James - Mother!!! I bellowed through the house as I entered it. I took a deep breath to see how it smelled and only got scents of all our family members which made me sigh in relief. At least that means Laila is safe. I don't know why I hoped my mother was at home if, by typical routine, she should be at work. I tried to mindlink her but got nothing. She felt far away, which only confirmed that she was out of the pack territory for work. Next, I tried to reach my father but got nothing as well. - Fay!! I called out while walking towards her wing and trying to mindlink her the next moment but got nothing from her. She felt like she wasn't on the pack grounds either. Where the h.ell was she? I turned in the opposite direction, trying to reach Adriana. "Adriana!!" I screamed down the mindlink. "For Goddess's sake, why are you screaming? What's the matter?" She scolded me through the mindlink. Thank Goddess, at least she is responding. "Where are you?" I demanded the most important
Laila Just half an hour later James announced that we were going for lunch as everyone ate at a certain time during the day in a big dining hall. I am grateful James is with me, as we enter the dining room all the chatter stops and all the eyes are on us. No, me. I am the complete outsider here, the ugly duckling, the oddball. Maybe it is my imagination, but I felt like they were judging me with grunts and huffs and displeasure that they had to share their space with a weakling human. I guess I was freaking out without a reason as some smiled and some just kept on eating staying on neutral grounds. James nodded at everyone and guided me towards a buffey-like table where we could put whatever we wanted on our plates and I was grateful many items were cooked and placed separately so I could choose something vegetarian among tons of different kinds of meats. As we had our plates full, he pulled me towards a group of people among whom I recognized his cousin with whom I danced at the ch
Laila Just after lunch, James was called for an urgent task, so I was left behind sitting in the room. As I stared into the space that was not in any way mine yet, I felt fidgety. I wanted to get out of here, so I left the room. I would have loved to walk around the pack grounds, maybe even wander inside the forest, but unfortunately, James forbade me to do it alone and I didn't want to be anyone's burden yet, so I decided to walk around the pack house and see what was where. I decided to go down and see floor by floor. I stepped onto the third floor seeing there were many doors on each side of the long hall. I absentmindedly just walked from one end to the other until I found myself at the doors with a golden-color plate that stated: "Alpha Ayden Ridgeway" in black letters. Wow, on a golden plate, huh? I wonder if it is real gold...A smug smile spread on my lips. Let's see what this special person is made of, shall we? I thought to myself and knocked on the doors. - Come in, Laila
Laila - So Alphas are the blue blood of werewolf packs, yes? I asked, changing the subject. - Blue bloods? He questioned the terms I was using. - Yeah, like the royals and kings that used to rule. The title was always passed down to the eldest son or the next one by age if the need arose, and sometimes to the daughter, if she was the only child. It's not even a question of whether the person's slash werewolf's personality or character is suitable to rule, to be the leader. It's just a birthright. I question the system again. - Yes, it is like but for us it is due to genetic abilities. Unfortunately, you are right, because there are some shitty Alphas who are everything but good leaders. Ayden supplied his answer seriously. - So, I should call you 'Your Majesty', huh? I teased him a little bit to lighten the mood. - No. He cuts me off with a dark look. My face softens and a wicked smile blooms at the left corner of my mouth. There is just something when a werewolf tells me "
Laila I was asleep until I felt the bed dip and strong arms pulled me by my waist towards a hot and rockhard chest. I sighed inwardly and relaxed. I was relieved that James was here. It wasn't easy to fall asleep on my own in this new room in the strange packhouse. After spending some hours in the library reading random book covers and indulging in a few of them, I came back to the room. I was restless, so I decided to do what I should have done a long time ago. I called my sister and told her about the new circumstances I was living in and how overprotective of my safety James was. She screamed excitedly when I confessed I was together with James. Though she was worried about me living in a close-knit community thinking I got myself involved in some kind of sect. How else could I explain the circumstances? I couldn't tell her about werewolves or the packhouse. I skipped the part about me living with James' family for two weeks because I didn't have a normal reason why I moved again.
After some time, I felt his fingers opening my folds and his tongue slipped in my v*gina, making me inwardly frown. I felt his tongue coming in and out several times until I propped my body on my elbows and pulled my hips slightly sideways so he couldn't get access. - What are you doing? I asked confused but curious. - I'm tongue f*cking you! What? I saw his white teeth grinning at me as the light from the window hit him. I frowned again. - That's gross. Why would you do that? I asked, concerned. - Gross? No. You are sweet as honey, and I want to pleasure you in any way possible. He replied smiling while brushing his fingers over the erogenous zones on my thighs, making tingling sensations and distracting me. - Well, your tongue is too small and short for me to feel any proper sensation, and as I don't feel comfortable when you just did it, so can you not? When you lick my cl.it is all amazing, I love it. I tried to convince him there was no need for strange experiments. Good
Laila It was Wednesday evening and I was still typing on my laptop trying to finish the last things so I could wrap up for the day in half an hour or so. I knew James would be gone till late at night on another secret mission of his. I didn't know what I would do later but I didn't want to work extra just because I didn't have a plan for the evening yet. A soft knock surprised me as I looked at the doors. Who was visiting me? Did someone need something from me? It wasn't dinner time yet for Kate to come... - Come in! I shouted from the sofa hoping I left the door open. I saw the door handler bend but the doors didn't open. - Shoo! I cursed and put the laptop on the sofa while hurrying to the door. As I opened it I was surprised to see Fay standing there. - Hey! What a surprise! I said as she waved at me with a soft "Hi!". - Sorry about that! I was working and too lazy to open the door, so I hoped I left them open, but no. Sorry. I rushed to explain to her as she smiled at me
Laila - So, Laila, what do you do in your free time? Lucas changed the subject drastically, and I was grateful to him for it. I looked at Fay as we smiled, knowing we had this conversation before. On weird but perfect synchronicity, I and Fay said: - Picks fungus. - Play piano. That made Lucas turn to Fay with a frown: - Picks fungus? While at the exact same moment, Ayden turned to me and asked with a frown: - Play piano? And at the end, Fay turned her face away from Lucas to me with a surprised face: - You play piano? The perfect timing of talking made most of the people, sorry, werewolves chuckle, including me. - Wait, start with the fungus. Lucas demanded with a nod of his chin towards me. - It's nothing. In my country, we have a lot of forests, so when late summer slash autumn comes many people go and pick mushrooms. I grew up in the middle of the forest, and as mom still lives there, we do it every year. I said with a shrug. - We know all the best spots for the ch
JamesI was frantic in my emotions and my heart was beating so fast. How did my mate manage to get herself in such a big sh*t I will never know. But somewhere subconsciously I knew that her big mouth and brutal truthfulness would get her in trouble sooner or later, I guess today was the day.When Alpha boomed down the link "Your mate is in trouble. Packhouse. Now", I ran like never before in my life across the field from the training ground. I just dropped a message through the mindlink for another warrior to continue the training and shot further with all the speed that my wolf supplied for me as he was equally worried about our mate.When Laila stepped out and started to walk towards Klaid, who was seething, I saw his fists were tight, and he angrily clenched his jaw until, at one moment, he shifted to his wolf, who growled equally angry. On pure instinct I wanted to follow, but Alpha put a hand on my chest.- Wait. If he truly attacks her, we will both step in.Alpha said lowly. I
LailaI woke up slightly disorientated as I took in my surroundings. Right, I'm at the pack house of werewolves. Though it will soon be a month since I was here, it still felt strange to say it. I stretched like a cat and lazily looked around the room. It was empty as usual, as James should be at training now, or maybe he was sent to another mission; I'll find out soon. I looked at the ceiling mindlessly and remembered the walk in the forest with James and later with his wolf yesterday. I loved his wolf's fur, he had such a soft coat, I just wrapped myself around him and buried my nose into his wool. He had the animalistic smell, but it wasn't that bad. I softly smiled at the memory.I sighed, it was still strange, even weird and partly unbelievable that he was a werewolf, that I now lived in a werewolve community. As most of the time I spoke with their human parts, it felt like I was surrounded by humans, it felt normal, but every time I saw a wolf or someone shifting, it still felt
- I could say something nice to most of the people in this room.She retorted back at him equally dissatisfied but still defiant.- Go ahead then!Lucas encouraged her with a hand gesture but slight mockery in his tone. There was a moment of silence from Laila while everyone looked expectantly at her. I was wondering will she back out of the challenge. Then she twisted her body over mine to see Alpha.- I think it is very nice of you to try to be more approachable to your pack members as you join the meals now and hang out with us here. I've heard many good things about that in the halls and the kitchen, wolves are truly happy about it.Laila said very sincerely to Alpha who nodded at her after the compliment. Then she turned to Fay and Lucas.- Fay, thank you for trying so hard to look after me when James is not in the house. I see you as my sweet little sister. I feel that your personality is still a bud, so I hope you will allow yourself to bloom into a beautiful flower and be who
JamesI entered the packhouse and my nose steered me towards the lounge area where my mate's scent came the strongest. As I approached I could already feel her through the bond and my heart squeezed in longing. I pushed through the doors and my focus was only on her. I was genuinely happy to see her as a bright smile shone on my face on its own accord, and my joy increased as Laila's features softened and a bright smile bloomed on her face, meaning she was happy to see me too. I plopped next to her not very satisfied that she was sitting on the same sofa as our unmated Alpha but I didn't make a fuss about it now. Instead, I pulled my mate closer and inhaled her fresh smell deeply until I felt dizzy. I sighed happily and pecked her lips, seeing her eyes shining at me.- Speaking of the devil...I heard Lucas mumble under his breath.- Am I the devil?I asked him back to which he grinned.- Are you gossiping about me?I asked the obvious.- He was prying into our relationship.Laila poin
Laila - Do you like it here? Kate interrupted my train of questions as I studied Fay. - “Here” as in this living room with your group, as in your werewolf community, or as in this city or country? I asked back for clarification. - As in our pack, in this packhouse. She specified. - Well, it feels like I am back in the dorms. It’s okay. I said as I saw that Kate still had questions on her face. - I guess I prefer to live in my place that is separated from everyone. It helps me to recharge and rest better. But it’s ok. I understand the reasons why James chose to put us here, so… What can I do? I’m just a guest here. I explained. - Is that how you feel? Kate asked surprised. - Yes? Was it a different reply than you expected? I chuckled nervously. I can say it again, I hate being fake but seems that people here can't take my honest replies sometimes. - Well, I guess I hoped you would say that you feel great here. Kate said sadly. - Sorry to disappoint. I said quietly. -
LailaSo this was my new life's routine. I ate meals together with the pack members, worked till evening, and then tagged along with Fay, as she came to collect me on days when James was not coming home early, which was almost every day. Most of the time I was silent and just observed and listened to others talking about pack life, their training, and some news as to who improved in sparring or who met his or her mate. Lucas and Kate usually tried to pull me into the conversations but depending on the topic it flowed or it died down.I wasn't used to being nonstop crowded and interacting with so many people all the time, and I could feel it started to strain me. The more tired I got from social interactions, the less I talked, and my answers became more clipped.As we entered the lounge room I rushed to sit in the corner next to Lucas. I was tired of always sitting next to the brooding Ayden. Fay followed me and sat next to me, pressing against my thigh as she didn't want to touch Luc
