Alpha Maddox's Mortal Temptation Chapter 209
This was a fun activity, though. My favorite in a while. There’s something nice about being close to my Alpha. Taking care of him, as he does of me. Breathing in his soothing scent, preparing for what’s to come, comfort for—Whoa.Whoa, whoa, whoa.Where did my brain go just now? How long was I silent?“I guess my point is”— I clear my throat— “that your nose would tell you if something was happening between us.”“Maybe they have a cold,” Zane drawls. “Maybe that cold made their brains leak out of their ears.”“Zane, given your history—“My history?” He stands, suddenly towering over all of us. The little strands of chopped hair still clinging to his shoulders silently slip to the floor. Xabier, who spoke last, takes a step back. “Do tell me more about my history. What have I done to warrant these doubts?”“Your— ”“Think very carefully before you finish that sentence.”“Hey.” My hand meets the hard heat of Zane’s stomach, and I quietly slip in front of him, ignoring the additional

"DON’T BE NERVOUS.”“I’m not.”“Zane. I know it’s been a while for you.”“Just fucking get it over with.”“What? No, that’s not how you do it. This is an experience.”“Then make it a quick experience.”“Why are you being like this? I’ll be gentle. Am I not gentle?”“You mispronounced ‘annoying.’ ”“Oh, come on. I’m having fun.”“I wish I could say the feeling is mutual.”“Should we put down a sheet or something? You’re making way more of a mess than I thought you would. Though I guess it’s normal, since it’s been so long.”“If anyone’s making a mess, it’s you.”“Hush. I’m doing this for you. The entire pack thinks you’re hopeless, but I’ll help you show them that— ”The door bursts open, and Zane and I fall silent mid-haircut.It’s very poor timing. I’m almost done with what will surely be known, postmortem, as Anna Paris’s most challenging and powerful artistic endeavor, but two women and a man are rudely letting themselves inside and interrupting my creative process.“Does anyone ev
Alpha Maddox's Mortal Temptation Chapter 207
Zane enters the cabin in human form, finishing pulling up a pair of jeans, the worn denim soft around his hips. He doesn’t bother buttoning them up all the way, and . . . I don’t know. I guess I could rapidly avert my eyes and maybe even flush. But in a place where no one seems to care about nudity, I’m the one making it weird.Plus, I’m busy hiding the flannel behind my back. Which seems to accomplish very little, given the way Zane’s nostrils flare. I’m suddenly seized by terror: Can he smell the remnants of my sweatfest?Clearly, yes. Because he goes rigid as a statue and asks, “What is it?” The words sound a bit like a growl, as though they’re coming from deep within his body.“Nothing.” I swallow. Smile to soften the lie. “Just, my pj’s. I need to wash them.”His eyes darken. Panic prickles up my spine.“I’ll be right back. Give me a sec,” I plead, turning around and starting down the hallway as fast as I can.“Anna.” His voice is so harsh, my entire body clenches.I freeze in p

He made it sound like he didn’t want to be with me. Never mentioned that he wasn’t allowed to.“We were wondering . . .” A male voice interrupts my thoughts. When I glance up, Saul and Jorma are standing in front of the cabin, naked. I deliberately keep my eyes above their necks and try not to choke on my own breath. “Hey, guys.”Saul grins. Winks at me, like one does. “Hey, honey. Jorma and I were in the area, to . . .”“Take Zane’s beatings?” Amanda offers.“Yeah, that. And we remembered that last night you mentioned how much you love to cook. So we figured you probably made something for breakfast today, and since it’s so hard to eyeball portions, you might have leftovers. Wouldn’t want it to go to waste, you know?”I bite back a smile. “What would you guys like?”“Oh, we don’t want to put you out. Just, if you have something you’re gonna toss anyway . . .”I turn to Jorma, who’s high on directness and low on bullshit. “What would he like?”“French toast, please,” Jorma says. “Wit

I’M STILL WORKING ON GRASPING THE IMPLICATIONS OF WHAT Amanda revealed, but she’s already doling out more. “. . .not much has changed for him. Your presence, that’s throwing him off. At least, I think so— Zane’s not really the type to walk around griping about the discontented state of his nuts. And he never seemed affected by the covenant. He’s been dealing with it for twenty years, but I doubt it was a burden to him. I’ve never even seen him look at a woman, so— ”“Why?”“Excuse me?”“Lowe is with Seraphine. I know that the Alpha of one of the New England packs has a mate. Was this rule made for Zane?”Amanda massages her eyes. “It’s complicated.”“How so?”“The celibacy covenant used to be common practice in packs. The idea is that if a pack gives an Alpha absolute power over them, the Alpha should be able to guarantee that the well-being of the pack will be the most important thing for them. But if every decision needs to be made for the good of the pack— ”“Other priorities are a

THE NIGHT BRINGS SPANKING NEW LEVELS OF PAIN AND MORTIFICATION.The recollections do not abound, but as far as I can tell: I wake up a few hours after going to bed, gasping like a rhino with sleep apnea, and make my way to the bathroom as my body works through spasms, cramps, and the fire taking over every layer of my epidermis.I sit in the shower as cold water flows over my head and beg my soon- to- be corpse to pipe the fuck down. I picture Zane walking in to find what’s left of me, a beached manta ray lifeless on the bathroom floor, deflated after puking up her internal organs.That’s when it all gets fuzzy. I don’t recall getting up or leaving the bathroom. I definitely don’t recall crawling into Zane’s bed. And yet it’s where I wake up. Could be a Were evolutionary trait: in the face of probable death, seek refuge close to Alpha. I might be onto something. I should ask Zane, if I’m ever able to face him after what I’ve done to his room.It’s . . . a lot.In the harsh morning li

Every few steps down the stairs, she touched her chest and breathed through the pain. Camille didn’t have faith that she would be able to make it to the kitchen. Maddox. She needed him. Why does she need him so badly?He talked about how bad it would be for him to be away, but she never realized t

Afterward, Maddox carried her back to his cabin and placed her in his huge bed. A strange peacefulness poured over Camille. For the first time in her life, she believed that Maddox's arms were where she was destined to be. But was this all too fast? Still naked, she laid against his chest. He’d t

Fuck. This thing is powerful.“May the shadows rise. May the shadows be their demise.” The witch bellowed as Camille hit her with more rocks. Another smoky wolf formed as he battled the first one.No. We can’t have more of these. Kill the witch. Kill the witch.How he wished he could communicate i

“Is that all you came out here for, Camille?” Maddox asked. “Maybe.” Camille felt crazy being outside pretty much naked. She had worn no underwear because panties felt unbearable with this need in her being so strong.Can he tell how much she wanted him? Shit. This was crazy. She should go back in
