Chosen Mates, Stolen Fates Chapter 1
PerrinEvery curve of her was supple and warm, wanting to be touched. But every time my hands stroked her–found their way around her hips, up to her breasts; she peeled them off of her. Gently, but firm. She wanted my hands above my head where I couldn’t touch her.It was a game, and one that I was totally down to play. And it was incredibly hot, watching her naked body cover my own, her breasts trailing along my abdomen. I felt my cock pressed against her smooth belly as she roved over me, eager for attention. But she took her time, her lips were wet against my skin, trailing fire with an intensity that filled my blood.“Lo,” I moaned, as she kissed my hip bones, her tongue forming a hot trail on my blazing skin. But in the next moment, she had me in her mouth. I was already near the brink, and the feel of her to

PerrinMy father, Mark, and Kira listened intently as I played back the recording of my conversation with Marge. When it stopped, they sat in silence, considering what they had heard.Mark broke the silence. “Three, at least?”“Let’s start with three,” my father said, pressing his palms together. “We don’t need to go looking for more than that, at least to start.”“Isn’t three bad enough?” Kira said, gawking. “And potentially a fourth that couldn’t be there?”“You can’t forget what Gowan had said,” I offered. “It could have been an Ididorahd, all things considered.”“I don’t thi

Because you believe spending time in a pack archive is exciting, lol

Perrin“Can I see Jack?”“He’s not awake yet,” sighed Deidre. She looked troubled about that. She had been walking me back to the front lobby.“I don’t care.” It was the truth. Throughout everything, Jack had been there when it had mattered. He helped us narrow down where to find Kira, covered for me after the announcement ceremony with the press, and above all else, he forgave me for not believing in him or expressing any confidence that he was worthy of being my Beta.“Right this way,” she said, leading me down another series of halls, then stopped short in front of a door. “Can you find your way back on your own?” She glanced at her watch. “I have a call in ten minutes.”

PerrinMy phone buzzed loudly in my pocket as I closed Jack’s door behind me.KIRA: Are you still here? Just got done with my meeting.PERRIN: Actually, yes, I was going to check in on Thomas.KIRA: Can I come with? He’s totally hot.PERRIN: This is pack business, not a social call.KIRA: If he’s wearing one of those hospital gowns maybe I can get a peek.I rolled my eyes. Her text followed with a bunch of glancing eyeball emojis.PERRIN: I’m serious.KIRA: Ok ok fine. What room number?I debated giving it to her, but my phone pinged again.KIRA: I’ll keep it in my pants, I promise.PERRIN: B

Perrin“Really?” I grabbed Kira by the arm and swung her around in the hallway. “REALLY?”“Like I said. Total man candy.”I closed my eyes, breathing hard. “Kira, this isn’t some type of joke.”“I don’t take it as one. My sex life is serious business and–”“BOUNDARIES!” I said, my own voice slightly choked.She slapped a hand on my back. “Perrin, I know you keep saying that, but how am I supposed to be your Beta and you my Alpha if you don’t know what’s on my mind?”I sighed, mulling over my options. Maybe Mark. Or Cynthia? Definitely Cynt

PerrinShaking my head and clearing it, I waited a few minutes, then traced Kira’s footsteps towards the lobby. Lorrie pointed me down yet another hallway towards my last visit. A familiar silhouette stood outside of the room, peering through the observation glass.“What are you doing here?” I asked in surprise.Seth grunted in response, his arms folded protectively across his chest. He was usually good natured, but this afternoon he looked… almost troubled.“Gowan,” he said, as if that was all the response he needed.“Really? I came to see him myself.”Another grunt. Then, “Mark told me. Your dad and Mark, I mean. About the…” he raise

Perrin“Hey there, beautiful!”She was wearing sunglasses, outside in some sunny courtyard. Then sun was setting though, and her skin practically glowed in the dusk of early evening.“Hey handsome,” she said, her smile wide and genuine. My heart practically leapt at the sight of her.“How was your day?”She tucked a stray piece of hair behind her ear and adjusted the phone, which I believed to be sitting on some type of table in front of her. “Busy. Between the late flight and the early start, I’m pooped.” She went on to tell me about her day, how she and Gia had gone out to breakfast after her mother had left a note on the counter for her, saying that she’d be gone for the day.

Deidre“How about this?”Mistra shakes her head, the pink dress I’m holding not doing it for her. Of course it wouldn’t. Mistra only wears dark and… darker. Except for the day she came back from vacation. From ‘visiting her son.’ Here. In Texas.“How about this?” This dress is darker, with a slit up to the thigh that should make any she-wolf her age think twice.“Too revealing,” she dismisses it. The hangers clank loudly on the rack as she disapproves of yet another rack of options.“Mistra?” The clacking plastic stills in response. “You wore pink when you came back from Texas. You think I didn’t notice?”A considering pause follows, then, “I was in a different mood, then.”“Oh?”“Yes. It was… the fresh air.”“So logic would dictate the color would suit you now as well, wouldn’t it?”Another pause. “I suppose.”I thrust my arms around the corner of the clothing rack, holding the original pink once again. She grabs it reluctantly and holds it up to her chin in front of a full-length mi

Perrin The sound of my camera phone clicks and I don’t bother checking it before sending it to Lo. Then I switch shirts, and send another. PERRIN: Blue or green? LO: Either. They each bring out one of your eyes. LO: Goddess you look good. Before I can type a response, a video call from Lo pops up on the screen. I can tell based on the angle of the camera that she’s propped me up against a glass on Dina’s counter in the kitchen. “Hey there, beautiful.” Beautiful doesn’t do her justice, even mid-meal. Her eyes are bright and full of laughter, as if she’d just been joking with Dina. She munches on a carrot stick, grinning. “You know it’s not fair for you to just send me pictures like that.” She lowers her voice. “When you know I really want the other kind of picture.” I laugh, angling the camera so she can see my bare chest. “Gross,” I hear a mutter somewhere off-camera. “I’m not going to be attacked while I’m having lunch, Jack. You can be excused for ten.” “Thank Goddess.” Ja

Deidre “Fontaine?” I flick through my mental list of scholars. Nothing registers. “Well, if he’s not a medical scientist or researcher, I probably wouldn’t have heard of him.” Mark grunts, throwing his phone down next to his lunch plate. “I’ve got nothing. The internet is supposed to be helpful. All I have are a bunch of university papers and a bunch of research I can’t make heads or tales of.” “Ah yes. My husband’s Beta, ever the academic,” I smile over the brim of my cup. “Quit it,” Jason growls, absorbed in his own phone screen. “Janas is keeping tabs on him, but other than going back to the infirmary, he hasn’t done much apart from call a taxi to take him to a restaurant.” Mark blinks. “A restaurant?” “Yes,” I quip. “The social environment in which people elect to eat and enjoy one another’s company–not that you’ve been to one in the last ten years.” “Seriously?” Jason snaps, head swiveling between Mark and I. “This is the last thing we need.” “A restaurant is not a securit

Kira The tour was incredibly boring. Ben was professional and polite, wandering at a pace that Lo could keep up with, without getting breathless and being able to contribute to the conversation. It annoyed me how courteous he was. Jack spent most of the tour looking around inconspicuously for all of the cameras, finding their hidden reflective lenses in the niches of wood and leather around the Archives. From what I could tell, he’d found twenty-six of thirty. A flashing, toothy smile catches on another camera. Fine. Twenty-seven. They were just making the far side of the stacks, near the stairway that led down to the pack Archives, when Sirius became incredibly more interested. “And what are these?” He asked pointedly, looking at the stairs and the ropes that separated them off from prying visitors. “Ah. The Royal Archives of the Aperture Pack,” Ben said admiringly. “Home of our pack lineage, royal birth and marriage documents, copies of temple ceremony proceedings, and histori
Chosen Mates, Stolen Fates Chapter 156
Kira I watched through the screen as Lo’s baby bump proceeded the rest of her into the frame, extending her hand to greet Ben’s. It was more formal than I’d ever seen either of them interact; but I recognized the show. It was all about appearances. Impressing this scholar. A moment later Sirius eased into the frame, his height nearly blocking out all of Lo except her belly, his own graceful hand extending to capture Ben’s as they exchanged greetings. “Good morning, Professor–?” Ben opened warmly. Smooth. And good. Since I still had no idea what this guy’s last name has to do a thorough background check. I looked at my legal pad, tapping my pen on the blank page. Mark was clear with his instructions, and so far I wasn’t doing very well. “Oh! Just Sirius, please. No need for formalities.” Lo stepped out from behind Sirius, her face beaming with that pregnant glow of hers, despite the gray-scale of the monitor. “Sirius, this is Benjamin, the scholar and historian I was telling you

Kira Janas walked me through my controls. Eight screens, two keyboards, something that looked like an old-school joystick, and enough cords and plugs to cover the majority of the Luna’s office. I wondered what she’d think of it now; it’s usually pristine surfaces now covered in a jungle of electrical equipment. “Got that?” Janas said for nearly the seventh time. “Yes,” I muttered, sitting down in the seat behind the Luna’s desk. It was the last place I ever thought I’d sit, and shifted uneasily as I put down my crutches. The ruse was still necessary in case anyone came in here with Cynthia while I was working. I had felt the glances as Janas wheeled me in this afternoon, crutches across my lap as we passed the busy lobby of the pack house. Many offered greetings and wishes for a speedy recovery, all genuine. It made my back stiffen at the deception. I made a mental note to talk to Perrin about just how different his legacy was going to be from his father’s… and despite my own sel

BenMy alarm goes off, and I don’t even want to reach for my phone.It’d be great to stop the two-day hangover that plagues me. But something else entirely when I’ll look at my screen and realize Kira hasn’t called me back. Or texted.Not like she would.I roll over, swatting blindly at my bedside table until my phone drops onto the floor, vibrating and jittering across the cheap carpet like some strange bug.I test my eyes, flickering them open against my ceiling.Well. At least my hangover is gone today. I exhale. I’d rather have the pain of that hangover instead of the anger I feel at myself. Not just anger.Shame. Annoyance.And the worst part? The self-pity.I’ve drowned in the feelings of the last few days, addicted to the self-sabotage of not eating, not consuming anything and not trusting myself. I’ve been sober for years. And doing this now? Giving into temptation? I want to blame my thesis. My stupid failed research. I want to just burn all of it to Hell and back. But gnawi

Perrin“Holy shit.”Mark softly whistles behind me, unnerved at the site of it as we drive in. The Chiyad training facilities is enormous. No. gigantic. Whichever one is bigger.“This is where Ethan’s been training,” I say unnecessarily, awed at the outside of it. I wondered if Ethan could escape being the favorite for the Beta championship by just having access to state-of-the-art facilities. Mark doesn’t answer, but drives to a series of parking spots on the side of the building. “I know Ethan’s been working hard,” I go on as we get out of the car. “And Justin had only mentioned they were working on getting their facility renovation underway. Is this the before or after? They couldn’t have done all of this in just a few months.”Mark’s neck cranes to look up the side of the building. “I don’t know.”We walk into the large side entrance, automatic doors whooshing in around us with crisp, air-conditioned coolness. I blink twice as a discreet whirring sounds, a scanning of our bodies

KiraI set the phone down on the bedside table, pulling my blankets over me at the chill that had nothing to do with the temperature of my room.What the hell?But I couldn’t help but smirk. My gut instinct about the visiting wolf hadn’t been totally off. Something hadn’t been right about Sirius. Not wrong, per se… but definitely not normal. Were all European wolves that way? And how Mark had discovered our pack had a visitor less than twelve hours after they’d left? I didn’t know. Some type of Beta secret perhaps. He’d tell me in time. I was beginning to realize just how much I had to learn.I frowned, knowing Royhill would likely come pick me up in the morning. I stared at the clock. It was way past my bedtime. Not that I cared. I scratched at the stupid fake brace on my leg.On the positive side, apparently hiding away in the Luna’s office was going to be exactly what I was up to, the joke made earlier to Jesamine in jest or not. And sooner than I had anticipated; Naineeve was her
