#Vote: She strikes back#
I barged into the oracle's bedroom, my eyes glaring at her, she must’ve seen this coming yet said nothing to me. “You knew,” I spat, my words dripping with venom. “You knew what would happen to my mate, and you said nothing!” I lashed out at her. Paige laughed a bitter echo of mockery that only fueled my rage. “Of course, I knew,” she replied, “I warned you, Claire. I told you that the moon goddess would not take kindly to your interference.” “And yet you said nothing,” I seethed, my voice trembling with anger. “You let him suffer, you let him suffer, you let him be taken from me, and you did nothing to stop it!” “I will not abandon him,” I declared, “No matter what trials we face, we will face them together. I have decided to be there for my mate.” I repeated to her once again. The oracle’s lips curved into a sardonic smile, her eyes gleaming,” And how is that working out for you so far?” Paige taunted, her voice a bitter. “Why did you come here in the first place?” I asked, cur
Alpha Jacob’s POV Alpha Peter and I stood “Alpha Peter,” I began, “We can’t afford to wait any longer. Our pack is under attack, and every moment we hesitate, our enemies grow bolder. I’m sure you also miss being at your pack. Instead of waiting for rogues to enter and attack our pack, I’ll go and seek them out wherever they’re hiding.” Alpha Peter’s gaze narrowed, his voice skeptical. “And what of Claire?” he pressed, “Are you avoiding her because of your fear that your wolf will act impulsively, so you’re avoiding her?” “Rogues attacking my pack demand immediate attention, Alpha Peter. I won’t let anything jeopardize their safety.” I told him. “Ignoring your mate and your son isn’t the solution, Alpha Jacob. They are part of you. You didn’t do right by them in the past and you’re still not doing right by them now.” “You’ve seen what my wolf would do if he came into contact with Claire,” I growled, “He would harm her, Alpha Peter. I won’t let that happen to her.” “You need to co
Deep in my chest, I felt a twinge of sadness as Mike snuggled closer to me, his small form quivering with the burden of missing his father, Alpha Jacob. It’s been four days now. I could feel that he was alive which was a plus I might be the one that ends up taking his life! Daniel was sitting close by, his presence providing a small friendly comfort amid Jacob’s sudden disappearance. However, his support was unable to compensate for Jacob’s absence. I had tons of emotions when Alpha Peter arrived. A part of me was appreciative he was here, thinking he could know where Alpha Jacob was. However, there was a part of me that harbored animosity towards him for stopping Alpha Jacob from marking me as his mate and stopping this whole dilemma. “Claire.” I was suddenly taken aback by Alpha Peter as he made his way inside. I faked a smile as I welcomed Alpha Peter, trying to hide the inner distress that was screaming within me. His reluctant attitude made me even more irritated. “Daniel,
Alpha Jacob’s POV As I led my pack warriors through the dense forest, my thoughts were consumed by an overwhelming desire for Claire and my son. With every step, and every rustle of the leaves, my mind drifted to images of her, her scent lingering in my senses, driving me wild with longing. My thoughts were completely absorbed by my desire to be with Claire, to feel her skin against mine, and to lose myself in her thighs, even though our mission to find rogues was urgent. There was an intense, almost painful, primal yearning coursing through my veins to take her, to make her mine. As we ventured deeper into the forest, our senses alert for any sign of rogue activity, we suddenly came across a group of five rogues lurking in the shadow. Without hesitation, I signaled to my pack warrior to prepare for an attack. With a fierce growl, I launched myself at the rogues, my movements swift and calculated. The element of surprise was on our side as we caught them off guard, our coordinate
Every touch I received from Alpha Peter as he picked me from the couch and took me to my mate’s bed caused waves of pain to shoot through me. My urgent need for my mate, Alpha Jacob, grew stronger by the second. Laid down on the bed, I couldn’t help but writhe in agony, my body trembling with the overwhelming need to be with Alpha Jacob. Each passing moment without him felt like an eternity of torment. As Alpha Peter left the room, closing the door behind him, I was left alone in the darkness, consumed by the unbearable ache of desire. With trembling hands, I began to rip apart my clothes from my body, the need for Alpha Jacob overwhelming every fiber of my being. My hands roamed over my body needily, seeking solace in the touch that only Alpha Jacob could provide. I wanted him to fuck me and to make love to me. As I lay in bed, the eat pulsating through me, I couldn’t hold back any longer. My fingers found their way to my throbbing core, desperate for relief in Jacob’s absence.
My eyes fluttered open, greeted by the soft morning light filtering through the curtains. A sense of calm and well-being washed over me as I stretched leisurely in bed. I hadn’t felt this weightless in a long time. The events of the previous night played through my mind, and a secret smile tugged at the corners of my lips. I was officially mated to my Alpha Jacob, bound to him in a way that transcended mere words. The thought filled me with a sense of warmth and belonging that I had never known before. But as I looked beside me and saw the empty bed, a pang of annoyance shot through me. Jacob was nowhere to be found, and the absence of his presence left a hollow ache in my chest. Pushing aside the sheet, I took note of the oversized shirt I was wearing-Jacob’s shirt. His scent enveloped me, stronger now that we were mated, I loved it. Feeling excited and shy, I approached the mirror to check my mark. My fingers grazed the spot on my neck where Jacob had claimed me as his own, and
I dried off as I emerged from the shower, I was overcome with excitement about the evening that remained ahead. My eyes fell on the bed, where a stunning and lovely dress awaited me. I was astounded by what I saw and was unable to cease admiring its beauty. Jacob had chosen it specifically for me; it was a thoughtful gesture that warmed my heart. Running my fingers over the cloth, I admired the delicate lace and intricate embroidery. It was perfect for the occasion-tonight was my acceptance ceremony as the Luna of the pack. I smiled as I slipped into the dress and could feel my excitement rising. I was looking at the mirror as I spun around, appreciating how the two of the silk flowed about me. As I descended the stairs, I found Jacob holding our son in his arms, the two of them engrossed. They turned to look at me as I entered the room, and a smile lit up Mike’s face. “Mumma, you look beautiful!” he exclaimed in his sweet baby voice, his eyes shining with adoration. My heart mel
Alpha Jacob’s POV I grabbed Claire’s hips and lifted her effortlessly onto my bed, planting her ass on the edge. I met her eyes and saw the hunger in them. With a grin, I leaned in eagerly, savoring the anticipation of tasting my prize. Gently parting her smooth thighs, I traced a slow path with my tongue from her entrance to her clit, relishing the taste of her sweet nectar and the way she responded to my touch. Claire’s gasps and moans filled the air as I alternated between long, languid strokes and teasing flicks and swirls with the tip of my tongue. “Oh my God,” she moaned, her voice filled with pleasure. “That feels so good. Don’t stop,” she pleaded her words a desperate plea for more. I was going to drive her crazy with desire, and I had no intention of stopping. I inserted my fingers into her slippery core and felt her sweet embrace me as my tongue began its unrelenting assault on her clit. I elusive my finger and sought the one elusive spot that would push her over the edg
I looked down at my precious newborn twins, my heart swelling with fierce maternal love. Both Ethan and Aiden looked just like their father as with Mike. I felt a pang of jealousy seeing that I carried them for so long only for them to look like a replica of their father. Nonetheless, they were my bundle of joy. Aiden’s tiny rosebud lips twitched adorably as if he were dreaming of nursing. Before I could decide if he needed to eat, Jacob had already scooped him up. “He needs to eat,” my mate said, in that deep, authoritative voice that never failed to shiver me. I quirked an eyebrow at him, knowing fully well why he was so insistent. “Let the poor thing sleep a while longer,” I replied, trying and failing to sound nonchalant. We both knew Jacob loved few things more than watching me breastfeed our children. To him, it was primal more than mere nourishment. The act awakened an unmistakable hunger in his eyes that set my skin tingling with awareness. Sure enough, when Jacob placed A
Months later… My stomach tightened again with a powerful contraction, and I squeezed Jacob’s hand until my knuckles turned. Despite the searing pain, I shot him a withering glare. “You did this to me… again!” I growled through gritted teeth. Sweat beaded on my brow as the cresting wave finally subsided Jacob had the sense to look somewhat chagrined, through a proud gleam still danced in his eyes. “You’re bringing our children into this world, my mate. Our perfect little miracles.” “Easy for you to say,” I spat, leaning back against the propped clinic bed. “You don’t have to push two tiny werewolves out of your body!” As if on cue, another crushing contraction seized me. I clutched at the sheets, a feral cry of agony tearing from my throat. The healers bustled around urgently, offering words of encouragement that fell on deaf ears. “You’re doing so well, Claire,” Jacob murmured, smoothing the damp hair from my face. “Our family is almost here.” White-hot rage flashed through my
Within no time almost all our clothes were ripped off as we thrashed between heated kisses. His growls and the way he gripped my hair so tight just turned me on. “That’s right, Luna,” Jacob groaned as I left hot, open-mouthed kisses trailing down his ripped abs. feeling his muscles twitch under my lips was driving me wild. When I finally made it down to his thick, throbbing cock, I shot him a naughty grin before taking him into my mouth in one slick motion. The guttural moan he let out went, straight to my core. I got to work, swirling my tongue shamelessly and hallowing my cheeks to suck him even deeper. His fingers tightened in my hair as he struggled not to buck his hips. “Fuck, Claire… your mouth feels so damn good…” Hearing him cry out my name like that made me hum in satisfaction, the vibration driving him even wilder. His hips jerked wildly as he tried not to lose control completely. “You wicked vixen… you’ll be the death of me…” Hearing his moan, my lips parted before slow
It had been a full day since our forces arrived back at the pack’s territory, battered but victorious after the brutal confrontation with Alpha Damian’s rogues and packs. I stood beside Jacob as he addressed our assembled warriors and allies from Alpha Peter’s pack. My gaze drifted to Jacob, taking in the quiet power exuding from his stance. In his arms, he cradled Mike, our son squirming happily against his father’s chest. Jacob seemed to follow my train of thought. His eyes found mine for a lingering moment as he bounced Mike gently. Jacob stepped forward, Mike cradled securely in the crook of his arm. A hush fell over the assembled warriors as he raised his free hand for silence. When he spoke, he carried clearly across the crowd. “Today we bask in the glory of a triumph that was dearly bought.” His expression was ceremonious. “We have shed blood and lost zero souls because of our Luna and Nadia, the white witch, in defense of our home.” “But because of your unflinching dedica
Around us, the sounds of war seemed to fade into insignificance. There was only my world shattered into fragments, and Mia’s loathsome presence desecrating my anguish. But I needed to pay attention to my mate, just as I gathered my strength my strength to pour life into Jacob’s wolf form, the cold muzzle of a gun pressed against my temple-Mia’s hand holding the weapon steady. “Drop the corpse and step away from it, dear sister,” she hissed venomously. My heart shattered once more, but I carefully laid Jacob's body back on the blood-soaked ground and stood. Tears streamed down my cheeks as I met Mia’s cruel gaze. “Why are you doing this?” I asked, feeling pissed and angry. “Haven’t you already accomplished ruining me in the past?” Mia threw back her head in a fit of wicked laughter. When her eyes bored into one of pure venom and hatred. “Me? Ruin you? She spat the words like tasting something foul. “You’re the one who ruined our entire family!” “You’re the reason father ran away
“Are you sure about this, Nadia?” I asked the white witch hesitantly. “Jacob was adamant I stay away from the war.” Nadia fixed me with her piercing gaze. “Your mate needs you, Claire. I would not go against his wishes if the situation were not dire.” My chest tightened with dread and concern for Jacob, but I was determined. He had forbidden me from joining the battle, convinced I would be safer here. Yet Nadia’s solemn words rang with the weight of truth. Taking a steadying breath, I met Nadia’s eyes squarely. “I’m ready then. More than ready to help my mate and pack win this war.” I flexed my fingers, calling on the magic thrumming through my veins. “But how will we reach the battlefield undetected?” A mysterious smile curved Nadia’s lips. “The same way I managed to slip Paige out of Damian’s grasp when she required my assistance in escaping.” If they were overwhelmed, my power could turn the tide. Nadia right-my place was by their side, consequences be damned. “Let’s go,” I sta
Alpha Jacob’s POV I stood resolute beside Alpha Peter as our pack gathered around us. The warriors were clad for battle. We would eradicate this threat once and for all. My jaw clenched grimly. I had no qualms about the violence to come-it was necessary to keep our loved ones safe. My thoughts stayed with Claire and our son. Thanks to the powerful shield Claire had erected, no non-pack members could enter our territory. It would protect them absolutely from being caught up in the impending war. I was determined that Claire would remain behind this shield, no matter how capable she was. I didn’t want her anywhere near the carnage to come. Though her power could likely end the conflict swiftly, the risk was too great. No, I would ensure Claire and our child remained untouched by the battle, safe within the pack. My wolf snarled at the thought of them being endangered. There was a change of plans, we would leave tonight, and it would take at least three days to reach our destination.
I watched from the sidelines, a sleeping Mike bundled against my chest, as Jacob and Alpha Peter went over strategies with the warriors for tomorrow’s battle. My heart clenched just thinking of my mate leading the pack into war for the first time. What if I lost him out there? The thought caused my breath to hitch. I pulled Mike closer, cradling my still-flat stomach with my free hand. Our twins were newly conceived, just starting to take shape inside me. What if I lost them too? He must have sensed my distress because Jacob looked up and met my worried gaze from across the field. Leaving the strategy session, he quickly crossed over to the field until he stood before me. His palm cupped my cheek. “I will return to you, my Luna,” he murmured intensely. His eyes flickered down to my abdomen before looking back at mine. “All of you. Have faith.” I managed a small nod, leaning into his touch. Though I trusted his strength, the fear still gnawed sharply with our growing family at sta
I took a deep, steadying breath as I watched Mike playing contentedly in the living area of our den, a small, fond smile tugged at the corners of my mouth as Mike let out a bright peal of laughter. “Mike? Can you come here for a moment, my sunshine? Mama has something important to share with you.” I patted the space next to me, unable to stop my smile from widening as Mike immediately snuggled against my side. I dropped a tender kiss on Mike’s forehead. He hummed contentedly at my touch, those striking emerald eyes watching me with rapt attention. “Did I do something Mumma?” he asked suddenly, small brow furrowing adorably. “No, my little star, you’re not in any trouble this time,” I assured him. With a smile, I cradled my son close and murmured, “How would you feel about becoming a big brother, my heart? Because very soon… you’re going to have a new baby sibling.” It took a heartbeat for Mike’s eyes to go wide in realization. Then, before I could even register his reaction furt
