“Abigail! What are you doing here?” I cheered as I strode toward the pack house receptionist desk.
“Oh, I guess the regular lady needed to take some time off and Lucas suggested she have me take over while she’s gone. Gives me something to do, I suppose, other than worrying about Daniel.” She forced a smile.
“I meant more ‘here’ in the general sense. Where is Daniel?”
“Somewhere in Cerathe, digging for information to protect our daughter.” She sighed. “Orders went out to everyone, the king has even sent medics after her. Can you believe that? I’m no assassin, but for goddess sake, even I know

DanielI grabbed the woman around her waist, clamping my hand over her mouth as I pulled her into the darkened recess. “Mildred, it’s me, don’t scream.” I whispered as I released her. She whirled around to face me; her eyes wide with fear as she slapped me on the shoulder. “Why did you do that, Daniel?” She gasped. “You scared the daylights out of me. “I need your help. I was hoping you being a priestess meant you had access to information about the palace that you wouldn’t mind sharing with me for old time’s sake.” I grinned at her. “Daniel,

FenrickMaggie had been smart. She hadn’t boarded another bus out of Millstone, nor had she checked her and the kids into a hotel. She had purchased an old clunker from one of the small car lots in town, paying cash. The car was too old to have an onboard GPS tracking system. If I hadn’t been worried about the reaction I would receive at not being able to locate her, I’d have been impressed. “I could just run myself.” I chuckled, tossing my duffle into the back of my rental. “If I never go back, the Alpha will never know I failed.” The ringing of my cellphone interrupted the c

Selene“Our conversation about your work isn’t over.” Lucas cautioned me as he rose from the table.“You’re going to have to accept that I am an assassin, and I will always be one. Your sudden male ego bullshit won’t change that. I will never be the she-wolf that plans parties and sits at home with the children. If I were, you would be dead already.” I drawled, staring him down as I spoke.“It’s not male ego. My mate was almost blown to bits. I will never be ok with almost losing you for the second time.” He said, pulling out the puppy dog eyes.“Low blow, Alpha.” I scoffed. “I will promise to do my best not to get blown to pieces, but you have to back off and let me do what I’m good at. Speaking of what I’m good at, how do you want to deal with Celia and Alpha Tyson?”“The Alpha should be at the hotel where the rest of them are staying. I’m waiting

Lucas“This is a stupid plan.” Zane said as we sped toward the hotel. “If he wins, everything we’ve done to protect this pack ends up being for nothing.”“He won’t win.” I growled. “He may be almost ten years younger, but he hasn’t trained against you.”“I hope for your sake, you’re right. I wouldn’t be surprised if your mate manages to survive your dumbass just so she can bring you back and kill you herself if you lose.” Zane laughed, lightening the mood in the car.We parked in the hotel lot, the cars with the pack warriors filing in beside us. I made sure they knew the role they played; they were only there in case Tyson tried to run. If he accepted the challenge, they would serve as witnesses on the training field. It was the only way to ensure there were no doubts that a challenge had been won fair and square. The receptionist gave me Tyson’s room number and we

Zane“Looks like you’re with me, orders from the boss.” I grumbled as I opened the cell door.Lucas had ordered me to release the man and take him along to the prison to interrogate Alpha Lauren’s prisoner. With EJ’s escape, it was more important than ever that we used every resource we had to figure out who the spy in Dark Moon pack was.“I’m not the bad guy here man.” He smiled as he stepped out of his cell. “I told your alpha, the moment EJ slipped and said he tried to kill Selene, my allegiance changed.”“You’re still an assassin. Just because Lucas trusts you to keep your word, doesn’t mean I do.”Marcus filled the silence in the car as we drove to the prison. For someone who was meant to deal in secrets and death, he had a lot to say. I wasn’t happy to be working with him. Whatever he had told Lucas didn’t matter to me, I still viewed him as a potential th

Selene Lucas’s hands roamed my body, his erection pressing into my backside as we moved to enter the house. “Bath first.” I ordered, freeing myself from his grasp. I laughed as he pouted in response to my words. Rolling my eyes, I dragged him by the hand to the bathroom. “You smell like sweat, blood, and Tyson.” I said, scrunching my nose. “I’d prefer not to smell another man while fucking my mate. Now strip.” “Yes ma’am.” He chuckled, removing his pants and shoes as I filled the tub. He had left his tattered shirt behind on the training field, returning home in only his pants and shoes. The few places Tyson had managed to slash him had alre

Lucas My mind worked over what Tyson has said on the training field as I watched my mate sleeping peacefully beside me. I wanted to believe he was lying, just trying to make me lose focus to gain the upper hand, but I couldn’t shake his words. Fenrick had lost all signs of Maggie in a small town called Millstone. He believed she had purchased a car that couldn’t be tracked before leaving the place. I wanted to believe him, but she was carrying my child and I couldn’t risk her being in the King’s clutches. Kissing Selene’s sleeping face, I slipped free of her arms and the bed. I had to know for sure whether Jonas had Maggie or not. The only way to find out was to confront him myself. I would link Zane once I was across the border and well on my way. I couldn’t risk him trying to

Selene “Where the fuck is he, Zane?” I demanded, barging into the Beta’s office. Lucas hadn’t answered his office or cell phones, leading me to check for him at the pack house. Instead of finding my mate, I found Zane. The guilty look on his face made it clear that he knew something about my mate’s whereabouts. “He’s in Cerathe.” “And you didn’t try to stop him? Are you insane?” I screeched. “You just let your Alpha waltz into the arms of the enemy.” “I swear, I didn’t know until it was too late.” Zane retorted,
