Poor Rose! Being a mom is such hard work. I really felt Rose's barrage of emotions with this cry session. I update this story daily. Let me know what you think.
ROSE As I settle down from my painful cry, I realize it is Tyson who is touching me, and I pull his hand away. I look up at him and am startled at the look on his face. It is complete adoration and love, at least, I think that is what that is. I look away, seriously confused. “Thank you for letting me use your phone. I am sorry I yelled at you, I panicked when I realized what time it was, and my daughter wasn’t here with me.” “A mother’s worry. It is understandable and I do not, in any way, hold that against you, Rose. From what I have seen and from what Maddie has to say about you, you are a wonderful mother and are doing a fantastic job raising her.” He says with sincerity. Pride blooms in my chest at his words and I return my gaze to him, and I smile. His eyes widen for a moment and then he smiles back at me. God he’s handsome! We just sit like that for a few minutes, staring at each other. I’m absorbing his face when I come to my senses. Jeeee-zus Rose! He is your boss, snap ou
ROSE “Sorry to interrupt, but I also have your blood test results Mr. Evans.” She says, and I look at Tyson confused. “Your second in command was correct Mr. Evans. Both the blood we took from you and the coffee mug that was brought in from your office as evidence, confirms that you were drugged. The combination of drugs acted as both an enhanced libido stimulant and one that made you highly susceptible to suggestion. Meaning, you probably would have had sex with pretty much anyone if they had suggested it.” Tyson nods expecting these results. I, however, was not. “WHAT?!!” They are both shocked and jump a bit at my outburst. “Are you saying that Rachel drugged him and… raped him?” “Essentially, yes,” Dr. Reynolds replies. I sit back and tears start flowing out of my eyes. No sobs, just tears. “I remember her eyes,” I whisper out, mainly to myself. “That part I remember quite clearly. I walked in, and she was staring right at me, like she was expecting me to walk in and see you two
TYSON I freeze with my sandwich almost to my mouth when I hear her moan. I look up at Rose and I see her tongue dart out to lick her lips. I’m immediately rock hard in my pants, my cock straining against my zipper. Fuck, that was the sexiest thing I have ever heard in my entire life and that tongue! I can only imagine what else she can lick with it. But the sweet look she gives me, completely derails my thoughts. How can this woman have a child? She looks so innocent. So pure. Like she has no idea how unbelievably sexy and beautiful she is. After hearing what Patty has to say about complements to her daughter, I’m sure she doesn’t think she has any sex appeal. Oh, it is most definitely there. My hard-on can attest to that. I am struggling. So fucking much. Trying to contain my desire and want for my little sexy mate. She may be hurt and bandaged but she is still the epitome of sexiness. When I held her hand earlier, I knew she could feel the mate bond. The smell of her arousal was s
ROSE The sunlight hitting my face wakes me, but I keep my eyes tightly closed, wanting my amazing night of sleep to continue. I realize I am warm, for the first time in a really, really long time. Since summer actually. I remember being cold when I went to bed, despite the extra blanket Tyson gave me. The warmth seems to be coming from my backside. It feels so good I wiggle back up to it, then I feel something hard, poking into my butt. Well, that’s uncomfortable. I reach around to figure out what that is and my hand hits warm skin before I can get there. What the…? I open my eyes and look behind me. My hand is resting on Tyson’s massive arm that he has wrapped around my waist. He is laying on his side, sound asleep. The heat I am feeling is coming from him, and damn is he warm! My personal heater. I realize quickly though, what is poking into my butt. When I really think about it, I’m not bothered by it. I know men usually get morning wood, so I’ll just chalk it up to that. It’s not
TYSON I have been awake for a long while now. I felt the sun rise up over the horizon and it’s warmth peeking through the mini blinds. Despite the annoyance of the sun on my face, I don’t move. I want to enjoy my mate in my arms as long as possible. Zeus is purring happily in my head. The first time he’s ever done that, I might add. And I know it is because he is happy and content with Rose so near us, touching her and treasuring her. Exactly like a mate should. I hear the change in her breathing when she wakes. She pushes back into me as she hums in satisfaction, until her butt hits my hard-on again. Damn! I don’t think she realized I was in the bed with her until just then. I just wait with my eyes closed, preparing for her freakout. She reaches back and brushes my arm with her fingertips. Her hand freezes and she turns over toward me in my arms; I think to look at me. I can tell she wasn’t expecting to see me, but still, no wig out happens. Instead, I feel her hand move my hair an
ROSE I wake again, this time with my face buried in Tyson’s chest. Oh Gawd!! I’ve had my face in his amazing chest for who knows how long. I don’t want to move because it is still so nice. But I WANT to move because I shouldn’t be nuzzling my boss. I know I’m blushing, and I sure as fuck don’t want anyone to see me like this. Such a predicament. “Good morning, Rose. Did you sleep well? I hope you stayed warm enough.” I hear Tyson whisper in my ear. I shiver at his warm breath on my ear and neck. I want to purr like a cat, enjoying his proximity and thinking about what that mouth could be doing to me, elsewhere. OH MY GOD!! What the hell is wrong with me?!! “Good morning, Tyson. Yes, I slept very well. Thank you. Ummm, please don’t take this the wrong way, but why are you in my bed?” I ask as I lean back to look at him, not removing my hand from his bicep. I want to keep touching him. “Well, I had planned on sleeping on that small fold out chair thing. But I saw you shivering in th
ROSE After taking the catheter out, Adam leaves to see to other patients, letting me know that Nurse Frank will be in soon with meds and to take more blood. Tyson comes back in, and he pulls out the breakfast Adam brought for us. Holy cow, it all smells so dang good! And there is so much. Pancakes, biscuits and gravy, omelets, bacon, sausage, and cut up fruit with yogurt and granola. There’s also orange juice, apple juice, and coffee. Tyson makes me a plate with a little of everything. I devour my plate. The pancakes are by far, my favorite. “Oooooh, these are so fluffy and buttery. I can’t even tell you how long it’s been since I had pancakes last.” I moan as I lick the syrup off my lower lip. I look up at Tyson and he once again has stopped with his fork of food almost to his mouth and he is staring at me. “Um, Tyson. Are you okay?” I ask as I swallow my bite of buttery, syrupy goodness. Just like last time, he doesn’t answer. This time though, Tyson sets his fork and plate down;
TYSON When Rose wakes up this time, I don’t pretend to be asleep. I know Adam is on his way with breakfast so it’s time to get up anyway. Rose gazes up at me from her position on the bed and I look down at her. Goddess she’s gorgeous. Her crystal-clear blue eyes are flecked with little bits of deep shimmery gold. I’ve never seen anything like that before. They’re mesmerizing and oh so beautiful. Her small button nose and round cheeks are littered with freckles. All of them having a slight range of color, making each one unique, like a snowflake. My mom used to say freckles were angel kisses and I completely believe that now. My mate has been kissed by the Goddess’ angels. Damn Adam and his horrible timing, I could have stared at her all day. Seeing her jump is a little funny, not being able to hear or smell people coming must be hard for humans. But I heard him and fully prepared myself for catching her, should the need arise. But that isn’t necessary. I hate that Adam asks me to
MADDIE—EPILOGUE THREE10 YEARS LATERI stand in the master bedroom of the newly renovated Alpha suite of Blue Meadow’s packhouse. Today is my 18th birthday and also the day I take my place as Alpha of my pack. I stare at myself in the full-length mirror and think about everything that has happened in the last decade to prepare me for this moment and the life I have ahead of me.I graduated from Zeus Academy at the age of 10. I attended college classes online through the University of Arizona. It wasn’t the Ivy League like everyone expected from me; those didn’t offer a self-paced program or enough online courses for me to get my degrees. I didn’t want to separate myself from my family to attend university, so I chose a less prestigious route that worked the best for me. I have zero regrets with my choice in schools.In eight years of education post-high school, I’ve earned four bachelor’s degrees, two master’s and one PhD. I’ve also studied diligently with Tyson on how to run a pack an
ROSE—EPILOGUE TWOIt’s been 6 months since I delivered Nolan into this world. He has grown like a damn weed and has become the center of our little universe. None of us can get enough of him and his baby scent.Both Tyson and I have retrofitted our offices to accommodate an infant including changing tables, swings, refrigerators, diapers, wipes, spit up rags and pacifiers galore. All the necessities for having an infant. And I can say, without a doubt, Nolan is the easiest going baby I’ve ever experienced. He rarely cries and he’s always happy, as long as he’s being held. He loves skin to skin contact, so much that he rarely wears any clothes. Mads and I always wear spaghetti strap shirts when we’re holding him, and Tyson just takes his own shirt off.It was hilarious when we first figured out that he likes skin so much, Tyson walking around the packhouse shirtless. Granted no one said anything to him about it, but I had the hardest time not whisking him away for sexy time. I mean, all
TYSON – EPILOGUE ONEThe last three months, post war, have been absolute hell! Yeah, I said it. Hell. Getting Blue Meadow back on its feet has been a huge challenge in and of itself. Much worse than most of the other territories I’ve taken over throughout the years. I honestly kept so much from both Maddie and Rose. Neither of them needed to know the intricate details of the rebuild. They were both getting over the trauma and horrors of the battle itself. I didn’t want to worry them.Kent, that worthless piece of crap, really did a number on this pack, it’s health and its finances. I had to pay over three million dollars to a mob pack in Las Vegas, for both Blue Meadow and Pine Woods’ debts. The last thing I wanted was for the mob to demand parts of the pack or worse, them going to the council for payment. I want to keep the council out of any and all of my affairs, as much as possible. They have proved, repeatedly, that they can’t be trusted to do their jobs.I made that trip to Vegas
ROSE“I thought I was going to lose you yesterday, Rose. Don’t do that to me again. You are my whole world.” He says as he slows his thrusts, showing me how much he loves me. I open my eyes and see Zeus shining out with him. I cup their cheeks and bring their mouth to mine. I kiss them with all the love I have within me. We continue slowly but with passion until we both explode in delicious orgasm.“I hope our sex continues to be this amazing in the years to come.” I tell him as we separate from each other.“Rose, from what I understand from other mated couples, it just gets better and better.”“I’m not sure how it can get better, but I look forward to learning.” I say with a sassy smirk over my shoulder as I step into the water. Tyson joins me in the water and does what he always does. He washes me and kisses the scars I have left. Apparently, they are much smaller than they once were.When I get out of the shower, I turn to look at my back and I gasp at what I see. The main lines are
ROSEWatching Tyson battling Kent is one of the scariest things I’ve ever had to witness. Kent looks awful and I feel horrible for his wolf, being saddled with such an atrocious human spirit. I know Tyson will take him down, but I’m still scared that something will happen to him that he can’t heal from. Tyson is my everything. My other half. I know I will live on should he perish during this battle, but it would be for Maddie and our baby only. My soul would be shattered, never to live like I did before. He has to pull through. He just has to.George holds me close, giving me comfort as we watch Tyson fighting Kent. As it progresses, my worry lessens somewhat. Kent isn’t fighting well, and he’s not healing from his minor injuries. I hope this speeds up because I hate seeing him suffer. Despite all the shit he’s put me through, I know his wolf doesn’t deserve anything long and drawn out.I breathe a sigh of relief when Tyson pulls Kent’s heart out of his chest, thankful that the man re
TYSONThe moment I see Maddie jump toward Rachel; I know it's Infinity up front and in control. Her eyes are glowing a bright green-gold-yellow and the angry expression is one I don’t think I’ve ever seen on Maddie’s face before. Plus, I can’t smell her on the wind like I can my Rose. I launch forward when I see Rachel’s eyes unfocus in that split second when Infinity lands on her back, knowing I’ll only have a moment to attack with Infinity’s distraction. What I’m not expecting is Infinity to kill Rachel in that moment. I know Infinity is an ancient wolf spirit, she’s fast on her feet and I know she’s killed in her past lives, but to see the blood of a kill on my sweet, baby Maddie’s hands, is beyond shocking.Rose, however, doesn’t even flinch at seeing Infinity toss Rachel’s heart to the ground or her splattered in Rachel’s blood. Nor does she pause with the gravity of meeting Infinity. Rose has really embraced the wolf shifter world completely and totally. I couldn’t be prouder of
INFINITYMaddie and Kevin step out of the dungeon into a warzone. Both of their eyes blow wide at the scene, and I can feel Maddie’s panic. We knew this was coming, but I don’t think she anticipated how ugly it was going to be. I lift my head and I smell the rotting garbage scent of rogues. It seems Maddie’s father knows no bounds. Humans, most likely hunters, for kidnapping, rogues as mercenaries, slavery, killing his mate and sexual deviancy. He really does need to be put down.The panic coming from Maddie hasn’t lessened as we look around on where to go and not be noticed. I have been saving up my strength the last few days, so I pull Maddie back and take full control. She doesn’t fight me on it and that tells me she is very overwhelmed right now. She puts on a good show, but the constant state of alertness and feeling the danger around her, she is slowly breaking. After this morning, seeing Odette killed, and then staying neutral to save Kevin, she’s at her max for today.“Rest Mad
ROSEI am flying across the roads and highways trying to get to Blue Meadow as quickly as I can. George and Ike are holding on for dear life and I think I can hear George whispering a prayer to Selene when my car catapults into the air. I’ve maintained my 110mph through most of the drive which has kept the guys in high anxiety mode. We don’t get too far off the pavement with that larger bump, but the way down is rough, and we bounce several times on the landing.“Luna, please slow down. The rest of the team can’t keep up. Plus, it feels like you’re trying to kill us.” Ike pleads with me, looking a little green.“Then they should drive faster. And I am not trying to kill you.”“Their SUV isn’t designed to drive that fast, plus they can’t take turns like this car doeeeeeees!” His voice goes higher pitched as I take a curve much faster than he’s comfortable with.“Well, you’re getting your wish. Wolves directly ahead and they’re fighting. I’m going to have to slow down. Do you know which
TYSONI cut the link to Rose as soon as Zeus and I tell her that we love her. I know she is worried about all of this, and it is her first experience with a shifter battle, but I know I’ll be fine. Zeus is a powerful, ancient wolf. He will decimate dozens before we hit a real challenge to our strength. Although, the biggest challenge will be to try to minimize the lives lost. These warriors we are going up against will be Maddie’s pack members one day in the future. I don’t want to kill any of them indiscriminately.It takes a few hours to run to Blue Meadow. We stopped running miles ahead of their territory and proceeded with stealth. My first warriors took out their border patrol silently, with darts laced with a mixture of wolfsbane and water hemlock. Again, we’re trying to not take anyone out needlessly. Most pack members of trash Alphas are only following orders. They don’t necessarily believe in the orders. Killing people that are just doing their jobs is what crap Alphas do.On
