Kenny was already inside my apartment when I got home.

Not the penthouse. Mine. The West Village apartment he paid for but never spent a night in. The one he didn't have a key to.

Except apparently he did.

He was sitting on my sofa in the dark with his coat still on and his hands clasped in front of him and his eyes full amber, and the sight of him there, in my space, my real space, the only place that had ever felt like mine, made something cold move through my chest.

  • Eyes of the Alpha   EXPOSED

    Kenny was already inside my apartment when I got home.Not the penthouse. Mine. The West Village apartment he paid for but never spent a night in. The one he didn't have a key to.Except apparently he did.He was sitting on my sofa in the dark with his coat still on and his hands clasped in front of him and his eyes full amber, and the sight of him there, in my space, my real space, the only place that had ever felt like mine, made something cold move through my chest."How did you get in?" I said."I own the building," he said simply.I stood in the doorway. "I didn't know that.""There are things you don't know," he said. "We're finding that out about each other tonight."The air in the apartment was thick with his power. I could feel it pressing against my skin the way it did when he was fully fed, except this wasn't satisfaction. This was something harder. Something with edges.I closed the door behind me and didn't move further into the room."Say what you came to say," I said."

  • Eyes of the Alpha   URGENT

    Michael arrived in twelve minutes.I was still sitting at the same table when he walked through the door, and his eyes found me immediately, and something in his expression when he saw me made my chest tighten. Not the careful stillness I was used to. Something more urgent underneath it.He sat across from me where Dain had sat and looked at me like he was checking for damage."What did he say?" he asked."Everything you'd expect him to say," I said. "He was precise. He knew exactly where to push. "I looked at my hands. "He knew about the document."Michael's jaw tightened."He knew about you too," I said. "He said he'd observed you.""I know," Michael said quietly. "I felt it."I looked at him. "You felt him watching you?""Betas are sensitive to surveillance in ways alphas aren't," he said. "I've known he was in the city for three days." He paused. "I should have warned you sooner. I'm sorry."The apology landed simply and without performance, and I felt it the way I felt everything

  • Eyes of the Alpha   THE CRACK

    He found me on a Wednesday afternoon.Not at a supernatural event. Not through Kenny's world or Michael's quiet brownstone or any of the spaces I'd learned to navigate over the past eight months. He found me at a coffee shop two blocks from my apartment, where I went every Wednesday at three pm because I was a creature of habit, and apparently that was information available to people who wanted it.I was sitting at my usual table by the window with my usual order going cold beside me and my phone face down on the table when someone sat across from me without asking.I looked up.He was not what I expected.I don't know what I'd imagined. Something dramatic maybe. Something that announced itself. Kenny's power announced itself. You felt it before he entered a room. Michael's stillness was immediately distinctive. I'd built Dain in my imagination as something you'd recognize immediately as dangerous.He looked ordinary.Late thirties maybe. Dark hair. Pale in the way of someone who spent

  • Eyes of the Alpha   RECKONING

    I couldn't avoid him forever.I knew that walking back to my apartment from Michael's brownstone. I knew it, standing in my own shower, letting the hot water run until it went cold. Knew it, sitting on my sofa with my phone face up on the cushion beside me, watching Kenny's messages accumulate like evidence of something I'd already decided.Fifteen messages. Then sixteen. Then a call I let ring out.Then nothing.The silence after the calls stopped was worse than the messages. Kenny going quiet meant Kenny making decisions. And Kenny making decisions without information was dangerous in ways I was only beginning to fully understand.I texted him at noon.Coming over at two.His reply was immediate. I'll be here.No anger in those three words. Just certainty. The particular quality of a man who had decided to wait because he knew you were coming back. Because you always came back. Because that's what his asset did.I looked at myself in the mirror before I left. Really looked. The woman

  • Eyes of the Alpha   MORNING AFTER

    I woke up in Michael's bed.Not Kenny's penthouse. Not my own apartment. Michael's bed, in Michael's brownstone, with morning light coming through ordinary curtains and the smell of coffee already brewing somewhere in the apartment.I lay still for a moment and took inventory of how I felt.Different.Not better exactly. Not worse. Just different in the way you feel after something has shifted so fundamentally that the version of yourself from yesterday feels like someone you used to know.Michael was already up. I could hear him moving quietly in the kitchen. No urgency. No 4 am disappearance. Just an ordinary morning unfolding around me like something I'd forgotten was possible.I sat up and looked around his bedroom in the daylight. Books on every surface. A worn wooden desk with papers stacked neatly. A jacket hanging on the back of the door. Evidence of a real life lived quietly and without performance.I pulled on my clothes from yesterday and went to find him.He was at the smal

  • Eyes of the Alpha   REAL

    We stayed on the bench for a long time.His hand over mine. The city is moving around us. Kenny's messages were piling up in my bag unread and unanswered, and I couldn't make myself care about any of it. Not right now. Not with the document sitting in my chest and Michael's hand warm and steady and asking nothing.Eventually the cold got serious."Come on," Michael said quietly. He stood and pulled me up with him, and we walked out of the park without deciding where we were going. Just walking. His shoulder occasionally brushing mine. The city is ordinary and indifferent around us.We ended up outside his building four blocks away. A brownstone on a quiet street that looked nothing like Kenny's penthouse and everything like a place where a real person actually lived.He looked at me. "Do you want to come up?"I looked back at him and felt the weight of the question and everything underneath it."Yes," I said.His apartment was on the third floor. Small and warm and full of books and or

  • Eyes of the Alpha   EDGE

    Kenny knew something was wrong.Not about Michael. Not about the coffee shop or the park or the things that had been quietly rearranging themselves inside me for the past two weeks. Kenny didn't know any of that.But he knew the supernatural world was shifting, and when Kenny felt threatened, he did

  • Eyes of the Alpha   UNDERNEATH

    Kenny's pack met every Thursday.I'd been attending for six months. Not as a member; I was human, so that wasn't possible, but as Kenny's public face. His visibility anchor. The human woman whose presence at his side communicated something about his power that supernatural displays alone apparently

  • Eyes of the Alpha   STILL EYES

    I saw him again on a Tuesday.Not at a supernatural event. Not at one of Kenny's carefully orchestrated visibility performances. Just on a Tuesday afternoon in the West Village, three blocks from my apartment, standing outside a coffee shop with a cup in his hand, looking at nothing in particular.I

  • Eyes of the Alpha   MORNING

    I woke up alone.Kenny never stayed until morning. That was one of the first things I'd learned about him. He slept beside me until approximately four am and then he was gone, back to whatever the other side of his life looked like, the side that existed outside of me and the attention I generated f
