“Uhm.. I..” Anaya's fingers clenched on her lap. Why couldn't she just say Silvercrest Pack.

Her mouth opened, closed. The words were there somewhere, buried under years of shame, but they wouldn't come. She could feel everyone watching her, even Kaelen.

It was Malcolm who broke the silence.

"She's Kaelen's friend," he said quickly. A little too quickly. He looked at Anaya and gave her a small, encouraging nod, like _it's okay, I got you._

Anaya felt a rush of gratitude so strong her eyes

    “Uhm.. I..” Anaya's fingers clenched on her lap. Why couldn't she just say Silvercrest Pack. Her mouth opened, closed. The words were there somewhere, buried under years of shame, but they wouldn't come. She could feel everyone watching her, even Kaelen. It was Malcolm who broke the silence. "She's Kaelen's friend," he said quickly. A little too quickly. He looked at Anaya and gave her a small, encouraging nod, like _it's okay, I got you._ Anaya felt a rush of gratitude so strong her eyes stung. She looked owards Kaelen and swallowed. Friend? She wasn't Kaelen's friend. She was barely his partner. But Malcolm didn't know that. He was just trying to help and that didn't come often. Reina looked at Malcolm, then back at Anaya. Something flickered in her eyes.. understanding, maybe, or pity. "Oh," Reina said, and she shook her head a little, as if trying to understand something. "Okay.” She turned away, reached for the bread basket in the middle of the long table, and pulled t

  • Fatty for the Playboy Alpha    Was his mother dead?

    It was Kaelen but he wasn't alone.Behind him was a man who looked like an older, broader version of Marcus.. same hard jaw, same sharp eyes, but with grey at his temples and a much easier smile. And beside Davon was a girl, about Anaya's age. Her breath caught. The girl was beautiful. Tall and slender, with dark hair that fell in perfect waves past her shoulders. Her dress was simple but expensive.. deep green silk that hugged her figure in all the right places. She walked like Kaelen did — like she owned the ground.Anaya looked down at herself. Her plain gray t-shirt and jeans. The curves she'd never been able to hide, no matter how many layers she wore.She suddenly felt small and wrong.Kaelen's eyes swept the room. He looked at his father, at Malcolm, and then right over Anaya like she was furniture. No nod. No hello. She wasn't expecting one.. but still. The man, however, did see her. His gaze landed on her and stayed. He gave her a small, polite smile, but his eyes moved sl

    The forest blurred past him in streaks of green and brown. Kaelen ran. Not the controlled, measured pace of an Alpha on patrol, but something wild. The trees whipped past, branches clawing at his fur, and he welcomed the sting and the burn in his muscles. "Slow down." Kyle's voice was a rumble in his skull. His wolf. The other half of him. "You're going to tear something." Kaelen didn't answer. He could feel her. Even now, even miles away, the bond pulsed in his chest like a second heartbeat. He could feel her confusion. Her hurt. The way her shoulders had tensed when he'd said those words. "You're a fool," Kyle said. "Shut up." "A coward." "I said shut up!" Kyle growled, low and frustrated, but said nothing more. Kaelen pushed through a thicket, branches snapping against his ribs, and burst into a clearing. The moon hung overhead, pale and indifferent, casting silver light across the grass. He suddenly shifted and he hit the ground on two legs, his chest heaving, his bre

  • Fatty for the Playboy Alpha    Chapter 13: Something came up

    Kaelen could feel his father's eyes on him as he tracked Anaya's face slowly. It was involuntary — the way his gaze moved over her features, cataloguing every detail like he was memorizing her. He took in the faint crease between her brows, the uncertainty in her eyes, the way a strand of hair had fallen across her cheek. Then his eyes dropped to her lips before he could stop them. He remembered the way they'd felt against his. Soft, warm. He knew it was her first cause it was hesitant at first, unskilled. He remembered the way she'd gasped against his mouth, the way her fingers had curled into his jacket like she was afraid he'd disappear. He remembered walking away after saying that cold sentence. The words tasted like ash in his mouth now. He'd meant them. He'd had to. "Kaelen." His father's voice cut through the silence. Kaelen blinked, dragged back to the present, and realized he'd been staring. Kaelen's jaw tightened. He looked at his father — at the cold, unreadable exp

  • Fatty for the Playboy Alpha    Chapter 12: Aren't you going to tell her?

    The car door opened before Anaya could reach for the handle. Warm air rushed in, carrying the smell of freshly cut grass and something faintly smoky from the chimneys. She stepped out carefully, adjusting the strap of her bag over her shoulder, and immediately felt the mansion watching her. It was even more intimidating from this close. Kaelen's father stood on the top step, his posture rigid, his winter-frost eyes fixed on the vehicle. He hadn't moved since they'd pulled up. Hadn't smiled. Hadn't done anything except wait. Anaya's palms were slick against her bag strap. She wiped them on her jeans, but they were already damp again. Kaelen climbed out first, his movements controlled. He didn't look back at her. Anaya forced herself to move, her legs trembling as she stepped onto the gravel. The crunch of stones under her shoes sounded too loud in the silence. Kaelen's father watched her approach. His expression was unreadable, but as she drew closer, something shifted in his e

  • Fatty for the Playboy Alpha    Chapter 11: Where are we going?

    Anaya swallowed as her eyes raked over Kaelen's bare chest. She forced herself to look away but her eyes kept drifting back, tracing the line of his collarbone, the way water still clung to his skin. His shoulders were broad, his chest defined, his abs.. She scolded herself internally. How stupid must she look appraising his body like art? She stared at the floor, at her feet, at anything that wasn't the expanse of bare skin in front of her. Her fingers tightened around the strap of her bag. "Uh.. Oren.. He brought me here. I'm your partner." Kaelen didn't answer right away, and the silence stretched long enough that Anaya risked a glance up. He was watching her with that same flat, assessing look he'd given her in the hallway. The one that had come right before he'd called her incompetent in front of half the school. Her stomach dropped in anticipation of it happening again. She pressed her lips together and forced herself to stand still. "I know that," he said finally. H
