“You know this is a setup, right? He only came and said all that to make you follow him.” I was jogging to keep up with Elara as she strode down the hallway, her steps long and deliberate. I didn’t know where she was headed until she turned down the corridor toward the gym.

Elara didn’t stop until she reached the heavy door. She turned with her hand on the handle and looked back at me. “Yeah, I know.”

    Chapter 77: The Scrimtana’s JusticeKaelenI wasn’t counting on my mate stabbing me in the goddamn chest.It hurt like a motherfker, and the burning alone nearly dropped me, but somehow the bch had managed to slide the blade between my ribs without finding my heart. Pretty sure she punctured my lung. But she had stupidly forgotten that we were a marked pair, and she was already on her knees, gasping and crying.I’d been willing to make her my queen. After this, I’d keep her on her knees for the rest of her life — however long that turned out to be. Louisa was pulling her into her arms, and it was almost too easy to level the pistol at both of them. I paused for a moment, genuinely considering whether I could place the shot precisely enough t

    Mandi“You know this is a setup, right? He only came and said all that to make you follow him.” I was jogging to keep up with Elara as she strode down the hallway, her steps long and deliberate. I didn’t know where she was headed until she turned down the corridor toward the gym.Elara didn’t stop until she reached the heavy door. She turned with her hand on the handle and looked back at me. “Yeah, I know.”“But you’re going anyway?”“Well, yeah.” She flashed me that c.ocky grin before she pushed the door open and hit the lights.She was so beautiful in her confidence. It also terrified me. Kaelen might be her fated mate, but I had known him for most of my life. I knew exactly what a sick f**k he was, and how cruel he could be when he felt like it. My blood ran hot and cold at the same time — desire and dread, right next to each other. I loved Elara. The thought of her g

  • Promised to the Wrong Alpha   Seventy Five: The Bait and the Trap

    KaelenElara thought she had me by the short hairs. She had absolutely no idea what I was capable of.I shrugged my jacket over my new fatigues and went to her room. Even before I reached the white door I could hear voices on the other side. Mandi was in there. I couldn’t help but smile.It just kept getting better.I knocked firmly. A moment later Elara yanked the door open, her lovely face flushed with annoyance. One look at her and I felt desire coil deep in my gut.“What do you want now?” she snapped.I looked past her into the pink and white bedroom. Mandi was on the bed, leaning against the headboard. If it hadn’t been for her scent, I might have doubted it was the same person I had known almost my entire life. She had cut her hair short, and she was wearing black leather shorts and a tight halter top. Surprisingly sexy. The Mandi I remembered would never have dressed that way. More than the clothes, though

    ElaraI was coming down the hall running a towel through my hair, still sweaty from the gym, not yet to my room for a proper shower, when I caught Kaelen’s voice from inside my father’s office.“This is extremely urgent, Alpha Forge. I have a man on the inside — a council member — who told me that Julian is planning to strike tonight!”I shifted position to see through the gap. My father was behind his desk, face set in its default mask of careful neutrality. “Why would Julian attack Silvercrest? We have a long history of peaceful and mutually beneficial relations.”Kaelen stood from his chair. His eyes cut to the door, and I knew he had already registered my presence. “I should think it was obvious. Julian wants to claim Silvercrest for himself. Now that he has Louisa, he may feel entitled to your pack. He can’t risk that I’ll rise again.”“If Julian has marked Lo

  • Promised to the Wrong Alpha   Chapter Seventy-Three: The Price of Silence

    LouisaThe day of Julian’s Alpha ceremony will be embedded in my memory for the rest of my life. It was as though not only his title was restored, but something deeper — his soul, maybe, or simply the version of himself he had been before grief had hollowed him out. He looked so handsome up on that podium. So certain of himself. And yet he was still the same quietly humble man I had fallen in love with.The months of recovery had done their work. The bony hollows had filled back in with muscle, and he didn’t even break a sweat carrying me up the stairs and laying me in the center of his bed. He crawled over me, knees bracketing my hips, and I ran my hands up his thighs and over his hips with a sense of satisfaction I didn’t bother to hide.“Alpha Julian,” I purred, reaching for the hook of his suit tro

    JulianI felt slightly dazed as I climbed the podium with Louisa’s warm, strong hand in mine. As if she sensed it, she turned her head and flashed me a smile that made the whole thing feel possible.I tried not to compare her to Annie. I couldn’t quite stop myself. Annie had been small and fragile — a lovely, delicate thing that needed protection, and I had loved her completely for exactly what she was. I would never have wished her to be different.But Louisa stood tall beside me, her wild hair loose around her shoulders, her head high, her brown eyes alive with something that looked a great deal like joy. Her expression held a quiet, unspoken promise: whatever came next, she would stand at my side as my equal, always. Not behind me. Not in my shadow. Beside me.I squeezed

    KaelenIt took three rounds in the shower before I finally felt clean. I scrubbed away every trace of Louisa’s flowery stench, had Mandi strip the bed, and sent all the bedding to the laundry.And yet I still felt soiled.I had no clear memory of the night. Was it possible her heat had come on and

    JulianChloe looked less than thrilled when she pulled open the door. She had a well-worn pink fuzzy bathrobe cinched around her middle and a satin sleep cap on her head. She blinked at me with the expression of a woman who could not believe someone was on her doorstep at six in the morning.“Ah, A

    JulianI didn’t know it would hurt so much.I had slipped back to the pack house for nothing more than a shower and a change of clothes. Sleeping out in the woods was manageable enough, but certain basics still required a roof. I had timed it for early morning, when the house would be quiet.As I p

    LouisaThe only remotely sexy underwear I owned was a black babydoll set I’d bought for my last birthday. Checking the rear view in the mirror, I could still see the fold creases pressed into the fabric. I tucked myself into the cups and noticed they felt snugger than I remembered.A sharp knock ma
