“More importantly, even if I did treat you badly, why would you just accept it?” I asked.“If you’d let me talk, I could maybe answer some of these questions,” Shane teased. I pouted and his eyes warmed. “I don’t expect anything. I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. I’m lucky just to have you. This time I get to spend with you? I don’t think you know how much they mean to me. You’re a dream, Adea. Actually having you, tasting you, feeling you beneath me is more than I deserve. Don’t mistake this for me being selfless, I’m the most selfish man you’ll ever meet. I want everything you have to give me, I want your submission, your body, your soul. I’ll take it all. I’ll take everything you have to give and when there’s nothing left, I’ll take your life. It’s mine. Everything you are is mine. When you no longer want me, it’ll be too late. You’re mine, Princess.”He was sitting up now and I straddled him while he stared down at me. “You’re not going anywhere. Even if you beg me,
My cheeks hurt from smiling so hard and my face was warm from the kisses Shane swiped from me while I bounced around on one foot as I tried to get my foot into my jeans. True to his word, my best friend sat at the table with his mate until the two of us were dressed and ready to go. I wore jeans and a t-shirt, while Shane looked drop dead gorgeous in loose shorts and a shirt with ripped sleeves. His arms had my mouth watering and I could see his stomach muscles peeking out from his shirt when he moved.You’re dressed like a whore.Your whore and you love it.You’re too handsome. I need to lock you up and keep you inside.You can lock me up whenever you want to, Princess.Ugh.Gabe jumped to his feet and walked toward the door. Odis stood up to follow. “Where are we going?” I asked.“Well, Oh here tells me there’s a nearby cafe that’s popular. Is that find with you alpha?” Gabe asked, his gaze darting to Shane.“I don’t care where we go. Up until a few minutes ago, me and mine were goi
“Bitch, no!”“Yes!” He gasped.“The floor?!” I shrieked.“You heard me! He had me on the floor,” Gabe giggled. His cheeks had gone from pink to red.“Oh my Goddess, but you guys went to the bed after?” I asked.“No. Let’s not pretend now. We both know I like it dirty,” he giggled. “But he told me to lift my legs and hold them open for him,” he gushed. “As soon as the words left his mouth, my ass was sat. One minute I’m arguing with him and the next I’m like, daddy, say less.” My jaw dropped and the car swerved as Odis almost drove us off the road.“Careful,” Shane chuckled from the front passengers seat. “My mate just became mine. I don’t want to die today.”“Apologies, Alp-Shane,” Odis said. My eyebrows flew into my hairline. I wondered if he almost called Shane Alpha out of habit, or if his wolf recognized Shane as an alpha. I shook the thought from my mind and turned back to Gabe.“Yes, I also just found my mate and would like many more nights like last night,” Gabe teased his mate
The four of us walk across the street. There’s a cute little dining area outside, the building is a rustic off-white color, and long green branches are stretching along with the building. The shop has ceiling to floor windows and the door is a cute salmon color with a black quarter note on the front. Shane opens the door and when we all walk through the door, there’s a cute back splash that resembles grass. It looks so real my fingers twitch and I take a step closer.There’s a neon sign that says ‘Do what makes you happy’. I plan on doing just that. I know this has to be a popular spot for selfies. I will get a group picture here before we leave. I also want one of me and Shane. My cheeks warm at the thought of having my first couple picture with him. It’s a quaint little shop with white booths on the left and an open kitchen separated by a long counter. I walk up to the counter and the waitress behind the counter greets me.“Good morning! What can I get you?” She asked cheerfully.“W
My eyes went wide and Gabe’s jaw dropped as we both turned to stare at Shane. His dark eyes were locked on Odis’ blue ones. Tension filled the air and I cleared my throat.“They just found each other yesterday. I doubt they’ve had time to discuss what they’re going to do, or even think about it yet,” I said. I leaned close and grabbed him by the ear when he didn’t lower himself. I pulled him down so I could whisper in his ear. “What’s going on with you? Be nice,” I hissed.“Sorry. I’ve always known what I’ve wanted, so I just expected you to too,” Shane said gruffly.“I want Gabe and that isn’t going to change. I haven’t put much thought into it. I only just found him yesterday. I won’t be letting go of him. I know what I want, but I think I need to talk with him about what he wants and I’m sure he&r
The six of us sitting together around a table covered in food felt like we were a pack of our own. I liked it, I liked it a lot. The sound of cutlery on plates, chewing and an awkward silence filled the space.“I’m the only one here that hasn’t found their mate yet,” Mavy murmured.“I’m here too, you know?” Nikki interjected. She shook her head and Gabe’s eyes darted between the two girls. This was probably the closest the two had ever been to fighting.“You know what I mean. I just want to find my person. You’re human, so you don’t have to think too much about finding the person who was created for you. What if he isn’t there?” Mavy whined.“It’s way too early for you to be throwing a fit and you know I don’t put up with that shit. We’re here to have fun and that’s what we’re
Shane’s words bounced around in my head. Odis left just before we finished eating and Gabe sighed heavily. A smile played on my lips as I watched my best friend miss his mate that hadn’t been gone more than ten minutes. Shane draped his arm on the back of the booth behind me. His fingers squeezed my shoulder and I was comforted by his need to touch me. I knew deep down that whatever had happened between Nikki and Shane was platonic and I would blame it on the wolf within me.I don’t appreciate that, Adea.I don’t know what you mean, Korra.I am not to blame for your… behavior.So you heard that?I did, Adea.Are you telling me you don’t want to pee on Shane?No, I don’t mark my territory that way. I—I don’t want to know, Korra.Adea. We’ve marked him already.So you don’t want to howl to the moon and let everyone know he’s yours?…That’s what I thought.“As fun as this has been, I don’t want to third wheel in town. I’m going to head back to the packhouse,” Gabe said.“I’d say you’ll
Butterfly wings fluttered against the inner walls of my stomach and my heart flip-flopped in my chest as I let Shane lead me down the sidewalk. My body warmed whenever he called me Princess and I felt like putty. I didn’t know where we were going but I’d followed him wherever he went. He pointed at every store we passed and asked me if I was interested in going inside. I wasn’t paying attention to anything else.The only thing I saw was his large broad shoulders and visions of my legs on both sides of his head had me warm for another reason. His large hand tightened around mine and all I could thing of was how those fingers had been inside of me. He pulled on my hand and I raised my eyes to his and stared at his lips as they moved.I swallowed and bit into my bottom lip as I remembered watching him suck my—I was pulled from my thoughts as his voice called out to me. I blinked and mentally shook my head. I hadn’t been listening to a single word he’d been saying. This man had me practic
