I pick up the piece of cloth and my mouth drops open when I see it's a lingerie set. Like a bathing suit, except with see-through fabric all over it.I hate the fact that my cock starts to fill up just thinking about how this would look in contrast to Anya's skin. With her big tits overflowing while she’s looking up at me from the bed, nervously, waiting for me to take this thing off and fuck h—A loud sound jolts me out of my fantasy and I raise my head to the passenger seat window. Anya is there, looking at me with big panicked eyes and red cheeks. "Your mother bought it, not me,” She says from outside with a nervous little giggle. I press the button to put down the window so I can hear this, "It was just a silly gag gift. Give it to me, I'm going to give it back to her.""No," I say and move it further away from her hands when she tries to grab it, "I don't believe you. Why would my mother buy this for you?""Because she wants me to seduce you," she replies, almost climbing into
As soon as I park and get out of my car, I call my mother."Did you or did you not buy a... red outfit for Anya?" I ask, walking slowly towards the front door and smiling at some people waving at me from afar. My mother stays quiet, "Mom?""Uh, yes. I did," she admits in a low voice, making me frown, deeply annoyed, "But listen...""I told you to stay out of my fucking business," I mutter through my teeth, trying to keep my voice down, "What are you doing, meddling in my sex life so much, Mom? I won't tolerate that, ever. That shit is insane, even for you."She groans, embarrassed. Well, she should be embarrassed. What the fuck was she thinking?"I apologize, Jae, you're right. It was insane," she agrees and then continues talking almost in a whisper, "But listen, we want Anya pregnant during the Alpha Competition. We want her pregnant as she’s standing next to you while you're being named Alpha at the presentation. It would leave a good taste in people's mouths, so I'm sorry if I'm g
"Can we get in the pool?" Julie asks as the sun begins to set and we’re just relaxing on the sunbeds. "Sure, let's get in," I reply and we get up from the sunbeds. Since it's just us, they start stripping down to their underwear and jumping in. I do the same until Lucia gasps."What's that? Omg, you kinky slut," she giggles and draws everyone's attention to my ass. Fuck, I'd forgotten about that. I squirm to look at my ass. It doesn't look as angry as it did this morning, it's starting to fade and just looks like reddened skin."Yeah, yeah, grow up," I roll my eyes and put her in a headlock, "Stop insulting your future Luna.""Future Slutna," she blurts out in a choked voice, making the rest of the girls laugh. I laugh too and pull her to the edge of the pool. Once there, I jump in and bring her with me. And, thankfully, the subject of my marked butt is forgotten a few minutes later. We keep playing around in the pool until Julie's mom starts pestering her to come home, so we get ou
The next day I wake up with a hell of a hangover, but I have to force myself to get up and go to work whether I want to or not. My dad hates it when I take days off just because, and I hate to hear him nagging me like I'm still a kid. This time, when I head to the kitchen, Anya isn't here, but she's left breakfast ready for me. Scrambled eggs with toast and avocado, but no fruit. "Remember we have the event at seven today. We need to be ready and on our way by six," I text Anya as I eat. "Okay,” she replies a few seconds later. "Your stuff is still in my car, I'll put it in your room," I let her know."Thanks, Sir,” she replies. Sir? Pff. I just roll my eyes.I guess she's still mad about yesterday. What a baby.I thought she had more fight in her. I was kind of even expecting some retaliation or something. Her trying to piss me off or sneak another punch on me.If she thinks that her being quiet and well behaved now is going to make me stop messing with her, she’s dead wrong. E
{Anya}The journey to the Opricut Pack is awkward and painful as hell. We've been in tense silence for half an hour, and Jae hasn't even turned on the radio, so it really is just silence. And our breathing. My nerves are about to burst."By the way, my dad told me we should be a PDA nightmare tonight," he suddenly says, as if he's hearing my thoughts. 'Fuck you,' I think, just in case he really is."Yeah, your mom told me the same thing," I comment, not looking at him. I'm still angry about the way he treated me yesterday, so I want to avoid any other issues between us because I realized that no matter what I do, I'll always end up losing. Jae is right, he has the upper hand all the time, so what's the point of fighting? I'll just keep my distance. "And are you okay with that?" he asks. This time I look at him. He looks so handsome tonight, in a full black tux and his hair perfectly styled. I hate the fact that such a bad man is so handsome. It's so unfair."Of course. It's alway
I try to shake off everything this man makes me feel and focus on the conversation and the food when they start serving us, but I can't. My mind keeps going back to Jae's warm lips on mine. Or him sucking on my lip. Or him licking my finger like a sex demon... which then makes me think about us in my bed the other day, him sucking his fingers with my wetness on them. Why is he such a slut? That's the real problem here. He's seductive and slutty and that should be illegal. He should not have the power he has over me. He should be... a boring older guy who I struggle to have sex with because he's so focused on his Alpha duties. He should not have me acting like… like a horny teenage boy. That’s how he makes me feel. It doesn't help that Jae keeps touching me one way or another as the alphas around the table talk about important stuff I don't really understand. Alliances and rivalries, shifting loyalties and hidden agendas. I don't care about any of that, all I care about is the man
"Apologize then," I keep going, feeling a little too smug, "Say you're sorry. Say you’re stupid and I AM perfect.""Fuck no," he spits out, looking over his shoulder, but we're definitely hidden in here, "You don't call the shots here, I've told you that.""I think I do right now," I push, feeling greedy. I want to take advantage of the one time I do have some power. He wants these people to respect him and see him as a good man. And I have the opportunity to fuck that up for him, "Apologize, Jae. Say you’re a stupid little man and I’m perfect.”"I would never say those words," he says, his face hard and angry, "Let's go back outside before you really fucking piss me off.""No. Apologize right now or I'll make a scene," I threaten, brave as a blind dog being chased by a lion. Stupid and hopeless. And yet, I can't stop myself, "I swear I'll do it. I told you I will always defend myself.""Against what? What the fuck did I do today? I'm being a good husband," he says, as if he actually,
I have to force myself to smile and touch Jae for over twenty minutes when I really just want to scream and hide my head on the floor like a scared ostrich. And just stay there. Every time Jae opens his mouth, he makes me hate him even more. Fuck him. Fuuuuck him. And fuck my mom for being so stupid. Does she even know what power of attorney is? Probably not. Or she probably didn't care, she was just thinking about the money."Are you okay, Anya?" someone asks me all of a sudden. I look at the guy, completely confused. I've been zoning out so much, I don't even remember his name. "Yeah, all good," I give him a fake smile, and I guess it's obvious because the mood gets a little awkward, but luckily he changes the subject and starts talking about boring stuff with Jae again. Once the random guy leaves, Jae turns me until I'm face to face with him and wraps an arm around my waist to pull me into his body. He grabs my head with his other hand and brings his lips to my ear. I'm sure we
{ Epílogue }Six Years Later The day I hate the most is finally over. The third Alpha Challenge is done and, unsurprisingly, my man won. He fought for almost two hours against five very brave but very dumb competitors. He's once again, the Alpha of Ellington. And now we're back home, all safe and sound, so I can finally breathe. I guess you could say I am a little traumatized about what happened at the Challenge when Jae almost dies and lost his memory. Things are so, so different now."My daddy is the strongest," Iseul says, looking up at Jae with sparkling eyes because she loves her dad. She looks at him like he's the fucking sun."And you're the sweetest daughter alive," he says, finally picking her up even though I know he must be tired as hell. He kisses her chubby cheeks over and over, making her laugh in pure joy. Jae walks a few steps until he can sit his ass on the couch and he groans, "Where's your brother, huh?”"Still outside," Iseul says. And that's true, Tate never
I remember being told Anya sent me a 'good luck' little pastry and I thought, ‘damn she knows I don't like sweet treats, but I'll eat it anyway because I don't want her to get mad at me for not doing it’.Next thing I know, I can't even move my body correctly and my mind is all slow and slurry. I couldn't even move my mouth enough to fucking talk. "What happened after I went down?" I ask my father when I'm back in their house after being discharged. My memories are back into place, so now we're allowed to talk normally. My dad growls in anger."Anya ran to you," he starts, making me lift my eyebrows in complete shock, "She ran and shifted to attack Klein in wolf form, she got him real good actually. His arm got the worst of it, but she managed to bite his head, too. The council was going to let the Challenge continue, but Anya and Rogan figured out you ate that pastry thing, which you never fucking do. Also, Anya never sent anything. The fact that they figured it out so early was the
I shake my head. I don't know much about myself, but I do know I wouldn't do something like that."No," I say, the girl frowns and looks at me, then nods, "Nu-uh.""Yes.""No," I repeat, "There is no way.""Jae, I'm the only one in this room that remembers anything," she spits out at me, "I remember what happened, you don't.""But I'm me," I say and I point a finger to my head, "And I don't think I would do that.""You did," she says, clasping her hands into fists, "And I want you to say you’re sorry again.""Why? I don't even remember. I think you're lying to get my attention and get me horny for you again," I joke, making her eyes get red, so I relent. I take a deep breath, "I'm just joking.""I know you are fucking joking because I know you and your stupid jokes," she yells, "I know you! I remember everything. And you don't."She starts full blown crying then, so I force myself to take this seriously. And consider the fact that I... hurt her on purpose? For what reason? The only wa
{ Jae }It's been almost twenty four hours since I woke up after my fight and fortunately, some things are starting to make more sense, but I'm still struggling to remember 80% of things. I don't even remember my best friend, but it helps that he's here, forcing me to remember."Rogan," I close my eyes with stress, "I believe you, dude. I just don't remember.""Well, shut up and let me continue," he spits with a furrowed brow and opens his mouth as if he really wants to keep telling me our entire friendship story, from the very very beginning, when we were ten years old. This bastard really has a good memory, "We've only had one fight, back when we were in sophomore year, it was over a girl. I didn't actually like her that much but I..."The door opens slowly and I sigh in relief because someone is finally saving me from this storyteller. A head peeks in and I recognize her as the crying girl from yesterday, the one with long red hair."Anya," Rogan says, and he suddenly tenses up, lo
{ Anya }I leave Jae's room even though Vivian is telling me it's not necessary. I close the door behind me and cover my mouth to control my sobs, but I can't.No. No. No.I refuse to believe this is really happening to me. Jae has been in intensive care for two days while the swelling in his brain goes down from the fracture that idiot Klein gave him. I've been here with him, holding his hand and wishing with all my might that he'll be okay.I know he's going to be okay now. And I also know, logically, that it's completely normal to have trouble stringing thoughts together after such trauma. I know Jae could be back to normal in a few hours or a few days, once he gets better.But logic doesn't fix how I feel right this second. Jae looked at me and ignored me like I was nobody, then implied he didn't remember me. And then he talked to me that way... like he used to when I first met him.I can't do it again, I can't deal with Jae treating me like crap again. I won't, I refuse. I've l
"What's going on?!" I grumble once we're backstage, completely disoriented. When I see Jae being brought in on a damn portable stretcher, I run towards him."Luna Anya, please stay away," a paramedic tells me, holding me back. I'm about to tell him I'm a doctor and I have a right to see what the hell is happening with my mate, but Rogan grabs me from behind and pulls me away."This isn't normal. Jae didn't do anything to fight, that’s not him!" I say, but Rogan keeps restraining me and trying to quiet me down, "You can't let this happen, Ro. Something was wrong with him.”"Anya, Anya, please," Ro continues, "I know it's not normal, but you need to calm down first. I can't take care of you and find answers at the same time."That makes me calm down because he's right. I can't be another problem right now, I have to help."Okay, okay... what do you know?""Nothing. I was here with him when he arrived, while he was getting ready and before the fight began. Everything was perfectly normal
Before I realize it, the day finally arrives. The day of the Alpha Challenge.Jae has been more focused than ever on his training, so we haven’t had any more time to explore our relationship, but I’m not worried because I know it’s necessary and important… maybe not as much as our bond, but close. Because this is not just about his position and his future. It’s the future of our family, a future where the pack will bear our name.When I arrive with Tate and my aunt and uncle at the arena, Jae’s family is already in the family booth, so I greet everyone and then I have to go through the worst anxiety ever again, just like five years ago, except this time it’s even worse because Klein is not just another True Alpha who came to Ellington to try to fight Jae. Now it’s personal.Klein is my ex-boyfriend and he wants revenge for being ‘humiliated’ at the last Alpha Challenge. I don’t know why, but I have a bad feeling about this. Or maybe it’s just worry because this time what I feel for J
"And because you're mine to use whenever I feel like it,” I continue, sucking on his bottom lip and making him let out a low growl from his chest. "We can't do this here," he whines, trying to take a step back, but I don't care. I follow him, "Baby, I mean it. I can't fuck you here with my parents and my son downstairs.""Why not?" I ask, running a hand down his chest until I reach his hard dick. I grab it through his pants tightly and pull, making him moan, "I know you want it.""Of course I fucking want it," he grunts, thrusting his hips against my hand for just a second before ripping my grip off his erection and flipping me over until my back is to him. Jae takes my hands and in just a second crosses them across my chest until he has me completely unable to move...at least my upper body, "Damn it, Anya. You don’t change. Don't you ever think with something other than your clit? We can't do this here. You can wait until we get home.""I can't," I moan, wiggling my ass against him,
When we all arrive at Vivian and Riku Kyung’s house together, I can see the surprise on both of their faces. I don’t think Jae told them I would be joining them for Sunday brunch.“Anya, darling, hi!” Vivian exclaims, coming over to give me a tight hug, which I return. I haven’t seen them since the news about our bond started circulating in the pack, so I’m not surprised when she holds onto me for longer than would seem normal, “I heard the news. About your bond… whatever decision you make regarding that, I want you to know that I am SO grateful to the Moon Goddess for choosing you as my son’s mate. You are such a wonderful girl, and I will never stop considering you part of my family.”I blink several times when my eyes start to sting, returning her hug with equal intensity.“Thank you for your words. I consider you part of my family too,” I let her know. When I let her go, Riku takes me into his arms.“There is no woman more perfect for my son. I hope he knows how to treat you as yo
