Chapter 50"Let it drop." He commanded in a hoarse voice."Huh?""Let the towel drop." He commanded again.Her eyes widened, but she obeyed, or maybe her hand was too weak to do otherwise. He stood back and watched her with a satisfied smile, so much that she began to feel shy under his hard scrutiny.But suddenly he was kissing her again, she had no idea how he managed it, but each kiss had the capacity to nullify her senses and weaken every limb in her body. One moment he was staring at her mouth and her naked body with a dark glint in those eyes, the next moment he was pressing her to himself, kissing every part of her exposed body.He gathered her closer for the kiss, but he wasn't holding her as tightly as before. She actually got one arm loose and managed to get it up to his chest where she let it roam freely. She had to fight the urge to beg him to take her, he was only just kissing her and yet his kiss was too sensual and every bit as nice as she remembered. She found hersel
Chapter 51He was not only saying it, his free hand took hers and pinned it above her head. Laurel groaned in pleasure when his other hand grazed the sensitive skin between her legs, she felt like cryimg, she could never have imagined there was so much pleasure in this world. Earl was showing her that- and more. She nearly cried out when he let his fingers caress that very sensitive part of her body, she could hear him groan in satisfaction as he touched her. "You are very wet, that is just how I want you to be Laurel." Was it the way he said her name? Damn! She was going to go mad with need, just how much more could she take? But he did not look like he was ready to stop just yet, he slid one finger into her and Laurel gasped at the intrusion. He paused, long enough to see her bite her lips to stifle the moan that threatened to escape her lips. He Chuckled darkly, "Don't try to hold it. I want to hear you say it, I want to hear you beg me, I want to hear you moan my name, Laurel
Chapter 52Earl lay on the bed peeking up at the ceiling while Laurel lay cradled beside him, she was still sound asleep. He was exhausted as well, but he was surprised that after three orgasms in one night he was still wide awake, his thoughts a mix of excitement and satisfaction. He lay still, listening to her soft, steady breath fanning gently against his chest, it was amazing what she did to him. He found it rather surprising that after three rounds in one night, the least thing as her breathing against his skin was stirring a totally new wave of unexplainable desires inside him."Damn stupid bond!" He cursed silenty. He had chided himself to let her rest after waking up sometime in the night and finding her looking at him with those eyes that drove him crazy with desire. Well, the heat had taken over him again and he had taken her– twice again, in one night. Three times! But still, even the feel of her skin against his now was doing things to him, he had allowed her to sleep
Chapter 53"My sister thinks I left yesterday." Kristen whispered as he lifted her from the bed, lodging her against the wall and pressing her there with his hands holding her chin in place as he kissed her silly. "I have to be gone before she wakes up." She managed to add."Which makes it even the more interesting," he whispered hoarsely, "Sneaky sex has never been better." He added with a grin as he nibbled on her lips again Gregg moaned into her mouth and pushed one finger inside her wet pussy, stroking her lightly at first before his pace increased. He didn't even stop kissing her. His finger was still inside her as his body moved pressed against her and repeatedly like he was thrusting into her, adding to the force as his fingers went in and out of her. "Oh yea!" Kristen moaned softly, "Fuck!" He continued until her moans became too loud and he had to cover her mouth with his left hand, which made him to stop kissing her and also drop her. But he pressed leg against the wall
Chapter 54"Somebody helped them escape.""That is not possible, My Lord," Olga said fearfully, "I would have known if such a things was to happen."Lambert regarded the woman with a dark scowl, his nose flaring with rage, "Then how do you explain that twenty four people miraculouy disappeared from my prison? Where they were heavily guided by the best warriors in this settlement. And no one, I repeated, no one saw or heard a sound as they left this place. How do you explain that over nine of my rogues died in one night without a sound to warn us?" Olga breathed, "We need to calm down and think, perhaps we underestimated them.""We are going to comb this place!" Lambert said in a low growl, "One of you helped them, and since that is what you want, I'll be glad to throw you all to the wolves one after the other until that person confesses!""I think I know how they escaped." A shrill voice called from the crowd."What was that?" All eyes turned to Sheila, a round eyed teenage girl who
Chapter 55He could hear his heart thumping loudly against his chest as he wandered through the woods, he listened for the sound of any heartbeat around, but he could hear nothing. He had gone really far from the pack, but yet his wolf was still revolting inside him because Laurel's scent was still all over him. He needed to wash it off, but he had left the house in such a hurry and… he sniffed. The faint chirping of birds sounded in the distance and in the air, he could smell the fresh humid scent of water, a stream. Following the scent, Earl continued down the path, he had to keep his mind occupied with other things so he tried to trail scents, scents of anything that wasn't wood- or Laurel. He reached the stream in no time and was too pleased to dive into the water, with his clothes and all. He wanted to wipd every trace of her scent off his body, off his clothes, out of his hair. "Damn!" He muttered as the memory of her hands roaming wildly in his hair last night came to him.
Chapter 56Laurel hurried out of the room a few minutes after Earl left, she was scantily dressed but she didn't mind because it was still early and there were only a few maids and guards down the hall. "Good morning, My Lady." A maid greeted. "Good morning. Has my husband left?" She didn't know why she called him that, but it sounded better than 'The Alpha'"Yes, he left already." "Where's my maid?""Who, my lady?""Where's Astrid? She's not in her room." "Oh," the maid bowed again, making Laurel groan impatiently, "Astrid is in the garden."She hurried towards the garden immediately, barely nodding to the greetings of the maids along the way. She found Astrid trimming the flowers in the garden and humming a melodious tune as she did. Feeling gleeful herself, Laurel sneaked up behind Astrid and covered her eyes with her hand. "My Luna!" Astrid shrieked, jumping and turning around. Laurel rolled her eyes, "You are such a joy killer. You should have guessed, or said the wrong an
Chapter 57Earl regarded the girl in front of him intently, his eyes hard and his features unyielding. Over the years, he had learnt to not trust his brother and to always be on the lookout for Lambert's plot, so it did not surprise him that this woman was claiming to help him. But her appearance did not betray any emotions, she had said she was a scorned woman, and she sure as hell looked like one. From the blood clots and the dried welts of blood on her back to the way she shook and her tear streaked face. She looked malnourished and hungry and a part of him wanted so badly to comfort her, but he also knew that all that could be a plot to make her story more believable. "What happened to you?" He asked coldly. She sniffed before answering in a shrill, twisted voice, "Lambert happened to me."He frowned, her words were never clear to him, she had a way of saying things that left one pondering over the meaning. And so far, he had not decided whether to kill her or take her prisone
Chapter 70 “Going somewhere?” Lambert’s voice cut through the air like a blade as soon as Earl and Gregg stepped outside.He was there— and not alone. Earl’s heart lurched at the sight before him. Lambert stood with a smug grin, holding Laurel tightly by the arm. Her eyes were wide with fear, her beautiful face pale and drawn. A group of Lambert’s rogues surrounded them, forming a protective circle around Lmabert to keep Earl or his men from attacking. .“Laurel!” Earl shouted, taking a step forward, but Lambert tightened his grip on her, making her wince.“Ah, ah, ah,” Lambert said, wagging a finger. “One more step, and she gets hurt.” We don’t want that, do we?” Gregg moved to stand beside Earl, his eyes darkening with anger. “Lambert, what do you want?”Lambert chuckled, his eyes gleaming with malice. “Isn’t it obvious? I want what is rightfully mine, I also want to live. And it turns out that to do that, I have to kill. And your precious Luna here,” he gestured to Laurel, “is
Chapter 69The clash of swords and the roar of wolves filled the air as Kristen and Gregg fought fiercely against Charles and his band of rogues. The forest clearing was littered with bodies, but the fucking rogues won’t stop coming. Some of Kristen’s men had returned in time to join the fight though, which was an added advantage. Kristen’s blade met Charles’s with a resounding clash, their faces inches apart as they strained against each other, “You stupid idiot,” Kristen hissed, “I knew you were up to no good!” “You think you can win this?” Charles sneered, pushing against her sword. “You’re just like your father—weak.”Kristen’s eyes blazed with fury. “Don’t you dare speak of him, you bastard!”Charles grinned maliciously, his eyes glinting with a cruel satisfaction. “You know, it was my father who planted the flu that killed your dear old dad.”Kristen’s eyes widened in disbelief, “You didn’t—“Charles smirked, “It was supposed to make Laurel marry me so I could become Alpha. Bu
Chapter 68 Earl was well away from New Knight by the time his wolf started whining and he became restless. He didn’t know what else to do, so he simply dismissed it, thinking it was merely happening because his mate was unconscious. He tried talking to Gregg through the mindlink but nothing was working, it was either his Beta had disappeared from the face of this earth or he simply didn’t want to be found. Not knowing where else to find Gregg since he had combed through almost every nook and cranny of the pack and even sent a few guards to look for him, he simply dismissed Astrid’s words as mere lies to get him to leave Laurel alone with her. Panic. Simultaneously, a sharp pain tore through his heart and he doubled over on the floor, clutching his chest tightly as the pain increased. It felt like someone was twisting his insides with a trident and something was being torn from him, something very essential. Just then, he felt the metallic taste of blood in his mouth and a shrill
Chapter 67"I was really hoping we could hunt together tonight." Gregg told Kristen as she fastened the button on her pants and tucked a few strands of hair behind her ear. "And I just told you I'm not hunting today." She replied with a livid tone. "Then can I stay here with you?" He asked again with an hopeful glint in his voice."No."She said it vehemently, shattering the heart he didn't know he had to tiny pieces. His wolf whined inside him and for some reason, he felt like he had just been rejected by the very person who was supposed to accept and cherish him. "But Kris–" She turned cold eyes on him and he frowned, "Get up and leave, Gregg. I have a lot to do and I can't do that with you here." "But it’s full moon today, we can just leave the world behind and let our wolves have fun. Besides," he nodded towards the spot where he had just taken a considerable amount of her blood from her neck, "You'll need to replenish that." Subconsciously, her hand flew to the spot on her
Chapter 66All through the run back home, Earl was mentally beating himself for his own foolishness. How could he have lost himself like that? He looked down at Laurel only to find her eyes still shut and her lips quivering slightly. He thanked his stars at least that she was moving now, few minutes ago she had been totally unresponsive. This was the first time she was fainting after a bout of sex, and he knew then that he must have been too rough. What was he saying? His wolf was too greedy with her blood. Even right now, he had to try really hard to avoid looking at her neck. The spot where he had marked her was not healing, and the mark, which was still trailing with blood looked like it was almost calling out to him. When he reached the house that night, almost everywhere was silent. He ran inside, looking frantically about for any sign of life, just anyone to take care of her in her condition. But it seemed like everyone had gone hunting for the full moon. "Fuck!" He muttered
Chapter 65 The pack run was all that it should be, thousands of wolves gathered in packs, howling and growling their praises to the Moon Goddess. Earl was expected to address the pack regardless of his anger, and he did. Laurel was there to encourage him even though they were both mad at each other. After the short speech to the pack members warning them to avoid any contact with rogues or hunting near rogue territory, he led Laurel to his secret spot. She followed him silently, without asking any questions, perhaps it was due to the itching in her gum or the heat she was feeling at his nearness.The ache in his heart was still there, only subsiding a bit because of the full moon and the fact that his wolf was slowly taking over his human side.As Alphas, they could control when and how they shifted into their wolf form, except of course when the male was in too much heat and the female was around or when the mate bond was too strong like right now. "Where are you?" Earl mindlinked
Chapter 64"What the hell do you mean by that nonsense you just said?" Astrid did not flinch, she merely watched Earl with cloudy eyes,as if daring him to strangle her. Channeling his wolf, Earl let his eyes watch her fiercely, more like he was searching for something, some sort of recognition or rejection perhaps. But instead of the ferocious urge to tear her apart, limb by limb, he felt a strange warmth in his heart, a need to comfort and be comforted. The desire was so strong that he threw Astrid down with a force that startled even him. Laurel ran to his side and he grabbed her and shoved her forcefully to himself, eliciting a loud gasp from Laurel. "What is wrong with you?" She asked with genuine concern. But even before she could complete the sentence, Earl crashed his lips forcefully on hers and kissed her. Even as she whimpered and her wolf whined in his hand, he didn't stop. Whatever it was that touching Astrid had stirred in his wolf, he hoped to hell that kissing his mat
Chapter 63Two weeks slipped by pretty fast, they were the most peaceful days for Laurel since her marriage with Earl. She and Earl spent most of the evenings in their room, because well, for some reasons, they couldn't seem to keep their hands off each other. Astrid told her once that she was in heat, which usually happens when a wolf finds his mate and accepts the mate bond, their desire for each other during this period is usually almost insatiable.Laurel particularly could not seem to get enough of Earl, and he in turn could smell her heat from as far as he possible. Those two weeks were blissful, almost like it was their honeymoon but there was also this nagging feeling that something terrible would happen soon enough. Which was why Earl and Gregg were working on reinforcing the pack gates and the soldiers in preparation for any possible surprise attacks from Lambert. Hayley was sleeping that evening when Astrid came running into the room. Earl had left a while earlier, so it
Chapter 62She couldn't lose him, Asher thought idly as she ran the rest of the way through the familiar paths. He was the only ticket she had to get out of her misery, the only guaranteed way she could get her brother back. How could he do this to her? She had waited this long to have him, waited this long only to be rejected and treated in a sick manner! He would have killed her if she hadn't come when she did. And the way his eyes softened when he saw her, the way his wolf calmed. Fuck! The sexually provocative way she had talked to him and the way he carried her back to the room. How could he? She clutched her chest as she reached the gate and tried to wipe the tears she didn't know had started dropping with the back of her hand. "Let me in." She told the first guard she met there. "He didn't tell us you were coming." The guard said stubbornly."That is because he didn't know I was coming.""Then why are you here?" "Because I have news, urgent news that cannot wait for the us
