CALLUMI would love to know what Ava said to dad over the mindlink to distract him that much. Since it involved Oscar and I… I had a pretty good idea.I also was very aware that the only reason we were here and Ava wasn’t was because of whatever she had said.She walked in between us on the way back from the field, winking as she went, before pulling the t-shirt over her head, leaving it in one of the spare clothes stashes and shifting to run back to the packhouse.Noah and Theo were on the other side of the group, both still slightly shocked that they’d seen Ava take their dad down. Who wouldn’t have been shocked though?An hour later, dad finally let us go.The FiveAva: I’m lonely, boys. Come join me.Noah: Where are you, Princess?Ava: You’ll find out soon enough. No cheating, you have to work it out on your own.Ava: For now though… enjoy.She followed that message up with a photo of her having just gotten out of the shower. As soon as we saw that, Oscar and I sprinted straight b
AVAI made a point of not seeing any of the twins for the rest of that day. One way or another, they would learn to shut doors behind them like civilised people.I still hadn’t spoken to them by the time I got to the training grounds for what had become my regularly scheduled run with Alex. Not many people could keep up with Artemis, and I needed to run with someone who stood a chance.“Morning, Alex,” I called out when I saw him.“Morning, Ava,” he smirked. “Have you spoken to my sons?”“Not since yesterday. Nor the Alpha’s sons.”He laughed so hard he nearly cried. “Oh Ava, you really are my favourite. Shall we run?”“Let’s do it.”We both shifted, and after Kieran and Artemis’ usual display of respect, we ran straight into the woods. We’d been running for an hour by the time I noticed something was… wrong.“Alex,” I called through the link. “Can you feel that?”“Feel what?”“We’re being watched.”“Fuck. Okay carry on like normal whilst we try to work this out.”“We’re too far out
CALLUMI was left standing there dumbfounded when Ava left. The looks on Oscar, Noah and Theo’s faces said they had exactly the same thoughts.“Dad,” I asked. “What is Ava? How… Why can she…”“That’s a question for Ava, son. But as she tried to tell you, she doesn’t need to go to the hospital, wolfsbane doesn’t affect her.” He sighed, turning back to Alpha Jacob. “You and I should probably go and apologise to her, Alpha.”Alpha Jacob nodded, sighing too. “We fucked up, she’s going to be pissed, and rightly so. Her power when she commanded you was something else… I know I would have had trouble resisting if it had been focused on me.” He groaned.“Yeah, I had no chance of resisting that command, Alpha,” dad replied.“If she doesn’t forgive us, we’re going to have to come up with a plan to back her up because she’ll tackle this on her own.”“Wait, Ava commanded you, dad?”He nodded, a scowl on his face.“Boys, why don’t you go down for lunch and make sure Ava is okay? Beta Alexander and
AVAJacob and Alex never did really calm down enough to talk about the rogue problem like grownups. I tried, but Alex and I just had an argument again.Now, I just wanted to drown my sorrows in alcohol, and there were six lovely people I wanted to do that with.The Super SevenAva: I feel like dancing. Who wants to come to the club with me tonight?Izzie: I’ll be there! I miss you, sweetcheeks.Callum: Of course we’ll be there, little one.Theo: Dinner at the pack house first?Ava: I’d rather not, I’ll be honest.Oscar: We can help keep dad and Alpha Jacob away from you if you want us to, Ava.Ava: Oscar, I’m not asking any of you to join the side of an argument against Alpha Jacob and Beta Alexander. If you do that, you’re declaring for me, and there’s no going back from that.That would give them something to think about. At this point, the Alpha and Beta of this pack had acknowledged me as an Alpha in my own right, and therefore our wolves really would see this as taking sides. Sin
AVAThe relief I felt at having made up with Beta Alexander was enormous. Having your second in command fighting with someone that is your equal and like your daughter can’t be easy. As much as Alpha Jacob did need to apologise too, my biggest problem was definitely Beta Alexander.“Ava,” Callum called out from behind me. I turned to see the entire group on the front steps of the pack house. “Are you ready to go?”I nodded, turning back to Alpha Jacob and Beta Alexander. “I’ll catch up with you two tomorrow,” I said, voice low enough that the twins, Leo and Izzie couldn’t hear. “We need to work out how to deal with those rogues before someone gets hurt in the crossfire.”They both nodded. “I agree, Alpha,” Alpha Jacob replied. “Have fun tonight, tomorrow, we’ll crack on with this.”I gave them both a small smile before turning to walk towards the group.Callum and Oscar immediately threw their arms around my shoulders, wedging me in between them. Of course Noah and Theo were jealous,
CALLUMI couldn’t believe that not only was I dancing with Ava on my own and that she had specifically asked for just me, but that she’d trusted me enough to bite her mating spot.When she whimpered as my teeth sunk into her neck, the scent of her arousal suddenly hit me, leaving me harder than I’ve ever been, my cock now pressing against her ass. Her breathing was heavy as she let her head fall back on my shoulder, her neck still exposed beautifully to me. I ran my tongue over the bite mark that was already healing, enjoying how much she squirmed against me as I teased the sensitive flesh.I moved my hands back to her hips, encouraging her to start dancing in front of me again. OSCARNothing had ever driven me crazy like the sight of my brother biting Ava’s mating spot; Theo and Noah were definitely in the same position.I stalked towards them where they danced, enjoying the blissed out look on Ava’s face and the smug smirk on Callum’s.Ava’s eyes widened when I appeared in front o
AVAAlex was sitting in the living room when Oscar, Callum and I got back to theirs. “You better be up for training tomorrow morning, Ava!” he shouted after me as we walked past.“Of course, Alex. Knocking you on your ass is the highlight of my day.”He snorted with laughter.He swapped to the mindlink before replying. “Please shut the door this time, I don’t need to see that again.”As soon as we were in the twins bedroom, Callum had me pressed against the wall, his mouth teasing its way down my neck with teeth, tongue and lips. I groaned when he licked over his bite mark from earlier, and cried out in pleasure when he pinched my nipples through my dress.“You’re going to have to be quieter than that, little one,” Callum whispered. “I’d hate for someone to hear when we make you scream.”“If you can make me scream,” I whispered, my voice breathy.“Is that a challenge, Alpha?” he growled in my ear. “Like you, I don’t back down from a challenge.”“Well then,” I replied. “Make me scream
AVAI was still sore the next morning when I got up for my run with Alex. At least this time he knew I was there from the beginning, so he even had a cup of coffee waiting for me.I took it gladly. “This is why you’re my favourite, Alex,” I sighed contently as I sipped the coffee.“I’m gonna pretend I didn’t hear that, Princess,” Callum had suddenly appeared behind me, Oscar just behind him.I turned and smirked in their direction. “Are you two joining us for training this morning?”They both nodded. “Theo and Noah are meeting us at the training ground too, and Izzie and Leo might be, depending on what time Leo wakes up.”I rolled my eyes, before turning back to Alex. “Shall we run to the training grounds, Alex?”He raised one eyebrow. “All fours or by foot?”“Mmmm…” I pretended to think about it. “All fours.”“That’s not fair!” Callum shouted.“All’s fair in love and war.” I stood, pressing a chaste kiss to his lips before turning to leave the room, winking at Oscar on my way past.A
