Emily’s heart was racing in her chest as she slowly backed away from Conri. She gave a little gasp as her back bumped into a tree. When she looked up she saw that Conri was closing the distance between them. “Do you want to know why,” he asked.  “Why,” Emily asked breathlessly.  “Because we are the Alpha King,” he growled. Conri grabbed her upper arms and pulled her to him as his mouth came crashing down on hers.  Emily’s squawk of protest quickly died down at the sensation of his mouth on hers. She had kissed a few guys before but they were absolutely nothing like this. She could easily become addicted to kissing Gabriel and Conri. Everywhere that he touched with his mouth or han

Gabriel heard Emily groan and put her head in her hands. He could just imagine how much she was worried about making a good first impression. He did not know how to tell her that she could have been a hunter and no one would have cared. The fact that she was his long awaited mate and the fact that she was saving him from becoming feral, was enough for her to be placed on the highest pedestal with everyone.  How is everything going? Is my castle still standing? Gabriel asked Hunter.  I was debating about messaging you! Everyone else just got back a couple of hours ago, but no one would tell me where you were. They pretty much had to gag Axel, so I figured that you were o

I did not know that my mother had any family still alive,” Emily said in awe. “I didn’t know that you had a sister,” Gabriel said at the same time with his brow furrowing. He and Conri were also partially relieved that Samuel would not be a romantic threat, but now he would be a pain in Gabriel’s side as her uncle. On the positive side though, Gabriel probably just found the leverage he needed to get Samuel to come back. “Maybe you should come in and have a seat,” Samuel said, gesturing to the cabin. I think this story might take a while. Also, I think all of this started because someone needed to use the restroom.” As he began to lead the way into the cabin, Samuel turned around and looked at Emily. “Maybe we can fill in some information for each other after you use the restroom. I would like to

“You mean that my uncle forced me to get engaged to my mother's killer,” Emily almost shrieked. “Did he know? What the hell,” Emily said while freaking out. She was trying to remain calm so that Gabriel and Conri would not go on a warpath, but this was almost too much. Learning that your mom died because she was too weak after trying to protect you. To learn that you have lived with your mother’s killer for the last five years. Learning that you may or may not have some great abilities. That so many people are willing to kill you and others for these abilities. Was it worth finding out? Would everyone be safer if she never found out if she was more than just human. Emily just wasn’t sure what to think anymore. She could even see why Samule had been reluctant to tell her everything earlier. It is all information that she needed to know, but there is also just so much. She regre

“Hi Conri,” Emily tried soothing. “I’m okay. Look,” Emily said, wiggling so he would put her down and she could stand, “Agatha fixed my knee.” She demonstrated this by bending it a few times and doing a lunge.  Conri calmed down a little but still scooped Emily back into his arms and buried his nose into her neck. He continued to make soft growls while breathing in her scent and grumbling. “Tried to take mate. My mate. Couldn’t get to mate.” “It’s okay,” Emily said, wrapping her arms around Cronri’s neck and shifting in his arms so that she could wrap her legs around his waist to let her look him in the eyes. “Agatha is my friend. She didn’t hu
