I only make it a few steps before I’m tackled to the floor by the guy with piercing orange eyes, his muscular frame pinning me to the floor and ensuring I can’t move. I tried to struggle, to thrash my body and break free, But it was no use he was too strong, much stronger than myself. I screamed, frustrated and afraid, the power within me surging forward, shattering the windows of the hallway and causing the men to gasp in shock.
“get off me!” I cried, once again trying to break free.
Yet, the new arrival who thought I was his mate, wouldn’t let me go, would even allow me to turn around as he adjusted his hold on me, calm and collected whilst I was freaking out. I didn’t mean to shatter the windows, I just wanted to get away from them, I couldn’t hand having four mates, I was barley coping with two.
“Alexander get off her.” Dean ordered in a sharp tone.
“I’ll let her go when she
We all burst out laughing together and my heart swelled once more, I didn't think it was possible to be anymore happy, to experience the feeling of love more than I did right now. I want to embrace them off for who they were, I wanted to give them all a fair chance, I wanted them all to become a part of my heart. it was strange to think I was already falling for them, And half an hour ago I wanted nothing to do with it. but I guess that's how life works, you make decisions and sometimes you don't think them over. You sorta bypass the consequences of what your decision will Make.Matthew rushes towards me, jumping from his seat and tackling me from mine as he still laughs, he grabs my hips and lift me into the air, spinning me around faster than I can see. He suddenly throws me over his shoulder and tickles my hips, causing me to snort as I laugh, his hands like magic on my skin, igniting sparks wherever he touches.“Stop, sto
We sat down to eat and the conversation flowed, the men getting on better than I ever thought that they would, though I knew that it was for my benefit more than theirs. They wanted me to feel comfortable, to be happy and not have to worry about them arguing every five minutes over who gets to spend time with me. It was nice to be wanted, don’t get me wrong, but it was also kind of tiring to be the centre of attention all the time.“What’s your favourite colour Annalise?” Zane asks, his voice light and fun.“I’m not sure, I’ve never thought much about it.” I say. “But I’ve always liked purple.”“Purple it is.” Zane smiles, peaking my curiosity.I frown, “Why do you ask?”“Eve wants to know so she can’t colour coordinate your wardrobe.” He says, the smile he held widening.“Oh.” I whisper. “How many clothes is she gett
I smile And try to quickly finish my food, shuffling it down as fast as I can, the excitement building within me more than I can bear. I have always wanted to watch a movie or series, I wasn't entirely bothered which, I just wanted that experience. I'd always have the guards talking about films and things like that, But I've never seen them myself, bath as I didn't like slaves using anything, let alone a TV.Most of the time we weren't even allowed to read the books in the library, he forbade us, said we weren't worth it. That we didn't deserve it, that we never would. he treated slaves like less than humans, less than wolves, most meant nothing to him. But, because of what I was he wanted me more than he cared about the others, I was special to him. Not in the way I was special to these wolves, rather that he would have been able to use me however he saw fit and I would have been able to do nothing to stop him. I would have been utterly powerless against him a
The garden was breathtakingly beautiful as well walked around, we chatted some more, but mostly about me and what I liked. I didn’t have much to say, but what I did Alexander listened and took it all in, as though he was attaching every moment to memory. We sat on a bench that was located at the edge of the garden, facing the dense woods with a cup of hot chocolate, something I had never tried before but quickly learned that I liked.“I’ve never tried this before.” I say, taking another sip. “Balthazar didn’t have things like this they I knew of.”“I’m glad you like it, it’s gets cold here so hot drinks are good for you.” He responds with a smile, taking a sip of his own drink.“What is your favourite drink?” I ask, curious about what he likes.His smile widens as he looks at me. “I would have to say coffee, I’m not myself without it. I can be quite gru
I growl under my breath, not sure why they all insist on carrying me when I have two perfectly good legs myself, but I say nothing; I didn’t really want to upset him when he seemed so sure it’s what he wanted to do. We all headed back into the pack house and into the den, the guys arguing over what movie to show me next, and that I needed educating quickly before I enjoy the wrong ones. I didn’t know why it was so important to them and they they had to argue, but the serious looks on their faces made me laugh. Alexander moved us to the sofa and sat down with me in his lap, his eyes watching my every move as I witnessed the others nearly physically fighting over the streaming site they had finally chosen.“How about another Disney film?” I ask, trying to defuse the building situation.“We’ve already lost her!” Zane grumbled as he dramatically fell back on the sofa, his hand over his eyes. “We’re too late.&rdquo
I reluctantly woke in bed, the sun blaring through the curtains as I tried to beckon sleep to return to me, my head still pounding from the mate mark that Zane had given me. I could feel all my mates around me, Matthew at my back with his arm draped over my waist, Alexander at my front as he absently stroked my hair. Zane and Dean were near my legs, holding onto me as though I may disappear at any moment. I was so grateful for them all, for everything they have already done for me and all they will continue to do, I still don’t feel worthy, but perhaps I can accept that they are mine either way.I smile to myself, keeping my eyes closed as I embraced them all, loving the feel of them against me, of their skin against mine. It was pure bliss and I didn’t want it to end, after everything that had happened in my life I was finally happy, I finally felt like I belong and I was terrified that if I took it for granted; even for an second. It would all be ripped aw
I make my way down to the kitchen with a spring in my step, looking forward to breakfast with my men, with the men I'm going to spend the rest of my life with. I wonder if it will always be this exciting, if I will always feel so happy around them, I hope it does. I never want it to end, I want them always. I walk in to the kitchen with a massive silly smile on my face, staying by the doorway as I watch them all work together making breakfast.Zane is near the breakfast bar, mixing the batter to make pancakes, the smell of it lingering in my nose. He has a swing to his step as he dances to the upbeat song on the radio. The same music I could hear hallway up the stairs. I smile more at his childish antics, pleased that he is so carefree, it makes me feel his happiness just by watching him go.Matthew is by the expensive coffee maker, making everyone the fuel we need to star the day, he had a small smirk on his face as he added cream and sugar
Breakfast was amazing, the mixture of fruit and meet was a nice combination and we all enjoyed chatting and laughing together. It was nice and relaxed, something I think we all needed, something that we craved from each other.“Dean?” I called from across the table, sipping on my coffee. “Do you know if Eve ever got me those clothes?”“Yes she did, their in your room.” He replies, a wide smile on his face. “I’ll show you once we are finished here.”“Alright.” I smile, excited to see what she bought.“Bored of my clothes already, love?” Zane asked, smiling widely.“They are pretty boring.” I wink.“I’m wounded.” He frowned, “I like you in my clothes.”“They’re comfortable , I just don’t want to wear them forever.” I say, trying to make him feel better.I finish my breakfast and down the
