CLAIRE FISCHER

MY LEGS TREMBLED with fear as we marched along the small dirt path. The night was dark and the woods were even darker, but these strange people seemed to be one with the surroundings, like they had lived here all their lives. And maybe they had.

Had I stumbled into the pack of a secret pack? I asked myself. I closed my eyes, trying to remember my geography classes, and wishing I had paid more attention as I tried to figure out where I was. There was no supposed to be a pack nearby… my foot caught on a shrub and I stumbled forward, unable to catch myself as I fell into the dirt.

“Get up!” the man holding the end of my rope snarled. The group stopped moving as they looked back. “Get up!” the man tugged on the rope again. I tried to stand up, but I was weak. I had not eaten anything in almost two days. They parted as the man I took to be their leader approached me. His eyes glinted bright red in the darkness as he looked down at me.

“What is going on?” he asked. His voice

    ALEKANDER VON SINCLAIR“WHAT ARE YOU planning to do with her?” Joram asked Alex as he watched the guard drag the prisoner girl away.“I don’t have to explain myself to you,” Alex replied.“she should be taken to the dungeon,” Joram argued as they walked to a hall beside the mansion. “not your chambers.”Alex scoffed. “I don’t expect you to be the one judging me, brother.”“I am not,” Joram sighed. “But a few hours ago, your Lucia called, and you just told me that you were not interested in that tonight,” he pushed and held the door open. “And after this meeting, you are going to -”Alex stopped abruptly and looked at Joram. “You are judging, brother.” He said coolly. “Do you want her for yourself?” he cocked his head. “Is that what this is all about? You want her, and you do not want to share.”Joram's face twisted in disgust. “Gross.” He rubbed his eyes. “I do not want to fuck your prisoner. She is yours to do as you wish.”There was a vague smile on Alex's face as he turned away. “W

    ALEXANDER VON SINCLAIRALEX WAS BOILING as he stormed out of the Senate hall and walked down the street. The pack – no, the clan, was deathly silent. There was even no buzzing of night bugs or insects. As Alek went towards the pack mansion, he cooled down a bit, and he became a bit more logical. He knew he was overreacting, but his ego would not let him admit it to himself.He knew he did not have much right coming here like a bull in a china shop, smashing anything in his path as he took over the clan that he had left unattended to in over half a century.“I am beginning to sound like my brother,” he muttered as he pushed the door open. “I have been spending too much time with him.” He saw Nonna coming down the stairs slowly. He walked up to her and tried to help her down.“What have you done, child?” She asked, looking at his bloodied hand. “Don’t worry about it, Nonna.” He said, trying to wipe the blood with a pocket napkin.“It is Marshall, is it not?” she asked. “I knew that one’

    CLAIRE FISCHERI DID NOT know who this Lucia was, but I was grateful for her arrival. She had just saved me from the unspeakable things Alec was going to do to me. My captor Alec slowly released me. I immediately picked up my clothes and pressed them to my body.Alek turned and looked at his brother. “How did she know we were back?” He asked in a hushed whisper.Joram shrugged. His eyes swept across the room and settled on me. I immediately lowered my gaze. Even though Joram looked a tad calmer and less intimidating than his brother, I knew that looks could be deceiving, and the last thing I wanted to do was to attract his attention.“We should talk,” Joram said in a strong voice to his brother, who walked away and grabbed a shirt from the bed, shrugging it on.“I don’t have anything to say to you,” Alex replied. He started to walk out, then he stopped, looked at me, and said, “We are not done.” A chill shiver ran down my spine.Joram looked at me for a few seconds, then he sighed and

    ALEKSANDER VON SINCLAIRHE CURSED UNDER his breath as he shrugged on his shirt and walked out of the room. He wanted to say something to the prisoner girl, but he clenched his jaw and stalked out. He heard his brother following him closely.“Where is she?” he asked.“the grand foyer,” Joram said in a bland voice.Joram knew his brother had something to say, but he was keeping it in. When they were getting to the stairs, the silence became too heavy and profound for Alek, so he said, “Say it.” He stopped and turned, “That thing in your mind. Say it.”“What you are about to do to that girl -” Joram said.Alek scoffed and started to walk away, but Joram held his arm. “What you were about to do to that girl…” he repeated.“She is my prisoner,” Alek snarled. “And I will do whatever I want with her.” He tried to snatch his arm away, but he couldn’t.“What you should do… is to interrogate her so we know where she comes from,” Joram snapped. “Not… rip her clothes and try to force your way… Th

    CLAIRE FISCHERI WOKE UP with a startle. I was lost for a few seconds, not sure of where I was until the whole event of last night came to me – Alex, the abduction… and what almost followed. I sat up slowly, stretching out my stiff back; I had slept in an awkward position on the floor. I looked around the room. I was alone, so that meant he had not come back last night. He and Lucia had spent the night together, satisfying each other’s desires.Better her than me, I said to myself, gathering myself from the floor.I went to the adjoining room where the old woman had washed me yesterday. I had not had the liberty to appreciate the elegance of the room and bathroom. I ran my hand across the smooth tiles and the smooth, wide basin. I turned on the tap, and warm water flowed out silently. I stepped under the shower, enjoying the feeling of warm water washing down my skin.When was the last time I had had a proper shower?Not that brash washing that the women had given me yesterday.I don’

    CLAIRE FISCHERTHE WHOLE MEETING I was stunned at Aleks's arrival. I was even more shocked when Aleks sat down and said, "Speak on, Clam." He leaned back, folded his arms, and kept his eyes fixed on me. "I want to hear more."I swallowed again, not knowing where to start."You were asking her something," Alex said to Jamie as if he sensed I was lost."Ah, yes," Jamie nodded. He cleared his throat and turned to me. "What is your surname, and what pack did you come from?"I looked around, uncertainly. I did not want to tell them the pack I came from. They could be an enemy, that would worsen my fate, and I could not tell me my surname because they could figure everything out and connect the dots. I shook my head and said, "I do not remember." I looked at Jamie. "There was an accident. I hit my head...""So you lost your memory?" He raised his eyebrows. He clearly did not believe me."I lost my memory," I nodded.Jamie scoffed. "You said there was an accident and you hit your head," he s

    ALEKSANDER VON SINCLAIRHE HAD PATRONIZED them long enough. And his patience had been drawing thinner since he joined the meeting.He had had a very uneventful night even though he had spent it with Lucia. His member had simply fallen and refused to rise again. His mind was with the prisoner in his chambers, not the cougar Lucia, who was with him in a guest room. He had played it off and pushed her aside, telling her that he was no longer in the mood. She pouted all night and even attempted to stroke him hard during the night so she could ride him while he slept, but to no avail.He pretended to be asleep as she tossed and turned on the bed beside him in frustration. A side of him felt bad for her; after all, it was not her fault. But another side of him did not even want her to be here.He finally slept for a few hours, but he was awake again very early. She was gone. He heaved a sigh of relief and got out of bed. He went to his chambers, eager to touch the prisoner girl again, but h

    CLAIRE FISCHERI WAS TOO stunned to move for the next few minutes after Alex stormed out of the hall. I turned and looked at Joram. He was also as stunned as I was.The men of the senate were pale-faced, sitting on their seats without any words too. The hall was deathly silent."You heard my brother," Joram finally said. He turned to a guard neaby. "Take her back to the mansion."A guard stepped into the hall and walked up to me. He took me by the arm and led me out. I looked at Jamie as I walked out. The anger that was absent in his face was very present in the depth of his eyes. I could tell that he was going to make my life living in this pack very hard.As we went through the street of the pack, I could tell that things were off. This was a community of werewolves, but it did not feel like a pack. There was hardly any bond. Maybe because there was no alpha, as I could not call Alek an alpha, he was more of a dictator and controller.I saw some little children playing in the grass,

    ALEKSANDER VON SINCLAIRHIS BEAST PURRED in contentment, feeling the warmth of Claire pressed against his side. With the way she gave herself to him, he was sure she had missed him too.He sighed and pulled her closer. She snuggled into his embrace. He could already feel the effects of the curse wear off. The burning itchiness that he felt in his skin during his time apart from her had started to recede.Her fingers were making a circular motion on the back of his hands as they lay there in the remains of sexual ecstasy."Are you alright?" He muttered into her hair.She sighed and nodded. "Are you sure?" He asked. "You expect you to feel some soreness here..." he slipped his hand between her thighs where it was hot and moist.She shook her head, saying, "I can feel you."He chuckled. His cock had started to fill with blood again, and he was slightly poking her. "I can't control it... not entirely anyway." He replied."What was not what I was talking about," she replied.

    CLAIRE FISCHEROur kiss started off very slowly. It was nothing but a brush of lips against lips as if we were testing the waters. My heart fluttered at the soft caress and my lips parted slightly in invitation. I could feel the heat radiating off Aleksander's body as he hovered over me, his larger frame caging me in deliciously.Then the kiss became more urgent. Aleksander's mouth slanted over mine with increasing pressure, tongue delving past my parted lips to tangle with mine. I moaned into his mouth, hands coming up to clutch at his shoulders. He tasted like coffee.I arched up into him, breasts pressing against the hard planes of his chest as I tried to get closer, to feel more of him. Aleksander groaned at the contact and pressed me against the wall.When we finally pulled apart, I was panting."Wow," I breathed out. "I've never been kissed like that."Aleksander smiled, looking thoroughly pleased with himself. "We're not done."His large hands gripped my hips as he pulled my cu

I had not heard anything from Alek in the past week, and it was adding to the occasional wave of dizziness that I experienced.As I got out of bed, I planned on checking up on Elizabeth. The last I went to see her, she had been feeling considerably better. I washed up and went downstairs for breakfast. As usual, Joram was already at the table, flipping through a large newspaper."Coffee?" He asked without looking up at me as I approached."Yes, please," I said.He gestured with his hand and a servant came forward to pour me a cup. I added milk and sugar as I liked it. "We really have to stop using servants," I leaned forward and said to him. "We are all equal here, no omegas or slaves.""That is up to you to abolish," He raised an eyebrow at me."Well, I

    LOGAN MILLERLOGAN RESISTED THE urge to shift and attack them. They looked small. He knew he could take them on his own, but he wanted to be sure of what this was all about, so he kept quiet and looked around to make sure he was alone. Then he slowly followed them. He did not shift because the cracking and morphing bones would definitely catch their attention. The wind was blowing in his direction, taking the scent away from him. He watched his step, taking care to keep a wide distance between them. After a few minutes, they got to the border of the pack; then one of them shifted back to into human. Logan squinted to see better. He did not recognize the man... but he recognized who they met.Ruth was waiting under a large oak tree. She handed a robe to the man and watched as he put it on.He crept as close as he could without arousing suspicion. He heard them talking in low tones."We were not sure you would be here," The rogue said. He was a large man, and Logan knew he was their l

    LOGAN MILLERLOGAN WAITED OUT his time throughout the day. He pretended to be interested in what Fiona or Ruth indulged him with, but he knew better. He knew there was a deeper secret hiding behind the smiles of Ruth and Fiona, and even his best friend was in on it."Did you hear what I said?" Fiona asked."Wha?" Logan shook his head. "I was distracted." He placed his hand over hers. "What did you say?"She pouted for a few seconds, then she said, "I was saying that we should host an event. A large event. We will invite every pack around after all, we are the biggest pack in this city.""You... want us to host a party to show that we are the biggest pack in the state?" Logan frowned."Yes..." she giggled and clapped her hands."We have more pressing issues than hosting a party -" Logan muttered, shaking his head."But it is not a bad idea," Bruce said, coming into the sitting room with two glass cups. He handed one to Logan. "It will have many advantages... with the involvement of oth

    ALEKSANDER VON SINCLAIRHE PULLED TO a stop in front of the state building. As he got out, he looked around. The building was already busy, and it was not even 9 a.m. yet.He snorted and went inside. He had been here multiple times before. Being a prominent billionaire in the city meant he was often in lunch and dinner parties with other prominent people of the city - sometimes such parties included the Mayor or Governor.He took the elevator up to the suite that held the office. A small, petite woman sat at a desk outside. When she looked up and saw Alek, she immediately stood up and hurried out of her desk. "You can't be here, sir," She stammered. "How did you get past the guards." She held her hand in front of her like she could stop him."Is he in?" Alek asked."Uh, Y-yes... but-""That is all I need to hear," Alek muttered as walked past her like she didn't exist."Sir, you don't have an appointment-"Alek pushed the door open, noting that he had broken the lock. He stopped midst

"What is it?""There was another attack last night," Bruce repeated.Logan jumped to his feet. "What did they take?""Not much," Bruce said. "To be honest, there was not much to be taken.""What is that look on your face?" Logan asked, frowning as he went to the basin to wash his face with cold water to wake himself up."The rogues attacked 2 men last night," Bruce muttered.Logan stiffened and turned. "They attacked and hurt two of our men?"Bruce nodded. "One of them is badly injured."Logan sprinkled water on his face and dried it with a napkin. "I had taken the rogues to be mere thieves. I never thought they would take it this far..." he wrapped a shawl around his neck and hurried out of his office. "Have you heard?" Fiona asked as soon as he walked into the sitting room.

"I just pulled away from one of the best heads in my life... and you know that is saying something."They went to a darker, more secluded corner of the club and sat down."What is this about?" Esteavo asked. His skin was white and translucent in the darkness. "After all these years, I thought you had given up on searching for anything about the curse.""I had," Alek nodded. "And now you said it has stopped?""Not entirely," Alek said. "I want to know if you know where any highly powerful witch might be. I need some answers."Esteavo snorted and stood up. "You are here to waste my time.""I met a girl," Alek said.Esteavo frowned. "What does that have to do with anything?""She doesn't know it, but when I'm with her, the curse stops... or slows down considerably." Alek sighed."You suspect she is a witch?" Esteavo asked.Alek shrugged. "I don't know what to think," He rubbed his face. "But I know that a real witch w

    ALEKSANDER VON SINCLAIRALEK WAS FRUSTRATED as he pulled into the parking lot of his apartment. He had tried to call the governor's office, but his calls were being redirected; he was on his last nerve already and was unable to look at the files that Harris had sent to him about the warehouse robbery.He got into the house and poured himself a glass of whiskey, sipping it as he pulled off his tie and shirt. He examined his body in the full-length mirror on the wall, looking at the tattoos. In another circumstance, he would have loved them. They were beautiful. He scoffed and walked to the couch with his drink in hand. He sat down heavily on the couch and opened his laptop. There was always a constant inflow of emails that his personal assistant and secretary could not keep up with.He spent the next hours blandly reading the emails. Then he got up and pulled a shirt over his head; a few months ago, he would have called some numbers in his phone, and the girls would have come flocking
