JamesWe had just left the restaurant. We were satisfied and Sarah felt like a different person. I felt my cell phone vibrate in my pants pocket and I pulled it out to answer it."I'm glad I convinced you. "By her voice, it was easy to deduce who she was. I looked at Sarah who was stretching her arms next to me."She decided on her own. "I replied and Sarah looked at me at the same time."Well, bring her. Lucas will pick them up for dinner "Hang up."Was it him? "She asked."Yes. Said Lucas will pick us up for dinner. She took a deep breath and looked at the floor. "Let's go. Don't worry. "Smile to reassure her.We arrived at the hotel at ten o'clock in the morning. Sarah didn't want to show her nervousness, but I could feel her desperation exhaling in the air. I could see that she was trying her best to overcome the fear and apprehension inside her, but she wasn't succeeding. Maybe you regretted the decision? Wasn't she the one who was going to show who was boss?"What was the part o
JamesWe sat at a table where there was a feast just for us."You did all this yourself? "Sarah asked William with wide eyes."Yes. "He looked at her face and smiled as he sat down. "It's not for nothing that they make me a slave. "Sarah whispered something inaudible in response."The best private cook, as I said. "Stanley started serving. I could see a small smile appear on her mouth as she saw the mix of emotions on William's face.I've just been watching the way she's reacted since Stanley welcomed us into his home. I could already see the results of that. When Sarah was silent, her eyes roamed and observed every new detail as if she were surveying her surroundings. I didn't have to force myself to imagine her as a member of the pack. Even if that might take a while to happen, or never happen.StanleyI was talking with William when I heard a car pull up in front of the house. I already knew that the visit I had been waiting for had arrived."Lucas finally arrived with our guests.
StanleyI know I was supposed to take it easy, but this wolf is messing with a part of me that is extremely stubborn and insistent."I am not going. "She answered firmly without showing any reaction.My smile widened."I can't let a loner live on my territory. You know this very well. And the other Alphas won't be as lenient as I am. I'm just offering you an opportunity so you don't have to make more trouble. Unless you want to go back to your old haunt."No. "He spoke between teeth. I could see his body tense so I took a deep breath and caught his sweet scent. She was ready to fight.That was very interesting..."Well, what I can do is give you some time to decide if you prefer. My proposal is given to Ms. She rose abruptly and my eyes followed her. She looked intrigued and intolerant."I knew that in the end this conversation would be useless... "He went towards the door and I got up quickly. "Don't worry, I'm leaving your territory. You don't have to deal with me anymore. "I contai
Stanley The two had gone out to talk and it had been five minutes since Sarah walked past me reeking of hate and…fear. That last conversation ended up making my wolf agitated. He didn't know exactly why she had reacted that way. I don't know if it's weird for her what we said, but I think the others are more confused than I am right now. Is she problematic? Pff... Sarah wasn't a problem for me. "Do you think she will resist more? Lucas asked. "Come here, what happened in her pack? Noah looked at me as he continued to stand. "She seems very broken to me. He"he looked towards the door. The truth is that even I don't know very well what happened there. Sarah just told me the basics of the basics. "Well, it's a sensitive subject and I don't want you to be talking about it if you're close to her. "They nodded, so I continued. "The wolves there did not treat her as they should have. She grew up in Bruce' pack, but for some reason she wasn't a member. "I growled as I remembered the word
Sarah Stanley walked over to the lamp in the corner of the room and turned it on before looking back at me and sitting down in the armchair. "I was just napping. No problem. "I settled on the sofa and wiped my mouth in fear of having drooled in my sleep. "You must be tired. "He took a deep breath. "You should go back to sleep. "Her black hair was a little damp with sweat and her skin was glowing. "You look more tired than me. Stanley smiled again. This time showing all his perfect teeth. "I run almost every day, that's nothing. "Boasting. Typical. "That must be why you almost caught up with me that day. "I said and he looked at me. "You're pretty quick for a wolf your size. "I tried to inflate your ego a little. If it is possible to inflate more. "Unfortunately it wasn't enough. "She kept looking at me. "I was actually impressed. I apologize for underestimating you, wolf. "I nodded. In fact, it's surprising to hear an Alpha apologizing. Maybe this is the first time I've heard i
I could feel the glare bothering my face. I'd forgotten to close the curtain last night and I wasn't going to do that now. I opened my eyes and quickly noticed that it must still be seven o'clock in the morning. I yawned and rolled over in bed thinking about going back to sleep when I felt a jolt of energy. My wolf was charging yesterday's run. I can't go back to being lazy. I have to exercise. I stretched and got up without stalling too much. I left the room, went to the bathroom, splashed some water on my face and did my morning hygiene before leaving. The house was silent and there was no one around. James must still be sleeping, and I know how he likes a few extra hours, since I don't know what time he went to bed last night. The living room and kitchen were empty and I don't know if Stanley was still sleeping or if he had gone somewhere. Anyway, it's even easier for me to leave my clothes there on the porch and go for a run without anyone around. She didn't like being naked in f
Stanley On the way home from the pack, my mind was racing, but I was looking forward to seeing everyone get back together and explain everything at once. Last night I called some of my wolves and told them I wanted to meet them today at nine o'clock in the morning. I asked them to pass the notice on until everyone knew. Now it must be half past eight and I can't stop thinking about how interesting it would be to have Sarah and James in my pack. I still think that because James was Elija's son, he had a duty to go back to his territory and sort out his family issues. However, since he's here and not there, I'm sorry Elija, but I can't deny that it would be of great value for your son to be part of my pack. I parked the car on the wide lawn and went downstairs. It was my property too. Since not everyone in the pack could afford a home or pay for a place to stay, anyway, this place served to welcome them. It's a huge house. By far bigger than mine. Built since the time my grandfather
JamesI woke up sleepily and looked around stretching. Completely healed at last.I strained my ears, but I heard no noise in the house. I stretched out on the bed and got up. It was probably ten o'clock in the morning and I had overslept. Maybe because that night I hadn't been kicked every minute by Sarah.I stepped onto the floor, put on a shirt, and left the room.Right ahead, I saw Sarah's door propped up. I went to it and opened it before poking my head inside.Sarah wasn't there.I closed and went to the living room, but there was no one there either. Her faint scent came from the porch, and when I got there, I saw her clothes lying on the floor.She went for a run.I scratched my head and turned around and went back inside. I went back to the room and saw my cell phone ringing."Hello? "I said when answering."It's me, Edward."Maxwell? "I arched my eyebrow."Yes, I came to warn you that the cafeteria will be back up and running from tomorrow. Jake called me a while ago and tol
AmeliaWhen Abell finally lay down, I was relieved. He had drunk too much and on top of that he had made me accompany him too. The only reason I didn't drink as much as he did was because Abell rolled over before that happened. Just as well. I hope he won't wake up until tomorrow. I put my hand on my head and sat down on the chair in the bedroom. I took a deep breath and stared at my brother's body on the bed. His back calmly rising and falling. "Peace, finally... " I whispered, sliding my body on the seat until I could rest my head on the backrest. I stared at the window. I was so worried that I didn't even realize it was getting dark. The sky was already dark and I quickly remembered last night. That wolf wouldn't come here again, would he? He wouldn't be so stupid as to do that... I turned my gaze to Abell. 'I'll do this until you change your mind.' His words soon came back into my head and my body stood up quickly. "He can't..." my feet moved toward the door. I still helped
AmeliaThat place was already making me sick. Abell didn't do anything to make this place the least bit presentable and I was tired of trying. Bad people came in and out all the time to talk to him, sometimes they left bottles, butts, and the smell of cigarettes was the worst. So I made a point of going into the room and staying there, reading an old magazine or anything I could find lying around, far from it all.It was more interesting than bumping into criminals and loners who every now and then entered the territory to ask a favor of Abell. And at that my brother was great. He loved leaving others in his debt.The deal proposed by Stanley was that he would let us stay if Abell stayed out of trouble. In other words, the lonely. But of course my brother put on a holy wolf mask as he continued with all his dirt under the covers. "We are not born to follow orders." He always yelled that at me when I tried to remind him of the arrangement. I had gotten tired of it all. Abell is sly and
He walked beside me with his hand clutched in mine. His smile spread across his face as he guided me through the trees. The forest was taking on a yellowish landscape and the ground was already lined with dry leaves. It was a beautiful season, to be sure. And a unique moment in the company of my Alpha."What did you think of Liane?" He looked at me."She's a sweetheart.""I hope she didn't say too much." I took one look at him and smiled."We talked a little and she was great." I smoothed her hand with my thumb as we walked. "I'm sure what I want." His words came into my head and I looked at him. I still wonder when exactly was his decision to claim me...After walking another two minutes in the silence, I found myself near a small clearing. Stanley stopped and looked around for a few moments. He had a neutral expression on his face and seemed to be thinking about something."This is where I first shifted." I glared at him as his words broke the silence. I saw a sly smile appear at th
EthanIf I said that Liane hadn't pissed me off about calling Stanley, I'd be lying. Ever since she said they were at the store, she hasn't stopped asking questions. How she was, how Stanley was, and a hundred more after that.It was obvious that Stanley seemed to have a great deal of attention directed towards that solitary one. Which made me curious, after all, if there was one thing he hated the most, it was lonely. Then why? Was it because of that cunning female?No, our Alpha wasn't shallow like that. There was something else.And when I said that to Liane, she was speechless. She didn't ask any more questions. She just left and came back with two bottles of wine. And when I saw that, I almost had a heart attack. Where have you seen a pregnant woman drinking?"Not for me you idiot!"It was a relief to hear that from her."Do you think it's too boring?" She asked inside the car. Holding the cases of wines in a bag on her lap. The round belly taking up most of the space, the black
After Stanley made delicious sandwiches, we ate and he went back to his room. He said he needed to call Lucas back."So…" I raised an eyebrow at James upon hearing him. "You agreed to stay in Stanley's pack after all."Well…" I took a deep breath. "I actually haven't thought about it. I just...accepted Stanley. "Even though my mate came with a 'pack' package with him.I sat next to him on the couch."And what do you intend to do now?" He looked at me seriously. “Are you comfortable with the idea?” I took his hand and played with his fingers."I don't even know what they're going to think about all this. About me. It must be pretty crazy, right?"Sarah... They don't have a choice." He whispered to me and winked. "If you're Stanley's mate, they'll understand. And you think you're a lousy wolf, but...you're amazing," She smiled and I felt my chest warm at the sweet words. "I'm sure they'll be surprised just to know that you won the Alpha's heart." I looked away when I felt my face heat u
SarahI woke up with my body incredibly calm and relaxed. It was hard to have nights like that, and I don't think I've ever slept so well in my life. When I took a deep breath, I soon smelled my wolf's favorite scent.I smiled snuggling closer to that soft and warm place. Feeling a light caress from my waist to my shoulders. I frowned and blinked slowly. The still blurry image of those pale eyes almost took my breath away. I was leaning on his strong arm, my leg wrapped around his. His welcoming warmth and his smile spreading as he looked at me."Good morning, wolf." He said, still stroking me."Stanley..." I lifted my head off the pillow. Memories of last night flooded my mind again. I felt my cheeks heat up quickly. "Stanley!" He smiled wider and squeezed me into his body. He was stunning with just one leg hanging out of the blanket and his abs defined under the touch of my hands. The image of him stoking my mood first thing in the morning. "We really…" I whispered appalled. "I thou
JamesI had left that restaurant extremely irritated after I saw that woman. My temper has never changed so much after taking a simple whiff before. That Abell guy had something very strange about it, as Stanley had told me, but that woman...Amelia, isn't it?She was alone at that table. Sarah had gone to the bathroom and Stanley ended up leaving to go find her after taking five ages to get back.That blonde woman looked at me from time to time. His cold blue eyes somehow stirred my wolf in a way I still couldn't tell if it was good or bad.I looked toward the restrooms for a moment. No sign of either. Abell isn't at her desk either. There's something going on, isn't there?A minute later I saw Abell walking through the front door of the restaurant. He went to his table and talked with his sister before they hurried out. Her eyes were wide as he grabbed her wrist and practically pulled her away.What is happening?I glanced toward the restrooms and back at them as they left. What's g
"Thanks." I put on my clothes with Stanley's watchful eye.He ended up making great sandwiches. I ate it all too quickly. It was the middle of the night and James hadn't come home yet. I tried not to worry too much, but it was impossible. He had helped me a lot so far and we had created a very strong bond with our wolves. What if he needed help? What if he ended up getting into something really bad with that Abell chasing after his sister?"You're putting on a straight face again." Stanley woke me from my thoughts."Are you sure Abell or Amelia won't cause any problems?" Stanley studied me and ended up pulling my stool closer to him. A nice view of his shirtless body."Yes. Not now that I've brought it to his attention. He needed to. I suspect that bastard has been doing illegal things and getting into trouble on the outskirts of town."On the outskirts?" I swallowed hard as I remembered the day I went there. "What kind of mess?"Street fights." My eyes widened when I heard him."And
StanleyShe looked at me with those wide, magnificent amber eyes as I held her thighs open for me. I couldn't help myself as I rubbed against her hungrily with desire. My wolf was worried that maybe she wasn't ready enough. "Sarah?" I said resigned. I wanted her so much it hurt. Hell, she was so sexy in my bed. And her smell... I was completely itching to tag her. "Is everything okay?" I took aim at her beautiful breasts rising and falling with her uneven breathing. Moonlight bathing your body. As if to bless her. "Everything, I just forgot it was that big." I looked at her and raised an eyebrow as I looked down. My dick? Are you afraid I'm going to hurt you? "My wolf..." I let out a light laugh and leaned my forehead against hers. "I'll be careful. If that's what you're worried about." She nodded, glaring at me. I smiled condescendingly and glued our mouths together again trying to reassure her. I could feel her warm body under mine despite the fear. Her nails her nails lightly g
