FAITH

Nova smiled at me, and I could see that she was hiding something, but I didn’t push her on it. Her secrets could remain her own, just as mine could.

Still, at least one person knew more about my secrets than I did, and I needed to find them and get more information.

“I’m going to go talk to Juliana. I’ll catch up with you later.” I said to Nova, and she looked over her shoulder at the pack house just as Kaiden stepped out. He didn’t have anything with him, but as Jackson followed on his heels, listening to every word Kaiden said closely, I knew he was getting ready to leave.

I didn’t know what my place was in this and whether or not I should just wave or actually say goodbye face to face. I wasn’t even sure if he wanted me to.

He didn’t look uncomfortable as his eyes landed on me. In fact, he smiled, but I was still tense.

I had already been heading back toward the pack house, so I couldn’t just stop or turn around and walk back to Nova without making it obvious that I was a

    FAITH My eyes closed as I leaned into him. “I haven’t felt like this in years,” I whispered with a small smile as he pulled me tighter against his chest. It was like all of the weight and responsibility of the world vanished for a long moment as I listened to him take in a deep breath. I couldn’t think about anything else besides him, the man who loved me and freed me to ensure my safety. "Like what?" "Like I can breathe again." I sighed, my hands fisting the shirt over his sides. “Faith,” the breathy whisper of my name sent a shiver down my spine, and I pressed closer to him. “I do… choose you, I mean. I do. If you still want me when this is all over.” “I will always want you, no matter what happens.” The deep growl of his words made my eyes close with pleasure, and I sighed with contentment as he pressed his lips to mine, stoking the fire once again. Even his touch felt more electrifying, and I leaned in until I was flush against his body. I moaned as his tongue slid

    FAITH Fireworks exploded between us, my skin buzzing with power and warmth as he kissed me deeply and lovingly.I couldn’t even begin to understand what had been in my head before that made me resist kissing him. His soft lips, his touch… his taste. Fuck, he was addicting. My heart crashed into my chest as I pulled him closer, my fingers curling around his shirt tightly.I love you. I love you. I love you. I could hear his voice on repeat in my head, and I never wanted to forget it.The amulets between us warmed, but it only encouraged me to press closer, craving the warmth and the pulse of power he was unconsciously sending me. I moaned as I slid my hands up his chest to tangle in his soft hair, and he held me tighter to him. I could kiss him for hours, days even, and never be sick of him. My toes curled as I felt how aroused he was, and I started to lift my leg to wrap it around him when he pulled back suddenly. His eyes glazed over, and his body tensed. Someone was talking

    FAITHGods.“I need you,” He repeated, and my breathing picked up as his thumbs brushed back and forth along my cheekbones before one dropped down to my mouth, pulling my bottom lip down slightly. “They are right, though, Kaiden. I can fight for you, but Cain…” “I will handle Cain, and I don’t need you to do anything for me or the pack, Faith.” He said, and I felt my shoulders fall. I was relieved, but I didn’t know why. “But,” I whispered, wanting to help in any way I could, even if he wasn’t planning on using me anymore. I had powers that could help. We just needed the Alliance to see that before they made their decision. “I need you safe, Faith. I won’t let them near you.” He said, and my hands landed on his chest, taking in his warmth as he moved even closer. I couldn’t get enough of this man. Everything about him called to me, and I wanted to hold on as tightly as I could, but that wasn’t realistic. We had to come up with a plan because either I would be executed or his ent

    FAITHMy hand moved up to grab the side of my throbbing face as Kaiden released me, spinning me around to put me behind him as he turned to Broderick. “Out of the question,” Kaiden said, his voice coming out low and deadly as he stepped toward Broderick. "I speak for all of us when I say..." Broderick started, but Kaiden cut him off. "No! You don't." Kaiden growled, and my free hand moved to grab the back of his shirt as black dots blurred my vision from the hit I had taken. "Speaking on behalf of another Alpha requires a written order that..." "Is not possible right now." Broderick snapped, and I could feel Kaiden's anger increasing at Broderick's disrespect and audacity. Where did he get off, thinking he could interrupt another Alpha unless he thought he was above them? Which, in hindsight, was entirely possible, as he had just tried to speak for others. I wanted to ask what it was he was demanding, but from Kaiden's reaction to it, I probably didn't want to know. It was evid

    KAIDEN I threw my head back as I laughed long and hard. Broderick’s face was red with anger by the time I was finished, and I felt lighter than before. The pain wasn’t as intense, and the wall between Faith and me was crumbling, making me feel uneasy. “I do not recall it being any of your place to vote on the execution of an innocent in my care. My bound. My woman.” I leaned forward. “It would be a shame if any of you were to violate our treaty and kill one of my pack members without them causing your pack harm to warrant it.” “It is for the good of all of our packs, Kaiden. Surely, you have to be reasonable enough to see that.” He said, his voice getting deeper. “Did you miss the part where I said she was mine? She isn’t just my Bound, Broderick. She. Is. Mine.” I growled, my beast coming forward. Faith may have been brought here as a pawn in this war to be used against Cain, but he was right. The best way to use her against him now was to eliminate her as a source of power, a

    KAIDENMy molars ground together as I felt for Faith through our bond. Her walls were up, and while I was normally able to push against them, I didn’t have the strength to do even that. Even with Faith’s blood restoring our bond and helping my healing, I should still be in the infirmary. Instead, I had to stand strong with the stubborn woman, thinking I didn’t know she was sneaking around with Will right now to look for Nova’s tracks. Broderick was only here to steal my pack from under me, so I really didn’t mind Faith not being present for the meeting, but I also didn’t want her to get her hopes up that Nova hadn’t turned on us because everything we had found so far proved that she had.And why wouldn’t she? She had gotten nothing from this pack other than pain, suffering, and loneliness. It was even in this house that she had been hurt over and over again. It was our guards and pack doctors looking the other way because none of them could take down the Alpha. If I were her, I w
