IRENE I woke up to a heavy arm thrown over my body, holding me in place and the first thing I felt was fear. I jolted in shock and panic, my claws ready to attack but once I saw Karson's face, I felt a rush of excitement and calmness.He looked peaceful in his sleep, his hair fell beautiful over his brows and I reached out to push it away, caressing his face in the process.Did he really mean what he said back there? I blushed from the memories and held the covers tightly to my naked chest. I've never had a man in my room like this, I've been celibate ever since him.I sighed and rested on my side watching him sleep. What did this mean for us, for the kids? Was it safe to go about telling everyone now that we were a thing?Goddess! This was too much for my heart to bear. It was beating so fast on overdrive, I couldn't stop myself.But the process was going to be a long and tiring one. I'd have to move back to the pack and it seemed I may have to resume as Luna. If the pack members wo
IRENEFor the first few seconds, I froze until Iris sang in my head with a low voice, 'Busted.'I stepped away from Karson immediately like his closeness would burn my face and bring out the truth."What are you talking about? Don't be ridiculous!" I moved around quickly and got busy with my hands, "Would you like stir-fry? It's the fastest I can whip up-""I'd like an answer to my question," he pressed and literally pressed into me from behind making me yelp. I moved away from under him again, threading my fingers through my hair as I thought of a way out of this.Goddess! I was every shade of guilty with how I was acting. What was wrong with me?'Just tell him about me,' Iris whined but aggressively like she could smack me if she was standing right in front of me.No. I didn't want to do that. That was out of the options. Mentioning my wolf was the last thing I wanted to do. I still didn't understand what she was-'I am a part of you!' I winced from the headache of her yell.That pa
KARSON I wouldn't say I didn't see the question coming but it was still a surprise. It only confirmed what my mother had said as well as all the others around me.Me and Lexie? Really?I wouldn't do her even if my life was on the line.I admit I may have at some point looked in her direction but there was a reason for that, I swear and I hate to admit that the reason was to spite a certain someone whom I know stood before.Fuck!I didn't want to say that to her. How would she take it?She already looked at me and had judged me before asking. Now that she waited for a reply, it was as if she wanted to hear something completely different.I really was the worst back then and I knew it would take a lot of convincing to make Irene trust me again."I can explain," I started but she rolled her eyes, groaned and started to walk away. I grabbed her wrist, "It's not what you think."She struggled to get free, pushing my hand away."You asked, now just give me a chance to reply, okay?" What co
IRENE "Shit!" I pushed Karson away and jumped down to my feet, spinning around, I held Carl's suspicious gaze. My little boy had his eyes squinted as he stood on the stairs holding his toy with one hand.Oh Goddess! He saw that, didn't he?"Fuck," Karson swore under his breath as he turned around, probably to hide his boner in front of our kid. The situation was almost laughable. While he fixed himself, I approached my son."Carl, what are you doing here, honey?" I rushed to him as he climbed down the stairs, rubbing his sleepy eyes."I can't shweep.""Aween, you couldn't sleep?" I quite remembered him sprawled on the bed with his legs thrown about as he snoozed away. "You want some water... milk?"Instead, he kept his eyes on Karson and didn't look away, the suspicion on his face very visible. Oh my cute little detective!"What's uncle doin' here?" He pointed to him and I turned back to Karson who now had his legs crossed so good, you'd know he was hiding a weapon between his legs.
KARSONIn five years, I could count how many times I've had a good night's sleep and it was all thanks to the woman whose head was resting on my chest and her small frame glued to my body. She was the reason for the sleepless nights and my sleep-filled nights. She was a terror and a dream for me at the same time.I slept so soundly just paying attention to her breathing. Every sound she made was so important down to her heartbeat. I was charmed.But I frowned slightly when I heard her door open and little footsteps approaching us. At first I thought I was in between sleep but the piercing gaze I felt didn't stop so I turned my head and opened my eyes.My heart almost flew out of my chest as I froze so hard with a chill that I was certain Iren felt in her sleep because she turned, moaned slightly as she threw her hand over me and her thigh over my morning wood, rubbing, pressing-Irene. Irene. The kids are here.My little ones blinked at me as they cocked their head side by side like
KARSONFuck!I slammed the car door shut and stormed into the house, fuming in annoyance with an angry cloud over my head.The look in Irene's eyes haunted me throughout the drive back to my pack and I hated every minute of it.Yes, I deserved that. I deserved her suspicions and her raised brow but what did she think I was going to do with the kids; take them away from her?She really thought I'd be so heartless as to rip them from her. I was the stranger in their lives here. I wouldn't just act like a total dick and expect them to like me.I didn't want my kids to grow up hating me, I really wanted to take my time in winning the little ones over but how could I even do that when Irene could barely spare me a pinch of trust?The last thing I wanted to do was mess things up. If only she knew how miserable I'd been these past five years, but I knew she had her own troubles too.Left to care for two pups plus herself, I bet it hadn't been easy.As much as I wanted to be selfish and think
IRENEIt had been two days since Karson left and I couldn't stop feeling guilty over the way I had reacted. It was silly of me, but what could I do? I panicked when I woke up to an empty house; my kids and their baby daddy, gone.My first thought was that he only got close to me so he could snatch them when I wasn't looking. I was this close to calling Alpha Lucas when he suddenly showed up with them.After questioning Karin and Carl, I found out they just went on a stroll. Just an innocent stroll between a man and his pups.Fuck!I ran my fingers through my hair as I sat on the couch, pondering on what to do. Nanny May had just dropped the kids off at school and I was finally alone with my own thoughts.I felt the displeasure in my wolf, her disappointment and her scolding. I already felt shitty, I didn’t need her to add to it."Carl wouldn't stop talking about Alpha Karson on the way," Nanny May said from the kitchen where she emerged wiping her wet hands on her uniform. "They are q
IRENEMy brain left at the moment, abandoning me as I stuttered in my struggle for words.Nanny May came up to me from behind and grabbed my shoulders, "She would be delighted to accompany you, Alpha Karson." she started to pull me away, "Please give us a few minutes and she'll get ready."Karson smiled in response and she dragged me up the stairs like I was a dummy. Once she shut the door, I suddenly snapped out of it. She was already flipping through my clothes while I battled with my burning cheeks."Did that…" I still couldn't believe what just happened downstairs."We can't keep the young man waiting, now can we?" she couldn't hide the excitement in her voice. Why was she blushing harder than I was?Was she somehow fed up with my singleness on my behalf? She looked eager to send me off as she placed the outfits over my body checking me out."But the kids aren't here," I said."If he wanted the kids to come with, he would've come at the usual time but he didn't. He's here for you.
IRENEI opened my eyes to very familiar ceilings and the warm sun on my face. It was a new day and all I could remember from the night before was the fight between Karen and Lucas.Did he get home okay? Wait, I'm supposed to be mad at him for what he did.He disrespected me. He could do it again later in bed but I wasn't going to tell him that until he apologized, of course.The door opened and I turned to it."Good thing you're up," Nanny May walked in and shut the door. My ringtone blasted in the air and I cringed at the annoying sound. It felt like I had been hearing that for a while now."He has been calling non-stop."So it has been ringing for a while now."Who?"She pursed her lips like I even had to ask when I already knew who she referred to. "Alpha Karson."Hearing his name made my heart skip a beat. "Thank you," I accepted the phone and looked around. "Can I please get some water?""Sure," she exited the room and I answered the call towards the end of it. "I just woke up."
IRENEThe healers returned after a while and this time, I was put in a room and asked to shift. They gave me the privacy of changing out of my clothes since I didn't want to rip them. Once I transformed, shaking out my fur, I sat back on the floor and let them observe, going round my wolf to observe her.Lucas came around us and patted my fur, "I already told May to stay over that you'll be running late. She'll put the kids to bed."I was grateful for Lucas in my life but that still did not give him the right to but into my personal life."Okay, we've got what we needed. You can shift back now."Too late. I couldn’t control it. I suddenly shifted back into my human floor, naked on the floor. They were all too frozen to turn around quickly.Lucas peeled off one of their white coats and hurriedly wrapped it over me, covering me up. They all stepped outside quietly and the nurse returned with my clothes. "I'll be right outside when you're done." he hurried off."The sleeping pills must b
IRENEThe monitor's beep brought me back to my surroundings as a few healers surrounded the bed with their white coats. Lucas had woken up the pack just trying to get me some help. Speaking of Lucas, he was waiting right outside the door, biting his fingers with his gaze on me.He was tense, I could see that. He must be really affected by my smell to stay that far away. But not once did he take his eyes off me nor the doctors whenever they reached to touch me.He was on alert, just waiting for the slightest sign of my discomfort. He didn’t even trust his own healers."The tranquiliser should begin its work as soon as it gets into your body," a nurse said and asked for my arm. She fixed the needle in and waited, "In three, two… one…" she stepped back, waiting for a reaction.Everyone held their breaths."I feel like a laboratory experiment- wow-" I shivered at the first wave of what felt like a hot splash of water in my skin.Lucas looked alarmed and ready to burst in through the door.
IRENE"What the fuck, Irene?" Lucas screamed in my face and I snapped out of it. My bum still felt his light tap and for a moment there, it fucked with my head. Why did he have to do that?"You're blushing?" Lucas stared at me in shock. "He disrespected you and you're blushing?"Disrespected? Says who?Goddess! I couldn't stand my own thoughts right now. Was that coming from me or my wolf? "What are you doing here?""What?" his eyes still brimmed in anger and now my question made it even worse. "You're asking me that? This is my pack and I own every inch of it. I told you I was coming over today."When did he… fuck! I wasn't listening."You weren't listening…" he looked hurt for a moment there as he pieced it together. "Irene, I don’t want to believe you were answering my call in the middle of a-""My kids are within earshot so mind what you say," I warned but his nose flared as he exploded."You should've thought about that before letting a fuckboy leave through your fucking window,
IRENEI opened my eyes to a sore pussy and a warm beating heart under my head. He played with my hair, caressing my face in the process. How long did we do it for? I had no sense of time right now."You're up," he announced before I even moved. "Welcome back-""Don't even!" I rolled my eyes, embarrassed but satisfied… for now."I wondered if I'd have to kiss you awake, sleeping beauty," he teased. "And if my kiss didn’t wake you, my-""Don't even say it, Karson. You've already fucked me like an animal enough for one day."He froze and when he spoke again, his voice was lower with a challenging tone, "You think that's enough for one day?"Oh boy! I really shouldn’t test him. I lifted up while holding the sheets to my chest and I looked around. A part of my brain felt dead-- no, not dead, vacant. Like he fucked us so good that my brain had to take a vacation. I felt lightheaded."It's night!" I almost screamed. "How is it dark outside?" how long did we-- "Goddess!" I covered my face, la
IRENE"Irene?" Alpha Lucas called. "Are you there?""Y-Yes, I'm here… sorry, I uhm… I'm just in shock," Karson helped me to my feet and pulled me to the arm of the couch. What was he planning on doing?"Please," I whispered but my body betrayed me and he knew. He could smell it. Everything he did turned me on more. I subscribed to his wild and untamed attitude. Whatever he wanted, I knew deep down that I wanted more.But Lucas was on the phone and I didn't want to-- I gasped, my heart racing as I was suddenly bent over the arm of the couch, legs kicked apart to widen my stance and he grabbed my waist from behind."What was that? Are you okay?"Was I okay? I was spread out in my living room about to be fucked like a prisoner. I wasn't okay. I was ecstatic. Which woman would say no to kinky sex and a mind-blowing orgasm?"Yes, uhm… I just called to ask about you. That's all. I'll speak to you later-""Should I come over instead?"His cock nudged in, spreading me in one slow tortuous-- t
IRENE"No?" Why would he suddenly ask that? "No," I said firmly, this time staring at his doubtful face. "Karson," he straightened up and I lowered my head to my shoulders to smell myself. "Do I smell like that?"His nostrils flared and a flicker of lust passed his eyes. "You don't really want to ask that because you have no idea how badly I'm trying not to jump you.""O-Oh," that oddly made me feel good. "That bad? Sorry I… just don't breathe then."He narrowed his eyes, "It's everywhere from the doorstep. Any unmated male will walk in and think there's a lady in distress.""I don't think I like my lady parts being referred to as a 'lady in distress'" I laughed. "But yeah, I think I see your point."I was oddly horny. Oddly because there wasn't anything stimulating in the air. Now that I thought about it, I've been in this mood since we went on that drive. Did I need a run or something?I quickly connected to my wolf to find out what was going on but the only thing in her mind was he
IRENEThe kiss was soft, a surrender on my part and a passion on his. His tongue brushed over mine in a smooth dance that made me sigh, satisfied and turned on. I held him close-- closer if I could as his hands roamed everywhere. It wasn't me in the room anymore, I let my feelings take over.Fuck, he felt so good, smelled so good too. In only a few seconds, my core was starting to clench in a warm invitation. Slow down, girl. We just had an orgasm some hours ago, and another wouldn't be so bad my wolf whispered. She was down for anything; kissing, fucking, biting-Whoa! Whoa! Whoa! Chill! Chill!As much as I wanted to keep kissing and grinding against his massive erection, that thought was a shocker.I've never wanted to be marked since we got back together. I pulled away, breaking off the kiss even when my whole body was against it.It was fulfilling to stare in his eyes and see them lose focus. That made two of us."Hey," I grinned shyly, blushing like I didn't imagine naughty stuff
IRENE"What do you want and how'd you even get my number?" She was the last person I ever wanted to speak to and having her voice next to my ears was pricking my skin."No, let's talk about you instead," she snapped. "What do you want?""You called," I reminded her. "Plus, I wouldn't want to talk to you after you kidnapped my kids.""Ha! I was only doing them a favour. I figured they could know the pack they truly came from. How does it feel running away with the Alpha's pups?"My nose flared in anger, "You had no right-- and I'm not about to go back and forth with you. Goodbye--""The pack hates you!"I was going to hang up but now she had my attention. "Yes, after you spread rumours, I'm sure-""Oh please! I just did everyone a favour. I reminded them that a Luna who ran away can never return and play ruler. You were a coward who couldn't handle the pack or her man and so you left. Don't bother coming back-""Do you hear yourself? If you did, you'd know how ridiculous you sound. Thi
