MasukMarabella POVHe kissed my cheek and I turned my face, meeting his lips. He gave me a soft kiss back, then I climbed off his waist and Jayden spun me to him.“We’re only getting information. We’re not deciding anything while we’re here,” he warned, and I shrugged.“Unless she says that my magic won’t work on the border and will harm me or the baby, then I am making a decision, Jayden. I’m choosing us,” I said, holding his face, hating the fear that trickled down the link.Especially from Brax. We were going to his least favorite place to ask for information from his least favorite sources.I turned to him and went over, ignoring the fact that we had already arrived. I sat on his lap, and he curled me into his chest, kissing the top of my head, his shadows finding mine instantly, lightly caressing them inside me.I reassured him through the link and cupped his face, hoping he could see how badly we needed this to happen. We needed something to go right.If the humans had really said th
Marabella POVThis time heading to Tabby and Cain’s was different. I knew that at any point, my father could technically wander in.Jayden had been sure that wouldn’t happen since Tabby still had her rules, but it still put me on edge.My brother was a wild card too; he could turn up, of course, but then, I hadn’t heard from him in a while.I’d sent him a letter, asking if he knew what was going on with the humans, if Father had mentioned anything, if he still cared what happened to the humans, but I was still waiting for a reply.That had been a few days ago.I had wanted to go straightaway, but Jayden had been hard to convince and Cain had been “busy” with his new mate that he refused to tell anyone about.But he had finally checked with his mom and given us the all clear to make the trip.It was past Brax’s Lake apparently, which was human territory at the moment.“This is the last time we’ll be able to make this trip, beautiful. The farther we are away from the wolves, the tighter
Marabella POVI pursed my lips, hid my tears, and went over to him, sinking into his lap and curling up against his chest. He held me and kissed the top of my head.I ran my fingers over the tattoo spreading over his chest, tracing the lines of it.“What will that mean for the toxin you give me?” I asked, hating that I had to bring it up, but my stomach was churning with the idea that this could get even worse and that it could affect our child.Jordan’s hand went to my stomach, caressing the small swell there. I had no idea how fast or how big I was going to grow, but the hint of a bump was enough to have Jordan’s warmth in the link.“We’ll be fine, beautiful.”“Promise?”“We’re alphas, Little Human,” Jayden said. “Our pack’s magic will come to us, but there are consequences from having to draw from them.”“Like?” I asked, wondering why there had to be so many damn consequences to everything. It didn’t seem very fair when it wasn’t the wolves who had said the stupid word.“Our wolves
Marabella POVI shoveled food into my mouth like a crazy person. I was ravenous, my stomach growling even as I tried to provide it with nutrients.My alphas were eating like normal people, slowly chewing, watching me, but I didn’t care. I was starving.Or at least I had been for days. I was just making sure that if I was kidnapped again between now and my next meal then I wouldn’t starve for a while.I kept going until my plate was clean and then leaned back in my seat with a contented sigh, closing my eyes as the tiredness of having a full belly hit.“So, what happened with my father? You would have told me by now if he was dead, so that’s not how things ended,” I prompted, leaning forward for some chilled water as Jordan pushed his plate away and Jayden’s cutlery clanged on his.“Your father is messing with more than just the wolves now, beautiful,” Jordan murmured, and I frowned at the somber way he said it.“Which means?”“He has put himself in the direct fury of the witches,” Bra

Marabella POVMy head rolled to the side as he kissed my neck, my eyes meeting Jordan’s as he watched, leaning against the bedpost.Brax lay next to him, his eyes hungry again. They were insatiable. So was I though, and I needed Jayden, all of him, everything he had.He chuckled and dragged my lips back to his.“I was giving you a chance to recover before I destroy you, Little Human,” he teased, and my core pulsed with a dangerously intense pang of pleasure.“Destroy me,” I breathed, and he grinned.“Careful what you wish for.”I met his eyes and dared him to make me regret it. And then he was gripping my thighs, pushing them apart, sinking even deeper inside me until I cried out at how full I was and how good it felt.“Fuck,” I gasped as he thrust so fucking fast, leaving me breathless and desperate for the finish line he was holding just out of my reach.I met each thrust, his cock so precise with each stroke it had me breaking beneath him. I was pretty sure he was going to tear me
