Connor

I was up before dawn, having spent a restless night thinking about Cassie and what I planned to do. She needed to be accepted into the pack as soon as possible. Maybe even tonight. Of course, there had to be a ceremony, as was our custom, and a party afterward. I only wished it could be our union ceremony. But all in good time.

After training, I would give orders to my chefs to prepare a feast for the night. Joel, my gamma Eric and his mate will see to the preparations needed for the ceremony. The elders would need to be present as well. I wasn’t looking forward to that, particularly. But it was necessary.

Miles worried they would object to her being accepted because of Agnes.

“Why the hell would they, Miles? She’s a werewolf.” His constant worrying was exhausting.

‘She’s half human, Connor. That could be grounds for objections, especially if you tell them she’s our mate.’

“Well, that’s why we wait until she has her first turn. So, stop worrying about it!” Gods, he was just loo

    AGNESI was alone in the house, or so I thought, when I went downstairs to make some coffee and a bite to eat. But what I found was Joel, busy making breakfast. He was shirtless. I stood in the doorway, watching the muscles in his back ripple underneath his bronzed skin as he whisked eggs into a bowl. I shouldn’t have stared, but I couldn’t help it. He was even more handsome than he was eighteen years ago. Only now his body had filled out, was no longer that of a boy. He was all lean, hard muscle, broad shoulders and narrow hips. His fiery hair was long and curled on his shoulders. I never thought I'd be into a guy with a beard, especially one as wild as his, but it suited him. “Are you going to stand there gawking at me the whole day or are you going to give me a hand?” he drawled without turning around.How did he know…? Of course. Werewolf senses. “I wasn’t gawking.” My face felt like it was on fire.“Whatever you say.” He turned, and I saw a long scar marring the skin on the l

    Cassandra“Lift your hands, Cassie. Protect your vulnerable parts.” Sam stood close behind me, helping me learn the proper fighting stances and blocks. Were all of them so good-looking? I have not seen a single unattractive person here. It was very distracting being surrounded by powerfully sculpted bodies.“Why do you do it?” I asked Sam. “Train to fight? Connor told me everyone must, but I don’t get it.” It seemed peaceful there being surrounded by nature. Were they expecting trouble?“Connor, is it?” he chuckled like I had said something inappropriate. “Well, honey, we live in a dangerous world. Didn’t Alpha Connor explain to you what we’re up against?” he stressed the word alpha.“I grew up in the city. Of course I know.” My thoughts immediately went to Frank and the people he associated with. They were a different breed of wolves. Ones with guns.“This is not the city, sweetness.” Sam corrected my stance. “Put your weight on your back leg. It makes it harder for me to do this…” h

    I followed Henna down a steep slope to the creek. We walked along the bank near the water bubbling over rocks and debris.“Careful, the ground is mossy and slippery as snot.” Henna grabbed hold of my arm when I stumbled against her.We hadn't gone far when I heard voices and laughter on the breeze. There were five of them, two girls and three boys playing around in the rushing water. Their ages ranged between sixteen and eighteen, if my estimations were correct.“Hey, guys! This is Cassandra. The new girl.” Henna called out to them.“Oh, is she Beta Joel’s daughter?” the girl flicked her wet hair out of her face and waved at me. “You’re all everyone’s talking about.”The others climbed onto the bank and regarded me with open curiosity. The curiosity was mutual. They looked so ordinary; just some teens having fun. Could they really be werewolves?“I didn’t realize I would be the topic of so much interest.” I said with a grin.“Yeah,” a tall, blonde boy walked up to me, water glistening

    ConnorBy the Gods, she was pushing my boundaries. If only she knew how much effort it took for me to leave her there at Joel’s house, when all I wanted to do was take her to my room and ravage her.‘Ravage her?” Miles snorted in my head. Those were not the words you were thinking at all. Sounded more like f…’“Shut up wolf.” I had to get her out of my head so I could get my work done. Miles wasn’t helping at all. He kept sending me images of her in that skimpy outfit and of her sparring with Sam. Of course, she knew what it was doing to me, seeing her being touched by another male. The little tease. I ought to…I stomped into my bathroom. What I needed was an ice-cold shower. She had wanted me; I smelled her arousal, the damp scent between those shapely legs when I pressed her against the tree.“Fuck!” I slapped my hand against the shower wall, cracking a few tiles. The cold water assaulted my body, but it only intensified the heat in my balls. I craved release and was just about to

    CassandraBefore I blacked out, my last thought was how unfair life was. Dying a virgin after meeting the man of my dreams. I would have laughed at the irony if I weren’t so terrified.It was only when I heard Joel’s voice that I realized I was still alive and in Connor’s arms. Connor had saved me. I had a second chance! Pretending to be out of it, I snuggled into his muscular arms. Safe. I wanted to stay right there.If this was the danger that lurked here in this place, I would rather take my chances in the city. How could a person fight against such monstrous things? What were they, anyway? They looked like they had rabies or something: Cujo on steroids. Only they weren’t dogs.Then I heard Joel say, “We’ve completed the mating,” and my ears burned. How could I look him and Agnes in the eyes after what I heard? Will they be going at it every night? Hell, it was in the middle of the day, and they were screwing each other’s brains out.Oh, God! Now I have that mental picture stuck in

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   Acceptance

    ConnorThe rogue attack created a buzz among the pack members. I felt their restless energy surging through the collective mind. It was good. We should never let our guard down. Just because peace reigned between the various packs didn’t mean it would last forever. Peace was a very fragile thing in our world. The slightest confrontation could set off a full-scale war. As packs grew in number, the need for territory increased, and our territory was significant, and the game was bountiful. My pack wasn’t one of the largest, but what we lacked in numbers, we made up for in strength.More pack members arrived while the omegas prepared the tables for the feast. The mouthwatering aroma of various dishes teased the senses. By the looks of it, my cooks had outdone themselves. There was more than enough food. I watched as a group of pups chased each other around the tables, squealing with laughter, and I wondered what our pups would look like. I imagined they would inherit Cassie’s stubbornnes

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   A Taste

    CassandraThere was an infernal buzzing in my mind that wouldn’t go away. I imagined that was what a hangover would feel like, even though I had never experienced one.Connor led me away to sit with Agnes and Joel. I only let him because I still couldn’t trust my legs. If I weren’t starving, I would have gone straight to bed.“You look pale, Cassie. Here, have some water.” Agnes held a glass to my lips, and I took it from her.“I’m fine, Mom,” I said, somewhat irritated, but gulped the water down, anyway. I still tasted Connor’s blood in my mouth and found it strangely sweet. It wasn’t as gross as I thought it would be. Who does that anyway? They’re not vampires.Joel leaned toward me. “It will get better. You will learn how to tune most of it out. Focus on someone you want to speak to. It’s like a phone connection.”Wow. That was the most words he’d spoken to me since he tried to give me the rundown on werewolves.Connor returned with plates stacked with food and took his place next

    My wolf? Now? I was just about to have the best make-out session with Connor, and now she showed up.“You’ve got to be kidding me…”“This is wonderful. This is great news, Cassie.” He was grinning like a fool and I was just… damn!“But I can’t,” I moaned. “This is… I don’t know what I’m supposed to do.”Connor shook me by the shoulders. “Just let her speak to you.”As if that was so easy. This was insane. I shook him off and stomped to the living room and collapsed onto the couch. I’ve heard her voice before, but that was when I thought I was losing it and I ignored it…her. Now there was just silence. Right. Now you decide to shut up.Connor came over and sat next to me. “Cassie, just try to let her through. Look at me. Miles will help her.”He cupped my face, and I leaned into his palm, staring into his eyes. They changed from blue to red instantly.“You’re not going to shift, are you?” Panic flared in my chest. I was still not used to see him in wolf form.“No, I’m letting Miles cal

    Connor“Maybe Lyon fled the state,” Joel offered his opinion. “He probably heard you escaped and knowing we would come after him, he fled.”I didn’t think so. “There’s no way news of Rossi’s death reached him this fast, Joel. No, he’s waiting until we drop our defenses and then strike.”Eric, Joel and I were in my office discussing further strategies. So far, nothing has happened. We haven’t been attacked, but I still felt uneasy. I didn’t want the females and elderly out of the bunker before I was sure there was no danger. I’ve sent out my best trackers to search for the shifter and his pack. Did he even have a pack? I didn’t have enough information on them and that was biting me in the ass. If my father were here, he would be disappointed. Know your enemy. That was the first rule of war.This was all my fault. I had allowed the mate bond to distract me, among other things. My pride got in the way. I might as well be honest with myself. I wanted to prove I didn’t need outside help t

    CassandraI must have been in shock, or maybe I still was. Connor's act of ripping that awful man's dick off as if it were nothing forever seared itself into my brain. The look on Connor’s face – it was like looking at a different person. Not a person, a demon.‘He deserved it,’ Sage reminded me, her voice harsh.I sat quietly next to Connor at the back of the SUV, letting him hold me, my mind numb.It wasn't until we were driving away, watching that place burn, that Frank even crossed my mind. Where was Agnes?I clutched Connor’s arm in a panic. “Connor! My mother! Where is she? Where’s Frank? We must find them. They…” My chest felt tight, couldn’t get enough oxygen in my lungs. I gasped, my vision blurring.Connor pulled me onto his lap, pressing my head against his shoulder. “Cassie, breathe. Your mother is safe. She’s safe.” He kept repeating those words until it got through to my brain. “She’s with Joel.”“What about Frank? Is he dead?” I hoped not, because I wanted to be the one

  • The Alpha of Wolf Creek   The Yellow Dress

    ConnorTwo men with their firearms drawn came running around the corner of the old warehouse when they heard the SUV pull in. Simultaneously, Cassie’s petrified screams pierced the stillness of the morning, and my soul almost left my body.Miles took control, fueled by Cassie’s urgent cries, ignoring the shouts and chaos around us as I let my warriors handle the men. Nothing could keep us from our mate. No doors, no men with guns. Miles burst through the steel doors as if they didn’t exist.Our eyes took in everything at once. Cassie lay on top of a crate, her yellow dress torn, wrist and ankles bound. Helpless and naked. The sight was like a knife twisting in my gut. There was a man behind her, pants down at his feet, his erect cock in hand.“What the fuck…” He stared at Miles with open-mouthed disbelief.Miles lowered his head, red eyes fixed on the man. The rumbling growl started deep down in his belly and grew in intensity as he padded towards him.‘I will rip that thing off.’ Mil

    CassandraAll this time I held onto the hope that maybe Sage was right, Connor would come to save us. But now even that slight hope was fading, and I feel fear tightening its steely fingers around my mind. Sage stayed quiet as well, and her silence scared me even more.I didn’t trust Frank. When he took Agnes, I knew that glint in his eyes. He was going to hurt her. I just knew. And she was terrified. I smelled it, and it was nauseating. What if he killed her? I got increasingly scared as time went on.No, no, he wouldn’t. I tried to convince myself that Frank was much too much of a narcissist. He valued his own life more than anything, and he needed to bring that money back to his criminal boss. Our only hope was that the pack would come to save us. Yes, yes, I held onto that sliver of hope. It was only a matter of time. Right?Alone with four horrible men that discussed me like I was their next meal, I sat huddled in a corner, my hands and feet bound with steel wire they found lying

    ConnorEver since we left Lyon’s place, Joel acted differently. He insisted on driving, but his hands trembled on the steering, his face set in stone, keeping his gaze fixed on the road. He didn’t answer me when I asked him what the matter was, but it seemed as if he were in pain.The gate swung open as we approached, and the guard at the gate acknowledged us briefly. “Ms. Agnes and some strangers are at your house, Beta Joel. I’ve alerted the gamma.”He had hardly finished talking when the SUV sped off, spraying dust and gravel all over. Neither of us spoke. The boy didn’t mention Cassie, and I was going out of my mind. So, this was why Joel said the pack needed us. But it wasn’t the pack. It was Agnes.There was a large man standing next to the parked car on the front lawn. When he saw us, he made a beeline for the house, but Joel was out of the SUV before you could blink.Joel grabbed the man and smashed him with overpowering force onto the car’s roof. Bones cracked along with the

    Agnes“Make yourself decent,” Frank said with contempt in his voice as he pulled his pants up. “Get in the car. How far is this place, anyway?” He was impatient, as if it were my fault we wasted time.Slowly, I slid down from the hood of the car and pulled my skirt down, fixing what I could of my blouse. What was left of my panties lay in the dirt, trampled, like Frank had trampled all over me my whole fucking life and I had let him. I let him do this to me, and that was the ugly truth.Strange, but while he was busy raping me, I felt a strange calm come over me. it was like an outer-body experience, watching from outside myself while he rammed his dick into me. It happened while I thought of Joel. Joel, the only man I’ve ever loved. And I knew that this was the last time Frank would ever do this to me again, because I was done being his punching bag.“It’s not that far anymore.” I said with a voice I didn’t recognize. “Just follow that road until you come to an iron gate.” I pointed

    “Joel?” I shouted through the mind link. “What the hell are you doing here?” He was so going to pay for not following my orders. I felt sick to my stomach, thinking Cassie was still in Lyon’s clutches.“No time to explain,” he growled. “I brought back-up.”Rossi tried to crawl away while I was busy arguing with Joel through our link, but I caught him and pinned him down. Miles let out a fierce roar that shook the building, and the sour stench of urine reached my nostrils. The man had pissed himself from fear.‘Let’s get this over with,’ Miles snarled. ‘We must find Cassie.’ He hovered over the sniveling man, ready to rip through his throat. But I stopped him. Rossi didn’t deserve a quick death.Seconds later, Joel and other unknown wolves burst through the double doors. The sounds of gunshots and anguished screams followed them.I glared at Joel, who bared his neck for me. “No use acting all submissive while you disobeyed my order, Beta.” He wasn't off the hook, and he needed to know

    ConnorOn the way to Alpha Harald’s pack, Joel told me how he deducted that Agnes’ husband had gotten hold of them. I listened in silence, holding back my anger at his disobedience. Although I had to confess, I was angrier at myself. I blamed myself for putting Cassie and my pack in the position we were in. Joel did his duty as was expected of him. I couldn’t fault him for it, and I should thank him for what he did, getting the alphas to help.We cleaned up at Alpha Harald’s, washing the stench of death off, and got ready for our trip back. As promised, Alpha Harald’s helicopter was waiting for us.“You can’t be sure, though. It could be someone else.” I told Joel as we were waiting for take-off. The blades of the helicopter whirred overhead, the noise overwhelming, and the interior cramped. But it was our best option. Time wasn’t on our side.“You’re making assumptions based on your emotions.” I knew he was hellbent on finding Frank and making him sign the divorce papers. But then th

    AgnesFrank wore an expression I knew too well. It meant nothing good to me. His fingers bore into my bicep like he wanted to leave permanent marks on my flesh. I knew he was possessive, and the mere mention of another man made him livid. Cassandra’s connection to the pack was our only hope. If we could just get near enough for her to call them through the mind link.But that hope faded like mist when he told his men, “Tie the little bitch up. If you don’t hear from me within the half hour, you can have fun.”The men snickered at his words, and I felt sick.“No, no,” I protested, my throat constricted with fear. “She must come with. Frank, please. Don’t leave her with them!” I was desperate, near hysterical. Not that it bothered Frank. He laughed at my feeble attempt to free myself from his grasp.“Hey, asshole!” Cassy shouted at Frank. “You need me to get into Wolf’s Creek!” She struggled with the man holding her, but it was in vain.Frank turned around to sneer at her. “I’m sure you
