EJ
“Hello cousin!” Ava smiled, linking her arm through mine. “Are you here to see my father?”
“He sent me a summons.” I replied flatly.
“Daddy is in quite the mood today.” She whispered conspiratorially. “Something about the men not following orders.”

The Assassin's Mate Chapter 29
Selene The words had barely left Landon’s lips when we heard Stephanie’s voice floating toward the doorway. “Miss! You can’t go up there. That is my personal residence!” She called out as footsteps began to sound on the steps. “It’s off limits to patients!”&nb

Lucas My hands shook as I stared at the door in disbelief. Even through the hard wood, I could smell the familiar scent of apples and cinnamon. If it hadn’t been for the shattering sound of dishware breaking in the kitchen, I would have been certain my imagination was playing tricks on me. Maggie had heard me call out; my voice having mingled with Hades’ own when we uttered the word mate. My heart pounded in my chest, the sound covering the movement behind me. “You should open the door.” Maggie whispered, startling me. “There has never been a recorded incident of second chance ma

SeleneNeed burned between us like a low flame. I slipped my hand from Lucas’s hair down to his jeans and expertly undid the button. His own hands worked to steady me as he slid my pants down. My injuries made it difficult to keep my balance as I stepped from them, but Lucas held my hips firmly, keeping me pinned against the wall as I did. His hard cock sprang forth as he slid his own jeans below his hips before lifting me to wrap my legs around his waist. There was no foreplay, only the heat that consumed us, as he thrust deeply into my slick sex. I bit my lip, struggling to contain my moans as he pounded into me, primal need consuming us both.&nb

LucasI watched Selene and Rory as they left the house. My life had become immensely more complicated in just a few hours. Maggie had remained mostly silent, only really speaking to correct Annabelle when she made a rude comment about Selene. “Lucas.” Maggie started, her voice soft and low. “I think it’s time for the children and I to accept your offer of our own home. I can’t begin to repay your hospitality and friendship, but with your mate here now. Well, it wouldn’t be proper for us to continue to stay.” “Maggie, you really don’t have to leave. I love having

Zane arrived shortly after the kids left for school the next morning, preventing me from having a moment alone to speak with Maggie. We settled into my office so I could fill him in on the purpose of the meeting before Selene arrived. “So, you’re telling me, your dead mate is alive again and you’re re-mated?” He asked. “That’s pretty wild man.” “Tell me about it. She said she has information about the King and some major threat he poses to all of us.”&nbs

Rory“You’re coming with me to the pack hospital whether you want to or not.” I ordered. “We really do need to use the equipment there to see how well you’re actually healing.” “Alistair and I really need to make a game plan for tomorrow.” Selene whined. “You have all day for that. The tests won’t take more than a couple hours tops. Do you want to be able to shift again or have you just given up?”&
The Assassin's Mate Chapter 35
I knew Selene would be worried when I didn’t return to Alistair’s apartment, but I hadn’t thought to get his number from the nurses before I left the hospital with my mate. I was over the moon, watching her as she escorted Maggie and the children back to the Alpha’s home. Victoria radiated power and I couldn’t have asked for better in a mate.“Would you like to grab some dinner?” She asked, turning to face me once her charges were safely inside.“I’d love that.”“There’s this great little pizza place on main. It’s a bit of a walk though.” She mused.“Any time spent with you is worth it. I don’t care if you wanted to walk all the way to a restaurant in Cerathe.” I squealed, taking her hand in mine.We chatted as we walked, the time passing easily between us. Victoria was a pack warrior. The first and only female to become one. She went by Vic becaus
The Assassin's Mate Chapter 36
SeleneI had expected to wake feeling exhausted after sitting up so late waiting for Rory to return. Instead, I felt like I had energy I hadn’t experienced since before EJ’s attempt on my life. Whatever was in the injection Rory had given me the day before was a miracle drug. I skipped into the small kitchen, accepting a steaming cup of coffee from Alistair. He had woken me moments before with the promise of the liquid ambrosia I desperately craved. “No cane, I see”. He smiled as he turned back to the pot to poor his own cup. “I’ll be back to peak performance in no time old man.” Alistair leaned against the counter, looking me over as he considered my words.&nbs
