CHAPTER SEVENTY-ONE:Hazel Ellis

He lapped at my core, his fingers working me along with his tongue. Every time I accidentally drew my mind away from him, he stopped, withdrawing his own until I reached for him again.I got faster and faster at opening for him, giving him access to the most honest parts of my mind and soul. And he moved faster for me, licking my throbbing center with increasing speed and pressure until I reached the edge.My mind pulled back, and Merrick froze. I throbbed against him, crying out in frustration."Open, Ellis. Let me feel your pleasure. Let me feel your climax," he growled into my core.I shoved my mind open, baring my heart as I moved myself against his mouth. Merrick ravaged me, taking me back to the edge in little more than a heartbeat. I held myself open as I shattered, crying out again—this time in pleasure.Merrick snarled with me, his tongue still moving over my core as I rode it out. His teeth partially shifted, and I cried out when they nicked me as I came down from my high, b

CHAPTER SEVENTY-TWO:Hazel Ellis

I tried to leave the next morning, to go show my parents that I was still alive. I walked out to the car, climbed in the front seat, sat down, and…Nope.I couldn't do it. Lifting my hands to the wheel? No way. They shook like they had when I was drugged.Merrick came out to meet me, plucking me out of the driver's seat and sitting me in the middle seat without noticing my trembling hands. He turned on the car, and my throat seized.Breathing became difficult, and I started panting, then wheezing."Ellis," Merrick's eyes knitted together in concern, his hands finding my upper arms. "You okay?""Fine. I'm fine." I choked the words out, clearly not fine. But he knew that; he knew I would say I was fine when I wasn’t."Talk to me." He brushed a hand over the back of my head, his worry growing strong enough that I could smell it."Memories of my crash are coming back." I fanned my face, unbuckling my seatbelt and scooting forward a bit, so I didn't feel so trapped. "I'm worried—sad—scared

CHAPTER SEVENTY-THREE: Hazel Ellis

Ruby shards downpoured down around the zone the gem had been.A sharp torment tore through my chest, through the same put my Alpha control as a rule lived.Screams and yells overwhelmed the room. Individuals surged toward us—toward the exit. My grizzly thundered, snatching me and holding me to him as he charged to the back of the room, through the froze ruby shifters and toward my father. Father was battling off the fellow who’d assaulted him. My mom’s body was tucked safely on the ground by Noah, who was protecting Chandler with his claim body.Merrick dropped me adjacent to my mother, and my fingers landed on her throat. Her beat was unfaltering, her breathing even.At slightest she was okay.Merrick and my father took the fellow down, Merrick inclining over the guy’s chest with his claws to his throat.“What are you doing, polar bear?” my mate snarled.The polar bears were savage, and known for taking out ruby senior citizens. “Trying to keep this city balanced,” the polar bear gro

CHAPTER SEVENTY-FOUR:Merrick Blake

Hazel was pacing again. I wanted to pull her into my arms, to set her on my lap and kiss the hell out of her until her uncertainty was gone and we were both confident in what we were facing. But I couldn’t.I couldn’t fucking touch her.I was pretty sure it was the universe’s way of punishing me for something, though I wasn’t entirely sure what I was being punished for. I’d been a dick to a number of people, and wasn’t exactly sensitive, so there were plenty of possibilities on that front.Not only could I not touch my mate, but her family was also determined to protect her from me. They wouldn’t even leave us alone in a damn room together, like we were toddlers who couldn’t be trusted not to break shit.Anyway, it was 2 AM, Hazel was still pacing, and I was sitting on the couch beside Chandler. She was the lucky one elected to remain between us from 12 AM to 3 AM. Following Chandler, it was going to be Roman’s turn, then Henley’s. There was a fucking rotation already, and we’d only b

CHAPTER SEVENTY-FIVE:Hazel Ellis

I’d just finished explaining the plan to Liv when a quiet knock on the door caught my attention.I turned, frowning. “Who the hell knocks at 3 AM?” “Who the hell knocks so politely?” Liv countered.Chandler’s eyes caught Merrick’s. She knew exactly who knocked that politely. “I’m going to go change,” she said quickly, though she was already in her pajamas.Liv crossed the room to open the door. She’d practically lived at my house growing up, so it wasn’t surprising that she already felt like my parents’ new place was her turf.She pulled the door open and revealed her True Mate on the other side.No wonder Chandler had left. I knew Jay had been in love with her since they were kids, and that she’d never felt the same way. Since Liv was his True Mate, I imagined the whole thing was pretty weird for her.“Great, it’s you,” Liv said unenthusiastically. “Go home.” She tried to close the door, but he caught it with both his hand and foot.“Can we talk?” he asked.“Why? So you can reject me

CHAPTER SEVENTY-SIX:Hazel Ellis

As planned, we started with the primates the next morning. It was too far to run in wolf form if we were going to do anything else that day, so we had to drive. It took me twenty minutes to get myself buckled into the truck, my knees lifted to my chest and my arms wrapped around them in an attempt to feel safer, but I did it. And I felt good about that, even though my whole body was clenched and sweating as I anticipated another crash that I logically knew wasn’t coming.Merrick drove, and he kept glancing over at me with troubled eyes. He hated that I had to push past my issues, but his emotions were soothing, and that helped a little. What would’ve really helped was if I could sit next to him, his scent wrapping around me, tinged with my own.But Liv occupied the seat between us, because we apparently still weren’t allowed to be alone together.Even if we were alone together, we couldn’t touch if we wanted to keep living. And we wanted to keep living, so that was out of the questio

CHAPTER SEVENTY-SEVEN:Merrick Blake

We stopped at our den for lunch. Liv and Hazel waited outside while I grabbed a few grocery bags and swept all of our food out of the fridge, into the bags. Since we didn’t know how long it would be until we could live together again, Hazel and I figured we’d better get everything out so nothing rotted.It felt like I was moving us out of our damn house, which sucked.“Thanks for doing that.” Hazel’s mind brushed mine as I strode out of the house, locking the door behind me.“I wish I didn’t have to,” I replied.“Me too.” Her voice grew quiet.All three of us ate in the bed of my truck, Liv infuriatingly remaining between me and my mate at all times.I was getting really fucking tired of being treated like we were kids who couldn’t manage to keep ourselves apart for the sake of our own lives. I’d play along for a few more hours, but pretty soon I was going to be ripping apart the person who insisted on sitting right between me and Hazel.We were adults; we could survive looking withou

CHAPTER SEVENTY-EIGHT:Hazel Ellis

Liv didn’t mention that we smelled like lust—a very un-Liv-like thing to do. She stared out the window quietly all the way to the birds’ land. When we got there, she stayed in the truck again while Merrick and I headed into the wild crowd of shifters.I didn’t expect to run face-first into Darius the dickish griffin, but that’s exactly what happened.“Oomph,” I grunted, bouncing backward. He’d walked right into my path, not even noticing me. My reflexes were sluggish, lack of training showing through, and I hated it.“Shit. Sorry.” Big hands closed around my biceps. “Hands off,” Merrick growled.I elbowed the asshole in the gut when he didn’t release me. His pained grunt was music to my ears, but he still didn’t release me.I noticed the pulling sensation, and the energy moving from him into me. Shit—the curse. He was good and stuck, curse giving him back his griffin form in exchange for his energy.“Damn curse,” Merrick snarled, grabbing the guy by the shirt and yanking him away fro

CHAPTER SEVENTY-NINE:Hazel Ellis

We couldn’t test my theory the moment we got back to my parents’ place, because it was full of werewolves.Granted, they weren’t random werewolves. They were my family—some by blood, but mostly friends who had chosen to be family.“Hazel!” My aunt Arla swept me into her arms. Before she could lift me up off the ground like I knew she would, she halted.Frozen by the curse, of course.“Hi everyone.” I glanced around the very-full room. It wasn’t exactly what I wanted to go home to after an incredibly long day of not being able to touch my mate, but I could guess why they were there.“We need our wolves back.” London gave me a big smile. Liv must not have told her about being rejected yet—London would be pissed. She was a much more vocal mama bear than my own, and she would sure as hell be having words with Jay if she knew.“You smell like a guy,” Arla drew back, glancing at Merrick with a frown. “But not him.”Merrick growled. “Shower first, then we’ll help everyone.” He gestured towar

CHAPTER EIGHTY:Merrick Blake

Most of Roman and Henley’s friends left after we gave them back their wolves. From what I heard a few of the women whispering about, they understood that Hazel and I needed privacy. I wanted us to move back to our place, but the privacy wasn’t worth the risk that would come with accidentally touching when no one else was there.Only Arla and Kyler remained—Hazel’s aunt and uncle.“Come on.” Hazel dragged me back to our room, though there was no actual dragging involved.“Okay, put on sweatpants and long sleeves, and tuck them in,” she instructed.I obeyed, changing my clothes while Hazel did the same. She handed me a sweatshirt next, and ordered me to pull up the hood and tighten it so it covered my neck. I obeyed that command, too, then put on the long socks she insisted on. I didn’t have any gloves in her parents’ house, but she dug some out of her drawer for herself and tugged them up to her elbows, over the sweatshirt so there was no way they could wiggle off.“Mom,” Hazel yelled
