Esme’s POV

I woke up to the sound of faint footsteps somewhere beyond the door.

For a long moment, I didn’t move. My eyes stayed fixed on the ceiling, trying to piece together where I was, how I got here. The air was thick with the scent of should I say Cole’s scent.

And that was all it took. My stomach turned sharply as everything from last night rushed back into my head, the struggle, the fear, the pain.

I sat up too fast and a sharp ache tore through my thighs and lower body. I winced, gaspi

  • The Beta's Temptation    You want my dick next

    Cole's POV“What a fucking sly fate,” I hissed as I watched her run straight into my fucking room. I instantly clapped my hands together once and followed right after her because right now I think the venom was messing with my damn senses bad. I was suddenly craving her so much it hurt deep in my gut. My wolf did not give two fucks if she hated me or not at this point and that was making things really hard for us both.The rejection had not broken the bond and the damn venom kept pumping fire through my veins every time I got close to her. I needed to taste her again more than I needed the fucking air.I reached the room fast and pushed the door open wide. She was standing by the window side looking out at the yard. When she turned and saw me there her eyes went wide with shock and her mouth fell open a little. She looked so damn good even when she was pissed. Her hair was messy from the fall earlier and her cheeks were still flushed pink. I could smell her arousal from before mix

  • The Beta's Temptation    Sly fate

    Cole's POVHer words about signing a contract and me not being allowed to die until it expired kept echoing in my head over and over. I looked at her briefly, taking in the way her arms were crossed tight and her eyes flashed with that mix of anger and determination. Everything about the moment felt heavy between us, the air thick after everything we had been through. I began stalking closer to her, my steps slow, watching her reaction as I moved. She pulled back right away, her body shifting away from me, but her leg hit the edge of the couch in the living room. She lost her balance and fell down on her butt on the couch, her hands catching herself behind her.I smirked as I saw her there, and I leaned down toward her, placing both of my hands on her shoulders to trap her in place.The feel of her skin under my palms sent a rush through me, warm and familiar, reminding me of how much I had missed touching her like this. "I must say that is one sweet contract," I said, my voice l

  • The Beta's Temptation    I know I'm dangerous

    Cole's POV We arrived at the house and I stopped the bike immediately, cutting the engine as soon as my feet touched the ground. I released a long, heavy breath I didn’t even realize I’d been holding. My shoulder burned and my arms were shaking slightly now that the adrenaline was finally settling down.I scooped Lior down from the bike first, setting him gently on his feet. Before I could even turn around, Esme was already off the bike, standing solidly on the ground like nothing had happened.Interesting. She’d gotten tougher.I glanced at her for a second longer than necessary, then turned to Lior and held out my hand. “Come on,” I said. “Let’s go inside.”Lior took my hand instantly, squeezing it tight like he was afraid I might disappear again.As we walked toward the house, his eyes lit up, scanning the place like he was seeing it for the first time and also remembering it at the same time.“Finally,” he said happily. “We’re back here. I missed this place so much, Daddy.”My h

  • The Beta's Temptation    And mine

    Cole's POV The first gunshot echoed through the building like a warning bell from hell.I didn’t think.I reacted.I grabbed Lior instantly, pulling him tight against my chest, my arm locking around him like a shield. With my free hand, I caught Esme by the wrist and dragged her down with me as we ducked behind the couch just as another shot tore through the space above where our heads had been seconds ago.“Stay down,” I ordered quietly but firmly.My heart was pounding hard, not from fear for myself but from fear for them.Esme was shaking. Not just startled. She was terrified.She clutched the gun she had taken from me earlier with stiff fingers, her knuckles pale, her breathing shallow and uneven. This wasn’t the controlled doctor I had seen earlier. This was a mother whose child was in danger.I met her eyes and lifted two fingers, signaling to give me the gun.She understood immediately and handed me the gun, her hand trembling as she did.Real fear was written all over her fa

  • The Beta's Temptation    Leave

    Cole's POV After Shawn said what he said, I didn’t waste another second.I turned sharply and dashed out of the house like something was chasing me. My vision pulsed, and my body ached for rest, but I ignored every single warning. I slid onto my bike, the engine roaring to life beneath me, and I sped off into the road like hell itself was behind my back.Fuck.What if something had already happened?What if I was already too late?Bringing them to Italy had been a gamble. Shawn warned me back in the pack. Even my instincts warned me. I thought it would be quieter here with fewer enemies, fewer eyes watching my every move, but that was a lie I told myself because I was desperate.Turns out, I had enemies everywhere.Every country. Every street. Every shadow.I sped faster, the wind tearing against my face, my hands gripping the handles so tightly my knuckles ached. My mind was racing nonstop, replaying that message over and over again, twisting it into something darker with every se

  • The Beta's Temptation    Soulmates

    Cole’s POV That single message on my phone sent me spiraling in a way nothing else had managed to do tonight. She’s not safe. Best friend? Best friend?! Who the hell was that supposed to be? My thoughts raced wildly, slamming into each other, until one name forced its way to the front and refused to leave. Nolan. That bastard. He escaped. And now he was here, In Italy. Fuck!! My chest tightened painfully as the realization settled in. Fuck. Fuck. Fuck. Every ounce of morale I had left after the Albanians bloodbath evaporated instantly, leaving behind something raw and sharp and terrifyingly focused. I spun around and called for Raid immediately. He staggered toward me, blood soaking through his clothes, his face pale but still stubbornly alert, still refusing to drop even though his body was screaming at him to. “We’re leaving,” I said without hesitation. He nodded once, not asking questions, and followed me to the car. This time, I decided to drive beca
