~ 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 tells her she’s up for the lunch date mom wants to have with her Sia and Kaia makes me more than a little paranoid.

The evening has gone by, and we will be leaving soon. I’ve just gone to do a final check on security before our departure. I didn’t want to talk to Uncle today, not about Milena.

I return to the group in time to see her complimenting Mom on her beauty as they stand and talk, and I have to admit the evening went better than I expected it to.

“We’ll leave soon,” I tell Milena before looking at Sia as I step back. ‘Can I have a word with you alone?’

‘What is it? You can just ask me through the mind-link,’ Sia responds, her eyes fixed on Kaia, who is speaking avidly.

‘Come with me,

Muselings can all agree on Roman. Hopefully Sia speaks out although she may be in denial bc of mate bond. Now these action scenes I’m loving like a movie:)

This is looking like an inside job. How they know the route and it is the second time they’ve been targeted

  • Reckless Hearts    46. The Fire Within

    ~ MILENA ~I’m just about to step out the door when someone speaks from behind me, “Just a minute there, Ruin.”I stop and look at Reaper, his cunning eyes fixed on me.“Yes?” I ask, focusing on my heartbeat. Something about him was off… and then suddenly it hits me where I have seen him before. At the ball I went to with Zion… he’s a werewolf!“I would love to have believed what you just said, but then why are there several werewolves around the perimeter?”I frown, turning to face him. “No, they couldn’t have followed me,” I answer smoothly, keeping my heart rate steady. I’ve practised this for years and it’s paying off.He cocks an eyebrow. “Are you accusing me of lying?” he asks, walking towards me.“Not at all, I’m just confident that no one followed me here.”“Then maybe they didn’t follow you; maybe you told them you were here, and in fact they’re here for your sake? What were you really doing out by that tree?” he asks menacingly, now advancing towards me.The urge to turn and

  • Reckless Hearts    45. A Search

    ~ MILENA ~I look at the men sitting as if they own the entire damn world, and in a way, they have.“So, what is it that couldn’t wait?” Shade asks, he’s sitting on the left, his dark eyes fixed on me.“I can take him down.”“Who?” Reaper asks, he’s sitting in the middle, his calculating eyes fixed on me. Why does it look like I’ve seen him somewhere else, and I mean not in the Arkan, but elsewhere…“Zion King.”“And how do you think that you’ll manage that?” Reaper asks.I pull down my collar with a jerk, schooling my face to repulsion. “I found out I’m his fated mate,” I mock, hating myself for this; but I’ve lived my life hiding my emotions, putting on an act, so it isn’t too hard to do. I just wished Zion wasn’t listening in on this. It would hurt him more.My eyes flick across all five, whose faces change. “He bonded you?” Blood asks. He’s the eldest here, but despite his aged face and almost fully white head of hair, his eyes are as sharp as steel.“Yeah,” I say, wrinkling my nos

  • Reckless Hearts    44. On Edge

    ~ ZION ~I marked her.I marked her, and it’s healing beautifully. I watch as she sleeps contently, unable to sleep with the excitement and happiness I’m feeling right now.My Woman, My Luna, My Lena.I chuckle softly at that. It’s how I first came about calling her Lena. I’m about to settle down beside her when her eyes suddenly snap open and she looks at me.“I think I know what the code might be for! When we were little, there was this media device that Milo would put movies onto so we could watch them when it was a strictly no internet mission Dad would be on. To log on there was a password, and I remember! I remember he used to tell me it’s a very long password, that there’s no limit to how long it could be and that I’ll never be able to guess it,” she says, her eyes wide as she holds onto me, a spark in her gorgeous eyes. “He always teased me about it. It has to be that.”I brush back her hair from her face and nod slowly. “Great. So would he have still had it?” I ask, my attenti

  • Reckless Hearts    43. Moments

    ~ MILENA ~The door opens quietly and my eyes snap open. I reach for the fork I had kept from lunch earlier, but I relax realising it's Zion, recognising his footsteps.“You really need to stop creeping around like a thief in the night,” I say, sitting up, gritting my teeth at the way my body groans with pain. I’ll get better soon. I’ve lived with more pain than this, but the annoying thing is I don’t like being stuck in a hospital.He smiles, the dim light of the hospital room illuminating his face, and I can tell he looks tired.“I didn’t want to disturb you, yet my woman clearly can’t relax unless I’m here.”My woman…We haven’t talked about us properly, but we’re falling into old patterns, becoming something. I never thought we would again. He leans over me, caging me between his arms before he kisses my forehead softly.“I won’t break,” I point out firmly.He smirks. “Trust me, I know, but this isn’t the kind of pain I want to give you.”He’s about to sit in the armchair when I sl

  • Reckless Hearts    42. A Sister's Pain

    ~ ZION ~“I can keep going,” I say, looking at the bloody man in front of me, this man who was supposed to be my Beta, my second in command, the one I trusted with so fucking much. “Now tell me everything you were blackmailing Sia with. Where is it?”“Shouldn’t your priorities be beyond that?” he grunts through the blood and pain. I’m not sure how long we can keep this up; we can’t do intense damage or Sia will feel it. It has to be minor, without damaging any of his internal organs.She rejected him. I heard that on the audio, so the bond is fractured, and that gives me room for some punishment.“She comes first. Now answer the goddamn question!”He smirks. “So you can kill me after I tell you?” he asks as I stare at his eyeless face. “Wait, you won’t kill me…”My eyes darken with blistering rage, and I grab him by the throat. “I will. Trust me, I fucking will. Since you want to be a fucking cunt, then I’ll treat you as one. Pliers.” I hold my hand out to one of my men, who is standin

  • Reckless Hearts    41. My Woman

    ~ ZION ~My car screeches to a halt outside of Sia’s as I see Uncle run a knife through a man. One swift glance around, I realise there are several men already sprawled on the ground, and Uncle is limping.“Get inside. Roman’s there and so is Milena,” Uncle Zade informs me with a sharp jerk of his head towards the house.Panic courses through me as I break into a run. What the fuck happened? I was told to get here by Xander, who said stuff has happened, but aside from that, I couldn’t get in touch with anyone on my way here.I now race towards the door, slamming into it with extreme force, ripping it straight off its hinges. The door falls to the ground with a deafening bang.I see Milena down the hall, staggering to her feet, her chest heaving, blood and destruction surrounding her. She stands there, holding a piece of glass in her hand. Blood covers it, but what makes my own blood boil at the sight of her is the bruises and cuts that cover her, and her torn clothes.At her feet, Roma
