Cole settled back against the tub, taking his time to wash her body. His body growing attuned to hers and he could feel every pleasurable torture he was dealing her. Her hardened buds slowly called to him as they taunted him in the dimly lit room. He applied more pressure as he gently rubbed the rough fabric against them, stimulating her and himself and noting how his body grew unbearable hard for her. He started to nibble on the shell of her ear before trailing his lips down the slope of her neck to her collar bone, causing her head to slowly slip to the nook of his neck, her lips brushed his skin and he moaned deep in his throat. “Isabelle!” he called deeply in his throat.He nibbled and peppered kisses on her skin and allowed his hand to move down her front and in between her legs. He dropped the wash towel then and used his middle finger to stroke her labia. Isabelle moaned, feeling completely boneless in his arms. She doubted her inability to move now was all because of the dru
“Tell me what you want the most right now?” Cole asked as Isabelle snuggled against his side with her head resting on his shoulder and her forehead pressed to the side of his hard jaw. “What I want?” she repeated the question as she smoothed her open palm against his bulging pectoral.“Yes,” Cole said in a whisper, angling his face so he could brush his lips against her forehead. Isabelle burrowed against him in reflex, pressing her lush breast to his skin. She raised a folded knee to rest on his strong thighs, acutely aware of his still throbbing cock lying in between his long, muscled legs. She deliberately rubbed her skin against him, and the arm he laid on her waist tightened in reflex, and then resumed caressing her supple skin.“You—” she said. He chuckled and turned his face fully to face her as he raised a hand to cup her chin. He tilted her face so he could look down into her eyes. “Aside from me—what else do you want?” He said, giving her keen scrutiny with his eyes shinin
“I have something for you,” Cole said and went to bring out a package from his backpack. “What is it?” Isabelle asked as she tried to sit up, still feeling a little weak. “New joggers with a winter jacket. And a hat.” He smiled and threw her a sheepish smile. “I promise we will go shopping when we get to my ranch.”“What do I need new clothes for?” She asked shyly as he came to kneel in front of her and cupped her beautiful face with his large hands. “I want to take you out on a proper date, wouldn’t you like that?”“I will love to go on a date, I have always wondered what that feels like,” she replied in a soft, sultry voice. “Good. I will very much enjoy letting you have that experience with me. And it’s going to be a first of many.”Isabelle grinned. He chuckled. “I love it when you smile at me like that.”“How?” she asked as he drew her close for a playful kiss “Like I am your world,” he rasped deepening the kiss. His ears pricked. He sighed “Our time is up,” he whispered
“Since we still have to wait for Angel to get back to us. I have two aircraft on standby. I was thinking of asking Ash to send one first to pick Aaron up and find a way to get him back home. The second one which is piloted by Ash himself is to take you, me, Isabelle, Jason, and whoever you want to come with us to my ranch while the wreck here is cleaned. Then the watercraft is to return everyone back when it is safe. Or what do you think?”“It’s a good plan. I will ask Darrow and Wulfrun if they would like to join us, Hallec and Tiana are in charge of getting everything back in order. I hate to leave them to handle all the work. We have three aircraft debris to clear and more than a thousand dead bodies to dispose of. We had to quickly pack them to the grave site in the woods, so the humans wouldn’t see them. I’m kind of torn about what to do with the b
Cole watched as Aaron’s eyes fluttered open and he jerked up into a sitting position, an act which he evidently regretted, because his hands shoot up to hold his head, and then he groaned. And as if noticing he wasn’t alone, he lifted his eyes gingerly and they skipped from one masked face to the other. Cole folded his arms, watching him, not wanting to expose his identity just yet as he moved to stand at the foot of the makeshift hospital bed – which was an old mattress thrown over a wooden bench. “Glad to have you join us, Aaron, we were beginning to get quite impatient. I understand you have a message for us?” Xavier started as he came to stand on one side of the mattress. Jason joined Cole at the foot of the bed while Darrow, Wulfrun and Hallec stood across from Xavier. Aaron swallowed and his hands shook visibly. “I was supposed to make a deal….” he said in a shaky tone. “Let’s hear it,” Xavier replied. Hallec shifted on his feet, causing Aaron to shoot his attention in hi
Isabelle looked down onto the widespread land beneath them. It was morning now and the entire ground was covered with thick layers of snow. A massive log cabin stood at the centre of vast grassland with pine trees and thick tall trees framing the clearing. The cabin was mainly built with sturdy logs and glass partitioned windows. The front of the house was hexagonally shaped with reflective glass. Cole had made it so for security reasons. Despite his tight security systems he still took precautions in the house's architectural design. The back of the house had ridges of a camping tent arranged a few feet from a large fire pit. The area had been cleared of snow and the pile left framed the grounds. But the walk paths were still dusted with freshly fallen snow. The scene made a smile spread over Isabelle’s beautiful face. She had never felt a sense of serenity as the one that filled her inside now. Men in a somewhat military getup paroled the grounds at a strategic spot. For the fir
Tiana and the three gammas that rode with Aaron helped to lift him off of the craft and Ash quickly rushed forward to help. Cole could see he was in a lot of discomforts. His face was hatched with pain. He gestured to them to give him a second as he strode inside the cabin with Isabelle. She lifted her face from his chest to look around, looking up at the high ceiling and noting how exquisite the house was. Cole placed her on a big, plush leather couch and pressed a kiss to her forehead. “I will be right back, if you are up to it, explore the place. But please, love, don’t fall off,” he said. Isabelle nodded. Cole paused for about a second before dropping a kiss on her lips. “Give me ten minutes, I will be back to take care of you,” he said. She nodded. Cole left then, and joined the others, leading them to a shed outback. Isabelle noted she could see everything happening from the inside, but couldn’t see the inside of the living room from the outside. She sighed and sat up, thi
Amèlie took her time to clean up Aaron in case he had been infected or exposed to any foreign substance before sewing him back up. She then injected him with antibiotics. Afterwards, Cole helped her to hold his body up while she wound a thick bandage around his stomach, he gave her a grateful nod. “Is he one of yours?” Amèlie asked. Cole nodded. She must have seen the worry in his eyes because she added, “He is going to be fine. He is very lucky. And whoever put that inside him, must want him alive because they put it outside his stomach sack, but nonetheless, it was still a dangerous move.”“I imagined they were desperate—” Cole said.“I guess we will find out now what Rufus has been up to, and what Angel wants,” Xavier said, gesturing to the items in Hallec’s possession. “So, when do we leave?” Jason suddenly asked, sounding impatient. Every eye in the room settled on him. “We have to wait for Angel to call us first,” Darrow said in a firm tone.“Guys, my brother is with that
“No!” Rufus yelled, Cole turned to him and smash the butt of his gun against his head, causing his forehead to bleed. “You fucking injected my woman with wolfbane, and dared to try and kill Aaron!” “You bastard! You killed my son!” Rufus cried loudly in evident anguish. It was clear he had lost his mind. “Oh, I intend to off all your fucking sons! You idiot!” “That’s a shame—” a voice sounded from the doorway. Cole looked in the direction and saw a man that looked like Rufus holding Opaline by the throat, and when Isabelle startled forward, he brandished a gun at her. Isabelle stopped. “If any of you animals move, I will drop this and we will all die...” the newcomer said, using the barrel of his gun to tap on a grenade he held against Opaline’s throat — the very type Ash used a few minutes before, everyone stepped back except Isabelle. “Hello, Cole Miller, your father was an arrogant asshole, but I still liked him, I was looking forward to meeting you. The way he talked about yo
“Oh, hell, no! Not on my watch!” Cole muttered and ran to the open space, ignoring the fact that he was left defenceless, trusting Jason and Ash to cover him. Isabelle gaped at him, watching as he opened fire on the guards by the doorway. Isabelle watched in frozen horror as two bullets hit him on the chest, and another on the shoulder, Cole only grunted hard but pressed forward. He didn’t stop until there were no more guards still left standing by the doorway. “Is this guy on drugs?!” one of the Weres asked with disquiet. “He is fucking insane!” another interjected. “Yes, he is,” Jason said with an admiration that made Isabelle smack him on the shoulder. “Sorry,” he said in a whispered plea, and then added, “but only the insanity part. I wouldn’t have him any other way!” He smirked and pushed away from safety to join in. Ash and his men joined him. A new wave of guards came out from the house and the other side of the woods, brandishing automatic guns at Cole and the rest o
Angel let go of the man and offered him the water. He snatched the bottle and gulped down the water, then he eyed Angel before he took the steak and gorged it down his throat. Isabelle passed another bottle of water to Angel and the other Were directed his gaze passed Angel to settle on her. The pain that cloud his eyes at the sight of her made her swallow. “They killed her... raped her to death...” he growled and then whimpered in obvious pain, curling up on the floor. Angel grabbed him by the shoulders and snarled “And if you don’t get your shit together, you will never be able to avenge her! Get a hold of yourself, Wolfe, or this will be it for you! I don’t fucking have all night!” Angel said, barring his teeth. The other wolf nodded and fought to contain his emotions. Angel then offered him a change of clothes, and he accepted it. Isabelle and the other ladies moved back to allow the rescued Weres to change, and then one of the Were asked, “Why does this human smell like
Cole signalled to Ash to wait with his team, beckoned Jason, mind linked with Isabelle to follow him then asked Xavier to mind link with Hallec, Darrow, Wulfrun, Opaline, and Tiana to come with them. The chosen Weres followed Angel closely, heading into the side woods to a secluded area about 5 minutes walk from the house, but it only took the Weres three. Angel brought them to a clearing in the woods and Cole could see a large iron grate-like shield, spanning about five meters of the grounds. Angel climbed atop it, looking down into the hole. Xavier went to join him, and Cole and Jason followed. Looking down through the iron bars, Cole could see an iron ladder leading down into a pit and the stench was killing. “Heavens! This is where they are?!” Xavier asked with gritted teeth, his anger was evident
The following morning Cole and Xavier asked to speak with Ash privately, and shortly after the other man peered into the study before entering. Xavier was standing by the window and Cole was by the liquor cabinet. “Thanks for honouring our call Ash—” Cole said and almost bit his tongue for the nonsense. It was quite obvious he wasn’t comfortable speaking with another man about his choice of a partner. Heck! If it weren’t for the impending mission he would have let whatever the two were playing at work itself out. What’s the point of living if you have to keep it safe all the time? A deep frown formed a groove in between his eyebrows. It was plain he would not be a perfect person to discuss the topic of ‘the birds and bees’ when the time comes. He evidently sucks at it. He doubted Isabelle would approve of him telling their kids to explore as much as they want. He wasn’t a parent yet and that scenario had him imaging an angel giving him a disapproving glare. He shook his head as if th
A gentle tap on the door woke Cole up and his eyes automatically went to the wall clock. He sighed. He had fallen asleep curled up with Isabelle in front of the fireplace on the duvet he had dragged from the bed. Lying there and chatting with her about their future felt right. It felt beautiful and now he just needed to go and secure that future for all of them. He disengaged from her and she turned her face to hold his gaze “Xavier needs me...” Cole said, lowering his head to plant a kiss on her lips. “Okay,” she said. Cole got up and quickly threw some clothes on before leaving the room when he got downstairs all the Weres were there including Ash. Cole sighed. He figured if Tiana hadn’t told Ash yet who she was he would have to be the one to do it or speak to Xavier about it. The last thing he needed was a surprised lover, freaking out at the wrong time and messing up their mission. He nodded a greeting to everyone and walked in the direction of Alexander’s office he had
She walked to the bathroom door that was at a corner of the opposite wall to the door she came in through, and slowly pushed it open, leaving it just slightly open. Cole was under the shower and his entire body was lathered and on display. Isabelle’s heart shook. He stood under the shower with his hands pressed to the wall as the water washed off the soap slowly on his body. Isabelle allowed her eyes to follow the flow down his deliciously sexy body. It reminded her of the time back at his cabin when he had washed her body and made her wash his too. “Touch me...” his raspy voice echoed in her head, and she leaned against the door frame watching him as her body flamed up for him. Cole heard the adjoining door open and knew she was coming before she got to the bathroom door. He could feel her gaze on him and could smell her excitement. The thought and the scent of her, mingled with her arousal affected his body in an unbelievable way. It was as if he could feel exactly what she was f
“Belle?” Xavier called, causing her to snap out of her musings. She realised everyone had sat down and she was the only one standing by the open French door like some social recluse. She flashed a smile that she hoped didn’t appear as a grimace and went to take the seat next to Xavier and Amèlie. The others started to eat, and low murmuring filled the room. They were all so aware of the male servants, standing by, and close to the side walls, evidently there to wait on them, but that didn’t make it less awkward. When she continued to sit still without reaching out to eat, Xavier gave her a gentle nudge with his leg, and she winced delicately, before reaching for her food. They were first served with an appetizer and Isabelle slowly tasted the chicken soup before she started to eat. They were on the main course dish when Cole entered the room. Two male servants quickly went to serve his appetizer, placing it by the head of the table. “I am sorry. I have been quite a terrible host.
With chest heaving, she breathed through parted lips returning his scrutiny. Cole took the seat beside her. Reaching for her hand, he held it firmly in his and then leaned into her and took her lips in a searing kiss. Isabelle gasped, confused by his actions, but he didn’t stop. The taste of whiskey on his tongue mixed with coffee coupled with the effect of his drugging kiss made her gradually lose herself in the kiss and it wasn’t long before she completely forgot why she was scared and where she was.When he finally let go for her to breathe, her eyes searched his smouldering ones before darting to the open window shield behind him. She found then that they were airborne, and the plane had stabilised. She swallowed. “I’m sorry, I haven’t—” she said. Cole raised his hand to brush a knuckle against her cheek. “Don’t do that… Don’t apologise to me. I'm sorry, I should have realised, and come sooner,” he replied and the tears she had been fighting to hold back spilt down her face. ‘
