Lucien's POV Alisha followed behind me as I led the way outside, neither of us speaking but true to her promise she stayed within the required distance but no closer. Once we got to the changing rooms she moved quickly to enter inside , once we were in wolf form the chance to speak was gone. I couldn't let that happen, there was so much between us that needed to be said and ignoring it was just going to damage any progress."Alisha, could you wait a minute please." She stopped dead in her tracks at my words, I could see her back stiffen. "Could you please face me, I have something to say. " that was a rule after all.She hesitated at first but did as I asked, her eyes focused on my face and for a moment I was lost in those eyes. Those emerald green eyes seemed to peer into my soul , making me forget what I was going to say. I began stepping closer to her automatically , not even aware I was doing so until she put her arm up to stop my forward movement. "What did you need Lucien"
Alisha's POV Lucien insisted that I shift back into my wolf form before his guards arrived, it went without saying that he didn't want them to see my naked body. Usually something like that would set me off, I don't like anyone trying to dictate what I should and shouldn't do. But this time I didn't argue with him, he had just killed four male rogues to keep me safe. He was ruthless in his attack and I just stood there watching as he tore them apart with ease. I was so impressed he could ask me anything right now and I'd do it without arguing. It didn't even bother me he killed four men, of course they were in wolf form and didn't look like men. Maybe if they had been in human form it would have bothered me , but right now I didn't give two shits about them. They wanted me dead and now they are. Reluctantly I pulled out of Lucien's embrace and shifted back into my wolf form. He stood naked in front of me without a hint of modesty. Nudity wasn't an issue with these people that was
Alisha's POV His eyes were fixed on mine, watching me with the intensity of a predator . The normal naturally dark brown eyes were darker now and the whites were barely visible. The emotions he felt at this moment were raw and open , he wanted me and he wanted me really bad. That seemed to trigger a response from deep down inside of me, a need that I have never felt so strongly filled my mind. I wanted him too. Any thoughts of rules were driven from my mind at that moment. Fuck the rules I wanted my mate and my primal instincts weren't going to be denied. This was more than just lust, it went way deeper than that.Moving slowly towards the large hot tub of water I began to peel off my shirt, dropping it at my feet carelessly as I stepped forward. My eyes never leaving him, my desire for him leading my actions as I had his total focus. He knew I wanted him just as badly as he wanted me. Stepping out of my shorts , kicking my feet free they were quickly left on the floor the same as
Alisha's POV Mom wasted no time dragging my ass down the hall, pulling on my wrist like a child in deep trouble. I guess that isn't too far from the truth right now. Except I'm an adult now and have been living on my own since I was eighteen. I didn't want to be treated like this.I dug my heels in and stopped dead in my tracks. One hand holding on tightly to the towel wrapped around my body as I tugged hard to free my trapped one. "Mom stop, quit pulling on me like this. I can keep up with you just fine. " This wasn't effective as she paid no attention to what I was saying and kept tugging on me hard. "I'm not a small child and don't want to be treated like one""Let's go" her voice was firm and I knew she was still pissed off about everything. Her fingers dug in even harder as she attempted to get me moving again. "Act like a child and get treated like a child"How was I acting like a child, because the way I see it my actions were pure adult until she blasted into the situation.
Alisha's POV The heat between our bodies was intense, nothing I have ever felt before in my life had even came close. It felt as if my clothes would melt off. Hot damn this man can kiss and when his tongue slipped into my mouth it was all over. I was ready and willing to go for it right here in his office. I don't give two shits about any rules anymore and the only thing I was interested in was finishing what we started last night. There was no stopping us now.I was so unaware of my actions I didn't even realize we had moved until we were on the couch that was tucked in the corner of his office. My body and his moved on autopilot now, eager to explore each other and fulfill this burning need deep inside. I was on fire and he was the only thing that could put it out.His body was pressed down on mine as we let our passion free. Hands roaming greedily over each other , touching and exploring intimate places. Moans echoed in my ears as the excitement built. I didn't think about what I
Alisha's POV "Are you going to get up" I poked Lucien's arm hard with my fingernail, yeah I know it hurts but it works so well."Ouch, I'm going to have scars on my arms from you doing that. " He complains with a whine, pulling the blanket up to his shoulder. " I wasn't planning on getting up , it's Sunday and we can sleep in. Go back to sleep""I'm not tired anymore and since I'm up you have to be too. " I attempt to pull the blanket covering his arm back down , it wasn't going to move with his tight grip on it no matter how I tugged on it."Stop that" he growled out at me in a playful tone"What if I don't" I shot right back at him , tugging even harder on the blanket now. "Last warning" was his replyThis was going to be fun and I knew it, there was no way I was going to let it go now. Using two hands now I threw all my weight behind it and pulled hard. He let go of the blanket at that moment and I flew off the bed onto the floor. I landed on the thick rug next to it with the bla
Alisha POV Exhaustion doesn't even begin to describe how I feel right now. This trip was one big emotional roller coaster from start to finish and I'm not even sure if it's really finished yet. I still have to deal with those liars who call themselves my grandparents if they ever show their faces again. I just hope that the pack in Barcelona has located them and locked them up already. I can't deal with this bullshit right now.The only good thing I can say about them is they really helped me with my first shift and got me up to speed on this whole werewolf thing. But all thoseslies they told me about my biological parents was the worst and really twisted my emotions in to a hard ball of shit. What a fucked up family my sperm donor has but learning I was the product of a rape was the most hurtful to me mentally. That made me feel really sick inside,like a diseased tumor forced to grow in that poor woman's womb. How do I learn to accept that piece of knowledge , it just so bad a th
I know I'm being an ass about it but I'm just tired and pissy right now. My friends really have done a lot for me and we have had tons of fun together. There is no way they weren't real about some of the things we shared together. I can't remember how many times we went clubbing and traveling around seeing the sights as a group. I just have to get my mood adjusted and only sleep can do that for me at the moment.I let all the other passengers who are in a bigger hurry than me leave first, I hate being pushed and shoved when I get my carry on out of the overhead bin. Besides I have to wait for my big suitcase to be unloaded and nothing gets done too fast around here. Saying thanks to the attendants I head down the passageway with the last few who like me just waited for the rest to leave first.The sounds of people voices fill my ears and it's over powering as I enter the larger part of El Prat airport. Even at 6:30 am it's busy here and the people are everywhere, the one bad thing abo

I began stepping closer to her automatically , not even aware I was doing so until she put her arm up to stop my forward movement. "What did you need Lucien"
Alisha's POV Does he want me or not?"It's wouldn't be fair to my daughter to be left in limbo waiting for your decision. " Dad's expression not changing. "You can't expect her to put her life on hold until you make up your mind. I need a better answer than that.""I understand that sir but it's not that easy a decision to make right now." Lucien is right, this isn't a easy decision not with the shit storm I've created around here, he had a hand in part of that too. "I know the two of you started out with a lot of issues but my wife and I think this is something that can be worked through . But it would take a commitment from the both of you to do this." Mom nods her head in agreement with him.Lucien turns his head and looks at me, the first time since we first came in the room. His eyes meeting mine again and I can't read his expression. His dark brown eyes stare into mine with intensity."What do you want Alisha? This isn't all on me, you have a choice in this matter too. Do you
Alisha's POV Why did I agree to do this?Oh that's right my Mom didn't give me a choice.My shoes made a small click each time the heels made contact with the hardwood floors with every step. The sound echoed in my ears and I chose to focus on it instead of the drama I knew was ahead of me. Trust me there is drama coming and everyone involved knew that. None of us where going blindly into this but I know it was set up with good intentions in mind. My parents wanted me to be happy and felt this was the right path leading to it. The fact Lucien went along with it was surprising, but I'm guessing he must have figured it was going to happen sooner or later. Bite the bullet and get over it kind of thing. We are going to be in his pack for who knows how long and it was unavoidable in the long run. He couldn't hide forever in his office and I couldn't in my room. We wouldn't be able to avoid each other the entire time. Maybe after tonight we can tolerate being around each other at times,
Alisha's POV Being the good daughter I am, at least most of the time, I did as I was told sort of. I really just wanted to hide my head under the covers and wish this whole mess away, but that wasn't going to happen. The "rest" I was ordered to do ended up me just lying on the bed staring at the ceiling contemplating my life's choices up to this point again. Something that I have been doing a lot recently, still no magic answer was found as to the why me question. My pity party ended when a soft knock sounded on my locked door. "Time to get up sweetie, I will be back in an hour to help do your hair. I have the cutest outfit for you to wear too." I could tell she was excited and I half wondered what kind of cute outfit she had picked out. Her definition of cute and mine were totally on opposite sides of the country. I chuckled to myself as I thought of some of the outfits my sister and I were forced to wear growing up. I have never been the frilly girl but knew how to put an outfit t
