KANE "Sexy bitches." I licked my lips as I scrolled through the pictures of hot naked models. Someone knocked at the door but I didnât pay attention to it. Though it entered anyway. It was just a maid. She wore a dress that was shorter than the rest. Her short bob hairstyle irritated me and she carried a tray of piled-up chevron with a bowl of hot pepper sauce alongside it. She avoided eye contact with me and dropped the tray on a table. Her feet moved faster as she headed for the door as if she knew what I wanted to do. âHey! Maid!â She stopped and gulped before turning to me. âYes, sir.â She bowed her head. âCome here.â I scanned my eyes around her f*cking body as she shyly moved towards me. Itâs never too early to have a little fun. She stayed at a safe distance. At least that was what she thought. âCloser.â She hesitantly took a step closer. I got up from the bed and circled her, taking note of her goodies. I grabbed her a*s and she whimpered. I hit her back against
KATRINAMy legs moved faster than my body as I ran out of the packhouse. Everyone around looked at me like I had gone insane but I didnât care about them because my mind died every time I replayed the scene at the packhouse.I couldnât believe it. My evil mother was cheating on dad, but how could she? Dad had done nothing but love and support her, yet she stabbed him in the back. She was not only hurting dad but me as well which she was an expert at.âSee her go! A*shole!â I heard someone say from behind as the others erupted in laughter.But I didnât stop until I was out of the pack and crashed into someoneâs hands. I looked up and stared into my fatherâs hazel eyes. He was Gamma Leonard of the Southpaw pack. My father was only a few inches to six foot. His chocolate brown hair was made to a neat curly quaff which complemented his hazel eyes. He had a short beard and a nose that was sculpted just for his face, like mine. I got my good personality from my dad but there were traces o
IAN My nose tingled in arousal. Not because of the smoke I inhaled from my cigarette, but because of the sweet, nutty smell of vanilla that I couldnât resist. I couldnât move on until I found where that lustrous scent was coming from. My wolf, Bolt, howled in pleasure as I walked closer to the stream. Vibrations came from the very spot I kept my eyes on and the smell grew stronger. âSir, is something wrong?â The leader of the Sigmas asked, keeping his attention stance. I didnât reply but bent down to the water and put my hand inside. I stretched it in, about to reach for something when I heard a loud squeal rise from the pack. A wolf ran toward us with all the excitement and energy in the world. âOh, My Goddess! I canât believe it! Itâs really you!â Her squealing was ear-deafening. âIâm Kendra, the Gammaâs daughter.â She flipped her cinnamon brown hair as her golden eyes flickered in delight. I withdrew my hand from the stream and walked up to her. Her heart leaped in joy but I
KATRINAâTake her,â Ian commanded.The Sigmas attempted to grab me but I escaped them and ran to my dad. Heâd help. He couldnât just watch them take me away.âDad! Dad, wonât you help!!âI expected him to step in immediately but he stood there like a statue, still avoiding eye contact with me. My heart shattered. No, I didnât believe it.âDad, wonât you look at me?! Theyâre taking me away! For slavery, dad!âHe turned his back against me and I crashed to the floor. All hope was lost if the wolf I always thought I could count on turned his back on me. Me?! I didnât think my heart could break more than it already had.âDad!!!â I tried to walk up to him but mother came in the way and pushed me back.I fell to the floor, almost hitting my head on the ground. Tears welled up. âMother, how can you do this to me?!âShe sneered. âFor the last time, donât call me mother! Iâm not your mother. I regretted the day I gave birth to you!âMy eyes turned to Kendra, hoping that maybe, just maybe, that
KENDRAI paced around my room as my heart lunged for my ribcage. I would stop for a second but when I remembered that Katrina was with the Alpha Triplets, I went all crazy again!âMum, we have to talk!â I mind-linked her.I couldnât take it anymore. I knew she was at the doctorâs appointment but if I didnât speak to her, Iâd lose my mind. I hadnât changed into a nightgown yet and my room was a mess.My queen-sized bedroom was carpeted in a furry wild berry pink and a pink-themed four-poster bed stood at the far end, near my sliding windows, leaving little space for a squeezed-in white drawer. A white sofa was at the far left, with two pink throw pillows at its corners.And a plastic table with a makeup mirror, and a matching cantilever chair opposite, was on the far right. One light bulb was over the sofa and another over my desk, and my pink closet was just a few steps from my sofa. A white vase of ballerina roses sat on my desk and to top it off, small pots of jasmines were lined on
KATRINASomething light and smooth fell on my body.I shrugged as the white light from the dungeon disappeared when the door shut. I got up with weary eyes, almost forgetting where I was and for a second, I thought I saw dad but unfortunately, it was my shadow.With my back against the wall and a short white satin dress in my hands, I closed my eyes, hoping I could escape reality but the flashes of Ian rough-handling me pushed me back to the reality I didnât want to be in. I let the tears I had been fighting all this while fall. A flood gushed down my ashen cheeks as I let out a great sob, covering my face with shaking hands.I had been fighting for so long, trying so hard to be strong but I couldnât take it anymore. I was just human and there was only so much I could take.âWhy?!â Hot torments of grief coursed down my face. The dungeon became eerily cold and I was forced to wear the dress, but even that didnât protect me from the murdering cold. I laid and cuddled, resting my head
KATRINAI thought Kane was a hotcake, which he is, but Cannon was on fire. He was dressed in a business suit, that made him appear like a CEO, and dark shades hung from his neck. He was a few inches than six foot and had walnut brown hair with cerulean blue eyes.His cheekbones were defined and there was a suitcase in his other hand. I wondered how he could grip me so tightly with only one hand. He had a hawkish nose and concrete jaws like the rest of his brothers. His thin arched eyebrows complemented his almond-shaped eyes that glimmered with interest.He looked over to his brother, anger written on his face. âIsnât this Ianâs new slave? Whatâre you doing with her?âI then remembered who my âsaviorâ was. It pissed me off that he called me a slave. I tried to struggle out of his hold, hoping I could use the distraction to free myself, but he only held me tighter, and besides, I was the center of attraction.âGive her to me, right now!âMy heart quaked at the high volume of Kaneâs vo
KATRINAI would give anything to be out of my prison! Cannon might have saved me from Kane, but I was still returned to the packhouse and there was nothing I could do about it. On normal occasions, I donât have night vision or any sharpened senses because I was just mere human, but yesterday, I could distinguish the scents of all three of them.Ian had an earthy musk scent with traces of bergamot. Kaneâs strong Bay Rum scent couldnât be overlooked even without a sharp nose but his sweet peppermint combo just contrasted his attitude. As for Cannon, he had that comforting Eucalyptus smell with an equal dose of vetiver.I was given a new dress this morning. It was a long singlet strapped cashmere dress and I was cuddled against the wall. This time, I wasnât in the dungeon, but in a grand room.The room was bigger and better than mine at Southpaw. There was a large golden wingback bed at the center of the end of the room and the walls were covered in white classic wallpaper. Two comfortab
He listened to the darkness that spun around his ears, a low screeching noise releasing from it. It danced around him and sang the song of death as he walked mindlessly to where he had to be.This meeting could happen only once in ten years. He wasnât sure he had made the wisest decision or that the others were smart to join but what he knew was that he needed answers. And he would do anything to get them.Heart-burning answers about his mate and all happening on the surface above, things he needed to know. If only he could stretch his hand out of the looming darkness and rejoin themâŠThe darkness continued to swirl like a body of smoke in the dead of the night. He was walking but he wasnât feeling the ground. He was moving but he felt like he had been in the same place the whole time. His eyes were open but it wouldnât make a difference if he were blind⊠in a place as dark and sad as this.Not too long after his wailing thoughts, Cannon saw what looked like a dull red orb of dim light
KATRINAâItâs a beautiful day, isnât it?âMy knees were on the new little shoots of grass that were growing⊠The wind was very friendly âcause it circled me in a gentle whirlwind. The sun was madly bright, hoping to roast everyone with its stinging rays but that didnât bother me because of the greater pain weighing my heart down. Little stones prickled my knees and I removed my sunglasses, setting them aside.Windy and Sunny didnât go well together. Father said there was nothing in the world that couldnât go together. It all depended on how you were doing it. But in this case, the wind is like Dash and the sun is like Hilda soâŠThe pain of looking down at fatherâs grave was sharp and hit me right in the heart.There was nothing like it and I had been fighting tears all the time I was here. I could barely hear the voices of the playing kids that Kane was trying to control. I smiled a bit⊠they wouldnât take him seriously, especially when heâs been spoiling them too much.Surprisingly m
KATRINAFreedom. It was all I could think about.Kane ushered me into a room, checking to make sure no one followed us here. Our duration at the ball was mostly spent attending to guests, dancing, and having conversations with the Beta and Gamma until nine oâclock. We needed time to ourselves and I was annoyed that two Alphas, one of the Jayrus pack and the other of the Skyfall pack, were eager on discussing business with the Alpha. There were so eager that they couldnât even respect the party. I couldnât blame them. The partnership would be hugely beneficial if they succeeded.But if they think that because Kaneâs a new Alpha, heâd be easily convinced with a partnership that heâd only gain access to a few diamond mines and good weather, then they were twice dumber than I thought. Kane knew what he was doing. His words, âTodayâs a celebration. Letâs not spoil the mood with business talk, the time for that will come.â We also met Alpha Hades and I didnât care if it was inappropriat
KATRINAI donât want to sound proud but since no oneâs here to tell me, I say this dress looks so much better when Iâm wearing it.âYou do sound proud and⊠thatâs how itâs meant to be.ââEver heard of what you wanted versus what you got?âI couldnât recognize my former self as I gazed at myself in the mirror. It must be a crime to look this pretty.âCut it out already! Itâs annoying.ââSounds like jealousy to me. Too bad you canât wear a dress.ââSays who?âI pushed her aside for a moment and thought about the kids. I wasnât happy that they would have to sleep through the most important morning of my life but it was best. They wouldnât understand what was happening and would ask just too many questions.Hilda wouldâve been so pleased to see me wear a crown. She would think we were in a castle all this time and tick herself as a princess. Also, I donât think they know that the wolves here can actually shift into one. Itâs hard to imagine the looks on their faces when they realize they
KATRINA Thankfully, Kendra left me off because Susanna caught us when she came to momentarily check up on me. She was furious when she discovered I wasnât sleeping and it made me wish I had locked the door.So that was how she sent Kendra away at ten pm and tried to put me to sleep. Of course, I couldnât so I pretended. She bought it and left the room. I donât know what the time is but Iâm still awake and I was laying on my side on the bed, staring at my dress.The last time a dress had been folded for me like this was when I was being sold. Today, this was for a coronation that will change my life. Itâs crazy because the sale felt like yesterday.If someone told me Iâd end up like this, I would have never believed it. Itâs amazing but some strange force was pulling me down. I couldnât force a smile even with all the amazing things happening around me.There were still unsettled things between Kane and me, and I was afraid to bring it up. Iâm not sure if he has ever thought about it.
KATRINAâWhy are you here?âMy right hand kept the door partially open, prepared for when theyâd say something irritating so I could slam it in their faces, and the part of me that wasnât inside, rested on the hinges.Kane was close⊠close enough for me to feel his warm heavy breaths on the weak points of my neck and his crotch unnoticeably grinding my a*s, excitement sizzling through me. If only Susanna wasnât inâŠMadeline and Fraser were not present, thank goodness for that, but any of the council members is enough to put me in a bad mood. âYou havenât said anything?â Kane inquired, opening the door a bit more so that his menacing figure would get a better view.Penelopeâs eyes were sizing Kane up and that made me more insecure than it normally shouldâve been.Elder Sesan had gone strict and that small smile he once had, had gone. âWe must inform you, of course, about the coronation that will occur in the grand hall tomorrow.ââCoronation?â I asked, easing and tensing up at the sam
KATRINAFor a second there, I felt complete emptiness. What was I saying? I couldnât even feel myself. I went numb and it didnât âfeel likeâ because something had definitely been pulled out of me. It came like eternal peace but I began to worry when I got my senses back and still couldnât move.Thankfully, Kane caught me and the world was colorful again. My nerves were working again. I was still recovering but Kane helped me to my feet and his touch brought me back to life.His aura was stronger than ever and the one thing that was once shared among three, then two⊠all belonged to him. It was a pulling attraction, which I could barely control.Was this how it felt to have one mate? The one you truly deserved. âWhat did you do, Kat?â Kane asked, and he seemed to have turned slightly pale as well.I muttered silently, smiling, âWhat I should have done a long time ago.âIan wasnât taking this well. He screamed like he was burn
KANE I didnât understand a f*cking thing that was happening but the way my life changed from âwaiting for deathâ to âbecoming Alphaâ left me in shock. I was not expecting it and what I loved most right now was how Katrina held my hand bossily.Dragging me along with her⊠with serious a*s movements that drove me nuts.âI see empty rooms all around us?ââNot a f*cking word from you.âBut as much as I enjoyed this moment and didnât want it to end, I had to know what the hell was happening. The excitement, sex drive, and curiosity were killing me.âYou have to tell me whatâs going on? Can you hear how hard my heart is beating?âI sensed her rolling her eyes because her back was to me, and I admired her beautiful and lengthier caramel blonde hair. âBe patient, would you?âI didnât want to stop her because she was so anxious but I had to do something.âExplain while weâre going. If you donât, I might die before we reach there.âShe turned to me, a glare locked on her face before she shook
KATRINAWho will be the chosen one?It was a simple question but thereâd be grave consequences if a mistake occurred. Not only would my kids and I suffer for it, but the pack as a whole. A worthy wolf would also be hanged to death.âYouâve had plenty of time to think before now, Katrina. We donât want to waste any more time now, do we?â Madeline snapped at me, seeming greatly impatient.Penelope talked before Elder Sesan could say a word. âThis is a very delicate decision. Even at the last second, it needs proper thinking. You shouldnât rushâŠââAnd who asked you to speak?â Fraser turned to her while I watched them with grazing eyes. âYou never have anything sensible to say.ââShe is right, Fraser.â All attention returned to Sesan when his words came out. âA decision made in haste would yield frightening results. We must not hasten her.âFraser sneered while Penelope glared at Madeline for some time before catching me loo
