LIAM I ran my eyes over her; dressed in that clingy black oversize nightshirt that slipped off one of her slender shoulders, draping over her perky round breasts, her sexy legs perfectly on display for me, making me fucking hard. Her gorgeous eyes staring at me, that slender nose and those plump pouty lips that were begging to be kissed… Fuck she was fucking beautiful. There was an innocence beyond that mischievous look of hers, one I was ready to destroy and show her exactly what she was missing out on. But I needed her to be ready for that… I walked towards her, waiting for her answer. "I'm waiting, darling." I murmured, taking hold of her chin. Her breath hitched, her lips parting slightly as she stared into my eyes. "If you want to." She said softly. I smirked. "Is that a yes?" I pushed seductively. "Yes." She poked her eyes out at me and I tugged her into my arms. "Good." I murmured. Leaning down I

ZACK I glared at her. Goddess! She was so damn stubborn. That got her to shut up. She blinked at me as if I had just spoken a foreign language. ‘Taylor’s sister-in-law? She’s like thirty-three…’ She looked confused. Don’t I know it? I was just a few months younger than Raven, I knew she was doing the math. ‘But… She’s been mated for like twelve years…’ She replied, I could hear the realisation settle into her voice. Guilt flitted through me as she turned her blazing eyes on me. ‘Look I'm not proud of it, but it happened just before I found out he was my mate. I was eighteen and an older woman hitting on you… It wasn’t that hard to fall for it. It was just sex.’ I sighed in frustration. ‘So just… stay out of it.’ ‘No… I don’t get it. She cheated on her mate? Goddess! Her mate is such a good person too… Channing has always been so nice, he was injured…’ Although Kiara was able to save his life, there wasn’t much s

RAVEN I felt awful. Zack had told me what had happened and I felt like shit, I didn’t mean to make matters worse, but I had. I padded up the stairs in wolf form before entering the bathroom and grabbing a towel. Reaching beneath the cabinet, I slid my bedroom key out and trudged down the hall to my bedroom. Unlocking the door, I entered feeling exhausted, however, I had asked Robyn for help tonight and I needed to go visit her too. I quickly told Zack that Taylor was ok, he seemed relieved and thanked me. I hoped they managed to sort this problem out. I groaned, getting dressed quickly in underwear, sweatpants and a ribbed vest top. I grabbed the book, shoved it into the bag and headed to Robyn’s room. I knocked on her door, hearing music from inside the room despite the soundproof walls, you could still faintly make out the sounds. She opened it pretty quick, dressed in yoga pants and a crop top. She really was gorgeous. I couldn’t really bla

RAVEN I had just entered Taylor’s bedroom, the creams and browns of the décor and walls made the room look warm and welcoming. I saw him laying on his bed staring at the ceiling. "Hey. We missed you at training." I said softly, walking over to his bed. He sat up slowly and I hugged him tightly. "I'm not feeling up to training." He muttered, laying down again and grabbing a square cushion, hugging it to his chest as he sighed deeply. "I know, but you can’t stay cooped up." I said, stroking his hand. Our eyes met, and the pain in his tugged at my heart. "I'm sorry." I whispered. He gave me a pointed look. "Really Raven, you need to stop with the self-blaming. I'm glad I know what a… jerk Zack’s been. As for Anna, I don’t know what the hell to do." He groaned in frustration. So that was his dilemma, but right now I didn’t trust myself to give him any advice. "I don’t even know what to do with my lif

RAVEN "Liam." I choked out as his hand became tighter. "A-Alpha!" Ben stuttered, clearly not expecting the change in Liam. Liam’s eyes snapped towards him, his Alpha command surging forth. With just one look, the man lowered his head, moving away. My eyes widened… That… Liam didn’t even say anything… "Liam!" I said, my nails digging into his hands as I tried to get him to let go of me. "Liam, please let go." My heart thundered as Liam threw me aside roughly, I hit the bars on the opposite side, groaning as pain jarred through me before I fell to the ground, just about breaking my fall. The burn of the silver searing my bare back made me pull away from them. "A-Alpha…" "No one can protect you, not even her." Liam hissed as Dad spluttered, backing away from the bars. ‘Run!’ I told Ben, praying he didn’t have the keys just in case Liam tried to get them. He moved towards me, but I shook my head. ‘I…
