Liam’s POV

My inner wolf sensed it before I did.

For some reason, I felt like it was me who had been pushed off a cliff. My wolf howled inside me, pushing against the boundaries and walls I’d built and against my control. Our mate was in danger and even with the distance between us, I felt it.

I couldn’t hold my wolf back any more than I could hold my breath, and before I could even think about what we were about to do, he burst out from me, initiating the shift while on the move. We tore through the forest like it was thin air, my wolf, hell bent on protecting his mate.

Every nerve ending of mine was misfiring, leaving me jittery and high strung. Blind rage and fear had me tearing out of my own mind as my wolf sprinted through the forest. She should have been safe. She was with her mate, she was in her territory. What went wrong?

I urged my wolf faster. Spit frothed in his jaw and his muscles were burning. The only thing keeping him from turning feral and destroying everythin

  • Bound By Deception:The Alpha’s Betrayal    Give Me My Life

    Jenn’s POV My pulse stuttered, my eyes widening as realization dawned on me that there was a rogue wolf in my fucking bedroom. The rancid stench it emanated hit me all at once. It flooded my senses as soon as I stepped into the room. My fingers tightened around my phone as instinct screamed at me to move, to run, to shift – The impact came before I could do any of that. Pain exploded across my back as I was slammed into the wall, the air ripped from my lungs in a sharp, humiliating gasp. The plaster cracked. My phone skidded across the floor. Its claws sank into my side, burning hot and vicious, and I cried out despite myself. I stumbled forward, barely able to hold my weight. The wolf didn’t shift fully – rogues rarely did when hunting indoors – but its eyes glowed feral and unhinged, lips peeled back from yellowing fangs as it lunged again. It looked like a hound let out from the deepest pits of hell. I ducked just in time. Claws grazed my shoulder instead of my throat, spinn

  • Bound By Deception:The Alpha’s Betrayal    The Cross Line

    Jenn’s POV I froze as two sets of eyes in the room snapped up to me. Imagine my surprise when I found Morgan in the same room as the man I found in the forest, but what was more shocking was her position and the look of utter surprise that was plastered on her face. Morgan was on the floor – sitting half upright with her hair disheveled, and eyes bright with shock which was quickly shifting to irritation. Tristan on the other hand looked like he just saw a ghost. He seemed more relieved at my arrival than anger. His face was flushed, and even from where I stood at the far end of the room, I could hear his ragged breathing and the rapid racing of his heart. His hands were balled into fists by his side and his jaw clenched and unclenched. “What,” I said calmly. “What the hell is going on in here?” I wasn’t sure whether to comment on the acrid smell of arousal, sweat and fear that soaked through the already dense air of the room. The silence seemed to stretch on forever before Morg

  • Bound By Deception:The Alpha’s Betrayal    What Is Going On Here

    Tristan’s POV I looked at Morgan like my life depended on it – which of course it did – desperately holding her gaze, even if somewhere in my heart, I knew she’d never grant me that one wish. Not if it meant leaving her sadistic father and his twisted legacy behind. Her expression didn’t change. Not even when my voice broke. Or when my hands shook as I pushed myself further upright despite the pain screaming through my body. Not when I said her name the way I used to “Morgan,” I said again, quieter this time. “We don’t have to do this. We don’t have to do this.” The way she looked at me made me understand that her mind had already been made up and there was nothing I could do or say that would change it. Still, I wanted to believe that there was a part of her that I could appeal to. A nerve that I could strike, a bond I could tease. She chuckled, giving me the same cold look her father always gave me before the blows landed. “I want to be this, Tristan.” She said coldly. “This

  • Bound By Deception:The Alpha’s Betrayal    I Own You

    Morgan’s POV I had made another mistake and this time, I was thankful my father was not here to see it or call it out. I winced as I thought about Tristan, found by Jenn and laying almost lifeless in the infirmary. My chest tightened at the sight of him but what made me scared the most was my father finding out my mistake. If he knew things hadn’t gone according to plan, I was terrified of what he would do. Not just to me – but to the man I loved. He might be out of my father’s territory, but that didn’t mean he was free. Prison walls didn’t always look like cells. Sometimes they looked like what my father called mercy and this was it. The Moonlit infirmary was quiet as I approached, the sterile scent of herbs and antiseptic clinging to the air. After the announcement this morning, everything was in chaos. Wade was shocked by the news but I’d seen it coming from miles away. I knew once my father let Tristan go that he was going to make a move. I just didn’t expect it to be this

  • Bound By Deception:The Alpha’s Betrayal    We Have A Deal

    Jenn’s POV I leaned back in my seat, feeling a mixture of relief and something I couldn’t quite place my finger on. The Alpha King watched in a mysterious kind of way, making me notice for the first time the tension which lingered in the air between us. It wasn’t something that rubbed me in the wrong way. It definitely wasn’t fear when I saw those blue orbs settled intensely on my face but looking way deeper than that. No, the tension was because of something else. Feelings it aroused inside me. Emotions I’d desperately tried to hide and suppress. They all rushed to the surface, sending a shiver down my spine. Underneath my clothes , I felt a biological reaction that I knew was wrong – morally. I was still married to Wade. I shouldn’t be feeling things or thinking this way towards another man even if Wade has long moved past this phase with another woman. Before my thoughts would spiral in the wrong direction, I coughed, shifting uncomfortably in my seat. The Alpha King blinke

  • Bound By Deception:The Alpha’s Betrayal    I Should Have Done This A Long Time Ago

    Jenn’s POV The Alpha King stood to his feet as soon as I entered, his eyes drinking me greedily and in a way that sent a sweet shiver running down my spine. I paused, taking a deep breath in to calm my racing heart before I stepped further into the room, taking my seat across from him. “Alpha –” I winced. “– sorry, Liam. Thanks for honoring my invite. Please, sit.” Amusement flickered on his face as I tried to stay calm and steady my racing heart. It also did not help that he was incredibly good looking. Neither did it help that he was the one person who knew my secret. That I had a life growing inside of me. A life which belonged to a man who will never choose me and never loved me. I always thought I loved Wade unconditionally. That I was willing to stay with him no matter what, but I was quickly beginning to find out that wasn’t the case. I would stay with Wade if he went through the worst, or he dragged me through mud and all. But I wouldn’t stay with Wade if he couldn’t
