***“Exactly.” Enzo nodded. “So maybe you can help me understand why I... The fuck!” Enzo exclaimed when something suddenly flew at him and knocked him down forcefully. He landed on his back on the lush grass a bit further from the group.Both the werewolves and the vampires instantly went into battle mode. Whilst all the male vampires except Enzo, of course, drew out their swords and bared their fangs, majority of the werewolves gathered shifted into their wolf forms.“Calm down everyone.” Jeremy roared, his eyes on a chuckling Enzo who still remained on his back and a certain very wet silver pup sitting on his chest, licking at the vampire’s face.“Jeremy?” Ryan materialized beside his mate with a cry. “Sylver…”“Shhh…” Jeremy shushed his mate as he pointed to where the vampire lay with his son. “There he is. What happened?” Jeremy breathed.“He kept trying to teleport out of the bathroom when I was bathing him.” Ryan began to explain. “But I would tell him to stay. He tried so many
***Ryan broke into a run. When he got to where Enzo and his…son lay, within the protective bubble, the shield didn’t even disappear although it was obvious that his son had seen him. Sylver clearly didn’t even trust him around Enzo, Ryan thought as he dropped onto the lush grass beside the bubble, his cheeks wet with tears…of joy.“Syl? Honey?” Ryan said softly as he reached out to touch the shield.A completely human Sylver rolled off Enzo and looked at Ryan whose wet, wide eyes were filled with love, delight, and shock. Love because he loved his son to bits of course. Delight because for the first time, he was looking at his son in his human form. And shock because…well, his son was supposed to be a little over two months but actually looked like a seven-month-old kid. He was crawling towards him for goodness sake.“You’re so beautiful,” Ryan said softly, staring at his naked son. Sylver had thick soft-looking black hair like Jeremy’s, green eyes like Ryan’s, and an absolutely ador
***Pawz, one of the newest additions to the country’s club scene was buzzing. The club, which was hard to get into, could hold up to five hundred people but still managed to feel intimate. It boasted of a restaurant, a café, and three dance floors which had enough space where everyone could dance away all their troubles. Pawz had a stellar reputation for top-notch local and international DJs who dished out scintillating sounds. Packed full with people, amazing music, and pure fun, Pawz was not only the hottest party spot every night of the week, but it was also the perfect environment for a dose of dancing way into the night.In the club’s sophisticated wonderland of VIP space, about eleven sexy hunks and a foxy lady whose outfit was hands-down the hottest and slinkiest in the club sat drinking and enjoying the good music that the DJ was dishing out. If they noticed the lustful glances being thrown their way by both females and males, they gave no indication. It was obvious that they
***“You’re right.” Philip sighed. “We have a lot to celebrate. Too bad Troy’s not going to be on the Island from day one like every other person.”On the week in question, Troy had exams to write. Unfortunately, however, it was the most appropriate time for the ceremony. Since all alphas were invited to the ceremony, the planning committee had to find a date that would be suitable for everyone. The final day that was settled on was chosen after taking into consideration events that had already been planned. Troy’s last paper was on a Thursday which meant he could not be on the Island from Wednesday like everyone else. The alpha and his mate were therefore going to join the Soirée on Thursday evening.“That sucks but unfortunately, that’s the most appropriate time.” Jeremy sighed. “The two of you can go there later and have all the fun you want. After all, that’s his Island too.” He added quietly. “You two will be in the cave by the way. I know Troy will love seeing all those pictures
***“Fair enough.” Philip nodded. “As you said, Sylver is just a baby. So we have years ahead of us. When he’s old enough to pick a mate, he will definitely come and find you. We toe the line of humans so that will probably be in the next twenty-one years…”“Don’t you mean eighteen?” Gaia muttered.“In some cultures, it’s thirty,” Jeremy growled, making Philip, Stan, and Paige burst into laughter.“I believe it’s up to Enzo and Sylver,” Aurora said, trying to suppress her smile.“Well, for now, you can forget about him,” Jeremy stated.“I’m sorry but I can’t do that,” Enzo growled, a scowl marring his handsome face. “In as much as you’re the child’s father, I am the one he’s to spend the rest of his life with so...”“The fuck did you just say to me?” Jeremy bellowed, startling everyone.“Shush, son,” Aurora whispered. She clearly didn’t want her son to make Jeremy angry. They’d heard enough to know that it wasn’t a good idea.“No mother, I need to say my piece.” Enzo got to his feet a
***“Thank you.” Aurora mouthed at Ryan. “We are grateful to you for not killing us on sight. And I do apologize again for dropping in unannounced. We’ve taken much of your time already.” She got to her feet and extended her hand to Philip. “We will definitely be getting in touch.”The others stood too and shook hands with the werewolves. It was no surprise at all when Aurora hugged Ryan. Stan gave Enzo a one-arm bro hug and insisted on kissing Gaia on both cheeks which made the chic vampire laugh. Ryan gave Enzo a warm hug and told him to take good care of himself for Sylver. When Enzo came face to face with Jeremy, both men sized each other up, gave each other curt nods, and then turned to go.“You must be shitting me.” Ryan muttered, rolling his eyes at his stubborn mate and equally stubborn son-in-law. “Really, Jeremy?”“He wants to take my son from me.” Jeremy growled under his breath. “Surely you can’t expect me to like him.”“He never said he wanted to take…ugh why do I even bo
***“So where’s Jeremy?” Gloria asked quietly.“Ryan had to whisk him away,” Philip responded.“Alright, can I have a chat with you, Enzo?” Gloria smiled and then gestured at a door in the conference room.“Sure.” Enzo stood with Sylver in his arms and followed Gloria into an inner room even as the people who remained in the conference room finally began to converse.“So you actually told my son you wanted to take his son,” Gloria said with a chuckle as she took a seat on a plush couch.“Well, I meant I was going to take him for a day or two.” Enzo sighed. “Your son didn’t even allow me to complete my sentence. Of course, I know that no parent will be comfortable with their kid going away for a few days but…”“Try with a complete stranger,” Gloria muttered.“I wouldn’t harm him,” Enzo said. “I just…” He let out a deep breath.“I understand you. But put yourself in the shoes of the parents.” Gloria said softly. “Of course they know you wouldn’t harm Sylver. I mean Ryan did whisk my son
***Everyone seemed to be in good spirits. Conversation flowed so easily it seemed as if they’d all known each other for years. Even when the door to the conference room opened later to reveal Jeremy, Ryan, and the three elders, the calm atmosphere remained. Ryan went to sit beside Enzo and picked up Sylver whose arms were stretched out towards him. The boy had clearly missed his dad. After a quick nod at Philip, Jeremy asked for everyone’s attention.“I apologize to all of you, especially our guests, for losing my temper out there.” He began in a quiet voice. “The thought of not seeing my child made me see red…literally. I’ve arranged for a chopper to take you to your…”“No need for that.” Piero cut in. “I’ve already called for another to pick us up.”Jeremy nodded. “I will replace or pay for the one that I destroyed.” He said. “Whichever you prefer.”“You don’t have to do that, Jeremy,” Enzo said. “What I said was wrong. Your reaction, although extreme, was only to be expected of an
***Philip was lost in a sea of pleasure. The sensations that rolled through his body literally left him weak. Somehow, Troy had completely taken over. Throughout that passionate lip-lock, Troy’s hip never stopped moving. He bounced, squeezed, gyrated, and rocked mindlessly against Philip whilst whispering sweet nothings on their mind link. Troy told his man about how much he loved having him inside him, how much he loved the way his sweet shaft was massaging his pleasure button, and how much he wanted him to keep fucking him and never stop.Philip’s entire body began to quake. Troy’s words in his mind, his lips on his, and that sweet tight warmth on his cock felt so staggeringly good it was driving him insane. Philip was completely at the mercy of his sexy mate, near mindless with the need to climax. When he felt that familiar incredibly delicious slither along his spine, his hips surged up, thrusting deep…hitting Troy’s pleasure button with brutal force. Each man tore his mouth away
***Philip pulled down Troy’s pants together with his boxers. Then he crouched down to pull off Troy’s boots and socks, sucking on the head of Troy’s weeping hard cock as he took care of the boots. Troy couldn’t help his cries of pleasure. But immediately after he was free of his boots and pants, Philip was back on his feet.“Kneel on that chair, spread ’em, and arch that arse.” Philip rasped, pointing to a chair that faced the floor-to-ceiling window through which Troy had been admiring the outside view. They were on the top floor so couldn’t possibly be seen by anyone.The alpha grabbed a remote and pressed play, instantly filling the suite with Rihanna’s ‘Love On The Brain’.“Love that song,” Troy mumbled as he did as his mate had instructed, holding onto the back of the chair.“I know.” Philip pressed repeat and threw the remote onto the couch. Then he was on his knees behind Troy, flicking his wet tongue across Troy’s twitching hole.“Oh my god…” Troy gasped, his grip tightening
***“I can’t get over how beautiful this place is.” Troy breathed as he glanced around their sinfully sumptuous suite with its jaw-dropping decor.Their suite, which was supposed to be the most luxurious and expensive in the hotel spanned two full floors. It had its own private fitness room, sauna, steam bath and Jacuzzi, a formal dining room, and its own private elevator. They even had a specially assigned chef and butler. When Troy accidentally pressed a button on the wall and caused the drapes to part, he couldn’t stifle the gasp that tore out of him.“Oh my god, the view from here is incredible.”“It sure is.” Philip breathed from behind his mate, his gaze locked on his sexy adorable mate.“Are you seeing this, Philip?” Troy gushed, totally oblivious to the heated look his mate was giving him. “Wow! This is…” His breath hitched in his throat when he felt Philip’s arms going around him from behind. The intensity of the alpha’s hunger hit Troy like a ton of bricks. Arousal surged th
***Philip waited until the laughter died down before speaking more solemnly:“Being someone’s first love may be great. But to be their last is beyond perfect. It’s priceless. I’ve met thousands of people. But none of them really touched me here…” He laid a hand on his heart and then turned to face Troy. Then for the very first time since meeting his mate, the alpha let down his mind-barrier, allowing Troy into his mind. “…Until I laid eyes on you. Then my heart kinda went…‘oh there he is…I’ve been looking for you.’” The crowd laughed softly. “My life changed…forever. You awakened my soul and planted a fire in my heart that brings peace to my mind. Thank you.You are the very air that I breathe, Troy. I’d give up my soul for you in an instant, even if it means I have to spend eternity in torment.” He rasped in a voice filled with so much emotion. “I promise to live within the warmth of your heart and always call it home. I promise to speak when words are needed and to share the silenc
***When the announcer gave the signal, the two werewolves began to circle each other, both looking for an opening to pounce. The first clash was explosive, both clearly meant business. It was definitely not like any mating combat that had ever happened. Stan was bigger, taller, and had experience on his side but Troy had speed. The young in the crowd were impressed and inspired by the sheer power and skill that was being displayed whilst the grown-ups couldn’t help but appreciate and admire the beauty of the combat. Neither held back. It was definitely not an act. After about eight minutes of awesome display of strength and skill, Stan finally got the upper hand.A collective gasp went up when Stan pinned Troy and raised a hand to deliver his victory strike. What the crowd didn’t anticipate was the swift, brilliantly-executed move that Troy pulled. They did see the shock on the warrior’s face a split second before everything changed. One moment, a cocky Stan had his hand up ready to
***The energy in the brightly lit indoor arena of the Stanwood Pack was like never before. There were at least four thousand people in the arena which could easily accommodate ten thousand people. It was indeed a special day for the pack. Their alpha was finally having his mating ceremony. The pack had been looking forward to the ceremony for months. Every member of the pack, except for babies and toddlers who wouldn’t be comfortable with all the excited noise, was present. Before the revision of the ceremony, only wolves from age twenty-one going up were allowed to attend a mating ceremony.But since the x-rated parts had been taken out, every pack member could be part. Not only was every alpha present, there were invited guests from other packs and also, other supernatural beings. The dancing, drinking, and merry-making had begun in the morning when the group who had attended the Bachelor Soiree at Quain Islands got to the pack-house. Everyone was therefore already in the festive m
***“You know what I mean…” Troy snapped, thrusting up into Philip’s fist. “Just give me your cock already.”‘Shut up and feel.’ Philip whispered on their mind-link even as he increased his tempo. He loved to make his sexy mate come but he couldn’t deny how fun it was to tease the guy.“Oh shit, I’m gonna…what the fuck, Philip.” Troy gasped when Philip let go of not only his drooling cock but also his nipple. He broke out in a sweat. “Why?” Frustrated lust-glazed eyes stared up at Philip. “I really need to come, Philip.” He whispered shakily.“And you will...” Philip breathed. He thought the lust, frustration, irritation, and urgent appeal within his mate’s beautiful eyes made the man so hot. “…soon.” He murmured, getting to his feet. “I just want to give your other nipple some attention too.”“Bullshit, you’re just teasing me,” Troy growled. “That’s mean, Philip.” His eyes followed Philip as he moved to the opposite side of the dining table. “You want me…” He breathed, his eyes stuck
***“I owe your mate big.” Philip breathed. “But for him, I definitely wouldn’t be planning my mating ceremony right now. We’d have been in the middle of a war.”“Yeah, he did save the day didn’t he?” Jeremy chuckled.“And it’s clear that he actually likes Enzo,” Philip said. “I think you should make an effort to get to know him. Our ceremony is a fine opportunity to do that, Jer.” Philip said quietly. “He’s part of the family now, anyway. It’s about time we started treating him like one.”“Aright, alright invite him.” Jeremy groaned. “It’s your party.”“It sure is.”“Ryan will be happy.” Jeremy couldn’t hide his smile.“I know he will.” Philip beamed.***Troy threw his head back and drummed his fingers on the dining table. He was tired. He’d spent the day helping some of his mates complete their assessment courses which were due for submission. He therefore had a lot to cover before his paper the next day. He was sure the anxiety he felt was due to the fact that it was his first pap
