Kaylee's P.O.V.

"She was quite a character," I said as Kate stormed out of the room. I knew she would hear me. I wanted her to. With her wolf, she would probably be able to hear everything I said until she left the building. She knew very well what she was doing when she came in here talking to me like I was beneath her. Her disgust and disregard toward me were plain as day.

"Yes, dear. That, she is." Parker's mother said with a chuckle as she patted my knee.

The sound of a door slamming made me purse my lips together to hold in a laugh, as I knew Kate had heard her comment on her way out of the infirmary.

"I take it there is a story there?" I asked as I looked up at Parker.

His cheeks turned pink, and I stared at him in fascination. How could a man so large and intimidating be blushing? Was he blushing because of his past with Kate or because he was embarrassed that I was the one asking about it?

"I really wish there wasn't." His large hand moved up to rub the back of his neck as he grimaced. "Would you be willing to get to know me before I tell you that story?"

I tilted my head where it lay back on the pillow, watching the way his eyes looked pained as if he were begging me to say yes. My stomach tightened as I realized it would be bad. But, it didn't matter. He saved my life, so I owed it to him to at least hear him out.

My mother had taught me enough about our world that I understood the unnatural pull to the man next to me was more than attraction. I was his mate, and I would be damned if I didn't get to know the man the moon goddess thought was right for me.

Every species had soulmates. Vampires, werewolves, fae, witches, and even humans. Everyone had someone that was meant for them. My mother had told me stories of mates and how beautiful it was to have someone out there whose soul complimented the other person's. She had been searching for hers her entire life, waiting for the fairytale love story that she heard so much about.

She even fell in love once, thinking that the man sweeping her off her feet was her mate, but then he walked away. He found his true mate and never contacted her again. That was how I came to be.

I don't know really anything about him. My mother refused to talk about my father, but even with the depression he sent her into, she said she wasn't mad at him for being with his true mate.

However, I saw first-hand the pain she felt whenever I brought him up in front of her. No one deserved that kind of pain.

I glanced up at the deep brown eyes burning into my soul, unable to stop the nod of agreement as my head moved up and down. Parker's face lit up, the sinfully sexy smile sending butterflies into my stomach.

"Thank you," He whispered as he leaned forward and placed a gentle kiss on my cheek. "I promise to earn you and will be good to you."

"Let's start by getting to know each other." I choked out, feeling the warmth radiating up my chest, neck, and onto my cheeks. My eyes pulled away from him as I tried to regain my composure only to blush further when my eyes met his mother's. She watched on with a warm smile.

"I can live with that." He whispered.

When I glanced up again, she sent me a wink before walking around the bed and toward the door. "I'll give you two some privacy."

I almost laughed at the idea. There was no way we would have privacy in this building. Not when everyone besides me had super hearing. "Thank you…"

She smiled further as I trailed off, waiting for her name. "My kids call me Ma or Mom." With a wink, she was out the door. The sound of her amused laughter filled the room behind her.

"Ma!" Parker groaned, clearly embarrassed. His hand tightened on mine a small amount as he glared at the empty doorway. I stared at his fingers, admiring the way they wrapped around my hand so perfectly. It was concerning to me that I was not able to see anything with my gift when I touched him. Prior to being kidnapped and drugged, any contact with someone would instantly trigger a vision or even something as small as a feeling.

With him, there was nothing. For a moment, I wished I could call his mother back into the room so I could ask her to touch my skin instead of just my blanket-covered knee. That way, I would know if I still had my gift. It appeared that would just have to wait.

"What's the verdict, doc?" I asked Parker jokingly. My eyes narrowed when a mischievous smirk graced his lips. "Can I get out of here, or what? Believe it or not, but I hate hospitals."

His eyes seemed to darken from their deep brown to a pitch-black, and his jaw tightened at my statement. He tried not to let it show as he flashed his teeth in a charming grin. "Baby, we will have plenty of time to role play later, if that's what you're into."

My jaw dropped, and I let out a surprised laugh as I sat up in the bed, letting the blanket fall around my hips. I wanted to get out of the bed and stretch my limbs, but that would require letting go of his hand, and I wasn't quite ready to do that. "Oh, I'm going to have my hands full with you, aren't I?"

He wiggled his eyes brows, his tongue peeking out just enough to innocently lick his lips as if it were instinct. I watched entranced at the small movement before the cocky look on his face brought me back to the present.

"Yeah, yeah. I heard it as I said it. I'm sure you're huge! Let's just get out of this awful place, you goof."

I am curious to see how this plays out with Jack, as he and Kate were not really fleshed out fully in Gabriel and Olivia’s story.

  • The Alpha's Girl Series   Epilogue

    Five Months Later Kaylee's P.O.V. I let out a groan as I was thrown onto my back for the tenth time today. Parker had been so proud of how quickly I moved up through the training groups, learning how to fight and defend myself. It wasn't until I was up against him that I got to experience firsthand just how incredibly skilled and fluid Parker was. I knew that from other aspects of our relationship, but seeing him fight and sparring against him myself was a different level. 'You need to focus, love,' Parker taunted as he nipped at my butt playfully. I flinched, my wolf rolling back onto her stomach as I glared at him. Part of it wasn't even my fault. How was I supposed to not get distracted by my incredibly attractive mate touching me? 'Let's call it a day,' I said as I shook my fur free of the loose grass. My attempt to saunter up to him failed as my sore muscles made it appear more like a drunken stumble. Parker choked out a laugh before rubbing the side of his wolf up against me

  • The Alpha's Girl Series   Seventy-One

    Parker's P.O.V. She made me promise not to drug her again, and while I wasn't wanting to use it, I still had an injection tucked away in my pocket. Her mother was excited to see Kaylee's wolf, but it was obvious that her over-excitement was an attempt to hide her nerves and anxiety about the outcome of the change. Kaylee was a buddle of sore and delicate excitement as she bounced and stumbled into the forest earlier than she needed to. I followed behind her, my arms ready to catch her if she fell, but she would just dance out of reach and laugh before moving deeper into the trees and underbrush. "You know you're going to be a wolf and not a woodland fairy, right?" I laughed as she ran her hand across the trunk of a tree. "I know!" She glared back at me with an adorable smile. "But that's just it. I am going to be a wolf with you." I dashed forward, scooping her up into my arms as she giggled. "I can't wait to see you, run with you, and feel you. I bet you have the softest fur pos

    Parker's P.O.V. Over the next week, I watched as Kaylee did her best to stand strong and smile through the discomfort, but I could feel how much pain she was in as her body prepared for the full moon. It was so much worse than last time, and while I didn't like that she was hurting, I also took it as a good thing. To me, it was a sign that her wolf was stronger this time, that she was fighting to get out and ready to meet her human. It had taken less than a week for the Blood Moon Pack to come to their verdict under their pack laws, and all five wolves, the Luna included, were sentenced to death. We stood tall in the crowd as the wolves were brought forward and placed on their knees before their pack as their crimes were read. Alpha Blake had given Kaylee a quick squeeze on one shoulder before moving forward to stand in front of the accused. The smell of silver and wolfs-bane was strong in his system, and I admired that he was strong enough to dose himself to maintain control. A wo

  • The Alpha's Girl Series   Sixty-Nine

    Kaylee's P.O.V. The trip back to the Midnight Pack was bittersweet. Everyone was tense, knowing that Alpha Gabriel would not be happy that we all went on this rescue mission without his permission. Parker made me ride on his back the way home, and his excitement was pouring from his body. I held on tightly as he dipped and dodged around trees, bucking his back up higher than he needed to when he jumped over things. He was like a puppy playing. Every time I made a noise or tightened my grip on him, he would look back at me with his tongue hanging out to the side, and a large wolfish smile stretched across his face. It was adorable, and while my heart was hurting from having to be separated from my mother again after all this time, I couldn't help but smile back at him. Anytime I had seen his wolf out, he was angry or fighting someone. But this time, he was genuinely happy. I was half tempted to tell him to just keep going past our old pack and take me far into the sunset to live a p

  • The Alpha's Girl Series   Sixty-Eight

    Kaylee's P.O.V. The sound of a throat clearing had me reluctantly pulling away from Parker. My eyes glanced over the tensely reuniting Jack and Kate, who were standing close but weren't touching, to see my father standing in the doorway. His bright green eyes and dark brown hair were so similar to the younger man standing next to him, and I sighed in relief at the sight of Oliver standing tall and unharmed. "Don't worry about me. Just focus on your mate." Oliver said as he moved toward us and dropped into one of the leather chairs to my side with the back of one of his hands across his forehead. "Your little brother was just held captive, but whatever." I rolled my eyes with a smile as I shoved his shoulder with my hand. The burn marks were gone from his neck, and the bruising had disappeared from his face. There was a small twinkle in his eye as he sent a wink my way, and I knew he was happy that everything worked out. "Kaylee?" A small voice asked from the door, and my stomach ti
