VICTOR "I didn't expect to be using the pack cemetery so soon," Saint mused as she ambled toward me out of the thicket. I glared at the four unmarked graves with a sigh. We had cleared out a section of land a few miles away from the pack house which now served as a graveyard. For a long while, the land was left unused but we had wolves maintaining it for when we did need it. "I never expected that the first time we used this place, would be for this," I added onto Saint's musings while massaging the ache at the back of my neck. She hummed in response, standing shoulder to shoulder with me, "Let me guess," Saint followed my gaze to the heap of sand in front of me which hid a mangled body beneath, "That's where you put Jason."Loosening a breath, I offered her a stiff nod. "Listen, Big man, you can't bring him to life to kill him all over again. Whatever's bothering you for you to be standing here with that withering glare, let it go. It's not healthy for you," she placed a hand be

DEA"Is this what you put poor Sin through," I sat on the earthen floor as naked as a newborn baby with my knees hugged to my chest. Pain ricocheted through my body. With every muscle twitch, a thunderous ache followed, leaving me a sprawling heap on the floor. It was getting easier though. Admittedly, I knew Saint was only trying to help me but that didn't mean I didn't partially loathe her for it. "He's fine now. At least he has no trouble shifting. It's painless for him now. Pretty soon, it will be painless for you, too. Maybe just a few more shifts. I know it hurts, but it's not just the shifting that's causing your pain. It's the grueling combat training and your time in the gym, too. Your muscles aren't used to it but they will be soon. You just have to keep at it," Saint encouraged from behind me. I could picture her soft gaze as she prompted me to keep going. "I swear, I'm not built for this," came another one of my complaints with a wh

VICTOR We stopped at the tree and got dressed. Saint had taken Dea's glasses away so I carried her on my back so she wouldn't walk into anything or trip and fall face-first. I loved the feeling of her nuzzling her face between my shoulder blades, inhaling deeply as if my scent calmed her. Her legs locked around me tightly, arms around my neck sending an assault of sparks shooting up my spine. I wanted to bring her to the front, thrust her against a tree, and bury myself in her. The thought of claiming her like that had my dick twitching in my pants. It had only been two days since we had been intimate and yet it felt as if I had spent years in a dry spell. Blood rushed to my cock which began pitching a tent around my crotch. I mentally chided myself and forced my mind to concentrate on anything else. Like the fact, I was about to see Sydney again. Something felt amiss at the thought. An empty, dark chasm opened in my chest when I thought of her. That pl

DEA I wasn't sure what to make of it. After everything that happened with Jason, I thought we had cleared all our hurdles. At least, that was a hurdle in the relationship Victor and I shared. This was a different kind of hurdle entirely. This was not only an attempt on Victor's pack, but also on his life. It put things into perspective. I acknowledged the risks that came with being in a relationship with Victor. Acknowledging them and facing them in reality were two very different things. The thought of losing Victor had a sharp, acidic tang of bile crawling up my throat. I forced it down but the bitterness coated my tongue. It scared me. My fear was palpable and no doubt loud by the way Victor clasped my hand in his and offered a reassuring squeeze. It drowned out my insecurities about Sydney being here. By the way Victor regarded her with an almost cold exterior, I almost felt sorry for the girl. She didn't deserve the knotted ball of wool t

VICTOR I inhaled deeply, held my breath for five seconds, and then exhaled slowly and steadily as I shut the door. Dea's thoughts were so loud throughout the night I had to build up a mental block between us until she learned to protect her thoughts. Her worry echoed down the bond. Her fear reverberated through my body. Her love spilled into my heart and slithered into the marrow of my bones. I had allowed her thoughts to bombard my head, allowed them to infiltrate like a feral animal gnawing at my sanity. But when her thoughts of loving me fluttered around my mind like a beautiful fragile butterfly that could be squashed at any given moment, I built that wall and kept it up. Everyone had dispersed to their respective rooms. It was late and I didn't want to risk driving back to the city at this hour. The chances of us getting ambushed were high and I had confidence that I could protect Dea. However, I wasn't about to fool myself into thinking I could take out a pack of rogues when I

DEA"Hands up or your opponent will easily strike you. Protect your face at all costs so you can anticipate their next strike," Quade ordered. We were only fifteen minutes into my usual hour combat class but I already heaved for air while my lungs threatened to vacate my body to find a new owner that would take better care of them. I had gone to work this morning with three wolves patrolling the building. Victor had even ordered a wolf to trail Erica. As my best friend, she had a target on her back. Or, at least, that was what Sydney implied and Sylvain agreed—something about that happening to her mother's best friend. Of course, I didn't have the heart to tell Erica about everything that was happening. She was already keeping in tune with the office gossip for me. According to the latest office news, a rumor had spread like wildfire that Jason had eloped with one of the interns. Apparently, he and the intern had a relationship for over a year behind my back, and now that Jason and
Alpha Victor Chapter 50
VICTORMy paws thundered against the earthen floor, snapping fallen branches and dried leaves in my wake. A flurry of heavy breaths and howls sounded as a pack of five of us cut our way through the forest toward the sanctuary. Alec had enlisted two other wolves to help him with his breaking and entering abilities along with the theft of blood. We hadn't had to go to a blood bank at all. There was a local blood drive in town to encourage people to donate. We simply tapped into their supply. I was sure they wouldn't miss the ten bags we had nabbed. We made sure to snatch the common types so they could be easily restocked. I accompanied them—along with Saint—to make sure things went as planned and none of the wolves got any nefarious ideas. The duffle hung from my jaw, sharp teeth piercing through the knitted handles. I was as gentle as I could be as I dodged thick roots that arched from the ground and large boulders that served as unrelenting obstacles in my path. A foreboding sensatio
Alpha Victor Chapter 51
DEAI had never witnessed murder before. Not with my eyes at least. I went from a wide-eyed, wet-behind-the-ears scientist to this—whatever this was. Jason's death was something that haunted my dreams. In the darkest hours when the shadows grew thicker and the cold was icier, the ominous sound of his neck snapping under pressure weaseled its way into my dreams. Daylight hours were easier to ignore the relentless echo of it which gnawed at my sanity like a dog with a bone. This. This was different. This wasn't murder. This was a massacre and all I could do was sit back and watch as if this was some morbid scene out of Twilight. Except, the vampires didn't shimmer here and the wolves were far more feral. This wouldn't worm its way into my dreams. This would become a night terror, stuck on repeat each time my eyes fluttered shut. I'd never crave the warm embrace of sleep ever again. Because, now, it felt more like claws peeling layers of my skin back instead of the reprieve it was mea
