Liam’s POVMy wolf was right about our mate—she wasn’t doing fine at all. It hurt us to see her that way, but it hurt me more because I felt it through my wolf. Rage felt all her emotions, which still surprises me. I don’t know how he can feel them, but I do know that her emotions broke my wolf, and that hurt me deeply. Normally, I can only feel her emotions after I’ve marked her, which I hope happens soon.Kissing her was beyond anything I had imagined. When our lips met, the world seemed to stop. Her soft, plump lips tasted divine, and I couldn’t help but groan when we parted. I couldn’t have been happier when she asked me to take her away. If only she knew how much I wanted her.I was so glad she loved the beach house. Her reaction meant everything to me. She doesn’t realize how perfect she is. I’m ready to give her the world. Whatever she asks for, I’ll do anything to make her happy.The next morning, I got up quickly and went downstairs to make breakfast for us. Even though I
Liam lets her ride out her orgasm on his hands as he kisses her. This is the furthest they have both gone with each other. Liam holds her tight as they both try to catch their breath. The world fades from their eyes. They stare at one another, the lust in their eyes shining brightly.“No matter how much I’d rather not stop, I’ve got to feed you. Maybe we’ll continue another day,” he says.Without letting her respond, Liam lifts her off the counter and settles her on a chair. He serves the food, and they both start eating. Breakfast is ongoing when the doorbell rings. Just then, Greg walks into the house.“Macy, keep eating. I’ll just talk to him for a few minutes,” Liam says as he stands and goes to Greg, who now stands ten feet away with no emotion on his face. Liam leads Greg outside the house; he doesn’t want to risk Macy overhearing whatever Greg has to say.“What are you doing here? I don’t remember telling you where I was headed,” Liam asks.“I just followed my instincts. Li
Macy POV These past two days with Liam have been wonderful. I used to imagine myself being the only one lusting over him and wanting him, but I guess it's mutual. I bit my lip as I reminisced about the steamy moment we had in his kitchen, the way he kissed me and handled me just like a real man. Yes, Derick is good too, but Liam—he is so different and better. We didn't do much, but I felt satisfied, my body wanting more of his touches. Everything about him is just so perfect, I whispered to myself, smiling. I went straight to my room. As I entered my condo, it looked like someone had been there. The bed was made, and I knew it wasn't me. Derick! He must have come over. Why didn’t I think about him? He must have been worried about me. Liam had advised me to switch off my phone, which I did. I'll have to call Derick later—at least I owe him an explanation for my behavior and my disappearance. I think I should invite him over for dinner. I could prepare his favorite dishes
I stiffened at his words, my heart beating fast as the room fell quiet, his eyes watching me closely. Did he see us? My mind wandered to what might happen if Derick finds out that I spent the past two days with his brother. A war could start between them, and I know Derick well enough to know he won't let it slide. No… no, he can't know what happened, it would break him."Derick, what are you talking about? Uh, of course, there's no one else," I told him, avoiding his gaze."Macy, where did you go these past two days? This time, I want the truth." He said, staring deeply into my eyes."I… I already told you I visited home. What? You don't believe me? So now you think I'm lying?"I yelled at him, still trying to defend myself, knowing it was the only way to prevent chaos. He shook his head at me and pointed his finger in my direction."LIAR!"He growled, and my body trembled at his outburst. He scared me so much right now."I'm not lying. Please, Derick, you have to believe me. Kindl
Derick's POVMy heart ached as I drove away. I felt betrayed. What possible reason would Macy have to lie to me? I know my girl something’s wrong. I swear, if Liam so much as laid a hand on her, I would kill him. I don’t fucking care that he’s the pack’s Alpha. Macy’s my world. I’ve never loved like this in my life. She completes me. These past two years with her have been the best of my entire existence. I won’t lose her, not now or ever.I drove to one of the clubs I own. I fucking needed a drink. Going back to Waterfall isn’t an option right now. I don’t think I’ll be able to control myself around Liam, not until I figure out what’s going on and why the hell he’s involving himself with my girl. I walked into the club. It was packed with drunk and horny people, and it smelled like sweat mixed with sex. I went through the VIP door at the back and walked straight to the VVIP lounge. A waitress brought me a bottle of whiskey. I didn’t bother with a glass, just downed the contents
I lost track of time as I sat there, drowning in the sorrow of my brother's betrayal. The liquor had already done its work. I knew I was beyond drunk. I looked up and saw Miles still rooted in his seat, typing away at something on his phone.Not only that, but I felt hands on my shoulder. I turned to see Macy in a beautiful red dress. She smiled at me, and I was confused. When did she get here?“Macy? What are you doing here?”“I’m here for you, Derick. I missed you so much.”That voice didn’t sound like Macy’s, I thought. And Macy’s hair color is black, but the Macy in front of me was blonde. I blinked my eyes, maybe they were deceiving me.“How did you get here?” I asked in my drunk voice. I stared at her face, and she smiled lovingly at me. My heart fluttered at her actions. If this was a dream, then I’d rather not wake up, I thought. She raised her hand and touched my face with her soft fingers. I held onto her hand, keeping it there.“Derick, you called me over. Don’t you reme
I quickly took a shower and left the house. I got in my car and drove off. Arriving at Macy's apartment, I sat in my car, contemplating whether I should go up or not. It was the weekend, and she didn’t have work today, so I knew she was home.If there’s one thing the Moon Goddess blessed me with, it’s my sensitive nose. Among my pack, my sense of smell is the best. I don’t know why, but I’ve always been the one who could perceive things from afar, even at a young age. I smelled it again—werewolf.This one’s close, I thought. Why are shape-shifters suddenly interested in this neighborhood? I sat in my car, eyes wandering around, hoping I might catch him this time. I stepped out of my car and followed the scent in its direction. The moment he saw me, he darted off running again. Not this time. I’m not letting you go that easy again, I muttered as I chased him into the woods opposite the apartment building. He was fast, but not as fast as me. In no time, I caught up with him, hit hi
Macy's povI stared at the pictures, my hands shaking as I held them. Staring right back at me was a picture of myself and Liam walking together on the beach. There were so many pictures of us together at Liam's beach house, from the moment I arrived to the moment I left.My heart was beating so fast and loud, it felt like it could be heard from a mile away.“De...De...rick, what is this?” I asked Derick, stuttering.“I’m all ears, Macy. I’m waiting for an explanation,” he said in a very calm tone, but it scared the hell out of me.I stayed quiet, not knowing what to say. How did he get these? I asked myself. What should I do? I can’t let a fight break out because of my selfishness. How can I want two brothers at the same time? I thought.Derick stared at me, his eyes not moving an inch from my face as he studied me. The tension in the room was so thick, it became so quiet you could hear a pin drop.“I’m waiting, Macy. These pictures won’t explain themselves,” he said.“Derick, it’s
Who on earth decided to ruin my fun? I murmur inwardly. Macy stiffens in my arms, her heart beating so loudly that I glance down to see her face red with blush. Another knock comes at the door, and I swear I’m about to lose it.“I’m sorry I have to cut our little fun short, but I promise we’ll continue this later,” I say to my mate, whose head is bent low. I lift her chin so she meets my gaze, but she bites her lip, avoiding my eyes and shifting them nervously.“Macy, did you hear me?”She nods, still avoiding eye contact. “Um, my hands… are still, um, on your…” She trails off, motioning to where her hands still rest against my very hard cock through my pants.I smirk and press her hands against me, giving a slight squeeze. A groan escapes my lips at the sensation. Macy’s eyes widen in shock, and she tries to pull her hands away.“What are you doing?” she asks, her voice shaky.“I want you to feel what you do to me,” I say, my voice low. “And trust me, Macy, only you can make me f
I pause in my actions, a smile on my face turning into laughter. My laughter fills the room as I turn to my mate, who is simply staring at me, her face void of expression.“I apologize for laughing. I just wasn’t expecting a question like that from you,” I tell her.“Well, then stop laughing and tell me what it means. I overheard that man back at the warehouse calling you an Alpha, and just now, the maid who left called you the same thing.”Her face looks so innocent, her hair tied up in a bun with strands falling loose around her cheeks. My eyes trail down to her pink, plump lips, slightly parted. They call out to me to kiss and claim. I swallow hard, staring at her lustfully.“Liam, can you hear me?” Her voice pulls me out of my inappropriate thoughts.I blink and shake my head. I must be going crazy.“It’s normal to lust after your mate, especially when she’s this hot,” my wolf purrs in my head. I take a deep breath and smile at her.“Uh, an Alpha is like a leader, someone superi
Liam's POVMy mate’s question was simple but hard to answer. I walked away from my spot and moved toward the bed where she lay. Fear and anger were clear in her eyes as she stared at me.I felt bad. It was my fault she went through all that pain and discomfort.“Macy, I’m sorry you had to go through all that,” I said, my voice full of guilt. “And yes, you could say it was because of me that you were kidnapped.”“What? Why was I kidnapped when I didn’t even know anything?” she asked in a trembling voice.“Macy, Henry was a cruel man who had lost his mind. He brought this upon himself. Please, don’t be angry with Liam,” my dad tried to explain.“No, Dad. This is my fault. If I had finished the job, we wouldn’t have gone through all this trouble. Macy has every right to be angry with me,” I said, turning to look at my mate.Her eyes stayed on me, and I could feel her emotions, confusion, hurt, and anger all over the place. Thanks to my wolf, I could sense them even without her being ma
Macy's POVI woke up with a resounding headache, my head throbbing as if it were about to split in two. I looked around, trying to figure out where I was because this wasn’t my room. The room I was in was much bigger than my entire condo.I blinked my eyes, struggling to register my surroundings. I realized I was on a massive bed, and the entire room was painted in shades of grey. Even the sheets matched. This room was so large that another bed could fit in here, and there would still be plenty of space. Whose room am I in?As I tried to gather my thoughts, I heard the door open. I turned my gaze toward it and saw a girl in servant clothing walking in. She looked shocked but happy to see me awake. She smiled at me warmly, and I couldn’t help but smile back.“You’re finally awake! How do you feel, Ma’am?” she asked in a soft, friendly tone.“I feel thirsty,” I replied.The girl, who couldn’t be more than twenty, walked over to a table in the corner, picked up a jug of water, and po
My heart leaped with both joy and fear. At least she was awake and out of danger, but now she would need explanations for what had happened earlier. I won’t lie, I was nervous about how she would react.Quickly, I jumped to my feet and ran upstairs. I entered my room and saw Mom and a few maids surrounding her. The room was filled with her intoxicating, mouth-watering scent that made my wolf excited.I walked further into the room and saw her small silhouette sitting on the bed, her back against the frame. Her hair was scattered from just waking up, and Mom seemed to be whispering something to her.The moment our eyes met, I saw her expression change to one thing I feared: FEAR.She looked terrified, fear etched on her beautiful face, her mouth quivering as she tried to speak.“St…op, please…don’t come close…you, I saw you,” she stammered, her hand raised and pointing at me, trying to stop me. My heart broke at her actions.“Macy, I would never hurt you. You know that,” I tried exp
I woke up two hours later, and Macy was still unconscious, just like before. I leaned closer to her on the bed, so close I could feel her breath on my face. My hands moved to her face, gently pushing back some strands of hair that had fallen and covered part of her face.She looked so beautiful. Mom had cleaned her up earlier, after the doctor left, and helped change her clothes into my T-shirt and some sweatpants so she could sleep comfortably.I reluctantly left the bed and the room after taking a quick shower and changing my clothes. I walked downstairs to the living room. Both my brother and Beta were back, sitting on different cushions with worried looks on their faces.“How did the cleanup go?”“Everything is done, we cleared the place, Alpha,” Greg answered.The tone in which he responded didn’t give much away. Something wasn’t right. I shifted my gaze to my brother, and his expression was no different from that of my Beta.“Go on, spill it. What’s the matter?” I asked, curious
Liam's POVWe arrived at Waterfall in no time, and I saw my father and mother standing in front of the pack house with one of the pack's doctors waiting. I had mind-linked Dad earlier to inform him of my arrival and to arrange for a doctor to examine Macy. I quickly got out of the car, carried my unconscious mate in my arms, and walked into the pack house. I went straight upstairs to my room and gently placed her on the bed.She looked so peaceful in this state, though her face was very pale. I sat next to her on the bed, holding her hands in mine as I watched her. The pack's doctor walked in with both my parents behind him."Alpha, if you don't mind me checking on her," the doctor said, his voice tinged with fear.Reluctantly, I let go of her hands. With an annoyed, jealous wolf, I had to leave her side so the doctor could do his job and check on her. Rage didn't want to take any chances leaving her side, even for a minute. The fear of almost losing her, even before we had her,
Macy's POVAll through the night, I couldn’t sleep. I waited patiently for the morning to come. I was scared and didn’t want to die like this. I had so many dreams to fulfill. I wanted to get married and have kids of my own, live in a small house with a garden out back, and a husband who loved me without doubt.I stared out the little window of the tiny room just above the bed. There was no moon or stars in the sky. I sighed. Maybe even the moon and stars couldn’t bear to watch my plight. I didn’t even get to say goodbye to my grandma and Lori. My mind wandered to them. They must be so worried about me.I decided to sing my favorite song, the one my mom taught me when I was younger. That was before she died. It became my favorite after she passed. My mother loved music, too. She taught me how to play the guitar and piano when I turned six. Those moments were the happiest of my life.My family was complete then, me, Mom, Dad, and Grandma. We used to have so much fun. There wasn’t a
Liam's povMy brother fought against all three of them, keeping them away from my mate. Henry was growing weaker in our fight.I noticed he couldn’t fight like before. His face was badly bruised from all my blows.I pushed him to the ground, but he dragged me down with him. We crashed into a table, shattering it to pieces.Derick was still battling the three rogues when they suddenly began shifting into their wolf forms right in front of Macy. The room filled with the loud growls of wolves. I knew I had to help my brother. He was strong, but he couldn’t take on all three while also protecting my human mate.I threw Henry off me, grabbed him, and hurled him against the hard wall. His body hit the wall with a loud thud. When I turned, I saw the rogues in their wolf forms stalking Derick, their growls and fangs bared menacingly.Without hesitation, I ran toward them, leaping into the air and shifting into my large black wolf mid-jump. I growled threateningly, baring my fangs as I joine
