaled, but my legs remained flaccid, useless. He’d decided it must be damage to my spine, affecting the nerves to my legs, but I know the truth is not so easily explained. “That was his best guess.” I confirm, allowing him to help me from the hospital bed to the wheelchair. “He said there’s still a chance I could walk again, with time and therapy.” I say what I know he and everyone else wants to hear, because what else can I say? That a disembodied voice, quite possibly the Moon Goddess herself, came to me in a

Ch. 19 Ready Or Not

Olivia“Thank you for coming over.” I tell Ellie and her mates as they file through the door, their daughter Grace, running off to find my twins without a backward glance. “I know you're busy but there is a lot I need to tell you and, well, it’s better if I do it here. Nowhere to run to if I’m already home.”I huff out a nervous laugh and Kyle squeezes my shoulder encouragingly. After spilling my truth, he’s implored me to come clean to my brother and best friend, not just about the boys’ paternity but everything, even the mate bond. I’m anxious as hell but I’m determined to get my formal rejection and I know I’ll need their support while I heal.“Liv, what’s going on?” Mason asks, worry written all over his face. “And what’s Kyle doing here? No offense man. I’m glad you’ve been there for my sister but this seems like a family matter.”“Stop it, Mace! The overprotective big brother act had its place but I’m more than capable of taking care of myself now. I asked Kyle to be here for mor

Ch. 20 Irredeemable

Olivia “You didn’t have to come with me.” I glance over at Kyle from the passenger seat. “Nothing about this is going to be fun.” “I want to be there for you.” He insists. “Besides, I have friends in Glass Lake I can visit when you’re busy.” “Well, thank you.” I reach over to squeeze his hand. The minute Mason explained what little mom told him about Brynlee’s condition, Kyle insisted on coming along. I appreciate the support. I truly do. But I can’t shake the guilt eating away at me. I just wish I knew what I felt guilty for, subjecting Kyle to the disaster that is my life in Glass Lake or bringing a man home when I still have mates. Not that I owe them any loyalty. Ugh! What is wrong with me? “So, do I get to meet these friends? Admittedly, I didn’t go out much so I don’t know a lot of people outside of my family. But I’d love to meet them now.” “Uh, Sure. I mean, if you have time. You might be too busy with . . . everything.” He hedges, and I don’t miss the uncertainty in
