Dahlia's POVHis words resonated inside my mind, playing over and over again even as I slept there with his strong arms wrapped fully around my body.His breathing was even as he slept peacefully behind me. The warmth of his body pressing into me kept me warm and his breath would fan across my neck making wisps of my hair shift.I have never felt so comfortable in a bed in my life than right here at this moment. Every tiny shift he has made would cause sparks to erupt across my naked flesh. It was something that I was becoming obsessed with, so much so that at times I would vaguely move just so he'd pull me back into him so I could get that rush from his touch.When he inhaled deeply, his nose pressed deep into my hair pushing into my neck it sent a shiver down my spine that led straight between my legs."Good morning."His voice was low and gravely as he wrapped his arms further around me while hugging me rather tightly."Did you sleep alright? How are you feeling today?"I could tel
Alpha Damien's POV My head was spinning after everything that happened last night, then this morning. Dinner was amazing, she did something for me that I hadn't even realized I was missing so much. Then seeing her wolf, meeting Alanah officially for the first time, was just mind blowing. The sheer size of her took my breath away, seeing her run, how fast she could go, everything, it was like nothing I'd ever seen before.Then rogues attacking when I was with her, again, had my mind going in circles. We haven't had rogue attacks in years, yet now, two within a week was unheard of.They seemed to be going right for her too, which had me utterly worried. Has me thinking too, would her own father send rogues to my pack? Does he know that she is, in fact, here?I know the man is a bastard, but would he actually do something so sinister to his own child, embarrassed or not, that seems to be extreme even for him. I also don't want to count anything out either so despite me not wanting thi
Levi's POVWhen I watched Chris writhing in pain as he curled into a ball on the cold concrete floor that used to basically be my sister's prison, I was worried.Not for him, I could care less about the pain he was experiencing after what he did to my sister, no I was worried because if he was feeling what I prayed he wasn't, it could mean that someone was hurting Dahlia.My heart thundered in my chest, blood rushing through my ears blocking out any true hearing as Tyr howled deeply in my mind showing his own agony.What if someone was causing her pain, hurting her. It's only been a week and I don't see her giving herself to someone else so easily. Of course, I could be wrong. Look at what she had gone through. If I had to deal with what she did, with this asshat, I may be willing to be with someone else. She did break her side of their bond so any feelings she may have been holding onto for him are gone.Please Selene, let it be the latter. The sheer thought of someone touching her
Levi's POV Continued After I was done speaking with him, I could see that what all had happened had basically drained the life out of him. From the looks of it, his wolf let him feel everything while sitting back and watching him go through what he put their mate through.I decided to call on that Omega again, knowing that someone needed to bring him some clothes, food and water. I didn't want to let anyone else know about that room so I told her she could bring him the necessities then leave immediately afterwards.She obliged but I could hear reluctance in her tone at the same time. Maybe after everything that happened she actually does feel a twinge of guilt for allowing the things that happened, happen. Or I could be trying to find the best in a shit situation, nonetheless she was the one that was going to tend to him considering.I needed to be up and performing my Alpha Heir duties so me stating down there to nurse an asshole wasn't exactly in the cards, not that I wanted to ca
Dahlia's POV I stood there, standing next to Damien as he held the phone to his ear. There were no voices coming through the other end, just shallow breathing along with muffled footsteps.Damiens eyes were hard as he looked away from me, you could tell he was listening intently to every sound he could hear through the line until he looked over at me again.His eyes softened as his lips turned up into a small smile as he moved the phone from his ear."Are you sure this is safe for you to do?""There is no one in this world I trust more than him."He sighed, his tension he had been holding onto left his shoulders as they visibly dropped as he held the phone out to me.I looked at the phone, taking it as my hand shook before I looked up at him."I'll give you a bit of privacy. Alexi and I will be right here in your old room if you need me, but I will be leaving the door open alright."I nodded to him as I put the phone to my ear."Levi?"Nothing, just a small, what sounded like a gasp,
Dahlia's POV Continued He walked slowly to me from the fireplace. His steps seemed calculated as he made his way towards me. When he reached me, his body towering over mine when a smile took his features as he held his hand towards me so I could hand the phone to him.When I handed it to him he leaned down then kissed my head before bringing it to his ear."I'm going to text you a number, it's to a girl here that Dahlia has taken as a friend. Her name is Rose."My eyes went wide as he spoke. Intently I watched as his eyes sat locked with my own."She is fully trustworthy and you can text her when you need Dahlia to call you. You need to get yourself a phone that cannot be traced, one your pack will not know of. Can you do this?" There was a silent moment that made my heart start to race. As if he knew that I was feeling a bit anxious he wrapped his free arm around me, pulling me into his chest. I laid my head onto him and his own heart beat helped calm my own."Yes, that sounds good
Alpha Damien's POV When she cried into my chest I could feel how torn she was about everything. Missing and wanting to keep her brother close while at the same time she didn't want to leave.If things were different, if our packs were allies, we would have found one another as mates and she still would have had to leave her pack. Yet, she still could hold a relationship with hers without having to hide away with no one knowing where she was.Her brother could visit, or she could travel home. Considering how close our territories are, she would have been able to go back and forth on a regular basis without issue after dealing with any Luna duties she may partake in.Instead she is trapped with the knowledge that she can't have that, instead she has to wait to see what happens when her brother takes control of her pack. Yet I worry that if her father does know that she is here, he may not let Alpha Heir Levi take that spot with the fear that he will change things between our packs.I c
Alpha Damien's POV Continued The way she swirled her tongue around the head of my cock was overwhelming my senses, but once she pulled it completely into her mouth then slid down over my shaft as her hand stroked me at the same time.I felt my eyes roll back in my head as my fingers slipped into her hair, gripping her tightly that I made her gasp, her lips lifting off of me momentarily before wrapping back around me.I didn't want to be rough with her so I forced myself not to buck my hips up into her or shove her head down but when she reached up to my wrist with her free hand, grabbing it tightly as she indicated to me to push against her I did until I hit the back of her throat making her gag.She didn't stop though, no, she kept going, suckking harder and faster. She continued stroking me when her thumb started caressing my balls forcing a lewd moan from me while I felt everything begin to tighten. I was so close but when I went to pull her head back she shoved my hands away befo
Alpha Damien’s POV Her hips jerked up harshly as she sucked in a sharp breath. The small sounds she would make as she became closer to releasing was intoxicating. The scent of her, the taste, it made my mouth water. Pushing two fingers inside of her tight channel she screamed out, her fingers trying to tangle in my hair but she had trouble reaching me over her bump. I could hear her frustration as her hands slammed down onto the bed harshly. A ripping sound came telling me that her nails were shredding through the blanket beneath her. Her thighs began to shake as I pushed my fingers deeper inside of her. The walls tightening around them when she attempted to close her legs around my head. Her body trembling as I forced one leg to the bed, pinning it there as I continued to lap at her. Her moans and screams were music to my ears as she came undone. “Oh GODS! I…. Ohhhh… can’t keep… going!!!! FUCK!!!” She came so hard her entire body went stiff as her legs twitche
Months later Alpha Damien’s POV Waking up to feel her soft breath fanning gently across my chest made my heart flutter. No matter how much time passes with her by my side I still feel like it’s the first day again. That moment when I scented her in the woods changed my entire world. She sees now how truly strong and beautiful she is. It warms my heart to feel her continuous outpouring of love she exudes daily. My mind body and soul truly feel at peace now that we have fought our way to live peacefully within our pack and her previous one that Levi, her brother, runs with love like we do. As she shifted her body slightly I felt a wave of movement roll across my back making me jump slightly as I turned to look down at her. Her eyes slowly opened, her eyelashes skimming so softly across me before she graced me with her smile. “Did they wake you again?” She asked with a gravely tone to her sweet voice. I couldn’t help but smile as I reached down to caress her bell
Dahlia’s POV Continued Over the next few weeks I watched my brother come back and forth to see Rose. They began dating but today is the first day that she will be traveling with Levi back to my old pack. I stayed with her last night to help her get ready but we ended up not even getting any sleep because her nervousness was so strong she fidgeted the entire evening. “Please Rose, just try to sit down. I told you that everything was going to be alright.” “What if everyone there hates me?! I’m not a Luna like you, I have no idea how to be what you are to a pack. Let alone a pack of that size! I’m completely out of my depth here Dahls!” Her pitch raised so high as she said the nickname my brother used for me it made me wince slightly before I stood in front of her grabbing her shoulders. “The pack is going to love you Rose. You are compassionate, caring, loving, and you never judge anyone. Look at us. What you did when I came here was something I don’t even know if I
Dahlia's POV Continued Once I left my brother alone with Rose I walked through the hall leading to the stairs before stopping. Everything has changed so much for me in what feels like a blink of an eye. I looked up the next set of stairs to where my room sat before turning to look down the other set of stairs where the front doors sat leading outside and into the woods where Damien found me. Little pieces of memories flashed through my mind of that day. The way I felt lost and scared honestly. How I managed to escape my wedding just to venture too far out of my own territory and into that, if what I believed at the time to be enemy territory. I'll never forget the way his eyes darkened when he looked down at me. Or how I swore I should fear him yet instead was intrigued by the man looming so dangerously over me. It's crazy to me to think about the fact that he knew I was meant to be his yet I didn't. How it could have felt to stand in front of your second chance mate only for
Dahlia's POV Continued "Oh my sweet Rose, he had to. He didn't leave you. He needed to bring back the warriors from his pack. He's Alpha now and has no choice." I held her out from me so she would hopefully look at me, which she shakily did. "He was absolutely torn apart having to leave here. He didn't want to until you had time and chose to see or speak with him. He is broken right now." She sniffed then wiped her face with the sleeve of her shirt. Her eyes swirled making it so I could finally see a bit of her wolf sitting there. "Broken?" I sighed, my head tilting to the side as I nodded with a small tip of my lips. I actually felt a bit relieved by the way she was acting. She was scared about this entire situation, but I can see she wants him still. She's curious about him and now I can see that her wolf is as well. They haven't shut put the idea of him. I don't want her to live in fear, but my brother would never hurt her. The thought of him getting rejected b
Dahlia's POV "So you have decided to take Nico as what then Levi?" "As my new Delta. Honestly, I have no idea who to choose for my Beta. You are the only person I have ever trusted to that level before. Everything was planned out for such a long time that I have no idea where to truly go from here now." I wrapped my arms around my brother, hugging him tightly before we pulled away again. "Have you tried to.." "I spoke with her, Levi." The previous day I went in search of Rose. Of course I could have just mindlinked her that I wanted to see her, but I chose not to. I needed to walk around a bit after Damien kept me within the confines of our room for 48 hours. I was feeling a bit stir crazy and so was Alanah. She had been pacing continuously for hours on end feeling trapped. Instead we ventured out, walking around the pack house in search of my best friend. When I did find her, which wasn't exactly hard for me to do, she was out in the small garden she had shown
Levi's POV By the time I made it back home I was a complete wreck. My wolf wasn't speaking to me despite the fact that it wasn't my fault our mate ran away from us and locked herself in her room. Honestly he was upset that I had the audacity to leave pack grounds without trying to see her again. I understood. I felt the pang through my chest within every single heartbeat I managed to pump. My heart shattered when she looked at me with those big beautiful wide eyes. That recognition wasn't what I had wanted. However, knowing more about who she is thanks to Alexi, I understood why she ran off, even if I didn't want to accept it. The bitter feeling of rejection lingered throughout my body, but she needed time. She hadn't outright rejected me so I held on to a bit of hope. Being back in this house feels surreal though. My mother's body had been burned and now sat on the mantel inside the office that used to hold my father. It was a blatant disrespect for him to do su
Dahlia's POV Continued I am unsure when I fell back to sleep but waking alone on a tattered bed was a bit depressing. I felt for Damien but even his scent was a bit weak meaning he had been gone for a bit by now. As I forced my eyes to open I was blinded by the sunlight seeping through the window. Squinting away I rolled to my side only to wince slightly from where the stitches were still woven through my tattered skin. Forcing myself into a sitting position I brought my legs over the side of the bed before my feet touched the ground. Unlike my dream of the past, the floor held a warmth to it. Stretching out my toes I slowly stood myself up. Sore from whatever position I managed to sleep in I stretched out my back only to hear a loud popping sound that made me sigh out in relief. Trudging myself into the bathroom, not bothering to turn the light on just yet, I relieved my aching bladder before standing in front of the sink to look up into the mirror. My hair was atro
Dahlia's POV The moment his lips touched mine a fire ignited deep within my soul. Like everything made sense again in my life. The feel of his rough calloused fingers lightly trailing down my naked back sent a shiver run along my spine. His hands gripped my ass as he hauled me up into his arms, my legs wrapping around his large body. I felt small in his arms. Like he could shield me from the world if he chose to do so. I was safe, protected, wanted, loved. All the things I have truly ever wanted to have or feel my entire existence. He didn't kiss me hard, nor did he hold me tightly. I could feel the worry slipping through the connection we shared at the weakened state I was still in. He was gentle as he carried me across the room to the shredded bed. The bed I managed to destroy all because of stupid dreams of a past I will never have to go back to again. I was truly and unequivocally free for the first time ever. He was gone. The man that did everything in his power
