He had stripped her damp clothes, dried her, and carried her to his bed much later. Now she lay tangled in his sheets, her skin a canvas of his marks. Each one was a quiet claim that soothed the beast inside him. Dani stirred, but didn’t wake when he pulled the bedding over her. Something shifted in his chest at how right this felt. She was where she belonged. For now, anyway.Every muscle ached as he slipped downstairs, lowering gingerly into the same chair Dani had used with Aidan. He’d barely settled before Aidan appeared beside him.His skin glowed, and he looked very much like the cat that got the cream.Marcus didn’t need to ask what he’d fed on. Jealousy surged again, but he had no strength to punch the bastard. “Well. That was something,” Aidan said with a chuckle.“Shut up.”“There’s a nice, big beauty on your neck, too,” Aidan continued. “If you don't stop...” Marcus let the unfinished threat hang because he was in no state to do anything.Aidan laughed, ignoring his glare

Marcus had just set the delivery bags on the table in the kitchen diner when Aidan appeared.“Morning, lovebirds.”He rolled his eyes, continued plating Dani’s food, and took the seat opposite her. He’d been eating more than usual lately and only survived on Dani’s blood. Now that the mating was complete, would his craving for food fade? And when she was gone, would he still be able to take animal blood? Aidan dropped into a chair next to Dani. Up until last night, he would have already had Aidan by the throat for that. They said territorial instincts ran high during mating, but they dulled once the bond was sealed. It seemed that was true. Dani didn’t seem to know this; her fork hovered mid-air, eyes flickering between him and Aidan as if she was waiting for an explosion. She didn’t know a lot of things.Like why her wolf, Kira, had locked her out entirely last night. He wasn’t aware that could happen, that the wolf could take over entirely and lock out the other half. Only rogues

One blink, Dani was on the roof; the next, she was in the guest bedroom. The world lurched sideways, her stomach churning. Aidan’s hand slipped from her arm, and she staggered. The grin on Aidan’s face was smug. He’d known what teleportation would do to her. Her organs felt like they’d been shaken in a blender. “Sorry,” Aidan said, not sounding sorry at all. “It takes some getting used to. But we need to leave now, so grab your things.”Now? She’d only just said goodbye to Marcus. She could still feel the heat of his kiss.“It’s not safe here, Dani,” Aidan added quietly, as if reading her mind.Her frown must have given her away because he answered without her asking.“I feel what you feel. I feed on it. You and Marcus have been a banquet lately. But you need to leave; this isn’t the right time to talk. Get your big girl panties on and move.”She shook herself out of her misery and grabbed her rucksack off the unmade bed. Marcus’s scent still lingered on the bedding. Her fingers tig

Marcus didn’t know what to think as he went to his father’s floor. He had been so sure he’d been careful. He’d scanned every shadow with all his senses before visiting Dani at the motel and when he’d sneaked her into headquarters. So how the hell had Henrique found out? Did he have someone who could mask themselves from him? Or was Nicholas more than he seemed? A Seer, perhaps? Bonding to a vampire that old had to come with more than just immortality.His hand brushed the invisible mark at his neck, the reminder of Dani’s claim. Could Nicholas have seen through Aidan’s magic?One thing was certain. Henrique already knew about Dani, so his time was running out. His soul mate was already caught up in whatever twisted game the head Elder was playing with Alessandro. She was already in danger.The elevator doors slid open, and sound hit him immediately. Each Elder’s floor was meant to be silent and secure, which meant the noise could only be from one source. His father’s door gaped open,

Dani gave herself one night before answering the Alpha’s summons. Ethan wouldn’t come for her in person—he liked to maintain his polished image among the humans. That made her a little safer in her apartment, at least for now. He also wouldn’t want to look weak by chasing down a female.Even if the female had made a fool of him by vanishing on the night they were meant to have a mating ceremony, where he’d invited several Alphas under his command.The thought made her stomach twist. Her punishment was coming, and she dreaded it. She wanted to give Kira a little more time to recover, in case her wolf needed to defend them both.Sliding out from under a car, she wiped her oil-stained hands with a rug. Taking engines apart and putting them back together always used to calm her, but now it only left her restless. Waiting for the winds to blow her whichever way they decided rubbed her nerves raw.She was used to being in control, so this situation was driving her insane. A run would have s
