Escape from Eden: A Breeder's Awakening Chapter Forty-Five
Imani“Imani? Can you hand me three of the 100 milliliter syringes?” Dr. Hemsworth requested. I turned around and collided with the metal tray that held the syringes and nearly toppled the tray and its contents over. Thankfully, I righted the tray at the last minute. “My word. Is everything okay, Imani?”“I-I’m fine,” I rushed out.I’m not fine. Jackson offered to mark me!I never responded to him–at least not verbally. Jackson offered to mark me and I ran out of his office like a bat out of hell, and didn’t leave my bedroom until it was time for him to drive me to the prison.We remained silent during the car ride, and the hard set of his jaw made me believe he took my fleeing as rejection, but that wasn’t the case. Marking between male wolves and their breeders was…unheard of.Many generations ago, it was a normal rite of passage for mated couples to mark each other. But due to the war with the humans and the declining wolf population, marking was a ritual that was no longer practi

JacksonI was about to shut down for the day when the door to my office flung open and the last person I’d hoped to see strolled in like he owned the fucking place. I held back a sigh and glanced at my watch. Who the hell let him out of confinement?“You don’t look thrilled to see me,” Andrew said. I stared at him and my lip curled in disgust when he sat his uninvited ass in an arm chair. “I’m sure you received the same reaction from your breeder,” I quipped. “Fuck you!” my brother barked, turning red in anger. I watched unimpressed as he attempted to restrain himself from shifting. His claws digging into the arms of the chair proved he was doing a horrible job. “I lost my breeder because of you!” he spat.“Correction, you lost your breeder because of you. The courts determined that your actions and long-term abuse physical and emotional abuse to your breeder was so egregious that she could no longer remain in your care.” I leaned across the desk. “Do you know how much of a sick mo
Escape from Eden: A Breeder's Awakening Chapter Forty-Seven
JacksonMy fingers clenched around the steering wheel as I drove to the prison. I’d been anxious since Imani rejected me earlier when I proposed marking her, and my anxiety shot through the roof when Andrew swaggered into my office with his shit-eating grin.I hated Andrew–always had. He offered nothing to bettering our society. If anything, he made it significantly worst by injecting his arrogance and cruelness like a noxious fume. He’d been cruel since he was a child in Oasis. Some might say Oasis made him that way, but I knew better. He was born unapologetically evil and that evil festered like a puss-filled wound. Andrew was a coward and resigned to being a noble who could skate by and live his life untouched behind his gilded gates. I didn’t hold a disdain towards nobles–I came from the same noble bloodline as him; however, I looked down on those who felt the rules didn’t apply to them and that the world owed them for simply breathing. They dressed to the nines for their fancy

Imani“36, 24, 36. Delightful,” Supervisor Rachel said, grinning from ear to ear as she measured Eliza. “Write that down, Sarah.”Supervisor Sarah snorted as she recorded Eliza’s measurements. “You don’t have to tell me how to do my job. I’ve been doing it as long as you.”“This one is Breeder A material,” Supervisor Rachel exclaimed, ignoring her partner. I rolled my eyes when Eliza’s chest puffed up in pride.You live a sad existence when being reduced to a walking womb is your greatest achievement.I couldn’t shame Eliza for her excitement because the alternative was downright depressing. Because of her A-status, she’d live a very comfortable life—some would say a life of luxury. She’d be selected by a Judge or a high-ranking military official and give birth to his pups. These pups would be genetically superior to pups carried by Breeder B and Breeder C, who were more susceptible to Deformations and Mutations.“Eliza, you are Breeder A,” Supervisor Rachel declared after she conclud

“P-please don’t hurt me,” I begged while on my knees. Despite the arctic temperature in the infirmary, sweat began to trickle down my forehead and under my armpits. A bead of sweat dripped between my breasts, reminding me that if I wasn’t wearing a bra that my breasts would be exposed to this man. I wanted to run, but my common sense told me that would be impossible. He was bigger than me, stronger, too. I’d never have a chance. He had a gun and could kill me with a single shot. I swallowed and raised my hands. “I-I am a student of Eden…please…don’t shoot.”“Eden’s students are in class right now. You shouldn’t be here. Do you have Dysmorphism?” the stranger asked.My eyes widened in surprise. “I-I’m a werewolf.” Well…I assume I am. I won’t know for another three days. His eyes narrowed at me. “I have a badge. It’s on the front of my dress.”“Show me,” he demanded in a deep, husky voice. I retrieved my badge and my hands shook as I handed it to him. I snatched my hand back when hi

Judge Jackson…Time stopped and Earth stood still as his title and name echoed, bouncing off the walls of the confined room. His expression changed from playful and coy to serious. My breath quickened as my nerves took over. I’d been at the mercy of a Judge the entire time and didn’t know it. I argued with a Judge, no less! There was no way I’d escape punishment…or death. He knows. I could see it in his eyes when I lied about my wolf status, but I figured he couldn’t do anything about it. I was so wrong. “Judge Jackson, I apologize for the intrusion,” Supervisor Rachel said, stepping forward and grabbing my hand. “Imani has always been one of our more curious girls with her head always in the clouds. She must’ve gotten distracted on the way to class. It’s our fault for not keeping a better eye on her.”Realizing I couldn’t keep my eyes off of Judge Jackson, Supervisor Rachel shoved my head down in submission. Instead of staring into his mystifying blue eyes, I stared at his polishe

“I’ll be keeping an eye on you.”The threat was anything but subtle. His words inched down my spine like an icy chill. Judge Jackson had a countdown hanging over my head. He was the predator and I was the prey.I turned around and found Judge Jackson walking in the opposite direction. I couldn’t tear my eyes away from his broad back and his perfect posture as he marched down the hallway. I came to a halt when I bumped into Supervisor Sarah. “Imani, watch where you’re going. You caused enough trouble today to last you a lifetime,” she admonished.I’m in enough trouble to last three days…We paused outside of the classroom. “What you did today was very…disappointing and irresponsible. You attracted the wrong kind of attention today,” Supervisor Rachel reprimanded. “This is a difficult time for all of us. I understand how you feel. I was in your shoes decades ago.”She couldn’t possibly know I felt. She was a Breeder A. She had twelve pups and returned to Eden when her mate died severa

There was blood…so much…blood. The man’s unpleasant scent became stronger and turned my stomach. I think I’m going to be sick!I jumped out of bed and ran to the nearest bathroom. I barely had the toilet seat up and my knees on the ground when I vomited my breakfast. The oatmeal was as uninspiring going down as it was coming up–swirling around in the toilet in brownish-grayish chunks. I heard voices and kept my head down, preparing for more to come up. “What happened in here?” Supervisor Rachel asked. “That man was the human I was looking for,” Judge Jackson replied casually, as if he hadn’t shot a man in the head who was only inches from my face. I was surprised. I had no idea he was a human and apparently neither did Ms. Harlow or Supervisor Rachel and Sarah. It got me thinking…I cleaned myself up, rinsing my mouth out in the sink and ensuring my hair was in place before I faced them again. I opened the door and wasn’t surprised when all eyes were on me. “I’m sorry,” I apolog

Imani“Because I leave in a few days for a mission.”I dropped the plate I was washing in the sink. “What did you say?”“I must leave for a recon mission in a few days. I’ll be living amongst the foul beasts.” My brows crinkled in confusion. “The humans?”“Precisely,” he confirmed. “But that’s dangerous. You can’t go,” I protested. “It’s my job, Imani.”“I’m coming with you,” I said without thinking. Deep laughter rumbled from Jackson, and I couldn’t blame him. My suggestion was asinine, but I was desperate. What if he didn’t return?“I’m afraid that’s not feasible, Imani.”“What do you have to do on this mission?” I asked, following him out of the kitchen to his office. “Did I forget to mention that it was a top secret mission?” he said, teasing me because he knew it would get under my skin.“Can you be serious?” I asked in frustration. He eyed me cautiously as he sat in his office chair. I stood in front of his desk and glared at him until he motioned for me to sit in the chair
Escape from Eden: A Breeder's Awakening Chapter Forty-Three
JacksonI growled at the screen as I turned the pancakes in the pan. I was on the sixth episode of Bleed With Me, and I was cursing every single second of enjoyment I gained from the sordid show. “Screw her for introducing me to this show,” I grumbled. “And screw King Westin for intentionally sending the prince on a wild goose chase. I swear to–”“Good morning,” Imani greeted breezily as she entered the kitchen. I fumbled with my cell phone and nearly dropped it in pancake batter. I caught it before I faced an early-morning crisis and shut off the show before she could figure out what I was up to. “Are you okay?” she questioned as she approached the coffee maker. “I’m fine.”“You don’t look fine.”“I look better than you,” I teased lightly, smoothing down her curls that had tangled from her wild sleeping.“Ouch,” she commented with a roll of her eyes as she poured herself a cup of coffee. “I should be saying that. Is there a reason you sleep so violently?”“I think it has something

Imani“Here…put this on,” Jackson said, offering me one of his shirts. I accepted it without hesitation and pulled it over my head. I wasn’t surprised when the shirt swallowed me whole and stopped at my knees.“Would you like a late-night treat?”My interests piqued. He’s being so…nice. I hope Nice Jackson is here to stay. I don’t know how I’ll feel if he turns into an asshole again. Especially with how far we’ve come. He snapped his fingers, drawing me back to the conversation we were having. “Um…yes, I would like a treat.”He nodded. “I’ll be back shortly.”Jackson left and I returned to my bedroom to retrieve my laptop and headphones. I’d started the next episode of Bleed With Me while I waited for his return. I was so immersed in the show that I hadn’t noticed his return ten minutes later. Strong fingers tapped my shoulder and I was surprised to find Jackson hovering above me with two steaming mugs in his hands. I removed the headphones and apologized. “Too much television can

Imani“I need more, Jack.”The words had tumbled out of my mouth faster than I could have ever imagined. I was past pretending–past shame and embarrassment. I needed Jackson, and I’d worry about how our dynamics would change in the morning. He kissed me again, and the smoldering fire in my belly turned into a raging inferno. I fell back against the pillows and my legs parted instinctually. “Your wish is my command,” he whispered against my lips.I sharply inhaled when his fingers ran between my folds. My legs trembled around his thick body and he grinned wolfishly. “So sensitive, Little Lamb. And so wet. Let me show you.”He raised his fingers in the darkness of the room that was bathed by the moonlight. His fingers glinted with my arousal for him. My jaw slackened when he eased a dripping finger toward his mouth. His pink tongue slid out for a taste while the anticipation was killing me. My hips rolled–searching for contact. I whimpered when my clit scraped across the front of his

Jackson“You wanted me to hear you, Little Lamb. So…here I am.”“It was an accident,” she tried arguing, pulling the sheet tight around her. I inhaled deeply and released a shuddered growl. My wolf, Rowan, threatened to make an appearance–the need to mate was enough to bring him out of hibernation. “This was no accident, Little Lamb; you wanted me to hear you.” She shook her head furiously. I grinned. “I knew you were in heat since the moment I opened my eyes this morning.”“You…you did?”“I did,” I replied painfully, trying to concentrate on not losing myself to my primal side–the side that wanted to consume her, uncaring of her comfort or pleasure.She has no idea how difficult it was riding in a vehicle with her!“Why didn’t you say anything?” she questioned. It took me several seconds to reply because my eyes were transfixed on her hard nipples poking through the thin sheet that hid her body from me. “Because…I wanted to see how how long you’d go before asking for help, and you

ImaniMy top teeth drove into my bottom lip as the vampire lovers passionately kissed on the screen. My throat felt tight and dry as the raw passion between the forbidden couple from warring covens intensified. I snatched my champagne glass off the coffee table and guzzled it down, hoping it would provide relief. Instead, the room seemed to become warmer and it felt harder to breathe.Truthfully, I’d been warm since I stepped into Judge Max and Mary’s residence. I was grateful when Jackson removed my coat because I was sweltering. I didn’t say anything about the temperature in the home because we were guests and I didn’t want to be difficult.But now I feel like I’m on fire.My mouth gaped when the male lead crammed his face between the female lead’s legs. She writhed on the bed, moaning and twisting her fingers in the black satin sheets.“Are you okay, Imani?” Mary asked, pausing the show. “I-I’m fine,” I stuttered. I snatched my eyes away from the screen and focused on my lap. “Yo
