I held my breath, waiting for Dom to confess his feelings for her. I felt sure Tavi was also holding her breath.“I need to be honest with you about the way you make me feel. I used to think my feelings for you were what a brother feels for his sister, but they’re different than that. I—”Tavi raised her hand, and Dom’s mouth shut immediately. My eyes widened; not even Night could shut Dom up so quickly.“I…” she hesitated, rethought what she wanted to say, and began again, “Dom, I’m not sure what you’re about to say, but if you’re going to tell me what I think you’re going to tell me, I want you to know that I don’t think I’m ready.”He gazed at her as her words sunk in. “What do you think I’m going to say?”“I-I think you’re about to tell me that you, uh—” Her face went bright red, and she busied herself by gathering her dark hair over her shoulder.“That I like you,” he finished gently. “That I care about you. That I’m ready to be more than friends with you…whenever you’re ready to

“That’s the old me,” she spat bitterly. “The one who hadn’t been ruined—”Dread held me fast with its icy claws. Suddenly, the question that had always lingered at the back of my mind when I thought of Octavia rushed to the forefront. I had to ask, to confirm the terrible fear I’d been too terrified to think about. “Tavi, what did those wolves do to you?”She closed her eyes briefly, and a bone-deep shudder traveled through her body and into mine. When she opened them again, I had my answer.I pulled her against me again, hugging her even more fiercely. My wolf was growling, her rage just as complete as mine. “I’m sorry, Octavia.” My voice was a rasping whisper. “I should have had them locked up with Troy. Or killed.”“I know you would’ve. If I’d asked that from you, or if I’d told you the truth sooner, maybe they would still be in prison. Maybe they wouldn’t have been able to break Troy out.”“No.” I gave a vehement shake of my head. “That is not your fault. There’s no time limit on

“You figured right.” She smacked me on her way to her vanity and patted the stool. “Sit, sit.”I took the seat and combed my hair back before she grabbed her scissors. My wolf purred, and I blinked slowly from the soothing feeling. This was the first time she played with my hair like this, and it was so relaxing I could almost fall asleep.But all too soon, it was over.“What do you think?” she asked. “I know you like the sides shaved, but I don’t have clippers.”I ran my fingers through my hair, mussing it a bit. She was right that it wasn’t quite my preferred style, but it was far from bad. In fact, it looked great. For my purposes, which was to keep my hair out of my eyes, she’d gone above and beyond. Now I’d not only claim the alpha spot in front of every King who’d ever doubted us, but I’d also look good doing it.In the mirror, I saw her chewing her lip as if waiting for me to say it was the worst hairstyle ever. I pulled her into my lap and kissed her. “I love it. Thank you.”S

Bryn had to be there to announce the new alpha. Had it been up to me, I’d have preferred she not be there at all. She would worry every time I got a scratch or someone landed a punch. I wasn’t planning on letting that happen often, but I knew my mate, and even minor injuries would bother her. Not to mention that she wasn’t one for violence—at all. It wouldn’t be easy for her to watch.I glanced around me and tried to assess some of the men I’d be competing against. It was obvious who the competitors were because they, like me, were shirtless. I spotted Xavier right away, standing still as a statue, surveying the wolves in attendance like he was already their alpha. I smirked. He was in for a rude awakening.I tried to find Lance but couldn’t see him in the crowd. “Dom, do you see Lance anywhere?”It was a couple of moments before Dom responded. “I don’t.”Of course. It shouldn’t have mattered, but it annoyed me that I didn’t know Lance’s exact location. It seemed that asshole could po

His sharp teeth gleamed in the sunlight. Xavier was strong and bulky, but when we met in the middle of the ring, he couldn’t push me back. Bellowing his frustration, he nipped at my throat, desperate to get my fur in his jaws. Ducking those snapping jowls, I took a page from my mate’s fighting playbook and got my head under his belly.I bucked, and he flew through the air with a surprised yelp. He crashed to the ground with a thud. The tide shifted in the crowd. Those who were screaming for Xavier to kill me were drowned out by my pack’s cheers. My blood thrummed powerfully through my body, and I’d never felt stronger in my life.Xavier struggled to his feet, his breath so hot that it fogged at his salivating mouth. He’d landed on his right leg. He couldn’t put any weight on it. Time to stop playing with him and end this.I rushed him, no longer in the mood to drag this out. Claws out, he pawed at me, scratching my shoulder as I tackled him. I barely felt it. I opened my mouth and sla
