Se connecterZion looked at Milo, who nodded.“One of the packs close to us offered to pay money for Jade,” Milo said. “I killed the man who tried to pay for my woman. There are packs out there experimenting, Zion.”Stroking her hair, Zion wondered what the fuck had happened to her after he bit her.“I need to go and fucking find something out.”Looking at Jade, he saw the concern in the other woman’s eyes.“Can I leave her with you?”“Yes.”Zion picked Maya up in his arms, helping her into the bed.“Zion?”He turned to Jade at her, speaking his name.“Her wolf responded to yours.”“I know.”He tensed, looking at his men, waiting for them to speak up. None of them did as the sympathy for Maya overshadowed everything else.“Is she the woman you’ve been searching for?” Jade asked.Zion didn’t answer her, walking out of his bedroom. One of the men handed him a pair of jeans. He was still too warm to wear anything more than a pair of jeans.“Where’s Juniper?” he asked.“Locked in her room,” Milo said.
He rinsed the last traces of shampoo from her hair, fingers careful as he worked through the strands. When the water ran clear, he shut it off and stepped out first, knotting a towel low on his hips. His erection hadn’t softened; it strained against the fabric, but he ignored it.“The wolf that bit you—was it solid black?” he asked, voice low.Maya nodded, water dripping from her lashes. “Came out of nowhere in an alley. I was just digging through my purse for my keys. It sniffed the air, locked onto me, and lunged. Took a bite out of my arm before I could even scream.”He grabbed another towel, draped it around her shoulders, and led her back into the bedroom. He sat on the edge of the mattress and tugged her between his thighs, trapping her gently. His hands settled on her hips, thumbs tracing slow circles over the damp terry cloth.“What happened once Rowan and Dax got you out of the city?”She stared past his shoulder, memories surfacing in jagged pieces. “I called out of work for
Maya felt the tension ease as the rope around her wrists loosened. For a brief, irrational moment, she wanted to scream at him to stop to leave her where she was, frozen and half-dead beneath the tree. That would have been easier. Dying alone felt less cruel than what she was meant to do.But no sound came.His scent wrapped around her, warm and grounding, cutting through the terror that had lived in her bones for days. It made her chest ache. Her hands were still bound close together, limiting her ability to strike or shove him away, though she doubted she had the strength left to do either.She didn’t want his help.Chain wanted her to destroy this man this alpha who smelled of safety and strength and things she didn’t deserve.“Easy,” he murmured. “I’ve got you. I’ll get you out of here.”The rope finally fell away from her wrists. Whatever strength she’d been holding onto vanished instantly. Her knees buckled, and she collapsed forward, straight into his arms. She didn’t remember
Her body had recovered quickly strong, healthy, responsive but Zion found that his interest had already burned itself out. The need was gone, leaving behind only restlessness. He stood at the window, naked and unbothered by the chill seeping through the stone walls, watching dawn stretch its pale fingers across the forest.Sunlight crept over the treetops, igniting the snow in shards of gold and white. The sight still stunned him. It always did. He had been born to this land, raised among these mountains, and even now at forty-six years old it never failed to steal his breath.Behind him, the bed shifted.Lidia rose quietly and came to him, pressing her body to his back. Her hands slid down his abdomen, then lower, fingers brushing over him with deliberate intent.“I’m staying through the weekend,” she said softly. “Unless you want me gone. I can behave. No smoking. I’ll even be good.”Her touch coaxed a faint response from his body. It had been a month since he’d last been with her a
Mary and Zeke's story has come to a close… But their world still continues in THE ALPHA VIRGIN TOY TWO Maya and Zion.Ready for another intense, sexy ride?Keep reading for the opening chapter of the next standalone of THE ALPHA VIRGIN TOY TWO:A ruthless alpha. A woman used as bait. A bond neither of them saw coming…######Maya’s breath shattered into panicked gasps as cold metal cinched tight around her throat. The steel links bit into her skin, tightening with every deliberate pull her alpha made. Chain watched her struggle with a cruel glint in his eyes, his laughter low and ugly.Her fingers clawed desperately at the chain, nails scraping uselessly against iron. It didn’t give. It never did.Slowly, methodically, he strangled her not enough to kill her outright, but enough to remind her who owned the air in her lungs. His gaze roamed her naked body with open contempt, lingering where it shouldn’t. Revulsion flooded her veins. If hatred alone could kill, he would have been dead a
Maya slammed into his flank with her muzzle, the playful blow knocking him slightly off balance. Her laughter echoed in his mind as she darted away. Try to enjoy yourself for once.She bolted toward the trees, deliberately choosing the path away from the waterfall. Zion let her go, counting slowly in his head as amusement curled warmly through his chest. She liked to think she could outrun him when the truth was far from it. He could catch her whenever he wanted but where was the fun in that?When he finally launched after her, the night air cut past his fur, the scent of water and moonlight thick in his lungs. Run faster, she taunted over her shoulder. You’re slowing down.He allowed the gap between them to stay just wide enough to keep her confident. She curved back toward the cliffs before he realized what she intended.“Maya ”Too late.She leapt.Zion skidded to the edge just in time to see her body twist midair, fur melting into skin as she surrendered to the fall. Fury punched
The couples she saw in the pack were always sweet together. Her first time had been awful, and the guy she’d shared it with had held her down as he rode her body hard. The only thing she recalled liking was being held down and the fact she couldn’t feel anything as he bit her during his release. Fr
“Tonight, you’re coming home with me. We’re going to get to the bottom of your problems. No one lies at my house. We’ll be totally alone, and we can explore your issues.”“No, I’m not going anywhere with you.”“It’s simple, Maya. You’ll come with me back home, or I’ll be escorting you home, telling
Cupping her ass, he gripped the back of her head, holding her in place to take his kiss.He broke the kiss first, going down her neck. Tearing the costume from her body, he exposed one full, rounded red nipple. Biting down into the harsh bud, he heard her scream. The scent of her need wasn’t dulled
Maya kept mixing the potatoes even afier she heard Zion enter the house.She had fucked up, and she hadn’t been given the chance to apologize. There was only so much shouting she could endure, so she’d learned to stay out of his way. She tried not to dwell on the ache of being shut out completely.
