RILEYStartled, I lost my footing, and I was about to fall when the man reached out and grabbed my wrist to stabilize me.“Whoa, easy there, darlin’,” he drawled with amusement as his large hand held onto me tightly. “I gotcha.”“T-thanks,” I stammered as I blinked up at him. “Sorry about that, I wasn’t paying attention.”“No need to apologize,” the man assured me smoothly. “Happens to the best of us. You just need to watch where you’re going so you don’t go hurting yourself. Wouldn’t want to scratch that pretty face of yours.”As my racing heart settled, I took a look at him. He was almost as tall as Killian, broad like most male werewolves seemed to be, and very muscular. With his dark, salt-and-pepper hair, I estimated him to be in his late forties, early fifties, and there was something ruggedly handsome and vaguely familiar about him. Just before the man released my hand, he squeezed it gently. His dark gray eyes glinted as they trailed over me, and it was impossible to ignore t

KILLIANPack slut.Bradley suggesting that I kept Riley around like some sort of companion for my Pack to share, like she was just a common hooker or mistress to use at my whim, sparked a rage in my gut that made my wolf nearly stir.I wanted to throttle the Moon Ridge Alpha for the mere suggestion, but I managed to stay in control as I gave a clipped response.“She isn’t that kind of woman.”He seemed too drunk to notice the coldness in my tone, his expression remaining amused rather than offended. “I’m just saying. She might enjoy it. All of that attention… the pleasure. Humans are difficult to read, but with the right amount of coaxing… I bet she would open right up. And the pretty sounds she would make…”The double entendre was even more despicable.“I don’t care how many other women you want to fuck,” I said icily, my nails biting into my palms. “But you’ll stay away from her.”My voice pulsed lightly in my Alpha tone. I hadn’t intended to show that kind of hostility, but my ange

RILEYAs Killian eyes locked on mine, I found myself unable to step away.“I’m sorry,” he mumbled.“For what?” I questioned, my throat tightening. This felt too much like a trap.He sat up, his movements a bit sluggish. Strands of his snow-white hair fell into his eyes, and for a second, he seemed unguarded and younger than usual.“I didn’t know that you called me five years ago,” he said. “Something else happened during that time, and… I was on my own out in the forest. I never got your call. Someone else answered the phone, and… they never told me you called. If I’d known…”His voice trailed off.I didn’t respond at first. This wasn’t entirely news to me, but the part about him spending time in the forest made me pause.What did he mean by that? And if he had known I was pregnant… what would he have done?“Come sit with me?” he asked, sounding a little eager.I shouldn’t have agreed, but I found my almost captivated by him like this. His tipsy smile, the unusual softness in his tone

RILEYI could tell that Dominic was angry with me.It didn’t take a genius to interpret his body language or his silence, and he refused to meet my eyes when we arrived back at his room. Instead, he sat down on the rug in the middle of the room and picked up his woolly mammoth plush, gently petting its fur.Normally, the sight would have soothed me and warmed my heart, but I was still too disappointed by his behavior to ease up entirely.“Domi,” I prompted him, and when he ignored me, I repeated myself more firmly. “Dominic. Can you look at me?”When he remained quiet, I tucked my hand out of sight and squeezed it into a tight fist like a stress ball. Despite my deep frustration, I had to maintain my calm, at least enough to have a serious discussion with him.It wasn’t just the fact that he’d attacked the little boy that morning; there were other instances too from just these past few days alone. Whether it was speaking with other children forcefully and bossing them around, or sassi

RILEYAfter our evening of exploring the forest, Domi was completely exhausted.Getting him through dinner was a bit of a chore, and he kept nodding off, but I managed to get him into the bath without too much fuss.“I liked the forest, Mommy,” he mumbled sleepily as I shampooed his hair.“I know, sweetie,” I murmured, smiling to myself as he gave a cute little cat-like yawn. “Stay awake for a little longer, okay? I’m almost done.”“Okay,” he whispered, and I was pleased when he remained pliant and cooperative.This was the version of Domi I recognized; gentle and happy, his big blue eyes innocent and sweet.Minding his state of exhaustion, I finished quickly, and after carefully toweling him off, I helped him into his pajamas.“Can we play in the forest again tomorrow, Mommy?” he whispered as I tucked him into bed. “With Killian?”“Maybe,” I said vaguely as I secured the blankets around him and handed him his plushie. “We’ll have to see.”I expected pushback, but Domi was evidently t
