Life’s Spiced Up with Some Werewolf Reads
Kasmine dreams of freedom from her controlling stepbrother, Alpha Kester, who rules every part of her life. On her twenty-first birthday, she hopes to find her true mate and escape—but fate betrays her cruelly. Her destined mate is Kester himself, the man she fears most… and he’ll stop at nothing to make her his forever.
She sighed like she’d anticipated the question. “Standard psychological evaluations. Emotional regulation, memory retention, trauma response. The usual for our kind. There were written assessments, observed sessions, and one-on-one interviews. The therapist’s notes indicated that he was, and I quote, ‘stable, recovered, and “I know!” She sobbed. “I know what he did! But you… you…
I blinked at him. My heart felt like it just cracked in two. “Is that all you care about?” My voice broke. “You ruin me, and the only thing you give a fuck about is if your little plan worked?” He didn’t answer. His expression was totally unreadable. I shook my head, bile creeping up…
If only she knew the extent I was willing to go to not only spoil Kasmine but to ruin her…. “Just get everything ready. She’ll be here for the transitioning.” I kissed her cheek and walked out the door into the garage. I slid into the driver’s seat, exhaled, and pulled out my phone. Time…
And my soul dropped. > “You disgusting little bitch. You think no one knows about your little secret with your brother? Well, I do. Tick- tock, sweetheart. I’m closer than you think.” My chest tightened so fast it felt like I’d been punched from the inside. I couldn’t move. Couldn’t think. My trembling fingers scrolled…
“Tell me it didn’t mean anything,” he said softly and brokenly. “Lie to me, Kasmine. Lie just once, and I swear I’ll stop. I couldn’t say it. The phone buzzed again. But all I could hear was the sound of his heart pounding under my hands. My lips trembled. “Kester…” His eyes clenched shut like…

“You sure it’s solid?” I asked in a low voice. Norlan nodded slowly. “It’s everything. Offshore accounts. Tax evasion. Proxy companies tied to human smuggling rings in the Balkans. He thought he could scrub it clean. But that dumb fuck hired some of my old crew two years ago. I know their coding like the…
June stood near the champagne fountain with a cluster of high-class ladies-wives of alphas, heiresses, political daughters Gossiping, I guess. But… Where the hell was Kasmine? My heart gave a hard thump against my ribs, I scanned the ball again, slower this time, but she was nowhere to be found. Fuck Cold panic slowly began…
I opened it. Jake: “Hey, babe. Noticed something weird in my system. Same bug showed up on yours, too, two weeks ago, remember? I think it might’ve spread from Kester’s since they are all in the same proximity. All three systems were on the same network recently, also. Mind if I check his, too? Might…
God, I hated that look on her face-that smug, glittering satisfaction. “Yeah. I can’t ignore your plea for attention. So, here I am. Talk to me.” I said, standing at akimbo. Karina gave a mock gasp, one hand on her chest like she was genuinely touched. “How sweet,” she cooed. “Look at us bonding.” She…
