PUNISHMENT. One word but it makes my core tighten. The weight of his gaze feels suffocating, pressing down on me like a leaden blanket. My heart hammers in my chest, each beat a thunderous reminder of the impending punishment looming over me.I try to summon the courage to speak, to protest, but the words stick in my throat, choked off by the intensity of his stare. There's a primal edge to his presence, a raw power that sends a shiver down my spine. Shiver I don’t like at the moment. Alpha Caden’s expression is unreadable, his features carved from stone as he stands before me, a silent sentinel of authority. I can feel the tension crackling in the air between us, thick and palpable, as if we're locked in a battle of wills.I know I've crossed a line, pushed him too far, and now I have to face the consequences. But as much as I try to steel myself for what's to come, there's a part of me that can't help but feel a flicker of fear at the unknown. I don’t know much. With a heavy sigh
Aurora’s POV Fear, excitement, and a strange sense of anticipation intertwine, creating a potent cocktail of sensations that leaves me feeling dizzy and disoriented.But even as my protests slip through my lips, my heart starts to thump wildly, and a new pulse I've never felt before pounds behind my clit. In a sick, twisted way, the idea excites me, igniting a fire within that I can't seem to quell. It's as though a primal instinct has been awakened, urging me to surrender to his will.Alpha Caden looks bored, like I'm too stupid for him to engage with, but there's a flicker of something else in his eyes—a hunger that mirrors my own, albeit in a more predatory manner. It's unsettling yet strangely exhilarating, and I find myself nodding before my brain can fully sign off on it. It's as if there's a visceral urge deep within my being, so desperate that it speaks on my behalf, urging me to succumb to his desires. To whatever this weird thing is about between us. I want to explore it m
Aurora’s POV “Again."I said through gritted teeth though I feel like a woman possessed. A groan rumbles deep in Alpha Caden’s chest, and my pussy clenches around it. Without another word, he kicks his foot against mine, forcing me to spread my legs wider, and then his belt hits again. It was so unexpected that I let out a growl I didn’t know was hanging in my throat. He did it again. This time, I jerk forward, moaning at the feeling of my nipples rubbing against the lining of my worn tank top. My pussy aches for the same type of friction, and I find myself on my tip-toes, arching my back toward the belt."I think you like being punished," Alpha Caden drawls in a voice that drops with sex. He kicks my foot again, and this time, l open my legs so wide that a cool breeze coasts over my wet lips. Behind me, the floorboards creak. Then I feel a whisper of a breath against my clit; a graze of stubble against my inner thigh. My eyes widened. Oh, holy crow. Alpha Caden is on his knees be
Alpha Caden’s POV I didn’t have to search long to find Aurora's tattoo shop. It seems like everyone knows her around here, and she even named her tattoo shop after our pack. Yet, she claims to hate being in Brown Wood. She sputters out every nonsense to make me angry but I don’t mind. Not after yesterday. As I approached the shop, I noticed the familiar sign with the name "Brown Wood Tattoos" emblazoned on it. It felt strange seeing her name associated with our pack, especially considering how much she seemed to resent her ties to it. Or is she just doing it to make me hate her? I stepped inside and the atmosphere was bustling with activity, customers chatting eagerly while waiting for their turn, and the sound of buzzing tattoo machines filling the air. I made my way to the counter, where a couple of Aurora's employees were busy attending to clients."Is Aurora in?" I asked, trying to keep my tone casual despite the urgency I felt to speak with her.One of the employees, a young w
Alpha Caden’s POV I lay back on the bed, I watched Aurora move around the room with practiced efficiency, her focus on the task at hand. Despite her efforts to drown out any potential conversation with the buzzing of the tattoo gun, I couldn't help but find amusement in her determination.I made no move to remove my shirt, knowing it would only add to her frustration. Instead, I remained still, observing her from beneath hooded lids. Has she ever seen me without a shirt? The thought brought a smirk to my lips as I watched her work.I know without an ounce of doubt that she’d love what she would see beneath all the suits and all. Maybe she had seen me that day without a shirt at the library but she must have forgotten all about that encounter after she got drunk. She needs to see me in this dimly lit room. Despite the tension between us, there was a certain comfort in her presence, a familiarity that I couldn't quite shake. As she prepared to begin the tattoo, I settled into the bed,
Alpha Caden’s POV I was about to remove my shirt when one of Aurora's employees, the guy with a shaved head, entered the room. His gaze lingered on me, intense and almost predatory, making me pause mid-action. I wanted to raise an eyebrow but don’t want him to hate me more than he already does. Sensing something more than just a professional interest in his stare, I decided to keep my shirt on for now, inwardly amused by the situation. He is definitely gay which means he won’t make any moves on my mate. He got lucky. He could keep his head intact. He cleared his throat, breaking the tension. "Uh, Aurora, your next client is here," he announced, his tone tight with apprehension.Aurora glanced at him, then at me, her expression unreadable. "Cancel the rest of my appointments for the day," she said curtly, her voice tinged with irritation. "I'll deal with this."The way she said "this" made it clear she considered me a nuisance to her existence. I suppressed a smile, knowing I was ce
Aurora’s POV I traced the contours of his back with my eyes, a tingling sensation spread through my body, igniting a fire deep within me. Something tingles in my veins that doesn’t feel like my own blood. This is so weird but I have no control over it whatsoever. I want to feel it all. The whole thing. His powerful frame, every muscle defined and pulsating with strength, seemed to exude an irresistible allure. The smoothness of his olive skin, devoid of any imperfections, only intensified my desire. He doesn’t have scars which is because he is a powerful werewolf that could heal in second. Lost in the moment, I found myself captivated by his sheer presence. The memory of his commanding demeanor from our previous encounter flooded my mind, sending a surge of anticipation coursing through me. Despite my efforts to maintain composure, the primal urge within me grew stronger with each passing moment.The realization that this dominant large man had taken control and punished me with su
Alpha Caden’s POV I observed Aurora's wide-eyed expression for a moment, a flicker of amusement dancing in my eyes before I hopped down from the bed with ease. The hunger gnawing at my stomach reminded me that I needed sustenance, and the idea of finding a good human place to eat appealed to me.I stood before her, the tension between us palpable yet unspoken, I couldn't help but feel a sense of liberation. Being in Aurora's presence, away from the constraints of our pack and the responsibilities that came with it, felt like a reprieve—a temporary escape from the demands of my position as alpha.The notion of spending more time here, exploring the human world with Aurora by my side, sparked a flicker of excitement within me. Perhaps this unexpected detour held the promise of an unexpected adventure, a chance to break free from the familiar confines of pack life and embrace the unknown.With a determined glint in my eyes, I turned towards the door, ready to embark on this impromptu jo
Alpha Caden’s POV Ten Years Later. Her smile illuminated the room, a beacon of warmth that drew me in like a moth to a flame. I watched as she moved gracefully, every motion sending a surge of electricity coursing through my veins. When she stretched against me, her body arched with a sensual grace that left me breathless.I buried my face in her hair, inhaling deeply, savoring the intoxicating scent that enveloped me. Her laughter was like music to my ears, a sweet melody that echoed in the depths of my soul. "I need to send a thank-you note to the company that makes my shampoo," she teased."It's not your shampoo that smells so good," I replied, my voice husky with desire. "It's you. You're delicious." I pressed my lips against her neck, trailing soft kisses along her skin, reveling in the taste of her.Her fingers tangled in my hair, pulling me closer as our lips met in a slow, tender kiss. Each touch sent sparks flying, igniting a fire that burned hotter with each passing momen
Aurora’s POV The room was filled with the beeping of monitors and the quiet hum of medical equipment. I lay on the hospital bed, sweat trickling down my forehead, every muscle in my body straining with the effort of bringing new life into the world. Caden was beside me, his strong hand gripping mine, his presence a steady anchor amidst the storm of labor.“You’re doing amazing,” he whispered, his voice low and soothing. “I’m right here with you.”I focused on his eyes, drawing strength from the love and determination I saw there. With each contraction, I pushed with all my might, the pain intense but the goal in sight. Time seemed to blur, each moment stretching out endlessly and yet passing in a heartbeat.The doctor’s voice broke through the haze. “I can see the head. One more big push, Aurora. You can do this.”With a final, desperate effort, I bore down, feeling a rush of relief as the first baby emerged into the world. A lusty cry filled the room, and tears sprang to my eyes.
Third Person POVAfter the tension of the night eased, Lilian and Caleb found themselves tangled in each other’s arms on the bed. Caleb held her close, his warmth and steady heartbeat lulling her into a sense of safety she hadn’t felt in a long time. The bond between them was undeniable, and despite the confusion and complications, there was a deep sense of rightness in being together.Caleb whispered soothing words into her ear, his voice a balm to her frayed nerves. Slowly, Lilian's eyes grew heavy, and she drifted off to sleep, cocooned in his embrace. Caleb watched her for a while, his fingers gently tracing patterns on her back, until he too succumbed to the pull of slumber.They slept deeply, their bodies and souls finding solace in each other’s presence. As the first light of dawn filtered through the curtains, Caleb stirred. He looked down at Lilian, her features softened in sleep, and felt a surge of protectiveness and love. Carefully, he disentangled himself from her and p
Third Person POVLilian lay in her bed, staring at the ceiling as the minutes ticked by. Sleep evaded her, her mind a tumultuous sea of emotions and thoughts. Her wolf paced restlessly within her, agitated and yearning. She turned over, trying to find a comfortable position, but it was no use. The bond she felt with Caleb was like a persistent itch she couldn't scratch, a need that gnawed at her insides.With a frustrated sigh, she threw back the covers and got out of bed. The cold floorboards against her feet did nothing to soothe her restless spirit. She wrapped a shawl around her shoulders and quietly slipped out of her room, the moonlight casting soft shadows in the dimly lit corridor.Her steps were silent as she made her way through the palace halls, the silence of the night amplifying the sound of her own heartbeat. She knew where she was going. There was only one place she could go. She needed to see Caleb. To feel his presence. To understand what had happened between them.
Aurora’s POV I found Caden pacing in his study, his face a mask of anger and frustration. His twin brother and his daughter—how could things have spiraled out of control so quickly? I could feel the tension radiating from him as I approached, my heart aching for him."Caden," I called softly, but he didn't stop pacing.I moved closer, gently reaching out to touch his arm. "Caden, please. Sit down. Let's talk."He halted, looking at me with stormy eyes. "Fox, you don't understand. My own brother... with my daughter. How could he do this? How could she?"I guided him to the couch, my touch gentle but firm. "I know you're angry. But getting worked up like this won't solve anything."He resisted at first, but I coaxed him with soft touches, my fingers brushing his arm, then his cheek. I leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to his lips. Slowly, his rigid posture began to soften. He sighed heavily and allowed me to lead him to sit down.As he sat, I settled myself on his lap, facing him. "Cad
Third Person POVLilian sat on the edge of her bed, the room still reeling from the emotional storm that had just passed. Her eyes were red and puffy from crying, her body wrapped in the sheets that had witnessed the chaos. She felt hollow, her mind a swirl of confusion and heartache.The door creaked open, and Aurora stepped in quietly, her expression filled with concern. She crossed the room in a few quick strides and wrapped her arms around Lilian, holding her tightly. Lilian stiffened at first, then melted into the embrace, the dam of her emotions breaking once more.Aurora stroked her hair gently. "Lilian, I'm here.It's okay. Let it all out."Lilian clung to Aurora, her sobs coming hard and fast. "I felt it, Aurora. I felt the bond. We're truly mates, and I think I already like him. I feel like I can't live without him. But now he's madto me, and it hurts so much."Aurora held her tighter, her own eyes filling with tears at seeing her friend in such pain. "Oh, Lilian. I'm so s
Third Person POVCaden approached Lilian's bedroom with a heavy heart, ready to explain everything to his daughter. The events of the past week had been tumultuous, and he needed her to understand why he hadn’t told her about him and Aurora. But as he reached for the door, something felt off. The door was slightly ajar, and the scent of sweat and sex hung thick in the air.Pushing the door open, Caden’s eyes widened in shock at the sight before him. Lilian was in bed, naked and tangled in sheets, with a man beside her. His heart dropped when he recognized the man—it was Caleb, his twin brother. Rage ignited within him like a wildfire."You son of a bitch!" Caden roared, storming into the room.Caleb barely had time to react before Caden's fist connected with his jaw, sending him reeling back onto the bed. Lilian screamed, pulling the sheets up to cover herself as the brothers clashed violently."What the hell are you doing?" Caleb shouted, scrambling to defend himself as Caden swung
Third Person POV Caleb rises to his knees, rips open the zipper on his trousers, and fists his cock in his hand.Lilian stares at it with wide eyes, her hammering heart skipping a beat, then starting up again, beating even faster. Thick and veined, the shaft juts out proudly from his fist. The crown is fat and red, the slit on top glistening with a drop of wetness.His cock is massive, almost intimidating in size. "That look on your face is a bloody nice compliment," he growls. Then he positions himself between her spread thighs, sliding the head up and down through her pussy lips, wetting it.Lilian gasps, managing a breathy, "Condom?""Wasn't planning on having sex today," he says through gritted teeth, staring down into her wide eyes. "Still time to say no, Lilian."She's so turned on, she can barely think. "You said you were clean?""Aye. I promise.""Then fuck me, Caleb. And don't you dare hold anything back. I want everything you have to give me."His grin looks feral. With a s
Third Person POVDelirious, her eyes rolling back in her head, Lilian gasped, “What the hell is happening?” Maybe she is drunk. “Your mate is fingering your gorgeous wet cunt, that’s what,” Caleb growled, his voice dripping with lust.“Goddess! Caleb!” she cried out, her body trembling.“Aye, lass. Say my name just like that when you come,” he breathed, his accent thick and intoxicating.Rocking his hips into her so his erection was pressed right up against her hip, he kissed a path down her neck to her chest, then licked at her cleavage, dipping his tongue into the cleft between her breasts. When she groaned again, he lightly bit down on the swell of one breast.“I need to taste every inch of you,” he whispered, his voice dark and commanding. “I need to bite every perfect part of your skin. I want to fuck you and spank you and make you take my cock down your throat. I want you to tell me every filthy thing you want me to do to you, starting right fucking now.”He pulled his fingers
