Derek And Braeden Novels & Stories

“He touched you, didn’t he?” Arden looked away, lips pressed together. “It doesn’t matter. It’s over.” “No, it’s not over,” Kyle said firmly. “That guy’s a creep. What’s his deal, anyway?” Arden sighed and shook his head. “He’s… someone from my uncle’s house. My cousin.” Kyle blinked. “Wait—that’s Derek? The one you told me about?” Arden nodded quietly. “Yeah. Him.” Kyle’s jaw tightened. “Unbelievable. He still acts like a jerk even outside his house.”

The four of us stand up when five extremely large men walk in. “I am Kaden, and this is my cousin Alek. These two here are Brent and Lance.” I say. “Hey, I am Curtis, and this is Venom,” Curtis says. “I am Quade, and this is Zion. I am assuming you know Chaos.” Quade states.

Fully. I launch into a full wing explanation. I had better make sense in no time because Kael was looking like he would not mind beating some of it into me. “Derek here was Ari's bodyguard back in the day. He survived the bonfire night because he was an accomplice of Alpha Brad back then and……” “What?! He is a traitor? You mean this man right here works for Alpha Brad?” “Worked for. Listen more and interrupt less.” I say dryly.

Derek hesitated before answering: "Viv drank too much celebrating for me tonight. She'll feel awful tomorrow, and I need to take care of her. I won't make it to the mating ceremony. Let's just forget about it." My heart turned cold, but I nodded gently. "Okay." After a pause, I pulled out the mate bond dissolution papers from my bag and handed them to Derek. "Sign these documents, please." Perhaps out of guilt, Derek took the pen without even looking at the papers and signed them. Then he looked at me, his voice soft as he promised: "I'll bring home your favorite venison tomorrow." With that, he drove away. ... When Derek returned home, it was already noon the next day.

After the wedding and the honeymoon, he was going to start his systematic destruction of Paul and Jen. The only thing that was going to save them from complete annihilation was the fact that they had a little kid to care for. He wasn't a complete animal, but he was going to bring them to their fucking knees so that they'd never forget what they'd done to someone who hadn't deserved it. *** News was traveling faster than an email around town. People were texting from under cover of their tablecloths, and the news was all about the rock on Kerryanne's finger. The two foremost recipients were anything but pleased with the news but for two completely different reasons.

Get his ass out of here. *It’s uhm, what’s his name,* Kent says, as we both collectively recognize Dakota’s cousin Reyes. Where the fuck has he been anyhow?? Alpha Braden runs toward him, and puts a hand on his back. It’s clear they’re mind-linking but I look away.

"Feeling better?” After a quick exchange, Adrian dapped up Aiden. He reached for Derek. Derek didn't even look at him. "What's your problem?" Adrian dropped onto the couch. "Honeymoon didn't go well?” "Oh, it was great." Derek's voice dripped sarcasm. "Right up until you ruined it.” "Yes! I win!" Aiden threw his controller in the air. Derek hurled his controller at Adrian's head. "Just like you ruined my game.”

It was the kind of job every teen detested and Derek should be sulking about the fact that he got selected for the duty…not smiling about it. “It’s the day you find your mate!” Derek’s smile only got bigger. “But we already know who it is, right? You guys probably already feel the mating bond.” Sarah shifted in her seat uncomfortable, her brows furrowed as she turned to look at me. Her eyes held the same question that was already on my mind. ‘What was Derek up to now?’ “You seem overly excited about it,” Alex commented from beside me, putting down his game console as he looked up at Derek through his glasses. “Considering it isn’t even your birthday.”

His fingers drummed lightly against the controller, restless for the next round. As the countdown hit ten seconds, Arden spoke casually, almost like he wasn’t dropping a bomb. “I heard rumors from classmates that Derek would be attending this year with us.” Zaylien froze. His thumb stopped mid-tap. For a second, he thought he misheard because of static from the headset. But when he glanced at the glowing name tag of Arden’s character on the screen, he knew he hadn’t. “Which Derek?” His voice came out low, almost sharp.

Austin recognized him immediately and felt his stomach drop. "Alpha Derek," Austin said with tension in his voice. Derek was the alpha of the Silver Moon Pack, which was located right next to Austin's territory. Derek had always been ambitious and greedy, and Austin had never trusted him. "Austin," Derek said with a fake smile. "What a surprise to see you here." "Derek, what do you want?" Austin asked directly. Derek looked around at Austin, Maya, Ethan, and the others. "Actually, I was looking for you. We need to discuss some important business."
