The enemies around me.

"Back the fuck up", I said as strongly as I could possibly make my voice sound. My mind was conflicted and swirling with lust, desire, and guilt. The thought of betraying my pack weighed heavily on my conscience, but there was no denying the elecrtic pull I felt between us,or the warmth spreading between my legs as I stared into his scorching eyes."Is that any way to address your Alpha?", Grayson said as he stalked closer towards me. His eyes a whirpool of Emerald and black. "You're not my Aplha!" I cried. As I went to turn away a huge hand grabbed me by my wrist. "DON'T TOUCH ME" I shrieked.Grayson cupped his hand between my legs, a hot pang of desire hit my core. "Your words tell me one thing, but your body betrays you. Your pussy wouldn't be this wet ifyou truly wanted me to leave, now look at me". I struggled to avoid his searing gaze, but obediently my eyes tur

Marnie lived a few streets away from me. Her home was modest and clean but full of warmth. Marnie was an only child and her parents were both hard workers, but somehow always had time for their girl. They had always made me feel welcome over the years, going so far as to call me their second child. The house was empty which wasn't unusual so we strolled down the hall to Marnies bedroom, I confessed that I was aware of the BBQ my mum had planned. While she looked slightly disappointed in losing the element of surprise, she also noticeably relaxed as she explained how we would save getting all dolled up for later on tonight. I think the real source of her relaxation is seeing that I am ok with celebrating tonight, I can tell she would be crushed if I was ungrateful or not interested in going. After a quick shower Marnie pulled out an overnight bag and in it was a black and white striped t-shirt dress and my favorite pair of converse for me to wear. I was reli

As I watched the bodies that had been crowded around me part to create a walkway, I stood breathless as the most beautiful man I had ever seen walked straight towards me. He had to be the most enormous man I had ever seen, at a guess I would say he's 6'5. His muscular frame had a warm, sun-kissed glow, and peeping out from his black t-shirt was some form of tribal tattoo that went up to his right bicep and disappeared underneath. I wanted to tear off his shirt and follow where the tattoo lead, tracing every line delicately as I investigated his body further. As my eyes wandered upwards I let out a quiet gasp as I was staring into a pair of the most brilliant emerald green eyes I had ever seen. They shined so brightly, I felt like I could never be lost in the dark so long as I had those eyes next to me. His gaze set me alight, though I was in a crowded nightclub and had just been dancing, I knew the heat radiating from my body was purely from him. I had never felt such a sudden desir

My palms were sweaty and I was starting to form a migraine as I sat back down in the couch area. My nerves were slightly calmed as I could feel no sense of animosity coming from the huge man. If they were planning some sort of attack on me surely I would have felt something in the air? Though, I knew nearly nothing about these people and wasn't sure how to read them. Shortly after returning from the bathroom, Alpha Grayson appeared once again, h

Marnie drove in silence as she took me back to where Alpha Grayson was waiting for me. I had never seen her so quiet, it was as if a ghost was sitting beside me and not my best friend. As we came closer to the border Marnie pulled over, I could see the Alpha's car ahead, his headlights on as if to lead me through the dark. Marnie turned to look at me, her face was stained with mascara from her tears. She looked completely defeated as she pulled me into a tight embrace."Laila, I am so sorry", she whispered into my neck."I know". I held on to my friend, I sent her waves of pure love. I hoped she would understand that this wasn't her fault, she couldn't be blamed for what my destiny had in store for me.As I pulled away from our embrace I could feel a tingle in my chest, it was as if I was being beckoned toward the Alpha, our mate bond growing as it could sense we're close to one another. I stepped out of the car and into the headlights glow, taking
