____________________________..."How the hell do they manage to squeeze in sex in between all of this?" Hunter wondered out loud as he watched the Alpha and Luna of his pack pour over the old papers and books in the living room floor, wearing the glasses Noelle had brought as a joke - as if they really had vision troubles. The mates had taken a break five hours ago, and had come back two hours later, with their scents all over each other. It was obvious that they did some intense mating, and yet the mark was still to be made. What were they even waiting for?They were already officially whipped for each other, though they had not vocally admitted to it... yet."Newly-mated wolves are hustlers when it comes to sex." Simon laughed, throwing his arm around his mate. The tracker was back in the pack with all of the threat of war. He wanted to be with his mate even if it meant he was to die fighting beside him. "They tend to get it done no matter whatever is going on with their lives."
___________________________ . . . "OH MY FUCKING GODDDESSS!!!" Noelle screamed as Ezekiel poured the bucket of ice into the tub. As soon as she started showing signs of her heat, he had gotten her out of the pack house and into the Wright family home. It was Noelle's first time here, but she really wasn't in the state to actually take in the place. "Can't we just fucking fuck?" She gasped. "Why are you torturing your own mate, you sadistic dumbass!!" She squirmed in the water but lowered herself into it as she finally felt relief from the feeling of her skin being on fire. "Because I don't think I can control myself!" He yelled, walking around restless and trying his best to control his wolf. Noelle was confused and pissed. "I am sorry? When the hell have you ever controlled before that you are so concerned about it now?" She asked. She was feeling much much much better. Yes, her core was still on fire and she really wanted to attack her mate, but one of the pros of being a hy
_______________________________...Are you really going to still keep quiet? Noelle laughed out to the nothingness in her head. I made such a fool of myself in front of Ezekiel but you are not even going to mutter a sigh of discontent?Nope.Noelle's wolf really was not going to speak up.It was like she had really abandoned her.Noelle did not know why her wolf was doing this to her - she still had some sort of control over their body - well, as much control as the three-quarter human form gave her - and others could see her flicker in and out of control from time to time. But she just refused to communicate with her own human.Fine. Noelle huffed as she sat down in front of the fridge, after not finding any kind of chocolate in it and also feeling light-headed and the irritating pressure in her lower abdomen from which she knew that the next wave was coming."Noelle!" She closed her eyes when she heard his voice. He had picked up on her change in scent again. She really did not w
________________________________...Noelle stood in front of the mirror, glaring at her reflection. What the hell had happened to her once perfect hair?Was it all the stress that was doing this to her hair? It had lost all its shine and it looked like a freaking bird's nest. And not the nest of one of those birds who knew to make pretty nests."Or maybe it's because you refuse to comb it out."Noelle turned out to see Ezekiel smiling at her from the doorway, Jonah beaming at her from his arms."My baby!" The she-wolf squealed, her voice extra high-pitched, making her mate flinch while her nephew giggled excitedly as he held his arms out for her to take him."Auntie Ellie, let's go for ice-cream!" He exclaimed as soon as he was in Noelle's arms."YES!""All you both ever eat is chocolate and ice-cream." Ezekiel shook his head, though he was simply jealous that they too had such a great bond, and did not let him tag along for ice-cream."And all you ever eat is my brain." Noelle stu
_____________________________..."So about getting info from rogues-""That will be an absolute no.""Why not?" Noelle resorted to whining, because there was no way she could convince her stupid mate to think rationally by speaking rationally."Because... have you thought of the probability that all rogues are in on this? That all the rogues are planning to overthrow the pack wolves.""Rogues won't do that." Noelle narrowed her eyes at her mate. Why the hell would he even think that?"And why are you so sure?" Ezekiel challenged."Because I have already told you about the different communities within the rogues, haven't I?" Noelle could not believe her stupid mate right now. Had she not made herself clear when she explained to him how the rogue communities worked?They minded their own fucking business.And the only ones who could ever be behind this are the assassins. But obviously, these wolves were very different from assassins - in aspects of both their sizes and the lack of re
___________________________..."This is all my fault." Ezekiel mumbled, clutching his head as he paced about the corridor."Instead of repeating that over and over again, would you like to tell me what exactly happened?" Hunter was leaning against the wall, one leg up, as the duo waited for Sabrina to come out and tell them what was wrong with Noelle... now."We were fighting... over something." Ezekiel breathed out.It had been seven hours. Seven whole hours and she had not even reacted. And the pack doctor had regretfully informed the Alpha that Noelle was not sleeping like she usually did when she lost consciousness. This was somewhat of a mini coma.'Why are you hiding what you were fighting over from your Beta?''What if he does not try to understand and end up misunderstanding Noelle.''What she did is wrong.' The wolf said. 'Even I can't defend her this time.''No, you just don't want to defend her this time because you are mad at her for challenging you.'Ezekiel's wolf, be
____________________________..."Remind me never to fall for your crap ever again." Hunter pointed at his two friends accusingly though his face held nothing but a smug smile.The newly marked mates had not emerged out of the bedroom till breakfast next day. And all the while, their closed ones were busy worrying about them."Every time I leave you both thinking you are fighting or need time to patch up, this is what you end up doing." He continued to speak as he poked a piece of bacon with his fork. He was about to bring it to his mouth when it dropped from his hand, his mouth left hanging wide as he saw the scene that he never thought he ever will - Noelle leaned closed to Ezekiel and rested her head on his chest."What on earth am I seeing?" Hunter just couldn't get enough of being dramatic. He turned to his mate. "Does marking do that to you? Is that why you suddenly started loving me?"Ezekiel gave him a death glare while Noelle simply rolled her eyes while Hunter's mate could
____________________________...Excruciating agony coursed through their veins as they crouched forward, suddenly clutching their hearts.Death.There was a death in the pack."Who is it?" Noelle asked out loud, though her words reverberated in the pack link. "Who is it?""There's two." Ezekiel was able to pin-point. "Two are dead.""What happened?" Ezekiel linked Hunter. "Who died?"But there was no reply.And Ezekiel realized, there was no link either.Dread built up in his chest."Why isn't Hunter or Simon responding to the mind link?" Noelle asked out loud before Ezekiel tried to communicate with Simon.Noelle's head darted to her mate, feeling the sudden dread and shock."No." She whispered. "You are just over-thinking it. They are at the pack house.""I asked them to check out the eeriness." He replied.A ominous chill ran down Noelle's spine.'They shouldn't have been there.' The voice spoke again, as if it had taken over Noelle's wolf's voice. 'No one should have wandered t
