Cuddle Me, Alpha 42 The Ideology
Xavier I left my house feeling light and happy. It was a good idea to go home. I doubted I would have been able to function otherwise. My father had given me six missed calls, and the new intern who was filling in as my secretary had called me three times, too. I wondered what the issue was. Knowing that my father was likely calling to complain about keeping him waiting, I decided to call my secretary's desk. "Mr Blackwoods Office, who is peaking, please," the intern answered. She was a bit rusty, but it was better than the useless secretary who did not do her work. "You called three times. What do you want?" I asked, and she gasped. "Sorry, Alpha. I did not know it was you. Your number isn't registered on this phone," She explained, and I excused her. "Get straight to the point," I said, sounding impatient. "Ehm, I do not know how to say this," She started, and I knew what she would say, but I waited. "Say it as it is. Speaking the truth isn't a crime, neither is describing a s
Cuddle Me, Alpha 43 Everett
XavierI left the guest house and headed to where Levi and Soren were holding Everett. I would lie if I said the whole Whitehorn ideology issue hadn't put me off, but I had to deal with everything a step at a time.I drove to the venue and found Levi waiting outside. He had a bottle of beer in his hand, and it seemed he was bored.He raised his hands when I arrived, and I could see the question in his eyes.I took off my jacket before stepping out. I unbuttoned the first few buttons of my shirt to ease the tension and roll up my sleeves just in case I needed to get my hands dirty. "What happened? We have been waiting?" he asked me. Just then, Soren walked out. He had the same question on his face.“Had a little issue at the office and had to run back home," I said, and Levi looked confused.I walked towards the door, and he followed.“Care to elaborate?" Soren said. From the way he sounded, it seemed he had an idea of what might have happened at the office."No, why don't you tell h
Cuddle Me, Alpha 44 Tell Me Something I Do Not Know
XavierI punched Everet repeatedly until Soren stopped me.“Please, Alpha, he has had enough," I heard him say, holding me, and Jax growled."You broke into my house and hurt my wife. You fucking touched my wife and beat her up," I yelled at him, and his head was bloody, holding on to dear life, wincing in pain."Who sent you? Who are you working for?""Neil Havenwood," he managed, and I already knew that part, but I wanted more names.“Tell me something I do not know!" I yelled, commanding him."The hunter's bureau recruited some werewolves to work for them," he said, gasping and looking up at me."Some of us do not want a human Luna, and we know it would cause the hunters to attack us, so we…" he said, and I moved towards him, but Soren stopped me. Levi undid his silver constraints so his healing could set in.After an hour later, he was a bit better but not completely healed. "I am listening…" I said, still angry, and he nodded."The Havenwood, Ashcroft, Winters and Dales want to
Cuddle Me, Alpha 45 After The Wild Encounter
Lauren.Watching Xavier leave left me dumbfounded. I felt the bite between my legs, trying to assess the extent of the wound he had inflicted on me, worried it would leave a mark. However, it was supposed to hurt. It felt sensual and personal. I do not know if that makes me sick in the head, but it felt very binding in a way. I ignored the feeling and opted to tend to it in the bathroom. True to his words, the bite was already healing. I did not know if it had anything to do with how he licked it, but it wasn't as raw as it should be. I decided to just shower and leave whatever he did to it to do its job. I found myself feeling very hungry after the shower and opted to head downstairs to eat. I found Landon in the kitchen. He did not seem happy, and I hoped he would share whatever was bothering him with me soon.Elowen was eating yoghurt on the counter, and she had this grin looking at me. There was no need to guess why she was smiling; it was evident that she knew."Thought you'd be
Cuddle Me, Alpha 46 What is With Landon
Lauren I waited patiently for Xavier to speak. I watched him gather his thoughts while he figured out where to start. I had ample time, so I waited patiently. The Bureau had given him my card. Which meant should I break a rule, they would send him after me to hunt me down and arrest me,” he said, and I was silent. I already knew this part, but It was okay.“Should that happen, I will stand trial, and they would have the reason to imprison me or end me after they have weighed the consequences. They will have to take you, too, because they do not want the secret out there. Anyway. Landon remained with me on the pretence that he was spying for them. The current head of the Bureau hates my kind and is doing everything they can to bring me down. His plan is to bring the entire Werewolf race down. He does not believe we should coexist with humans. He comes from a bloodline of Lesser hunters. Lesser Hunters are humans who do not have werewolf genes and use Talismans to gain the needed stren
Cuddle Me, Alpha 47 Lauren's First Day
LaurenMorning came, and I was nervous. Xavier seemed excited, and I wondered how he always had a smile for me regardless of the situation. I still couldn't shake off the fact that he would be meeting with Abel later in the day, and after hearing Landon on the phone, I knew I had a cause to worry. I hoped for my sake it went smoothly, and the sneaky hunters did not find something to pin on Xavier and rope him in.I didn't know my worry was obvious until Xavier hugged me from behind and kissed my neck, snapping me back to reality.“Butterflies on your first day of work?" he asked, and I nodded. I couldn't tell him I was worried about the meeting; I could not cause him to worry or break. I knew I had to be strong and hope for the best. I wish I could discuss this with Landon. I wished there was no need for secrets. Maybe it would have been easier. I fought my tears and turned towards Xavier."Promise me you will be guarded around Abel. I didn't want to lose you," I confessed, and he sto
Cuddle Me, Alpha 48 I Want You To Fly
Lauren Instead of going to his office, we turned left, and he opened a door beside his office. It was another office.As I stepped into this modern office, I was immediately struck by the sheer opulence and cutting-edge design that surrounded me. The first thing that caught my eye was the floor-to-ceiling windows that stretch across one entire wall, offering a panoramic view of the city skyline. The glass was tinted just enough to filter out the harsh sunlight, creating a warm, inviting ambience. The cityscape, adorned with towering skyscrapers, glistens in the distance.The expansive office had an open layout that emphasised collaboration and fluidity. A pristine white marble floor extends in every direction, accentuated by sleek, grand furniture. The desk was made of rich, dark wood and was equipped with the latest in ergonomic design, allowing for both comfort and productivity. The desk is adorned with a high-end computer setup featuring a large, curved monitor and state-of-the-a
Cuddle Me, Alpha 49 Meet The executives
Xavier I didn't mean to prove Lauren right on her first day of work in the Blackwood Corp, but she looked too hot for me to wait.She commanded respect without knowing it. A true equal. Something I have longed to have in a partner, and though human, she had it all.I also could not ignore the fact that her scent was intoxicating. I knew she was wet, and I wanted to wait it out until later, but the moment we entered her office, I knew it would be impossible to wait, and I went for it.I wondered if anyone saw us and if they did, what their response was to our adventurous encounter.I could feel her rapid heartbeat, her fear of heights and pleasure mixed into something beautiful. I still had a lot to do, but fucking her against the glass would do for now.By the time we were through, I left her office, leaving both of us satiated. At least now, we would be able to focus on our tasks. I headed to my office, and the look my secretary gave me showed she knew what had happened in Lauren's

Cuddle Me, Alpha 68 Friends and Foes
Lauren Amidst the chaos, I locked eyes with a feral wolf, its red gaze filled with a hunger that sent shivers down my spine. It lunged at me, and I barely had time to react. My reflexes were heightened, but the sheer ferocity of the attack was overwhelming. I fired a round, and the wolf yelped in pain as it tumbled to the ground. Beside me, Landon was locked in a deadly tussle with another feral. I could see the desperation in his eyes as he fought to keep the snarling beast at bay. His strength and determination were awe-inspiring, and I knew we couldn't afford to lose. Abel and his group of hunters fought with a fierce precision that complemented our own efforts. They moved as one, a well-coordinated unit, driving the ferals back and giving us the opportunity to regroup and reload. By ten in the night, we were battered and bruised, our clothes torn, and our bodies covered in a mixture of sweat and blood. But we couldn't afford to give in to exhaustion or pain. We fought on, drive
Cuddle Me, Alpha 67 True- Blood
Lauren I arrived at the venue. Looking across and worried. We had people stationed about, but we needed the host to believe I had foolishly come alone. I approached the door of the Warehouse but refused to go in. I got a text on my phone from Xavier urging me to come in.“No, I do not trust this. I can't call you; your number is unreachable, yet you can text me. Come out so I can see you,” I replied to the text, knowing he wasn’t going to come out. There was silence, and when I tried to walk away, the door of the Warehouse opened, and a gun was fired. I froze on my feet, wondering where the shot came from. Was I hit? Fortunately, I wasn't hit.“Leaving so soon, Luna Valentine?" I heard a bitch like voice call out, and I turned in the direction. There outside the Warehouse, Isabella stood outside with angry-looking wolves. They also did not look normal. They were coming out of the Warehouse looking dangerous and shit.I swear I peed on myself. What the fuck! They looked evil as hell
Cuddle Me, Alpha 66 A Visit To The Counsel
Xavier I surrounded the vicinity of Gilbert's office after I was confident that my parents were safe in the hidden bunker of their home. Soren and I went into the building. I owned it anyway, so no one dared stop me. Taking the elevator, we went up to Gilbert's floor. His secretary was surprised to see me. I knew everyone knew of my arrest, so escaping the hunter's den was a badge of honour because no one had ever come out alive. I was grateful that I did not fight Darius that day. He would have killed me, and it wouldn't have mattered that I did not break any law. Landon bought me time by putting his life in danger. I was forever grateful for that, and I will always show my appreciation. We walked into Gilbert's office, and there was a bottle of Whisky on his table. I was trying to read him and, at the same time, maintain composure. 'What is this? Isabella has taken over my pack and is given orders, Gilbert? Didn't you do your job as you have been paid," I asked him, and he looke
Cuddle Me, Alpha 65 The Text
LaurenAfter greeting Xavier, I fell back asleep. I guess my lack of sleep and peace for four weeks had taken a toll on me, and my body needed to regain its strength. I somehow knew Xavier wasn't home. I did not know what, but it was a feeling, something I wasn't able to do before.I went to the bathroom to freshen up and shower, and while I brushed my teeth, I saw the crescent moon-shaped teeth bite on my neck. I grazed my hand through it, and it stung a bit. Still sore but healing gradually.I giggled, realising how things had gone from hopeless to hopeful.After I brushed my teeth, I showered.I felt the urge to call Xavier, but I decided against it at the last minute. He might have gone for a meeting or something.At the same time, I dressed up in joggers, a tank top, and a hoody.My stomach growled, and I remembered what Gail had told me. I was still finding it hard to believe that she was right. She had to be joking. I searched my purse for a pregnancy stick. Something I had bou
Cuddle Me, Alpha 64 Levi’s Condition
Xavier I watched Gail apply the balm to the back of his arm and wait. The balm was colourless when she applied it, but it started turning dark."You sure you flushed his system, doc?" She asked the doctor, and the woman could not speak. I already knew what was happening. Someone had instructed them to ensure he did not leave. I could guess who it was, but I needed to hear the name. If Levi dies, then Gilbert cannot handle the affair. It will fall on Jacob, and Jacob will be forced to take up the reins. Killing two officers in a row will be suspicious, and those not in the plot will figure it out quickly.I also suspect that my father's Illness is not a coincidence."Look at me, Dr Karen. There was a possibility you thought I wouldn't return and you were following orders. Who instructed you to keep Levi in a comatose state indefinitely,” I said, leaving Gail to work on Levi.The doctor's lips quivered, and she began to shed tears."It was Luna Isabella," she said, and I frowned at her
Cuddle Me, Alpha 63 The Traitor
XavierWe were still engaged in our discussion when the door burst open, and Jacob stormed in. I noticed he was alone, making me wonder where Levi was. Jacob had a grim expression, and I couldn't help but worry."Xavier!" he exclaimed, unable to believe his eyes; he looked over at Landon and Soren. I could see the disbelief in his eyes. He never thought we would make it out there."Mr Vale!" he said, and hearing the name honestly, it was a giveaway."How?" Jacob said, walking toward us. The room that had paused momentarily returned to the chattering and eating."How?" Jacob asked again."Jacob meets the new temporary head of Hunter's bureau, Rufus Valentine," I said, and his eyes widened.“That explains it,” Jacob said excitedly and glad. I could see true relief in his eyes."No wonder you didn't like me the first few days Lauren and I were at your house. It also explains why Everet said Lauren wasn't normal," He said, and Rufus frowned, but I changed the topic immediately. Seeing how
Cuddle Me, Alpha 62 Some Puzzles To Solve
XavierI woke up and found it was afternoon, the golden rays of the sun slipping through the curtains, casting a gentle warmth upon the room. My gaze drifted to my side, where Lauren lay peacefully, her chest rising and falling in the rhythm of slumber. Her long hair spilt across the pillow, and I couldn't help but smile. It had been a month since I saw her. I could not believe her father had rescued us from the clutches of those ruthless hunters.Careful not to disturb her, I slid out of bed and headed to the bathroom. The mirror revealed the face of a man who had seen more than he ever wanted to. The beard that had grown wild during my captivity was now reduced to stubble. I couldn't bear the feeling of it on my skin; it served as a constant reminder of the darkness I had narrowly escaped.As I shaved, I pondered the events of the past month. The hunter's prison had been a living nightmare, and the fact that I had managed to survive felt like a miracle. It was the rescue mission mou
Cuddle Me, Alpha 61 In Time
LaurenThe return of network service to my phone at the break of dawn was the assuring sign that we were finally back in Riverbend. My heart was in my mouth, afraid of the outcome. I still did not know what my father and his friends planned to do, but I was hopeful. Soon, we pulled up at the gate of a house situated on the outskirts of town. The gate opened, and we drove in. The three trucks drove on the driveway till we got to the building. We alighted the trucks, and I waited for my father's friends to move. The people in the house opened the front door, and it was a woman; she was grey and dangerous, and she was happy to see my father and his friends."Well, I thought you all would remain in Avalora, away from society for the rest of your lives,” She said, ushering us in. The moment she saw me, she recognised me.“Mrs Blackwood?" She asked me, and I nodded."Gail, meet my daughter, Lauren," My father said, introducing us, and she gasped."Abel fucked up good this time,” She said,
Cuddle Me, Alpha 60 What Really Happened
LaurenI sat on the patio watching the sunset. Since I came to Avalora I have refused to visit people or talk to anyone. There was no joy in my heart, so it was pointless. My mother tried to get me out a bit, but I refused. I was a bit sick, but it was mainly because of my poor diet. I wasn't eating or sleeping well. I was a mess. Still staring at the sunset, my mother left the house with her basket of tomatoes. Usually, she would go to the exchange market with my father, but She went alone this time. I didn't bother to ask. I didn't care. My father came to sit beside me on the bench, and then he sighed."How are you?" He asked, and I looked at him."I am fine, Daddy," I said, and he chuckled painfully."I never knew a day would come when you would lie to me, Lauren. Only a fool will believe you are fine,' he said, and I was silent. I had been doing a lot of lying lately. Trying to cover up, trying to keep it together, but every time, things just came bursting out the seams. I was t
