After we cleared the table, there were a lot of dishes in the sink waiting for us. I tackled them right away and Jake tried to help. Needless to say, cleaning turned into a splashing contest and our shirts were soaked after. Somehow we managed to get them all done and Viktor threw some longs into the fireplace.
I shivered as the wet material clung to my body. “I’m going to get a new shirt,” I said. Viktor grabbed another log and looked up at me. “Someone,” I glared at Jake, “decided to play with the water as if we were kids in a tub.”
I took the stairs three at a time and Viktor called up after me. “I saw two kids splashing around in the kitchen!” I can’t help but laugh as I push my door open. I’ll pretend I didn’t hear that. I found a blue shirt that says FUN FACT: I don’t care and I slipped it on. The door opens behind me and I
Kacie“The Breakfast Club will never get old,” I said with a sigh. I sat sandwiched between two large warm bodies. Jake had pulled my leg up and over his and Viktor held my hand. Jake’s fingers trailed circles into my thigh and I rested my head on Viktor’s shoulder.“It’s a classic,” Viktor said. I stared down at our entwined fingers as I tried to work out how to start the ‘us’ conversation.“So what’s next on the schedule?” Jake asked.“I’ve had fun just hanging out with you guys. No pack to run, no responsibilities, no fire burning problems… I needed this. I needed this badly. Thank you for planning this out,” I said. Viktor squeezed my hand and our eyes met when I raised my chin. For a long second, I took in his charcoal eyes, the way they darkened as he returned my gaze, his pink lips that
Kacie“I’m scared of this overwhelming feeling of security I feel with you two. I’m terrified I’m going to want forever. I’m going to fool myself into believing I have it just to have it pulled out from under my feet,” Jake said with a shrug. “This feels so good, so right, I don’t want to go back to a life without you guys.”“It feels right because it is right,” I said.“If we’re being honest, I’m not either of your mates,” Jake said.“Do you have to be our mate for us to love you?” Viktor asked. “Have I not loved you for years?”“I already told you you belong with us,” I said. “Did you not feel that way last night? Did you not feel like you held a place with us?” I asked.“I felt everything and more
KacieI push the door open and run through the doorway. The guys only stopped at the top of the stairs to strip down to their briefs. They rush into the room and I squeal with excitement. Jake caught up to me first, his arms wrapped around me and he backed me up into the wall. He grabbed my wrists and threw them up above my head.My heart is racing, I’ve been caught and I honestly love it. I stare up at Jake tauntingly and a sensual smile spreads across my face.“Our little Luna is a tease,” Jake said. He said it like it wasn’t a bad thing and I smiled up at him. Before I can say anything, Viktor takes a step closer and my eyes flicker to him. He’s staring down at me with a hungry look and Goddess, I want him to take a bite.“She is,” Viktor said. “What are we going to do about our little tease?” He asked.&ldqu
Kacie His eyes hungrily trail over Viktor’s exposed flesh. Jake looks up at Viktor and the emotion I find there is sadness. His eyes search Viktor’s face and I hold my breath while I wait for him to speak. “I’m sorry,” Jake said. “I don’t think I’ve apologized for what I let happen while you were gone. I should have done better, been better.” Viktor’s eyes soften and his hand runs through Jake’s hair. “It’s okay, there’s nothing to forgive,” Viktor murmurs. The relief washes over Jake but he shakes his head. “It isn’t okay,” Jake whispered. “Let me make it up to you.” Jake doesn’t wait for Viktor to answer, he wraps his hand around the base of his thick cock. I watch as his wet pink tongue darts out and licks Viktor’s tip. It’s wet and when Jake licks it again a line of liquid connects his tongue to Viktor’s tip. The sight is erotic and has the temperature in
Kacie“Yours,” I cry.The possessiveness in Viktor’s voice and the desperation in Jake’s eyes as he looks up at me is overwhelming. I’m lifted slowly off of Viktor’s length and I moan as I’m shoved back down. I focus on the pleasure he’s giving me as he fills me. He’s hard, his body demanding as he stretches and owns me.“She feels so good,” Viktor grunts from behind me. His voice is in my ear and his breath on my neck. Jake’s eyes widened and I open y eyes to see his drop to where Viktor and I connect. His lips part and the heat of his gaze on me has a sinful shiver running up my spine. I arch as it reaches my shoulders and Viktor pounds into me.He lifts me up and down his length like I’m a bag of rice. He slams me down hard and slow and I can feel myself tightening as he starts hitting the sweet sweet spot de
KacieI come immediately. I come hard. I come fast. My ass and push clench and I grip them both tightly and succumb to the way my body follows his command. Viktor thrusts up into me, unwilling to let me be. He jerks up into me, his hands grinding me down hard on him.“Good girl,” Viktor growled.“She’s milking your cock but you’re not giving her anything,” Jake murmured. Jake’s fingers leave me and I fall limp on Viktor. They have thoroughly used my body, they’ve given and taken, and I’m fully sated.“She is and she’s doing such a good job.”“What are you waiting for, Alpha?” Jake asked.“You. I’m waiting for you,” Viktor grunted. “I want us to come together.”Jake’s fingers leave me and my body fall
KacieI headed out the door to the car with my mind on our return. I’d be lying if I said I wasn’t nervous. I couldn’t see a lot of changes taking place but there would be change. I had to stop worrying about it but with all of our bags in the back of the car, we were ready to go. It didn’t matter if I was ready, it was happening.I’d helped Jake and Viktor this morning after our last meal here. I was already missing the fresh mountain air and freedom I felt up here. When we arrived everything was uncertain and my life felt as if it were falling apart. Now that I’m leaving it feels like everything is in its place.Mentally, I wrote a list of what I needed to focus on when we got back. I’d need to join in on the runs, possibly reach out to Clara, and tell Jamie about us. As Gamma, she would be around us more and I’d rather tell her than her find out.
KacieA little of my fears were erased. It felt good knowing Jamie was being supportive. There was still the pack to convince but I wouldn’t focus on that right now. Jamie throws open the door to the office and the guys follow us in.It’s spotless, there wasn’t a speck of dust in sight. The workers keep up the cleaning schedule even if he’s gone. Viktor strode in and took a seat behind his desk. Jake stood to the right of his desk and Jamie walked over to the left; taking me with her.“I’m glad to have you guys home but now it’s time to get back to it. A messenger from the pack Silver Moon reached out. Viktor is being summoned for a meeting with the Alpha’s of the surrounding pack.”“Regarding what?” Viktor asked.“The letter wasn’t specific but go ahead and take a look. It’s inside
My heat aches as the thoughts flit through my mind one after the other. Tears prick the corners of my eyes before filling them. My chest pangs with the need to be wrapped up in his arms. I know without a shadow of a doubt that Jake would do all of those things. He would care for me as he had before. He would look after me as my Beta, my partner, and the father of our child.My soul wept for him, my heart broke for him, and my mind went mad for him. I curled into a ball on the bed and grasped at the sheets as the pain poured from my body. I screamed as it became unbearable and my vision went white. I cried out, my cry turning into a scream, as the door burst open. It slammed against the wall, but still my vision remained impaired.I couldn’t see anyone, but I heard voices. I felt the rush of people around me and hands checking me and prodding my belly. I froze when I felt the warmth of a hand on my shoulder and a familiar scent I didn’t think I would ever smell again. I threw my head ba
Kacie I want to bury my head into his chest but I can’t. I can’t bring myself to look away. I continue staring at him as Viktor lays down by his side. He props himself up and stares down at him. The love and sadness in his eyes blend into one. His gaze darts back and forth between the two of us. A sad smile pulling at the corners of his lips. “I love you,” I whisper. “I love you,” Viktor says quietly. We shared stories, we cried, we laughed. I told him about one of the mornings after my Luna Ceremony when I woke up and found Jake naked across from me. He flexed and tried to show off. Viktor chuckled and shared a precious memory from when they first kissed. It was sweet and I wished I could have seen the look in Jake’s eyes if he had heard Viktor tell the story. The next memory Viktor shared with me was the look on Jake’s face when I walked out that first day in Ken’s house. When he smelled me and knew I was his mate, he only trusted Jake to be alone with me. That’s why he let him
Kacie“I have one request,” I said.“Anything my love,” Viktor said.“I don’t want him in the lobby. I want him in our room. Can we do that?” I asked.“We can do whatever we want Kacie,” Viktor answered.In the olden days, it was common for our kind to spend the dead’s last night with them. It was like a ritual, we clean their bodies with a cloth, wash their hair, and clothe them in something loose. After the ritual the body is placed in the living room or the pack lobby if the dead was an alpha. The family would then bring their blankets and pillows to sleep in the front on the couch or the floor. It’s the last night you get with the dead. It’s a form of closure and was done away with one hundred years ago, or at least that’s what Viktor told me. When he told me about it I clung to the knowledge and asked him if we could do it too. He admitted that he mentioned it to gouge my reaction. We looked into each others eyes and knew without a doubt that we needed to do it.It may have been
Kacie “I’ve failed. I failed and lost him,” Viktor said. The weight on his shoulders was large enough to make anyone crumble beneath it. Still, my mate stood firm. My heart broke for the mate we’d lost, but it soared knowing that he was safe. Instead of keeping my thoughts to myself I would make sure he knew. I would make sure he knew every day how much I loved him, how much I needed him in my life. I would make sure he knew how loved he was, but first, he needed to face Jake. He needed to come to grips with it as I have. He needs to make peace with it, so he can move forward. We both needed this. “Come here,” I said. I watched as he mentally drew back, away from me as if he would hurt me. As if he thought he’d lose me too if he touched me. I reached for him, my outstretched hand open in offering for him to take it. He had to take it. Viktor stared at my hand for a moment before his eyes darted to Jake on the ground between us. Desperation clear in his eyes when he looked back at m
Kacie In an attempt to feel whatever warmth Jake had left I pushed my body as close as I could to his. I ignored the unevenness of his body, the difference between it now and what I remembered. Everything in me came flowing out as my hair flowed out all around me. My hands grasped at his muddy shirt and my heart broke for the second time today. Jake’s body was hard and the finality of it pulled the sheet from beneath my feet. I was no longer able to deny the crushing reality. The warmth was seeping out of him as quickly as the clouds had formed above us. Footsteps squelched behind me announcing Viktor’s presence. My pain vibrated in his chest as he stopped behind me. It was enough to pull him away from mourning his sister. The curiosity outweighing the fear led him to me. I could feel his pain as he felt mine. I knew when he saw who lay beneath me because he made an unintelligible sound behind me. Still, I couldn’t bring myself to lift my head. I couldn’t look back at him. I couldn’
KacieI’ll hurt you.I don’t want to hurt you.I don’t want to hurt him. I wouldn’t hurt him. The urge, no, the need to make sure I don’t hurt him runs through my veins as the idea of burning him strikes me hard in the chest. It’s like an ice cold bucket of water and I feel like I’ve jolted awake from a dream. The flames protest against my will as my mind refuses to hurt the man in front of me. For the first time since becoming aware I look at him. My eyes wander over black hair, a sharp jaw, and full lips. Dark tired eyes filled with worry stared down at me. My mate reaches for me a second time and this time I extinguish the flames with the flick of my wrist as realization dawned on me.My mate.He’s okay.He’s alive.If my mate is here than why am I so hurt?My does my heart bleed?I lean in toward him and his hand gently grazes over my cheek, his shoulders relaxed, and relief stared back at me. I was safe. I was in one piece. I had survived. If he hadn’t gotten my attention things
Kacie My father’s breathing is haggard and strained beneath me. At my words he roars angrily. He’s weak, useless below me, unable to get away. When I straighten my back, lift myself up, and stare down at him. I take a moment to look over the expression of fear and regret in his eyes. I don’t bother with emotion because right now, I feel nothing. There’s only a high, a haze of bliss from his acceptance. It’s settled over me as I hover over him. The power of taking what I want, getting the revenge I sent out for. I’m hurting him, torturing him, killing him. I focus on this as he stares up at me. “All of this will do nothing. You may have killed my friends and you may have won the fight between you and I, but there’s one you haven’t and can’t win. You can’t win against death,” Charles chokes. I don’t want to hear anymore. I don’t want to hear the truth drip from his lips like poisoned honey. I won’t let him win and I won’t let his words get to me. I won’t change my mind and I won’t hea
Charles yanked his arm back but I didn’t let go. I did the opposite, I dug my nails in as he pulled, my claws dug into his skin and ripped. Blood pooled and burned, he yanked again this time, ignoring the bite of my nails as they pierced deeper. He wrenched his arm free, or what was left of it. I could feel his skin under my claws, chunks of meat between my fingers, as he cried out in pain. I take a moment to enjoy my work. His once scorched pink skin had turned black, blood ran down his arm and dripped to the floor. Charles turned to glare at me, and for the first time since meeting him, fear stares back at me. He clutched his injured arm and I watch as his Adam’s apple bobs as he swallows nervously. Sweat pools on his temple and slides down his brow. I chuckle at this small victory. He must have thought that I would be an easy kill. The young girl he once knew died a long time ago. Did he think that his words would have weakened me? Did he think that his words would have an affect
KacieNow that I knew Viktor would be okay, I could give in to what I’ve wanted since seeing the devastation the Elders caused. Now that I knew that Clara would have Viktor, I felt the opposite of what I’ve before at the thought of them together alone. I felt relief. She would make sure he was safe. I turned from Clara and focused on that man I once called father.Answering to the call of my growing flames I dashed forward. I promised to give them what they wished soon. The need for blood, for sliced skin, and the smell of burning flesh drove me forward. I would have what I desired, I would have my vengeance, my revenge. My anger fanned the flames and they grew hotter than they ever have before. I screamed out in anguish as I rushed toward the man who should have been the father I deserved. He was nothing but a disappointment.Tears run down my cheeks before they dry up and evaporate. I don’t cry for him or what I’m going to do, no, I’ll revel in my father’s death. The tears continue
