Tara-I had slipped out of the pack house unnoticed to go pick up Liv at Creede. It was so good to see my parents that I almost risked being a little late.“I miss you, Mom,” I said, straining to keep the tears from falling.“We miss you too, honey. I’m so glad you got Liv to come by more often,” my mom smiled, although she looked very worried.She knew I was doing this behind Mason’s back and that if he found out, I would be in trouble. After bidding goodbye, Liv hopped in the car and we headed back home. I took out some of my perfume and spritz it a few times on Liv and myself, hoping to mask the scent of home. Liv frowned at me, but didn’t complain. She was too excited about meeting the big important celebrity tonight. Apparently, she was his biggest fan. He had created some company in security or something and he was a billionaire now. We should feel very honored that he was personally overseeing the installation in our pack, or so she says.“Mom, you better dress up toni
Jayce-The minute my eyes locked with hers, it was like the world had faded away and we were the only two people in the room. Her cherry-orange scent smacked me back to reality and I forced myself to keep greeting these crazed fanatics, but dear Goddess, I could not tear my eyes away from her. She was my mate. My true, fated mate. My Goddess given mate. And she had marked and mated another, conceived a child and all. I was angry. My plot for revenge would become more difficult than I thought. Jax was going berserk in my mind. Yelling and prancing around like an asshole.‘Mate! Mate! Tara’s our Mate! Goddess, I knew it! I knew all along there was something special about her. She’s ours,’ he howled, giving me a headache.‘Shut up, you moron. Can’t you see we cannot have her? She’s marked,’ I said, not feeling an inch of guilt for bursting his bubble.I tried to make my way to her quickly, eager to show her everything she had thrown away. My eyes had raked up and down he
Tara-I walked away from Jayce as gracefully as I could. He wasn’t the same, sweet boy I remember. He had turned into a rich prick. Coming here to rub his success in my face. Was he trying to hurt me? Of course he was, why else would he be here. I broke his heart in the cruelest way. I didn’t blame him for trying to have his revenge on me, I just didn’t think Jayce could ever be capable of that. But I guess people change….The pain in my chest was finally subsiding as the pills took their effect. I found Olivia by the snack table, drinking punch while some young boy talked her ear off. My baby girl was not so easily swayed by these silly boys and I was damn proud of her.“Good Evening, Luna,” the boy bowed, smiling like he just stepped out of the dentist office.“Good Evening…” I responded.“Grant,” he provided with an award winning smile.“Grant. I haven’t see you around here,” I reply, looking at Livvy who is rolling her eyes in annoyance.“That’s because I belong to Will
Jayce-“What happened?” I asked Belle as soon as she entered the SUV.“I’m sorry. I tried to keep his attention, but I think his wolf was sensing Tara’s distress. His eyes kept flashing,” Belle responded, looking ashamed at her failed task.Twice, Mason had interrupted my time with Tara earlier. It was Belle’s job to keep him entertained and away from us, while I had my time with Tara. I would have to see about silencing his wolf since he had a connection with her because of the mate bond.Tomorrow, I would look into his finances, digging up whatever dirt I could find on the prick. We made it back to the hotel where I went up to my room to shower. I scrolled through the contacts on my phone afterward, dialing a number I hadn’t used in a while.“It’s been awhile,” the familiar voice said on the other line.“I know. I need something,” I cut right to the chase.The next morning, I dressed immaculately. I would be visiting Tara in her office today, hopefully she’d actually be ther
Mason- I was fucking pissed last night. Things with Belle were moving along swiftly. She had hauled me off the dance floor, pulling me into a linen closet where she shoved me against the door. I could smell her arousal, she was practically begging for my cock. I kissed her hungrily as her hands got straight to work, unbuckling my belt and pulling my cock out. She was giving me a handy as I groped her tits. “Alpha, I want to taste you,” she purred, getting down on her knees and taking me in her mouth. My head fell back against the door as she sucked me off. Goddess she was so much better than all the inexperienced omegas around here. Most of them were virgins before I took them, which was okay and all, but sometimes you just needed a woman who knew what she was doing and not some innocent pup. I groaned as she worked me, her hand cupping my balls and massaging them. She kept moaning, like she was enjoying sucking me. Goddess she had me hooked on her. The little slut was wo
Tara-“You just said you fell,” he accused, his brows furrowing.Shit. I did just say that. I kept my eyes on the floor, too afraid to look into his caramel ones.“I meant, I fell at training,” I replied, “You know how rough it can get.”Of course! People shift during training to fight in wolf form also, which would explain the claw marks as well.“Yeah, I do. Remember I used to watch you,” he replied, making my cheeks flush at the memories.“Except, you haven’t trained in years. Why are you lying to me, Tara? What are you hiding?” he said, taking my hands in his rough, calloused ones.I was in panic. I yanked my hands out of his, turning in my chair to face my desk, “I’m not lying.”How the fuck did he know I hadn’t trained in years? These bloody servants must be running their damn mouths, spilling all the gossip. But why would he be looking into it anyways? Maybe it’s all part of his plan of revenge. Learn all his my dirty secrets before he takes me down or whatever his p
Jayce-‘Noo! What are you doing? We can’t let her go back to that monster. Release me! I’ll rip his throat out,’ Jax growled, fighting for control as I made my way back to the temporary office I had been lent.‘Cut your shit, Jax,’ I wrestled, ‘He’s an Alpha. We can’t act so rash. Even if you won’t admit it, you know he will beat us. We need to plan, calculate,’ I reasoned.‘Fuck your calculating, you fucking geek,’ Jax roared, his claws ripping through my fingers, ‘Set me free, you fucking pussy. I’ll save MY mate!’It took every ounce of strength I had to contain him. He was furious after learning Mason was abusive to Tara. The only reason he hadn’t reacted earlier was the fact that she was in our arms, keeping him calm. But the minute I walked away from her, he went ballistic. He fought for control, sending me crashing into the wall, the sound of breaking glass from the once neatly hung picture frames hitting the floor resonating in the room. His claws pierced the couch
Trey-Hanging up with Jay, I sighed heavily. Why did she have to turn out to be his fucking fated mate? I stepped back inside from my balcony, walking over to my laptop to go over the files Jay had sent me again. I had already seen some beforehand, but Jay seemed to be a lot more thorough in his investigation. I knew Mason was in debt, but I had no idea just how far it went. He owed so many banks money, the cops would be knocking down his door any minute now to drag him to court.I already knew this account would be a bust, so when Jay told me I had to feign surprise. You see, I had orchestrated this entire thing. I met Jay in college. He was a scrawny shy boy back then. I found him one day, looking like a lost sheep in the meadow. He was cleaning the sweat off his glasses, attempting to read the instructions on some work out machine. He looked so out of place. What the heck was this scrawny nerd doing in a gym? But after I got a good look at him, I realized who he was.
