Amanda After my talk with Teniv I found Bo sitting in a chair nearby staring out over the snowy landscape. "Hey," I greeted.His eyes flickered over to me. "There's something almost wrong about it, isn't there?" he asked.I turned my attention to what he was staring out but all I could make out was the blinding white snow blanketing the area. "What are you talking about, Bo?""Underneath that snow, hidden away is the blood of our people that fought against the demons. It hasn't even been a full day, and it's already covered. I have to go help with the burials but I can't pull myself away from this spot."I winced before reaching for his shoulder. "Bo?""I'm sorry. Losing so many people was harder than I thought. I'm just glad the kids are okay. We'll get Clara back somehow, Amanda. I promise."I didn't have any doubts about that. The people I had around me were fully capable. "Luna," Tyler called. He strode in from the other side of the building and nodded to me. "Raul, Jessie and

Amanda"I need a nap," I whispered. I stumbled away from the group and back into the house. I would try to lie down and figure out all this craziness. I knew what had to happen but I was terrified of it.How was I supposed to handle all of this? One of my children could very well wipe out everything that I wanted in life unless he found his mate, and I had another missing.No, not missing. She had been taken, kidnapped and handed over as a bounty. What had the demons been given to give her up so easily? They could have used her as leverage against us.They'd taken her to Rigar. I clenched my eyes shut and leaned against the hallway's wall. Just thinking his name sent a rush of panic through every nerve in my body. I had to face him, but the very thought of it made me feel I was walking on pins and needles. One wrong step or move and he'd have me in his grip again. I wouldn't be able to endure it.That man had taken so much away from me. How much more would he carve from my heart? I p

AmandaNo!I sat up from my sleep but the burning on my forehead of all things still persisted.That wasn't the worst part.His laughter echoed in my head even if it wasn't in words. I couldn't escape him. No matter what happened now, I was bound to a beast."Luna," Raul snapped his fingers in front of my face. I stared at him and with a cry, I launched myself into his arms. He easily caught me and hugged me, petting me like one would a scared animal. "Raul," I sobbed his name. The panic ate at every part of me, threatening to consume me whole. It had been awhile since I'd had to bear this. His slimy mind nudged against mine, his smug satisfaction felt like oil."What's wrong, Luna?"I shook my head. Words weren't something I could do right now. Slowly, I lifted myself from the comfort of his arms and looked up at him before sweeping my bangs away and letting him have a proper look.His eyes flickered black. "A mating mark," he mused, he rubbed the pad of his thumb against the sigi

JavierHer body jerked the moment the vibed head touched her clit. I'd turned on the strongest setting possible. "Javier!" she shrieked."Oh come on now, Amanda. You can take more than that," I purred at her. "You're going to be filled to the brim with this one, and it's got a special little feature for me that I'll activate when we're getting close to the end."She whimpered in response. I slid the head around pressing it harder against her until her hips bucked in time with the vibrations. The arousal from the bond spiraled through me and my cock twitched. Fuck, it would be hard to keep focused on just making my mate reach mindless satisfaction.I pulled the vibrating head off of her and pushed a button on the remote control and let the toy tickle my palm. I had to make sure of this new feature before I used it on her. My hand got hot and the rumbles tickled me. It was warm enough to feel good but not hot enough to cause any pain. Satisfied with that, I pushed another button and

Raul I sat at a bench and watched our Alpha attempt to control his powers. It wasn't that he was bad at it, but he needed some work for sure. The man could manage to summon his flames and move them around but it wasn't like his father that could command entire pillars of the magic. That wasn't what had my attention though. Nor did I care too much about the other hounds as they worked in their teaching gigs. No. My attention was solely on the medical building nearby. I wasn't stupid, I knew what was going on inside. It just was taking longer than I would have liked. This Luna of ours was like a drug pumped into my system. I wanted to be around her, listen to her, be able to touch her. Nothing I did was quite enough yet. The Prime had said we could be chosen by her. And I wanted that. Was that Javier wolf really that long-lasting? I cocked my head in contemplation. The seat in front of me squeaked as a heavy body fell into it. Bo glared at me. This guy again. "What?" I deman
