-RAINA'S POV-

“Jakub, can I borrow you for a minute?”

It was around 6 a.m. that I stole away to the training center for a workout.

I found him in the equipment room cleaning a line of daggers outlined on a table. His chestnut eyes rounded when he turned to acknowledge me. He was a little surprised that I was here, disturbing him.

“I need a warrior to hunt for someone.” I stood in front of him.

“Um, Delta Raj could help you with that.” He scratched his auburn head, ruffling the perfectly long bowl cut that made him so cute. Not handsome, but pretty cute. Maybe when he gained more weight and muscles he would start to look more masculine.

Waving hands to dismiss that, I quickly added, “I want to do this on my own. How hard could it be to find this girl?”

“You’re looking for a woman?” He asked, getting curious with his eyes locking with mine. Realizing this, he swiftly cast them to the floor and shifted uncomfortably on his feet.

“Her name is Jiya Kaur. She joined our pack two mont

    -RAINA'S POV- “Miss. Raina, are you ready to spar?” Snapping me out of my reverie was a tall, thickly built blonde warrior. His gray eyes glinted with amusement as he observed me with a smirk. It was now that I noticed all the other intrigued eyes steadfastly watching to see what would unfold between Valen and me. “Let's go.” I capped the bottle, resting it between the large twining roots of the tree, and followed the guy onto the field. A million holes bore into my back with the heat of Valen's eyes stalking me. Ignore him, Raina. Just ignore him. The warrior halted and faced me. “Do you want us to shift into our wolf form?” Swiftly, I shook my head. Letting Hera out would be a big mistake. She'd run to her mate, especially since she wanted to clear his mind of any inhibitions. She'd probably rally that my announcement was done irrationally and that we didn't mean it. “Tell me your name,” I asserted. “It's Huckleback,” he heralded. “Don't go easy on me.” His lips twitched

    -RAINA'S POV- In the blink of an eye, the brunette charged at me. She punched me across the face, catching me off guard. I saw stars and gasped as my head swiped to the side, expelling air. A jarring pain cropped up in my neck and cheeks as I staggered backwards. Blood went down my throat. “The winner gets a date with me!” Valen boomed in a power pose with fists on his waist. The crowd went “Oooooh! Some whistled and cheered. “Go, Kristen!” The blonde from her posse rooted, standing beside Benji on the second floor. So, that was the name of my challenger. I swallowed the blood in my mouth and scoffed. She held a smirk that glinted proudly in her eyes after getting the first hit. By now, phones from people's pockets are popped out, aiming their cameras at us. They surrounded the field like a stadium, some sitting cross-legged on the grass-covered areas. But I don't give a flying flute in their direction. I had to focus on the match. House rules dictated best out of ten or when

    -VALEN'S POV- Two scents fluttered around my senses. Raina's bluebell and cherry mate scent triggered that pull for me to rush to her. Then the metallic rich blood odor was inciting Zeus to force himself through just to go to her aid. Holding a hand across her ribs, the door opened, and she staggered over to the bed, sitting down. She groaned against the pain. Her yellow tank top was largely marred by blood and oozing from her lacerations through the sliced garment, over her fingers. Seeing her in pain gutted me, eating at my heart. Shoving the door shut, her head snapped up to see me. Shock elevated her brows and her mouth slightly parted. “I can't deal with you right n ―” Then her eyes rounded to see what I held in my hand. Horrified, she looked like she had seen a ghost. Absolutely horrified. Instinctively, I dropped the doll on the floor and dashed to her side. My emerald green collided with her electric blues. The unsettling gaze she dispensed puzzled me, but I concentrated

    -RAINA'S POV- Why is it so easy for miscommunications to occur in relationships? A misunderstanding fluctuated between us. It was one that I wanted to instantly obliterate. I held my breath anticipating what kind of venom Valen was about to spit at me. “That doll was on your dresser when I got here. It caught my attention because of the tag that said Valen Jr. I was curious about it and took it up to examine it. But now I'm confused because it seemed that you were putting the blame on me for something that I know nothing about,” he explained, his lecherous eyes flicked on my lips. “Why would you think that I'd tease you with a doll when I'd rather do that with my kisses?” “Anytime, baby.” Hera cooed in my head, swooning. My cheeks heated up at the sappy scenario he painted. I shrugged and just said, “Because I don't own a doll.” I never did. “So how could one be in my room?” “But it was here,” Valen insisted, staring dead at my eyes. “Swear to me that you are not lying.” I grab

In no time, I put on the lacy black underwear set and a yellow, knee-length, floral sundress with V-neck. When I exited the bathroom with the dirty training clothes in my hand, Valen sat hunched on the bed with legs apart and arms on his thighs. “Are you alright?” Concern crossed his features as his eyes stalked me. “Yeah,” I answered flatly, going to the laundry basket in the corner of my all-white walk-in closet. “This can’t be easy for you. Say the word and I’ll shut down Gramlynz.” Valen rose from the bed. “It’s fine.” I opened the basket and dropped the clothes inside. I heard his footsteps drawing closer, bouncing off the white oak Herringbone hardwood floor. Wouldn’t people blame me for eradicating one of the major joys in their lives? How could I take social media from the werewolf kingdom? “When this is over, you and I will go away to an

    -RAINA'S POV- Wicked is the curse of my reality that propelled me like an avalanche with eyes pressed open. Gravity pulled me down. Hurtling through endless blobs of peach-colored clouds. The finale was obscured and where this leads, I was not sure. Like a shot-down aircraft, I rapidly descended. My chest tightened, constricting the air that I struggled to inhale into my lungs. Falling without a parachute. No safety net below. No bungee cords attached to my waist. No skydiving trainer latching me to him like a baby kangaroo. Falling into a bloodthirsty abyss or maybe not. More miles of white clouds to go. I screamed so much that my throat became scratchy, hoarse, and dry. Yet, I could not control my mouth's shrieks or outcries. Not when hollow dread was gnawing inside of me from the worst roller-coaster ride of my life. Where was Valen? Where am I? Who is doing this? My brain struggled to understand what was going on. My heartbeat frantically hammered in my chest. Suddenly t

Don’t just hide.” Valen’s gruffly demanded, swiveling around. “You have no authority here, Alpha Prince.” The feminine voice returned with a giggle. “You brought us here, so come out and talk to us.” I tried to sound amicably. No one answered. No one was sighted. There was no rustling of trees or sounds of animals. Only the bitter brumal breeze and us. I looked up at Valen with wide unsure eyes and admitted, “I’m actually scared now.” “The gods usually make some sort of deal. Even if it was Cronus, I believe he should offer you a way to redeem yourself.” His gentle words gave me a little hope. The heat that glistened off the water's surface caressed my skin, coaxing and inviting. I anticipated feeling the hot water against my flesh and hopefully, it will ease my mind and body from this suspenseful tension. Valen lowered me to my feet on a red pebbled ground. The orange-agate crown-shaped boulders surrounding the spring resembled a California popp

I had completely forgotten where we were. “Is this your so-called date?” I wondered, dragging my eyes up the length of his body. “I think you are trying to seduce me.” A masculine satisfaction flickered in his emeralds, and he drew closer until a wafer-thin sliver of stream and water separated our bodies. “I’m always trying to seduce you.” My chest fluttered and my cheeks started to flush. A helpless giggle left me and lust for him formed in my belly. It was overwhelmingly terrifying how much I loved him. By the time I left here, I was sure to have a love hangover. For a fleeting moment, I felt his hardness brush the natural swell of my lower belly beneath the water. My thighs impulsively clenched together. I stared back into his regal features, his jet black hair flowing inches past his broad shoulders that were getting wavier from the vapors of the spring. “I’m desperately, insanely at

I don’t even know where I am.” Venus’ hysterical voice became shaky with fear. “What the hell, Valen? Is this a drill? What’s going on?”My face twisted in confusion and utter disbelief. “Put-put Raina on. I want to talk to her.”“He wants to talk to you,” I heard Venus telling her, breath stuttering.There was a soft rustling, and Raina’s angry voice came on the line. “Now you listen real, real good. You will do as I say, or your sister gets it. No more fucking around. What’s it going to be?”A pang of longing hits me, missing her sorely.“No. You’re not going to hurt her. Vee’s your best friend.” I called her bluff. Hopefully, she didn’t mean it. “If you want me, I’ll come to you. This is between you and me.”“Get your head out of your ass. You think this is a joke?” Raina snapped, which ruffled Zeus. “Who do you think you’re dealing with?”She went silent, which pained me.Then th

I’ll become her new mate and treat her bet—.”A broiling anger surged within me, demanding release. My movement was quick, as I clawed the Worgen across the face, tearing off a chunk of his jaw. The force of it snapped his face to the right. He muffled a long howl.“Come on, tough guy. What? You aren’t gutsy anymore?” Devin steadied the guy’s face in my direction.Gustav released a mocking laugh as blood ran down his neck, trickling past his chest. “I was going to say—” He wrung his neck, wrestling his head sideways to spit curdling blood to the floor. “—pwah.” And then he gazed up at me. “We slept together, you know.”The pain and shock of his words slammed into me, nearly knocking me off my feet, but then, in a split second, Zeus surged to the surface.

Silver and vampire toxins were easily absorbed by his system, making the usual torture measures useless.Underestimation was deadly, so I had to find other options.Stripped completely naked, he sat on the blue calcite floor with his knees bent and feet tucked towards his crotch, ankles in cuffs.His hands were behind his lower back in black and neon blue handcuffs that could only be unlocked by Nyx’s magical command. Sweat had drenched his hair and body. His putrid smell lingered in the air.Devin stood with his feet apart and his hands in his jeans pockets.Heat radiated off me, and my abhorrence for this crab-louse made my blood boil. A murder

    VALEN’S POVA jolt of frustration ran through me. The ongoing search for Raina was long, complicated, and so painfully intricate that it hurt my brain.“This is insane,” I seethed, looking at the images on the large monitors before the Theta. “Patrol would have been able to stop Raina, but they never saw her. The magical barrier is intact. She has to be here, and I want her location now.”With one hand gripping the backrest of Jason's lofty chair and the other flattened on his office desk, I bent beside him as he nervously checked all the other video feeds from the drones. The computer trilled and beeped as his fingers worked deftly.Devin paced back and forth anxiously with his hands in his jeans pockets. “None of this makes sense. Raina is not invisible. We should have found her already. Huh? Venus is not here, and Azara hasn’t reported seeing her. Where could she have gone on foot?”“That slippery little Luna,” Theo grumbled, taking the tablet from his brother, and he slumped in hi

Not only did she stab you, but she also whipped your ass and ghosted you.”Not answering, I shoulder-checked him with a deadly glare of utter annoyance. The Gammas, in their sweat-soaked gym shorts, gawked at me with wide cognac brown eyes, their jaws hanging open.A bloodthirst burned in my veins, and the air conditioning at the IT Hub did nothing to cool me down. Yet, Theo dared to peeve me with his buffoonery.With slow, menacing steps, Devin walked around the hi-tech rectangular table and hit Theo upside the back of his head, fed-

My body tried to curl in on itself – to replicate a spider's dead dusk, but he kept my flailing limbs pinned. My body heaved.Then, Valen pulled his fangs out, licking the punctured flesh and clearing the blood. Sparks erupted. Fucking sparks shot all the way to my toes.Each lick of his tongue was like morphine. Like a kick. I basked in it. I loved it. The bond was like being controlled by an entity. It was making me want him. Dammit.My body tightened, lungs squeezed and butterflies raged uncontrollably inside of me as he flicked his sinful tongue and dragged it wetly across my sensitive flesh.Focus, Raina! Don't let him swoop you in again. This can’t go on. I must bust out of here.“I want to fuck you, overstimulate you, edge you on until you're in tears, chanting your safe word,” he crooned.

His robust right arm circled my waist while his left hand settled above my breast, slowly traveling up to my throat. Electric sparks exploded everywhere our skin touched.“Let me tell you something, Bluebella. You've unlocked a dangerous side of Zeus that even I feared,” he whispered huskily into my ear, gripping my neck. “But since you want to keep this bratty behavior up all night, challenging me, that part of him is going to burst out of his cage.”All the while, his emeralds were fixated on mine. He dipped his head over my shoulders. My flitting eyes watched him as my heart drum

As quiet as ever, I held my sword tighter, angling it in a left-plow position with the long edge up.Committed to the assassination task, my blow had to be quick and precise, piercing the heart. I cannot miss this golden opportunity.Standing exactly beside the nightstand, I glanced down at the ripped muscles of his heaving chest. Grunting, his sweaty head shifted from side to side. His face twitched, and his closed eyelids flexed as he breathed jaggedly in his sleep.Cardamom and amber surrounded me, the potent scent wafted straight from the source into my nostrils. A mouthwatering scent, so maddening. Perilously beguiling. The bond beat against my chest like a bone-crushing drum. The physica

I did not care about what was up with these two. Raina was priority. The mate bond wrenched at me in a silent cry from her that only I could hear. Missing the softness of holding her hands and basking in her endearing presence, hugging, touching, gazing—I just can't go on without it.“I'm pissed too because the future hasn't changed and at some point, you'll give the dick away.” Devin aired bluntly. “How could you? After all those times you swore to me…”“I'll never cheat on Raina.” I cut in sharply, darting daggers at him.Unconvinced, he huffed. Then he spoke again, his voice quieter. "She loves
