Their Secret Obsession by Pippa Moon

Kane POV

My body met with the floor with a resounding thud as Astaroth released his magical hold, leaving me battered and bruised but fueled by a seething hatred that burned hotter than any physical pain. Every bone in my body ached, while each muscle screamed in protest, but none of it compared to the fire raging in my chest-A hatred that refused to be extinguished. "Brother!" Knox gasped, his face grimacing at me with concern. Did I really look like that bad?

"Yes." Rolo announced, making me frown. "But not for long." He added as his healing powers exploded to life inside me, making every nerve-ending buzz with excitement. With his strength and Knox's support, I struggled to my feet, every movement getting easier with each passing second.

"Thank you, bud." I groaned inwardly as, together, we made our way to where Charlotte stood. My heart raced hearing her argue with the demon. "She is turning into such a little firecracker- I loved it!" I mused to my wolf, his chuckle making me regret my words instantly. "I will remind you of that when she is being a brat later." Rolo muttered before going silent, allowing me to catch the exchange between them.

"Brother, are you ok?" Knox asked, his hands releasing me as I stretched up, my bones clicking back into place, my aches and pains vanishing along with my patience hearing Astaroth express his concerns for our daughter.

"Is he right?" I asked Rolo, his whine all the answers I needed.

"She will be..."

"A Threat." I finished, my girl's eyes finding mine, relief exploding across her face. I opened my mouth to speak, but she was already crossing to me, her arms flying around me as she buried her face in my neck, inhaling deeply. I did the same, quickly sucking down her beautiful scent of honey and ash. As my heart recovered, my eyes remained locked on Astaroth, watching him curiously, but he did not attempt to step in between us and pull her away.
