I take my time while showering. The workout has left my body with bruises. Where the water flows, it stings a little, but the ice-cold water feels amazing against my naturally warm skin. A longing is growing within me. In the space, I can smell her. I turn off the water, wrap myself in a towel, and dash outside to meet Lisa. She is standing in front of the door."Dinner is ready." She tells me Her eyes don’t leave mine.I move quickly to be next to her. Superhuman speed does offer certain benefits. I kiss her while lifting her chin. She moves in and forces the door shut. I give her a passionate kiss while pressing her up against the door. Other than our time spent training together, we hadn't had any intimate moments. When we had the chance, we sneaked a few kisses. We were both afraid to express what it meant for us to be doing that. She is a hunter to some degree, and she cannot easily adapt to my being a werewolf so quickly.But having her tongue in my mouth has only aroused me mor
Several times these past weeks, I have considered knocking on Marc’s door when everyone was asleep. But the thought of Erica held me back. I didn’t know what kind of person she was until Marc confided in me a few days earlier. I knew he was hesitant to approach me. Today, when I saw him smile at Tia and me, something moved in me.I couldn’t help but walk to his room, using dinner as an excuse. Everybody is already at the table. Looking at him in the towel reminded me of our time in the hotel, when we were pressed against each other. I feel a desire I can’t fight any longer.I am on top of him now on the chair, the fabric of my pants rubbing against my skin. My body begins to move as he makes his way deep inside of me.I slide my hair to the side, exposing my neck to him. I know what it means, and I think I am ready now. He looks at me briefly. "Are you sure?" He says, "This can wait." He insists. I keep him waiting for an answer.He lifts my weight on his dick and bites me near my sho
Lisa and I get dressed and head downstairs for dinner with everyone."Hey, bro. Come sit next to me. I made mashed potatoes; Lisa helped me. She cooked everything else."I take a seat next to her, and Lisa sits across from me."Yes. Eat. You are going to need energy. Haha" Ash smiled at me. She always knows what’s happening. It’s hard to hide anything from a witch."Mom. When will you tell us what you and Ash have been planning? When do we get to go out?" Lisa asked."That eager to go out?" Inquired Ash."I am sorry, Ash. I didn’t mean it like that. Your house is lovely. But at some point, we’d have to go back to our lives.""We will. First, we have to wait for you to be ready. Your hunter gene has already kicked in. And now we must wait for the mate bond to kick in."Lisa looked at her in surprise. "You know?""Oh, sweetie." "Don't forget I am a warewolf.""Will I wolf out now, too?""Probably not. The wolf gene has turned recessive due to your hunter genes. Yet once the mate link t
Mom kicked me, and I fell to the ground.Despite my best efforts, I am unable to successfully repel her assault.Over the past four days, all I've done is become wounded and worn out before going back to bed.The cycle continues the next day."Enough, Mom. That’s hurts.""You can complain or learn to defend." She said.I stand up straight.I take a step back to escape being attacked by her as she launches herself at me.She kicked me again, threw me to the ground, and had me pinned down in the split second that followed."Urgh." "Come on now." "You can do this," she insists."I don’t think I can." "Can't you have Marc train me?"I had barely managed to get the words out when I felt incredibly weak in my legs. Unable to move further, I stay in my position and cry in agony.""Sweetie, are you okay?""No.. something… can’t..ahhh…" "Oh no." She exclaimed. It must be the mate bond kicking in, but your hunter gene is suppressing it."Marc. Ash. Tia." She yells for help, carrying me i
It has been three days since Lisa woke up. Ash’s magic has her in an induced coma. Ash warmed me to the fact that there was only a fifty percent chance that my baby would wake up. But those odds were better than her going into a lost battle. I know she would never accept staying at Ash’s forever. I had no other option but to comply with Ash’s plan."The blood stone is the only thing that can control a werewolf and can channel her mating bond." She had told me."A blood stone is lethal for a werewolf," I reminded her."That’s why I am hoping that her hunter half will dominate and protect her. This is our only chance, V."I knew she was right, but my maternal instinct warned me against it. The blood stones empower her hunter identity. She’s only a child. I should never have sent her to the city. Her stubbornness always has me at a loss.Now I am standing in her room again, hoping for her to wake up."Coffee." Marc stretched his arm towards me and handed me the mug."Thanks.""She’s waki
As I recovered, everyone was seated next to me. Their expressions suggested that they had not slept well. How long had they been waiting for me to wake up?I reached out my arm towards Mom, and she quickly grabbed hold of my palm."Rest, sweetie. You need it. I am so glad you are okay.""But what happened?"“For the time being, we had to restrain your abilities with a bloodstone." Ash spoke."Hunters frequently employ bloodstones to weaken monsters. Not that you fit the mold.""I get it. Don’t worry." I assured her."I didn’t know if it would work. But we had to do something." Ash tried to reason."It’s okay. I am fine. Thank you." "Rest for a day or two, and when you are better, we go." Mom announced. "Go where?""Back home," she said."But what about Tobias and his army?""If he brings the war to us, we won’t step back. We may have a fighting chance now. And if he doesn't, then we leave the city and live to go where your dad and I started a life together.""It’s unlikely that Tobia
"We are going to need a car to get out of here." Mom stated the obvious to everyone at the dining table."All our phones are switched off. We can’t have anyone track them. How did we get a car?" asked Tia. "I know a friend’s number. I can use Ash’s phone to call him." Lisa suggested."I don’t have the need for a phone." "I've never needed one," declared Ash proudly."Then, I am going to walk out of here to the nearest public phone and make the call," said Lisa."I will come with you," said Tia."But you need to get some sleep if we are leaving in the morning. Besides, if we all went, it would just attract attention. I’ll be back soon."I answered with irritation, "I'm coming with you. I was certain of the person she was about to phone without a shadow of a doubt. It was intended for Chris. He seemed to be involved in her life in some manner constantly. The thought of the two of them together did not appeal to me. I was aware that I need not worry about her. Yet, I have observed Chris
Marc and I walked beside one another out of the house. It was the first time we had stepped out since we got here. “So you remember this guy’s number by heart, huh?” He said annoyed. “This guy? It’s Chris. And you know him.”“Yes, I remember what’s his face.” I felt a wave of jealousy in me through the mate bond. “You don’t have to be jealous, you know? He had I have been friends for a long time. It has never been anything more.” I tried to assure him.“I am not jealous.” He lied. “Can all werewolves feel the mate bonds like this? Also, you said once you could sense my arousal, is that true for all?”“No. Only the ones with alpha blood. My grandfather was an alpha. Your mother was the daughter of an alpha, so you can I can. The betas and the lower the ranking werewolves can’t feel these things.” He answered as well as he could.“Lisa, this is Chris..”“I told you not to worry about him. I trust him. And you shall too.” I tried to distract him again what questions. “All this must
