The Mating Game Chapter 21
KARA"Would you like to watch a sappy rom-com with me?"I blinked once. Twice. Then three times but my blank expression didn't waver as Orion expectantly awaited my response.After the conference call and learning a few minor details of how the Kessler brothers ran their respective halves of the pack, Denver left to assist my father, and Miles left to attend to the wolves he had brought along with him—the wolves I still hadn't formally met yet even though they had been in my pack for days."Shouldn't you check on the wolves you brought along?" I questioned. My eyes darted between Orion and the bedroom door. It wasn't that I didn't want to be in a room with him. It was that I didn't trust myself in a room with him. Now that the bond had snapped into place, I couldn't fight off the recurrent waves of lust that turned my blood to lava. Orion shrugged a shoulder as he made his way around the bed and began fluffing the decorative pillows, "Miles will take care of it for now. He likes to

KARA"I don't see why you need me to come along," I grumbled while tossing my duffle bag into the back of the SUV, "and I have no idea how you convinced my father to agree to this idea."Orion's wolfish grin was something I was beginning to look forward to seeing and that scared the shit out of me. As his lips split, I noted how my body instantly reacted to him. My palms grew clammy and a strange feeling swirled in my gut. The way my heart skipped and my mouth grew dry was a sign that the mate bond was fully in play, urging me to cave and accept Orion so I could enjoy the sensation of him in my arms as he smiled that devious smile down at me. "We're going back to our pack for a few days. I requested for Denver and you to join. I told your father that it would be beneficial for you to meet the pack and get to know everyone so, when you eventually live there, nothing will be brand new to you," closing the trunk, he dusted his hands and pocketed them with a pensive scrunch of his brows,

MILES I sent my men off to rest after our long journey. They were finally reunited with their families after spending close to a week away from them. They were growing restless being away from home for so long. When they found out about our trip back, I felt their excitement as if it were my own. It coursed through the bond that tied me to my pack. An alpha was the one werewolf that shared several bonds. As a leader, I was bonded to every member of my pack. They weren't strangers, acquaintances, or friends. They were family. Unfortunately, some of them were fucking assholes but you never got to pick who you were related to. Unlike blood relations, pack relationships were a bit different. I felt my pack's emotions, felt when they were hurt or in fear. They were like an invisible limb—losing my pack would be the equivalent of losing a limb. The same went for Orion. So, we found a way to keep things operational without having to feel an integral part of us missing. I glanced down at m

KARAThis bed must have been filled with clouds. It was the only explanation I could conjure for why I had the most peaceful sleep in this last week. Maybe my exhaustion contributed to it but Miles' scent of freshly mowed grass with a hint of spice certainly played no part in why I had the best sleep of my life. His scent permeated the room, from the bed sheets to the clothes that hung in the closet. They were a lot smaller than the clothes he wore now. I quickly deduced that I was staying in what must have been his childhood bedroom. There weren't many remnants left behind to signify it though. The room itself was plain. Gray walls and white cupboards. White curtains with silver embellishments hung over the windows. A desk sat opposite the bed, a cushioned chair tucked into it. Otherwise, there was nothing in the room to signify it was Miles' childhood bedroom—bar the few clothes in the closet. If he had me in his room, then he had to have put Denver in Orion's, and Miles was now s

KARAHoly shit, Miles kissed me! Holy shit, I let him kiss me!Holy shit, I kissed him back!Holy shit, I liked it!Those four statements ran laps in my mind even after Miles fled the kitchen to get dressed. Saylor stood awkwardly at the threshold, wringing her fingers as her acute gaze assessed my every movement. I slid down the island and smoothed out my ruffled t-shirt. Then, I redid and tightened my ponytail which Miles had shifted in his lust-driven haze. Saylor was a petite little thing clad in a black turtle neck, blue jeans, and knee-length boots. Her sun-kissed hair cascaded over her shoulders in subtle waves and blue eyes as clear as the ocean served as her most attractive quality. If I didn't know better, a pang of jealousy would have speared my gut. I trusted Miles enough to know that there was no "sweet home Alabama" bullshit taking place here. "It's nice to officially meet you, Kara," her voice was sweeter than honey with a smile to match. She must have made an exc

ORION"This past week has been interesting," Jess purred. I leaned back in my chair with a measured inhale. It felt good to be back at home and amongst my pack. Not just good, I felt stronger and calmer, less on edge about being in a strange environment where someone could attack you at any moment. My gaze gravitated to the window as the morning sun peaked out of the thick cloud cover. The paperwork scattered on my desk was meant to be filed two weeks ago and I still hadn't found the time to get around to it. I didn't mind the leadership aspect of being an Alpha. Taking care of my pack came naturally to me. It was the logistics that tripped me up. Running a pack was a lot like running a business. One wrong move and everything would crash and burn. "That's an understatement," I muttered. Jess leaned forward, bracing her tattooed arms on the table between us. Her cropped hair was styled back and the crisp suit she wore made her look like one scary motherfucker. One look at her and t

KARAJealousy and testosterone lingered in the air like a bad smell. The Kessler brothers assumed the worst about this meeting and I was happy they were proven wrong. I was all the more elated when I realized that Percy Vaughn was the new alpha of the Blue Waters pack. It meant I could let my guard down, even if it was minimally, to enjoy the company of an old friend. Denver and I were always the closest in the Blood Wolves, but I had a good relationship with Percy as well. Being a few years older than me, he managed to climb the ranks quickly. He was on his way to becoming head warrior of the pack when he sent word one day that he would not be returning. It was sad to see him go. On my first shift, it was Percy who stood by me and coached me through the experience. It was Percy who stood by Denver and coached him as well. He took it upon himself to train us—especially when my father wasn't pushing me to my limit. I looked forward to my sparring sessions with Percy. He didn't necess

ORIONEven if I wanted to, I physically couldn't stop myself from deepening the kiss. Not when Kara made a noise so sensuous, that all I wanted to do was hear it again. I angled her head and glided my tongue against hers with a slow stroke before curling it and licking the roof of her mouth. Another moan fluttered out of her with feather-light wings. I was falling.The mere connection of my lips to hers was enough to weaken my grip on my sanity, forcing me to plummet head-first into the unknown. I wanted to feel every inch of her silken skin, run my palms over every curve as I caressed the swells of her breast. They roamed her body, committing every line, bump, and ridge to memory. I was a cartographer and her body was a map that could lead me to the finest treasures. Peppering kisses along the corner of her sweet-tasting mouth, I nipped and sucked at the skin along her jaw until I left a trail of bruises down the corner of her neck. They would fade in a few hours, however—as I acce
