Alpha Zayne Steele
Alpha Dartwood was in a bind and hoped and prayed to the Divine Moon Goddess that Alpha Steele could help him out of this bind, and he came prepared with a proposal.
Upon the door opening, Alpha Dartwood shot up and stood facing the door, eagerly looking on. Hoping it was the Alpha this time.
The longer he was in here, his nerves ate him alive. He was a proud man, and asking for help was not his strong suit. But desperate times call for desperate measures.
To his dismay, it was not the Alpha but a handsome young gentleman in his stead. And who might this young man be? He curiously eyed the young man.
Soon another young man came in behind him. OK, still not the Alpha. Where the hell was the Alpha, and who were these two handsome young devils?
His mind suddenly perks up with possibilities. Maybe his daughter won't have to marry the Alpha after all. Perhaps one of these was his son?
His eyes widened in wonder, but it did not matter to him in the end. Once he got what he wanted, he did not care who his daughter would have to marry.
*******************************************************Third Person POV.
"Good afternoon, Alpha Dartwood," Mekhi acknowledged and gave a quick nod, and Alpha Dartwood nodded swiftly.
Mekhi glanced at the wife, "Mrs. Dartwood," he nodded politely, and did the same with, "Young Dartwood."
Mekhi greeted everyone, as Zayne made his way to his chair behind his big black mahogany desk.
Soon Mekhi grabbed a seat away from Zayne to his right. He watches over the trio.
"Good Evening Alpha Dartwood. How can I be of assistance today?" Zayne casually asks one eyebrow, lifting in question.
Mr. Dartwood needed to be sure of whom he was speaking with. His head rares back, and he asks like someone had royally offended him, "I ask to speak with the Alpha of this pack, and they send me you?"
"I need to speak with Alpha Steele," Alpha Dartwood demanded, not that he was in any position to order things, but he was tired of Alphas treating him less than their equal.
"This is Alpha Zayne Steele, the Alpha of Ragnuff Crescent Moon Community. He took over from his father over three years ago. You will speak with respect!" Mekhi sets the record straight with a sweep of a hand, and his face is set in stone before even Zayne can utter a word.
The trio's eyes immediately snap to Zayne sitting comfortably laid back in his thick black leather chair.
One held surprise that immediately turned to satisfaction, even desire, another pair stared blankly as the wheels turned in their heads, and the other was just pleased.
Zayne's face, on the other hand, was set in a mask of indifference. The space between his eyebrows was formed in a distinctive frown as he casually glanced at the trio.
His eyes did linger a second longer on the youngest of the trio. However, he gave nothing away. His frown and indifference were set in concrete.
She was a beautiful blonde with long flowing hair and blue eyes, the cliche blonde type look that many strive to achieve, she has mastered.
Rose pink lips, a small button nose, and a diamond-shaped face.
His frown deepens after he looks back at Alpha Dartwood. However, Zayne's thoughts were still with the blonde-haired beauty as he wondered and settled on 'she must be one of those spoiled, fake types.'
And just like that, he dismissed her.
Focused now on Alpha Dartwood, he was not particularly interested in what he had to say. Zayne knew this Alpha, he was a scum, and Zayne had called Alpha Thornton selfish, but this f**ker right here won the prize fair and square.
He only looks out for himself, not even his pack, and an Alpha like that is the lowest of the lowest in Zayne's eyes.
"Oh, well, I see, I see," Alpha Dartwood's hand darts up, and he furiously dabs at his forehead."
"Pardon me, Alpha Zayne." He made a quick dip of his head as if bowing.
"Please forgive my insolence and allow me to introduce my lovely wife, Lenora, and my BEAUTIFUL daughter Leandra." Alpha Dartwood ends with a flourish.
Alpha Zayne simply nodded at the women and urged Alpha Dartwood, "state your business, I have other matters to attend to, and you did show up unannounced."
"Yes, straight to the point, I like that." Alpha Dartwood perks up to lay out his proposal.
Zayne simply lifts an eyebrow as Mekhi watches intently at what is happening before him. Taking in Alpha Dartwood's every move, nervous tick, even the beat of his heart.
Paying close attention, as was Zayne.
"Ok, so I am seeking protection for my family and me." He paused briefly and looked at Zayne.
Zayne simply flicks two fingers at him to continue.
"A few weeks ago, one of my warriors realized our phones had been tapped. We also have heard of the attacks on other wolf communities that have taken place. It was slow at first. However, it has ramped up drastically."
"Now," he looks pointedly at Zayne, at which Zayne tilts his chin. "I am inclined to believe that my community is on their radar, and it is only a matter of time before they attack. I am here today seeking refuge until the storms die down."
Alpha Zayne could not believe what he heard, even though he knew this man was selfish. Sometimes people tend to exaggerate a story and even add to it.
Hence, by the time the story gets around, it is either watered down or, for the most part, flourished and bedazzled to draw one in.
In this case, they hit the nail on the head. There was no exaggeration.
This Alpha was here for himself only until the attack happened in his community and was behind him. Then he plans to return, not getting caught in the crossfire.
He would be here safe while his people are left out to hang.
So what about his people now? Don't they need to be kept safe? How can he be so callus in his care for his own people?
"And what is in this for me?" Was all Zayne asked, so he could simply refuse and be done with this fool.
Alpha Dartwood claps his hands, "ahh, yes, what's in it for you? Well, Alpha Zayne, you would be pleased to know that I am prepared to offer you my daughter's hand in marriage."
"Not interested!" He looked Alpha Dartwood square in the eyes, who was currently beginning to regret his earlier joy at the fact that he was dealing with the younger Alpha and not his father.
Maybe his father would have jumped at the opportunity to wed a gorgeous young she-wolf like his daughter.
"Is there anything else I can help you with?" Alpha Zayne asks, ready to have them escorted out.
Alpha Dartwood was in a jam! He hastily asks, "Please, may I ask then what might entice you to let us stay for a few weeks tops?"
Ok, maybe Alpha Zayne could use this to his advantage. Alpha Dartwood did say that their phones were tapped, and if so, he wanted to trace where the tap was coming from.
For that Intel, they are welcome to stay one month.
However, he would also have to make arrangements for his pack members' safety. Not only him. We can certainly work out the logistics for that in the next few days.
Alpha Zayne had leaned back on his chair, tilted his chin up as he rubbed it, his elbow propped on the arm of the chair as he considered it.
Alpha Dartwood looks on eagerly, anticipating an answer. He was out of options, and to say he was hopeless was an understatement. All he was concerned about was his family.
Things were getting dire for the werewolf communities at this time, and he was not sorry he was selfish in only thinking of himself and his family because, pretty soon, there may not be any more werewolf communities left at this rate.
Why would he try to salvage that community and help his people when it was a lost cause? As far as he was concerned, it was all wolves for themselves.
Forty-Eight Hours Earlier Alpha Zayne Steele's POV. "You are 15 minutes out," the voice on the com says. Our guy back at home base. I tried my best to stay entirely focused as I didn't get much sleep, staying up well into the night on the phone to no avail. It was tough getting these Alphas from neighboring communities on board to join forces. I had spent hours on the phone pleading my case. However, all the other Alphas seemed to be taking the same stance as Alpha Thornton. As far as they were concerned, there seemed to be no trouble at their doorstep, and as such, they would not get involved in my mess, they said. My mess, I chuckled bitterly. At one call, he had gotten so angry he remembered yelling into the phone, making it clear to them, don’t come running to him when it reaches your doorstep. Because for the life of Alpha Zayne, this threat was on all wolves, why would they not want to get ahead of this? What were they waiting for? When they were under attack? Bottom lin
Unknown POV. Hours earlier..... Damn it, who the f**k can be calling at this hour? I cursed under my breath, not wanting to disturb number ten next to me. I smirk. Glancing at her, oh yes, she was a ten indeed. I lick my lips as I recall our earlier dalliances. Picking up my phone, I see that it's four fifty am. I swipe, seeing it's Roger, and answer, "What!!" "Sir, outpost number one hundred and forty-five has gone dark, and we lost contact about two hours ago." "F**k, F**k, F**k, it's this f**king Alpha f**king mutt, I am sure of it, and he is really starting to PISS me the F**K OFF," I shouted. Number ten stirred, "sorry babe, everything is alright. Go back to bed," I cooed, patting her softly. Then I got up and went downstairs to my office. "Get a team down there now and find out what happened. If anything is missing, I want to know everything and scrub that place top to bottom. Do NOT leave a trace of evidence that we were even there." "Yes, boss." I end the call. Damn i
Aubrianne Ivanov POV I even saw the grocery store owner where I worked on a separate occasion. Though with him, I did not feel the dread I felt with my English teacher. He and I even shared a few words, and he even paid for a lap dance when he asked me if this is where I work now, and I told him yes! The money was better. "Ha," I laughed to myself. What an experience both encounters were. Now, Jada and I met when, in walked Jada one night with two other girls, Kylynn and Ena. They were all glitter and glamour in the highest pairs of heels I had ever seen. Each, in their pretty little outfits, Jada in her sexy leopard print dress reaching just below her butt cheeks, her toned sexy legs on full display, her beach blonde hair pulled up in a messy bun, her face done to perfection, her skin glowing. And her beautiful grey eyes stared at me as she whispered something to who I knew now as Kylynn. They laughed lightly, then Jada went up to the counter as it was their turn to cash out the
Aubrianne Ivanov POV **WARNING** Slight sexy times As time passed and got ever so close to me having to go out there, Jada and I were settling into a light conversation when suddenly, out of nowhere… "Girrrlll, oh my God!" Jada pauses, furrows her eyebrows, squinting her eyes when one of her hands reaches up to touch her forehead. She grimaces, taking a quick intake of breath. "Geez," she begins again wide-eyed, "I almost forgot what I came here to tell you in the first place." I glanced at her through the mirror as she went on... "Ron is here and has not moved from that spot in front of the stage. He is just sitting there dead center, unmoving". I did not miss how her voice rose at dead center and dragged out the word unmoving to emphasize. I briefly paused, hand midair with puff secured by my fingers. I arch a brow as this is not news, coaxing Jada to elaborate. Looking a bit uneasy, she said, "he seems a bit off." Furrowing my brows, "what do you mean off?" Jada looks like
Aubrianne Ivanov POV **WARNING** Slight sexy times On stage, I continued a buildup of torturous teasing to lead up to the big finale. Showing off my skill on the pole, I stretched my hand, aimed higher up the stripper pole, and pulled myself up the pole again. My legs now extend downwards like I am almost standing in the air. However, I make it look effortless, but believe me, it is not. I am holding myself up with my hands, my body flexing sexily, walking in the air, and striking a few poses. I have acquired a newfound respect for dancers. It took me months to perfect my moves and skills on the stripper pole. When I started, I never even dared to venture up on the Stripper pole as I had no upper body strength and did not know where or how to begin. I would stay on the ground and give lap dances, and the pole tricks came six months later, after hours and hours of practice on a nightly basis. Moving on in my routine, I expand on my position, back now touching the pole, holding mys
**WARNING** - Triggering Content Aubrianne Ivanov After my performance on stage and covering every corner—believe me when I say I left my mark. I took the time to do a once over on the stage, ensuring I'd picked up every dollar. I couldn't afford to leave a dollar behind. I worked very hard to save for my next move, and I will be damned if I let even one dollar slip away. I need every penny to start a new life in a new place away from the people close to me. Nevertheless, I smile, feeling accomplished as I set a goal for tonight. I am not one hundred percent sure of the exact amount made, but my 'guesstimation' said it was a killing. I then headed towards the dressing room to freshen up and get ready for the after-party, "heyyyyyyyy" I shouted, then did a little hop and skip, "let's get ready to partyyyyyy!" I called to no one in particular. I am so pumped and hyped up for what's to come next.....in a few days. So you know what? I am going to enjoy the hell out of this get-toge
**WARNING** - Triggering ContentAubrianne Ivanov"So sweet!" he whispered, followed by a sound as if it was the best tasting thing he ever had the pleasure of tasting in his life. All while looking at me with those lust-filled eyes. Then suddenly, his hand reaches up to stroke my cheek so softly, and I flinch slightly.And now, he dared to look hurt at my reaction to his tender gesture. Dropping his hand, he looked down, shook his head as if in an attempt to clear it, and he was right back at it saying, "no, no, no, NO, this is not happening, this cannot be happening," as if remembering I was leaving all over again.Almost like he is talking to himself AGAIN, he rambles on.On shaky legs, I stood there, all these questions running through my mind. How am I getting out of this? Is he this upset that I am leaving? Or was he upset that I was leaving before he got with me? What could have possibly sent him over the edge like this?My body heats up as anger surges through me at my last th
***WARNING*** Triggering Content Aubrianne Ivanov He swiftly adjusted to properly secure my hands above my head now with one hand while the other moved down to start his frenzied groping. He gripped my neck, parted his lips, and his tongue darted out and licked my face. He then groped my boobs, becoming hasty in his movements. He moaned, then went on about so long, he waited patiently for this, and I was not going to deprive him of what was his. This man has some nerve. I felt disgusted and screamed in my mind, 'like what in the f**king hell Aubri? Get your ass up, girl!' Yes, you have wanted this. Yes, you have fantasized about it, feeling Ron inside of you and imagining what it would feel like. Yes, you wished you could have had your night with Ron, but not like this. He was busy fiddling with his belt buckle, and I used the opportunity to look around, thinking of what to do, and recalled we were on the couch, so if I could just... Not overthinking it, I pushed us over to l
