CALIFF “I’m grateful for your patience.” My wife just shook to hold her laugh. “You’re shitting me, Alpha. I have all the patience in the world when it comes to you.” “Come here.” I opened my arms, and she came to me willingly. “I don’t want to crash you, and you’re still recovering. You will get another fluid tonight. Do you want anything else?” “I wanna kiss you.” She smiled. “Just kiss. We’re at Zarah’s house.” “Just kiss.” I cupped her face before she could protest and kissed her like my life depended on it. I always felt at home with her. And three days felt like an eternity before I could kiss and feel my mate. Our lips moved in sync. The moment she felt my tongue at the seam of her lips, she opened them for me, granting me access. Our tongues collided, probing deeply, swirling in her mouth. I missed her taste, the sweetest I’d ever tasted. I missed feeling her skin against mine, her touch, the warmth of her embrace, the tightness and hotness inside her. And I missed h

SHADOW “Take off your necklace. Take this one.” Zarah had another necklace in her hand. “Why, what’s wrong with this?” I removed the necklace she gave me. “This necklace is linked to me.” She put it around my neck. “It will send an alert to me if you are hurt. Don’t worry, I won’t know if you and Califf get kinky.” “Jeez.” I looked at the pendant. It was almost the same as the first one she gave me. “Thanks.” “You have five minutes with the priestess. Just tell her your purpose.” “Zarah—” The portal already appeared before I could protest because I still had in mind to lay to the priestess. “See you later.” She pushed me into the portal. I ended up in Margaret’s living room. “I know why you’re here, Shadow.” Margaret, the High Priestess, welcomed me to her minibar. “I assume Alpha Califf has recovered well.” “Yes. And thank you for meeting me. I’m here because I want to find out who is doing this. Elder Aciano has been missing for two days, and his wife is worried. He was s

CALIFF My guts told me that Shadow was hiding something from me, and it was never wrong, but I was willing to wait until she was ready. Watching her freeze like that terrified me, and it wasn’t like her. She was tactical alert and could sense danger a mile away, but not today. She saw the man coming towards us, though, and she was able to warn our guys ahead of time. Something was bothering her, distracting her from focusing on the job. I wanted to ask Zarah if she noticed something different about Shadow’s behavior, but that witch would never betray Shadow. But I still tried my luck. CALIFF: Can we talk? I sent the text and slipped my phone into my pocket. We just arrived back at the compound. We came back home yesterday since I had already felt better. And I couldn’t depend my job on Duke when he had work. “Here.” Kairo handed me discreetly the folded manila envelope. “Thank you.” I slipped it into my jacket pocket. “Guys, come with me.” “I’m hungry.” Shadow grabbed the han

SHADOW “Can mercury, like STD, be passed on to someone?” “That’s a stupid question. It can’t,” my mate answered. “Your emotions are just more human than Lycan. And maybe you should finish whatever you have unfinished dirty business with your mate. It helps a lot more than you know.” That last part made my cheeks flush. “You’re not listening, Zarah. I watched the man walk toward us, and he would shoot me. He was already pulling the gun from his back, and I just stared like a scared deer caught in headlights. If it wasn’t for Califf, I could be dead now.” “You froze, Shadow. It’s normal. It happens to everyone in that situation when it brings back bad memories. There’s nothing wrong with you.” Zarah was hiding what she saw in my head and wasn’t planning on telling me. “I didn’t have a flashback. And you said it yourself that something is blocking you. And I supposed to sense dangers and hear it a mile away,” I explained, needing more of her support than telling me there was nothin

CALIFF “I’m so sorry, Claire. I wish I had good news.” “I want you to be honest with me, Alpha. Is my husband dead?” “I don’t know, Claire.” I shook my head. I didn’t know how to answer a grieving woman waiting for her mate to return to her. And she looked like she had been crying and hadn’t been sleeping well. “The PD in the city and the sheriff hadn’t found a body. So we have hopes. That’s why we’re not giving up.” She smiled sadly. “I know he’s still alive. I may not be able to reach him out through our link, but I know he’s just somewhere having a midlife crisis and will come back to me once he realizes he has someone waiting for him at home.” “I’m sure they are doing their best to find him, and we are doing the best we can.” She stood up. “I can feel him, Alpha. I know he’s still alive.” I held the woman’s hand and smiled. “Then we will hold on to that.” “Thank you.” “No, Claire. Thank you. Just stay home. When he comes back, you will be there for him.” Once she left th

SHADOW My eyebrow arched. Califf’s phone rang, and I didn’t know it was a call from Grady, who took over the pack after Keane lost his chance. Well, he deserved it. Keane was nothing but a dirtbag and took advantage of his power, killed werewolves, conquered packs, and slept with women because he was the alpha. “Alpha Grady, it’s good to hear from you. How have you been?” He put it on speaker before putting his phone on the nightstand. “I’m good. Thank you. The pack has been great. We managed to salvage what was left, and now we’re starting to get there.” I lay back in bed as I listened to their conversation. I was already dressed in my hiking gear while Califf was still in his towel. Water drops rolled down his shoulders to his bare chest. “Good to hear that. By the way, you didn’t call just to say hello. Is there anything I can help you with?” His eyes glimmered as he caught me ogling him. I let my eyes wander down his abs. Damn, those eight packs made me drool, and the deep

CALIFF “What is it?” I stopped dead in my tracks. I sensed the anxiousness coming from Shadow. “I smell blood.” We began sniffling the air. The metallic scent became more pungent. “It’s animal blood.” She was right. “Yeah.” “I’ll go check it,” Kairo volunteered himself, but Lyon stopped him. “You don’t go alone. That could be a trap. For a smart guy, sometimes, you’re an idiot.” “Okay, big guy,” Kairo said, but without flaring his nose at Lyon. “What’s the plan, Alpha?” “Lyon and Kairo, go check if it’s an animal attack or killed by some animal hunters. Tor, stay behind them. Be the lookout.” “Right, because it did not die naturally,” Shadow said. “Just look out for traps, and—” “And be vigilant. Got it.” Zack groaned, pissed off at how Kairo replied to his Luna. “Show some respect, Kairo.” Kairo slightly bowed his head at me and Shadow. “I’m sorry. I mean no disrespect, Alpha, Luna. I was just excited. That’s all.” “Are you done?” Lyon waited impatiently for him. “Righ

SHADOW “You’ve been teasing me since morning, and I’ve been having trouble controlling my unruly dick since then.” “How is it my fault?” I countered as he pressed his prominent bulge against my ass. “Get naked, Shadow.” “Nope,” I disobeyed with a pop. “Do it. You’re pissing off my wolf.” He just dropped something on the floor. When I checked it, it was his t-shirt, and the next thing to pile down was his khaki pants and socks. “What are you doing?” “What do you think I am doing? Getting naked and giving my cock the satisfaction it craves. Aren’t you wet, my Luna?” He came behind me, pulling my shirt off over my head, then unhooked my bra. “We have work to do, Califf,” I protested, but a whimper rose up my throat. “Screw it,” he murmured. “I want to fuck you right now, or I can’t work with my head full of dirty sex thoughts of what to do to you.” “Wow.” I was still not facing him, but he was already unbuttoning my pants, dragging them down with my panties. “What if I refuse?”
