Rosette directed Roel across from her in front of the crackling fire, inviting him to speak. To make him feel welcome, she had the kitchen bring up a tray laden with snacks. Roel spotted the tray immediately and pulled the entire thing onto his lap. Rosette sat across from him, amused by his behavior.
"Kyle," she called to him mentally, "Roel is eating the snacks, all of them!" She laughed inwardly and showed Kyle the image.
"Do not move," Kyle ordered. "Roel is still more feral than I realized. If he thinks you are trying to take his food, it may inflame his beast."
Rosette felt Kyle come to stand beside her as she heard his voice in her head. He stood casually by her chair and didn't move a muscle. She followed his lead and just sat quietly until all the food was gone.
Roel let out a little burp and placed the tray back on the table. He seemed to notice them suddenly and remember where he was.
"Pardon me, my Alphas, I apologize for my behavior. H
"You've lost me," Rosette answered him, confused. "I have a day planner on my PDA. I take notes at meetings. Why do I need someone to do this?""Something is stressing you, and you're sleepwalking because of it. This might help. Also, it's the perfect job for a wolf that needs constant reassurance about who she is serving," Kyle said, grinning."It's the perfect job for a wolf like that," Rosette agreed grudgingly.She hated the idea of giving up the mechanics of her day to someone else. She wanted to do those things herself. From what Roel had said, it made sense to do this. Emily would be busy all day serving her Alphas and the pack. Hopefully, it would break her of her depression.Rosette rose to go find her phone and then turned. "I'll go call her, and shouldn't you be calling Ethan? By the way, why are you working out with Roel now?""Roel was slated to become one of the pack's warriors when he was shipped off. My father used to talk about his
"You will smell like me all day, mate," Kyle whispered into her ear, his voice a low rumble that sent shivers down her spine. "You won't speak to a wolf who will wonder who you belong to."Rosette felt him plunge into her, a deep, satisfying fullness that sent her head reeling back. It was like heaven. She opened her eyes and saw Emily watching them from the main room. A flicker of embarrassment crossed her mind, but it was quickly overshadowed by a stronger feeling – a sense of pride. If the pack saw her being claimed by her mate, so much the better. Their love was a source of strength, a bond that made them stronger together. She rolled her head to look at Kyle, and the embarrassment faded away. It didn't matter.Kyle was voracious this morning, demanding her full attention. He ground against her, his hands roaming across every inch of her flesh, his touch a testament to his love and desire. He was incredible, and he was hers.She felt a surge of primal
"Madam Alpha, I've never spent much time in human company before," Emily admitted nervously as they drove into town. Her voice was barely a whisper, and Rosette could see the tremor in her hands. It was clear that Emily was out of her element, and Rosette's heart sank. This was a terrible idea. Emily would unmask them all."Please don't call me Madam Alpha," Rosette said gently, "the humans won't understand that." She knew that Emily was trying her best, but she was so used to the pack's rigid hierarchy and the specific titles they used to address each other. Rosette was afraid that her own caution would be seen as arrogance by the humans, and that would only add fuel to the fire.Margaret, who was driving, spoke from the front seat, "You should call her Mrs. Latro if you need to speak to her. Humans will understand who you are when she introduces you as a personal assistant. They will not expect you to talk much, just take notes on what seems important."Rosett
"You're very quiet, Emily," Kyle complimented her, and she grinned. "I take it Ethan decided to give you the job of delivering me tasks I would rather not do?" he asked her, nuzzling into my hair."Yes, Alpha Luther, it looks that way," Emily replied, her voice a soft murmur. Rosette could see the amusement flickering in her eyes, and she couldn't help but smile. Emily was growing more comfortable with her role, and that was a good thing."Kyle, I love you. I need you, but I need to shower after sleeping on the ground," Rosette said, trying vainly to get up. She was starting to feel stiff and uncomfortable, and the scent of pine needles and damp earth wasn't exactly her favorite perfume."So, if I don't let you shower in the morning, you'll stay in our bed?" Kyle asked playfully, rolling her underneath him. He was enjoying this little game, and Rosette found herself laughing despite her discomfort."Pardon the interruption, my Alphas," Emily said, continuing to sit and watch them, "bu
"I got in front of you and charged you in my wolf form," Kyle said, his gaze still fixed on her. "You shifted and started to fight with me. It was very heated. You can be very aggressive, and I was making you angry. Eventually, I forced the wolf to submit completely in front of the pack that was present."Rosette searched her mind, delving into the depths of her consciousness, and found her animal half. She felt different, strange. Her wolf conveyed an immense love and respect for Kyle, but there was also this feeling, like she'd been caught red-handed."She knew what she was doing all along," Rosette mused, a hint of self-reproach in her voice. "I thought we understood each other, that we were on the same page. I had no idea she craved being outside that much.""It's been my fault, love," Kyle sighed, a hint of remorse in his tone. "What she wants is what's best for her. I've had you focused on the pack, not on yourself. The drama with the witches isn't helping either. It's been taki
Rosette relaxed, allowing her wolf to take the reins. For the first time in weeks, she felt a sense of complete comfort, a feeling of belonging that transcended the boundaries of her human anxieties. She was no longer tethered to the concerns of the den, free to roam the wild expanse of her wolfish nature.Initially, Rosette paced herself to Kyle's strides, enjoying the exhilarating rush of the run. But the pace was too slow, too restrained for her wolf's unbridled spirit. She surged forward, bolting ahead of Kyle by a body's length, a joyful burst of primal energy. Kyle, though amused by her enthusiasm, voiced his displeasure."Unless you've somehow deduced where we're going, you should follow me," he called, subtly veering right, his voice a playful challenge.Rosette followed him, in a fashion. What she really did was run circles around him, exploring the forest with the unfettered curiosity of a wolf. She wanted to touch every part of her land, to feel the pulse of the forest bene
"Once a year, your body will prepare itself to become pregnant," Kyle explained, his voice a soothing balm against her skin. "It happens during the winter for us. My understanding of the human anatomy is vague, but I believe you are used to being fertile once a month. Am I correct?""Yes, you are correct, but I can only get pregnant once a year?" Rosette asked, turning to look at him, her eyes filled with a mixture of curiosity and confusion. "You know, it feels like I want to get pregnant now. And why will I not go into etrus until next year?""You can only get pregnant once a year, and it probably won't happen this year. Your body is still too new to this. What was the other question you asked?" he said, fiddling with a strand of her hair, his touch a gentle caress."It wasn't really a question, but I have this all-consuming desire for you. It feels like I want to be pregnant," she told him, her voice laced with a raw honesty."The wolf in you knows this is the right time of year fo
"Rosette, relax, and I will show you," Kyle said, sounding a little exasperated, his voice tinged with a hint of impatience.When the next wave of sensation came, Rosette didn't fight it. She felt Kyle, a profound connection that transcended the boundaries of their individual beings. It was as if she was Kyle, experiencing his world through his senses, feeling his heartbeat thrumming against her back, the warmth of his body a comforting pressure against hers. His need to be inside her was overwhelming, a primal urge that resonated deep within her soul. As he moved to fill her, she heard herself growl, a sound of pure pleasure that echoed through the forest.She wanted to feel him completely, to surrender to his control, but she wasn't sure how to ask for more than he was already giving. Her body was trapped to the ground beneath him, her limbs tangled in a blissful surrender. Kyle's teeth grazed the scruff at the back of her neck, pulling lightly, sending a jolt of pleasure through he
