All Chapters of Pregnant For My Alpha Lord: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

“What else are you hiding from me?” I whispered, dragging my thumb over her small knuckles and feeling the velvet smoothness of her hand as it rested on the silk sheet of my bed.“She’s not her.” Fallon stood hugging herself in the open doorway of the bedroom with the light from the sitting area beyond filtering in to my dark space. “I don’t know how this happened, but I swear she isn’t like mom.”“I know that.” My beast rumbled inside me, issuing a warning for Fallon to stay back.Aspen was too warm and full of spark to be a wasted junkie living for their next fix. It was a miracle any of our kind could slip to the level our mother had gone. Shifters had a fast metabolism. Even now, I could smell the drugs burning through Aspen’s system. But my mother, like many others, turned to animal tranquilizers and street modifications in potent cocktails when the pressures of the world became too much.The epidemic of loneliness. That’s what the newspapers were calling it. The growing populati

“Aspen, stop.” Fallon started growling as I rose to stand. “I didn’t mean it as a challenge. Edith didn’t drug you, but we–as in all of us–will find out who did.”“We?” I looked around the empty suite dramatically, as if there were more people hiding somewhere. Granted it was big enough to fit a whole classroom in here.“I’ll explain,” she said. “Will you sit down?”I crossed my arms. “Explain what?”“Really, you’ll want to be sitting for this.”That made me want to keep standing. “How bad is it? Should I go brush my teeth first?”“No, I can’t let you…” Her eyes widened.“You can’t let me what?”“Leave.” She winced.We might have a problem. I pulled on my wolf, getting ready to draw on her strength if I had to. She ignored me, yawning. Seriously?Relax. It’ll be okay.“You can’t let me leave,” I repeated, taking a step toward the door.“Damn it Ranger,” Fallon muttered before taking a big sip of her coffee. “Yes. You’re not allowed to leave. My brother thinks you’re his fated mate and

I might have finished the hunt earlier if I wasn’t being picky about my predator, but this was one of many debts needing to be repaid. It wasn’t that I had a vendetta against all cats. There was one on my payroll now after all. But mountain lions were out of control in the Rockies without a natural predator and it just so happened one had hurt my mate’s grandfather. The debt was paid by extension.This felt right in a way I couldn’t explain and it wasn’t only the gift of retribution. It called to my base instincts–the need to provide for my mate. The hunt was finished and today I’d know if all the work I’d done over the past few weeks would come to fruition or not. And if it didn’t?I’d find another way.But I had bigger things to focus on now. Aspen would need space carved into my home and pack. We’d have to get her grandfather set up. And I’d do whatever it took to make her life one she wouldn’t want to escape from.My chest felt a little fuller and my stride a little longer as I ca

Fallon gave a short wave. “Don’t freak out.”I ignored my sister, fixating my gaze on Aspen as she sat with the other Lunas. She wore pale blue dress pants with her ankles crossed and her hands were folded in her lap like a prim and proper princess as she stared back at me with her chin raised high.And she looked pissed.I dropped the lion on the platform and pulled on a pair of shorts from the basket beside the stage. My gaze never wavered from Aspen, even as a cameraman shoved a microphone in my face.“Mr. McCaw, how do you think your animal will stack up against the others? The viewers say you should have won the obstacle course. Do you think you’ll win today?”I growled at him, but the fresh-faced human was too eager for a response to recognize the threat.“How is Aspen Nuva? Are you two making plans for the season?” he continued the rapid fire.His questions were ones I wanted answers to, too. I dragged a hand through my hair, realizing how feral I looked with blood still coatin

My belly warmed just thinking about how this date would go. The other day after the obstacle course was just a tease. I needed to get laid.Now you’re talking. My wolf gave a little stretch, getting herself limber for tonight. Just in case you can’t seal the deal.You wouldn’t, I teased the dirty beast of mine.Oh, I most definitely would.The knock at the door made me frown. I heard his signature growl before his voice was in my head. “Aspen, what the fuck? Tell these guys to back off.”I sighed as I hurried to open the front door of the hotel room where Beau and Ivan were strong-arming him.“Luna?” Ivan asked.“It’s fine.” I waved him down, still feeling awkward about the whole Luna thing. “He can’t do anything to me now. What do you want, Trenton?”There was an angry tick in his jaw as he jerked his arms away and brushed himself off. “Let’s talk about this, alone.”“No.” Ivan stepped forward. The big guy was even more terrifying when you knew he only answered to Ranger.“It’s alrig
