Just one chapter today. I will be back on track this week with more chapters. So Gabe and Sitx have met, and the body? My goodness, who could have killed Ruby's boyfriend?
STIXRuby sat sobbing in my arms after I told her about stumbling across Cameron's body. My shirt was soaked from her tears.I knew she liked him, but I had underestimated just how much. I honestly thought he was just the flavor of the month.“Okay calm down Ruby,” Gently I try to console her and urge her to relax. It had been hours since she heard the news and hours of her constant crying. At this point, her sobs had become annoying, and she was just looking for attention.Ruby lifts her head, her red lipstick smeared across her cheek and the charcoal eyeliner was smudged under her eyes. “Why though, that’s what I don’t get. Why? We were going to be mated.” She sobs again, and more tears stream down her face.“I don’t know Ruby,” I say thinking about the bloodied body with claw marks that ripped open the stomach and his chest that had been caved in and the heart removed.I shudder at the image that is ingrained into my brain.“But our fathers will find out. They won't rest until they
STIX“I can't see.” I smack Ruby and press a finger to her lips scowling at her lack of tact and inconspicuousness before we were caught spying.Though I was sure my father already knew we were in here, that’s why neither of us could see, he was standing right where the peephole was.“Please excuse our lack of organization today,” My father begins to explain to our guests, “A body was discovered last night… a murder.” I could hear the disgust roll off his tongue and knew as the Alpha, he felt the loss of a pack member, but he put up a good front.“A murder? In your own pack?” I recognized the voice as Killian’s, as he spoke, Ruby’s body gave a slight shiver and she sucked in air through her teeth.“Aye,” My father replies, “It’s why we need you. Speaking of which…” I hear my father fumble around, moving from my view and giving me clear sight of the Renegade Alpha.It was my turn to shudder as a shiver wracked through my body at the sight of the tall dark and well-built godlike creature
GABEHastily I leave the Alphas office needing to get out of there something fierce. I didn’t know if I wanted to wrap my hand around the little female's throat and shake her or fuck her to submission.Either way, neither choice was good.This hadn’t gone how I had hoped but didn’t expect my news to be received with smiles. What I didn’t expect was the Raven Knight alpha to offer me his pack in exchange for our services.I didn’t want nor need a pack. I had the Renegades, which was as close to a pack as I wanted to run.They kept calling me alpha and I didn’t like it. I may have alpha blood coursing through my veins, but I was far from being one. Organized packs were not my thing. I left that life long ago.Killian and our two Zeta’s followed my lead, heading straight for our bikes that were right where we left them. All I could think about was getting as far away from here as possible. Far away from the little blonde with the sassy mouth that I wanted to fill, and not with my fist.Fu
STIXSWhy couldn’t I get that meathead out of my mind? For the thousandth time, I rub my wrist, recalling just how his touch made me feel. It was silly, but I couldn’t get the feeling of the sensation that ran through me to go away.The wolf inside me paced, she too was enamored by the Renegade Alpha’s touch. It wasn’t like anything I had ever experienced before.My father was angry at my behavior, and I was still angry with him. Why in the fuck did he think it was a good idea to show weakness and beg like he did.And as for that arrogant meathead, well we didn’t need him anyway. The sad truth was, we did need him and his renegades. The alternative was to be mated with Creepy Crane who wanted to combine our packs.“Hope!” My father’s voice bellows from the bottom of the stairs. Reluctantly I climbed off the bed and slowly walked to the door, peering over the landing I could see my father and his face still held a shit ton of anger. “Get down here!”“Yes, father.” I sigh, rolling my eye
GABEWe arrived home late at night, pulling up outside the bar. Usually, I would take my gear straight upstairs, but not tonight. Tonight, I made a beeline right for the bar.Music blared from inside and only became louder as I swung the door open. Killian had gone back to his place and was going to meet back up with us later after depositing his bag. The other Zeta’s with us had followed me into the bar once I had stated drinks were on the house for them.I find Jamerson perched at the end of the bar, not in our usual booth, watching my sister as she serves drinks, Nate and another helping her out.Clapping my second on the back harshly, as I don’t miss the way his eyes are trained on my sister, I take a seat beside him. “No problems while I was gone?”Sefy, without missing a beat, slides a drink in front of me, “Welcome home bro.” She smiles sweetly.“Nope.” Jamerson tilts his head, his mouth drawing into a tight line. “All quiet on the home front.” He chirps, gulping his drink. “How
GABEWalking into my bar and pushing open the heavy metal door, heading straight to the back corner of the old drinking house. Noticing, and not for the first time, that the place could do with a major facelift. The dirty, scuffed blue walls and patched-up leather booths of the Rising Moon had seen better days.Jamerson and Killian were huddled up, heads down, looking at a file, seemingly deep in discussion.They looked up, startled when I dropped the two duffle bags of cash onto the table in front of them with a loud thud.“All taken care of?” Jamerson asks while leaning over to unzip the bags and peeking in.“Yep,” I reply, watching him thumb the bills.“Is this all of it, the full amount?” His raised eyebrow made me smirk.“Yes brother, with extra for our troubles. Have the boys run it through the counter. If they are a dollar short of 400k, I want to know.” My eyebrows pinch together at the thought of them even trying to cheat us out of a deal. It would be a stupid move and a terr
GABE A knock on the door had me pulling from my thoughts and it was welcoming. I needed a distraction. Thinking about the past always grated at my nerves building up the anger that always simmered on the surface. “Doors open” I called out, not bothering to move from my horizontal position. “Alpha, Jamerson said you wanted to see me?” The sweet voice carried through the stark and drab apartment. The owner of the voice, Bailey, walked around the other side of the couch and now stood before me in a short black skirt and dark grey tank top. Her feet were clad with heels at least 4 inches high, giving the petite raven-haired beauty some height. I nodded to her, while my eyes traveled from head to toe and back up again. Her chocolate-colored eyes sparkled with excitement, yet her hands fiddled together nervously. Her large tits stretched the fabric of her top, and her skirt came just below her ass cheeks, leaving little to the imagination. “I did,” I said with a cool tone, while stil
STIXGrowing up, I lived carefree, thinking I would be in charge of my life when I became an adult.Oh, how wrong I was.I had everything I ever wanted, needed, or desired. I only realized after I had turned eighteen and was thrust into the world of adulthood how utterly stupid it was of me, to think I could live my life the way I wanted under my father’s protection. Even some things were out of his control.I wasn’t an idiot; I just chose to be ignorant. Ignorant to the fact that as an Alpha born female, I had no choices. We weren’t free to find a fated, not that that happens very often.Finding your fated mate that some goddess supposedly made just for you, they were a rare case, if there were any at all in the past century. Nor were we free to fall in love with a chosen, because as soon as that happened, some nasty Alpha would come to lay claim to you and threaten the lives of your pack members if you didn’t bow your head and submit to their demands.I say females born to Alpha’s,
