Chapter 8

Talia’s POV

“You don’t actually believe that, do you?”

Vermont’s lips curled in amusement as he watched the stunned look on my face.

“So you can actually get it up?” I asked quietly, a breath I didn’t realize I’d been holding slipping free.

“Are you relieved I can get my penis up?” He burst into loud laughter. “If I didn’t know better, I’d think you wanted me.”

He winked, then shut his eyes and stretched out on the couch like nothing had happened.

I let the silence sit between us for a moment before speaking again.

“Do you still want to talk about Lilith?” I asked softly.

His eyes flew open at her name.

“Why would I want to talk about her?” he snapped. “What business of it is yours?”

The anger was back in his voice, the same sharp edge it had when he barged in earlier, like he might lunge at me any second.

“I’m sorry,” I said quickly. “You were talking about her before, so I thought you might want...”

“Well, you thought bloody wrong,” he cut in. “Unless you have something be

  • Craving The Cruel Alpha   A month and four days.

    Talia’s POVThe drive was long. Painfully long.It felt like it would never end, like time had slowed just to torture me. My head throbbed against the seat as the road stretched on and on, my thoughts blurring together the longer we drove.Eventually, Vermont slowed down and turned onto a dirt road. Dust kicked up behind us as he kept driving for a few more minutes before finally pulling up in front of an isolated lake house. It looked old, like it had been standing there for a couple of decades, quietly decaying with time.Before I could fully process where we were, Vermont yanked me out of the car.My head pounded as he half-dragged me into the house, up the creaking stairs, and down a narrow hallway with only two doors. He shoved one open and forced me inside.The room was small. Bare. There was a single bed pushed against the wall and, beside it, an iron pole bolted firmly into the floor. A very long, heavy chain was attached to it.My stomach dropped.Vermont threw me to the floo

  • Craving The Cruel Alpha   Two options

    Talia's POVThe morning sunlight tickling my eyelids was what woke me up from sleep, and I groaned, turning around to bury my face further into the pillow. "I don't have all day, pumpkin," a voice drifted to my ears, jolting me halfway into consciousness."Go away," I groaned, barely registering anything, my mind still foggy from sleep. But midway into snuggling further into the sheets, I stiffened and shot up from the bed, my eyes flying open like I'd been electrified. My gaze, wide and shocked, took in Vermont leaning relaxed against a chair, a book in hand as he flipped through pages calmly.He looked up from the book, amusement dancing in his eyes, "Good, you're awake. I've been watching you sleep for the past hour since I got here. Do you know you talk in your sleep? You kept mumbling over and over about how you had to run," he chuckled, a lazy smile playing on his lips like he found me entertaining.Why was he acting like this was a normal morning? Like I hadn't just killed one

  • Craving The Cruel Alpha   Escape and rescue

    Talia's POVI swiped my hair away from my face, smearing blood through the tangled strands.I didn't give a damn, my feet pounding the pavement like they had a mind of their own as I fled. "I'm so fucking stupid," I muttered, over and over again as I resisted the urge to hit myself.What had I been thinking, taking down a soldier from another pack? Did I really think I could outrun the consequences? My lungs burned, my muscles screamed for mercy, but I kept pushing, adrenaline and panic fueling my every step.I ducked into the shadows behind a house, gulping air like it was water, and yanked my shirt over my head, using it to wipe the sticky blood from my hands before tossing it aside like a useless rag.People shot curious glances my way as I sprinted past, but no one looked terrified, no one pursued me. Either Vermont hadn't discovered the body yet, or he was playing it cool, holding off on putting out the kill order. I was betting on the former, killing a soldier was a death senten

  • Craving The Cruel Alpha   Lies, anger, and arousal.

    Vermont’s POV – Chapter 5My hands roamed down her body, desperate to feel all of her, all at once.I kissed along her neck until I found the pulse hammering beneath my tongue, begging to be claimed.My teeth scraped gently, and a burning sensation spread through my chest. I tried to ignore it, grazing her skin again until she let out a bloodcurdling scream and shoved me away with surprising force.I staggered backward, stunned. She pressed her palm to her neck, now flaming red, before she sank to the ground, shaking and convulsing, refusing to meet my eyes.I stared at her, confusion knotting in my gut until it finally hit me.She had a mate.My jaw locked. I crossed the space in two long strides, hauled her up like a sack of potatoes, and slammed her against the wall. Her head snapped back, and I twisted her neck just enough to expose her skin. Sure enough, there it was, the tiny crescent moon tattoo etched into her flesh. Proof.My hand tightened around her throat. Her lips pulled

  • Craving The Cruel Alpha   Mate.

    Talia's POV Voices drifted in through the fog of sleep, “I don’t know why the alpha brought her here,” a man said, his tone laced with anger. “She’s the fucking pack member of his sworn enemy.”Another voice chimed in, a woman, her words dripping with disdain. “You know the date is nearing. He’s been a mess lately. Maybe she poked through that weak spot of his.”“Yeah,” a third man muttered. “I bet she’s using him.”Using him? How could I use someone I didn’t even know? Why had he helped me? And what date were they talking about?My mind spun as the voices faded away, swallowed by silence. They were gone.I needed to get out of here. I couldn’t trust these people. And my baby...My breath hitched, and tears stung my eyes. My baby was gone. My baby. A sob choked out of me, and I buried my face in my hands, rocking back and forth, the pain so raw it felt like I was being torn apart.Dylan was going to pay. Dylan and every single one of them. They took my baby. They took everything. I d
