It turned out I did not have to resort to flipping off the power and plunging the place in darkness to get pissed off college dude to leave. He emerged from the bathroom, packed up his shit, demanded the name of my manager so he could call and get me fired, before he took off. I did not tell him I also was the manager and the owner, just gave him my nickname, and told him to have a good night. I was sure he had had other plans of harassment in mind for me, but when he locked eyes with the Alpha who stood near me watching him hawklike, Meth Seth hightailed it out of here real quick.

Finally, alone at last. And I wasn’t taking any chances for further interruptions for a while, as I locked the door and flipped the neon open sign off. I planned to be a good, responsible business owner and open back up in time for the six a.m. rush. But that gave me ninety minutes to have the Alpha all to myself. And I planned to do a whole lot more than just talking and make the most of our time.

    Well tonight certainly had not gone the way I planned. I wished I could say I had only offered myself up in Lily’s place because it was the right thing to do, and I was a good person. But my decision was not only from a selfless place, but it was also emotional manipulation to get what I wanted from Alpha Grey. A surefire way to get him to choose me for his mate, because there wasn’t anything he wouldn’t do for his sister. I really was going to burn in hell or spend my afterlife chained in iron and silver. He breathed in deep, and his brows furrowed, “You don’t have to do that Onie. Though I appreciate the offer. This isn’t your problem to fix. And I know how much you value your independence.” But I valued my freedom and revenge against the dark Alpha more. I planned to be Alpha Grey’s mate in name only, and well in the naughty fun parts, as I had no intentions of leaving my home or actually bearing his cub. I would keep him at bay until I no longer needed to keep up the ruse of bei

    There were two wolf customs when it came to either choosing a mate or accepting a true mating bond. The male wolf claimed his mate by marking her with his bite, often on the neck, and they consummated their bond by the physical joining of their bodies. Some packs even had a tradition of the she-wolf also marking her mate in return, but the wolves on either side of this mountain did not do that as far as I knew. While Timberland seemed less oppressive of their females, it was clear they were not as progressive as packs that treated their females more equally with a shared marking. The claiming and the joining could be done at separate times or together, there were no hard and fast rules for it, but the claiming typically came first to my knowledge among the more brutish packs. Females could be claimed without their consent, and even violated too, both of which had happened to me by the two dark wolves that had invaded my life. But at least Alpha Roam had not violated me in the other w

    After laughing in Alpha Grey’s face over a serious matter, I tried to go on some damage control, and hoped I hadn’t fucked this up too badly already. This romantic stuff was not one of my strong suits and I was way out of practice. I hadn’t tried to woo a male in ages. Most of them were perfectly happy with screwing me and skipping out on the dinner and roses beforehand, or the morning after breakfast, which was just the way I liked it. I could already tell I would have to play things differently with this one. He wasn’t only after my vagina. This felt more like dating than I cared to admit. This felt like more. Things had been much easier with the dark wolf. At least his body had sensed the only thing I had wanted from him, and I had taken it. Then he had to go and ruin it all by his stupid fucking claim on me. We had started a good thing and could have continued to fuck like wild animals for a while longer if he hadn’t pulled his Alpha male bullshit. But it was too late to turn ba

    I could not remember the last time I had been treated so tenderly and with so much respect by a man before and during getting intimate. Even with the only two serious boyfriends, I had Brent and Daniel, before my stepbeast made my life a living hell and turned me into the bitter, cynical creature I was today, it had never been like this. Sex between Daniel and I had been less bumbling and awkward than with Brent, after some experiences we both had under our belts at the ripe old age of eighteen, but he had never asked permission to kiss me, to touch me, or even asked what my boundaries were like Grey just had. Of course, that was a lifetime ago, five years was an eternity to me, I was older, wiser, and knew what I liked and what I didn’t now. And that was back before I had been raped by the wolf who murdered the person I had loved most in this world. I was a different person now, changed, and not all for the better. Sometimes, I still mourned the loss of that vibrant, happy and caref

    So like the good little mate I was, I shut my mouth, relaxed back against the counter, and allowed my mate to taste me between my legs. True to his word, my grey wolf did not devour me like the dark wolf had, but I was fucking savored. Like no inch of me had gone untasted and none of my honey had gone uneaten. I was a quivering mess in the best way only seconds in, using all my will power to hold off going over the edge again so quickly. Because I also wanted to savor every moment of his needy tongue against my swollen, throbbing pussy. Grey’s tongue was an enigma. It had been so soft against the skin of my throat, but now against my innermost folds, it was rough, only adding to my pleasure from the increased friction. Not even the dark wolf’s tongue had been quite so course even when he had lashed me all over my body with it, but my chosen mate’s tongue was textured like a gift from The Moon above. His first lick was languid, like we had all the time in the world and this night w

    My mate laughed against my lips, temporarily breaking our kiss, and I gave no apologies for ruining his shirt or forgetting my place as a docile she-wolf. I took great liberties roaming his bare skin, all the while, our mouths continued to move together like our bodies did. With his wolf a bit in control, the pace of his cock within me, was faster than the way he had touched and tasted me before, but his thrusts still had no brutality behind them. The plunge of his hips to meet mine, was more frantic than violent, as if he was in a hurry to be in me and hated when our bodies parted for even seconds. Our tongues danced together rather than dueled. I liked the feel of him in me, equally as much, pushing my hips into his whenever he pulled out of me, urging him to enter again and again, to make me whole. I could already feel my next climax building fast and furious, our kisses grew more desperate and hungry to match the pace of his hips into me. I savored his mouth just as he had mine

    My mate tasted of salt and spice, the perfect combination. I moaned at the first decadent taste of him on my tongue. My greedy mouth sucked up every bead of his warm juices that leaked from his tip. I could tell he was not going to last long, his cock already pulsating beneath my tongue as I licked the length of him from tip to balls, then back down again. I enclosed my mouth around his cock once more and took him as deeply as I could down my throat. I relaxed my muscles and jaw, so I could take even more of him in. I worked him in and out, my teeth grazing the underside of his shaft on my fourth pass of his impressive length. He grunted when I sucked him in harder and my tongue flicked against his tip. I traced his happy place with a swirl of my tongue round and round, until the grey wolf was panting and squirming against my tongue. My Alpha did not try and take control, to shove himself into me, or grab the back of my neck to hold me in place like some of the males I had known in

    Dinner was an awkward affair, for more reasons than one. Lily kept looking between her brother and me, turning beet red and giggling, in-between telling him off for something he said to her mate. Grey was being a typical protective big brother and grilling his sister’s mate about the young beta’s werewolf politics and views on she-wolfs. I had shooed them all from the kitchen and refused help, as I worked better and faster alone, but that had opened the door for the grey wolf’s interrogation and sizing up Randon. There was also the matter of me thinking up a way to get my new mate out of my hair for the night which would be tricky. I didn’t want to make it obvious I was trying to get rid of him on the night of the full Moon either as that would be hella suspicious. Most newly bonded mates would jump at the chance to run together in their wolfskin beneath the full Moon, side by side. It was the natural thing to do. But I was not a normal wolf and I could not have Grey on my land unti

    A burst of rage-fueled adrenaline coursed through my veins, giving me a second wind. I used my burst of strength to push myself off the tree, to stand tall, before I grabbed the shovel and began to dig furiously. Dirt and bits of roots and moss flung through the air as I took my frustrations out on the Earth. I would not greet the dark alpha like an obedient little mate eagerly awaiting his return. We would face each other as enemies, and he would stay on his side of the mountain or face the consequences. Grey was smart enough to get out of my way. The younger alpha decided to face his enemy on equal footing, wolf to wolf, as he merged with his animal once more. The human part of me had too much to say to the brute to shift, and my communication while in my fur would not be adequate unless he set foot onto my land. Then my literal claws and teeth would come out and I would show him no mercy.It did not take wolf senses to know when the dark one prowled near the boundary. The heavy ma

    My eyes, the color of a muddy river like that of my father’s, locked onto the Alpha’s, not backing down, the challenge there, daring him to take it. I steeled my spine and my nerves, and I did not even let my wolf come through, because I had the power inside me, and I did not need to flash her rage, her pain, to let my mate know I was a dangerous predator not to be messed with.“Get out of my way, Grey. Or I will make you.”My voice had stayed calm and was more deadly than had it been dripping with aggression. Like a snake, waiting and watching for the need to strike.He let out a breath that sounded painful to exhale, “At least let me help you then.”So, his pack could suffer the consequences. Even the sting of his betrayal was not enough to let me agree to allow him to antagonize his enemy by disrespecting their dead. Wolves of Rocky’s status among the pack were sent off with honor to their place in the sky to spend eternity near their creator. It would be a grave insult to the crea

    I stayed in that cabin with my she-wolf and her mate no matter how it turned my stomach and I had to choke down the vomit. No matter how my eyes stung while my mask cracked, I had to shut them a time or two to keep from screaming. The sound of that bone drill burrowing into my beta’s skull and Lily’s cries would haunt me for the rest of my life. I forced myself to bear it because I was their Luna, and my discomfort did not matter. What I wanted or needed no longer mattered. The scent of Rand’s blood was still heavy in the air, even after the healer and his mate had washed him clean again and had disposed of the bloody towels and crimson colored water. A clean bandage shrouded his head, and soon more joined along his bruised and broken body. Raven even stitched the worst wounds closed to help them heal faster. I wondered if I would always smell his wolfblood in here from now on as if it had soaked into the wood permanently. After Raven had cleaned and gathered her supplies, gave the

    Grey did not argue, though he looked torn wanting to help, while the females carried the young beta inside the hunting cabin as gently as possible. Rand did not cry out in pain, which was not a good thing, he was limp and blood spattered in our arms. We laid him atop the bed, not giving a damn about staining the sheets. I could hear my mate pacing outside, though he respected my orders and did not set foot inside. Me slamming the door roughly behind us, gave the wolf the hint as well, that he was not welcomed. The Alpha of Timberlands would be off my land entirely soon enough, which was for the best because at the moment, I felt particularly violent towards him, now that the initial sting of hurt was waning, the rage was coming through strong. The only male I wanted to hurt more than Grey right now, was that fucking brute who I fully intended to get my pound of flesh from. The dark wolf was nothing but a lying bastard whom I had been a fool to trust his word. Animals had no honor. R

    As soon as my Alpha mate’s boots hit the dirt, he rushed to me, his keen grey eyes assessing me from head to toe. I could see the rush of emotions that crossed his handsome face, worry, fear, anger, sympathy, regret, guilt. His hands gripped my shoulders gently to still me for a more intense inspection as I was shaking and jittery like I had just drunk ten energy drinks. When he noticed my torn-up arm, the scent of an enemy wolf still clinging to my skin, then his sister, bloody and dazed, holding onto her blood spattered and still mate, his wolf slipped through as he growled. I knew Grey’s aggression was not aimed at me. His eyes blazed when they landed on the dead wolf, naked, and minus a skull, with most of his brain matter, tainting my land.“I’m going to bury him in fucking silver chains,” he snarled, “and then I’m going to challenge his oath breaking, lying son of a bitch Alpha! A wolf with no honor has no place on this Earth!”My heart bashed into my ribs for an entirely differ

    The massive hell-beast closed the gap between my fallen beta, his loyal mate, and I, in only a few leaps. My she-wolf howled in anguish at not protecting her mate or her Luna. Tears of physical pain no longer soaked my cheeks, now replaced by tears of regret and failure, of helplessness. I did not cry tears for myself in what was likely my last seconds of life.His dark form was upon me before I could even fire off another round. Before I could try and connect to the Earth beneath me and drawl strength to help fight this monster from under the mountain. My other regrets flashed before my eyes as time seemed to slow. I had never even told Grey I loved him. Or told Roam I did not always like him, but I did not hate him.I had not spoken to my cousin Jeanette in over a week and would never meet her boyfriend. I had not visited my paternal grandparent’s in their nursing home when I could have made that drive in six hours or flown in, in the two years it’d been since my bastard uncles had

    I knew that I covered more ground quicker in my wolf form, and I could even carry the shotgun in my mouth, but I was not ready to shift just yet. I dashed through the trees like a mad woman, pushing back branches with ease, and navigating roots that would have tripped me up in the past, but with my wolf simmering at the surface, she led me her coordination, some of her agile speed, her heightened senses. And kick ass night vision. I should have been letting her out more all along.There was the slim chance it was a nomadic wolf who had crossed onto my packlands, still thinking it was neutral ground. But I had remarked all the boundaries of my territory only a few days ago with my scent, and unless the wolf was truly feral, or old and senile, or had no sense of smell, it was not an accident this male had trespassed onto my land. And when I got closer to his earthy scent, and I caught traces of sulfur from his fur, I knew exactly where the bastard had come from. The wolves from the cave

    I thanked Monique for staying over, and she was just glad I had not been murdered. That was her actual words to me, because I had never been late to my shift before, and she too, liked to listen to true crime podcasts to help her unwind at night. Her imagination had been getting the best of her, and she had already been putting together a list of likely suspects in her head. Top of the list was a creepy once regular who had tried to stalk me post a hookup two years back, after I had made it clear there’d be no repeat performance.I laughed at that one, because I had forgotten about him, last thing I knew he had steered clear of me and Mountaintop after I threatened to tell his fiancée. And after I showed him my shot gun. I had questionable morals, but fucking men with wives or girlfriends, had never been my thing. Had I known about said fiancée before I let him fuck me in his truck after my shift, I would have chosen another dick to ride instead. After I had already been stalked and h

    With my mates close by, their familiar earthy scents like an aphrodisiac that made me wet between the knees, I let out a contented sigh. I was sprawled out between my Alphas, naked and unbothered, staring up at the night sky, the stars had also come back out after the storm, and it was now the witching hour. “Holy shit!” I shot up like the forest bed had overheated beneath me, “I’m late for work.” Grey was on my left, and he sat up as I did. His thick hair was messy, though I was not the cause of it this time. Traces of moisture still adorned his tight body and tempted me greatly to follow the trails with my tongue. I shook off my lust, though it was not easy to do, and got to my feet. Roam remained spread out arrogantly on the grass, hands behind his rain kissed hair, his proud cock jutting out without shame. “Take the night off Rabbit. Besides I have yet to punish you for your disobedience, Luna.” That wicked glint in my dark mate’s eye promised that I would likely enjoy his pun
