This group seems to be their own worse enemy. None of them seem to be very good at controlling themselves.
Possible Truama Triggers Reed POV Shit, shit, shit I can’t believe Lucas and I just growled at Dad. He is going to kick our asses just to prove he can. I quickly grab the tightest pair of jeans I own. It may hurt like hell if I start to get hard, but it will be harder to see. I ran back into my closet and grabbed a long baggie tee. Maybe that will help hide things too. I meet up with Lucas in the hall as he exits his room. I noticed he had opted for a similar wardrobe change, as did me. The look on his face tells me he is as concerned about what Dad is going to do to us as I am. Still feeling ashamed of growling at Dad, Lucas and I walked back into the den with our heads down. Mom and Dad are sitting in the chairs across from the couch that Heather is sitting in the middle of. Lucas heads to the left of Heather while I take the position on the right. We do tend to do that a lot of the time and not on purpose. When I finally get the courage to look up at Mom and Dad, they both have go
Possible Trauma Triggers Heather POV Grandma is back today. I have packed up my stuff. Reed has loaded it into the car for me. Shane and Mona told Grandma and Gavin that they would take me home since they had such a long drive already today to get home. For the last few days, things have been going pretty well. There had not been any weird dreams, no jealous outbursts and no heavy make-out sessions. Now was the hardest. I was standing in my room checking to make sure I had everything when Reed and Lucas walked in. There seems to be something off about them. Reed was fine fifteen minutes ago when he took my bags down. I watch as Lucas closes and locks the bedroom door. "Lucas, what are you doing? Why did you lock the door?" He didn't answer me. He just stares, like he's not sure how to answer the question or even that I said anything. Without saying anything, Reed stalks across the room, wraps his arms around my waist, picks me up and carries me to my bed. He lays me down, across i
Mona POV After the kids leave, I put my arms around Shane’s neck, pulling him down for a kiss. “That was quick thinking.” “I have no idea what you are talking about women.” I cocked an eyebrow at him. “You’re going to have me believe that you are that desperate for that recipe?” “Well duh it’s not like I’m some smart Alpha or anything that would know that the tension needed to be broken or something like that. Now am I?” He says sarcastically, rolling his eyes at me. Laughing, I pulled him down for another kiss. “I love you, you know that.” “How could you not? Look at all this.” He says as he pulls me in tighter. “Come on let’s get Heather home to her Grandmother.” I said, chuckling. I grabbed Shane’s hand and led him out the door. Shane stops just before we step into the hall. “I agree with the boys. I don’t want her to leave either.” He says with his voice filled with emotion. "Our boys are not the only ones that have grown attached to her quickly." I don't know what to mak
Heather POV They got up from the table, each giving me a kiss on the top of my head as they passed me, following Keegan out the far door. I sat down and started to eat the lunch that Reed had picked up. He’s usually the one that gets it for me. April gives me one of those what the hell looks. “Do you have any idea what that was about?” “No clue. Keegan stopped me outside my last class wanting to know if I was meeting up with the guys because he wanted to talk to them.” I had just swallowed that last bit of lunch when Reed picked me up and sat me down on his lap. “We were just informed that you have not been telling us everything that has been happening to you throughout the day.” I saw Keegan walk past our table on his way over to where the ranked wolves from Silver River sit. Lucas waved at him. “Thanks, man.” “No problem.” Keegan says, waving back. I shift myself on Reed’s lap so that I can see both of them. “What are you talking about?” “We are talking about the fact that So
Lyla POV Flashback continued The man extended his hand towards me to shake. “Thank you for agreeing to meet with us today, Mrs. Trench. I’m John Shaw. My wife will be joining us shortly. Please come have a seat.” He gestures towards the seating area that is in front of the fireplace. As I take a seat on the couch, the door opens again and in walks a woman. She is dressed in very simple plain clothes, jeans and a plain white tee that do nothing to hide her beauty. She sits beside me on the couch and grabs my hand, giving it a squeeze. “Hello Mrs. Trench. My name is Ingrid. I’m so happy that you agreed to meet with us today. I don’t know if my husband has told you yet about why we asked you to come?” “No, I had just arrived before you. We hadn’t started talking about anything yet. He did mention on the phone that it had something to do with our kids.” I said cautiously. “I don’t know if your daughter said anything to you about what happened this weekend.” She says. “I know she went
Lyla POV “There you are.” I was brought out of my thoughts by the sound of Gavin’s voice. “You looked like you were lost in thought.” “I was. I was remembering the first time I was in this building.” I said, putting my arm around his waist from the side. “You mean the first time we met? I have never forgotten that day.” He says as he turns, so he is facing me. “When I first saw you I thought you were the most beautiful woman I had ever laid eyes on since I had lost my mate. Then the Alpha told me, you were married and it broke my heart. I won’t lie, there were a few nights when I tried to think of accidents that could happen to your husband, but the thought of being the reason you were hurting didn’t sit well with me.” “Gavin, you never told me that. What made you wait so long after my husband passed away?” “I wanted to tell you the day after his funeral but I know that would not have been the time. Then I was scared, because I didn't know if you remembered me from that one time
Heather POV My eyes widen when I see Lucas standing in the doorway with so much anger on his face that I almost don’t recognize him. Reed removes his mouth from my breast, pulls my shirt down and sets me down on my feet before turning to look at his brother. Lucas was standing there clenching his fists. He takes a deep breath and growls out his question. “How long?” “What do you mean how long?” I asked, hoping I sounded calm. “How long have the two of you been running off…” He waved his hand at the two of us. “…to do this without me.” He is seething. The only emotion that is coming off of him is anger. I have never seen him like this. “Lucas, we have never done this before.” I pushed passed Reed and ran over to him. I hit him with so much force that he was knocked into the wall behind him. I reached up and cupped his cheeks to make him look at me. “This was not done to hurt you. We were not trying to hide from you. I feel some of the tension leave his body. His arm slides around m
Heather POV I straightened out my clothes but as I reached for the door handle I heard noises coming from the next level. I leaned over the railing to see what it was. Just as a head comes into view, I hear a moan followed by, “That’s right, just like that. Suck my cock. That feels so good.” That’s when I realized that the head I see in Quinn’s, but that’s not Meg. Meg is blond. Before I can back away from the railing, Quinn looks and makes eye contact with me. I started to head for the door when I heard Quinn yelling at whoever he is with. “That’s enough, stop. Get away from me.” “But I thought you were enjoying yourself and that maybe we could do more.” “More, what do you mean more? I just use you to fuck ever once and a while. That is all.” Quinn’s voice sounds so cold, but then he hasn’t really sounded or looked happy since his birthday party in the summer. Whatever happened that night between him and Meg messed both of them up. I heard the downstairs door slam. “Heather, I kno
