Elias unlocks the front door and drops the bags to switch on a light to behold a spacious, open plan, living area with a magnificent open fireplace, all setup and ready to be lit. There are fresh flowers on the kitchen counter, lilies, my favourite.
"Oo, fire?" Elias suggests, picking up our bags I nod,"Okay, I'll go quickly unpack," heading for what I'm guessing is the bedrooms. For an alpha's holiday home, it's a modest size as I discover there's only one bedroom with an ensuite the size of a second. As I enter the sleeping quarters my jaw falls open at the site of the biggest bed I've ever seen, it must be a super king. Wow. We didn't bring a lot, so it takes me no time to unpack our clothes and drop our bags under the bed. Only our toiletries now, as I go through to the ensuite and inspect it more closely, I notice the waterfall shower head, larger than I thought you could ever get and a bathtub with ... is that jets? Can't wait to use the bath or shower for that fact.Chilli POV Elias pulls me into him, holding me from behind in my semi awake state, by the dim light just visible through the blind, I can tell it's early morning. I purr at the embrace as a hand trails down, fishing around my knickers, 'mmm,' I think to myself, 'please don't tease' I pray, hoping to be played with. A gasp leaves my lips when his searching fingers start fiddling and fumbling around until they find the right spot earning a groan as I push into his hand. My hand slips behind me and between us, where I'm surprised to find him already so stiff. Awkwardly, I rub my hand up and down, finding it hard with him pressing up against my ass, finding it tricky to concentrate with the brilliant job he is doing in my underwear. The enjoyment ends when his hand withdraws to pull my hand away from his morning glory, a whining noise filters from me as he moves my hand between my legs, placing it where his just was. Knowing what he wants, I continue where he left off, as he d
Sam POV Through the crowd of people finishing their breakfast, I just catch a glimpse of Erin and Leroy heading out with sombre expressions. Giving Regina a sideways look to see her business face on, meaning our working day has started a little earlier than expected, although, as the leaders of this pack, we are always on duty, I suppose. With a stretch, I get up from the table and collect our mugs to place on the trolly of dirties going around the hall and head to my office with Kay and Regina in tow.Once in my office and behind closed doors, I ask, pulling my chair out behind my desk and dropping down into it, "come on then, what is it?" Like the next generation, we are all extremely close. It's what happens when you've grown up together and lived so close to each other our whole lives. We know each other as well as we know ourselves if not better. "Update from the station, Maria is out on bail," she tells us, taking a seat in front of my desk as Kay sits
Standing on the steps to the packhouse, I feel slightly nervous and hesitant, reaching for the door nob, I shake off the feeling. This is my home too, and no one can keep me from it. As I start to turn the handle, the sound of disturbed gravel echoes from behind me, looking back over my shoulder I see two figures running at me. The closer they get I can see it's Erin and Leroy."Excuse me, you can't just ... Logan?" Erin calls out at me, skidding to a stop at the foot of the steps, sharing a look of surprise and shock at my presence it seems. "Can't just what?" I question the little children,"Is the alpha expecting you?" "Expecting me?" I laugh, "I am this packs beta! Your beta! I fucking live here!" an awkward expression glooms on their faces at my outburst."Even so, we need to check before letting you go any further." "Check? ... " Staring at them in disbelief, "fuck this!" Launching the door open, ignoring their objections as I storm up the stair
Chilli POV Lowering my chest to the ground, sniffing the moist grass and damp leaves, feeling them under my paws as I kneed at the ground. My tail sways in the breeze which carries the chill of the lake nearby, and my pointy ears twitch with every russel, every twig snapping. In the far distance, a bee searches the wildflowers for nectar, as I watch, I am lost in the beautiful movement of its delicate wings, forgetting for a brief moment what I am doing. Regaining my concentration, I welcome my wolf instincts to aid me in finding my prize. The world around me falls silent and still, as I slow my breathing and heart rate to become at one with my surroundings. Ignoring the rippling of the lake's surface as a fish comes up for air, ignoring the flapping of wings in the trees above, ignoring all other scents and just focusing on finding the one, a sound, a ... there! I push off, launching myself forward into a canter and after a large, dark blur to the right of me. In his has
Handing me a towel Elias says,"I'll start running the shower, it can take a few minutes to warm up sometimes,"Wrapping it around myself, I snuggle into it getting lost in the heavenly feel, this is what I imagine a cloud would feel like. "Meet you in there?" He laughs, knowing I'm not really listening as he disappears inside. "Hey, hun, your phone is ringing," Elias calls, "wow, shit Chilli," he gasps as I join him inside but he's nowhere to be seen,"Elias?""Bedroom." I walk in to find Elias holding my cell phone, handing it to me, his face full of utter bewilderment."If it's an unknown caller, I saw it earlier but something fel..." my words fall away as I look at the illuminated screen, "what the...?" I stare, unable to blink, sixty-plus missed calls and nearly as many texts, all from the same withheld number. "Holy crap," verbalising my thoughts."Someone sure wants to get ahold of you," he says, stating the obvious, "but who?" My eyes widen when it im
Sam POV "See," Logan smiles, " I was right, everything is fine.""No Logan," I growl at him, "you were wrong! I told you Maria wouldn't listen to you! Of course she wouldn't, if she thought there was even the smallest chance of getting you back, that it would help her get you back, she'd do it.""So she called a few times and sent some texts, okay, yes, she didn't listen but everyone is okay," he shrugs it off like it's not a big deal."Not the point Logan," I snap. "Do you even care?" "Of course I do!" Raising his voice slightly at me, finally showing some other emotion apart from bloody humour."Well then show it!" I stop myself from truly losing my temper as I start to calm myself, "you want back in? To stay with this pack? Continue to be my beta?" The colour drains from his face, I'm guessing he never thought he'd hear these words aimed at him coming from me, I don't think he realised how far he has push it, how much he'd fucked up until right this
The next dayLeaning in the doorway of the ensuite as I watch the most beautiful and important person to me in the world, pack our bags."Here," I say, handing her our toiletries with a kiss on the cheek,"Thanks huni," putting them in our respective bags, "that's everything.""Are you sure?" I ask her."Yes, I think so," she says, doing a third mental checklist, "Yep, that's everything," zipping them closed."Great," picking up the bags and taking them out to the car, Chilli follows but lingers at the door, looking downhearted. "It's okay Chilli, I told you will be back," her puppy dog eyes beam down at me from the decking, "I promise," she smiles at me and descends the steps to join me by the car, embracing me. I hold her tight, inhaling her sweet scent, "I know you are worried and hesitant about heading home, but it will all be okay," I soothe her, stroking her long, silky hair, "whatever father has planned will be in your best interest, he wouldn't d
"Yes, but the others feared them and what they could do, it was the time of the witch hunts and sadly some were mistaken for being witches. Even some werewolf packs were hesitant of them, whereas others praised and worshipped them. It was a messy, complicated time. The depictions of their wolf forms are incredible in size and colours, of golds, reds etc. my point is if I'm right then you have more strength and power than any of us." We sit in silence, digesting father's words, his crazy words when he pulls out a book, earmarked at a certain page to reveal a hand-sketched picture, surrounded by foreign text."Chilli," I gasp, "it's your wolf form, your colouring of red, golden flecks, it looks so much like your wolf." Chilli stares on, speechless."After that day when I saw your power in person and up close, it got me thinking and reminded me of the old stories my grandfather would tell me about when I was a kid. He'd tell me stories about these fantastic creatures and
