MasukJamesI gritted my teeth and stumbled through the ghost road portal, pain ebbing away with every stiff step and the adrenaline of being closer to Gigi.“You okay?” Marcus asked. I nodded, but he looked at me with a small smirk. “Stiff upper lip, old friend, just remember she will be in your arms soon.” He was right; this pain would fade once I had her back. I could do this I was a warrior, and I had done far worse over the years. I just wished Jinx would stop napping like an oversized cat, so I was sure he had my back. Or maybe it was best that he was checked out for this because if he forced a shift in anger, he would have made shit of Dr. Tanner’s needlework over my operation site, and I would rather have my ass handed to me by a coyote than answer to him. The portal opened, and we stepped out onto a dry hillside, ducking behind a mound of rock. We waited after some hand signals for Eoin to do a quick recon. Ash crouched next to me and, in a voice only I could hear, spoke. “When thi
GigiI look around, and I instantly know I am somewhere strange. Everything has a strange ethereal glow and the moon seems closer, bathing the green meadow grass I am lying on in a weird bluish glow. I push to my feet and notice I am wearing a strange pale white gown.“Hello Gigi.” a voice called and I turned to see a girl standing to my right. I looked closer, and in the moonlight I could make out the small pixie-like stature and blonde hair.“Sage?” I called as the figure moved closer with a small smile, and as she drew closer, I could see that the curves of her face weren’t quite the same as Sage’s.“No, but you’re not far wrong, my daughter; bears a strong resemblance to me. My strongest footprint on the world I left behind.” She said with a hint of longing and sadness. “I’m Sasha.” She brushed all emotion away and held a hand out to me.“Am I dead?” I asked her, fearing the worst.“No, you’re not dead.” She smiled. “You are in between, a time and place where you can go with me an
JamesI listened closely as Eoin told me I was shot by a silver bullet in the woods by the lake. The El Nahual had sent owl shifters over the territory lines during the attack from the coyotes, and they had hidden in the trees waiting. “We still don’t know how owl shifters got Gigi across the border.” Eoin admitted as it struck me burned onto my brain, those red eyes that were the last thing I had seen before I lost conciousness to the silver poisioning.“It wasn’t just owls. I saw the red eyes of something bigger in the bush before I passed out. I am certain they weren’t bird eyes.” I shifted my weight on the hard hospital bed, holding my side as I sat up slowly. No one stopped me this time, but they all gave a nervous glance at how slow and pained the movement looked. But I managed to get myself upright.“You sure?” Ash asked breaking the nervous tension that was building in the room.“So a coyote?”I thought hard about those eyes. Was I certain they were coyote? No. I wasn’t, in a
JamesI can hear the assholes who call themselves my best friends whispering nearby like I haven’t got werewolf hearing. I guess I should be glad I can still hear and I am not dead. The scent of medical disinfectant, blood, and medication invades my nostrils and immediately I know I am in the pack hospital clinic.“He’s going to go ape shit.” Ash grunted in a hushed tone.“That’s why I told you to track her before he wakes.” Eoins voice bit back. He was annoyed, but the desperation and upset in his tone confused me. My brain was fogged over from whatever had happened, and I could feel Jinx, but he was distant in my mind, sleeping deep in the shadows.“Jinx is going to rip everyone apart, where the fuck is Ben? We are going to need his bear to sit on him.” I could hear the pause in Ash’s voice when he next spoke.“He had something surprising come up with Rori; he’ll be here soon.” “I don’t want to know what comes up belonging to Ben wih our sister Ash” Eoin sighed and I had to admit
JamesWhat the hell was happening right now? The sheer annoyance at how my friends had stitched me up had dissipated into a sexy primal hunt for my mate. She had bolted half naked from our house, and holy shit it had appealed to the predator Beta wolf in me. Jinx had lost his mind and burst forward, shoving me to the back of our consciousness. He didn’t force the shift, but he was in complete control as he hunted her. He sniffed he scent that hung in the air, mixed with her arousal; he was almost feral. I gave him this moment, reluctantly, because I knew he adored our mate just as much and his connection with her was just as important. However, as the wolf went wild, I was trying to remind him she was human and that she was fragile. When he caught up to her and forced her against his chest, roughly, I felt his unbridled need.“You’ll scare her, Jinx.” I pushed in our mind link. However, my panic died on my lips when the Mafia Princess began to taunt him. When she took our finger in
Chapter 31 Gigi. I should be mad at the abrupt pause in what was a sexually charged moment between me and James. However I couldn’t help but laugh at how the guys had decided to play out their revenge; it was so childish it was delicious. Grown men who still acted like they did in their teens was endearing, and to me it showed how true and solid their relationship was. I had learned from the girls already that James was what they lovingly called the shit-stirrer, and over the years had dished out plenty of stunts like the one that was now before me. I had no doubt that if we hadn’t been the target in this case, he would have been right in the middle of this blowing up condoms with the others. It actually was perfect because now James was distracted and had begun to burst the offending objects with annoyed swiping movements. I slid the dress off my shoulders and watched it fall to the floor at my feet, leaving me in a pale pink corset lingerie
GiovannaI opened my eyes slowly when i felt my mattress dip and smiled at the most wonderful sight ever. The face of my baby boy who was taking my face in his tiny soft hands. "Morning Mama." he whispered as I glanced at the clock, the blury numbers glowed in this still dull room. Morning my ass
James. Jinx was roaring around in my head waiting to claim our mate. He wanted me to pick her up and run but I could feel her reluctance, I sensed her fear. He was primal and feral and would happily tear every person in Don Carlos' pack apart if it meant taking his mate out of here. I had instant
Giovanna. He had hung around my office door but I kept myself busy as if there was nothing going on out of the ordinary. I kept myself out of his way until I saw my moment when my father's accountant Larry entered and knocked on my father's office door. Once Larry slipped inside I opened my own
James. The shower soothed me for a quick descent into sleep but my sleep was fit full and I kept waking with a feeling I had lost something or forgetting something. I forced the anxiety aside as I attempted to go back into sleep. I was going to need to be rested to have full patience to not kill
