56 - RykerIt’s been a week from hell. Well, weeks really, but this one has been the worst by far. She’s in my head and at the forefront of my thoughts at all times. I have had a semi since she came storming into my office demanding to run our first day here. I couldn’t even get off with anyone who tried, and they tried really, really hard. I don’t think I have ever had this much pent up energy in my entire life.My wolf and I had a huge fight the first time I let a woman go down on me since bringing Kennedy home. He was so pissed that while her brunette curls were bobbing up and down on my c*ck and I was picturing my mate’s blonde silky strands draped over me, he started planting images in my head of old men, gnarled old wolves and my mother just to kill the mood completely. Then he laughed for hours after. I just pulled the she-wolf off me and walked out and left her very confused and sitting in the middle of the floor while I had a limp d*ck dangling in between my legs.I have b
57 - KennedyI may not be able to do anything about the caveman behavior Ryker is throwing at me right now, or my traitorous body’s reaction to it, but that doesn’t stop me from trying. I keep pounding on his back and just yell nonsense trying to get him to put me down. It is also helping me pretend to not notice the absolutely toned, naked muscle flexing and moving under me. I notice there are no tan lines. I have half a mind to smack his ass and see what happens. Would it jiggle at all? I shake my head. I’m not doing a very good job ignoring him. I’m not su*cidal though and I can not guarantee he won’t throw me back into the woods and leave me there.He hasn’t said a word to me the whole walk back, and it wasn’t a short walk. I may have a bruise on my hip from his shoulder digging in. I keep trying to pry my legs apart, he has them clamped together and that and the motion of his shoulder is giving my cl*t the rubdown of a lifetime. I may come just riding his shoulder like this. He
58 - KennedyI leaned up against the glass trying to gain my breath and the use of my legs. Why have the two best s*xual encounters of my life been with a man who has barely touched me? When I regain the use of my legs and my senses, I strip and grab my favorite vibrator and get in the shower. Part of me hopes he hears it and part of me is embarrassed that he got to me so easily and really doesn’t want to inflate his ego.After three rounds of imagining all the different ways I could take Ryker in the shower, my body was finally spent. It’s amazing how vivid my imagination is when he is the subject. I may break the rechargeable battery if I keep this up. I crawl into bed and my mood quickly changes as I get ready for the dreams, hoping I’m too tired for them to be really bad.I have been alright so far, better than I thought anyway. My nightmares have morphed once again and this time I am not in the dream first hand, but watching from the outside as a spectator. The emotions don’t
59 - RykerI cannot get Amy off of me. I was so distracted coming down the stairs, I wasn’t paying attention to who was around. She’s like a freaking octopus with tentacles everywhere. I have had to use an alpha command on her twice to keep her hands to herself, but she seems to just enjoy the power move and the pain she gets from disobeying. I shouldn’t have to command her at all and I don’t like using it on pack members, but I think I am going to have to make an exception now. She’s been getting bolder in her defiance of my instructions.I immediately saw Kennedy’s face when we walked in. I know I’m a hypocrite when I told her to stay away from my guys. And now it seems whenever she sees me there is a woman hanging off of me or I’m yelling at her. Bennet is just as confused, but he’s blocked me for now and won’t let me explain. My mate has him whipped and that makes my wolf growl at the thought. Is she interested in him beyond friendship like Jeremiah’s beta? Can she change her
60 - KennedyI have to make the best of this. It’s been weeks and I haven’t left the packhouse or seen Ryker at all. My usual stubborn side has been stuffed way back into my mind because I don’t want to get any of the warriors in trouble again. Who knows what Ryker did to them last time, but none of them talk to me anymore and I haven’t seen Jensen since the attack. I can’t ask anyone about it, even though I’m not really ever alone, someone is always lurking around. Their punishments were enough to make them keep their distance. I can call Jeremiah and Rayna now. But this has proven to be a bigger problem. I can’t tell them the whole truth. Jeremiah can see bullsh*t a mile away, especially mine. We have never been able to lie to each other, so I have to come up with creative half truths about my time here. At least Rayna could back up my story about not having my phone because it was being checked by an IT team. I guess her brother has always been extra cautious with electronics.
61 - RykerI have been tracking all of Kennedy’s calls and text messages. She seems to be telling the truth. She has only messaged my sister and Jeremiah from her old pack and Robin and Bennet here. All the messages have been short and to the point. She calls Jeremiah more than she texts, which makes sense based on what I know of their relationship. The calls never last more than ten minutes though, which I do think is odd. Bennet doesn’t respond to her unless necessary and most of the time it's ‘I’ll check with the Alpha.’ He knows I’m monitoring, so maybe he just converses with her face to face. He hasn’t said much to me either since her attack. Until last night. Last night I got a front row seat to his opinion of my treatment of her. Which is why I’m on my current Kennedy rabbit hole.“ALPHA!”“What?!” I yell back at Josh. He’s been more crabby recently too.“Will you stop stalking your mate and help me with this?”“I am not stalking her and you seem to be just fine on your
62 - KennedyI have been enjoying my time better in this pack. Sarah has been so amazing, she knows so much about the history and the way the pack works. I wonder if she is like an elder or something. It’s been a long time since I have laughed this much and I am loving every second. She has no filter and tells everyone like it is, but with the kindest heart I have ever seen.“So then they were all running naked to the packhouse like their tails were on fire!.” Sarah finishes her story about Ryker, Josh, Bennet and Danny when they were about ten and I am laughing so hard I almost fall out of my chair. Robin is slightly more dignified, but she has probably heard this story before.“I wish I could hear more stories like this. With so many elders here I’m sure there is so much more history I could learn about his pack. It is so big and wonderful, it’s like nothing I have experienced before.” I can’t even hide my fascination with Dark Moon. The more I learn, the more I want to know. I
63 -KennedyAs I watch, I know when Bennet found me. Maybe my assumptions weren’t that far off. I can feel his presence like pressure from a storm. It pushes against me from whatever direction he’s hiding from me. He’s behind me to my right. Probably behind a tree. I don’t even have to look to know. A constant, always here, always watching, just not close enough to be a comfort. Then it hits me. A sensation I haven’t felt in a long time. I stop breathing, thinking maybe I have finally lost my mind looking for that connection since I got here. I blink slowly concentrating on the pressure coming from my left. Then the scent hits me, rosemary and mint. He’s here, when I finally am ready to give him up, he shows up.I take another deep breath to stifle a sob, blink again and keep my eyes forward. I’m torn between the need to know what he’s up to and wanting to run away. I have barely had eye contact with him since the incident with Amy in the breakfast room. I don’t know what he could
13- FinnI switched out with Greta about two hours ago. It’s the middle of the night and she let me rest for a long time. It hit me too late, it’s because she’s a control freak. This girl cannot be more wound up. I am going to have to talk with Danny about ways to medicate her uptight ass. This is not the hard part. These rogues either aren’t who we are looking for and our information is bad, or they are onto the fact that Rory is looking into them and they are playing nice for now. I don’t know why she thinks we need a bulletpointed plan of every move we make before doing anything. She’s the definition of analysis paralysis. I don’t care how hot she is, she’s crazy and I have had enough of that to last me a lifetime.If it was just me, I would have done a sweep around the perimeter already to get a better idea of numbers. I know how to hide my scent and I’m not officially in a pack so even if they came across my scent they probably wouldn’t think anything of it. But, I can’t mid
12 - GretaDamn, this guy is annoying. We have been walking for about forty-five minutes and he hasn’t said a thing to me. He was supposed to be explaining the terrain to me, not taking a leisurely stroll.“Finn!” I whisper yell. “What are you doing? We need a plan and to scout properly. Talk to me. What are we doing?” I take a quiet jog to catch up to him.“I am taking you to the part of the stream we used to collect water. I didn’t think you needed a play by play. There hasn’t been anyone traveling through here. I can smell that much. You can smell that much. We don’t need to discuss it.” He shrugs his shoulders and continues walking. “As a trained warrior, I assume you can make basic observations on your own.”I hold back a growl. “How many people were housed in the area you cleared? Did you have any specific paths you followed? How long were you here? We need to plan what we will do if we get separated or if we end up in a fight.”“That is probably something you should hav
Sorry for the absence. My whole house got sick, but my son just couldn't kick the usual flu/cold/slime that flows through the public school system this time of year. After 2 weeks of tests and negative results for basically everything, but still spiking high fevers every couple of days we finally figured out he had pneumonia. It has been a wild couple of weeks, but I think we are back on track. This is the first time in two weeks I have touched my laptop. I'm going to take my free time the next couple days to get caught up with Finn and Greta's story. I have missed them.
11 - Greta“Sleeping arrangements don’t matter right now, Rookie. We have to get to work. I have a rough idea of where the attacking rogues are hiding out. Rory’s guys haven’t chased them too far past their borders out of fear of it being a trap. They aren’t equipped to handle an ambush right now.” I drop my bag by the tiny table in the kitchen area. As much as I will fight him on it, Finn was not too far off suggesting the cabin might have the toilet and the bed in the same space. It is tiny in here. I’m sure this cabin is built for one guy to stay overnight.I start digging for the map Gunner gave me. When I find it I dump my bag on the floor and spread the map out on the table. “You gonna join me or what?” I look over my shoulder and Finn is just watching. What he’s looking at is anyone’s guess, but he doesn’t seem to be in any hurry to help either. With all his talk about wanting to prove himself, he seems to not care now that he found a bed. Whatever.I look at the map G
10 - Finn“We made a path to get to the Dark Moon pack, Alpha Rory.” “Wait! You were a part of the group that attacked Ryker and Kennedy?!” The entire room erupts in low growls. I stand my ground. My only reaction is the tension in my muscles, ready for someone to attack. I try to keep my face calm, not uncaring or arrogant, just not hostile. This is why I have no idea why I am here. I am only ever going to be known as the leader of the pack that tried, and failed, to attack Ryker’s pack. I expect to be interrogated and not trusted.“Hey! Gunner. Kade. Knock it off. Ryker vetted him and he has been working with us for six months. It’s why he is here. That and he clearly got past all of you without being noticed.” She places herself between the beta, delta and me. I can’t help the shock I feel. Did Greta just defend me? “That’s where we should start then.” She looks at Rory, like nothing hostile was about to go down. He nods. “Is there any other info we need to get started?”
9 - Greta“What did he mean ‘it sounds like,’ Josh?” I look over at the Beta, knowing full well he gives Ryker a play by play of anything going on in the pack and he’s too damn observant for his own good.“Exactly what he said, Greta” He clips my name sarcastically. “You two need to get over whatever this,” He waves between Finn and I, “is, and learn how to work together. You both are very talented. Stop fighting each other and focus those efforts on something more productive. Now go pack up. You have a two hour drive to check in with Rory and then another hour out to the cabin. Grant has your SUV out front.”He turns and walks away after that, no other words. Just Finn and I here alone. “This should be fun.” Finn steps past me towards the car. “You wanna drive, control freak?” He smiles over his shoulder.Oh yeah, super fun. I jog around to the driver’s side. At least Finn has caught onto one thing. I am in charge of this mission. We hit my place first. “Just wait here. It wi
8 - GretaI don’t know what it is about this guy, but he bugs the sh*t out of me. I watch him fight day after day, because he doesn’t seem to have anything else to add to the pack. He shows up late, doesn’t follow the rules or any of the protocols I set. Yet he continues to win in his fights against some of the best warriors I have trained, so I can’t really discipline him.“Do it again.” I call out, trying to sound bored. I am really interested to see if I can break him today. “Try to work the moves correctly this time, Rookie.”“If I am winning, does the perfect execution really matter, ma’am?” He taunts not taking his eyes off of Bobby, his current opponent.“Only if you are too big of a p*ssy to execute it correctly. I just assume you are compensating for a lack in other skills.” That gets his attention. I nod to Bobby who lunges at Finn’s unprotected side.They both roll, but his reaction skills are unmatched. The problem is his fighting technique is crude at best, but their
7-FinnSix months. It has been six months since the fight and Claude and Amy were killed in action along with many of their followers. We have been allowed to stay, even me, which seems insane.We helped rebuild the area we set on fire and in return, we have been given housing in the apartments that went up above the shops. We have not gone without a meal and everyone is settling into new jobs and finding their place in the pack. Everyone except me.I have started training with the warriors, but the strict schedule and rules and protocols all rub me the wrong way. I have been doing this on my own since I was six. I get up when I want, train when and the way I want, and eat when I can find enough food for everyone. This ‘be here on time sh*t’ is getting old and it’s stifling.“Thanks for joining us, Rookie.” Greta calls over to me. I ignore her jibe and walk to the back of the group.I have kept as much distance as I can from the hot warrior, but I won’t be able to do that forever
6 - FinnChaos breaks loose around us. Kennedy still has Amy in her hands. The hot warrior next to me leans down and growls. “Don’t make me regret this, warrior. Show us what you are really made of.”The next thing I know my cuffs are off and she takes off into the fray. She let me go, just like that. What the f*ck? I don’t think on it too long before I get up and join the fight. Claude has his guys here and these assholes can’t fight worth sh*t. Not against me anyway. I look at my mate one more time. She pleads with her eyes for me to help her, but I can’t care. She’s selfish and won’t choose me if I do save her. I know she said that she accepts my rejection, but I still feel the pull to her. So it either didn’t work or there are some lasting effects. Who knows, but that is the last thought I give to her as I run off to help the Dark Moon pack against these wannabe warriors.Claude must be desperate because his right-hand b*tch is here fighting and not up his ass as usual. I head
