Maddox
As I sit with these two clowns I keep playing the interaction between Lyra and this mystery guy. The way he called her Princess it was definitely not a pet name, who the hell is Lyra? My Beta and Gamma decide to go to play pool so I decided to ask Jared.
“Jared.” I called the bartender “Yes Alpha” “Tell me what do you actually know about Lyra?” At first he looks confused but then.
“Well Alpha all i know is what she has told me. She is staying at her Aunt's nest, Tessa i am sure she said. She has an overbearing father and brother but she never elaborated on anything else Alpha”
Tessa, Tessa why is that name sound familiar, I must enquire or put Atlas on to it. She most certainly has pricked my interest even if it is just to avoid her. My wolf is laughing at me, damn animal.

Another sleepless night, tossing and turning even after a run in my fur allowing my annoying mutt to take control ended up on the border to the nest Lyra is staying in. Chaos wanted to see his mate seemingly, fucker is obsessed with the vampire.
Groaning as my cock decides to twitch at the image my wolf keeps flashing at me. Dragging my hands over my face, I think a cold shower is needed before I head to the office . I have a meeting with my father to go over some contracts to do with the security company we own.
I swear if he starts talking about Una again I won't be held responsible for my actions . I had been in my office for an hour when my father arrived , I wasn't even paying attention until her scent hit me and Chaos began growling .
“Father, I thought this was a business meeting?” I say through clenched teeth, my anger starting to get the better of me.
“Enough Maddox, Una is here as she is wanting to have lunch with her intended” My father says as Una takes the seat in front of me and he sits next to her.
“Shame you have wasted your time Una. I actually have a lunch meeting, and as for intended i already said i do not plan to wed anyone except my fated mate” I watch as her smile slips and my father growls at me .
“Una dear can you go find my Luna and i will have a word with my son” Like the good little follower she gets up smiles and nods at me then leaves, as soon as the door closes my father turns on me.
“Now you listen here boy, that girl is a good girl will make a fine Luna” He says as he starts to pace.
“I am sorry father but i will not and i want to make this point not be marrying anyone except my fated mate” My voice starting to rise to emphasise the word not.
Standing to lean on my desk and glare at my father who was now turning purple in the face. Without another word he spun on his heel and left without closing the door. Standing in the door with an amused look on his face was Atlas.
“Don't” He starts laughing “I never said a word but I am guessing it has to do with Una the cling on” He says before bursting out laughing. Atlas has never liked Una, he has always said she is not as innocent as she likes to make out.
“What is it with you and her?” I ask with a curious smirk. “I have heard her talking to some of the Omegas like shit, i am telling you she is fake” He says matter of factly with a shrug.
“You said you had something for me to look into” He says as he flops down on the seat Una had vacated not too long ago.
“Ah yes, Lyra” Is all I got out before a Knowing grin split across his face. “Do not start, I just want some background on her as she is in our backyard” I say with a growl leaving him smirking like a smug ass.
“Well Boss, I myself was a little curious about our little Lyra” Before i realised Chaos lets an almighty growl slip from my throat. My wolf was ready to rip our Beta’s throat out for referring to Lyra as ours, she is not his. Atlas has his hands in the air in surrender with a questioning look on his face.
Groaning, I slump down onto the black leather sofa that sits under the large window, dragging my hand down my face before I lean back and close my eyes.
“Not sleeping again mate?” He says with no hint of amusement in his voice this time. Lifting my head so my eyes rest on him I contemplate telling him the truth but before I can even say anything he beats me to it.
“She’s your mate isn't she?”
I just take a deep breath and nod my head once before the door to my office bursts open and an angry looking Mother is storming in with a look that could turn you to stone. I do not need thi, not today of all days.
“Now you listen here Maddox i did not raise you to be disrespectfully towards women” She says as she glares at me hands on her hips. Standing up, i have had enough of this i think to myself.
“Mother not once have i ever disrespected you or any other female, now please excuse me i have places to go” I say as i side step around my mother. “Not so fast by”She says as her small hand wraps around my bicep and pulls me back towards her with a strength not matched with her tiny frame.
“Una has came all this way to see you, the least you can do is spend time with her” Sighing in defeat i look down at my mother.
“Ok, dinner tonight in town i'll send Dollar to pick her up. Now i need to go” I say as i kiss my mother on the cheek and leave.
Chaos is not a happy wolf at the thought of being in the company of another female thats nnot our mate. Well he will just need to get over it Lyra is not ours and will never be ours. Even as i think these words i know i am not only lying to my wolf but to myself.
As Atlas catches up to me i just give him some side-eye “Dont, i swear i am one second away from killing something” He lifts his hands.
“Man i was just going to ask if you want me to book somewhere?” I stop walking taking a defeated sigh.
“Sure, thanks man. This is getting real tired real quick with Una. I never agreed to this but something has me wondering why they are pushing and what is in it for him and the other Alpha?” I say to Alas as he whistles.
“Shit storm mate but I am sure you will sort it out. Now I shall go look into my Luna”
Before he can move far my hand shoots out and grabs him “Don't do that she is not my Luna, she is a vampire remember that”
He just has a stupid grin on his face before he gets on his bike. Fucking fate has a real sick sense of humour.
Lyra I have felt uneasy since the call with my Papa, Vladimir has been trying to call me but will i fuck take that call. My pompous ass of a brother can fuck off with his ego and self importance. My Aunt has been giving me nothing but shit for the past two days, leaving Nickoli on the drive to bleed out wasn't my best move but who cares. Her husband is nothing but a wet wipe if you ask me, she speaks to him with nothing but disrespect and he still looks at her like she is the best thing ever. Makes me laugh when I think how quiet and timid my mother is compared to Tessa. I Have felt a pull to the moody Alpha and have deliberately kept away from the bar. I have felt his wolf near, I spotted him two nights in a row at the edge of our land. What a magnificent animal so large, I was itching to run my hand through his black silky looking fur. Deciding to head into town for a drink and avoiding the bar I just hop on my bike and fire it up, Nickoli gives me a look from the door but
Maddox I watch her walk out the wine bar and my wolf is furious, wanting to rip Una to shreds for daring to stake a claim on us. “Maddox, can we eat now she has left?” That disgust in her tone is not lost on me. Spinning around I glare at the pathetic female sitting looking at me and for the first time I see what Atlas sees in her. Her fake innocence looking with her big eyes and slightly pouting lips, how she bats her lashes too many times. Looking at her I wonder how I never noticed before. “No, I have things to do” I say and turn to leave when she speaks again. “Maddox you're leaving because of that vampire? My father will not be happy” Closing my eyes i take a deep breath so as not to completely flip out. “Be careful how you speak about her. Is that a threat Una?” I ask as I lean over her. Feeling slightly better when I see her start to shake and fear enters her scent. “Do not push me Una, this whatever this is in your head you think is between us is most definitely no
LyraWatching this huge Alpha stutter and blush as he tries to show me how to play pool . Bending and rubbing my ass against his bulge in his tightly fitting jeans , knowing I have this effect on my tie makes me hungry for him . As he leans over to show me how to position my hand on the table , I get a hint of his blood as his jugular vein is a mere inches away . He smells delicious , the thought of sinking my teeth into his neck as he fucks me senseless is driving me to take in a deep inhale , without even covering it up . Maddox freezes for a second , the low growl in his chest tells me his wolf wants me , my arousal affects him . Turning my head slightly so i can look him in the eye at this close proximity , has his heart rate spiking and i can't help but smirk when his gaze drops to my lips , to make it worse for him i lick my lips . The door to the bar slams open and it is as if someone had poured ice water over my Alpha; he practically jumps back as though touching me burns h
MaddoxI watch in disbelief as she walks away , I could have swore I saw the hurt in her eye when step back from her . I am a fucking dick , why would i do such a stupid thing ? I am still confused how everything changed so quickly . Who was on the phone ? I thought I heard her say the name Vladimir , I am sure that is her brother . I watched as she took off on her bike , the anger that was coming from her didn't seem to be directed at me but she was furious . Chaos my wolf was angry with me for hurting his mate , why cant he see she isn't right for us . Groaning as the last traces of her on the horizon disappear , I drag my hand through my already messy hair . I felt my Beta before I saw him , he stepped up next to me .“Well that changed direction quickly” He says from beside me . “Who is Vladimir? I know you have been doing some investigating” I say to him without taking my eyes off the spot on the horizon where her bike had been . “Vladimir is her brother , seems like your Pri
LyraAs I hang up the phone , my heart is heavy with the fact he wants me . I have things to do. I don't have time for all this shit . Deciding to put Maddox to the back of my mind and concentrate on royalie fucking my father and brother up . The knock at the door draws me back to the here and now . Looking down I tie my robe before opening the door to a pissed off looking Nickoli. “Nickoli” I say as he hands me the phone in his hand .“It is for you” He says in Russian before walking away . “Lyra , you better answer me” My Father growls down the phone in Russian . I pinch the bridge of my nose and close my eyes . “Yes , Papa, what is it?” I say it in English as I know he hates speaking it . “What is it ? What is it ?” He roars down the phone , I have to cover my mouth as I laugh at his rage . “Papa , calm down” I hear something smash on the other end of the phone . Feeling happy that I am rubbing my Father up the wrong way . “Look Papa , I am busy, I am waiting for my food to
Maddox“Goodbye Alpha , please don't call again” She says . I roar in rage as I throw my phone over the room just missing Atlas as he comes through the door . “Maddox” He says with a frown “What the fuck mate , you ok?” He says walking towards me with his hands up . “Do you think I look ok?” I snap at him , then take a deep breath .“Sorry Atlas , she's so infuriating” He just nods his head .“Princess Lyra I assume” I just give him a look , he puts his hands up again . “Did you get any of the information I asked for ?” He just gives me one of his shit eating grins , smug bastard . “Of course , but I am not sure how happy you're going to be” I just pin him with a spill look . “Ok , so she actually left yesterday by private jet” I look at him .“Whose private jet?” I say hoping it's not some guys . “Get this Boss , the jet belongs to her” “Wait she owns a fucking jet?” He nods and I have a feeling there is more . “Not just a private jet , it seems Lyra has an arms business , qu
Lyra As I hung up I hated that I had hurt him but I needed him to back off , I had enough to deal with and right now Demitri is my priority . As we pulled up to my Villa I marvelled at the beauty of the place. I had bought this villa as a base in Spain . Demitri was the one who actually found the Villa , he said the panic room was what sold it for him the fact i would be safe if anything was to happen . My Father and Brother still don't know my company is still well and truly in business . I have some very important customers that appreciate my privacy and discrete way of working . I work with every species , vampire obviously , wolf . Fae and humans . To me money is money I honestly dont give two shits who pays me as long as it's cash . You see that was the mistake my Father and Brother made and continues to make , selling purely to vampires . The pure blood shite they spout pisses me off no end , I am quite sure he would have me breed with my brother if it meant keeping our l
Maddox As I make my way through the nightmare that has haunted me most of my life , something feels different . Turning around I hear a gasp , then my eyes fall on the female I fell asleep thinking about . How the fuck is she here? This is my nightmare , no one else has ever been in it before for the past twenty years of it tormenting me . I go to take a step towards her but she moves back shaking her head . As I go to reach her she vanishes and then I am pulled from my own dream state . Panting heavily , I look around my bedroom . I am soaked in sweat and my sheets are wrapped round my legs , fuck ; i think as i drag my hand down my face . Glancing at the bedside table I notice that the clock says 03.26am , my mind wanders to Lyra . Without any care for the fact that she doesn’t want to see me or speak to me I lift up my phone . The minute the call connects I hear her voice it calms me and Chaos . “Lyra '' I don't know why but my mind goes blank and all I can say is her name
