DPOV I straightened in my seat and stared him right in the eyes before answering. "Yes, sir," I responded. His eyes narrowed further, but I maintained eye contact. I heard Alberta gasp and the room tensed further. "Daughter?" I heard Rose mumble quietly beside me. I watched as Abe's eyes widened in realization of what he had done. I would have laughed as fear swept over his face if not for the fact that I was in trouble myself. You could hear the gulp as Abe looked toward Alberta for help, but I knew she wasn't going to give him any. My eyes were trained on Abe, keeping the threat in my line of sight. There wasn't really much he could do other than using his magic, but I wasn't going to give him the opportunity to retaliate. "You're a brave man, Belikov." I heard Alberta mutter. Rose had slowly risen from her seat and had begun to pace in the space behind us. I watched Abe's head swivel back and forth as he followed the movement. I think, like me, he was waiting for her to explode
RPOV We returned to Alberta's office, still in wolf form. The normally spacious office was dwarfed when our massive bodies entered. Abe looked a little worried, but I wasn't sure if it was because we were giant beasts or if he was worried about me. "Are you alright, Rose?" Alberta asked after Dimitri had closed the door with his tail. I sat back on my haunches while Dimitri stood behind me protectively. Now that he knew the threat was against me, there was no way that I could get him to relax. "I'll get there. Do we know for a fact that there isn't a threat against Lissa?" I asked, looking at Abe for my answer. "Absolutely sure, well, not from these Strigoi anyway. She is still a Princess, there's going to be a threat no matter what, but she's safe inside the wards." "Is Roza safe within the wards?" Dimitri asked. "Probably not. The Strigoi, sadly, have the ability to manipulate even the strongest of people. Rose is probably in more danger inside the wards than outside. Outside t
DPOV I'd finished making Roza and myself lunch but with a lot of effort. I had to keep myself focused on the cooking food in front of me rather than my Alpha who was lounging in a chair in just my shirt. Her long legs were draped over the armrest barely covered by the fabric, one hand twirling her long hair around her fingers. She was reading one of her serial killer books and occasionally chuckled before falling silent again. After using all of my self-control, I finished cooking our stir-fry. I'd discovered if I fed Roza Chinese food, she's much more willing to allow my close proximity. I sat a bowlful of stir-fry on the coffee table in front of her and pulled the book out of her hands. I stuck her bookmark in the page she was on and ignored her glare as I moved away from her. Her glare vanished as her eyes fell on the food in front of her. "Thanks, Comrade!" She chirped, picking up her chopsticks and digging in. I quickly moved to put on clothes as her moans of approval drifted
RPOV I could feel him staring at me from across the room. Dimitri's eyes had been practically glued to my ass all night. If it wasn't his eyes, it was his hands. He was taking the guarding thing very seriously, almost too seriously for my liking. I loved that he was dedicated to protecting me, but I wanted him by my side all night. I'd begged him for an hour before he danced with me, and it was only one dance before he returned to his 'post' on the edge of the dance floor. Abe's Guardians were meandering throughout the room, trying to act like normal Guardians when they were really just keeping an eye on me and my surroundings. Dimitri wasn't even trying to hide his guarding style. He was very blatantly watching me. It was a protective gaze, but I could feel it turn more and more hungry as the night progressed. "Are you ready to get me out of this dress, yet, Comrade? After all, I bought this dress specifically so you could take it off." I said looking over at him across the dance
DPOV The flight to Russia was long. I'd spent the first few hours in an anxious state that Rose has desperately trying to calm. Eventually, she'd laid her head in my lap and pulled out her book to read. I pulled out my own, trying to focus on the printed words. When reading didn't work, I opted for the repetitive, soothing action of running my hands through Rose's hair. She practically purred as my fingers scrapped her scalp and ran the entire length of her hair. With a smile on my face, I leaned my head back and fell into a much-needed slumber. When I awoke, we were half an hour from decent and my hand was still running through Rose's hair. She'd put her book away at some point and was also waking from her nap. "Did you sleep well, Roza?" I smiled down at her as she stretched. "I would have slept better if you would have allowed me to get up and move to the couch, but every time I tried to move you'd growl at me." She said lovingly. "Sorry?" I said. "No, you aren't." Roza retur
RPOV My clothes had long been taken care of. Dimitri had my shirt off before the door closed completely, and my pants were quick to follow. I'm pretty sure that my bra and panties were in pieces on the floor, but I was too focused on Dimitri to really care. Dimitri hadn't given me a chance to get any of his clothes off of him so he was still fully dressed. Before I could voice the inequality, Dimitri had picked me up and thrown me on the bed. I squealed as I bounced on the plush mattress. I tried to go to him, but he quickly pushed me back down. His name was on the tip of my tongue, ready to scold him for denying me my right to touch his naked body when it died as two of his fingers entered me roughly. He growled at my wetness and slammed his lips into mine before my scream could come out. His tongue forced its way into my mouth, and I moaned at the warm sensation. His thumb was pressing gently into my clit, pulsing every few seconds causing me to squirm. He slowly withdrew his fin
DPOV I can't believe she left me here tied to the bed. I could hear her humming in the shower and tried to control my body as the thought of hot water running down her hot body invaded my mind. "Roza," I growled again. "Yes, Comrade?" She asked as her laughter drifted into the bedroom. "Could you come untie me so I can join you in that shower?" "Nah, you enjoyed yourself last night, I'm enjoying myself now." "I seem to remember you enjoying yourself, too." I retorted. "You're going to be enjoying yourself soon." She said. I looked down my body toward the bathroom door as I heard the shower turn off. The longer I waited for Roza to come out, the harder I became. By the time she emerged, completely naked, I was standing tall. "You excited to see me?" She smirked eyeing my dick hungrily, causing me to growl. "Roza, if you don't get on my dick and ride me soon, I'll probably end up breaking this headboard," I growled pulling at the belt that bound my hands. "I had no intention o
RPOV "You can't keep me locked up forever, Comrade." I sighed. "No, but I can until you turn eighteen." He responded immediately. "Besides, I like keeping you locked up." "You're playing a dangerous game, Comrade," I growled up at him. We'd finished our meeting with our pack and Abe, but Dimitri and I had remained on the floor in the dining room. My body was wrapped around him as he sat in between my front paws. "You enjoyed it, admit it. You enjoyed releasing control to me. Putting your pleasure in my hands." He purred in my mind. The chuckle that rumbled in his chest counteracted the growl that rumbled in mine. "Admit it." "I refuse," I responded stubbornly. "I can always get you to admit it." He mused. I lifted my head out of his lap and looked down at him. Before I knew what was happening, Dimitri had moved onto my back. I craned my neck as far back as I could and saw him just lying there. "What are you doing?" I asked confused. His body was just as long as my back as he lai
