In an instant, they were rolling around the floor tickling each other and it was easy for him to flick her onto her back and sit astride her, she shrieked as he tickled her relentlessly,
‘Stopitstopitstopit.’
The words ran into each other as she laughed and hit her small fists on his back at the same time, he stopped because he knew she hated being tickled and he only did it to show he was stronger than her. They lay on their backs looking up at the sky and he longed to ask her why he had felt so strange sitting astride her. He had wanted to keep her there she had felt so good beneath his young hands normally they talked about anything and everything but not this somehow he knew not this. He stood and held out his hand pulling her to her feet,
‘Come on, we need to get to class or we’ll get detention.’
Mr Lagon watched the children coming into his classroom smiling as they chattered their way to their seats, he adored teaching, especially this age group, the young pups grew so fast maturing much quicker than their human counterparts. This age group were the equivalent of human children aged between five and seven years but in the year they were with him they would mature into teenagers ready to graduate and move on to college.
‘Okay kids, I want you to settle down quickly but only take out your pencils and pens we are going to have a maths test.’
Groans reverbrated around the room and his eyes flicked to his two-star students, Tegan and Caspian, after handing out the papers to the rest of the students he walked over to them,
‘I’m not giving you two the same paper as the others, it would be far too easy for you. I want to push you a little harder to see what you are capable of so I’d like you to do this senior paper.’
He saw the excited look they gave each other, they loved to be challenged and they loved to be pitted against each other,
‘You have the same amount of time as the rest of the class please begin everyone.’
He watched as they began to write he knew those who would struggle, those who would do just enough and those who would try their best, then there was Tegan and Caspian. Both worked hard he could see them working things out and writing quickly their eagerness to beat each other made them work harder and harder. Tegan's eyes danced across the pages this work was easy, her fast analytical brain processed the information and gave out the answers almost like a computer. She had all but finished the paper when she heard a frustrated huff from beside her looking under her lashes she could see Caspian was not keeping up with her. She stilled her pen and held her breath in an instant she realised this had been what the Alpha wanted, he knew she would never allow her best friend to get hurt because of her. Tears stung her eyes but she bit them back and slowed her progress keeping an eye on Caspian under her lashes she did not see Mr Lagon frown as he watched her deliberately stop working. He sighed quietly and reproached himself for not catching on sooner, there was no way on earth that little girl was going to get her friend into trouble. That damn Alpha had won again Caspian would now continue to come top of the class while she would be second even though she was much more intelligent than he was.
Later that night as he marked their papers he saw that she had a perfect one-hundred per cent score only trouble was she had crossed out two of her answers and written in the wrong answer to allow the young heir to come first. He felt angry on her behalf, he wanted to challenge the Alpha and tell him he was wrong to teach his son he could win no matter the cost to others but he wasn’t stupid. If he dared to say anything he would lose his job and probably his life, he hoped that Caspian would catch on quickly to what was going on and appreciate the sacrifice his friend was making for him.
Unfortunately, Caspian only proved he was his father's son when he discovered he had beaten Tegan by one mark on the test he could not wait to crow about his victory. Jumping up and down he shouted in delight,
‘I won. I won. I knew it. I knew I was the clever one.’
He did not see the look of disappointment in Tegan’s eyes or the look of sympathy his teacher gave her acknowledging that he knew what she had done. Caspian knew he was not cleverer than Tegan and when he beat her in every subsequent test he understood what she was doing for him and he was going to acknowledge it. He actually told his father after coming home with another test result putting him ahead of her and was shocked when his father rounded on him.
‘Don’t ever let me hear you praising that fucking hybrid bitch. She is nothing, a useless foundling so don’t think I’m not watching you. If you want to fuck her when you are old enough then go ahead she’s a pretty little thing I’ll grant you that but she is not and never will be anything but a whore for this Pack. Do you understand me, boy? If you have any ideas about making her your Luna then forget them, use her any way you like then pass her over to the guards.’
He had beaten Caspian so hard afterwards the boy had vowed as soon as he had grown bigger and stronger than his father he would kill him because if he wanted to take Tegan as his Luna there would be no one to stop him if his father was dead.
She sensed the change in him as did their teacher and it was never more evident than when they discussed the changing roles of the female wolves within the Pack. Mr Lagon had hoped that with Tegan’s help, Caspian would be a better role model than his father, the Alpha was the worst possible role model, he was a sexist, misogynistic male who thought the sole purpose of the female was to pleasure him. He kept a dozen human females in his own personal harem, they were locked in a cage in his barn and when he wanted a little fun he would drag one of them out, rip off what little clothing she would have on and rape her in front of the others. He wanted them to know that this would be their fate, they were there to please him and if they tried to resist, a few actually did try and had their lives snuffed out when he rammed his hard cock so far down their throats they choked to death. Caspian witnessed this on numerous occasions, at first he had been appalled and begged his father not to hur
‘I don’t care what my father says about you Tegan when I am Alpha I am going to take you and make you my Luna because you belong to me always.’He planted a sloppy childish kiss on her lips and she was so stunned she did not stop him, it meant nothing to her anyway, she had no feelings of that kind toward Caspian. With her mind still reeling from his words, she was not stupid, she knew exactly what the Alpha thought of her but she wasn’t watching what Caspian was doing. He was looking down at her hungrily and grabbed her hand rubbing it over his crotch,‘I can’t wait to share this with you my little hybrid. My father is going to allow me to practise on the human females soon so that when I take you as my mate I will make it so good for you Tegan baby.’She froze her eyes locking on his hand as it gripped hers and she had to bite her tongue to stop the bile that rose in her throat,‘You think that I will let you touch me after you have raped those poor human slaves?’ She could not sto
Without another word she picked up the bag she had dropped and ran off into the school, he watched her go in stunned silence then picked up his bag and followed her. He would charm her around to his way of thinking, he had always been able to do that but his smile fell when he entered the classroom to find she was not sat in their usual seat. Tegan had decided to teach him a lesson, the first of two he would receive that day, she had sat next to Mya, a mousy she-wolf with the most massive crush on Caspian. It gave her a great deal of pleasure to see his scowl of anger when he realised he would have to take the seat next to Irwin, a bright, nerdy boy who spent his whole time talking about computer games.Mr Lagon hid his surprise at seeing them sit apart he had no idea why but he knew what he was about to say was only going to compound matters,‘After our discussion on equal rights among the sexes in the Wolf Pack and following the things Caspian said which I do not think you should re
Tegan glared at him,‘You lay a finger on me Caspian and I will retaliate.’He stared back at her for what seemed like an eternity and then his eyes softened,‘I’m sorry Tegan, what happened to us? We have always been such good friends, I hate it when we argue. Can we get back to being just friends?’Tegan cocked her head to one side her pale silver-grey eyes assessing him, he seemed to be genuine and she did miss their friendship,‘Will you stop acting like your father Caspian? You don’t have to be like him you know, when you become Alpha you can change things for the better if you truly want to.’She turned to begin the walk home and missed the calculating look in his brilliant blue eyes as he watched her pert little ass,‘Oh don’t you worry my pretty little hybrid I have already set plans in motion for change when I become Alpha but I doubt you will approve of them.’He thought his eyes glittering hungrily but he was wrong, Tegan could sense the change in him, she knew his Wolf was
She stretched and then stood in a graceful feline motion, handing her paper to Mr Lagon she smiled,‘I’m finished so would it be okay if I head home I have some chores the Luna wishes me to complete.’The teacher nodded and she headed out, a scowl sitting on Caspians face as he watched her leave, she never went home without him, it was something they had enjoyed doing each day walking to and from the school. He had kept his word and not kissed her again without her permission but gaining that consent was very loosely adhered to as he was the Alpha heir so he set his own rules. When he wanted to kiss her he would set up a situation that he could take advantage of, Caspian was not beyond tripping her up so he could look gallant when he picked her up and always, every single time, he would kiss her. He knew she hated it so he made sure they were in a public setting leaving Tegan helpless to stop him without causing a scene, which she would never do.Tegan hurried back to the Alphas house
Eros stopped and frowned then he growled,‘This is too soon.’Tegan’s agonising cry echoed around the Packlands and there was nothing Eros could do as she took another step backwards and fell off the lookout point. He hesitated,‘Come on Tegan do it. Damn you girl do it.’He whispered, it was too soon but it was the only way she would not fall to her death, Tegan heard his whisper and then it was a shout inside her head.‘DO IT!’The pain in her body increased and she was close to blacking out but then she found herself swooping through the air catching an updraft and leaving the Packlands behind.‘Well done little Tegan.’Eros soared beside her his beautiful face split with a huge grin and her silver eyes grew wide,‘You have wings.’She gasped,‘You, you, are fl, flying.’Her words stuttered out followed by a cry of fear as she realised she was flying too,‘No, no, no, OMG! This is impossible.’She spun around helplessly her wings folding in on themselves as her body went into shock
Santana looked straight into those unusual swirling eyes,‘Of course not Wolf, he is a mere Alpha, he is not worthy of me’Santana was affronted on behalf of Caspian,‘He will grow into a mighty Alpha, it is his destiny’She turned to Caspian,‘Physical strength is one thing Santana it is his intellectual strength that will decide the path he takes’The Wolf retreated from her presence knowing when the time came his human would not step down without a fight,‘We shall see my Lady, we shall see.’Her cold enigmatic smile chilled him to the bone, she already knew part of her future and it did not include his human. Tegan released Caspian and started toward the path back to the Packhouse,‘Let’s go home Caspian.’She walked ahead of him the sun catching her pretty hair as it bobbed up and down floating around her like a magical cape, something stirred deep inside him and he embraced it she would be his whether she accepted it or not.Tegan was his best friend, as a future Alpha many of t
Caspian had not done quite as well, he had scored highly and most parents would have been proud of how hard he had worked. His Father though was a tyrant who expected his only Son to be top of his class in everything, when he discovered Caspian had come second to Tegan in every subject had called the school. The Principal held the phone away from her ear as his Alpha yelled threateningly wanting to know why ‘That fucking Girl’ had scored higher marks than the Alpha’s Son. He threatened the teaching staff that heads would roll if Caspian was not top of the class in all subjects for the next year. He was furious that the little upstart hybrid he had taken under his protection, who was now Caspian’s best friend, had beaten him in every subject. His eyes went red as he raged on then went as far as accusing her of cheating by copying Caspian’s work. He implied that as a mere female, there was no way she was brighter than his far superior male child. Mr Logan had bravely come forward riski
‘My eldest Son, Santos, was stolen by the Druids while he was away at college. They trawl them, looking for young Shifters, then enchant them and force them to serve as their guards. They did this to my Santos, he was a peaceful boy, you understand?’Killian nodded, wanting to hurry this man to his conclusion but knowing it would be useless; the man would get to his point eventually,‘He was going to be a lawyer and help our Community. He is not a fighter, but they forced him to be one. He is your mate's guard. He has no desire to hurt her or keep her captive, but he must do as he is told. They told him to gain her trust because she was their ultimate sacrifice.’He lifted his eyes to Killian’s,‘You must find her, Your Highness, she is in great danger as they intend to mate her with the other hybrid.’ ‘Other hybrid?’Killian was confused, no one had ever mentioned another The man took a deep breath and went on with his long, convoluted explanation.‘He is not like her; he does not
Tegan wasn’t angry, she was downright furious and when she came around to find herself locked in another fucking cage she groaned as her stomach roiled from the drug. She heaved, but nothing came up. She had not eaten for days, and her stomach was empty, so it hurt like hell as she kept heaving. When she finally sat back to survey her surroundings, she discovered she was not only caged, but they had placed a charmed collar around her neck, as well as equally charmed cuffs on her wrists and ankles. Panting from the effort of trying to vomit, she glared at the offending chains,‘You have got to be kidding me.’‘Our apologies, Hybrid. It is necessary to do this until the Divine One is ready to receive you.’She lifted her head to look at the young guard, and he was young, not much older than her,‘Who is this Divine One?’She demanded, and saw the fear in his eyes.‘’He is the one chosen by the Creator to lead the Druids.’Tegan tamped down her rising anger; this young guard was not to bl
When she was dressed, she tried the door and was surprised to find it was unlocked. Peaking out, she discovered there were no guards outside it either, so she headed along the corridor, following the smell of food. She had no idea where she was or who had taken her, but her stomach rumbled loudly, telling her she was starving.‘As am I.’Tegan stopped walking and frowned, looking around her,‘Why are you surprised to hear my voice again, human? I never said that I would not return.’‘Serena?’She whispered hopefully,‘Is that you?’‘How many other white wolves do you know, Tegan?’She came bounding into view in her mind, rolling over and wagging her beautiful, fluffy tail,‘So, I’m back, and it looks like I’m just in it, me, but before we go into any of that, I can smell bacon!’Tegan laughed; it felt so good to have Serena back with her,‘I’ve missed you, my Wolf.’Serena huffed at her but replied,‘Guess I missed you too, my human.’She carried on her way and wandered into the tiny
She turned to see an elderly male, he wore a long purple flowing robe and had a snow white beard that came almost to his feet and he was holding his hand out to her.‘Come little one, there is little time and so much you must be taught.’His thin, bony hand clasped her wrist in a surprisingly strong grip,‘Sleep, little hybrid, our journey is long.’Tegan let out a small gasp of shock before her world went black and the stranger caught her in his arms,‘I am sorry, Crown Prince Killian, but her magic is far too strong to be left unguided. She will be returned to you when we have it and our little Magi under our control.’Killian was finishing up making the arrangements for his new ‘seconds’ to take over while he was locked away with his little mate; they all knew the score. When a female went into Haze, her mate would be locked away with her until it passed, this was especially important for the Prince and Princess. He was determined that when she came out of this Haze, she would be c
‘I am sorry, Magi.’Cupid said, looking at the floor, and he was rewarded with a tinkling laugh that made him smile back shyly at her,‘You are very beautiful, Magi.’He said, his mouth working before his brain permitted it,‘Thank you, Cupid, but pretty words mean nothing. It is time for you to join your twin.’With a snap of her fingers, Cupid disappeared and found himself in the magic palace cell next to his twins,‘Remind me never to upset you, little mate.’Killian walked toward her through the mists, his smile devastating as he tugged her into his arms and kissed her possessively. As soon as they touched her, colours grew brighter and wrapped around him.‘Did he hurt you, little mate?’He whispered, breaking the kiss,‘Because I am beginning to think the Fae Kingdom will be a much better place if I rid it of those two fools.’He nuzzled into her hair desire pulsing through him her scent was intoxicating he licked her neck then bit down on her mark Tegan arched up as he sucked i
Killian had not been able to complete the mating because she had left the palace before he could, and as she was newly mated, it attracted every male in the area. She was an easy target; her own hormones were telling her to have sex with her mate. She was going to Haze, and every male she came into contact knew that. Cupid lifted her and carried her to the low bed under the window. Her eyes went wide and filled with tears,‘Please don’t do this.’She begged, and he hesitated, letting his eyes roam over her delectable body, then she moved and the split in her skirt revealed her naked thigh. ‘She wasn’t wearing underwear.’He thought, and in an instant, he had stripped out of his clothes and lay on top of her, pinning her hands above her head and kissing her hungrily, nipping her lips until she parted them and he could claim her mouth.‘Eros, no, no.’She tried to free herself, but
He snapped back, expecting her to calm down and obey him,‘If you are going to get into a pissing competition every time another male speaks to me then we can end this right now. I will not be dictated to by you or any other male.’Silver eyes flashed with temper as she shoved away the untouched food and walked out of the Dining Room without another word,‘Wow, you’ve got your hands full there, my friend.’He turned to see Musafa and Joshua sitting on the other side of the room, grinning at him,‘She’s a looker though, if you can’t control her I wouldn’t mind givng her a go.’Joshua was smiling to show he was only teasing the Crown Prince but Killian frowned he was going to have teach Tegan a lesson, he could not allow her to disrespect him like that and his cock grew instantly hard.‘If you will excuse me, gentlemen.’He gave them a quick nod and a slight bow, then strode after his disobedient little mate.Tegan had meant to return to their room, she knew Killian would follow her bec
They said together and left them in peace nodding at the rest of the watchers who followed their lead and left their newly mated Crown Prince and Princess alone. Only the guards remained holding the furiously angry Eros.‘She was mine.’He growled under his breath as he watched the couple stand up on shaky feet. The guards handed them their robes, and Eros scowled as Killian wrapped up his beautiful new mate, kissing her tenderly and then swinging her into his arms bridal style. He looked across at Eros,‘You are wrong, my brother; she could never be yours. Only true fated mates can join in bliss as we did. Whatever this is, it ends now.’He looked down at Tegan, who was curled into his chest, her eyes closed in exhaustion,‘Take him to the dungeons and make sure to place him in the enchanted cell so he cannot escape. I will deal with tomorrow.’The Royal guards obeyed dragging Eros down and placing him the white circle then stepped back as it began to glow brightly a light mist hover
He roared, standing over Eros, his blue eyes turning black and then purple as the red rage tried to push forward,‘You fucking traitor.’He snarled, gripping Eros by the throat and squeezing hard,‘You left me to die at that laboratory, and I thought you were my brother.’He growled at his so-called friend,‘You knew what you were doing, you set me to so you could steal my mate.’Eros did not attempt to defend his actions. Standing up, he faced Killian,‘’You are a fool. Brother.’He spat the word sarcastically,‘She has power beyond anything we can ever know. Brother. It is not difficult to harness that power, all you had to do was fuck her and mark her. ‘His crude, cruel words bit deep into Tegan's heart,‘Was that all she was to him?’Killian walked over to her and tugged her close to his side,‘Don’t listen to him, little one. He had always wanted you for himself, and he has shown that he will do anything to take what is not his. He was the same as a child; he had always wanted w
