I wasn’t stupid enough to think I could put this off forever, no matter how much I wished that I could. Dominic and Mason must have sensed my reluctance because they kept a firm grip on me as they led me towards the council members who were waiting for us in the dining room.

Once we entered the room most of my nerves were erased. Even though I knew that the men in front of me had some kind of power over us, I couldn’t bring myself to be afraid of four decrepit old men. Not one of them looked as though they could stand up without assistance let alone put up any kind of fight against an Alpha like me.

“We’re really sorry to keep you waiting, we had a little trouble at our border,” Mason said as he held out his hand for the closest council member to shake. Somewhere between leaving the hallway and stepping into the dining room, Mason has seamlessly transformed himself into the perfect host. It was remarkable

  • Once Upon a Forbidden Mate   Chapter 49 - Brianna

    Dominic followed behind us while Mason carried me up to our room. I could feel how turned on both of them were through our bond but it was nothing compared to my own arousal. After the stress and excitement of what happened earlier and the irritation that the council members caused, all I wanted was to feel both of my mates inside of me.Mason must have been able to pick up on some of my desire through our bond because he flung open the bedroom door with so much force that I heard the wood crack as the knob bounced off the wall behind it. The noise was loud enough to make me jump but it didn’t seem to phase Mason at all, he continued walking till he reached the end of the bed before laying me down and covering my body with his own.“My wolf has been craving you all day. He enjoyed the little chase earlier but without capturing our target, it just seems so unfulfilling. I think we both need to work off some of that tension.&

  • Once Upon a Forbidden Mate   Chapter 50 - Mason

    Having to act as host while my guests judged and insulted me constantly was the most humiliating thing I have ever had to go through. I knew that they were doing it on purpose to make me lose my temper but that didn’t mean that I was able to stop it from bothering me.Dominic, Brianna, and Rowan did what they could to stop the council members from constantly following me around. For the most part, it seemed to be working even though the council members didn’t make that easy for them. There were only a few members of the council within my pack’s territory and yet it felt as though they were everywhere I looked, it was beyond frustrating.I wished that I could forcibly throw every last one of them out of my pack, but that wouldn’t solve anything. They would only come back with more backup and then they would use my outburst as justification to kill me and destroy my pack. That was the only thing keeping me going a

  • Once Upon a Forbidden Mate   Chapter 51 - Dominic

    We all had our parts to play in this ridiculous plan that Mason had concocted but my part was going to be the hardest of all. That was because my part of the plan involved lying to at least one member of the council, all of whom were Alphas.It was going to be difficult for me to pull something like this off but then again that was why I had been given this role. I was the only person who had an incentive to get Mason out of the way and I was also the person they would least suspect of trying to lie to them. That was mainly because they saw me as being so weak compared to them that they expected me to be intimidated by them. They were wrong but I was prepared to play along with their assumptions if it helped our cause.I slipped into one of the bathrooms on the ground floor and locked the door behind me. I sat down on the closed toilet seat and rested my head in my hands, I had to find some way of bringing my heart rate down or they we

  • Once Upon a Forbidden Mate   Chapter 52 - Mason

    I don’t know how Dominic could stay so calm while our mate was in the hands of our enemies. I knew that he was used to hiding his emotions from others. It was just one of the skills he had picked up while working for the council alongside his parents but he was much better at this than I gave him credit for.There was barely any sign of stress on his face as he listened to the information that the council members wanted to share with him. Meanwhile, I felt as though I was barely holding onto my anger. My wolf was begging me to let him take over so that he could rip every single one of them apart and I was having trouble thinking of any reason good enough to deny his request.Nobody had dared to declare war on the council before because they feared what would happen to their pack if they did. But our pack was strong and we had many strong fighters, what would the council do if we decided to reject their authority? Could they really use

  • Once Upon a Forbidden Mate   Chapter 53 - Dominic

    It didn’t escape my notice how even though so much had changed in the last few days, I was basically right back to where I had started. Standing in another dark alleyway looking for clues so that I could trace someone’s movements.Franklin had joined us shortly after we left our pack’s territory and he was now helping us in our search. He had left the pack shortly after the council had turned up but he didn’t go too far away. He had been dealing with the council a lot longer than I had and he knew we would be needing his help before long.He was even less happy about going along with the council’s orders than I was, although even he admitted that we didn’t have any other viable options. With the pack almost completely under their control and the potential for them getting backup from some of the nearby packs, it wasn’t going to be possible for us to overpower them without risking Brianna’

  • Once Upon a Forbidden Mate   Chapter 54 - Brianna

    Getting caught red-handed by the council’s assistant was embarrassing enough but having them drag me into a room and hold me prisoner while both my mates watched was next level. I was meant to be a strong female Alpha and everything about today was making me feel more like an Omega.I had to watch helplessly while my mates were sent away on a dangerous mission and then once they were gone I was brought over to the table and pushed into a seat. There was something about the way the council members were looking at me as I adjusted myself within the seat that told me things were only going to get worse from there. I had to bite my lower lip to stop myself from making any sarcastic remarks while I watched them shuffling their paperwork in front of me.“You thought you were so clever when you were making plans with your weak human mate and your broken Alpha, didn’t you?” One of the council member’s assistants g

  • Once Upon a Forbidden Mate   Chapter 55 - Mason

    I was strangely calm as ex-Alpha Kennedy’s men dragged me through the forest towards their lair. That was because I knew that despite all of his posturing, he couldn’t kill Dominic and me without also killing or seriously harming his own daughter. Even he wasn’t crazy enough to do that. So, he must have had some other plan for us.I watched with interest as we entered the makeshift camp where Alpha Kennedy was now staying. We moved too quickly for me to see everything but from what I had seen, I was pretty sure that his mate and his son weren’t there. There were only a handful of tents and a few boxes of what I assumed to be supplies. There couldn’t have been more than a dozen people left in the camp and most of them were the mates and children of the warriors who had intercepted us.From the intelligence that the council had shared with us, this was only a small fraction of the people who had left to join

  • Once Upon a Forbidden Mate   Chapter 56 - Brianna

    There was something wrong with my mates, I had been getting feelings of stress coming from both of them all afternoon and it only seemed to be getting worse as time passed by. It was an extra distraction that I really didn’t need when I was already struggling to trace their location using our bond.Adding to all of that, the man who had rescued me from the council seemed determined to share his life story with me. It sounded as though Raymond had been through quite a lot at the hands of the council but there was a time for sharing such stories and this wasn’t it. There had been more than one occasion in the last few hours where I had to bite my tongue so I wouldn’t tell him to shut the fuck up.“Do you have a plan?” Raymond asked as he took hold of my shoulder, halting my progress.“Of course I have a plan,” I growled. My tone wasn’t great but considering my curren

  • Once Upon a Forbidden Mate   Chapter 59 - Brianna

    I waited for Raymond and his ex-mate to gather what they needed and leave before letting a low growl leave my throat. I couldn’t understand why everyone around me couldn’t comprehend why I didn’t want the worry of what the council would do next at the back of my mind throughout my heat.This would be my first real heat since I was a teenager and there was a good chance I would get pregnant after it. The last thing I needed was to go back to my pack and get into a fight with the council while potentially being pregnant.“There is no need for that sunshine, we will take care of you.”Dominic and Mason closed in on me from either side and started kissing me on my neck and shoulder. It felt as though their hands were all over me and the sensation of their touch and their lips against my skin was enough to dampen the fire on my skin and ignite one much deeper inside of me. As much as I w

    The witch’s apartment was packed with so many plants and flowers that the air was thick with pollen and moisture. It was so intense that I made it difficult to breathe too deeply, and the tension between Raymond and his ex-mate didn’t help with that.She had allowed us into her home but was still doing everything in her power to make sure we were all aware of how unwelcome we were there. She had told us to stand at one end of the room while putting herself at the other end of it with her hands on her hips. Even though her apartment was small, there was still enough space between them that it would be difficult for Raymond to sneak in close enough to touch her.“I am waiting,” She growled.“I’m so sorry sweetheart. I should have never rejected you but that is something I can easily rectify. I Raymond ….”The woman held her hand out to stop h

  • Once Upon a Forbidden Mate   Chapter 57 - Dominic

    Brianna had pulled Mason and me to one side so that she could take us through her plan. She thought she was being clever but I thought her impending heat was frying her brain because her plan made absolutely no sense. She wanted us to use her heat as a way of making the council members incriminate themselves in a way that she could use against them.It was never going to work. The council were too cautious to slip up in such a way and even if they weren’t, her plan was flawed. Blackmailing someone who was trying to blackmail you was precarious at the best of times, but doing it when your mind was clouded by lust was suicide.“We need to think of another plan, one that doesn’t put you in so much danger,” I replied.Brianna whimpered, causing Mason to shuffle a little closer to her and wrap his arms tightly around her. I hadn’t meant my voice to sound so harsh but Mason and I weren&rs
