Amber's POVI looked around me in confusion at the room that I was held captive in. I didn’t understand why I was here again. Chained to the same space in a stark room with only the bed for furniture…hadn’t I already escaped this months ago and found myself mated to Alpha Ryan?The men were just as relentless as I remembered, tormenting me verbally through the doorway before growing bolder and entering the room itself to threaten me with violence and other things that made my skin crawl.I fought them off as best as I could as my stepmother laughed in the background, but there was a distinct difference this time around.Every time the vile guards came close to me or even seemed as though they were about to overwhelm me, a large wolf appeared that almost filled the room and he snapped them up in his jaws as easily as if he were at an all day buffet.Suddenly, I felt as though I were being sucked backwards into the bed and I screamed as I was engulfed in darkness.My eyes flashed open a

Unknown PoVBy the time Alpha Luke returned home, his anger had reached boiling point. None of his workers had dared to engage him in conversation as he left, his menacing aura threatening a grisly end to anyone who crossed his path.He stormed through the entrance to the pack house, shoving the pathetic omega’s who weren’t quick enough to move out of his way violently, snarling and snapping at their cries as they fell.He was furious that members of his own pack were silently rebelling against him and if he wasn’t careful, he would lose the leadership through a mutiny from his own wolves.He made his way straight up to the master bedroom, and stormed across to the small bar that he kept in the corner of his room, grabbing a heavy crystal glass and pouring himself a large shot, before gulping it down in one mouthful.He slammed the glass on the counter and glowered ahead of him as his mind swam with possibilities for revenge.He had finished the bottle by the time he had come up with

My heart raced as I sat astride him, terrified of being discovered by the members of our pack.Catching people fucking in public was nothing new to us shifters, but I had always thought that if it ever happened to me, I would have been mortified. How was I supposed to face people the next day if they’ve seen me in the throes of passion with my mate?Ryans head was burrowed into the crook of my neck, nipping at the skin and licking over the areas that he had been pulling at with his teeth. The sparks that rippled through me pulled at my core and as I moaned gently under his touch, he pressed his hardness against me, sending jolts of pleasure through my body.“Do you like that?” He murmured against my skin as his lips trailed up and over my jawline and he grabbed the back of my neck pulling me into a savage kiss that screamed of his desire to devour me and possess me in every way he could imagine.I moaned against his lips, my mouth opening and allowing his tongue access whilst his free

Lily's PoVTom and I parted ways at the entrance and as he made his way up the stairs towards where her brother would be training, I turned left towards the kitchens, hoping to catch up with some of the girls that I used to get on well with.I hadn’t gone too far down the corridor when three figures turned the corner in front of me and stopped dead in their tracks as soon as they saw me.My heart sank as their incredulous gasps turned into sneers and they stalked towards me like predators hunting their first kill of the day.“Well well well, look what we have here.” Ella, the tall, blonde, bane of my existence sneered as her little gaggle of sycophants sniggered behind her, “I’m surprised you would even crawl back here given your sudden rise in status.”I clenched my fists at my side as I faced her defiantly and forced down the pit of terror that was building in my chest from the years of bullying that I had suffered at their hands.“Can we not do this today, please? Don’t you have an

Ryan's POVAs soon as the last of the Alpha’s and their men arrived at the packhouse, I briefed the late arrivals and we began to finalize the preparations to move out. They were allowed one night of good sleep to recoup their energies from a long journey here but at first light, we set out.Even I had to admit our convoy of vehicles looked impressive as they rolled across the countryside to where the Alpha King of Gaia was surely headed and an uneasy silence had settled over us as we drew nearer to our destination.Fighting was never fun, but defending our land was necessary.Finally, we reached our destination, a little unassuming coastal town out in the middle of nowhere with barely any fortifications or defenses. I could see instantly why they had chosen to attack here as there would be so little resistance if we hadn’t been notified of their intentions.I had to hand it to them, our intelligence network was second to none when it came to operating behind enemy lines and as soon a
