From Rejection to Desire 14
Colin’s POVHesitating with my hand against the office door, I steel myself for Tate’s temper.He was always a moody guy, but it got worse after he rejected Kit, although he would never admit it.Then is got a thousand times worse when Sarah left and he refused to be with another girl after her.Jody and I have said multiple times over the last year that he needs to get laid, but now I worry that if he does, it will be with the one woman that I don’t want him to be with.My new girlfriend. Who just happens to be the mate that he rejected.As much as I love Tate like a brother, and respect him as my Alpha, I don’t want to give up Kit to him.He didn’t treat her right.She deserves better.I would never make her feel the way that he did.I want to keep her safe. Comfortable.Satisfied.Woa there…can’t be thinking about that before I step into the office with my Alpha. Don’t want him hearing those thoughts.Pushing the door open, I see that Jody has beat me here.He is perched on Tate’s

Kit’s POVColin and I hold hands to the training center, even as we walk through the door, I don’t let his hand go when he holds it open for me.When he follows me inside, he wraps the arm still holding my hand around my neck, pulling me close as he kisses the top of my head.A tiny bubble of rage seems to burst in my chest, and I grimace as I glance to the front of the room, catching Alpha Tate’s stare.I hate that I can feel him.Sense him.Share his emotions.It doesn’t matter if he is still kind of my mate.He is half the man that Colin is.Placing my hand on Colin’s chest, I lift onto my toes and tug on his shirt to get his attention.He looks down, grins, and lowers his head to give me a quick kiss.Another bubble pops.This one has pain in it.Screw him.Colin and I take the same mat as last time, Jody and Cami already beating us there and even more entwined with each other than Colin and I are.Alpha Tate clears his throat and I swear their lips make that sucking sound of two

Kit’s POV Frowning at my reflection, I blink as I angle my face to study the mascara that I just applied. Cami is the one who is good at make-up. Not me. Although, I think I did a pretty good job with it this time. I smile as I swipe some neutral lipstick on that makes my lips just a hint pinker. As much as I wanted to do it with Colin all day, and not just to spite Alpha Tate, which I admit, was a forethought on my mind, he insisted that we waited. I roll my eyes at my reflection. Fine. We’ll make it special or whatever. Running my fingers through my painstakingly curled hair, I wonder what he means by special. Sex is just sex. It’s just something that you need to do. The only way it can be ‘special’ is probably with your mate. I guess. Shrugging, I check my reflection one more time before stepping out of the bathroom and into my bedroom, trying not to make my new high heels clink too loudly against the floor. Smoothing my dress, I grab a pair of earrings from the dresse

Kit’s POV“Have I mentioned to you how happy I am that your sister mated to Jody and that you came back with her?”Colin is laying on his back on the blanket, the moonlight reflecting off his bare skin.My head is resting on his chest, my fingers splayed beside it, my leg hiked over his waist with his hand resting on my hip, the other massaging my neck.I could stay like this forever.He makes me feel safe. Wanted.And extremely satisfied.Snuggling closer against him, he gives me a tight squeeze.When he does, my stomach gives a low growl.Um…that’s embarrassing.Colin lifts his head to look at me.“Time to eat?”My stomach rumbles again in response and I bury my face against him.Guess I forgot to eat today.It’s been such a whirlwind since I arrived, I haven’t really been eating more than a bite here or there.“I could eat.”Colin grins as he sets up and reaches behind him for the basket.“Me too. You’ve got me working up quite the appetite.”He winks at me, and I flush in response

Kit’s POV“Good morning, beautiful.”With a small groan, I stretch and snuggle against Colin.I have never woken up with a man in my bed before.It’s nice.Colin touches my nose with his finger and then places his hand under his head.“Ready for training?”I make a gagging face and pull the blanket over my head.Colin laughs and tugs it back down.Sticking my tongue out at him, I bury my face against his bicep.“Can’t we skip it? Stay here?”I walk my fingers suggestively down his torso.Colin sighs dramatically and grabs my hand, entwining his fingers with mine.“I wish. I really really do. But I don’t think Alpha Tate would like that very much.”“Who cares?”I wiggle my body against his and he gives a little groan of regret before pulling his arm away and rolling onto his side.He looks seriously at me.“I do, and you should too. You’re staying now, remember. You’ll become a part of the pack again and you have to listen to your Alpha.”I wrinkle my nose and prop up on my elbow.“But

Kit’s POVLetting out a groan of frustration, I duck out of Alpha Tate’s reach and throw up my arm to block his kick, wincing as it makes contact with my elbow.“Keep your arms up!”“I am!”I practically spit back at him, raising my sore arms higher and leaning backwards to avoid another punch, then taking one more step back…and slipping in a pool of my own sweat, falling hard on my ass against the mat.With another low groan, I struggle onto my knees, my palms flat on the mat in front of me.I don’t want to get back up.Everything hurts and I am exhausted. I lower my forehead onto the mat and close my eyes.“Can we please stop now? I physically don’t think I can even stand up again.”My voice sounds muffled and wobbly as I refuse to look at Alpha Tate, who hasn’t even broken a sweat since we started all those hours ago.And once again, everyone else is long gone.“We can stop.”I look up in surprise.Alpha Tate holds out his hand, which I eye suspiciously before I slap my own into it

Kit’s POV After a few minutes, I stagger up from the floor, wincing at my sore thighs. If Alpha Tate hasn’t come banging on the door by now, he probably won’t come at all. Which I am so glad about. Shuffling over to my bed, I snatch my phone from the nightstand and quickly type out a text to Colin. Miss you. How’s it going there? He must be there by now. He said it wasn’t too far away and Alpha Tate and I were training for hours. Colin’s reply is fast. Miss you more. It’s extremely dull here. Wish you could have come with me. We could have found a way to make the time here a lot more interesting. He ends the text with a winking emoji, and I grin at it. We’ll just have to make it interesting when you get back. Deal! I smile wider as I read his response, then lower my phone and feel the smile slide off. Damn Alpha Tate! He couldn’t just let me be. Now he’s in my head, which is probably exactly what he wanted. Tossing my phone onto the bed, I start to pace back and forth,
From Rejection to Desire 21
Alpha Tate’s POVGripping the front of my hair as I stroll through the hallway, I struggle to find the best way to describe the strange swirl of emotions coursing through me.Something that keeps happening ever since this chick came back to the pack.Not sure how I kept my cool with Kit back there.Keeping calm hasn’t exactly been a strong suit of mine in the past.And she is not the easiest to keep calm around, she’s got quite a temper herself and doesn’t mind using it against me, that’s for sure.Can’t believe she threw a shoe at me.Who throws shoes at someone? Let alone their Alpha.“Hey, what are you grinning about?”Turning my expression into a scowl, I glare at Peter, whose own grin instantly slides away.“What have you heard?”“Nothing. They didn’t find anyone yet. Picked up on a scent around the perimeter, but nothing crossed into the territory. Could just be wandering rogues.”Scratching my jawline, I stare past Peter at the wall behind him, an uneasy feeling creeping in.Ar
