2024-10-29 19:42:56~ JESSE ~
I looked at the two submitted males, bending at the waist so their heads were well below their waists, and I was shocked.
Were they offering that to Cazz, or to me?
It all happened in seconds, so I found myself watching them over my shoulder, chewing on my lip.
Then we turned and there were three servants, one of them a female who clearly managed others, because she had the big loop of keys at her waist that only the Lead servants carried.
She was speaking with two of the younger servants, but she turned to look when we stepped into view… and had exactly the same response as the guards had.
“Cazz, what’s—”

~ CASIMIR ~“…The first priority has to be solidifying the hierarchy,” Harn, the oldest of the males, growled. “Without clarity on that, even loyal wolves might be swayed—and could be weakened if they’re uncertain of their positions. We can’t face a confrontation with another pack, or even the humans, while the rankings are so in flux. We were already shaky because of the Selection debacle. Now this?”I ground my teeth.“While the safety and security of the pack and the Queen must be our first priority, I agree that we have to give time to bringing the new leaders forward. And quickly. It’s a show of strength to those off the mountain if we are seen to still be
Slave to the Wolf King 316. What You Heard
~ JESSE ~“…what we do know is that we need to focus on the future, not the past.”Cazz’s words were simple, firm, assertive. And they were right. I knew that. I knew it in my bones. It was advice I’d given and reminded myself of countless times in my life.There was nothing to be gained by letting the past drag me back.But when that thought came out of Cazz’s mouth, my heart stuttered, just for a second. It made my breath catch and Cazz caught it, and tensed.As the men around the table continued discussing the best way forward, his worried eyes cut to meet mine.‘Jesse,

~ JESSE ~Once they’d all settled back into their seats, Cazz raised his hand for their silence again, and the last of that rumbling chatter went quiet.“Thank you for celebrating with us, brothers,” Cazz said with a smile. “But I’m sure, like me, you see how this creates an even greater sense of vulnerability for us, especially in light of the human network that threatens to undermine us. The Queen, being human, will need to be protected, not thrown into the fray.”“But, her power is such an effective weapon—we all saw what you could achieve together, Cazz!” Cayn growled. “Females have been giving birth since the dawn of time. Yours will manage it, just as they all do.”“I pray so,” he said omi

~ CASIMIR ~Rake slipped back into the Council chamber just as the guards went to retrieve Jesse’s brother, Ryan.Our eyes met and he nodded. ‘It’s done.’‘Locked? Barred?’‘Entirely. Except for the contractor. I’ve given him a key and been clear that he and his team are only to work when it's empty.’‘Thank you.’‘It’s the right choice, Cazz. I’ll always support you in those.’I’d sent Rake to handle a few practical details while everyone was distracted by this, so there wouldn’t be awkward discussion that would put Jesse in a difficult spot.My den in the alcoves was being torn out. Eventually the space could become a lounge, or… whatever the pack wanted. I was not going to keep a personal den anymore. Not after… what had happened. I grieved the loss of my playground, but I couldn’t do it to Jesse. We would have to find other ways to entertain ourselves when things returned to normal. Neither of us would be returning to that space. Ever.But the pack would be unsettled by this when

~ CASIMIR ~I took a deep breath. ‘Submit your power to mine—slowly this time. Ease control to me if you can. Don’t throw it in my lap, see if you can feed it to me… like turning on a faucet. It might be easier if you touch me.’There was a moment where she just stood there, facing her brother, then she lifted her hand and put it over mine on her shoulder. She bit her lip and her chest expanded once, then I felt the shift.A tiny trickle of her power that became a sudden wave so that I grunted, gathering it quickly before it rushed out of both our control.‘Sorry,’ she sent weakly. ‘I still don’t really know how to do that.’‘It’s fine. You’re doing well,’ I said, glad she couldn’t see the sweat trickling down my brow. But now that I had her power in my grasp and could braid our strength together, I couldn’t help but smile.This fucker didn’t have a chance. And I couldn’t resist a little dig.“Ryan, thank your sister for the fact that you haven’t already been neutered. Because trust m

~ CASIMIR ~Jesse was intent, staring at her brother, swallowing, bracing.I squeezed her shoulder to keep her attention.‘You want him submitted—to both of us. He may do or say things that appear to others that he’s ready to harm us. But his true actions and intentions will be for our good.’Jesse nodded, so I continued.‘He is to fully believe that you are on his side—that you’ve been working against me, and will continue to do so. That he admires you and sees you as a part of his network—the jewel in his crown.’Jesse frowned then

~ CASIMIR ~‘Maya!’‘I’ve got it,’ she answered, already gathering power and lifting his head with the weaves, hobbling forward as she cradled his head and set the weaves on him so that he stopped shaking and his wheezes turned to pants, then sighs.Jesse was standing with her hands on her mouth, staring in horror. But within moments her brother was rolling onto his knees and staggering back to his feet, looking sheepish, though with a gleaming light in his eyes that belied his apparent admiration of his sister.“You do not touch her. Ever,”
Slave to the Wolf King 322. The Reckoning
~ JESSE ~I sat at the table, Cazz right alongside me, holding my hand under the tabletop, glaring at my father who was slumped on the other side.He’d been beaten. And I couldn’t find an ounce of compassion for him.The two guards that brought him out stood, one on either side, their faces twisted into contempt. But my father didn’t even look at them.He just stared at me—drank me in. At first I thought his desperation had to be faked. But then I remembered, he was being painfully honest.I’d tested it.“Did you kill Mom?”

~ CASIMIR ~I was pretty sure if I didn’t get inside her, I was going to eat her alive.Scooting with her in my lap, still straddling me, I got her so both my knees and her back were flat against the wall. Then I flipped open the wide, leather cuffs that had been secured directly to the wall and first lifted one of her hands, to strap it in so her hand was levered above her shoulder, but with her arm comfortably bent so she could relax. Then I did the same with her other hand on the other side.So I straddled the banana-seat, while she straddled me and her hands were secured to the wall behind her.Her breasts rose and fell with her heavy breathing, and her eyes were bright with desire.Overwhelmed again with how much thought she’d put into this, for a moment I just took her face in my hands and kissed her. But that drew us together—my cock pressing against her, and I couldn’t resist rolling my hips, teasing

~ CASIMIR ~“I made a new Den,” Jesse whispered, her hands over her mouth, staring up at me—those beautiful eyes wide, but also a little fearful. “I know it’s not the same, but I got Ghere to help me because he remembered what things you’d had before and… I hope you like it.”Like it? Was she serious?My heart was slamming against my ribs, and I was having trouble breathing.The room seemed smaller than I remembered because the walls were painted a dull black. But the tighter space than what I’d had down next to the Den just made it feel more intimate.There were two lamps, one on each end, and a chandelier high above. Candles everywhere, though she hadn’t lit mo

~ JESSE ~It was Cazz’s turn to plan the monthly date. But I was humming about this one. Things were finally ready, and impossibly, Ghere had helped me successfully pull off the surprise. But I still had to figure out how to get Cazz there without ruining it.He’d taken me out to the meadow again—my favorite date. Though we’d enjoyed several others now too—and we’d just finished eating. He was leaning back against the cab of the truck, looking out at the city lights, his brows a little heavy.“What are you thinking about?” I asked him, though I had a hunch.He had his arm around me and I was leaning on his shoulder. His hand trailed up and

~ CASIMIR ~I came out of the bathing room after a long bath rubbing my hair with a towel, to find my mate standing in the middle of the chamber with her arms folded and looking sternly at my daughter, who sat on the floor in nothing but a diaper, with her chubby legs straight out. She, too, had her arms folded and her lips pursed in the perfect reflection of her mother.The two glared at each other and half my heart went cold, while the other half wanted to splutter with laughter.“Abigail, I have told you—”“No!”Our daughter could only get her tongue around a few words so far, but
Slave to the Wolf King 398. See Me
~ JESSE (a few weeks later) ~I had just finished nursing Abigail and was holding her on my lap while Reeca sat with me on the couch.Her eyes were bright and she was beginning to smile, so I was tickling her cheeks to see if I could get her to do it. But she was sleepy because she’d just eaten and only yawned and cooed.“She’s a very calm baby,” Reeca commented from the other end of the couch, smiling. She loved babies, and had been so helpful when I was tired—and just for reassurance for me.She was a calm presence in any room, and with Abigail, she showed a lot of delight and joy that she seemed to stifle in other areas of her life.“Reeca,” I said carefully, because I’d b

~ JESSE ~I was too tired to do more than lift my hands to his neck, so I just curled my face into his chest and let him settle us into the chair, cradled in his arms with my ass in his lap.When he’d sat, I had my head resting on his shoulder and my body curled in his arms.“Do you hurt?” he asked quickly.“No, just tired, like I said.”I felt him relax a little then and another chill started in my blood.“Cazz… what’s happened?” I asked quietly.He turned his head to meet my eyes and lifted his hand to comb hair back from my face. His throat bobbed, but his touch was g

~ JESSE (Hours later) ~My dreams were disturbing—my body in pain, screams of terror, darkness, the floor shaking, the mountain falling, humans fleeing and wolves…I tried to break free, tried desperately to open my eyes and to speak, because I knew I was asleep. But all I did was fade… in and out. The nightmares, or nothing.And through it all, his voice.“Heal… live.”My heart ached. My body hurt. My chest didn’t want to expand. It was as if my flesh fought his words, and I didn’t understand.But finally, the dreams faded and I could hear a heartbeat. Little, and quick. And feel warm flesh. And the breath of my m
Slave to the Wolf King 395. Still Here
~ CASIMIR ~I felt the moment the power went out of Jesse. The entire mountain felt it.I howled with triumph and shifted, sprinting towards the room, ecstatic when there was no sense of Maya gripping my mind or stealing anything from me. But of course, there was no power left for her to steal.I prayed and pleaded and ran, Rory and the others coming in my wake. And the moment I broke through that door in my wolf—the only power left to me anymore—everything slowed. Though my body whipped and my mind was singularly focused, it was as if everything happened in slow motion.I caught a bare glimpse of Jesse on the bed, and at first my heart leaped. She was moving, awake, aware,
Slave to the Wolf King 394. The Arrival
~ JESSE ~Maya had me sitting up in the bed, curled forward, gripping my knees. Reeca on one side, helping prop me up, a guard on the other.My body was nothing but a conduit for pain. Wave after wave, my entire lower body condensing, contracting, pushing to get this baby out. I could barely think.Cazz was there, so quiet, so distant, but there, calling his encouragement and pushing love at me through the bond.There was a moment when I thought I wouldn’t make it, when I thought my body would give and I would just drift away.But then I caught Maya smiling. Leaning forward between my legs, reaching, grasping, for
