Free Claimed by the Alphas: Part Six by Viola Rivard Page B
Authors: Viola Rivard
something Mila would absolutely not negotiate on.
As for Talon, both alphas were in agreement that he couldn’t stay, and neither would budge on the issue. He was young, but in time he would grow into a powerful alpha, which was not something her mates would tolerate in the den. Apparently, even unconventional alphas such as Asch and Caim had their limits.
On one of the cooler summer nights, Mila was overcome with the uncanny urge to clean. Chalking it up to delayed nesting syndrome, she handed Dawn off to her father and went down to their room, intent on tearing it up and reorganizing everything.
The room, with its constant influx of visitors, was a huge mess. Makeshift fur pallets were strewn across the floor and full of dust and dirt that the wolves had tracked in from outside. Her clothes were divided into three piles: dirty, clean, and somewhere in between, and all three of the piles were on the floor.
She sorted through the clothes, weeding out the ones she would probably never fit in to again, unless she lost some major baby weight. Once she had them all gathered up, she opened one of her old luggage bags, intent on stuffing them away—out of sight out of mind. Something caught her eyes though, the same thing that always did whenever she delved in to the remnants of her past.
Wolves of the Cordilleras . The golden embossed letters glittered in the candlelight. Mila stared at it thoughtfully, before tossing the clothes in the bag and zipping it back up. The urge to clean inexplicably passed, and all she wanted was to go back up to the main room with her daughter and her mates. Her family.
Mila would never forget Marie du Luponte, her mate, Rein, and the incredible story of their lives together. But she didn’t need t hat story anymore. Her own life was infinitely more amazing.
AUTHOR’S NOTE
Part Six is the final entry in Claimed by the Alphas , and I really hope you enjoy it. Ending this is so bittersweet, because although I look forward to writing other stories, I’ve really fallen in love with the characters in Claimed. I know a lot of readers have as well, and for those who haven’t read my blog, this is not the end of Mila, Asch, and Caim. While I won’t be tacking on additional parts, I will be writing a handful of novellas centering around their lives post-Dawn, to be released later this year.
For now, I’m working on a new series, Bound to the Alpha . A lot of readers suspected that Bound would be based around Talon. I definitely didn’t introduce him arbitrarily. His series is in the works, and will be my third series, to be released this autumn. It will take place a few years after Claimed, and I want time to expand on Mila’s story a bit more before I jump that far ahead into the future. So for Bound, I’m going to do something a little different and go backwards in time to visit Caim’s father, and his second mate, Sarah.
BOUND TO THE ALPHA
January, 1995
Sarah Harper has spent her life making all the right choices—yet somehow still ending up in all the wrong places. Most recently, her horrendous luck has left her stranded in the middle of the Appalachian wilderness with nothing but a parka and a pair of broken eyeglasses.
Cain is an alpha wolf who is already overburdened by obligations. Recognizing her dire predicament, he reluctantly takes on yet another responsibility—escorting the small, nearsighted human female back to her own kind.
Undeniably attracted to the gorgeous alpha, Sarah soon finds herself wanting to make very bad choices. Unlike Sarah, Cain understands the consequences that could arise from lying with a human, but with each day bringing them closer together, Cain isn’t sure he’ll be able to stop himself from being dangerously irresponsible.
