Benji’s POVI stood in front of the full-length mirror, wearing the deep purple velvet floor length gown with fitted sleeves that my mother and I purchased. It fits my small frame in all the right places. The low V of the neckline accentuated my small perky breasts. I am not a curvy woman, but this dress made me look slender and fit, even my ass looked good. Hands slide up my bare back with the feel of the zipper being tugged together from the dress. The tingles shoot up my spine making my body involuntary shiver with arousal.“You look stunning.” His arms wrap around my waist, and he rested his head on my shoulder as we looked at ourselves in the mirror. Being in Gregory’s arms was heaven for me. I memorize his handsome self. He is wearing what has been dubbed the “Penguin suit” by Alpha Mars: a three-piece black and white tuxedo. “Dance with me.” He kisses my earlobe.I giggled as he grabs my fingers and spins me around to face him. Swaying back and forth to the imaginary music, th
Benji’s POVMy legs felt a little wabbly walking down the terminal as I exited the plane. It had been a long flight, and I was needing to get my bearings from finally being on solid ground again. The time difference wasn’t helping either. Every part of me ached from sitting for so long and I knew the only thing that could cure this was a good strong cup of coffee. My team and I gathered together and started walking to the luggage pickup area, each grumbling softly to our own selves. We were all equally tired and needed a good rest.We had arrived in the North in the beginning of morning, and outside the airport vast windows the sun slowly rose, uncovering the darkness blanketed everything it had once touched. There was something old world about the North; an untouched space in a historical timeline from modern development greeted us.“I am freezing already, and we haven’t even made it outside yet! Bee! I need a wolfy cuddle!” Bennet pushed down the long sleeves of his sweater over his
Benji’s POVWe drove away from the airport in the two black SUVs to our destination in the Northeastern Territory. It didn’t take long to feel like we had stepped out of reality and into the fantastic pages of a fantasy novel. Large multi-colored trees towered over the winding roads like guarded sentinels to the beauty of the looming mountains in the distance. The giants of rock and earth with their jagged peaks rose into the mystic clouds to see the heaven like stairway to the gods.I couldn’t catch my breath from the multitude of hues before me. Everywhere I looked it was something new to see. A paint and canvas of field of wildflowers, rows and rows of farmlands, groups of cabins all scattered around the vast lands. Was the North frozen in time by some magical spell preserving its beauty?“Twenty more minutes and we will be at the capital packhouse…” Our driver said breaking the silence of the vehicle.But I couldn’t comprehend anything but what my eyes were seeing. Massive fields
Conrad’s POV“Alpha Conrad, we don’t expect anything but food and shelter. We are here to do a job at YOUR request, not be wined and dined. Now we will be leaving here in just a few minutes and should be at your pack in about….” There was a short pause, “in about two hours. Is that satisfactory to you?”Who the hell did this Sherlock person think he was talking too like that? I am the Alpha! Yeah, I insinuated that he was expecting some glamorous welcome. Dr. Mason was an arrogant ass, he better be worth all of this fuss. We know nothing about this doctor. He could be a fake for all I know. This was the first time we have spoken since Doc said they were on their way from the states to the North. Ok. Yes, I dropped the ball on my duties to reach out, but I have been a little busy, so I left that task up to Doc.I was stunned by his snarky attitude, but if I retaliated there was a chance he would turn around and leave. Doc would kill me if that happened. I would have to grin and bare it
Conrad’s POVI enter the pack house through the Omega staff entrance on the far side of the building. I didn’t want to come in through the front doors. I wanted them to think I was waiting for them, not off doing my duties. I cross through the long hallway to find my Delta Canice standing impatiently pacing. He must have known I’d come this way. When he sees me, he lets out a sigh of relief.“Hey, they here?” I say as I rush by him. Our boots’ footsteps echoing on the wooden floors as we sprint to the front of the packhouse. I hate being late. There’s a rule I always like to follow: if I am on time, I am late, if I am early, I am on time and if I am late, why did I even bother showing up?He nods as he follows close behind me. “Yeah, they are in the living room waiting to meet us. Shamus is already there with Sean.”My wolf, Titus, starts to pace back and forth in my mind. Lately he has been agitated, but never explains why. He is growling and snarling close to the forefront. ‘What i
Benji’s POVThe nurse leads Artemis and I to a door marked with “Chief of the Hospital” in big black letters on the frosted glass. She knocks and a low voice answers. We walk in and see a man with dark rimmed glasses sitting behind a single desk. He’s a typical werewolf male, tall, well-built, and handsome. He has short reddish blonde hair which styled to one side and deep blue eyes. He looks up from his desk and eyes us curiously like he wasn’t expecting to see us.“Dr. Lancon…” The nurse bows and exits the room. I look around at the walls of the office and see several diplomas and certificates neatly framed along the walls.Artemis moves forward and decided to start the conversation. “Good afternoon, Dr. Lancon. I am Artemis, Head warrior from the Blue Eclipse Pack.” She reaches out her hand and the doctor shakes it. “This is Dr. Benji Mason. You requested her assistance with the recent epidemic.”Artemis steps out of the way so I can offer my hand, but the doctor doesn’t move to ta
Bennet’s POVI wake up to the sound of knocking on my bedroom door. The sun is not fully up above the mountain view, I look at the time and groan in irritation. I have only slept about three hours and this sexy gay man needs at least 9 hours to function without pulling out my bitch card and slapping someone with it.Another knock… Dammit I hope it is not the Alpha again. He has been giving me a look I can only describe as confusion and uncertainty. While Benji was off doing her superhero Sherlock thing at the hospital last night, the rest of the team and I went to have dinner with the Alpha and his squad with a few of their warriors who were assigned to us. He requested I sit next to him at the long Alpha table. He periodically would glance up at me from his dinner plate which sent a shiver up my spine. Not the kind that make your dick get up and sing the praises to the Cum Gods, but the one that makes you wish you had bought stock in pepper spray. Don’t get me wrong, he is drop dead
Bennett’s POV“Well, well, well, Isn’t it the human who always came in second place…” Hazel smiles a toothy grin as she gives me a sneering look as if I am something disgusting that needs to be taken out with the trash. Her blonde hair swinging with the sway of her hips. Her tight skinned dress is tackier than my grandmother’s couch. ‘Probably made out of the same material.’ I think to myself.What in the hell is she doing in the North anyway? Wasn’t she supposed to be back in the Crystal Lake Pack with her parents, demoted to Omegas? After what happened with the Alpha King of the States, I thought she was band from traveling. Does Ciara and Alpha Mars know she is here? Shit. I should call them. I move to stand closer to the woman’s bathroom; hoping Hazel’s destination isn’t the same. “Well, isn’t it the skank who’s been around more times than a Merry Go Around at the state fair.” I smile back as I cross my arms. Hazel and I have been enemies since middle school… debate enemies. We
Conrad’s POV(Mandatory Alpha Virtual Meeting)I was filled with a renewed sense of determination since Benji told me that Tomas was awake and responsive. He wasn’t completely out of the woods, but he was back in his right mind temporarily at least. The news of Tomas’ returning quickly spread through my pack. The emotional fog that seeped into my pack was lifting with the news of Tomas’s slow recovery. Other sick wolves were given the medicine and it was just a waiting game to see if they also recovered as well and how much.Tomas was removed from the jail cells and returned back into the pack hospital. I had the privilege of escorting his parents to his new room. It was like he was back from the dead. His mother sobbed into my arms while his father hugged Benji. I smiled at Tomas who gave me a slow nod of respect. He quietly spoke with Benji for a few minutes before she recommended he get some more rest. “Alpha.” He whispered and I turned to look at him. "Thank you for not giving up
Benji’s POVI checked Tomas’s vitals for the hundredth time in the last few hours, but there wasn’t any change. His heart rate was steady and there was no movement or muscle reactions. The tranquilizer was doing its job and keeping him asleep. Holding open his eye lids, I checked his pupils with a light, no change. His eye color was still red when they should have been a “A beautiful brown” according to his mother. I will admit he was a handsome man, but nothing like Conrad.Speaking of the devil, Conrad texted me to check in, but all I could say was nothing yet. He wasn’t happy or mad that Tomas’s parents volunteered him for the medicine. I think Conrad was trying to avoid showing emotions toward the situation which I didn’t blame him for. Tomas was a pack member and Conrad respected all his members in his pack and in the territory.‘Dahlia, Can you sense Tomas’s wolf?’ I spoke to my wolf through our bond, but she just shook her head. It was like his wolf was dormant which wasn’t a g
Benji’s POVI stood outside the small meeting room in the pack’s hospital taking in a few last minutes breaths before I faced the families of the sick wolves. The different states of illness weighing heavily on my mind. A few wolves were in the beginning stages of the poison, while others were in more advanced stages and degrees. Some were in jail cells fighting off the feral wild madness while others were on the brink of death. Tomas, the warrior I had taken a personal interest in his recovery coming to mind. His parents have spoken with me several times about his days as a top warrior and his mate who was a teacher before she turned feral. They loved to brag about their grandbaby as well. Tomas was all the child had left, so I wanted his recovery more than anything.“Sherlock?” Artemis spoke up behind me. I turned to look at my friend, my expression completely raw with emotions. She gave me a knowing smile. “These families need hope and eventually a cure… Go talk to the families lik
Text Message ConversationsBenji: Conrad? Are you busy? For a quickie?Conrad: Hey love, never busy for you. For a quickie huh? I’m always up for a quickie. Do you want me to come to the lab or do you want to come to the packhouse?Benji: Can you click on the link and meet me in the secured chat room?Conrad: Oh, So you want to do some dirty talk first without anyone knowing huh? Benji: And can you send the link to your squad as well? The password is Saved by the BellConrad: Wait… What? You said QUICKIE! And Why didn’t you put that whole thing in one text message? You got my hopes up… and something else up as well. I haven’t seen in you in over 24 hours, my dick is hard and disappointed.Benji: Ew Perv! Now click the link and meet the team in the chat room with your squad.Secure Chat roomBenji: Bennet why did you call Conrad a perv? And I never told you to tell him Quickie! I said Quick-LY! As in time sensitive. Sorry Conrad, I gave Bennet my phone to text you for me since I was
Benji's POV “Why not? Telling him what your family said and how you feel will change… Oh…” Then it dawned on me. Why he wouldn’t tell Bennet yet. Knowing Bennet, he would tell him to chose his family. Family is so important to Bennet since he was adopted. Dean nodded his head.“I made my choice and I don’t regret it one bit. Even if he doesn't accept me, I can't be with a family that would abanded me so quickly just because of who my mate is.” Dean’s eyes met mine and even though there was some sadness in his dark orbs, there was also hope. “Now just need to win him over.”“OH NO! You are not being in charge of the trivia cards again! I can’t be stuck in a room for the next Goddess-knows how many hours listening to you rant and rave about 80s and 90s pop culture!”We heard Ashley yell at Gray through the door. I laughed and Dean looked mildly amused. “This is going to be interesting, isn’t it?”I smile warmly at him, “Yep…” Then a thought occurred to me. “When Bennet does accept you,
Benji’s POV (Forty-eight hours prior to Alpha Meeting)“I am going to send maintenance to come clean up the mess, and then I am going over to meet some of my warriors so we can get to the bottom of this. Ok?” Conrad’s words gave me no comfort as I continued to look down at the frozen image of the man on the screen. I was pretty certain I had seen him before, but I couldn’t quit put a finger on it. I simply nodded my head, but I was already formulating plans of my own in my head as Conrad and his men left the lab.I can’t believe someone would destroy the lab. I mean, this isn’t the first time someone tried to stop us from solving a mystery, but it was never to this level of intent. The broken glass, destroyed computers, books shredded, our lab equipment… all just gone. This just solidify my thoughts that the illness was man-made and I needed to get to the bottom of it. With new determination, I looked around the room at my team. If I was going to get them back to their A game, I am go
Nathaniel’s POVI can hear my phone buzzing uncontrollably for the last ten minutes, but I ignore it. I am too busy right now to be bothered with whoever is calling. The caramel blonde sucking my cock is getting a jaw workout as she bobs up and down on my hard member. “Yeah, Benjamina… That’s it… suck like a dirty slut you are.”Pictures of the beautiful doctor litter my desk. Pictures of her leaving the packhouse, at the coffee shop, walking into the hospital. One of Davis’s spies sends me daily updates on her just like I requested. Fuck I want to see more of her, especially with her underneath me while I plow deep inside her. I wanna see tears run down her cheeks and fear on her face. I want to see her body covered in bruise marks and my bites all over that pretty unblemished skin. My dirty thoughts tighten my balls causing cum to explode out of my shaft. My hands push down the female’s head so I can shoot my load down her throat. She struggles some, but I don’t care. I am getting m
Conrad’s POVBenji and I haven’t spoken much in the last forty-eight hours unless it was through text message about the break-in at the lab. We also haven’t had a chance to talk about why she woke up sobbing. Did I do something wrong? Was I mistaken in thinking that our night together was perfect? She was full of passion and responsive towards my touch but then fell asleep so suddenly afterwards. It made me slightly disappointed, but I could feel through the bond how exhausted she was. She is working so hard to figure out this strange illness and I guess her body just gave out. Holding her through the night did bring me the peace I truly needed. With every intake of air I took, her scent filled it. I knew at that moment when we both fell asleep in each other’s arms, I could never let her go back to the states. She is mine. My future, my luna, my mate.After Bee got the mind-link from one of her staff members, we rushed over to the hospital to find everything at the lab in complete chao
Benji’s POV“If you want me to stop… I will stop…” Conrad says as he pulls me close to his hard chest, giving me warmth I didn’t realize I needed. His callous fingers caress the small of my back as I listen to his rapid beating of his heart. He’s waiting… Waiting for me to make a decision. “I can see you hesitating, Benji Love. If you say stop… I stop…” I raise my head just enough so I can see his eyes. Those beautiful icy blue orbs express the things I need to leap forward. Hope I will give him a chance. Patience for my reluctance. Love for his mate. Everything I need is in his eyes. So, I leap.Rising up on the balls of my feet, I wrap my arms around his neck and kiss his lips. “Take me…” The sensual words leave me as barely a whisper. The heat ignites between us. His arms wrap around me tighter, deepening the kiss, letting our tongues explore and fight for dominance. He lifts me up and places me on the bed. His large body towering over me. Tingles electrify my body when his lips
