Whitecaps shimmer against the blazing sun across the empty horizon. Adjusting the knob on my binoculars, I squint into the glare.

“We’re lost again, right?”

Niko wears a smirk that I want to slap off his face when I spin to meet his gaze. It fades when he reads my expression, and he turns to the parrot on his shoulder, which he’s hand-feeding a slice of mango.

“You know we’re not lost,” I snap. “We’re off course.”

“By a million miles,” he says in a smartass tone before holding a hand up in

    Zachariah“I’m sorry,” I say the minute I see her eyes widen. “I didn’t mean to frighten you. Did you not feel it?”“I—” She pauses, taking a breath. “Yes, I did. But this can’t be real, right?”“Why wouldn’t it be?”“You... you’re the Alpha King!” she says. “I’m just a peasant girl from a farm,” she adds, lowering her voice and looking around as if I would ever feel ashamed of our mate bond.And I have no doubt now that’s what this is. I’ve felt the sensation before, after all, with my Catherine. This is a little different, somehow. It’s still a very powerful mate bond. But it’s not quite... complete, I suppose the word is, though I don’t understand what that means. Maybe this is what it feels like to have a second-chance mate.That’s something we’ll discuss later, or maybe I’ll just keep it to myself. I don’t want Madeline to think she is one single ounce less precious to me than Catherine was.“I assure you, Madeline,” I begin, rising and reaching out my hand for her. “You are not

    MaddieMy legs no longer work. My lungs are frozen, and my heart stopped beating the moment the prince called my number.With the apparent strength of an ox, Ellie hauls me out of the ballroom, back into the door we’d used to enter the ballroom. As we walk, flowing skirts disappear around the bend in the hall up ahead.“He picked you!” Ellie lets out a barely hushed squeal the moment we’re alone in the hallway, and she hops a few times, her excitement uncontainable. “You did it! We did it! Oh, my Goddess! This is the best thing that ever happened in my life!”I manage to turn my head toward her, but my vision is fuzzy, and those frozen lungs prevent me from speaking a single word. Her head is sort of circling around in my vision like a clock face, even though she’s still jumping with excitement and not quite moving that way. Despite my daze, I want to ask her what she means, who she is talking about. Whatever just happened, surely, it’s a mistake.Right?He read the wrong number. He

  • Pregnant with Four Alphas' Babies Vol. 2: Descendants    The Choice

    Zachariah“Ah, my boy! What a lineup you have to choose from! You should pick more than one just for fun, eh? Eh?! Ha, ha!”I can ignore my father’s disgusting monologue, which all but disappears while I’m lost in the red-haired woman’s gaze, but he’s jutting his elbow into my ribcage so sharply, I have to grab it to make him stop.And that forces me to break eye contact with her and look at him. “Father, please....”I’m struggling to remember her name. Father had me so distracted as the women were announced, though I think I caught a syllable. Was it Megan? Marie?A murmur rises in the crowd behind us. I can make out the comments of those immediately behind us. The men’s reactions aren’t much better than my father’s. The women ruthlessly judge each other, tearing apart every detail of their gowns, their faces, their stance... as if any one of them would have the guts to stand there while being gawked at in such a way.I know why they’re like that. This is years of my father influenci

    Maddie“Do you really think this is necessary?” I ask.“No,” Ellie answers. “You’re so beautiful, you don’t need makeup. But if you don’t put a little on, you won’t fit in around the castle.”“Do I need to fit in?”“Yes,” she answers firmly. “Now, close your eyes.”I obey, and the light pressure of the applicator tells me she’s adding color to my eyelids. “All I’m doing is enhancing your natural beauty,” she adds. “You’ll get used to it if the prince chooses you.”“I—oh.” I hadn’t thought of the possibility that the prince might actually choose me, and I’ll have to stay in the castle and... be with him. “You don’t think he will, do you?”She chuckles. “Of course I think he will. Why do you think I’m going to all this trouble? Out of all the ladies I’ve seen arrive, you have the most natural beauty of them all. Open your eyes.”I do so, and she spins the stool I’m sitting in so that I face the mirror. “Look at those eyes of yours, Miss Stone.”“Please, call me Maddie.”“Okay, Maddie,”

    Zachariah“Zach, you alive in there?”Lucas’s mind-link message has me snapping out of whatever temporary trance I’d been in as I watched the red-haired woman disappear down the hallway. She walked with such grace and beauty, and when she looked back to meet my gaze, those sparkling bright blue eyes had me captivated.But now that she’s gone, I turn to another set of eyes, and these are boring through me with enough heat to burn a steak.“You’re supposed to be madly in love with me, remember?” April cuts through Lucas’s mind-link with one of her own, and it’s not gentle. “Why on earth would you stand there gawking at some commoner in rags right in front of me?!”“I wasn’t gawking,” I argue. “And I—just forget it, April.” I don’t get why April even cares since all we’re doing is faking a relationship, so I turn back to the diplomat from Iron Pack that Lucas and I had been speaking to. The man has a bit of a smirk on his face. “Let’s continue our conversation later,” I suggest. “Though

    EthanMy unofficial aunt and uncle, Shelby and Sam, are riding with me in the SUV on the journey to the resort. Sam was once Beta for the corrupt Alpha King Gene, though Sam has always been an honorable man that I count as family. I’m not crazy about having my aunt in harm’s way, but there’s no st

    *Trisha*I’ve been staring at the ceiling for half the night, gazing at the rays of moonlight that slip through the curtain dancing on the ceiling. I don’t have my wolf yet, but I feel like she’s already restless. I understand my mom’s point of view. I’ve heard a thousand times about the kidnappin

He’s very good at bellowing, especially when he’s got an idea in his head.That’s never a good thing.“My spies are going to do a perfect job of infiltrating t
