Life’s Spiced Up with Some Werewolf Reads
Her words stung, and I fought the urge to snap back. It was clear she harbored some disdain for humans. But Paige wasn’t her Luna, and we weren’t her pack. We were guests here, and the last thing we needed was to cause friction-especially now, when Paige was so vulnerable. “Get rid of her,” Ryder…
Callen’s voice booms through the link. “Hunters closing in! We need to move!” “Let’s move!” I command. “Everyone who can fight, shift and cover the rear!” Remy hauls himself upright, blood still streaking his body. “I’ll take point.” “No,” I growl, glaring at him. “You barely survived last time. You need to recover.” “I’m recovered…
“Fine,” Remy growled. “But if anyone even looks at her wrong, I’ll rip their throat out.” “You’ll get no argument from me,” I said firmly. I meant it-I’d go to war with the entire world for her. The link went quiet for a moment. The only sounds were the rumble of the engines and Jaxon’s…
I drop to my knees, hands trembling as they press into the cold earth. Gold and silver light spills from my palms, flowing into the soil like molten fire. The air grows heavy, pressing down on my chest, and I scream-not in fear, but in pure, unfiltered fury. All the anger, sorrow, and helplessness I’ve…
I glance back at him, then to Paige. “She happened.” He drags himself closer, still weak. “She saved us.” “Yeah,” I say, my voice breaking. “But I don’t know what it cost her.” Suddenly, branches snap behind us, heavy footsteps pounding through the underbrush. I’m halfway to shifting when familiar voices slice through the tension.…
The pack answers with a chorus of howls, a storm of grief and rage, but all I can focus on is that first, desperate cry. The one that means something has gone horribly, irreversibly wrong. Jaxon sobs quietly against Callen’s shoulder, his tiny hand clutching his uncle’s shirt. His soft cries cut through the chaos…
The porch light casts a warm golden glow across the steps, glinting off the dew-covered grass. Everything looks peaceful, as though the world hasn’t just shifted beneath my feet. As if my mother isn’t suddenly a mystery and my bloodline not something out of legend. I wrap my arms around myself and take a deep…
Ronnie’s voice comes through the mind link. “They’ve got snipers in the tree line, thermal scope signatures confirmed. One of ours down already.” Ryder swears under his breath. “Pull the teams back. We need to regroup.” We sprint through the trees, joining the enforcers crouched behind the fallen logs that mark the inner perimeter. The…
“Just a short trip, baby,” I whisper, though my throat tightens and my heart pounds so loudly it drowns out my own words. I pull him close, inhaling the familiar softness of his hair, grounding myself. I have to stay composed-for him. “You’re safe. I’ve got you.” Callen turns, his jaw clenched, eyes hard. “Give…
Two men. Both completely oblivious to how close I was to combusting from sheer flustered tension. This mate bond pull was no joke. Jake with his quiet, careful hands. Leo with his watchful eyes and easy smile. If this was what working at the clinic was going to be like, I might need to start…
