Serena's POV

I couldn't sit still after what happened in the living room. The tension between Ryker and Alec had been so thick I could almost taste it. Something was wrong, but neither of them would tell me what.

But then the two of them lie that there’s nothing. And Ryker just brushed it off like I’m not worthy of his time and explanation.

I told myself I didn't care. This was what I wanted, wasn't it? For him to leave me alone? For there to be distance between us?

But I kept checking the clock on the wall. Seven o'clock became eight, then nine, then ten. I found myself walking to the window every few minutes, looking out at the driveway for his car.

I saw Ryker driving out earlier and now I couldn’t help but anticipate for his return.

"This is stupid," I muttered to myself. "Why do I care where he is?"

But I did care, and I hated myself for it.

I tried to distract myself by watching TV, but I couldn't focus on anything. I tried reading, but the words just blurred together on the

  • Curse of the Alpha demon   Go back to your mistress.

    Ryker's POV I woke up feeling different. My head was pounding from the alcohol, but there was something else, a warmth, a scent that lingered in my room like a sweet memory.Serena had been here. Her scent was everywhere - on my pillow, on the sheets, even on my clothes. I closed my eyes and breathed it in, trying to remember. Flashes came back to me. Her hands on my shirt, unbuttoning it. Her face looking down at me with worry. Me holding onto her wrist, begging her not to leave.I had slept better than I had in months. Years, maybe. And it was because of her.I checked the time and was shocked to see it was noon. I never slept this late. Never.I made my way downstairs, still wearing yesterday's clothes, expecting to find Serena but i saw Alec. "You’re finally awake."Alec sitting at the dining table with a cup of coffee and a newspaper. His expression was anything but friendly."Where's Serena?" I asked."Still sleeping. Unlike some people, she actually needs rest after dealing w

  • Curse of the Alpha demon   Anger

    Serena's POVI woke up to the sound of Ryker's voice, low and troubled. My neck was killing me from sleeping in that awkward position, but I stayed still and listened."Can't lose it," he was mumbling, his brow furrowed even in sleep. "Can't lose my pack... everything I built..."His hand was still wrapped around my wrist, but looser now. He was having some kind of nightmare, his body tense with whatever he was dreaming about.Without thinking, I reached over with my free hand and touched his arm gently. "Shh," I whispered. "It's okay."He went quiet almost immediately, his face relaxing as if my touch had chased away whatever demons were haunting his sleep.I stared down at him, wondering what could make someone so powerful look so scared, even in his dreams.My eyes drifted to his shirt again. To that lipstick stain that was still there, mocking me. The anger came rushing back, hot and fierce and completely unwelcome.I carefully pulled my wrist free from his grip and stood up. He s

  • Curse of the Alpha demon   Drunk

    Ryker's POVI slammed my bedroom door shut and leaned against it, my chest heaving like I'd just run a marathon. Alec's words kept playing in my head like a broken record. *Do you really think she'll accept you when she finds out what you did to her father?*Of course she wouldn’t. I walked to my window and stared out at the woods beyond. The truth was eating me alive. Deep down, I knew Alec was right. Serena would never forgive me. How could she? I had killed her father. Even though I couldn’t remember who exactly her father is. I couldn't stay in this room. I couldn't think about this anymore.—-Twenty minutes later, I was sitting in a bar downtown. The place was dark and loud, exactly what I needed. I ordered whiskey and kept ordering until the bartender stopped asking what I wanted and just kept refilling my glass.The alcohol burned going down, but it wasn't enough to burn away Alec's words. Or the look on Serena's face when she'd brought me that sandwich. "Hey there, hands

  • Curse of the Alpha demon   I don’t care.

    Ryker's POV"You know," Alec said, his voice deceptively casual, "I've been wondering something." He leaned back against the couch, but his posture was anything but relaxed. "Do you really think Serena will accept you when she finds out what you did to her father?"The words hit me like a physical blow. My entire body went rigid, every muscle coiling tight as a spring."That's right," Alec continued, his lips curving into a cold smile that looked wrong on his usually warm face. "Did you really think I wouldn't figure it out?"I kept my expression carefully blank, but inside, my wolf was snarling with rage and something that felt dangerously close to panic. "I don't know what you're talking about." I forced the words out. "Don't you?" He tilted his head, studying me like I was a particularly interesting specimen. "Serena's father." His smile widened. "The one you hunted down and killed."My hands clenched into fists at my sides. "Careful, Alec. You're walking into dangerous territory.

  • Curse of the Alpha demon   Stay away from my mate.

    Ryker's POVI forced myself to take a deep breath, pushing down the rage that threatened to consume me. Losing control now would only make things worse—and I needed to understand exactly what game was being played here.I cleared my throat deliberately, the sound cutting through their laughter like a blade.Both of them turned toward me, their intimate bubble bursting in an instant. Serena's eyes widened, a flush creeping up her neck that had nothing to do with Alec's attention. Alec, on the other hand, had the audacity to smile at me—that easy, brotherly smile he'd worn since we were children.He nodded at me, his expression shifting to one of concern. It was our silent language, developed over years of being brothers. He was asking if I was alright, if I needed anything.I nodded back curtly, telling him I was fine. But fine was the last thing I felt.Without breaking eye contact with Alec, I strode across the room to where Serena sat frozen on the couch. Her scent hit me immediate
