“There’s someone I’d like you to meet,” Zayne says the next morning, it’s not the first thing he said to me this morning, as we lay sideways, my front to his back, he seduced me with kisses telling me what a good idea it is to stay in bed all day as he trailed his fingers down my belly to the apex of my thighs, rubbing on that sensitive bundle of nerves until I was soaked before pushing two fingers into me. I had murmured that I had patrol with Sky, my voice breathy as he stroked me closer and closer to the edge. His response? To slip his fingers from me, pull my leg back over his and guide his thick erection to my entrance pushing into me slowly so that I felt every inch, every thick vein on his throbbing cock. “When I’m inside you like this, in this bed, the only male name I want to hear from your lips is mine. Just mine” he punctuated his words as he pounded between my legs his voice a growl in my ear. By the time we were done, I was a melted puddle in the bed after two intense

Slowly, I take the seat Zayne vacated my hands in my lap. Nana holds my gaze for a moment, between that, I tell myself not to blot out of there as fast as my legs can carry me. She sniffs her wrinkled nose at me “You smell of emotions. A mess of emotions. Tea?” I frown at her statement then nod. She gets up slowly and shuffles to the cabinets I get up as well, walking around the table and watching her as she makes what I assume is tea. She brings out several plants from a jar and soaks them in warm water, then she sieves them into a coffee pot. “What is this?” “Just some herbs, will help you relax” she serves the tea into two small cups hands me one, and shuffles back to the table. “Come Alexa” Nana calls impatiently. “Huh?” She gives me a confused look like she’s not the one who just called me by the wrong name. I quickly hurry over to the other chair bringing the cup to my lips, I sniff it quietly before taking a small sip. Gagging at the bitter taste. Is it just me or did s

We do a few more emotions. Now that I know what to look for, its easier to grasp Well, it would seem grandma Zayne is right, I can sense the emotions of others, and feel them as if they were my own. “With adequate training, you would be able to tell if someone were lying their ass off” I frowned, slightly disappointed as the awe begins to die down, all the fuss, for this? Whatever happened to telekinesis or healing? Something well, cooler, this is fun, but not cool. I’m unable to resist pouting, of course, I’d get the short end of the stick. “I can smell the frustration on you girl, you are disappointed” she cackles. Her thin shoulders shaking with mirth. “You would be too if you were an updated, walking lie detector” I mumbled shooting her a sour look. “Your gift is more… unique if you will, deadly,” she says with a nod of her head. “Yes, I can just see people trembling at the sight of the deadly lie detector, how useful, I just mean if it's going to put a target on my back,

Zayne is already around the table with a bunch of papers in his hand when I come in, he tosses it on the table before sitting, he picks up a pen and continues reading through the paper. “No meeting today?” I ask as I come around the table “Something worst, paperwork” I giggle. “But Katie helps you out” “Only with pack expenses and anything Dark woods related, when it comes to anything outside the pack, I deal with it” he signs at the bottom of a few pages then slips it into an envelope, tying the red string shut, and tosses it on the table like he couldn’t bare to look at it for another moment. Zayne rolls his chair sideways and curls two fingers at me. His pose relaxed, eyes slightly hooded. Unable to resist, I cover the space between us in two steps, with a hand at my hip, he pulls me down to his lap, burying his face in my hair. “So, Nana?” I question. His face in my neck “My mother died giving birth to me, Nana raised me” he pulls back slightly, his eyes smiling “You could

*** “I better give you back or your mate will have my head” Lily had said before walking me back to the house. “No, he wouldn’t” “I already feel bad for returning you injured” I laughed “That was my fault.” “How about we do this, you tell him you tripped and fell after you left, or he might never allow you to visit me again” Another laugh, “That’s ridiculous, besides it's almost completely healed up” I wave my hand at her. We hug again before parting, her heading to the lodge to hang with the girls as Tate has patrol for a couple more hours. Zayne is waiting for me in the living room when I step in. His nose flares as he inhales in my direction. “You’re hurt” it wasn’t a question. “Just a nick, I er… it's already healing” I say instead. Zayne grasps my wrist, smoothing my hand open to see the thing gash that is already healing. “How did this happen?” I pull back my hand, holding it behind me “Doesn’t matter, you said something about food” His eyes hold mine, I think he’

The mind is a powerful tool.Now that I know of it, I don’t try to but I keep reading people, as soon as I’m around living breathing people, their emotions just swim into me, not Zayne though. I have felt him, but only a few times, and when I do, it’s a steady wave. This makes me wonder if it’s because he has a strong grip on his emotions or if he just doesn’t feel a lot.I meet up with Lily on Wednesday, having spent the entire day with Zayne in the house until he had to go for patrol so we opt for a leisure walk around the compound.“Alina?” I turn at the sound of my name.“Hi Rachel”“you haven’t been to training, Oliver says you’re fine though I was concerned,”“Thanks, Rachel, I’m just taking a few days off”“Oh, that’s nice. was just going for a run”“Want to join us?” I ask.“You don’t mind?”“Of course, not”“I was just about to tell Lily about it, we’re keeping it quiet though” “keep what quiet?” lily asksAt the same time, Rachel says “your powers emerged?”“Your ability ha

Zayne is running late so I helped myself to a large portion of soup and bread, I was starving Okay? Emma packs away the rest of the food and stores it in the fridge. We get to making some sandwiches since it’s still early, just early evening. I’ll probably get hungry again before it's time for bed. Afterward, I help Emma do the dishes and clean the kitchen, I wash and she dries putting them away in their appropriate places. The door opens and closes, low footfalls sound and, I bite my lips to hide my smile, a moment later Zayne steps into the kitchen. “Emma,” he says as a way of greeting “I know, I know,” she waves her hands in the air, “let me put this away and I’ll get out of your hair” she puts away the deadly sharp knives and dashed to the sink washing her hands then throws her shawl over her shoulders. “Well, have a good night to you. Have fun” she shoots me a wink over her shoulder before pressing a kiss to Zayne’s cheek before disappearing through the door. I smile at her a

I don’t know if it’s because I have death on my mind when I close my eyes, but for the first time, I wake up with the scent of blood in my nose, the metallic taste on my tongue. And death behind my eyes. I fly out of the bed and rush to the bathroom and retch acid runs up my throat, and nose, a shudder runs through me.“Fucking hell” I breathe, on my knees, eyes closed, I lean my head against the toilet, sucking in air through my mouth into my lungs. When the earth stops moving I open my eyes, get up, and hit flush. I stumble to the sink and run the water. Patting my damp cheeks, needing to get rid of the bile on my tongue.I suck in water, and gurgle it in my mouth before spitting it out, doing it several times until the bitter taste is gone from my tongue, then I squirt a large portion of paste and get to work on cleaning my mouth.I wash my face and pat it dry with a towel, I close my eyes and snap them back open at the sight of blood and death.“Goddess” revulsion in my belly, I r
