AmberStepping out of work, I inhaled a lungful of air.Being in an office all day long took its toll on your body, especially when you’re hunched over a desk, frantically typing. The latest story was about a series of kidnappings that were happening all over the towns around ours; it was terrifying that the numbers were increasing daily.I pushed my hair behind my ear, scanning the streets before heading home.I hated being nervous in my hometown, especially when the police had zero leads.They only took women.Young women.I swallowed as I neared my bus stop, pulling my thin jacket around me as the clouds let out a splatter of rain.I looked up at the digital bus timetable that told me the bus was delayed, much to my annoyance.I kept scanning around just in case any would-be kidnappers were hiding, but the streets were mainly empty.That’s what you get for working so late, dammit.The sound of a motorbike peeling d

DOMINICSomething told me she was near.I was gazing at Axel, who was remarkably calm considering how long he’d been in the pit.“You look like shit,” I chirped, earning myself a scowl.“I would’ve made an effort, but there’s no fucking facilities in the hole you stuck me in,” Axel snapped back, his eyes scanning mine. “I hear you’re no longer our Alpha,” he sneered.“No, I’m not,” I confirmed, steepling my fingers together.Axel had lost weight, but three weeks in the pit would do that to a wolf.“Good. You were the worst Alpha I’d ever seen,” Axel said with a manic grin. “So it’s true. Dante has returned.”“He will deal with you how he sees fit,” I said with a shrug, shuffling through the paperwork on my desk. “You’re not my problem now, Axel.”My voice warned him not to overst

DanteHelen was asleep on the sofa when I got back, so I left her there, heading for Amber’s room.The moonlight that spilt through the window highlighted Ambers sleeping form, her fire-red hair fanning around her like a halo. I sighed, watching her sleep for a moment.She’s given up everything for us. My wolf reminded me, content from his run with the pack.I showered before climbing into bed beside her, tugging her into my arms as she whined softly in her sleep.“I missed you,” Amber murmured, burying her head into my neck. Her hand swept down my torso, sending shivers down my spine.“Yeah? How much?” I grinned, pulling her on top of me.Amber crossed her arms over her body, lifting her silky shirt over her head, revealing her pert breasts and smooth skin.“So much.”Amber lifted her hips, and I swept her underwear to the side, easing myself inside her wi

I watched in fascination as the warriors trained—not just men, the women too. The women in the pack were fearless, their strength matching their male opponents of not exceeding it at times.One, in particular, fought with such passion; I wondered if she genuinely hated the man in front of her.The man with the golden eyes.Dominic.I’d be lying if I said my eyes didn’t return to him every five seconds, watching the way his arms wrapped around the woman’s waist or the way he laughed when she screamed with frustration, attempting to throw him over to no avail.“Who’s the woman?” I asked Helen who’d become a good friend to me. Dante was meeting with another Alpha in the packhouse, and he’d asked me if I wanted to watch the warriors’ training.“Huh? Which woman?” Helen gazed at me, curiously.“The one with Dominic.”Saying his name set my i

DOMINICI can’t stand stupidity, and regardless of anything else, that is exactly how my brother is behaving.He has the mind link- did he not hear the murderous thoughts in Sasha’s mind?I didn’t even think twice, and Dante hadn’t moved a muscle.Fucking Dante.I was borderline starting to lose my tolerance for these fuckers; the lot of them frustrated me.So I was at the lake, trying to find calm.That wasn’t hap
