Chapter 31 It's my fault

Third Person's POV When Ollie opened the door to leave the dark room, he found his brother crying on the floor. Leo jumped to his feet and threw his arms around Ollie's neck.“I'm so sorry! I'm so sorry! This is all my fault!” Leo cried.The Omega pulled back and looked his brother over. “Are you okay? Did he hurt you?” “I don't know… I don't know,” Ollie's voice trembled, and his lip quivered before tears began to fall. The Omega was confused. He didn't know what just happened. He thought his mate hurt him. If he hurt him, then why did his body react that way? He must not have hurt him if his body found pleasure in it. His back, thighs, and ass hurt, but yet he came from it. He was embarrassed, ashamed, and humiliated, yet his body seemed to like what Anton did to him. Why? The Omega wondered. Ollie began to wonder if he was just as sick and twisted as Anton. He was ashamed of himself. He couldn't bring himself to tell his brother what happened. They both gasped and grabbed each

Chapter 32 Don't look

Third Person's POV Brandon roared when Anton pierced his hand into his side. He grunts, fighting the urge to cry out when Anton twists his hand inside the wound. Leo and Ollie jump onto Anton's back. Ollie wraps his arm around his mate's neck and pulls back as hard as he can. Leo sinks his canines into Anton's neck, and the Alpha finally lets go of his mate. His hand slips from Brandon's body as he's pulled backward. Brandon immediately applied pressure against the wound. The Alpha growls when Leo bites deeper. Anton reaches back, grabs Leo's head, and pulls forward as hard as he can, flipping the Omega over his head and slamming him to the ground. He ignores his mate, who is still clinging to his neck. He reaches down and grabs Leo with his left hand while drawing his right hand back. Everything goes black for Leo when the Alpha's fist connects with his face.Brandon watched, horrified, as his brother punched his mate. He scrambles to his feet but slips in his own blood, and by th

Chapter 33 Let's go home

Third Person's POVLeo stood back as his mate, Father, and Alpha Grayson talked to Mark in the hallway. His mind was reeling with everything that happened. How his mate fought for him and his brother, what his brother lost, and knowing nothing was keeping them there any longer. Leo looked around and knew he couldn't spend another night in this place. He knew once he left, he would never come back; he couldn't. He hated this place, right down to the color of the paint. Tears filled Leo's eyes when he realized what he must do. His chest tightened, and his breath stuttered when he looked up and saw his mate in the hall talking to Mark. Brandon's so handsome. He's so big, strong, and muscular, but so soft, like a big teddy bear with him. Brandon has tried hard. He knows Brandon loves him. He can see it when he looks into his eyes and feels it in his touch. That's what makes it so much harder for what he must do. Tears rolled down Leo's face even faster when Brandon turned and looked int

Chapter 34 Healing

Third Person's POV Being back home never felt so good. Somehow, it helps ease the ache inside Ollie's chest. Leo tried to stay in the room with him, but Ollie knew his brother needed to be with his mate. Now that their nightmare was over, his brother and Brandon could finally bond the way they should have. They can't do that if they're sleeping in separate rooms. Also, Ollie wanted some time alone. He needed time alone to reflect on his thoughts and process everything. Being home is finally allowing him to do that. Now that everything is sinking in, Anton's red flags are so much brighter and louder. He knows he should never have stayed there. He should have left with his parents when they returned home. When Ollie looks in the mirror, he looks the same, but yet he doesn't. Somehow, he looks different. He doesn't recognize the person staring back at him. “Here, sweetie, why don't you come have a little before we go down?” Theo said as he scooped a portion of buffalo chicken dip int

Chapter 35 EJ

Third Person's POV Leo ran after his brother while the large bear shifter was left behind, shocked and confused. Leo banged on the bathroom door, begging his brother to open it. “Ollie, please answer me. Let me in so we can talk,” Leo said, but was met with silence. Leo frowned as he knocked on the door again. He jumped when a hand touched his shoulder. “Can I try?” EJ asked, and the Omega stepped aside.EJ stood in front of the door and paused before lifting his hand and knocking on the door twice.“Ollie, it's me, EJ. Can you open the door, please?” EJ asked, but just like Leo, he received no reply. “Ollie, I don't know everything you went through, but I would never hurt you. Please, let me in, sweetheart.”EJ’s heart began to beat faster when he heard Ollie unlock the door. A moment later, the door slowly creaked open. EJ’s eyebrows knit together when he doesn't see the Omega. He slowly steps into the bathroom, and when he peeks behind the door, his heart skips a beat when he

Chapter 36 An Alpha Bear

Third Person's POV EJ sat down in a wicker rocking chair on the patio. He thought for sure this was a dream. It had to be! After everything he'd been through, after all the packs he searched, after falling for this Omega just to realize he wasn't his, and now, suddenly, he is.EJ wonders if he's going to wake up alone. If this is just another elaborate dream that he's had one too many times. But when the Omega tickles his neck as he happily and eagerly scents himself against his scent gland, an act that screams loud and clear who he belongs to, it causes his breath to stutter and his eyes close as his head dips to the Omega's neck and kisses it. His heart swells when he feels a shiver run through his Omega. The touch of his lips works its magic through the magical thing called the mate bond.It felt surreal to finally press his lips to this beautiful little Omega as much as he wanted instead of limiting himself to his head, forehead, or cheek once or twice each time he saw him, even

Chapter 37 Heart to Heart

Third Person's POV “So, does this mean you're moving to this pack?” Anders asked.“What? Why would you ask that?”“Well, because his identical twin and their triplet brother live in this pack. I highly doubt Ollie will want to leave his triplet brothers. Especially not after what he just went through.” Anders said, and EJ looked down. “I. I never thought of that. I didn't plan on moving. I mean, I finally got my dream position! It took me a long time to become a captain. I worked so hard for that… shit! I didn't think of that.” The memory of his conversation with Anders won't stop playing in EJ's head, not even as he carries his sleepy and adorable mate up the stairs. He watches the Omega yawn and rubs his eyes before nuzzling his cheek with his nose. EJ's heart swelled. Could the Omega possibly be any cuter? The Beta wondered. EJ stopped behind Xavier while he opened the door to the apartment. He caressed the Omega's back as he nuzzled his neck, and then followed Xavier down the h

Chapter 38

Third Person's POV Ryder's head snaps back, and blood sprays as his body flies backward before hitting the ground, knocking the wind out of him. It takes him a moment to recover enough to push himself off the ground. He wipes the blood from his face, breathing heavily as he takes his position again. The large Delta 1 shrugs his shoulders and takes position on the mat. Ryder counts to three, and the two charge each other. The retired Beta is too slow. The wounds he sustained and the fact that he can't stop thinking about her have worn him down. Everything goes dark momentarily as Ryder takes a blow to the temple. His body hits the ground, and he's disoriented.A whistle blows, stopping the Delta 1 before he kicks Ryder’s side. “That's enough, man. You're done for the day,” The Captain said as he and Marcus pulled Ryder to his feet. “I got him from here,” Marcus said as he pulled Ryder's arm over his shoulder, held onto his wrist with his left hand, and wrapped his right arm around t

Chapter 39 Her

Third Person's POV Her hand goes to his face and grips it as their tongues fight for dominance. She kicks her sandals off and climbs into the tub, straddling him. His hands slide down her waist, gripping and feeling as much of her as he could before his hands move to her ass and grip it, pulling her closer as he deepens the kiss. Tingle dances along their skin, and the pull to her is incredibly strong. Her kiss is delicious, and her scent is addictive. Her fingers thread through his hair and grip it, tugging, and he growls. Her hips roll as he sucks on her lip. He thrust against her as she pulled back and looked at him. His pupils are blown, and his eyes flicker back and forth between Ryder and Rex. His lips chase hers, and her lips tug up as she pulls back just out of reach. He growls as he grabs her ass, pulling her down as he thrusts up against her. He moves forward for her lips again, and just as they brush together, she pulls back, earning another growl. His fingers glide along

Chapter 40 You don't understand

Third Person's POV Ryder took a quick shower, pulled his clothes on, and paused before opening his bedroom door. He closed his eyes and wondered what the hell had gotten into him. It wasn't just his wolf that was responsible for what just happened; he was too. He gave in to the pull and the feelings the temporary mark was causing him to have. He knew he only made it worse for himself and Vanessa. It may have curbed the strong urge and desire for each other now, but it was temporary. It didn't fix anything; it made it worse, strengthening the bond that was going to fade and making his desire for her stronger when it came back. Ryder exhaled and pushed all thoughts of Vanessa aside as he stepped out of his room and walked down the hall to find his daughter. “Hey, sweetheart,” Ryder said as he entered the kitchen and found Azalea with her head in the fridge, putting things away. “Oh my goodness, look at this stuff! This is a dragonberry! Can you believe how big this is? Oh, and look a
