I sat patiently waiting now for Jaxon to update me with what he had overheard. Was it a bit inappropriate that he had been listening in? Yes. But, curiosity had got the better of me, and I was desperate now to know what had been said, so it was going to be a case of letting that case slide for now.

But, just as Jaxon was about to enlighten us with the information he had overheard, he had received a phone call, and we had been placed on hold. Nothing like bad timing, and nothing like putting me on edge! My mind was working overtime with the possibilities of what he may have overheard that he felt I needed to know so urgently that it would require him to call me on the way to a business meeting; and quite honestly, none of the potential scenarios my frazzled, caffeinated brain could conjure up were good.

“What were the chances Jax would bump into her?” Levi asked with a smile. Maybe even a little smugness behind his smile. “You think she would have recognized him after spending so long

    I had not been able to shake the fact that it was likely Mason’s friend who had been standing right behind Tavi and me in the queue in the coffee shop, and more than likely listening in to our conversation. I am sure that was who he was. I had thought I recognized his face the moment he walked into the coffee shop. But, while his face looked vaguely familiar, I had been unable to place it, because the night I had seen him my main focus had been Mason. But, the more I thought of it, I was sure it was Mason's friend. And, I was more and more sure he had heard more than I would have wanted him to. No, I think it was almost a certainty that he was listening in, considering he almost choked at Tavi's inappropriateness.My mind had been distracted all the way through my shift, unable to help myself but ponder whether his friend would have told Mason what he had heard. And when that wasn’t on my mind, my eyes were back and forth to the door, wondering why Mason hadn’t decided to come and vi

    That heavy grip upon my arm pulled me back, and with a sinking feeling in the pit of my stomach I raised my gaze to meet the eyes I had hoped never to see again. “I thought it was you.” his voice was angry. "The fact you were walking as fast as those pretty little feet could carry you was another giveaway."His voice was every bit as cold and sadistic as I remembered. He hadn't changed, not that I would have expected him to have. And my whole body trembled in fear. I had thought I had got away from him. I was hours away from our home pack, and had traveled from town to town over the months since leaving him in a bid to avoid his detection. But, it seemed like my worst nightmare had finally found me.“Dalton…” I began, my voice trembling, instantly indicating my fear, causing him to smirk. As always, he was getting a kick out of my terror. Sick fucker that he was. He had loved every moment of my fear since the initial effects of the matebond had worn off. I could feel the weight of hi

    Work has proved completely pointless today. Paper work was difficult when nothing registered within my mind. I did as much as I could before I headed to the gym to do some training, and that was where I spent the majority of my day, completely losing track of time. Pushing myself with the weights and exercising to the point of pain, all until my phone began to ring unexpectedly, and it brought me back to reality.“Hello?”“Mase.” Jaxon’s dulcet tones were urgent. “Meet me at the diner on the main highway, yeah?”I was more than a little confused. There had been no hello, no explanation. “Is that all I get? Are you not going to tell me why?” I asked.“Nope. It is urgent and I need your help. Please. Ta.” And with that my friend and pack Gamma had hung up. The little fucker. But, he knew that I would not ignore his call, and his apparent request for help. So, I headed for a quick shower, needing to get out of the extremely sweaty clothes I was currently wearing. My mind worked overtime

    Walking through that diner seemed to take an eternity, despite in reality it being a short distance. My feet felt like lead balls at the bottom of my legs, which made no sense when I desperately wanted to reach Gianna. See her... and more importantly discover why Jaxon was with her. Levi and I reached the table, sitting snugly inside one of the cozy little booths, and Jaxon smiled up at us.“Ah, you brought company?” he joked with a grin. That ever familiar grin of my friend that told me he was at ease with the whole situation. He obviously saw this as a comfortable situation, so why could I not decipher what the fuck was going on?“So did you.” I added with a knowing look.‘You will thank me shortly when I explain.’ Jaxon quickly mindlinked, and I was suddenly intrigued. There is clearly more to this situation than I am aware of. My mind instantly headed to her boss at the club… had he mistreated her and Jaxon helped her? But that would have meant that Jaxon was in there… considering

    I sat in the center of the three men, relieved to be safe. I have to say I am feeling more protected than I have done in a long time. Which is beyond ridiculous when the only reason I am here is simply because Jaxon had saved me from Dalton. Dalton had found me… no, he had previously found me, and he had obviously chosen not to believe Tavi when she told him I had left. So, maybe it was more a case of he had come back for me...But, for whatever reason, these three men, complete strangers really, had chosen to try to help me. They had come together to ensure Dalton could not hurt me... or at least not today. The thing was, the moment they left me, I would be back to being as vulnerable as I was before. And, I didn't doubt for a moment that Dalton would be back.My mind had been in such a panic the whole journey to the diner with Jaxon. He had been so sweet, making polite conversation to try to put me at ease. Telling me of his upcoming wedding, and also adding in tales of Mason in an

    I could see a faraway expression within Gianna’s eyes telling me her mind was likely distracted. Whether it was distracted by the things we spoke of, or the things that had occurred earlier, that, I didn't know. She seemed reluctant to tell us too much, and it bothered me. How was I supposed to help her... protect her, if she shut me out? I felt I needed to help her. Yet when I tried to reach out and ask if she was okay, she seemed distant. Like she was not willing to share more than she already had. But, I tried once more...“You know we could help you?” I suggested. I looked towards her, hoping she would see that accepting our help might be for the best. I hoped she felt safe within our presence. We could so easily keep her safe if she would allow us to. If Jaxon hadn’t been passing by tonight, I dread to think what could have happened. What that monster of an ex could have done to her…Instead, Gianna seemed to avoid my gaze. Like she doesn’t want to look at me. Or, maybe she simp

    I watched as Gianna stepped into the car. I could see she was looking tired, and she looked pre-occupied, not that I could blame her, she probably had a million and one things on her mind right now. I hoped that our ride back to her house might give her the chance to open up to me a little. Admittedly, she hasn't said too much so far, but I hoped, with a little encouragement, she may...Jaxon and Levi wandered over to Jaxon’s car, talking among themselves. I could only imagine the conversation they would be having about all of this. I knew they thought we needed to do more. I thought that too, but in truth, I didn't know what to do in order to do that... My mind was in confusion as to how we would be able to help; especially when she was refusing the offer of assistance. But, my gut was telling me that this girl needed my protection, and my wolf was pushing for the same, and he was rarely wrong.‘You aren’t just going to give up on her like she is telling you to, are you dude?’ Jaxon l

    The drive from the diner to town seemed to take a lifetime. I desperately wanted to get home and hide away. I was debating whether to take a few days away from work now, to plan and arrange my move as best I could with the money I already had. Time seemed to have slowed as we traveled along the road back towards town. I was sure it did not take this long earlier when I had traveled with Jaxon, though that journey had been filled with his polite and easy conversation. I previously enjoyed Mason’s company, but right now I just wanted to get away. I had already said too much, and him irritating me had only made me say more.“Where do you live?” Mason asked, his voice seemed calm. I wish I could say I felt as relaxed as he sounded…“Why do you need to know where I live?” I snapped, so on edge, and questioning every little thing he was asking me.A small smirk played upon his lips as he focused upon driving. “Well, considering I am meant to be driving you home, Gianna, knowing where you l

    1 week later.I looked down at the dark-haired bundle of joy sleeping within my arms. He was beautiful. So perfect. And he was ours. Zane, our gorgeous little boy. A spitting image of his Daddy. For so many years I had resigned myself to the idea of never having children, yet here I was holding my very own son. A son I had carried. A son made with love. And I truly felt blessed.I placed a tender kiss upon his head, and he snuggled deeper into my embrace, making me smile. I look back on everything now, and can't help but wonder, perhaps I had to go through the hell that I did to find my little piece of heaven. Had I not been through all I did with Dalton, then I would never have found myself working at Midnight Moods, and I would never have met Mason. I would not have had my heart won over by his charm and his sweetness, not to mention his handsomeness... and I would never have found myself a part of this wonderful pack. Nor would I have the family I had so desperately craved. I have

    1 year Later I rolled over in bed to see my beautiful mate, smiling as I looked at her sleeping. A sight I would never tire of waking up to. Who would have thought all that pain I went through in the betrayal of my fated matebond, would, in the end, bring me the most perfect of chosen mates? The mate I think I was meant to be with. For the feelings I have for Gianna far outweigh anything I ever felt for Brooke in a way I cannot explain. The way she brings happiness and contentment to both me and my wolf is something I hadn't experienced before, and it is something I do not want to lose.Our closeness had only developed further in her time within my pack; and the matebond strengthened to one I believed was indestructable. She was everything I could hope for in a mate, and a Luna. Walking into the bar that night, albeit reluctantly, seemed like it may have been the best decision of my life; because it meant I met Gianna. It brought me the greatest blessing in my life, even if I had to

    Gianna, on top of me, was unexpected, but heavenly. Her body moved with such grace as she took every inch of me, deeper and harder. The pleasure was evident on her face. And I got a front row view…The feel of her tight pussy around me as she moved harder and faster was sending my body into meltdown. The way her breasts bounced with her movements had me mesmerized. My hands sat upon her hips, as I began to thrust to meet her, allowing me to go deeper inside of her.And the pleasurable moans that came from Gianna told me she liked that. I liked being able to turn her on. And having her on top, seeing this view was something else. I was enjoying exploring all the ways we could enjoy one another, and could not wait to see what was to come…Gianna began to move a little harder, increasing the pressure with which she moved, her breathing becoming more erratic, telling me she had to be close again. I could not help but smile. I moved my finger to her clit once more, knowing this was what ha

    Feeling myself inside of Gianna was everything I had imagined and more... and jeez had I been thinking of it alot lately... sometimes without even meaning to as well. But actually being with her? Well, it was something else. So much more than I could have imagined. I wanted this forever. Her touch sent me to places I don’t think I have ever been. And the look of her body coming apart under my touch, and feeling her pussy tightening around my cock had tipped me to the point of no return.Pleasure surged through me. My whole body trembled as I reached my release. The heavy gasps of Gianna’s breathing, matched by my own, as I felt Echo pushing forward, I could feel my canine’s elongating. God-damn, my wolf! He wanted to do this now. He did not care for taking our time and not rushing her.I wanted it too, but I didn’t want to push Gianna. Didn’t want to pressure her. Yet, to my surprise, as I looked down at her, she was offering me her neck…I was not about to rush this yet though. I had

    The moment I had whispered those words against Mason’s lips, I felt him smile, and he lifted me as he stood, his hands resting under my butt, before he placed me softly in the center of the bed. He wasted no time in removing his pants. Releasing his already hard cock from the restraints of the fabric that had been holding it back.Mason now stood in front of me naked, and my eyes could not help but travel over his body… his toned, perfect body… I was not going to be disappointed, I knew that much. And as I brought my eyes back to his, he was smiling. “Like what you see?” he teased, as he knelt himself on the bed, parting my legs swiftly with his hand. My whole body trembled with anticipation. I think, little did he know, I had waited for this moment since that first kiss we had shared...Already my heart was pounding, and the wetness increasing between my legs, as Mason’s fingers found their way there once more. His eyes didn’t leave mine as he teased, seeming to like watching the re

    Seeing Gianna fall apart at my touch, looking so vulnerable… giving herself to me so fully did something to me. And as I looked down at her, I was unable to hold back my words. But the shocked expression upon her face told me I may have said too much. Had I said too much too soon?Shit… things had been going perfectly. We had been enjoying being with one another. And now I think I may have just ruined the moment. My heart pounded heavily in my chest as I looked at the woman laying in front of me. The woman I was certain I was falling for, if I hadn't already fallen for her... I think I fucked up.‘No shit Sherlock.’ Echo muttered. Wow, even my wolf was in a mood with me. And he was all for marking her not that long ago! Now he was acting like I was the crazy fool for asking if I could make her mine?!Gianna lay looking at me, her chest rising and falling so rapidly as her eyelashes fluttered nervously. Fuck. Fuck. Fuckity. Fuck. I messed up. And I don't even know how to fix it...I e

    Things seemed to have gone from zero to way past zero in no time at all. The moment Mason stood in front of me my heart was racing, my mind went blank, not helped by Noushka going crazy. And then, when he touched me, just briefly, my whole body went into meltdown; and I knew I wanted more. I wanted to see how his touch felt. I had experienced a little of his touch, but I wanted to know more...His kisses were so sweet… the touch of his hands upon me felt different somehow, in a way I can’t explain. But every kiss, every touch was increasing my need for him. And as I hooked my arms around his neck, collapsing backward onto the bed, I knew then that my earlier doubts were evaporating rapidly, and I didn’t want things to end. I just hoped he felt the same.Mason came down onto the bed with me, but rested his elbow upon the bed so he didn’t crush me. The look within his eyes told me everything I needed to know. He was wanting this as much as me. His hand stroked back my hair in the way h

    I quickly cleared up the bathroom, giving Gianna the privacy she needed to change. I chose to check in with Jaxon and Levi as I did, to ask them to ensure it was arranged to have some clothes dropped here for Gianna by the morning. But despite trying hard to keep myself occupied, my mind kept wandering back to the thought of her right now in my bedroom, half naked and how badly I wanted to be there with her…Echo was giddy at the thought too. But I knew I had to be a gentleman. I could not rush this. She had had a difficult day. I was still recovering from injuries… injuries Gianna had saved me from. Saving me in such a way that has resulted in the mark upon my neck. A mark I am unsure if she truly wants to be there, if I am honest. But one I am so desperate to reciprocate…I knew the spare room was always made up, so I did not need to check in there. I had avoided telling her about the spare room, or even showing her to that room before her shower. Perhaps I had hoped she would want

    Mason’s words had touched me. He was truly the sweetest. Did I want to be his mate? I honestly couldn’t say. Surely it was too soon, wasn't it? I knew I enjoyed his company. That much had become evident the first night of meeting him. But, did I want to be with him? Yes, I think I may… but being with him meant so much more than simply being together. Him being an Alpha made things so much more complicated than I think I was ready to comprehend right now.‘Do not do this.’ Noushka warned. ‘He already wears our mark. He was willing to defend you, likely even die for you. What more do you want? Alpha or not, he is more than worthy of being a mate. And, I think it is what he wants too. Why would you intentionally hurt him?’I felt guilt flooding my body at the mere mention of what he had suffered because of me, combined with the prospect of hurting him. I hated seeing him lying there earlier, unconscious, absolut
