KAIDEN

I stared over the bodies in the field, furious because I knew this was just another distraction.

He had sent weak and malnourished wolves, prisoners most likely, as they had burns and bruises on their wrists and ankles, to fight his battle for him.

It had been like a wave of zombies running in, their eyes full of blood lust as if they were blindly following orders. They hadn't seemed motivated to win or make it past us to the pack house.

Cutting them down had been easy enough, and looking around the corpses littering my land infuriated me. Cain was wasting my resources, which was expected of war, but he could have at least made it worth my time and energy.

This wasn’t a battle at all. This was a slaughter.

“Burn the bodies at the border. I want him to see the smoke from his pack land.” I ordered, knowing he was probably sitting back on his throne, laughing at the lives he had just sacrificed and the trouble he had caused. Even with them dead, he would be gloating that

    FAITHWill slowed, coming to a stop just as the sun began to set. I looked around at the thick forest and felt the magic in the air. There was no doubt that we had made it, Will hadn’t turned on me, but I had no idea how to get onto their land. “I don’t think this is a good idea.” He said, grabbing my arm to make me stop walking. I followed his lead and glanced down, only to immediately step back as I saw the rune on the ground. "It's not." A woman called out, and I looked up to see her almost 50 yards away, watching us. She looked familiar, but she was clearly not happy to see us."Leave while you can," She warned. "We don't take well to strangers."But I wasn't a stranger, really. I had met her before, and she hadn't killed me then, so I couldn't see why she would kill me now.“You know me! You saved me from Cain when you blew up that outpost! Remember?” I shouted, trying to remember her name as she leaned against the tree with her arms crossed. June? Jade? “Joan! JOAN!”“I don’

    FAITH“This is absurd,” I muttered as I pedaled the bike faster. Never in my life did I think I would have to steal a bicycle from one of the unshifted kids in the pack. Let alone one where my knees were almost hitting the handlebars. My thighs were burning, and my butt was hurting as I sped over the uneven ground. I knew where I needed to go, I just had to get there without leaving a trail for them to follow. I wasn’t sure how long I had been riding before I hit a dirt road and began down it, panting as sweat dripped down my face and back. The crunching of gravel beneath me was almost soothing as I hit a rhythm, moving faster than before on the smoother surface, the ride becoming easier.I almost jumped out of my skin when I heard a motorcycle approaching, and I quickly dove off the road heading for the trees once more as the engine cut off behind me. The sudden transition from worn, packed dirt to the rough and uneven landscape of the natural forest was jarring. “Faith!” The man

    KAIDENMy chest tightened the further I felt Faith go, and I held Broderick’s stare. She was running, my good fucking girl. I knew she had been listening in, and I had wanted her to be aware of what was happening, but I hadn't expected things to turn so quickly. From the look that came over the others' faces, too, none of them had expected Broderick to pull a gun on me either. Yet, the smell of silver inside the chamber made my nose tingle, and I knew he had been planning this before he even arrived at my land. He knew I wouldn't hand her over, so he came prepared to take her, and that made me even angrier, even though he had been right. No one would be taking Faith from me. Once I got her back, she wouldn't even be leaving my side.She could run, but once it was safe for her to come out, I would find her. Juliana could track her blood, and I had my bond with her, so I would be bringing her home one way or another.I could only hope that she would find somewhere to hide out for th

    FAITH Within a few minutes of Kaiden leaving, I was dressed and opening the hidden panel in the wall by our bed. If he thought I wasn’t going to follow him and be a part of this, he was so wrong. Even if I wasn’t directly in the conversation, they were discussing my life and my future. He should damn well expect me to want to hear what was said about whether I would live or die.I moved through the walls silently, counting each turn until I reached the stairs and then tracked the rooms I was passing with my fingers trailing across the dirty wall. When I reached where I thought the briefing room should be, I pressed my ear to it, listening closely for a moment, and was relieved to hear Kaiden’s voice. I waited a beat until he started talking again before opening it just enough that I could look through the crack. Anyone who looked in my direction would be able to see the wall was open, though, so it wasn’t my best plan, but it was all I had. The light was off in the briefing room,

    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 wa
