It was an odd call.
Caleb knew this to be true, because never in his wildest dreams, had he imagined Nolan would call him. They weren’t the best of friends, hell, they were barely acquaintances. With he and Nolan, it was more of an impasse, a cold war if you please. Nolan had never approved of Caleb’s status as an Alpha, which had always amused Caleb, when he wasn’t downright annoyed by it, because Nolan was only a few years older.
At the time, Caleb had not quite gotten over the loss of his father. Deep in grief, he had done and said some unsavory things to the council, and Nolan was incensed. He had called him everything from volatile to immature, and had sponsored an entire campaign to have him stripped of his title. There were others more capable, to be Alpha, Nolan had argued. There had been quite the row between them both, Caleb had even challenged him in a fight to the death for control of both packs. It had taken months
The door opened and Roy walked into the office, closely followed by Rinaldi, “You look paler than usual.” Rinaldi teased first.Caleb let out a breath as he buried his face in his hands, “I feel like a fool.” He groaned.“Don’t sweat it, happensto the best of us.” Rinaldi stated, in a bid to help him feel better.“I have never experienced such a feeling.” Roy said.“That’s probably because you sacrificed your libido for bulging muscles and a gruff tone.”Caleb chuckled softly, as Roy cocked a brow at Rinaldi in question, but remained quiet to his teasing.“Perhaps, if my fate were so, I would not have found myself in this mess I currently occupy.” Caleb stated softly. His words brought back the dour mood to the room.“You cannot be dealt a fate you cannot na
She lowered her gaze to the floor, in a bid to avoid the intensity of his eyes, but he wouldn’t let her look away. His hand moved underneath her chin and raised her head up to look right at him, “You understand?” he asked.Cassandra nodded in response. His hand lingered underneath her chin, as his eyes scanned her features. He wanted so desperately to pull her closer and seal his declaration with a soft kiss, but just like with the other times those thoughts had snuck into his mind, he told himself it wasn’t time. Whatever would happen between them, had to be initiated from her end. It was easily, the most difficult decision he had had to uphold in so many years, and the most challenging.Reluctantly, he let his hand drop to the side, and took her hand, to lead her back to his bed, “Tell me everything that troubles you, and I promise, I’ll help as much as I can.” He said, as he lowered her onto his bed.She sighed
There was no hesitation on his part. Caleb’s hands shot out, and found her slim waist, wrapping around it to pull her even closer. Their tongues slipped into their mouths, causing a tiny whimper to escape her lips. She placed a knee on the bed, right next to his thigh, straddling him. Caleb groaned, one hand climbing higher, to grasp the nape of her neck. He felt her shiver in his arms, a reaction that had his heart swelling in his chest. This is the most he had ever gone with her, and it told of progress. The smell of her arousal flitted into his nose, and he inhaled deeply, as a growl emerged from deep in his chest. He suddenly flipped her on her back, his lips left hers to scour against her slender neck, the soft pants leaving her lips was all the music he needed to keep him going. Eager hands strayed past her waist, to her thighs. The dress she had on, had rode up considerably, so that he now had access to her bare thighs. Caleb’s mind was in a h
The wind whipped through her hair, as they passed by trees in the forest with a speed that made them no more than a blur to her.Kylie held on to the large wolf, a thrill zipping through her like nothing she had ever felt. When she had asked that Roy take her riding, she hadn't expected it to be this exciting. Nothing could quite prepare her for this experience. Her arms were wrapped around his neck, her thighs clenching against his back a bit tightly, but only because she didn't want to risk falling off.Roy's wolf was painfully aware of Kylie's presence on its back; her breasts were pressed against its back, her thighs clenched tightly against him. He wanted to flip her over and lick every part of her its tongue could reach. Their destination was familiar, at least to him. She had asked for a ride through the forests, and he knew just where she would absolutely love.The one thing he most enjoyed about spending time with Kylie, was how much she lov
*** That was just the trigger Roy needed. His feet led him forward at a speedy pace, he was a bit clumsy with his movement, as he took off the pants he had only slipped on moments ago. Kylie found some humor in his movement and giggled adorably. The sound was enough to have Roy smiling like a teenage boy. He finally got the pants off, and dived right into the water, disappearing beneath it. Kylie laughed, as she could just barely see his hulking form swimming around her. "Roy, stop playing." she called out. He suddenly emerged out of the water and grabbed her by the waist, causing a yelp to tear out of her throat, and then rapturous laughter that was abruptly cut off, when he pressed his lips against hers. Kylie wrapped her arms around his strong neck, and returned his kiss with an equal fervor, his tongue snaked out to seek access into he
The energy was different. It was in the tiny giggles, the abashed looks they shared, the longing in his eyes, the way she would bite her lips when she noticed him staring and look away…the change in her scent. Caleb studied Roy and Kylie, for what would seem, an unhealthy amount of time. Perhaps, it was his own way of living through his friend; he was genuinely happy for the solidifying of Roy’s relationship with Kylie, of the three ladies, he was certain Roy had gotten the most malleable, and all the latest events showed, was that he had been right.He wondered if anyone else noticed. “Did you two mate?” Rinaldi blurted out suddenly, cutting off Cassandra, who had only began to mention to Kylie how much she was glowing. The ensuing silence in the room, was thick with unspoken words, as everyone turned to Rinaldi first, and then, to Kylie, before Roy. Kylie blushed heavily, as
The last time she had been within the walls of the Duncan Compound, their Alpha had been distraught, frazzled and desperate. In this moment, he was none of the three emotions she had most felt coming off him, that day she found him hovering over a smaller woman, his usually completed self, a horrible mess. Still, she could sense how troubled he was, his eyes betrayed his worry. Magnolia had expected this; for anyone to go through the things she had seen in Cassandra's mind, would mean they were bound to be greatly disturbed by it. At the time she cared for her though, her sole concern had been to heal the body. Normally, the fact that she was now a werewolf would have allowed her mind heal more easily, werewolves had formidable minds, the likes of which humans couldn't possess. However, the manner of her turning had ensured that such would not necessarily remain true for Cassandra's wolf. Magnolia listened with rapt attention, as Caleb narra
She hadn’t slept a wink. It was almost impossible to close her eyes the entire night, even less find any sort of sleep. She supposed it was all due to the excitement from what was to come. Cassandra stared back at her reflection in the bathroom, after she had had a very long bath. Possibilities swirled in her head endlessly, and the more she thought about what was to come, the more agitated and apprehensive she grew. It was o much easier to agree to something when the idea first came to you, but the longer you spent, thinking about it, the more negative scenarios you were able to build up. She was determined to not let those negative thoughts veer her away from what was most important though. She was also confident in the people she loved, that no matter the outcome, they would help her through it, as they had the last few months. She knew she could never be totally normal, not anymore, but she was determined to ac
