Thank you for reading! As we approach the end of the month remember to use those gems before they expire *wink wink* XD
WINONA “Fuck!” I gasp, only for Marcel to clamp his hand over my mouth, he has me up against the wall of the tiny bathroom of the airplane we’re on, as he fucks me hard and fast. Pleasure consumes me and I don’t remember how we ended up here. One minute his hand is slipping under my skirt and the next he decides we should have one last round to end our trip. I'm not going to complain, to have Marcel fucking me is heaven itself. Even if I know I’m going to have to hang my head in shame when we leave this bathroom, because the thud against the wall every time he pounds into me or the knocking at the door several times tells me we are going to be in trouble. ‘I’m so close!’ I whimper through the bond, as he rams in and out of me. ‘Do not come until I say Bellissima.’ He growls huskily. I bite my lip as I nod, holding on to him as he sucks on my neck hard. I feel his thrusts becoming harder - knowing he’s near. Oh, goddess! I’m trying not to come, as pleasure wracks my entire body,
Takes place shortly after the epilogues of Alpha Leo and the Heart of Fire & The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin. I would recommend reading The Lycan Princess and the Temptation of Sin before this novella. However, if you don’t, it won’t ruin the story. ~~~ PRECIOUS BOND The Untold Tales of the Alpha and Legacies Series ~~~ KAREENA. Mates. For our kind, your mate is a part of you, not just a partner, but your life source. The very air you need to breathe, and the very touch and caress you need to keep going. Their caress, their voice, their promises; they become your life. But what happens when they are suddenly ripped from you with no warning? What happens when they tell you they’ll be there for that movie and dinner date tonight, only for their lifeless, mutilated body to be brought to you? What happens when your entire world is ripped apart, and you’re left wondering why me? Mates are a beautiful thing, yet equally deadly as they are beautiful. My life was perf
JAX. “Fucking hell,” Leo growls as he tosses the phone he just hung up onto the table and runs his hand through his hair. I cock a brow, exchanging looks with Jin. “You’re going to have to step up soon,” Jin says quietly. The six of us are chilling together. It’s been a week or so since we’ve all been back home. “I didn’t want this, nor did I expect it so soon,” Leo says, sitting forward and resting his elbows on his knees. “No one sane wants this, but when things come your way, you gotta do what you gotta do. Alejandro knows he can rely on you.” Ace says, picking up Leo’s cigarette packet and offering him one. Leo takes one and Dan leans over lighting it for him. “See? You’re already getting all this shit done for you, you’re king material already.” I joke, trying to lighten the mood. Leo’s never been one to shy away from responsibility… there’s more to his reluctance than he’s letting on. “What are you afraid of?” I ask the question the other four want to raise. Li-Sheng loo
JAX. I leave Shane’s room silently; he wasn’t too bad to put to bed at all. He’s a good kid. I glance over my shoulder at him. He’s damn cute, fast asleep and sucking his thumb. I leave the door open a crack, so we’ll hear if he wakes up and make my way downstairs. Kareena’s in the kitchen cleaning up the counters. She’s in denim pants that hug her figure nicely with a white t-shirt knotted at the front, showing off her taut stomach and narrow waist. “Are you just going to stand there and stare?” she asks without turning as she rubs the back of her neck. I smirk as I lean against the door frame. “The view’s pretty good, so why not?” I reply cockily. She turns and rolls her eyes. “Yeah, this is a good view. I’m a mess,” she says, motioning at herself as she shakes her head. I look her over. Does she really think she looks anything but fine? I’m doing it again. “Now that you mention it… you do look a mess.” I joke, but it draws a small smile from her. I’m just not sure from w
KAREENA. I look over at the glowing blue numbers of my digital clock beside the bed. Turning onto my side, the bed creaks a little. The rustle of the bedding is loud in the silence of the night. I sigh softly as I stare at the time. It’s nearly two in the morning… Jax had left over an hour ago, but I’m unable to get him out of my mind. He’s handsome and I can’t deny that he has this sexy vibe going for him. That’s Jax though. He makes sexy look easy; he can pull off formal wear as well as casual, and what really gets to me is how no matter what he does, he looks effortlessly good doing it. Unlike me, I’m a mess the majority of the time. I roll onto my back smacking the duvet in frustration. Why am I even thinking about him? Because his words are getting to me… the way he gets into my personal space so damn casually and doesn’t even seem to realise what he’s doing to me. But he’s just being himself and… even if he’s flirting a little… it doesn’t mean anything… right? I sit up, s
JAX. Pain slams through my left flank, jolting me awake and I’m out of bed in a flash. Fear thumps through me as I realise what’s going on. Kareena. Something’s happened to her! ‘Kareena!’ I call through the link. Fear rushes through me as I run out the door of my bedroom and out of the apartment. ‘I’m fine… I’m sorry, I was just ah…’ she groans as she trails off and worry only fills me more, but at least she’s somewhat ok. ‘What happened?’ I growl. There’s no response and the pain in my side remains. She’s injured. ‘I was…’ she groans. ‘I was moving the desk from the office and’- she cuts off and a sliver of irritation rushes through me. What did she do? I keep running and reach the house in a couple of minutes. I reach down when I realise I haven’t brought my keys, I’m only in my boxer shorts. ‘Kar!’ I’m about to break the door down when it’s opened by Kareena. Her face is flushed yet pale at the same time and the smell of blood makes my eyes snap downward to the bloo
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
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. “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
