• MARKED BY MOONLIGHT    Chapter 89 — Why Pretend?

  ~ KILLAN ~ Magnus rises from his chair as he replies to his daughter, “No, we have to do something.” He paces to one end. “I suggest you bring the informant to the hunt, but don’t tell the Alphas what’s going on. Arrive early and ask for a gathering. They know about the attack. They’ll have to listen.” His gaze drifts to his daughter. “I’ve spoken with my wolves. Most of them are willing to accept the mating between you and Ronan and unite our packs. Those who aren’t have been given my blessing to leave. I’m offering, right here and now, to step down as Alpha and let Ronan assume the position if that’s what it takes. I want you to be safe.” Everyone shuts up then. What Magnus just offered is enormous. In essence, he’s just handed his pack to Ronan. Everyone with a wolf’s nose can scent Ronan’s reaction. He’s shocked and panicked.

• MARKED BY MOONLIGHT    Chapter 88 — Before the Full Moon

  ~ KILLAN ~ I hadn’t intended to be a smartass all the time. I just hadn’t known how deeply my words had affected Eve on occasion. When heat in her gaze fades, her scowl vanishing, I heave a sigh of relief. “Have you changed the sparkplugs?” Tess asks, fidgeting as if she senses the tension in the room, even though she doesn't know it's between I and Eve. Until she transforms, she won’t understand why she reacts in certain ways. A wolf always feels emotion, although they usually use the ability to sense feelings as a weapon. “That could be the problem,” Tess speculates. “No, she hasn’t,” Barron interjects, placing his hand on Eve’s neck. “The car is a hunk of junk because she doesn’t care for it properly. She thinks all she has to do is feed it gas and oil, and all is well.” Barron’s eyes lift and meet mine. A rush of relief swe

• MARKED BY MOONLIGHT    Chapter 87 — No Going Back

  ~ TESS ~ The pressure in my stomach builds, a delicious heaviness coiling tighter with each of Killan's thrusts. I meet him, stroke for stroke, chasing the explosion I know is just ahead. His cock rubs all the best places inside me, his fingers playing my clit like he knows me better than I know myself. The wolf inside me stirs, rising to meet the moment—and I don’t fight it. We blend, our instincts syncing. Ours. He's all ours, my wolf growls. I cry out as the orgasm crashes into me like a freight train. My limbs shake uncontrollably, muscles spasming with each pulse of ecstasy. Heat spreads from my core through my belly and chest, my pussy fluttering around his cock. But Killan doesn't stop. If anything, he speeds up, pounding into me with ruthless intent. His fingers don’t stop teasing me, still circling my clit with maddening pressure. He leans over me, p

• MARKED BY MOONLIGHT    Chapter 86 — Offer Him What He Wants

  ~ TESS ~ “You don’t understand,” Killan rasps, his voice thick with restraint. The tips of his canines peek out longer than usual, and strands of his dark hair cling to his damp temples, framing those wild, stormy eyes. “I want to give you more. But this… this has to be perfect.” My heart clenches, breaking in a way I hadn’t expected. Why hadn’t I seen it sooner—how deeply I’d hurt him, how often I’ve pushed him away, how many times I made him question whether I truly wanted him? No wonder he’s trembling at the edge of his control. He thinks one wrong move, one misstep, will make me shut down again. And God, I’ve done such a good job of keeping him at arm’s length that he doesn’t even realize he already owns me. I yank my hands down, struggling against his hold until one wrist slips free. Before he can react, I reach up and cradle his cheek. “It is perfect,” I whisper, feeling the heat of his s

• MARKED BY MOONLIGHT    Chapter 85 — No More Lies

  ~ KILLAN ~ “You don’t know how many times I’ve wished you’d say that,” I find myself growling as I take another step, my cock nudging Tess's belly. Her skin feels like silk, a perfect cushion for my length. “Will you be mine, Simply Tess? Will you give yourself to me?” “Only if you’ll give yourself to me,” she counters, pulling her head away. It’s a challenge. One I’m ready to accept. “I’ve always been yours. I just didn’t know it then. Wolves wait their entire lives for this. The minute you walked into the shop, you changed me forever. I’ve been trying to tell you that.” “Yes,” she sighs and rests her hands on my shoulders. She runs her fingers over my skin, her gaze fixates on one of the tattoos over my collarbone. Leans against me, she repeats, “My answer is yes. I will give myself to you.” Fuck yes! --- ~ TE

• MARKED BY MOONLIGHT    Chapter 84 - I’ll Make You Mine

  ~ KILLAN ~ Elation and triumph rush through me, and electricity begins to pulse beneath my skin as I feel my beast get ready to claim its mate. I push the wolf back, knowing this has to be done properly. Tess has just been emotionally wounded by her father. She needs to be taken in a manner that shows her she's cherished. A manner that helps heal and fill her. I’ll take it slow, introducing her to our mating in a way she’ll accept and dream about for years to come. Skimming my lips across hers, I murmur, “Just so you know, you are stuck with me after this. If you run I’d find you. And you can’t hide from me. I won’t let you.” She nods as I lift her from the chair, rising to my full height. “I’m going to make this so good for you, sweetheart. You’re not going to regret mating with me. I give you my word.” I feel her tremble against me and hear the way her breath catches. Blood thunders in my ears, my cock straining against my jeans. Even though I’m trying to do the right
