Lily
This Alpha wants something from me, something more than my body, and I do not trust him at all. I am used to the stares I get from men, but Stefan looks at me as if he wants to devour me. I get an itch over my entire body, and my skin crawls when he touches me.
The only reason I am permitting his advances is because it was pissing Konstantin off. I can tell by the way he was continually looking over here. But now he’s disappeared after drinking the entire night away and entertaining women. Why should he care, though? If I have a mate, if someone is flirting with me; why should it bother him?
His hot and cold attitude is messing with my head.
“Excuse me, Stefan, could you point me to the ladies’ room, please?” I interject one of his wooing techniques, and he frowns but directs me anyway. “I’ll be right back,” I told him.
As soon as I step away from him and into the hall, I feel like I can breathe again. I am used to being around powerful Alphas, I mean, Kai is the most powerful in New York, but something about Stefan puts me off.
After scraping the last bits of my courage together, I exhale and walk out of the bathroom. As I walk towards the hall, I catch Konstantin walking inside with his arm around the waist of another woman.
So much for making him jealous or pissing him off; he’s doing the same to me right now. I let out a low growl at the back of my throat and walk over to where Stefan is waiting for me. He smiles as he sees me approach and holds his hand out for me to take, which I do.
“Ah, I was just about to come to get you,” he says, then pulls me closer to him. I slam against his hard chest and let out a surprised yelp.
“Well now, no more courting?” I ask with a playful smile.
He shakes his head and smiles, pinning me with a crimson stare that actually makes my heart race... “Oh, I’m just getting started,” he says, then leans in close to my ear. “Leave Konstantin’s side and become my Luna Bride.”
I blink at his words and look at him when he pulls away from me. “Your Luna Bride? But we’re not mated,”
“I know, but that doesn’t stop me from wanting you any less. As soon as I laid my eyes on you, I knew I had to make you mine. So, think about it - my door will always be open for you, Lilith.” He says, removing a stray hair from my eyes and tucking it behind my ear.
My heartbeat quickens as he leans in close, his eyes flitting to my lips and then my eyes. Our lips are so close that I can feel his breath on my cheeks; he’s about to kiss me, and I’m going to let him.
“Fucking idiot!”
I hear behind Stefan, snapping me out of whatever trance he put me under, and we turn to see where the commotion was coming from. Konstantin seems to be in a fistfight with another Beta, the one from a DC biker gang.
“You’re dead, Volkov. You and your entire pack.” The biker warns, his eyes glowing silver and his claws drawn.
Stefan breathes out an annoyed sigh, and we walk over to the fighting Betas. “Enough, enough of this,” he says, looking at both Konstantin and the other wolf. “Both of you need to leave right now and cool off; I will not permit bloodshed in my own home.”
Konstantin’s silver eyes shimmer back to their usual dark colour, then he looks at me and cocks his head. “Apologies, Stefan. We’ll be taking our leave.” He then walks out with Zephyr in tow.
I walk to follow him out, but then I feel Stefan slip something into my hand as I pass him. It's only once I leave the hall that I see it’s a card with his number on it—sly bastard.
They’re both waiting in the car when I arrive, with Zephyr upfront and Konstantin lying in the back. Wait, was he drunk? Could he even get drunk? Whatever the case, I got into the driver’s seat and set off.
“That was very immature of you,” I say, looking into the rearview mirror at Konstantin, who waves me off with his hand. This dismissal pisses me off, and I can see my eyes shimmer to my halfbreed green. “What the fuck was that, Kon? You’re supposed to be the face of our pack, and now you’ve just thrown that out the door with your behaviour!”
“Fuck Stefan Russo,” is all he says, and after that, he doesn’t respond to me.
I look over at Zephyr, who shrugs and remains silent. Letting out an annoyed growl, I continue the drive home in silence.
Konstantin falls asleep on the drive, so I drop Zephyr at home at the estate, and after trying to wake Konstantin, I leave him to sleep in the back of the car. Fuck that. If he wants to freeze his ass off out here, then so be it.
I’m so fucking pissed off at him right now, and not because he interrupted my kiss with Stefan either. He made a fool of himself and of our pack he is so proud of, and for what? Just to punch a Beta he’s had a disagreement with in the past? It doesn’t seem like Konstantin at all, and he would never tarnish our reputation like that.
After I’ve gone inside my house and had a shower, I start to feel guilty for just leaving him out there, and I remove a woolly comforter from my linen cupboard. Breathing out a sigh, I wrap my silk nightgown around my body and walk out to throw this over him, at least. However, when I get to the car, I find it empty.
What the fuck? Did he wake up and leave without at least shouting at me? Damnit, I’ve angered him, and he’ll probably let me have it tomorrow morning.
“Lily,” I hear his voice over the mind link.
“I’m here,” I answered.
“Meet me in the woods behind Volkov mansion and come alone.” He orders, and I can tell by his tone that he is pissed off with me. “I am on my way.”
Fuck, what am I in for now??
Lily Oh, God, I’m in trouble, especially with the way he sounded over the link. He’s pissed off with me for putting him on the spot in front of Zephyr; I know he is. But why meet me in the woods behind the old mansion? Shaking my head, I train my ears and search for him by scent, leading me to a small clearing about a mile from the mansion. “Konstantin?” I call out, not seeing him at all, but then a pair of silver eyes meet my gaze, and Konstantin saunters out in his wolf form. I’ve always admired the Volkov wolves with their large frames, obsidian fur and powerful forms. Where Kai was a hulking mass of power, Konstantin was more lithe, even if he was twice my wolf’s size. “Why have you called for me?” I ask, still confused as to why I am here. Konstantin snarls, bearing his teeth, then shifts back into his human form - and I gasp. I’ve seen him naked before, plenty of times after we’ve hunted together. It always gives me a th
Lily I sit up, shrugging the tattered clothing from my body and pull him down on top of me, needing to feel the closeness of his body on mine again. I feel his hard cock digging into my thigh, so I open my legs and wrap them around his waist. Then our lips meet again, this time, it is filled with even more fervour, and I can taste blood. When Konstantin enters me, an unknown jolt of pleasure shoots through my body, and I let out a pent up scream. I dig my now extended claws into his back, and he lets out a roar, slamming into me over and over again. “Don’t leave me…” he whispers in my ear, “you belong at my side… stay….” He grips my hair at the back of my head as he kisses me, groaning into my mouth as the sound of my moans echoed around the quiet woods. I am so close to reaching my peak, but then he turns me around and enters me from behind, digging his claws into my waist. His thrusting increases, and for some reason, it feels like
Lily I don’t know what it is that wakes me up first - the searing pain at my wrists or the constant, painful slamming inside of me. Where am I? I can’t even remember what happened before this… When I try to open my eyes, they flutter closed again, and my mouth is incredibly dry. Groaning, I try to move, but the burning at my wrists stops me, and I cry out. This pain causes me to slowly take in my surroundings and what is currently happening to me. Someone is sexually assaulting me. I am suspended from the ceiling by silver chains, and there’s a continuous mist of wolfsbane being sprayed into the air while I am being violated. I try to move, twisting myself away from my assailant, but he holds me in place. His scent seems familiar, but it’s not one I can place. “You’re finally awake,” a sick shiver goes up my spine as I realise who it is. Hot tears slip down my cheeks as he continues to slam into me harder, gripping my
Konstantin Every now and then, I feel a sharp pain in my chest; it started when Lily left and has continued to grow exponentially. I know that it’s because my wolf is yearning for its mate, but something feels wrong - terribly wrong. Lily is my mate; I know this now. But why did she lie about leaving? Did she not feel the pull as I did? Did she not feel the same way about me because she’s not a pure werewolf? These constant questions keep me awake at night, and I know that I will need to pay a visit to Vegas soon. Fenriz mentioned that he sent Lily here to keep her from her supposed ‘destiny’, but he never fucking elaborated on what this could mean. He kept his distance and took off to Vegas before I could ask him. Things have been escalating over the last few months since she left. Kai found and claimed his mate, I died and was brought back to life by a Goddess, we lost two of our younger brothers and so many other tragedies. Some pe
Konstantin “It started at Russo’s mansion that night you sent me there. I could tell he wanted her; he had that same look in his eyes that most men have when they see her. But his look was more… slimy. I can’t explain it.” I started when we were all seated in Kai’s office. I had called for Zephyr to be present as this concerns him too. “But why didn’t you check Russo’s place in your search of her?” Dimitri asks, leaning forward in his chair and resting his arms on his knees. I shrug. “She hated the guy and his advances; I didn’t think she would head straight into his arms after leaving here.” “It’s true; Lily didn’t like that the Alpha’s attention was trained on her,” Zephyr says with a nod and screws up his face. “Especially with that odd scent on him at the time.” Kai frowns and looks at us both. “Odd scent? Describe it,” he urges. I look up at Caterina, then back at Zephyr. “Tell Kai your description, same as you did that n
LilyHis face is all I see, even as Stefan fucks me hard, even as I am trussed up in a sex swing and chains… the pain in his eyes will always haunt me. I didn’t know he was here, and I didn’t fucking expect him to walk him while Stefan had me over his desk.Konstantin is my mate, it’s always been him, but I found out too late. Stefan loves rubbing it in my face because he knows I can’t do anything about it. I can’t call out to him, and I can’t alert him to my whereabouts as I live out my days as Stefan’s glorified and willing sex slave.Of course, he punished me for hugging Konstantin when I saw him, but I had to ask for his help somehow. Even if he looked disgusted at what was happening to me, even if the disappointment and hurt in his eyes would haunt me forever.“Open your mouth,” Stefan orders as he pulls out of me and empties his disgusting seed into my mouth. I’ve co
Konstantin“Fuck,” I mutter when I see Fenriz’ Beta, Andreas, step forward. His eyes flash double gold irises, and he looks extremely pissed off - actually, they all looked pissed off right now.These are Norwegian Lycans who settled in Vegas when their first Alpha came to the states a few hundred years ago. They don’t worship the same Wolf God we do or used to, but the mate bond link seems to be pretty much the same.“Konstantin,” he drawls, holding his outstretched hand to me as his irises meld into one. Scare tactic, I see.“Andreas, I didn’t expect a welcoming committee,” I say, to which he chuckles.“Fenriz asked me to collect you. I believe this is your first time in Vegas, no?” He asks as we’re led to a line of black motorcycles and one SUV.“Yes, it's my first time here meeting with your pack,” I say, feeling really uneasy at the enti
Konstantin Well, there goes that fucking idea. “You killed the sister of a Horsemen Alpha? What the fuck is wrong with you?” I ask incredulously, but Fenriz only shrugs. “Step-sister, but whatever.” “That’s not the point, Fenriz. There’s no fucking way they’ll help me if they know I’m trying to save the sister of the man who murdered one of their own,” I say, sitting down on the leather couch with my head in my hands. Fenriz chuckles and sits opposite me. “Then don’t mention me unless you absolutely have to.” He says as if telling me the weather. Fuck, are all Alphas so self-involved?! “Why didn’t you just tell me outright that Lily was my mate? Don’t you think it would have prevented all of this shit?” I say. He growls. “Well, excuse the fuck out of me. How was I supposed to know that even her own fucking mate couldn’t tell the difference between a mate bond Sighting and butterflies? Surely you must have felt
