Ben

I heard her talking on the phone with a guy, which set me on edge instantly. I had worked in my office for most of the day, but restlessness clawed at me, and I had to come back to her. My wolf was going stir-crazy inside of me, as if I were depriving him of his first meal in months.

"Let me see your beautiful face." He had said to her, and I couldn't help but hold my breath for her answer. I wanted her to tell this guy to go fuck himself, but she apparently cared for him because she obeyed his request. My wolf calmed down a bit when she lied to him, letting him think she was in a car accident. Clearly, she didn't trust him, which, for some reason, made me feel better about myself. Not that I have earned her trust, but that I wasn't the only one she didn't feel comfortable with.

I planted myself on the end of my bed, desperately listening to every movement she made, and every breath she released. I am completely fixated on her, and I hate it. I should be focusing on the woman

  • Alpha's Tension   Chapter 126: One Year Later

    Daliah"Malcome's not very happy with the outcome of the civil trial," I tell Ben with a smile when we walk through the office doors. I toss my blazer on the back of my chair just as Ben does the same, and we both sit down with long sighs on our lips. "Yeah, well, he should have read the fine print of the contract." Ben laughs when he speaks, and I look at his shining eyes with affection. "I can't believe it took so long for a trial date. Criminal trial is so much better," I say with a roll to my eyes. Ben chuckles at my reaction just as Kyle and Bethany burst through the door. "Hey, ma's watchin' Lilly for the night and thought you might wanna join us for dinner?" Lilly is their daughter, born exactly nine months after their bonding ceremony last winter. Ben looks at me with a questioning glance, and I nod my head before he responds. "What are the plans?" "Movie and dinner, nothing special," Bethany says with a shrug of her shoulders. Ben and I agree, and within the hour, we ar

  • Alpha's Tension   Chapter 125: Get the Freak

    Ben I lead the pack while we creep down the stairs to the basement. The guy has a serious fetish for keeping things in basements of abandoned houses. When we make it to the bottom, my eyes scan the darkness in front of me. Though my wolf's presence in my eyes brings a bright grey to some of the shadows, it is nothing like the vision Daliah has explained she has in the dark. At this moment, I would kill to have that vision. My ears ring with anxiety while my shoes scrape against the dirt-covered concrete, my nose flaring with every hint of the scent I catch with it. "Carter," I call out, moving forward slowly. It is dead silent, and I focus my ears close to the sounds around me. The only sound I can catch is Daliah, and my warrior's heart beats. Daliah's is pounding quickly, and I catch the scent of her sweat as she stands behind me. "Carter, I want to talk to you." It is Daliah's voice that breaks the silence, and the moment it does, the sound of feet shuffling behind us has us a

  • Alpha's Tension   Chapter 124: Closure

    Daliah"Are you fucking kidding me?" The words fall from my mouth the moment I hear Kyle say that the vampires want to relocate Carter. The last time he was 'relocated,' he ended up back in the city with a witch locked in his basement.Ben reaches for my hand instantly, and I let the touch of his skin calm my racing heart. I am sure my panic is rushing through him right now, twisting his stomach just as uncomfortably as mine is, but I can't push it down. "Hey, we can still get him," Ben tells me with his hand squeezing mine gently. Before I can respond, Kyle nods his head and speaks. "We'll have to go quickly. Jessie called just before you got here. Said the leeches just pulled up." Ben doesn't give him the chance to continue before standing, and I meet him at the door quickly. His hand falls to the small of my back when he opens the door for me to walk through, and we are in his car heading to the city in a matter of minutes. Ben drives quickly, but his eyes continuously scan the

  • Alpha's Tension   Chapter 123: Revenge or Justice

    BenI wasn't lying when I told her we wouldn't sleep if she touched me again, but she didn't seem to have an issue with it. Neither did my wolf. The sun has been streaming through the window in our bedroom for a few hours, but neither of us moves from our place in bed. "What's going to happen to Carter?" Daliah's quiet words break the silence, and my fingers that trail the scar on the side of her face pause in their movement. I release a sigh of heavy breath that is filled with contemplation at her words, but she doesn't take my silence as an answer. Instead, she turns to face me, her bare shoulders gleaming in the orange light cascading down on her olive-colored skin. "Well, the leeches have a system for betrayal. A prison system of some sort." I tell her, but she only stares at me, waiting for more information. "But, if we catch him, the pack has orders to kill him on sight." At this, she nods her head slowly, her gaze far away as she thinks about my words. "Are the vampires lo

  • Alpha's Tension   Chapter 122: New Power

    DaliahIt is not long after we mark each other that I feel the difference in my power. We had gone several rounds with each other, but when we were finally exhausted from our activities, I felt the change in the shower. It was the need to run, fight, and hunt. Every primal instinct a wolf has, amplified. "Are you all right?" Ben asks, noticing the dilation in my eyes that sends the world into a vibrant red and yellow vision. My hands feel as though they are vibrating when I reach for the black fluffy towel on the rack, nodding my head slowly. I pat my hair dry with the towel with stiff movements, attempting to bury the energy coursing through me. The attempt turns futile when the muscles in my arms strain, and I hold the towel against me tightly. My jaw clenches down with force, and Ben's hands immediately land on the side of my arms in comfort. "Daliah, what is it? I can feel your excitement, like you're being electrocuted or something," Ben says, and I take in a sharp breath bef

  • Alpha's Tension   Chapter 121: Bonding

    DaliahI knew why the pack laughed at me, and I couldn't hold in the growl that escaped me. It corrects them immediately, and I hold my head high when facing Ben's large, black wolf. His golden eyes peer into mine before he brings his body against mine. Similar to when he claimed me with his scent, he rubs his fur against mine, and I return the action. The pack is silent as they watch, and it is an eariness I am unkind to."Don't focus on them, Dali. Keep your mind on me," Ben says in my mind, and his voice rings with power from his wolf. I don't respond, but I bring my gaze to his golden eyes, pushing the nerves in my stomach down. The last time we were this close to bonding, I ended up with an ancient knife buried six inches in my stomach. His teeth lower to the edge of my ear where they pierce the skin. Red seeps into my white fur, and the metallic scent fills the air. He takes a second to lick away the blood before lowering his head for me to reach. When he does, I do the same t
