TristanRoaming the woods wasn't my thing, to begin with; I preferred the indoor life, labs, and screws, mixing and jotting down with oil stains on my hands. Or maybe in my wing, with a bottle of liquor in hand.I tried to quit the bottle several times, but it never really worked out. There was always something to use it for.I breathed in the scent of Pearl pack. Once my mother's domain, before she passed on through circumstances that stacked in my head, replaying over and over again, though the two packs were joined together in marriage, Mother had made it mandatory for the pack to be given to me. Not Alpha Talon. My father.It was the most beautiful of the three packs; it's tropical, not moving an inch as the only infrastructure was the pack house.Overhead, the full moon glared bright. The tiredness from my shift that happened the night before had me craving sleep, so it seemed I wouldn't need help from liquor to sleep tonight. All I needed was the crash.Which I was about to do w
TRISTAN"IT CAN'T BE!" Atlas yelled again, the situation completely dawning on him; he pulled his hair back, pacing as if possessed.Sobs came from Iris on the ground, her shoulders shaking, her sight covered with tears, staring at space."There has to be a lie somewhere, Tristan," He whispered, expecting me to say something, but when I didn't, he lounged towards her, grabbing her by the shoulders and shaking her like a rag doll. "What did you do?! Spit it out?""Atlas, stop!""Stay out of this, Tristan""You're hurting her for no reason. She doesn't control this kind of thing."His fingers sank into her arm, and she cried out. I groaned, holding my arm as the pain swept through me; I looked up, seeing Atlas winced. We both had felt her pain. But still, Atlas didn't let go of her until I pushed him off her and caught her before she fell back to the ground."You're just hurting us all, can't you see?!" I wrapped his shirt around her weary body; the only sound coming from her now was her
IrisEverything changed. And so natural was it that I could see a wrecking ball swing through, shattering it to bits like a glass window. My eyes blurred as tears filled them again. My scent filled the room, ever so strong.I should be happy I got blessed with a mate. Oh, pardon me, two mates. This was a cause for celebration if your mates didn't own your hatred.I have a wolf! I wasn't wolfless. A beautiful, magical wolf that shone under the moon and glimmered in its lights but also had the most terrible attitude you'd ever find. Her name was Caci."You've got three dicks waiting for you, at least," she jabbed.I sucked in my breath, annoyed by her words, which touched a soft spot: "This would be the last time I'll tell you to shut up."She shrugged, staying out of my head for the meantime. I knew she would be back, and it was annoying as hell, intruding on my thoughts when all I wanted was a little quiet time to pull myself together.Everything seemed upside down now. Alpha Tristan h
Just to be clear, this is a dark romance book and there will be a lot of triggers. I know I left warnings at the blurb but I've seen scenarios with other authors where their books were down graded because it had trigger scenes even though there were actual warnings in the book.There's a reason it's called DARK ROMANCE. and a Mafia book can't do without it. at least mine.like the next chapter. Trigger warnings in the next chapter. I advice not to read if you are sensitive to avoid negative feedbacks.I assure you, this scenes are needed for the plot progression.Happy reading.
You know that moment when you realize that the names everyone called you weren't just an accusation but were true? That moment hit differently. Feel guilt and confusion tugging at your fear, especially when an Alpha wasn't so lenient.There was silence in the kitchen except for the occasional clink from Zelda picking up debris from the floor."There are millions of lies in the world, and you choose that one." Alpha Atlas snarled at me, tugging at my arm again.I winced. "I swear I saw it. I saw Akasha bathing in the silver mystic, and the pool was...." My voice trailed as it displayed in my head, "Bloody."He yanked me close, looking at my forehead, and threatened, "One more word, Iris.""Stop getting angry and just listen to me!""Once more, your Alpha orders you to shut the fuck up.""If you are Alpha, doesn't that make me Luna?" Fear mixed with anger felt different and pushed you beyond your limits, so you overlooked inevitable repercussions. "So I implore you to listen to me!"With
Tristan"He said he won't be back to the packhouse till tomorrow," Orion disclosed, standing by the door of my workspace, watching me unscrew nuts from the engine to replace the valve.I cleaned my hands on my oil-stained work shirt and wiped the sweat off my brows, turning to give Aidan's Beta my audience. He looked disgusted as he glared around the room, which was filled with spare parts and stank of machine oil. A big engine stood in the middle. The devil refused to come apart."Is there a reason?" I raised a brow.He cleared his throat, standing erect, and said, "There's news that his side of Blood canine is being ambushed."My second brow went up. "And he's there all alone?" Something told me he wasn't accounting for everything, which wasn't something to worry about."He says he can handle it; this is all I am allowed to say."And that was all I would get from him no matter how hard I pushed, which I wouldn't do anyway.I dismissed him with a wave, and he left silently, just as he
I coughed out, turning to my side to spit out blood, yet waiting for the metal to pierce through my midsection, for Atlas' eyes were empty of life—the yearning to shed blood bubbling at his tips."So stupid," I coughed again, immediately hearing him roar, bringing the blade down, when a body jumped on him, sending him sprawling on the ground, the dust in his hair."Sorry, Alpha Atlas, but I can't let you do it." Orion's voice was heard above, forcing me to have a double take on what was happening.Did Orion just save my ass from being stabbed by my brother? And what strength did he have to push Atlas? Atlas?His palms reached out to me, and I grabbed them, holding onto him with every fiber of my being while wincing.Standing up, I put my palm over my stomach and limped toward Orion. Looking at Orion, who had a careful watch on Atlas, who was slowly standing up from the ground but didn't look so furious anymore."Thank you." I nodded at him, regretting every wrong thought I ever held ag
I stared at him, my eyes wide open, knowing I was in another round of trouble and there was nothing I could do about it. Bad news sure does fly around; if not, Alpha Atlas hadn't even been in the pack for more than 15 minutes, but there he was, a cranky smile on his face, promising punishment I wasn't prepared to take.He walked over to me and picked me up like paper, taking me quietly out of the room with Alpha Tristan watching. His gray eyes followed our every move until Alpha Aidan finally left the room, closing the door behind us."Do you have anything to tell?" Aidan asked me, looking forward; I stared at his chin, shaking my head quietly.I was done with talking sharp. I couldn't take on these men, no matter my training. Especially Atlas. To protect my wolf and me, I was going to do as they said. They won.He took me into his fully illuminated room, and it hurt my eyes terribly after being in Alpha Tristan's dark room for almost one full day.He dropped me on the bed and looked d
