Kerris POV

I forget all about my worries about Zach. What could be the problem now?

The Yellow Corn Grill is a local restaurant just outside the Moon Shadow. Why's dad asking to meet there instead of coming here or to the house I now live?

"Dad..."

My heart starts to thump. When will all the worries end? I thought I was past the point of trouble by now, especially after catching the male who poisoned me. I steal a glance at Caleb while still holding the phone to my ear. He looks away.

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   124: His forever Queen

    Kerris POVThe only difference between the Alpha King's mating ceremony and all the ones I've been to is the fact that I'm the center of attention. And the entire kingdom seem to be here in the castle tonight. Also, the hall is so elaborately decorated. It's hard to believe I'm part of the reason for the crowd and the celebration. When I glance dad's way, he's surrounded by well wishers, and I can tell he feels the same way. The reading of our vows, the rites and all the prayers are the same as all the mating ceremonies I've ever witnessed. Yet it feels like it's my first time coming across the words. The ceremony itself doesn't last up to a half hour. After that, the high priest blesses my crown and hands it to the Alpha King, who then places it on my head. The crowd's roar and howls are like nothing I've ever heard. Powerful males whom I've only seen on TV come to bow before me, touching their foreheads to my hand as custom requires. These are werewolves from the highest social

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   123: Curious Alphas

    Zach POVI spend the rest of the time the same way I've spent the last two days. Dealing with the mess Tyrel made. All the members of the Alpha Council and the Elders of the West Coast remain in my castle. One thing the latter and I have in common at the moment is their desire for their King to be mated immediately. The Alpha council has a 'more pressing matter' to resolve.We're now assembled in the large meeting parlour of the castle, and I can't help but smile inwardly when I think of all the information I've gathered this past two days. Okay maybe I'm smiling because of the female in my bedroom upstairs.The whispers of all the werewolves fill the expansive room as they argue with themselves about the events of the last few days. As far they're concerned, Black Rock and the River Howl pack need new Alphas immediately. Alpha Lee and Brody, the former leaders of these packs, have been convicted of treason. It turns out that Tyrel was plotting with them to dethrone me. I recall t

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   122: Alpha King's everlasting crush

    Zach POVI feel her pulse quicken at my words. Her heart thumps louder as a mild scent of fear rises around her. My lips halt on the smooth flesh of her hand. It's the only spot I should be kissing her for now. Until she shifts. So that things don't get out of hand.My own heart speeds up at her reaction. I grow scared that she doesn't want to be mated. Please, Fate, don't make me insist. I want her to want me, too. Lifting my gaze to hers, I ask, "What's wrong? Surely, you know a mating ceremony will happen sooner or later." "Yeah... I... guess so. But Luna Queen?" "We're a couple. I'm Alpha King, remember?" "It's just... it feels real now, and you didn't even... propose. Also, tonight? I thought you said I need bed rest?" "The sooner the better. Our wedding is hours from now," I smooth her skin with my thumb, hoping it calms her. Actually, I need her to feel rather than think at the moment. "The ceremony is a few hours before your first shift. You'll be well rested by then. A

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   121: Her safe place 2

    Kerris POV"You're opening his eyes to see that he, Zach Stone, is a miracle. We're a miracle. Not a curse. You and me? We are alike." He picks up the cup again, fills it with water and brings it to me. The bed dips with his weight when he sits on it. His natural masculine scent fills my senses, mingled with the smell of freshwater and soap. I want to be in his arms so much. To feel his protective strength around me. As I take the glass, memories of the past week returns, and I recall how he has been keeping his distance. Then I recall going to his office unannounced to confront him. And with that, the episode with Ty comes back in a flash. The cup is between my lips as I pause. "What's wrong?" His asks tenderly. "My dad. Is he alright?" "Of course. He has been here a few times to check on you. He's staying in the south wing for now until you shift." After taking large gulps of the water, I hand him the cup and wipe my mouth with the back of my hand. "More?" He asks. "Yes."

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   120: Her safe place

    Kerris POVI don't see the bulge below his waist until he moves one hand to cover it, casually shifting on the seat.Can he tell that I was dreaming about him? I'm embarrassed and have to look away for a moment. Then I notice the hypnotic masculine scent in the room. It's not a product of the dream but all around. I truly am not in the house near the Meadows. As familiar as this chamber feels, I know it's my first time in here. "Where am I?" I ask, sitting up. "In my house," comes his slightly hoarse reply. "The big one. The castle. How are you feeling?" The question reminds my body of its cravings as my stomach growls softly."Hungry. Thirsty." My throat feels dry. He rises awkwardly, the hand falling away from his crotch to reveal the ërèction. Is it possible he saw the images in my mind? Or he's merely thinking about the same thing I was dreaming about? "Macy is bringing you something to eat," he murmurs. "I'll get you a glass of water first." His wet hair gleams under the s

  • Claimed by the Alpha Beast   119: Daytime howling

    Tyrel (Third-person POV) Both wolves move like lightning. One minute they are yards away in the distance. The next, their shadows are upon the White one and Tyrel like a tree shade.The latter's teeth has barely touched Kerris' neck when something hit him like a giant brick, sending him to his knees. The pain from the blow blurs Ty's vision. For a few long moments, all he can see is stars in murky darkness. Kerris must have been hit, too. No doubt, by mistake. When Ty blinks to clear his sight, he sees her falling, only to be caught in Ares' arms. Meanwhile the creature stands over him, about to launch another attack. He drags himself away on all fours while trying to force Kaelan out, but his wolf seems unwilling to emerge. Or maybe the crushing pain is making it hard to focus so he can shift. The monster towers behind him and is about to pin him with thick metal claws. But Ty rolls away in a swift move and finally, inhaling deeply, Kaelan, his wolf comes out. He rises, lifting

  • 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.
