Alpha Cain Chapter sixteen - Cain
We arrive at the university and hang around for it to open. It's the end of the break so there's only a handful of students milling around and no sign of Flame or any of her friends. Kade is still suppressed, so I have to rely on Darius to pick up on scents and it's fucking frustrating, he can smell residual scents from werewolves, vampires, sirens and numerous other creatures, but nothing that links us to Flame or her friends.A fairy, ever wanting to appear useful, tells us that there are four campuses and the business students are not here, but one in the next town over. Giving us detailed directions, she waves us on our way with wishes of luck.We get there and it's huge, I feel useless and it's not something I'm used to feeling. I know she's here somewhere, but not being able to find her is driving me crazy.Darius picks up the scent of a werewolf and so, while he follows it to see if they know anything, I make my way to the admin department in the hope that I'll find her addres

"Seriously, why would you think I had a wife?" Cain looks at me with shocked wide eyes even though it was Gale that blurted out his secret and my chest constricts with pain as a vision of him sitting with her outside that restaurant flashes into my brain. His hand reaches for mine and I flinch away from his touch, my anger that he toyed with my feelings and put me in danger, overtaking any logic or questions about why he's here."Look at me." He says, snatching my hand into his and refusing to let go. "I am not and I have never been married."He looks so sincere, my gut tells me he's truthful, but then who was that woman and why would that man tell me he was?"Who was the blonde woman you were with at the restaurant then? When you told us you were working?" Gale's voice is dripping with accusation and mistrust, but when his fingers lace through mine, I don't resist and I hate myself for giving in when the evidence was literally right in front of my face only yesterday.I'm pathetic a
Alpha Cain Chapter eighteen - Cain
My father's door smashes with a satisfying crash, breaking in half with small fragments flying inside the room and instinctively he's up on his feet, ready to shift and fight off the intruder.His eyes widen when he sees it's me, but the fear only increases and I'm glad he knows what to expect.I waste no more time, launching myself at him and allowing Kade to shift in seconds in mid air. My fury is nothing compared to Kade's, he knew all along it was something to do with my father and we don't need to know the details, just the knowledge that he lied to us, to her, and sent her away confirms what he's up to.My teeth tear chunks from wherever they can latch on, my claws digging into his skin. He's shifted, but both he and his wolf know we're stronger, they can see that this is the end for them and I can see the acceptance in his eyes."He wants to die." Kade snarls, releasing his bite on my father's neck just enough to let the blood pour over us. "This is what he wants. I won't make

"I need you to distract Darius tonight so I can ask him." I watch through the crack in the toilet door as Selena Wilkins fluffs her horrible hair and makes her stupid lips look gross and sticky with her lip gloss. What sort of thirteen year old needs lip gloss? And high heels, they're totally impractical for anything, we live on the Moors for Goddess' sake! Not that I'm being petty or anything because for the last few minutes she's been talking about how hot Coal is and how she is going to make him her boyfriend. "Like you'll be able to get anywhere near him. You know his shadow will be there too." Her best friend Valkyrie Evans smirks at her in the mirror, dabbing the sticky goop on her own lips and smacking them together like a girl twice her age. "Amelia Cousins reckons they're secretly a thing." "Pfft… as if he even sees her as a girl. She dresses like a guy and is always wrestling with him, just like the other guys in training." Selena scoffs, rolling her eyes and then grinning
Alpha Cain Chapter twenty - Cain
Unsure where else to take her, I drive to the cliffs, knowing she used to love it here and hoping she still will.She questions me incessantly about what Darius will do with the "creature", asking me what it was and whether there's a zoo nearby because it looks like the thing that chased her, although she adamantly refuses to accept it's the same one, saying the one before looked healthy, while this one looked like it had mange.It's stressful trying to think of lies to tell her and by the time I park the car, I've decided to be honest with her about what I am, what she is and what happened. At least what I know of it anyway. I'm not sure how she'll react, it almost never goes well when real human mates first find out, but this situation is even more complicated."Oh wow. This is so beautiful." She gasps, getting out of the car and turning around, she frowns then as if trying to remember something and my heart stops, wondering if coming here has triggered her memory. "I think I must h

I'm going through the motions as though this is all real, but I'm fairly certain I'm either dead, or in a coma, likely as a result of that creature. It would make a lot more sense that it had hurt or killed me, than everything that has happened since and I'm not sure if I even want to wake up. Everything I've ever wanted is here. Cain has practically told me we're soulmates and is holding my hand as we walk through his home to meet a loving family that I've always wanted but never had, and my friends are here too. It's like I've got everything I need all under one roof. Even his father, who clearly didn't want me near his son, has apologised and accepted me. Life doesn't work like this, so it can't be real. The only thing making me question myself is that I've never had a dream before where I know I'm dreaming, but then I've never been in a coma before, so maybe that feels different? Cain and his father seem to communicate silently with angry facial expressions and despite their po

I drove Flame back to my house after the visit with her family. She's struggling with all this and I wish I could help, but she needs this time on her own. She asked for the notepad of her dreams and when I left, she was sitting with her friends, tearing page after page from the book and trying to figure out the correct timeline. I offered to help, but she refused, explaining how she wanted to try and remember herself, not be given the memories by someone who was there.But at least she's accepting who she is!As much as it pains me to leave her, I am meant to be on patrol duty, which I would have passed over onto Darius if Flame has needed me to stay with her, but since she's occupied, I'll check the borders Darius and I have to meet my father, to interrogate the rogues we picked up at Flame's university home.As per usual, they've been chained in the underground cells, without food or water, since we brought them back with us. It'll be almost 48 hours by the time we go in to questio
Alpha Cain Chapter twenty-three -Leila
Waking up in Cain's arms feels right, he's like the calm amongst the crazy. I've accepted that something is going on and I don't know if I'll ever understand it, but this is the new normal I guess.Cain pretends to still be asleep when I turn to look at him, I can tell he's pretending because his eyes are forced shut and his mouth keeps twitching like he's trying not to smile."Morning, stay asleep. I'm just going to get some uni work done before Calista does that self defence class with us." I whisper in his ear, throwing the blanket off of myself and then, with a little burst of confidence, I lean down and kiss him on the lips.I'd anticipated just a quick peck, but as soon as our lips touch, his arms wrap around me, pulling me against him and rolling so he's got me pinned me beneath his body. "Morning." He grins down at me and while there's nothing especially erotic about his smile, there seems to be another part of him that seems very awake, separated only by the material of his
