The absolute finality in Seth's deep voice settles heavily over the damp bathroom, and I stare at the unconscious man currently held securely against my partner's wet chest. I walk over to the marble vanity and pick up the small amber pill bottle that Dean just placed next to the sink, and I read the heavily printed medical label myself to confirm the impossible truth. The specific dosage instructions printed by Dr. Evans are completely illegal, and the sheer volume of synthetic blockers Beau h

  • AN ALPHA IN HEAT: KNOTTED BY THREE POSSESSIVE ALPHAS   145 - BEAU'S POV

    I ignore his question and plunge my shaking hand inside the compartment, pulling out a thick manila folder containing our emergency syndicate documents.I flip the folder open on my lap and slide out a stack of blank territory transfer agreements.These are the official underworld contracts used to hand over jurisdiction of our borders to rival factions.If Rossi wants control of our city, I will give him the southern borders to satisfy his greed.I reach back into the lockbox and retrieve my silver fountain pen.It is the same pen my father used to sign the original syndicate treaties, a symbol of royal authority passed down through generations.My fingers are slick with cold sweat, making it incredibly difficult to pull the cap off the smooth metal barrel.I fumble with the object, nearly dropping it onto the floor mat before I manage to get a solid grip."Beau, put the pen down," Rhett rumbles gently, recognizing exactly what I am about to do."I have to fill out the paperwork so I

    "The blood trail turns east, Dean. They are taking him to the abandoned meatpacking district."Seth's grim transmission echoes through the small radio speaker on the dashboard, hanging in the tense silence of the cabin like a death sentence.Dean nods once and spins the steering wheel, merging us off the main highway and onto a cracked, desolate road to follow our enforcer into the industrial slums.I sit frozen in the back seat, staring blankly at the dark leather of the front headrest while the truck crawls forward.The heater blasts warm air against my bare legs, and the rich scent of cedar pheromones fills the cramped space.Rhett is pumping his calming Alpha energy straight into our bond to keep me grounded, but I am still trembling so violently my teeth rattle.Daniel is bleeding out inside a freezing commercial cargo truck just a few miles away.He stepped in front of a sniper bullet meant for my chest yesterday.He shattered his own bones to protect his King, and I repaid his

  • AN ALPHA IN HEAT: KNOTTED BY THREE POSSESSIVE ALPHAS   143 - SETH'S POV

    I stop jogging and crouch down low to the ground, sweeping the barrel of my rifle over the faded yellow lines in the center of the road.Small, dark droplets are splattered across the gray pavement, forming a distinct, dotted line leading straight down the highway.I pull my tactical glove off and press my bare index finger directly against one of the dark spots.The liquid is still warm and incredibly sticky to the touch.It is fresh blood.My mind flashes back to the terrible moment Daniel collapsed on the floor of the estate, clutching his ruined shoulder to shield Beau from harm.The brutal mercenaries must have ripped his fragile stitches open when they dragged him out of the crashed transport vehicle.He is actively bleeding out inside the back of that freezing truck, and every drop on this road means his time is running dangerously short.I wipe the warm blood onto the dark fabric of my pants and stand back up, my jaw locking so tight my teeth actually ache.I start moving fast

  • AN ALPHA IN HEAT: KNOTTED BY THREE POSSESSIVE ALPHAS   142 - SETH'S POV

    Dean's calm, calculating voice delivers the horrifying truth, and the words hit me like a solid punch to the jaw.I stare at the deep grooves pressed into the wet mud, and a massive surge of violent, protective rage erupts straight from the core of my chest.Daniel took a bullet for our pack yesterday.He threw himself directly into the line of fire to save our sweet King from a cartel sniper, taking a brutal hit that was meant for Beau.His reward for that ultimate loyalty is a shattered collarbone, a chest full of fragile stitches, and a massive dose of heavy painkillers.Now Vincent Rossi has shoved our wounded hacker into the back of a freezing cargo truck, trapping him in a confined space with a deadly chemical weapon.My inner wolf claws desperately against my ribs, demanding blood for this terrible insult to our family.I do not waste time discussing the political implications of this discovery with my brothers.I reach down and grab my heavy assault rifle off the shoulder of t

  • AN ALPHA IN HEAT: KNOTTED BY THREE POSSESSIVE ALPHAS   141 - DEAN'S POV

    I move past the main wreckage, leaving the noise of the popping metal behind me as I head toward the dark shoulder of the mountain pass.The asphalt slowly gives way to soft, wet mud and tall winter grass.If the cartel took Daniel alive, they had to transfer him into a secondary transport vehicle waiting just outside the immediate line of fire.They would not drag him all the way down the highway on foot, because they needed to clear the area before our reinforcements arrived.I walk slowly along the edge of the road, looking for the exact spot where they pulled our hacker out of the crossfire.The wet gravel shifts under my boots as I search for any sign of a struggle.I spot a distinct set of scuff marks cutting through the dirt, leading directly away from the shattered passenger door of the flipped SUV.Daniel did not walk away from this crash on his own.The toes of his shoes dragged through the mud, leaving twin parallel lines in the soft earth.He was either unconscious from th

  • AN ALPHA IN HEAT: KNOTTED BY THREE POSSESSIVE ALPHAS   140 - DEAN'S POV

    Seth does not say a single word in response to our Boss.He just shifts his heavy boot off the gas and slams it down hard on the brake pedal.The massive anti-lock brakes stutter against the wet asphalt, sending a harsh shudder straight through the heavy frame of the SUV.Seth throws the steering wheel sharply to the left, using the sudden loss of momentum to spin us right back around on the narrow mountain pass.He hits the gas again, and we speed back toward the towering column of black smoke rising above the tree line.I sit quietly in the passenger seat and tune out the soft crying coming from the back row.Beau is falling apart in Rhett's arms, but I cannot afford to let my own emotions cloud my judgment right now.Panic and grief are useless variables in this equation, so I need to focus on hard facts if we are going to figure out where the cartel took our hacker.I reach into the deep utility pockets of my combat vest and pull out my high-powered tactical flashlight.I tap the

  • AN ALPHA IN HEAT: KNOTTED BY THREE POSSESSIVE ALPHAS   CHAPTER 5 ~ BEAU'S POV

    The heavy wood of the oak door vibrates against my back as Rhett hits his fist against the solid frame, and the loud noise echoes terribly inside my ears. I am trapped on the carpeted floor with agonizing cramps developing severely in my abdomen, and the distinct scent of my own slick is rapidly fi

  • AN ALPHA IN HEAT: KNOTTED BY THREE POSSESSIVE ALPHAS   CHAPTER 3 ~ BEAU'S POV

    The words echo in the large room, and the sheer audacity of Rhett's demand creates a heavy silence across the mahogany table. I rapidly calculate the absolute danger of his ultimatum, yet my body is far more concerned with the sharp, agonizing cramp that suddenly twists through my lower abdomen. I

    The silence inside the large conference room becomes completely oppressive after Seth speaks his accusation, and my lead enforcer Daniel immediately shifts his weight defensively beside me. I feel the sudden urge to step backward toward the wooden doors, but I force my leather shoes to remain firml

  • AN ALPHA IN HEAT: KNOTTED BY THREE POSSESSIVE ALPHAS   CHAPTER 4 ~ BEAU'S POV

    I force myself to nod once in silent agreement before walking toward the double doors. Seth immediately moves to walk directly behind me, and Dean steps to my right side while Rhett leads the way out of the conference room. We walk down the quiet, carpeted hallway in complete silence, and the absen
