Zach POV

“Are you scared?”

I know she isn't even as I ask her this. Rather than fear, the fruitcake seems intrigued. And little confused.

“No,” she shakes her head. “I'm not scared.”

After what happened on Saturday night, I already decided it is dangerous to be locked in a room or cage with Kerris Hart. That night made me realize how powerless I am to the beast's raging desire for the girl.

The fact that I've just learned of her true nature doesn't change my decision. And I'm right to be caut

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   60. Age-old hunger 2

    Linda doesn't turn around still. Is she pretending not to feel someone behind her?Then again her senses cycle with the moon, and as a half-blood, they aren't always equally sharp throughout the lunar cycle. Right now they might be too dull for her to sense that a male is many feet behind.He continues to follow her soundlessly until they reach the second floor and she stops in front of her door.“Linda.”She spins around so quickly that surprise flashes across her face. For one brief second, Gareth is distracted by wide hazel eyes staring at him with shock.Then he realizes how suspicious this must look. He speaks before she can accuse him of following her.“I ran into Gamma Rockwell and heard something fascinating." He continues toward her. "I was heading back to work when I saw you come in here. I'm curious about your chat with the guy. That's why I'm here.”The way she studies him tells him immediately that his explanation isn't convincing. Too many words.And she knows him well e

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   59. Age-old hunger

    Gareth (Third-person POV)“Book a place at the resort near Hastings Lodge.”“Yes, Alpha.”“Let Gwen move there. At least she'll be close to Linda. Let her remain there until my son is ready for us to go and meet her parents.”There is a short silence.“What if Alpha Caden disapproves?”Gareth almost smiles. “Oh he will disapprove.” There is no doubt about that. “But don't worry, he's too busy to do anything about it. His mission with the King isn't concluded yet, and I'm sure Miss Blue is taking up enough space in his head already. Much more than the female he's supposed to show to the world.”Gareth ends the call feeling considerably more satisfied than he did moments ago.This solves the immediate problem.The next time Caden goes to see Miss Blue, Gwen won't be there to interrupt them. And if Gareth knows his son at all, that won't be the last visit.In fact, it will probably be the beginning of many more. Everything is finally falling into place.Well everything except one thing

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   58. Alpha dad's business

    Gareth (Third-Person POV)As Caleb stares back at him, waiting for Gareth to begin, Gareth decides the male already understands why he asked for this meeting. There is no point wasting time with pleasantries. Straight to the point works best with someone like Caleb Rockwell. The warrior is usually a male of few words, and judging by the way his eyes have already started to drift toward the clock, he is beginning to regret agreeing to this conversation.And they have been sitting here for barely fifteen seconds.“Gamma Linda Hyde,” Gareth begins. “She met with you in your castle office in the middle of the night. I need to know why.”For a brief second, Gareth expects the obvious response.May I ask how that your business? She's not your mate or Luna. Gareth is already preparing his answer.Linda is the mother of his son. Whatever she is doing in a royal office, Gareth has every right to know about it. He doesn't care that Caleb reports directly to the King. He doesn't care that Lin

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   57. Uncalm

    Marissa POV“She's not going to be.”Something inside my chest loosens before I can stop it. Damn relief. The realization makes me angry with myself. I shouldn't be feeling things like that where he's concerned.His parents' faces flash through my mind, and I force that relief back down.“Do your parents know that?” I ask. “I doubt your mother does.”“There's a reason my family is sticking close to her.”“To make her your Luna once you settle into your pack?” The words come out sharper than I intend. “Isn't that the same reason you were all over her last night?”His brows draw together. “All over her? What are you talking about? All we did was dance.”The defensive note in his voice catches me off guard. For a moment, I almost forget to be angry.Then he says my name.“Rissa...”The way he says it. No one else can imitate. His voice drops, carrying through me like a touch, and when he takes one step toward me, warmth immediately spreads beneath my skin again.“Stay where you are,” I

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   56. Her noisy head

    Marissa POVIt takes a long while for the tingling in my body to fade after Caden leaves. Even then, the warmth beneath my skin refuses to disappear. I press my palms against my cheeks, hoping the coolness of my hands will somehow chase away the heat still lingering there, but it does nothing. My lips still feel swollen from his kiss, and every place his mouth touched me seems to recall the moment like it's still happening.The first thing I hear after he leaves is the murmur of voices outside. My heart is still hammering so loudly that I can't make out the words. Then footsteps retreat down the hallway. More than one pair. It sounds like the whole crowd is finally leaving. He's taking her back.Caden is leaving with Gwen and returning to her apartment.I squeeze my eyes shut. I shouldn't have let him come near me. Why did I have to let him kiss me? I should have fought him harder instead of melting against him like I had forgotten every reason I was supposed to stay away from him.N

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   55. Alpha's friendly request 2

    Gwen's lips part as if she wants to ask why.I don't give her the opportunity.Seconds later, her door closes behind me while my mind is already working.Gwen cannot be far from me. My mother, Zach and Kerris were right about that.I've already compelled her to keep quiet, but that doesn't mean I can pretend the risk no longer exists. The farther she is from me, the higher the risk of "error."At the same time, I cannot have everyone assuming she's going to be my Luna.That means I need another solution. Fast. I rub the back of my neck, trying to think of something. That's when Ryder walks through the small gate.“Alpha,” he calls out the greeting. "I learned you came this way."“Beta Ryder.”His brow furrows immediately.Because I almost never call him that formally. He knows it too. Before he can ask what's wrong, I reach for the mindlink.'Do you have a girlfriend?'His eyebrows shoot up. 'No. Why?''What about a mate? Fated or chosen?'His response comes too quickly.'Goddess for
