CONNOR

‘We can take them!’ Miles snarled at his attackers, challenging them. They closed in on him, their eerie low growls chilling to hear. Circling, circling, until…

Determined, he shook the puma off his back, locking his canines into its throat before it even touched the ground. We didn’t care that they outnumbered us. Spurred on by the urgency to protect what was ours, Miles fought like a demon.

Fury and adrenaline coursed through our veins, blocking out everything else. Miles fought them o

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   Peanut Butter Ice Cream

    CassandraWhat the fuck! The entire night I worried about him while he was in there…Did he fuck her? Both of them? oh my God!The images kept flashing through my mind. Him, naked and erect. Regina and Natalia, clothes torn. My heart shattered.I ran, stumbling down the hall. Didn’t bother with the elevator. Took the stairs three at a time, nearly fell. Everything swam before my eyes.Connor shouted my name, but I kept on running until I burst through the fire exit. Outside, the cold air slapped me in the face. I took in deep gasps of the frigid air, holding onto the walls for support. How could he do this to us?“Cassie! There you are,” Ray caught up with me. “Take me home.” Anywhere would do. I thought about Neil. It was just a passing thought.Ray’s hands were on my shoulders, grounding me. “I’m sure there’s a reasonable…”“Don’t you dare cover for him!” I shoved Ray’s hands away. “I have nothing to say to him!” Ray’s face swam before me, and I blinked hard, refusing to cry.Ray’

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   They Came to Help

    ConnorThe screams, the intoxicating taste of their blood… I was drunk on all of it. I ripped through them like they were nothing but meat sacks. Felt no remorse, no human emotion except hunger. Insatiable, overpowering hunger.But now, sitting in the dark in the hotel room, sated but full of self-loathing, avoiding the man in the mirror. What would Cassie think of me now? I killed, no, I destroyed those men. I could argue that they were evil men, preying on the weak. But did that make me any better?My hands shook as I reached for my phone. I should call Cassie. Tell her where I am. I almost did. Changed my mind and placed the phone face down on the nightstand. She wouldn’t understand. She’d try to fix me. I don’t know if I could be fixed. Maybe Regina had the answer. What did I have to lose?***I spent a restless night on a bed that held faint scents of earlier occupants. Nightmares made me get up before dawn crept in at the window. Cassie would still be asleep. I pictured her lyin

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   Complications

    CassandraNeil. I had almost completely forgotten about him. That one stupid kiss was all it took to make me doubt everything. Well, not exactly everything. I loved Connor. Simple. Wasn’t it? But Neil had been there when I needed Connor. And where was my mate now? Trying his best to avoid me.Neil answered on the second ring.“Mel?” his deep voice droned in my ear, and it shouldn’t sound so good.‘You shouldn’t talk to him!’ Sage bared her teeth at me. I ignored her. It’s not like I’m cheating on Connor.I took a deep breath before I answered. “No, it’s me. Cassie.” Why was my heart beating so fast suddenly?Stunned silence on the other end for a few tense heartbeats.“Hey,” he said at last. “I’ve been trying to get a hold of you.” His breath hitched over the phone. “Did you… did you block my number?” he asked, and the slight hurt in his voice made me feel guilty despite myself.Sage grumbled disapprovingly, ‘It was the right thing to do. He’s not our mate.’I felt Mel’s eyes boring i

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   Coping

    ConnorThe city seemed louder, busier, and the smells overwhelming. I went to my office where there was less noise, less temptation.Shelly Rohas was back from maternity leave and back in her post as manager. She was one of my most capable employees and pack members. I was relieved to have her back. My business was running smoothly in her capable hands. We spent some time going over financials and orders before I left to inspect a few sites.Once again, my pack members didn’t disappoint me. They took pride in their work, and it showed. I would like to think my father would have been proud of how committed they were.After the explosion that nearly cost us everything, including injuring my father almost fatally, I had wanted to close the renovation business and venture into another field. But my pack helped rebuild Wolffe Renovations, and it would have been unfair to take it away from them. Satisfied that there were no problems to deal with, I could concentrate on my current dilemma.I

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   New Troubles and Old Friends

    CassandraIt felt like the worst hangover. Throbbing head, dry mouth, nausea. I couldn’t lift my head off the pillow. But it was worth a try. He said something stopped him from draining me. I bet my life it was Miles. If only Connor would just give it another go. Miles was in there, hiding or recovering.‘That was dangerous, what you did, Cassie,’ Sage sounded pissed off. ‘Connor is right. You should be more careful. Don’t you care about our pup?’“Don’t fucking preach to me right now, Sage. I feel like shit.” My head throbbed, and Connor’s teeth left marks on my shoulder that still burned. “I know you’re worried, but I can’t deal with this right now.”‘Yeah, we both do. I should have stopped you.’“I needed him, Sage.” Tears pricked my eyes. I cry so easily these days. Of course I wouldn’t want to hurt my child, and I felt some guilt. But this was Connor, the man I loved more than life. “And he needs us.”Sage retreated to the dark places in my mind and shut me out, but she couldn’t

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   Denial or Hope

    Reject her? It would be for the best, but I couldn’t bring myself to do it, knowing the pain it would cause both of us. I couldn’t put our pup at risk.“I can’t do that, Cassie,” I said, softening my tone. “But the longer I stay, the more difficult it would become for me to control this thirst for blood. What if I hurt Aiden or another pack member?”“You said something stopped you,” she continued as if she hadn’t heard me. “Maybe you should bite me again.”“Cassie, stop.” I gripped her arms and shook her once. “Listen to yourself! Do you have a death wish?” I wished I could shake the recklessness out of this stubborn woman. I was no longer the wolf she knew but something else, something much darker, and yet she couldn’t see it. She was in denial. I wished I could share in her optimism that somehow Miles had survived the transformation, but I didn’t.“No, I mean… think about it. It could be your wolf, Connor. He won’t let you hurt me,” she said as if it were obvious. Her face brightene

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   Destruction

    Cassandra“I can’t believe he’d told you, Luna Amelia, before discussing this with me.” Not only was I disappointed, but there was an ache inside. A feeling of betrayal that I wanted to push away, but it stayed.“Well, why wouldn’t he?” she said, nibbling on the sandwiches the cook had prepared. “A

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   Birthday with a Bang

    Connor“I must first find a birthday present for Cassie before we go to the office,” I looked over at Joel, who was in the back of the SUV. “Any ideas?”“Alpha Connor, I missed seventeen birthdays. I wouldn’t even know where to start or what to get her.” His gaze flitted to the back of Dad’s head.

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   Girl Talk

    CassandraOnly a few more days to go before my birthday and to say I was nervous would be a gross understatement. I was terrified. The more Sage tried to calm me down, the worse it got.I asked Henna and the girls over for a picnic at the back of the pack house. The cook had prepared a basket lunch

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   When You Love Someone

    ConnorDamn it to hell! I wanted to scream, but I couldn’t because Aiden was sleeping peacefully in his cot, sucking on his thumb. How could she do this to me? I can’t be away from her. Not now. Not ever. Did she not get it?She said she loved me. Why did loving her hurt so much then? I tucked the
