Theo’s POVThe first thought that went through my mind as I started to wake up was, ‘Thank Goddess the curse didn't show up last night.’ Not that it had ever manifested two nights in a row.The next thought was, ‘What the hell is going on?’I felt a hand wrapped around my hardened length through my shorts. My eyes yanked open, going straight to see Destiny’s hand around my dick.Slowly, I brought my gaze to the side to see her sleeping so close to me. I could feel her breath on my face, her dark hair pooling around her face, her mouth slightly open.Damn. She looked so peaceful. I shut my eyes, taking in deep breaths while my dick twitched against her palm. “Destiny,” I said in a strained voice. “Destiny, wake up.”She mumbled something and shifted closer to me, her scent tickling my nose.I didn’t think it was possible, but my dick got harder. I closed my eyes, taking a deep breath.“Destiny,” I said louder this time when I opened my eyes. “Wake the fuck up!”She finally opened her
Theo’s POVDestiny’s arousal was thick in the air, her pupils were dilated, and her face tilted up.“I’m not your good little girl,” she said, her voice soft. The anger that was in her eyes was now gone.“Should I call you my bad girl, then,” I muttered, letting my fingers move the strand of dark hair from her eyes, letting those mesmerizing blue hold mine. “My bad little sunshine.” My eyes drifted to her neck once again.This time, my wolf growled.A taste, he said.“Move.” Destiny’s voice was breathless, her eyes still hooded, the hunger in them palpable. I almost growled.I didn’t like that.“You do not tell me what to do, sunshine. Have you forgotten I’m the alpha here?” My hand slid to her waist, and I didn’t miss how her body shivered, her eyes fluttering close for a brief second.That reaction caused my dick to twitch. I wanted to bury the entirety of my length deep into her. To feel her inner walls grasping me tight.I pulled her body towards mine, letting her feel what she d
Destiny’s POV“Alpha Theo, you need to see this,” Maria said as she came bursting into the room, her skin sleek with sweat and a panicked look in her eyes.Alpha Theo, who had already seemed to notice her presence, as he was the only person who wasn’t surprised by her outburst, raised a brow.“What is it?” he asked.All attention was on Maria. She took a brief look around the room, halting briefly on mine and then back to Alpha Theo before speaking, “It’ll be best if I tell you on the way.”The alpha shared a look with his beta, and with a nod, they both got to their feet, together with Maria, leaving Rose and me at the table, curiosity on our faces.“Any idea what the problem is?” I said to Rose, my eyes staring at the hallway they disappeared through.From my side eye, I saw her shrug, “Probably just another clue she found concerning the rogues.” Her fork picked up a slice of pancake, bringing it to her mouth, chewing slowly.Whatever the problem was, I was grateful that it had give
Destiny’s POV “So, what’s the plan? How are you going to get me out without raising any suspicions?” Rose was now sitting cross-legged, tapping on something on her phone. She looked up, her blue gaze meeting mine, “You’ll hide in my car while I drive out of the parking grounds.” The same way she had brought in the human. I bit the insides of my cheeks to keep from asking about him. We weren't that close for me to do that. Plus, I wasn't sure she would like that. If that was the plan, it was really simple. I smiled, my grin wide, my heart already racing in anticipation, “I like it. When do we meet?” “An hour before midnight.” “That’s oddly specific. Why exactly that time?” I asked with a raised brow. “It’s the time the switches between the enforcers guarding the place are made. They are less likely to give a thorough check probably because their minds would be hazed with sleep. I’m not particularly sure, but they aren’t at their best then.” “You’ve done this before
Destiny’s POVCondescending. Accusing. Judging.Those were the only ways I could describe the stares on my face.Maria had a look of satisfaction in her eyes, a glint that told me she loved every second of everything happening right now.My face was red with barely concealed anger as I glared back at the crowd. “I’m not a rogue,” I said, my voice a mix between shaky and firm.“She’s not the rogue we’re looking for, guys, trust me,” Rose defended beside me. She interlocked her fingers with mine, her hands tight on mine as if she was keeping me grounded.Something twanged in my heart and I gave her a look of surprise. She was defending me. The crowd exchanged looks, as if they were confused that the alpha’s sister was siding with someone they believed to be a villain.The elder who accused me didn’t relent, his lips were in a firm line. “Rose, move away from the female. She could be the one who hurt the pack healer, and you’re siding with her.”“Except she wasn’t actually the one who a
Destiny’s POV We were back in Rose’s room, both sitting on her bed with a map of the pack grounds between us. “Listen closely to what I have to tell you and promise me you will tell no one about this,” Rose said, her face serious. “I promise I won’t tell anyone. I just want to get out of here,” I said. She searched my eyes for a moment, those blue orbs of hers holding conflict. It seemed whatever she saw in mine convinced her as she took in a deep breath, seemingly satisfied, “There’s a slight breach on the wall on the far east of the pack.” I raised a brow, lots of questions in my mind. “Don’t ask me how I know that. You just want to get out of here, right?” she said while she avoided my eyes, her gaze lingering on the map a moment that was longer than necessary before flicking back to me. I gave a nod, “Sure.” The questions swirled around in my head, threatening to come out from my mouth. Questions like, was she the only one who knew about the breach in the wall?
Destiny’s POVMy thighs were pressed together, my back against a tree trunk while I sat on the ground, my eyes raised to the full moon.I felt a bead of sweat roll down my face. I didn't need to dress warm after all. Another throb went through my middle, the feeling of it on a borderline between pain and pleasure.I let out a groan, my voice a low mumble, “Fuck you, Alpha Theo, wherever you are. Fuck you.”I closed my eyes, taking short and quick breaths to calm myself down. It did nothing.My wolf was pacing inside me, her tail wagging in concern. She was worried for me.“I’m good. I just—” I exhaled, “I just need a minute.” More like an hour.Another throb went through me, and I couldn't help the moan that escaped me.“Fuckkkk,” I whispered-yelled. The sensation spread through me, and it was almost as if my body was crying for him.For the asshole who did this to me.I was sure my panties were soaked. Even the slight breeze that tickled my body was making my nipples hard through my
Destiny’s POVI’ve felt fear before. When I was ten and my parents were burned alive right before my eyes. I felt fear when I realized I was going to be left alone with monsters who were my pack mates. The fear I felt when I was being chased in the woods after my banishment. That kind of fear. But nothing, and I mean nothing, could compare to the terror that skidded down my spine right now. My body instantly turned to ice as a serpent appeared from behind the bushes. I could swear my heartbeat could be heard from miles away; my hands were trembling like a leaf in a storm. My wolf knew that even if I changed, I was going to be swallowed up like I was a strand of spaghetti. My breaths were shuddering, my eyes fixed on the monster. For a brief minute, I thought I might be hallucinating. That this was just one of the effects of the bite. But I didn’t hallucinate yesterday, so it couldn’t be.The snake was now several feet away from me, its tongue slithering out like a fork as it mad
Theo’s POVI was pissed, my wolf huffing and puffing inside me at the fact that she had wanted to leave. She had tried to leave last night. Tried to leave me.That was unacceptable.I wanted to punish her. To ravage her body and show her just how much of mine she was. I wanted to imprint my name on every inch of her skin so that she’d get the memo that she wasn't going anywhere.But I shouldn’t. Punishing her didn’t seem to make her want to soften up to me.Yeah, no shit. Who would?I came to the realization that things were always going to be tight between us, even if she eventually became the mother of my child, if I didn’t stop being hard on her. She was always going to keep trying to run away. To get her freedom, like she said.I almost snorted at that.She was free here. It wasn’t like I was hiding her and locking her up in a room with her hands bound or something.The image of her hands bound together, her naked body splayed on the bed, flashed through my mind.My dick stirred,
Destiny’s POV “A deal is a deal. You are starting training from tomorrow.”The silence that filled the room was one that was laced with confusion. Everyone was looking at Alpha Theo like he had grown two heads.“We don’t know her well enough for her to join a sensitive side of the pack, Alpha.” Max chipped in. “She’s just barely been here a week.”Alpha Theo’s eyes were still fixed on me, holding mine as if daring me to argue with him, “And yet she is the only one who dared to go in search of the snake and successfully retrieve its tears.”I blinked. If only he knew I had planned on escaping the pack yesterday.He looked at Max. “She has proved herself. I think it’s only fair I keep my end of the deal.” He returned his gaze to mine, something flashing in his eyes, “even if I don’t want to.”He was a man of his word. But right now, I didn’t want him to be.“If you don’t want me to join, then don’t make me,” I said to him. “I’ve changed my mind about joining.”He raised a brow, “That’s
Destiny’s POVI told Rose everything that happened last night. I told her how I followed every direction she told me to take on the map. I told her about the bite effect happening right at that moment.Her eyes went round when I got to that part, cursing at her brother.And when I reached the part of the snake showing up and tearing up, she was looking at me in wonder.“Wow.” She seemed to be at a loss for words. “I heard that getting in contact with it was so rare that it’s been centuries since one was sighted. And that it came to you only if it deemed you worthy or you’ve performed some rites.”I leaned back against her pink couch, looking confused. “But I didn’t do anything.”She was staring at me with interest, intrigue passing in her eyes. “Or maybe, it just deemed you worthy.”“Worthy of what?”She shrugged. “Who knows? The goddess has a mind of its own.” She paused. “Then if the tears didn’t heal the bite effect, what exactly did it do? What was the point of the snake showing u
Destiny’s POV“Yes, I’m challenging you.”There was something sizzling beneath my skin, it was slowly growing inside me. Something that didn’t feel… like me. It grew as if its sole aim was to take over my body. My very soul.“Your priorities are misplaced if you think you’re going to take me down,” Maria said, tilting her head to the side, a dismissive smirk at the corner of her lips. “You know there’s a reason I’m the head of enforcers.” Her gaze drifted to the silent park, a hint of pride flashing in her eyes. “I’ve handled threats you wouldn’t even know existed. I’ve led patrols and kept this park safe where others would have failed. I’ve won challenges that proved my strength here.”Her eyes flickered back to me, looking me up and down with disdain. “It seems you’re confusing finding some portion for strength. Whatever you’re doing here is clearly a waste of my time, little girl.” Her expression looked more and more arrogant. “As much as I’d like to ruin that disgusting face of yo
Destiny’s povMaria’s blonde hair was pulled back in a messy ponytail. She had on a tank top and joggers, her skin glistening with sweat as if she had just finished training or had been out jogging. Either way, she looked pissed.“I’m going to ask again because it seems no one heard me as I’m not hearing any answers. What is going on here?” Her sharp voice filled the air.Elder Shane spoke, shifting on his feet. “Destiny helped the pack by getting the Shadowscale tears for our Elara. We are just expressing our gratitude as a pack.”I could swear I heard Maria’s teeth grinding against each other.“So what now? That she somehow found a little potion that means she is one of us now?” Her voice was bitter. “That means you all get to treat her like you’ve known her all your life and not the rogue that she could possibly be?”I raised an eyebrow. Really? Was she really going to do this in front of these people?Elder Shane looked like he didn’t know what to say.“Don’t be like that, Maria,”
Destiny’s POVThere were a lot of things I felt that I was pretty sure were understandable to anyone watching from the outside. Things like my need to leave the Venus pack and survive on my own. Things like my distrust for anyone who came my way or pretty much looked in my direction because of how I grew up. Everyone had been out to get me. Everyone that crossed my path hated me, which was why it was understandable I felt that way. But what I didn’t understand right now was the way my body tingled when I saw the huge bulge in Alpha Theo’s grey jeans. Even with the fact that I’d already climaxed and the bite's effect was clearly gone. I had to hold myself from licking my lips, but for the life of me, I couldn’t bring myself to take my eyes away from it. Even with the construction of his jeans, it still looked huge. Just how big was he? He cleared his throat, and that snapped my attention from his crotch, my face burning as I looked up at him, seeing his heated eyes hold slight am
Destiny’s POVI had always wondered what sex felt like growing up. I’d read books and had tried to get myself off a few occasions when the usual horniness of an adolescent shifter kicked in, but I never once got myself off. You would think it would have been easy as a werewolf to get laid, the easiest thing for our kind since we were sexual creatures by nature. Well, not for me.Being an outcast of my former pack also meant I was off-limits for any kind of sexual activity. As if I had some kind of disease they didn’t want to contract.Now, it made me wonder if this feeling was what I had been missing out on. This feeling of ecstasy. Pure, toe curling ecstasy.Alpha Theo’s fingers were slowly circling my clit, his gaze fixed on mine, drinking in every slight reaction I gave, every buckle, every movement of my lips. It was like he was trying to memorize every detail of me.But he was too damn slow. I needed him to ravage me, not fucking tease me.“Can you go faster?” I moaned out, thru
Destiny’s POVMy body was fully heated. Being close to Alpha Theo was almost like torture.Another aching throb went through me, and this time, I doubled over, bringing my legs to my chest, my thighs pressed tightly together.Alpha Theo kept staring down at me as if he was enjoying the show.If my eyes could shoot lasers, I was sure he would have been dead by now with the way I was glaring at him.“Fine,” I gritted out, moving my hands underneath my hoodie and bringing out the bottle of tears, thankful that it was still there.Surprise flickered in the alpha’s eyes when I reached out the golden embroidered bottle to him, the doubt clearing from his eyes. “You really found the snake,” he said with a slight bit of awe in his tone.I gave him a smug look, thankful to the goddess that he believed me. “I told you to try me.”He took the bottle from me, studying its body with intrigue. “It’s exactly how it looks in the ancient books,” he mumbled, more to himself than to me.Another throb ri
Destiny’s POVI was resting against the headboard of the infirmary bed, the mattress a bit hard under my ass. But that was the last thing I was worried about right now.Aloha Theo was standing at the foot of the bed, staring straight at me, his eyes hard, his jaw clenching. “Would you care to explain to me why you were found unconscious in the middle of the woods?”Rose, who was behind him, shifted on her feet, trying to tell me something with her eyes.“Don’t look at Rose. I’m the one talking to you.”My gaze snapped to his, and my breath hitched. Not because he looked every bit hot in the dark sweatshirt he was wearing, but because his gray eyes held thunder. One wrong word and only the goddess knew what was going to happen to the remains of my body when he was done with me, that I was sure.I averted my gaze from his, my heart hammering hard in my chest. “Uhmm…”“I think we should leave her to rest, Theo. I mean, look at her, she looks like she needs it.” Rose squirmed nervously, t
