Alexander's POV...I checked my wristwatch, which was beginning to itch badly. It was 3am in the morning. I looked at the other occupants in the room; they had their heads hanging in between chairs, dozing off. Except for Derek, though, that little man looked wide awake and refreshed. I wanted to ask if he was a night owl.I had dozed off a bit too, but my mind was too preoccupied to let sleep rule over me."Bingo!" Derek yelled out, startling not just me but almost making the other three run off their chairs.They looked hilarious, warriors who couldn't hold themselves down, all in the name of sleep."What the hell, man!" Carlos whined in his sleepy voice. "Could you not yell like that? I almost sprained my neck just now.""Keep your tone leveled," Jason added.The both of them seemed really upset for being woken up unexpectedly. But, as usual, Caleb looked unfazed; he seemed so relaxed one would ask again if he ever dozed off a few minutes ago.Derek chewed on a fry. I had a feeling
Authors POV...Becca sat still in the dark, her thoughts hovering around the room. She had been woken up by her message notification. Checking the message, it turned out to be from Carlos, apologizing for not checking on her. He explained he had been very busy and asked how her day had gone.It felt good to have someone not so familiar check up on you. It had been a long while since she had such attention to herself. Since the death of her husband, her life had been built around the packhouse and Caleb.It makes her feel bad for herself; she wanted to be free from the feelings of constantly thinking about him and wallowing in self-pity. If things were different, she would definitely love to mingle with other people outside her circle.Lifting up her curtain, she stared outside. It was almost daybreak, and she didn't feel like getting out of bed just yet.Still facing the window, she wished she could be as brave as Edwina by admitting her feelings and looking for a way to free herself
Authors POV...There was an eerie feeling to the office as he sat down. Exhaustion settled on the tip of his shoulder, weighing all of him down. For two days straight, he hadn't slept well; being a pack leader isn't an easy task in the least.But he loves his job, and it earns him just about enough respect that he deserves, coupled with the fact that being at the service of his Homeland is an honor.Rubbing gently at his forehead, Caleb sighed into the quiet room. They had just returned from the prisoners' training zone, and he must admit they were tuned out just as fine and skilled as their warriors. There might be restraint as a result of being new to the game, but they did well in putting so much focus into the training.It made his mind a bit at ease about what was to become of the war approaching them; his mind wasn't so settled, though. Not hearing from his spy at the sizzlers pack bothers him very much; they have been too quiet, and he hoped they weren't trying to sneak up on t
Authors POV...Edwina chuckled at the sight of Becca, "you look so alive. Is there something you aren't telling me?" She teased.Becca rolled her eyes, "whatever is it do you mean?""Whatever it is that you think I meant."She blushed hard, "please don't tease me further, Luna."Smirking as they both stepped onto the stairs walking down to the door. "Since we had that tea this morning, you seem different.""Just thought to be happy and content with where I am now with life.""That's a good one, though. So, what exactly are you hiding in those bags?"Putting it behind her, "it's just some scones and muffins.""Hmmn, sounds like some nice brief date."Becca shrugged, not faltering in her admission. "I miss him, that's all. It's been long since I last saw him.""I love how bold you are. I should learn from you." Edwina noted as she stepped into the car.Shaking her head lightly, Becca got into the front seat next to the driver as they headed out of the packhouse. Edwina had decided to ta
Edwina's POV...I didn't know why but the moment I was a step closer to Xander's office, I adjusted my bra up a bit to show enough cleavage. A faint smile showed on my lips as I thought of how silly I had just acted.It had been two nights since I last set my eyes on him, and in some way, I missed him. I had woken up earlier today, feeling some reviving energy surge through me. So, even though I felt mortified about my confession to Becca last night, I decided to cut myself some slack and enjoy the fresh air of a new day. Becca had joined me, and we had a pleasant morning.The tea we had shared had gotten my energy so high up that I had gotten back to my room, hoping to get fucked. Only to remember that Xander was busy at work.I did not want my horniness to die off because I knew touching myself won't cut the deal to have a real dick sliding in and out of me and making me gasp for breath. The idea of taking food to them sounded pleasant enough to serve as an excuse to see him.Holdin
Alexander's POV......The moment she neared the premises, my wolf could smell her. When she did walk into the office, looking damn fine and sexy in the black fitted dress she had on. Thoughts of having her bent over the table crossed my mind. Only that my ass would be all out in the open if I did that. When Jason did leave, she leaned over to place the paper bag she carried on the center table. The sight of her cleavage made me almost choke on my spit.I could bet my whole life on it that Edwina was out to seduce me, it had been some long days away from her, and something told me she missed our moments together just like I did.All through the night that I had slept alone in that hotel room, I had jerked off twice at the thought of her wet dripping pussy with its juice all over my dick.I accepted the food offering, which I really did appreciate. But as I ate, other things ran through my mind; Edwina wasn't making it easy either. She was outrightly checking me out with no shame; proba
Authors POV.....Becca panted and huffed as she ran all the way down the stairs, ditching the elevator. She sat down on the third floor's staircase, her eyes burning from the hot tears that had pooled at the corner of her eyes.She wasn't supposed to care; seeing Caleb with Ramona shouldn't be a problem. After all, he had told her the very first time they had sex, and she knew it had been a constant thing. So why, then, was she feeling heartbroken and cheated?Becca wailed alongside her wolf as she tried to muffle her voice by covering her mouth with both of her hands. She wanted to bury herself deep inside the safety of her bed covers. Anger coursed through her, but she knew it wasn't her place to be angry. However, she wasn't angry at anyone but herself.She had known his stance from the beginning, and Caleb had been generous enough to not give her mixed signals about his emotions. But her silly heart kept conniving with her mind, trying to convince her to keep hoping. The thought o
Alexander's POV...Pulling her dress down to her thighs as she stepped out of the restroom, she looked more beautiful to me."I must admit my dick does wonders to your outlook." I teased."Don't get so full of yourself." Edwina snickered, walking towards the table to pack up.I still maintained my sitting position; I felt light. My burdens seemed so minimal after the sex that I could go unrelenting for the next days to come. That was a slight lie, though. I had no intention of missing having sex with Edwina for another two days.She was done packing up in no time. Then, sitting down, she leaned on the couch. I didn't want to ask, but I knew courtesy demands I show some concern."Heard Sonia sprained her leg. How is she doing now?"Raising her gaze to mine, she must have noticed how hard it was for me to ask about her sister's welfare. Her eyes were understanding; this is one of the reasons my heart kept fluttering at the sight of her."I haven't gone to see her today, but I will do s
