Raiden’s pov

Zev was a damn mess; little mouse snuck off to her room.

This is not how I pictured the rest of the weekend. I thought we’d have a sex fest. I mean, it’s only one weekend, and I want to use every minute of it.

I am aware that they’re both dealing with their crap. As am I, although my crap is a lot less serious than theirs.

To summarize, I don’t think Atalanta is my mate and don’t want to fall in love with her. Which is getting harder by the second. So after this weekend, I’ll need to go back to being her friend, for her sake and mine.

Zev... well, Zev has gone from keeping everyone at a distance to double-penetrating a girl with me. Yeah, he’s obviously going through an existential crisis right now because everything he tried to do has failed. He likes our mouse. It’s clear as day. He’s so gentle with him. It’s not just lust, and it will be really hard for him to reject her if she’s his mate. Which wouldn’t surprise me because of the connection they share.

But then I wou

    Zev’s povWe spent the rest of Sunday training, studying, eating, and walking around the empty school. We all acted like things were fine, but there was a tension there that was hard to ignore.Every time Lana sat near me, I wanted to touch her. But I knew better.We were honoring her wishes and, at the same time, keeping our hearts safe.It had been getting more difficult to keep my dad out of my head, knowing that the closer I got to Lana, the likelier the chance of me losing control one day.Maybe I get lucky, and maybe my mate won’t die, but that’s not something you can predict. It is better to avoid accepting my mate entirely than risking the chance of turning into my father.And what’s to say—something else couldn’t trigger me from turning into a raging lunatic? What if it’s seeing my mate with another man?It’s too dangerous. Even if there's only a small chance of something happening to me, like what happened to my dad, I can't risk it. Who would I hurt in the process? If my dad

  • Hunting for our Mate   41. Obsessed

    Raiden’s povIt’s been torture. For several weeks now, I have had to pretend not to want to pick up our little mouse, throw her over my shoulder, take her to the woods, and take her in the woods, if you know what I mean.Yeah, you know what I mean. I want to fuck her senseless. Perefably with Zev, but at this point I wouldn’t mind some solo action. Maybe just some fingering. One blowjob. One taste of her pussy. Even a kiss, although I have stolen a few pecks here and there, because a man can only handle so much.I’m obsessed.There is no other word to describe it.Okay, there is, but I am not going to say that four-letter word because there is no point to it. Especially not when my birthday is this close.Our birthday, because Zev and I were born an hour apart.He seems anxious the closer we get to our birthday, but I guess that’s for a different reason than me. I know Atalanta wants me, too. Every time we train, I can smell it. Every time I’m near her, and especially when it’s just

    Atalanta’s povIt’s Zev. Kind Stranger is Zev...Somehow it doesn’t surprise me, which makes me feel even dumber for realizing it after so many letters. What did I tell him? Did I write anything that could reveal who I really am?I talked about Archer, and I told both of them I’m an only child.How will I get out of that?And the stuff he shared... Will he hate me for knowing?Will he pull back even more now that he knows I read his thoughts and deepest secrets?If he wanted me to know, he would have told me. I guess we both had our reasons not to share, but mine has more to do with my real identity.But he has such a great support system, yet he doesn’t talk about the things that bother him the most.Does Zev feel like a burden? A failure?It makes so much sense. The teddy bear remark, why he’s so reluctant to date girls. Why he was so worried after we had sex. The way he talks about his best friend. Every letter fit.I feel like such an idiot for not realizing it sooner.I thought ba

    Atalanta’s pov“Did you get me dunk, so I tell you evything?” I said, unable to stop myself from slurring.Suzie and I had dinner together, which turned into drinks and more drinks.She giggled as she handed me a coke. “Drink this. No more alcohol for you.”“They reaaaaally are the best.” I said, thinking back to the best day of my life. “I had sooo many organismesss. What’s that word again?”Suzie giggled even louder, “organ… organisms… organic…? O, orgasms!”“You are dwunk too!” I could barely stand.“Yes,” she nodded and kept nodding her head. “I am.”“Did I tell you they were both inside of me….” I whispered, my eyes wide. “At the same time!”I guess I didn’t whisper that last part because I saw a few heads turn my way.Suzie pouted, “you’re so much cooler than I am. I only had sex like three times, and none of them were any good.”“Poor you,” I said, pouting with my best friend.“I know! That’s why I’m waiting until I meet my mate. And I’m too busy doing, uh.. beta stuff. Oh!”“Y

    Zev’s pov“I would wipe that look off your face, or mom will not stop asking questions.” Raiden scolded me.“What look?” I replied.“Dude. Seriously. You’ve been moody ever since you lost your virginity in the most awesome threesome that ever existed, but lately it’s like it’s gotten worse and now you’ve infected our mouse. She’s barely talking. After finally getting her out of her shell, I would hate for her to go back to being shy and scared all the time.”Raiden wasn’t wrong. She had been more quiet than usual, almost going back to how she was. And it was my fault. Ever since I wrote that letter...It made everything worse.“I’m trying, man.” I admitted.“You can talk to me, you know.” Raiden offered, but I shook my head.“No,-“ Raiden didn’t even let me finish my sentence, growling at my response.“No? What the hell is wrong with you? You’re not just pulling back from her, but from me too. Just because of one weekend? You’re making it mean something. It was supposed to be just sex

    Atalanta’s povI had no clue what they were talking about. My scent? I knew it was a special thing for werewolves, and while I had to admit both Zev and Raiden smell great to me, that’s just because of the perfume they wear.Honestly, everyone here smells better than at home.Maybe because hunters don’t really pride themselves on their hygiene. It’s easier to hide your scent when you’re dirty. But it could be the serum I’m taking, that is enhancing my senses.All week, I have been feeling stressed. Like I had suspected, Archer had told General Sweets where I was heading this weekend, and he had a bunch of plans for me.He said to gather as much information as I could, but not just by talking to people. Which was hard enough as is. But also by making a map of the packhouse and the pack grounds.I don’t know why he thought I would be able to do this. I had no training like Archer had. But he wanted me to count guards and watch the soldiers train. To take down the names of everyone of imp

  • Hunting for our Mate   46. Common Room

    Raiden’s povSuzie made us all remember where we were. While I had wanted to take my mouse home and show her the pack, spoil her rotten, and make her want to stay in ways that would make her scream in pleasure, I had kind of forgotten that being home also meant that I was back to being future Alpha Raiden.A responsible son, an important part of the pack, blablabla.All I wanted to be was a man who was going to share his woman with another man.I chuckled to myself, as I took Atalanta’s hand and walked her up the stairs. I knew how nervous she was, and I wanted her to feel welcome.Not just welcome. More than that. Like she belonged here. Like she deserved to be here.Because I was well aware of how intimidating my pack and family are to outsiders, but once you get to know us, you’ll see we’re kind, funny, and generous with those we love.But if you mess with us... Well, that’s a side you don’t want to see.Atalanta had seen part of that side when I beat Dylan up. Or she had seen the e

    Atalanta’s pov“O, my, Goddess... I am sooo stupid. That was like. Oh, my goddess. That was the dumbest thing I have ever done. Like, dumber than dumb. There must be something wrong with me.” Suzie couldn’t stop pacing, and she was talking with her hands, which she only does when she's agitated. “I am here to strengthen our alliances. I am here as a representative of my pack. The future, damn beta! One of the few female betas, and what do I do?!”I wasn’t sure what she had done, because she wouldn’t stop calling herself dumb long enough to actually admit what had happened.The boys said she smelled like sex, but my nose wasn’t that advanced. Or maybe I had been too preoccupied thinking about everything that had happened since we arrived here.It did take my mind off feeling extremely guilty for a few minutes.Since we arrived here, Raiden had suggested having another weekend like last time. Boys I didn’t know had tried to flirt with me, or was that flirting? It felt more like they wer

    Zev’s pov“So, how did it go this time?” I asked Lana.She smiled at me, a real smile with her eyes squinting and her cheeks so adorably round. “Good. Really good.”She has gone to see her father a few times now, and he has introduced her to the rest as well. Every time, either Raiden and I both went with her or one of us did. This time it was Raiden’s turn, while I kept an eye on the pack with Suzie and Stephen.Things were good. Not just between Lana and her father, but inside the pack as well. Even outside of the pack.We had formed a plan with our allies. We were done hiding from the hunters. We weren’t actively going to hunt them, but we were done playing defense.So the moment a hunter was spotted in one of our areas, we made it our mission to find the hunters and take them out. Soon the hunters started realizing their chances of actually beating us in a fair fight weren’t that high.Taking us out one by one was easy, but taking out an entire pack? None so easy at all.With Lana

  • Hunting for our Mate   135. Father

    Atalanta’s povMy head was still spinning from everything that had happened. It had been hard to focus on the meeting when I was replaying everything Alpha Tharon, my biological father, had said.He is either my dad or my stepdad. No, he doesn’t even deserve the title of dad in any way or form. That man who raised me, even though he’s dead now, still has an effect on me.My mother hated me, so did my brother, but there was something different about the way that man treated me. Maybe deep down he knew I wasn’t his.But now I have a chance. And part of me wonders how badly this will go when another thinks it can’t be worse than what that man that held the title dad all these years did.It can only go up, right?With Raiden and Zev by my side to keep me safe, there is only a chance things will be better, not worse.I am not used to feeling hopeful about my family.But for the first time in my life, I see my value and see that I deserve more than what I had.It felt nice to know that even

    Raiden’s pov“Can I give you a hug?” Alpha Tharon asked Atalanta as soon as we stepped into my office.I growled, “no,” while Zev said, “how do you know you’re her father?” at the same time.We both felt very protective of our mate. None of her family had ever treated her right, so who was to say what Alpha Tharon would be like?From what I knew, he was an okay guy, but that didn’t mean shit right now.Atalanta softly spoke, ignoring us both, “maybe another time? Hugging is kind of new to me.”“What do you mean?” Alpha Tharon asked. “New to you how?”Atalanta smiled, “well, Beta Suzie was the first one to hug me this year. Since then I’ve gotten more hugs than I can count from these two and from some other people, but it’s not something that comes really naturally to me.”“Nobody ever hugged you before?” he whispered it almost, as he stood there staring ahead with his eyes wide.I took my seat, and Zev quickly grabbed a chair for Alpha Tharon to sit in; our little mouse didn’t need he

    hi, I know I left you with a cliffhanger. yesterday, I had an appointment at the hospital to talk to the doctor because the surgery didn't work, and the hernia is back.it's painful at times, like mild cramps, but I am getting a ct scan next month, and following that, we'll discuss a possible new operation. Anyway, my mind had been a bit busy with all that. I'm kind of claustrofobic, so I'm not looking forward to the ct scan machine. it's also just the world right now and especially the US that's on my mind. we have our own right-wing politicians, but nothing like what's going on now. from my writing, you should know I don't support hate, discrimination, and just plain evil behavior like what's been happening. I just hope it's not going to be as bad as it looks for the next 4 years. it's scary. I mean, I'm from the city where Anne Frank lived. and her book is now banned. All of it is just making me worried and when I can’t concentrate I can't write. but I'll keep trying.

    Atalanta’s povI did not want to go to this meeting, mostly because I didn’t want to sit across from different alphas, betas and lunas who might hate me because of who my mother and great uncle were.They might think the same way our pack did, before they got used to me.‘Used to you makes it sounds like they just accepted you, because they didn’t have a choice. You’ve proven yourself to them and shown the pack who you really are.’ Artemis reassured me.Raiden had forced me to attend and when I pleaded with Zev, he had told me he agreed with Raiden’s choice. I wasn’t just there to represent the Crescent Moon pack, I was there because I have valuable knowledge of the hunter community. Because I have trained to be a hunter and I have witnessed what the general and the doctor were doing first hand.I had been the one to free the prisoners and while there testimonies would be read today, it was important for someone to be here that had seen how they were held and in what conditions.It did

    Zev’s pov“You two can leave. Little Mouse and Zev, can you two stay behind? I’d like to talk some more.” Raiden said after we finished our meeting.It was like nothing had ever happened, well, to most people. But Raiden still had his moments where he felt angry or sad or guilty. We had a good talk just a few days ago about what it does to a person to feel so helpless and trapped.He would brag that he had got rid of his shit in just two weeks, as if it were a contest. But everything is a contest to an alpha, and I wasn’t bothered by it. I was just glad I got my friend back.Stephen, Suzie, and the three of us had a meeting to discuss the future of the pack. Stephen, Lana, and I had spoken to the council we had put together several times to see what the pack members thought could be improved.Raiden and Suzie had been out in the pack themselves as well to talk to the people, and he had several discussions with nearby packs to see how we could defend ourselves better. Not just against h

    Raiden’s povBeing inside Atalanta felt like coming home. I might have said it as a joke, but it truly felt that way.And not just because her pussy felt like a warm wet hug for my dick. It was more than that.We hadn’t discussed me not being able to get hard. It was like this big elephant in the room. Because we all knew it. It was obvious. I’m usually the one in charge, dominating my mate, while Zev is the one who is more soft and doesn’t mind being told what to do.But lately all I’ve been doing is eating my mate out or working her pussy or ass with my hand. And trust me, it’s not a bad job. Not at fucking all. I love being the reason my little wolf has an orgasm.I love seeing her squirm, hearing her moan because of me.And I didn’t even mind being the only one who didn’t get to finish.It just didn’t feel complete. Like I was failing at another thing.Because that’s what it comes down to, right? I failed as an alpha, as a mate, and now even as a lover, because I can’t even fuck my

    Atalanta’s pov“You know how long it took you to open up, so why do you expect Raiden to do it so quickly? It’s been less than two weeks.” Grace told Zev, while I sat on his lap.She had come into the office to discuss something else, but the conversation inevitably led to Raiden.Things hadn’t felt right between the three of us.And it wasn’t just the lack of intimacy; it was like there was a wall between us. It scared me to think what he was hiding.“He tells me everything, Grace. Even stuff I don’t want to know.” Zev replied.She chuckled, “yes, my son does have a tendency to overshare.”“We’re just worried,” I explained.“I understand that. But he’s not acting out. He’s working and behaving normally, albeit a bit down,” Grace answered.Zev sighed while running his fingers past my arm. “You don’t see it, but he’s different. I can feel it through the bond, and I know that holding it in will only make things worse.”“You’re projecting a bit, assuming that Raiden deals with things in a

Please, just get to work.”She shook her head and tutted, “look, you had your rest for the last two days. Me and Ven held down the fort while you got to sleep in, -“I stopped Suzie, “I never asked you to do that. You offered. No, you more than offered it. You pushed.”Suzie scoffed, “really? Goddess, Raiden. You’re a horrible liar.”“Liar?!” I growled.“Yes!” She shouted at me. “You think nobody can see through this act?! Everyone can see you’re miserable. Goddess, we can feel it! Your mood is like a dark cloud hanging over everyone and making people walk on their toes around you. It’s annoying, and it needs to end!”“What the fuck, Suzie. You’re exaggerating.” I rolled my eyes at my beta. “Let’s just get to work, please.”“No, no, Raiden. Not, what the fuck. Talk to me, or someone... Do something.
