She looks hurt before she turns away. “I just pray that Annalise is indeed lying.” She whispers. “I don’t want you hurt again.” I want to say more, but the boys are right there and I’m unable to bring myself to say anything, so I remain silent. I will have a talk with her when we are alone. “I won
I sigh heavily as I lean back on my hands and tilt my head back, staring at the ceiling. “Mom’s attitude, and the secrets she’s kept, secrets I know that have eaten up at her and I still need to talk to her about them… Annalise’s lie, Annette’s interference…. The Blood Born Triquetras, who are the
ZAIA. I look at the eight men who now crowd my office at the pack house; I don’t know what to say. Five of them are meant to be some of our most trusted, for them to simply allow Annette in like that… The door shuts after the last one and I place my chin on top of my clasped hands, my elbows resti
His words fill me with warmth. In a world where there is no care for our wolves, there are those who genuinely want to cherish the blessing it is to have a wolf. I tilt my head, a thought coming to my head. “Gaspard, we have issues with rogues… those who they say are men who have lost themselves to
HUGH.I look across at her. My head is bursting with incessant throbbing. I have drunk far too much, but even then; it was not enough to drown out the suffering within my mind.The turmoil of the past and present mix into one bubbling stew that is ready to explode.What exactly did I do for the worl
Maybe Adam’s brought someone back with him…I inch close to my room; the moans getting louder and sickening.I recognise that voice. I’ve heard it far too many times…Turn away Hugh, what you don’t see, you don’t know…It won’t hurt.Leave.But no, I have to know.The lamp is on, bathing the master
Her eyes widen as she stares at me, and I frown.“Annette gave me an ultimatum, accept her and her child, make her Luna, and she will never tell anyone what I did. I killed the future Alpha… that could have cost me life in prison or death. So, I accepted. I was already angry at your mother and wante
ZAIA. I stare at him trying to process everything he has just told me. My mind and emotions are wreaking havoc within me. How is this possible? How could Mom do this? How could she lie to me like this? Annette is Mom’s sister? I'm conflicted, but it’s clear he is not lying. There is so much
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’
