The night was a long one for Karin. As she rubbed her eyes and yawned, she stiffened in her room. Despite how quiet it was in the house, she could hear the little whimpers coming from the room next to her.Her little ears picked up the sound faster than anyone would. How could it not? She had Alpha blood running through her veins but her mother had never mentioned that so little Karin thought others to be weaker than her when in fact, she just had Alpha blood and it was only natural for Alpha's to be stronger.She rolled out of bed, landing on her feet and with her usual scowl on her face, she made her way to the room next door. His whimpers grew louder and her scowl deepened even further. She reached on her toes to open the door and she walked into the room where her brother laid on his bed, crying and hugging his toy.Carl was always a crybaby and while it was hard on the twins that they hadn't seen their mother in two days, it was harder on Carl.Karin patted his head gently and he
IRENE'S POVI pushed myself away from Karson's hold and jumped to my feet. I had recovered from the shock of him barging into my room from the window and now the next thing was to get away from him.I didn't miss the stench of alcohol in his breath and it made me even more annoyed. Was he drunk? Even if he was drunk, why was I the one in his mind? I mean Lexie was there for him to touch whenever he wanted. Why bother me with this-'I don't mind,' Iris wagged her tail in my head and I could feel her excitement. 'Let him come,' she was eager for him to touch her. She wanted to rub scent with him and feel his wolf. Her outburst of emotion was affecting my body in a very negative way and I was trying my best to stay distracted or else he would smell my arousal in the air."What are you doing here?" I transferred my anger his way. I was losing control of my wolf as she would rather be in his arms than stay still in my own head. How could she pick this stranger over me?"Come back to bed,"
"Let us go!" Karin whined at the man who had picked her up. He looked quite elderly, even older than Alpha Lucas. He brought her closer to his face and she remained still as he examined her like she was a toy.Karin was doing her best to hold herself back from shifting. If her mother knew that someone saw her shift, she would get scolded and she really didn't want that to happen."They are so little," the man holding her mumbled in fascination. "And cute," he smirked. "Don't you think so Raphael?"Raphael thought the same. He was holding the boy and staring into his cute little eyes so much. One would think he was being sucked in. Those eyes of his were so big and round, they looked oddly familiar…"Who are you?"Karin deepened her frown, "We're not supposed to talk to strangers."The man half snorted in a laugh while still gazing at her in fascination. She was a smart child, he had to admit. "If I tell you my name, will I still be a stranger?" he watched her ponder on it for a while.
IRENE'S POVPrevious nightI stared at the text message from Nanny May with a small smile on my lips. It was relieving to hear about them every now and then. The message was short and simple, "The kids are fast asleep. You don't need to worry. Although, Carl keeps asking of you. He's not used to you being away for so long but you don't need to worry. I put him to bed."Oh Carl! I missed him a lot. He was the soft one; always quick to cry whenever I was nowhere in sight. I knew Karin was missing me too, she just had a hard time showing it.I rolled my fingers over the keyboard, biting a corner of my lip. I would give anything to be there with them right now; even if it was just to kiss them goodnight but with the way the things had gotten co complicated, I doubted if I would still be able to make it back home tomorrow."Thank you so much for letting me know. Please continue to take good care of them." I read aloud as I typed my reply.After sending the message, I dropped back on my bed
KARSON'S POV'What do you mean you lost the kids?' I picked up my jacket and moved around the room to get my watch.'They were right here,' Wayne reported with a panic tone. 'We left them right in the car and we just turned away.''Then they probably snuck out,' I concluded and stared in the mirror, wondering if I dressed too casual for my mission today. It wasn't anything businesslike so there was no need to wear a suit… at least I felt that way.'Raphael and I will go look around for a while. They shouldn't have wandered in. we'll check the surroundings before checking the hotel.''Okay. I'll meet you downstairs after I'm done having breakfast,' I cut off the mindlink and finished dressing up. I headed outside and made it to the elevator and finally the table where it was just me having breakfast.I had purposely delayed for a while as I wanted to be in my own space at the table. Too many Alpha's were present and while no one was going to say it, it was hard having to work with othe
KARSON'S POV'Tell me where you are, I'll be right there!' Alpha Lucas practically yelled in my head. I told him where to find me and while I waited, I sent another mindlink to my team to carry out the mission in my absence. With all the other teams investigating the rogue attack and the poison, it shouldn't take long before we find answers.I took my time in studying the kids' features and matching them with her. I wondered if it was just a coincidence that they had her eyes but when the girl smiled, I wondered if it was my eyes playing a trick on me or did she have a faint resemblance to Irene?But then again, have I ever seen Irene smile? She always kept such a straight face around me- almost like she didn't want to let herself go or let me know how much she was a mess for me. This was a long time ago. Now I only saw her smile around Alpha Lucas and other Alpha's. As if it was a default setting, she would lose her smile when it got to me.Shit, why did that make me pissed just thin
Alpha Lucas held their small hands and led them outside. He didn't know what to think seeing Karson act all caring and affectionate with the kids. Did he know they were Irene's kids?No, it didn't seem like he did. If anything, Irene would be particular about not wanting Karson to find out. It was no gainsaying that Karson had his eyes on Irene. The way he stared at her and even fought for her attention, it was starting to annoy Alpha Lucas.He didn't know he was already pissed off until he saw Karson being cute around the kids. Who knew that young and grumpy Alpha had a sweet side to him?Tempted to ask the kids what the conversation was all about, he decided to start with something light, "how did you two get here? You made mummy so worried. Did you come here all by yourselves?""No," Karin replied, shaking her head. "Some men tried to kidnap us but they drove us here saying they'll help us find mummy.""We escaped," Carl chipped in. "I'm so full! That food was delicious.""Haha! I
KARSON'S POVI could still picture Irene's face on the little ones. They had her eyes and smile. Everything pointed to her as their mother but I still found it hard to believe.I was aware that these days, she-wolves could have pups with anyone, it didn't have to be their mate but what was new to me was that wolfless she-wolves could have kids too.Being wolfless was already useless enough in a werewolf society, everyone was well aware of that. The wolfless wolves were always avoided and stigmatised in the Pack. Irene got lucky when she bagged an Alpha like myself and also because she was taken in by my mother.The kids said they were four years old. Irene disappeared five years ago, it's only logical that if they are her kids then they are mine as well.No, hold on a minute. Let's not get carried away.I folded my arms and clenched my fist. I was nervous all of a sudden, it was an expensive thought that I didn't want to entertain for too long.Why would Irene leave when she knew she
IRENE I don't remember being so stretched to my limit.Oh my fucking goddess! What was this position?I took deep breaths to steady myself, trying to relax around him. I could feel the death grip my pussy had around him and I worried I'd snap his dick in half.This was beyond delicious-- fuck!He watched with an intense gaze, studying my every reaction. I waited for him to say something to mock my pause but he didn't. He was struggling too, trying hard not to grab me. He gave me time to adjust and I took it, slowly rocking my hips back and forth.His eyes twitched, shutting close for a while and his jaw clenched. It was beautiful to watch him struggle for control so I did it again and again, until I was moaning gasping for air.When Karson opened his eyes again, they were gold. I felt hot having two people watching me. His wolf and him. They both tuned into my show like it was all that was worth watching."You feel so good," I whispered, a silent praise and admiration but my voice br
KARSONSeeing Irene get in control was the highlight of my night besides still tasting her sweet pussy on my lips.The way she kissed her was down my body, twisting her waist seductively was making it too hard to keep my hands from grabbing her.I had to restrain myself with the little self control I managed and my own tight grip. Speaking of tight-- fuck! I couldn't wait to sink my dick into that tight, wet, slimy pussy. My fingers in there were tempting enough, it took a lot of dedication and her sweet nectar to keep my lips there instead of slamming home like I should.I relaxed into her touch, letting myself get swept away in her seduction as she continued to lower herself. Her boobs dragged and kissed my body, her tight nipples trailing a path.I wanted these babies in my mouth again. I was suddenly thirsty for them.When she touched my dick, I jerked. Her fingers softly wrapped around me."You sure about that?" I tried to keep my voice straight but damn, she was affecting me wit
IRENE My back hit the mattress, causing my heart to fly to my mouth but I caught a whiff of his scent and finally relaxed."Who else would touch you like this, Irene?" He mocked, hovering over me in the dim room. He threw his shirt over his head, tossing it aside and I licked my lips as wetness pooled between my legs.I was eager for him, yearning for his touch-- I didn't realize how much.He caressed my cheek, kneeling between my legs. I came up on my elbows, mesmerized by the silhouette of his body and figure.He was hot and it didn't take much for me to drip in my underwear. I heard his sharp intake of breath and I nibbled my bottom lip, suddenly feeling shy."What about the kids? I need to check on them--""Been there. Done that. There's nothing for you to worry about," his hands roamed my body, pushing my shirt up and helping me take it off."In fact,"--I didn't realize I was eager to get naked-- "Oh Goddess!" I moaned, falling back on the bed when he sucked one of my nipples,
IRENEWe each went back to our respective rooms that night, begrudgingly too.I woke up early the next morning, making the snacks for our picnic and finishing up the work from yesterday since my day was ruined and I couldn't be productive anymore.Karson got the car ready and tied up some loose ends. We set out for a drive on the hills dressed in light clothes due to the sun. He kept them busy with some songs from our childhood and they sang happily.We got to our destination and I spread out the blanket while he helped with unpacking the food. "Please tell me you didn't bring your makeup box, Irene," Karson begged in a whisper, trying not to let the kids hear."You're safe. For now," I teased him, chuckling at the heavy sigh he released."And you are too. Don’t think I forgot what you did to me yesterday, " he narrowed his eyes, feigning hurt and anger."I was looking out for us," I explained. "You know you don't stop until the sun comes up.""No one asked you!" he grumbled, walking
IRENEI closed the door as they stepped out of my office. Lexie refused to take a seat, standing behind my chair with her arms folded. "Did you call me all the way here to watch you kiss Karson--""Maybe," she growled, fists clenched by her side. "I see you can't stand my pups. How about I show you the baby making process?""Shut up! Admit it, they were a mistake!" my eyes twitched. "Karson never intended to have pups with you--""Double it," I repeated. "Was what he said again so… where are you getting your facts from?" I was eerily calm, I was surprised at my own calmness. My wolf boiled inside me, wanting to bite off her head and chop off that face she thought was everything."You can spread your rumours about me, Lexie but it wouldn't change anything. I'm going to be Luna and you're just going to be that…" I searched for a better word. "Nothing. You're going to be nothing."I enjoyed it as her face twisted in jealousy and hurt. She couldn't even hide it to save her fucking life. I
IRENE"Mummy! Uwaaaah!"My thoughts scattered, panic and confusion setting in. Where was Mirabel? What happened to them? Did I trust the wrong person?"Let me see you," I cupped their faces, scanning them from head to toe with my heart beating twice as fast. "You're okay, you're okay. What's wrong? Why are you crying?"They rubbed their little hands over their eyes, sniffing profusely and shaking in their sobs. I snapped at the guards at once who flinched at my stare. "Someone start talking or else," I growled."Where are they?" Karson was running to us, panic on his face and fear. Seeing him made my lips tremble. Now I too wanted to sob and lean on him. What was this pathetic attitude? It felt like since daddy was here, we could all lay our complaints."Where is she?" Karson's cold tone iced the halls and now everyone was afraid. "Did I suddenly go deaf or did you lose your tongue?" he threatened.Where was who? Did he know something I didn't…"Oh Goddess, Luna!" Mirabel rushed over
IRENEKarin and Carl looked startled by my little outburst and I regretted it as soon as the strong tone left my mouth. "I'm sorry," I quickly recollected. "Who told you that?""They were talking about it. Some moms," Carl reported, carefully this time as if watching for my reaction. I rubbed his arm to ease him, doing the same for Karin, urging them to speak."They said a wolfless Luna."Ah, shit! I just knew it. My heart sank to the bottom and I forced a smile underneath the panic inside. "It's okay, baby. It's okay. Wolfless mean uhm… someone who has no wolf."They blinked their innocent eyes at me. "Is there someone like that?""Come on, get in bed and I'll tell you," they jumped to the bed, excited to hear a new tale. I tucked them in with my heart still pounding loudly. Laying on my side, I stretched one hand over them above their heads."Well, once upon a time, there was a really beautiful young girl. She was so pretty that everyone admired her. She had eyes like you, nose like
IRENEIt was just the first day and I was already hanging by a thread but it turned out alright in the end. They agreed to give me a chance, each warning me not to mess things up.With my past record as Luna, they knew they could count on me to win everyone over again, but what would truly seal the deal was Karson's mark.Was I ready for that? I guess that was why I was here to find out.I rubbed my temples as I walked out of the office at the end of the day."You look drained," Anna said on alarm. "My goodness! It used to take a workload for you to look like this each day.""Tell me about it," I muttered. "Can I have something to drink, please? Like hot chocolate.""Coming right up. I'll meet you in the little Alphas room," she said all too excited and bounced off."Little Alphas?" I repeated the odd thing. Well I guess she was right, it was just too soon for that and I didn't want to start any trouble.I dialed Nanny May as I walked down the hall, keeping her up to date with my well
IRENE A few hours later, the pounding in my skull was unbearable. I knew it wasn't going to be easy to fall into things, but I didn't expect a meeting right away.I was seated at the long wooden table, trying hard to keep a neutral look on my face while the others present tried to tear at me with their words.The council of women. The one a Luna of every pack was supposed to be in charge of.Once upon a time, they had my back, ready to support me and teach me the ways I should know."She has no right to sit at this table, Luna. You of all people should know that!" Margaret's arms remained crossed over her chest, a heavy disdain on her face that she threw my way."She disappeared. Left our pack like she had no reason to be here. She was Luna! That's the next rank after an Alpha. You know how important that is--""Yet, she's here again. Isn't that enough? What do you want from the poor woman?""Actions have consequences and we all know what that means."I gulped heavily,"She is to be
