Aria The next few weeks flew by as Jasper became even more entwined in our lives. He was staying over more, and Eli was ecstatic to have his father around. Jasper had taken over one side of my closet; his grooming supplies had their own space in my bathroom. It was seamless. I placed the dinner I had prepared on the table and called them to the dining room. “Guys, supper.” I yell out as I grab some drinks from the refrigerator. “Coming.” Eli yells out before running into the bathroom. I can hear him talking to his dad but can’t hear what they are saying as they wash their hands. I shake my head and wash my hands in the sink. Eli and Jasper sit down at the table as I dry my hands. “This looks great,” Jasper says, smiling up at me. “Yeah, mom this looks yummy.” Eli says watching Jasper closely, mimicking his movements. I can’t help but smile at them as I sit down and start dishing out food onto Eli’s plate.
He pushed his hair from his forehead and shrugged, “Honestly, I don’t think so as long as she sticks to Linc. He would do anything for her. Yeah, she pisses him off but I’m fairly sure he wants her.” “I just can’t help but worry. Messages like that keep popping up on all her accounts. Rather it's her blog, or her Instagram or even her twitter feed. She has hidden her locations for safety, but it scares me.” He wrapped his arms around me pulling me in and tucking my head under his chin. “We can’t do anything else to my knowledge. She has the SafeLinx bracelet, she has Linc. Plus, her entire entourage.” I nod then look over at Eli passed out on the sofa. Jasper follows my gaze and smiles. “I’ll put him to bed, love.” he says, pressing a kiss to my cheek before heading over to Eli. I turn and start cleaning up the dining room and kitchen, it takes a few minutes before I feel Jasper walk up behind me and press himself
Jasper POV My phone rang at two in the morning waking us both up. I glanced at the screen and saw Asher’s name. “Do you know-” I start. “Lori’s missing.” he yells. I sit straight up and look over at Aria, “Call Lori.” I say urgently. She grabs her phone and calls Lori, but the phone keeps going to voicemail. “What makes you think she’s missing?” I ask as Aria becomes frustrated and starts sending out texts and calling Braylin. Asher is cussing in my ear as I half listen to Aria’s conversation with Braylin. “What do you mean she’s been keeping secrets for months? This is insane Braylin. Sending her photos? What the ever-loving fuck?! Get here now! Everyone needs to meet now.” Aria looks over at me and I relay the message to Asher. “Braylin has something to tell us, it's about Lori.” “What is it?” he asks breathless. “Get here, I have no idea. Just get he
Aria POV The next few weeks I alternated between tears, fear and anger. How could Lori not tell me something was going on? How could she not trust that I would do anything to protect her. I spent half the time crying in Jasper’s arms as he held me close to him throughout the nights. The other half I pushed him away because I didn’t feel I deserved to be comforted when Lori is missing and possibly being hurt. The what if’s clouds my head to the point I can’t function. Jasper refused to let me be a part of the search which caused a whole lot of tension between the two of us. I was refusing to be intimate, but he just laughed and pulled me close like it didn’t faze him that we weren’t having sex. It was honestly infuriating. I had the right to search for Lori. Linc and Jasper had taken Lori’s work computer from the shelter and were searching for clues on it that would hopefully lead us to whoever had stalked her and taken her. I was curren
Jasper POV By the time I arrived Asher had already rushed in. An ambulance sat out front of the building. I could see Asher fussing over Lori. Linc was assisting a police officer in putting a man in the back of a police car. He was yelling for Lori. I shake my head; Of course I missed it. Asher wasn’t going to wait on anyone trying to get to her. I turned to the ambulance and holler out at him, “It took me ten minutes.” Asher turned and shrugged. “Get out,” Lori said to him. “I am not going anywhere,” he said. I could see her roll her eyes. “He’s not related to me.” she starts saying to the EMT crew. “I’m her fiancé.” he says, producing a ring from who knows where. I rolled my eyes; I was not getting involved with that. “No, he’s not!” Lori yells. I turn when Linc comes up beside me. “Why even call us to help?” I say nodding at them with a grin. “I was already with h
I shake my head, “I’m calling Aria, we’ll meet you at the hospital.” I say to Linc before I climb into the car and call Aria. “You found her?” she says without saying hello. “Yes, Asher had rushed in before I arrived, I don’t know all the details, but I saw her. She’s alive.” “I’ll grab Eli and we will be waiting on you.” she says. “Be there in ten.” She hangs up the phone and I drive back to our home and see Aria and Eli standing in the doorway. Eli is bouncing up and down. I smile, everything is going to be better now that our family is safe. She helps Eli into his car seat and secures him before hopping in the front seat and buckling herself in. I press a kiss to her cheek before heading to the hospital. I drop them off at the entrance to the ER, before parking the car and heading in myself. Asher was at the front desk growling at the nurses with Aria and Eli beside him. She was patting
Aria Eli launched himself out of my arms onto Lori’s hospital bed and wrapped himself around her like a spider monkey and broke down in tears. “Lo, you can never ever leave me again. I missed you so much. I cried and cried without you. You’re my best friend Lo. You can’t ever go away again.” He cried as she wrapped her bruised arms around his little body and held him tightly to her body. “I’ll never leave you buddy. I didn’t want to leave you. I missed you so much little love.” she whispered into the top of his head. I sat at the edge of the bed as he held her tightly. I cried silently watching my best friend love my son like he was her own. Her eyes locked on mine. I know the question was reflected in my eyes, the one I couldn’t bring myself to ask out loud. She swallowed deeply and shook her head no. Thank God! I thought and took a deep breath. “How bad are you hurt?” I asked instead. She shook her head and ti
“Join me?” I say softly holding my hand out to him. He jerks away from the doorway and grabs his shirt at the back of his neck and pulls it off slowly. I moan and then blush because his eyes catch mine and he smiles. “You like when I strip for you?” He asks the laughter evident in his voice. I blush but nod my head. He comes up to me and presses a kiss to my neck causing a moan to escape. “Baby I’ll strip for you another day. I just want to hold you right now.” I smile sleepily up at him, “Okay love.” He grins and helps me step into the bathtub before taking his jeans off followed by his boxer briefs. I moan at the sight of his erection. He shrugs. “Happens when you are near. Ignore him.” I laugh softly as he climbs in behind me sliding his legs around me and leaning against the back of the tub, my back to his front as I lean against him. “I love you.” he whispers in my ear before grabbing my loofah and body wash.
Braylin Ten Years Ago I wring my hands together in front of me, my nerves firing on all cylinders. I feel like my anxiety is about to take over, yet I know I have to do this. I have to talk to the one man in the world that understands me better than anybody; the person who has always been there for me: my father. After Mom left us when I was five, I never wanted to disappoint him the way she did, but I'm honestly afraid I'm about to do more than disappoint him. How do you tell your father that his sixteen year old daughter is confused about everything that she is? How do you tell him that you don't understand what is going on in your own mind? That the feelings you feel are so overwhelming that you want to follow them. That's not a choice. Should I feel ashamed? Should I feel guilty? I'm not even sure how I feel. I just know that I am confused and everything inside of me is screaming for me to follow my urges. Only my dad could possibly be the one to answer and tell me it's ok
I must not be the type of soul that people want to save. There has to be something wrong with me. My parents turned their backs on me when I was still a pup. Walking away from being parents. That’s not normal for wolves. Most wolves crave being in a pack. Having pups is part of the DNA of a wolf. Yet my parts just walked away like it never mattered that I existed. Then falling for my ex-husband even when he wasn’t my mate and allowing him to break me physically and emotionally, mentally. I must attract the bad, there’s no other reason I can think of that he would come back here today and rush me when I left for work. Ranting and raving about how lucky I am that he wasn’t killing me for getting him locked up before. I hadn’t heard he had made bail. He threw me into the house and grabbed my arm, breaking it with how strong he was. My wolf hiding , not wanting to come forward and protect me from this monster. She was weak, submissive, she was too afraid to come out and protect herself.
LoriWe made it through Aria and Jaspers big day, and I finally felt like I could breathe a sigh of relief. The planning had been made harder by my anxiety of going out, having the guys pick up things I had ordered only to find they weren’t the right color or look that I had planned. I was tired of not being able to go out without Asher by my side.While I love him and want to have a life with him, I need to be able to go back to work, to go shopping, to be able to breathe. I couldn’t let what James did to me stop me from having the life I wanted to live. And right now he was winning.Asher held one hand while I held Sirus’s lead in the other. Yeah, I had managed to run from him when I thought I had been lied to, but my adrenaline had taken over. My flight or fight had kicked in and apparently, I am a runner. Thank goddess I had my wolf because I definitely am not a runner on any normal occasion.We slowly made our way around the driveway of what Aria and I now lovingly called the com
AsherI flipped Lori onto her hands and knees then pushed against her upper back to make her lower her chest and head to the bed. Pushing her ass higher in the air. Presenting herself to me. My wolf ached to come out and take hers just like this.Smack! Smack!I peppered her ass with hard slaps against her ass, turning her pale ass to red, “No Asher! Stop! You can’t spank me! I am not a child!” she screeched, and I couldn’t help but grin before I spoke.“You can’t leave me like that ever again. If you are pissed off at me you come to me, Lori, I don’t care how pissed you are. You come to me.”“I will!” she cried.I pressed a finger through her slit and groaned at the feel of her dripping with my cum. “You are my mate, my only mate. The only woman that I have ever truly loved. So we don’t run away from our issues, we face them head on together. That is something I promised you when I saved you, now I need you to promise me.”“I promise, Asher, I’m so sorry.” She sobbed into the pillow.
LoriWas I mad at Asher, kind of. Was I more pissed at myself because I wanted this to be real, but my own mental issues was trying to convince me that he was a liar. Yes. However, I should have listened to my wolf. I should have listened to what she was telling me the entire time I was running away.That he is her mate. That she belongs to him. My wolf had claimed him, point blank period. And to find out that that bitch had come here to try and blackmail him for money, who the fuck did she think she is.I go to run past Asher, ready to go find that bitch and take her down. No one threatens what is mine. And Asher is mine.He grabs me around the waist before I can run past him and lifts me over his shoulder in a fireman’s hold and tells Aria, “We will be borrowing Lori’s old room for a bit.”I hear her laugh as he carries me down the hall cursing and punching at his back, before he slaps a hand down across my ass.“You can’t spank me, Asher!”“I just did, and if you don’t calm the fuc
Asher“Leah, I don’t know why the fuck you are here, but if you don’t get your cheating ass back on a plane to Washington, I will make fucking sure that Jasper kicks you out of this pack and makes it to where no pack in the states will accept you. You just ran my mate of with your lies. I will end you if I ever see you around here again!” I growl. I turn to leave, to follow Lori. To explain that Leah was my ex. That Lori was my mate no one else was.Leah grabbed my arm and turned me back towards her, “That fat girl was so not your mate baby, you could never go for someone like that,” she rolls her eyes and laughs before crying out as I wrapped one hand around her throat not holding her tightly just enough to get her attention.“You listen to me, that woman is worth a million of you. She doesn’t cheat, she doesn’t lie, she doesn’t try to be manipulative and unlike you she knows how to be faithful.”She narrows her eyes at me, “you better listen to what I have to say Asher. I have video
LoriI can’t believe that I made love to Asher, finally. I thought I would freeze up from the words that James had said, but being with Asher was like breathing. Easy, fun, and so much more than I could have ever imagined.I pulled my favorite jumpsuit, that had nude underlining with black lace over the stomach and chest with pockets and soft material at the legs. I looked in the mirror and was proud of what I saw, taking a moment to lift my hand to the new mark on my neck, the mark showing that I was taken, that I was wanted, loved and claimed by my mate. I sighed happily, Asher walked up behind me and pressed a kiss to the mark, his eyes locked on mine.“I can feel how happy you are,” He whispers in my ear.“I feel like I don’t deserve it but want to keep it so badly it hurts.” I say.He nods, “I get it, I don’t feel like I deserve this, not after what happened in school, even though I was trying to protect you, I still hurt you. Then when I found you and Aria, I just lashed out, an
LoriI can’t believe the asshole tore out my birth control. At the same time, I was thrilled that he wanted to breed me. That he wanted us so badly that he did it.He lifted me onto my knee’s to straddle him.“What the hell, Asher?”“Baby, I don’t want to hurt you so what we are going to do is I’m going to have you take control for now. I want you to lower yourself on me until you can take me completely. What you are going to do is you are going to rise and fall and take your time. Ride me. Take me in your hand, Good fucking girl, you are such a good girl for me. Now place me at your entrance, yes Lori, fuck you are going to make me cum so fast.”I preened at his praise as I followed his instructions. I slowly eased down a small amount, gasping at the feel of the head of his thick cock stretching me. The small amount of pain disappearing at the overwhelming amount of pleasure that I was feeling as I inched my way down his cock.“Fuck, Asher please I need, please just please!” I cried;
AsherAfter getting the approval from Lori, I quickly called our home inspector and the housing developer to put in our bid for the homes and the land surrounded Jasper and Aria’s new home. I could hear Lori squealing on her phone from where I sat.I am so thankful that I have been given the chance to give her happiness back. After everything I had put her through, everything that asshole put her through, she was happy again.Lori walked back into the room and stood in front of me, nibbling on her thumb, I could smell her arousal, but I wasn’t going to force her to do anything she wasn’t ready for.She took a deep breath, nodded then climbed into my lap facing me. I smiled and wrapped my arms around her shoulder. She leaned forward and softly pressed her lips to mine. I could smell her becoming anxious when I wasn’t deepening the kiss.I pulled her closer, her breasts pressed against my chest. Deeping the kiss and pushing one hand into her hair and the other on her hip. Grinding her a
