Aláine's Point of ViewMy heart was melting. I thought this was the most romantic gesture ever. I knew I was falling in love, which was entirely new territory for me. If I were indeed in love with him, I would have to accept being a werewolf. The question was, would I be willing to do that? Admittedly, Kristof's Lycan and wolf aspects were beautiful. I would have those aspects too. Would they look like his or different?"I wasn't scared of your Lycan because I know you would never hurt me," I said. "In fact, I thought your Lycan was gorgeous."I put my hand on his jaw, using my thumb to caress his jawline. I could feel tingling through my fingers and wondered if Kristof could feel them as well. His smouldering look answered that, and I felt heat pooling between my legs."Oh my God!" I thought when he sniffed the air. "He can tell I'm aroused."He confirmed that for me when he smirked. I decided to take my mind off that by thinking of something else.Then it occurred to me, and I aske
Zara's Point of View It was nice joining Kristof and Aláine for their picnic. I felt like one of the family, or pack, since my talk with Noah last night. Although, I still don't know what I'll do if Noah finds his fated mate. That saddens me a lot. I really like him, and I've never felt that way about someone before. When he touches me, it is like my body is alive, like he gives little electric shocks. Damn this sexual attraction. "Hey, Aláine," I said as she entered the lounge. "Hi, Zara. It was great you joined us for our picnic." "So, were you looking for me?" I asked. "You have that look on your face." "You know me so well," Aláine replied before sighing. "I want to take my relationship with Kristof to the next step, but I'm nervous." "Oh, hun, you have nothing to be nervous about. He's going to love you no matter what," I told her. I could see that she was totally out of her comfort zone. She obviously trusted Kristof enough to go this far this fast. Noah had already expla
Aláine's Point of ViewAfter dinner, while Kristof was cleaning up the kitchen with Frederic, I went to talk to Zara, and then went upstairs to put my plan into motion. Once dressed, I sat down next to Axel to give him some attention. I didn't want him interrupting us tonight. I wondered briefly if I should put him somewhere else. I wasn’t sure. I had never brought anyone home to my bed, so had never thought about this before. Axel seemed happy with the pats. Since he was still recuperating, he wasn’t as bouncy as he usually was.You're such a good boy, Axel," I said. His tail wagged enthusiastically, but he still remained seated on his bed.Each passing minute made me more and more anxious. What if he were able to sense my anxiousness? He probably had extraordinary werewolf senses to detect my emotions. This was not helping me relax. I ended up putting the dressing gown on because I was so nervous."Hey, my sweetness, are you all right?" Kristof asked, giving me a fright."Shit, don
Kristof's Point of View After washing the dishes, I popped into the lounge area to find Aláine. "Have you seen Aláine," I asked Zara. "I think she went upstairs to see Axel," she replied. I thanked her and then took the stairs two at a time. I wanted to spend time cuddling my mate. Even just touching and kissing her sent electrical pulses down my body. I could only imagine what sex would be like. Even just the thought of it was enough to tighten my jeans. "Patience!," I told myself. "It will all work out in the end." I couldn't believe it. Aláine wasn't just going to have sex with me; she was ultimately accepting me as her mate. My wolf and Lycan were howling with excitement, but I breathed deeply to control them. I could tell she was nervous, and I didn't want to rush our first time together. I know she isn't as experienced as me, and I want it to be perfect for her. She stopped kissing me to watch her hands as they explored my chest and abdomen. When she bit her bottom lip, I
Aláine's Point of View When Kristof placed his lips on my ear and whispered, he sent shivers down my spine. First of all, he was barely touching them, and then his words… I couldn't believe what he said. He wanted me to scream his name over and over again. It was probably going to happen. Each touch of his lips, tongue, teeth or hands set my body on fire. I was burning with lust for him. I could feel the pressure move to my swollen core, and then he started licking and sucking my clit. Alternating between licking and sucking, I moaned and whimpered in pleasure. A pleasure so exquisite that I almost forgot to breathe. Then he put one finger inside me and I could feel my walls clench tightly around it. Soon, he added another finger and moved it in and out. Finally he added a third. What began as a small wave grew to a tsunami as I orgasmed. I could not be silent as hard as I tried and instead cried out his name, "Kristof! Oh! Oh! My! God!" "My Goddess," he growled, coming back up
Kristof's Point of View"I could stay like this forever," Aláine breathed with a sigh of contentment.I hadn't withdrawn but just adjusted my weight so I wouldn't crush her. I wanted to remain inside her for as long as I could. It felt as if she were made for me, and I had never felt this way with anyone else, just her. This was the mate bond in action, ensuring that sex and love would never be as exquisite with anyone else. I knew that after this, I would never desire anyone else or want another woman sharing my bed or life. Thinking about how tight she was around me and how I reacted to her juices flowing over me when she got aroused, I started getting hard again. And then there was her scent.I revelled in her unique scent mixed with mine. Her scent drew me to her initially so that I could recognise her as my mate. Each mate had one. I wondered what my scent would smell like to her once she transformed into a werewolf."Why didn't you tell me you were a virgin?" I asked."I didn'
Aláine's Point of ViewWhen Kristof marked me where my neck and shoulder meet, there was a sharp acute pain similar to when he first thrust inside me. This was quickly followed by this incredibly intense pleasure. I had never known such ecstasy as when he made me orgasm the first time. With the second and third times, the intensity just increased. I could never get tired of that. He gently lowered me to the ground, withdrawing from me. It created an emptiness, and I instantly missed the pleasurable pressure he had created. I had to grab hold of his shoulders for my legs were wobbly and weak. As I slowly walked (if you could call it that) the short distance to the shower, I could feel some bruising on my still swollen sex."Are you okay, my love?" he asked, standing close behind me, holding me around my waist, and breathing on my neck and ear.My breath hitched, "Barely. It has been used in a completely new way, but I won't be if you keep doing that.""When I talk you out for dinner t
Kristof's Point of View Aláine and I stood there after I had marked her, just holding her in my arms. I could smell her arousal and was just as turned on as her. Unfortunately, she was still human at this stage, and I might hurt her if we went at it again straight away. I didn't want to hurt her in any way. She was the most precious thing in the world right now, so I held off doing anything else. Letting my mind wander for a little, I stared into her eyes. Aláine had not only given herself to me in terms of her body, but she had given herself to the mating bond. She had allowed me to mark her and claim her. In about a week or so, there would be a full moon, and we would be celebrating. Considering it was September, it would be the Harvest Moon. Our celebrations would be raucous and would end in a pack run. I would have to get Noah or one of the pack Elders to run that since I would be with Aláine. On the night of her first shift, there was no way that I would leave her side that n
Unknown's Point of View I finally found Viktor holed up in a small cabin in the woods. It had obviously seen better days. Any paint had long since flaked away, and the gardens were overgrown. I walked up the path to knock on the equally run-down door. "Ahhh, Viktor," I said, "The man I have been looking for." "And what do I owe the pleasure, Mr...?" Viktor replied. "Who I am is of no matter at this moment," I stated. "I want to know what you intend to do with the woman, Aláine?" I watched that pathetic, snivelling werewolf, Viktor. He was cowering before me, although he neither knew who nor what I was. When I mentioned the Aláine woman, I could see the indecision on Viktor's face. "She is my Luna!" he screamed at me. "No, she is not!" I snapped back at him. "She belongs to another. She never belonged to you and never will." The frustration on his face was sweet. God, I hated werewolves. Viktor walked around his little cabin. The inside was similarly as run-down as the outside
Aláine's Point of View Tomorrow night was the first full moon after my shift. Kristof and I were to be mated in front of our pack. During the two weeks, Kristof had taken me into their little township to meet many of the pack members. It was nerve-wracking, but it gave me a sense of purpose too. I was finally meeting all the people Kristof was responsible for and, by extension, for whom I would be responsible. Being a Luna was a considerable responsibility. Fate had put me in that position, so I was going to make sure I didn't let Kristof or our pack down. My guards, Daniel and Jake, had taken Zara and me into the city to purchase a gown. I chose a lovely cream lace dress with spaghetti straps. My favourite style. It hugged the curves in my body but was also elegant. There was a slight flair from the knees, ending halfway down the calves at the front. At the back, it reached my shoes at the bottom. It was a dress that said wedding without actually saying it. Just perfect. Initially
Aláine's Point of View My life consisted of walking with Kristof and Axel in the morning, having breakfast then training with Michel, Daniel and Jake. After lunch, I would spend hours cooped up with Noah learning how to do the accounts. Then I would have time to spend with Zara and Callie before dinner. Evenings were spent doing another kind of exercise with Kristof. I had never been so busy or so tired, but I can't say I hated it. During our nighttime trysts, Kristof broached the subject of a Luna Celebration where we would be officially mated in front of the pack. I would then be inaugurated as Luna officially. This was a big thing as far as the pack were concerned. They hadn't had a Luna in years, not even with the last Alpha. When the last Alpha stepped down, Kristof stepped up to take his place. He had been groomed to take over the position as the previous Alpha had no offspring. This was unusual, but the Alpha was gay, and neither he nor his mate wanted children. They could ha
Aláine's Point of View The following morning, we took Axel for a run before breakfast. It was good to see that he could run again and loved running throughout the forest. I didn't need to run with him, as he would take off and return often. It also gave me a chance to have quality time with Kristof, which didn't involve sex. When we sat for breakfast, Kristof explained that Michel would take Daniel, Jake and me for training. We would train together, so I could get used to their fighting style. Kristof made it quite clear that the purpose of the exercise was self-defence, and it would be up to my guards to keep me safe. All four of us first went for a run in wolf form around the forest as a warm-up. Michel decided it would be preferable to learn to fight in human form while only practising running in wolf form. I needed to be comfortable as a wolf before learning to fight like one. Once I was warmed up, Michel went over the basic principles of hand-to-hand combat. The first principl
Aláine's Point of View Kristof and I arrived home from the police station and went straight to his office. Noah was already there working. "Afternoon, Noah," said Kristof. "Afternoon," I echoed, smiling. "Alpha, Luna, what do you need?" Noah asked. "I need you to run Aláine through the accounts and coach her through taking over from you," Kristof replied. "I think this is an area that the Luna can oversee under your guidance at first." "Brilliant," smirked Noah. "I would be happy to show you the ropes." Noah and I spent the next two hours going over accounts. I knew that Kristof owned quite a few businesses under the name of Kristof Blackwolf. His construction company, Blackwolf Industries, was doing exceptionally well in the human world. The same company was constructing the new guard house and family units. This company had an actual accounting firm running the books, but it was overseen by Noah and now me. A certain percentage of the net profits were funnelled into the pack a
Aláine's Point of View When that arsehole trafficker, Sunny Chan, grabbed me, I was scared. That pissed me off because after turning, I managed to scare Viktor. I shouldn't have been scared of a stupid human, but I was, and I know for a fact that Kristof would have felt it. I felt his anger in response to it. I smelt and heard Samson as he snuck into the interrogation room. As soon as he grappled Sunny, I made my move to get out of his hold. Luckily it wasn't hard. I could have gotten out of it, but then I didn't want to show how strong I actually was. Grrr. How the hell do werewolves figure this shit out? Before walking out of the room, I told the detective I was finished here. He just nodded. Even the lawyer managed to look contrite. So he should. After this, it would be hard for his client to come out of this without some form of penalty. Maybe if he does, I could do something about it. I could sense that Kristof was standing outside of the room. It was pretty obvious the direct
Kristof's Point of View Samson knocked on the door, and one of the detectives opened the door and greeted us. He was definitely a human, so I knew there was no way I could force the issue of letting me stay in the interrogation room with Aláine. When she went in, Samson motioned me to come to the next room, where there was a one-way mirror I could look through. "Sorry, Alpha, I couldn't let you stay in the room with Luna, even if the Chief allowed you," he apologised. "The lawyer for this arsehole would have a field day, and we can't let him walk. He is trafficking women for sex." Damn! Humans were disgusting at times. I severely doubted anyone in our community would do such a thing, though I wasn't sure about Vampires. They needed to get blood somehow, and I had heard stories. "At least this way, we can keep an eye on Luna without alerting anyone," Samson continued. My attention moved from Samson to the perp. So this guy was a pimp, but just on a grand scale. He was wearing a sui
Kristof's Point of View So far, today has been a wonderful day. Aláine and I started with our first run as mates, then ended with incredible sex. It was time to take the party inside. As much as I enjoy making love to her outside, we have a comfortable bedroom to continue it. Cameras can be on outside to pick up any disturbance, and the bedroom is soundproofed. "Let's get some food," I said in answer to Aláine's grumbling tummy. "I feel like all I ever do is eat," she said embarrassingly. "I did tell you we burn more calories than humans, and we have not only been for a run but also had fantastic sex. That has burned off quite a few." I responded. "Lead the way," she declared, laughing. "Please feed me before I faint from hunger." "At your service, my lady. I'll fill your stomach first, and then I'll fill other things," I smiled and jiggled my eyebrows suggestively, leading her toward the kitchen. "Pasta sound good?" I asked while I rummaged through the fridge. "Sure," said Alá
Aláine's Point of View Over the next three days, we practised shifting between human and wolf, human and Lycan, wolf and Lycan, and back again. My shifting time was much faster, although Kristof was incredibly fast at shifting forms. He'd had many years of practice, and it showed. At least it didn't hurt as badly. Unfortunately, the pain hadn't entirely diminished. I had my walking and running down pat. My tail was acting like a rudder, and I could run and turn without falling over. Kristof said I was a natural at it. I thought my progress was due to being turned as an adult. While it took wolf-born children much longer, knowing the science behind it helped. Now we were going for my first official run with my mate. I would be handing over the reins to Calliope, and Kristof would allow Connery to have control during this time. Kristof was very explicit with Calliope and Connery that this was a run only, not a mating. "Why?" I asked. "What's the difference?" "If our wolves mate, the
