LOGIN“His fingers curled inside me, hitting that spot that made me see stars. My body tensing as waves of pleasure washed over me. "Is... is this part of the contract?" I managed to choke out, my head falling back against his shoulder. "Do you want it to be?" he whispered back, his teeth grazing the shell of my ear.” ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Valentina was the invisible architect of the hockey star Harold Toval, sacrificing everything for his career. But her devotion is met with a nightmare, a leaked video of her boyfriend in an illicit threesome with her own cruel stepmother. Left homeless and broken, Valentina realizes she wasn't Harold's soulmate, she was his cover story. Stripped of everything, she strikes a lethal bargain with Harold’s greatest rival, Horace, the ice-reaper and the captain of the Ravagers Wolves. Horace has every reason to loathe her. Haunted by a dark family history, he has cultivated a legendary, violent hatred for blonde hair women. He intends to use Valentina's brilliant mind to ruin Harold, but the second their skin meets, a primal truth shatters his control, they are fated mates. What starts as a deal for revenge and also trapped in a cycle of fake dating leaves Valentina consumed by a raw hunger that leads to wild, punishing sex every single day, against the cold glass of his penthouse and in the back of his car. Their attraction is a dangerous drug. But in a world of pack politics and blood-debts, Valentina has traded one cage for another and she’s never wanted to be possessed more.

View MoreHORACEI forced my horny thoughts away. The entire drive to the dinner, I couldn't shake the feeling that something was wrong. Terribly wrong, because I know Valentina.I knew her well enough now to see the difference between flirting with me and distracting me. But fuck, she was winning at it.The little pauses between her words were too long. Her eyes kept drifting away whenever she thought I wasn't looking. Every time I caught her staring out the window, she'd immediately look back at me and smile like nothing was happening.Bullshit.Something had happened today. I just didn't know what.I tried to ignore it, telling myself it was just nerves about meeting the family. I could be overthinking it because I was also worried about eating with the family that had treated my mother like garbage for years.The mate bond made it impossible to ignore Val. Something was eating at her, and it made my wolf pace restlessly, wanting to drag the truth out of her pretty mouth.We finally made it,
VALENTINABy the time I got back to the penthouse, my brain felt like someone had dumped a thousand puzzle pieces into a blender and pressed start.The entire evening kept replaying in ugly little flashes. Agatha's stupid face, Harold's over the top warning, the hospital room, the things I had heard and the things I wished I hadn't. None of it made sense. Every answer seemed to create three new questions and every question somehow led right back to Horace.The penthouse doors slid open and I stepped inside quietly, hoping for maybe five minutes to breathe, but the second I crossed the threshold, a familiar voice hit me."You're late."I nearly jumped.Horace was sitting on the edge of the sofa, one arm stretched across the backrest, his eyes immediately finding me."Jesus," I muttered, pressing a hand against my chest. "Do you ever stop sneaking up on people. Hmm?""I wasn't sneaking up on anyone""You absolutely were." His eyebrow lifted. "You walked in here Val. Come on.""See? Tha
VALENTINAA cold, heavy knot twisted violently in my stomach. The absurdity of her words made my blood boil. "What is that supposed to mean, Agatha?" I snapped, using her actual name for the very first time. It felt sharp and hostile on my tongue. "Killed who?""Harold’s little slut," Agatha spit out, her voice dripping with hate.I let out a harsh, dry laugh, though my heart was hammering against my ribs. My hands balled into tight fists at my sides. "I don’t have a single clue what you are talking about. Care to elaborate, or are you just losing your mind from the blood loss?""All I’m saying is that you and Horace need to back off and leave Harold alone," she sneered, crossing her arms over her chest.I took a step closer to the bed, my eyes narrowing as pure anger took over. "What, are you acting as his mother now? I think the alpha’s son can speak for his own pathetic self. He doesn't need a babysitter.""Or what, Val?" Agatha challenged."Or nothing," I fired back, my voice dead
VALENTINAThe sharp sting of antiseptic and hand sanitizer hit me the exact second the sliding glass doors opened. The lobby was a chaotic mess of squeaking nurse sneakers, rolling wheelchairs, and crying families. I stood near the reception desk, the bright fluorescent lights buzzing overhead, instantly questioning why I had even come here in the first place.Then I spotted Harold.He was slumped on a waiting bench, his left leg bouncing so violently his sneaker practically blurred. He looked terrified, completely pale, like he might faint right onto the floor. But the very millisecond he raised his head and caught me staring, his entire posture shifted. He stood up slowly, a smug, irritating smirk spreading across his face as if he hadn't just been having a full-blown panic attack.He walked over, stopping just inches away. "Didn't think you'd make it. Thought you were going to let your mother die?""Step-mother," I corrected sharply, crossing my arms tightly over my chest. "And I
