Julian’s POV I didn't go back to the hotel that night. I felt convinced that the sexy brunette would be by the door expecting my return, and that kept me away from Henri’s apartment for a week. Days without my laptop have been refreshing. Henri suggested I shouldn't go to the pack estate in Chappaqua because he also wouldn't have if the scenario had been real, and I was actually dead. “I wouldn't know how to face them because the pack would have wanted me to replace you as the Alpha, and I can't go back to that life.” So, these few days, I've been spending time with Onyx, and Henri, forcing them to train with me. Henri wouldn't shift, but Onyx and I shift every night.At that moment, I was on my way back to the hotel, determined to go get my laptop from Henri's lodge. There was no point waiting anymore. By now, she should have gotten a new man to satisfy her sexual urges. I also had a few of my things I would like to take as well, so I really couldn't keep on procrastinating b
Karyna’s POV “Fine. I’ll accept you as one person. But please stop playing all these tricks on me,” I agreed, and a sly grin appeared on his face as he shifted, moving closer to me.Reality struck when I realized our position, in a bedroom. On a bed, I presumed. And alone at that. Suddenly, he snuck up behind me and pulled me flush to his chest.“Oh,” I let out a shaky moan as his head rested on my shoulder, lightly planting kisses against my neck. Julian’s hand snaked down my waist and another on my shoulder as he ground against me. “You feel amazing,” he whispered in the shell of my ear and it felt like it was only the two of us left in this world. Fireworks exploded in my stomach and it took everything in me not to lose consciousness. Each touch was like bombs exploding in my lower stomach and the way he rocked against me so gently, so passionately.“Please…” I whispered. I didn't even want to hold in my sexual urge right now. “Please, what?” He growled lowly, biting my ear l
Henri’s POV I looked into the bathroom mirror, inspecting my injuries. It had healed over the past week, with just a litter of bruises and scratches around my face and body, and I felt relieved.I didn’t like being cooped up in this tiny motel, neither did I like being this idle for so long, if I could help it.I hoped that Julian made sure that there were no loose ends untied in our plan, or else, it could lead to another thing.Adjusting my glasses properly on my face, I stepped out of the bathroom, and into the small adjoining bedroom.Because of my injuries and the time it took to heal, my body became weaker than normal, causing me to want to rest all the time.So, it was no surprise that as soon as I set my eyes on the bed, I laid down on it, trying to relax.“Why is Julian taking so long? His prolonged absence is making me uneasy,” I muttered to myself, a growing sense of irritation settling in.Why did my intuition insist that something was amiss?A few minutes later, I heard
Karyna’s POV “What’s your name? I don’t think I’ve ever gotten it,” My eyebrows shot up in surprise and my mouth widened quite a bit. All these while, I thought Professor Henri would at least know my name, since I was his student and all, but then again, we aren’t that close to begin with.It made me wonder…did Julian even know my name? I don’t think so. He has never addressed me with it.I realized that I had insisted on being anonymous when we met in the club and hooked up. Given the tragic situation after, it was excusable.“I’m Karyna,” I told him. “Not the usual Karina, the I is replaced with a Y,” I explained properly.“Karyna…” he drawled lowly, causing me to shiver. Just him saying my name turned me on more than I would have ever imagined. He had such a deep, nice voice. “Such a peculiar name. It’s not something I would forget easily,”“Not so, I was named after a customer care representative my mother spoke to online,” I told him, unsure of why I was even divulging this inf
Julian’s POV I walked into the room, mildly surprised by the scene in front of me. Brunette was on her knees, diligently slurping on my brother’s tool messily, moaning like it was the best thing in the world.This didn’t bother me in the slightest. As special as I found the human girl to be, I didn’t mind sharing her with Henri, especially seeing how much she affected him as well.My surprise was that she managed to break through his defenses so easily, and that was quite an impressive feat.I leaned against the doorway, reveling in the sight. She bobbed her head around his cock, making him moan and grip the sheets underneath him tightly, so hard I feared it would rip from his superhuman strength.She struggled to take him down her throat, but she couldn't fit everything into her mouth, so she multitasked, licking the underside of his cock and cupping his balls, kissing it lightly.“Damn Karyna,” Henri hissed, voice hoarse, as he forced more of his length into her mouth.My hand sli
Karyna’s POV“I can't take it…” I cried out, my legs trembling violently. I felt so dizzy and raw, like my whole body on its own was a sensitive entity.I still felt a little bit of stimulation left after Julian fucked me earlier, but this was on a whole other level. The plug that I just discovered was also a vibrator pressed against all the tender parts in my ass, and when Henri took it out, the pleasure was taken up a notch. I felt pain as well, but it was a sweet balance. But when he tried to push his cock in my ass hole, I decided that I had enough. It was too much for me to handle. I couldn’t take him inside there yet.“Hen…ri,” I whimpered, turning back to look at him. “Please…I can’t…” I begged him with tears in my eyes.I know I look like a mess right now. I felt like it too. But with my red, tear-stained face, my lips pink and raw from Julian’s kisses and sucking their dicks, and my dazed look of arousal, I could only wonder what Henri saw that made his green eyes turn in
Karyna’s POVI was woken up by a sudden pang in between my legs and my back. I groaned, slowly getting rid of my tiredness, but it also made me feel every bit of discomfort tenfold.“Holy shit,” I muttered to myself, blinking back the tears that sprang up to my eyes. It hurt so bad!I managed to sit up, screwing my face up at the stiffness my body was feeling at the moment. The memories of last night came pouring in like a flood, and I turned my attention to the two men sleeping on each side of me.They looked so alike, it was uncanny. Especially as Henri had ditched his glasses to sleep, I could hardly tell which was which.My mouth watered when I was given full view of their fit bodies. I fought the urge to drag my fingers down their abs, swallowing.God, they really wrecked my holes last night.I quietly and subtly managed to get off the bed without waking them successfully, and I searched for my phone.When I got it, I saw that it was already ten minutes past 11. I have already mi
Julian’s POV My phone buzzed beside me, rudely waking me up. I frowned with annoyance, thinking that it was my alarm blaring, but when I turned the screen to my vision, I realized that it was a call.My frown deepened. It was from an unknown number. I sat up immediately, running my fingers through my messy hair. At a sensitive period like this, picking up a strange number could be very risky, but then again, it could be something else entirely.I was conflicted. I finally decided to pick up the call on the last ring, reluctantly placing it to my ear, as if the phone itself would cause me harm.“Hello…?” I called out cautiously, bracing myself.“Hey! It’s me,” I blinked, not quite expecting her voice through the phone. Brunette? Why was she calling me? When did she have my number? I looked briefly at the phone, discovering that I must have picked Henri’s phone by accident.Still…why was she calling Henri? Wasn’t she…My still sleepy eyes turned to look at the spot where Brunette wa
Julian’s POV “Don’t kill him yet. I want to return all the ten slaps he gave me.” Karyna’s words rang in my ears and I felt a dark cloud of rage enveloped me. I shot forward but she grasped my hand, restraining me as I fumed. “Release my hand,” I ordered her, breathing heavily. Karyna shook her head stubbornly. “No. You promised me not to kill him if Henri didn't.” She whispered, her hand squeezing my clenched fist. I wasn't aware he hit her 10 times before I made that oath. No one can stop Venar from dying today. “I can't keep this promise, Karyna. Only his death can dispel the anger rooted in my chest.” I growled, my whole body convulsing with fury. I released my Alpha aura, thinking the overwhelming energy would push her away but she remained steadfast, unwilling to leave my side. Any sensible werewolf would have kept their distance from a raging Alpha, knowing that the raw power could easily crush them, and they would never be able to shift again. But of course, my Kary
Henri’s POV I had made a vow to kill Venar with my own hands, just like I did his father, Venom. Why? Because both of them are nuisances. That son of a gun kidnapped my Karyna and nearly slapped her to death. “Fucking bastard!” I growled, my hands clenched tightly on the steering wheel as I trailed after Venar. I wanted to go after him that morning, but Karyna was badly injured, and I feared we might lose the surviving baby in her womb, so I let him escape. I placed the highest fucking bounty on his head, but none of the hitmen found find him. I had a feeling he had been lurking in the shadows like a rat scuttling away from the light, and I was right. “You think you can hide forever, don’t you?" I muttered under my breath, a venomous smirk lifting my face. “I’ll make you regret every choice you’ve made. You’ll wish you never crossed me, just like your father did. When I finally catch up with him, I will make sure you taste what it felt like to be slapped to death.” Th
Karyna’s POV The short skirt I wore did nothing to conceal the wetness trickling down my thighs. I could even catch a whiff of my own arousal in the air, and I was sure Julian and Henri could sense it too. “Jules, please,” I let out a desperate plea when he wouldn’t slip his fingers inside me. Julian had been tormenting me; using his middle finger to rub my clit in circles, lightly pressing kisses against my neck. He growled lowly, that deep sound sending explosive waves of arousal down my spine. “What are you begging me for, my love?” Julian whispered in the shell of my ear, and it suddenly felt like we were the only ones in the car. The sensation in my lower stomach was too consuming. I could feel my pussy throbbing painfully as my heart pounded under my chest. The intensity of the moment was almost too much to bear, so I just looked into his green eyes, hoping he’d understand just how much I craved him at that moment. “Alpha. I don’t think your fingers can d
Karyna’s POVAs we made our way to Henri’s car, a whirlwind of emotions washed over me. I couldn't bring myself to accept that my abusive father was truly gone. I was still in shock. I could feel the overwhelming amount of fear I had for Thomas Vegas dissipating with each assurance that he was indeed dead. He was killed by Julian. I was caught between feeling relieved that he could no longer harm me, or force me to do his vile wishes and the nagging question of whether I should feel sorrowful for his death.I’d known that cruel man all my life, and I’d always thought he was invincible, so it was crazy to believe that he was dead, just like that. He had been wealthy and influential during his life, but now he wouldn’t have a final resting place because Julien had killed him to avenge me, and his body would remain lost forever.When we got in front of the car, Julian pulled the back seat door for me, and I slid in. I could feel the sizzling heat coming from his body as he sat beside
Julian’s POV I was anticipating kissing Karyna until she was lost for words again when an iPhone ringing echoed in my ears. “Who's fucking phone is that? Fuck, it’s mine.” I groaned inwardly and went to pick it up, licking my lips to savor the pancake I had just eaten. When I saw that it was Leah who was calling me, my suppressed anger returned. I didn't want this woman calling me. But I was still using the same phone I was using when I was wearing the skin mask that was similar to Onyx’s face. Jeremy deserves his phone and number. I made a mental note to sort that out today before turning to Henri and Karyna. “It’s Leah,” I revealed, bitterness coating my voice like poison. I felt Karyna’s worry surge, even without her saying a word. She looked at me with those baby-blue eyes, her gaze filled with concern and thoughts of another threat. Another threat from my family. I clenched my jaw at that. I contemplated whether I should step outside to answer her. Leah knew I acce
Karyna’s POV I'd been eavesdropping on Julian and Henri's conversation after Henri entered. I heard Henri's laughter and Julian's question of what was funny. Henri's response of “everything” was followed by Julian's shocking revelation that made me blink in disbelief. Besides the fox he killed, he had also attempted to harm one of them. Did he see killing as a normal thing? “I was simply bullying her back for you,” Julian stated, walking over to retrieve the bowl of pancakes in my hand. My eyes widened in astonishment. I couldn't fathom his nonchalant attitude towards serious actions like this. I paused my lips, my heart sinking as I gazed back and forth between the Alphas I had fallen hopeless for. I didn't want to think that I had judged them wrongly or I had underestimated their animalistic nature. “I understand where you're coming from, Julian. But you can't go around ending lives or torturing animals just to defend me from bullies or make me accessories,” “I alre
Henri’s POV As I dashed after Karyna, my heart pounded with worry. How could she be so reckless, especially after yesterday's events? The arsonist might still be out there, and here she was, venturing off alone because she was pissed about the death of a fox. Her blind courage angers me and it fills me with worry. Why couldn't she be more concerned about her safety? I finally caught up to her just before she reached the guards who were stationed in front of the house. Without hesitation, I grasped her arm firmly and stopped her in her tracks. “Karyna, stop!” I urged, my voice thick with concern and frustration. “This is just our way of life. It's normal for werewolves to hunt and kill other animals. Hunting and killing are what we do. There's no need to get upset,” I deadpanned. Karyna turned to shoot me an angry glare, her baby-blue eyes revealing bitterness and confusion. “Normal? Are you freaking serious right now?” Her voice trembled as she spoke. “Just because
Julian’s POV The snow poured heavily on me, stinging like a thousand icy needles, yet I refused to halt my sprint. What was supposed to be a simple 15-minute early morning run turned into a relentless sprint fueled by my escalating anger. It wasn't just Henri's continuous provocation to abandon the Pack that fueled my fury. It was the unsettling realization that his reasons were valid, and I might be forced to confront a truth I wasn't ready to face. I was certain he'd only come back to safeguard Karyna and our child. Yet, deep down, I clung to a foolish wish that his return would reignite the memories of the beautiful life we once shared here and he would want to protect the pack, but as I said, it was a foolish wish. It hurt like crazy to admit that he didn't see this Pack estate as home but as a refuge camp, where he could hide from his enemies, and leave at any slight inconvenience. “Do you really think they want me back as their Alpha? All they want is a pack to b
Karyna’s POV In my dreams, Julian and Henri were having a heated argument. Julian was clearly upset, warning Henri never to mention abandoning the Pack, but Henri insisted it was necessary for our survival. I thought it was all just a dream until a loud door slam woke me up, and there was Julian storming off in frustration. “Henri,” I called out, my voice filled with surprise. I saw the worry etched on his face as he locked eyes with me, and I felt a pang in my heart. Did he insist on abandoning the pack because he was triggered by my mention of needing a break from the chaos surrounding us? Henri sighed softly and walked closer, he climbed on the bed and pressed a kiss to my forehead. “Morning, sweetheart,” he greeted, his voice above a whisper. Though his tone seemed light, the somber look in his green eyes and the shadow of regret on his face showed he was sad about the argument he just had with Julian. “Did you really believe we will be safe if we abandon the Pack?” I
