Rose’s POV

The first thing that hits me is the smell. I don’t think I’ll ever find the words to describe it, but I can taste it in the back of my throat every time I breathe in. It’s cold and silent except for my panicked breaths and my pulse thundering in my ears .

The last thing I remember is running down the beach, looking back at Phoenix and seeing wolves attacking, then a gunshot. Now, here I am, blindfolded and tied to a chair in a place that smells like a teenage boy’s gym bag.

“You won’t get away with this.” I shout, sounding braver than I feel. I don’t even know why I said it. It’s the first thing that came to mind. Maybe I’ve seen one too many movies for my own good.

Footsteps behind me have me turning my head as if I would be able to see who is there. They don’t say anything, but the smell of cigarettes adds to the stench of the place.

“What do you want with me? I have no money, I’m not worth anything.” It’s a sad fact, but a fact all the same. Why would anyone kidnap me

    Phoenix’ POV We have searched the entire pier, under it, the arcades, every coffee shop, nook and cranny, twice. Rose is nowhere to be found. Wherever she is, she is barely dressed and probably freezing and confused. Why did I have to drag her out of bed? I can’t think clearly around her, and it shows. She would have been safer locked in the house, not running down the beach half naked and scared. I could have kept them out. My brothers were close by. I should have known they would be there in moments to have my back, they always are, it’s what we do.“Let’s go back to the house and check again, we might have missed her,” Jackson suggests, most likely aware of all the attention I was drawing to us with my raised voice and the rumble emanating from my chest. My other brothers, Jackson and Braydon, joined the search after we couldn’t find her where I told her to wait, and they felt my panic over our link.“Where the fuck is she? I told her, hide under the pier. I couldn’t have been any

    Rose’s POV “Smile sweetheart. You don’t want them to think you aren’t having fun, do you?” The boss man’s voice sounds so familiar. Having fun, what the hell is he talking about? It takes a second to remember he sent someone to get a camera, and my blood runs cold at the thought of him taking photos of me like this.“Here, Vin, you take the picture.” I listen, but don’t try to move. In my head I’ve gone from thoughts of fighting and trying to get away, to giving up and accepting my fate, to praying to a God I have never believed in that I make it out of here alive. That’s where I know his voice from. My mind flits to granny Gwynn, and I wonder if I’ll be seeing her again sooner than I thought. He was at her funeral. Mr Ant... something. I have never met him before today but I’m sure it’s him. Something about the way he said my name earlier was familiar, the way he rolled the R, just like the man at the funeral.Even through my blindfold I’m aware of a camera flash lighting up the ro

    Phoenix’ POV The red neon sign for Angelo’s Gym comes into view, and my heart, which has been slamming away since I realised she was gone, slows down ever so slightly. She is in there. I’ll have her in my arms in minutes. Now is the time to slow down, think shit through and don’t fuck it up.“So, we will go in first and take down Antonellia and his men. You get Rose and get out. Do you hear me Phoenix. You can make him pay later, just get her out of there.” Jackson holds my head in both of his hands and gives it a shake. We have been over the rather loose plan a few times. I know my brothers can deal with whatever we are walking into, and all I have to do is get Rose out of there quickly and safely.“Yes, I hear you. Get her out.” I know why he is treating me like a wet behind the ears pup. When it comes to Rose, I seem to forget my training and act on instinct, which isn’t a good thing considering I’m a trained killer and my wolf seems to be teetering on the edge of feral.Our phone

    Rose’s POV Sitting in his lap is nice. I’ve dreamed about being this close to him for the last three years. The experience is ruined when every bump in the road jolts my body and sends stabbing pains up through me from my very sore and swollen private area.When he asked where I hurt, I wanted the ground to open up and swallow me. As if being found tied up and naked wasn’t bad enough, I wasn’t about to tell him what that monster did to me. I’m not sure I could even form the words. It all feels so unreal, like maybe it didn’t really happen and I might wake up at any minute.I think he knows though. The look on his face and the anger I can feel rolling off him in waves tells me he at least has some idea. I should tell him what happened in case he is imagining the worst, thinking that I was raped. I don’t want him to see me like that, imagining me being damaged or soiled or broken beyond repair. Phoenix has always been my hero, but the thought of him seeing me as a victim makes my heart

    Phoenix’ POV Well, here she is, at our place just like the guys wanted, especially Ranger. I can’t help feeling like maybe I’ve bitten off more than I can chew. After seeing that video, there is no way I or my wolf could bear the thought of letting her out of our sight, so bringing her home made perfect sense. Shit, I’m struggling to even think of putting her down. She feels so damn right, curled up in my arms, all soft and warm.We get to the bunker about ten minutes after the others. They ran ahead to get the lights on and fire going and check to make sure there hadn’t been any activity in the vicinity whilst we had been gone. Jackson has made up the guest room for her, fool that he is, really thinks I’m leaving her after what she has just been through. The only place she will sleep is my bed. I don’t care if I spend every night of the rest of my life sleeping in a chair. She belongs in my bed, nowhere else.You wouldn’t know our bunker is here unless you were really looking for it

    Phoenix’ POV “I’m here, if you want to talk... about tonight... about anything.” I broach the subject delicately. I saw her embarrassment earlier, and even now, I feel her face heat against my chest, but the kind of trauma she has just endured shouldn’t be swept under the rug and left to fester.“He didn’t ra..” she swallows, “he didn’t rape me.” She forces the words out, her face mashed against my chest like she can’t bear to look at me.“Look at me, Rose.” I wait for her to comply. It takes her a moment, and I feel her take a deep breath before she lifts her head, and her swollen, tear streaked face looks up at me.“You have nothing to be ashamed of. What happened, whatever happened, is on him, not you. He has absolutely no right to be in your head, and you need to know you are stronger than him. You are stronger than anyone I know.” I try not to let on that I know exactly what happened. I saw the depraved act with my own eyes, and that shit will be burned into my memory for as lo

    Rose’s POV I wake up in a bed that isn’t mine, and panic starts to creep in until I remember being carried through the forest by Phoenix. I recall him tucking me in, kissing my forehead and sweeping my hair off my face. I thought it was another one of my dreams, but when his fingers brushed my cheek, my body fizzed with something, not excitement but something like it. That feeling doesn’t happen in dreams. When I go to sit up, throbbing pain radiates between my legs, and I lay back down carefully. For just a second, I forgot all about last night. My giddiness about Phoenix and the way he has been with me had been on my mind even in my sleep.“Aaaah, jesus.” My hand goes straight between my legs, and the memories of everything that happened comes crashing back. My labia are sore and swollen, and everything down there feels bruised and tender.A rustling noise at the end of the bed startles me, and I stop feeling around to assess the damage and lay perfectly still. I’ve heard of being

    Phoenix’ POV I beat a hasty retreat just as my cock comes to full mast. This woman was sent to torture me, I’m sure of it. Between her and my wolf I am definitely destined for the loony bin.Seeing her in my bed, and when she sat up and the duvet fell around her waist, fuck, I felt like an absolute dick. All I could think about was taking her nipples into my mouth and feeling them harden against my tongue. I bet she is responsive as fuck. I don’t know how I know, I just do. I feel like I know everything about her, and what little I may not know, I can’t wait to learn.I know she has been through some shit in recent days, and I don’t doubt it will take her time to process that and learn how to live with having such a crappy thing in her history. But I am only a man, and the way I want her is so deeply ingrained, I couldn’t have stopped my body reacting the way it did if my life depended on it.I have never been with a woman, never felt the need strongly enough to take that risk, none

    Rose’s POVThe heat of the water helps, and by the time I have finished the tea Braydon brewed for me, I’m feeling much better. Phoenix is acting more reasonably too, and isn’t hovering like I’m about to take my dying breath. It’s sweet really, if you can overlook the sudden onset neurosis. He and his wolf have watched me like a hawk for the last twenty minutes or so, leaving only to clean up the mess I made of the floor and bed. Watching him makes me feel both guilty and giddy. His concern for me, and the lack of disgust I had expected for some unknown reason, pulls at something in my chest. Surely, he is an anomaly. All men aren’t like this, are they?I brace my hands on the sides of the tub and get ready to leave the soothing effect of the water, and Phoenix jumps off the closed toilet lid, which he has also cleaned, and is beside me in seconds, reaching into the bath to lift me out.“I told you, I’m feeling much better now. You don’t need to lift me and carry me everywhere.” I tel

    Phoenix’ POVSo now it’s not only my wolf being a dick. Having access to Rose’s thoughts and feelings is as much a curse as it is a blessing.I realise this is going to sound mad, and believe me, I feel mad for even thinking it for a millisecond, but I had hoped my beast had been wrong about it being too soon. Don’t ask, I still don’t know what the hell is wrong with me. Pups, now, when we aren’t safe, far from it. That could be a nightmare. But I’m not feeling reasonable right now. I’m not capable of reason where Rose is involved.And what the hell is this? That much blood can’t be normal. And this bullshit lasts how long? Never, and I mean never, did I realise it was this bad. A bit of red on the tissue when they go to the loo, that’s what I imagined. Not enough to soak the front of my shirt in a matter of minutes.“It only looks like a lot, and I had been laying down.” She says out loud as if that is some kind of reasonable explanation. I forgot the link goes both ways now. This is

    Rose’s POV I’m woken up by the sound of a loud, unfamiliar laugh and the smell of garlic wafting up from downstairs. My tummy gurgles at the thought of food, and I force myself to wake up, even though I could probably sleep for at least two days. 'It's normal to feel like that after your first shift, and our mate was insatiable last night. It's no wonder your body needs the rest.' Willow purrs, remembering the details in a series of very graphic images. Jesus, everything hurts. The backs of my thighs, and the fronts. When I stretch my legs, my calves protest, and when I close them, my pussy has it’s own pulse. Throwing back the covers, I welcome the cool air on my warm skin. I look down and am shocked to see deep red and purple bruises all over my ribs, spreading out over my breasts. What the hell has he done to me? I felt the nips and sucks, but my body was so wrung out I obviously didn’t register exactly what he was doing.As if waking up to a literal map of everywhere his mouth

    Phoenix’ POV It’s almost dawn by the time I carry Rose up to our room. I’ll be surprised if she wakes before noon.“No. Tired.” She mumbles groggily and swats at my hand as I lay a warm wash cloth between her legs.“It’ll help with the swelling baby.” I tell her, but she has already dozed back off.I feel like a world class asshole. I don’t know what came over me, it was like I was possessed by a horny animal. My cock feels heavy, swollen and over used, so I can’t even begin to imagine how her pussy must be feeling, and my forearm is fucked with what I assume is an RSI from having my fingers thrusting inside her for what felt like hours.‘Ha.’ My beast barks. ‘We are a horny animal, but your efforts won’t take root yet. It’s too soon.’ ‘What are you talking about?’ this fucker is back to his talking in riddles bullshit. After everything he told me earlier, about Rose being the ultimate prize for the agency, my head is fucked. Her bloodlines being from the strongest wolf pack and old

    Rose’s POVWillow watches through my eyes as I try not to show how pissed I am that I was a hairs breath away from coming when he suddenly stopped. Not only did he stop, he did what he always does, and got me to tell him in graphic detail what I want.I’m starting to think he gets off on control. No, that’s a lie. I know he gets off on control. He needs it. When he tells me how to lay, even in the most exposed and embarrassing positions, I don’t mind. When he whispers every detail of what he wants to do, my pussy loves that. When he makes me beg to be allowed to come, it’s so, so worth it. But saying those words myself, I don’t know, it just doesn’t feel like me.It feels naughty, dirty even, and the words are foreign on my tongue, but after I say them... he makes me forget about all the awkwardness. He has never made me ask for anything I don’t want. Maybe that’s what I find it so unnerving. He knows what I want better than I do. He can read me on a level I didn’t know was possible.

    Phoenix’ POVI can’t get deep enough like this. I can’t... I need... fuck. I’ll never be able to get enough of her. No matter how much she gives me, I always need more. “Hold on baby.” I give her all of about two seconds warning before I roll her onto her back, and I follow, my cock still inside her, my body leaning over hers, my arms either side of her head, her legs wrapped around my waist.This is better, but still not enough. I need more. More connection, more.... I don’t fucking know.The scent of her arousal drives my wolf crazy, but he stays in the background, knowing how much I need this time with her. After everything has just told me, I don’t think I’ll ever be able to keep her close enough or let her out of my sight.“I need to taste you, beautiful.” I pull out as quickly as I slid in, and kneel between her legs, looking down at her luscious body. She still blushes when I tell her what I want, or how pretty she is. She definitely loves it when I praise her, and there is so

    Rose’s POVOf all the things I could be feeling right now, numb didn’t even make top ten on the list. I have a wolf, my wolf. I am a werewolf and have been all my life. ‘Gwynn hid me for your own safety Rose. She did the same for your father, and your grand father before him. She is the one who hid most of Sacred Moon pack, and is the only reason the Alpha and Beta bloodlines have been preserved for so long.’ The voice inside my head is loud and clear, nothing like the echo it was.‘Are you my wolf or am I going crazy?’ it’s a serious question even though I laugh as I ask it.‘Yes Rose, I am your wolf. My name is Willow. I have been waiting ever such a long time to meet you. I wish I could have been there for you when Gwynn returned to her goddess, and when that monster had you. I would have given anything to be the one to tell you it’s all real, but I could only watch until you were safe.’ Willow’s voice is calm and soothing. She is far more understanding than I would be if I had b

    Phoenix’ POVFinally, my beast is ready to spill. We have waited, for what feels like forever, for one of our wolves to talk. Not a single man in this room ever expected it would be my beast to break their vow of not sharing. Out of the five, he is the one who has been most tight lipped. Until Rose came along, that is.Once my wolf started, they all joined in, and the mind link became absolute bedlam in a matter of minutes. For once, I was the calm one. I actually zoned out and just watched Rose, it was the strangest sensation, like she eclipsed all the drama happening over the mind link. She looked beautiful in the firelight, her delicate fingers turning the tattered yellow pages of Gwynn’s book, her bare legs bent at the knee, her feet waving in the air. I could see some of the pictures from my perch on the edge of the sofa and was thinking about moving onto the pile of cushions with her when my wolf grabbed my attention.‘Antonellia and his men were the first. Some of them were ro

  • Alpha Team - The First To Fall   chapter fifty six

    Rose’s POVPhoenix was right, that nap was very needed, and I wake up refreshed but ravenous. Dinner was delicious, I never realised these guys were such amazing cooks, but I suppose they had to learn, especially with the way the twins seem to plough through food. Heaven knows where they put it all, there isn’t a spare inch of fat between them, just muscles on muscles.Jackson seems to be in charge in the kitchen, and when Phoenix and I walked into the circular living space, he was pulling two giant lasagnes out of the beautiful black range. This kitchen, actually the entire space, is definitely not what I expected. The dark academia, gothic look, makes the place feel old and maybe a little creepy, but also cosy. The candles, floor to ceiling bookcases and abundance of blankets and cushions on the sofas look so inviting and I can’t wait to curl up in front of the open fire with a book. Hopefully there will be something I like amongst the hundreds of titles that line the walls. It ma
