~ ENRIQUE ~
The smell of perfume and alcohol fills my nose as I sit on the couch in the booth in the VIP lounge of the club. A place I come often enough for a little distraction from my own mind, duties, and demons.
I swirl the drink in my glass as I watch the three women in nothing but thongs and jewelled nipple coverings dance around the poles, grinding their bodies against one another sensually.
For a moment they manage to capture my attention as two of them rub their boobs together, their hands running over one another’s thick ass. They’re curvy, with meat on them just like I like them, but it’s not enough tonight.
Even when they glance at me before they begin to kiss each other, it doesn’t manage to distract me entirely. They’re satisfying enough to look at, but it’s doing nothing for me.
One of them is my usual, and the other two I selected on my way in, but tonight I’m unable to keep my mind off work.
Two women sit beside me, stroking my chest and thighs, promising a good night if I allow them.
“Loosen up, we’ll deal with it.” My Beta and friend Jose says as he downs his glass of alcohol, his eyes fixed on the woman who is giving him a lap dance. Carlos, my Delta, is also here, but although he’s not mated, he refuses to have a woman serve him.
Cabrón… Why bother coming?
I’m poured another glass as I continue to watch the women in front of me emotionlessly. My face is as cold and expressionless as ever.
“We can pleasure you tonight, Alpha.” One of the women who sits beside me whispers sensually, running her hand up my thigh. They know not to push their limits unless I myself give them permission…
I ignore her, and she doesn’t dare to repeat herself. Everyone knows who I am, and respect is paramount.
“Do you have a plan?” Carlos asks quietly.
I clench my jaw, as I glance out towards the glass window that looks out to the main club, trying to control the anger I’m feeling.
“What do you think? We find him and kill the hijo de puta. It’s fucking simple.” My voice is menacing and low. “This is my land and anyone who so much as tries to claim it, even an inch of it, will face pain and death.”
There’s power and rage in my voice that makes every woman in the room falter. Fear envelops them as strongly as their perfumes.
I’m not called heartless for nothing.
I tilt my head, watching a woman through the glass as she walks through the club below. Her light-coloured curls bounce with every step she takes, and I’m about to look away when she steps up onto the bar area and I get a view of her body.
A body that sends a wave of pleasure directly to my cock.
Now that’s a woman I want beneath me…
She has the perfect body, breasts that you can play with in many ways, and her ass is the type you want to fuck from behind and watch it jiggle as you yank on her lush hair.
My eyes glimmer with a hunger that even my wolf approves of. I am a beast and not many women can handle me, but I don’t care.
Women are made for our pleasure…
“Where are you busy at?” Jose questions, but I don’t answer, and he soon finds what has drawn my attention.
“Fuck, hot damn, now that’s what you-”
“Cabrón, esa es mía.” I say quietly, yet possessively. ‘That one is mine’
I’ve staked my claim here, but there are others out there who are watching her, making my eyes flash in irritation.
‘Luis, that woman at the bar. I want her.’ I mind link the club owner.
‘Ah, Alpha… Lo siento, but she is not one of mine…’ he replies apologetically, sounding scared.
My eyes flash with irritation as I stand up. I’ll get her myself. No woman will refuse me…
I leave the room, walking past my men, the sound of the music louder out here.
The smell of sex, sweat and alcohol hits me strongly, but I drown it out as I make my way to the bar. The crowd parts, knowing exactly who I am, allowing me to pass with ease.
That’s the woman I’m taking home tonight.
I take the seat on her right as the bartender approaches.
“What may I get you?” he asks, lowering his head in respect.
I glance at the woman. She’s not from my Pack, nor is she local… the enticing scent of cherry blossoms flits into my nose and I frown deeply.
“I’ll take a mojito. What will the sexy lady have?” I reply quietly.
She tenses, looking up from where she was fiddling with her phone, and I find myself looking into a pair of beautiful dark eyes rimmed with thick lashes. A slender nose and plump lips that will look excellent wrapped around my cock.
Not only does she have a body I want to fuck, but she has a face to match.
“No thank you, I don’t want anything…” she trails off. Her voice is like a soothing melody, but it’s the accent that triggers every fibre in my being, making anger surge through me; it reminds me of a place that I despise to the very core.
She’s fucking British.
Her heart is racing violently as she stares up at me and I feel my own hatred and anger rise within me like a tidal wave as memories of that vile place return to me.
I look ahead at the glass the bartender has just placed down and grab it, downing it in one as I try to calm the odium that is threatening to consume me.
A part of me wants to simply grab her and fuck the thought right out of my mind as I do her, yet another part of me is getting angrier by the second.
Flashes of memories that I have buried flicker before my eyes, and I clench my jaw. Her sandy blonde hair is a painful reminder of someone I never wanted to remember, and I turn away as agonising pain splits through my wrist. A phantom of the past… A pain long gone… A memory I wish I could forget…
“Do you-”
“This place really does get filled with trash,” I say harshly as I stand up, glaring down at her. For a split second, my gaze flits to her breasts.
Her breath hitches, and I glance back at her. Her large, gorgeous eyes are filled with hurt from my words, but I couldn't care less.
“Pathetic,” I mutter while walking towards the entrance. ‘Let’s get out of here.’ I command through the link to my men. I’ve had enough of this place for one night.
‘An early leave?’ Jose questions. ‘Did the beautiful bombshell decline?’
‘I don’t want her,’
‘So, is she open game?’ Jose pushes, making annoyance ripple through me.
‘No, cabrón, stop fucking around and let’s go,’ I snarl. Irritation flashes through me at the thought of her accepting him. ‘I’m in the mood for blood. Let’s pick some hijos de putas to take out tonight.’
I’m almost at the door when Ruby, one of the strippers who work here, approaches me, batting her thick fake lashes at me.
“Alpha, you look tense…” she whispers, raking one of her jewelled red nails down my chest. “Need me to service you?”
I don’t respond, reaching over and squeezing her ass, which is clad in a tiny red thong, for a couple of seconds. “Not tonight,” I respond, delivering a sharp tap before letting go of her and walking out of the doors and into the night, ready to unleash all my pent-up hell on some losers.
~ KATALEYA ~ “No thank you, I don’t want anything…” I freeze, realising who had just asked me. That deep baritone sends shivers down my spine, and I can’t help but stare at that perfectly chiselled jaw as he looks ahead. Goddess… He looks even more breathtakingly handsome than the picture, and my heart is racing a thousand beats per hour as I take in that tan skin, that rugged stubble, that sharp nose. He’s here… beside me. Those years of waiting and yearning for him, they’re over… he’s right here, just a touch away. There are not enough words to explain this moment that I have dreamt of for years. Time seems to stand still and it’s just the two of us. Gone is the pounding music of the club, the shouting and commotion of those around us… I gaze up at him as he downs his drink. It’s just the two of us… The moment the glass is slammed down, I’m thrown back into the present. Say something! But my lips are not cooperating. Being so close to him has rendered me speechless and a
~ ENRIQUE ~“And you expect me to believe that a woman took all seven of you out?” I ask coldly, glaring at the idiots before me.“Yes, Alpha, we don’t know why she even did that... She first tried to seduce me and when I declined… well, she started acting out.” Idiot number one says.I stare down at the woman who is still unconscious as she’s lying on the couch in my office, with my jacket over her ass. I don’t know why she’s wearing such a revealing dress. It’s obvious none of these assholes could keep their eyes off her, and it’s irritating me.“Why do I feel that this entire story is a lie?” I ask venomously. These men are from the most recent pack I’ve taken control of, and I don’t trust the sleaze balls.“Alpha, it’s no problem. Just let her go,” Idiot number two adds.“Why? Do you have something to hide?” I ask, turning and glaring coldly at the man who had spoken. He’s sporting a bloody nose and I’m no fool… besides, none of them dared answer my question.“No! No, Alpha, not
~ ENRIQUE ~ The sudden urge to tear her clothes off sneaks into my mind and I tense, pushing myself off her.What the fuck?I quickly jerk away as if I’ve just been burned, glaring at the culprit behind this, yet she lays there looking all innocent but at the same time absolutely fucking sexy and fuckable- a pout on her plump lips as she lays there breathing hard, the faint outline of her nipples visible through her fitted dress.Right… It's too hot in here. Is the air conditioning not working?Frowning, I glare at the woman on the bed. I better bind her before she goes looking for someone to fuck. There’s a knock on the open door and Carlos stands there.“Bind her,” I order, brushing past him, and without a glance back I make my way to my quarters, which cover half of the top floor. I shut the door behind me, the click echoing loudly in the room.Crossing the room, I enter my office, shutting the door behind me before I walk over to one of the many shelves and take down a small wood
~ KATALEYA ~ I slowly sit up, unable to pretend that it didn’t hurt. His touch lingers, burning my skin where he had gripped my face tightly. I slip my hands out of the ropes I have already loosened and touch my cheek. For a moment I truly felt that he did recognise me… but then it seemed he didn’t… or did he? I shake my head, trying to clear my circling thoughts. Sighing heavily, I rub my wrists gently, watching the bruises fade slightly. Bending down, I make quick work of removing the rope laced with wolfsbane from my ankles. ‘Valentina?’ I call. ‘Goddess! Kat! I was this close to calling Alpha Leo!’ she growls. We had already discussed a plan and I’m grateful she didn’t jump in to attack and followed my instructions. ‘Sorry, but I’m fine, I’m here in his pack house I think…’ I say, looking around. ‘Oh? So how did he feel knowing it was you?’ she asks excitedly, all annoyance gone. ‘He doesn’t know who I am… yet. I think… But I’m fine. I don’t know where my phone is, or if
KATALEYA. My eyes fly open at those words. “No, not at-” “Don’t lie to me. What is it? Never seen an Alpha with a disability?” He throws at me venomously, his eyes filled with contempt as he sits back in his throne-like chair. He doesn’t even need a throne. The power that radiates off him is enough of a reminder to show who wears the crown here. He is the Alpha, there’s no doubt about that, but his aura intrigues me. How powerful is he? “Are you going to stare all day? This isn’t a circus.” My heart constricts at his words, and I shake my head. “No, it’s not that – I… Having a disability never makes a person beneath anyone or any less capable. My mother has a disability, but it does not stop her from being the most incredible woman ever. I admire her, and I can also see that you too are a great Alpha.” He cocks a brow, scoffing contemptuously as he opens his drawer and takes out a cigarette, deftly placing it between those gorgeous lips of his, and flicking the lighter as he li
~ KATALEYA ~ I speed up, breaking into a run, not worrying about the three who run after me. I need to get out of here. As long as I’m alone, I’ll be able to handle them. They’re here for me and that’s all they want. “Oi! What are you doing?!” Alondra shouts. I can feel the light being sucked from around us, feel the air becoming heavier and they are oblivious to it. How did they find me here so quickly? Was it when I used my powers last night? My eyes blaze pink as I emit a large part of my aura, a beacon to call them to me, drawing them to the powers that they desire. I’m down the stairs as fast as I can go, my heart thumping when I hear the shuddering rattling of their ragged breath, the air becoming cold. “She’s a witch!” Gabriela shouts, looking at me as she backs away. “Alpha! Alpha!” They may not have picked up on it as fast as me, but they’re sensing them now. It’s hard not to when they are this close. I hear Alondra gasp. The fear in them is only going to make this wo
~ ENRIQUE ~ If I thought she was fucking perfect with clothes on… then she was a dream without them. I know I have a type, and that type includes big boobs and meat, but I don’t think I’ve come anywhere close to seeing the perfect body – until now. Every inch of her is made to perfection. Her creamy smooth skin, soft pink nipples, gorgeous fucking hips that I want to grab onto and yank close. Sexy curvy thighs, and a plump smooth, perfect pussy that I want to part, devour and fuck. Deliciously perfect and a complete turn-on. But the thing that irritates me the most - the worst fucking part of this is she is one of them. A Rossi. And she fucking slapped me. I glare at the shut door, which she had just run out through, her big sexy ass jiggling as she rushed from the room. She fucking slapped me! She’s fucking weird. Who screams like a dumb chica with a body like that? What is she? Some sort of hentai chick? Well, she does look like one. Ok, focus. Fuck, this is my house. She
~ KATALEYA ~ I don’t know how I made him so angry that he thought I deserved to be down there… is it because he thought I was disrespecting him when all I wanted was to vanquish the Crawlers? Hmm, I’m not sure… and now I’m down here, without clothes… I will wait until dark before I make use of this bed sheet… I’m sure I can make something for my breasts and a skirt from this fabric, too. Yes, that will work perfectly… I walk over to the corner. This place clearly isn’t used much from the amount of dirt on the floors. Sighing, I sit down and wait. For what I am not sure… ~ After a while, when I realise no one is coming, I quickly remove the sheet and extracting a claw, I slice through one section of the fabric until I have a long piece of fabric that is almost a foot wide. Placing it aside, I quickly pick up the rest of the fabric, tearing open the seam on one side and the bottom and wrap it around my waist. Once I’m satisfied I knot it on my waist and look down at my skirt that f
~ SIENNA ~I shouldn’t be here.Everyone knows I got in because of who my dad is – was. Everyone knows I failed the entrance exams, but I was enrolled by order of the King.A favour and a curse.I was doing fine, until Dad left me, left us. I can no longer concentrate without the panic and nightmares plaguing me, threatening to devour me alive. I can no longer harness my powers without the turmoil and pain inside suffocating me. It’s alive and I have lost the tether of control over it.“Alright! Everyone here is going to be put into divisions!” A loud voice tears me from my thoughts. “For the next six months, you will work together, and some of you may be put into these very divisions upon graduation! So work well together. Each group will be made to balance one another!” the Strategy Master shouts, his voice booming across the large hall.I shrink into my hoodie, wishing I wasn’t here. I don’t deserve to be here. Everyone knows it. All I do is hold people up and if I do let my powers
~ ENRIQUE ~A short while later, we are sitting at our table as several people give short, heartfelt speeches when I hear faint voices on the wind. One sweep of the area and I notice who is missing from the tables of Kataleya’s close family.Sienna Rossi, the daughter of Rayhan and Delsanra, there’s an urgency in her voice.“…I want to know.”Whoever she’s talking to isn’t giving her the answer she wants. I scan the area around, but I can’t seem to find who else is missing.“I can’t,” comes a low male’s voice that is far too quiet to recognise. “Sorry.”I frown slightly as silence falls and scan the area. Where are they?Sienna’s ability when night falls makes it harder to pinpoint her anywhere.‘Everything ok?’ Kataleya asks me through the mind-link.‘Yeah. I just heard Sienna talking to someone, but I didn’t really hear anything much,’ I tell her.Her brow furrows ever so slightly, but she simply nods.A lot has happened over the past few years, and it has changed Sienna in many ways
~ ENRIQUE ~“I do.”Those words leave her lips, sounding better than I had ever imagined them to.“I now pronounce you man and wife. You may kiss the bride.”I’m kissing her already, my lips claiming hers with passion and love as everyone cheers.We slowly part and I look down at her once more. She looks beyond breathtaking. Like the diosa she is…My gaze rakes over her breasts and I can’t help but smirk faintly. ‘Now that is a view I can devour,’ I murmur huskily. She looks breathtaking in the gown she’s chosen.And I’m happy she’s let my favourite girls get some show time. I love a good view, and this is one of my favourites.She blushes lightly as she looks up at me through her lashes. I take hold of her chin, gently tilting her head up once more, and I simply admire her.Her hands are on my chest, sending a soft crackling tingle through me, teasing me with the promise of pleasure only she can offer me.“I love you, Mi Amor, more than life itself.”“And I love you, more than anythin
Over three years later.~ KATALEYA ~I gaze in the mirror, my heart racing at how I look.I’m wearing an embellished luxurious champagne-coloured wedding dress. The entire bodice and skirt are covered in crystals. It’s fitted to my hips and shows off ample cleavage. The skirt flows out, and despite the weight of the crystals on it, the several layers beneath it keep the volume intact.My tanned skin shimmers and my makeup is soft yet glowing, complimenting my dress. My hair is styled in loose waves, pinned high up where a tiara sits, keeping my long veil, which flows past the trail of my skirt, in place.I’m wearing a diamond necklace and earrings that match my tiara. One that Raihana now adjusts with my veil.“Now you are my kind of bride,” she says, a small smile on her face.“A tad extra and extremely sparkly, you mean?” Alessandra remarks from behind us. She’s already ready. Her smoky eyes and glossy lips compliment her skin tone, and she’s wearing a dusky pink dress. The same shad
~ ENRIQUE ~Fifteen minutes later, I have her out of the bath and on the bed with towels beneath her. She’s on her stomach, a pink blush colouring her cheeks.A towel is wrapped around my own waist, and a bottle of oil is in my hand. One that I now pour into my hands before I start from her shoulders, massaging them slowly and sensually. Making sure to run any knots out.The lights are dim, the ambience in the room sensual, but it’s the look in her eyes and her naked body beneath me that fucks with my head, the intense sizzling chemistry between us fuelling that intoxicating heat.But tonight, she’s a canvas that I will work on…My other hand tangles in her hair as I tug slightly, holding her head in place as I work the back of her neck.She sighs softly, relaxing into my touch. I then run my hands down the centre of her back, making her gasp as I massage her. I then trickle some oil onto her voluptuous ass. She bites her lips as I run my hands down her ass. My fingers slip between her
~ ENRIQUE ~The bathroom, which has also been newly decorated, now holds a large deep bath, one that is now full of bath milk and petals. The delicious smell of shea butter, cherry blossoms, and coconut mixes together in a pleasant concoction.“My love… you did this for me?” she whispers.“You’ve been working hard.” I smirk, “So I thought we could start with a bath and massage before I put you to work again.”She blushes as I place her down and the moment she kisses me, my hands grip her hips; her clothes incinerate, freeing her breasts from their hold. She gasps as she stares down at what’s left of them.“I like you naked,” I murmur, as I step back and remove my own shirt, and she instantly grips my belt, making quick work of it. She’s gotten faster, having improved over the last few months, and she loves to strip me naked as soon as she can.My naughty, dirty, little perfect angel.I wrap my hand around her throat, squeezing slightly as I run my tongue along her lips. “Delicious,” I
~ ENRIQUE ~‘Do your guardsmen have emotions?’ Carlos asks through the mind-link as we sit around eating at the same table.He’s glancing towards Rhea and Benigno. Marie and Jose are also seated with us. Right now Kataleya and Marie are discussing something about the indoor pool, and clearly Carlos took the chance to mind-link.‘I don’t fucking know.’ I shrug.‘Enrique, tell me… you should know, they’re your guardsmen.’ He almost pleads.I pull Jose into the conversation. ‘Carlos here is wondering if the creepy woman over there has feelings,’ I tell him mockingly.Jose smirks. ‘Just ask her. I mean, if you had women at the club back then, you might not care so much about the feeling side.’‘You two are horrible! Jose, I won’t hesitate to tell Marie how you were,’ he threatens him, making me smirk.‘Yeah, cabrón, don’t hurt his feelings.’ I snicker.‘She knows what I was like. I slept with her on a visit to her island, remember?’ Jose counters arrogantly. ‘You won’t tell our Queen Luna
~ KATALEYA ~I smile gently at them, ruffling their hair. “Can you two play together nicely? We’re one big family, remember?”“But he doesn’t play the game I want to play,” Alejandro protests.“He likes to play hitting games.” Pascal pouts.“Yeah, and you're just a scaredy…” He trails off looking at me and I look around.“Why don’t you both play ball or one of the board games?” I suggest, pointing towards the game area that is set up for the younger kids.“Hmmm… ok.” Pascal smiles at me and Alejandro nods before they both run off together.“We’ll behave, Luna!”I smile as I watch them. Everyone treats me like I’m a treasure here. It makes my heart feel so full…“You’re good with kids,” Enrique remarks as he takes my hand and pulls me to my feet, kissing my lips deeply.I clutch onto the cotton collarless shirt that he has left several buttons open on, caressing his chest with one hand as I kiss him back. Before I step back, he picks up the glasses he had placed down and offers me one.
~ KATALEYA ~“I am starved.” Carlos rubs his stomach; his shirt hangs open, reminding everyone that despite his personality he is as ripped and muscled as the best of warriors. But I think he’s trying to please a certain redhead who stands to the side as silent as the shadows. The pack members are beginning to adapt to the presence of the three guardsmen.I hide my giggle. “Are you? Oh, would you take this over to Rhea? She’s been standing there for a while,” I say innocently.“Oh, sure.” He quickly takes the mocktail I’m holding in my hand.‘Don’t encourage him,’ Enrique says through the mind-link, although he’s standing with a group of the younger warriors. There’s a couple who will be going to take the entrance exams for the academies in England. I hope they get in; Estephan is a little young yet, but he is showing a lot of promise already.Leo passed two decrees that night. One; the age of the students in the academies changed. The academies will now start from the age of 16 and up
