Intoxicating as Hell

KIERANThe limo cut through the city streets and the silence was driving me insane. Leah sat next to me staring out the window, watching the trees blur past. She thought she was hiding behind that calm mask, but she had no clue. Every single breath she took hit my senses like a weapon.Her scent wasn't normal today.The natural fragrance of her body, those soft lily and vanilla notes, was laced with something richer, sharper, and intoxicating as hell. The pheromones of a she-wolf who'd finally broken free from her chains.Shit.The scent filled the car, hammering at my senses and waking up the Lycan inside me. It was clawing at my control, demanding I claim her right then and there.I clenched my fists on my knees, fighting to keep it together. The burning in my chest was insane. Since that first night she showed up at my mansion, the bond had been torturing me.Every time I got close to her, my blood boiled in recognition of its other half. But whenever I looked at Leah's guarded fac

Leftovers

KIERAN I stared at Cain across the room, locked my gaze onto his shaking eyes.And I made sure he saw my hand resting against his ex-wife's exposed back.I curled my lips into a slow smile. Mocking. Filled with triumph.He stared back, and from my expression alone, he got the message.Take a good look at her, Cain. You spent eight years trampling a priceless gem under your feet. Now I'm going to use her to destroy your empire.From across the hall, I noticed movement. Cain Hargrove finally stepped forward, cutting through the crowd with his jaw clenched tight. His wounded ego was looking for an outlet.Celeste Kingham followed behind him, trying to look superior. Her eyes shifted away the moment they hit mine.From Cain's body language, rigid shoulders and overly forceful strides, I knew exactly what he was. Afraid. Terrified to see the woman he'd thrown away now standing at my side."Draven," Cain said as he stopped a few steps away.His voice was deliberately lowered, trying to sou

Protected

LEAH His massive, solid hand landed on my bare lower back again. The touch was slow, warm, and so possessive it sent heat coursing through every nerve in my body. Kieran pulled me close with one gentle tug, drawing me flush against his rock-hard frame. I looked up, taking in his sharp jawline from the side. He wasn't looking at me. His ice-gray eyes were fixed on the Lunas, who were now pretending to mind their own business out of pure fear. "You're safe with me," Kieran whispered again, right against my ear. His warm breath ghosted across my neck, making every hair on my body stand on end. I swallowed hard, letting myself lean into the anchor of his hand. Inside my head, a storm of confusion was raging. How could there be a man who treated me like this? For eight years as Cain Hargrove's wife, "protection" meant silence. Every time Celeste or some Ironveil bigshot took a dig at my lineage or my weakness, Cain told me to shut up. "Ignore them, Leah. Don't make a scene th

The Trap

LEAH The lingering scent of victory from the auction hall apparently wasn't enough to settle the weird pounding in my chest. Under the horrified stares of the Lunas and the look of stunned amazement on Kieran's face, I suddenly felt suffocated. I needed air. "Kieran, I need to hit the bathroom real quick. Touch up my makeup," I whispered to him just as the second auction session was about to kick off. Kieran didn't answer right away. His large fingers wrapped around my wrist, holding it gently but firmly. His gray eyes stared at me with this intense focus, like he was reluctant to let me out of his sight even for a second. "Don't take too long. There are a lot of hungry wolves out here." "I can take care of myself," I replied, slowly pulling my hand free and flashing a thin smile I'd deliberately put on as a cover. He finally nodded and let me go. I walked out of the loud main hall and made my way down the quieter, dimmer side corridor of the Territorial Building. I stopped in

Madness

LEAH"Cut the fucking crap, Leah. I know you're just bluffing," Cain said, his face going dark red as he fought to hold his anger in."You destroyed my life, Cain. And now I'm with a man who is so much stronger, so much more of a man, and so much smarter than you, to make sure your empire gets ground into dust.""You treacherous bitch!" Cain roared. His deeply wounded Alpha ego made him lose all rational thought. He raised his free left hand, swinging it through the air, ready to slap my face. It was a rough reflex he'd used plenty of times whenever I dared to push back against his authority in the past.But Cain's hand never got to touch my skin.From the darkness of the corridor behind him, a hand that was far larger, far more muscular, and laced with prominent veins shot forward like lightning. It caught Cain's wrist mid-air with one brutal snap.Crack!The sound of forced-joint compression echoed horribly through the quiet corridor. Cain shrieked in pain, his face going instantly

Eat, Mate and Dagger

Our car pulled away from the territorial hall the moment the event wrapped up. I didn't say much, just stayed quiet, taking in the sky that had already started to darken and the bite of the car's AC against my skin."Where do you want to go for dinner?" he asked, breaking the silence between us.I turned toward him, not reacting right away because my ears couldn't believe what they'd just heard."Aren't you hungry?" he asked again."Or do you just want to eat whatever's at the house?" Kieran added."Don't be so nice to me, because nothing you do will ever wash my father's blood off your hands." I shot back coldly and went back to watching the rows of pine trees outside the window."Leah, I'm going to keep my promise.""Good.""But before that, you and I both need dinner," Kieran pressed."Whatever. I can eat anything," I said without looking at him. Irritation prickled at me because in the end my ego still lost to the way Kieran treated me—so gentle, so kind."Alright then. I'll take

Dancing With Enemy

LEAH Soft classical piano music drifted through the air, mingling with the crash of the waves and the cold caress of the bay breeze. Kieran stepped back a few paces, extended his hand toward me, raised an eyebrow, and let a smile curve across his lips. "Come on, let's dance." "What?" I frowned. "The music? You hear it, right?" Of course I do, Kieran. I'm not deaf. I hear it, and something wild inside me already wants to throw myself at you like some cheap woman. But no, no—I'm not here to dance with my enemy. Kieran should've stopped the second he saw my unfriendly reaction, but he was stubborn enough to keep walking toward me, hand still outstretched. "Come on, just this once, as a reward for handing my life over to you," Kieran pleaded, his expression a complete one-eighty from the Kieran at the territorial hall earlier. "While there's no one else here," he insisted. "But I'm not good at dancing." "I'll teach you." I stood, took his hand, and his other hand cupped my hip—

I'm Not Your Enemy

KIERANFuck.I gripped the edge of the solid teak desk in my study so hard the veins in my forearms bulged. That burning heat crawled up my spine, setting my Lycan blood on fire like molten lava. Outside the massive window, the full moon hung perfectly round, blazing with that silvery glow.Heat.The effect of this full moon was hitting me a hundred times harder than usual. Every predator instinct inside me was howling like crazy, clawing at the walls of my mind, demanding one thing and one thing only: Leah Callahan.The scent of her lily pheromones that had melted during our dance on the sky deck earlier still clung thick in my nose, torturing my sanity without mercy. My body remembered exactly how her waist fit perfectly in my hands, and how her chest rose and fell against mine.I knew Leah felt the same. I saw her eyes darken and the way her omega body trembled, fighting the same wild lust.We were both in heat, bound to each other. We were mates.But the woman still hadn’t realize

The Heat

LEAHThe patter of water was the only sound breaking the silence of my night. I stood under the shower, letting the cold spray pour over my whole body.But the rush of cold water did nothing. My body still burned, like there was some insane fire boiling right inside my blood.The heat crawled up from my spine, scorching through my stomach, until my chest was heaving for oxygen that suddenly felt thin.And damn, every drop of water touching my bare skin sent a sensitive, torturous sensation through me. I gripped the wall with violently trembling fingers, whimpering softly as my core throbbed with a wild, senseless need, slick heat already gathering between my thighs despite the chill.The irrational jealousy I'd felt after watching Velvet trail behind Kieran earlier had transformed into a hunger that was pounding at the walls of my consciousness.After shutting off the shower with a rough jerk, I stepped out, still wet. Breathing hard, I reached for a thin black silk slip dress with lo

First Knot

LEAHA broken whimper tore from my throat. The bond snapped fully into place inside me, flooding every cell with overwhelming need. My wolf surrendered completely, melting into submission.Kieran didn’t give me time to think. With a low, possessive growl that vibrated through my entire body, he surged forward, lifting me effortlessly and pinning me against the nearest wall. His massive frame caged me in, one thick thigh shoving between my legs to spread them wide as his mouth claimed mine again.This time his kiss was pure domination—deep, demanding, his tongue fucking into my mouth in slow, filthy strokes that left me gasping and dizzy. I followed his rhythm instinctively, my tongue sliding against his, sucking and tasting every dominant thrust he gave me while my hands clutched desperately at his broad shoulders.His bandaged hand yanked the thin spaghetti straps of my silk slip down my arms, baring my breasts to the cool air. The wet fabric pooled around my waist as he palmed one h
