Rieka

I’m still reeling from the knowledge that I actually have a mate. I thought I lost that chance when Zane rejected me.

The rapid knock on the door interrupted us and it turns out that Brandon was startled because he had patrol saying they thought they saw a vampire but no one could find it or any scent for it.

Archer’s eyes connected with mine for a split second and I was so grateful that even without words he knew to say, “It must’ve been a fluke, Brandon. Vampires would reek of the metallic scent of blood.”

Brandon nodded, his eyes still showing his worry as Archer led us downstairs to be with the others. The moment we are downstairs there is a startled gasp as Delilah sees me and cries out, “Riley! Your eyes!”

Shit, I completely forgot.

Todd and Harry rush to my side and Harry murmurs, “I can’t believe you forgot your contacts.”

The corner of my mouth twitches up in amusement as I say, “I didn’t forget my contacts, Harry. Or well, maybe I did, but I don’t even know if they wou

    RiekaArcher’s agitation with Leviticus’s presence seems like it’s going to explode at any moment. Leviticus still meets my gaze, his words, “For as long as I’m needed,” seem to leave a lingering presence in the room.I say, “Unless there’s something else you need to add to this conversation, Leviticus, I think it’s alright for you to take your leave.”Archer asks, “Does that mean we’ll actually have privacy or will he just be watching us from afar?”After the question leaves his lips, a startled expression crosses over his face and he looks at Leviticus and asks, “How often do you watch her? Like… have you watched her when she undresses? Have you watched us when we’ve been more… intimate?”Leviticus’s nose scrunches up in distaste as he says, “I’m not a creep, Archer. I’m here to watch after her safety. I listen and intervene as needed. When she’s dressing or fooling around, it’s not my concern. So, no, I have never seen your precious mate undressed or her private moments with her ma

    RiekaThis is it, I told him the truth and I can’t take it back now. Archer stares at me as he absorbs through this information. His face doesn’t show his thoughts and it’s impossible for me to know whether or not he believes me.He lets out a long drawn out breath and says, “You didn’t trust me?”His voice almost cracks in that sentence and I frown, “You didn’t trust me enough to tell me that I’m your mate.”Archer argues, “Because I thought you were a human! A human who had just been rejected by a fated mate she didn’t even realize that she had. I was trying to protect you, it had nothing to do with a lack of trust!”“And I couldn’t feel the mate bond, Archer, surely you can understand that I couldn’t just tell a random wolf my deepest secret!”“I’m not a random wolf, I’m your mate, Riley, surely you can feel it too.”The urge to correct him about my name is strong, but I let it slide this time, trying to focus on the argument at hand. He’s right, now I can feel it, this glimmering

    ArcherMy head spins as Harry’s words register in my head. She’s shifting.She’s shifting.How is this possible? Riley is meant to be a human. I couldn’t sense the presence of a wolf.But she lets out an agonizing yell that almost resembles a howl. Her voice is getting raspier and I watch as the bones in her hands contort as they slowly rearrange to make paws.The transformation radiates through her body, a ripple of movement beneath her skin. Her arms buckle, re-shaping, pulling tighter, smoother, muscles bunching with an alien grace. It’s as if she is emerging from herself; all the while, a guttural keening tears from her throat, part human, part wolf. It’s a pain I can relate to all too well, the only difference is that I knew what to expect when I shifted. I don’t think she did.Or maybe she did. It’s hard to tell, I feel like there’s so much I don’t know about her. There’s so much that she’s chosen to keep secret from me.Her eyes meet mine and I’m startled to see them blazing pu

    RileyThe moment I step outside, I take off running. I’m moving far faster than I know I should be in order to maintain my identity as a ‘human’. But I can’t help it. The anxious energy inside me is screaming at me to move and to never stop.I’m so wrapped up inside my emotions I don’t even recognize Leviticus’s presence until he’s standing directly in front of me with his arms crossed, his brow furrowed, and his lips in a deep frown.I breathe out as I halt my run and say, “Move.”“What is going on with you?” He questions with his head tilted to the side like I’m a puzzle he can’t quite figure out. Even as he’s talking, I can’t stop moving, I’m bouncing around ready to keep going.I huff out, agitation overwhelming my sense, “Doesn’t matter, just move.”He shakes his head no, “I’m not stupid, Rieka. What is happening with you?”A deep rumble escapes from my throat, surprising us both. I clutch at the sound, trying to force it back inside before it takes over. But it fights its way ou

    RileyIt’s only the Monday after homecoming and the day starts out with Zane glaring daggers at me from across the room. I don’t understand what his problem is, I haven’t done anything to him and yet he treats me like I’m the problem.Prick.At least at the end of the school day my brothers and I are able to go over to the Dark Moon Pack. But the moment I walked through the pack house and saw Archer’s face I knew that something was wrong.Normally, he’s smiling at me when I come in. Today, it’s like a dark cloud is looming over him, I frown as his eyes meet mine and he nods back as he says, “Come on, Ri, we need to talk.”My brothers both give me concerning looks and Harry asks, “Archer, is everything alright?”Archer gives a soft smile at my overprotective brother and says, “Yeah, everything’s fine. I just need to talk to Riley in private. I promise, it’s nothing to worry about.”Harry nods hesitantly and I reassure him, “I’m fine. Why don’t you go find Jane?”He immediately brighten
