The Alpha in Darkness

Imogen nods and her eyes dart to me, “You’re okay, Evelyn?” “I’m fine; he just got upset at something I said,” I tell her. My hand moves to Thaddeus’ face; he leans into it, relaxing more, and I can feel Imogen and Theo’s eyes watching us, watching their son’s reaction to me. Theo smiles softly…

“I am kidnapping your mate again,” she tells Orion, who looks to Ryland. “Why?” he asks, not even hiding his disapproval. “Geez, what is your problem? It is shopping; I am not taking her to some whore house,” she snaps. “Did Thaddeus approve this?” he asks. Amara crosses her arms over her chest, pouting, making…

“Evelyn?” she says, looking a little taken aback. I hear car doors, making me look over my shoulder. Orion and Ryland hop out of the car, but they stay back, just watching instead of approaching. April’s eyes dart to them nervously, making me wonder if she recognizes them. If she does, she says nothing. I…

“Can werewolves even get drunk?” I ask, curious. Imogen nods. “Yes, I can. So can Amara and Thaddeus. Them not so much, they just like the taste. It takes a lot for them,” she states. Tobias tosses one to Ryland, but Orion shakes his head when offered one. Imogen grabs a bottle of wine from…

Lifting my hips, he growls softly, pulls his teeth from my neck, and pulls my leggings down, leaving me naked under him as dizziness washes over me. Thaddeus sits up, looking down at me. “Thaddeus, she is nearly unconscious; leave her be,” Ryland warns, and I hear Thaddeus growl. I am fighting to remain conscious…

Orion stares down at me for a second, nods, and I look back at Thaddeus, who has a devious smirk on his face, making me smile back at him. He kisses me softly as he pushes my legs open and rests between them. “No biting,” I warn him, and he chuckles against my lips, deepening…

“What do you mean?” I ask, curious. “Now that they have marked you, you will go into heat, and to answer your next question, I brought you here hoping to lure my brother home,” she tells me the answer to my next question. “So, you can see the future?” I ask, and she nods as…

“Why does everyone keep saying that? You are aware half the earth is human, right?” I ask, making Imogen chuckle. “Yes, dear, we know that. You’re probably the first human ever to be fated to a supernatural,” she says, making me look just as confused as I feel. “Is that a bad thing?” I ask.…
