There you go, the reason why Kirsch would feel the mate pull :)
Willa's POV Kirsch's outburst scared us all. "Tell us!" I urged him. It should be a crime to torture people with suspense! "You said the mad king gets madder because of the constant pain of feeling the strongest mate bond, but not being able to find his mate, right?" Kirsch shouted with a frantic light shining in his eyes, "So what's so special about Cerberus?" Really?! Q&A now?! "Taran is gentle and caring--" "Nooo! He already has that and pushed the shift later to his 15th birthday! What else?!" Kirsch waved his hand. "Hating this! Just tell me!" I pouted and Kirsch chuckled-- "What does he feel on a new moon?" Kirsch ignored me and asked Taran. I turned around and found that Taran was actually in deep thought, thinking about his question seriously! "He feels a weird pull through a mysterious fog..." Taran muttered, more like to himself. "Cerberus knew what a mate pull feels like, he claimed Willa when he found her, due to Nox in Willa, no doubt," Kirsch bubbled excitedly,
Willa's POV Just when I thought all secrets were out, one more appeared-- Right before we left granny's place, she stopped Taran and talked to him alone for a couple of minutes before Taran came out to me with a smile. I had been squeezing him for three days for the secret little talk but he wouldn't budge. He said it was a secret only to be revealed after my birthday. "How about now?" The first thing I did on my birthday's morning was to climb on Taran for my answer. "Hmm?" Taran muttered, half asleep. "My answer!" I bounced on his stomach and he chuckled in pain. "Did I sleep through your entire birthday?!" He blocked the sun with his arm over his eyes, asking in a lazy tone. "No, why?" I asked as I drooled over his lined body. "Well then it's not 'after' your birthday, is it?" Taran burst into laughter when I fell for his trick. "Liar! Bully! Evil! Tell me!" I bent down and bit him on his shoulder. Taran wiggled before he rolled and pressed me down on the bed-- "Dare bite
Willa's POV So THAT was why Kirsch asked us to "move back" to the old Alpha house last night -- for a "little" party that involves basically everyone in town?! I stood on the platform on the second floor, staring at the crowd in panic. "Scared, little wolf?" Taran came out of the bedroom minutes after I froze where I was. Kirsch was downstairs, greeting the pack. Though he was no longer the Alpha, he still had their respect, not just because he had been their Alpha for the past five years, also because-- The pack bond recognized him as the ONLY beta again. "Actually, yes..." I turned around, "I have never had a birthday party before. I don't want one. I don't really dig attention..." Attention was the worst. "Kirsch only mentioned to them that it's your birthday. It's mainly about my return." Taran wrapped his arms around my waist, "Does that make you feel better?" "A lot, yes..." I let out a relieved sigh, turning to him for a hug when I suddenly realized that would be a mista
Willa's POV"Are you serious?!" I hissed under my breath, trying to push out his hand. I could hear the crowd right outside the kitchen door. Could they hear my voice?"When an Alpha says there is punishment, there is punishment, little wolf," Taran whispered by my ear with a hand gripping the back of my neck like handling a kitten. His other hand pulled off my panties, and he let the cloth slip out from under me on purpose, leaving me to taste my desperation in slow motion."I'm sorry! I regret what I have done, Alpha, my good Alpha! Please forgive me!" I begged, deciding it wasn't the best time to defiant."Cerberus, should we forgive her?" Taran smirked evilly, his lips brushed down my neck, sending tingles through my body. I flinched back, desperate to realize that my breath got thicker at his teasing. He brushed the second joint of his finger across my entrance, lingering on my clit and tremoring. Arousal flooded through me when a moan escaped my lips."Cerberus, you will forgive
Willa's POV He took a step back and lifted a leg, treading on the door: "Sorry, room occupied." "Alpha?!" The woman sounded surprised, "I'm sorry!" She left quickly but my heart wouldn't slow down easily. "Scared, little one? Bit my finger real good there," Taran chuckled, lifting my chin with a finger. It was only then did I realize that he took over control. "You scared me to death!" I bit him on the side of his chest and he burst into laughter. "Sorry, it was too fun to resist teasing you." Taran printed a kiss on my forehead, "Shall we go upstairs and finish what we started?" "I thought that's not nice to leave the guests alone." I rolled my eyes as I put my top back on, looking for my panties and shorts. "Here." Taran swung my panties on his finger teasingly, "But it's also not nice to leave me hanging like this." My eyes followed his and landed on the little tent made by his shorts. "You deserve it!" I put on my clothes quickly, "You started it!" "Pretty sure you are t
Willa's POV I rubbed his tip over my clit again and again, fast when his edge slid through the entrance and slow when the tip rubbed deep into me. "Oh my goddess..." Taran hissed under his breath, his hand trembled when the impulse flew through the mindlink. The explicit compliment in his tone made me happy. "Make me yours, Alpha?" I teased him, grinding into his hardened length. "I have never enjoyed hearing that title so much." Taran chuckled, leading my wrist as his tip pressed against my entrance. I was waiting for the familiar pleasure when I felt his tip penetrate me, but the tearing pain drowned all the other sensations. I shivered in pain with a hiss, and Taran stopped right away. "Relax, little one," Taran kissed me on my neck, "Relax and it would be easier." He moved away and ground my entrance with his palm slowly. His touch dulled the pain and built up the friction in me fast. He slid one finger back into me, moving slow but deep. He came between my legs, parting them
Taran's POV [Scared, my fierce little red riding hood?] I teased Willa when she instantly tightened up as the whispers rose. Guess it was just a couple of naughty pups, but damn she was cute when she bit my cock hard when she was startled! [Aren't you?!] Willa glared at me, turning to bite my arm. [Nudity is pretty common in a wolf pack so,] I shrugged, faking a casual tone, [You might want to get used to it, considering you are getting your wolf pretty soon.] [R-really?] Willa whimpered with a weeping face. Not really. Nudity IS common among us, but sex is still private. It was just too much fun to not tease her. [Wh-what do we do now?] Willa fixed her eyes on me with her eyebrows furrowed, looking for help. Her puppy dog eyes were so cute that I doubt anyone could ever say no to her. [Thought I have taught you a lot already, but I can teach you more.] I curved my lips, starting pulling out of her tight little pussy. Fuck she felt good! [No! I meant with them!] Willa gasped, a
Willa's POV I woke up feeling sour all over. With my last shred of clear memory being Taran snuggling beside me with his length still in my core, I had the best sleep ever in years. "Evening, little one." Taran's husky voice rose when my soul was still floating around. The shade of raucity in his voice indicated the ardent exercise earlier. I yawned lazily, enjoying the perfect moment of waking up beside him. "Am I in heaven?" I grinned at my mate, sniffing his soothing scent. Have you ever heard any thunderstorm being soothing? Here it is. "Well I certainly hope not!" Taran laughed, leaving a light peck on my lips, "But heaven lost its allure to me when you are not there." I snuggled into his arms more as he rose his chin to take me in. His trust toward me rose guilt in me for what I was about to do-- I bit him on his shoulder. "Ahh." Taran "screamed" with a too calm tone to give assaulters like me any satisfaction whatsoever, "I'm sure I did something wrong, but please do enl
Kirsch's POVI really thought Stone would make at least SOME suspicous move when he comes over, but he didn't.All he did, he did right in front of my eyes, at his invitation. 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." Stone walked by my side and Rudy started runni
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. Though I kept her company -- or rather -- she wouldn't let me go anywhere without her attached on my waist, there was always this gloomy cloud in her eyes that no amount of ice cream could chase away.Yep, ice cream.Lived a thousand lives in misery, ice cream has become the dark goddess's one solace that she can face without guilt.I feel like she felt guilty toward me, and I don't know why.All I knew was, I was able to get the magic about draining one's blood out of her that day, and even
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
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. They are one, Cerberus.][She needs the other mate mark,] Cerberus kept his calm, it was so much easier to talk to him right now, [but I doubt she would mark anyone if she couldn't even mark Kirsch.][She couldn't mark Kirsch because her human part was in deep sleep,] I watched Cerberus carefully -- I know the jealousy I have been feeling was half from him, [Nox loves Kirsch. She can't fight the mate pull.][So
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
