DAMIEN

The command was still inside my head when the knock came again.

If anyone takes her from you, kill them.

I had heard my wolf before, through rage, hunger, blood, pain, but never with that kind of certainty, and I hated the words because some part of me had already decided they were right.

Ava was still trapped against me, staring at the blood on my hand as if she could not understand how something so small had made such a fucking mess.

Neither could I.

The knife remained buried in my si

  • His Human Mate, His Greatest Threat   Chapter 300

    AVA“Mommy?”Aurora's sleepy voice came from upstairs again, followed by the faint sound of little feet moving across the floor. I lifted my head from Damien's chest, and he immediately turned towards the staircase, his attention sharpening in that familiar way that made his wolf seem to wake before the rest of him.I pushed myself off the sofa.“Stay here, Damien, because I think our little princess has decided that bedtime is no longer acceptable without a personal appearance from her mother.”He watched me climb the stairs, then followed a few steps behind, his presence close enough that I could feel him without turning around. When I reached Aurora's bedroom, I found her standing in the doorway with her pink blanket dragging behind her, her hair tangled from sleep and her little face wearing the irritated expression she usually reserved for people who had disappointed her.“What happened, baby?” I asked, crouching in front of her.She rubbed one eye with her fist, then reached bot

  • His Human Mate, His Greatest Threat   Chapter 299

    AVAI led Damien downstairs, still holding his hand, although he kept looking at me as if he expected me to reveal some complicated plan involving security arrangements or another ridiculous surprise. I wasn't planning anything particularly dramatic, which was probably disappointing for a man who had spent centuries preparing for enemies, betrayals, and every possible disaster his imagination could produce.I wanted to sit with my husband.That was it.The sitting room was quiet when we entered, the toys Aurora had scattered earlier still lying across the rug, with one stuffed rabbit sitting upside down beneath the coffee table. I picked it up, placed it beside the other animals, and dropped onto the sofa while Damien loosened his shirt cuffs.He looked around the room before sitting beside me.“You're checking the windows again,” I said, watching his eyes move towards the garden. “Damien, unless somebody has developed the ability to climb through glass without breaking it, I think yo

  • His Human Mate, His Greatest Threat   Chapter 298

    AVAAurora had fallen asleep so completely that she didn't even complain when Damien shifted her in his arms, although I suspected she would have something to say about it in the morning if she discovered that we had carried her upstairs without asking permission. She had spent the entire evening ordering us around, and now she was hanging against her father's chest with one little arm wrapped around his neck, her hair scattered across his shoulder.I walked ahead, opening the bedroom door and switching on the small lamp beside her bed. Damien followed carefully, moving with the kind of attention he usually reserved for something dangerous, even though the only thing he was carrying was our sleepy daughter in her ridiculous pink pyjamas.“Put her down slowly, because if she wakes up and realizes you've moved her without permission, we'll probably have a royal investigation before breakfast,” I whispered.He gave me a look but lowered her onto the mattress, supporting her head until it

    DAMIEN“I love you, Ava.”I had whispered the words against her ear while she held our daughter between us, and I felt her fingers tighten around my waist before she turned her face towards mine. She looked at me with that familiar expression, the one that usually meant she was about to ruin a perfectly serious moment with some insulting remark, but she didn't speak immediately.Aurora was still demanding that we dance, although her movements had become slower, and every few seconds she leaned against one of us before remembering that she was supposed to be directing the entire performance. The music continued playing, the sitting room was a mess of toys and cushions, and my daughter had apparently decided that neither of her parents deserved a moment of peace.Ava kissed the corner of my mouth.“You've been unusually affectionate today, Damien, and I'm beginning to wonder whether somebody has secretly replaced you with a softer version who enjoys dancing and saying romantic things in

  • His Human Mate, His Greatest Threat   Chapter 296

    AVAAurora didn't wait for either of us to answer before grabbing my hand and pulling me away from the sofa, apparently deciding that being invited to dance was the same thing as receiving an official order from the Queen of the living room. Damien stood up more slowly, watching our daughter drag me towards the middle of the rug with an expression that suggested he would rather face an armed enemy than whatever ridiculous performance she had planned.“Daddy, you have to come properly because you're standing there looking like somebody has ordered you to attend a funeral, and this is supposed to be a happy dance with your family!”I looked over my shoulder at him, laughing as Aurora pulled both my hands.“She has a point, Damien, because you look like you're preparing to interrogate the music player instead of dancing with your wife and daughter.”He gave me that familiar dark look, the one that usually made other people reconsider whatever they were about to say, but I only smiled wid

  • His Human Mate, His Greatest Threat   Chapter 295

    AVAThe next morning, I woke up to an empty space beside me and the sound of somebody arguing with a very stubborn little girl somewhere down the hallway.I didn't even need to open my eyes to know who was losing that argument.“Daddy, you're not listening because I said the purple one is mine, and you keep trying to take it away from me even though I picked it before you came into the room!”Aurora's voice travelled through the bedroom door, followed by Damien's much lower reply, which I couldn't quite hear. Then came the unmistakable sound of something falling, followed by my daughter's delighted laughter.I pulled the blanket over my head, smiling into the pillow. Seven years ago, I would never have imagined waking up in a house where an immortal Alpha was being bullied over a purple toy by a little girl who still needed help tying her shoes. Life had a wicked sense of humour, apparently, because the same man who could make an entire pack go silent couldn't convince his daughter to
