"Do you want something to drink?" Hayden asked me, but I refused to say a word, not only because I did not want to give him any attention but because I might start cursing him in front of my babies.He chuckled. "Get her some wine and water for me."The lady nodded, and then made to leave, but I called her name."Shantel, Get me water, not wine. Maybe his lying ass is trying to get me drunk."When I finished talking, I looked at my children in shock because I had forgotten that they were here for a second and cursed. But thankfully, they were busy watching a carton and had headphones on."Thank God," I murmured, but when I looked at him, his face was grim and his eyes were hardened.""No one is allowed to talk to me like that, not even my mate, because...""Your mate?" I asked. "More love like your prisoner and the last thing I want to do is talk, see, or smell anything related to you."His mouth curled in what could be called a smile, and the way his eyes were glistening, I knew he was going to say something scandalous."You didn't have a problem seeing, touching, and inhaling my scent in the bedroom. If I did not know, I would say that you love my touch," he said, winking at me.My breath got caught in my throat, and I wanted to scratch his eyes off or kick him, but since I could not, I decided to hurt him with my words."It could have happened with anyone; it has nothing to do with you.""Excuse me?" He asked immediately."I said that anyone that was at least a bit good-looking could get the same reaction from me; it had nothing to do with you; I just wanted some tumble in the bed," I replied."So you go around fucking people?" he asked calmly, but there was nothing calm in his eyes."Don't judge, so you won't be judged," I answered with a smile, then leaned back into the chair.He stood up immediately and then looked at the children before he sat back down. I was about to provoke him again, but his phone started ringing. He picked it up after looking at the screen and picked up the call."What?" He asked the person on the phone.I heard the person talk about some gala that he is expected to attend tonight. "How come I am just finding out about this now?" He asked the caller.After listening for a while, he cursed, then said Cecelia's name before he pulled the phone from his ear."Watch your mouth around the kids," I scolded, then took the water that Shantel was offering to me and downed it.He did not reply to me but instead motioned for Shantel to leave with the water. She rushed away immediately.He kept quiet, so I looked at him to know what was wrong, and he looked like he was mind-linking someone.Soon he was done talking, then he started pressing his phone. I kept watching him, and then I started to feel drowsy, so I slept off.I felt someone trying to lift me, so I pushed the person immediately and grabbed the pen knife from my pocket, ready to fight."Calm your horses, woman. We are here. Is it either you come down or I will leave you on this plane?"I looked around, and my children were not inside the plane."Where are they?""Outside," he said, then headed out.I rushed after him, but when I got outside, this was not our pack."Where are we? Are you trying to kidnap me, you asshat?"He grabbed my throat and pushed me against the car. Air escaped my lungs due to the force."I have let you run your mouth since we were on the plane, but remember that I am still your Alpha when you open your mouth or..." He trailed off and did not complete it."Or what? I challenged."Or I will put your mouth to good use," he growled out.My eyes widened, and I tried to push him away, but I could not. His body was so pressed against me that I could smell his spicy cologne, and his lips were almost on mine."Hay, den," I whispered, trying to get my sanity back.He smirked, then pressed his lips against mine, nipping at my bottom lip. I closed my mouth, refusing to give him access, but he poked my ribs, and when I gasped, he slipped into my mouth.He started to kiss me hungrily, and I could not do anything but return his kiss with the same fervor. When he placed his hands on each side of my backside while kissing me,I moaned out, then crossed my hand on his neck so I wouldn't fall off, and started to run my hand through his hair, but he seemed not to mind. He continued to relentlessly assault my mouth, then he spanked my butt twice and soothed it by rubbing it gently. The sweet pain went into my head, and moisture pulled in my temple of pleasure.Hayden knew how I loved to be touched. He knew I enjoyed pain and pleasure, and he was using it against me, and I was letting him do that.He lifted me off the ground, and with his hands on my bottom, he ran inside with the speed of lightning, one of the perks of being the Alpha.He dropped me on the sofa, and then his lips were on mine again, kissing and teasing me while I ran my hand over his muscles. He kept kissing my neck and started to nip the place that his mark used to be in, and for a reason, I did not know, whenever his mouth touched the place, it felt like a silver chain was being placed there.I screamed out in pleasure, then covered my mouth with my hand immediately because I did not know if my babies were near.He grabbed my hand, then nipped my ear before he whispered, "Don't ever cover your moans again."I shook my head, then whispered. "Our babies.""Every room is soundproof," he growled out, then slapped my core.It tingled. Pain and pleasure swept through me, and I gasped out loudly."Plea..se, Plea..ase," I begged, but he took his damn time.He yanked my dress off, then pushed down my bra and closed his mouth on my nipple, sucking like his life depended on it. I held onto his head and watched as he assaulted my boobs. When he tugged at it with his teeth gently, then soothed it gently with his tongue, I arched back with pleasure.He played with my breasts one after the other, taking his damn time and driving me crazy. He knew that my boobs were a sensitive area for me, and he was using them against me.At the back of my mind, I could feel sanity trying to slip through, but maybe it was the mate bond, or maybe it was because it had been so long since I had sex, or because I could not bring myself to say it out loud because if I still had any feelings for him, then I was insane.He must have noticed that my sanity was trying to return because he slapped my core, then drew my pants and let them slam against my skin while still playing with my boobs.I moaned out because I loved a bit of pain with my pleasure. "Reagan, Reagan!" I screamed and thrust my hips out. I tried to get him to understand what I wanted even without voicing it out, but he continued to suck, ignoring me.He kissed a wet trail from his boobs to my stomach, then to my mons.I started to thrash, then I gripped his biceps because I needed to hold on to something so I would not fall. My nails scratched his back, but he did not complain and had never before. "Whose body is this?" he asked me."Hmmm" was all I could say because I was floating now.He slapped my thighs, then whispered. "Whose body is this? Who is fucking you?"I rolled my eyes and said, "My body and you are not doing the fucking yet."He pinched my left nipple, then slapped me on the cheek.I smiled because I was expecting it, and he was never afraid to dish it out."You have a big mouth on you; maybe I should put that to good use," he whispered, then slapped my lips next.I bit his finger, then whispered, "Promises, promises, yet no action."I felt very satisfied when his lips curled and he tore off my pants."I will make you pay for that," he whispered.He was pushing my leg wider when his phone started to ring. He ignored it and kissed my clitoral area.I moaned and gripped his head, but then someone started knocking on the door. I was too far gone to care, and I wanted him to ignore it, but he stopped."Cover yourself," he said, then smirked.I wanted to smack him, but more importantly, I wanted to smack myself for pulling my pants down for a man who was kidnapping me.He picked the torn clothes from the floor, dumped them in the closet, and slipped my pants into his pocket. Before I could protest, he opened the door."Mom, Dad!" Elijah and Lily screamed, then ran to me and Hayden.Hayden kissed them and slipped out with the girl who led the children to our room, leaving me to answer our children's questions.They knew where we were; in one of Hayden's houses in Boston, Shantel had told them that he had a meeting, and after that, he would take us home. So the question was how many houses he had and if our home was bigger than them all.My answer was that I did not know, but I would make sure to ask their father."Ok." They pouted."Mom, come and see how big the television is." They shouted and led me to the sitting room.While they were watching their show, I slipped away to take a bath, and while I was raiding Reagan's closet, I got a message from him. 'Don't try anything because you will not succeed.'I chuckled because I definitely will, and I will succeed.
After researching on the internet for ten minutes, the only thing that I got was to create a diversion to escape, but first I went to look at the number of guards that are outside the house.I stood up from the chair and handed Elijah the apple that was left on the plate, then covered their scent before I headed outside. There were thirteen of them now, and this time, ten of them were at the gate while three were moving around the house. "Hey!" I called one of the wolves, and he came closer."Do you know when Hayden will be back?""No, Luna," he answered."Oh, that's too bad," I answered, clutching my stomach."Is everything all right, Luna?" He asked, and his tone was dripping with worry. ""Nothing too serious; please tell Hayden to get me pain medication on his way here, but he should not rush; I don't want to disturb him," I said with a smile and entered the house.This was to keep Hayden from coming back immediately instead would stop at a pharmacy to get drugs.Next, I found m
Even though the weather was cold today, somehow I was sweating. I kept cleaning my hands in my dress because I was trying to find a way to keep myself busy. Hayden was in front with the children, while the guards secured us from all corners as we headed into the pack house. Where his stepmother and her son lived too. Suddenly, it felt like five years ago, nervous and giddy, Alex, the cleaner's daughter, entered the house with Hayden's hand on hers. So trusting, I believed the smile on their faces and shared a hug with Ann, who told me to feel free to call her mother that day but warned me not to call her that a few days later when Hayden was not present. But I was a fool then, and I endured all that, telling myself that it was an honor to be a member of this family.I sighted the swing that I always came in the evening to clear my head and blame myself for wanting my fantasies instead of making do with what the moon goddess had given me, but after every sacrifice, all I got was a be
"I... d...id no...t" I answered while my cheeks flamed, and I tried to push away from him, but he held me back."Don't get defensive. My dick has been hard since I got in bed with you, and your body touching mine all night has made it worse." He whispered and demonstrated by rubbing his dick on my thighs.I felt a tingling feeling down there and a moan trying to come out, but I pushed it back, indicating that I was not interested."Not interested in that," I replied and turned to get out of bed, but instead, he turned me and started rubbing his hard d*ck against my ass and his hands on my boobs.He tugged my nipples, then gently massaged my left boob first, then my right.It felt so good, so I moaned because he knew how to make it good and where to touch it for it to be good.I leaned my head on his neck while he rubbed me, laying kisses on my neck. Things were going right till my eyes landed on the clock, and it was a few minutes after eight, I shook my head to be sure because I had
He gave me water, but I grabbed another one from the table. He threw the remaining pancakes into his mouth and stood up."Don't forget the dress; you need it for tonight. The servants will take care of the children all day; if you want them to, I know you would love to take them along to shop for the clothes. So I selected some guards for you; take them along."He went over to them, then bent and said, "Give Daddy a kiss."They kissed him, then he stood up. They kept waving at him till he went out of the door. After we finished eating, I offered to help, but the servants would not let me. So I just took my twins to our room.After I taught them for a few minutes, they started to practice their math by themselves. I kept watching them, then I fell asleep.I was woken by a loud knock on my door. I thought that it was Shantel checking to see if he could give us anything, but when I opened the door, I saw Ann, who had a big frown on her face.Hayden is gone, so she no longer needs to pret
She led me into the dressing room and then pointed at the chair.The dressing room was big; two gigantic mirrors were at the front and the back of it. A chair to sit on, a big shelf to keep things on, and some kind of hanger to put your clothes on. "Luna, please sit while we get the clothes the Alpha personally selected for you." "He selected clothes for me." She nodded. "Yes, he narrowed it down to five custom-made gowns, Luna."My eyes widened. "Custom made?""Yes, Luna."Custom-made gowns are usually very expensive, and Hayden loved to buy the ostentatious ones. I can remember how much he spent on the gown I wore when I was shown to the pack. He splashed ten million dollars in one silver-long, tight dress. And all through the night, when someone complimented them, I tried to resist telling them the price."How much does each one cost?"She shrugged. "Please do not ask me; I am forbidden by the Alpha to tell you that. But I can get something to drink if you want."I shook my head
"I know you don't like me, and being in this house is like being in prison, but out there, pretend that you are in love with me and can't do anything without me," Hayden whispered without turning.Pretend to love him? I did love him once, with everything I was, and looking at him trying to mask that I hurt his feelings, those delightful lips pulled into a frown, I do think that those feelings are growing again."If it is too hard of a request for you to do, then I can offer you something—maybe a diamond? Money? Or maybe I can pretend to be anything you want me to be for a day?"Give me something. He already spent enough on me today, from the clothes to the stylists.After I lashed out during dinner because of the treatment I received from Jonathan and his stupid guards, I felt so guilty, even though he was the one at fault. He did not come back to finish his food, and while I ate, I could swear that the servants wanted to kill me with their stares.I stood up to head to the room when
"Hayden, let me go," I asked.Hayden did not stop till he reached the stage. I tried to pry my hand off, but he held me right and put me in my seat. I wish the ground would open up so I could hide there. I grabbed a full glass of vodka and downed it. I felt the effects after a short while.Someone clicked the spoon on a glass, and everyone stopped talking and went back to their seats. Alpha Joe, Ann, and Peter came to sit on the stage.When he came to the stage, I recognized him immediately as Beta Lucien, Hayden's second in command."We are gathered here for the celebration of the return of Alexandria Walker to Shadow Pack as the mate of the Alpha. So may we please clap for them and stand up for the Alpha Hayden speech?" Jax said.Everyone stood up. I tried to stand with them, but Hayden dragged my hand back. I looked at him to know what the problem was, but he was not looking at me and once everyone stood up, he pulled me up too.He led me to the center of the stage."Thank you ever
"Fuck," I murmured, and I woke up.I tried to sit up, but my head throbbed, and every muscle in my body protested against that movement. I managed to hold something and sat up. I blinked three times to clear my vision, but it still felt woozy.And my mouth felt very dry; I felt like someone who was abandoned in the desert. I felt someone's hand holding me, and without looking, I knew that it was Hayden.I shifted from his hold to take a look at him, and his eyes opened immediately. He pushed up, then stood up and left the bed.While he was going, I took a good look at him—disheveled hair, a bit of dark circles under his eyes—and he wore nothing except his boxer briefs."Here." He handed me the cup of water, and I took it immediately and downed everything."Thank you," I whispered.He nodded. "I wonder how you survived all those years because I took my eyes off you for a few seconds and you almost got yourself kidnapped."I gave him the side eye and said, "I survived just fine because n
Hayden POVToday was the day of the general meeting. Since my return two days ago, I have spent it with my twins, organizing every piece of evidence that I had. Compiling the conversation between Abel and Ana, I could still see the look of horror on her face when I pushed Abel out of the car; she looked like she had seen a ghost.No one could escape, as I made sure the boundaries were guarded, and I confirmed that Peter was truly my uncle's son. I told my father about it this morning, and I had to hold him down from rushing to his brother's house.I also told Josh what his father had done and that Peter was his brother. He had been working with me for a long time, so he deserved that much respect.My twin's birthday was coming in a few months, and I could not wait to get all this over and start a new phase with my family."Ready," I said to Alex.She nodded. "More than ever."I grabbed her hand and then pressed the elevator. We had left the twins at home wit
"Good morning, soldiers," I said while standing in front of them."Good morning, Alpha," They greeted."Tomorrow, we will save our pack. This is one of the most important missions in our lives, so there is no room for mistakes everywhere. Do you understand?""Yes, alpha.""Good. What I want is your excellence amongst others. No mistakes. Anyone who leaks any information here will die in my hands in the worst way possible. Now let us start."Jim had told him to come to the house; it was near the water. He initially disagreed and gave him another location with the excuse that he could be walking into an ambush. Jim used the same excuse for him, telling him that he might decide to kill him and take every dollar in his account. "The location is the house in the forest. It is not afflicted to any of us, and although he thinks he is smart, we are smarter."I pointed at the hidden cameras that had picked up a picture of a middle-aged woman who came to look around, using detectors and everyt
Hayden pov After what we had last night, I had slept off but was woken up by the sound of my phone ringing. It was on the bed stand, but Alex was using my hand as a pillow, and I did not want to wake her up. I looked at the clock, and it was midnight. But then my phone started to ring again. She must have been disturbed by the noise because she turned and moved away from my hand.I tiptoed off the bed and grabbed my phone, then headed to the bathroom after looking around."This better be important, Jim?" I said immediately that I had picked it."Good evening, Alpha. I am calling because you said to call you and to never act on my command.""And?""The dealer messaged me. He says that he has something to do next week and decided to get the job done tomorrow, so I should get him money ready by tomorrow.""What did you tell him?""Nothing. He just sent me the message a few minutes ago. Also, there's a feature in my laptops that makes messages I have rea
Alex povWe arrived on our private plane to Paris. This was my first time in Paris, and I was so excited. It is going to be a fun experience for me. I brought out my phone, then found the article about Paris I had downloaded, because I wanted to have a better knowledge of where we were going and where we would be visiting after we had rested well.My interest was piqued when I saw a picture of the Eiffel Tower. We will do that.We were taken to our hotel room by a limousine.The hotel NH Paris Gare de l'Est was famous for its exquisite view and its transport convenience, and I will go see it too.The fact that it was closer to the Eiffel Tower, the train station, and the airport made it an exciting place for tourists and visitors.After we checked into one of the biggest hotels in Paris, which was owned by Hayden, We collected the key to our hotel room, while the baggage porters helped us carry our bags into our room.I did not waste time showering; he want
Josh povAs soon as Hayden left, I sat down with Lex, watching her rummage through the wardrobe.She had come to the kitchen, where I was lounging and waiting for them to finish cooking, and dragged me to her room."I need you to help me choose the perfect lingerie to seduce Hayden when he comes back.""Wouldn't Hayden kill me for looking at you?""He won't know unless you tell him, and what he does not know would not kill him. Now come with me."I followed her to the room, but all I wanted was to call Cecelia. I knew that she was in the Alpha's whatever, but I liked her.I remember how beautiful she looked from the back in the tub. She looked like a princess, so I pulled off my clothes and joined her in the tub."What are you doing?" She had asked me."Bathing, Isn't it obvious?" I asked."I thought you said that there was no reason for you to do that, as you will be leaving soon.""I changed my mind," I said, and then I started washing her hair for her."Okay,
Alex povI felt someone tapping me, and I groaned, then buried my face in the bed. It must already be time for us to leave, but I had stayed all night watching K-drama recommendations because I wanted to sleep more.It had started with Hayden bringing his laptop to bed when I said that I did not want to be alone in the room while he typed. He had agreed, but then the noise from his typing would not let me sleep."Can't you put down that laptop? I can't seem to sleep because of what you are typing." "I can't, but I can get out of bed; I will just be in the living room. You can call me if you need me."I shook my head, then placed my head on his chest. He likes to say that I have been needy these past few days.I had told him that since I almost died, I now knew what I was missing, and he started laughing.I stayed curled up at his side while he worked, but then I saw that it was disturbing him, just that he did not only tell me that he could not type comfor
Finn Hallmark povI had finished making a few calls in my study and learned that Donovan was not giving up and that he was still trying to finish up in the few days that they gave him. I did not know what he thought he was doing, but that bastard was starting to make me angry, and it looked like I would get rid of him."Is there a way that you guys could get him to leave the deal for me? You know how much I give you for everything that you do for me, right?""I know that Finn, but there is nothing that I have not tried. I sent you a picture of the deal too, and you could not find any clause that would make anyone take anything back. He was very thorough in making that deal like he knew that something like this would happen." I scoffed, "I don't mean through legal means; I mean, can't you get rid of him through any means?"The bastard at the other end of the line started laughing like I said something funny. He laughed for a while, and it started to irritate me, so I
When I opened my eyes, the room still felt dark, so that may mean that it was not morning yet. I felt sore in many places, and my head was killing me, but either way, I tried to touch his side of the bed and ask him to pull me up, but there was no one there. I looked at the side, which was a bit rumbled, which meant that he did sleep there but had woken up before I did.I managed to sit up and then looked at the clock. It was five o'clock in the morning, and I pushed myself to the edge of the bed even though my whole body protested against that movement. But I needed to get up and drain my bladder since I fainted from my orgasm and did not know everything that happened after that. I also needed to eat something because all that walking made me hungry, and I was too busy ogling Josh to ask for noodles yesterday, but now that all that was done, I needed to eat. I heard the sound of a plate falling somewhere, so that means that he was in his kitchen.Then came the whole problem, because
I grabbed the drink from his hand and took a sip from it to calm my insides. I had not examined what kind of tea, which is unlike me; it could have been poison and I would have drank it without looking, but it turned out sweet, so I looked at the remaining liquids at the bottom of the cup."What kind of tea is this? It's really sweet," I asked him."I don't know; my mom bought most of the things in my house, including this tea. She blended a lot of the things into the dried green tea, but I have forgotten what she mentioned."I tasted cinnamon on it," I said, and he shrugged."I did too, but as for the rest, I did not pay much attention," he said."Do you want to play a game?" He asked me."What is it? Truth or dare," I continued. "Do you want to dare me to pull my pants off?""It is not truth or dare, and if I wanted you to pull your pants off, I would not need to play a silly game. It's an Ouija box game where you have to do anything the alphabet on it says.""Is there another paper
