[Training II] SEBASTIAN The following morning, Sierra and I met in the ring for her second day of training. Yesterday had gone better than I imagined. Although she hadn’t fought before, she had a determination I’d only seen in my fighters, and I loved that about her. Humans had no business fighting or training with werewolves, but my mate always seized the opportunity to impress me. To be honest, I didn't expect her to show up this morning. This was not a case of me being a jerk. It was reality. "Yesterday was a warm-up. From today onward, your training will only get more intense, but not too quickly. I won't want you to hurt yourself." I stated. Sierra nodded. I could already see the fire burning in her eyes, ready to kick my ass. That day wouldn't be today, though. She still had a long way to go. *** Yesterday, after Rory and Kimberly left my office, that hardened exterior she showed to our beta couple broke down and Sierra started sobbing. "I'm scared, Sebastian," she dec
[Movie and Popcorn]SIERRA"What?" I screeched in disbelief. "I would have you know that those romantic comedies have kept me from giving up on love and humanity at one point or another, Mr. I don't want to watch romantic comedies." I mocked.Shaking my head, I proceeded to get the remote and turned on the 32" flat screen mounted on the wall at the foot of my bed. Flipping through, I noticed there were a few added amenities, such as Netflix, along with other networks to keep me occupied during boring days. We had cable back home. My parents could never afford a smart TV and trust me, it didn't bother me in the least. It was as if all the things I wished I had as a kid eventually became meaningless the older I got."Ha-ha and I would have you know that horror films would become your new favorite genre once you've seen a few," disclosed Sebastian with a wide toothy grin. "Although I have to admit, there are a few that leave much to be desired, while others completely nail the horror sp
[A Missing Bryanna] SEBASTIAN After Sierra had taken a shower to soothe her aching muscles, she joined me in my office to have lunch. Despite her being here almost a week now, she was still somewhat shy of the pack members and their welcoming nature. She would adapt but with time. Another thing I admired about my mate was her willingness to try. Afterward, we both sat down to do different tasks. I sat behind my desk to work on some reports that needed my utmost attention while she sprawled out on the couch with the laptop on her stomach, perusing online for brand-new office furniture. Currently, her office was in the process of renovations. Merely a few changes from what Sasha had requested from the décor my mother had when she was Luna. It was something everyone did when they took their new positions, whether Luna or Alpha. We had different tastes from the previous leaders, so it was a prerequisite. I had to do it after I took over as Alpha and now, she had to. Even though she wa
[Suspicious Activities] SIERRA I slammed the door to Sebastian’s office and stormed away, simmering. How could he talk down to me like that? As if I was one of his Omegas or subjects? "Oooh!" I grunted, hands balled into fists as I stomped through the foyer and out of the house. A rush of fresh air caressed my face but did nothing to alleviate the wrath warming my insides. I needed to cool my head. My mouth always had a way of popping off, saying dumb things without thinking. A stroll around the pack should help, rather than saying something I would regret. My feet carried me to the rear of the house, a short distance away from the training arena as well as prying ears and eyes. The last thing I needed was for anyone to assume I was a petulant child for airing my frustrations. An office. Why did I need an office? More like a frickin cell. He expected me to spend eight hours or more behind a desk doing what? This was why I worked in a bar. I always hated the idea of feeling trappe
[Suspicious Activities II] SIERRA Dr. Logan stepped past us, opened the door, and kept it open. He ushered Sebastian and me inside, instructed us to take a seat, then closed the door before he rounded his desk. "I have coffee, tea, and water. What can I offer you?" My gaze traveled over his office. It contained everything a doctor would need: a standard C-shaped desk piled high with papers and a computer, a gray leather chair, and a file cabinet. Framed certificates lined the wall behind him, while the wall to his right had four large bay windows with views of the parking lot and the ocean. "Doctor, if you don’t mind, can we get down to business, please? I need to know what happened to my mother," I voiced, clasping my hand around Sebastian when he slipped his hand into mine. "My apologies," Dr. Logan apologized and sat behind his desk. He raked through a few files he'd dropped in front of him until he found the one he wanted and pushed the other files off to the side. All th
[The Next Day] SEBASTIAN Perched on the side of the bed with my phone in my right hand, I kept Rory up to date on the situation regarding Sierra's mother as he did the same on the hunt for Bryanna. Nothing had changed since I left. Sierra cuddled up against my side with a hand wrapped around my torso as soft wisps of snores exited her parted lips, sounding like cute whimpers and a frown pinching her forehead. I was just waiting for her to fall asleep. That way, should I slither out of bed, she wouldn't wake up. She was going through a lot, and I wanted to help in any way I could. While she slept, I tugged on my shirt and headed out to the living room. It was a mess, to say the least. I meandered between the living room and the kitchen, assessing the damage. Based on the state of the living room, the attacks took place there. Now upended was previously set-up furniture, while broken lamp shades and vases scattered the floor. There was a puddle of blood at the entrance, and I
[Live Your Life] SIERRA I buried my face in Sebastian's chest, hiding from the mischief twinkling in his eyes. His words had done more than arouse me. It was like he knew exactly what to say to get my juices flowing, my blood pumping, and my body yearning for his touch. "Look at me, Angel," Sebastian demanded in a stern yet soothing tone. I shook my head, afraid of what his gaze would further do to my body. "Suddenly so shy," he mused. "What happened to my fiery mate? The one who only seconds ago was ready to let me plunge into her in a hospital parking lot?" His words were so crude, yet profound. When I still refused to look at him, Sebastian curled his finger under my chin and lifted my head to meet his gaze. On instinct, I closed my eyes. Did that satisfy him? Not in the slightest. I covered my face with both hands, ensuring he couldn't see my eyes. "Last chance," Sebastian forewarned. "Open your eyes." I made a gap between my middle and ring finger only to find him s
[Runaway Bride] ZAIDEN Over the years, even recently, I have had my share of women in my bed, ranging in size, ethnicity, and background. I wasn't fussy when it came to the ladies. How could I be? Especially when they were the ones throwing themselves at me. That wasn't me being a jerk. Neither was it me labeling myself as a player. Far from it. If anything, it was me depicting how different it was with all those other women compared to this moment with my future bride. With those women, I gave them control. I told them what to do and how to do it. After all, they were so eager to please me. I never had a problem with it. Still, remembering all my unsuccessful climaxes, in contrast to being on the verge of coming in my pants, it was hardly a fair comparison. Cassidy moaned. She pressed her lower body against my pulsating shaft, the sounds of her desire mingled with my groans. I left her lips, lowered my mouth to her voluptuous bosom and took a stiff peak into my mouth, watchin
