Wolf Crying Mate of the Alpha by Jazz Ford

‘Who’s there?’ I shout out the window. ‘Come out now, and I might let you live,’ I c***k my knuckles and climb out the window. When Reaper lets out a caw, I know he’s located something… or someone. So I take a step forward and tackle the person. ‘Don’t kill me, please don’t kill me,’…

‘You wouldn’t have to ask,’ he says. He kisses me passionately, and suddenly Alec’s face flashes through my mind. I break the kiss and struggle for air. ‘Nina, what is it?’ Magnus says. ‘I’m sorry, I need to go. I’ll be back later,’ I say, hurriedly putting my shoes back on. ‘Skedaddle Dash,’ I say…

As we exit and follow Yiselda, Magnus escorts Alpha Amir and Alpha Theaton inside. ‘To that circle over there,’ Yiselda tells Alpha Bennet. He walks in front of her as they get closer. She pushes him into the circle while clutching his shirt, and they both vanish. We enter the portal and emerge from Pandora’s…

‘Well, if you want to go in the cell and risk your life trying to stake his heart, be my guest. But, even then, we don’t even know if that will work,’ Yiselda says. ‘You’d probably be dead before you could blink since he has incredible strength and speed and would drain your blood in…

‘Give this note to Alpha Bennet immediately,’ I mind-link him. He nods and flies out the window. My mind transmits over to Reapers again as he soars above the Wolf council. They come to a standstill in amazement at the black mist emanating from Reaper’s feathers as he soars lower and circles them. Alpha Bennet…

‘Well, lucky for me, King Alec, you’re imprisoned behind these bars. I also don’t plan to be on your menu. Sorry, you won’t get to take a bite,’ I grin. He gives me a curious look for a few moments. ‘I don’t intend to stay in here indefinitely, Luna,’ his demeanour softening. ‘How did you…

‘Next time, Luna,’ Ria says with a smile. ‘All right,’ I remark as I walk towards the lake. I remove my clothes and dive into the lake. Reaper perches on a nearby tree. Closing my eyes, I float on my back. Flashbacks of King Von grabbing hold of my wrist, the subtle burn on my…
