ASH

“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I said tightly, hating how aware my body felt.

Annalise only smiled, almost like she had expected that answer.

I shuffled on my feet, gaze flicking away from her. Normally she would poke until I spilled whatever was on my mind, her silence only made my unease grow.

A wolf staggered toward us, brushing past me with the faint smell of alcohol before disappearing into Tenski’s shed.

Drunkness and despair. Safe to say this place hadn’t changed in the l

  • The Alphas Broken Mate   Chapter 70

    IRISThe last I expected after my uncertain announcement was Ryker laughing.He threw his head back, his sharp laughter echoing through my room.But the moment my confusion faded, annoyance took its place. “What’s so funny?”Ryker managed to settle down, wiping a single tear from his eye. “I’m sorry,” he said between breaths. “I don’t know how I can stay mad at you when you say absurd things just to get me to leave.”My annoyance doubled. “Excuse me?”He straightened, shoving his hand into his pocket with some kind of newfound confidence. “Your first heat did a number on you. I get it. But Ash is not your mate.”I gave him a strained smile. “And how exactly would you know that?”He held my gaze long enough to make my conviction waver“Think about it.” He said, taking a leisurely step forward. “You just went through something traumatic, Iris. Which is what probably triggered your heat in the first place.”My pulse tripped. That can’t be right. “And Ash is the first male you saw,” he c

  • The Alphas Broken Mate   Chapter 69

    IRISI was kidnapped and apparently dumped on the borders of the city of rogues. I should have been traumatized. I should have been more sensitive to the fact that kissing Ash had caused friction between the three of them… especially after Ryker. Then Kade.I hugged my pillow tighter, burying my face into it. But Ash was different. Elder Rain was convinced that it was strange that I went into heat when I didn’t have a mate.News flash. I didn’t tell a single soul. Not even Ash himself. Although I had a feeling he’d already known.The images of last night flashed in my head. I gladly let them. The way he kissed me like I was air and he was drowning. Even with the effect of my first heat, I could feel the fire in his touch. I wanted more. But more importantly,I finally found my mate.Twenty-two years I’d spent wondering if something was really wrong with me. Especially these past months that strange things have been happening to me. For once, I felt… normal.A smile crept on my lips b

    ASHThe sound of wind whipping past me was a dull blur. My paws dug into the earth as I pushed myself faster, cutting through the woods like a blade. My wolf picked up her scent. And almost stumbled over his own limbs trying to get to her. But the closer we got, the more I realized that something was wrong.Her scent.It was hers but sweeter. More visceral than usual. I unconsciously slowed, threading lightly. My wolf was growling and pushing to go to her but my own body had a different reaction.I shifted in a swift move, pushing my wolf into my chest so I could think clearly. But the closer I got, the more addictive her scent became.I shook my head so hard I was sure my brain rattled. “Focus on the mission, Ash.”The wind carried another wave of her scent. A low growl cut through the air and it took me some time to figure out that it was coming from me.I didn’t stop moving but I was alert, ignoring the way my claws elongated without my consent. A dull ache shot from my jaw straig

    ASHI kept my eyes locked on the herbs Annalise had given me, my hands grinding them into dust in a steady motion. And still, I couldn’t feel her staring a hole through the back of my head.I sighed, placing the pistol down with a thud. “Say what’s on your mind.”Her footsteps shuffled closer until she stood beside me, peeking at my expression like it was the most intriguing thing in the world.I was probably going to regret asking her that.“Your brows are knitted.” She stated.I finally turned to look at her. “What?”She gestured vaguely at my face. “You’ve been in a mood since you got here.”I gave her a flat look even though I was certain she’d already figured it out. “My friend has been missing for three days. Kade can’t focus until we get her back.”She chuckled knowingly. “Yeah yeah yeah. Save the damsel. Restore order.” She leaned in with a sly smile. “Still doesn’t explain why you’ve growling under your breath.”My spine stiffened. Her smile grew, then her gaze flicked to the

    IRISA cool wave of wind brushed over my skin, making me hug myself tighter. This was nice. A long, peaceful rest for-Birds chirped somewhere nearby.My eyes flew open.I shot upright, fingers digging into dirt. Trees surrounded me. Pine. Endless woods. The harsh sunlight burned my eyes when I looked up.“Ughhh…” my voice was groggy, my throat burning from thirst. I shuffled myself off the ground even as my limbs felt like lead. Every muscle in my body ached, my head wouldn’t stop throbbing. Where was I?I let my gaze wander the woods. Nothing familiar.My pulse tripped. Last thing I remembered was Alex, completing his task. Then nothing. I forced my eyes close, thrumming my temples as I tried to remember anything else.Nothing.“Shit.” I looked around. “Where the hell am I?”I pushed my feet despite the ache, trying not to give my attention to the growing unease in my gut. Was I still in the human world?My footsteps faltered as my heartbeat dropped.How would I get home if that w

  • The Alphas Broken Mate   Chapter 65

    RYKERThe stench of stale blood and rotten flesh clung to me like a second skin. My ears rang. The sun burned hotter than it was supposed to.Two days.We’d been searching for two days. We’d killed hybrids at every stop. I lost count. And still, no Iris.My wolf slammed against the cage of my chest. I felt helpless. Worse than hopeless. The more packs we stormed, the more territories we combed through, the less faith I had that Iris was still here.Then a thought struck me. I shook my head so hard my brain rattled. It wasn’t possible. But what if-“What if Iris isn’t in any werewolf territories?” I said aloud.Ash paused, his tired eyes shifting to me. “There are still a few places we haven’t checked.”I ran a hand through my damp hair and released a hard breath. “Don’t you think we would have found her already?”Ash shrugged like his shoulders weighed a ton. “We won’t know until we look.”“If you cared,” I seethed under my breath, rising. “You’d be finding us a way to get to- oh I do

    IRIS“Iris,” Mr Rowan said, his voice roughened by lack of use.We all mourned Katrina in our own way. I hadn’t seen Camille for days. She was likely holed up in a cave somewhere, trapped in her wolf form so she wouldn’t have to feel the crushing weight of loss. For their dad, it was alcohol.And m

    IRISEven after decades of growing up around him, I didn't know a single thing about Ash. Except that people found him terrifying.I never understood why.“Are you alright?” His warm hands still lingering on my arm.Say something.“Yeah, I just-wasn’t looking,” I said, forcing out a small, awkwar

    IRISThe morning after Katrina’s funeral was worse than the day before. Camille had somehow convinced me to have breakfast with the rest of the pack, trying to get everything back to normal… but nothing was, not anymore.“Elder Rain would be furious if she catches you toying with her cooking like

    RYKERI stood at the doorway, watching as Iris unraveled.It took a second for her composure to slip back into place, and with it, her rage.The look in her eyes felt like a thousand silver knives were being fired at my chest. I hated it but still, I did what I’d always done. Let my mask slip into
