*suspenseful music plays*
SEBASTIAN.“Get my car ready. I’m going to head out.” I say through the phone to my driver, pausing when the news playing on the television catches my attention.“… outside the Stanton Hotel Building. The mass shooting has left nineteen confirmed dead on the scene with three in critical condition an
I’ve always hated this man to the very core. He may be her father, but he is as arrogant as Dad and always looks down on me.“My daughter is in that bed because of you!” he thunders as he crosses the room, “What do you want me to do, roll out the welcoming carpet!”“Because of me?” I ask coldly, gla
SEBASTIAN. An hour has passed, and she’s not awoken. Hugh is a jerk and what pissed me off is that he wants me to explain everything first, and I do, leaving only a little out. What I don’t mention is the fact that I contacted Zaia or anything to do with our run-in back when she had her promotion
I glance at Zaia. It isn’t so far-fetched… she is a little more in touch with her wolf side and beliefs… “What if it’s a misconception? I mean, I don’t think anyone deserves to be… purged. But what if I just need to show people that we need to embrace our wolves the way we once used to- the childre
ZAIA. My shoulder is aching, and my entire body feels like I have been run over, but seeing him sitting there makes me forget it all. I know I’m not ready to take him back, even if I want him… I need time. My heart still hurts, but at the same time, I’m terrified, terrified that something could
“Make sure the security around this place is tight, and anyone coming in this room, including the doctors, should be under the watch of one of your men,” he says before he glances at me. He wants to say something, but he changes his mind before he walks to the door and leaves. The door shuts behin
ZAIA. Two days have passed since the shooting and although Sebastian made it, he is still in critical condition according to the doctors. Luckily his body is fighting, and I know he’ll make it. He just needs the time to heal and let his body do the work. Our Pack doctor also said Sebastian’s heali
Jai is currently staying here too. He has been here ever since we left on the business trip. Dad didn’t question why he has remained and I am grateful for it. “Ah, that smells so good! What’s cooking?” I ask. “Fish and fries!” Zion says, waving his fork. “Sit down, Mommy! I saved you a seat!” Sia
We step into the lift, the silence stretching loud between us. I look over at her. Her lipstick is smudged, her lip cut, she has bruises and cuts all over her, and her curly hair tumbling in front of her face. Somehow, she looks regal… despite the pain she’s in, she’s holding up, the fire in her eye
~ ZION ~My fingers dip lower, brushing along her smooth pussy, drawing a soft, sexy moan from her lips. She swears breathlessly against my lips as she reaches down, freeing me from my boxers and pants.I can hear the faint sound of sirens in the distant but as reckless as it is, I don’t fucking car
I slam the brakes.We’re both launched forward and Zion’s arm flies out, catching me before I break my nose on the wheel.The SUV shoots past us and propels straight over the edge.It flips, hitting the rock face below, and erupts in a fireball that lights up the cliff side. The ground trembles slig
~ MILENA ~“Oh, you did not, you fucking assholes!” I snarl, rage tearing through me. The pain in my forearm barely registers as I wrench the wheel to the side, slamming our car into the one on the left. I time it perfectly. Their tyres catch the curb and the vehicle lurches violently.“Milena!” Zio
“Your dad gives me a reaction, and he’s a tad more gullible than you, so it’s fun to mess with him.” Her impish smile reminds me of Xander, and I shake my head.“I’m glad this isn’t real then. You and Xander would be the death of him.”“Yeah, we’ll keep the pretence going though. If the Arkan had an
It’s crazy how I actually would trust her around them, even if she is one of the Arkan. She has some compassion when it comes to kids… looking at her now as she talks to Kaia about something it’s almost hard to imagine she’s a killer. Almost.The image of her cold eyes as she raised a gun and pulled
~ ZION ~Milena. She has a way of keeping me on edge when nothing else or no one else has that effect on me; I don’t know what she’ll do next; it was one of the things I like about her, but right now I’m not enjoying it. Her sly smiles that tell me she’s up to something and the way she hugs Mom and
Kaia, on the other hand, is confident and bubbly. That’s the only way to describe the twenty-one-year-old redhead with the huge smile and bright blue eyes like Zion’s.His uncle is a few tables down, but occasionally I feel the prickling sensation at the back of my neck of someone watching me, and I
~ MILENA ~“Smell me?” I repeat, my cheeks involuntarily flush as I shove him back, only to meet hard fucking muscle.“Your arousal, to be precise.” He smirks, baring those teeth in a dangerous smile.Oh, hell no.I know what werewolves are capable of, but right now I don’t need to hear that. I don’
