LOGIN“Touch her and you're dead.” His voice cut through the cold, lonely night. Hazel, the daughter of a traitor of Golden Dawn was accused of murdering her mate, and is seen as an outcast, bullied by her pack members for a crime she didn't commit; her world couldn't get any worse. But when the Blood Moon Ball is held for the returning Alpha, Hazel is given a second chance. She is mated to the feared and ruthless Alpha; Xavier Dyon– a man with no interest in the mating bond, but something about Hazel just makes him think otherwise.
View MoreXavier POVThe weight of the decision pressed down on my shoulders like a physical burden. My wolf paced restlessly, torn between protecting our mate and claiming the power that was rightfully hers without her getting hurt. "There is another way," Irina's words cut through the silence of my office. "The power can be consumed by an Alpha wolf."I sat up, alerted at her words, my wolf already rising to the surface. "Explain what you mean by that" I demanded, not as a request but as a command. "The power trapped in this locket..." she held up the silver pendant, its surface sparkling in the faint light. "It can be transferred to an Alpha through another ritual. The Alpha who absorbs its powers would become..." she hesitated, proceeding with caution. "Unstoppable."The thought sent a chill down my spine. An Alpha with the force of four powers combined-- the idea was both enticing and startling."But, that would kill her, wouldn't it?" I asked, already knowing the response.Irina nodded
Xavier POVI watched as Irina's hands trembled when she picked up the locket again and clutched it in-between her hands. She looked as if she had been struck by lightning. I'd seen the witch handle cursed objects and ancient artifacts without flinching, but now her face had gone pale, and something I'd never seen before flickered in her eyes – fear.The terror written all over her face is proof that she felt it too--the locket is not ordinary--it emits power."This locket..." she whispered, her voice trembling as she opened her now reddened palm to reveal the locket. "The power trapped inside it is more than anything I've ever encountered in all my years."I bit back my impatience, my wolf stirring restlessly inside me. "I already know that, I didn't call you here to state the obvious. I need answers!" I demanded. Whatever is happening seems to be caused by this little silver locket and I need to know why.I crossed my arms and stared at Irina as she closed her eyes and chanted unde
Xavier POV.The space between us was filled with tension as I tried in vain to focus on working on the heaps of documents scattered across my desk. But I couldn't concentrate with Hazel curled up on my office couch. Her silver hair framed her small face. And when she absent-mindedly bit her lower lip, my wolf nearly lost it. I remembered how soft her lips felt against mine. I could hardly control the urge to pull her into my arms and kiss her again. I cursed under my breath as I flipped over documents on my desk and tried to get busy. My wolf was relentless, demanding I claim her, mark her, make her ours. But the rational part of my brain knew better – we had a crisis on our hands. There's a missing dead body, strange symbols, and now this mysterious locket. But try telling that to my wolf.I still couldn't believe that I actually suggested she come and stay in my room. I hadn't meant to but the word had slipped out before I could stop it. I was driven by the need to protect her a
Hazel's POV The prison reeked of blood, its metallic stench that filled the air made my stomach churn as we all stood in the prison cell and stared at the empty space before us. “What the hell is this?” Xavier growled, his eyes scanning the empty ground where the body of the dead intruder must have been minutes ago but now contains nothing but dark bloodstains.“I swear, Alpha, he was here, I left his body here, dead and cold.” Kael stammered, his voice already shaky. “Then where the hell is he?” Alpha Xavier growled, glaring at Kael whose face had gone pale with shock.“I don't understand, I left him here a while ago, dead and cold. I saw the markings on his body. A crescent moon with three stars branded on his chest. It was an unusual symbol which I thought you would want to see" Kael said, swinging the torch around the cell, looking around again but the only thing left on the floor was blood stains. I stood terrified, my wolf stirred uneasily within me. Something was very wro
