***Troy, to Philip, was adorably feisty and absolutely gorgeous. The strongest of men were powerless when it came to characters like Troy. Be it the strongest-willed men, most respected men, richest men, leaders, men of honour and grace…it didn’t really matter once that individual fell under the charm of a person like Troy. Men were left helpless and weak in the wake of such sweet strength. Philip knew that it wasn’t any different for him.That intense lust that assailed his senses whenever he was with his mate was evidence enough. The need to fuck his mate’s brains out was so bad he was impressed at the self-control he’d exhibited so far. But he’d already acted rashly by giving Troy his mark at the wrong time for which his mate had still not forgiven him. It would definitely not be right, therefore, to pour all his sexual frustration and need on the innocent boy without the appropriate mental preparation.In as much as Troy clearly wanted him, Philip knew that their relationship wou
***“He’s his mate, Troy,” Philip said gently.“What?” Troy turned to look at Philip. “How do you know?”“I asked A.G. on our link when I saw what was going on.”“I don’t believe him,” Troy growled. “He’s just saying that to save his skin.”Philip had to stop himself from bursting into laughter. He didn’t want to add to Troy’s anger by telling him that Agyemang didn’t need to lie to save his skin at all because he could fuck anyone he wanted once the person gave his or her consent.“You know werewolves sometimes find their mates amongst humans, right?” Philip asked.“Yes but…” Troy relaxed back into the swing and stared ahead. “Did your friend even bother to tell Paul he was his mate before getting into his pants?”“I didn’t ask him,” Philip murmured. “We will know soon enough. But please don’t make Paul feel bad about this.” Philip said softly. “They both clearly got carried away. It happens.” He shrugged. In fact, that was rather the norm but Philip refrained from telling his shaken
***“I can’t come right out and tell him that, Paul.” Troy snapped. “But he knows. He tells me to control myself and think pure thoughts whenever I’m aroused around him.”“Oh boy,” Paul murmured.“It’s all good because I wouldn’t know what to do anyway.” Troy got off the couch and went to pick up the two cell phones that Philip had left on the dining table. “Besides, that mammoth dick of his is definitely getting nowhere inside me. This is ours.” He said as he sat back down beside Paul. “This one has your name.” Troy handed one of the boxes to Paul.“Thanks.” Paul took the fully charged phone out of its box and began to scroll through it. “I already have your number and some others stored. Cool! Come closer and let’s take a shot.”“You’re crazy.” Troy laughed but he sat closer to Paul and smiled as he took the shot of them.“Here, let me use yours too.” Paul snatched Troy’s phone from him. “Now smile.” He instructed as he took another shot of them. “Now sit back and let me take one of
***When Troy got to Philip, he leaned over him for a moment, staring into his eyes. Then he threw a leg across Philip’s thighs and then sat on his lap, straddling him. The delighted shouts from the people in the room showed how cool they found that move. Their chants increased as Troy’s gaze lowered to Philip’s mouth. But Troy honestly didn’t know how to go about it. When he felt the nudge in his mind, an indication that Philip wanted to open their mind-link, Troy allowed him in.‘What are you waiting for?’ Philip asked on their mind-link.‘I don’t know what to do.’ Troy muttered.‘Just dig in and take the candy.’ Philip said as he parted his lips.Troy stared at the sexily parted lips of his mate with longing anticipation. The only lips that his had ever touched were Paige’s. And that definitely didn’t count. He wanted so bad to know how Philip’s was going to feel like against his. He leaned in slowly until his lips were on Philip’s surprisingly soft ones, then he closed his eyes. T
***“Where are you going?” Troy asked breathlessly as he watched Philip zipping himself up. Every inch of his body throbbed with wanting.“Out,” Philip responded gruffly. “Something came up.” He grabbed his cell phone off the table and slipped it into his pocket. “If you try to link up and I don’t respond, then I’m out of the pack house. Get in touch on my phone.”He started to leave the bedroom but paused at the door and turned around to look at Troy. Philip didn’t think he’d seen a more desirable person. Troy’s flawless body, those blue lust-filled eyes, the way his kiss-swollen lips trembled slightly, his flushed face…“Fuck…” Philip groaned. On the outside, the alpha looked composed but on the inside, his blood raced like mad. He would have loved nothing more than to get back in that bed and work that sexy body until they both passed out from excessive bliss. But in a way, he thought that message from Jeremy couldn’t have come at a more appropriate time. “Will you be okay?”Troy m
***Two weeks after the mysterious death of Blaze, five warlocks sat in the middle of the huge compound of a farmhouse which was now their own…though not legally, strategizing.“I know what I’m talking about,” Mary said quietly to the other four warlocks. “That Jeremy individual is something else. Those freaks of nature that the werewolves have are not to be fooled with. We need to take our time and plan.”“That’s true.” Mario, one of the two male warlocks nodded.“My dear husband…rest his soul, told me about how Jeremy turned about thirty warlocks to ash with just a snap of his finger. We need to know how to proceed if we don’t want to end up with the same fate.”“That little shit.” One female warlock spat. “So he thinks he’s back with his people huh?”“Watch it, Sally.” Mary snapped. “From what I saw from that criminal’s mind, Troy was angry at the wolves. He thought they were murderers.”“Yeah, but for how long?” Sally muttered. “I’m sure his mother and brother have told him how wi
***“Come with me, child.” The white-haired man repeated. “They will kill you if you remain here. They don’t appreciate the gift that you have.” Then he’d turned to her angry and confused-looking father. “What you should have done was nurture her gift, help her channel it well. She doesn’t even know what she has. You fools don’t even know what she can do for you. And yet instead of finding out and helping her, you’re willing to take her life. Come, Mary.”“No…” Her mother had screamed. “Leave my daughter for me.”“And are you sure you can protect her?” The man had asked. “Those men were ready to burn her alive at your husband’s command. Think you can stop all these people?”Mary’s mother had looked around with tears streaming down her cheeks and shaken her head sadly.“Your daughter will be better off with me. At least you can be assured that she will be alive. And I’m going to help her develop the beautiful gift she has…which is going to start right now.” The man had pulled Mary to h
***“They are like pests,” Stan muttered. “They keep coming back. We need to stomp on them once and for all.”“I can’t wait to meet those excuses for human beings.” Jeremy rasped as he reached for his half-full glass of whiskey. “They’re going to pay for what they did to my brother.”“Too bad we can’t trace them.” Philip breathed. “And that’s what’s irritating me. We don’t know where they are. We don’t know when they will strike. And they have these nasty tricks I’d rather not deal with.”“The fools are probably strategizing.” Stan emptied his glass and stared at the empty glass. “I can just picture them, sitting around a burning bush in gowns and wielding pitchforks. Thanks, Jim.” He gave the manager of the club a thumbs-up sign when he placed two new bottles of whiskey on their table.Being the owner of a club had its perks. But having a manager who was also a werewolf was an even better perk because he knew it took a lot for a werewolf to get drunk and therefore kept the booze flow
