I stuck his blade in the waist of my dress and fled back toward camp.“Really, Sam?” He called after me. “Do you honestly think you’re going to get away from me?”Really, Jaecar. You bastard.He tossed his arms. “I’m a Border Guard! I hunt down intruders all night. Most nights.”“I’m not an intruder!” I tossed over my shoulder. Not slowing my pace.My animosity growing with each step. The mere fact that I was fleeing someone I had considered myself so close to was not lost on me.He wasn’t moving.Probably thinking he’ll catch up to me easily enough.He’s underestimated me. I thought. Confidence beginning to surge.You’re just like them afterall, Jaecar!***Perhaps someone would’ve thought it was silly that I would flee the one man I trusted from our camp when he offered to be my mate.But that person clearly didn’t understand the nature of the Asara males.Being collected by the former alpha meant they were the most aggressive, most ferocious of any wolves out there.Each of them ne
He pinned one of my forearms under each of his knees. His weight making his bone press into the soft tissues of my arm.Ouch!“You’re not tying me up, Jaecar!” I screamed louder this time. A panicked note touching my voice as I tried to buck my hips enough to free myself.“The Hell I’m not.” He muttered. Balancing as he straddled my waist. Untwisting the rope, he pulled his dagger from the tie at my waist. Cutting the rope into four chunks, he laid them out next to us, ominously. Before staring at me as he purposefully shoving it back in his hip scabbard.Angry I’d stolen it to begin with. I didn’t feel bad since I’d stolen it in order to save myself. No remorse to be had there!“Jaecar!” I pleaded. “This is me we’re talking about. You and I have been friends forever!”Have you lost your mind?“Yes. And now we’re going to be more. Much more.” He asserted.***“You don’t want to mate with me!” I cried. “This is insanity.”Why is he pushing this now?What’s happened?He paused with cutt
Jaecar's light green eyes appeared in my line of vision.I cast him a last pleading look. Willing him to suddenly have a change of heart and let me go."Wait for me." He said. Urging, "Quietly."My lips twitched in contempt as I glared at him. The Hell I will!"Remember, if you scream, if you struggle, the pack will hear you."And they'll all want to mate. I knew it without him having to say it. I deflated a little at the thought. And my struggling could make me sweat which would only carry my hormone better in the wind.Filling this whole tree with my smell. I grimaced.“I have to go to the Pack Meeting and then I’ll be back for you.”I’ll figure out a way to escape him by then. I reassured myself. Studying me a minute and seeing that I understood he gave a satisfied nod and turned stiffly.Thankful for the reprieve, I blew a long breath and my body relaxed. He's gone.For a while. A niggling little voice corrected.***What a fantastic day this is turning out to be!I knew if I was
JAECARJaecar could hear the distant footfalls of females on the run.Afraid of us, thanks to Marta’s tales.Females that thought they might be killed during the mating or marking because of the myths spread by the older females in the pack. So now some of the females were terrified of mating.Females like Sam.Guilt burned through Jaecar as he imagined the things tearing through her mind while she was tied up and tucked down in that tree. Afraid of what all he’d do to her.He couldn’t really blame her for that when even he was afraid of what he might do once his beast began taking over. Especially considering how long he’d craved her.I’m afraid of what I could do to her. He knew how much his beast wanted to brutalize her. Take her like the animal he was.Just thinking it had his eyes shimmering yellow and his skin bubbling as muscles yearned to adjust into wolf form.But doing so under the Mating Moon will make it nearly impossible to turn back. And Jaecar knew that as the animal, h
SAMANTHAI could hear the first snuffling as the sun was setting. A wolf had tracked me out here and was huffing near the tree."Get back to camp!" I heard Jaecar's voice. Growling in dangerous warning. Then I heard a thud and the sound of bones crunching.A yip indicating the wolf was hurt.Jaecar stepped into view and delivered another ruthless kick to the wolf’s ribs. "Get out of here!" He grated out. "My territory!"The wolf gave a shrill whine and trudged from my view.Jaecar's eyes were level with the peepholes again, but I could see now they were slitted.He's feral now. I could tell just from looking at him. I'd never seen him like this.Every year before I'd locked myself in the hut and he'd helped me fortify it and put on the extra locks so no amount of charging or digging would get the wolves into my domain.Every year I was safe. Because of him.Now I won't be...Because of him? It didn't seem right. It felt like the deepest betrayal.He knocked aside the bit of wood blocki
Panic was setting in and I lurched up to escape him. Twisting my thighs to get away.His hands landed on them. Fingers biting to keep them in place. His hips were between my legs and his pelvis aligned atop mine. Smashing his hard length between us.To keep me in place.“Sam!” He commanded. “This is happening. I can be gentle if you don’t resist me.”He pushed my thighs further apart and landed over me in a pushup. Making it impossible to close my legs since he already lay between them.I shifted my thighs and bounced my pelvis trying to move him off of me.I don’t want to die. Fear roared through me.I imagined him taking me and sinking his teeth into my neck while blood spurted out until I lay limp on the floor.He could kill me. He’s so much bigger and stronger than me.He could snap my bones by barely moving in this state. I could see the bits of gray hair pushing through his pores. His eyes were yellow, and canines crept from the line of his upper lip.***He shook his head like
His muscled buttocks flexed as he probed deep beneath my stomach. Making me shout around the ribbon in my mouth at the unfamiliar stretching and the feeling of being so filled. Wondering how much more I could take.Feeling almost as though he might tear through me.He tipped his head, staring at me as though he yearned to see into me. To know my thoughts and feel what I was feeling. Suddenly he was still, his body tightening and craning back as he seemed to swell even fuller inside me.There was hot moistness deep in me and I suddenly knew this was what he meant by 'seeding.'He'd filled my body with the evidence of his pleasure.Grunting he collapsed over me. His knees drawing up on each side of my hips. Making my legs drape his sinewed thighs. He summoned enough strength to pull his tunic over his head. Yanking his pants further down his thighs before he dropped all that bared skin atop me.His flesh was alive with heat. Making him almost seem like he was on fire. He was breathing r
He reared back as though I'd hit him. "The Hell if you think so!"His feral eyes narrowed on me. "I was being kind, but you'll pay for saying that. You'll ache tomorrow. I'm going to fuck you until all you feel is me in your body with every step you take. To remind you who you belong to!"What have I done? I knew better than to incite a wolf. Especially one under a Mating Moon.Have I lost my mind? What was I thinking? I knew my mistake, but my fear was driving my foolish tongue."No! I don’t belong to you, Jaecar!” I cried defiantly. Trying to distance myself from the immense fear I was feeling.It didn’t dawn on me in the least, that what I’d said could’ve hurt him and he’d retaliate in kind. The Mating Moon making him excessively vicious, aggressive and possessive."Yes." He withdrew to slam back into me. Intent on showing me my place. “Here.”Then he strained forward to fist my hair at the side of my head. “Here.”My mind.He let my hair go to trail a flat hand down my sternum and
He can do this all night. I realized in horror. Wondering how I’d ever survive it. I’d taken many wolves when I was the pack bitch but there had been breaks between the males then. Times for me to recover before the next awful interaction. Not now. As soon as he’d finished, he was taking me again. I could barely catch my breath. I was so tired that my body shook limply. But I knew what he was doing. He’s going to force me to change. Everytime the pleasure climbed through me and exploded, I came closer to her. I was realizing he could do this to me all night. He’s showing no signs of relenting. Nothing I can do. Nothing I can say, will stop him. I realized the awful truth. Limply letting him take me. Even as I was thinking it, my core tightened again. Sending surges through me. Even more powerful than the last time. White hot heat burned through my being, and I felt my muscles cooking like lava and bones starting to snap. I huffed in exhaustion. Barely noticing this strange
His length was impossible. Seeming even bigger than the last time. His whole body was tight. Every muscle bulging as he resisted turning himself. Knowing that he might lose control entirely if he did. But the words that came from him next were the last I could’ve ever suspected. “Tell me, Lara, and I’ll go a bit easier on you.” “Tell you what?” I spat. Unable to focus on anything but my straining body and the sore spots and ached each time he brushed over them. “What broke you.” “Nothing!” I screamed. “I’m strong. You’ve never broken me.” He paused momentarily. Holding my narrow waist in his hands and staring down at me so long that I felt the need to twist and look back at him. “I didn’t say me.” I shook my head adamantly. “Tell me.” He caressed more slowly. Painstakingly pressing in and then easing that torrid length back out. Bit by bit. “What happened to you before the Asara. What destroyed you so badly that
I woke to strange smells, too much heat and a hand cupped around my breast, pulling it further to the center. There was tugging on the little pink crest that seemed to have a direct line down to the center of me. Making it reflexively tighten there. Creating an ache and a tension that reminded me he was still there. He didn’t remove himself. We’d both fallen asleep with him still planted within my sweet hollow. And he’s not about to leave now. He moaned and became a bit forceful. Suckling that fleshy bit more roughly. Nipping it between his teeth and stretching it. Making me cry out at the shocking pleasure of it. I couldn’t see any light to gauge the time, but I could feel the lustful aggression still rolling off him. Indicating that it was obviously still night. Still the pink moon. The Mating Moon. He pulled harder and my fingers bit into his scalp, already tangled in his hair. Maki
He felt me tightening around him. I saw the triumph crossing his masculine features as he felt the telltale quakes that whispered I was soon to shatter. Then my back arched. Exciting him further. He cupped my breasts, balancing them against his palms as he rode me harder. Feeling them leap against his hands. The small, hard nipple crossing the crease of his fingers as our pelvis’ joined again. I gave a wolf whine as the pleasure made my legs vibrate, my vision blur and my mind flood with pleasure until I was utterly lost to the sensation. I soaked him when I climaxed. Slicking all around him and seeping out to dampen his sack. “Yes, mate. Come for me. Show me how good you are…” He was grinning as he thrust in and held it, enjoying my surrender. I went limp, exhausted from the exertion of every muscle in my body jerking tight and then releasing until they could no longer tighten. But his next words made my heart sink.
I twisted to look at him but saw only conviction in his eyes. The hardening of his jaw as he slowly shook his head. Leaning back to give me a long, meaningful look as he purposefully stroked his hand down my spine. Making the skin tingle in a warm trail that I could feel even as his touch stopped. He wouldn’t. But his excited grunting and moaning, and the ferocious flexing of his biceps as he pumped violently combined with that steady look, he was giving me, indicated he wasn’t going to stop. I knew a moment of renewed panic. “Alaric, it could-” “You’re mine, Lara!” He growled as he tipped forward over me. His stomach tightening in a ripple that climbed through his chest. I felt him surge inside me. “Mine!” He roared. I could hear the animal inside him snarling as it overtook him. Wanting to possess me in every way that was physically possible. Wanting to own me. I was stunned at his sh
I was always the one in control. And I wasn’t ready to give that up. I began struggling against him. My thighs thudded into the edge of the table, and my hips ground into it as I tried to escape him. Tried to slide away from him. Before I fully turned and welcomed him as a mate. There would be no turning back if I did it, this time. He’ll keep me forever. He was callous and relentless. He was grunting. Slamming harder and harder into me. The wood table scraped along the stone beneath it. Swaying slightly with each hard thrust. Rocking and creaking with his movements. Giving him just enough mobility to push forward and then bringing my own weight back to him. Offering him the next hard entry. Invading the center of my body as he speared into me with such force that I was losing my mind. All sense of thought was vanishing. My face was flushing. My hair was prickling. I clawed the table n
He threw my skirts up. Forcing them under my stomach and shoving me down to pin them against the corner of the table beneath me. Then pulling the back of my skirts up over my buttocks. Exposing me to his lush perusal. I closed my eyes tight against the aching vulnerability of the situation. The burning humiliation that heated my face. He’s going to take me. I could feel his eyes roving my pale skin. I felt him palm one firm buttock. Squeezing it to fully appreciate its suppleness before turning his hand downward to palm all that sweet flesh. He groaned in pleasure. Pressing himself against me. Grinding himself along my crack in his hunger to have me. He’s already hard as a rock. I heard his buckle loosening again, feeling my body tightening in fearful response. “No!” I cried. Shaking my head wildly. Tossing my blonde hair around me like caught in a whirlwind. “I’ve changed my mind. I don’t want this.”
I’d long ago vowed to never be commanded by any male. Not after they’d all owned me. Treated me like a hole to please them and nothing more. I’d spent hour after hour in a dark shack. With sweating males rutting away at me. Down on my hands and knees on a dirt floor. My body jerking upward. Occasionally they’d yank my hair. Or spin on their palm before they brutally smacked my ass. Sometimes, if they were particularly cruel, they’d push into my ass while they did all of those things. Trying to hurt me. Body after sweaty male body. Drowning me in that horrible moldy, blood-soaked odor as they took from me what I had no choice but to give. So, I’d become in control of who could tell me what to do. Until now. Until Alaric. In that moment I both hated him and desired him. "Alaric, please." I whispered fearfully as he returned to pin me against the wall ag
Alaric was right. I was already wet for him, but my pride demanded I not admit that my foolish body was reacting even though I didn't want it to. Damn him. "Alaric, stop." I whispered it so weakly, even I knew I didn't mean it. He laughed. "That's not what you want, is it?" He purred against my cheek. Making goosebumps rise on every inch of my flesh. Making bits of fur push at my pores trying to rise. A primal growl erupted from my throat. And I felt the tingling behind my eyes that told me they were changing to yellow. Suddenly every shadow in the black dungeon came to life. Blooming into hazy shapes I could now identify. "Are you ready to be treated like a true female, rather than a princess trying to demand what she wants?" He released my body, and I felt a chilly sense of loss combined with a great sense of relief. My leg dropped back down and he took a step back. I'd withstood this onslaught. Pride int
