Charlotte cried as she rushed upstairs to find out where Teddy was taking Anne to.
"Teddy, you cannot do this to me. I'm your wife and Luna; you cannot bring Anne into our home. Teddy! Open this door!" Charlotte cried as she stood in front of the room door that was the master bedroom.
Since Charlotte had moved into this house and had been living with Teddy Hudson for four years, Teddy hadn't entered this room to make love to her. But today, he had brought his assistant home. Not only did he tell Charlotte that Anne was his new mate and Luna, but he also took Anne to the bedroom that rightfully belonged to Charlotte.
"Teddy!! Teddy!!" Charlotte cried outside the room door as she heard Teddy and Anne smooching inside. "Yeah, baby, give it to me! Ah! Yeah! Harder! Mm."
"Teddy!!" Charlotte shouted again. However, just then, she heard a voice from downstairs calling, "Is anyone at home??" Charlotte froze; who was that? The voice sounded so powerful and masculine, and Charlotte quickly wiped her tears away.
Has a rogue entered their house? Charlotte wondered as she quickly searched the corridor where she was standing for any instruments to protect herself.
Charlotte quickly picked up a mop stick that she saw. She knew she was weak and couldn't fight, so she had to protect herself, as she wasn't expecting any visitors, nor was Teddy.
"Is anyone at home?" Charlotte heard the voice coming upstairs, and she quickly controlled the switch as the mansion was hers.
"Light off!" Charlotte commanded, and she could feel her heart beating loudly in her chest as the corridor lights turned off, just as she inhaled the most intoxicating masculine scent ever wafting through the air and into her nostrils.
The masculine scent was smoky and aromatic, and Charlotte was beginning to lose her grip on the mop stick that she was holding as she stood in a corner to protect herself and hit the intruder on the head who dared to enter Alpha Teddy's mansion without any of the guards catching or stopping him.
"Anyone here?" As the voice drew near, he stopped as he could also hear the sound of her rapid heartbeat. Not only that, he sensed a sweet lemonade scent that he felt drawn to, wanting to hold and suck, and his wolf charged within him.
Charlotte, moving quickly, left the corner where she was hiding to hit the intruder on the head, but he immediately caught her arm just as it reached to strike him with the mop stick.
Charlotte came face to face with a tall, handsome, formidable figure standing before her. His strong masculine presence commanded submission, and Charlotte's wolf began to giggle in excitement for the very first time in her life.
Her wolf danced happily inside her body as her blue eyes met his glowing green ones. He muttered, "Mate."
In the dark corridor, he inhaled Charlotte's lemonade scent, and not only that, he dipped his head to the side of her neck, causing her to shiver in his hold as he sniffed her in the darkness. Inhaling her scent seemed to draw him in, and the next moment, what Charlotte hadn't anticipated happened: the stranger, who was making her lose hold of her sanity, kissed her neck and nibbled on her sensitive spot.
"Mmm," Charlotte moaned. She was committing adultery as a married woman; she was supposed to push this masculine figure away from her to protect her dignity and remind him that she was married. Instead, she succumbed and raked her fingers through his hair. She hugged him closely while he held her dangerously tight and continued kissing her. From the nape of her neck, he charged on, kissing and licking his way to her earlobes and to her face.
"Who are you? I have been searching for my mate for a long time, not knowing my mate was at home," the man said as his lips brushed Charlotte's right ear and he gently bit her earlobe. He kissed her cheeks and reached for her face to look at him. He met her watery blue eyes that glimmered with hope and love, even though he still didn't know who she was.
He kissed her tears away and told her, "I'm here now, and no one will hurt you again." With that comment, he kissed Charlotte on her lips, and just then, the corridor lights turned on. Standing there and looking at the two people kissing each other, their eyes full of rage, was Teddy Hudson.
"What the fuck is going on here??" Teddy demanded as the light came on, revealing his wife Charlotte and his older brother, Jack Hudson, kissing each other passionately and reaching to strip themselves bare in the corridor.
Teddy had first noticed Charlotte's increased heartbeat while he was thrusting into Anne's warmth, and not only did he hear her heart beating loudly. He mind-linked with her as he sensed she was in danger, and that made him withdraw from Anne just before he could reach his climax.
He heard Charlotte's thoughts in her mind: "Is there a rogue in here? Which rogue would dare enter Alpha Teddy's mansion?"
Teddy quickly dressed up with speed to protect Charlotte from the rogue, as he knew she was a weak she-wolf. But what he hadn't expected was to pull the door open and be met with darkness in the previously bright corridor.
Not only that, he sensed a familiar, challenging presence that wasn't a rogue and quickly switched on the light to see what was happening in the corridor.
Teddy saw his older brother, Jack Hudson, and Charlotte kissing each other sweetly and passionately, with lust burning between them.
"What the fuck is going on here? Charlotte! You bitch! Is this how horny you are that you would dare to kiss my brother in my own house?" Teddy charged toward Charlotte in anger, having completely forgotten that Jack was arriving today.
His father had called him earlier when he was at the neighboring pack, telling him that Jack had finally called to say he was coming home. It slipped Teddy's mind to inform Charlotte, as he was angry upon hearing that his older brother would be returning home.
Teddy knew their father loved Jack very much. Although they both looked alike, Jack was their father's favorite and good at everything. It wasn't until Jack told their parents ten years ago that he wanted to travel abroad to further his studies in human lands that things changed.
Teddy had been happy then, as it was an opportunity for him to get rid of Jack. Instead of contemplating killing his older brother to take over Norfield pack.
Teddy was pleased that Jack had chosen to leave the pack on his own, even though their father disagreed, reminding Jack that he had to rule over the pack and fight in the ongoing rogue attacks to protect their people. Jack still insisted on traveling out to study business management. Now, Jack was back at the pack that Teddy had built.
Charlotte quickly snapped out of her trance as she heard Teddy yelling at her. He charged towards the masculine man in the corridor to drag Charlotte out and beat her mercilessly.However, Jack stood between Teddy and Charlotte, protecting her behind him. He demanded of his younger brother, "What's going on with you, Teddy? Is that how to welcome me on my return from abroad?"Charlotte was shocked that the man who had just kissed her was now Teddy's brother, Jack Hudson. How did she not recognize him? That was because she had switched off the corridor light and controlled it with artificial intelligence that managed their mansion."Welcome, you? You dare to show up in my house unnoticed and not just that? You kissed my wife in my house and in my presence?" Teddy roared, staring at Jack with so much hostility in his eyes."Move away from Charlotte now! I'm going to deal with her today! I never knew that she was a horny bitch and slept around with men in my absence!" Teddy shouted as he
"STOP IT! Stop!" Charlotte rushed to separate the two men. Though she was weak and no match to withstand any of their strength, Jack obeyed Charlotte's command as he beat his younger brother into a stupor, not minding that he was in Teddy's house and that Teddy was the ruling Alpha of the Norfield pack."Charlotte..." Jack reached out to touch her, but Charlotte moved away from him and rushed to meet Teddy."Are you alright?" Charlotte asked Teddy as she crouched in front of him, and Teddy moved his hands away from Charlotte's touch.Anne quickly rushed to help Teddy stand on his feet. At the speed Jack had used to attack Teddy, both Anne and Charlotte were shocked. It was as if Jack had disappeared from where he was standing, and the next minute he was in front of Teddy, attacking him and dealing with him, not giving Teddy the chance to retaliate.Charlotte saw how Teddy pushed her hands away from helping him stand, but he accepted Anne's help. However, as Teddy stood up, staggering f
Charlotte didn't know what to say to Teddy. Truly, Jack was her mate. She perceived him as her mate the moment she inhaled that sweet smoky scent that was like coffee. She wanted to drink him and have him inside her, but he was her husband's elder brother. She couldn't boldly acknowledge the truth to Teddy. She was afraid of Teddy's reaction. He had been her husband for four years, and he would beat her mercilessly if she dared to tell him the truth: that Jack Hudson was her real mate.While Charlotte was still lost in her thoughts, contemplating what to tell Teddy, he moved away from the room window and approached her."Answer me! Is my brother, Jack Hudson, your mate? Did you feel the mating bond with him that you had to grip him closely and kiss him too?" Teddy demanded as he finally approached Charlotte, startling her out of her thoughts."No..." Charlotte responded in a shaking voice, but Teddy didn't believe her."What do you mean by no? And why is your voice shaking? Do you thi
With a heart full of ego, instead of Teddy apologizing to his wife, Charlotte, and pleading for her forgiveness for the years he had mistreated her and cheated on her with Anne Robert, he trailed his finger over the card and asked, "You set up all this here? Why didn't you say anything when you saw me arrive with Anne?"How could she tell him it was their anniversary night when he had stared at her with rage and had flogged her mercilessly? How could she have told him that it was her 22nd birthday and also their wedding anniversary night?Charlotte didn't reply, which annoyed Teddy, but he already knew the answer: it was because he had come home with Anne Robert in his arms.Anne had followed him to the neighboring pack function, and they had arrived at the Norfield pack gate late, so he had to take Anne home with him to rest before she returned to her father's house the following day.Teddy knew he was cheating on Charlotte with Anne, as Anne had been his mate since she was younger. H
"What??" Anne screamed as Charlotte carefully stood up to bolt out of the mansion. She could not bear any pups for Teddy. For four years, he had lied to his family, claiming she was barren, while he hadn’t tried hard to make her conceive."Teddy? You cannot do this to me!" Anne cried, while Charlotte carried the tray of food and walked to the kitchen. She said to them calmly, "The food is not enough, so I want to get some extra. Would you care to join us, Anne?" Charlotte asked with a playful smirk on her lips while Anne glared at her."Sweetheart, you cannot mate with her! I cannot withstand the pain if you do that to me!" Anne cried in Teddy's hold, ignoring Charlotte, who left them and went into the kitchen. Quickly, Charlotte dropped the tray of food there and bolted out of the house through the kitchen back door. She wouldn’t be used as Teddy's baby-making machine. She fled the residence, not caring if there were ongoing rogue attacks.She ran back to her father's mansion, which w
Charlotte sat on one of the couches in the parlor, admiring the small house. Not until Jack walked out of his room with only a white towel wrapped around his waist did she break her focus. Jack was holding another short towel in his right hand, which he ran through his short black wavy hair."Jack, are you sure I shouldn't start going back home now to my parents' house? I'm sure the guards searching for me would have gone farther away or gone back to report to Teddy that they couldn't find me," Charlotte said, quickly looking away from Jack's masculine dark chest.The white towel was wrapped only around Jack's waist, and Charlotte could feel her heart palpitating, beating loudly in her chest.Jack didn't respond to Charlotte as he stood in front of his room door, admiring her. It was late at night, past 1 a.m., and here he was with Charlotte, talking as if it were daybreak."Why do you want to go back home? Knowing that your parents do not have a say in the Alpha's family?" Jack questi
In Alpha Teddy's villa, Teddy moved Anne away from his arms as she prevented him from going after Charlotte. "Anne, you have to try to understand. If I allow Charlotte to go, especially now that she perceives Jack as her mate, it would put me at greater risk and enable Jack to take the pack away from me, which I cannot allow to happen." Teddy's eyes darkened as he said this, and Anne burst into tears in his arms."No, Teddy. I cannot withstand the pain. Please," Anne begged, and Teddy remained silent for a while until one of the guards rushed in."Alpha! Sorry to disturb you at this hour, but Luna Charlotte has left this residence, and our men couldn't seem to find her. Also, there are reports of some suspected rogues captured at the pack's border," the guard relayed, and Teddy felt all the hair on his body stand up in fear."Go now! Find her and ensure that you bring her back. Failure to do so, and you all shall be punished!" Teddy ordered, and the guard replied, "Understood, Alpha."
Charlotte was eager to have Jack in her warmth. She had dreamt of this day arriving, the day she would finally consummate her marriage. However, she was consummating it tonight with her husband's brother.What would her pack members think of her? Charlotte didn't care. There had been rumors about her being barren, and she thought this was the only right way to prove to her pack members that she wasn't barren but had been deprived of her marital rights. She endured Teddy's torture daily, hoping and yearning for his love, believing that he would one day change. But with each passing day and night, Teddy only ended up becoming worse."Are you ready?" Jack's hoarse voice questioned Charlotte as he prepared himself to enter her warmth.With her eyes closed, Charlotte replied, "Yes, mate."Jack smiled, although a part of him wanted to withdraw. No, this is not right, the part of him said. But Jack's wolf wiggled within him and said it was right. Let's claim our mate.With a gentle push, Jack
