I had it bad and it was too late to do anything about it. I couldn’t keep the goofy smile from my face as I moved my hand and he released it. I brought it up to his hair and ran my fingers through the messy curls. He dropped his hand and I smiled as I continued touching him. His chest rumbled beneath me and his wet tongue slid across the curve of my breast. I dropped my hand and lifted off of him.“Definitely not,” I laughed.“I have no idea what you mean,” Shane said.“Oh, yes you do. Have you forgotten that last night was my first time? We did it again before bed too! My poor body needs time to heal. Look at me!” I said.“I am looking at you and you’ve never looked more beautiful than you do right now,” Shane murmured.His arms wrapped around me and goosebumps broke out as his hands slid down my back. He gave me an innocent look, his lips downturn as he tried not to smile as his hands gripped my naked ass cheeks. He knew exactly what he was doing, Goddess, he was good. I shook my he
Slowly turning towards the door, I fixed my gaze on the door and waited to hear if someone would call out. It would simply die if it was Mavy and she found me in bed with her brother. This was definitely more than I said was going on between me and Shane, but I was praying to the Goddess that she was in bed, hung over from the night before. I swallowed the lump in my throat. If not Mavy, it could be his parents. I jumped what felt like a foot in the air when the person banged on the door again. Warmth crept along my breast and my chin dipped as my gaze lowered to a large hand wrapped around my breast. My eyes darted to Shane and he had the audacity to wriggle his eyebrows at me. This guy.Are you serious, right now?Mm.. I thought you were joking.No, I was serious. There’s someone at your door! We’re moments away from getting caught in bed together and you’re more interested in boobs?Not just any boobs, your boobs.See who’s at the door!Shane shrugged his shoulders and lifted his h
After a hurried argument about how Shane couldn’t come on our road trip, I was already fully dressed in denim shorts, a long sleeved white v-neck and a hoodie to hide my neck and bruises. I was ready to meet Gabe five minutes ago, but I couldn’t get passed my massive mate. He wore dark gray sweatpants and a loose shirt that did very little to hide his muscles. He stood in front of me, blocking the door. Gabe would want the details, every last detail about what happened last night and how I ended up in Shane’s bed. I’d have to tell him about the mark too! We’d squeal and I’d probably get a few bruises from his accidental slapping of my arm while he bounced excitedly in his seat. At least that’s what was supposed to happen. How are we supposed to gossip and catch up if Shane rides along with us? I mean, I know Gabe probably wouldn’t care but I did not want to think about explaining what my first, second and third time having sex was like in front of my… mate. I also didn’t want to whine
The grounds were empty when we finally left, Gabe’s 1970 Dodge Challenger sped out of the driveway. I stared into the mirror and watched as the packhouse grew smaller and smaller. I’d wondered if we would bump into Alpha Joshua before he left but was happy when Gabe said they’d already left. It was scorching outside but with the windows down and the speed in which my bestie drove, the wind was cool against my face. My hair flew around wildly. This was everything I thought it would be.“Why aren’t you sitting back here with me?” Shane grumbled. I ignored him. I didn’t sit in the back with him on purpose. With how long this drive would take, I knew he wouldn’t be able to keep his hands off of me. The last thing I wanted was to have a spicy moment in the back seat while my best friend drove.My book slid on the seat between us and I grabbed it before it could fall. Gabe had brought my favorite book about this reverse harem of were-bears. He gave me the ‘don’t even think about it’ look be
Between dress shopping, getting attacked by alpha-holes, Shane claiming my virginity, and taking me back to his room I hadn’t had the chance to think about this stranger who I was supposed to be waiting and hoping for. Sure, I’ve thought about him, but I’ve never thought that I wanted to seek him out or sit pretty until he finds me. Shane chose me and I chose him. That’s the kind of love I want, that’s the kind of partner I want to be with. Someone who I choose, not who is chosen for me. Now that I’ve marked him and have been marked, you would think that I would panic at the idea of meeting my Goddess-chosen mate, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. I don’t feel anything about him.I don’t care about finding him.“What about him? I’ve made my choice and I don’t regret it. I choose Shane,” I said firmly.“And I’m happy that you had a choice sis. I only want what’s best for you, you know that right?” Gabe asked seriously. I turned and looked at his side profile.“Yes,” I smiled
After the shock of Gabe finding his mate wore off and a lot of dry humping later, Shane and I followed the two men as we walked towards the packhouse. I stared a hole into their hands as Odis gripped Gabe’s wrist, leading him and us forward. The man stopped as soon as we walked through the archway and into the packhouse. Turning towards us, Gabe stopped at his side and he pulled at the tie to loosen it from around his neck.“I apologize for my behavior, I wasn’t expecting to find my mate today. Let me start off by introducing myself. My name is Odis and I’m the Beta of The Desert Moon pack. Welcome to our humble home,” Odis’ mate said in a professional tone.I’d thought he could been the Alpha when I first saw him. He’s handsome, his eyes are kind even though his features are hard, and his suit is pulled taunt over his muscles. He looks so put together now and I couldn’t help but giggle as the memory of him looking anything but just a few minutes ago when he had Gabe by the throat aga
The doors closed and Odis pressed the button with the number four. It lit up and the elevator moved. We stood in awkward silence for what felt like forever. Gabe was usually the one who would break the silence but I’m sure he had a lot on his mind after meeting that woman downstairs.“I originally had your room on the second floor but you’ll be on the fourth floor with me. The fourth floor is for Betas and Gammas but I think my mate would prefer it if you were close,” Odis said gruffly.“That’s.. thoughtful of you. Thank you,” I said cautiously as I glanced at Gabe.“Of course. The Alpha stays on the fifth floor, we have other alphas staying there with their Luna’s, so please try to avoid going up there. He doesn’t take rule-breaking lightly. We have the Alpha’s children placed on the third floor,” Odis said as the elevator stopped and a chime was followed by the doors opening.Odis stepped off first, then Gabe, followed by me and Shane. He pulls the cards from earlier out from beneat
My mate was a very large man, and even though he hadn’t taken over for his father yet, he was an alpha of alphas. He was going to be a formidable foe for any pack that wasn’t aligned with him. I felt very much like the prey as he caught me, I knew I was doomed as soon as he wrapped his arms around me, or maybe I never really had a chance. He carried me over to the sink and placed me on the counters.“Did you think you were going to get away?” Shane asked. There was a rumble to his voice that I felt all the way down in my center as he stood between my legs. His hands rested on both sides of the counter as he leaned against me. I rested my hands on his chest and fought the urge to squeeze the muscle that rippled beneath my fingers.“Yes, I actually did,” I whispered.“Mm, that was never going to happen,” Shane hummed.“I see that now,” I murmured breathlessly.“Good,” Shane said against my hair. I turned my head slightly and offered my neck to him. He pulled my hoodie down and nuzzled m
