Mason."What about you? Don't you have a fling too?""I don't have any,” I lied, feigning a serious tone.This beast fellow acts as if he knows everything and would catch me at the slightest lie.He is scary!And mentioning Andrew right now would seem like a very bad idea. He acts as if he wants to flip the table over the more he eyes my bite marks. I told Andrew not to leave marks. That bastard!I know we are not interested in each other or anything but l wonder why he is acting jealous and envious over it.He is such a complicated fellow and I should run from his type at my age. I have been through a lot in the hands of this gender already but here I'm feeling excited and desirous over this red flag. I feel happy that he is not serious with that fellow and not like it is an opportunity for me or anything.Who would be serious with him? Although he seems like the type to break your legs if you try to leave him. I risk being close to him, I feel so drawn and familiar with him like w
Mason. "Who came?""Not anyone important. Don't speak and have some good rest, Mason." "Papa, are you going to be alright?" Kai's voice rang in my ears. My lips curled gladly, knowing that l had him by my side even though my eyes were too tired to stay open. "Don't worry Kai Kai. Papa is just overworked l guess,” I hummed, holding onto his little hands. My head was spinning like a wheel and I felt too light-headed at the same time. My body quailed in dread as my eyes winced slightly open to a cold towel pressed to my forehead. My visions were so foggy and hazy. David rapidly breathed out in frustration and l knew something was wrong with him or something might be happening that l had no idea about. I wonder who the visitor was. "I'm so sorry that I didn't even pay enough attention… I didn't even know you were sick. I hope the Doctor gets here soon." "I'm fine,” I managed to let out. I didn't want him to feel guilty, not like l had planned to get sick. Maybe if l didn't go to
Leo. “Get out, Auden.”"I wouldn't ask you to come with me if it wasn't important, Alpha,” Auden insisted, which made me cease robbing Roosevelt's hardened nipples between my fingers. I cursed intently, annoyed at what could be so important at the moment. "You should go, l will wait,” Roosevelt said. I heaved my head in Auden's direction, eyeing him accordingly but he put up a nervous and blank expression. I tapped on Roosevelt's left butt for him to get up which he did embarrassingly. I got on my feet and nodded to Auden to lead the way as I arranged my bulge, negotiating with my body mentally. "What is it? I hope it's important,” I groaned, going ahead to my office without waiting for a reply from him. I pushed some files aside and sat on the table folding my hands on my thighs. "The thing is… Alpha, l…l…""Why are you stuttering, Auden?”"Nothing urgent happened… I already… ""What are you saying? Are you emphasising that you disturb me on purpose? Tch, What is this behaviou
Mason. My eyes sprang open. I gathered my laboured breath, puffing out slowly as I felt a tinge of pain in my veins. I quickly shook my hand and realized an IV drip was deep in my veins. I blinked violently, compiling my memory of what happened before now. "You are awake young Master." I prodded my head to the side, trying to gather the almost familiar voice when my eyes picked up on my father glaring dagger at me. I instantly sat up but the familiar voice of the doctor spoke again, “You need to have more rest, young Master." "Papa…?""Kai Kai?” I mumbled, stroking his soft hair tenderly. I couldn't help but curve my lips weakly at the sight of my son pouting cutely. I glared back in my father's direction to see an unfamiliar female image sitting by the sofa. David is standing by the door. The Doctor and a female nurse who accompanied him. I shut my eyes, sighing hysterically. "What happened to me?" l asked casually, not looking in their direction but fixing my gaze on Kai wh
Mason. “A guest? I'm not expecting anyone,” l huffed, dumbfounded with bile building up to my throat. I veered to the side to confirm with David if he had any idea who that might be. "We told him so, young master. And your father gave instructions not to allow you out of your room or even the house premises,” The guard confided. “So how am I supposed to see this guest you speak of?" I trailed off, sprawling back into the bed to return Leo's call. “I will confirm who that is, get some rest,” David said, bowing slowly as he walked out. I slouch on the bed trying to pull the covers over Kai to keep him warm as l lay beside him quietly. "Kai Kai…?"I flinched, orienteering fear as l heard a thud on the wall coupled with aggressive muttering. "You can't go in here!" I scurried to the door as l heard repeated fuddled footsteps bumbling on the ground. I sucked in my breath calmly before opening the door. I dodged immediately as David's body came toward me groggily, staggering at his
Leo. "I'm worried about Kai, he is so clingy to me. Do you mind if l take him home with me?" l asked daringly, even though l knew the question would hurt Mason as his already pale face contorted a totally blank expression. He seems to be under extremely high stress and l could feel my heart torn out bit by bit. Even at the speck of not feeling anything except everything that he is feeling. His sadness, his sizzling anger and that ravaging loneliness. That emptiness calling out to me but I’m so uncertain if l should step in or not. Can l really fill him up? Even though he has made me feel complete since that fateful day we met. My ribs felt maximum and my heart got heavier, beating drastically like my days on earth were longer. Maybe if l could take Kai back home he will be able to gather himself up and recuperate. I don't need anyone to tell me that something isn't right with this house. There is no way a house owner would feel this frightened and scared in their own house. Mason
Mason. I let my back slide against the wall as my leg felt jelly. Weak, powerless and struck with shame. I sat on my hips holding onto the ground with my nails kneading the tiles heartbreakingly. I let out a sob as Leo closed the door behind him. My heart was hit by a thunderbolt as the room became overwhelmingly empty and eerie. Everything suddenly became meaningless again. What exactly am l doing to myself? Why did l allow… Why did l give in to Leo without fighting hard? Without thinking, without consideration? I just allowed him to devour me like that. I brought up my hand, rubbing my lips mindlessly. l fidgeted as it felt puffy and heavy. I went on messaging my butt like the first time when I realised that I wish to be grabbed like that, by a manly strong arms like Leo's. It feels so new, like I'm 16 years old again. Doing the forbidden under my father's roof. Like the moment I knew I longed to be touched and drilled from the inside, the feeling of helplessness.Why should l
Leo."Calm down, will you?" I cuss at Amir, panting uncontrollably. My heart rose up and down, tightening violently and threatening to tear out of my chest.I couldn't stop running! I couldn't even fathom the direction I was heading to! As if my sense of self had dispersed with the wind! As if my entire self had been taken by Mason! As if my life had shifted into an alternate macrocosm and he and I were locked inside! As if my body and soul are ready to risk it all for our mate!It's just a fucking kiss!Fuck fuck!I can't be going crazy over a fucking kiss when I just kissed Roosevelt earlier and got turned on.I can't be going wild over a kiss as if it's my very first kiss but I am. I can't! It's so different! I just kissed my mate! This is what my life has already wanted!Fuck!"Fucking slow down"I hissed, attempting to pull out my clothes gently as my body wanted nothing else but to shift. Amir is not listening to me!I didn't even take in my surroundings. I just went with my i
Leo.“Alpha, you are here,” Auden said excitedly, stepping into my office. I nodded, swirling my biro between my fingers as my eyes fixed on the paperwork I was trying to get out of the way.“I made your favourite tea,” He slid the teacup towards me, “Take a break and drink something. Everything is settled now.”“It's settled now but chaos will begin later,” I rub my forehead with my fingers tiredly. I took the cup of tea and placed it on my lips as I sipped on it, enjoying the warm and smooth taste.It's already late and I'm in no way close to finishing this. I'm worried Mason might have waited for us to have dinner together with Kai and I couldn't show up.Immediately I'm done with this I'm running back to my mate.“So…” Auden clears his throat, gaining my attention, “You know you will never be alone, right? Even if a thousand chaos begins in the world I will gladly lay down my life for you.”My eyebrow raised at his sudden confession, “What is going on?”He shrugs, taking a seat at
12 Hours Earlier.Andrew.“Why did you send for me?” Auden rolls his eyes as he steps into my apartment.I had invited him over after I left the club. I need to take the next step for my plan.“Can't I invite an old friend for a drink?”“I'm not your friend, Andrew. If I remember very well you hated my guts, let's not pretend.”I chuckle embarrassingly, “You need to calm down, it's not that serious. At least now we are friends aren't we? And we are working together now.”“I'm not working with you. Even though I responded to your call, I made sure Mason left Alpha Leo’s house and I also gave you the secret paperworks of the mercenaries' consumers. It doesn't mean I work for you, you can't just disappear many years ago and appear again acting like the messiah.”“Don't be difficult, let's have a drink. This is the best on the shelf,” I pour him a glass of Macallan whisky, tak
Leo.“What is going on here,” I ask Auden, who is trying to separate Zena from a fight with one of the oldest elders.The pack is in total chaos.I haven't been in the Pack for only one night and everything has turned upside down. It took me more than an hour to get into the Packhouse because there was a protest going on just outside the gate. The guards are doing everything to keep the place safe and let them have peaceful protests.Zena is still yelling at the elder oblivious to my presence or my thoughts.“That's enough,” I cut them short, the room going silent. Zena shakes Auden's hands off her as she walks towards me, I could see my mother sitting with her hand over her face, frustrated from the situation.“Where have you been,” Zena is angry and her tone is not friendly, “When there is a literal chaos going on in the Pack you are always unavailable. Sometimes I wonder if you are Alpha enough to protect this Pack because this is all your fault.”“Zena!” I growl at her, warning he
Leo.“The bedroom, Leo,” Mason says into our kisses, his hands around my neck, his legs immediately swinging around my waist as I jerk him up. I don't stop kissing him as I take him upstairs.Soon I'm letting his back rest against the bed, settling in between his spreaded legs.“I'm taking this off.”“Yes, please.”I break our kiss, meeting his eyes. Amir purrs in my head at the fire and lust in Mason’s eyes, our mate. I pull his t-shirt over his head, swallowing greedily as my eyes wander on his body.“Holy mother, baby,” I whispered, salivating as my fingers began to trail on his soft skin, “You are so beautiful… You are so perfect. ““Leo…” “I want to see more,” I immediately pulled his pyjama pants out, leaving him naked and spread out under me, “You have no idea how perfect you are for me.”“Stop staring, Leo,” He whines, covering his face with his hands. I chuckled, unbuttoning my own shirt, slowly until his attention was back on me. I tease him before shrugging off my shirt.I
Mason.I woke up with a pounding headache, my vision still hazy with sleep. I snuggle into the soft pillow, groaning tiredly. Small shards of my memories coming to me, I blink my eyes open and the clock by the bedside tell me it's noon.I sat up immediately, wincing at how heavy my head felt. I rub my eyes with my fingers, my mind blank and well rested. I look around my bedroom, I'm alone… A sharp pain pierced through my forehead and an image of Leo came to my head.What did I do yesterday?Was Leo with me yesterday?Wait… didn't I go to the club yesterday?Kai…? I slid out of bed immediately, grimacing from an intense headache but I slowly made my way downstairs, rubbing my eyes to get rid of the itchiness.“You are finally awake, Mason.”I stop in my tracks at the familiar voice, my heart beating fast within my rib cage. I stare wide-eyed at Leo, “I wasn't dreaming?”He raised an eyebrow at me, and then looked away, frowning.He is wearing a white shirt with an apron over it, his le
Leo.I'm about to dispose of the wet towel when Mason grabs my wrists, “Leo, don't go please.” His eyes are closed and his face is morphing into sadness, like he is about to cry.“I'm here, I'm not going anyway.”Tears fell down the side of his face as he held me tighter, “Why can't you just touch me? Leo please touch me and take this feeling away, I'm hurting so much.”I settled down beside him, taking his hand into mine as I released a possessive aura, marking a territory with Mason inside. Making him feel my presence even though he can't see me, making him feel my touch but not with my hands. I lean forward to his scent gland, to the sweet spot on his neck and scent him, sniffing and licking him.I'm ashamed because I don't know if that will work on him as he isn't a wolf but I'm trying my possible best to keep him calm. To keep myself calm. My rut is fast approaching and being close to my horny mate is the last thing an Alpha like me should do.What if it suddenly happens and I ca
Leo.“The High Priestess will come out of her seclusion in two days. It's been two years of her absence, the elders are celebrating her return on the second day of the Blood Moon Festival. Here,” Auden spread a small old map in front of me, “This is where the hunting will take place.”“When will it take place,” I skimmed through the map. I'm here in the office even though it's getting late. I'm foreseeing every preparation for the festival, there is a lot to do.“On the third day until the fifth day, that is until the last day,” Auden explains, his tone in a serious work mode.It is easy this way, both of us are pretending that the discussion the other day never happened. Avoiding a ghost in the room is better than approaching it.That can ruin our friendship and we should move past that. Auden is my closest friend, he knows literally everything about me and it is mutual. He is my beta and he has an aura and power
Mason.“Where are you going?” Jason asks me, stomping his unfinished cigarette under his shoe.“Clubbing,” I tell him the obvious. Tonight I'm dressed extra. I wore my black leather pants with white puffy sleeve shirt, it's made of silk and it fits my body perfectly. I button down letting my chest show, my nipple buds are hard against it.I wore dangling diamond earrings that I haven't worn in a long while, my hair beautifully styled and I used a good amount of cologne. Since tonight is Andrew’s post birthday celebration, he sends the location of a private coterie. It's an expensive bustling hub in the middle of the city.I took my time to look extra attractive tonight, I'm clubbing as a free and happy man. Kai is with his nanny doing his homework, she will put him to sleep afterwards.“Leo never mentioned to me about you clubbing at night. Isn't that risky?”“Well, I don't care about what Leo thinks. I'm going out and you have a choice. Either you drive me there or you give me the ca
Mason.“You didn't have to come here,” David snorted, sulking and rolling his eyes.I quietly drop the things I bought for him on the cabinet, pulling out a chair to sit beside him. Kai runs to him, climbing the hospital bed to straddle him, “Uncle.”He coos at Kai, cupping his cheeks, “My baby, I missed you so much. I'm sorry that you were hurt and Uncle couldn't help you, I'm so happy to see you well.”“Uncle,” Kai squeals, laughing as David begins to tingle him all over. I smile gladly, watching the scene.When they finally settle, David speaks to me again, “You didn't have to come here, Mason. I thought you might have returned to Bavaria City or that fuckface should be able to keep you safe. It's dangerous out here.”“Don’t curse David and Leo is not a fuckface.”“Whatever.”“How are you doing?” I ask him.“I'm not dead, the doctor says thankfully my intestines are safe, it wasn't that deep so I'm okay and recovering,” He shrugs tiredly, “I'm used to getting stabbed.”“It's nothin
