“You didn’t kill it did you, it had a cub” I ask Archer looking down at him. Logan’s voice flitting through my head.“No bears are off limits I just scared it off, fucker bit our leg” He says, and I notice the chunk of flesh on his back leg hanging slightly but already healing.I nod listening for the noise before seeing a rabbit next to the stream, it looks up taking off and I chase it but with my hurt leg it outran me running into a log. Archer watching me curiously as I reach my arm in trying to reach it, when I feel its fur and grab it, pulling it out by its ears.“Sorry little one” I tell it, before sinking my teeth into it and draining it. Archer whines loudly sniffing me as he approaches, he looks at the dead rabbit in my hands before looking up at me.“Don’t look at me like that, I feel terrible enough” I tell him, as he sniffs it before taking it. I nearly throw up as Archer eats the body, the crunching of its bones making me want to puke.I could hear Logan yelling at him to
“I know, I”“Why? Why did you defend her at the pack meeting?”“I..-”“Tell me or I am walking, I will walk away from both of you”“Hazel ”-“Do you love her?” I ask him.“What no, it's not that, I love you, not her. I just want you to get along, she is my friend that’s it”“A friend that means more to you then your mate” I tell him, hopping out.“I can’t just turn my back on her Hazel ”“No, and you also can’t choose me over her” I tell him, wrapping my towel around me.“She saved my life” he says as I opened the door. I stop, turning back to him.“What?”“You are not the only one that suffers with depression Hazel , after Lucas rejected me I hung myself she cut me down, lived with me for two years and kept me sane while he fooled around with anyone, I had nobody here, my mother was dead, I killed my father I had nothing but the mate bond and then he took that from me, so I tried to end it, Melinda saved me, I kicked her out when she wanted more, more than I could give her. I wasn’t
“I wouldn’t have got them back out” He says, I look over at him.“Why are you up still?” He asks, walking over to me and helping me empty them.“I can’t sleep” I tell him. We empty the bottles before tossing them back in.“I’m not an alcoholic despite what you and Drake think, but I won’t drink if you don’t want me to” he says.Articles you may likeThe Might of the Ottoman Empire: A Comprehensive Analysis of Its Political, Financial, and Military StrengthThe Grandeur of the Mughal Empire: A Comprehensive Analysis of Its Political, Financial, and Military StrengthGlobal Manufacturing Map: Unveiling the Assembly Journey of Apple's iPhonesExploring the Depths: A Journey into the Five Deepest Caves in the WorldI nod walking inside and filling a glass with milk before drinking it. I rinse the cup Tate standing next to the counter watching me.I walk upstairs heading back to my room when he grabs my hand tugging me in the direction of their room. He stops waiting.“Come to bed, our bed
“I didn’t hurt you?” Logan asks.“No, the opposite actually” I yawn. Logan leans over kissing me, and I climb off Drake. Tate’s erection pressing against me as I lay in the middle between them. I reach my hand stroking him and he grabs my wrist,“I am fine, I am just glad you're talking to me now” He says rolling on his side and kissing me.Lucas shifts next to me sitting up before shoving Logan’s shoulder forcing him on his back, Logan looks at him and I could see he was wondering what Lucas was doing as he climbed over me and onto him. Lucas kisses him, his tongue moving between Logan’s lips and he groans into Luca's mouth as their lips hungrily devour each other.Lucas pulls away kissing his jaw and neck before moving to his chest and abs.“Lucas I don’t expect you too,”“I want to Logan, though I don’t really know what I am doing” He admits. Lucas sits up leaning over and kissing me before settling between Logan’s legs. I sit up and watch, also not having ever done that before. Lu
“Yes, I know they are out there, so I wanted to wait, and I hope they did the same”“And I thought I had blue balls waiting eleven years” Logan mutters with chuckle.“How old are you?” I ask him curious.“24” he says with a shrug.“Yes, Hazel my father wasted no time in moving on, we are only 3 years apart, probably helps my father’s second chance mate was another pack member”“Have you heard from anyone from Red River?” Lucas asks about his old pack. Chase shakes his head.“Can’t even get a hold of our brothers, something is going on over there. One of the reasons I don’t want to go home”Janet Something was not right, after talking to my sister, worry was eating at me, she had always suffered with depression since they found her, speaking to her on the phone, her mental state was in a decline, she was never one to speak her mind, quiet in nature and that bothered me, knowing she was basically at their mercy despite what she is and who she is.Hazel has always struggled with her ide
“What you never seen tits before?” I ask placing my hands on my hips, his face flushed red.“Yes of course I have Hazel , but Alpha Logan and Alpha Lucas might be upset over your choice of wardrobe, I will get you something to cover up” He says turning his back on me and walking toward the outpost. I roll my eyes Alpha’s and their possessive ways. I reach in and grab a shirt to put over my sports bra, apparently, they like their woman covered from ankle to neck. I wouldn’t be surprised if I walk in and find her in a burka at this rate, especially if the guards are even worried about her wardrobe choices. I also grab a blood bag a little parched. I poke a hole in it, just as he comes back taking a mouthful.“So, you going to let me in, or do I need to show you your place?” I ask and he pulls at the collar of his shirt.“No of course Hazel go ahead” He says holding a towel, like did he really expect me to walk in wrapped in a towel over a little bit of skin. He stares at the blood bag i
Hazel’sWe had just said goodbye to Chase, when Elias busted through the door downstairs, I was upstairs but could hear his panicked voice as he ran into the house.“Alpha, you need to come quick, something is going on. Dylan just linked me and said Hazel and Melinda were getting into it down the street” I rush downstairs and Elias’s eyes go wide and he shakes his head like he couldn’t believe his eyes. His shock confused me.He looks to the door and back to me on the stairs.“How did you get back before me, I just saw you. Did you change your clothes?” He asks and I look down.“What’s going on?” I ask looking to Logan and Lucas.“But you… Melinda?” Elias looked completely lost while he looked between me and the front door not even able to string a sentence together. Hearing yelling outside, I walk outside. I could hear Dylan calling.Hazel“, Hazel, you can’t just manhandle her like that, I know she deserved it but please let the Alpha handle it” He begs someone. I walk down the steps
“No, she is right, don’t make me choose Logan you won’t win” I tell him, and I feel his hurt hit me through the bond. I was so consumed with what was going on right in front of me, I didn’t notice Melinda get up until Logan moved so quickly, I thought at first, he was going to attack me when he suddenly rips me out of the way, his hand grabbing Melinda’s as she went to hit me. Hurt shining like a beacon in her eyes as he grabs her. “Logan !” She calls her voice soft filled with hurt.“That’s Alpha to you” He snaps before I feel his Alpha aura rush out bringing her to her knees.“You dare attack your Luna ”“She was treating you like shit” Melinda argues back before her lips slam shut under his deadly glare.“She is mine and Lucas, how she talks to us is none of your business, now you will submit to her and stop this feud” he spits at her, she shows her neck to him in submission. He shakes his head before pointing to me. Her eyes dart to me and I see nothing but pure hatred burning bac
