5 Brothers & The House of Stray A Demon's Patience
Lasci stared at Bastian with dislike when he walked into the kitchen. “Yes, my pack, my house, remember you are a guest here. I don’t tolerate bullshit from my brothers, so I won’t tolerate it from you either, King or not,” Lasci threateningly responded. Bastian grinned at him innocently in return before responding, “My apologies. I was only formally introducing myself to the young lady.” They both stood there, making everyone uncomfortable while quiet tension filled the room. Johnathan’s sudden light cough broke the heavy air of silence, “Might I suggest that we save the beef because we are having seafood for dinner? Now, I am unsure of what to make for the, um, guest. We have plenty of raw steaks if you prefer?” Lasci had turned to look at Purity’s face the moment Johnathan mentioned raw steaks for Bastian and swore he caught the look of disgust. This made him feel amused and hopeful that the vampire’s need for blood may gross her out and, in turn, create distance between t

Johnathan slipped with the knife while banging the cutting board before he sighed and turned to answer her shaking his head, “No, I do not. Well, not to visit. I can go back when I’m charged with handling something pertaining to the Stray family, but other than that, I have no love lost for that place.” Again Purity responded, “Oh,” before sipping a glass of water. She watched Johnathan turn back around and decided to probe further, though she knew she was being a little too nosey, “So why, then?” “Why what, dear?” “Why don’t you want to visit home, without it being some job to do or whatever? I mean, I read Hell was an awful place and all, but if you’re a demon, isn’t that normal? Wouldn’t you want to go back home? Don’t you have a family or something?” Silence filled the stark white kitchen before Johnathan finally burst out laughing and turned back to look at her, “Well, that is truly a first for me! You are asking if I have parents? My dear, you are charmingly oblivious. To a

Heading downstairs, he ran into Amorous coming out of the kitchen hallway with Johnathan and Purity coming from the great room, followed by Pru and Bastian. “What’s going on?” Pru asked, looking at Amorous and Lasci. “Has anyone seen Libidi?” Everyone shook their head no before Pru said, “He hasn’t been back since he left earlier, I believe.” Lasci nodded, already knowing that fact. A wet wolf smell was just as bad as a damp dog smell, if not worse. “Johnathan, can you help Amorous keep an eye on Tener? The lazy idiot pushed his wolf too hard, and they both will suffer from it now,” Lasci asked Johnathan. The butler nodded before heading upstairs. Lasci turned to Pru, “You come with me, I’ll head to the front of the house toward the garage, and I want you to search the woods behind the garden for Libidi. We have a trespasser again,” he said pointedly, looking at Bastian, “and I don’t want Libidi caught unaware.” Pru nodded and kicked off his house shoes before heading toward t

Lasci could tell Bastian was about to attack the young female wolf, “Stop, Bastian. I won’t let my brother’s life end because of your lack of foresight. She could have done it by now if she was going to harm him. Back off for a moment.” The female wolf didn’t realize that Lasci and Pru had come upon them because she tightened her grip as she turned to get more threatening words and whimpers of fear from Libidi. “Stupid bitch! I’ll kill you! My brothers are here, and you're dead, hear me? FUCKING DEAD!” The female didn’t respond, but her hair stood on end as she eyed Lasci and then Pru. Bastian vaporized next to Lasci’s wolf, “Don’t blame me if your brother is turned into a muted ball of fluff.” Lasci rolled his eyes and started to step cautiously toward the female, “Release my brother. The odds aren’t in your favor. So why have you been circling my territory without announcing your presence?” The female wolf narrowed her golden eyes at him and spoke, it took some time as she tri

“Fahla, and yours is Bastian?” He nodded, “For short. And no, I am not bound but choose to be here.” “I didn’t ask and don’t care to be honest. It’s none of my business why a vampire would be chilling out with a pack of wolves. But let me ask you, what’s his name because he sure and the hell sucked at introductions.” “Lasci, for short,” Bastian responded, watching Fahla throw herself to the ground and laugh with her paws in the air. “Lassie, like the collie critter with Timmy?” Bastian smiled, “Yes, exactly like that.” After they both stopped mocking him, Fahla asked, “So if I show up at their door, what do you think the odds are I’d be digging my own grave? Bastian thought for a moment and then answered, “As good as any, I believe.” Fahla smiled and said, “Good, I could always use a workout.” She darted into the woods suddenly, leaving Bastian there to shake his head in amusement before he turned into a mist that blended with the steamy fog coming up from the ground. *** W

Everyone had managed to sit down for dinner, but it wasn’t the usually pleasant and funny atmosphere. Libidi still held a grudge against Fahla, and Lasci was unhappy initially. Purity tried smoothing things over, but none of the brothers or Bastian seemed comfortable. Finally, after an argument with Lasci, causing him to get up from the dinner table and leave, Purity lost her appetite and invited Fahla to stay in her bedroom for the night. “Ignore him. He’ll get over it,” Purity said, referring to Lasci and slamming her bedroom door after Fahal made her way in. The female wolf laughed in amusement, “You’re impressive, kid. Every Alpha I’d ever come across wouldn’t just sit there and argue before finally pouting and leaving the room.” Purity laughed nervously, “Yeah, well, I'm sure he’ll make me pay for it later. But I don’t care. He had no right saying that.” Purity plopped on her bed, and Fahla jumped up on the creamy pink sofa across from her and lay down, “He’s right, tho

Pru ran to the balcony and was sure he caught sight of her for only a moment before she disappeared along the dark tree line. Going back inside quickly, he shut the door as quietly as possible, seeing Purity was still asleep. Walking fast, he left the room to run down the stairs and chase after Fahla. But he stopped, suddenly hesitant. Pru knew if the female wolf wanted to stay, she would have. He couldn’t understand why she’d left, but what was even more confusing was how she managed to jump down off the balcony when that was something even he couldn’t do without almost injuring himself. Of course, Lasci had jumped off his own balcony a few times in wolf form, but Lasci was an Alpha, so it was understandable. “Is Fahla a true Alpha female?” Pru wondered to himself. “Are they asleep?” Lasci asked, coming from the great room and looking up the stairs at Pru. Pru nodded, “Well, Purity is, but the female wolf is gone.” “Gone? Gone where?” Pru shook his head, “No clue Lasci.

Walking over to the kitchen window, Lasci peeked through the blinds. Only blackness looked back at him with the occasional light display from the storm that stayed in the clouds. He wasn’t worried about Fahla but about how Purity would take the news that the female wolf had left. At dinner, he couldn’t help noticing the easy conversation between them and the laughter coming from Purity. They appeared to be close in such a short amount of time. It was the same with his brothers, too. She could talk comfortably with them and joke about things. So why did he always feel outside her circle, like a stranger sometimes? Purity lay in bed with her eyes closed while the morning light tickled her lashes. She didn’t dream but a tiny bit about Lasci. Recalling it, she could remember the feeling, and the images remained of them both staring across from each other, standing on opposite sides of a small creek. There were urban displays of everyday human life behind Purity, and behind Lasci wa

5 Brothers & The House of Stray Braced Against Tile
It was Tener. Standing there with one hand holding the towel closed and the other on the stall, he looked at her with deep blue eyes. Water was dripping from his tawny hair plastered along the side of a very trim, muscular arm. She could see the muscles on his stomach rippling south below the towel. Letting out a loud squeak, Purity turned, hiding her face, “TENER! This is the women's shower!” He didn't respond, but she could feel the burn of his gaze on her naked backside. At that point, the shower sound was muted because she clearly heard the slip and drop of his towel. “What are you doing?” she asked, still hiding her face, not daring to turn around. Suddenly warm, gentle hands slipped up her waist and beneath her arms before gently cupping her full breasts. “Shhh, don’t move…,” he said, pressing his hardness against her backside and leaning to her ear. Purity was stuck. She didn’t want this, even as she protested, but something in her made her stay still and not resist, “Te
5 Brothers & The House of Stray Shower Thoughts
Johnathan's laughter rang through the phone as Lasci started to undress to ready his wolf, "What's so funny?" he asked, kicking off his shoes. "A moment, please, let me gather myself," Johnathan said, trying to calm the laughter, "You have no need to rush out as if saving the day, Lasci. The shifter is harmless. We've already had a nice chat over the phone, and as for Purity, I will say she's enjoying her dominance over Tener. I brought them to the gym for some blood-pumping exercise and discipline. It turns out our Purity is quite the little fox when it comes to handling your brother. She has had him on his back several times after learning only a few moves. I admire her capabilities, to be honest." Lasci took a deep breath and leaned against the wall in the foyer, "You took them to the gym, for a date?" "Yes, why? It's perfectly normal, and it allows them to be close physically. Is there something wrong with that, Lasci?" As much as Lasci wanted to yell into the phone, "YES
5 Brothers & The House of Stray Bastian's Certainty
Bastian smirked, “Thought you’d find that worth staying in my company for a moment. After your bad form toward my love, everyone left the dinner table. So, eventually, I found myself waiting on her balcony with no intention of eavesdropping. But, mind you, it just happened that way. I must have caught the tail end of something because one minute, they were talking about your nasty declaration, and the next, the female wolf was attempting to open the balcony door. I was about to hide myself when your brother, Pru, came in the bedroom door and caught her attempting to leave.” Lasci shook his head, irritated, “You’re telling me something I already know, Bastian. Get on with it, or I’ll lose my patience.” Bastian smiled innocently, “I’m getting there, be patient. Now, where was I? Oh yes, her leaving and your brother coming in. So they had exchanged a few words, and the female wolf left.” Bastian acted like that was the end of it, and Lasci snapped, “You’re wasting my time.” “
5 Brothers & The House of Stray No Sign
Lasci paced the floor, his mind on edge about Purity and everything he said the night before. Now that Fahal had left, he was worried Purity might hate him even more. The front door opened, breaking his thoughts when Pru came in. “Any luck?” Prus shook his head, “Nothing. She’s either covered her trail perfectly or had help.” Running his hands desperately through his hair Lasci swore, “Fuck, I bet that vampire helped her. Where is he?” “I haven’t seen him since dinner last night. It’s possible he helped her leave, but we can’t be certain. If the female wolf was here, in fact, looking for a mate, I doubt she would have left regardless of what the situation was. Not all of us will be mated to Purity, so she had a chance. If you ask me, I think she was just looking for a place to hide before moving on. Refuge, in a manner of speaking.” Lasci nodded in agreement but still felt uneasy about it, “What do you think we should tell Purity? 'Her newfound companion just up and left b
5 Brothers & The House of Stray Sometimes It's A Smile
Purity watched as Johnathan threw a wave out the van’s window and drove off. She was nervous about being left in Tener’s care but decided she could fend for herself by turning away from him and heading straight into the kitty café. Small mews from the kittens in a small enclosed sitting area reached her ears, and the smell of baked goods and tea filled her nose. A standing sign greeted her and read, “Find your seat, lift your feet, and get cozy. Our fluffy friends will find their way to you. They are well behaved and will let you enjoy your meal in peace (All cooked breakfast is chef’s choice, baked items are created fresh every morning.).” Purity giggled because at that moment, a large, short-haired tabby rubbed against her legs and meowed loudly, demanding attention. “Awe, aren’t you precious? Come here, big guy,” Purity cooed as she picked up the tabby to cuddle him. “Welcome! Sit anywhere you’d like, and I’ll be with you shortly,” a cheery male voice said from behind a high d
