“Rubble?” my bottom lip started to quiver, and I had to quickly bite down on it before anyone noticed. I hate that Rodger was destroying his home, everyone’s home because of me. It was my home too. The first place I ever truly felt free. My stupid fucking choices took that home away from everyone. “I never should have come to Broom StiXXX,” I murmured, burying my face in my arms, heartbroken for everyone’s loss, especially Rodgers.Sparks burst on my back as two different hands started to rub along my shoulders at the same time. One was hesitant and one was more forward, messaging my tissue deeply. The other hand disappeared a second later, and I felt Mick’s breath in my ear. “Don’t say that, cara mia. Please.”“Yeah, Chloe. No one blames you,” Cindy said. “Shit happens. That’s how we all ended up at Broom StiXXX to begin with.”“We can always buy a new building,” Beau said. “We can’t replace you.” Beau then gasped. “Wait, my PS4?”“In my trunk,” Alexi informed him. “I knew better tha
Chloe POVCortina ran for about twenty minutes, relishing the feel of the moist living dirt under her claws and the fresh scent of pine running through her fur, when we felt the thudding of another beast free in the forest. She pushed herself harder, not sure if the paws were from guards or some other beast, but not wanting to find out. No matter how hard she pushed herself, the thundering thrum of the creature kept getting closer and closer.Then, Cortina started sniffing the air and suddenly came to a stop. She lifted her snout in the air, taking long mouthwatering inhales of the air as the pounding of feet got louder and louder. She stared at a fixed point between two juniper trees, hankering down like she was anchoring herself, ready for whoever it was to break through the shrubs.Suddenly, a large, muscular dark gray wolf leaped over a large fern, steam blowing from his nostrils as he came to a stop. His vivid blue eyes were as sharp as his human’s. I knew who the wolf was right
“So, if I…. If I didn’t, you know, become your mate, would your elders push you to take another she-wolf as a Luna again?”Miles didn’t answer right away, and the tension I felt radiating behind me caused me to look back. Because of the tension, I expected to see him angry at the prospect of being rejected, but he just looked deeply sad. It made me stop in my tracks, reaching out to touch him, wanting to do anything to make that face go away.“I….” he looked down at my hand on his arm. I was about to pull away, feeling like I may have pushed some boundary, but then he placed his hand over mine. “I don’t want to take another mate, Chloe. I don’t….. I don’t want anyone else but you.”My heart hurt so bad, feeling like I was stuck between a rock and a hard place. I liked Miles. I really did, but Mick was already my mate. I didn’t know what to do.“Mick didn’t want to share,” I said meekly. “Even though I….. I don’t…… Even if I could stand to be a Luna again,” I said, instead of admitting
Driana POV “In other news, a nightclub known for its male exotic dancers is quite literally left in shambles after an electrical fire started late Saturday night. Once the fire reached the gas line it-“ “Turn that off, Paulina! That’s all you’ve been watching all day.” She looked up and clicked her gums at me, a glimmer in her eyes. I chuckled. “Yes. I’m proud of our brother too, but we have important matters to address ourselves now.” I lifted the glass bottle of our niece’s blood from the butcher block counter, holding it to the firelight to examine the flecks of glowing magic dispersed in her blood. It wasn’t active magic, so it needed the help of fire to be seen. Paulina began clicking her gums, wondering if I was sure it was time. “Yes, it’s time. She’s loved. Rodger had seen it with his own eyes, so there is nothing more to confirm.” She rolled her eyes and clicked her gums again. I sighed and nodded. “I understand your concern. We will see for ourselves
Staring into at myself, I started to feel inadequate. I’m skinny, with a flatter body than Chloe and the other woman I saw at the gate. I definitely do not have muscles like Chloe either. I noticed at the bar when she was working that she was curvy but strong. Her shirt would ride up a lot and you could see her abs. She would lug around heavy crates of liquor and beer without a struggle too. I’m skinny, with no abilities or exceptional features. The only remarkable thing about me is that somehow I’m now being loved by two amazing men. Two amazing men that I couldn’t even satisfy last night. Memories of Darren trying to take me while Billy was already inside me made a wave of shame wash over me. I had a slight panic attack and ruined the mood for both of them. I was a virgin less than a week ago. Now I have two men trying to put their enormous things in me at the same time. I didn’t think it was even possible to take Darren inside me when I first saw him. It took me until morni
Darren looked worried, but nodded with a sigh. “I know. I want you to know that this was for work and nothing else, Taylor. There was nothing romantic or special about it.” “What?” I am starting to feel worried now. “Well, about Chloe…. She would know. She, uh, did a gig with me once with another man.” My mouth dropped. I knew that Darren had done porn before. He told me, and I figured he did stuff like that, being a stripper and all. I just didn’t know it was with Chloe. “It was just business, Tink,” Darren grabbed my face. “I promise there was nothing there. Ever. It was business and done.” “I saw some of the videos when I was clearing cyber trails. It wasn’t romantic at all. Looked like two porn stars doing work,” Billy kissed the side of my face. “I deleted all the evidence too, so it’s like it never happened.” I was chewing on my lip, not sure how to feel about hearing the woman that brought me and Darren together slept with him in the past. She did porn with
Hey guys! Everyone in my group has been aware of my personal life and the shitstorm it has been the past week, but for those of you not in my group, I just wanted to let you know, updates for the next week won't be as frequent. Thanksgiving and the kids being home from school, on top of our home recovering from Covid and my emergency with my dog, we are going to be busy as heck. We have two more surgeries for our dog this week, and have to get the house completely disinfected and then treated for pests (dog got bitten by a brown recluse) before extended family comes to stay with us on Wednesday. Then we have the usual Thanksgiving stuff. As soon as I can kick my family out next weekend, and send my freeloaders back to school, updates should return to normal again. (normal is 6-8 chapters a week). Sorry guys!
Mick POV“Damn,” I muttered under my breath, watching from the top of the hill overlooking the training field while Chloe sparred with one of the warriors below. He was three times her size, but she was able to beat him in just a few moves. She tossed him over her shoulder like a sack of flour. He hasn’t gotten back up yet and looks to be having a hard time breathing. She’s just standing with her hip out, looking cocky and very sexy in her little training shorts and one of my tank tops.This has been our routine the past three days. Chloe would wake up extra early to train with the warriors and I would watch from the hill.Being a warrior suits her as well as being a Luna. Watching her the past couple of days as she interacted with the pack, bridging the gap between them and our Broom StiXXX family, I can see more than ever why the goddess fated her to be a Luna twice. She hasn’t agreed to mate my brother yet, but I can already see that she would be an asset to him and the pack.“So t
