Of Beasts and Heartbreak Chapter Thirty - The Trap
Calvin’s POVI hadn’t wanted Tori to leave but was too proud to admit that. Fuck, I’d have had her in my bed – my own rules be damned! – if I had my selfish way. I’m too stubborn for my own good.My thoughts turned to the submissives and our productive discussion regarding them. Naomi was going to love this. I planned to ask for her help regarding an enticing scene to welcome our new VIP members, an advance showing, as it was going to involve two subs being chastised for fooling around while awaiting their lovers.She was good at devising these kind of ‘plays’ and I was beginning to understand why. Tori had asked why we didn’t have dominatrices and I just couldn’t allow it, but there was no reason we couldn’t showcase gay tops and bottoms, if there was sufficient demand for that kind of thing, starting with females and maybe moving on to males.It could take place in a separate club or we could expand. I sighed. Maybe I was being too prejudiced. Some shifters might want to be controll

Tori’s POV I thought the Alpha was just joking but, as soon as we were through the office door, he pounced, pinning me against it. “Are you okay?” he whispered, nuzzling my neck. He was careful to avoid the marking place, but found my sweet spot several times. “Define ‘okay’, boss.” “Up for it,” he said, making me squeal. I really wanted to hit him. “Are you going to lock the door, Alpha?” “No way.” “But what if someone comes?” Realising what I’d said I felt my cheeks heat up. “Then you’ll be under my desk rather than on top of it, Miss Culpepper,” he told me. “There isn’t enough room,” I panted, looking at the laptop and Newton’s cradle with its magnetic balls. “Clear it,” he ordered. “You have five minutes, tops.” I didn’t move. “Make me,” I said. “Don’t be a brat. I can always take you over my knee and spank you.” I’m not sure why, but I felt the tears begin to form. “Hey,” he said, tilting my chin. “Talk to me.” “It’s Els,” I blurted, acknowledging the truth at las

Tori’s POVI woke up alone to a familiar scent. Disorientated, I grabbed the duvet and sniffed to be absolutely sure. Then I panicked. It was a no-no to be here in Alpha Calvin’s bed. Had I snuck in once he went into the bathroom?As I was about to head over to the couch a hazy memory surfaced. I looked down at the babydoll and my jaw went slack.Had all that really happened? And where was he now, the boss who was contradicting himself, breaking his own rules?Should I join him in the shower?The en suite was empty. I couldn’t decide if I was relieved or disappointed.Wandering to the closet I saw I had several dresses to choose from, which I supposed was his way of showing his appreciation for my additional, otherwise unpaid, services. Selecting a cream one with a scalloped neck, I laid it on the couch while I went in search of underwear. That was scarcer, so I had to make do with some racy lingerie not intended to be worn to the office, unless it were for the purpose of role play.T

Calvin’s POVSo far, my day was going well. Tori had some of her sparkle back. I knew I’d done right to allow her friend and flatmate to see her. I was less sure about the wisdom of Miss Cooper returning to ‘Remus’ one evening, but I judged it might prove enlightening.My mind was opening up to all sorts of possibilities. I realised I’d been too gender orientated in terms of the club. If we were to expand or open a second establishment, maybe she-wolves would become paying members in future. Though I still wasn’t comfortable with the idea of having female dominants, or Dommes.That wasn’t an image I wanted to be associated with ‘Remus’.Maybe I could call the other club ‘Foxy’ or ‘Reynard’. When I mentioned it to Tori, straight away she suggested ‘Vixens’.I liked the sound of that.Things were taking shape in a way I never thought they would prior to her joining us.I was staring at the laptop when Tori spoke.“This role play, it’s a rehearsal for one of our planned theme nights, cor

Tori’s POV I glanced at Travis but he was giving nothing away. Dominant mode, like moodier-than-ever Oscar. Instead of feeling ashamed I told myself I should feel proud and pleased about something which some she-wolves outside the scene took for granted. Mixed training without clothes was common these days. And, for those who still shifted, getting over unnecessary modesty was essential as there wasn’t always someone waiting around with a robe. “Glad you could make it, you slut.” I jerked in surprise. Though I knew Sharon only slightly I didn’t think I’d ever done her a disservice. Then I realised: the play had begun. “It’s all a misunderstanding.” She held up some incriminating photos. “What about these?” “It wasn’t me.” “Prove it.” “How?” “We’ll come to that. This is my brother.” She pointed to Oscar. “He’s my independent witness.” “I don’t understand.” “Did you bring the money?” “No, because I’m innocent.” “Hardly, doll,” Travis said. “My husband told me everything.

Calvin’s POVWhen Tori was a no-show I didn’t give much thought to it initially. Maybe she was acting up because she wanted me to punish her. If so, I would be more than happy to oblige.Susan stepped into the supervisory role with ease, even though it was relatively new to her. Before that we’d sometimes asked Naomi to sit in, but that had obviously taken its toll.This whole scene was a tester for the so-called big VIP night. I couldn’t wait to see if Rhodes aka West would have the balls to turn up. He was bound to realise we would encounter each other at some point. I always took care of our special guests, some of whom were long standing members. I liked to vary the mix and get them talking.I’d asked for something especially hot involving two subs. The Doms present today would be required to provide suggestions to enhance the performance, much as the chosen ones would make requests on the night. It wasn’t my thing but I knew it would be popular owing to an unofficial sounding out

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

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
