Dina’s POV
I hauled the laundry out of the alpha’s room and kicked the basket down the hall. Luckily, I’d gotten used to his dirty socks laying all over the floor--- and yes, the man may be an alpha, but he had terrible aim! I smirked, as my wolf quickly pushed inappropriate thoughts into my mind, all about how his aim probably wasn’t off ALL the time.
Horny wolf!
I shook my head and went into the bathroom, picking up and dropping all the used towels into the basket, before collecting my own laundry and throwing it in as well. I’d been living with Alpha Stone for just about 3 weeks now. To absolutely no one’s surprise, my brother was a no-show at the two-week mark, but true to his word, Alpha Stone didn’t kick me out. He wasn’t home much, but I did see him around breakfast and dinner. Something I very quickly found myself getting very attached to. I even found myself missing him when he went over to his Aunt’s house every Sunday. I tried to shake it off, but I couldn’t help feeling that they were taking away MY time with Alpha Stone.
I sighed. What was wrong with me? If the alpha knew, he would huff and puff and laugh so hard, he would blow the roof off the house. I wasn’t his type, I reminded myself and--- and how the hell did my stupid mind go in that direction?! I didn’t want the alpha – not that way anyway! – so I didn’t need to be his type!
Now I was simply frustrated.
Stupid Rita! And stupid Michael! Putting stupid things into my head and filling my imagination with things that didn't belong there---!
In frustration, I kicked the basket down the stairs--- and to my horror, it just barely missed a tall, red-haired figure at the bottom.
“Alpha!”
I gasped in horror as Alpha Stone sidestepped the basket that came tumbling down the stairs. But that didn’t save him from the content dropping all over him. He looked up at me and my heart sank when I met his angry gaze.
For a second, I’m pretty sure I died inside.
Epic fail…!
To save--- something! – I jumped into action, intending to help him. In my stupid/panic mode, I raced down the steps, reaching for the railing for support, in case my legs gave out on me--- because, of course, I'd forgotten all about the little fact that it was missing! My fingers gripped air and the next thing I knew, gravity was about to show me why it was the greatest force on earth. My heart dropped as I went flying off the side of the stairs.
Shit!
I braced myself for pain!
But it didn’t come...
Instead, I felt strong, warm arms wrap around me, as I was pulled into a solid chest. Stunned, I looked up and found myself looking straight into Alpha Stone’s dark and mysterious eyes. So perfectly blue, I couldn't look away...
I gulped and my heart rate picked up when I realized our proximity. I felt my body reacting in weird ways, being held this close to his warm, muscular frame. I could feel every dip and curve and--- oh, boy! This man was hard in all the right places!
“How are you even still alive?” Alpha Stone's baritone voice brought me out of whatever trance I’d landed myself in. My cheeks heated with embarrassment and for once I actually wished that I had crashed to the floor instead.
Less embarrassing...!
“Old habit?” I intended to jokingly reply - hoping it could save my dignity at least - but it barely came out as a weak squeal. And much to my mortification, Alpha Stone simply smirked, transforming his features into a very handsome and appealing sight. And that's when my wolf decided that this was the perfect time to remind me about my conversation with Rita. Her teasing words about me and the Alpha trickled into my head, making my heart shudder in my chest.
No!
Oh, you stupid, stupid wolf!
“You-you can... erm - put me down,” I stuttered, trying to wiggle myself out of his arms. But while I was strong, I was no match for the alpha wolf, meaning I wasn't going anywhere until the alpha himself decided so. His brows dripped down into a frown again, as he gently lowered me to my feet. I tried to remain calm and collected, but my legs suddenly felt like jello and my heart suddenly decided to act like there was a rock festival. My cheeks were flaming hot and when I tried to thank him, it came out as a nervous choked squeal. I quickly tried to cover it up with a small cough and straightened myself out, but his eyes on me didn't let up as they seemed to bore into me. I did my best to ignore it, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that I felt cold inside without the alpha’s arms around me...
Mentally shaking my head I forced my brain to start working properly again, and I took a look at the mess around me. Most of it was concentrated at the bottom of the stairs, with only what had been on top being scattered everywhere.
My dirty laundry...
Great, I mentally huffed, feeling my whole body heat up with humiliation. Talk about airing out your dirty laundry. And I practically threw it on Alpha Stone's head!
I took a deep breath and--- and that’s when I noticed that he had something on his head. I forgot how to breathe for a second and had to close my eyes, so as not to pass out.
Or just flat-out DIE right then and there!
“Erm, you-you have---something,” I mumbled, unsure if I should take it, or leave it be since I didn't want to get into his personal space again. He caught on quickly and took the garment off his head--- and I was absolutely mortified when I finally realized what it was. Because, OF COURSE, it couldn’t be a sock or at least a fucking pink bra!
NO!
It HAD to be my black laced thong!
I grabbed it out of his hands faster than the Flash could blink and tucked it behind my back, refusing to meet his gaze. But that didn’t stop me from feeling the smirk that crept across his lips.
"I didn't peg you for a lace-type of girl," he softly chuckled and--- and was it just me, or had his voice gone a little husky?
“Please don’t,” I begged, staring straight down at the floor, shifting uncomfortably on my feet. My lips pouted and I was fighting the urge to run away from there and never return. Why? Who in the universe had it out for me?
Please, I beg your forgiveness now, for whatever I did wrong…!
But instead of a full-blown shaming ritual, Alpha Stone instead leaned down to me and I could feel his hot breath against my skin. Involuntarily, my breath hitched and my heart skipped a beat, as goosebumps rose all over my skin…
“Submission suits you, little maid,” was literally all he said before he left and walked upstairs. Once he was out of sight, I finally felt that I could breathe again.
What the hell was that?!
Oh, goddess, let me die now, please?
As if someone had lit a fire on my ass, I quickly grabbed everything I’d kicked down the stairs and practically fled into the laundry room. I put the basket down and let my head rest against the cold countertop. Damn, how did my body become so hot? And so horny? I groaned.
Stupid Rita! And stupid wolf and stupid Alph---
“Excuse me?”
I let out an indignant screech and spun around. Alpha Stone was standing in the doorway, looking rather smug at my reaction. My heart was beating like a sledgehammer against my chest, and I was suddenly convinced that the man was out to kill me.
“You forgot one,” he simply said, holding up--- I gasped and felt my heart drop to the pit of my stomach. Of course! Again, it couldn’t be some dirty sock, a towel, or something ordinary like my yoga pants. It HAD to be one of my yellow and black polka dot bras!
My face lit up like a dragon’s fire, while I walked the few feet of shame over to him.
“Thanks,” I swallowed and peeled it off his hands as if it was poisonous. Stupid underwear! Couldn’t he at least find his own?!
“I know people expect to find such things lying around my house,” he smirked, looking like he was enjoying this WAY more than I was. Damn him! “But I like to keep my privacy private.”
“Yes, Alpha,” I pouted, not really noticing the smile that appeared on his face.
“I’ll be back later,” he stated and left.
"Have a nice day," I said without thinking--- and realized that I'd just acted like some 50’s housewife.
That’s it! I scolded myself. I need a doctor!
And for some reason, my stupid wolf pushed a picture of Alpha Stone in a lab coat into my head, asking where it hurt.
“OK, enough is enough!” I scolded my wolf out loud. “You spend too much time with Rita and her dirty mind! No more steamy romance for you, missy!” But unfortunately, that was probably just as much a punishment for me as for her….
Dina's POVAlthough today had been a complete disaster, I sort of liked laundry day. It was just filling the washing machine and the dryer, alternatively, and hanging everything else up. In between, I could study, which I did a lot these days. And I found myself being very productive…The doorbell brought me out of my thoughts. I frowned, wondering who it might be. Michael didn’t use the bell (the guy barely knew how to knock!) and the mailman just dropped off his package at the door. I think he was scared of the alpha, which really wasn’t all that surprising: Alpha Stone was one seriously scary guy…I opened it and, to my surprise, there was a young, pretty blond with huge blue eyes smiling brightly at me. She looked small and innocent but for some reason, had my wolf instantly on alert.“Hey!” she beamed and held out a hand to me. “I don’t think we’ve met. I’m Angela, Michael
WARNING: This chapter contains a scene of assault!Dina’s POVMy brain literally felt like mush and was about to drop out of my ears. I groaned and let my head rest against my art table. We were about 2/3 done with this project when Josh and Sherly – another one of my study buddies – suddenly started to argue about the assignment. I happened to agree with Josh on the direction we should take, which resulted in Sherly leaving in a rage. Now it was just me and Josh left and because he was an IT nerd and this was a practical project, I was basically stuck with all the work now.I sighed.We had finished the blueprints and now was just the modeling left. I had been using the school’s 3D printer (which was why Josh was a great help) for all the parts, but unfortunately, Sheril had left with the instructions and now she was refusing to pick up her phone. I just needed to make sure I had all the pieces be
WARNING: This chapter contains a scene of assault!Dina’s POV“You expect me to starve?” I snapped and turned to him, now simply ignoring the looks we were getting. Who was this guy and what was this asshole doing here?! “Seriously Josh. You’re acting very strange today.”“I don’t think it’s me, who’s acting strange,” he muttered, crossing his arms over his chest like a moping child. I rolled my eyes at him and finished my purchase. I didn't need this right now, but unfortunately for me, my life just couldn't ever be easy. Because like a spoiled brat, Josh refused to help me carry any of the grocery bags and stomped back to the car. I was honestly tempted to just drive him home and finish the project myself. I knew it meant I had to stay up late to finish it, but at this point, I almost preferred it to Josh’s weird mood.Luckily, by the time we reache
WARNING: This chapter contains a scene of assault!Dina’s POVWas Josh trying to mark me?!Over my dead body!I breathed in deeply, preparing to scream at the top of my lungs. But he efficiently cut me off by slamming his lips on mine. I gasped, but it came out as a muffled moan; almost encouraging him to continue. Now panic really sat in. I tried to turn my face away and push him off, by kicking my legs.“JOSH, STOP IT!” I yelled between wet slipping kisses, while I kicked and screamed. Mentally, I cursed the sexist idiot who gave male werewolves their unbudgeable bodies. Because try as I might, I was trapped underneath him; not even my unusual strength could get him off. As if something had possessed him, Josh quickly grabbed both of my wrists with one hand and held them down. He continued to kiss my skin, nibbling the spot, where my mate would mark me, while his other hand moved lower,
Dina’s POVI don’t know why, but my wolf somehow decided that this was the perfect time to remind me of all the erotic visions of this situation that Rita had put into my head. I gulped, yet my mouth remained dry as a dessert. My heart felt like it was trying to break my ribs and a shiver crept down my spine. And worst of all? It wasn’t a bad kind of shiver…“If you punish me,” I somehow managed to whisper. “Dinner will be late.”His expression changed from mischievous to confused in a matter of seconds. His eyes went wide and his brows furrowed. I don’t think he expected that and, to be honest, as for excuses went, that was a rather lame one…“Oh, what do I do?” he replied sarcastically. “Dinner or punish you?”I shrugged, hoping he’d go for the former. He just sighed and shook his head, before walking over to me. His dark eyes trailed over
Dina's POVIf memory served me right, he hadn’t hit Josh, so he must have gotten those before he rescued me.“You need some ice for that?” I offered while wondering what had happened. Without waiting for an answer, I took the towel and icebag out of his hand, and as carefully as I could, I wrapped it around his hand.“It’ll heal,” he gruffly grunted and tried to shake me off. Mentally, I rolled my eyes at him."Hold still, you big baby," I huffed and grabbed his hand again, carefully avoiding putting too much pressure on it. This time he let me, despite the displeased growl that made his chest vibrate.“What happened?” I asked to distract him. I reached for the other hand and carefully gave it the same treatment I'd given the other one. I knew he'd heal in no time, but there was no need for him to be in pain while it happened.Macho alpha bullshit...“Tres
Dina’s POV“Dina!”I turned around and saw Alpha Stone leaning against the doorway to his office. The white tee clung to his body perfectly, and his jeans hung loosely around his hips.Goddess, he looked heavenly…“Yes, alpha?” I replied and tried to stop myself from ogling him. But my wolf kept encouraging me to eye-rape our alpha, which made that mission rather impossible. He looked so---He didn’t reply but motioned for me to follow him into his office. But instead of sitting down, he stood by his desk with that irresistible smirk of his. For a second, I wondered if I was in some kind of trouble – or if he’d changed his mind about last night and had decided to punish me. However, to my surprise, he pointed to the artwork I’d made on his wall.It was a small collection of stick figures gathered around a lake, that was the huge patch. On the patch were du
Levi’s POVI shut off the alarm but remained in bed for some reason. Usually, my wolf wasn’t a morning wolf--- or ‘any time of day’-wolf actually. My mornings usually started with me having to fight him for control because he wanted to kill the alarm – literally!But not this morning...He was quiet.And for once, I actually felt well-rested. And I’d even slept well.I felt amazing!And it worried me.Was my wolf planning something?I took a deep breath and let my mind wander…I lost control of my wolf yesterday. When I'd seen that son of a bitch on top of Dina, I'd lost it! My wolf surged forward and ripped him off her before I even had a chance to fight him. But I didn’t go on a killing spree like usual. Hell, I hadn't even killed the fucker who'd attacked her. Instead, my wolf had been focused on her. I'd seen the way she gasped for air and I r
Levi's POVWe ran towards our borders and within seconds he picked up a couple of rogues. He quickly turned his anger on them and hunted them down. I didn’t even try to hold him back. Hell, I couldn't even if I wanted to. In his blood-lusted state, there was nothing I could do to control him. He tore through them like a savage animal, but once he was done, he’d finally calmed down enough for me to take over and shifted back.We were quiet for a moment.Usually, when my wolf went on a rampage like this one, I would give him hell after. I hated him for being the monster he was, but---Not tonight…Tonight this was on me just as much as him. I hadn't even tried to fight him but had relished the release of his outrage. Because no matter what, I'd felt every bit as angry, frustrated, and scared as he was. I didn't understand it. And part of me feared that more than anything...I waited until my breathi
Levi’s POVI hate negotiating treaties!It’s not like the Black Lunar Pack needed them. My pack was strong in itself and I really didn’t get the point of “exchanging training techniques”. My Deltas had that down to the tooth and our Fighters and Elites were the best in the land, even beating the Royal Pack at the last "friendly" competition. I didn’t need their stupid fighters to teach my pack anything!The Black Lunar Pack didn’t need anyone else!But I wasn’t stupid.I knew that alliance meant no fighting and no fighting meant no wars or hostile takeovers. Most of the time anyway! So, I played my part in the stupid meeting with the Council nagging and bickering me to accept deal after deal.As if I was born yesterday…I knew Black Lunar was growing more powerful than anyone liked - especially the Royal Pack. I’d already expanded
Dina's POVMy heart dropped to the pit of my guts and suddenly I felt like throwing up. I hadn’t seen him in over two weeks and, honestly, I could do for another year without seeing his sorry ass.“What do you want?” I asked harshly while trying to fight every instinct in my body that screamed bloody murder. I was terrified but I refused to let fear control me. Not that anyone could blame me - I think. The last time I saw him, he’d tried to rape me. I wanted to move closer to Rita, but instead, I stood tall, glaring at him with everything I had. I was not going to let him see how he’d hurt me. I would never give him, Dylan, or any other man out there the pleasure of thinking they broke me.I would never give in…“I just---wanted to---,” he stuttered and nervously scratched the back of his neck. That was when I noticed that he looked like someone had used him as a chew toy and his skin looke
Dina’s POV“You and Michael?” I exclaimed, while my best friend was giggling like a hyena. My jaw was still located on the floor somewhere, as my best friend delivered the news of the century. I mean, sure, I knew they were dating. The guy had practically moved onto campus since I gave him her number and he was always with her whenever I was around. Like, literally, I saw him more than I saw the alpha. They spent every waking moment together and I could see how much she cared about him. Hell, she was falling for him faster than I usually cheated on my diet. But going from that to---MATES!Apparently, Michael had asked her to be his mate and she’d said yes. After less than two months of dating. That was a big step for wolves - really BIG! Bigger than getting married for humans. Luckily for werewolves, commitment really wasn’t a problem. We were social animals, more than humans ever could understand
Levi's POV“Her brother?” Mick asked again, just as he got another text.My wolf growled.“That wouldn't surprise me,” I shrugged, trying not to let him see me gritting my teeth. Dylan’s two weeks had long since passed and just as Dina predicted, he didn’t show up. And none of my trackers were able to find even a shred of evidence that he was still alive. Not that I minded. I liked having his sister as a maid. And that wasn’t going to change any time soon. One, because if she was a target, I could keep her safe by keeping her close by. And second, the second Dylan stepped foot back into my territory, I was going to kill him for what he'd done to his sister. My wolf growled in agreement.What kind of man hits a woman?!And his younger sister at that? He was supposed to take care of her but instead---“Have you tried asking her? Perhaps she knows something?” Mick suggested
Levi’s POVShrek!That’s it!She reminded me of that damn cat in that Shrek cartoon! The way she’d always pouted her red lips and made those huge emerald green puppy eyes sparkle in the light. Making her look so innocent and sweet, even my beast had a hard time being mad at her.I groaned in annoyance and leaned back in my chair, knowing I had better things to do than to fantasize about my maid. That girl could make kings grovel at her feet - including yours truly! - and she didn’t even know it. She was so pure and innocent, yet didn't come across as naive or childish. she was just genuinely a really kind and sweet person, with no amount of sass lacking.I tripped my pen repeatedly against my desk, growling more and more annoyed with myself. But no matter how desperately I tried to push her out of my mind, the second thought that entered my mind was about her as well. I felt like she had me whipped
Levi's POV“Don’t fuss about it," I tried. "That’s how I wake up every morning.”She spun around so fast, I think that even the air around her got whiplash. Her face was red as hell and her look could kill ordinary men.I gulped.OK, so--- not my best move? “You know it’s rude to point it out, right?” she barked, narrowing her eyes at me. And while I was the alpha in this situation and had several inches on the raven-haired beauty, I felt about an inch tall all of a sudden.“I was trying to cheer you up,” I confessed, not feeling at all too alpha-ly right then. And all because of a she-wolf? And no comments from my wolf?! Other than the huge grin on his face, hoping she’d been dreaming about us?What was wrong with that dog lately?!“Comparing your morning wood with a girl's wet dream, isn’t cheering her up,” Dina s
