050 A Bad Joke
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56Willa's POV
Al and Alpha Kirsch sat at the two ends of the dining table, and I sat on the first seat on Al's right-hand side.
I never paid too much attention to food, but Al's cooking really blew my mind. I couldn't stop myself from getting more pancakes and making different combinations under Al's suggestion. Though it was such a waste to Kirsch because he just put everything together and piled a pancake mountain on his plate.
"It's Sunday, where are you gonna work on a Sunday?" I turned to Kirsch after I bit the tip of a huge strawberry.
"To the whorehouse, maybe?" Al teased as he leaned toward me. I pressed my lips to hold back the laugh, glancing at the cold Alpha in a sneaky way in case I met his eyes. Al took that chance and bit on the other half of the strawberry in my hand!
Sneaky!
"I'm not the one drowning in alcohol and women." Kirsch narrowed his eyes at Al, who grinned with mischief.
"Really?!" I exclaimed, eyes fixed on Al with hope spilled over in my voice. If Al didn't mind visiting the whorehouse, then he definitely wouldn't mind me staying around him before my crush for him was over!
"Not anymore." Al shrugged, his lips pulling up in a taunting smile, "I belong only to my mate now."
"Ohh..." I lowered my eyes, trying to hide the disappointment. It was evil of me to try to get close to him. Al wanted to say something, but in the end, he just started with his breakfast.
"I don't have weekends." Kirsch averted the topic, stuffing his mouth with the pancake mountain piled in front of him, "Ever since I was 12, I think."
He glared at Al when he said that, and Al grinned at him brightly as an answer.
"So...you just sit in the school all by yourself?" I frowned, picturing him sitting in a dark office with a grumpy face. No wonder he was sullen all the time.
He must be lonely.
The Alpha sighed at me with a defeated look, and Al burst into laughter.
"What?" I blinked in confusion. Who else would be there with him...I gasped in shock after a second, "You are NOT taking me to school on a Sunday!"
Alpha Kirsch rolled his eyes.
"I'm hurt...I'm sick...I need to rest in bed..." I started whining as I dropped dead on the table before he could give his command, "School is horrible! It's evil's nest!"
I wanted to stay home with Al.
Al's body suddenly stiffed. He sat back straight and closed his eyes as if in pain.
"Al? Are you alright? Does your arm still hurt?" I muttered nervously.
"Still hurts!" Al opened his eyes and rose his arm to me, furrowing his eyebrows like a kid. I supported his elbow as I stroked his forearm as soft as I could. His arm shivered at my touch, and I lifted my hand right away as I glanced at him nervously.
I wish granny was here so we can cure him.
"I feel better now!" Al smiled to ease my tension, he patted me on the head with his wounded arm to prove his words, "It will heal soon enough."
"Maybe you should feed him some blood." Alpha Kirsch leaned back on his chair with one arm on the back of the chair, smirking at me.
"No!" I shouted in horror before I lowered my eyes. I couldn't of course, drinking my blood would only hurt Al. I got nervous not just because I would expose my secret, but also...
It made me blush.
I pulled my hands back by instinct when I flinched at Kirsch's tease, and Al's arm dropped on the table.
"Ahh..." Al whined, but it was in such a lazy way that I doubted whether it really hurt. I lowered my head, hiding my eyes from them but he just let his arm lay there in front of me.
"I'm sorry!" I took his arm into my hand again, but I dodged his eyes, "I shouldn't do it though, you have a mate..."
Why did I say that?! I couldn't heal! My blood couldn't heal others, with or without a mate. But my mind was just on it so much that it slipt out.
"I don't think that would be a problem." Alpha Kirsch supported his face in his hand with his elbow on the table. He was looking at Al instead of me.
"Why?" I blinked in confusion. But instead of answering, Al just took his arm back. Now he was dodging MY eyes. The smile disappeared from his face.
It got me nervous.
"Because," Alpha Kirsch said one word and Al shot up his head, staring at Alpha Kirsch with a frown. I suddenly felt fear rose in me. It was like Al used Alpha Aura, which was impossible because he was a rogue, and I couldn't even feel Alpha Aura!
Was Al angry? But for what? I froze in his domination vibe.
Alpha Kirsch turned to me with a smile: "Because your Al gave you his blood to save you, it wasn't me."
"Really?!" I shouted in a happy surprise before I turned into a murmur, "I didn't see Al there..."
I was genuinely shocked, but that didn't stop the sweetness oozing out of my heart. I felt like my whole body was going to float up in happiness.
Alpha Kirsch lowered his eyes and turned his attention back to his food mountain.
I didn't dare to look at Al because I could feel my face and ears heating up. I blushed again. Al reached over to my hand with his, and stroked the back of my hand softly with his thumb.
I looked up at Al, and he was smiling at me like he always was. It almost feel like the short moment where he dominated the room in anger was just an illusion.
"Are you angry that he told me?" I asked Al in a small voice. He didn't want me to know he did it. I had seen Al angry but only for once, and that was at James, not me. The moment he got angry over Alpha Kirsch's words really scared me.
"No, of course not! I just didn't want him to joke about it." Al shook his head. He rose my hand to his lips and pressed a light kiss on the back of my hand, "I'm sorry I scared you."
Right, he had a wolf. He could hear my heart was scared into a fast pounding.
I was even feeling bad about someone not my mate doing that for me when I thought it was Alpha Kirsch who saved me, of course, Al would mind talking about it when he had a mate!
"I'm sorry you have to do that for me, again." I pulled my hand out of his softly, "You...you should take me to a hospital next time."
Al seemed shocked to hear me say that. He frowned slightly, staring at me with pain in his eyes but he didn't say anything.
Alpha Kirsch stared at us with a frown, but he didn't say anything either.
The happiness of seeing Al again faded a little now, and the fact that he had a mate kicked in. I dodged his eyes as I stared at my food in guilt. I should keep a distance from him before our friendship hurt either of us.
"I can go to the school with you." I turned to Alpha Kirsch as I dodged Al's eyes. Staying home with Al suddenly seemed such a stupid and awkward idea.
Alpha Kirsch rose his eyebrows in surprise. His eyes darted toward Al. Al smiled bitterly before he lowered his eyes and started with his breakfast in silence. He was using his wounded arm, and his arm was shivering.
I wanted to offer to help, but I stopped myself.
"Why did you suddenly grow love to the evil's nest?" Alpha Kirsch forced a smile as he asked me, trying to joke around.
"It's such a pitiful scene, to picture you working alone in an empty school. I'm just feeling generous." I curved my lips, joking with him.
"That's so nice of you." Alpha Kirsch let out a laugh, "But I'm not working at the school. I have an Alpha's meeting to attend to."

Taran's POV Searing pain exploded in my chest when Willa said she would rather go to a hospital than let me heal her. I knew it was stupid to feel hurt over such a thing, but the pain of rejection was real. At that moment, I could barely control myself to act normal, let alone smile. I used my arm with great force to inflict pain, that was the only way to cast away the pain in my chest, just by a little. Kirsch stood up to clean the table after breakfast. Kirsch always cleaned when I cook for him. He was a disaster at cooking. I wanted to talk to Willa with this chance but she just grabbed the empty plates out of Kirsch's hand, dodging my eyes: "I'll do it." She was trying to avoid me. Kirsch didn't insist. Instead, he turned to me: "Can we talk?" Though we knew Willa doesn't have a wolf, we still left the house in case she could hear us. We both knew the topic we had in mind was not "Willa-friendly". "She's your mate, isn't sh

Kirsch's POV I should have known that Willa was Taran's mate. I should have noticed a long time ago. I didn't think of it because I was so focused on my feelings toward Willa. There were so many signs. He "attacked" them only to flee himself; He got upset at me joking about Nat being his mate for the very first time; he got grumpy when he thought I might have seen Willa change. I should have known. I didn't think it that way because I didn't thought Crebreus was able to love. He was cold to everyone. He had no friend. He was mad. But Cerberus changed, after he met Willa. He even came out to talk to her this morning in the kitchen. He never came out to "talk", the only times he came out was to punish and rule when Taran was still the Alpha. That was why Rudy was confused about Willa! I only felt the similar pull to Willa, but not as strong at to Taran because I marked him by mistake, and b

Willa's POV I thought Alpha Kirsch went out with Al, but Al came back before I could even finish washing the dishes. "Let me help?" Al reached for the plate in my hand, his finger long and straight. I stared his hand into reaching mine. "It's fine, you are injured." I dodged his fingers and put the plate on the stand. Al paused for a second. It felt like he wanted to take my wrist, but in the end, he just put down his hand with a sad smile. "I'm going out, will be back in a couple of hours." Al put his hand behind his back as he leaned on the kitchen's entrance, "You will be alright for a few hours by yourself?" "Of course!" "There is a pool on the balcony on the third floor, feel free to enjoy." "Thanks." I finished all the dishes before I dared to look up, and to my relief, Al was gone. I wasn't really good at keeping friends, let alone a friend that I had a crush on who also had a mate. I was grateful to be l

Willa's POV I reached for the glass in front of me, but Al pulled it away. "You are underage." He said simply. "Well, it's a bar. The fun IS liquor!" I frowned, reaching out for the glass again. Al grabbed my wrist, stopping me with a chuckle. "You asked my idea of fun, I didn't say it was for all ages!" Al rolled his eyes. "Well, are you having fun then?" I narrowed my eyes with a deadpan. His facial expression when he drank wasn't exactly saying fun. "The meaning of liquor is not 'fun'." Al air quoted at me, and that left the glass unguarded! I stole the glass from him and he reached over to get it back. Nice try. I turned around and took the glass into my arms with my back facing Al. He chuckled at my "defense" when he nearly grabbed my arm instead, but he didn't touch me. "Just a sip!" I looked at Al over my shoulder, protecting my trophy as I pleaded. "It's against the law." Al looked down at me, hi
Lured By The Cursed Alpha 055 Scary Night
Willa's POV "Are you sure about this? Last chance to back out." Al asked me in the pitch-black room, taking my hand into his. "I think I am. I wanted it in the first place." I nodded in a serious tone. "You will regret it." Al sighed, worrying about my decision as he took me into his arms. "I never regret anything." I tip-toed and pecked him on the apple of his throat. He chuckled. Light suddenly burst out in the room, and the horror movie started. The movie was alright. A few jump scare scenes, a few death in a bloody way, nothing too fancy. People screamed a few times, but that was that. "You alright?" Al bent his head at me, draping his arm on my shoulder with a smirk. He was too tall for me to do the same. "Of course! So a man she knew came to her house, only to be found later that he was the real killer that had been after her, big deal." I rolled my eyes, feeling a bit lightheaded after the drink. Maybe th

Willa's POV "Willa, is everything alright?" Al waited to ask after our mind link was over. But I felt cold all of a sudden though Al was around me. Dark cloud. I felt a dark cloud over my head. "It was Alpha Kirsch." I turned to Al, frowning and hesitating. Alpha Kirsch obviously didn't want Al to worry, so I didn't want to tell Al my worry. But what if he was in trouble? He sounded off, and I just couldn't put my mind to ease. Al's eyes fixed on mine, as if he could look into my soul. He didn't ask any more questions, but just closed his eyes, only this time he opened them soon. "What did he say?" Al asked, calm as usual. It calmed me. "He said to tell you that, 'everything will be fine'." I frowned, staring at Al, trying to understand his expression. I didn't know what that means, but it was obvious that Al did. "I see." Al nodded, but he didn't look relieved, instead there was now confusion and worry on his face as w

Kirsch's POV The Alpha's meeting took me by surprise. Taran and I both thought it was about Jason seeing the silver rogue outside our pack. But Jason didn't even bring that up. There was little chance that his men didn't mind link him in their last moments. So why would Jason keep that from the Treaty? Jason called for the meeting, but only to make an appeal saying that I should be responsible for the deaths of his men. I felt unease because that was MY plan to distract him from Taran, but it was alarming when it came from Jason. He had no reason to hide the knowledge about Taran, at all. I took responsibility for the deaths, knowing that it wasn't a big deal because while they died outside my pack, it was too close to my border, and I had every right to defend myself. In the end, me and Jason both got the minimum punishment for this disturbance-- A shot of 7% wolfsbane solution. A wolfsbane solution of this concentrati

Willa's POV I was so sure Al would be gone when I woke up. He wasn't. He laid above the cover, just like when we went to bed last night. His arm was still under my neck, and his other hand draped over my waist. It gave me warmth. "Morning, little one." Curving his lips, Al said without opening his eyes when I turned around facing him. He rose his chin a little bit to give me room. And now his hand was on the back of my waist. I couldn't remove my eyes from staring at the apple of his throat. Delicious. I could barely fight the urge to bite him. Shouldn't I feel the urge to kiss him instead if I loved him? He peeked at me with one eye for a quick second, and my stupid staring made him chuckle. I buried my face in his neck in panic, and the vibration of his chest from his laughing made me blush. I must felt like a burning coal in his arms right now. And that made Al laugh even more. My face was pressed aga

I knew he was trying to gaining my trust by asking me to participate in everything, but something felt off, and I couldn't quite pin it.The most frustrating part was, I couldn't catch him with anything when it felt like it was right in front of my eyes."Ready for our date, Alpha Kirsch?" Stone was still in his human form when I came out in my wolf form. He would try to stay as long as he could in his human form whenever he was over in the pack, and I talked about that with Rudy, we both agreed that Stone was trying to lower our guard by showing up harmless, which was the most dangerous disguise.I wasn't falling for that.And the most annoying part, was his constant effort on starting a conversation."I proposed that we go North today because of the recent event."

Taran's POVDays passed, but everything seemed fine.Kirsch kept a regular daily report, but mostly about how Stone sent over people for some non-important spots on patrol, and Kirsch has sent men over, too. Every time Stone came over to our pack, he would inform Kirsch, and do a regular patrol together with Kirsch. As much as Kirsch hated it, it was better that Stone was kept under his nose.I know I'm not imagining it that Willa, or should I say, Nox, had been less happy ever since Kirsch left.

Kirsch's POVIt wasn't like Stone would make his move right there at the Treaty.Taran and Willa hurried back in a couple of hours, at which time Stone already left the Treaty."So we have the time all to ourselves now?!" Willa cheered, bouncing on the bed at that news, "Great!"Leaning on the door frame, Taran shot Willa a weird look hearing that, but he didn't put in a comment."It can't be good that Stone chose to work with me," I frowned in deep thought. There is a mountain between our packs, and now we have to share the patrol duty, we have to exchange people, "I'll head back first. You guys can stay here and enjoy the vacation."I don't know how to trust anyone Stone might send."We need to stay together," Taran suddenly said, his eyes on the floor with his arms folded in front of him, "we don't know what Stone is up to, but if there is anything he desires from us, it's within the three of us.""But I don't want to go yet..." Willa pouted, begging Taran, "Please, please? I have

Kirsch's POV"So you are telling me, he's actually part of the Treaty now?!" I turned to Powell with disbelief. The first thing I saw after I went into the meeting room, I couldn't believe --It was Stone, sitting in the second chair to the chairman of the Treaty.And something was different about him -- something besides the fact that he got a whole new arm.Turning his ring in a leisurely way, Stone smirked without looking at me: "I never knew the Treaty treats Alphas so poorly.""Stone Hayes is our new thirteenth Alpha," Powell turned to me with a sullen look, "pay some due respect, Kirsch."I frowned at Powell: "Well, you have changed! What got into you?"Not that I expected Powell to support me for our history's sake, but he had always been disapproval of Stone before this -- well, before the Treaty suddenly turned on Taran.[Don't push them too far,] Taran's voice suddenly rose in my head -- Rudy mindlinked him when we saw Stone there in the room, [I'm afraid Powell is no longer

Kirsch's POVI wanted to stay on the sofa -- actually, I wanted to die on the sofa. There was nothing that could ever lure me more than sex with both of my mates.Taran pulled out first.He handed the drunk, melted kitten over to me with a soft voice: "Take her to bed, will you? I'll go fetch some clean towels."Willa let out a protesting whimper when Taran was no longer inside her, but there was zero energy left in her to do anything more than that.I pulled her close, supporting her body with my hands under her thighs as I walked over to the bed."Owww..." Willa moaned faintly with a mild smile, liking the little tingles my cock spread inside her with the movement."Greedy little kitten," I mumbled with a chuckle, leaving kisses on her lips and chin and neck after I put her onto the bed before I pulled out slowly.She dragged me on my shoulder and pulled me into bed with her before she snuggled into my arms and closed her eyes with a naughty smile."I REALLY have to attend the meeti

Kirsch's POV I didn't even know when Taran stopped, just so he wouldn't distract her, but I surely felt it when he started again-- Without even giving her time to answer Rudy, Taran rammed into her, making her gasp in the sudden pleasure, and she took our lips into a firey kiss as she moved over our tip. Rudy let go of her hand and gave me control. [What was that--] I started, struggling between the waves of tingles spreading over my body. [You have a more urgent problem at hand,] Rudy nudged me with a grin, [make her happy or I will!] I believe I stopped paying attention to him halfway through his nagging. Taran let go of Willa, leaving her firm breasts pressed against me, and I felt like they were two balls of fire, burning my skin in the most amazing way. He had one leg knelt on the sofa and bent down with her, helping her sit down on me and getting my cock all the way into her to the deepest. The huge pleasure took away my breath. Willa let out a little whimper with her le

Kirsch It was like my heart inflated before exploded when that word rolled off Willa's tongue, and my head was totally blank during that fierce kiss. I almost wish I could die at that moment so the kiss would never end. I felt bad stealing Willa from Taran, but I couldn't help accepting Willa's teasing when she showed interest in me. She was like a poison with the most delicious flavor, and knowing it would kill me I devoured her still every time I got the chance. But until now, it was only teasing-- She would jump on me and lick my collarbone, sending tingles that make me tremble, but never had her lips land on mine; she would press herself against me and giggle, but mostly it was only when she wanted stuff FROM me, unlike now when her eyes were sinking into mine with pure desire as if all she wanted was me. And that was the poison I could never escape. "Mate!" I responded when my lips finally found a gasp of freedom before I took her into my chest and kneaded as if we could beco
Lured By The Cursed Alpha 233 First Kiss
Taran's POVI cut off the mindlink with Kirsch, and instantly--[We can wake Willa up,] Cerberus huffed in a hurtful tone. He noticed not a moment later than I did.He was in pain. It physically hurt us to know that our mates are suffering, and Cerberus knew the pain of being kept in deep sleep more than anyone --Well, anyone but Nox.[She can put Willa into deep sleep once, she can do it again,] I suppressed the bitter sting in my chest to comfort my wolf, [we have to solve this properly without hurt to either of them.

Taran's POV "Powell, good to see you again," I reached out my hand to Powell when Willa and Kirsch both turned their heads away when they saw Powell greeting us at the gate of the Treaty. "The same!" Powell grabbed my hand gratefully, and instantly let go when Willa shot him a death stare, "I'm so glad to have you with us, Alpha Taran!" "He's not the Alpha," Willa suddenly interrupted in a cold tone, "Kirsch Murphy is our current Alpha, and we are hoping you can at least pay your due respect to little details like these." Kirsch stared at Willa in shock with his jaw on the ground before he turned to me with confusion in his eyes. Though both of them are my mates, I do taste jealousy every time Willa appears close to Kirsch, and that was when I noticed -- Willa HAD been closer to Kirsch, and it actually started since the day when she failed to mark him. I was worried that day would ruin the little closeness they had before. "I'm terribly sorry! Miss..." Powell hesitated, and oddl
