I stood at the corner of my block, gazing down the street at the entrance gate to my home.
Somehow the stranger knew where I lived. I couldn't move, my feet were frozen in place, part of me needed to move, needed to be closer to this man, the other part of me--the smarter part--was screaming at me to turn and run. Why was he following me? I had no idea what he wanted from me, but standing frozen like I was wasn't going to get me any answers. Finally, I took a deep breath, clutching the straps to my backpack as I made my way towards the stranger. The confusing emotions only grew that much stronger the closer I got to him. Finally, I reached the man and he turned to me, a look of impatience and annoyance on his face.
He's annoyed at me...?
What the hell!
"Can I help you?" I seethed, trying to reign my emotions, ignoring every part that screamed at me to not raise my voice, to show respect to this stranger.
Who was he?
Why did he make me feel this way?
I had so many questions and yet, I had zero idea on how to ask any of this. His gaze was once again on mine and he made a note to look me over, brazenly "examining" my body as if he had the right. I hated how warm my body suddenly felt, my entire body seeming to burn with a fever just from his very gaze.
What would his touch do to me?
I shook my head at that thought. What was wrong with me? I'd never felt much interest in boys. I always worried what was wrong with me, wondered if I was truly broken. Well, that was no longer the case obviously. Every single fiber of my being had decided to wake up today apparently and that included arousal and sexual interest, apparently.
Why today?
Yes, it was my eighteenth birthday, but that didn't seem like such a big deal. Sure, I was technically an adult now, but why was all of this happening at once? I realized then that I'd just allowed him to look me over and he hadn't answered my question. I seethed, my irritation only growing. Between the sudden news of my father and this, I was ready to explode. This was too much.
Then let me out...
I blinked, wondering what that could mean.
I opened my mouth to re-state my question, wondering if maybe he hadn't heard me. Before I had a chance to say anything, he was suddenly pressed against me, my back pushed against the cold brick of the gateway to my house. I gasped, every place that his body touched was suddenly blazing hot, feeling like I was on fire. The heat and intensity caused me to let out a soft whimper and I flushed.
Did that sound really come out of me?
His face moved to the column of my throat, his nose pressing against my skin and I heard a sharp inhale. He was sniffing me? I shivered, knowing I should push him away. I needed to get out of his hold. Between this crazy public display he was causing and the fact that I didn't even know his name, this was extremely innappropriate. I shivered again, realizing with another wave of embarassment as my mind seemed to calm from his touch, it seemed it couldn't get enough of his touch.
Mine...
I paused, hearing that voice again and chewed my lip. He moved his nose from my throat, but kept his hold on me as he moved his face to mine. His eyes narrowed again as he took me in, seeming to decide something.
"W-what do you want?" I hated how weak my voice was.
"You'll know soon enough," he said, still not moving, still not looking away.
His voice...
It was deep and even though he'd barely raised his voice, it held such a commanding edge to it. I knew from that moment that this was a man who was made to lead whatever he was doing. He'd never bow down, take orders from another. I frowned, wondering what I was thinking. Why I was thinking of it like that?
"What do you mean by soon enough?" I let out a low growl, narrowing my eyes.
I was done being told what to do!
"I would think twice before speaking like that, Omega!" he snarled, leaning down and pushing harder against me.
I gasped as his knee moved between my legs and I let out a soft moan, my body seeming to melt against his touch. I whimpered, hating how out of control he made me. He leaned down, running his face against my throat and I got a sudden feeling that he was...marking me? I blinked a bit, shaking my head and working to push out of his grip. He didn't move an inch, keeping his hold on me, his knee pressed against my core and I realized in horror that I'd begun to grow wet for him.
"I can smell your arousal, Omega," he growled, continuing to rub his face against my throat as he spoke. "You're to be mine...if I accept you."
"W-what are you talking about? Why are you calling me that?" I whimpered, realizing then that he'd called me "Omega" twice.
Because that's what we are.
We?
Something snapped inside of me and I felt...changed. I flushed as I realized my body had fully submitted under this man's hold. I whimpered, the realization that I had zero control of my body dawning on me as the man moved his face closer to mine.
"I could make you cum just like this, couldn't I?" he offered me a dark grin as he said this, grinding his knee once more against me. "Would you like that, pet? Should I reward you for your submission?"
I let out a soft whimper as I shook my head, not wanting this. I flushed, realizing just how out in the open we were. Any of my neighbors could just step out and see me like this. I hated how compromised he'd made me feel. I didn't want to feel so weak, so out of control.
"Well? Speak to me," his voice seemed to change as he said those last words.
We must answer!
"I...please, not like this, not here," I flushed as I added that last part.
Not here?
No! Not any where!
"Your body is begging for it, Omega," he smirked, a cruel look in his eyes as he watched me.
"Please don't," I whimpered, flushing as my body did seem to react to his words, to his touch.
He moved to cup my cheek, his large hand warm against my skin and I almost leaned into his touch. Somehow, I had enough control to stop that much. I silently thanked whatever power I'd been granted to hold myself back even if just barely.
"I'll leave you be for now, Omega," he finally said, his voice softer than before.
Before I could blink, he'd moved from me, his hold on me lifting and I shivered, glad that I was leaning against the gate. I didn't know if my legs would've been able to hold me up on my own. I watched as he stood back, looking me over once more.
"W-wait...you didn't tell me why you called me Omega!"
"That's not for me to tell," he said before starting down the road away from me.
I wanted to chase after him, wanted to get a better answer than that. Unfortunately, my body was had still not fully recovered from his touch. My legs felt like jell-o and my skin still felt warm from the fever he'd caused. Taking a deep breath, I finally mustered enough energy to move from the gate and moved inside the safety of my front yard. I took a deep breath, heading to the front door and unlocking it before looking around once more, making sure I was alone. When I felt secure that I was alone at last, I unlocked the door and stepped inside, closing it quickly and pushing the lock back into place. I moved then, rushing up the stairs and into the comfort of my bedroom, slipping back into bed and pressing my face to my pillow. I whimpered, releasing all the tension that this morning had caused into the pillow.
Crying myself to sleep...how pathetic.
I hated just how weak he'd made me. Why couldn't I get a better grip on things? A heavy exhaustion suddenly hit me and I took a deep breath, closing my eyes and hoping that sleep would come.
I hated that the last thing I saw before I fell asleep was the stranger's eyes, my body warming at just the memory of his touch. Why couldn't I seem to control my reactions to him?
I only hoped that when I woke up things would make more sense and meeting my father wouldn't be as much of a nightmare as this morning had been.
5 years later...I woke up to the sounds of giggling and felt a smile form on my lips. Slowly slipping out of bed, I slipped on my robes and stepped out of the tent. I stopped momentarily as my eyes adjusted to the bright sun, blinking back the tears from the light change. When I was finally ready, I once more made my way around the massive tent my mates and I worked to build upon after the birth of our daughter, Saia.When I made my way to the small playground we'd built for Saia, I was greeted by the sight of my giggling daughter and all three of my mates playing. Her bright golden eyes found me almost instantly and she cried out in delight, running from her fathers and straight into my arms. I caught her easily, chuckling as I maneuvered her around my growing stomach."Careful, sweetie," I chuckled. "You've gotta be a good big sister for your baby brother or sister.""Sorry, Mommy," Saia said, gently rubbing her hand over my stomach carefully. "I'll be a good sister! I promise.""I
I woke up, a warm feeling surrounding me and I realized that I was once more in my bed. I smiled, relaxing at the feel of my mates nearby. The three were asleep and I carefully slid from their hold, moving towards the bathroom, pausing to stare into the mirror. My eyes had changed.They were now bright gold.I stared at my reflection for a moment, unsure how to feel or think at the change. Then I froze, moving my hand to my stomach, terrified that I'd lost my baby. I knew using the kind of magic I had was dangerous and I'd been prepared for anything, but now the thought that I'd lost my child was just...awful.Tears began to form in my eyes from the mere thought of the loss and before I could do anything else, a strong pair of arms wrapped around me and pressed me to an equally strong chest. I relaxed, recognizing Greyson's scent instantly and allowed myself to be pulled into his embrace."Don't ever do something stupid like that again, Dani," he said, his voice a hoarse whisper.Had h
Everything happened so quickly.Explosions.The screams.And me? I was forced into a tent surrounded by several of my fathers' guards. I paced in the tent, debating all the ways I was going to give Greyson and my boys hell when this was all through. I told them I wanted to fight, told them that this was just as much a fight for me as it was for them. I moved my hand to my stomach, concern for our child outweighing my anger at being left behind.Somehow, I knew that we would come out of this victorious. But...there was something inside me screaming to get out. To help protect my people. I knew logically that it was the right decision for me to stay back, to keep me hidden and protected with my pregnancy. Yet, something inside me continued to war against that decision.I chuckled humorously at the word choice. I was warring with myself while the true war was happening just beyond the flaps to the tent. As the acrid smell of smoke hit my nostrils, I froze, trying to see outside through th
It took three days to come up with a battle plan. Three days to find some way to tell my mates that I was pregnant. I sat in the tent alone, knowing my mates were out with the pack, planning out the details for the battle. And that's exactly what this was going to be. A battle. I couldn't wrap my head around it. A few weeks ago, I was a normal eighteen-year-old. Plans to go to college. Plans for a family. And now I was a werewolf and a witch. I still didn't know much about my abilities, aside from a few minor healing spells that I barely had any control over. I moved my hand to my stomach, imagining the life growing inside me. Part of me was terrified to know I was pregnant, the other part of me elated at the idea. While I hated the idea of this war, I knew there would be no safety for my baby if we didn't stop Eluna now. Especially knowing she had joined forces with the witches. With Taliyah. My stomach clenched at the reminder of her kiss with Greyson. Her control over him had t
One week later... I stared down in horror at the book my father had laid in front of me and my mates. I couldn't seem to comprehend what it was I was reading for a moment before, finally, Greyson reached out and gently closed the book before setting a hand on my shoulder. I took a deep breath and leaned into his touch, needing it more than ever. I still was having a hard time comprehending everything I had read, everything I just learned. Eluna had cursed my great grandparents. She had been saved by a coven of witches and when they were killed, she had targeted the pack of wolves who had been the cause of her sisters' deaths. But then she thought she'd found her mate with my great grandfather until he'd met his true mate. I shook my head, wondering if, like me, Eluna had also had two mates. What if my great grandparents had both been her mates? Instead, my great grandfather had shunned her and she'd tried to kill him. It was so much to process. Was Eluna truly a villain or had she
What would it feel like...? I shivered as Kade finished his descent to my throat, his lips gently coming to brush the juncture between my neck and shoulders. I shivered at the feeling of his lips trailing up and down my neck. I heard him inhale slowly and I whimpered as I felt myself grow aroused at just his soft touch. Kade was my only mate that I hadn't been able to be with fully and I wanted to remedy that. Both my wolf and me wanted the bond complete with all three of my mates. A moment later and I felt Kade's fangs sink into my flesh. I cried out at the sharp pain that came with the initial puncture before a warmth quickly took its place. I gasped as I felt him begin to drink, felt the pull of his mouth as he took my life essence inside him. "Kade...t-that feels amazing," I whimpered, pressing myself against his body. He groaned as he took one more drag before pulling back, his dark eyes now glowing red. I shivered at the sight and looked down, seeing that he'd grown aroused wh
