Osiris' pov I hated how much time Lily was spending with Arden. She was too kind for the world. I didn’t know why Arden was talking to her, was her strategy actually working? I knew people would do anything to make pain stop and that would mean talking. But sometimes people would just make stuff up when they didn’t have any more secrets to spill. Using violence wasn’t a sure thing and I would rather spend my time doing something else. Although Santos did like the idea that we beat the guy who was spending so much time with our mate. Having Lily with me at my pack has been wonderful and once she would officially join our pack things would even get better. I just wish I could mark her soon. “So why don’t you?” Santos asked. “I want it to be her choice,” I replied. Santos laughed “you know she can’t read your mind. If you want something you have to ask her.” I had woken up and went to breakfast with Lily, but she soon went down to the dungeon. I know this was the last day, but still.
Osiris’ pov As soon as Lily was done telling me about Arden I wanted to go down to the dungeon and tear that piece of shit in half. Talking to my mate like that! Making her feel so uncomfortable. Lily was our Luna and no one should be able to disrespect her like that. Lily must have felt my anger, because she stood in front of the doorway and said the only thing that could distract me right now. “I want you to mark me”. I have thought about it every day, every time I saw that gorgeous neck. I already knew the precise spot I was going to mark her. I picked Lily up and she put her legs around me. I walked her over to my desk and sat her down. I needed an outlet for my anger and I kissed Lily passionately. I took down her pants and ripped away her underwear, making Lily gasp. “Too much?” I asked and Lily shook her head and pulled me close for another kiss. Her hands went down to my pants and she opened my zipper, releasing my manhood. Usually I liked to spend some time on foreplay, b
Lily’s pov Osiris kept his word, he had not hurt Arden. But he did mention at the end of the week that Riker had tried to get more information out of Arden, but it proved to be useless. Arden would only talk to me or show me where he was supposed to meet the two people in the car. I would go with Arden if it was necessary for the pack, but I was really happy Osiris didn’t want me to. I felt so bad for Arden in the beginning and I still didn’t want to see him dead or hurt, but I hated him for making me so uncomfortable. That is one of the things I loved most about Osiris, he valued consent more than anything. He always checked to see how I was doing and if I was still enjoying myself. I knew Osiris would never hurt me or do something against my will. Maybe it was my own fault though, I was dumb to put myself so close to someone I barely knew. I should have kept some distance Arya tried to reassure me “stop blaming yourself Lily. You were nice, that’s it. Nice doesn’t mean someone can
Osiris’ pov I was at the office when I felt the link of two pack members break. This usually meant someone had died. I heard growls, I looked out my window and was mindlinked at the same time “they’ve got passed the border and are headed to the packhouse.” I shifted and ran outside and jumped on the first rogue I saw. There were more than usual this time and they came from every direction. I mindlinked everyone who was available to fight and asked Jara what had happened. “There were too many, border patrol was just Mike and Carol today and they were killed. I am sorry Alpha, I’ve should have added more guards.” It wasn’t Jara’s fault, it had been quiet for almost a week after Arden and the other rogues had attacked us. “That can wait Jara, we need to focus on making sure the rogues don’t go into the city. Kill however you need, but make sure you leave one of them alive.” It was like the rogues kept coming. It was almost like they were targeting me. When I first heard they were h
Lily’s pov When the meeting was finished we all went to the dining hall to get something to eat. Emma joined us as well and Mia was already sitting there looking really happy to see Riker. Mia had a small boutique in the city where she sold jewelry and clothing. I had planned to visit her store soon, she always wore beautiful jewelry herself and I couldn’t wait to see what else she had. “I am so happy you are all okay” Mia said as she stood up and hugged Riker. They were really great together and had both made me feel really welcome from the moment I got here. I sat next to Osiris at the head of the table, then the Beta was seated with his mate and everyone else could sit where they wanted to. Emma and Jara were sitting next to me. We all started to eat, but Osiris just looked at me in awe “you really handled yourself well in our meeting. I would like you to join every important meeting from now on. I want you to be up to date to what’s happening in our pack.” I min
Osiris’ pov Lily suggested we go to Mia’s store together, she had been wanting to go there all week. I actually had asked Mia to make something for me, so it would be perfect. We decided to walk there, it wasn’t far and I liked showing Lily off to my pack. We walked hand in hand, our fingers interlaced and talked about small things. Is this what life is like with a mate, because I love it. “I told you finding your mate was important” Santos had to remind me, but he was right. I couldn’t imagine my life without Lily. It was nice seeing my pack through her eyes, everything was new to her and exciting. We walked passed her gallery and I saw she had finally put up some paintings up. She saw me looking “I am going back here after lunch, see if someone wants to come inside.” I squeezed her hand “I am sure someone will.” Lily stopped and looked up at me “I noticed you had some of my old paintings hanging in your office. I was too stressed that day to tell you, but thank you.” I smiled
Lily’s pov I woke up with Osiris’ arms around me. Damn it, I must have fallen asleep when he started touching me. It felt so relaxing. I had actually planned to have sex with him, but I guess he was right. I was really tired after spending the afternoon talking to everyone and selling my paintings. It had been fun though, I wasn’t used to people seeing my art and they all seem to like it. Osiris was lying behind me, my butt pressed against his stomach and something hard was poking me in my back. Well, if I missed my opportunity last night maybe I could wake Osiris up by surprising him. I slid out of Osiris’ arms and turned around, now facing Osiris and touched Osiris face softly. He was half awake now and looked at me puzzled with his sleepy eyes. I brought my hand lower and began stroking his erection up and down. A smile came on Osiris face “I don’t mind waking up like this.” I pushed softly against Osiris, letting him now he should lay down on his back and I positioned myself on
Osiris’ pov The next week went by fast. After I asked Lily to marry me we went to Riker and Jara’s parent. Alysia and Gerard Maudeux had always been there for me and it meant a lot they wanted to meet Lily. They had already heard a bit about Lily from her sister Emma. “We are so happy to have another Burton sister join our pack” Alysia said while giving Lily a hug “you look very different than your big sister, but you are equally stunning.” Lily blushed and thanked Alysia for her kind words. Before we left for Alysia and Gerard’s house we went by the gallery and I picked out one of Lily’s paintings as a gift for Alysia. Lily felt a bit shy about coming over with her art, but I knew Alysia would love it. I gave her the gift and her whole face changed “Alpha Osiris you remembered!” It was a painting of gerbera daisies, the flowers Gerard used to buy for Alysia when they were just mated. Gerard turned to Lily “you made this? It’s really good!” I mindlinked Lily, “see they love it”
