Semua Bab The Rogue’s Savage Claim on Me: Bab 131 - Bab 140

FAOI had never loved El more than I did in that moment.She sat in my lap, my human mate, my anchor, my home, and faced down an Alpha who'd been playing political games since before El was born. She didn't flinch. Didn't back down. Just held her ground with steel in her spine and fire in her eyes, like she'd been doing this her whole life instead of being dropped into it without warning three months ago.Mine, I thought fiercely. This incredible woman is mine.I kept my hand at the small of her back, steady and present, not restraining, just there. Reminding her. Reminding Seraphina."Well." Seraphina's voice was carefully neutral. "This has been illuminating.""Has it?""You're not what I expected, Alpha de Grandmesnil." She rose gracefully, unhurried, the kind of movement that said she left rooms on her own terms. "Either of you.""What did you expect?""A wild wolf playing at civilization. A boy with a blood claim and nothing else." Her eyes traveled over me, then settled on El st

FAOThe meeting ended after midnight.By the time we made it back to our suite, I was vibrating with need. Twenty-four hours of not touching El. Twenty-four hours of watching her face down Seraphina, of feeling her courage through the bond, of wanting to throw her down and claim her in front of everyone just to prove a point.The door barely closed before I had her against it."Fao—""I need you." My voice came out rough, barely human. "I've needed you since the moment you stepped out of that security formation and sat in my lap like you owned me.""I do own you." Her hands were already pulling at my shirt. "Just like you own me."She shoved me back — hard enough to make me stumble — and something dark and delicious sparked in her eyes. "My turn."I let her push me onto the bed. Let her climb on top of me, straddling my hips, her hands pressing my wrists into the mattress."Twenty-four hours," she said, rolling her hips against me. "Twenty-four hours of not being able to touch you. Do

Three Weeks LaterELOWENI hit the mat for the fifteenth time that morning."Better," Garrett said, which was high praise from him. "Your footwork is improving.""My ass is improving at meeting the floor." I accepted his hand and let him pull me up. "But thanks."Training had become my routine. Every morning, two hours with Garrett — learning to evade, to redirect, to survive. I'd never be as strong as a wolf, but I was getting faster. Smarter. Learning to use their expectations against them."Again," Garrett said.I groaned but settled into position.After training came breakfast with Fao — usually something quick, because he had meetings and I had... whatever I'd decided to do with my day. That had been the hardest part of settling in: finding my place.I wasn't a wolf. I couldn't hunt or patrol or do any of the things that gave the others purpose. For the first few days, I'd drifted — eating meals, attending meetings, feeling increasingly useless.Then Nina had dragged me to the pa

FAOThe clearing was full.Every wolf in Silverpine Ridge had gathered — in human form, in wolf form, somewhere in between. They had arranged themselves in a winding spiral that curved around the stone altar where I stood waiting, creating a corridor of bodies El would have to walk through to reach me. Wolves in human form alternating with wolves in full form, torches flickering between them, casting dancing shadows across the ancient clearing.I was shirtless, barefoot, wearing only loose linen pants that would be easy to remove. The full moon was just starting to rise, and I could feel its pull in my blood — the wolf pacing beneath my skin, eager for what was to come.Soon, I promised it. Soon she'll be ours completely.Through the pack bond, I felt their anticipation. Three hundred wolves, all focused on this moment. Their energy hummed through me — excitement, joy, hunger. It fed into my own need until I was vibrating with it.Then El appeared at the edge of the spiral.She was...

He fucked me with his fingers through the aftershocks, adding a third when I started to come down. His tongue curled against that spot inside me that made me see heavens in the dark."Again," he growled against my pussy. "Give me another one.""I can't—""You can." His thumb found my clit, rubbing in tight circles. "You will. Come for me, Elowen. Come for the pack."I shattered again — harder this time, squirting against his face, drenching his chin and the furs beneath me. He groaned like I'd given him a gift and lapped up everything I gave him.By the time he lifted his head, I was trembling."Beautiful," he breathed. "You're so fucking beautiful when you come.""Please—" I reached for him. "I need you inside me. Now. Please.""Not yet." His eyes glowed gold in the moonlight. "I'm not done worshipping you."He flipped me onto my stomach.I yelped in surprise, then moaned as he spread my ass cheeks and pressed a kiss to my lower back. "What are you—""Shh." He kissed lower. "Let me."
