MORDECAI
"Focus man," Brody slapped a hand on my shoulder. "I'm about to go up."
Focusing lately had been hard. Gideon and I were more distant than when I had thought of rejecting him. He would leave before I woke up, and not come home until well past midnight. The only thing that let me know he even bothered coming to the house was the sound of his shower running at some point.
Even when we were in the same room he'd look at the floor and leave without saying anything. The bags beneath his eyes and frazzled appearance let me know he was getting very little sleep. If he even slept at all. We weren't sharing a bed anymore.

MORDECAI Cassy and Miranda were quick to hurry out of the tent together. Tonight would be filled with celebrations and their families were likely waiting on them. They had that advantage over Brody and I. A loving family to go home to. "Want to come over?" I looked over to the blonde man. Brody's brows shot up in surprise," over as in... to the Alpha's house?" I shrugged," yeah, let's invite Caden over too." I paused and walked out with him. "Don't think Jennifer is going to be too up to it. Probably going to be with Jarrett all night."

GIDEON The night dragged on like it always did the last two weeks. Mordecai had hurt my feelings bad enough that Otto was barely speaking to me at this point. I decided that space was a good idea for the two of us until he either understood the gravity of what he'd said or I built up the courage to talk to him. He wasn't the brightest wolf in the pack, but I didn't think it would take this long. "Want any breakfast?" Orion yawned from the kitchen. He still lived at home with Beth, Dietrich, and Vance. Being the only unmated member of his family, his parents wanted to keep him close. His parents lived next to mine, and Silas's father was across the street. He also chose to live at home with his mate and father. Simon was beginning to go blind, so he was relieved when

MORDECAI Lifeless. I felt utterly lifeless. Things had gone back to being semi-normal with Gideon, but my heart felt shattered. He no longer stayed out late or avoided me. He tended to me like a wounded child and it was exactly what I'd come to feel like. Smelling my father's scent on the items he'd left had torn a hole in my heart. One of the weird things about death is that you don't even realize when you start to forget somebody. Their voice is always the first thing people mention that goes, but it wasn't the thing that hurt me the most. What had killed me was whe

GIDEON"We're leaving within two hours. Ace has the club set up, I just need you guys to keep Mordecai distracted. Do whatever you have to do," I paused and added. "Just for fuck's sake don't get him in on one of the orgies."Silas howled with laughter, slapping Orion's shoulder who growled at him. The beta had been taking on more of a workload since summer time because Morwenna wanted a pup and Silas was with her most free moments. It was leaving him grumpy and making me realize I needed to take a step back from work after this weekend to be with the pack more.Orion crossed his arms, sneering at the smaller man," don't let your fucking brother touch the kid. We all know

MORDECAI "Come on man, loosen up. There aren't as many rules here. Lycans just kind of fall in place naturally," Alpha Ryder handed me what was going to be my third cup of wolfsbane laced alcohol. Something was up and I wanted to find out what. Gideon had been ripped from me the moment all the introductions were done and we settled in the room. I wasn't alone in this though. Brody was sulking deeply and drowning his sorrows next to me. Apparently he'd smelt Ace's scent wafting in the wind at some point. I gulped down a hearty amount of the cup and groaned. It stung my throat and clouded my mind," are you purposely trying to get me drunk?" I tried to sound confident b

GIDEON - CHAPTER CONTAINS SENSITIVE MATERIALSRiz and Liz were working over the alpha nicely, dancing around him and making sure to playfully tease him. The speakers were blaring music loudly and the building smelled strongly of lust and alcohol."So handsome," one of the purple demons cooed into his ear."So strong," the other rubbed themself against the older alpha.It worked like magick and I saw the spark of light come to his eyes as his ego was stroked. He was just one in a long line of higher ranked wolves that didn't respect their mate bond. The scar on his neck meant

MORDECAI"Please leave me alone, I don't even know who the fuck you are!" Jennifer was red faced and livid, trying to scramble away from the lycan at her side. He stared at her fondly and stayed quiet. She was absolutely fuming and had been scurrying around the kitchen all morning.Caden was lying on the floor like some accident victim with a pack of ice shoved into his underwear and a cup of black coffee next to his face. The wolf found out the hard way that lycans have a knot and was regretting taking on so many.Brody was absolutely beaming with a deep bruise set against his neck and Ace casually sat next to him, picking at a plate full of scrambled eggs.

MORDECAI"I thought you said I was going to start working with you?" I whined at the alpha.Gideon laughed, rounding the kitchen island to hand me breakfast. "You will get to come to work with me, promise. I just need to step back for a few weeks and take care of the pack. It's not a good idea to stay away for long periods of time and I haven't been around much since you arrived in June," he mumbled the last part.I poked around at my müsli, happy to be back home but not happy about having to wait longer to be part of the company. I wanted to feel like I was doing more than just training and making it up the ranks. This felt like my opportunity to become more deservin
