2024-10-29 19:42:56Her scent was mixed with the smell of her blood and I focused on the tingles dancing on my skin instead of this because otherwise I was going to rage out of here and rip off Clarice’s head.
We were like that for another 10 or 15 minutes before she moved slightly. I debated putting her down real quick, unsure how she would feel about me holding her, but before I could her eyes fluttered open and she groaned out loud as all the pain made itself known again. Her hand came up to touch her face and she flinched. Then her head tilted back and she looked up to my face. I just stared down at her, my heart broken that this was my fault.
“Hello there.” she slurs and I chuckle cause she is adorable.
“Hi, how are you feeling?”
“Everything hurts.” She pauses a minute and closes her eyes before opening them again and blinking to adjust to the lights. “Did you have to

Her face is tucked down, her hair falling like a curtain around it. I can’t see her eyes but I can tell she is staring intently at the lid of her coffee. Her heart rate has increased and it only takes me a moment to deduce that she is extremely embarrassed about this, and genuinely worried what I will think. She regrets it.“Drunk night?” I ask, trying to keep it light and praying there was some other force at work that put them together that night.“The first and last of my life.” she breaths out slowly.“Quitting already? So young?” I half joke, half hope that’s true if this is what happens when she drinks.“Yep. 100%. Never a sip again. I’ve avoided it all my life because I’ve seen the decisions people make when they drink. One major fight with my dad and I became that person that I always judged and promised myself not to be. And i

I stretch out, my back making the irritating pains known from sleeping here, but those are quickly overpowered by the pain that hits me full force from my face and my head. Fucking hell.I groan and get up slowly to head over to the bathroom to find medicine. Once I’m properly medicated I draw a hot bath and crawl into it, grabbing my phone to ensure I don’t fall asleep. I unlock it to find a text from my sister, a few from my dad and one from an unknown number. I’m confused until I open it.-Doing good here at the clinic. Hope you don’t feel like a truck hit ya, but in case you do, try some of the herbs on your porch.-Giddiness rises up inside my chest at seeing a message from him. Not for the first time since I got this job, I wondered if taking it was such a good idea when I was clearly falling for my boss. But before I could overthink that again, I decided to deal with the headache first. Aft

“Hey you!” she calls from the front desk. I see that she is pulling togo containers from a bag and laying them out on the desk.“Hey, get some sleep?” “A ton of it. It helped, but not nearly as much as your concoction did.”“I resent the term concoction.” I defended and she laughed.“Fine… miracle tea. Whatever you want to call the witchcraft that healed my head, I appreciate it. Sometime you should share that with me.”“Sorry, I forgot to mention its a secret trick of the trade.”She looked at me with these ‘you have got to be kidding me’ eyes and they were so adorable it broke my stoic expression.“Fine, technically it isn’t mine. It was something I found through research and adjusted as needed for a patient awhile ago who had a

“If you want to hit me, Alpha or not, I’ll let you. If you want to fight me, I’ll also let you but I will defend myself.”“I don’t want to hit you, Armi. Well, I mean Delta does. But I don’t. At least not that much.”“I’d want to hit me.”“Yeah, but if you were any other random guy, no matter how much I’d be upset and want to murder him, I wouldn’t. Because he didn’t know she was my mate. And I am more upset because it was you, my brother, but the same thought process applies. You didn’t know.”“I never would have… if I did. Never. In a million years. Remi I swear.”“I know that.”“You know that’s why I stopped sleeping with wolves awhile ago. Because that is what happened. I slept with a girl. And a month later she

{ Novaleigh }The teapot’s shrill whistle filled every corner of the house as I stepped out of the shower. I slipped on some jeans and a sweatshirt, unable to keep the smile off my face.I glanced at my calendar while I head to the kitchen and run my fingers over the week.It was Thursday now. It had been a few days since the incident with Clarice and thanks to Remi’s secret herbs my face was practically completely healed, it was incredible. I turned off the heat for the teapot and pulled it onto a pot holder on the counter while I grabbed a bag of the magic herbs. Today was the last day I’d be taking them most likely but I wanted to take them all the way through till I was completely healed.The past two days had been filled with Remi, nonstop. I noticed a little difference in him when I came into work Wednesday. At first he seemed tenser, like something was weighing on his mind. B

{ Remi }Fuck me.She walks past, side eyeing me as she passes out into the hallway and I try my damnedest to think of something other than the feeling of her skin against mine and how badly I wanted to bend her over that clinic table. Her moans and the fact that her arousal is still filling this room. Goddess, I was hard as rock. I needed a cold shower bad. I walked over to the sink and splashed my face with the coldest water I could get from it. It did not help.I’d be thinking about what just happened for the rest of the day, no doubt. Her teasing was sexy as hell. I couldn’t believe she was the one who started all of that. Delta was howling like a maniac when she came in, saying he felt her wolf stirring. I wonder if that had something to do with it. She was still 2 days from her birthday and it was killing me that she didn’t know yet but it seemed I was right about my herbs. They were lowering the

“I guess we found out why it feels like I’ve known you forever. You are familiar.” She had a big smile on her face and this brightness in her eyes that wasn’t there before.“I was also yelled at, for that day. My parents weren’t happy I was so far away from them and alone. But I never told anyone about playing with you. You were my secret, and I even went back to the field more than a few times to see if you were there again. The field means something to me too.”This woman did not have my heart. She was my heart. I thought I was connected, I thought I knew what all this was… but its like we are attached by this string. And now there are 3 strings. And our tether is even stronger and our connection is deeper because we share this history and we share these emotions that have stayed with us even when we were apart. How was it possible I loved this woman this much, and we couldn’t even fee

{ Novaleigh }I wake to movement beside me, and it startles me awake. My eyes shoot open but I relax as memories of the night before flood over me. Remington. He is shifting in his sleep a bit. I’m still tangled up with him, his arm around me and my head on his chest.I snuggle back in closer to him but a moment later I realize what had made him start moving.*Knock Knock Knock*This time my head shoots off the pillow and I startle Remi awake with me.“What’s wrong? Are you ok?” he asks as he looks around in defensive mode.*Knock knock*He glances at me confused.“Who is here at…. 630am?” he asks as he checks his phone.“I have no idea.” I answer,, genuinely confused as well.“Want me to answer?” he asks and I

I leaned in and pressed a slow kiss to his lips. He responded immediately, our wolves rearing their heads and pushing forward. Due to the emotions today, I hadn’t allowed other feelings to surface. Like the unbearable desire to be with my mate that was flooding each part of me.I closed the small gap between us and his hands roamed my sides down to my ass and back up onto my hips again as a groan leaves his throat. I reach down to run my hands over his chest and to the hem of his shirt to pull it off him. He picks me up and turns us in one motion, setting me atop the conference table and sliding some of the folders to the other end. His mouth leaves mine and he is peppering kisses on my neck as I pull his shirt up.The door opens without a knock or a warning. In the doorway is Ben wearing a look of confusion that quickly turns to shock as he curses under his breath and closes the door just as fast.“I probably should have locked that.” Remi muses as he gives me a kiss and pulls away f

The beginning of the talking I was quiet. I read everything and heard each word but I kept my mouth closed as I internalized it all. I had the most catching up to do but paperwork was something I could make sense of so I read every line in every folder. I kept my senses open as my eyes flashed to Andy and Cody whenever they weren’t speaking, their eyes speaking volumes more than their mouths.At the start I wouldn’t have trusted them as far as I could throw them. They were cynical, testy and argued nearly every point my mate brought forward. But he was patient, clearly expecting this. He reworded anything unclear and asked each of them clarifying questions whenever they raised a concern or argument. By the time we passed that first hour my suspicion had been replaced with hope.“You made the most decisions?” Remi directs at Andy and Cody. We had learned that during the time that everyone escaped from Fire River and came back, they had been the ones to return first. They helped everyon

“But-” Mina mutters out as she stares at me, unable to finish her sentence.“I do apologize for all the confusion, it wasn’t my intention to cause any disruption in your training. I did however want to meet you, and I would like a word with you and your mate if that’s ok.” I tell Ben and he nods immediately.“Of course, we can talk more over here,” Ben says as he leads us back towards benches along the outside of the training grounds. Leo turns and shouts orders at the rest of the warriors. I hesitate, wanting to go back and explain to all of them more. Talk to them more. Knowing I left them with more questions than answers. But Joe pushes me toward Joe.“They can wait, believe me. Establishing with Ben and Mina will pave the way to establishing with the rest.”I nod and follow the group to the benches, sitting next to Nov across from Ben and Mina, Joe and Leo and Dean on the longest bench.“Did you say this is your little girl?” Leo asks Joe and he nods proudly.“This is Novaleigh, m

{ Remi }Her eyes were glazed over still as she answered me and I knew that wherever she had gone in her mind she was still half there. I watched as she turned to follow her dad out the door, slowly releasing my hand and it fell to my side. I looked down to the tote and promised myself this wouldn’t be the last time I saw it as I slid it back into the closet and followed her out. I paused as they went down the stairs, breathing deep and pulling the scent of my home into my lungs, allowing the memories to bridge with the emotions. My fate was sealed and as I stood there looking over just this one floor in this one house on this pack land I felt a connection unlike anything I’d ever experience in Fire River form between myself and the land. If there was one thing I knew, it was that Alpha’s are connected to their land, not just there people. I’d seen it with Armi, he could feel our pack lands in a way no one else could. The smallest part of

I glanced up and took Nov’s hand as I started up the steps first. Nov was just as distracted as I Was since we got here. She was younger when we left but I could tell she was being triggered by memories the same way I was every time we rounded a corner.“The banister changed,” she breathed out almost too quiet to hear.I looked at it closer as her hand wrapped around it.“It used to be squared,” I smile as I remember the old stair case. The wood had changed, the banister, it must have had to be rebuilt after whatever fire caused the damage underneath.We got to the second floor and I saw there were 6 doors total. Three to the left and three to the right. Dean started talking, I heard the word Beta and Gamma understanding that half of this floor was the Beta family and half was the Gamma family.“Are they empty right now then?” Nov asked and Dean responded with yes. “The entire packhouse had been empty for awhile. They cleaned, maintained, but there wasn’t a way to put anyone else insi

“What uh, what do you mean Joal?” Joe asked hesitantly.Joal’s eyes didn’t leave me. I was standing a few steps back from Nov and her father, my hands in my pockets as I let them engage. I wasn’t sure what to say necessarily, but I knew that this would be one of those moments that defined a lot of what was to come. I felt a need to tell them my name, to show who I was. My wolf wanted to claim it, take it back and this entire pack with it the longer we stood in these walls. I wasn’t as far down the rabbit hole as he was, but I did know I was on the right trail.“Remington Calloway, nice to meet you,” I told him as I stepped forward and extended my hand to Joal. He didn’t hesitate to take it and shake it firmly. I saw a sort of questioning in his eyes, a test. Something I was sure I would face a lot here with the ones who knew my father and would wonder who I was compared to him. The other three elders sucked in breaths as I said my full name but I didn’t take my eyes off Joal.“He foun

{ Remi }I step into the living room and while my jitters are calmed thanks to Nov, my brain is still misfiring. I'm sworn into the Fire Rock pack, I've been apart of that pack over 20 years. So why is my mark on my skin, from Silver Rock? This had to be a sign, I mean obviously it was a sign. But did it only mean we belonged there, or did it mean even more?I pull out my phone and dial Armi's name without stopping to rethink it anymore."Hey, what's up?" He sounds winded and I Realize he was running."I just wanted to let you know I'd be out of touch for a few days.""Oh?""Yeah, my mate shifted last night and uh, well I'm gonna be a little preoccupied. I already called the clinic, everyone is aware I'll be gone and it's in good hands but I wanted you to know why I'd be out of touch and off the pack lands."He chuckles loudly when I tell him I'll be preoccupied and I can picture his stupid smirk on his face."Yeah I appreciate the heads up and I definitely understand. Wouldn't want a

As he pulled away I could see how drained Joe looked from the toll the past day took on him. I could only assume how hard the weeks leading up to it had been as well as he navigated how to tell them and how they would take it. Anna wouldn't shift until she turned 25 or until she met her mate Joe had told me before, even if she wasn't turning 25 Nov would have still started breaking her suppression since she met me. Anna also wouldn't be going anywhere anymore though, she needed to stay here especially while we sort out the Silver Rock issue. All these thoughts were swirling in my mind as I watched the three of them talk. As much as I had to sort out my life, I felt responsible for Nov and Anna's now as well. What I chose would effect each of them."Well, I think Anna and I should go. You go be with your mate, I'm sure Nessa would appreciate to meet Remi's wolf. We can talk tomorrow." He looked at Nov until the last sentence when his eyes shifted to meet mine."There is a lot to talk a

"Hey Anna," I tentatively called out as I crossed into the room. Her eyes darted to me and then back to Remi who was now in conversation with my father and then back to me as she mouthed 'who is this?' I walked until I Was next to Remi and slipped my hand into his. This drew his attention to me mid sentence and I nudged my head to my sister. "Anna, this is Remington. Remi, this is my little sister Anna." Gentleman he is Remi nodded to her and then reached out to shake her hand. "It's a pleasure to meet you Anna, I've heard great things about you from Nov but I'm also a personal fan of your art. It's absolutely incredible." "Oh, well thank you." Anna said, clearly taken aback. "That's every kind of you to say, it means a lot." He nodded and then dad gestured to the living room so we all followed suit, sitting down. Dad and Anna took the chairs and unsurprisingly my mate pulled me down on the couch beside him, his arm around my shoulders and my sister's mouth hanging open. "I have
