“That’s it!” Portia yelped, shooting up from the sofa so suddenly that the magazine slid off her lap and hit the floor with a sharp slap.

Across the living room, Sterling jolted in his seat so violently that his fingers slipped on his video game controller.

On the giant TV, his character died with a dramatic groan and a bright "GAME OVER" text flashed across the screen.

"Shit, Portia!" he barked, twisting around to glare at her, his heart still racing. "What the hell is wrong with you? Did

  • Sugar baby to my Father’s Alpha   SOMETHING DOESN'T ADD UP

    “That’s it!” Portia yelped, shooting up from the sofa so suddenly that the magazine slid off her lap and hit the floor with a sharp slap. Across the living room, Sterling jolted in his seat so violently that his fingers slipped on his video game controller. On the giant TV, his character died with a dramatic groan and a bright "GAME OVER" text flashed across the screen. "Shit, Portia!" he barked, twisting around to glare at her, his heart still racing. "What the hell is wrong with you? Did you have a bad dream or something?" "No," Portia murmured, one finger tapping slowly against her lips, her sharp eyes fixed on nothing at all. “So why did you jump like something bit your ass?” Sterling hissed. "Don't you think something is off?" She asked, her voice thoughtful and distant. Sterling turned back to the game. "About what?" He asked, his tone bored and irritated. Portia rolled her eyes at how incredibly clueless her brother was. He was always perfectly content to just sit

  • Sugar baby to my Father’s Alpha   ABSENCE

    "All of this is your fault!" Caspian yelled, pointing an accusing finger. His face twisted. The fear had not left his eyes, but fury burned right through it. "You always do this.” He continued, stepping from behind his car door. “You come into her life, you wreck something, you walk away, and she's the one who bleeds. Are you not tired of this circle of rubbish? Break it. Just leave her alone!" Marcus and the other guards stiffened, ready to interfere in case their Alpha attacked the yelling man. But Alistair barely heard a single word Caspian was saying again. Every word slid past his ears like water down glass. A single question pounded through his skull, louder than his wolf and louder than his pride. Where is she? Where the fuck is she? Ten minutes ago, he had been standing on the sidewalk, rigid with the need to respect her space and her terms. He had told himself he would not invade her privacy

  • Sugar baby to my Father’s Alpha   THE MISSING PIECE

    "Alpha, you need to let go of him," Marcus pleaded, gripping Alistair’s rigid forearm with both hands.Alistair did not hear him. The blood was pounding in his ears, and his wolf was snarling behind his eyes, wild and hungry and desperate for something to tear apart.Marcus did not have the hierarchical authority or the sheer supernatural strength to forcefully yank an Alpha away from a target. He had to rely entirely on desperate reasoning. Caspian’s face was already rapidly turning an alarming shade of blue from the lack of oxygen. His fingers clawed weakly at Alistair's wrist, and his lips were parting without any sound coming out."Sir, please!" Marcus urged, stepping carefully into Alistair's line of sight. "He is human, sir. He cannot handle this level of force. You are going to kill him."The word human finally penetrated the thick, feral fog clouding Alistair’s brain. Alistair blinked, his eyes dropping to the man he was pinning against th

    Marcus stiffened as his alpha slowly turned his head to look at him."You guys know I can hear you, right?" Alistair asked, his voice hollow and exhausted. "I am not some rabid dog that you want to put down."Adrian sighed loudly over the phone. "Well, we are just being careful, Ali. We do not think that of you. You know that.""Yeah, I understand," Alistair muttered. He turned his back to Marcus and stared up at the dark window of Solana's apartment once again.Marcus ended the call and slipped the phone into his pocket. He looked at his Alpha, a rare shiver of worry trembling in his chest.Alistair Vance was easily one of the most steady, stable, and terrifyingly calm people Marcus had ever met in his entire life. Marcus vividly remembered the dark years of the pack. After the unfortunate, tragic death of Alistair's mother, the old Alpha had completely withdrawn into his grief. Alistair's father had practically gone feral, neglecting his son and his pack entirely.But Alistair had

  • Sugar baby to my Father’s Alpha    CONTIGENCY PLAN

    "Marcus just reached out to me," Adrian said, his voice crackling over the phone line with deep, undeniable concern. "He is worried, Ali. What exactly is going on over there?"Alistair barely seemed to hear him. “Nothing.”“Nothing?” Adrian repeated. “Ali, Marcus said you’ve been out there for more than a day.”“Then Marcus talks too much.”“Are you listening to me?”Alistair dragged a hand through his hair and stared at the building across the street. “I need to speak to her.”Alistair paced the shadowed sidewalk beneath the glow of a flickering streetlamp. He ran a trembling hand through his messy hair. “I know you do,” Adrian replied, his voice softening with pity. “But you can’t keep doing this.”“Doing what?”“Whatever the hell you’re doing right now,” he hissed. “You’re sitting outside someone’s residence like a man waiting for a target to emerge from a bunker.”“I’m not waiting for a target.”“Then what are you waiting for?”Alistair said nothing.Adrian exhaled slowly. “Have

  • Sugar baby to my Father’s Alpha   ENTITLEMENT

    Alistair pressed the accept button on the steering wheel console and the call connected through the vehicle's Bluetooth speakers. Immediately, a chaotic wall of sound filled the quiet, luxurious cabin of the SUV. "What is going on?" Sterling shouted, his voice layered with pure outrage. "What does the lawyer mean someone else is stalling this will reading?" Portia shrieked at the exact same time, her pitch piercing and shrill. Their voices overlapped into a loud, indiscernible mess of complaints and demands. Alistair let them yell for a few seconds, leaning his head back against the leather headrest. A dry, humorless chuckle finally escaped his lips. "It is nice to hear both of you back together." "That is not the point of this call, Uncle Ali," Sterling snarled, cutting through the noise. "Stop deflecting and tell us what is happening." "Yeah," Portia chimed in aggressively. "Mr. Hayes just called us. He said an extra person has officially refused to participate in th

    Solange felt a literal snap in the center of her chest as she stared at the heavy oak doors. It wasn’t the metaphoric ache of a breakup. It was a white-hot blade of agony carved through her ribs, twisting around her heart and pulling tight.She tried to scream, but the air in her lungs had turned t

    Solange looked at him, her brows furrowing as confusion rose alongside irritation. If he wanted to insult her, he could have done it outright. “What are you talking about?” she bit back. “What smell? I literally just took a bath.” He shook his head; his eyes had a faraway look, like he wasn’t hear

  • Sugar baby to my Father’s Alpha   CHAPTER 3: HOPE

    Solange woke slowly, her body aching in all the ways that made her heart flutter and a strange humming in her chest. Her head was foggy, but she felt a calm she had never known, like she was connected to something that had been missing all her life. She felt… claimed, as if the night had somehow gi

    "Sol! Table four needs a server," the manager barked. "And don't look him in the eye."Solange nodded and quickly hurried down the corridor to the VIP lounge of the Sapphire Heights, wrinkling her nose at the smell of expensive cigars and the heavy, humid scent of a desert storm rolling over the Ve
