They both turned to see Claire with her arms crossed, watching them. “Oliver, what are you doing?” Raven was interested to see how he would talk his way out of this.
“It’s none of your business Claire.” Oliver instantly shut the question down.
“Who is she Oliver? And yes, it is my business, we’re getting married.” Clarie waltz over to the Raven, looking down her nose. Raven felt her stomach drop when Claire mentioned marriage. Instead of backing away, Raven held her ground, staring up at her.
“She a friend, and possible client,” responded Oliver. “And just because my father asked you to be my wife, doesn’t mean I did.”
“Looks like you guys have some things to discuss, I’m just going to go.” Raven began to back away.
“Wait, I know who you are.” Claire glared. “You’re that clumsy waitress. Oliver, why are you bringing yourself to her level?” Claire took a threatening step in Raven’s direction.
Raven watched her closely, almost hoping she’d try
Oliver had gone home, washed off quickly, and changed into dark clothes and a ski mask. He felt silly, but he didn’t need anyone to recognize him, especially Raven. He would stay on the roof tops keeping out of sight. Luckily, he could see well in the dark, thanks to his wolf’s nature.Oliver made his way quickly back to the motel, he smelled her instantly. She wasn’t too far. He finally spot her on the main street, she looked angry and confused. Oliver wondered what happened to make her upset. He stayed to the edge following, he watched her go down an alleyway, stopping and looking around.A man came out a back door of a shop. Oliver tense, “Are you lost girlie?” Oliver relaxed the man wasn’t sending any malice vibes. But Raven froze when her eyes landed on the man.‘He was not a wolf, he can’t be one of her attackers,’ assumed Oliver.“Hey, it’s okay, I won’t hurt you, do you need help?” The man started walking slowly to her, then she reacted, pulling out a knife and screaming at th
Oliver didn’t want to tell her no, but the whole underground world knew of him, and he knew she wasn’t ready to know that he was a werewolf yet. “I would love to, but not tonight. Why don’t you stay with me tonight?”Raven stood up, pulling the key from the collar and opening the locker. “You can’t come tonight, but you want me to go home with you. Why not tonight?”Oliver had pulled himself together, running his hand through his hair, he had blotched up his request. “I rather have you in my bed relaxing, I have a big meeting tomorrow.”Raven slipped on the dress, “I don’t know about that. I think we’d be far less relaxed if we were in your bed. No, I need to stay consistent. If you wouldn’t mind dropping me off at the motel?”Oliver was silent for a bit, maybe he could watch her from above, make sure she’s safe. “Yeah, I can do that.”Raven smiled, “excellent.”Oliver changed and they left. “I’ll send you another outfit tomorrow, and I’ll pick you up at eight,” stated Oliver pulling
Raven walked over to the door irritated. She noticed Oliver’s tense stance.Trevor pushed his way into the room, “Are you okay Raven? I called and a man answered your phone. I was worried about you.”Raven walked up to Trevor, “Out.”Oliver wolf growled, “So, you’re her boyfriend?”“What?! Is that what you told him on the phone?” Raven jabbed Trevor in the chest, backing him up to the door.“You didn’t answer, I was worried. I didn’t know if you were in danger. I thought I’d get more information...” Trevor was reaching.Raven looked to Oliver, “Excuse me a moment.” Raven began pushing Trevor out to the hallway.“I can call security,” offered Oliver, Raven just looked at him. He dropped the idea.As soon as the door was shut, Raven laid into Trevor, “Trevor, stop following me. I spoke with Marshal, you took a two week vacation. I was going to keep you around, Marshal made me see that you could be helpful, but if you keep pulling this shit… Ugh… I’m so angry with you.”“I was speaking w
Raven pushed at his chest, she didn’t like how this was turning her on, it should be the opposite, it should be making her run. Was she more fuck up than she realized. “Let me go, I’m not yours and I don’t appreciate being treated as such. I go where I please and who I please with.”“If you’re going to be my submissive, you do as I say,” growled Oliver.“I don’t want to do it anymore, it’s going to your head. I’ll find another way,” she continued pushing. His lips found hers, he was kissing her, he didn’t know if this was the right way to go about it, but he wasn’t going to let her slip away. Raven eventually melted in his arms, fuck she was screwed up.They broke for air, and Raven glared up at Oliver “Why the fuck do I feel like I need you so much?”Oliver decided now was the time to explain the mate bond, he needed to be open with her, if he expected her to be truthful. As he opened his mouth to speak, he noticed she was starting to cry. “Raven… I’m sorry… if you want to leave…”Sh
After a few minutes, Raven rolled out of bed, “Mind if I use you shower to clean up?”“I’ll show you to the guess room. Take a bath if you like,” offered Oliver getting out of bed, not bothering to put anything on and walking to the guest room. Raven followed closely behind, watching his muscles move as he walked.“Damn,” breathed Raven as she walked into the bathroom, large soaking tub, walk-in shower, even a small sauna. “You sure know how to treat your guests.”Oliver grinned, “I don’t usually have too many guests. There’s towels and extra soaps in the closet, use what you like, along with some bathrobes.“Usually, I would turn something like this generally down, but this all looks too inviting. You might have to drag me out of here,” joked Raven running her hand along the top of the tub.Oliver walked up behind her, resting his hands on her shoulders, leaning down to whisper in her ears, his cock already hardening up again, pressing against her back. “I could always join you.”Rav
Once in the elevator Oliver glanced over at Raven, excited that she was there, he had thought he had ruined things last night, or was she only here because of the job. Either way, his wolf purred in contempt that she was here on his arm. “What do I owe the pleasure?”“I came to apologize about last night,” started Raven. “I guess I was still a little pissed off with not being able to speak with Bently. I know he has information I need.”“No, I’m sorry, I should have stayed in my lane,” apologized Oliver, now she won’t be able to speak with him, but hopefully Alvin got some information. Oliver’s mind went back to last night,“Boss, how’d you manage this, he’s an Alpha?” questioned Alvin once he arrived to help.Oliver shrugged, “I did it for my mate. They say a wolf can get strong when it involves a true mate.”“You found your mate?” Alvin seemed excited. “Is it that girl?”Oliver nodded, “This bastard raped her when she was younger. It seems he had other victims too. We need to clean
