Emma POV:

I adjusted the emerald silk of the gown Cast’s attendants had dropped off, the rich fabric draping heavily against my skin. The color was meant to make me look like royalty, but standing outside the double doors of the grand dining hall, I felt more like a sacrifice decked out for the altar.

Kieran leaned against the stone wall opposite me, looking criminally handsome in a dark, tailored suit that failed to hide the broad, dangerous line of his shoulders. His dark eyes tracked eve

    Chapter ThirteenEmma POVThe heavy fur blanket pooled around my waist as I shifted onto my knees, my skin tingling under the dual weight of their gazes. The morning sun was just starting to crest the high arched windows, casting long, amber-hued slants of light across the vast mahogany bed.As I reached out, my fingertips brushed Cast’s tense, bare shoulder while my other hand rested over Kieran’s heart. There were no lofty labels for what was happening here. This wasn't some soft, pristine fairytale—this was raw, undeniable, bone-deep heat, sparked by two weeks of buried friction and the sudden, overwhelming current of the bond pulling us into the same orbit.Kieran’s breath hitched as his eyes slowly dragged up the length of my body. The dark, frantic haunts of his past were completely gone, replaced by a dark, heavy hunger that made his hazel eyes burn like hot gold."Goddess, Emma," Kieran rasped, his voice dropping an octa

  • The Beta's Revenge    Chapter 12

    Chapter TwelveThe fireplace in the Alpha suite had burned down to a mound of glowing crimson embers by the time the muted, gray light of dawn filtered through the tall, arched velvet-draped windows. The air inside the sprawling room was warm and thick, smelling of sweet pine smoke, aged cedarwood, and the heavy, intoxicating musk of three distinct mate bonds intertwining in the quiet room.I woke up slowly, my consciousness floating out of the deepest, most restful sleep I had known in months.I didn't move a muscle. Honestly, I couldn't if I wanted to.Kieran was still anchored firmly between Cast and me, his heavy head resting in the soft hollow of my shoulder, his breathing deep, rhythmic, and entirely free of the desperate, wheezing panic that had choked him down in the freezing courtyard hours ago. One of his large, calloused hands was hooked securely around my hip beneath the heavy fur blanket, while his broad back was pressed flush against Cast’s solid, warm chest. Cast’s long

  • The Beta's Revenge    chapter Eleven

    Chapter Eleven Emma POV Cast stepped fully out of the shadows, the low torchlight catching the sharp line of his jaw and the cold, calculating glitter in his dark eyes. He didn't look angry; he looked satisfied, like a grandmaster who had just watched his opponent walk straight into a trap. "A murder pact," Cast murmured, taking a deliberate step toward us. "A stolen relic. And a vengeance contract signed in blood right under my nose. You two really know how to make a late-night perimeter check entertaining." Kieran didn't lower his blade. His posture remained rigid, his breathing ragged as the raw, suffocating weight of his confession hung in the freezing night air. "Stay out of this, Cast." "I would love to, Beta," Cast replied, stopping just inches away from us. The Alpha aura radiating off him was heavy, smooth, and utterly suffocating. "Except you're standing on my border, brandishing steel at the female who holds the key to our

    Chapter Ten Emma POV The courtyard was draped in a suffocating layer of damp night mist that turned the towering stone walls of the fortress into jagged black silhouettes. Cold air stung my lungs as I hurried down the outer steps, tracking Kieran’s fast-moving shape across the courtyard toward the northern gate. He moved like a phantom—blade drawn, posture low and lethal, tracing the scent of scorched pine through the shadows. But as we reached the edge of the woods where the courtyard gave way to the dense, ancient forest, the wind died down. The heavy humidity of the approaching rain smothered the air, wiping away the faint trail entirely. Kieran stopped dead in his tracks at the tree line. His chest heaved with ragged breaths, his dark eyes wide as he scanned the empty shadows between the ironwood trees. He took a frantic step forward, sweeping his blade t

    Emma POVThe rest of the meal passed in a tense, suffocating silence that no one dared to break. By the time Cast dismissed the table, my ribs felt tight from holding back every sarcastic comment I possessed. But as we stepped back out into the quiet stone corridor, I didn't head for my quarters. I blocked Kieran’s path before he could turn the corner.He stopped short, his heavy boots coming down with a dull thud against the polished flagstones. For a second, the amber edge of his wolf flickered in his eyes—sharp, predatory, and entirely unamused."Out of the way, Pet," he growled, his voice a low, gravelly raspy vibration in the cool air."Make me," I said, holding my ground. The emerald silk of my dress rustled as I shifted my weight, closing the remaining distance between us until the heat off his skin washed over me. "What was that back there?"Kieran crossed his arms, the fabric of his dark suit jacket straining across his broad shoulders. "It was dinner. You ate, the Elders gla

    Emma POV: I adjusted the emerald silk of the gown Cast’s attendants had dropped off, the rich fabric draping heavily against my skin. The color was meant to make me look like royalty, but standing outside the double doors of the grand dining hall, I felt more like a sacrifice decked out for the altar. Kieran leaned against the stone wall opposite me, looking criminally handsome in a dark, tailored suit that failed to hide the broad, dangerous line of his shoulders. His dark eyes tracked every shift of my dress with an open, icy hostility. Cast stood a few paces back, hands casually tucked into his trousers, watching the two of us like an observer testing two volatile chemicals in a flask. "If you're trying to bore me to death before we go in, it's working," Kieran drawled, his voice a low, gravelly rasp. "Are we going to stand in the corridor all night, or are you waiting for permission to breathe?" "I was just giving you a moment to practice your pleasant expression," I fired

    Emma POV: The forest has gone completely silent as far as I'm concerned because the only things I can hear are the crunching of leaves as Cast goes down on his knees in front of me while Kieran looks me dead ass in the eyes. A small part of me doesn't believe this is going to happen. But, I lo

The asphalt is cold and wet under my bare feet and my ass and tits are giggling in the air as I run full force towards the road. I could hear cars driving on it when I was hiding in the woods with

    Kieran POV:Chapter Two Kieran POV: I look at Cast. He looks at me and shrugs. “Better go after her good Beta.” I narrowed my eyes on him. This is not a game I’m willing to play. I’m not a chess piece on a board. “What the fuck will you be doing then?” He looks at me unimpressed. “I’ll be moving
