Life’s Spiced Up with Some Werewolf Reads
Madi, fresh from Princeton with offers from Harvard and Yale, should be thrilled—but she’s burned out and bitter about privilege. When her brother loses his scholarship, she vows to pay his tuition herself. The only way? A high-paying Wall Street job. With her rebellious best friend cheering her on, Madi sets out to infiltrate the world she despises.
“Show me your concepts.” “Good to see you, too.” Her smile tells me she’s unfazed by my rudeness. “Thank you for the food delivery the other night. I have enough leftovers in my freezer for the month now.” I don’t answer. I still don’t know why I did it. Something about hearing her stomach growl…
She pops out of her chair, and I instantly regret giving her an escape. “I’ll be on my way. I need to pick up supplies for the job.” I pull out my gold Amex and hand it to her. Her thick lashes pop open when she reaches to take it. I don’t relinquish the card,…
Not only that, but I’m doing it better than he ever did. The student has become the teacher, and it’s time my dad learned this lesson. “You came to my city and met with my pack’s enemies before knocking on my door. You’re a weak alpha, leading an unimportant pack. You can’t do much more…
I just have to ask. “Did you remove the light fixture yourself?” He frowns. “Of course.” “Wow.” He lifts his brows. “You find that impressive?” “Well, you don’t strike me as the handyman type.” He gives a faint shrug. “My father was the definition of toxic masculinity,” he says. “There is no man-job I wasn’t…
His face is that blank mask, but he seems reluctant to let me go. I can’t say I mind. After a moment, his grip eases, and he strides to the door without another word. A delivery guy stands there with three large bags. Must be lunch-it smells heavenly. Like Thai food. He takes bags and…
“I’m talking to Aubrey,” she tells him. To me, she says, “But he’s also very good at knowing what people want. That’s what makes him a brilliant strategist. So maybe he’d be a decent lay.” “You’re going to stop that conjecture right now,” Brick growls, and Madi shrieks, like he just picked her up or…
With the Brooklyn bridge in the background. That’s your work, right?” I sense her surprise. “One of my earliest public pieces, yes.” “I like it.” I sound grudging, and I am. I don’t want to like anything made by a human-especially not this one who drives me insane, but the mural is colorful and wild.…
“Watch.” The footage rolls, showing a constant stream of street traffic exiting Adalwulf Associates. A few seconds in, a familiar face shows up. Sully hits pause and zooms in. It’s my dad. This video is proof that he took a meeting with my pack’s sworn enemy. I shouldn’t feel betrayed by my father’s actions, but…
I was only five when they found that hunter in the woods. At the time, my sister was my babysitter. She held me close while my father ranted and raved about humans and how weak they are. “They think they can take over the earth! But they’re weak.” The disgust in his voice made me…
I’m just trying to think what he might be up to.” Goosebumps rise on my arms. “You suspect he’s up to something?” “I don’t know. It’s hard to trust him after everything. And he doesn’t like…” She sucks in a breath. “He doesn’t like what?” She hesitates again. “Uh…well, I just have found him to…
