Get away from me Lucas." Bennett growled, his claws extending. But Lucas grabbed him and turned him around, his clothed bulge pressing into Bennett. "You know you want this, little wolf." And deep-down, as Lucas grinded into him, he realized. He did want this. ~~~ Bennett Cross was born to lead the Wolf Crest Pack, he is fierce, reckless, and loyal to the blood feud passed down through generations. The Storms have always been the enemy. It started with his great-grandfather, poisoned in a border war, and every Cross since then has carried that hatred like a second skin. Lucas Storm, son of the Eastern Howl Pack Alpha, is everything Bennett can't stand. He is striking, arrogant, and maddeningly perfect. They’ve fought tooth and claw since childhood, fueled by the war their fathers never ended. But when fate throws a cruel twist on Bennett’s eighteenth birthday, the enemy he loathes becomes the mate his wolf craves. Bennett doesn’t want him, and Lucas sure as hell doesn't need him. Yet fate doesn’t ask for their permission. Now, two heirs of rival packs are bound by a bond stronger than decades of hate or bloodlines.
View MoreBennett's pov I had left Ryder and was currently pacing around a secluded side of the lush forest, a place I rarely came to except I was seriously disturbed. Ryder was sending everyone home and dismissing our close acquaintances who were still conflicted as to what had just happened. Was it a joke? They asked. And I actually wondered, I mean....the moon goddess may have just decided to toy around, like Ryder had said. So then why was I still feeling like I needed to see Storm, no....fuck no, this bond wouldn't get the better of me. The trees around me blurred into a wall of green, but the ache inside me sharpened with every second that passed. I could hear noises, cracks of branches and snaps of twigs, but I couldn't focus on them. I wasn't weak. I wasn't some sick idiot about to throw away my pride because of a stupid cosmic mistake. Storm was the enemy. He had always been the enemy. And yet here I was, pacing like a rabid dog because my wolf couldn't stop ye
Lucas's POV I ran. I didn’t look back, I didn't care who was yelling my name or chasing after me. I sprinted past the noise and kept running straight into the woods until the trees blurred at the corners of my vision. Kael was on my heels. "Lucas! Lucas! What the fuck, dude?!" I didn't stop until the ground disappeared beneath my feet. Breathless, I stumbled to a halt, standing at the very edge of the cliff. My heart punched against my chest, beating loudly. I paced, spinning in circles, my hands gripping my hair like they could somehow root me to the ground. My wolf howled inside my head. Go back. Go back to him! Claim him!. This wasn’t happening. This couldn’t be happening. Kael caught up a few seconds later, panting hard, his eyes wide with obvious disbelief. "Lucas," he called out. "Lucas, what the actual fuck just happened? Tell me this is a fucking joke. Tell me you slipped something into your drink, or I'm hallucinating just like the rest of us, or you’re pulling
Bennett's pov The day has finally come, it was my eighteenth birthday and according to tradition, it is the day that I would find my mate. It was a week after my altercation with Lucas, a week out of trouble, and a week of merriment. We were on neutral ground, neither my pack's territory nor anyone else's land. It was just an empty place that we revamped into this awesome party location. At first I had wanted it to be on pack grounds but my father had an important meeting with important visitors from other packs, so Ryder and I decided to do it out here. "Sick party, Alpha." A member of our school committee, our class president Fredrick, commented. I had invited a good number of the school's population, but the majority of the people I invited are allies or possible allies to our packs. Anybody that had affiliations with Lucas storm or anything that has to do with his pack couldn't come near my party, Ryder had carefully made sure that they didn't get any invitations whatsoe
Lucas's pov. Kael leaned against the tiled wall, twirling the hoe between his fingers as he helped me uproot the dead flowers. "You know," he said, smirking, "one day you're going to push Cross too far and he's going to be a more irritating bitch." I shrugged. "That's exactly what I want. Watching Bennet lose his cool satisfies me, a lot." Still, as I glanced at the restroom where Bennett was hunched over, scrubbing with all the rage in his tiny, angry heart, a smile stretched on my lips. It was too easy to set him off. It was almost boring at this point. Almost. "Come on," Kael nudged my side. "Before Trent finds another chore for your sorry ass." I was about to follow him when I caught Bennett's eyes again. Grey and cold. Burning holes into me like he wished he could erase me from existence. I gave him a slow, mocking wink just to see that vein on his forehead pop, just how I liked it His gloved hands clenched the sink like he was about to uproot it. Perfect. "Lucas,"
Bennett's pov"Bennett, you can't keep doing this."I placed the wet napkin under my bleeding lip, it probably was laced with ethanol because it stung on contact."That son of a bitch deserved it. He is so lucky that I didn't beat his stupid grin in."My Beta, Ryder shook his head. The lollipop between his lips making a 'pop' sound as he pulled it from his mouth."I know, but you should learn to ignore Lucas by now. I do the same with Kael."Kael Rivers was the bastard's Beta, the only difference was that he actually knew when to shut up. Unlike a certain dark-haired idiot that derived pleasure in provoking me."If Lucas would be as silent as Kael, probably. But you know he never keeps his mouth shut."I could see the way the students, the freshers shot me scared glances as they scurried towards the bleachers."See," Ryder remarked with a smirk. "Your outburst was too loud, it scared the new ones."I rose from the seat."We are wolves, not pony princesses." I looked at the freshers. "
