(Angelique)

The door opens without a knock, and I know before I turn around that something's different tonight.

He's been cold for days.

Controlled.

Touching me like it's a favor he's choosing not to do.

Not tonight.

Tonight he crosses the room like he's come to collect a debt.

"Take it off," he says. "All of it."

I've learned what happens when I'm slow.

I shed my clothes in a hurry.

He watches every piece hit the floor, and there's nothing lazy in his eyes now.

They move over me like he's deci

  • Alpha's Obsession With His Pet   Chapter 55 – Not Enough Yet

    (Maliyah)Victor Beck is sweating through his shirt in my sitting room, and it isn't the tea."He asked the doctor to walk him through it," he says. "Twice. What the heart does. What it should've done. Rasmussen held the line, but-""But what?""Rene kept looking at me while he answered. Not at the doctor. At me."I set my cup down.This is the trouble with using men like Victor.A hammer shouldn’t fret about the nail."You had a cardiac episode brought on by strain," I say."The strain of watching your son shame two packs by keeping his dead mate in his bed. Every wolf in that house believes it because every wolf in that house would find it reasonable. All you have to do is keep being an old man with a weak heart.""I’m not weak and my son isn't a fool, Maliyah.""No. He's a man with a fool's problem, which is worse, because he brought them on himself and he should know better."I refill his cup, and he watches my hands like they might do something else."Stop volunteering details. S

  • Alpha's Obsession With His Pet   Chapter 54 – Too Careful

    (Angelique)"Drink up bug. You know the rules."Zack makes a face, but tips the last of the juice down his throat with exaggerated cared.Bored with the routine the way only a four-year-old can be bored with the thing keeping him alive."Smelling game first. Then breakfast with the giant. Then can I go find Cole?"Goddess.He won’t keep away from Rene, and he’s made Rene’s Beta his best friend."The giant is very busy planning his mating ceremony, you shouldn’t bother him today. Why do you want Cole?""He said he'd show me the trucks."Wonderful.I can't even object because Cole's one of the only people in this house I'd trust to stand between Zack and danger."After breakfast. If Cole says it's still okay. And what do we say if anyone asks about the smelling game?""It's our secret game."He says it sing-song, worn smooth from repeating."Because packs like winning and we don't tell other teams our tricks.""Good boy."He's gone before the words are fully out of my mouth, thundering

    (Rene)Cole's been talking for ten minutes and I couldn't repeat one word of it."Alpha.""Border rotation. I heard you.""That was three items ago."I look up from the reports I haven't read.He's standing on the other side of my desk with the patient expression he saves for the days I'm being a problem."Say the rest again."He doesn't.He just studies me, and I let him, because snapping at him would confirm whatever he's already concluded."Late night," he says finally. Not a question."Careful.""Wasn't going anywhere with it."He sets the last report on the stack."Your father’s asking to see you. Maliyah's asked twice about the decorations for the hall when Brynn is crowned, and she wants input in the menu for the feast after. And the kitchen wants to know if the boy eats fish.""Why would I know what the boy eats?""You had breakfast with him twice this week."I did.The kid just shows up and looks at me like I’m his hero and refuses to be insulted by the number of times I’ve t

  • Alpha's Obsession With His Pet   Chapter 52 – Full Capacity

    (Angelique)He doesn't ease into it.One thrust and he's fully seated inside me, and the stretch of him knocks the air clean out of my lungs, more sensation than pain, though there's some of that too.I’ve been empty for five years and it’s been weeks of him stopping before this exact second, every single time.He isn't stopping tonight.Finally.My wolf purrs, rising up from wherever she goes when she’s not arguing with me.Our mate.The words shake me to my core.What happens when he takes it all the way?The first time, when we were seventeen, the bond snapped into place, will this make it harder for him to reject me?If he sends me away Zack will be safe.The thought of never seeing him again is agony. But our son will live without this sword hanging over his head every day.It’s for the best if he banishes me.My thoughts scatter when he starts to move his hips. Pleasure eroding my ability to reason."Look at me," he says, voice wrecked in a way I've never heard out of him."Eyes

  • Alpha's Obsession With His Pet   Chapter 51 – Two Weeks

    (Rene)Cole doesn’t ask who her is when I snarl, “Fetch her,” in passing.Mount your mate. Don't be a fool about the rest.The wolf’s been saying some version of that since I walked out of my father's study.Over and over, until it stopped sounding like advice and started sounding like an order I'd already decided to obey.She's in my doorway in under two minutes, like some animal part of her felt this coming before Cole even knocked on her door.The bond does that to her. I've quit pretending it doesn't do the same to me."Alpha.""Shut the door."She does, and stands where she always stands when I summon her here, hands loose at her sides, chin up, waiting to find out how harsh I’m going to be tonight."Two weeks before I crown Brynn as my Luna," I tell her."I heard. Maliyah made sure the whole house knows, and then Brynn came to tell me herself."I almost think I detect a note of bitterness in her voice.She has no right to it, but I feel the same way.“Then you also know what hap

    (Rene)My father's sitting up in bed looking irritatingly well for a man who supposedly nearly died a few hours ago."Stress," the doctor said. "His heart's strong. Older wolves get like this under pressure."I don't buy it.I haven't bought it since I walked in and found him drinking tea instead of dying, but I don't have the energy tonight to work out which lie I'm looking at."You scared the house," I tell him."Good. Maybe it'll remind everyone I'm still alive and still owed some respect in it."That's as much of his sulking as I can handle.I leave him to his tea and go looking for the rest of the trap, because I already know there's more of it waiting.I find it in the study.Maliyah's chosen my father's chair to sit in, which tells me everything about how this conversation is going to go before she opens her mouth."Sit," she says."I prefer to stand. Last I checked this was still my house.""Suit yourself then."She folds her hands."Your father gave us all quite a fright toni

    (Angelique) Five years ago, I ran away from my mate.I was pregnant, terrified, and convinced leaving was the only way to protect my child.Now I'm twenty-six years old, living in a rundown trailer in a human town that doesn't know werewolves exist. I work double shifts at a diner, hide my scent w

    (Angelique)I'm half into my clothes before Cole finishes the sentence.Shirt inside out. I don't fix it."How long?""Minutes."He’s avoiding looking at me.Guilt or fear of what Rene’s reaction would be. It doesn’t matter."He was right on my heels. I turned for one second."Rene's already off th

    (Angelique)The bell over the door is still swinging when my knees give out.I catch the edge of the booth before I hit the floor.There's broken glass and debris everywhere.The pitcher, two plates, the tray. Damaged stock comes out of my wages. That's the thought my brain hands me.Not he's here.
