Loyal To The Pack 49 Home
Nate Getting back home has proven to be more difficult than I anticipated. I'm concerned that climbing the stairs to my house may reopen my wounds. Leaning on Sarah for support makes me uneasy. This is not how I had envisioned showing her around my place. I’m unable to give her a tour, and even standing seems to be a daunting task. Although I manage to make it to the kitchen, I feel dizzy and realize I'm not as healed as I thought. I spy her facial expressions and movements carefully like a hawk. I want to know what aspects of the house she enjoys and what needs to be changed. Although I trust her honesty and doubt she would mislead me, I’ve been waiting for a long time to witness the genuine joy on her face when she really likes something here. "I love it; it’s perfect," she says, disappearing to look around in the bedroom. Just when Sarah comes back to the kitchen, the doorbell rings. With a bright smile, she gives me a peck on my lips and leaves toward the door, skipping on the w
Loyal To The Pack 50 Guard
Sarah Being in Nate's house feels surreal. The place is simply perfect, with a cozy style in each room and warmth coming from the logs everywhere. Today, I was overwhelmed by the visits from many pack members. I was pleasantly surprised by how kind and friendly everyone was towards me. Many of them reminisced about our childhood and shared stories about our time together, whether it was practicing together or having something in common at school. Once inside, the world seems to come to a halt, and we swim in happiness. However, the moment we step out, I'm reminded of the other pack members, who are not happy with the recent developments. I see their scolding, hear their murmuring behind me, and I’m back to being the little girl who doesn’t belong here. Even with Lena inside me, I still feel out of place. Some even stop to ask Nate about his recovery, only to ignore me completely. Lena watches everything through my lenses and has her guard up, especially around Gabriel. She doesn’t
Loyal To The Pack 51 Alpha tone
Nate The pack meeting took an unexpected turn, leaving me seething with anger. Gabriel’s actions went beyond outing and humiliating Sarah when he commanded her in front of everyone. Each word he uttered fueled my fury. I had no idea I could be that mad at him. On top of my own emotions, I had to hold back Dante, who grew increasingly enraged as he sensed Sarah’s distress. He had always respected Gabriel’s wolf, but now, he was ready to attack him if he would anger our mate any further. "Was that really necessary?" I ask as I catch up to him. "Why did you use your alpha tone?” "Yes, it was necessary,” he cuts in, turning back to me swiftly before I could finish my thought. “She has to know I won't tolerate rogues on the territory." Won’t tolerate it? Where is his head at? Even if she was a rogue, that’s not enough reason to demand anything or humiliate her. I close the door behind me. I don’t want to have this conversation in front of everyone else. They already feel Gabriel’s ang
Loyal To The Pack 52 Marked
Nate With Sarah’s embrace, the pounding in my ears disappears, and her words soothe me back to reality, where the only thing that matters is that she is beside me. More so in my lap, wrapping me in her intoxicating scent. She must have felt my sudden change in emotions because the featherlight kisses she was leaving on the top of my head, moved to my face and jaw. I couldn’t wait till she connected our lips. I took advantage of our proximity and swallowed her moan as I kissed her fiercely. My tongue searched hers, tasting the soft skin on it. Her hands glide down my chest slowly, teasingly, jumping over my belt to gently feel the length of my shaft, making it pulse. I groan with approval, searching her gaze as she separates us for a moment. A cheeky smile spreads through her face as she bites her bottom lip, and I dive back to capture them again. Yesterday she was adamant that I wasn’t healed perfectly for anything more than cuddling. I didn’t complain. Having her in my arms in m
Loyal To The Pack 53 Shift
Sarah My hands shake in the cold as I hide them in my hoodie’s sleeves. I’d say it’s my nerves because they are on the last thread for sure, but as I plan to undress and shift in a few minutes, I chose not to wear enough clothes. That was a wrong move on my part - the early morning of February day in Black River is freezing. Slipping on the frozen snow for the hundredth time, I curse at my clumsiness today. I’m heading to my childhood hiding spot to meet up with Nate. He convinced me to meet him there, as all I wanted to do was hide somewhere and go through my first shift alone. I don’t really know any other way to deal with things. I would’ve met him afterward, but I wanted to leave the bed before he woke up. Obviously, I failed with that attempt. The hurt I saw in his eyes when I told him about my plan washed over me, guided by our bond. I couldn’t leave him there. So, we settled on me shifting alone, but he’ll be on his way by then. So, here I am, attempting to shift at 25 when
Loyal To The Pack 1 Sarah
Sarah The chilly wind sneaks under my hair, sending a cold shiver down my spine. I quickly pull up the fur-lined hood of my jacket. Where is this cold coming from? We have only a handful of chilly days during winter, as the weather rarely goes below zero. “Please, please," she pleads, her tiny lips pouting. "Ok, Abby, one last slide," I consent, unable to say no to that cute little face, especially with her eyes shining like her mum’s. "Thanks, Aunt Sarah. You're the best." The end of her hair flips as she turns like a windstorm and sprints off. We came to this playground when I picked her up from preschool, and I’m surprised that it’s not empty due to the cold weather. I watch as she tells another girl excitedly that she can stay for one more slide and climbs the ladder. This time she follows through with our deal, and we leave right after she touches down. "You know, we promised your Mommy that we'll buy those running shoes today, and it’s getting dark," I explain to her a
Loyal To The Pack 2 Nate
Nate The previous day As I enter the forest, I slow down the car and roll down the window to smell the fresh snow in the woods. I can never get enough of this view and scent. It is still early morning, and the sun hasn’t had time to chase away the icy morning weather that almost freezes my windpipe and lungs. 'You can stick your head out with your tongue hanging; I won’t tell anyone.' I hear my inner wolf Dante mocking me. 'No, thanks. You can ask next time when we are riding with someone if you want that, you know,' I reply, knowing he would love doing that very well. 'I’m not a dog,'” he huffs, returning to the back of my mind, enjoying the view. After driving for a few minutes, I can see my two huskies running alongside the truck, between the trees. I just arrived back in the territory, and they recognize the sound of my Ford pick-up truck every time and follow me throughout the territory. I whistle at them, and they bark back. My big black and white boy, Champ, has bee
Loyal To The Pack 3 Mate
Nate It’s Sunday, which means family lunch at my parents’ house. I love spending time with them and Gabriel’s family as long as our father keeps his opinion on how we lead the pack. Although that rarely happens. Most of the time, we argue about things he shouldn’t be concerned about anymore. “Hi, Gabriel,” I greet him as he walks towards me when I enter the house. I’ve never called him Alpha. He asked me not to when he took on the role. We trust each other, and he treats me as his equal. He always says this is our pack, not his. “Oh look, my Beta is here,” he calls out, and I frown. He had never addressed me like this before. “Fill me in on the details. What was the problem at the border?” he motions to follow him to dad’s office. I sit down and tell him everything I’ve discussed with the rogue: my suspicions and plans. We appoint a team to search their pack land. The family lunch goes as it usually goes, I sit with Clara, Gabriel’s oldest, and she explains every new technique s
