FAITH ***The cool air of morning brushed across my cheeks, and I closed my eyes as I took a deep breath, enjoying the refreshing breeze. It was a beautiful morning, and for the first time in years, I felt like I could breathe easier. Kaiden's warm breath fanned over my neck, and I tensed as it sent another jolt of pleasure down to my core. The spot where my mark had once been, where my new mark would one day be, was only an inch from his lips. With every exhale over the sensitive skin, I felt myself growing more turned on, and I pressed my thighs together. His erection was planted firmly against my ass, and I was fighting everything in me not to rub back against it. “Where are we?” I asked, glancing around to distract myself from the burning need rushing through me. I knew feeling this way was just the blood bond from him healing me, but I didn’t want to give in. I needed time before I let another man in. What if he was just using me like Ryan had, and Cain wanted to? No. It was
FAITH The dining hall was packed, and I kept my head down as I sat at Kaiden’s side. To his left. It was the spot for the Luna, causing everyone to talk and all try to get a look at me. I didn’t want to look at them and feed the gossip because I was not his Luna, despite me smelling like him from the blood he used to heal me. The warmth of his body as he leaned into my side made me tense, and I couldn’t help the goosebumps that rose along my skin from how close he was. “You’re pouting,” He whispered, and I pursed my lips as I looked up to meet his glare directly. A few gasps came from our audience, but he just smirked as if the situation and my lack of obedience amused him. Ryan would have dragged me back to our room and smacked me. Kaiden just licked his lips as his eyebrows raised the slightest bit, and his smirk turned into a smile as if he were enjoying my defiance. With his face only inches from mine, I couldn’t help but notice that the soulless eyes I had thought w
KAIDEN“No one touches it,” I demanded, and the guard nodded, taking the closed trash bag with the head and leaving the office. Victor Cain wasn’t usually this unenthusiastic when he sent a message. He loved to make a scene and draw blood with everyone watching. Every time, he turned it into a production as he made his point, demanded his justice, or taunted his enemies. He wanted to be written into history, but the most memorable story about him would be his death once I got my hands on him. Returning the same head I had thrown at his feet on his wedding day wasn’t a message. It was a precursor for what he really had planned. The words carved into the man’s rotting flesh made a point but a weak one. I was almost disappointed. His lack of effort told me this was just a distraction and worse would be coming. I was ready for it. I was excited. His demand for me to return Faith to him was comical. If he wanted to take her from me, he would have to kill me first. Even if I
FAITH My fingers sank into the soft mulch of the flower bed, and I grimaced as I noticed the crushed flowers beneath my feet and knees. I tensed, waiting for a burst of pain to indicate I had sprained or broken something on my way down, but I was filled with pride when I didn’t feel anything. Kaiden’s blood was still in my system and would be for a few days. The strength that came from it would make escaping possible, but it would still be challenging to do so without my wolf. I had wanted to talk to the man on the post, but I doubted I would be able to escape more than once. This was my only chance.My breathing caught as the medallion around my neck warmed, and I quickly shoved my dirt-covered hands into my pockets. No one was nearby for me to touch, but I couldn’t risk it. The sky was getting darker, and I figured Ryan or Cain were hoping I was sleeping next to someone I could hurt and wanted to take advantage of it. They would know that an Alpha, no matter how strong, would be
FAITHI had to have gone mad. The blood bond had corrupted my mind, and I was losing it.There was no other explanation for the giddy butterflies swarming in my stomach and chest as I sprinted through the trees. I could feel him waiting impatiently, giving me a chance to put some space between us before he came after me.But the second he did, the second he took his first step forward, I knew. I could feel him hunting me, stalking me like I were his prey. He could have caught me within seconds, but he was playing with me, and I was enjoying the game. The border had to be only a few miles away, but I knew I wouldn’t make it before he caught me. Still, I had to try. Kaiden’s steps grew louder, and a low growl rolled over me as he closed in on me. My arm shot out, and I hooked it on a tree to steady myself as I made a sharp turn to catch him off guard. Only he was one step ahead of me, and I slid to a stop with my face only inches from his chest, my palm burning from sliding again
KAIDENNever before had I felt such bliss. Her body was calling to me. Her blood was calling to me like a siren song.Faith. “Fuck,” I growled as she clenched around me, and I thrust harder. She arched into me further, and I licked at her neck, fighting my every instinct and my wolf’s insistence that I sink my teeth into her flesh.The subtle saltiness to her skin from her run and the desire coming from her every pore was intoxicating, and I slid my palm down her thigh, hitching her leg up higher as my teeth scraped against her neck again, almost breaking the skin.My eyes squeezed tighter shut as I fought my wolf to keep control. It was a losing battle, though. He was too strong and too insistent on making her his. The blood bond was as strong as it could get, with both of us consuming the other’s blood, but I knew I couldn’t form a true mate bond with her. She wasn’t here to be my Luna, and I didn't want one. Like she could sense my thoughts, her body tensed, her back lowered to
FAITH“Master?” He asked with a chuckle. “I could get used to that.” “Don’t count on it.” I snapped, looking over my shoulder to glare at him as we returned to the pack house.His body was relaxed as he walked, the amulet hanging from his neck like a neon light, calling to me. I had been so close, and now freedom was further away than ever. I had been a fool to let myself give in to the desire because now I was too aware of how good he felt. My body was still throbbing from the memory of him as my heart wept for freedom. How did he look so relaxed? Was chasing and fucking women in the forest just a regular occurrence for him?“When were you planning on telling me that you had my amulet?” All of the times over the past forty-eight hours when my amulet warmed, and it felt as though someone was about to use my powers, it had been him.He had been testing it, toying with me. Had he tried to use it, not realizing I had to be touching someone?To think, I had even been worried about hi
FAITH“Get her inside!” Kaiden shouted as the forest around him flooded with pack wolves, and I screamed in protest as hands grabbed at my biceps, pulling me away from Kaiden. The hairs on my arms rose as a tingling sensation covered my body like a silent alarm that the worst was yet to come. I could feel something dark nearby, and I knew its attention was on us. We were being toyed with, hunted by it. It didn’t feel like Cain, and I doubted he would walk onto enemy pack land so carelessly. He had someone working for him, someone evil.My instinct told me not to leave Kaiden. Everything was telling me that if I left him, one of us would die. Whatever creature was lurking and watching us was out for blood. The burning corpse behind Kaiden was just the beginning. “Now!” Kaiden ordered.I shouted and thrashed as I was grabbed, forced away from Kaiden. He held my stare for a few more seconds while they dragged me away, and I could see the hesitation in his eyes. My heart clenched whe
FAITHI shoved at Nova as she held me down, twisting my body to reach for the woman who had thought she could get away with hurting Kaiden. The bond pulsed through me, and I could still feel Kaiden’s command through the amulet. It was dull, but it was there, feeding my desire to end the unconscious witch next to us.“Fascinating,” Juliana said, the witch appearing over Nova and me. She didn’t look aggressive or malicious, but I didn’t trust her. Where had she been while the other witch attacked Kaiden, and why was Nova protecting the little witch?I felt a burst of cold air wrap around me until my body felt frozen. Only then did it get sucked into my amulet until the metal, too, had cooled and the blood lust that had been fueling me was gone. “I’ve never seen a connection that strong between a Bearer and a Bound.”The back of my head rested against the ground as I panted, trying to calm myself as my desire to end the witch faded.“She should have been killed,” I said, ignoring Julia
