A naked man.

My breath catches in my throat, and for a moment, time stands still. He's tall, at least six-foot-three, with wide shoulders and a thin, muscular physique that hints at raw power sheathed in superb balance. His skin is sun-kissed, scarred with cuts I recognize. The white, pink lines across his ribs where I stitched him back up. The small scars on his shoulder and thigh where silver had burned him.

But his eyes are what steal my lungs' breath.

Silver. The same liquid silver I have watched gazing at me for three weeks. The same cunning, too-knowing eyes that have seen my every step, heard my every word.

Shadow's eyes.

"No," I gasp, backing away stumbling. "This cannot be."

The man does not move, does not say a word. He just stands there and watches me with those familiar eyes, his chest rising and falling with slow, deliberate breaths. His dark hair is falla across his forehead in waves, his face angular and aristocratic and close very beautiful in a way that makes my knee

  • Mated To The Cursed Alpha    Mira Blackwood

    The sellers in this section speak in hushed tones, and their customers appear more serious, and desperate."That's it," Kael says, nodding toward a stall draped in deep purple. Herbs hang in loops along the rafters, and the air beside it radiates with something that may be magic or merely incense smoke. A sign claims "Curses... And every other thing was written in a language that's not English."The woman standing behind the counter is in her thirties, with auburn-colored hair and piercing green eyes. She is rummaging through what may be a set of crystals, each containing a different color of inner light."Excuse me," I speak up as we enter. "Are you Mira Blackwood?"The woman looks up, and for an instant I see something flick across her face. Surprise? Recognition? But it is so fleeting that I might have imagined it."No," she says, her voice lightly accented with something I don't recognize. "My name is Kaia. Mira Blackwood died three years ago. Heart failure. I bought her stall out

  • Mated To The Cursed Alpha    The Underground Market

    The words hit me like ice water, but Kael's tone is more urgent than panicked. Not an attack on the doorstep, but close enough to matter."Who is here?" Luna asks, looking back and forth between us with growing worry."Elena," Kael says. "We need to go. Now."I can see him trying to hide his senses from being obvious. His nostrils flare slightly, feeling the air, and his entire posture was starting to be unstable. But to Luna, he probably just seems like some guy who's suddenly dashing around."Okay," I say, getting out my emergency medical kit from the desk. "Luna, I'm sorry, but we actually do have to leave.""Elena, what is wrong?" Luna follows us to the door, her voice laced with alarm. "You're dashing around as though something's chasing you.""It's actually not like that," I say quickly. "But we're fine. Just... close up early today, okay? Leave. Go home. Don't hang around here late by yourself.""You're scaring me.""I don't mean to." I move to embrace her hastily, and I catch

  • Mated To The Cursed Alpha    Leaving Everything Behind

    he sunlight streaming through my apartment windows is different. Less promise of a new day and more like a spotlight on what I'm leaving behind.Kael's at my kitchen table, oddly normal considering he became a wolf and killed three people less than twelve hours ago. He's wearing the clothes i borrowed from my neighbor under the pretense of a plumbing emergency, and he's managed to make coffee without burning down my kitchen like I'd assume. The only reminder of last night is the silvering of his scars on his arms and the occasional flash in his eyes from that otherworldly light."You have to call your clinic," he says to me without looking up from the document in his hand. Another strange flash of normalcy in what's otherwise become a completely abnormal situation."I know." I look down at my phone, trying to figure out how I'm going to tell Luna that I won't be coming in today. Or tomorrow. Or maybe never again. "What do I even say?""Family emergency. Someone has died in family. Som

  • Mated To The Cursed Alpha    Silver and Blood

    "Sit on the edge of the bed. And don't move until I get back with my med kit."He say on the bed with a pain-filled groan, blood still oozing through the makeshift bandages we'd ripped from my spare shirt. In the harsh light of my bedside lamp, the silver scars look worse than they did in the car. Red veins fan out from each wound, and the skin around them is an ugly gray that makes my stomach knot up."Elena," he says to me as I search my closet for the first aid kit I keep at home. "You don't have to do this. Werewolves healing isn't human-like. I'll be fine in a couple of hours.""You have silver pieces stuck in your system." I step out and set down my kit on the nightstand. "From what I learned from those books, werewolves don't like silver. Those pieces need to be taken out now, or your supernatural healing mechanism won't be able to work as it should.""Did you read about silver poisoning?""Dr. Blackwood' work." I pull on latex gloves and begin to lay out tools on a new towel.

  • Mated To The Cursed Alpha    The Alpha's Truth

    The man in the car with me is covered with blood, panting like he has just run a marathon, and telling me to drive faster down the empty streets so he can be at rest, his super-healing mechanisms can work effectively.Three hours earlier, the most unbelievable thing to ever happen to me was a difficult surgery on a German shepherd.Now I'm driving home with a werewolf who just killed three armed hunters with his bare hands, and it feels normal."Hurry up, Elena," Kael says through his gritted teeth, his hand pressed against the silver cut in his ribs. "The longer the bits of silver stays in me, the more difficult it'll be it for my body to heal."I press the gas harder, taking the turns to my apartment way more faster."How do you know so much about it?" I asked, taking the turn too sharply once again. "About silver poisoning and healing and all of that?""Because I've been living with it my entire life. We need to discuss. What I am. What you are. Why those hunters knew where to look

  • Mated To The Cursed Alpha    The Wolf Unleashed

    Instead of collapsing, instead of fleeing, something changes in his eyes. His body spasms and jerks, and I stand frozen with horror, looking at the transformation that began in my apartment three nights ago now at last complete.This time, there's no transforming back and forth. This is raw, unrelenting, fierce.His bones creak and stretch with sounds similar to splintering tree branches. His back arcs impossibly, his muscles straining and reforming under flesh that breaks out in thick black fur. His face changing completely and his canine shine in the streetlight.He's no more the dog I've known over the last three weeks. He's becoming something more terrifying.When the transformation is finished, a gigantic black wolf takes Shadow's place. Not dog-sized, but wolf-sized in the same way ancient legends had described them. Quite five feet tall at the shoulder, with a body made for speed and power and murder. His eyes burn with human intelligence, but the fury that shines from them is
