Tatum-
I couldn’t give her what she wanted. I had thought long and hard about letting her help me, but the more I thought about it the more I just couldn’t. I didn’t want to lose her. If my contact did find them, then it was just a matter of time before I would have to leave. She wasn’t ready, I wasn’t sure if I could get her ready in time.
Closing the door, I walked towards her until I was standing directly in front of her. She was looking at me with such stubbornness, that it was actually cute. Her big blue eyes were daring me to tell her no again. Reaching behind her, I set the box down.
When I pulled my hand back, I reached up to cup her cheek. Even through all the stubbornness of hers, she still leaned into my touch. I could see the trust she was giving me, which made this even harder. I expected her to pull away from me or something, I didn’t expect her to lean into my hand and wrap her fingers around my wrist.

Tatum-As much as I wanted to keep kissing her, I knew if I didn’t stop now, I probably wouldn’t be able to. Axel was urging me to set her on the table and claim her right now. It was very tempting. Especially with her legs wrapped around me and her dress riding up to her upper thighs.Setting her down on the floor, it took more effort than I had just to break the kiss. I had to take a step back and put a bit of distance between us, otherwise, I was going to say the hell with it and not stop. It wasn’t like she seemed to care if I continued, I just couldn’t do her like that without knowing she was giving full consent.“Why did you stop?” She breathed out.“Because if I didn’t, I was about to claim you and I don’t know if you would have been okay with it or not.”“Oh.” She looked down at her dress and smoothed it out, before looking back up at me. “Are you mad at me for pu
Brooklyn-That was such a long time ago. All this time he has been looking out for me. The thing is, I didn’t know much at all. All this time I just thought he was being a jerk, only to find out that he was stepping up to fight my battles for me when I couldn’t.I was at a war within myself to even know what to say. What more did I not know that he has been doing? I felt like if I was going to know, I needed to know in moderation and not all at once. Already I was feeling overwhelmed with everything. I still didn’t even know how I was supposed to act around him.The dynamics of our relationship has changed so much that I didn’t know what to do. I have seen couples before, each of them acting in different ways. I knew some that would not be very nice to each other and rather demanding, while others were all over each other, barely coming up to breathe. There were also some that you couldn’t even tell they were mated.Maybe I w
Tatum-Listening to Brook’s plan for her project, I was stunned. She was absolutely amazing. To face everything, she has and wants to help others was a strength I haven’t seen in a long time, if ever. Here I was three years after losing my mate and I just let the world pass me by and kept everyone as far away as possible.I could learn a lot from her. Instead of worrying about how wronged, she has been in her life, she was pushing through and using her pain to help others. Looking at her from across the table, she kept telling me about her plan. Her face lit up as she spoke, at that moment, she looked as if she was glowing.I have always thought of her as beautiful, but this was more than just beauty. I not only saw the way she was excited, I felt it as well. If the council didn’t approve it, I will overthrow them and have it approved. There were a few flaws in her plan, but nothing major.If there were even remotely a chance, we found o
Brooklyn-When he stopped, I thought maybe I did something wrong. I did as he asked and I let Skye out, she was currently buzzing with excitement and ecstasy right now. The moment I let her out she had started yelling at me that I better not have screwed things up, but then stopped when she realized what was going on.“Did I do something wrong?” I asked, sitting up on my elbows to look at him.“Not at all, love. I was just thinking of how amazing you are.”“Oh.” I breathed out, sitting up fully. “Uh, could I try something?”“What did you have in mind?” He asked, sitting back on his heels.“Well, you have been going down there and pleasuring me, more than once. Yet I haven’t done anything for you. Could I maybe try to do it for you?”Something passed over his features and I watched as his eyes nearly glazed over and his jaw clenched. There was something in th
Tatum-She was so tight, it was taking everything I had to control myself. I wanted it to be slow and not rush things. This was the first time I have been inside of her and I wanted it to last as long as possible. It has been a long time since I have wanted to take my time with a female.She was beyond anything I could have imagined. The fantasies I had about her paled in comparison. Sliding in and out of her, I loved every second of it. I was fully prepared to be patient with her and not rush it. I can’t remember a time I have ever comforted someone when I was inside of them.She wasn’t the first virgin I have been with, but there was just something different about her. She was very special and I don’t think it has anything to do with her father. She was obviously blessed by the Moon Goddess. That is the only thing I could think of.Otherwise, I wouldn’t care as much as I do about her care. Even with every female I have been with,
Brooklyn-When I woke up the next morning, I was still feeling great. It was as if I woke up in the clouds. Still wrapped up in Tate’s arms, he was still sleeping. Not wanting to wake him, I gently moved away from him. I paused a few times when I thought I disturbed his sleep.After seeing he still wasn’t waking up, I slipped out of bed. Walking on the tips of my toes, I pulled out a pair of jeans and a tank top out of the closet. Leaving the room, I softly closed the door and headed into the bathroom.It didn’t take long for me to get my shower over with and dressed. I wanted to make it as quickly as possible so I could get breakfast started. Yesterday I had been surprised with breakfast, this time I wanted to do it for him.Moving around the kitchen, careful not to bang pans around, I found myself smiling. This was very different from growing up where I had to sneak around the kitchen just so I didn’t wake anyone. Now it was rath
I'm sorry everyone that I haven't updated recently. I've been on vacation and internet has been spotty. Will be headed home soon and will update multiple chapters. Thank you everyone for being patient and I promise to make it up to you. I've still been writing. Just need to get home to upload them. Also I wanted to apologize for taking so long to update. My kid had been down with covid so things have been crazy lately. He is better now thankfully. He is only four so it's been a struggle. I promise to work harder to make up for my lack of updates and hurry up and finish the book.
Just wanted to update and let you all know I am so sorry with not giving you an update sooner. Things are back to normal and I am working on updating the next chapter today. I'm going to be updating regularly again and wanted to thank you all for your patience and support. I will be working hard to make up for the lack of updating. I am now back home, both my kid and I are back to good health and my work schedule has been cleared so I can focus on writing full time. Thank you all again for sticking with me through my difficult time.
Brooklyn-“Are you okay in there?” I heard Tate ask from just outside the bathroom door.For probably the fifth time in the past couple of days since Tate woke up, I have been hovering over the toilet. It was like I had this urge to throw up, but nothing would happen. I couldn’t even make myself throw up, even when I tried.I don’t know what was going on, all I knew is I felt miserable. Even thinking about food made me sick to my stomach. Yet when I did eat, it was as if I was starved or something. This completely sucked and I just wanted it to be over.“I don’t know.” I answered honestly.The doorknob shook, but I was thankful I at least had half the mind to lock it. The last thing I wanted was for Tate or anyone for that matter to see me like this. As far as I knew werewolves didn’t get sick in the same way humans did, but after doing some research on the computer, I was sure that maybe I had the st
Brooklyn- As soon as I felt his mouth, I nearly orgasmed at the very second. It has been far too long since I have had felt so much pleasure from him. Until he showed me the true meaning of desire, I had been perfectly fine, now it was as if I craved his touch every second of every day. My head fell back as he licked and sucked at my clit. My mind practically turned to mush as he did so, making it nearly impossible to form a sensible thought. Just when I thought I could take as much as I possibly could, he pulled my hips towards him until I was right on the edge of the counter. Out of pure reflex alone, I moved my hands to grab the edge of the counter and hold on as if my life depended on it. He lifted one of my legs and placed it over his shoulder, giving me just a bit more balance. Or at least I thought that was his intention until I felt his tongue slide from my clit and move down until it reached my entrance. In one fluid motion, he thrust his ton
Tatum-I could tell something was bothering Brook, but I couldn’t tell what it was. As much as I wanted to press on it, I kept my mouth shut. The way she nibbled on her bottom lip made me think whatever was going on in her head, she needed to come to terms with on her own time and decide if she wanted to tell me.Patiently I waited, leaning up against the kitchen counter, while she began to pace in the kitchen. I had thought maybe I could get in a shower and then take her to bed to have my way with her, but then she started acting a bit strange. It was moments like this that I wish I was a mind reader.“I haven’t been fair to you.” Brook said when she finally quit pacing.“What do you mean?” I asked, raising one of my eyebrows and tilting my head ever so slightly to the side.She didn’t respond right away, just started biting down on her bottom lip. It made me start to feel a little nervous myself, though I
Brooklyn-I waited until the auditorium cleared out before I looked over at my father. He was watching me intently the entire time, but I tried to ignore it. I don’t know why, but it annoyed me that he spoke up on my behalf. I wanted to show that I could take initiative on my own, but now I think everything was put to rest because of who my father was.“Did I say something wrong?” He asked when I just looked at him without saying a word.Taking a deep breath, I tried to calm myself before speaking. It wasn’t that I wasn’t happy to see him, I just wanted to make a name for myself. Now everyone knew who my father was and I wasn’t sure if others would respect me because of what I did and not who I was or who I was related to.Until recently I have been on my own. For the first time, I thought I was strong enough to be able to stand on my two feet and lead everyone. Now the question would always be there, was it I or my fat
Tatum- I wasn’t sure how Axel and I managed to get out of the state we were in, but when I had woken up and found Brook laying over me, the how didn’t matter. I was back and that was the only thing I cared about at the time. When I told her I was willing to give up my title for her, I had thought she would have agreed to it. It would have probably been a good idea to give it up either way, so I could focus on her, but I also loved being Alpha. I felt as if there was still so much more I could do as Alpha. Taking the hand, she held out to me after she asked her question, I accepted it without a word. Together, hand in hand, we made our way to the auditorium. The halls were empty, so I suspected everyone else was at the meeting, which I was kind of glad about. The idea of surprising everyone was sounding better and better with each step we took. This wasn’t the kind of reunion I had wanted when I woke up, then again nothing in my life has ever gone acco
Brooklyn- “It is time.” Eric said, as soon as I opened up the door to the room I was staying in with Tate. I had known that it was bound to come, but I had spent all night trying to reach Tate. When Eric had told me that the Elders were going to strip Tate of his Alpha role, I felt as if my world was disintegrating around me. On one hand I couldn’t care less about being Luna. On the other, I knew how much it meant to Tate by being Alpha. “We just need a little more time.” I whispered, feeling as if my heart was breaking. “I know, but they aren’t going to give it to us.” Eric said, sounding just as defeated as I felt. “He is going to wake up, I just know it.” I said, looking up at him and hoping there was something he could do. “I want to believe that, but we have to be realistic. It has been a week and there is still no change. I am not saying I don’t think he will never wake up, but we need to start looking at the possibility it could
Tatum-“Brook!” I screamed, watching as the life faded from her eyes.I had been so sure I could protect her. The doubts I had, I pushed away, and I gave into believing she was strong enough to protect herself. When we entered the warehouse, she had been so nervous that I had no choice but to keep myself calm, at least for her sake.The worse part of it all, I couldn’t get to her. It was almost as I was frozen in time, unable to move. I just had to stand here and watch the one I gave my heart to fall to the ground lifeless. As hard as I tried, I couldn’t make my feet move forward.As she now laid there, unmoving, I kept trying to get to her. My body felt weak like it was being weighed down by an unseen force. My heart was beating wildly in my chest, feeling as if it was going to explode at any moment.“Don’t die! I can’t lose you too!” I screamed, continuing to try to force my body to move.&ld
Brooklyn- Three days passed by and still no signs of Tate waking up. According to the pack doctor, she wasn’t sure if he even would wake up. I found out that wolfbane doesn’t just attack us physically, but it could also attack our wolf. Unless Axel can come out of it, there may be a chance that Tate could die. Even with the wolfbane completely removed, Tate wasn’t out of the woods yet. I have been staying in the hospital room with Tate, hoping that I would be there if he woke up. I have tried many times to reach him, even Skye has tried reaching Axel, but we have had no luck. As much as I wanted to be in the room until Tate woke, I had to take on the duties as Alpha, since I was Luna. At first, I hadn’t known the first thing about leading the pack, but Eric has been at my side nonstop. We still had no idea what happened to Ryan. I currently had a couple of warriors out searching for him and his guards, but it was as if he just disappeared off the face
Brooklyn-“Brook…” I heard Eric say aloud, yet it sounded so far away.“I don’t think she can hear you.” Another voice said, but I was unsure of who was speaking, as that voice sounded far away as well, but also slightly unfamiliar.“Is there anything you can do for him?” I heard Eric ask.“Not here I can’t. We need to get him back to the pack. There is some sort of poison on the blade.” I heard Jarod say.That is when everything clicked, I was still latched on to a very dead Shane. I had been so focused on what I was doing that I allowed myself to become oblivious to everything else. Tate had been stabbed and I didn’t even know if he was okay. Releasing Shane, I took one last look and saw that he was indeed very much dead.When I turned, I found Eric, my father, and Jarod surrounding Tate, who was still laying on the ground unconscious. Jarod was examining the blade th
