The atmosphere in the room was utterly tense and uncomfortable. Staying in here was making me anxious and giving me a headache. I stood up and immediately all eyes were on me once again. I ignored their stares and went into my closet, finding a pair of sweats and pulling them on. I slipped my feet into shoes and pulled on a sweater before making my way back into the room.
“Kara, what are you doing?” Cadmus asked as he stood up and took a step towards me. I held up my hand and took a step back, the action causing him to freeze and watch me in concern.“I can’t think with all of you around right now. Your emotions are overwhelming and it's making it impossible for me to sort through everything. My dragon keeps trying to push to the surface, fueled by your possessiveness and rage and my wolf...she's too quiet. I need time on my own to sort through the combined emotions. Please understand, I need that time alone.” I looked at each of them, seeing the confusion, the conThe next few days I threw myself into work and training, I was up early, ate breakfast quickly and off to morning training before I’d break for lunch, clean myself up and then barricade myself in my office for the rest of the day until supper. Once supper was over I couldn’t avoid them anymore and they’d bombard me in the living room and ask how I was doing and why I was avoiding them. I felt like an utter asshole but I didn’t have a clear head yet and I didn’t know what to do. I know I was being stupid and childish but even still I couldn’t seem to stop myself. I didn’t want to push them away but I was on edge and my nerves were frayed and both my dragon and my wolf were riding me hard with the absence of Kane and Magnus. They needed their mates back with them and no matter the amount of assurance both men gave me, I had a gnawing sense of dread that was chewing up my insides and no matter what I c
“Let me get this straight. You want to leave your pack and travel to Kane’s, even though there is a very real threat after you?” Cadmus asked for what was probably the thousandth time since I came into the office. I just looked at him with a very unimpressed face and crossed my arms over my chest. “I’m not asking for permission, Cadmus. I was letting you know what’s going on and that I will be going regardless and setting things up here so everything is taken care of in my absence. I’m also not going to be travelling alone. I will take Brodryn with me and either one of my scouts or Echo.” I explained as I walked towards him and climbed into his lap, straddling him in the office chair and wrapping my arms around his neck. He looked momentarily surprised before wrapping his arms around me and pulling me closer to him. “I don’t like the thought of you leaving th
I walked down the stairs with the bag slung over my shoulder and my shoes and a leather jacket in my hands. The plan was for us to fly to a rendezvous point, which was a decently rated motel, settle in for the night and once Echo got to us we’d leave in the truck in the morning. With us flying we’d most likely get to the motel before Echo even though he left earlier than us. I made my way to the front yard where Gram, Gigi, Brodryn and Laris were waiting, smiling as I saw Blaze, Cadmus and Alaric join the group as well. I gave Gram and Gigi a hug, assuring them I would be safe and that everything was ok. I went over a few things with Laris and Alaric, this time they assured me that everything would be fine and the pack would be safe. I then turned to Blaze and smiled as he pulled me to him and gave me a guilty and heated kiss, telling me to stay safe. As soon as I promised I was pulled into Cadmus’s arms and given a slow lingering kiss that left me sighing for more. I assured him I w
I watched from inside the shower as Brodryn stripped out of his clothes and stalked across the floor towards me, stepping into the shower and closing the curtain behind him, immediately the temperature rising from the heat he naturally generated. I stayed under the water and made sure I was fully wet before I switched positions with him, both of us careful not to touch one another just yet, the mutual restriction just adding to the building tension. While he got himself wet I made sure to soap every inch of my body, taking my time and shivering from the low rumble emitting from Brodryns chest as he watched me.Once more we switched positions as I rinsed the soap from my body and he scrubbed his skin. I took my time, making sure my hands were slow and methodical as they ran all over my body, watching him with eyes glowing with my dragon and licking my lips as I watched him wrap his hand around his hard length and stoke himself a groan leaving his lips as my hand teased and played with
I woke in the morning to the feel of light kisses on my neck and warm arms pulling me close to a heated chest. I hummed in contentment as I turned in his arms, burrowing my face into his chest and kissing the skin over his heart. “Good morning, beautiful.” Brodryn murmured as he kissed me, his voice deeper and laced with sleep. I chuckled and kissed him back softly before stretching and groaning from how good it felt. “What time are we heading out?” I ask as I look over to Echo’s bed and don’t see him but the shower is running so he’s still in the room. “Once we’re all ready and have everything together we’ll head out. You need to eat since flying took a lot out of you last night. So while you shower I will go and get us some food while Echo stays in here with you.” He explained as he stood up and started to pull on his clothes, sitting on the bed as he put his shoes on and smiled at me as I pulled his hair back and braided it down his back, a happy rumble coming from his chest.
I looked around the space in awe, it was open concept and beautifully set up. There was a nice clean entranceway that opened up into a spacious living room with cream coloured couches, a navy blue coloured recliner chair, pale grey walls with one navy blue accent wall that was decorated with a collage, a large tv over an electric fireplace, and a huge window that overlooked the side of the house and it was a nice view. The kitchen was just to the side of the living room and it was amazing. The large stove, butcher block countertops, the stainless steel appliances and all the cabinetry were a nice navy blue colour with brass handles. It was to die for. I was so jealous of his kitchen and I knew Gram would have been for sure as well. I walked through the space and came to a home office that was decorated with shades of grey and cream and some navy accents like the curtains and a few comfy chairs on the other side of the black wood desk. It was a nice space but definitely masculine. I
I stirred in the morning and sighed as I felt the warm body pressed to my back and smiled as I was enveloped in the combined scents of Kane and Magnus. Feeling only one body in bed with me had me opening my eyes and seeing Kane’s side of the bed empty and a small note on his pillow. I reached over and looked at his neat cursive and felt a spark of silly jealousy, my chicken scratch would never be this nice. : Babe, I had some things that required my attention since I’ve been gone for a while. I will make sure that the pack knows of your multiple mates so that you are free to act with Magnus and Brodryn as you wish to. I will also make sure no one says anything about it. Relax with Magnus for the remainder of the morning and I will come around lunch or whenever it is I manage to finish up. Love A : I was so used to calling him Kane that it surprised me to see him refer to himself as Alistair. Maybe I should actually ask him what he preferred me to call him. I stretched out and set the
I walked into the bedroom and stripped out of my clothes, smiling to myself as I could hear them getting closer. I went into the shower and turned the water on hot, stepping in and letting it soothe my skin. I felt it the moment they entered the bathroom, the atmosphere shifting to something carnal and heavy. I turned to face them as I stayed under one of the shower heads in this huge walk-in glass shower, running my hands through my hair as I watched them stalk towards me naked and ready. Gods was that ever a marvellous view. They both stepped into the shower and closed the glass door behind them, trapping us in the steam. I bit my lip and shivered as they stood under the same showerhead and helped each other get their hair and bodies wet. I ached and throbbed all over just from watching and I knew they could smell my arousal heavy in the air. They turned to face me at the same time and moved till Magnus was behind me and Kane was in front of me. I brought my hands up and ran th
