How did Duke manage to do this to me? Despite my resolve not to ever visit my father during my stay here, I soon found myself freshly showered, in clean clothes and stood outside my dad's room.
I took a deep breath to steady my breathing, feeling the lightheadedness and sweaty palms that indicated the beginning of a panic and attack and turned my frantic eyes in Duke's direction
"I don't know if I can do this - I know we promised not to talk about it, I know, but I can't walk in there, not after everything that happened!" My arms were flailing wildly as I spoke, my words coming out in a jumbled mess.
Duke grabbed my hands and placed them on his chest, allowing me to feel his strong, steady heartbeat beneath his clothes. "Breath, Grace. I'm right here. I promise you, I'm not going anywhere. We'll do this together."
I closed my eyes and took a moment, timing my breathing based on his, following the rise and fall of his chest. My head was ready to explode, m
Ugh. Monday's. Everyone hates Monday's. It's full of nothing but disappointment."Like my life since this summer," I thought to myself.This summer I moved in with my uncle and aunt in Florida when my parents got in a car crash and were killed. Of course, by a drunk driver.I don't like it here, but maybe that's just cause of my uncle and aunt. They don't care about me at all. And I'm not just exaggerating... they really don't care. They only took me in cause they were told to, and they were also told to enroll me in school for my senior year.They only feed me and provide the essentials. They never talk to me unless they have to and if I ask to go out of the house their only reply is, " Be back before midnight or we'll beat you. "They aren't abusive though, they have never laid a finger on me before. They always just leave me be. I don't think they'll actually beat me... right?On to the topic about school. My first day of high school is t
I looked into his eyes, they were gray with blue specks in it. I could stare into those eyes all day... wait what?" Oh look who's finally shown up as well! Mr. Knight take your seat please. "He acted like he didn't hear her and kept staring at me. I didn't mind, I stared back at his eyes. They held a look of.. love? How?" Sean! Snap out of it! " Someone from the class whispered. Probably one his friends.He looked away from me to only growl.. wait growl? Did he really just.." Since you have just arrived to the class you can go ahead and sit next to Mr. Knight in the back. " the teacher points to where he sits and gestures me to sit down.Sean took a glance back at me and sat in his seat in the back." Miss Meadows, I'm Mrs. Fields. I'm sorry for the interruption. Now class take out your textbooks and turn to page 121. "" Nice to meet you Mrs. Fields. " I mumble as I walk away and to my seat in the back next to Sean.As I was
When I got home I started on the math homework. There's supposed to be a test on Wednesday of what they've been learning, but since I just got here, the teacher said I didn't have to take it. I still want to, I don't want to sit there being bored the entire block with nothing to do. What they've been learning so far is pretty easy so I'm sure I'll ace it.When I do homework, read, or study, I like to listen to music. Pop music is my favorite, though I do like some rock music and a few country songs.I love the bands Fall Out Boy, Twenty One Pilots, Panic! At the Disco, and Maroon 5. I'm looking into listening to My Chemical Romance.Yes I am a band geek, don't judge me.I mostly just listen to bands then actual singers. My friends back in Ohio used to say I was a little emo because I'd listen to that kind of music but I don't care.Right now I'm jamming to the song " Wilson ( Expensive Mistakes ) " by Fall Out Boy. FOB just came out with a new album and
Sean's POV:Rogues. Lowlifes who want to ruin my pack and it's name. I wasn't named Alpha in my pack for no reason, I earned it. My father died of a rogue attack when I was 14, so I took the position as Alpha as soon as I turned 18.Before I turned 18, my mom had to fill the Alpha position and the Luna's too. Being an Alpha isn't just ordering people around, it's making sure the packs safe and... also paperwork and a lot of meetings.Rogues have been coming into my territory more and more lately but I'll handle it. I had to interrogate a rogue because I wanted to get to the bottom of why the rogue attacks have been increasing, but he didn't say anything, only " Enjoy your loved ones while they're here. "Let's just say I killed him. He was probably talking about my dad. Stupid fucking useless piece of-..." Sean! " My mom yelled looking at me." Are you okay? You have blood on you... "" I'm fine Mom, I gotta get ready for school. ""
It's been a month since I had started school and so far so good. I have all A's for my grades except for my grade in Honors English, I have a B+. And also I haven't spoken a word to Sean.He tried to talk to me my first week a lot and now it's just like he's giving me space. Which I'm thankful for, I don't even know him. He might just want me for my looks... no wonder he looked at me that way in front of the class on my first day. That's how this all started.I've been ignoring the fact that every time he brushes past me on accident or our arms touch when we are working I feel little sparks.It's all in my head. I'm trying to convince myself of that but it's like he feels it too. He smiles at me when he thinks I'm not looking, it's just all too strange for me. Does he have a crush on me? Maybe I should at least be friends with the dude. I feel bad.As for Michael and Makayla we have became really close. Makayla and me more so, we text everyday just like me an
The sound of the waterfall in front of me was really peaceful. I ran my hand through the water as I heard Sean come and sit down beside me on the rock." Why are you doing this? " I found myself asking." Doing what? " he said with a puzzled look" This... " I motioned towards the waterfall and me "... you took me here. It must be a special place, and we aren't even friends. What made you want to be my friend? "He sighs, " Ever since I saw you I've wanted to be your friend, you just seem like a kind person and Michael talks about you like your an amazing person. "" You know Michael? "" Yeah, hes my bet-best friend. We have known eachother for a long time. " I caught the little slip up but I didn't question it." Ohh, yeah Michaels something alright. " I rolled my eyes playfully.I got up and and walked to the waterfall. It was so beautiful I went up to where all the water was rushing down, I poked my finger through the water and fel
M.....Please let go. " I breathed out. My arm still hurts from this morning when my uncle bruised my arm and he's making it hurt worse.He saw the bruises on my wrists and a hint of confusion tinted his eyes. He pulled my sleeve up and found the bruises. He smirked, " Got in some trouble earlier didn't you? "" That's none of your business. " I snapped at him, it's really none of his business. If he wanted to have a chat he could let me go, wait scratch that. If he let me go I'd run.I hadn't had much of a chance to look at his eyes much but they're turning a reddish color.. I didn't think eyes could turn red. My eyes turn gray when I'm sad and have hints of green when I'm excited or really happy." I see-.. " he starts saying something but I cut him off,
I watched intensely as the prince of the rogues and Sean fought. I hope that Sean wins, I do not want to go with a stranger somewhere I don't even know. Maybe I should run off... well that's a bad idea. I don't want to leave Sean and they're werewolves they'll find me eventually.44They both had shifted into their wolves and are constantly nipping and clawing at eachother. It's all moving so fast I can barley tell what's going on.6Sean tries to go for his neck for a quick twist of the neck but is too late as the prince already made plans to bite his leg. Sean dodges it at the last second and the prince bites the air, catching him off guard. The prince falls to the ground in a thump and Sean hold his neck in his mouth.2" Hey, Jess. " I heard a whisper behind me. I look behind me and see Michael in a bush calling me over to him. I rush over and crouch down next to him.7" Sean mind linked me to come and get you before things got out of hand but I ran a li

Where did you learn to dance like that?" he breathed, his voice coming across thick with lust. I swallowed hard, my eyes stuck in a rhythm of drifting down to the huge bulge in his trousers and back to his face with evident nerves. This is what I had been aiming for, wasn't it? I had wanted to toy with the alpha.I just had no idea he would be so... so... I don't even know. I was overwhelmed, seeing the evidence of his arousal, the open, wild want in his eyes as he pinned me to the spot with his piercing gaze. I swallowed again, my tongue darting out to wet my lips that had suddenly grown dry. Duke followed my actions causing a dart of desire to hit me, my pussy clenching as the first waves of passion began to take over me."Grace?" he repeated, standing in front of me now, reaching out to grab a lock of my hair, twisting it around his fingers."I... the other warriors..." I paused again, once more wetting my lips. I couldn't believe that was my voice, it sounde
Grace,” Stephen murmured. If I had thought his tone was cold, it was nothing compared to the shimmering veins of ice in his eyes, rooting me to the spot as my childhood nerves came flooding backI should have known he would still be here. It wasn't uncommon for ALphas to step down from their role, allowing their sons to ascend earlier than planned in order to keep the strongest wolves at the top - this would serve as a warning to other packs. We were lead by the strongest, but if by some stretch of the imagination Duke was to be defeated, Stephen was still here, ready to take his place if Duke did not have sons old enough. In the meantime, Stephen would act as a rule enforcer, making sure the pack lived in relative peaceHa. As if Stephen had ever wanted peace. He wanted to rule with an iron fist. I felt my anger resurface once again and so I straightened my spine with pride. I was better than him, he would not get the satisfaction of seeing me crumble&ld
There she was, curled up in a tiny ball of golden fluff, sleeping without a care in the world. My hand reached out to touch her but stopped short, hovering over her shiny fur.She was magnificent. I knew Grace had struggled growing up not knowing her wolf, feeling rejected but just this small look at her told me she was worth the wait.The power radiated off her, emitting a warning of death and destruction to all those who crossed her.She whinnied softly in her sleep and I placed my hand under her snout, letting her catch on to my scent to assure her I was still around and watched with amazement as she settled back to sleep immediately.She was a wolf that would do any Alpha proud. She may be small but she was solid muscle. Just like Grace had become. Why was she so determined to hide her from me? Was she scared of my rejection? Or worse, did her wolf now hate me? Had I ruined our chances of bonding?Her wolf had only appeared once mine was around
Alone in this house, I had the chance to reflect. I had been a prized bitch to Duke. He hadn’t deserved what I had screamed at him and I hadn’t done myself any favours.I looked at the sofa and saw the telltale signs that it had been used as a bed - the way the cushions had been propped up against the arm, the dint in the middle from the body that was too large to comfortably fit on there. It seemed Duke wasn’t able to face the upstairs bedrooms where so much had happened either.It left me with no choice. I couldn’t stay in my room, not after what came to mind earlier so it left me with one other choice. I would stay in the guest room where it had all began, where the memories were happier, if not just as painful.As soon as I climbed into the soft bed, the memories washed over me, as I knew they would. This time I welcomed them, my own personal punishment. A reminder to myself of why this would never have worked.****************
I sensed the change in Grace the minute I saw her enter the kitchen. Gone was the playful look in her eye that had been so full of lust and wonder at what we had just done and what remained was so cold and full of ice that it was almost like a slap in the face. She had shut down on me, closed the shutters so that I couldn't enter any further.I don't know why, but it pissed me off. I had thought we had been making progress, I had felt the way her wolf had been reaching out to mine the entire time and yet she had slammed the door shut for any further progress.A feeling of shame and guilt washed over me as soon as I thought that. I was being unfair. I had also felt the way she had reacted to me. The sheer amazement and innocence that revealed far more than any of her words could have done. It didn't take a genius to work out that she hadn't been touched like that before. I didn't know whether or not she was a virgin or just had a string of bad lovers but something told
Duke grabbed hold of my ass, pulling me tight against him, letting me know exactly what effect I had on him and that this time, unlike all those years ago, he wasn’t going to hold back. As he began to walk backwards, I wrapped my arms around his neck, caught up in the moment, unable to make sense of what was happening. All I knew was that I didn't want this to stop. After all this time, I needed more. So much more"What are you waiting for?" I whispered against his lips, running my tongue along them and placing kisses along his jaw, loving the way his stubble felt so rough under my mouth.He backed me up some more until I felt the cool wall against my back. "You should know better than to play with the big, bad wolf, Grace" he teased, his hands slipping under my top, softly stroking against my stomach as they made their way further up my body.My head dropped back, thrusting my chest forward in delight, desperate to feel his hands on me"You don't s
I had to pull over as the memories overwhelmed me. It was all I could do to catch my breath, remembering all the techniques I had learned over the years to slow down my breathing and concentrate on letting go of the anger and resentment.It wasn’t easy though. All I could think about was the way that I had been betrayed, the way that I had felt when Duke had looked at me with such disgust, anger and worst of all, disappointment.I had pinned so many of my hopes on him, had seen him as a lifeline, a way out of a shitty household that had wished nothing but pain and misery on me and in my darkest hour, Duke had abandoned me, leaving me as a shell of my former myself.I had left that night, not thinking about what I was throwing into a suitcase, I just grabbed the things that were closest and I walked out. No one tried to stop me. Noone came looking for me. I think that’s what hurt the most.I had genuinely thought that when the anger died down a
I stood in front of the mirror, staring at my body that was still tingling from being so close to Duke and trying to see myself through his eyes, to see what it was he saw me. Goddess knew I couldn't see a thing about myself that would appeal to any male, let alone one who was as chiselled and hard as Duke.I suppose my skin was quite creamy. I ran the back of my fingers along my ribcage and over to the top of my lace panties. It felt quite soft. Is this what Duke felt when I pressed myself against him?I brought my hands up and cupped my tits, feeling an unfamiliar but altogether appealing sensation shoot through me. My hands could barely hold them, they were definitely more than enough for Duke's huge palms.I had heard the girls giggling at school in so many conversations that I had never been invited to join. Some of them had said that their boyfriends had placed their face against their chest, almost smothering themselves in their girlfriend's tits. Would D
