Dahlia’s breath caught, her mind scrambling to make sense of his words.“Brother?” Lupin shot back, his voice sharp.“You heard me,” Gahn said, his tone cool, then glanced at Dahlia’s paling face and moved just in time to grab her before she crumpled.“Get your hands off her,” Lupin growled.“Your bride?” Gahn smirked. “Not anymore, brother. I challenged you.“Stop calling me that,” Lupin snapped.Hunter and Bram stepped up behind Lupin, their presence looming.“Well, look who’s back,” Gahn drawled, shifting Dahlia’s weight in his arms, her head resting against his chest. “You three should start a club.”“Let her go,” Lupin demanded.“Or what?” Gahn shot back, tightening his grip.Todd and Jason stepped between them, hands raised. “Enough. At the end of the day, it’s her call, not yours.”Gahn carried her to a room and laid her on the bed, his gaze lingering. “You’re stunning,” he muttered under his breath.Dahlia’s eyes fluttered open, narrowing as she caught him staring. She bolted

Day 4 of the week before Christmas, Bergen packGahn’s eyes were still shut when she stirred awake, half draped over him. Her robe had slipped open, and his arm was curled around her bare skin.“Just checking your temperature,” he muttered, not bothering to open his eyes.“Oh… Thanks for staying. I thought Todd was here.”“He was,” Gahn replied, finally cracking one eye open. He shifted, turning to face her.Dahlia met his gaze, those oddly deep blue eyes locking onto hers.“Can I kiss you?” he asked, his voice low.“Last night didn’t seem to bother you,” she shot back, but his lips brushed hers anyway, soft and lingering.“Alright, up you go. We’ve both got things to do,” Gahn said, pulling his arm out from under her. He couldn’t help but glance at her as she got up, muttering curses under his breath.She stood, tying her robe, looking thoroughly bewildered. When she moved toward the bathroom, he stepped in her path, pulling her into a quick hug.“You’re making this even more confusi

Dahlia slipped her arm through his as they strolled down the main street, pausing at a shop filled with ornaments. She lingered, browsing the displays, when Gahn stepped behind her, pressing a kiss to her neck that sent a ripple of warmth through her. He unwrapped his scarf and draped it around her shoulders. She sighed, closing her eyes for a moment.“Thanks, Gahn,” she murmured before turning back to the ornaments. She picked out a few for the pups to play with, paid, and they walked on. Gahn stopped abruptly.“I need to pop into this shop,” he said. “I’ll meet you by the truck.”“Alright,” she replied, heading inside. Brian greeted her with a grin.“It’s ready. Wanna see it before I wrap it up?” he asked, handing her the original photos. One of them was torn.She shuffled through the pictures, finding the damaged one and flipping it over. This is your true alpha, Dahlia. Love, Mom.“Great,” she muttered to herself. “Where’s the other half? Which one, Mom? Four of them… I could’ve u

“I covered your eyes so I wouldn’t get lost in them,” he said.“Bullshit. Try again,” she shot back.“I want you,” he murmured.“That’s true, but it’s not the whole truth,” she teased.“Damn, you’re good. How do you do that?” he asked, half-laughing.“Magic,” she said, her hand grazing his face, fingers slipping into his mouth as she exhaled softly.“Fuck, Dahlia, you’re so tuned into me. I can’t handle it. I’m losing it. Come on, let’s hit the shower and get back to bed.”She made a sad face. He climbed on top of her, pressing his weight down, kissing her until she gasped for air. “Don’t stop now,” she whispered, her voice low.Their skin burned against each other. He eased into her, and she arched into him with a sharp gasp, her body responding to every movement. He took his time, teasing her as his mouth traced her breast. Her nails dug into his back, her moans growing louder until he muffled them with his mouth. She came undone beneath him, and as he pulled away, he finished on he

"Move your ass, Bram," Gahn snarled, his voice low and dangerous.Bram stepped aside quickly. "She’s been poisoned. The bullet was laced with something."Gahn dragged a chair to the bedside, his hand brushing her cheek. "Who the hell wants her dead? That’s the question, isn’t it? I left her alone to figure things out, and now this. But guess what? I’m not walking away. Not now, not ever."Todd and Jason exchanged a glance."Alright, Gahn, you take the first watch," Todd said. "I’ll relieve you in a few hours.""I’m not leaving her," Gahn snapped. "Bram, how bad is it?""I’m running tests on the poison. I’ve given her the antidote, she should wake up soon.""Good. Now get out, all of you," Gahn ordered. The door clicked shut behind them.Dahlia trudged through the snow, alone, until a sound made her turn. Her mother stood there, radiant as ever."Mommy!" Dahlia threw her arms around her."Listen carefully, my child," her mother said softly. "I spoke to the goddess. She granted me one w
