Blood Moon

Brenna The huge white wolf must have said something to them in their Pack Mind, because the three wolves nodded once. Then he headed over to the she-wolf. His body shimmered, morphing and changing until he was in his human form. “Marcia?” he cooed, kneeling beside her. The woman looked up at him in her wolf form, lying in a puddle of her own blood, as her eyes met his. Then her body morphed and changed, shimmering until she was in her human form, a beautiful woman with long, snow-white hair covered in blood. She raised her hand and placed it on his cheek as the battle raged around us. She said nothing, but her hand fell from his face as she took her last breath. “No!” the man with white hair screamed, throwing his head back, nearly a howl. Then he lifted her lifeless body carefully into his arms and started to carry her away. Then he froze, obviously remembering me. “You!” he growled, narrowing his eyes at me. “You will pay for this! I will make sure you receive the ultimate humili

Adan “Sir, I urge you to consider attending the Auction tonight,” Mason said for the seventh time today. “Either that, or you could take Hailey as your Mate and be done with it.” Hailey Sims was a member of the Pack, and I’d known her for years. In fact, everyone had expected me to marry her and take her as my Mate after my father’s death. “For the hundredth time, I don’t love her!” I slammed down my bourbon and then rose to my feet. “I refuse to take a woman that’s not my Mate.” Mason let out a deep breath. “Alpha Cole, just choose a Mate! It’s not like—” “I said no!” I growled, heading back to the bar to refill my glass. Then I turned to face the fireplace, watching the orange, red, and yellow flames lap hungrily at the log on the far wall. “She’s out there. My Mate. I know she is.” I took another sip. “Sir… Alpha Cole… you may be a Mafia Don to the humans, but I don’t have to remind you that since your father’s death, you’re now the King of the Moon Shadow Pack. The Alpha. And

Adan In an instant, my world shifted, and she was now the center of it... my reason for living. My inner wolf growled, choosing her as his Mate, too. “Well...” The gentleman wearing the white dinner jacket smiled at the crowd, looking around the room. “What do you say we start the bid at fifty thousand dollars?” I casually held up my number. Although I would pay any price to have her, I didn’t want anyone else in the room to know just yet. Fifty thousand was a joke for a woman like her, and everyone knew it. “We have fifty thousand from the gentleman in the booth.” The Master of Ceremonies smiled as he looked over the crowd. “Do I hear sixty thousand?” “Sixty thousand,” said another gentleman, holding up his sign across the room. My head snapped up, and I instantly recognized him. It was Blaze Marrow, Alpha of the Silver Star Pack. His eyes met mine, giving me a sinister smile. “One hundred thousand.” I arched an eyebrow, smiling back. “Two hundred thousand,” he replied, giving

Brenna “There’s no one left.” Adan gave me a kind look. “What happened?” I glanced over at him, and his eyes were filled with concern. “My Pack was attacked, and my parents and my brother were killed, along with the rest of my Pack.” He nodded, understanding. “You were part of the High Claw Pack.” My head snapped up. “You know of my Pack?” He nodded. “I heard of the attack after the fact.” A crease formed between his eyes. “How did you survive?” I let out a deep breath. “I killed the Alpha’s Mate, and he was determined to see me degraded. Humiliated. And he knew I would fetch a high price on the Black Market, since I’m a Princess.” My eyes met his. “And I did.” “You killed his Mate?” I shrugged. “She attacked me first, and I didn’t know who she was.” My eyes met his. “I ripped out her spine.” He nodded once, staring out the front window. “Tell me what happened.” I didn’t want to talk about it. What good would it do? No one could help me now. No one could save them. It was to

Adan Sitting in the car in front of the castle, I looked over at Brenna, one corner of my lips curling into a smile. “So, are you coming peacefully, or do I have to carry you?” Brenna scoffed. “Let me make one thing clear: I’m not sleeping in your room tonight.” “No, you’ll have your own private quarters, but you’re welcome in my room anytime you like.” I chuckled, enjoying teasing her a bit more than I should. “But until I can trust that you won’t run, you’ll be under lock and key.” “So, I’ll be your prisoner,” she said flatly, understanding. “No, you’re my Mate.” I let out a deep breath. “But until I can trust that you won’t run, then yes, you’ll be my prisoner. But the sooner you prove yourself, the sooner the locks will be removed.” “Oh, no! I’m no one’s prisoner!” Brenna tried to open her door, but it was locked... and I had the controls. I sighed, looking out the window. My guards were standing on the wide circular porch, waiting. “Brenna, we can do this the easy way or th
