I thought because of what happened a couple of nights ago, Ares accepted Carson. Letting us be together. Having both of my mates by my side, the mates chosen by the goddess herself. Ares made sure Carson was busy, he sent him to one of his packs. He said that there was a conflict there and Carson had to stay to resolve it. I had a feeling it was a load of crap. He just wanted Carson out of the way. Making sure we couldn’t be together. Every day was getting more difficult to be without him. But Ares didn’t seem to care how much it pained me. I knew he wanted me for himself. He did try his best, taking me out to dinner. Making sure everything was perfect. But it could never be perfect without Carson. Because of the distance between me and Carson, we couldn’t even mind link. We did text each other every day. But it was not the same. I wanted to hear his voice, feel him in my mind. I was having lunch with Liza, she kept saying loving words about Ares. How much she likes us together. “
I lifted her up and took her to my bedroom. She couldn’t resist me anymore. Finally, she’s mine. I tossed her on my bed, making her whine in response. She clawed her way back to me. Eagerly she kissed me again, her fingers roamed over my body. She started undressing me. She wasn’t holding back anymore, and neither would I. Her fingers made a path through my chest, moving down. The tingles emerged everywhere she touched. Making me moan out of pleasure. My member was already throbbing in anticipation. We needed to have her now, claiming her. Claiming what is ours. I gently pushed her on her back, kissing her roughly. I pressed myself between her legs, pushing them further open with my body. She pressed herself against my hardened length while a moan left her lips. Vibrating around my tongue. A small piece of guilt lingered in my mind. Am I making the right call by taking her in this state? I want her to want me for me, not because of the concoction. I knew the concoction wouldn’t las
Unknown POVI screamed and screamed. Destroying everything in my path. They have found each other. After all these decades, they found each other. NO! They don’t deserve happiness. I know I promised not to interfere. But I can't let her be with him. She was supposed to be mine. She was my wife. She betrayed me. She doesn’t deserve a happy ending. NEVER!Aphrodite, I’m coming for you and this time there will be no loop hole. No one to save you from my wrath. You and Ares will never be safe again. I will make sure you never set foot on Mount Olympus. NEVER!She belongs to me! I thought it would bring me peace, having her live her life as a mortal. Not finding love, over and over again.It’s time to take matters into my own hands, but first I need to find a vessel.
We sat down in my office; annoyance was written all over my face. I hate when Alpha’s come by unannounced. I wanted to go back to my mate. The whole conversation I had the feeling he was stalling. “Why do you think he is really here?” I asked Carson through the mind link. “No idea, there are no wars brewing. As far as I know. He’s stalling,” Carson replied. I was glad he noticed it as well. I thought maybe it was my mind playing tricks on me. Alpha Smith kept talking about small pack matters, those that are not any of my concerns. I lifted my hand up, signaling to stop talking. “Why are you here?” I said with a small growl vibrating through my chest. My patience has its limits Alpha Smith cleared his throat, trying to hide something. His discomfort or was it something else. He looked to Carson and then back to. Me before continuing, “it has come to my attention that you have someone here…” his eyes roamed the room once more before his nose tried to pick up a scent. The growl
I kept a close look on Alpha Smith when he took Liza into the gardens. I sent one of my guards to follow them. Making sure he wouldn’t harm Liza. Well, that is what I told Jamie. I hoped he could eavesdrop on their conversation. I still had a weird feeling about this. “They do look cute together, don’t you think,” Jamie said while snuggling against me. I took a deep breath, inhaling her scent. Letting it calm me. “I don’t trust him.” She looked up at me, and a small glimpse of confusion lingered in her eyes. But she didn’t say a word. Carson came toward us, putting an arm around her waist. I tried my best to control myself, I should give it a chance. But the only thing I wanted to do was push him away. Carson noticed and released Jamie’s waist. Making a whine leave her lips. I sighed, before nodding to Carson. His arm was around her waist before I could even blink twice. I told Jamie that Carson and I needed to handle some pack business. I assigned her a bodyguard, just to be sa
Ares POVI have sent some scouts to Alpha Smith's pack, to keep an eye on things. He never seemed to be the kind of man who drops everything to meet his mate here. Why didn't he take her to his pack when he met her? I was working in my office, with Carson beside me. He kept moving restlessly in his chair. He was slowly getting on my nerves. "Can you please stop moving," I said with a growl. He froze on the spot before he sighed, "when can I mark my mate?" We both stared at each other for a moment. Before I could answer there was a soft knock on the door, saving me from this conversation. "Come in." Jamie entered with a beaming smile on her face, one that made my love for her grow. I didn't notice at first. But when I saw the bruise on her jaw, a vicious growl left my lips. I was beside her in a second, holding her face to the side. "Who did this?" I tried my best to hide my anger. But my body started trembling from the rage moving through me. "Ow it's nothing, I wanted to t
Jamie POVI looked at him, letting him see and feel all the love I have for him. "I love you. You are my mate. My everything. But no, I won't reject Carson. He is also a part of me. Maybe if you mark him, you will feel better. He has no intention of taking me away from you. He has been very patient. And so have I. Will you think about it? We both love you and we are waiting for you" I said to Ares. He has to know how much he means to me, but he can't push me away from Carson. He has to accept the bond I share with him. I will never be complete, without Carson by my side. I need them both. "I need some time, but I know how much it means to you," he said before giving me a soft kiss. I have to be strong and not let myself be carried away again. His touch makes me go crazy, wanting more of him every time. But I need to wait and be patient. If I continue to act like there is nothing wrong, he won't change. "Before I forget, Liza wants Alpha Smith to stay a little longer. She isn't
I was sitting on the couch in Ares's office. I could feel my arousal rising at the sight of my beautiful mates. Both are perfect in their own way. I unbuttoned my jeans before sliding my hand inside and moving my finger in circular motions over my sensitive bud. I saw a smirk form on Carson's face before his eyes met mine. "Naughty little kitten," he said through the mind link. A moan left my lips at the sound of his voice in my mind. I could hear a small growl coming from Ares. Not one of anger but one of need. I met his eyes, filled with lust. I bit my bottom lip in response. "Do you want any help with that?" Ares asked playfully. "No, I'm.." Before I could finish my sentence a squeal left my lips when Carson pulled my jeans down and ripped my panties off. I could hear him say, "MINE." His voice made my arousal rise even more. He placed himself between my legs, pulling me closer to him. He pushed his tongue inside me before making a straight line toward my sensitive bud a
Jamie POV Years had passed in the blink of an eye, and I was happier than ever. All the struggles we went through, were worth it in the end. I was immensely grateful, that Ares choose this life with us, instead of power. That he choose this mortal life, instead of moving back to the god's lands. “Not so fast, you two,” I yelled after Kaitlin and Nathanial, who seemed to be ignoring me while they increased their pace. I softly caressed my bump, enjoying the sight of my rascals. How could you love someone so much that it almost hurts, was more than I could ever wish for. “Happy birthday, love,” Ares whispered, wrapping his arms around me and resting his head on my shoulder, inhaling deeply. “Have I told you how much I love you?” He asked while his lips brushed over his mark, making a pleasurable shiver move through my body, awakening my core. “Hmm, maybe you should remind me,” I murmured. “Knock it off, you two,” Ripley’s voice snapped us out of our moment, and I couldn’t h
With hollowed cheeks, I let Carson gently trust inside my mouth. His pace was slow and deep, making my sexual frustration rise. I glanced up, and I almost came when I saw Caron’s parted lips and flushed cheeks. Fuck, he looks so delicious. I tried to pick up my pace, but the hold he had on me, made it impossible. There was no way I could hold back the orgasm that was crawling at the surface. I whimpered and moaned around Carson’s cock when Ares picked up his pace, attaching my sensitive clit until my body shattered, and my juices spilled out. I was a mess, riding the aftershocks of my orgasm, when Carson’s pulled himself out of me and gently brushed his thumb over my lips. “Perfect,” he said. I took a couple of deep breaths, trying to calm my body, but the moment of peace was quickly stopped when Ares claimed my lips, making sure I would taste myself on his tongue. Our position changed, without parting our lips. He lifted me in his arms, and I instantly wrapped my legs around his
Ares POV The moment Carson stepped inside, his eyes slowly wandered over my naked body. “Is this your plan? How is this going…” he stopped midsentence when he realized what the plan was. “How didn’t I come up with that sooner,” he mumbled more to himself than me. “Do you need help getting undressed?” I asked, pulling him back to the present. A small blush formed on his cheeks while he tauntingly slow started to remove his clothes. “We have to make sure she feels it right?” he asked with a hint of mischief in his eyes. Of course, this wasn’t going to be quick. I knew they were at it for hours to make sure I felt it when I wanted to kill Aegon. I groaned when he stood before me, naked. Who would have thought I would fall in love with another man? I closed the distance between us and brushed my fingers over his throat, while this need to choke him while fucking him senseless came into mind. My cock twitched because of the thought. I licked my lips before I pressed them on his
Ares POV “How much longer?” I roared for the millionth time. It has been two agonizing weeks. Jamie still hadn’t woken up, and the longer she stayed like this, the more I worried she would never wake up. “Alpha, I don’t know. The poison has left her system, and her wolf is fine. I don’t know why she won’t wake up,” her voice trembled with every word she spoke. “Isn’t there anything I can do?” I was desperate. This feeling was almost worse than the feeling I had when her soul was trapped in that world Hephaestus created. “You can try to reach her through the bond by pushing heightened emotions through it. Terrible fear, rage. As long as the emotion is strong enough, it could wake her up,” Matina said with care. I slowly nodded, and she left without another word. We hadn’t closed off our bond to Jamie, so she must feel our despair and fear. And seeing she wasn’t waking up, it wasn’t enough. “I know,” Gideon said, sounding smug. “Care to share?” There was a moment of silence whi
Carson POV I could feel myself becoming stronger with every passing second, but the pain remained. I knew it wasn’t my own that I felt. It was Jamie’s. My heart ached for her. All I wanted was to hold her in my arms. However, she only had eyes for our pups, and I can’t blame her. They looked so peaceful in her arms. As if nothing had happened. I softly brushed my finger over Nathaniel's cheek, letting the warmth of his skin seep into mine. “Do you want to hold him,” Jamie whispered. She didn’t have to say that twice. I picked up Nathaniel and let him rest against my chest. I hated that I was covered in blood, my own and Aegon’s. “Are you tired?” I asked Jamie when I noticed her eyes slowly closing. She only hummed in response before she fell asleep. I could feel her becoming weaker. The feeling alone made a tear stream down my face. Ares gently grabbed Kaitlin before he let Jamie rest against him. “We’re going to make it,” he whispered, but the fear in his eyes. The worry behi
Ares POV My breath hitched in the back of my throat when I saw what Jamie was about to do. I didn’t want her to drown in the darkness. She shouldn’t be the one that takes their lives. Aegon wasn’t strong enough to help Charlotte fight the command. He didn’t even respond to Jamie’s truthful words. He knew they made a mistake going down this path. A mistake that would cost both of their lives. “Jamie, let me do it,” I whispered when I stood beside her with our pups in my arms. “No, I made a promise, and I’m keeping myself to that,” she hissed while her eyes remained locked on Charlotte and Aegon. I didn’t know what she commanded next, but the change in the air told me enough. My eyes snapped to Charlotte, and before either of us knew what was about to happen, her claws formed on her free hand, and she pushed her claws through Aegon’s chest. Aegon cried out in agony while a stray tear moved down Charlotte’s cheek. Aegon had to release his grip on the hand she still had on her throa
Jamie POV Rage. All-consuming rage. My blood was boiling while my skin tightened. How dare she? It all happened in the blink of an eye; I was thrown against Carson while I felt something puncture my side. I coughed rapidly to get the air I desperately needed. The scent of my own blood surrounded me, and I knew I was injured. But I had to push forward. I pushed myself off Carson and let the same pull as before lead me to my pups. There was no escaping me at this point, and I would have back what was mine. I sprinted out of the room and headed into the forest. Before I even realized Ripley’s wolf running beside me. Ares and Carson’s concerned voices filled my mind, but still, I wouldn’t slow down my strides. “I need you to take out the witch. Otherwise, I can’t command Charlotte,” I told Ripley. Ripley lunged for Tara when Charlotte was about to step inside a car. Ares and Carson stood next to me before another breath could leave my lips. Tara screamed at the top of her lungs w
Ares POV The turmoil in my mind slowly settled when all I could feel was rage and this primal need to protect what is mine. We were hiding in the shadows outside of Charlotte's packhouse, waiting for her warriors to leave. Still, we would be outnumbered, but our odds were better with fifty of her warriors gone. “They are here,” Jamie mumbled. Only when my gaze met hers did I notice the glimmer that moved over her eyes. It wasn't the same as I saw her wolf press forward, but something else. I took her hand in mine and gave it a reassuring squeeze. One that we both needed. The soft rustling around us made me freeze on the spot until Carson’s scent wafted around me. “We can use the tunnel. It’s unguarded. It doesn’t seem she knows we were coming here,” Carson whispered. No one spoke another word when we turned around and let Carson lead us to the underground tunnel. The same we used when we ran away from Hephaestus We still had to choose which of Charlotte’s pack houses we shoul
Ares POVIt took us longer than I wanted, but the moment we stepped over the border, Jamie’s voice echoed inside my mind.“Did you find them?”I wanted to tell her that we did, but we only had a lead. “We are going to Litochoro.”Carson was in charge of gathering the warriors while I made my way to the packhouse. I was in desperate need of holding my mate in my arms and when I heard her voice inside my mind seconds ago, I knew she needed me too.I quickly shifted back and rushed inside. When my gaze met hers, a small smile formed on her lips. After I put some clothes on, I made my way to her and wrapped my arms around her small frame.“Are you okay?” I whispered while I held her close.“The poison is… I had some trouble with my sight, but now that you’re here, I’m fine,” she said with a small smile that did nothing for the pain that roamed through her eyes.I didn’t know what to say, but I’m glad that my presence helps her wolf fight the poison.“We are leaving in fifteen minutes. I’m
