Channon’s POV‘No, it didn’t take when I tried to mark her.’ He sounds relieved. I decrease my speed down to a slow run. ‘Have you fucked my mate Zev?’ I need to know and my wolf snarls. ‘No Alpha, when the mark didn’t take I stopped.’ His answer sounds truthful. ‘If I find out you have lied to me then you will wish for a quick death, long before it comes. Do you understand me?’ I come to a full stop now. My wolf still wants to go and take Keeva. The human part of me tries to rationalize the situation we are now in. If I take her now my plan falls apart. I won’t get to inflict the pain he deserves and take revenge on Julius in the name of my parents. The call of her body is too much for me to bare.‘Alpha, please. Calm down.’ Jonas appears next to me. He is much smaller than me, although in normal werewolf circles he is about the size of an Alpha. I bare my teeth at him as a warning not to interfere. He crouches low to the ground to show his submissiveness. ‘I’m not saying don’t claim
If Alia is here then the High Council is tired of waiting. She has come to force my hand herself. ‘Don’t lose than knife Celeste. I think its high time your new little doggy friends put it to good use.’ I cringe at her words, not only her nasty reference to Nikita and Keeva, but knowing only this morning I had the same sentiments myself. ‘Get dressed woman, we have a lot to talk about.’ She snaps at me. I turn my back to her and walk casually to my bedroom. If they want to come and treat me like a naughty little school girl, then I’ll behave like one. I feel my cheeks flame with embarrassment as I walk away from her. Fuck it! I make sure my arse jiggles as much as it can, just to make her blush too. As soon as I’m in the privacy of my bedroom, I let out a low groan of frustration. Of all the elders they could send of course it would be her! Even though we are kin, I have never liked Alia. She is motivated by power and status. Even using me, her own niece, as a chess p
Julius’s POV‘Come here and suck my dick, you little slut.’ He slowly strokes his cock and I can see there is a drip of cum, protruding from the hole at the end. At least my job is half done, a quick suck and he should be done. I don’t see the sense in trying to protest. It will only make me even later. I walk over to him and drop to my knees. I’m still naked from last night and I notice how sore my pussy and ass feel. My wolf growls at me in disgust. His foot slips between my legs as I take his fat cock start to suck the end, I can taste the saltiness of his seed. It almost splits the sides of my mouth as I take it all the way in. I rub myself on his foot. If I need to make him cum, I can at least make sure I do too. I run from his house and down the pathway to the truck. I don’t even have time to brush my teeth now, and I can still taste him. I feel vomit threaten to burst up and out of my mouth. I’m never normally this nauseous. Chad is waiting by the pickup. He loo
Canagan’s POV‘I think making sure my fated mate is a bit more important than your fucking bar, Uncle!’ the last word is a sneer. ‘I don’t know what you think Keeva is to you other than a stepsister you once had Channon. One day soon you will be Alpha of Crimson pack. Maybe start acting like one, like your father.’ Channon growls at me in my head. His wolf is angry. ‘I am already Alpha to you and to White Claw pack. Who are you to question me Canagan?’ Even his voice is like the angry snarls of a wolf. ‘Keeva is my mate and I will kill anyone who hurts her or tries to take her from me.’ I don’t know what to say. If what he says is true then Keeva really is a werewolf. How do I tell him she plans to leave Monday, and I’m the one she expects to help her escape? I tell Channon everything about Keeva, Nikita and the Witch. How Julius has been poisoned by Wolfsbane for the last six months and is now riddled with cancer. That Keeva has been working here and saving some of he
Keeva’s POVMy throat is on fire and when I swallow I can taste the hint of coppery blood. I look in my little mirror and see the bruises on my neck from his hand. My eyes are puffy and red. I try and think of a way to hide both the bruises and my swollen eyes. I pull my turtle neck jumper from my suitcase. This will have to do. I don’t want any awkward questions from Canagan when I see him. I would die of embarrassment and I’m sure he would be angry. I can’t accept that what Zev did to me is ok and how a mate, chosen or fated, would act? The last thing I need right now is Canagan going for Zev and my escape plan going even more down the toilet.I take my things and walk down the hallway to the bathroom. ‘Hurry up Keeva. You’re going to make me late!’ He shouts from the kitchen I scrubbed for him this morning. I will take as long as I damn well please, I think to myself. I have a quick, cold shower. I didn’t have time it let the water run and heat up, Zev has already knocked on the do
Nikita’s POV When she finally comes to her senses and the whole situation dawns on her, she looks worried and a little sick. She has never bought up the fact that I’m made to sleep with her father, and the fact is, she has probably heard a lot of what happens in his room. I notice her eyes are very red, it looks like she has been crying. Such a waste of energy, tears don’t solve problems. I have been so wrapped up in my own problems I completely forgot! ‘Fuck! I’m sorry Keeva. Let’s see your mark then?’ I can’t hide my shock to see the crook of her neck is still untouched. ‘Didn’t he try and give you his mate mark Keeva?’ My confusion apparent from the twisted look on my face. That was the whole point of Alpha Julius putting on that ridiculous display last night. In his mind he was protecting Keeva. She looks as confused as me. Goddess help us all, what the fuck is going on now. I don’t think I can take much more. ‘Get in, we will sort this shit out. Te
Julius’s POV‘Come to the house and bring your things with you.’ I order Nikita through the mind link, only just short of using my Alpha command. I have been waiting for this girl all evening. She has been behaving so irrationally. Leaving Chad behind like that this morning and then coming back so late from the market. What is she thinking? I know Keeva was with her and they were no doubt messing around and taking their time, but I am their Alpha and they will do as they are told. I feel especially tired and agitated today. Normally after I have spent the night with Nikita. Sometimes I wonder if it might be my wolf craving to be with her, but I don’t feel drawn to her. Not like I was to Caeli or Keeva’s mother. ‘I am coming my Alpha. I will be there very soon.’ Nikita responds. She sounds almost seductive in my head. I look at my reflection in the in the big tv that’s hung on the wall above the fireplace. I notice how my eyes have lost their sparkle, now dull and sad.
Channon’s POVI can’t communicate with Keeva. Without a wolf I am unable to make the mindlink. I growl at her. She doesn’t move. ‘Please, Keeva, move out of the way.’ I beg silently to her. My wolf can’t help but be pulled towards her amazing scent. I almost purr at her as I back down enough for her to not feel threaten. I decide the best thing to do is sift, so I can talk to her. ‘Alpha, please be careful.’ I can feel confusion pulsing from the minds of my Beta’s and High Delta’s behind me. ‘I will be. Keeva is my fated mate. I will not harm her. You will all protect her, do I make myself clear.’ They all give me their obedience. I feel Ebony’s anger, but she dare not disobey me. ‘Channon!’ I smile at her. My transformation into a man is complete. I feel her eyes and she avoids looking at my cock that hangs heavily between my legs. My wolf purrs and rolls around on the floor, he wants his mate. ‘Keeva. I’m surprised you didn’t recognise me yesterday, especially when I
