Marabella POVThe slickness of my release spills out of me, and my body tenses, then relaxes, as the ripple of pleasurable waves wash over me, leaving me breathless. Jordan slips his fingers from me as his hot tongue laps at my release. He crawls up my body, settling his weight against me. His lips, wet with my juices, mold around mine, his tongue forces its way into my mouth, as he forces me to taste myself on his tongue.I pull him closer, deepening the kiss as our tongues dance together, reigniting another wave of desire within me. His hips thrust against my entrance, making me jolt at the overused nerves as his erection presses against me. My hand moves down his side, and I push the waistband of his boxers down and over his hip. He tugs them down, using his feet to remove them altogether to kick them off the bed. Kissing him deeper and harder, I pull him closer.His thick, hard shaft presses against my lower lips, and I can feel his piercings roll over my heated flesh as he pumps
JAYDEN POVTime is not something I really pay attention to anymore. I felt Jordan with Ella earlier, and I have been fighting the urge to go to them ever since. Yet, I welcome the pain from my link to Jordan. I don't see it as betrayal, just that Kaif was stupid enough to mark him as our mate. He was never intended for us, but for her.However, the pain is a distraction from the torment of grief rolling through me. The guilt, anger, and profound sadness that ebbs and flows through me is relentless as I sit in this silent house. A house that is much too big for an entire coven, let alone one person. The coldness of this place becomes one with how I feel inside, cold as ice, none achingly cold that the numbness it leaves becomes painful despair.Working just serves to piss me off even further, so I gave up on that idea the moment it arose. Our employees don't deserve to put up with my attitude, or an uneasy Kaif rearing his head and snapping at someone. Yet the bottle in my hand doesn't
JAYDEN POVHe keeps giving me reasons why it is okay to love her like I don’t know them already, but what he fails to give reason to is why loving her is so dangerous. Not for us but for her. It would be selfish to subject Marabella to the same fate bestowed on those before her.“And the others?” I ask. I don't understand why he just keeps going with the curse. Why not just remain on your own and let it die out naturally? Stop the torment and future sufferings; when would enough be enough, and when would he finally allow an end to it?“I loved all of them, each and every single one of them. Even after they tried to do what they did. It wasn't their fault, and I knew that. Yet, I loved our children more; I picked them over and over again, even if it meant destroying the women I loved repeatedly. I loved them, and I loved all my kids, Jayden. Why do you think I always made sure to keep them safe, to set their mothers free and their future kids free… I couldn't just give up and die and le
JAYDEN POV “I'm not jealous; I am… happy for them?” Though those words taste wrong on the tip of my tongue as I say them. It is somewhat true, I am happy, just… I am struggling too.“So happy that you are here and they are there waiting for you?”“They aren’t fucking waiting,” I snarl, shaking my head as I massage my temples.“If they weren’t waiting, why did Jordan ask you about sleeping with her, knowing she was our mate? Why would they both ask you to stay?” Kaif breathes, shaking his head at me.“Whatever,” I sigh in dismissal when he forces control of my drunken body, making me stand up; I face-plant the moment he stands me up.“Should have done that slower,” Kaif laughs as I shake my head, getting on my hands and knees. The glass bottle in my hand shatters as I land on top of it. I look down at my ruined shirt and growl.“Stop crying over wrinkled shirts and spilled whiskey. You already look like shit, so you can't look much worse,” Kaif growls, forcing me to my feet again. I st
JORDAN POV By the time I get to Jayden, I feel woozy from his drinking. I pull up out the front expecting him to be waiting outside, only he isn't. I try ringing him, but when he doesn't answer, I get out and unlock the door with the spare key.“Jayden?” I call out, but get no answer as I step into the foyer. All the lights are off when I hear garbled talking coming from the kitchen.I walk over and push the door open to find Jayden sprawled out on the floor, talking aloud to Kaif. I chuckle and walk over to him and stand above him. Jayden lifts the bottle he is clutching before it bangs to the floor with his clumsiness as I peer down at him.“My shirt has creases,” he slurs. I look him over and shake my head in amusement. It is rare to catch Jayden this vulnerable, rare at all for him to allow himself in such a state where I can see his vulnerability.“Yes, it does,” I laugh while bending down and grabbing his shoulders. I pull him to sit up.“Kaif is being an asshole,” he slurs, and
JORDAN POV To get him to the top floor, I have to get Kaif to help me walk with him. His dead weight is becoming too much, and he is killing my lower back. Unlocking the door, he rambles about needing to brush his teeth and a toothbrush. I laugh, dragging him into the bathroom, trying to keep him quiet, so he doesn't wake Mara. He would be mortified if she found him in this state.Digging around under the sink, I find a fresh toothbrush and open the packaging, handing it to him while I turn the shower on. Then, I turned around and found him stuck between the gap of the wall and the toilet. I heave him out, then quickly strip my clothes off and drag him into the shower with me.“You owe me big for this; I never thought I would have to shower you,” I tell him.“You're a good friend,” he mutters as I set him on the shower floor and lean him against the wall. I remove the showerhead and retrieve the soap, and he raises a hand. “My only friend.”“You have lots of friends. You just don’t li
Marabella POV Upon feeling someone move and hearing Jayden groan, I am roused awake as he tucks me closer to him, burying his face into my neck. He slowly rolls me toward him, and I am enveloped in his heady fragrance. The warmth of him seeps into my skin, covering me in his scent. Jordan, in turn, pulls him closer. His arm lay across Jayden’s waist, his hand resting on my lower back. And this feels perfect. This is how it was meant to be. How it should have been from the very start.“I feel like shit,” Jayden groans against my chest. I run my fingers through his dark, tousled hair, my nails making circles on his scalp, and he groans in approval. I blink, wondering what time it is because the sun is already pretty high in the sky, from what I can tell through the light filtering into the room between the cracks of the blinds. Damn, how long have we been sleeping?Jordan tugs Jayden closer, and Jayden lifts his head, looking down at Jordan's muscular arm pulling him closer. I chuckle,
Marabella POV With a sigh, I grip his shoulders and yank him closer, pressing my lips to his. Jayden’s blabbering words cut off from whatever gibberish he was speaking or trying to speak. His shock only lasts moments before he kisses me back. He closes his eyes, his breath hitches as he heaves in a shaky breath. He forces his tongue between my lips, tangling it with mine as his lips dominate my mouth. He purrs, tasting every inch and making me tug him closer. Something wet touches my cheek as his arm slips under my back, pulling me on top of him, so I am straddling his lap. Oh, goddess, this feels good. His strong, muscular body pressing against mine.Jayden sits up, his hands grabbing, his fingers digging into my flesh as he kisses me with passion filled hunger. His hands roam over my body before one escapes, slipping inside my shirt and going to my breast. He palms and squeezes it. An approving growl escapes him and I arch my back and throw my head back as pleasure ignites, setting
JEREMY She looked like she wanted to be anywhere but here, and confusion was drawn on her face like a tattoo. "This is a prank." She stated with a shake of her head. "Please, I promise to stay out of everything that relates with the Terrors or the Girlfriends." I almost laughed out loud at the panic in her voice, but I refrained and kept a straight face instead. "I would've thought you had more balls than that, but I guess I was wrong." There was no way I was going to try to make an ally out of someone who was walking, breathing cowardice. If she didn't want any bit of revenge then so be it. "Wait!" She called out to stop me as I walked away from her. I turned back to face her, my eyebrows arched in silent question. "What do you want?" "I already told you what I want, Gwen. You're either brave enough to be a part of it or you're not." My gaze trailed over her from head to toe. "And something tells me you're on the side of not." "How do I know that you're not mislead
JEREMY'S POV I couldn't possibly be imagining this. This place was deserted to a very large extent. Something was most definitely up. Every single person that had walked past us or even peeked through their windows at us since we strolled by casually had been either female or child. It was Jayden that finally responded to my comment. "No, it's not just your mind. This is actually a space dominated by anything other than the male wolves." Jordan made a show of sniffing the air. "There's no single scent of a male wolf within a 50 mile radius of this place." "What do you think could be going on?" I asked. This was seriously crazy. There was no way in hell that all of the men in the pack had just decided to step out on the same day. Especially not after the number of traps we'd had to get past on our way here. "I think there was more than one trap left waiting for us." Jayden didn't sound too pleased by that possibility. Not that I could blame him, I wasn't pleased by it ei

JORDAN'S POV "It's quite easy to make demands like that when you're sitting safe behind an office desk, isn't it?" I spat out before I could stop myself. Something about the woman made me want to vomit. She irritated the fuck out of me and I was always fighting the urge to simply wring her throat with my bare hands. "Excuse you?" Her eyes were oozing fire as she trained them on me. "There's just three of us. And yet we're constantly being pitted against a full army of wolves by ourselves." "You're Alphas." She deadpanned like that could justify everything in the world. "Doesn't make us infallible." I bit back. "Maybe if the board could be a little bit more considerate about the kinds of missions we were sent on, we wouldn't have a revenge on our hands now." My tone was becoming a lot more disrespectful with each word that came out of my mouth and I noticed my brother stiffen beside me. One of his palms dropped on my thighs, calming me down without words. As expected,
JAYDEN'S POV As soon as Sarah took my hard cock into her mouth, a groan traveled out from my throat. She might be obnoxious and irritable and all of the other depressing shit, but she certainly had a lot of use in the sex department. I grabbed a fistful of her hair to hold her head in one place, then I pulled my cock out of her warm mouth and jammed it back in with enough force to have tears spilling down her face. Her gag reflexes kicked in and she started to make room at the back of her throat for my throbbing member to visit more easily. I didn't even bother with slowing down, I just continued to fuck her mouth all the more violently. By the time I felt the pressure building in my balls, I pulled out, then dragged her off her knees until she was standing in front of me. "Did you like that?" She asked me with a sultry smile on her face. "I'm yet to decide." I spun her around and bent her over the back of the deckchair I was sprawled in when I first came in here with Gwen and
JAYDEN'S POV I didn't bother with waiting for them to snap into action, I was beyond confident that my demands would always be met so I turned on my heels and went in the opposite direction of the open doorway of the room. As expected, the footsteps of the two women escorted me down the stairs and all the way to our suite. When Jeremy came to me fuming that Jordan was beginning to act stupid I hadn't known how to react so I had done the only logical thing, go after my twin. "Jayden, I..." Gwen's annoying voice took over the space in my head as she tried to give me an excuse of some sort. "Can you do yourself a favor and keep your mouth shut, Gwen? I would ask you to speak when I have absolutely no choice but to listen to your annoying voice." That shut her up pretty quickly. My face pulled up into a smile as silence stretched between us all the way to the suite. "What the fuck is she doing here, Jayden? I take it that you intend to punish her?" Jeremy still sounded terribly
GAZELLE'S POV I either didn't hear right or I heard completely wrong. Did Jordan just say he would have one of the Girlfriends bring dinner up to my room? My eyes moved up to meet his in obvious shock, and I noticed he wasn't even staring at me. He was too busy glaring at Sarah, who looked just about ready to have the earth swallow her up, to pay any attention other than the verbal acknowledgement that left me in shock. "What the hell, Jordan?! Are you fucking this pig? Is that why you care so much about her? I would've thought you had better taste than that, being Jayden's brother and all." Sarah's voice is high pitched and ringing with enough disbelief. Just as much as I felt up until het words registered in my skull. What? What was it with everyone and making disgusting assumptions today? Jordan's gaze finally landed on mine and his glare turned icier. I could totally see how he would be pissed off over the fact that people are now assuming he's having... eww with me.
JORDAN'S POV I was feeling a lot of different emotions, all of them in the negative. Gazelle's presence beside was doing a lot more than I expected it could to keep me calm and collected. The spoon in my hand lifted oh so slowly up into my mouth, carrying with it ice-cream that should be divine, but just tasted like sawdust. "What are you guys doing in here?" Jeremy's voice carried through the semi-open doorway. We both looked up at the sound of his voice, one of us frozen in her place. I glanced at her in a very brief way but she didn't even look back, her eyes were pinned on him as he strolled into the room. "Nothing that should concern you." My voice held a finality that would get anyone else to back off, but this was Jeremy I was speaking about. His face morphed into a huge smile. "Ah. You could've invited me to join in the fun." His eyes flickered between Gazelle and me, a knowing smile on his face. I almost gagged at the suggestion he was making. "Gross. Get your s
GAZELLE'S POV After what happened the previous night, I didn't think that I would want to attend another ball night. The plan was to remain in my bed and see Jenna later in the evening since she wasn't ready to see me this morning. But my little rest was caught short as I was sent a reminder of my punishment. I got off the bed dutifully and changed into a loose fitting outfit. I got my cleaning equipment and began my dirt. I cleaned up my dorm and thankfully, some cleaners had already cleaned the girlfriend's floor so I didn't have to deal with the obnoxious girls. The boys dorm was already cleaned so all I had to do was clean the surroundings and the boyfriend's suite. I took my time to clean because I didn't want them around when I was cleaning. By the time I was done with half of Wolverine, the ball had already begun and wolves were beginning to arrive. I spent one more hour cleaning before heading to the Boyfriends suite. There was no one at home which was a
