Midnight stiffens as soon as I draw her into my body and everything gets extremely uncomfortable in that short second. Her face is squashed against my shoulder and her body is at an odd angle, leaning back against me with her ass on the outside and her long legs arranged in a simply weird position."Are we hugging?" she asks suddenly, without moving."No. I am hugging you but you're just in a very awkward position," I reply and even though I know it's maybe not the best idea, I move to be closer to her. I let go of her neck to slip my arm around her lower back and hug her properly. Midnight makes a sound in her throat and stiffens even more than before. Now her face is level with mine and very close, "This isn't a hug either, but it's not as weird as the last one. If you would just... relax your body a little and put your arm around me...""Like this?" he interrupts me, surprising me when he does as I asked and puts her arm around me. I'm about to say that we're actually hugging this
Does this mean that the voice inside my head was right? Am I really part animal? I mean, it's easy to call myself crazy when the animal in my head is talking to me.... but how can I justify four people who are affirming my craziness?It would be too much of a coincidence if they were just as crazy as me, so this must be true. I am a werewolf. Once I manage to pull myself together, I ask a million questions. Fortunately, my father and Angie answer everything I ask, they manage to calm me down from the details that distressme. Except there are a lot of things that distress me. "Midnight, stop," Lion blurts out, as if he's tired of me, "I get that you don't understand and it must be a lot for you, but you can learn little by little, okay? For the moment, that's enough questions. I'm hungry.""Oh... okay.""Wait for us a little longer, we have to get ready before we go out to dinner," Angie says and grabs my hand to lead me to the apartment next door, until we arrive at a place... a be
When I open the door to Lion's apartment after knocking softly, the three men are sitting on the couch watching television."What took you so long—oh, boy," Grayson lowers his gaze to my body, especially my breasts and legs. I love the attention so much that I can't help but do a spin in front of him so he can see all of me, "This isn't the same Midnight that arrived here.""Don't let Angie turn you into her clone, okay?" Lion asks, barely giving me a glance and rolling his eyes, then he extends his beer towards me as if he's offering but I shake my head, "Come and sit with us while we wait.""Okay," I walk over to the couch and make room between Grayson and Bastian again, "Lionel, I have a lot of questions for you. The first is this: what...""This isn't an interview is it?" he interrupts me, with a grimace, "I've always hated interviews. Tell me something about yourself, and I'll tell you something about me.""I have nothing to tell about myself. Nothing interesting has ever happene
For the first time in my life I start to feel like a relatively normal person, sitting here with my father, my aunt and the neighbors. I dare to order a salad with chicken and a pink lemonade. I'm hoping the chicken doesn't give me indigestion, but if it does... then it will have been worth it because it's seriously, seriously delicious. Much better than I could have imagined.We're chatting smoothly, I haven't been asked anything that makes me feel inadequate, they’re explaining more about the wolf thing and every time I turn around, Jake is watching me like he wants to eat me for dinner. That makes me feel all warm inside. I'm feeding off his attention more than the salad."Do you have a girlfriend?" I ask my dad, as he's taking a drink of the sparkling water he ordered and for some reason my question makes his throat close up and choke a little."He has three," Angie answers for him, and Lionel narrows his eyes at her, but doesn't correct her. That makes me widen my eyes in surpris
So... my first day in this clan was quite an adventure. A strange adventure. After my panic attack and apologizing four times to Jake, we return to the table and surprisingly, everyone acts as if nothing happened. I finish my salad and refuse all offers of meat from Lion, who keeps insisting that I need to eat meat and it's a sin that I don't. Then I have to endure a lecture about why eating meat is so damn important for the development of a wolf's body, muscles and even mental health. And I assure him that I will eat meat eventually, just not so soon. Once we arrived back at the building, we said goodbye to the Baylor brothers and walk into the apartment. For the first time as a family. "I'm going to bed," Lionel announces, looking weird and unsure in front of me. Angie gives me a smile before she starts walking down the hall, "You can, you know, grab whatever you want from the fridge and stuff... make yourself at home." "Thanks." "Tomorrow I'll wake you
"Hi, Mid!" Grayson greets me in a happy voice, bursting into the office and snapping me out of my stalking. I peel my gaze away from my favorite man to smile at him. I glance at the clock on the computer and realize I've spent almost five hours staring at men and squeezing my legs to try to do something about everything I'm feeling down there, "Smells like you’re horny.” “I-I don’t…” I stutter, blinking and feeling my face get hot with embarrassment, but Grayson just laughs at me. “Don’t worry, I get it,” he shakes his head, “And I have a present for you." He hands me a box and I squeal as I forget my embarrassment because this is so cool. I know I'll never talk to anyone, but at least I'm going to be able to do stuff on it and stop missing my computer. Plus, I'm going to be able to watch pörn in a more convenient way now. I'm really excited about that. Grayson links the office number to my phone so it rings there now. At least then this thing will have incomi
{ Grayson } I can tell Midnight is three seconds away from taking me up on my offer and yanking my shorts down to take advantage of me in seven different ways... or eight, because she hates the number seven. That wouldn't bother me, but this isn't the best time for the kind of sëxual vibes that are going on between us. I can't say for sure that I won't jump all over her and lick her all over right here in front of everyone. But after Lion's speech about how he doesn't want any disrespect towards his daughter, I'm not very comfortable with those hot looks said daughter is giving me. They make me feel like a traitor. "I could have touched Jake yesterday, but I didn't because I was afraid," Midnight blurts out suddenly, not taking her eyes off my exposed torso. I make a confused face but she keeps talking before I can ask her what she means, "I really wanted to touch him. But I was afraid." "That's good, you shouldn't go around thinking about touching the bo
"Go ahead," I shrug, and wipe the sweat from my brow with my hand, "Talk fast because I only have two hours and you're wasting them." "My dad is not very happy with you, in fact he's looking for a space in his busy schedule just to come and nag you," she mutters, and her words make me let out a tired grunt. My promoter is not happy with me, but that's not a surprise. He's never been happy with me. I don't even know why he bid for the job if he thinks I'm so difficult, "He thinks you're being way too controversial on social media. Much more than you should be. Plus, Jake accepted the rematch and since 'it's obvious he'll beat you again' he thinks you'll lose a lot of followers for being pathetic." "Actually, since I started being controversial I've gained a lot of followers," I explain, but Gemma doesn't look too impressed, "Granted, it's not the best audience in the world, but at least I'm making a name for myself. You have to admit, it's pretty impressive how much fame I have f
