Kerris POV

"Where the fück have you been?" Tyrel marches to where I'm standing.

My encounter with his uncle replays before me as he approaches. It feels so strange standing near him after last night.

"My dad's in the hospital. That's where I've been?”

His expression changes. Wait, why does he want to know where I've been? Does he suspect anything? I should ignore him and keep walking. I glance all around, but he's still addressing me, and people are moving about. How I hate that he's no longe

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   03: Fractured hearts

    Caden POVAt the mention of my mate, I turn away and motion for Mom to move.If I stay another second and Gareth says one more word about Marissa, I might attack him. I don't trust myself.Thankfully, mom doesn't argue. Neither does Gareth. He simply follows behind, keeping a respectable distance as Mom and I make our way back to River Howl.The journey is excruciatingly slow. The older male's presence alone is enough to suffocate me.From the moment I turned twelve, Gareth Stone poisoned my friendship with Marissa Blue. He trimmed my circle of friends, telling me I was no ordinary kid and it was time I chose my friends carefully."As an Alpha male, the people you surround yourself with are like arrows in your quiver. A weak, frail arrow is useless, and can only weigh you down."A few days after the infuriating heart to heart, I learned he had given the same speech to Marissa, her parents, and even the two low class Gamma boys in my group of friends.I'd refused to let him win.I insi

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   02: The Family

    Caden POVIs someone chasing her?I rushed forward, looking beyond her, extending my senses in search of any troublemaker. The wolves I detect aren't close, but they're near enough for me to tell they aren't ordinary guards."What the hell, Mom?" I bark under my breath."Caden," she says breathlessly. Her cheeks are flushed. "What are you doing beyond River Howl's border?""That's what I should be asking you." I march over until I'm standing directly in front of her, then switch to mindlink.'It's the middle of the night. You can't shift until the full moon. Did you forget? What if you'd run into trouble?'‘Were you sneaking over to the Alpha King's house too?' she links back. 'Mehn! You won't believe what I just saw!'Only now do I notice the excitement beneath the anxiety in her eyes.I brush past her, stretching my senses again to check. No one is approaching."Don't go that way!" She grabs my arm.Too late.The sound of the distant waterfall reaches my ears. Followed by the scent

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   127: Always and forever

    Kerris POV Yup. I knew it. I'd felt eyes but had refused acknowledge they belong to a werewolf passerby. I'd told myself that they were probably another creature of the woods. In truth, I didn't care. Or more accurately, knowing someone's might be watching had increased the thrill. But that feeling has gone now that the sëx̌ session is over. What's left is embarrassment. Someone had watched me getting fücķed by the Alpha King. I let my head drop on Zach's chest, hiding my face from him. 'It's my fault,' he sighs, smoothing my back. 'I should've been patient till we get home. But they're gone now. They ran away.' 'Do you know who it is?' I ask with my face pressed to his chest still. 'A forest guard. I assume. I'll find out. They're female.' I lift my head. It's less embarrassing knowing that our audience was the same sëx and not a male wolf. "Really? Did you see her face?" "Nope. Why? You want me to punish them for seeing our Queen's round... bubble büťt?"

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   126: Shameless desire

    Keris POV Two massive wolves race close behind me. No matter how fast I go, I don't outrun them. Their hearts and mine beat together. The two are my lover, my mate and my protector. Just as I am theirs. Or his. Both wolves are the Alpha King. It doesn't take long for us to lose the others. His brother's presence was the first to fade. Perhaps Zach told all of them to leave us alone. With my senses, I search for other passing wolves, determined to race another way and avoid them. This time is for mine and Zach's. Thankfully, the path is clear and empty. It's a night of celebration. The wolves who are normally out in the woods on moonless nights like these are the same ones enjoying themselves back at the castle. I don't slow down until I reach my favorite river. It's close to the mountains near the house where I lived this past month. The sight of the waterfall makes me realize how thirsty I am. As I shift to my human form, I feel Zach do the same but don't turn back to look at

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   125: The White Wolf

    Kerris POVThe bright light of the castle continues to fade as Zach and I sneak farther from its massive walls. A few warriors lurk around keeping watch. Zach says something to them through the mindlink. Then he places a finger across his lips, no doubt ordering them not to tell anyone we left the building. We are far from the massive walls of my new home when I look up at the sky for no reason. It's a new moon, so it's not like I can see anything up there except the bright grey clouds. Especially with my wolfless eyes. The Moon's soft light filters through the cloud, revealing the trees on our path. Squirrels and other woodland creatures scurrying about.Zach and I are walking so closely together that our steps are almost in sync with his large body brushing mine every now and then. We don't speak. And the silence is so peaceful and natural that it feels like we come out into the woods like this often. The only sound around us are the crackling of dry leaves under our feet, an owl

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   055: Respite and the reports

    Kerris POV For a split second after Zach gives me the horrible news, I consider falling on my knees in front of him. To beg him to buy me for the night, anyway. It's at the tip of my tongue to say I'll do whatever he asks if he'll just keep me from going to the Den like he has done the past week.

    Kerris POVI grip the paper tight with both hands as the horrifying words stare back at me. The Council's emblem sits proudly at the top left side of the Order, indicating its authenticity. "It's a fake," I mumble. “Please, let it be fake.”I run my thumb carelessly across the surface of the Counc

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   012: The visiting pain

    Kerris POV I don't feel right. The strangeness began after I waved goodbye to Zach and his Beta. My stomach feels like it is tied in knots. Like I'm afraid. Even though the moment has passed and Zach didn't ask any question about my birthmark. He did not recognize me. That would be impossible.
