After losing both her parents and being injured at a very young age, then losing her grandparents less than ten years later, Zariah is put under the guardianship of the Alpha and Luna. She had been raised around alpha heir Isaac since she came to live with her grandparents. Isaac was protective of her from day one and never stopped. When Izzy turns eighteen, she gets her wolf, Onyx, and finds that Isaac is her mate. Although she is happy that he is the one, how can she trust the mate bond? After all, the mate bond killed her parents, and the mate bond killed her grandmother after her grandfather was killed. She wants to be positive that she can trust the bond before she accepts it. Meanwhile, she finds that her wolf is a rare wolf and there are dark witches who wish to drain her of her wolf's power. They also find out that there are two other alphas trying to kidnap her in order to use her for her abilities. She wonders if she will ever be done fighting. Whether it's the mate bond or assholes coming after her for her abilities, it seemed she would always be fighting. She was even fighting with herself! What would it take to end the fighting?
View MoreZariah POV I was hurting worse than I ever have hurt before. The luna started whipping my back and I know it probably looks horrible. I could feel that it was shredded by the time she finished, but then she insisted that Nathan start. She nagged, “You will beat her into submission. Make her bow down to you.” He continued whipping me until there was no skin left to rip. He then poured wolfsbane into the wounds. I was doing my best to think of happier days during the whipping, and it did help. There was no way I was going to give them any indication of weakness. I managed to keep from screaming in pain when Onyx whimpered, “Let me take most of the pain. If I go away, I will be back. I will be healing myself. Okay?” I sighed, “Okay. Thanks, Onyx.” While he poured wolfsbane into my wounds, I let Onyx take the pain and she yelped, then whimpered, then retreated to the back of my mind. I immediately missed her presence when Nathan started kicking me in the stomach and face. I was sure th
Isaac POV I got out of the shower and went to dad’s office. I looked around for Zariah and asked my dad, “Where did Zariah go?” He answered, “She went to her house to take a shower and get ready to go.” I nodded, “Thanks.” I started to run out the door when Rolf started whimpering. I furrowed my brow, “What’s wrong Rolf?” Rolf answered, “Onyx says she has been taken by Big Creek pack.” I gasped as I ran back to dad’s office, I motioned for dad to follow me then started running to Zariah’s house. The first thing dad noticed were the two warriors on the ground. I was focused on getting inside the house. When I got to her room, I started panicking. I found a guy on the floor, just outside of her closet. It looked like my mate had taught him a hard lesson in underestimating his opponent. I wanted to punch him again and ask where she was. I mind linked dad, “Dad, you should come in here. You should bring a couple warriors with you.” While I waited, I looked in the bathroom and could t
I shook my head, chuckling, “Look, it’s a duplicate Alpha Tolvar.” He shrugged, “I could think of worse role models.” I cringed, “Yeah, I could think of a lot better too.” He chuckled, “Wow. So, my chosen mate is a smart ass.” He then slapped me, hard, across the face. I fell back onto the bed, then bounced right back up to my feet and punched him in the nose, breaking it. I sneered, “If you think you are going to beat this she-wolf into submission, you need to rethink your strategy, boy. This she-wolf has already taken out nearly every man your father sent to come after me. If they hadn’t drugged me this time, you would’ve had two men in our cells instead of one. So, you will not be able to tame me.” He sat up with a stiffened spine, “My mate is also a strong she-wolf. Please, let’s start over. I will not hurt you again.” I chuckled, “You think that hurt? You hit like a girl. I’ve taken much harder hits than that during training.” I sat down at the table and chairs in the corner o
I woke up with a pounding headache and in a room that was decorated for a woman. I was on a comfortable king size bed with pastel pink bedding. The curtains were also pastel pink and looked to be silk. The windows were huge and let in a lot of light. Everything in the room looked to be high end and far from the dungeon I was expecting. I sat up and put my hands to my head, “Onyx, are you there?” She yawned, “Yeah. Whatever they gave us was not wolfsbane. It was just a sedative.” I added, “That gave me a headache from hell.” Onyx suggested, “See if there is anything for it in the bathroom.” I stood up and sat back down, “The room feels like its floating or something.” Onyx agreed, “It does. Try again but go slower this time.” I slowly stood up and walked to the bathroom. The room was huge with marble floors and walls. The shower looked big enough for four people to shower with their own shower head. There was one wall, by the sink, that had floor-to-ceiling mirrors. There were two me
I looked at Alpha Kenny with a guilty expression and shrugged, “He had it coming. He was thinking of a way to prank the gamma, so I pranked him.” Alpha shook his head and chuckled, “And the thing with Gina?” I replied, “Serves Shawn right for rejecting her for one of the sluts. She needed a confidence boost and I wanted to show her how strong she can be.” Alpha nodded approvingly, “At least you are doing some good while you’re causing chaos.” I laughed my most evil laugh as he turned to Queen Winnie, “How is she doing?” Queen Winnie replied, “She’s catching on a lot faster than I expected. Her great-grandmother took a lot longer to be able to control one wolf.” I asked, “Didn’t Onyx help her?” Queen Winnie replied, “She was a sweet woman who didn’t take much interest in her gifts until she was nearly kidnapped by a rogue dragon. Then she felt like she was on a tight deadline.” Onyx huffed, “She wouldn’t listen to me at all. She was more stubborn than you are.” I laughed, “Onyx i
I woke up the next morning with my mate’s arms around me. I started stretching and found aches in places I had never felt aches in before. Isaac and I had made love three more times the night before and I was already ready for a break. After untangling my body from his hold and taking a quick shower, I dressed in my leggings and sports bra and sat in the kitchen, drinking coffee for an hour. I filled up a cup and took it to the bedroom. I sat it on Isaac’s side of the bed and went back to the kitchen, deciding to make breakfast. I made a couple of sausage and cheese omelets and took them to the bedroom on a tray. I sat on the bed and started eating. As soon as the smell of the omelets hit Isaac’s nose, I saw one eye open and I giggled, “Good morning, mate.” Isaac groaned, “Good morning. What time is it?” I chuckled, “It’s almost six a.m. I thought you might want to go to the gym and work out with me a
Onyx shouted, “Zariah, get back and let me take over. Relax as much as you can and enjoy our mate’s touch.” Isaac dropped to his knees and rubbed circles on my back. Just his presence helped, but his touch helped even more. The once excruciating pain turned to white-hot heat spreading over my skin as Onyx’s fur sprouted. A sudden sinus headache from hell spread over my face as my nose and mouth jutted from my face to form Onyx’s muzzle. Suddenly, all the pain, popping and cracking stopped and Onyx jumped to her feet. Isaac looked her in the eyes, “You’re the most stunning wolf I have ever seen.” Queen Winnie butted in, “I hate to break up your moment, but I really need to put this spell on Onyx. She needs to be undetectable by dark witches.” Isaac stepped back, took off his robe and shifted into Rolf while Queen Winnie was busy with Onyx. By the time she was done, everyone else shifted and Winnie looked at Onyx like she wanted to ask me something. Onyx nodded to Rolf and he ap
My immediate thought was, “This woman gives the best hugs.” Then Onyx came alive for a moment, “She is going to be an important figure in your life. She is a beautiful soul and so is her wolf. Trust her with our life. I must go back to sleep. I need rest for our shift.” I smiled, “It’s very nice to meet you.” I hugged Grandpa Joshua and he was just as comfortable. Grandpa Joshua smiled, “It’s very nice to meet you too.” I could tell Grandma Izzy was going to be a great source of comfort when we needed it. Just then, Queen Winnie popped in, “Hello, my dear!” I smiled, “Hello, Queen Winnie. I’m happy you came for dinner!” Onyx pushed forward and smiled, “Welcome friend. I can’t wait to work with you!” Queen Winnie smiled, “I can’t wait to see you again too, sweet pup.” Onyx huffed and retreated into my mind, a little butthurt from being called a pup. I chuckled and gave her a mental eye roll, “I don’t think she likes being called a pup.” Queen Winnie winked, “Why do y
I heard Luna Kyra giggle and Alpha Kenny taunted, “Oh, son, she’s playing hardball tonight. She knows you can’t do a damn thing about it until after her shift.” I heard Onyx purr in my head, “Rolf likes what he sees. Please tell me this means you’re going to let him mark us?” I answered, “I don’t know about that yet, but I might be persuaded to let them mate us.” I could tell she was grinning, “Well, that’s halfway there.” Before I knew it, I felt arms creep around my waist from behind me. I felt hot breath on my neck and low, sexy voice that damn near made me stop breathing, “You’re playing with fire, mate. I don’t know if I will be able to hold Rolf back.” I laughed, “You will if you want to have me after my shift tonight.” I heard him gasp and then he turned me to face him, then threw me over his shoulder and took me to my room. He kicked the door shut and threw me onto the bed. I laughed the entire time while he growled as he laid on top of me, “Do you mean that?” I hummed, “m
