"Are you hungry? I could microwave you something really quick," I asked, still enveloped in his hands, but he shook his head."What do you want me to do then?" I questioned him because his face was still betraying no emotion. I tried to get out of our hug so I could look at his face, but he just held me in his hands while heading towards the bedroom. He stopped in front of our children's room, looked inside, then closed back to the door.He went inside, dropped me on the bed, and climbed on. He took my mouth in a kiss and I opened it for him immediately, his tongue stroking mine and his hands on my back massaging it.I slipped my hand into his hair, running my hand through it, while he devoured my mouth. His tongue slid to my throat, nipping and having me moan out his name, His hand roamed over my b*obs, teasing them with the dress still on, then pulling my nightgown up and running his hands on my curves."Hay...den," I moaned, but then I felt his hand on my pants, and he started rub
Alix pov"Oh my god, definitely the dress," Claire said, clapping her hand.I bowed playfully, but when I looked in the mirror, the dress was truly beautiful and fit around my curves like a glove."Yes, but I will still adjust the straps a bit here; we don't want your breasts to fall out while you dance with the Alpha," Crystal said, touching the shoulder area."It looks okay to me. Are you sure that it needs adjusting?" Claire asked herCrystal was about to answer her, but Regina beat her to it."You would not know. You are not a stylist anyway.""Regina shut up," Crystal said, then turned to Claire. "She does not mean that, ma'am.""Yes, she does, or she would not have rolled her eyes just now when you apologized to her. Come closer, Regina, or I will let my mate know about this insult. What do you think he will do?"Her head snapped to Claire, and she came closer. "I did not mean any disrespect, ma'am. It was just a reflex action; I talk like that
Jax dashed outside, and Josh rushed to me, pulling me behind him while scanning and sniffing around to see if he could detect anything.I stood there frozen because I could not believe that it was happening again. Hearing my mate tell me that I might be in danger did not touch me, but seeing it happen to me again was terrifying.I felt someone tap me, and I grabbed the hand immediately, but the person grabbed my other hand."Chill, it is me, Claire. What the fuck is happening? Why did Jax run outside like someone lit a fire in his ass while Josh is in front of you and sniffing everyone?"."All clear, you may go sit down, Luna; I will be looking around," Josh said, then Claire and Summer pulled me to sit down.Everyone's eyes were on us, and the once noisy place was quiet now; even the babies were quiet too."Go back to what you are doing; everywhere is clear," Josh said, and slowly people began to eat again."Tell us what is wrong." Summer demanded.I looked around to make sure that p
And like I said, he must not have heard me because when I got to the kitchen after showering and everything, Shantel was there, marinating the meat and washing vegetables while packs of noodles were lying around."Good morning, Luna," she said to me, and she concentrated on what she was doing. Finn was lounging in the chair in the sitting room and was doing something on his phone, but he greeted me immediately as I entered.I answered with a smile, then went back to the kitchen.The vibe around her had been different since she was taken to that dungeon, and I don't blame her, but I kind of missed when she used to start a conversation with me or tease me about something, but now, they shrank when I was near, and when I try to stay while they discuss or cook, they will look so uncomfortable that I will leave them alone and find something else to do, and it was really to bother me."You will be attending the mating ceremony today, right?""Yes, Luna, I will go get ready once I am done c
"Umm, this is Marcus Flain. One of the best soldiers I have ever seen. I hired him a few days ago," he said, pointing at him.Marcus moved forward while smiling and extended his hand for me to shake, but Hayden grabbed the hand."Nice to meet you, Marcus," Hayden said, taking the hand before I could even reach it."We have already met before Alpha, Alpha Finn introduced us," he said, trying to pull the hand, but Hayden held it."Use your senses, Marcus," he said, dropping his hand. "Where did you get him from? What happened to your soldiers that you need another person from another pack to come guard you?""I did not find him. He is a rogue, so it's good that he works his stay out and not just stay in my.pack eating my food, and he is one of the best fighters I know, so don't let his baby face deceive you."Marcus smiled, then looked at me and said, "It is nice to meet you, Luna.""You too; I hope the journey was pleasant," I said, but I did not smile back because something inside of
I hissed and then tried to drag my hand away, but Hayden pulled it back and whispered,"What is the problem?"I looked away, so he told Cecelia, "I will see you later. My mate needs something."She looked around like she had not seen me standing there. "Hi, Alex. I did not see you there. You look beautiful.""Thank you, Excuse me," I said, and I pried my hand away successfully. I then started to walk away, but then I felt him following me, and he pulled me back."Where are we going?" He asked me."None of your business; feel free to go back to snuggling with your former lover," I said, looking away."What do you mean? She was telling me about...""She was rubbing her body against yours to provoke me. She was not telling you anything.""No, she was trying to tell me about the meeting that we had.""Alpha Hayden, your party is lovely," a voice said, interrupting us.I turned, and a tall young man who was almost as tall as Hayden and had a sweet smile was standing in front of us, while
Hayden pov"Alpha Hayden, it's time for your speech with your Luna," Josiah, my father's brother, said.Father had long refused to be part of most events unless it was necessary, so his brother had assumed his duty for a long time."Come on, everyone is bored of those boring speeches. Who cares if he gives another one of them? The only thing I would be interested in would be the chasing of maidens game," Finn said, nudging me.I rolled my eyes, then faced Josiah, who was standing akimbo in front of me."You know that it is tradition, right? Your father will have my head if we don't do this right."Before I could tell him that I was going to do it and he should not mind Finn's loud mouth, Ann appeared and started pulling at Josiah's hand."Can I borrow Josiah for five minutes?" He asked me."We are discussing something important, Ann; let's talk later.""Now!" She said that and gave him a look."Excuse me, Hayden, please be ready with Alex; I will be back."Ann hi
Hayden pov"Hayden, wait," Lucien said, pulling me back into the room."What do you mean confront her? Were you, not the one who said that you cannot expose her yet until you have caught everyone involved in this?" He whisper-yelled."I am well aware of everything I said, Lucien, but that was all before Alex went missing. My mate and my child are in danger. I felt a sharp pain in my heart a few minutes ago.""Then they have not left the pack yet if you felt her a few minutes ago. Look, Hayden, grabbing Ann now and threatening her won't get her to talk because you have nothing over her now, something tells me that she has already made peace with dying with the things she has been doing, and she has been so smart to keep her son off it. If you threaten her with Peter, he has not been caught doing anything, so you will get nothing but...""Quit the long sermon and go straight to the point; I don't have all day, Lucien.""You have cameras on almost every part
