Jai is the second son of Leander and Sara, who are featured in The Romerian Alphas Mate. When Jai meets Melinda, he must fight to prove he is everything she needs. Melinda has never known kindness from anyone other than her mother and baby sister. Born to a violent and abusive man who kidnapped her mother when she was but fifteen years old, Melinda knows nothing but pain and suffering. After finding the courage to free herself, her mother and her baby sister from a monster, is Melinda really free? Jai is everything Melinda's father is not, and with the manifestation of powers she didn't realise she possessed, will Melinda be able to take down the man who has haunted her dreams since babyhood? With Jai by her side, Melinda finds the strength to stand up to those who shun her, but will she escape a madman a second time? Or will Jai lose the mate he cannot live without? PLEASE BEAR IN MIND THAT THIS BOOK IS WRITTEN IN BRITISH ENGLISH, AND SOME WORDS, PHRASES, AND SAYINGS MAY DIFFER FROM OTHER FORMS OF ENGLISH, SUCH AS AMERICAN.

View More“Stupid fucking whore!” Mike yells while kicking my mother for the tenth time. “I’m gonna kill you!”
“Dad!” I scream while grabbing his arm. “Please, don’t,”
Mike pushes me away, and I land on the floor with a thud. Mike is a huge man, tall and built. His dark eyes are almost black, showing the evil within, and he’s so damn ugly; I swear, he was hit with the ugly stick; one too many times.
I hate the man who fathered me with every fibre of my being. If it weren’t for my need to stay and protect my mum and sister, I would have left long ago.
I have to wonder how Mike can so easily fool those around him while torturing his family on a daily basis.
My eyes meet my baby sister as she peaks out from her hiding place behind the sofa.
I shake my head when she moves to run to Mum. I cannot let anything happen to Jessie; Mum would be heartbroken. Mike wouldn’t think twice about killing my three-year-old sister.
‘Jessie, don’t move!’ I yell through our mind link.
‘But Mummy,’
‘I know, I’m going to save her, I promise. Just stay where you are, Jessie.’
She nods and hurries back out of Mike’s line of vision.
I drag myself to my feet and rush at Mike again. “Stop it; you’re going to kill her!”
His eyes widen as he looks at me, but at least he’s no longer hurting Mum. She’s not moving, and I’m scared she won’t make it out alive this time.
My father has so beaten down my mother that her wolf is weak. She’s too weak to shift, and she doesn’t heal as other wolves do, which is why I’m so scared for her.
With a heaving chest, Mike looks down at Mum’s battered form. He yanks his arm out of my grip and again pushes me away.
“Clean up this fucking mess, mutt,”
I clench my teeth. It always angers me when Mike calls me such names. But I dared not answer back; Mike would rip my voice box out so I could never speak again. No joke.
“I’ll be back later. Do not call for help, and don’t let anyone in, or next; I’ll rip that little cunt apart.”
He’s talking about Jessie, which makes my stomach turn. Goddess, he’s so vile to all of us, but Mum and Jessie get it the worst. The worst thing is that I can do nothing to help them when Mike hurts them, and I hate myself for it; Goddess knows I do.
“What about Alpha? He said we all had to be in his office asap.”
“I’ll deal with Lorcan. You keep that fucking mongrel,” He’s referring to Jessie again. “Hidden, and I’ll figure out what to tell Lorcan about your mother.”
With that, Mike walks out of the house.
Jessie rushes toward me, and I wrap her up in my arms as she cries. No child should ever see their mother being abused like Jessie and I have. It’s the worst kind of torture for any kid to have to endure. The visions and memories never fade, nor do the nightmares. All I want is to keep my mother and sister safe. I want to get them away from Mike because they deserve a life without fear and pain.
“Why is Mummy not healing?”
“I don’t know, Jessie.”
I do know why Mum doesn’t heal as she should. I put it down to her weak wolf and the beatings and torture she’s endured for so many years. But I know it takes ten times longer for Mum to heal than regular wolves. I wonder if she’s been beaten down so much by Mike that her body is finally giving up.
It hurts to think, but I don’t know what else to think. My poor mother tries so hard to shield her children from Mike, but she fails every time. Mike gets off on Mum’s begging for him not to hurt Jessie and me. She takes everything he does to her to keep him away from us.
However, there have been times when Mike has tied Mum to a chair and forced her to watch as he attacked me. Goddess, my mother would beg and sob so hard that it would make her ill.
I love my mother, and I would do anything for her, anything to protect her. If my mother taught me anything, it was to stand up for those you love, even if she never said the words.
I haven’t been able to do much all these years, but I can now.
I sit Jessie on the floor beside me before checking on Mum. She’s battered beyond recognition, and Jessie is right; she’s not healing, not at all. As I said, Mum heals slowly, but this is not normal!
This is bad, really bad.
I made a promise to my sister that I’d never let this happen again after the last time. But this time, it’s much worse than it’s ever been. Mike did this because Jessie got out of the house, and I couldn’t catch her before she ran into Alpha Lorcan.
Our Alpha and Luna knew about Jessie, but she’s never been near them. Luna always welcomes new cubs to the pack, and I don’t know how Mike got away with hiding Jessie for as long as he did.
Alpha Lorcan is a busy man, and he’s not one for going house to house. So I guess it was easy to keep Jessie away from the Alpha for as long as Mike did.
It’s Luna Gianna that always surprised me. But then, I can’t blame her for not noticing when she has so many kids of her own to deal with.
Mum was too scared of Lorcan finding out where Jessie came from, meaning her birth father, to say anything to anyone. Mum has never told me who that man is, but I got the feeling Lorcan realised when he held Jessie.
I don’t know how that could be, but I saw how Lorcan’s face changed from smiling to angry. I heard the crack of his jaw as he clenched it.
Mike's eyes widened when I told him that Alpha Lorcan wanted to see him and Mum in his office. I could see that he was both afraid and angry.
Why didn’t Mike go to Lorcan’s office and make up another lie?
It’s what he’s good at; after all, lying, I mean.
But no, he came home and attacked my mum in the worst way imaginable. For some reason, Mike believed Mum had somehow gotten to the Alpha and made lies up about him. Mike is insane to think that when he doesn’t let her leave the house!
Now she’s lying on the floor, a broken mess. I don’t know if she’ll ever come back from this, even if she does survive. Mike has caused so much damage to my beautiful mother, and I know I have to do everything I can to help her.
I’m scared to touch her; in case I cause her even more damage. I need to call someone, but I know it can’t be anyone from the pack; I can’t risk Mike finding out.
But who else am I meant to call?
I don’t know anyone outside this pack, so I’m pretty much fucked! Mum needs help, we can’t stay here, and I can’t tell Lorcan because I’ll be in shit for keeping this all from him.
No, there’s only one thing I can do – get Mum away from Silver Paw. I’m scared, of course, I am, that Mike will find out what I’m planning. But we can’t stay here any longer; Mum will die if we do.
Drew asked me to help Violet today, and I was happy to do so. I like Violet; she's a sweet girl and incredibly innocent. Drew and Jai had a meeting, and I wasn't needed. Jai apologised, but there was no need. I understand that Jai will have meetings and things to do that don't involve me sometimes; it comes with being a Beta. I kissed him and smiled before walking away.I took Violet's size in clothes and sent someone to go shopping for everything she'd need. Jai wants me to stay within the bounds in case Mike shows up. I agree with him because I'm not stupid, and I don't want to face that man unawares. I don't want him catching me out the way he did at Greenrock.Violet has today off work. Drew told her to settle in and then start her new position tomorrow. The girl couldn't stop banging on about how great Drew was for half an hour! He gave her a house, money, and the position of head housekeeper. I couldn't help but smile at her and feel proud of Drew. He's already an incredible Alp
An hour later, after breakfast, I fill Drew in on what Melinda learned from Sally. Melinda isn't with me; she's helping Viola sort stuff at her new home. Actually, Drew requested Melinda's help as Violet was struggling to find anybody who cared.It angered me when Drew told me how the pack treats Violet. That poor girl doesn't deserve to be so mistreated. I wanted to confront the pack, but Drew informed me he'd allowed Dane to handle it. Dane had been ordered to let all pack members know death would come for them should they disrespect Violet again.“This is a fucking mess, Jai.”“I know, but she's my mate, Drew. I have to do everything I can to help her end this.”“Of course you do; only an idiot wouldn't.”“Yeah, and I'm not an idiot.” I chuckle.“Matter of opinion.”I narrow my eyes playfully while growling at him.Cheeky prick!Drew smiles. “I see you finally completed the mating process.” He points to the mark on my neck, proudly on show, thanks to leaving the two top buttons of
I can't stop looking at Melinda as she sleeps peacefully beside me. Last night was the best night of my life, bar none. Melinda, dressed in that sexy underwear and looking like a Goddess, will never leave me. I had no idea she'd bought such scantily clad things while out with Stella.The way she took charge turned me on like nothing before. Goddess, I almost died!I'm not going to pretend I've never orgasmed in my life, I'm a man, and masturbating is a done thing once you're a teenager. Well, it was for me. I didn't see anything wrong with it, even though my grandmother once laughed about saving myself for my mate.I was fourteen, and she embarrassed me like no one ever has before or will again. I don't believe she knew what I'd done fifteen minutes prior in my bathroom. Faye was simply explaining to my brother and me how important it was not to be with other girls because our mates would be upset, just as we would if they'd been with others.Damien took Faye's words literally and bel
I reluctantly pull out of the most passionate kiss we’ve ever shared. With a smirk on my face, I slip my arms behind my back, unstrap my bra, remove it, and then toss it to the floor. I smile as Jai’s eyes widen, my nipples pebble, and I want him to touch me.“Touch me, please, Jai.”Slowly, Jai slides his hands along my stomach, and my belly clenches while my pussy gushes. I’d be embarrassed, but the growl of desire from Jai only makes me wetter.“I can smell your arousal, baby girl.”“It’s all for you,” I whisper while stroking the back of his head.Finally, Jai cups my small breasts in his hands, and I can’t help groaning as he slides his thumbs over my erect nipples. My head drops back of its own accord.As Jai’s hot mouth decends on my right breast, I cry out in pleasure. The feeling of his tongue lapping at my nipple is almost too much.I grab the back of Jai’s neck and drop my head to his shoulder with a whimper. The sensations rushing through me, heightened by the mate bond, h
I am so nervous right now, yet excited at the same time. Tonight is the night I give myself to Jai, not because he's pressured me in any way; he hasn't; in fact, he's done anything but. However, I feel the time is right, and I'm one hundred per cent ready for this.I might not know a lot about sex because I have no personal experience. But I know that it's okay to be a little scared of what's to come.I've never seen a penis in my life, apart from Jai's. Even then, I didn't see him standing and only looked for a second. It's intimidating thinking about Jai's penis, what he'll do with it, and what he'll do to me. But I can't think badly when I know Jai would never hurt me.I want Jai and I to complete the mate bond. This isn't even to do with what Sally said about me needing the mate bond. It's because I love him; I don't have one single doubt in my mind that Jai is my world. My mate is perfect, and he never asks me to do anything I'm not comfortable with. He always puts me first and t
Ten minutes later, I’m sitting behind my desk in my office. Much like every other room, the office has been completely redecorated. The walls are pale grey, and the desk, bookcase, etc., are dark mahogany. The sofa on the other side of the room is black, and the rug matches; even the wooden flooring is dark.There’s also a massive portrait of Lana and me sitting proudly on the wall to my right. I like to see my mate, no matter the room I’m in. I can’t have her in the physical yet, so pictures will have to do for now.Violet sits in the chair in front of my desk, fidgeting with her fingers. Poor kid; Goddess only knows what Kyle put her through as a pack slave. I don’t even want to think about it, if I’m honest.“Violet, can you look at me, please?”Dark, almost black eyes look into mine. I narrow my eyes a little because her eyes seem to lighten and darken now and again. It may have something to do with her mood. It’s not like I haven’t seen eyes like Violet’s before; my grandmother’s
I wake up alone, much like every morning for the past ten months. Alone without Lana, my mate, the love of my life. The only difference today is that I wake up as Alpha of Crimson Shadow Pack. I woke up in a strange packhouse, in a bed I'd never shared with Lana.The only thing that settles me enough to sleep some is Lana's pillow and the last nightdress she wore in my presence. Her scent is still on them, even if it is fading.Goddess, I miss my mate so much I can barely breathe, and it doesn't get any easier as the days pass.I drag myself out of bed, shower, brush my teeth, and dress for the day ahead. I decided on a navy suit and tie, a black dress shirt, and black dress shoes. I comb my hair, splash on some aftershave, and look at myself in the mirror. My hazel eyes have long since lost their sparkle.I lift the crystal-encrusted photo frame from my dresser. I smile at the image smiling back at me, and I stroke my finger down Lana's cheek and sigh.“I miss you so much, baby.”'I m
I lead Melinda over to the sofa on the other side of the room. We sit side by side, hand in hand.“What's wrong, Jai?”“I need to speak to you about last night.” Melinda stares at me, unblinking. “Last night, while I slept, you teleported out of the room and ended up at the forest's edge.”“Oh,” Melinda sighs. “How did you find out?”“Drew woke me up and told me where you were.” I stroke my thumb over her knuckles. “I spoke to you, but you didn't answer. You seemed to be asleep; your eyes were glazed over. Why didn't you tell me you were having problems enough to sleepwalk?”“I wasn't sleepwalking, Jai.” She sighs again, lets go of my hand and gets out of her seat. She bites the pad of her thumb while pacing.I stand and take her hand in mine. “What is it, Melinda? What aren't you telling me?”“I was going to tell you, Jai, I promise.”“Tell me what?” I take her face in my hands. “Baby, what's going on?”“Last night, I heard a woman whisper my name,” Melinda explains the events of las
There's a recreation room where pack members, warriors, etc., can hang out during breaks. Not that Drew wants a bunch of wolves here at the same time.The dining room is humongous, with a long solid oak dining table with fifty chairs surrounding it! Shit, this place is something else. The light fixtures alone look as though they cost a fortune, let alone the medieval-looking wall lights. Goddess, it's all so magnificent!The French doors at the back of the room lead to a private garden. It's beyond anything I ever imagined. There's a barbeque section, an archway that leads to a pool, and even an outdoor bar. But the flowers are immense!I don't know what the packhouse looked like before Drew had it renovated, but I doubt it was anything like this. Every room smells of fresh paint, and they're so clean. The decorators really did an excellent job.Finally, Drew leads us to the upper level of the house. He doesn't show us every room but explains each bedroom imitates the next. They all h
