I felt unsettled being here already. It certainly seemed more sophisticated than Silver Waters, but it also seemed so much larger, and busier, just like its people. I'd be easily recognisable here, given my smaller stature, and that would make slipping away all that much more difficult. And that was if Saxon ever let me leave his sight. Judging by the way he'd held me close to him for the whole journey, I wasn't entirely sure he would. I kind of understood that. Mate bonds had been treasured things in Silver Waters too, but I didn't understand how I could be either of theirs, let alone both, as they'd implied. Though not publicly, I noticed, as Haden met my eyes briefly in his rear view mirror. They'd given no one else any indication at all that I was his, too, and that left me with even more questions. Haden had also mentioned it feeling the same as what he'd felt with Saxon. Were they mates? It was certainly rare, for it to be two of the same gender, though not unheard of. It wasn

He kissed me with a fierce hunger, and I felt myself getting lost in it again. As his incredible taste filled my mouth, I couldn't help but return it with a hunger I hadn't even known I'd felt. And it felt good. Too good, I realised, as he moaned softly, pressing his body closer to mine, and I tried to pull away. Surprisingly, he allowed me to, only to turn me around to face Haden, standing close to me, that same hungry look in his intense green eyes. Oh no, I thought to myself, suddenly realising what was happening. He smiled, and Saxon nudged me closer, pushing himself against me from behind as Haden cupped my cheek with one hand, moving closer and pressing his lips to mine. His was more tender, at first, but just like Saxon's, the heat built quickly, leaving me breathless and aching for more. And they gave it. Saxon's hands began wandering over me from behind, while his lips found the sensitive skin of my neck, trailing soft kisses along it, while his hot breath made me shiver an

I felt hazy when I finally woke up. Confused, as it took me a moment to remember where I was, and all that had happened last night. I sighed and rubbed my eyes sleepily, before opening them and looking around Saxon's bedroom. I was alone, much to my relief, but also naked, and my clothes were nowhere to be seen. Noticing the door standing slightly ajar on one side of the room, I got up and crept over quietly, hoping it was a bathroom. It was, thankfully, and I closed the door behind me, locking it, before washing my hands and face, then gulping down some cold water. My stomach growled, reminding me once again how long it had been since I'd eaten anything, but given my missing clothing, water would have to be enough for now. Besides, a shower would be very welcome too, especially after last night. My body tensed just thinking of it, the way both of their hands had been all over me, and inside me. And how much they'd made me want it. I shook my head, and reached over to turn the wate

Reluctantly, I nodded, without meeting their eyes. I could feel how much they needed this, and just couldn't bring myself to refuse them, though I knew I couldn't bring myself to stay, either. Not when Mama had been so adamant that I avoid all Lycans. The fear in her eyes at that moment was not something I'd seen in her before, and I knew she had her reasons for saying it, even if I'd never know what they are. I glanced up at the two of them, seeing both of them watching me with looks of uncertainty, and nodded briefly again. "Okay," I said quietly, "just until my birthday," and turned to look at the clothes Haden had brought in, busying myself with picking out some to put on. The answer seemed to satisfy them, and Saxon pulled me closer, gently nuzzling his face into the curve of my neck. "Thank you, pup," he said sincerely, before stroking my hair and kissing my cheek, then pulling off the rest of his clothes and heading for the bathroom himself. The sound of running water follo

They led me downstairs in tense silence, at least until Serena saw us, and fell in beside us as we reached the second floor. "Saxon," she purred at him, ignoring both Haden and I as she linked her arm through his, clinging to him as we walked. "How was your journey back? We should find a moment to catch up, perhaps over lunch?" she continued, and he stopped dead in his tracks, so suddenly I almost walked into his back. Serena was unimpressed, turning to glare at me, "Step back, runt, watch where you're going," she said, her lips curling in a look of disgust as she looked over her shoulder at me. I ignored her though, more concerned with the icy glare Saxon was giving her. "Did you hear me?" Serena said, lifting her chin as she turned to face me more, her hand still on Saxon's arm. His face only darkened further, and I simply raised an eyebrow at her. "I said.." she began angrily, but was interrupted by Haden, "She heard what you said, Serena. We all did," he said, and looked pointed

Saxon's threatening growl made her take a step backwards, "They're here?!" he asked, and she shook her head. "Not yet, but the first group arrived about an hour ago, and they're all taking about it," she said, and he started to stand. Haden gently placed a hand on his arm, giving him a small shake of his head, "They're not here yet, Sax," he said in the voice that I knew had such a calming effect, and Saxon paused, looking at him. "Trin is just giving us a heads up, so we can plan and react accordingly when they are, right Trin?" Haden continued, looking at her, and she nodded quickly again. "Exactly, I thought you should know as far in advance as possible," she agreed, and Saxon sighed, sitting back down and staring at her for a long moment. "Thank you, Trin," he said after a while, and she bowed her head towards him, before giving me an apologetic smile and turning to leave. Haden and Saxon fell into silence again as they continued eating, but I noticed their eyes going occasiona

When Haden finally lifted his head again, breaking the kiss, I felt flushed and breathless, but he clearly had no intention of stopping there. He gently pushed me backwards, and when I resisted, Saxon placed his hands on my shoulders from behind. The intensity of Haden's kiss had almost made me forget Saxon was even there, and as he pushed me down onto the desk, it was clear he was no longer content with just watching. He bent over me, his mouth lowering to mine, and his kiss was filled with as much fiery passion as Haden's had been. Almost enough to distract me from Haden beginning to undo my pants. My hands reached for his, trying to stop him, but Saxon reached for mine, moving them and holding my wrists either side of my head. He lifted his head, looking down at me as he whispered, "Don't fight it, pup." Haden hesitated, leaning forwards as his hands wandered over me, before cupping my face, drawing my attention to him. "Just say yes, love," he asked in that calm, soothing tone,

We stayed there a while, simply holding each other in silence, until Saxon sighed heavily, reluctantly pulling away and redressing himself. "Alpha duties?" Haden asked, as Saxon reached down to pull my underwear and jeans back up too, gently caressing my legs as he did. He sighed again, "Yeah, Abigail is here, and already throwing a fit, apparently." I tensed immediately, turning pale at the mention of her name, "She's here? I mean.. already?" I asked, feeling sick at the thought of seeing her again. Haden frowned at me, looking at me with concern as he re-buckled his belt. "Yeah, most should be here by tonight," Saxon said, and Haden's eyes went blank for a brief moment. Silence followed, before Saxon suddenly wrapped his arms around my waist from behind, nuzzling his face against me. "She has no power here, pup. Or anywhere," he whispered softly, "She can't hurt you anymore." Haden nodded agreement, reaching up to cup my face, stroking my cheek with his thumb, "And if she tries,

I heard her cry out, and the sound of someone hitting the floor, along with the familiar metallic clink of thick, metal chains, and immediately pushed my way through the crowd. Haden tried to call me back to him, but I barely noticed, my whole being focused entirely on finding her. And I did, sprawled on the ground in filthy rags, a collar around her neck, attached to a heavy chain, the other end of which was wrapped around Gamma - or I suppose Alpha, now - Byron's thick palm. Most were standing around, watching with looks of horror and disgust, except for those from Silver Waters, who seemed far less bothered by this sort of scene. Some even looked mildly satisfied, Abigail especially, until she looked up and saw me, and her expression turned to shock, then anger. "You!" she screeched, raising her hand to point it at me, "So this is where you ran off to, thinking you could escape your duties to our pack," she sneered, then turned to Byron, "She should be in chains just like her use

I watched Susanna calmly walk back inside, and turned to Haden, "What did she mean, about not being what she expected?" I asked, and he just shrugged again, though there was a hint of amusement on his face. "Haden?" I prodded again, as he took my hand and began to lead me around the enormous building, and he sighed softly. "Susanna is.." he began, seeming to consider his words thoughtfully, "well.. she doesn't miss much. And she doesn't let on even a fraction of what she's noticed. She understands more about the people and happenings in this pack than anyone could ever know." I frowned, thinking of my first impression of her, and wondered how many others saw her perfectly preened appearance, and dismissive, haughty kind of attitude, and saw little else beyond it. Haden glanced at me, then gave a soft laugh, "You'll find a lot of people aren't quite what they first seem here," he said gently, "Like Saxon, and his reputation. Hell, even his demeanor with most people.. it's not who he r
