LOGIN“I fled my engagement party and found him on a basketball court at midnight.” I had three months of freedom before I was married off in a business arrangement like it was nothing more than a possession. My escape was Crescent Bay University, a last ditch effort at taking control of my life before it got snatched from me. I wasn’t prepared for a 6’4, amber eyed basketball captain, who was known to be closed off. But if it’s true that he doesn’t do relationships and he has no interes in women, why can’t he take his eyes off me? When his eyes met mine, something electric sparked between us. Something dangerous. Something neither of us could walk away from. Then his eyes flashed gold, and I realized my temporary escape had led me somewhere far more dangerous than I’d ever imagined. He has secrets that could destroy me. I have power I never knew existed. And the men hunting us will burn the world down before they let us be together. Some bonds can’t be broken. Some loves are worth dying—or killing—for
View MoreXAVIERLooking at her small frame laying in bed, I sighed deeply. I had spent the entire day away and I didn't know what form of hardships she had endured during the day, how she had been able to get around, if she had nightmares again or if her father or mine had come to see her. It wasn't my fault. Very early this morning, my father had sent me a mindlink, saying that he and Gabriel were in a meeting and that they needed me there. At first, I thought it was a trap because they had already had many meetings and all of a sudden, they wanted me there for this particular one? I didn't say anything, sliding out quietly to meet them. The same way, I slid into bed and carried her to rest on my chest. My little strong baby. “I'm so sorry I wasn't there for you today. I wish there was something I could have done about it. I hope you didn't suffer.”The entire meeting has been about their tactics of advancing to Silas’ territory to confront his father and possibly bring him back as a p
MIAThe whole thing was disorienting me..It didn't make any sense at all. According to Xavier, only wolves could be in heat. Now, not only was I not a wolf or even a mix breed of a wolf and witch, but it also meant that there was something wrong with the bond. Even if I were a wolf, the bond should have been completed when Xavier and I got intimate and he had marked me. That should have made things work. But it didn't. Even though I knew Xavier was trying not to act like it bothered him, I knew it did. Last night, I slept off again after we had sex, and for the meantime, it seemed to make things better but when I woke up, I saw him at the window staring out. He looked so lost in thought that I could even call his attention because I knew he was lost in thought..As if things weren't already messy. There was nothing I could do except feel like the cause of this whole problem.By the time I woke up this morning, he was nowhere to be found. Somehow, it made my heart sink because
CHAPTER 79: UncertaintyXAVIERThe panic hit me mid-run. Like someone had reached into my chest and squeezed.Mate. Pain. Mate needs us.Kane’s howl tore through my head. I’d stumbled, nearly crashing into Falcon. The pack had scattered around me, confused, as I shifted without warning.I’d run. Faster than I’d ever run in my life.But it hadn’t been fast enough.By the time I’d gotten dressed, grabbed my keys, made it back—my father was already there.Already helping her.Now I sat on the edge of the bed, watching Mia sleep. She’d been out for hours. The fever had broken, but her skin was still warm to the touch.My father stood in the doorway. He’d stayed. Like he knew I’d need someone to explain what the fuck had just happened.“She went into heat,” he said quietly. “Full heat. Not just elevated temperature. The desperation, the need—all of it.”I dragged a hand through my hair. “That’s not possible.”“And yet.” He gestured to Mia’s sleeping form.“Humans don’t go into heat.” I kep
MIAI blinked, to make sure I wasn't seeing something else because of the pain. I remembered how I was dressed and should have been embarrassed or even scrambled to cover myself. But I couldn’t move. I could barely think past the fire in my blood.“Mia.” His voice was sharp. He crossed the room in fast strides and came up to the bed. He pressed the back of his hand to my forehead. “Christ. You’re burning up.”“Xavier—” I managed.“He’s still running. I heard his phone ringing and thought you might need help.” His eyes were scanning me. “How long have you been like this?”“I don’t—maybe an hour—”“You’re in heat.”The words didn’t make sense. “That’s not—I’m not—”“I know.” His expression was grim. “But you are and if we don’t get it under control, it’s going to get worse.”He pulled out his phone. I heard him speaking in the background but I couldn't make out the words. He sounded worried.“Bring suppressants. The ones we keep for unmated females. And ice. Lots of ice.”He hung up the
