“No, I have no mate.” For once, the truth. “I see.” “No you don’t actually…the father is a human.” A moment is shared between us where he is considering me, and I him. He seems to be contemplating something, his eyes pulling away first as he exhales loudly, casting his eyes back over the patro
~ Jace ~ I’m sitting on the edge of the bed watching Callie put make up on in front of my mirror. She’s not spoken to me all day, not since Josie healed her arm and willingly informed her of her special abilities. She asked to go to the hospital, to have her arm checked out even though Josie k
“You will command them to come here.” “I’ll do jackshit until you explain your reasons?” “They are hiding things from us, something that has a direct impact on our security” “Jaxon you can’t go around making such claims without proof.” I pipe up, feeling protective of the Arancea’s. “Oh, I h
~ Cleo ~ I’m pounced on as soon as I exit my car. Mum gently guiding me out of the vehicle where she then covers my eyes to stop me from seeing anything. “Mum…” I chuckle out at her behaviour. “What’s going on?” “We have a surprise for you…no peeking okay?” “Okay.” She guides me into th
“If that is what is worrying you, then don’t let it.” “I didn’t know that.” “It’s not common knowledge, he doesn’t like to talk about it. Not because he is ashamed of it, he just doesn’t think it stops him being any less of the strong alpha that he is. And he’s right, it doesn’t.” Dad was righ
~ Jace ~ It was the calm before the storm. Jaxon had spent the day with a fucking smug smirk upon his face, something I wanted to beat right out of him. To say he was pissing me off was an understatement. By the time I had finished with training and pack duties it was already almost early evening
“You are early.” Callie sighs out, her shoulders instantly sagging, any sign of the confident entrepreneur business woman disappearing at her mother’s words. I didn’t even recognise this Callie in front of me. My eyes move to Mum’s who is also picking up on the awkwardness. “Callie has been s
~ Cleo ~ I’ve made this journey hundreds of times in my lifetime. I’ve passed the Dark Phantom main gate hundreds of time…so why when the guards stop us do I suddenly feel panic at the way their eyes look at me. They know, they must know. They all know, this was a trap. “Evening Alpha, Lu
“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
