Chapter 9 Thane Under the damn bed. My heart aches for the little Omega. To be rescued from a cage, only to feel safer hiding underneath a bed is terrible. The revelation she has no family left is a gut–wrenching pain I’m all too familiar with. Quick flashbacks of my
Chapter 8 Chapter S Just as I put my hands on the bed to push myself off the floor, Thane sweeps under my legs and I quickly slide my arm around his neck, causing my fingers to brush through the hair at the base of his neck, eliciting a shiver
Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Ayla Apparently, I can’t rest without feeling confined. It’s impossible to shut my mind off and I feel out in the open, exposed in this bed. I’m exhausted and I know my brain is fighting to stay awake out of fear, but I can’t do this
Chapter 6 Thane 10 years. Not months likes the others. YEARS. 10 freaking years she was kept by disgusting monsters. 10 years she was locked away in a cage while shifters abused her. “Protect. Kill them all” Ronan loudly growls into my mind; pushing against the barrier, trying to force
Chapter 5 Ayla “Finish your meal sweetie or you and your sister will be spending your free time weeding the courtyard instead of sneaking off the grounds without security, thinking you will never get caught.” Mom states matter of fact, her attempt at getting us to eat more failing when
Chapter 4 Thane Underneath one pissed off looking scumbag shifter are the biggest, almond shaped scared teal eyes I have ever seen. In fact, I have never seen a wolf with those eyes before. I’m immediately transfixed despite the swelling of one, and blood all over the other. They are
Chapter 3 Ayla A tall, broad chested man approaches through the dust. He appears taller than the door frame. Cloaked by shadows, I can only see the flicker of his gold eyes, and the outline of his body cast from the light. I can hear the clunk of his boots
Chapter 2 Thane The meeting room is full as my team and I review tonight’s mission and go over the plan with a fine-toothed comb. There’s no room for error in this raid. Our informant is positive this underground holding facility currently houses the third in command of the shifter
Chapter 1 Ayla I’m confused. My head is pounding and I can barely shift my eyes behind my lids because it hurts too damn bad. The smell of mildew and piss quickly reminds me that I am still captive in my 5×5 cage underground. My piss bucket was probably knocked
Chapter 439 90 – Ben “What the hell are these crazy witches doing?” I whisper out as we edge closer to the treeline. If my sense of direction is right, we are directly south of Elara’s packhouse, but far enough away that it might be considered neutral territory. I don’t
Chapter 438 “That was probably the plan.” Dev muses. “I’ll stay here, you guys go. Let’s check in…say an hour?” I nod. “Get Marietta down here, I am not above letting her work with Elara to forcefully get answers out of him. And have Brianna check in on Juliette. As
Chapter 437 89 – Ben I grab the door frame to keep me steady as my vision blurs. Elara’s all consuming despair blinds me. I feel a grip on my shoulder, but can’t seem to focus no matter how hard I blink. Warbled sounds are getting louder in my head.
Chapter 205 Space The kiss was fierce and desperate, years of restraint pouring out in that single moment. It wasn’t gentle but raw, reckless, and fueled by everything he had never dared to say. Candice stiffened in shock at first, her hands pressing against his chest. Her eyes widened, breath
Chapter 204 The Problem Osman stood beside Candice, eyes sharp and jaw tight. He pulled her back a step, placing himself between her and Zander. “You’re not going anywhere with him,” Osman said. Candice yanked her hand free. “Let go of me.” “I won’t,” he snapped. “Not into something like
Chapter 203 Absolutely Not Candice did not like waiting. She stood at the mouth of the stone path with her arms crossed, eyes narrowed as she stared at Arlan’s broad back while he walked ahead of her, lantern in hand. The deeper they went, the cooler the air became. The
Chapter 269 Ben, I’m sorry. If it’s possible to love after death, then I will still love you. There were several dried tear stains on the paper, left from when Yvonne had been crying as she wrote it. The letter had clearly been read countless times since it reached Bennett;
Chapter 268 Bennett sat quietly on the sofa, his expression as cool as ever. He looked normal, but his eyes were unfocused, a clear sign that he was drunk. After seeing Simon out, Helen hurried to the kitchen to make some sobering soup. “I’ll go make some soup, Ms. Jones,”
Chapter 267 Helen’s words left Teresa and Jeffrey speechless with shame. They had indeed neglected Yvonne over the years, and now, it seemed too late to make amends. Helen supported Yvonne as they led the way out of the room. Bennett followed behind them, carrying the discharge papers in one
Chapter 266 “That degenerate gambler? After Megan went to prison, no one was funding his lifestyle. I hear he’s fallen on hard times,” Sandra said. Yvonne continued, “Queena may be George’s illegitimate daughter, but according to the official story, we were switched at birth, which makes her my adoptive father’s
Chapter 265 When Thomas arrived, he came bearing an abundance of gifts-flowers, fruit, and all sorts of nutritional supplements. He sat by her bedside, his eyes filled with apology as he looked at her. “I’m so sorry. You were seriously injured because of me.” “It was just an accident. It
