Lloyd Kai Novels & Stories

I said. “Good,” he replied. “Because fear won’t keep you alive.” “Then what will?” His gaze didn’t waver. “Control.” I let out a sharp breath. “There it is again.” “What?” “That word. Control. Like it’s that easy.” “It’s not easy.” “Then stop saying it like it is!” The sparks flared brighter. The bond tightened. Kael stepped closer instantly. “Lower it,” he said. “I’m not doing anything!” “Yes, you are.”

She paid premium for the privacy; he never asked why. Kai Voss, thirty-five, six-three, built like he’d spent half his life lifting his own bodyweight and the other half teaching others to do the same. Dark skin, shaved head, forearms corded from years of handstands and arm balances, tattoos curling like smoke from wrists to shoulders. His voice was low, calm, the kind that made people breathe deeper without realizing it.

But tonight, he was willingly giving up that last piece of his old fortress. Kai stood over a small tray, the sterile, metallic snap of his latex gloves echoing sharply in the quiet room. He adjusted the desk lamp, focusing a tight, bright circle of warm light directly onto Adrian’s bare shoulder blade. The typical swagger in Kai’s movements was absent, replaced by a quiet, reverent focus. This wasn't just another commercial piece; this was the ultimate contract, etched in a medium that couldn't be torn or rewritten.

He just chuckled; a fact that brought me even closer to Louis. "Oh, do you know Bruno Mars, John Mayer, and Beyonce? I produced several of their records, girl.” "Hmm, okay?” I said still not understanding before turning to Louis for answers. "I asked him for a favor, babe,” my husband explained excitedly. “But August said he needed to hear you live first.” “First for what?” I insisted, though I think I knew where he was headed with all of this. "Oh, to make you my next star, of course,” said the fake CeeLo. “I have heard your voice thanks to Louis, but I need to live it live to achieve that connection, do you understand?”

~ODETTE Holy fucking goddess! My heart exploded as the new idiot jumped into my perfect plan. Ruining everything! “Shit!” Lyora cussed under her breath. “Not this guy again.” My senses instantly stood alert at her words. It was clear that the new fool wasn’t random. I scanned him carefully using Nyra’s memory paths. At first I found nothing, until I saw it. He was an old acquaintance of Lyon— the real Lyon. And his pathetic name was Kai.

Liam left and his boss sat down on a chair in front of me. "I realized I didn't introduce myself. I'm Kai Xiao", He said with a smile. It only increased my fear. His face screamed innocence. He reminded me of Nigel and I bursted into tears. Kai wasn't surprised, I couldn't stop it and I wept profusely. He didn't tell me to stop crying, he didn't even look at me. "I understand why you're crying", Kai said. "I didn't think you would jump, it was thrilling. I had to jump in immediately." Kai said still not making any eye contact. "I'm sorry I interrupted the sharks' dinner." He apologized.

Kai was sitting on the windowsill, peeling an orange. "Don't quote Shakespeare at me, Kai," I groaned. "I'm not in the mood." "You did good out there," Kai said. "Sarah owes you her life. That kind of loyalty buys you eyes and ears in the fields." "I didn't do it for the loyalty," I said. "I did it because I remember what it's like to be powerless." Kai tossed a segment of orange at me. I caught it. "That's why you're the Luna," Kai said. "And why Karl was just a boss." He hopped down from the window. "But we have a problem." My stomach dropped. "What now?" "Leo," Kai said. I sat up straight. "Is he hurt?" "No," Kai said. "But he's... shifting." "What?" I stood up. "He's seven. Wolves don't

he said again. My body jerked up instantly at the mention of her. "I'm not trying to pull anything — wait, how'd you guys know I'd be here?" "Kai's pretty good with computers," Ryder shrugged. "Pretty good? I'm a hacking master," Kai boasted, "See, I hacked into your phone and your accounts," "What? I turned my phone off as soon as I left Hawaii,"

Alpha Leonardo; “Is everything needed packed in the luggage?” I asked Liam. “Yes, Leo. Sure, moving to a new country is a good idea? You’ve not spoken to Max or your Luna about it. It’s still very strange to me that you want to leave the pack. You’re not one who loves to travel, not even for bigger events. What's eating you up, Leo? You lost so much weight and also interest in a lot of things. Have known you for ages but I've never seen you this way. There is something going on. Something you are keeping away from Max and I. We can’t help if you don’t speak up,” Liam stood in front of me, his hands resting on his waist.
