TYSON
If I were being completely honest, it was nice being away from my pack for once. That place could be so suffocating most of the time. I mean, my grandfather was a complete dick, and my dad wasn't much better. It's like they say, alphas always have to be in charge, and more than one alpha is volatile—an explosion just waiting to go off. In the case of my pack, there were three of us, which made the whole thing pretty combustible. I'm actually surprised we hadn't battled it to the death yet.
Granted, things weren’t exactly smooth sailing coming to Alpha Blake's pack either. We were still two alphas with competing personalities, but it was better than dealing with my father and grandfather. Blake was pretty reasonable and wasn't hell-bent on making my life miserable. Although, I'm pretty sure Blake wanted nothing to do with me coming to his pack to "check things out". But he was desperate to make his mate's family happy, so he agreed to the arrangement for the summer. That worked out great for me—I got a vacation from my family and I had some things I had to take care of on the east coast anyway.
I was technically supposed to be reviewing all of Blake's training programs and warriors to make sure they were up to par. But I didn't really give a shit. I was much more interested in getting some fresh pussy.
I couldn't lie, Blake's pack had some really nice pussy. I hadn't been here long but already met plenty of girls that were more than willing to spread their legs for an alpha. That guy must have really slain before he met my cousin. These girls were so slutty, especially for religious girls, and especially compared to my pack which was a lot stricter and more conservative. Girls back home at least liked to pretend they were pure. Challenges were fun, but there was something so sweet about a girl who was easy.
I loved uninhibited girls, especially if they were thick and curvy. That's the other thing—I liked a little cushion for the pushin' as they say. I loved meeting a woman with T and A, and thighs I could grab onto. Goddess, was there anything nicer than that, than a woman who could keep you warm all night?
One Saturday night, in mid-May, while in my wolf form, I was deep in thought about such intellectual subject matters when a familiar scent cut through the woodsy scent of pine, moss, and wet wood, and entered my nostrils. It both delighted and infuriated me simultaneously. If I had to be honest, it was the kind of scent someone dreamed about, better than anything I'd ever smelled before—a sweet, musky scent, maybe patchouli or cinnamon; no, something very unique. Some sort of amazing perfume that I had to know the name of. But it also reminded me of the biggest bitch I'd ever met in my life—the cunt that had been wearing it the day I first smelled it.
Still, I followed the fragrance, intoxicated by it, wondering where it was coming from, completely distracting me from my run of the patrol stations I was supposed to be doing. It led me through the woods until I spotted her—her strawberry blonde hair and pale skin illuminated by the moonlight, completely naked. Not wanting to approach her in that state, I instead acted like a creepy peeping Tom and hid behind some pine trees, my eyes unable to leave her body. Shit. If there was a perfect female body that existed, I was suddenly in presence of it. Her ass was big and round—better than ones I'd seen in rap music videos and on I*******m models. Her tits were spectacular—probably too large for even my large hands to handle. And she had a perfect hourglass shape, with a soft belly that dipped inwards on the sides, proportionate to her thick, beautiful thighs and hips—the types of hips I could just imagine grabbing onto as I took her from behind.
Goddess, as infuriating as she was, she was also completely mesmerizing. I didn't know why she had ended up here, completely bare in the middle of the woods at midnight, but, Goddess, what a sight. This had to be a dream. I had never seen such a perfect woman in my life.
And—fuck—I was such a creep, just staring at her, unable to avert my eyes. It wasn’t like me to do this. Yes, I was a horn dog, but I wasn't the type that did things without consent. I'd been raised better than that. I had a mom and a sister. And if some creep was staring at one of them like I was at her at that moment, they'd be lucky to be alive.
I was about to turn away when she suddenly fell to her knees, the metallic smell of blood blowing toward me and drawing my eyes to a red stream trickling from her nose. What was happening to her? Tears spilled from her eyes, an agonized expression on her face, and her limbs trembling.
Without thinking, I rushed to her, needing to make sure she was okay. Something deep within me compelled me. I was no longer myself but my wolf, my protector instincts in full gear.
Unable to mindlink with someone not in my pack, I quickly shifted into my human form, got down on my knees, and pulled her body toward mine, cradling her. "Are you okay?" I asked, locking eyes with hers.
Her hazel eyes widened, and her mouth fell open, a quiet gasp fleeing her mouth. It didn't escape me that we were both completely naked while I was holding her in a very intimate way, the clammy skin of her torso against mine.
"Please don't hurt me," she cried out, her eyelids sagging. Something about holding her felt so natural and so perfect that I almost forgot how much she'd pissed me off that day I'd met her and she'd called me a chipmunk fucker. I mean, seriously, who does that? And who the fuck would say that to an alpha? But now she was so vulnerable, I found myself both deeply sympathetic to her situation and oddly endeared.
"We need to go to the clinic." My heart beat frantically, a protective feeling emerging from deep within.
"No!" she screamed out, feebly pushing her palms against my chest.
"You're hurt though," I tried to reason with her.
"Please don't take me to the clinic," she slurred. "Please. My mom's best friend is a nurse there and she'll know."
"Know what?"
"Please, just leave me here. I'll be okay."
"I can't just leave you." As I said that, her eyes drooped closed and her body went limp in my arms. I checked to make sure she was still breathing. Should I follow her request? As I weight the pros and cons, I noticed a jar on the ground next to us. I stretched my arm out to bring it to my nose and smelled it, but was unable to distinguish what it was. Some sort of plant maybe? Nothing I'd ever smelled before. Had she eaten whatever had been inside?
I sighed to myself. There was clearly something she didn't want her mom to know. I could relate, constantly keeping secrets from my own overbearing parents. In the end, I decided to just take her back to the packhouse, not knowing where else I could bring her. Certainly, her wolf would heal her of whatever ailment had been inflicted on her.
I found her clothes laying on a rock nearby, which I put back on her. As I slid her panties up her thighs, I again felt like such a creep, especially as I couldn't help but be completely turned on by what I was doing. But, still, I had to get points for being a gentleman. I had dressed her. Certainly, it would have been much worse had I left her naked.
I shifted back into my wolf form, and flipped her on my back into a wolfman's carry, running her back to the packhouse. Everyone was already asleep when I got there. Not knowing where else to deposit her, I brought her into my room and placed her on the guestroom bed. I then wet a washcloth and gently wiped the blood from her face that had trickled out of her nose. She did have a very beautiful face, with cute little freckles dotting her nose and pouty pink lips—very kissable lips.
While indoors, her perfume penetrated the air around me, so much stronger like the first time I saw her. When she woke, I'd have to ask her what it was. It had to be the most amazing thing I'd ever smelled. I leaned closer, getting a good sniff of her neck, and then forced myself to walk away. I had to stop being creepy, taking advantage of a passed-out girl. I mean, seriously, I was a lot of things, but a rapist was not one of them.
I then sprinted back out of the packhouse, and continued my patrol run, not able to stop thinking about her. I'd never obsessed over someone so much in my life. Even after that day in that witch shop. After all that shit she'd spat at me—normally I just forgot someone worthless like that immediately. But something about her had buried itself within me, her words cutting much deeper than they definitely should have. And now—fuck! Now I wanted nothing more than to, well, bury my cock inside her, fuck her in every position that was physically possible, defile her amazing body, come on her size G tits (oh, did I mention I snuck a peek at her bra size—yep, total creep! But holy shit, I didn't even know such a bra size existed!).
And as much as my whole body was begging for me to crawl into bed with her when I got back, I stayed the gentlemanly course, and instead crawled onto the alpha living room couch, falling asleep there. But not before my hand found its way to my cock, rock hard from the evening. I rubbed it vigorously, playing out all my fantasies in my mind. And when I came onto my abs, wiping it off with one of my socks, it wasn't long before the dirty thoughts entered my mind again.
The only thing I knew for sure was that this fucking infuriating man-hating bitch had gotten me obsessed and horny as hell in a way no other woman ever had.
THERESA The excitement in the air was palpable. The whole pack had gathered on the airplane runway. This was the one part of the pack that was consistently plowed so that we’d continue to receive food and supplies throughout the harsh winters after we gave up on plowing everything else, especially the roads that lead to the main highway. It was how I was able to get back and forth from school during the holidays. Full moon runs were a long-time tradition of our pack’s and one of my favorite celebrations during the long, cold, sunless winters. Even when seasonal depression tried to sink its way into my bones and pull my spirit away, these runs tended to give me the adrenaline I needed to keep going. There was something magical about an entire community coming together to expel all their energy in the wilderness, and then subsequently feast together on the kill we’d contributed to the celebration. My heart was full of gratitude in knowing that no matter how tough things got, this pac
TYSON‘Twas several nights after the winter solstice (and one night after Christmas) when all through the packhouse, not a creature was stirring, not even a mouse. And thank the Goddess for that, because we weren’t really big fans of mice around here. At least I wasn’t. Although, I had come to warm up to rats… well, some very specific pet rats. Other than that, still wasn’t a big fan.But you know what I was a fan of? T&A, especially when that T&A was attached to my perfect, voluptuous, thick AF fiancée and mate. My mate that was very conspicuously missing from my bed. I had gotten used to having her warm body next to mine every night, and every inch of my skin was practically tingling with the loss of her. Because her family was very religious, it had been decided that we would stay in separate housing situations during the duration of our trip to her old pack. She at her parents’ home, and I at the packhouse of my ally, the Midnight Maple Pack.I knew she planned to go back to school
GINGER“Okay, I really thought the people out tonight wouldn’t be so… old,” Lucy said.I sighed but figured I should just make the best of it. Maybe once I got back to Alaska I could meet some friends that knew how to party for real. Not that there were many places to go out in the middle of nowhere where I lived. And it was so strictly conservative too. More so than the pack I’d grown up in, which was saying something.“Here, take these!” Lucy handed Paige and me fake IDs that, as usual, looked nothing like us. She then draped about a pound of penis necklaces on everyone.We all marched in, and everyone’s eyes instantly went to us. Lucy made a beeline for the bar and started ordering us drinks before anyone could protest. I followed her, excited to get my drink on. The bar was playing my favorite Mariah Carey Christmas song, and I was ready to start dancing.After we all had our drinks in hand, an older man with a grey beard asked, “What is this all about? A birthday?”I blinked a few
GINGERMy twin sister Paige finished twisting the last bit of my hair around her curling wand and sprayed it down with hairspray. "I miss this." She let out a deep sigh, sitting back on her heels, her body collapsing a bit. We had gathered on the floor of her bedroom while getting ready for the evening—the bedroom that wouldn’t be hers much longer. She would be the last to flee the coop, leaving our parents to an empty nest—something our mother couldn’t stop being melodramatic about. Her wedding was in a matter of days, which was the reason I had flown back to Vermont with my mate Tyce."It's not that much different from when I was in school," I replied, my stomach squeezing a bit, but needing to put a positive spin on our situation."Yeah, but you were at least home for the entire summer then. Now I'll probably only see you a week a year or something like that."Nonchalantly, I blurted, "Maybe the family can move to Alaska." At first, I meant it as an offhand remark that I knew wasn’t
NIKOLAI"Za zdarovye," Sasha and I toasted each other, and I took a gulp of the vodka. After piling our kill in a shed the pack had for exactly that, he invited me over to the beta wing of the packhouse to throw back a few."Not bad, eh?" he asked."Not bad," I replied.He gave my shoulder a shake. "Hey, Volkov, loosen up. Life's getting better. We're free now."I grunted.Sasha was my good friend going back to when we were pups. People had always remarked we could pass for brothers. They clearly lacked keen eyes. Sure, we both sported thick blond hair and tall frames—although I had at least a good ten centimeters on him—our facial shapes were much different. His was more rotund, and his cheeks constantly reddened with emotion.My features were far sharper, and hardened, and had become even more so in the past year. At times, I looked in the mirror, and I saw my late father staring back at me. His ghost haunted me from the beyond, shaping my features to mimic the forehead furrows, life
NIKOLAIForty. That's how many pack members were left in Severnaya Zvezda Pack, including me. A nice, even forty. Our pack had never been particularly large. As opposed to some packs in Russia and other post-Soviet states, where numbers could climb to ten thousand, ours had always maintained a balance of around a thousand. Now only scraps remained of what we had been.After months of coordinating with my late beta’s aunt, Julia Tikaani (née Yulia Vovchenko), we had finally arrived at her pack. When we first fled our war-torn home, we traveled in our wolf forms, carrying only what we could carry as we crossed into Moldova. From there, it took nearly three days by air to reach Alaska.We had left just about everything behind, and a sliver of hope remained.As generous as Luna Yulia’s invitation was, we couldn’t depend on her hospitality forever. Our pack needed stability—a place to truly call home. With my newly elected beta, Sasha, at my side—a man as ruthless in battle as I was—I set o
