Alpha Mars' POV I grab her by the waist to lift her into my lap. She straddles me as we sit on the barstool face to face. Her breasts pressed up against my muscular chest. Our lips are locked in a tangle of lust and desire. She wraps her arms around my neck to pull me closer to her.I can smell her arousal, and it’s starting to kill me with the need for this bombshell of a sexy goddess! I grab her plump delectable butt cheeks and squeeze roughly. She whimpers against my lips. I push and pull her hips to slowly start grinding against my hard groin. “Oh, fuck baby girl!” If I am not careful, I am going to take her right here in the kitchen.I let my hand trace down the side of her body and under her shirt. Holy shit, she isn’t wearing a bra. Why didn’t I notice it when she was showing me her tattoo? I cup a plump breast to knead and palm it with my rough callus hands. Moving my fingers over her pebbled nipple, gently squeezing it. She drops her head back and moans out my name. “Owen!”
Ciara’s POV ‘Ciara, I need you to wake up.’ My eyes flutter open to the sound of Alpha Radar in my head. I picked up my phone to check the time. The light of the phone blinded me through my sleepy state. I see it’s only 2:00 am. I groan. What the hell? Didn’t I just fall asleep about an hour ago?‘Ciara, wake up; I have a mission for you and Maximo.’ Alpha Radar echoes in my head.‘Yeah, yeah, I am awake now. What’s going on?’ I sleepily mind-link him back. I roll over and see Owen sleeping peacefully next to me. For a moment, I had forgotten we decided to snuggle in my bed. We spent most of the night just chatting, before we fell asleep. His arm curled around my waist. The warmth of his body threatens me to fall back asleep. His features are relaxed and soft. The scowl gone; he looks so much younger when he is asleep. I want to kiss and touch his face, but Alpha Radar is ruining the moment with his stupid voice.‘I received an urgent message from the Meadow Lake pack that a group o
Ciara's POV “Axil, did you figure out how to get into the main house?” the scratchy voice guy asks.A throaty laugh reaches my ears from another voice. “Piece of cake. Fuckers didn’t even realize I entered the building. The house has three stories, all the family lives on the third floor. The kid’s room is the third window from the right. The one with the smaller balcony. Best part. No security alarm on the balcony doors. We can easily enter and exit through there.”“Good. The extraction team is already about 10 minutes out. We can use the tranquilizer needle to knock the kid and any family members out.” Scratchy voice guy says.“Did you ever find out what the boss wants with the kid? This seems like a lot of work for a fucking stupid 10-year-old.” Another voice speaks.“Don’t ask questions; just do what you are told.” Scratchy voice guy barks.What do they want a kid for? This isn’t good. Maybe they are holding him for ransom? Maybe they are human traffickers! I read about the types
Ciara's POV “Ciara! Open your eyes, child!” A slap on my cheek shakes me awake from the depths of my mental brain fog. Through blinking eyes, I see Alpha Radar and Maximo standing over my blood-covered bear form. “Shift!” Alpha Radar booms at me. I comply, still laying on my back, naked as a baby bird.I sit up groaning, still not in my right mind. I try to lift my arm to rub my eyes, but I don’t feel anything. Damn, did I lose my arm! Will I be a three-legged animal for the rest of my life? I look to see my injured arm and shoulder dangling motionless against my side. The numbness is keeping me from moving properly.“The doctor is on his way to take the bullets out.” Maximo hands me a large shirt and shorts. He helps me slip them on before pulling me to feet.I look around and see warriors from the pack standing out conversing over what happened. The bodies of the military men piled up along the road. Then I remembered. “What happened to scratchy voice guy?”Maximo hands me a bottle
Alpha Mars' POV It’s been over two days since I last saw Ciara, and now, she isn’t answering my text messages or calls. Normally, I wouldn’t give a shit if a woman contacts me. This stupid connection with Ciara is something that is becoming difficult to ignore. The chemistry between us, I have never felt with anyone. We spent one night together, and I am thinking about her non-stop. We didn’t even have sex! I just enjoyed her company.Why am I so irritated that she isn’t answering her phone? Isn’t this a good thing? Cutting ties now rather than later? Asher growls in anger at the idea.‘Or! Maybe you are getting attached to our mate.’ Asher snickers at me. I roll my eyes. I refuse to argue again with my wolf over the mate bond. I haven’t accepted the mate bond, nor will I accept it.For the last two days without CJ, I've been strolling around the Summer Moon Festival with Hazel, begrudgingly being her date. She's been chatting non-stop for the past two fucking hours about the mating
Alpha Mars' POV ‘Asher, let’s skip dinner and go for a run.’ I need a run to release the built up anger I am feeling towards this whole situation with Hazel and the fucking contract.I mind-link Hunter and tell him to lead the dinner with the new members and I’ll meet them another time. I just needed a run.Hunter sighs through the mind-link. ‘Alright, but Gregory is bringing his new mate, Benji. I thought you wanted to talk to her about her research?’‘Fuck, that’s right. Let’s do this, push back dinner one hour so I can get a run in. I need to let out some frustration because of fucking Hazel.’ I ran to the front of the packhouse.‘Damn, what did she do?’ Hunter asks.‘The bitch tried to whore herself at me! We went back to her suite to chat, then next thing I know, she’s fucking half naked rubbing herself all over me. I feel so disgusted by that woman’s behavior. She’s supposed to be the next Queen Luna? But, enough of that. I’ll see you guys shortly.’ I cut the mind-link and shif
Benji’s POV“This is it. I can do this! I know Science. I know Medicine. I can do this!”A hard knock on the bathroom door startles me from my mantra. “Benny Baby? Are you planning on coming out any time soon? Babe?” Gregory’s voices muffle through the door. The sound of my mate’s new nickname for me fills me with such giddiness.With a few deep breaths, I unlock the door and walk into his guest room. “Sorry, I was still getting ready.”Gregory looks at me up and down with lust-filled eyes. I can’t help but blush. Because I spend all my time in the University lab or at the hospital, I’m usually in nurses’ scrubs. But today, I decided to dress in business rocker attire for the Blue Eclipse Pack private dinner for new mates, so I could make a good impression. Dark blue suede skinny jeans, a white fitted t-shirt and a blue casual blazer along with my favorite 70s leopard heels that Ciara found at an online thrift store. I even took the time to straighten my pink and blonde shoulder-length
“As Gregory may have told you, I have been doing my thesis research project on the effects of Wolfbane on warriors and trying to find a way to combat the effects. Whether it being an antidote or a vaccine.”“Don’t we already have an antidote for Wolfbane.” Hunter asks.“Unfortunately, no, Doctors are using a form of saline and other chemicals to flush the warriors’ system, which can take several days to weeks to remove any traces of wolfbane, even with our rapid healing. An Antidote is a medicine that counteracts the poisons.” I pull out a blue and purplish bell like flower out of a small container. “Do you know what this is?” I ask.“Why did you bring THAT into the presence of the future king and my family!?” Theo asks as he slowly rises to his feet to stand in front of his wife and son. His eyes change; his wolf right on the surface to protect his family. Everyone but Alpha Mars have scowls on their faces like I have just committed one of the seven deadly sins! Their low growls frig
