Beta - The Bayou Boys 54
VIVIANA I had just finished feeding the twins when the door to the nursery flew open. An omega, eyes wide with terror, stumbled inside, practically crashing into the wall in her desperation."There's an emergency! The house is being evacuated! Get the twins and get out now!"I didn't waste a second. The twins' tiny, innocent faces were the only thing I could focus on. I scooped them up, one in each arm, and rushed toward the door. The hallway was already filling with thick, acrid smoke. My throat tightened as I pushed through the haze. Every step was a struggle as the heat grew more intense, pressing in from all sides.The mansion was a war zone. People shouted over the noise, trying to organize the panic that had taken hold. Bodies collided as everyone fought to escape. The smoke made it nearly impossible to breathe, and I couldn't see more than a few feet in front of me. My thoughts tumbled over themselves.Where were Alpha and Luna? Someone yelled that they were at a function away

VIVIANA When I finally opened my eyes after the boat crash, I was sprawled across a massive, familiar smelling wolf.Phin.His powerful body cushioned my fall, his fur soft against my skin. He had caught me and saved me from the deadly crash. Before I could even process what had happened, he shifted back, wrapping me tightly in his arms.He shielded me from the debris and chaos still flying around us. For a moment, everything else faded away. The danger, the panic, the fear, gone. All gone.It was just the two of us, tangled together in the aftermath of the crash.As the world finally settled, I remained on top of him, my heart pounding just as fast as his. Slowly, I lifted my head, meeting his eyes.Those deep green eyes that had haunted my dreams since the night of the ball. This close, with the adrenaline still coursing through my veins, the connection between us was undeniable. It was real, more real than anything I'd ever felt.Phin leaned up, his breath warm against my ear

PHIN With Viviana finally safe, the weight of the past few days dissolved in the quiet of the night. Marilee was spending the night with Morna, leaving Viviana and me alone for the first time. The house felt strangely still, with only the distant croaks of frogs and the gentle rustle of the bayou breaking the silence.She sat on the edge of the bed, her long chestnut hair flowing over her shoulders. The soft glow from the lamp bathed her in warm light, making her seem almost ethereal. I took a deep breath and joined her, my heart pounding with a mix of anticipation and fear.“Do you mind if I mark you, Viv?” I asked, the weight of the request heavy in my chest. “I need to know because... when we have sex, I might not be able to control myself. I need to do it right.”Her eyes widened briefly before she looked down, biting her lower lip. “You can,” she whispered, but I noticed the way she fidgeted, her shoulders tense at the mention of sex.I reached out and trailed my fingers along h

PHIN I entered her slowly, savoring the warmth that surrounded me. For a moment, I stayed still to let her adjust, appreciating the deep connection between us. Every subtle movement, every shift of her body, felt like a beautiful melody.I ran my hands along the curve of her waist, relishing the softness of her skin. She gripped the sheets and gasped softly but pulled me closer by wrapping her legs around my waist. The intensity of it all nearly overwhelmed me. The connection between us ignited something deep inside. Something so powerful I half-expected to see my skin glowing. Her body surrounded me, and every nerve in my body went on high alert, attuned to her every movement, every breath. As I grazed my teeth along her neck, ready to claim her, I felt her tense beneath me. She opened her eyes, and in them, I saw fear.A fear that cut through the haze of desire and struck me. Hard.I paused, tracing the spot where my teeth had been with my thumb, trying to reassure her. "Shh, Che

PHIN I moved between her legs, feeling the warmth of her body as I positioned myself closer. I gently pushed her legs up, bending them at the knees. As I kissed her ankle, the scars caught my attention. My chest tightened with anger. Intense anger that I had to bite away.The thought of her being treated that way, subjected to such brutality, filled me with a new rage I'd never experienced before.I couldn't let myself dwell on it, though. Not now. This moment wasn't about the past.It was about giving her something new, something that would start to heal those old wounds.I brushed my lips over the marks on her skin. "You deserve better," I murmured, trailing kisses up her leg. "You deserve to be cherished." Her body tensed slightly, and I paused, giving her a moment to adjust, to realize that this was different. I wasn't going to rush her, wasn't going to push beyond what she was ready for."Are you okay?" I asked, looking up at her. She nodded, her eyes wide, a hint of uncertai

PHINMy teeth sank into her flesh, and her body shuddered against me. Her breath caught as pain mingled with pleasure, binding us in a way beyond words. The muffled sound that escaped her blended both sensations, echoing in the quiet room and reverberating through me. The force of the bite sealed our bond, a connection forged in blood and flesh... Raw, real, and unbreakable.As I held her close, feeling the last waves of my release pulse through me, I knew this was different. This wasn't just sex. It wasn't about physical gratification or dominance. It was deeper, beyond anything I had ever known. The intensity left us breathless and spent, our bodies still intertwined. The bond we had just created was buzzing with energy.I kept my teeth on her neck for a moment longer, savoring the connection and the strange sense of completeness it brought. Finally, I released my grip and kissed the spot where I had bitten her. The mark was already forming, a permanent reminder that she was m

VIVIANA I lay there, worn out and content after being with him. I stared at the ceiling. Everything felt unreal. Like I was caught between reality and a dream.Phin moved beside me, and before I knew it, he was out of bed. "Where are you going?" I asked, turning to follow him.He gave me a soft smile, that boyish charm that somehow melted away years of fear and pain. "Just starting something for you," he replied, disappearing into the bathroom. The sound of running water filled the room, and I couldn't help but smile at the thought of him preparing a bath for me.He returned, his eyes dancing as he lifted me from the bed. "Phin, I can walk," I protested, though I didn't really mean it. I felt safe in his arms, his strength reminding me that I didn't have to do everything alone anymore.He shook his head as he laughed. "I want to carry you," he insisted. "Besides, you've earned it."I chuckled, leaning into him as he carried me to the bathroom. "I doubt Marilee's feet ever touch the

CASSY I woke up to Teddy snoring beside me, a steady rumble that seemed to vibrate through the mattress. The weight of his arm around my waist kept me in place. When I attempted to sit up, his grip tightened, drawing me closer as he slept.I sighed, knowing it was futile to fight against him when he was like this. Teddy was always so damn strong, even when he wasn't trying to be.I stared at the ceiling, listening to the rhythm of his breathing, and my mind started to wander. It felt like I'd been out for days, lost in a fog of exhaustion and recovery with Leila. I tried to piece together what had happened, but everything was still hazy.After a while, I couldn't take it anymore. I rolled over, kissing his temple. "If you don't let me up, I'm gonna pee on you."His lips curved into a sleepy smile as he released his hold on me. "Bien, bien." (Fine.)I laughed softly, slipping out of bed and making my way to the bathroom. The cool tile underfoot was a shock compared to the warmth of
