Thank you for reading!
Reegan's POV I took Kat’s hand and all but dragged her along behind me, in a hurry to get her back to our room. Ryan followed us and when he noticed she was struggling to keep up with our long strides, he scooped her up bridal style and carried her the rest of the way. Sometimes I forgot our little short-stack had to take two steps for every one of ours. He sat her on the bed and I immediately began peeling off her yoga pants while Ryan pulled her t-shirt over her head. I secretly loved it when she wore her yoga pants since they showed off her perfectly round ass, but right now I wanted skin to skin contact. My brother had already stripped down to his fitted boxers and was pulling our mate to the center of the bed. I made quick work of my own clothes and slid in next to her, pulling the covers over us. Ryan had her back pulled in tight against his chest while I laid on my side facing her. She was so beautiful, it took my breath away. I ached to touch her but I wouldn’t, sincerely
Kat’s POV Being a Beta’s daughter meant I was no stranger to pack politics and the importance of making a good impression on the ranked members of other packs. It could mean the difference between maintaining alliances, making new ones, or losing those valuable opportunities. The right alliances could mean the difference between life and death for weaker packs, should they be attacked or their resources be threatened. I never had a problem playing the part before. I enjoyed meeting new people and most of them were pleasant enough. If I didn’t like someone, I just avoided them. As the daughter of the second in command, I wasn’t important enough to cause a rift by refusing to spend time with an arrogant Alpha or two. So, all in all, I never dreaded these events. Today, however, was a different story. Today was the “small get-together” Rachael had planned and this time, I was the future Luna and the impression I made carried a lot of weight. Of course, what was supposed to be small
Kat’s POV The twins wrapped my arms through theirs and led me out to the patio. They were glued so tightly to my sides that I worried they would step on my dress as we walked. We stepped through the backdoor to find a crowd of people already mingling. Tables were scattered throughout the paved area and spilled over onto the grassy lawn. Soft music floated through hidden speakers nearby, interrupted by the murmur of various conversations. A hush fell over the crowd as we wove our way between the small groups of people huddled together. My mates stopped frequently as we made our way through, introducing me to important people from various packs. There was no way I would remember all their names. I was going to need a cheat sheet to keep them all straight. For the most part, everyone was very friendly and quick to congratulate us on our mate bond. I did notice a few of the unmated she-wolves blatantly ignored me, but both Reegan and Ryan made a point to introduce me to them directly
Kat's POV We all sat down, Raphe and Rachael joining us, and the conversation flowed. Dad filled me in on the latest news from home which wasn’t much, but a part of me still missed it. Especially Sarah and Tyler, but I expected to see them both next weekend. Out of courtesy, Jesse and Larissa had been invited but were conspicuously absent. Not that I’d expected them to come. I was actually glad they hadn’t. It would’ve just been awkward after our last meeting. Soon, my dad and Raphe were discussing their latest golf outings. Rachael listened politely but when the conversation turned to pars and birdies, sand traps and the like, I completely tuned out. She truly was the perfect Luna, but then again, maybe she liked golf. My mates indicated that we should circulate some more so we excused ourselves, promising to catch up with my dad later. We were in the middle of a conversation with the Alpha, Luna, and Beta female from the Snowy Mountain pack, fervently debating the pros and cons
Kat’s POV Searching the crowd for my mates, they were nowhere to be seen. Several people stopped me to offer congratulations and Daddy came to say he and Raphe were sneaking off for a glass of whiskey and some peace and quiet. We made plans to meet for breakfast in the morning then parted ways. I was still sifting my way through the throngs of people when a group of Lunas pulled me into their little group. I vaguely registered their conversation and attempted to nod at appropriate intervals, but my mind was preoccupied with locating the twins. It wasn’t like them to leave me alone for so long, making me wonder how serious the rogue situation really was. My eyes continued to wander, hoping to catch sight of them and soon I found what I was looking for. Although it was the exact opposite of what I hoped to see. Ryan was still missing but Reegan stood a few yards away, surrounded by several women. Beautiful women. At least two of which had their hands on him. They were all smiling an
*This chapter contains mature content of a sexual nature. Kat’s POV Reegan burst through the bedroom door, carrying me in a football hold at his side. My stilettos had long ago fallen off my feet as he ran with me down the hall in his hurry to get me alone. He set me on my feet and I stepped back from him, never breaking eye contact as I pulled on the tie holding my wrap dress closed. The dress fell open and I let it slip from my shoulders to pool on the floor behind me. Reegan’s eyes darkened as he took me in, standing before him in just my lacy white bra and panties and a pair of thigh high stockings with lace trim. “Fuck baby!” He bit out, trying to hold back his wolf. “Panties off! Now!” I stared him down for a moment but quickly obeyed when one of his eyes turned silver and his wolf growled. “Good girl!” He praised in a rough voice, telling me Rikkon was sharing control. “Now get on your hands and knees on the bed.” Another order. I complied and he walked around to sta
Ryan’s POV “For the Goddess damn last time, It’s not a waste of resources. It’s necessary!” Alpha Calvin of Opal Moon was steadfastly arguing in favor of security camera installation in unclaimed forest areas to gather intel on rogue activity to be shared amongst the allied packs. A few of the other Alphas agreed with him while others felt the threat they posed was not sufficient to warrant the cost of such an undertaking. We had been talking in circles for over an hour now, rehashing the same points over and over again without making any headway. This was not how I wanted to spend my evening, in a fruitless debate with a bunch of stubborn men instead of holding my angel close, feeling the warmth of her luscious curves pressed into me. In typical Reegan fashion, he had excused himself long ago. He was probably already back by her side. Inter-pack relations were important and I didn’t want to seem rude but I needed to be sure Kat was okay, so I surreptitiously ran my eyes over the
*Warning: This chapter contains mature content of a sexual nature. Ryan’s POV Reegan didn’t answer her but he sent me images of what he had in mind through our link. I immediately scooped her up bridal-style and carried her back to the bedroom. I was completely on board with his plan. It was something we’d been waiting for since the day we met her, but knew we’d have to be patient until she was ready. I set her down gently on her feet at the end of the bed. Reegan stood a few feet away, facing her while I stood behind her, close enough for her to feel my breath on her ear. I loved the little shiver that ran through her just from my proximity. “You said you want us both equally. Maybe it’s time you prove it.” I said huskily, placing my hands on her hips as I ran my nose down the side of her neck. Just the thought of our plan had me rock solid. “H-, how?” She breathed out, her eyes locked on Reegan where he stood watching her hungrily. I ran my hands up her arms to her shoulders
Thank you so much to all mu lovely readers for sticking with "An Unwanted Fate" until the end. I hope you enjoyed the ride as much as I did while writing it! I hope to start publishing Book 2 in the Celtic Wolf serie:: "A Tangled Fate: Bound By Her Betas" within the next week. Sneak peek: “Mate!” My wolf howled. “She’s ours!” “What are you talking about, Callum? She can’t be ours, not yet.” My wolf whimpered and whined in my head, begging me to go to our mate. I felt his pain but I knew I couldn’t give him what he wanted. So I did the only thing I could do. I ran. When Finnick Cross recognizes his mate in 16-year-old Sarah Woods, he is ecstatic to find the girl he loves belongs to him. There is only one problem. She’s too young to recognize him as her mate. Afraid he won’t be able to restrain his wolf from claiming their underage mate, Finnick decides to leave, intending to return and claim her as his on her 18th birthday. But when an unplanned encounter derails his plans, wil
Jesse's POV I’d been locked in this room all night without seeing another soul. I assumed the Glass Lake Alphas knew I was here and why. Their Beta would have told them by now. I’d fully expected them to come storming in here last night, fuming over what I’d done, or tried to do, to their Luna. I would have gotten some small satisfaction from it if they had, knowing I’d at least ruined their perfect night. But they never came. It could have been worse. I could tell this was a room for prisoners by the stark, slate-gray concrete of the walls and lack of amenities. But it wasn’t the dank, rancid-smelling lower cells reserved for the vilest offenders. Perks of being a fellow Alpha I guessed. Still, I didn’t want to spend any more time here than absolutely necessary. The room had no windows so I had no way of knowing what time it was when I finally heard two sets of footsteps approaching in the hall. Despite my wolf, Ares, whimpering in my head, I puffed out my chest and squared my sh
Jenna's POV “Aaaaaahhhh!” I screamed as I angrily stomped back and forth in my tiny cell. Not that I could go very far in either direction. And not that anyone could hear me scream. I knew there was a guard down here somewhere. I could smell him. But he never came close enough for me to see him. If I could just get him to come closer, I was sure I could manipulate him to help me out of here eventually. But no. I was only given food and water once a day and even then, it was one of the nasty old she-wolves from the kitchen who brought it to me. After Reegan had brought that bitch down here to see me, one of the warriors must have come to increase the length on my chains. I was unconscious at the time from . . . well I wasn’t exactly sure what she’d done to me. All I could remember was being slammed into the wall by something powerful I couldn’t see. At least I wasn’t hanging from the ceiling anymore but it was a small victory. When I’d asked why I was being offered such civility
Damien’s POV I was sitting at my desk, absently bouncing a rubber ball against my closed office door. Throw, bounce, catch, repeat. It was all I was good for today. That and getting lost in my thoughts of her. Tossed aside on the corner of my desk, taunting me with its presence, was the invitation to the mating ceremony for Kat and her Glass Lake Alphas. It had arrived today and I had been totally blindsided by it. I shouldn’t have been. I knew it was coming. I just hadn’t expected it to be so soon. I’d ignorantly thought I’d have at least a month or more to adjust to the idea. “It hasn’t even been a week, for Goddess’ sake!” I complained out loud to my empty office. “Boss, the transfer from Snowy Mountain is at the gate. I’m going to meet her now. I’ll bring her by your office for an introduction before I give her an official tour. If she’s hot, it might be an extended tour.” My Gamma, Eric, chuckled in my head. “Sure, whatever.” I responded unenthusiastically. I’d been s
Ian’s POV I looked down at the beautiful she-wolf in my arms as we danced together at Kat’s mating ceremony reception. I inhaled her mouthwatering strawberry scent and drank in her beauty. Her silky auburn hair that flowed in soft waves down her back, shining like the embers of a fire. Her eyes that sparkled like emeralds and danced with happiness when they looked at me. I enjoyed the feel of her lush curves as she pressed her body tight against me, the soft swell of her breasts against my chest and the flare of her hips where my hands fit so perfectly. I itched to lower them and feel the flesh of her perfect ass in my hands, but I forced myself to behave. There would be time for that later. Resting my cheek on her head, I chuckled to myself as I thought back to how nervous I’d been during those first weeks as we both learned to navigate our new relationship. All I’d ever known of women was Elena, Katalina’s mother and my first mate. But I never wanted Isabella to feel like she
*Warning: This chapter contains mature content of a sexual nature. Kat's POV I vaguely wondered how I ended up here, sandwiched between my two sexy mates, their hands roaming my body and muddling my mind. All I had wanted to do was lay by the pool, read a book, and relax but now all I could think about was the need to feel them touching me and kissing me, to have them both buried inside me. It was all-consuming, pushing every other thought aside. Reegan was lavishing my tits with attention, sucking at my hardened nipples like a starving man. He had one muscular thigh between my legs, pressed against my core and I couldn’t stop myself from grinding against him. The dampness between my legs was quickly soaking through my bikini bottoms, running down my thighs and soaking his leg. When Ryan stepped up behind me and sucked on his mark, my knees went weak. He slipped his arms around my waist, holding me up as his brother released my nipple with a tug of his teeth and stood up to capt
Reegan's POV I was totally in the zone, killing my workout, when all of a sudden I felt my wolf get anxious. He was pacing around in my head, all amped up. “Rikkon, what’s up man?” I ask, starting to get anxious myself. “Something’s wrong with mate! She’s upset! We need to go check on her now!” he whined back at me. He didn’t need to tell me twice! Since marking Kat, our wolves were so in tune to each other, it was like some of her Celtic wolf’s intuition was shared with us through the bond. If Rikkon felt something was wrong, then something was wrong. I was already moving towards the door. Not wanting to wait on the elevator, I took the stairs at wolf speed. In less than a minute I was flying through the door of our hotel room, slamming it against the wall as I flung it open. “What the fuck is going on in here?” I yelled as my eyes frantically searched the room for my baby girl. My wolf led me straight to her wolf so I knew she was here somewhere but I didn't see her. Tha
Ryan’s POV “I’m gonna head to the gym, get in a work-out before we take our girl out tonight. Wanna join?” Reegan asked. We were walking back from the hotel restaurant after enjoying breakfast with our mate. It had been several weeks since our mating ceremony and we were finally taking a much needed trip alone together. We would've liked to go sooner, but with the impending threat of the Dark Fae, and so much unknown about them, we couldn’t leave our pack unprotected. It had taken a while to mobilize our allies to send some of their warriors to reinforce our security. We’d decided to honeymoon at a five-star luxury resort on a tropical island and had just arrived yesterday afternoon. My brother and I had considered so many options when deciding to surprise Kat with this trip but with all the stress of the last few months and the uncertainty of the future, we settled on a place we could truly relax and unwind, just enjoying each other’s company. “You should go!” Kat offered. “I’
*Warning: This chapter contains mature content of a sexual nature. Kat’s POV For a moment, I lost myself in the beautiful seafoam green eyes staring deep into my soul when suddenly, I was pulled to my knees. Ryan reached out, grasping the low-cut V of my dress and ripped it right down the middle, leaving me completely bare to their view. “Fuck! I loved that dress on her.” Reegan cursed. “We’ll buy her a new one.” Ryan dismissed him. “It was in my way.” Then, coming along either side of me, they both helped to lay me gently on my back. I watched, practically drooling, as they stepped back and slowly discarded their own clothes, piece by agonizing piece. They were moving lazily, like they were completely unaware of the aching need I had for them to touch me. “Relax, Angel. We’re going to take care of you.” Ryan’s voice was full of erotic promises. Reegan tucked his arms under me and rolled me to my stomach. I could feel their heated gazes burning into me and I heard what sounde
