Chapter: Chapter 7DAISYThis wasn’t happening.It couldn’t be.Was I going to die? Probably-Strong hands clamped down my shoulders, shaking me violently. “Daisy!” Willow's voice drew me back into my living room. “We need to move.”I opened my mouth to say something but my voice was lost. It wasn’t until I looked down at my hands that I realized they were trembling. But before I got a chance to react, another set of shots rang outside. They were sharper, often accompanied with a grunt and the sound of bodies hitting the ground.Willow visibly relaxed, but his eyes were still sharp.The onslaught lasted barely five minutes and then… silence. My own heartbeat rang in my ears, my haggard breath filling the oppressive silence. Then Willow shifted beside me.“It’s over.” He said lowly, straightening.He held out his hand for me, waiting like I didn’t just have my front door shut at by gunned men. When he realized I wasn’t going to move any moment soon, he crouched down and scooped me off the ground.“What

Chapter: Chapter 6CALEBMy impatience was starting to wear dangerously thin.Hunter wasn’t supposed to be here. Neither was Willow. But Hunter had a talent for appearing at my doorstep half-dead, and Willow had a talent for following chaos wherever it led.Usually, I could tolerate both.Tonight, I couldn’t.I had less than twenty-four hours before everything moved into place.I’d planned it the minute I found out who Daisy Drewmoore was. The heiress to the Drewmoore incorporated. One of the biggest names in the west. At first it started as curiosity.This fragile girl that showed up on my doorstep after three years of quiet. Holding a damn cupcake and a smile that could render you blind. Of course I would be curious as to how one gets to live without a care in the world.So I decided to do a little… digging. And once I started, it didn’t take long to uncover the rot beneath the surface.Her father owed the Serpent Gang millions.That changed everything.I’d spent years trying to get close to the Serp

Chapter: Chapter 5DAISYLaughter spilled from me before I could stop it. The sound echoing through my living room. I sat adjacent to Willow, watching as he owned the whole house with his humor.At least that was one thing common between them.Their ability to fill a place with presence alone.It was probably the alcohol buzzing in the my veins but he looked… less murdery when he was here, in my house, laughing at my lame jokes and staring at me like that. My pulse skipped a bit.My gaze flicking from his dark eyes to his lips.What the hell are you doing?I cleared my throat, tearing my gaze away and sitting straighter. Stick to the script, Daisy.He didn’t notice the shift. If he did, he didn’t make it known. I ignored it, turning fully to face him so we were opposite each other.“So,” I started lightly. “Where’s your accent?”His gaze sharpened. So did his posture.“Gone with the years I’ve lived in the United States,” he said slowly.I nodded. “So you’re… not from here.”Willow’s eyes narrowed on m

Chapter: Chapter 4DAISYThey were insane.Every single one of them.A cage fighter?A cage fighter???I scoffed, my pace faltering as my head snapped to the door. Caleb had told me to stay put until he got back. Another damned command. Irritation rolled off my skin in waves. He was obviously hiding something, and I wasn’t waiting around to get butchered by a family of psychopaths.I gnawed on my bottom lip, hesitating.I had to get out of here first.My feet carried me to the door, pressing my ear against it. Voices. Muffled. Good. They sounded far enough.I sucked in a breath, twisting the handle of the door slowly. The quiet creak bounced off the wall as I pushed it open and stepped into the hallway.I scanned both sides. Empty. Quiet. Too quiet. Like the scene before a man with a chainsaw appears out of nowhere and guts you into pieces. A shiver ran down my spine as I chose a path. Left.My pulse was hammering against my ears because of the silence. I couldn’t hear any voices again. Just silence.F

Chapter: Chapter 3WillowI held my breath, afraid that she would wake up.Two months, three days, and-My gaze flicked to my watch, its silenced edges now rusted by time and demons I’d rather keep buried.-fourteen minutes.That’s how long I’d watched from a distance, swearing to Caleb I would stay away from her orbit. A smile tugged at my lips, even as my lungs burned, begging for air. The big man up there must really love me despite my shortcomings.Daisy Drewmoore fell right into my lap. Technically, barged into my brother’s house but no one’s counting technicalities. What mattered was her.She looked so… peaceful. A hundred times more beautiful up close. I knew I shouldn’t be here. Caleb will flip out if he found me here. But like every single thing I get obsessed with… I couldn’t help myself.My fingers stretched before I could think about it, brushing off a stray strand. She ruffled in the sheets, I froze. Then slowly, her lashes fluttered open.Shit.I yanked my hand back, shooting up the be

Chapter: Chapter 2I could hear my own heartbeat, hammering beneath my skin as I waited.Nothing.I pressed the doorbell again, harder this time, holding it down a second longer than necessary. Then waited… still, I was met with the rhythmic chirping of bugs. “Seriously?” I muttered under my breath.I wasn't going to just give up.I punched the doorbell. Again and again and again until-The door swung open so fast, I jerked back.Caleb stood, covering the entire doorframe, his lips curled up in that same scowl that always succeeded in making my skin boil. My fingers tightened around my arm as I tilted my chin upward. “What else in my building did you tamper with?”His brows drew together slightly. If he kept this up, he'd end up with wrinkles by the time he was forty.“What?” He asked slowly.I scoffed, then shoved my hand into my pocket, my jacket slipping off my shoulder.His gaze flickered, then darkened, but just as quickly as it came, it disappeared. I shoved the thought aside.“My phone?” I

Chapter: Chapter 50ASH“The spell is complete.”That was all the witch said before dragging her body back to the chair woven with vines. She picked up a cloth calmly wiping off the blood and saliva.Kade frowned.Annalise was perplexed. What I felt didn’t have a name. Conflict maybe?“Well,” the witch pressed with irritation. “Shift.”Kade only hesitated for half a second, wondering what the hell just happened before ultimately deciding it was none of his business.He rolled his shoulders, then slowly, the sound of bones snapping filled the air. Relief flodded in as his skin began breaking into fur and finally, his wolf stood tall and proud… and snarling at the witch.I guess his wolf still held a grudge.Kade managed to hold him back from tearing her head off. “And the information?” I asked. She sighed exhausted, massaging her head. “You can kill then by ripping their heart out or burning them alive. There are a couple of conduits that can point you towards one. The twin stones are one of them. Alon

Chapter: Chapter 49ASHThe journey served as a countdown.To whether or not we survived this whole ordeal. Kade hadn’t spoken much since we left meadow grove. Not when we stopped over the pickup spots for the herbs Annalise needed. Not when we camped in the woods.He stayed silent. Like he had taken a vow of silence, refusing to eat or drink anything. It was starting to get to me.“I wonder how you intend on facing the witch when you look like you’re about to roll over and die.”Kade barely spared me a glance, hauling the body of the hybrid over the wall of trees that seperated the woods from the enchanted forest before climbing over it. The air grew thicker, the surroundings darker, like they were warning us to stay out. “I’ll eat when I get my life back.” He mumbled low, taking the lead.Annalise glanced at me with a knowing look. She waited until he was out of earshot before whispering. “He’s spiraling.”My jaw ticked. “I know.”“Will he be a problem?”I paused. “I hope not.”“I can hear you guys.”

Chapter: Chapter 48ASH“I don’t know what you’re talking about.” I said tightly, hating how aware my body felt.Annalise only smiled, almost like she had expected that answer.I shuffled on my feet, gaze flicking away from her. Normally she would poke until I spilled whatever was on my mind, her silence only made my unease grow. A wolf staggered toward us, brushing past me with the faint smell of alcohol before disappearing into Tenski’s shed.Drunkness and despair. Safe to say this place hadn’t changed in the last decade. But the thought was swallowed up by the silence. It was becoming unbearable.“Say what’s on your mind.” I gritted.Her lip tipped up. “And why would you think I have something to say?”I forced a breath through my nose. “Because you’re not saying anything.”Her brows furrowed in amusement. “Maybe I don’t have anything to say.”“I know that look.”“What look?”“The one that says you’re itching to ask who she is.”I froze. Her smile grew wider.Great.“So there is someone?”I hated whe

Chapter: Chapter 47IRISRunning through the woods helped. Not by a lot. But enough to ease that weight that pressed against my chest, making it impossible to breathe.Something was wrong.I could feel it. And yet, Ryker was convinced it was all in my head. I let my eyes flutter shut, feeling the night breeze on my skin. A shiver rolled through me as I sank into the grass. I inhaled deeply, relishing that scent. Pine. Wet soil. Clean air. A shuffle made my eyes snap open. I held my breath, waiting and sure enough, it came again, from my right, behind the bushes of wild flowers.My eyes narrowed, senses sharpening as I stood slowly. The shuffling stopped suddenly, my pulse froze. Then something lunged at me, black, fast. “Ahhhh!!!!” I screamed, shielding my face from the attack.I expected blood. Pain. But all I got was a light prickle on my arms. I peeled my eyes open slowly. Then froze, tilting my head to the side.A black cat perched on a tree stump, staring down at me like I was an inconvenience.

Chapter: Chapter 46IRISThe Blossom Spring festival was two days away.And no sign of Ash or Kade.I was starting to get worried.Kade was very particular about this festival. Every year, without fail, he honored his parents beneath the blossom trees. It was the one day he allowed himself to grieve openly.He never missed it.Never.The pack members shared my unease, whispering different theories. I turned to face Timothy who was stacking the baskets I needed for the floral arrangement. “Where is he?”He didn’t look up. “I don’t know Iris, I’m just following orders. “His hands paused. “Like the foot soldier that I am.”Guilt flickered in my chest.He was still mad at me for the hierarchy stunt I pulled weeks ago. I wasn’t about to apologize for telling the truth. But I was going to try and get answers.I pushed off the wall, walking toward the door.“Where are you going now?” Timothy asked, irritation coating his voice.“To find out why they’re still not back.” I answered without looking back or waitin

Annalise finally caught up, wheezing like she had just lifted a mountain.“You’re getting old, Scat.” I said under my breath, trying to push that feeling away.But she caught it.I hated that.“What’s going on in that head of yours?”My jaw ticked. “What happened to minding our business?”Her gaze flicked around us. “She’s definitely taking her precious time to get here. Might as well unburden yourself. Just like before.”The thought that had flooded my mind ever since I laid eyes on her. The unsure but fiery look in her eyes. The way she pushed through even when surrounded by people that saw her as an outcast. I knew something was wrong. I just didn’t know what and if I was being honest? I didn’t want to find out.I let out a sharp breath. “I just can’t wait to be done with this mess.”Her lips twitched. “Whatever it is, I’m sure you’ll get through it. You

Your dad is mine
His fingers slid into my hair, tugging just enough to tilt my head back and expose my throat to him.
“We shouldn’t be doing this, Mr. Turner,” I breathed, my voice breaking on a gasp as he found a sensitive spot just beneath my ear and sucked lightly.
His growl was low and primal, vibrating through my skin as he pressed his body against mine. I felt every hard line of him, his heat bleeding through my clothes.
“Why not?” he murmured, his voice rough with restrained need.
I swallowed hard. “You’re… you’re my ex-fiancé’s father.”
He paused. For a moment, everything stilled… his breath against my throat, the air between us, even the rain outside seemed to hesitate. Then he lifted his head, and our eyes locked. His were a stormy blue, intense and unwavering.
“No one has to know, Catherine,” he said quietly, his voice was like a dark promise wrapped in silk. Then he leaned in with his lips brushing the shell of my ear. “I can be your dirty secret.”
A shiver ripped down my spine. His words settled deep in my gut, awakening something dangerous.
I bit my lip. Every cell in my body screamed for me to walk away but I didn’t.
Instead, I gripped the front of his shirt, pulled him down, and kissed him hard. Desperately. He rumbled low in his chest, kissing me back with equal hunger, his hands roaming my body like he already knew every curve.
When he finally broke the kiss, I was breathless. Then he dropped to his knees between my legs, with his eyes darker now.
“I’m going to show you the world,” he said. “If you’d let me.”

Chapter: CHAPTER 116CATHERINE Silence.Absolute silence.That was the first thing I noticed. No voice constantly screaming at me that I was going to lose everything, no weight crushing my chest. Just… silence.I reveled in it.But it didn’t last, like every other thing in my life. It broke down steadily, falling apart like sand in water. And then his voice broke through.“Catherine!”On edge, concern. Rage. Something else. Ronald.“Catherine, can you hear me?”Too loud.Another set of voices. Male. Marcus.“She’s still breathing. Let’s get out of here. Now.”I tried to force my eyes open but they refused to cooperate. The scent of gunpowder still hung low in the stale air, reminding me of what I had just done.That’s right.I killed him.

Marcus’s rough growl cut through the tension as he stepped in front of me, his entire frame covering my line of sight, ready to strike.Still, Adrian’s voice filtered through. “There’s no need for violence.” His voice sounded too amused. It made my skin crawl.Then my breath caught as a realization set in.I stepped out from Marcus’s frame. “Where is he?”Adrian’s eyes gleamed. “Safe,” he simply said. “For now. It all depends on you if you and your little friends walk out of here intact or in a body bag.”A shiver ran through my spine, my sweaty palms curled into a fist, fingers digging into them.“What do you want? You’ve been terrorizing me and everyone I love for god knows how long,” my throat tightened. “Why?”His brows furrowed slightly. “The weather today is terrible.”I frowned.“Let’s talk inside.” He said, gesturing to the door. “Yo

Doesn’t mean they’re the ones occupying it.” His gaze moved past me. “Doesn’t also mean some of them are willing to find out.”My gaze flicked back. A few of the men were staring right at us.

Either way, my lungs stopped working, my ears rang, drowning out everything.A muffled sound echoed from above me.My head felt heavy, but I looked up anyway. His lips were moving, talking? No. His brows were knotted, his eyes wide , fear seeping out. The veins in his neck were bulging. Shouting.My gaze flickered to the ground. I was closer to it than it should have been. When did my knees give out?My grandmother’s words refused to stop replaying in my head.Your father isn’t dead.The cold that settled in my bones wasn’t from the harsh crashing of waves or the fact that we were close to the sea. It was from the realization that the worst of them all was still here… lurking in the shadows.A hand clamped down hard on my shoulder.I turned to meet Marcus’s wild eyes dragging over me like he was searching for injuries.

He had every right to.I swallowed heavily, taking a step forward.His gaze faltered, just for half a second before hardening.“Why are you here, Cath?” He said evenly, even as his fingers dug into his arms.“I’m sorry,” I whispered, my voice muffled by the steady sound of waves crashing into each other. Cold seeped into my bones but the weight in my chest thawed it out. The docks were practically empty, save for the security guard staring us down from the end of the boat. I pretended not to notice.His scoff was lost in the wind as he tilted his head heavenward. “I’ve got crates to offload, Cath.”“Marcus-“He snapped his head back to me, eyes narrowing. “No. You don’t get to run into a fucking death trap even when I begged you not to and now whe

Frankie had been halfway across the country, setting off his own plans against the threat we both faced.Now he was here. Bruised and barely conscious. His once pristine suit was jagged, soaked in crimson, his silver rings stained with blood. The sight of him reduced to something so fragile felt… wrong. Frankie was always untouchable. Until now.“Frankie?” Mason breathed.
