Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Thirty-Six - The New Recruit
Calvin’s POVA look of distaste came over my Gamma’s face when I mentioned the leader of the Waning Moon pack.“I don’t much care for him,” she sniffed.“But you’ll show him respect if he turns up here, won’t you?”“Of course, Calvin. If he ever decides to join us and pay his dues.”“Now, now,” I said, wagging a finger at her.Alpha Joseph was notorious for owing money all over the five towns.While I waited for Ellie Cooper to show up, I prioritised the tasks I needed to get through. I was missing a financial adviser and some things would no longer wait.She looked troubled, yet defiant when Naomi showed her up to my office.“You sent for me, Alpha Calvin. I – I’ve taken the day off.”“Relax. I don’t bite. And that was considerate of you, Miss Cooper. I won’t forget.”“I’m doing it for her,” she blurted. “Oh Goddess, why do I always say the wrong thing around you?”“I reckon you’re one Omega who needs taking in hand, but that will have to wait.” She gulped and clutched her bag tightl

Calvin’s POVThe rehearsal went fine in the end, except that I caught Travis staring at Ellie. I’d advised her to bend over a lot and she was testing my libido as well. That, and the combination of short, frilly skirt and deep cleavage, meant we had a little sexpot on our hands.It was all falling into place.“On the evening itself you will be able to see and hear two females stripping each other prior to performing more explicit acts. You can choose to look away, but I guarantee the guys you are serving will make salacious comments. They may even ask your opinion. What will you do?”“I will pretend I’m into that kind of thing, Alpha.”“Good answer. Just don’t be too enthusiastic or they may even request you join in the scene.”She gasped. “Can they do that?”“It’s unlikely, but I may not be able to overrule their wish to see you perform.” The Omega swallowed. “Having second thoughts?”“No, Alpha. If it helps Tori … ”Yet she was chewing her lip in a way which told me she wasn’t quite

Tori’s POVI had a new owner and a different job, which I loathed. It seemed the Lycan had either lied to me or been misinformed, because I had yet to meet my master. Nobody had laid a finger on me – it was look, but don’t touch – and I was so glad that was the case when I went out on stage and worked my pole.Because of Calvin I wasn’t quite so self-conscious about revealing my body in public. A version of the jewelled bralette I was currently wearing was compulsory for all the strippers here at ‘Dazzling’ and I didn't even resent the fact that mine was more revealing than most.Each night it ended up on the floor while I hung upside down, flashing my boobs to the delight of the enthusiastic crowd. I didn’t earn a thing, and was told I should just be grateful for the roof over my head and that I was getting fed but not fucked.Stella could be such a cow.I knew the Alpha must be furious with me for deserting him, but what could I do? Escape was impossible from a windowless room. And

Calvin’s POVI didn’t know who I was more sorry for, Lucy or Ellie. The former was lying on her obviously sore back while Jasmine used a vibrator on her pussy and the kink virgin was being cornered by Rhodes.I was willing her to scream, but she seemed more interested in keeping her skirt down.Pretending I didn’t care was tough, especially given that it was the creep manhandling her. When her shriek finally emerged, Hollow stepped in, frustrating my intention to mind link security.“Come and sit beside me, girl.”“As a long standing member I have first dibs,” Tommy said, startling me. “Bend over, blue eyes. I think a spanking is in order. The kind that gets you wet.”“You heard him, Greta,” I said. “Use the trolley to anchor yourself.”She obeyed without a word, though her legs were trembling uncontrollably.He rose, a determined look on his face, and took a step towards the terrified Omega. Ellie must have thought I’d betrayed her. Then his phone pinged with a message and, cursing b

Tori’s POV“What the fuck do you think you’re doing?”I was so focused on Alpha Joseph that I didn’t hear the other man come into the room.“She belongs to me,” he whined. “Like all the other pack members I delivered, as promised.”I gasped. That probably explained the shortage of females at Waning Moon. Had I been destined to come here all along?“No, this one’s mine,” the newcomer said. “I’m bored with Sylvia.”I thought I recognised the voice. Was I going mad?“Anyways, I thought you were still up north.”“I have my spies. A little bird told me my package was about to be spoiled. She’s mine to ruin, not yours. Now, get out of my sight before I shift and rip off a limb.”It was very quiet once my other would-be exploiter had departed. I had to fill the silence, something I had grown to hate so much.“Why me?” was all I could manage.“You’ve become an obsession, Tori. Ever since I saw you in that training session. No, don’t turn around just yet. When you do, I want you naked, willing

Tori’s POVHe’s not the one in charge. I kept telling myself that in vain. Because while my so-called master was away, he was able to do as he pleased. The old threat about telling my father wouldn’t work, but I wasn’t so sure he couldn’t get to Fran.“Please tell me she’s okay, Alex,” I begged, as he fastened nipple clamps to my jutting breasts.My wrists were crossed and bound tightly together above my head. I kept looking up at the suspension ring and wondering if I could bring it down.“Tommy doesn’t believe in pain. He’s not one for restraints. I bet you’ve missed all that, babe.”He had to be joking, didn’t he?“What are you doing?”The condom packet he was brandishing in front of my eyes was making me queasy.“Trade you. Submit to me for news.”“No deal.”“You were willing once before. Until Phillips intervened. Clever of him that. I bet he fucked you every which way afterwards, didn’t he?”What?I didn’t know what to believe now or what was real and not real any more.“Alpha T

Calvin’s POVAt first I thought she was with pup. It turned out she’d become bloated after a recent illness. It didn’t make me feel any better about things. Because I’d heard of ‘Jackman’s’ and deplored everything it stood for.Finding her was all down to Alex Rhodes. I couldn’t pretend I was grateful to the guy who’d preyed on her once more. Having him followed had been a master stroke. I knew now who was behind it all but Tommy was in the wind.If it took me the rest of my life I would hunt him down.With the identification and capture of Jason Moore, nicknamed ‘Lycan’, thanks to some great detective work by my security team, I was a step closer to that, too. My scarcely used downstairs interrogation room was coming into its own.Though he’d taken her under Archer’s orders, it seemed he hadn’t done much other than watch. Maybe I could turn this one. He might be a useful soldier in the fight to stamp out this kind of thing.I knew he was into the comparatively sanitised kink we provi

Calvin’s POVI allowed the unwelcome news to sink in as I considered all the unexplained accidents recently, culminating in this, the ultimate tragedy.Lucy was such a looker, too.“Travis will be gutted,” I said. “They were due to do that scene next Saturday.” I winced, realising how that sounded. “Sorry, Oscar, ignore me. Have her family been informed?”“I assumed you would want to do it, Alpha.”“Yes, of course.”Tori went ashen-faced when I told her. “That could have been me. Oh no, you’ll think me selfish now. But I didn’t know her well, and … ” She tailed off, peering up at me through her fingers. “Why are you grinning?”“Because I just said a similar thing to Oscar, implying Travis would be disappointed not to do a scene with her at the weekend.”“Goddess, what are we like?”“Must be our human roots,” I said.“Speak for yourself. I’m a pure breed.”“Me, too,” I whispered. “That does it. I was thinking of inviting you back to work from ‘Remus’. Not now.”“You said ‘from’ ‘Remus’

Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Eighty-Three - Aftermath
Tori’s POVIt turned out I’d fallen asleep in the middle of making my statement to the WA investigator. That was a relief. I didn’t really want to share our special moment with anyone, not even my bestie and her mate-to-be.Calvin told him we’d continue this another time but I was determined to see it through and answered all his questions. I’d even impressed myself.Then we were on our way home, to the flat at ‘Remus’. I could hear the distant sounds of clubbers having their special kind of fun down below as we made our way upstairs via his private entrance.“I’ll tell them to close up early, shall I?” he asked, not even bothering to glance at his watch.“Don’t do that. I’m tired enough to sleep through anything.”“I noticed.”I told him about my weird dream and he seemed amused. Then he received a phonecall which put a dampener on everything. Isabel hadn’t made it through the night. I couldn’t believe it. What must he be feeling?“I’m coming with you to the hospital,” I said.“She’s
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Eighty-Two - Revenge
Tori’s POVI kept reassuring Ellie she had a decent figure. We even giggled about the nipple pasties and barely-there thong she shouldn’t have to reveal if she took it slowly as we rehearsed.“Travis is going to get the shock of his life,” she said.That answered that one. Not that I’d ever wondered about the contents of her lingerie drawer. As for her sometimes hard-to-believe superstitions, I rarely paid attention to them. My own thoughts were that the Moon Goddess either favoured you or didn’t, yet I couldn’t believe Selene would have a down on someone all their life.I felt my luck was about to change and was in a buoyant mood as I joked around with her backstage.Alpha Tobias had nodded to me but chosen not to approach. Perhaps that was something to do with my frosty glare. A little guilt courtesy of yours truly couldn’t harm before I told him I forgave him for his part in my near downfall. And Calvin’s.The mesh dress didn’t make me self-conscious in any way given that I was goi
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Eighty-One - Frustrations
Calvin’s POVI still couldn’t believe Rhodes had achieved bail. Then I realised in all the confusion nobody had actually accused him of being behind the destruction of Black Gold. My bad. I’d been more concerned with Tori’s welfare and Issy’s condition.Rose had done a disappearing act after giving her statement. I was still hopeful of finding her or that she would make her way to us. I knew Tori was fretting about it.To say I was glad she wouldn’t be stripping – a one night only trial venture we’d persuaded Toby to stage in an attempt to lure him out of hiding – was an understatement. From now on I wanted my Luna under wraps and all to myself.I thought she was going to have to step in last minute when our proposed lookalike caught a bug. As we were having a heated debate the night before, Ellie came up to us.“Can I have a word, please, Alpha?”I froze, my thoughts going instantly to my sister.“Please tell me she hasn’t deteriorated.”“Isabel’s improving day by day.”“Then what is
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Eighty - Repercussions
Tori’s POVI couldn’t believe ex Alpha Joseph hadn’t grasped that fact already. What exactly had Calvin said to him down at ‘WAX’? Something about me switching packs and nothing more? I have to admit I was out of it at the time, surviving on instinct and adrenaline alone.Did he have selective memory, or was it simply because the one who held a weapon could reinvent the world his way?Maybe it was his final attempt to make a power play given all that he had lost. Security certainly didn’t have him on a blacklist as he wasn’t deemed to be a threat.For similar reasons I was still wary of Alpha Tobias, Jason less so.But neither of them were about to shame me in public.Not if I could help it!Yet the former leader of Waning Moon held all the aces.We must tighten security if nothing else. At least this may convince Ellie finally to switch packs. I’d said to her she ought not to be around Lance too often but that didn’t seem to work.What must she think of me now?I found out in the nex
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Seventy-Nine - Another Crisis
Calvin’s POVI hadn’t seen fit to tell Tori we would be in sole charge of the club on this occasion. There was no way Naomi was in any state to open up and my security guys had never doubled as Doms. I’d considered remaining closed for the night and then I thought, what the hell. We needed to loosen up, not necessarily performing a scene, but just keeping a watchful eye on things.I’d told her we wouldn’t be going downstairs but was hoping she would consent.I doubted I would see Moore for a day or two. Oscar and Travis were excused though would have obeyed my order had I seen fit to issue one. So this would be a night for the members and occasional visitors. Plus, I wanted to see once and for all if my decision to surrender control was a wise one. Maybe my mate and I needed this, to let off some steam now and again.Of course we could always do that anyway. I wouldn’t be barred from my own club. I knew I needed to sound her out about this, too.First things first.We went in the back
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Seventy-Eight - Closer To A Full Confession
Tori’s POVI was chewing my lip now, hard enough to draw blood. Calvin discouraged me with a comment before continuing, “Hit me with it.”“I need to be bait again. Before our mating ceremony. That should give your sister time to recover.”“I hope so,” Guy said. I’d forgotten he was there, he was so quiet. And those eyes were the closest to amber I’d ever seen.“Me too.” I felt shy suddenly, wondering if he was the kind to judge me for my past.His next words went some way to reassuring me. “You are so brave and unselfish, Victoria.”“Thanks,” I said. “But I’m a weakling really. I just punch above my weight occasionally.”“Don’t believe her,” Calvin told him. “She’s in denial about her own qualities but we’re working on it. Aren’t we, princess?”I wasn’t sure how to take that so I shoved him, playfully, hurting my wrist. I’d forgotten how rock solid he was. I made a joke of it.“Have you been working out?”“Some,” he admitted.“On your own, I hope?”“I’m the faithful kind. I haven’t be
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Seventy-Seven - One Last Attempt
Tori’s POV The smell of burning roused me. Then I saw Fran. She was beside herself with rage yet crying, too. “What are you doing here?” I murmured, rubbing the sleep from my eyes. “Finishing what he started. Except I’m useless at it.” “Alex? You’re better than him.” “No, I’m not. Because I was contemplating doing what he arranged for someone else to do. You might say he saved me from myself. Mom knew I was bad. She always said … Oh, never mind. I’d better go. I’m not wanted here.” “Don’t be hasty,” I said. “Let’s talk.” “What is there to say?” “You have Naomi now. And me, for what it’s worth. I never stopped thinking about you all the time you were missing. I don’t blame you for any of it. Truly.” “Really? And what about this?” Her gesture took in the singed furniture and blackened carpet. It was strange how the sprinkler system had malfunctioned. Correction, it was belated. “I’ll say I did it,” I panted, climbing out of bed and trying not to think about how much I resemble
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Seventy-Six - Never Letting You Go
Calvin’s POVShe was back where she belonged, in my arms – in my bed. I treated her with reverence, taking note of how Guy was with Issy, and soon enough Bethany reached out to Thaddeus and my mate was ready to be – well, mated.At the ripe old age of twenty-eight it was about time I settled down. And it was all thanks to the efforts of Jason Moore who helped us when we needed it most. Without him, who knew where Tori would have ended up.I wanted to take her somewhere romantic after the ceremony, maybe to the forest where we’d go for that run after all. Yet I had to be practical. My sister’s condition remained serious and I was reluctant to be away from Still Water for long. Though ‘Remus’ could be run remotely and participation was not something I was interested in unless it was with my Luna, in private.We had a whole lifetime to spend together and needed to start on the right footing. Better late than not doing so at all!I still needed to ask her about if I’d pushed her too far s
Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Seventy-Five - Seizing My Chance
Tori’s POVThere was no way I was ever going to stay with Alex, though I managed to convince him of that while pretending I had my time of the month. That wouldn’t have stopped him once, but his mind was full of triumph initially - until I told him about the ticking time bomb inside his head.I really doubted that Calvin and Moore had the remote but managed to convince him otherwise.Then it was a matter of counting the hours until the doctor arrived.Alex had gone for a lie down leaving George watching me. I knew I had to be wary of him. Yet after a while I couldn’t resist.“Why do you bother? Following him, I mean. You could do so much better.”“Convince me,” he said.“How?”“Make it worth my while and you and I will go on a little trip.”“Not when I’m bleeding.”“A glimpse of your tits and I’m all yours.”Lucky us.Play nice, Bethany. He may be our ticket out of here.Yet I was sick of being preyed upon by these lustful shifters. And the mate bond – I’d been marked, for love of the
