“I saw what she plans to do. She wants to take Skye away from us. We brought her into our home and took care of her. She’s mated to our Beta. I don’t understand how she could be so cruel.” Selene shakes her head. “You speak as if she’s already done that dirty deed. I must remind you that nothing has happened yet.” I say nothing, the anger still coursing through me. “Remember the premonition you had about your mate’s death?” My mind goes back to that time, and I shudder. I remember having to live through that. I was terrified that the happiness I just found would be taken away from me so soon. I didn’t even care about what I saw happening to me; I was just worried about Aston. “The images you saw didn’t happen, did they?” My mind replays everything, including the choi

~Katarina~I’m not sure that was how things were supposed to go. What would you have me do, Hope? She’s a threat to our child, to our family. Was I supposed to ignore that and play nice?We could have at least gotten the whole story before locking her up. I sigh, knowing that Hope is right. The plan was to go to her room and talk to her. I had no intention of getting aggressive or locking her up. The moment I put my eyes on her, I just couldn’t help it. The premonition kept running through my mind, and I couldn’t ignore the emotions that came from that. I walk into the office and throw myself on the couch. I stare up at the ceiling and let out a long sigh. “Can I take it that things didn’t go well?” I don’t move from my spot, not wanting to face my mate. “Katarina?” I swallow and shift my body. I want to be comfortable, but I don’t think that’s possible under the circumstances. I feel the couch shift under me as his heat covers me completely. As soon as I feel the sparks on my arm

I’m not sure how long we sat in silence, but she’s the first to break it. “I never thought I’d see a Beta just sitting in front of a cell.” I feel my lip turn up, but I keep my head down. “Life is full of surprises. I found that out in a way that would probably be too real for most people.”“Ain’t that the truth?” I slowly bring my head up and look at her. She looks drained and hollow. Her back is resting against the wall, and her head is pushed back, her eyes closed. There’s a weight in her voice that makes waves.“You’ve had a life of surprises?” “If you want to call it that.” I want to ask more, but I don’t want her to shut me out like she has been. “I’ve been alone a long time. I’ve been alone even before I was alone.” I sit up a bit straighter, hoping that she will tell me more. “My dad died when I was 16, ou

~Brackston~I lean back in my chair, replaying the entire conversation. I’m not embarrassed to admit that my dick was hard the entire time, and it’s still hard now. I’m not sure what it is about that girl, but I want her so badly.It wasn’t the smartest idea to have her on a video call, but I needed to appease Khan. He was making life difficult because he wanted her here with us. Seeing her just made everything harder. It made me want to throw the plan out the window, bring her back here, and bury my dick inside of her. It took everything in me to fight that instinct and let the conversation play out the way it needed to.I’ve asked my wolf about this, and he’s sure that she isn’t our fated mate. That isn’t even the point, though, because he wants her as badly as I do. I’m not sure what the future holds for us, but I am sure that she’s going to be next to me in some capacity.I was never one hung up on the mate bond. I didn’t really care to think about it, and I never thought that it

I let my feet lead me, and it doesn’t take long before I’m back down in the cells. The guards move as soon as they see me. They don’t ask any questions, but that’s to be expected. I’m their Luna, their Alpha’s mate. There are really no questions that they could ask. My feet don’t stop moving until I’m in front of her again. She’s lying on the cot with her front facing the wall. She looks smaller this way, looks much more fragile. I have to admit that I wasn’t being the best version of myself when I sent her down here. This is the first way I can make things right. “I’m sorry.” Her body moves at the sound of my voice, but not by much. “I was thinking as a scared parent and forgot to approach this as a Luna… a gold wolf.”“You don’t owe me that. I… I’m sorry. I came here with ill intentions.”“Did you, though?” I move closer to her cell door, still talking to her back. “Based on what you said to Dominic, you didn’t really decide to do any harm to our child or us. You may have been sent
