Hot Chapters

Chapter Four

By the time he pulled away, Catherine’s knees were shaking. He raised his index finger to trace along her jaw to her cheek and then her plush lips. She opened them on a soft moan. As if drawn in by the sound he leaned his head down and touched his lips softly to hers. An electric current like a static shock ignited upon his touch. He pulled back, just as startled as her.

Chapter One

Catherine pulled her rusty truck into the parking spot behind Gulf Breeze Farms and slammed the door shut with an ear-splitting creak. Hearing the familiar sound, Matt, the owner of the farm, peaked his head around the curtain and smiled. 'Catherine! So good to see you, as always,' he said with a wink.

Chapter Ten

Graham cursed Arabella for daring to interfere with his homecoming. Surely she’d heard he’d found his mate and thought to drive a wedge between them from the get go. He’d punish her for it later. Right now, his focus was on his mate as she fought her natural instincts to eradicate a rival lycan female.

Chapter Three

Catherine’s head was still spinning as she parked her truck behind the bar. She noticed two of the bar’s security men were posted at the back door. She stepped out and walked up to them. 'Toma? What’s going on?' she asked the smaller of the two. She knew better than to try to get any information out of Timone, his older, much larger brother.

Chapter Two

Graham caught up to Jensen, Mark and Stuart. He ignored their curious eyes as he resumed his position ahead of them to make sure there weren’t any threats as they made their way to the meeting with Alpha Nathan. The look of disappointment on his mate’s face kept replaying in his mind.
