LOGINKorrin My steps are slow when I approach my home. I don’t want to bring Sienna to my people too fast since they are not to be trusted. The old men are already in beast form, purring loudly at the sight of her. I know what it means. They have seen my combed mane and already know my mate is a groomer. The old bastard, Drokk, is the worst of them. He is already lying on his side in the clearing with his belly exposed, like he has been waiting all day for someone to notice him. His mane is patchy, his antlers are cracked, and his tail is thumping against the dirt with such pathetic enthusiasm that I want to bite it off. Behind him, three more elders have materialized out of the blue foliage. Taz, who lost an eye to a griffin three decades ago and never lets anyone forget it. Merr, who chews on bark like it’s a pipe. And old Lok, who is so ancient his fur has gone white, and who has zero shame about rolling onto his back the second he sees a newcomer. They are all staring at Sienna. I
KorrinI have won at life. How do I know this? Because no other Zareth hunter has a mate like mine.Sienna?Her stamina is impeccable. This perfect, beautiful mate has been scratching my belly for a very long time, and taking care of your mate like this? It is highly valued among Zareth. Our women usually also want the massage treatment and don’t offer to give it back lightly. This little werewolf, however, seems to have endless energy.I never want her to stop.My stomach is exposed, completely vulnerable, and she doesn’t even know what a gift she is giving me. Among the Khor-Azan, belly scratches are sacred. Elders write treaties on the value of a good scratch. Warriors come home from hunts and kneel before their mates just to beg for five minutes of this.And here she is, doing it without being ordered, with a scowl on her face like she is being put out.It’s the most beautiful thing I’ve ever seen.“Korrin, are you even listening to me?” Sienna says, her voice coming from somewher
Sienna The creature in front of us looks like a spider bred with the ugliest monkey in existence. It has the body of a spider, but with a baboon’s red butt and the face of a monkey with glowing eyes and teeth on display. When it screeches, it is actually painful to the point that I take a step back. “Big monster,” Korrin says and pulls his tail out of my hands. When I squint at him, he is looking down at me. “Now that we are back in my world, I can transform. Do not be afraid.” He doesn’t even give me a chance to ask what he means. His blue body morphs and glows until he gets bigger and bigger, taking the shape of something that I’ve never seen before. Shit. Could it be that his magic is stronger in this world? That would make sense. I just… I just didn’t know my mate could turn into a beast like me. I’m fascinated, but also in pure shock because Korrin has turned into something I’ve never seen before. His blue skin remains, and his black hair has turned into a mane, but he is some
SiennaThe pack is dead silent.No one moves. Not the wolves, not even Astrid. She is standing there with wild eyes and horror. Valid response. I don’t know how to act either. The only sound in the world is the steady drizzle of blood, dripping from Felix’s mouth into the pine needles.“Done. Here is your Alpha. Dead.” Korrin says and straightens. He is gripping the body by the scruff, and turns to face the rest of the pack.I was not ready for this image.My mate looks every inch the monster the stories about zareth warned us about. He is bigger than any two men put together, muscles coiled under ripped-up bedsheet, sweat slick across his skin. Had he not been mine, I would be screaming righ now. But he is, so I don’t say a word, just freeze once he turns to face me.“You and I are still leaving this place.”…wait, what? Hold on!Korrin moves so fast I miss the moment he drops Felix’s corpse. Then he is in front of me, picking me up with terrifying intensity. I slump on his shoulder,
SiennaKorrin and I leave the Nilsson house equipped with just a single backpack packed with food. I have no idea where the portal is. I have never seen one, and I might just be the first werewolf to travel through one. It is a bit nerve-wracking to think about, but Korrin doesn’t seem on bit worried.He walks with a purposeful stride, despite wearing nothing but a toga. I try to keep up in my tiny white sneakers, but I’m getting tired already.“You think it would be the end of the world if I shape-shifted?” I ask Korrin, who turns around with an amused smile and gleaming eyes. He looks majestic in the moonlight, even as a fugitive.“Shape-shifting probably isn’t wise…unless you want your Alpha to be able to find us easier. Stronger presence in your wolf form, right?”“Th-that’s…true…” I avoid being thwarted by a tree branch, grateful when Korrin stops in his tracks to hold another one to make it easier for me.I lift my chin. “Thanks.”He smiles down at me. “You’re welcome.”We conti
SiennaI’m the luckiest werewolf on the planet. My mate is always generous when delivering me my orgasms, but I can’t be focusing on cuddling with him. I wish I could, but my mind is already spinning with panic since, suddenly, my brain is working properly again. The afterglow is making me smart…until I look at Korrin and most of my brain cells parachute their way out of my ears. He smirks. “Thinking of another round?”My mouth is dryyyy. He is such a snacc, but I gotta focus!“No, I’m…” I trail off. I’m thinking about Felix, but saying that to Korrin right now probably wouldn’t be the most romantic. Yet, it isn’t a lie.Felix is going to come for us and now after sex I realize Korrin and I need to leave this place. Especially since I have this strong feeling that Felix is already onto us. I can’t explain it, but there is this fear and awareness coursing through my entire system. As if my wolf can feel Felix’s rage, even though it shouldn’t be possible. …I am acting crazy, aren’
KorrinThe world is red, but not with rage. With fear.Sienna is unconscious in my arms. Her skin is burning up, and I know I’m going to lose her if I stay here. My feelings for her are a storm breaking inside my skull. I don’t want her to die. I don’t want to lose her. I just found her!“Stay wit
SiennaAstrid and Maya are no longer here. They promised to give me another day to think about what to do and while they recommended me to ask Korrin to leave tonight, I can bring myself to do it.My heart aches too much when I think about it. How could it not when he is my mate?Le sigh. Life is
SiennaKorrin isn’t holding me when I wake it. It confuses me. Confuses my wolf, too. I fell asleep with him holding me, but here I am, aching while touching an empty mattress where he should be. Maybe he woke up and decided not to wake me?The scent of coffee is coming from the kitchen. It makes m
KorrinI should leave my mate alone. Sit on the floor and keep guard for these creatures they call vampires, but the mate bond is making my face strain. Everything inside of me begs me to be close. Not just beside, but in her bed and holding her like she is mine. Zareth are very physical beings. It
