I held onto the pole in front of me, shimmying my waist slowly even as I battled to get the fever under control.The timing couldn’t be any shittier. With the presence of the full moon came an overflow of eager male wolves, all of them stacked with cash and the desire to own one of the scantily-clad bodies working the stage tonight. One of those bodies was mine.“That’s right, Zoey,” one client in particular bellowed from his place in the crowd. “Work that body for me like a little slut.”He was a short man, his belly rounded with excessive alcohol and zero workout, and he was mostly bald, save for the sparse curls around his mouth. To put it simply, he wasn’t a pleasant man to look at, and from the look in his eyes, the knowledge of that wouldn’t stop him from paying his way between our legs.A sh

KAELMy entire life force cripples to a stop at the same time that my mate does. My heart is thrashing around in my chest at the sight of her weak form, her skin a very scary shade of pale under the unwavering moonlight.It takes all of the patience that I don't have to watch and wait as she battles against the vampire in front of her.I felt it the moment she took over, the moment she slipped past her own walls and dominated his mind, but nothing could've prepared me for the swell of pride in my chest as his head explodes, brain matter, blood, and bone bits slapping the already grimy walls and concrete floor.She slumps, but before her body touches the ground, I'm there. My arms sweep around her, wrapping delicately around her frame like I'm scared she'd break.Maybe I am. Maybe the wildness in my chest is courtesy of my own fear. A fear that is neither familiar nor faint, the thought in my head tears a violent growl from my throat.What if she dies?She'd better not. I'd uproot the

ELIRAThe walk back to the servants' quarters is heavy with tension, the kind that makes each step feel weighted.I cut a glance in Brie's direction, and find her focused on the road ahead. The look on her face is far too pointed to be natural, but I refrain from asking anything—mostly because I'm
ELIRA "You're taking this better than I expected," Brie says, casting a side glance at me.We're sitting together in a small corner of the pack's library, hidden by rows of shelves and then boxes we borrowed from the building's attic to make a tent—childish I know, but I can't say I'm not loving it
ELIRASarah is out of her chair before I can even finish feeling the anger that's making me want to bash someone's head. A particular someone, to be honest."I don't feel so good."Kael doesn't even spare a single glance in her direction, instead he watches me with a cocked brow, some cross-child b
ELIRA"Ouuu, you look so good in this," Brie coos, her face splitting on a huge grin as she admires me.Heat pulls at me, making my cheeks burn red. "You think?
