CARMEN POV rated R The grip Mike's hands have on my hips feels so good. It's like he is anchoring me to the floor because he knows I might float away. I am so blown away by the fact Mike hasn't been with anyone. It makes me feel less anxious about what we are about to share. Mike's hands leave my hips and slide up my stomach to my breasts. When his hand squeezes my B-cup breasts my loins begin to blaze with desire.I moan into his mouth when he squeezes my breast a second time and he takes that as a sign because, in the next second, he scoops me up. He walks to his bed and lays me down so gently my heart melts. I keep my eyes on him as he steps back from me and I giggle when I see him removing his clothes as if he is in a race. But my giggle doesn't last for long as his thick muscular body comes into view. I know my mouth is hanging open as I look him over but I don't care. He is practically scrumptious. His creamy skin is flawless and the V-line above his impressive package i
MIKE POV "I don't regret having sex with you. This has been the best day of my life! I messed it up by taking it too far. I can't even properly explain what I did wrong," I say and her tear-streaked face looks puzzled for a brief second. I know she is thinking back to what happened and what she felt when I marked her. I can't believe I lost control of myself. I took away her choice, plus I hurt her. I vowed to never do either of those things and I failed her. Suddenly Carmen begins to laugh while tears continue to cascade from her eyes. I instantly get even more worried. I can't believe I have broken her this completely. "You chose me as your life partner. You marked me," she says happily after a few tense moments and I stare at her utterly bewildered. She wipes her face completely disregarding her makeup. She ends up looking like she has bruised eyes, but I don't care. "Yes. I... Aren't you upset," I ask cautiously and she shakes her head? "Of course not. T
TABITHA POV I take a few more deep breaths before leaning forward to apply my mascara. I have been feeling anxious since Hurst did the ultrasound to measure our baby. He said everything looked good and sealed the gender in a small envelope before passing it to Stanley. Waiting three days to know what was written on that tiny piece of paper has been torturous. I finish my makeup and head out of the bathroom to find Stanley wearing a shirt that has one side pink and the other one blue. I instantly smile and cross my arms. Compared to my simple white dress he looks extremely colorful. "You look adorable," I say with a grin, and he does a twirl with his arms held out wide. "I am so excited to know," Stan says and I nod while biting my lip so I don't laugh. He sees the humor on my face though and walks towards me smirking. "Am I amusing you, Tabitha," he asks while pulling me to him and I can't help but giggle a little. "A little," I admit and he kisses my lips. "G
STANLEY POV"She has brown hair as of right now," Dan says, and Lauren squeals which makes me smile. "When will we get to meet her," Finley asks, and the others second his question."Well, she was a tad bit early, so they are watching her. They don't know she is a shifter, and their worry isn't needed, so who knows. Samantha's incision has confused everyone...its already basically healed. The nurses have all started to gossip. I think Dr. Hurst will have to discharge us sooner rather than later to keep suspicions down," Dan says, and I growl. Great. That's all we need is nosy humans. "I will alert the council. They might send "her" out," I say, and Lauren glances at me curiously for a second before looking back at the phone. "Don't say it like that. You make it sound like the mother Luna is evil," Boyd says, and Dan chuckles. "I think it freaks my twin out that there is a shifter with the ability to alter memories," Dan says explaining how I feel in his basic terms. "I t
"We have been through this; my mate wants to finish reading the diaries before she turns them over. They are the only thing she has that links her to her family. If you would just go over the information, we have gathered for you. You might be able to find something without having to have the diaries," Dan growls, and I pinch the skin between my eyebrows. "Alpha Gray, we have searched everywhere. We have no other way of looking for your mate's lost relative. At this time, we are concluding this investigation. You are welcome to continue your search on your own, but we have done what we can," the assistant says, and Dan snarls. I react quickly before he can bring hell down on us and snatch the phone as he says, "Listen here." "Thank you for your help. We understand. We will continue the search on our own," I say calmly as my twin stares at me angrily. I hang up, and he bares his teeth at me before dropping into my chair. "Dan, I get that you are stressed and missing you
Adrenaline pumps through my system as I race back downstairs. Dan is losing his mind and I don't blame him. If it were my mate and child out there..."Lauren"...My heart stutters in my chest for a second as a wave of pain collides with it. Lauren means everything to me and if I lost her I would become a shell. But nothing is going to happen to Samantha and her daughter. They will be fine. Our pack will remain whole. I will not lose my brother and our pack will not lose it's luna. We have come to far for that to happen. "Dan! I called all the hotels in a twenty-mile radius...Guess who checked into a hotel a town over yesterday," I says, as I jog into the room to see his eyes completely bloodshot, but dry. He spins around and our eyes lock as he looks at me desperately. "Who," he shouts, and my chest puffs with the knowledge that I found her. I can fix this and save the day. I can bring my pack the information it so desperately needs. I am useful here. I'm not just the patheti
STANLEY POV Sam's heart thumps slowly as the blood continues to ooze out of her wound. Something is definitely wrong. Hurst has been working on her for longer than needed for a simple bullet extraction. The sweat on his brow also points to an issue. My eyes flick to Dan again and the worry on his face makes my heart pinch. I've never seen him look so desperate. If we lose her now the pack is doomed. Dan won't be able to lead and the weight of the pack will fall solely on my shoulders...Not something I want. I prefer my place in town. I prefer having my name known for my victories in the courtroom, but I will step up if needed. The Alpha bloodline that runs through our bodies is strong. Even Finley, who is the youngest, would suffice if I should falter. Watching the lose of Sam destroy Daniel would be soul shattering for all of us. Maybe if Samantha does succumb Angelica will be enough to keep him going. Hurst sighs again and we all freeze. My eyes snap to his face and my hear
STANLEY POV The yells and growls coming from Dan's room reach my ears, and I growl lowly as I stand. Sam's angry voice rings out, catching me by surprise, and relief quickly flows through me at the sound of my Luna's voice. Finally! Dan wasn't going to last much longer without her waking up. The beast within me teeters between relieved and protective as we begin to listen in on her harsh words. "Stop speaking in half-truths," Sam growls, and I hear Benji's mate, Mariah, reply lowly. I growl again as my inner suspicions are confirmed. I tense my muscles and wait. I don't want to barge in on the situation since Angelica is in the room, but I need to be ready. She might have arrived in our time of need, but something about her has always struck me as uneasy. Her demeanor is too wild for civilized living. She is almost emotionless at times and seems unfazed by uncomfortable situations. But it's her quick reflexes and movements that make me edgy. As I listen, it becomes
