Heart of the Bayou Beasts Chapter 81
WyattThe Beast blocked me out as I tried to force my way through the chaos of energy discharging throughout our territory. My panic and distress were nothing to him as he glanced over our shoulder, towards the island, towards Bri, before he pursued his trekking around the swamp. The boys whined in protest, Beau elicited a short-lived snarl before The Beast projected his aura forcing everyone to comply. Heads down, ears slack, tails tucked. Whatever had overrode our orders in the past, was not at play here tonight. What did he know that I did not? The Beast more than liked Bri, she must not be in the danger I feared. Through The Beast's sight, I could see the waves of energy pulsing out from our island. I could feel a pull and vibration in our chest as the magnificent cadence of power ebbed, it radiated out into the farthest reaches of our domain, but the beacon of that tether tied to her, our temporary sanctuary.Finally, the monster eased his dominant aura and headed home, the earl

BeauI felt like I was in a trance, as I looked down at her. Each freckle, every relaxed line, and curve of her face. Why did I fucking care so damn much? I shouldn't care so fucking much. Where had this worry and need to ensure she was completely safe come from? She wasn't mine to worry over. With Wyatt home she was his responsibility, not mine, he had that legendary chemistry with her, though unspoken, it was obvious, even though nothing would ever come of it, because my brother was a stubborn fucking idiot, I couldn't compete with that, I didn't want to compete with that. She was just my friend, my cousin's, no, my brother’s epic, cast aside, love interest, nothing more to me but a chosen part of the family. I cherished her for that alone, she made us all better, more whole.As Wyatt wrapped his towel around his waist, I stood with her, ready to pass her back off. He just walked past me, gesturing for me to follow. Boo loyally came after as we went back to the house. He pulled back

Bri a few months laterCurled with Wyatt on a chilly early December morning, my breath matched with his, our heartbeats syncing. Too much, too close, but it felt so good to be held, to be cared for, to belong…as the weeks went on I found I couldn't control it anymore. Every touch, every stray caress branded me too deeply, they burned me with a yearning, one I hadn't been sure I would ever develop, after years of unsolicited touching, forced proximity, and the knowledge of what awaited me at the hands of those men.But these men, I undeniably trusted, were good men, men that the vengeful wraith I was, didn't deserve. It didn't stop me from wanting them. Stupid selfish whims that they were. I teetered on a precarious edge. Beau, or Wyatt, it didn't matter anymore, Wyatt was my sanctuary, a well of brute strength with a humble jaded heart, a leader that provided absolute acceptance from that heart. Yet, Beau had become my safe harbor, the one I confessed my past to, the one who listene

Bri “Oh fuck! Shit!” Beau's voice hollered, pulling me from the depths of my thoughts. His shout trailed from the dock to the side of the house. “Sug, come get this fucking bird!” He cried out, moving towards the back as I quickly dried my hands chuckling to myself. I made my way to the back porch where Wyatt was leaning up against the fence of the coop, a silent laugh shaking his shoulders as Beau shot by, chased by ‘Oh Henry,’ the now grown rooster. He was a proud bit of living poultry with bright shining feathers. However, it seemed he and Beau didn't see eye to eye. When Beau was out of earshot we found ourselves laughing out loud, at his expense. Boo sat at my feet thumping her tail as Bastain walked through the house with a large box, followed by Claude and Louis each carrying one of their own. “What's this?” Wyatt asked. “Oh, Zoey sent me some things, it's a surprise,” I said, my excitement bubbling up. “Can Y'all please go put them in the shed?” I asked. I snapped the t

Beau I heard their voices as I rounded the front of the house, having left our secret on the boat so I could smuggle it in without her knowledge. Usually, they were tucked in bed reading at this point or on the couch waiting for me, as I too loved listening to her read. It had begun to rain and the pitter patter of it on the tin roof drowned into the background as I honed my hearing to the pair.Their intensity was evident in their postures, arousal wafted off them in thick waves, scenting the air. I could not pull my eyes from them. My instincts were on full alert as Beta to my Alpha, but also in concern for her boundaries. This was a moment I'd been waiting for so long to happen between them. What would I do if my Alpha crossed a line she wasn't ready for? I watched his fingers flex as he drew her closer to him. Then he did something I never expected… he bared his neck. The razor gleamed in the light, as she took her time with each stroke, as if she had to battle herself for compo

Bri I felt like my heart was bleeding out of every crevice, between every thread holding it together. “I'm sorry my moonbeam, I have nothing more to offer you, who we are is never what we want it to be, we were both created to serve others, those are chains we cannot break, it's best not to fight for what could never be. Just know I will always hold you in my heart.” There was nothing to be said to that, he was right, and Beau? There was nothing that could be fixed. It was all doomed from the start. My stupid shattered naive heart. The rain beat down harder as I sobbed, sinking onto my knees in the middle of the island's heart. After everything I had been through, how had I allowed myself to let them burrow so deeply into me that the idea of living without them in the way I craved was like trying to breathe without air? Beau had seen, and he was angry with Wyatt, and he didn't even know why. I was already cleaving the bond they had in two. I couldn't keep on pretending, playing ho

BriGetting on Beau’s bike and moving further my eyes as the turmoil built, calling for something, someone to quell the racing thoughts, the vision of a stream running through a forest, over moss-laden rocks. “Mother moon, little sister can't help you here, such stubborn fools you all are running from your hearts.” the older woman's voice seemed transcendent in her mind. “But I can't stay,” I projected back to the woman I hadn't seen in months.“Sister, when there is a will there's a way, you have quite the handsome duo, might I say,” the old woman chuckled.“Sister?” I asked.“You will understand when the time comes Brianna Leblanc,” and then the old woman and her stream faded away.When I opened my eyes we passed a bus stop. We passed the second, I yelled.“What are you doing, Beau!” to which he simply revved the engine and shot around another vehicle. I wrapped myself tighter around him, my magic couldn't help me here short of cushioning the road rash I’d get from jumping off the

BeauWhat the actual fuck just happened? We were both staring at Bri dumbstruck as she tucked her hair into her hood and stepped out of Conner's office. Wyatt went to the bunkhouse to grab his stuff. She hefted her bag over her shoulder. I went to grab it for her.“No, you don't get to be nice after that stunt, I wanted to leave before something stupid like this happened, and now I've had to show myself, that puts all of us at risk, you better hope he keeps his mouth shut,” she snapped, folding her arms across her chest. “How does Conner know who you are?” I asked her. She gave me a brief sideways look before deciding to tell me. “The company you work for is a part of the trust my father set up for me, I have to sign the papers before I turn 22 or Lorrain will receive it,” she said, looking around.Wyatt brushed past us.“Get your bike in the back, she's not riding on that deathtrap again,” Wyatt said, not waiting for us as he prowled to his truck. This wasn't going to be a fun ride
