Poor Apple, she must be so confused! So which one do you think? Wolf or insanity? Thank you all for your patience. I will go back to two chapters a day on the weekends when I have more time. If I can manage it, I'll get you another chapter today as well.
[Alexis]Shaking, the omega begs at my feet, her head touching the floor, her arms outstretched before her. "Please, Luna, I've been trying. Forgive me."I hate the sound of her sniveling but I fight the urge to kick her because she still hasn't given me the answers I need. She's been following Apple for over a week, and she hasn't come back with any juicy nuggets of information. "She hasn't spent any time at the office. I tried hiding out on the executive floor but she never comes in. It's almost as if she never leaves the pack house." "Sit up," I demand, snarling down at her. When she raises her face her makeup is dripping down her face, marring her appearance. I can tell she was once a beauty, but hard living and unfortunate luck are taking it away from her, one stressful day at a time. "Luna," she looks at my feet, unwilling to make eye contact. "Just give me another day, I can get what you need I..."Grabbing her face roughly in my hands I squeeze her cheeks. "So far you've tol
[Sylvester]She's never looked more beautiful than she does right now with her hair mussed and her lips bruised from my kisses.In that board room, facing our pack elders, she was glorious. Bright and shining like the sun, but not glowing, thank the Goddess. There was a faint warmth to her eyes that I'd never seen before, a violet shine that reminded me of someone I once loved, and my heart caught as a growl rose from her lips."He's MINE!" she had defended me, ready to take on the whole pack right before she threatened Alexis' life.It was amazing.So when we were still warm with our passion and her eyes were slowly returning to normal, I expected to hear something else pour from her lips. An impossibility that I've been wondering about since I first noticed her mark healing gold."There is something you need to know about me," she looks down at her hands nervously before meeting my gaze."She has a wolf," Rufus insists. "I can smell her. That's what's making her so protective. She is
[Apple] Sly looks at the two of them and his lips twist sardonically as he chews on his next comment, as if tasting it before spiting it at their feet. "Rodrigo, I see retirement is suiting you well," Sly snarls, his smirk growing as he notices the elderly alpha's discomfort. The old wolf growls, snapping his teeth. "Mind your manners and watch your tongue, pup. I'm ten times the alpha you'll ever be." He straightens up and I can imagine the strong Alpha he was once. He has the same charisma and aura of power that Sly has, and the remains of black in his wavy hair give him almost an uncanny resemblance. "Well, it's a good thing this isn't a competition then," Sly laughs harshly, the sound like glass crunching underfoot. "Because I'd hate to disrespect my elders." Sly turns his head and gives an appraising look at Alexis, studying her from her tall spiked heels to her tight dress and gaudy diamonds. Sly laughs as he takes my hand and kisses it. "I have a real treasure, Rodrigo.
[Apple]The air hangs heavy between us. What will we do now that both of us let our bodies rule our minds and place us in a potentially dangerous situation?"There are alphas who try for years to conceive an heir," he tries to comfort me, "I'm no different. Alexis and I tried for 5 years. Not a single time did it result in a pup." He sighs. "But she was not my fated mate.""No, she was not," I grimace, the thought of them together like this makes my stomach sour. I know I'm not his first love--she is. I also know he hasn't been waiting around for me. He's had several she-wolves in his bed. Rolling me towards him, he kisses the crinkled spot between my eyebrows where I've scrunched my nose. "Stop that," he admonishes. "Don't think about her or anyone else.""I can't help it sometimes," I admit. "I hate the idea of you with other wolves.""Other wolves," he quirks an eyebrow. "I've noticed you've been referring to yourself as a she-wolf lately...""Have I?" I haven't noticed a differenc
[Apple]"I don't remember my father," Sylvester begins. "I don't even remember his scent anymore. I was very young when my mother and I were forced from our home. I remember feeling confused, and scared, but I can't remember much about him except that he was tall and cast a deep shadow.""One day he sent my mother and I off on a trip. We were to stay at a little cottage until he collected us. Days passed and nothing changed. Then weeks. Eventually, someone came by, but it was only to deliver money, food, and apologies. He was keeping us for some reason," he shrugs. "Probably waiting to see if his True Luna gave him an heir. I'll never know," he sighs, "I can't ask my mom. She's gone. I don't even have a grave to visit. I don't know where Alpha Greystone put the bodies of rogues.""I met your father the same day I lost my mother. Back then, Alpha Greystone would do sweeping raids of rogue encampments, killing any who were not willing to join the Silver Crescent pack. He showed zero mer
[Alexis]For an elderly wolf, Rodrigo has an insatiable appetite for sex. As his Rental Luna, I knew going in that he'd want his carnal needs met, but I didn't expect him to have the libido of a much younger man.Nor the endowments of one. He's huge. The only other wolf I've slept with similarly impressive attributes was Sly. I didn't even care that he called me Grace, after his dead wife. It's been a long time since anyone's filled me like he has, so I'm willing to give him a bit of forgiveness.And yet, even though my pussy hums with satisfaction, I can't stop thinking about Sly and his little Snack. She pretends to be so innocent and sweet, but there is something not quite right about her, something she's keeping from the rest of us. "I bet she's really an omega," Alanna growls as I get out of bed and head towards the bathroom to clean myself. "She's using a scent enhancer. Maybe even a spell. Rufus wouldn't fall for a weak wolf like her." She huffs indignantly, my wolf's pride hur
[Apple]"Are you sure about this," I look down at Sly who is looking up at me, his beautiful blue eyes pleading for me to accept him. "I'm already your Luna. Do you really want to marry me? For me to be your Queen?""You are the only one I want, Apple. Now and forever," I feel the truth in his words all the way to my soul as his sincerity travels through our bond. "Before I met you, I thought I never wanted to be bound to another, but I already am bound to you. I always have been."He's so afraid. But I can feel he is also determined to take this path, to be brave enough for both of us."As for becoming my Queen, it is only natural since I'll be taking my place as Alpha King," his cheeks are flushed. There is more to this decision than he is telling me. "Please, Apple. Say you'll be my wife.""Yes, Sylvester," his grin widens as he raises to kiss me almost knocking me over with the force of his enthusiasm. "I'll marry you and I'll stay with you for as long as I live. If that means I ha
[Sylvester]The pearls are untangled from around our arms as the priestess proclaims. "You are now bound forever under the sacred light of Selene. May the Moon Goddess shine down on your union. May it be fruitful and full of love." My heart flutters and our bond snaps more firmly in place. "Mine," Our lips come together, sealing our bond and for one brief moment, everything stops as an electric current moves between us. I'd heard there was something special about the joining of two fated mates. I never dreamed I'd feel it myself. In my mind, I hear a whisper of a faraway voice say. "Blessed be.""Blessed be," I repeat and Apple opens her eyes as a new woman, a new wolf--Apple Sterling, My beautiful wife. Feeling a rush of confidence that maybe all of this will work out for the best, I lead my wife back to the elevator. "You are something truly special, Apple Sterling." She looks at me strangely at the name change but then slowly her quizzical smile grows into a genuine grin, "I g
