ELLE Dante was a pretty cool guy. I was worried that he would look at me differently knowing what he saw in the dream, but he did not. You could tell that he was already protective of me because he knew about me growing up. He personally looked for me and even came to this pack. That meant everything to me. “Who did you see when you came here?” I asked him as we walked back to the packhouse. “I think it was the Beta. Not sure what his name is though or if it’s the same one.” I laced him arm around his and hurried my pace. This was going to be funny. He just chuckled but followed. I never thought about what it would be like to have a brother, but it was pretty cool so far. ‘Baby, is Beta Oscar being kept in the cells?’ I asked. ‘Of course. It’s the finest establishment this packhouse has to offer. He and Dulaney are in the last cell. Want to go see him?’ ‘He’s the one that Dante met at the border, so I wanted to let the dipshit see how fucked he is,’ I purred to my mate. Kade he

ELLE “How are you doing, darling?” Kade asked me once we made it back to the bedroom. His arms wrapped around my waist, pulling my back flush with his front. I could feel every hard muscle pressing against my back while warmth and sparks coursed through me. It was a delicious current that helped push away the pain from earlier. The knowledge of what happened would never leave me, but I had been able to dim the pain a bit. Time would begin to heal it though. That was something I learned in life. “A little better,” I admitted, leaning back to look up at my mate. I had filled Kade in via mindlink about what triggered me off. He had said that I was a better person than him because he would have just ripped his body apart piece by piece until his final breath. “Are you really giving him ten hours?” he asked. My mate’s light touches caressed my sides, invigorating my ever-present desire for the things that only he could do to me. His warm hand splayed across my stomach underneath my

DANTE I would have lost my fucking shit with that bastard Elder if it had not been for my sister. Keeping her safe was my sole focus. The level of manipulation it required to sneak around like he did led me to believe that something else was at play here because it would require more than just a blessed wolf to accomplish. That feeling was only reaffirmed when a Zeltenea targeted her. Those fuckers were very rare. They would not be hired by someone or something unless given a hefty incentive in turn. We needed to figure that shit out fast. This was more than just the Alpha bastard wanting her as a Power Giver. He just genuinely desired her for that. The Elder was obsessive over her and had friends in powerful places. Then you have whoever hired the Zeltenea. Why though? There was something that we did not know but others apparently did, and that was the fucking frustrating part. Chris and Lindsey popped out of an opened portal. It startled everyone who was not used to it, making

ELLE Nightshade was very beautiful. I was not certain what I expected it to be like, but this was completely different than Blue Crest. We passed by houses, parks, and even schools. It was Saturday, so families of all ages were out and about. We even passed by an ice cream truck. “Wow…” I said softly, mesmerized that this was home now. “We’ll give everyone a tour once your family’s pack settles in and all,” Kade promised, placing a kiss to the back of my hand. “ Can’t wait!” I flashed him a smile. This would be an entirely new life for all of us, and I was incredibly happy that all the previous Omegas would be getting to embrace all of this. This was not just a blessing for me. It was a blessing for all of us. ‘They have a fucking waterpark,’ Gabriel said excitedly. “You have a waterpark?” I asked Kade with widened eyes. I had never been to a waterpark. I had been swimming in the small lake we had a couple of times, but that was it. Swimming was not difficult, but we did not re

KADE “There’s no way in fuck that I would ever reject my mate. She’s the most amazing blessing I could ever receive. Nice try though. Your little mind games won’t work on us. We really thought it would be harder to figure out who was helping Elwyn, but my sexy mate figured it out the moment you tried and failed to compel her.” Abigail paled at my words as if she never considered it was possible to be caught. She truly was a delusional bitch. We got to know one another in high school through a shared mourning over the death of a parent. Her father had died, and she was so lost that it reminded me of what it had been like for me when my mother died. I came to realize that she played on my compassion in order to ensnare me into her desire to become Luna. I broke up with her and never touched her again nor had anything to do with her again. “Also, for you to compel the Elders into forcing me to accept a chosen mate will have its own consequences. For what you did to my mate … well, she
