SORAYA“This isn’t exactly child friendly activities.” I said placing my hands over my mouth. It was getting too much. I could feel him pressing all over my backside, moving side to side and brushing me with his man parts.“You’re right.” he peered from the side and looked at me straight, his eyes piercing mine. I held his gaze for only a brief moment.“We would be extremely quiet then. What we are about to do would definitely not be child friendly activities.” A moan slipped from my lips as he leaned in deeper, my loose night dress nestled on the bulge of his pant trousers. “I want you, right here and right now.” he whispered in a husky tone, growling gently. “Hmm...” I hummed, my knees growing weaker by the minute. I liked when he was sweet, but I loved it even more when he was a little bossy. Fuck, I forgot again!“Xaden,” It was supposed to come out stern, like a wake up call, but instead it sounded like a moan, like I was egging him on.He leaned in deeper, trailing kisses from
JEREMYI stilled myself as I intently scanned the room of the Cafe. Although it was a human tourist Cafe and was safe for my meeting with Celeste, I couldn’t help but scope the place out. It was unlikely that anyone who knew me or knew of me would be here but It was an habit I had developed over the years as Alpha—to assess every setting, for friend and foe alike. The cafe was a homely little place with homely little decorations. It had little wooden furniture and dingy lighting —it was perfect. The Wolves didn’t come here—too loud and touristy. Only silly humans just going about their mundane activities completely unaware of the world they lived in. It was slightly full today and I looked through each booth, checking in on my supposed new partner.I immediately sighted Celeste, sitting comfortably in a corner booth and I remembered everything my investigation had yielded. My blood sizzled and I could feel my heart begin to race— I balled up a fist.calm down JeremyI tried to get m
JEREMY“I guess that works for me Mr Jeremy.” She said finally, resigning to blind trust. This was going to be one crazy partnership. I reclined into my seat as the waiter brought the food.“Here you go Sir.” He placed the plate of the most delicious smelling pie and a steaming pot of black coffee. I was glad. Taking his leave, I looked to Celeste, giving her a look as if to ask if she really wasn’t having anything—she remained adamant. I resigned.“You can talk. I’ll eat and listen.” I set the coffee mug down after pouring out a good helping of the brew. She seemed confused but continued nonetheless.“I need to get back in Xaden’s good graces. Earn his trust once again.” She had blurted out with a little more emotion than she planned.The bitch was hopeless.I stared at her for a good half minute. Trying to reconcile all I knew now with the information gotten from my investigations on her. “And how do you plan on accomplishing that?” I was indeed curious. “You seem to have forgotten
XADENFucking hell. I chuckled to myself still shaken from the surprise, like a deer in headlights. Kaylee nearly caught us literally with our pants down and I had managed to yank myself out of there as soon as I heard her voice. Just a moment longer and who knows what she might have seen.The poor kid. Soraya on the other hand would have to deal with her. I scoffed to myself as I made my way upstairs, still holding my shirt as sweat dripped down my brows. I felt musty. I needed to freshen up. After taking a warm bath, I put on a dark robe and headed to the kitchen for breakfast. I could overhear Kaylee and Soraya laughing downstairs, gently giggling like little girls. My girls. I thought to myself. I was completely filled with happiness and I was content. My happiness and contentment however could not be complete until I knew that they were always going to be safe and I could protect them from those who would always want to bring them harm. My mind trailed back to Celeste and her
XADEN“Well hello Mr. Professor.” Soraya said, fondling the threads on my robe and wearing a mischievous grin. She drew me closer for another passionate kiss. “Lupine would be perfect for a little picnic and Kaylee could play with other kids.” She said as she hugged me tight. She had needed this. “Thank you Xaden. I’ll go get dressed.” And like that, she was gone. Hurriedly making her way upstairs.“And I’ll get the car ready!” I managed to call out after her before looking over to Kaylee. She was playing with her spork, messing up her leftovers.“And as for you little lady...” I begun, picking her up. She giggled loudly.“...we’re going to get you in a nice little dress.” She was on my shoulders again and we headed for the nursery. I could only stare blankly, in total awe, as Soraya made her way down the stairs. She was wearing a bright yellow maiden gown and a sky blue cashmere scarf. Both colors looked marvelous on her and she was radiant. I could fall in love with her all over aga
CELESTEThings had begun to fall pleasantly into place and it seemed like for once, the fates were finally on my side. I thought to myself as I took a swig of scotch before setting the glass on the counter. The bottle was almost empty and I let out a low growl—father couldn’t even afford to replace our liquor anymore.I poured myself another cup and made my way to the couch, kicking off my shoes and reclining into the sofa.The moon goddess was however very gracious to me. Even from the point of despair and sadness, a ray of hope seemed to burst through, casting away the shadows and banishing my worries.Jeremy. I thought to myself trying to remember the series of events that had led up to today’s meeting.I had been so down and bad, almost depressed to an inch of my life—how had things gotten so bad, so fast? I had it all. Everything I could have ever wanted lay in my hands and I lost it. I still could hardly believe it. Where had it gone oh so wrong?Soraya. I bit my lip at the thou
CELESTEThe things I had done for him. He drove me so crazy and what was crazier still, was that I would do it all over again without missing a beat. That was how much I wanted to be with him.My train of thought were completely cut off by movements in the front porch. I heard someone stumbling against the door. It was probably my father again. He had been a loose cannon of recent, drinking himself rotten, only able to feel a little buzz with each binge. He was taking it hard. Business had basically grinded to a stop as he could no longer namedrop Xaden to the surrounding communal packs. He had become a disgrace, a pariah, almost executed even had it not been for the benevolence of Xaden and my own naïvety. The packs didn’t want to work with him for fear of Xaden and the humans would not work with him for fear of the packs. He was lost.It was his fault. I thought callously as I finished the last bit of scotch in my glass. He was a stupid man and the architect of his own misfortune. W
JEREMY“Take me back to the compound!” I said to the driver as I walked out the cemetery gate. I had been quiet in my arrival, slowly creeping up on him, startling him. He was leaning over the bonnet, probably smoking.“Arrgh...yes Sir...right away sir.” He said, dusting off the ashes and crushing the cigarette butt.It had such a rancid smell.“You were gone for quite sometime sir. I was beginning to worry but you’ve warned me never to interrupt you when you visited, no matter what.” He said looking at me and gesturing me into the car as he pulled the door open.“Yes I was and you were right not to disturb me.” I said, looking up at him. “I took sometime because I needed to take sometime and that’s the end of it.” I said, making my way into the car and pulling my phone out from my pocket as he locked the door.“Yes sir.” He said and made his way to the driver seat. I had indeed taken quite some time. The sun had set already and we slowly approached twilight. The autumn falls made e
SORAYAI tried to make a stance and defend myself to the best of my abilities. I wished with more than anything in me that Xaden would find me right now. I could really use the help. I watched as the Rogue continued to run at me, preparing to pounce. He came at me, claws first as he dove over a vehicle that separated us. I closed my eyes out of instinct as I waited for the killing blow. It never came. All I heard was a sharp wince that seemed to come from the Rogue as it collided with something—or someone.I opened my eyes, promptly locating the rogue on the pavement. He was been pounced on by someone. I couldn’t make out who exactly but I silently thanked them—feeling extremely lucky for their timely intervention.I moved slowly towards them and I noticed that it was a woman. She continued to beat the Rogue savagely. Clawing and biting at it with every intention of killing him. When the Rogue stopped struggling, probably from passing out or dying, I tried to thank her for coming to
SORAYAI quickly located the car in Xaden’s parking spot after a brief glance around the lot. It was a little corner spot that overlooked the faculty and I made my way to it before unlocking the trunk. I retrieved two large picnic baskets and set them down gently on the floor beside the car.It was really nice being out of the house again. Kaylee definitely needed it but I may have needed it more. The poor kid, it’s unfortunate she has to grow up in such less than ideal conditions. But at least for today, she could be happy playing in the sun and feeling the wind on her face. The atmosphere was clear and the sky was blue with very few clouds, it was perfect for a little family day out. The morning sun shone brightly, it’s golden rays sparkled with radiance. I felt renewed and content. Life couldn’t be better. Our enemies seem to have all been defeated and the pack finally accepted me as their Luna—I couldn’t explain the feeling I felt. Celeste had been banished, along with her father
MALCOLM“Can I see some Identification?”“Definitely. Uhh...let me check...” I stumbled through my jacket pocket and retrieved my business card. It still had the dark moon insignia from our previous business together.Thank the blessed goddess.She picked up the card and glossed over it intently, resigning only when she found no faults with it.“Well, it seems authentic to me Mr Malcolm. Being affiliated with a pack, especially one as influential as the Dark moon pack, gives you certain privileges.” She started as she folded her arms across her chest. “One of those privileges is free passage to and from the borderlands as long as you don’t plan to stir up any troubles there. However, it is my job to keep you informed on how dangerous a place it can be.” She said, looking up again. “Everyday, we are swarmed with reports of many going in, and only very few returning. Do you understand what I’m saying Mr. Malcolm?” She inquired as she made eye contact with me. I remained silent. I knew t
MALCOLMI mustn’t fail her. I must not fail Celeste again. I thought to myself as I made my way to the corner closet. I had to get her the yellow wolf’s bane even if it meant breaking the rules and crossing the border.Failing her would basically spell doom for me. Money was drying up fast and the business was basically dead in the water. Those spineless cowards! The community Pack leaders and the Alphas. Refusing to do business with me because they were afraid of him. Afraid of that bastard Xaden! I sighed at my impossible situation, knowing it was all my doing. This was all by my design. They would however be sorry in the end. Those spineless fools! When Xaden was finally back on my side. They would then understand the true meaning of pain.I drew out a large suitcase out of the closet. I didn’t know how long I was going to be gone. It was going to be dangerous. But I needed this. Desperate times required that I suck it up and get my ass across the border.What had I been thinking?
JEREMY“Where are you?” I asked, speaking into my phone and attempting to dust off my shoes as I entered the building. It was futile. I disposed of them and put on some hiking boots that had been left by some of the other groundskeepers. He was holed up in the basement. I found a small flashlight and went down the flight of stairs. “Cyrus..” I called out, peering in the dark and reaching for a light switch. Turning it on, the dark and dingy basement came to full view, completely lighting up. I spotted Cyrus sitting in a corner of the basement, clutching tightly to a steel black box. He was bruised and bloodied badly, looking quite roughed up.“Boss..” He managed to call out to me as he fumbled to get to his feet. He placed the box on a wooden slab, turning it to face me.“What the fuck happened, Cyrus?” I looked him over. He seemed to be healing but not quite fast enough. His jacket was completely shredded and he seemed to have lost an eye. I looked over at the box. I picked it up a
