His fingers trailed a path over my neck, to my shoulder and slowly moved further down until he twirled them around my nipple. I moaned when Carson captured my lips with his while Ares continue teasing me with his small delicate touches. “I want you riding my cock when I mark you.” Ares whisper made my core clench while a blush formed on my cheeks. Ares gently tugged on my nipple making me part my lips from Carson’s. When my eyes met his, a shiver moved down my spine. I took a deep breath before I position myself. I held his gaze while I slowly lowered myself on his cock. Letting my walls smoothly wrap around it. My breath hitched in the back of my throat while my lips slowly parted. His eyes briefly flickered to his wolf while his canines formed. Carson gently pulled my hair to the side and I tilted my head while my eyes remained locked with Ares. I started to move my hips back and forth making a breathy moan escape my lips. Ares moved closer until I felt his warm breath fanning
Days had passed and we were still waiting patiently to hear what the verdict is. However, my mind couldn’t wander about that for too long. Today was the day we were going to the pack doctor. The only thing Jamie did at the moment was eat, sleep, and be horny. Don’t get me wrong, I’m not complaining. However, it did hurt my ego a bit when she fell asleep during one of our sessions. I don’t think she even remembers, but it will be something that would haunt me till the end of times. “You’re so extra sometimes,” Gideon huffed inside my mind. “Says you.” My eyes rolled in annoyance before I focused back on the nervous taps of Carson’s feet hitting the waiting room floor. “Miss Jones?” A nurse called out, making me growl in response. Jamie slapped my thigh before narrowing her eyes at me. “We aren’t married,” she said and got up to follow the nurse. Since when isn’t marking enough? I shook my head and quickly followed behind her with Carson beside me. Before we could follow inside
Ares POVMy eyes fluttered open when the first rays of sun prickled my eyes. I was tangled between my mates; the sight alone made my heart swell.I slowly and carefully freed myself from their embrace and quickly got ready for my meeting with the elders.And besides my meeting with the elders, I knew it was just a matter of time before Luna Charlotte shows up to get what I promised her. Without my deal with her, I wouldn’t be here.Ripley was already waiting by the car when I walked out of the house.“Were you afraid I wouldn’t show?” I asked with a small laugh.He shook his head with a sigh and opened the door for me. I narrowed my eyes at him and kept a close eye on him.I knew he would do everything in his power to keep Jamie safe. However, I do believe he doesn’t tell us everything.It took us a good thirty minutes before we arrived at what seemed a packhouse. Without wasting any time, Ripley parked the car and went to the door. The omegas that were working around the packhouse fr
Carson POV I slowly woke up to the adorable snores that came from Jamie. A small smile formed on my lips while I pulled her closer. The sound of Rhys’ purrs resonated from her chest making my wolf suddenly wake up. “Don’t tease me,” Jamie whispered against my bare chest. Her warm breath made goosebumps rise on my skin. “My insatiable little wolf,” I murmured. I took her hand in mine and brought it to my lips. Softly pressing them against her palm and again on her wrist. The sounds of her soft moans filled the room, making my cock throb. I don’t know how much time we have before Ares is back, but I need to taste her. My lips continued trailing a path to my destination. Her back arched when my lips latched around one of her nipples. I pressed her down with my hand and sucked hard. She almost whimpered when my teeth grazed over it. My lips latched around her other nipple, giving it the same attention it needed. The sweet intoxicating scent of her arousal filled my nostrils. Without
Jamie POV My emotions were getting the better of me thanks to these stupid hormones. Carson held me in his embrace, trying to soothe my aching heart. “I know you’re mad at Ares, but at least he told the truth,” Carson whispered. I wiped the tears from my cheeks before I met Carson's soft gaze. “I had it with his lies. He still hasn’t told us everything.” “What do you mean?” He gently wiped the stray tear off my cheek. I don’t know if I should tell him, but if I didn’t wouldn’t I be the same as Ares? “He may or may not have put something in my drink when you were away. It resulted in me marking him,” I whispered, not wanting Ares to hear that I knew this entire time what he did that night. I didn’t regret sleeping with him or marking him. However, I hated that he did that to me. It didn’t take me long to figure it out. When I asked the staff to show me how to make that cocktail I had, I noticed it didn’t taste the same. Only when I kept on pestering them about it did they t
Jamie POV Days had passed and we hadn’t heard from Ares. I hope he is doing okay. I wasn’t the only one who was having trouble with Ares’s absence. Carson was changing into a completely different person. I thought Ares had possessive tendencies, but Carson wins in that department at the moment. I can't even take a shower alone anymore. Now that I started showing, he was walking around me on eggshells. Growling at everyone who even glances in my direction. Today he was invited to come train with the red wolves. After some nagging, he accepted the invitation. I was in desperate need of some alone time and I was working on a surprise for him and Ares, but he needed to be out of the house for me to set everything up. “Are you ready to go?” My eyebrows furrowed together while a half smile curled on my lips. “I’m not going, you are going alone.” He narrowed his eyes at me, and his upper lips twitched slightly. “You tricked me. I’m not going without you. What if something happens wh
My eyes met Ripley briefly. “An alliance,” I said to Charlotte. She narrowed her eyes at me, knowing I wasn’t telling her everything. “Cut the crap, Ares. What do they want?!” “The leader of the red wolves wants the throne. If you don’t meet with him, he will kill you and Jamie,” I said with a sigh. There are two ways you can claim the throne as your own. One, you kill the king or queen and claim it. Two, you are the heir to the throne. I killed the red wolf king many years ago and claimed it and now Charlotte can only claim it as hers because she carries my blood. These rules were set up by the red wolves. Aegon can only be king by killing Charlotte or taking her as his chosen mate. A wicked smile formed on her lips, one that made the hairs on the back of my neck rise. “So, if I meet him, I will die. And if I don’t, I will die.” “Pretty much.” I shrugged. I still wasn’t going to betray her. I just hoped she would come back with us on her own. “Or… you two are mates,” Rip
Ares POVWhen we finally crossed the border of the red wolf territory, I could feel the bond becoming stronger. I took a deep breath and enjoyed feeling my mates without trouble.Ripley and I gave each other one last glance, both hoping the plan would work. A blond she-wolf followed after us. She was supposed to stand in for Charlotte. Aegon hadn’t met Charlotte before, so he wouldn’t know how she looked.The plan was simple, the she-wolf would meet with Aegon with me and Ripley beside her to see what Aegon would do. I feared he would kill without even trying to speak with her.I halted in my tracks when I felt Jamie’s fear rush through me. Something was up. I looked at Ripley, while worry roamed through my eyes.I hated that I couldn’t mind link with Jamie or Carson. Not anymore. A shiver moved down my spine when I felt Carson’s pain coursing through the bond.I need to get to my mates, right now!“I have to go, something is wrong with my mates,” I told Ripley. When he met my concer
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
