All Chapters of Ruling The Pack (Mated To The Night Book 3) : Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I hugged Night again, tears of relief welling up in my eyes. Shortly after the elder’s announcement, beer and soda appeared, and the smell of fire and burning charcoal filled the air.The party mobilized around us, filling the training grounds. Musicians took spots on the platform so that their music would be heard over the raucous laughter and conversations. Night and I were at the center, our closest friends and family at our side.As the festivities started in earnest, the elders and a little over half of the Kings decided to head to their homes. Most of those who were leaving were older, but there were also some young ones who would otherwise have jumped at the opportunity to let loose. Those were the ones who had screamed the loudest for Night’s death. Either shame or anger over Night’s win drove them to turn in early.The Kings who stayed to enjoy the festivities with the Wargs were those Night and I had interacted with: parents, fighters, organizers, and the like. People who li

“You’re already wet, love.”He was right. I’d wanted him from the moment the challenge ended. My desire for him burgeoned as he pushed my panties to the side to stroke my sensitive lips with the pad of his thumb. I whimpered and opened my legs wider. He knew exactly how I liked it, knew when to add pressure, when to tease. I was so eager that it didn’t take long before he sent me over the edge. My hands clutched his hair as I panted, ecstasy rippling through me.“Bryn,” Night rumbled. His eyes glowed like the candles around the bath. “I want you out of this dress and in my bed. Now.”Only a fool would deny the alpha when he wanted something so badly, but I could stall. I kissed him twice quickly, but on the third kiss, I ran my tongue gently over his lower lip. His shudders made the water ripple.“Bryn,” he warned.I pulled away, pressing my lips together to keep from smiling too hard. Standing, I pulled the dress over my head as I made my way into our bedroom. I heard the water as he

“Now that I am the alpha of both packs, I want to build something new and better, something not rooted in the past. There are things that the Kings and Wargs can learn from each other, if you’d only open yourselves up to that. I suggest you all make use of your time here to get to know the Kings, see the state of the homes that we’re helping them rebuild, hear the stories of their lost children, and watch how women and children have been taught to stay silent and out of the way, to flinch away from men.”I paused, letting those words sink in for a few seconds. And then Dom started speaking.“I can vouch for all of this,” Dom said. “I heard the stories while I constructed new cabins with them. I’ve seen how many of them changed when they were offered kindness and aid after Troy masterminded the plot to devastate them with ferals. There’s more to them than we’ve thought. And the wolves who were the most violent toward us left of their own volition to join Troy.”I looked from face to fa

On one side were Wayne, Ellen, Graham, Ida, and Jasmine, and on the other side were Colby, Ross, Dana, Edward, and Grant. They were completely silent as they ate.“Looks like a face-off,” Tavi said, just loud enough for us to hear. “What the hell is up with that?”“Probably has something to do with our meeting with them,” Dom replied.“It was a shitshow,” I said. “They asked if I was going to follow through on a hostile takeover. I told them I wasn’t, and I said they should get to know the Kings before they demand that I kill them.”“Sounds reasonable to me,” Tavi said. “But I bet their response wasn’t.”“Hell, no,” Dom said. “They threatened to get rid of Night if he didn’t follow through.”Bryn scoffed. “I wish I could say I was surprised, but I’m not. I guess they’re willing to sink to any low to get what they want.”I sighed as we sat at a little table near a tall oak tree. “I was hoping I’d be able to keep them in line, but I’m not so sure. This is the last thing we need with our

As I walked to him, he looked at me with a very satisfied grin on his face. “Hey, beautiful,” he said. “Have you seen yourself lately?”“What do you mean?”He got up, still naked, and took my hand. He pulled me in front of the tall mirror. It was new, something I’d bought at the marketplace a few days ago. I’d hardly looked into it except to give myself a cursory once-over.“What?” All I saw in the mirror was my damp hair and towel-covered body.He laughed and gently removed the towel. My eyes widened at the round slope of my belly. Almost five months had passed since Night became alpha, and so much of my time had been filled with organizing meetings to get Kings and Wargs used to each other and getting accustomed to my role as den mother. I hadn’t even realized I was showing.“Oh my goodness,” I breathed as I ran my hands over the bump. “Feels like this just sprang up on me.”“Gods, you look so beautiful,” Night said. He placed his hands over mine and lowered his lips to my neck.I l
