AZURA. That night Leo didn’t sleep well, tossing and turning and simply lying awake. When he did sleep, his dreams were full of bloodshed, drugs, guns, screams, and dead bodies. Every time he got up, I didn’t mention that I was getting them too, carefully keeping my walls up and keeping him close. When the first rays of the morning light crept through the crack in the curtain, Leo sat up running a hand through his hair and exhaling sharply. I placed a hand on his back, slowly sitting up. "What’s wrong, Blue-Eyes?" I asked, "You haven’t slept well all night." He turned to me, tangling his hand into my hair and kissing my jaw. "And I fucking ruined your sleep too." "Far from it, want to talk about it?" I asked softly, getting on my knees, and wrapping my arms around him from behind. My heart skipped a beat, and for a moment it felt surreal, knowing that this man was mine. All mine. I tightened my arms around his shoulders and kissed his neck softly. "It might make you feel lighter
AZURA. It was a not so powerful, but still a clear knock of panic. "Mommy! Daddy! There’s an emergency! Daddy!" Corrado’s panicked voice came, sending a rush of worry through me. I jerked back, as Leo sat up and quickly got out of bed, yanking his pants up. He rushed to the door, pulling it open. My heart thudded as I climbed out of bed, wondering what had happened as Corrado ran in. His eyes wide with terror, his pyjama top a little tight on his belly as he climbed onto the bed, clapping both hands on his cheeks, as he stared at us both with an expression of clear horror on his face. Leo smoothly sat down, placing a pillow in his lap. "What’s wrong my little cherub?" I asked, crossing my legs and pulling him into my lap. He shook his head, his little heart pounding. "I woke up and had a bad thought!" "A nightmare?" Leo asked. "Oh no Daddy, I was awake, and I remembered that Lucy from school kissed me yesterday! What if we made a baby? I don’t want to be a Daddy!" His eyes wer
LEO. "What’s wrong?" Dad asked, looking suddenly tense. What the fuck was up with him? Now wasn’t the time to ask him though, I needed to get this shit over with. Azura placed her hand on my thigh, and our eyes met for a moment before I wrapped my arm around her neck pulling her close and kissing her forehead. "I’ll start with my side business, as you already fucking know, I created some pretty lethal bullets." Dad nodded slowly, drinking his coffee. This wasn’t going to be easy, and I wasn’t going to fucking sugarcoat it or try to justify shit. "Well as you know, I have several businesses, one of which is the Heimtückische Wölfe…" I said, waiting for him to take that in. "Heimtückische Wölfe… that’s…" Realisation dawned on his face as he stared at me as if he had just been hit with a reality check. Guess he fucking had. "So.. Schurke Wolf… I often thought the name was ironic, how the fuck did I never see that…" "I'm not going to try to justify anything, but the Cartel was the
LEO. “There!” Emmet hissed as he glared up at me with hatred. Dad frowned, looking at him sharply. “How could you enter a place that is scarred with so much darkness?” “Because no one would ever think to look there.” I said quietly, taking a step back from the bastard on the floor. “None of us would ever think one of us would even step into that place willingly…” I looked at the metal walls of the cell, flashes of the dark stone walls of the caverns returning to the forefront of my mind. He smirked coldly. “You’re too late…” “Oh yeah? We’ll see about that. Why did you taint the drugs?” I asked. His smirk faltered, and he clenched his jaw as if not wanting to answer. “Why do you think? The more that die… because of you, the worse you would have felt… you were never one of us Leo, you were always one of them!” He hissed. So his only incentive was to make me feel guilty. How blinded was I to think he actually considered me a brother, but even I knew when someone was too far gone t
LEO. “I remember this place.” Jin said quietly, looking around. It was me, Azura, Jax and Dan as well. Ace and Li Sheng were still trying to track down Judah. We had come fully equipped just in case shit went down and I had Azura with us. I would not risk anything and intended to ask Raihana or maybe even Delsanra to place a protective spell around her, just in case something happened. I needed her and our pup safe. “Who doesn’t?” I replied to Jin. We spoke quietly, yet our voices seemed to echo through the dark tunnels, bouncing off the walls and reaching our ears. It had taken us two hours to get here, and now, with each passing moment, that dark feeling of foreboding grew. I looked around the darkness. I could still feel the darkness hanging in the air… as if a shadow of her presence remained within these caverns. My gaze went to the far wall. Just when we turned a bend, I remember when she had created a child Wendigo… Yet even as a monster; the child was a child… its eerie wai
AZURA. I stepped out of the shower, towelling my hair to see Leo sitting at the edge of the bed smoking a cigarette, lost deep in thought. His shirt buttons were open, with his elbows resting on his thighs, a few strands of his hair falling in front of his forehead. The boys had left not long ago, and we had retreated to our bedroom. It was past midnight, yet I wasn’t sleepy, despite the lack of sleep the night before. With everything going on, sleep just didn’t feel like a priority. “What’s on your mind?” I asked, tossing the towel into the washing hamper before walking over to him. I sat on his thigh, and locking my arms around his neck, I caressed the back of his neck. He looked up, tilting his head, as his eyes raked over me slowly. I was just wearing a sports bra and Brazilian briefs. No, the plan wasn’t to entice him, but with Leo's extreme stamina, which was incredible, he never seemed to get tired. Not that I’m complaining. I didn’t mind riding that dick day and night. A
LEO. Even with their masks, I knew who was who from their scents and build. I knew the curiosity of those around us would only be heightened because, for the first time, I had a woman by my side. I was always a private person. No one knew me as anything but Schurke Wolf. Then there was the fact I was down one of my regular men… The Six were always with me and today… today there were five… It still hurt, and I don’t think that the pain of his loss would ever completely go away… Rumours would be afloat, they probably fucking were already, but I was fine with that, anything to keep the attention away from the main reason we were here. I kept my hand on Azura’s waist; I hadn’t wanted her to come, but I also knew she was my mate, born to be my equal, and I had no right to control her decisions. If she was in my place, I sure as fuck wouldn’t stay back. But that also didn’t mean I was going to let her risk herself. We mingled, and Azura stayed silent behind her rhinestone chain face mas
LEO. “So, tell me, are you all a bunch of animals or are some of your men human?” Web remarked casually. I wasn’t the only one fucking shocked as the rest tensed at his words. “Didn’t your fucking informer tell you the answer to that shit since you seem to be all-knowing?” I remarked coldly, refusing to allow my shock to show. “Besides, you're clearly fucked up in the head if you even believe that trash. Not high are you, Web?” He chuckled, puffing away on his cigar. “Sure, he did. Let me ask though, common courtesy… besides you can pretend all you want, I’ve seen a lot boy.” “Right, so since you fucking know shit, how about you answer some questions?” I sat back, letting some of my alpha aura envelop me. “The bullets you purchased from my man, who did you sell them to?” He raised his eyebrow, “Ah… the type that is deadly to your kind… one shot and poof you’re dead.” He laughed as he made a gun with two fingers. ‘He’s a weirdo.’ Azura coughed again, and my eyes flashed. “Put th
KAREENA. “Mm?” I ask, my eyes closed. We didn’t sleep, and morning has arrived, but even now, I don’t want to sleep… I’m exhausted, but at some point, we began talking… too exhausted to make love any longer, but neither of us wanted to sleep. For the first time, we were so open; it felt beautiful. This night was beautiful. Goddess, he smells so good. His arm is under my head as we lay naked on the rug on the floor. I feel so damn achy but even now his naked body against mine is messing with me but even more than that, I am content. “Favourite colour?” he murmurs, his fingers combing through my hair soothingly. “White and blue… yours?” “Possibly grey or black.” His lips graze down my shoulder and a soft sigh escapes me. “Your dream?” I ask, my eyes fluttering open and I gaze into his eyes. He’s looking directly at me. His gorgeous green eyes are crystal clear, and I reach up, brushing my fingers through his hair. “To live a life with my sexy mate, my friends who are my family
JAX. I unbuckle my belt, pulling it out as I roll it up in my hands before tossing it aside. Some other day, I’m going to tie her up… She sits up, disobeying me as she drops to her knees, looking up at me. “I want a taste…” she whispers, making me throb hard, and I decide to forgive her this time. Fuck, she’s fine. “But I never said you can stop touching yourself,” I whisper dangerously. “You can punish me later,” she replies sassily, as she unzips my pants. The smell of her arousal is fucking driving me nuts and the way she’s looking at me with those sultry lust-filled eyes makes me want to fuck her hard. “I think I can let it slide this time,” I reply huskily. The moment her hand touches my cock, pleasure shoots through me like a fucking jolt and it’s way fucking better than imagining her stroking me. Fuck, it’s been way too long… and it makes it all the more better that it’s her. She lets go, allowing herself to pull my pants down, and I watch her intently as she pushes
KAREENA. “Real smooth tiger,” I say, rolling my eyes, but no… tell me, what’s on your mind? You seem quiet today,” I ask. There’s something wrong. I see the way he looks down for a moment before he moves back and glances at the kitchen. “Want some coffee?” “Sure,” I say. We walk to the kitchen, and he motions to the table, telling me to sit down. I perch against it, watching him make the coffee. Iced for me. I love how he knows my pattern. After I have just eaten, I’d usually go for iced and late in the night it would be normal. “How did it go up north?” I ask, breaking the silence. He tenses and I frown. For a moment, the craziest thought enters my mind and I close my eyes, almost smiling at how ridiculous that thought was. Why did I suddenly think there was another woman like he was nervous because something happened on his work trip? He isn’t mine for me to even think that way. Sure, that hurts, but I don’t have any claim on him when all I’ve done is keep him at arm’s len
KAREENA. My heart is pounding violently, almost as if it will jump out of my chest, and I turn away from the window. He can see me… Just the thought sends my entire body into a frenzy. I’m nervous, it’s weird how I can feel so but I don’t try to cover myself as I continue to towel my hair. He’s still watching me, his gaze burning into my back and only when I’m done drying myself do I walk away from the window. He wants me… just as I want him… that’s something I can no longer deny. Even if it does feel crazily surreal to me. It is the truth. Tilting my head, I look at the white and nude bustier I had chosen to wear… It’s a little… daring. I pull on some sexy panties before I squeeze into my skinny jeans and put on the top. Ok, so I look like I’m an open invitation saying ‘come get me’, which I kind of am right now. I pull it up over my breast. I pull my brown hair up in a messy yet sexy bun and quickly apply some makeup. Once my nails are painted, I look at the green shade I ha
JAX. Three nights. We were away from the pack for three nights. It was fucking worse than we thought, up here in the Scottish Highlands. There’s no sign of an enemy but this one was possibly the biggest attack if you can call it that. Leaving so many homeless. We had managed to rehouse them and tried to secure the area, or at least hoped it was secured. With no proof or any sign of the enemy, it is hard to pinpoint who or what they are. But something Leo said still stuck in my mind. It’s looking for something or someone. Leo had no proof of that, but if Leo says something, it is most likely true since he has a knack for these things. Alejandro was true to his words, he’s pushing Leo to handle things and I know that despite Leo wanting to remain as only the King in the Shadows, he doesn’t really have a choice but to step out there and do what he needs to. But it also means a lot of responsibility for all of us. Leo as the next King, means that the Sangue Pack will be brought i
JAX. “I…” There’s nothing for her to say. Her heart is pounding, her breasts rising and falling. You don’t get to look like the fucking embodiment of sex itself and then act damn innocent. Fuck, this woman grates on every fucking nerve of mine with her attitude, yet at the same time, I want to pin her up against this wall and fuck her hard… Our bodies are pressed against one another’s, yet there’s one way I can think of to get closer and just the thought of burying myself in her pussy makes me throb hard. I skim over those pouty lips of hers that have always been something I’ve noticed… A comment I made to Shane back when he found out she was his mate returns to me, only now I mean it in such a fucking different way… ‘She’s pretty. She’s got nice lips.’ I remember winking at him teasingly… That was an understatement… no wonder he had smiled the way he had… A flare of possessiveness rushes through me, and Hayden and her dancing return to me. Since she’s got here, she’s been t
KAREENA. “Don’t fucking touch her!” He snarls, the anger in his voice shakes me and I look around, my heart thundering as he punches Hayden across the face. I flinch when I hear something break. “Jax!” Ace grabs him. Fuck, this is my fault. ‘Jax, leave it, I was handling…’ I trail off when he turns his eyes on me. “Yeah, I could clearly see how you were handling it,” he says icily. He pulls free from his friends shoving past them and walks out. Why do I feel so bad? I’m about to go after him when Leo takes hold of my wrist. ‘A fucking word first,” he says quietly through the mind link. Great. Just fucking great. I look the way Jax has gone, spotting Jin and Dan going after him and close my eyes before I take a deep breath. Shit. He looks down at Hayden before he bends down and pulls him to his feet. “Alpha I’m sorry, I was just- they aren’t together I didn’t think-” Hayden is cut off. “Regardless of that shit, you should not have pushed the boundaries she was fucking set
KAREENA. Possessive much? “I won’t be the only woman in a dress tonight, Jax. No one is going to be looking at me.” I shake my head as I make my way over to his car. The moment I went into heat is replaying in my mind and I don’t think being in close proximity to him is wise… I’m checking him out, I’m too aware of his scent and the fact he’s watching me is messing with my head. I don’t want to be a burden to anyone tonight. I reach for the passenger door, only for Jax’s arm to brush mine as he beats me to it and opens the door for me instead. I look over my shoulder at him, my heart hammering when his green eyes dip to my lips. I turn away first, during my heat all I could think about was him... I’m falling… I know that… and it terrifies me. “Thanks,” I say, allowing him to open the door, for a moment he places his hand on my waist sending a ripple of pleasure through me. Shit… It’s different, it’s not just the bond. I turn suddenly, totally miscalculating just how close h
KAREENA. He nuzzles his nose into my neck, sending sizzling pleasure through me. Oh, fuck, he smells so good and feels even better…. The bond mixed with the heat is messing with his head and as much as his touch is like a cooling balm to my burning skin, I can’t take advantage of him… We have never been in each other’s presence in my moments of heat, but now… now he’s here and my body craves for him, far more than I expected. I want him to fuck me right here and right now, but I’m terrified. I gasp as another bout of pain rips through me and if he was not holding me, I’d fall to the ground. One of his hands is still tangled in my hair, the other runs up my back before it runs down my back and grabs my ass squeezing it. Pleasure jolts through me and I almost moan loudly. He pulls me closer as if he wants to feel every part of me against him, and I can feel his hard shaft against my stomach. “Fuck,” I moan, running my hand down his stomach. His scent and the heat of his body a
