“I wasn’t expecting us to go public, I thought you wanted things to be in secret, just like me.” “I did, I do. Last night when you walked in you found me having just caught Ezra and Auntie Alora kissing. I thought it was a one time thing but they’ve been together for years, in secret. I can’t, I d
~ Knox ~ She’s recoiling from me, I can see the pain in her expression. My wolf is howling at me, thrashing at me internally to stop talking, to accept her, to take her as ours. But I can’t…how can I keep her safe, keep her away from the destruction that still follows me today. She doesn’t h
I am the best shooter in the pack…and most likely amongst the shifter community. Not every fight needs to have a wolf. But, yes, you are right, I’ve broken my promise to you. You entered an agreement of just sex, of no-strings-attached fun…and here I am trying to give you a rope to hang around yo
~Josie~ I felt like that 16 year old girl again. The one that had her entire life ahead of her. The vague hope of having a wolf appear when she reached 18, still alive like a bright candle flickering within my core, my very centre. The one that thought she knew so much, that believed even then s
“He doesn’t love me, he doesn’t want me.” “Oh my darling..” “You told him, why did you tell him?” My eyes look to him, why did he tell him. “Because…if he was deserving of you it wouldn’t have made a blind bit of difference.” He cups my face within his hands. “You scared him away.” I yell at
~Josie~ That feeling of complete forgetfulness when you open your eyes but your mind hasn’t clicked in yet…that feeling is absolute heaven. As I open my eyes, I find Dad sat next to me on the sofa, my legs on his lap as he flicks through the TV channels. It must be early morning, why were we he
“Have you been up all night?” “Yes and don’t change the subject. I have faith in him.” Then at least one of us has. The fact that he has already gone speaks volumes to me and I actually get it. I don’t think I would stay in a house where I had just dumped someone…I barely hung around long enou
~ Knox ~ This has to be one of the worst motels I have ever stayed in. I picked it because it was off the beaten track and near woods…which if I couldn’t keep my wolf at bay meant I had somewhere for him to escape into. I was very much in human territory right now. As it stands, I’ve been able t
“Oh right, yes Kit and I are both the Alphas of the Clear Waters pack.” I hadn’t heard of this… “I didn’t know…” “Really? I thought it was common knowledge now, where have you been?” She chuckles out before pausing at my frown. “In a cave.” I deadpan. “I’m sorry Runa, I didn’t think…of course.
~ Runa ~ I was losing control, losing focus. Even as I wake up in Jaxon’s bed, his scent surrounding me…I can feel my resolve weakening. I should have gone through with it last night, I would be back at the Silver River pack righting my Father’s past wrongs. I should have gone through with it,
~ Jaxon ~ It is clear she has an aversion to touch, which isn’t wholly surprising given her experienced with the rogues. But I was struggling to rein my wolf in, he wanted to touch her…to feel her soft skin under touch, to kiss her….to claim her. My biggest fear was not being able to keep him
His eyes are watching me, his glare darting between my eyes and my now clear neck. It would take him a mere second to claim me, to take me as his. To sink his teeth into me. I freeze, panic coursing through me as I hold my breath…it would only take a second. But he isn’t that kind of man, I know
~ Runa ~ “Alpha, the evening report.” A male with ash blonde hair that is turning grey by the temples enters into the dining room, a file within his hold as he hands it over to Hector. “Beta Riley, I think my son can take the report tonight.” Hector nods out before Jaxon shifts in the chair next
“Sure there is, you don’t just end up in a rogue camp without a back story. How long were you there?” Jaxon’s Mum pours herself another glass of wine, her eyes watching me like a hawk. “You talk as if it were a holiday park.” I scoff out slightly. “Enlighten me then…” Her voice rings out, a co
~ Runa ~ The aura radiating off the man before me was palpable, he was an intense individual. His aura dark, powerful. If I thought Alpha Darnell and the bitch, Medea, were intense…they were a walk in the park compared to my next target. His aura, when I was strangling his brother, threaten
…. “I should have informed you the moment I knew she was awake, this is my fault.” Jace stands by the bedroom door, Josie next to him as she once again has used her healing abilities on my mate. “She had been captured by a rogue camp, beaten for I don’t know how long…she was just scared. If it’s
~ Jaxon ~ “Jace!” Cleo’s desperate cry wakes me from the pathetic sleep I finally allowed my body to cave into. I should have known I wouldn’t be able to rest. She clutches at her chest, her frantic cry waking the entire household, most of us having fallen asleep downstairs whilst taking it i
