《Back and Better book》 Chapter 1 Chapter 1 Prologue ¡°f*****g nerd!¡± ¡°No, she¡¯s really a dumbass.¡± ¡°Either way she¡¯s disgustingly ugly.¡± ¡°Four eyes.¡± ¡°Bitch.¡± ¡°Slut.¡± ¡°Cunt.¡± ¡°STOP!¡± I begged amongst all the yelling. The Alpha¡¯s son, Erebus, walks up to me, tilting up my chin. ¡°Why would we stop? You¡¯re the perfect punching bag. Weak, ugly, fat¡­ All your good for is taking out anger on. Never forget that.¡± With that Erebus turns on his heel and walks away, the rest of the pack following him. I was left in the high school yard, bleeding profusely from the beating I received, and wishing for death. This memory from earlier today ys over and over in my mind, causing me to be more and more serious about the action I¡¯m considering. My name is Amira Warner. I am 15 years old, turning 16 tomorrow, and am midway through my sophmore year at high school. I am part of the red river pack, and I am the b***h of the pack. I¡¯m beaten every single day, and verbally abused. The worst part? Our soon to be Alpha, Erebus, is the one who does most of the beating. Yeah, I¡¯m not the most skinny girl out there. But I know for a fact that I am not as obese as they tell me. In fact I¡¯ve mostly stopped eating all together so that I can look prettier. But f**k it. Nobody will ever like me, and clearly I¡¯m a waste of space. Tomorrow, at the age of 16, I¡¯m supposed to shift into my wolf and find my mate. But I no longer want either of those things. I¡¯m done. I take the razor I¡¯ve dislodged from a shaving razor and pocket it, heading out into the forest behind my house. I don¡¯t know how far I walk, but I find a beautiful meadow that seems like the perfect ce to end my life. I take a seat underneath an oak tree, and pull out the razor. I¡¯ve always been called a wimp. But I¡¯m not going to be. I¡¯m going to finish myself once and for all. God, but what about my parents? They don¡¯t know about any of the bullying, because my brother heavily participates in it. I fear they wouldn¡¯t believe me if I tell them. I take a deep breath, and dig the razor into the crook of my elbow on my left arm. I the drag it all the way down to my wrist. I repeat the same action on my right arm. I thought I would panic, but I don¡¯t. I feel happy. Peaceful, even. ¡°Hey man, you did f*****g awesome in training¡± I hear a voice ring out as three sets of footsteps approach me. I groan. ¡°Yeah, you too.¡± ¡°A, my baby brothers are doing so well.¡± ¡°f**k you, Alpha.¡± ¡°Pass. I¡¯m not into incest. ¡°Wait, do you guys smell that?¡± There¡¯s a pause in the conversation. ¡°Blood¡± The three men say together. The footsteps run in my direction, and three boys are suddenly kneeling down in front of me. I can¡¯t see clearly anymore, but I think I can make out concern on their facial expressions. ¡°Oh my god! I think she¡¯s trying to kill herself!¡± ¡°LAWRENCE! GET THE FIRST AID KIT FROM UNDER THAT BUSH!¡± s**t, that was definitely an Alpha voice. Welp, at least they can¡¯t kill me now. I¡¯m already dead. ¡°Sweetheart, what¡¯s your name?¡± The Alpha asks. ¡°f**k off¡± I mutter. ¡°Let me die in peace, please.¡± I feel bandages being secured around my wrist, and see that the blood flow has stopped. ¡°f**k!¡± I exim. ¡°What the hell, assholes? Can¡¯t let a girl die in f*****g peace? Damnit, I should have kept walking. Never trust a pretty ce as a suicide spot.¡± Because my healing is a little bit faster, despite me not having shifted into my wolf yet, I can start to see more clearly. Three boys kneel in front of me, not from my pack. They look to be around my age, actually. ¡°Honey, why would you try to kill yourself?¡± That¡¯s all it takes to burst into tears. Through sobs I tell the three boys about all the bullying, the name calling, my birthday being tomorrow, and everything else. ¡°f**k. I would try to kill myself if that happened¡± One of the boys say. ¡°Who are you?¡± I whisper. The boy kneeling directly in front of me speaks up. ¡°I¡¯m Damon Erickson. Next in line Alpha for the Blood Warrior¡¯s pack. These two i***t twins are my brother, Jason and Derick. But you can call them dumb and dumber.¡± Iugh slightly. ¡°If only you guys were my pack maybe I¡¯d still want to live¡± I say with a sigh. The three boys exchange a look. They seem to be mindlinking. ¡°Yeah, I don¡¯t see why not. We¡¯ve always wanted a little sister.¡± Jason says. I snort. ¡°Teasing me will not help. You¡¯ve already interrupted my suicide attempt, so you guys can go home. Thanks for the dy in death.¡± Damon takes my hand in his, causing me to flinch. Nobody touches me unless they¡¯re about to hurt me. ¡°Amira, I¡¯m the next alpha. I can do whatever the f**k I want. And having a little sister is very much what I want. Especially one as feisty as you. I mean hell, you were just on deaths door and the first thing youN?velDrama.Org exclusive content. said was ¡°f**k off.¡± If you want in my pack, we¡¯ll take you with open arms and hearts. Someone like you should not be getting hurt.¡± I start crying again. ¡°Really?¡± I ask. ¡°Yeah. Really.¡± He says. ¡°Tomorrow at 9pm, meet me here. You don¡¯t need to pack much, what¡¯s ours is yours if you agree to If this is a dream, it¡¯s a beautiful one. ¡°Yeah.¡± Several hourster and with two bandaged wrists I head home. I avoid my brother, and don¡¯t bother looking for my parents because they¡¯re on another trip. It¡¯s already 10pm, so I go straight to bed. While in my room, however, I pray to the moon goddess. ¡°Dear heavenly goddess, Ie before thee to ask of arge favor. I am leaving this pack tomorrow with no intentions ofing back, and I don¡¯t want anything to anchor me here. So if my mate happens to be in this pack, allow me to separate from the bond. Please.¡± I open my eyes, only to be met with a glowing celestial woman. ¡°Moon goddess?¡± I ask. ¡°You may call me Selene, child.¡± She responds with a smile. I bow my head to her in respect, but she tilts up my chin. ¡°No need for that, child. We will be seeing quite a bit of each other. Now, if it is your wish that you don¡¯t feel the pull of the mate bond if your mate is in this pack, I will honor that wish. But in return I ask one thing.¡± I nod. ¡°Never bring intentional harm to yourself again. You have a wonderful purpose in life, and it would break my heart to see you pass it by because of some silly pups that bully you.¡± ¡°Of course, Selene.¡± ¡°Uphold the end of your bargain and I shall do the same with mine. A word of advice: Trust the new family you wille into in the Blood Warrior pack. They will be that who you grew up without.¡± With those words, she disappears. Next Chapter Chapter 2 Chapter 2 Chapter Two ¡°I¡¯m gone¡± The next morning I wake up in better spirits than I have in a long time. My first order of business, during lunch, will be to head to the counceling office and ask for transcripts so I can switch high schools. Then I¡¯ll finish out myst day at that miserable school, clear out my locker, and head home. Pack a backpack with necessities, and go meet my new family. Perhaps I¡¯ll leave behind a note. Perhaps. I can¡¯t wait to shift tonight. To finally see what wolf I¡¯ll be. Slinging my backpack over my shoulder I grab an apple and get into my car, driving to school. Don¡¯t want to bete on myst day. I put in my headphones and rush to first period. Breathe, Amira. It¡¯s yourst day avoiding everyone. I must say I will seriously miss the teachers in this school. I have a close bond with all of my teachers, and the principle. Last night I ended up writing letters to each of them, letters that I¡¯ll give at the end of sses and ask them to wait to open until the next day. By the time lunch rolls around, I¡¯m holding back tears. Not because of shittyments, but because I¡¯ll miss my teachers so much. I head into the principles office. ¡°Ah, Amira. How can I help you?¡± ¡°Hey, Patrick. I just came to grab a copy of my transcripts.¡± Patrick, the principle, looks at me sadly. ¡°You¡¯re leaving us?¡± I offer him a small smile. ¡°It¡¯s very much on the down low, so I¡¯d appreciate it if you didn¡¯t mention it. But yes.¡± He prints out my transcripts and I give him his letter. ¡°Please don¡¯t open it until tomorrow.¡± Before walking out, I think ¡°Screw it. I don¡¯t even want to stay past lunch.¡± I give him the rest of the letters and ask him to deliver them. With that, I walk out. I go straight to my locker and clear out the textbooks and notebooks in there, putting them all in my backpack. I take onest look up and down the halls of this f****d up school. ¡°Astvista, motherfucker¡± I murmur, turning on my heel to head out. As I do head out, however, I see Erebus. Alpha-to-be. ¡°f**k¡± I mutter, attempting to veer away. However, when I nce at him, he¡¯s staring at me with adoration in his eyes. ¡°Mine¡± he whispers, starting to walk up to me. Erebus is my mate? Oh dear god. This is the ultimate cosmic joke. Thank goddess I don¡¯t feel the mate bond, otherwise I¡¯d be anchored here forever. As he gets closer, I step back. ¡°Mate¡± He says. I startughing out loud. Honestly, this is hrious. This prick, who has made my life a living hell, is my mate? Now that is f*****g priceless. I hope he writhes in agony for the rest of ever. Once he¡¯s right in front of me, he frowns. ¡°Mate. Amira, why are youughing?¡± I bend over, wheezing. This is priceless. Once I sober up and wipe tears from my eyes, I look back at him. ¡°Oh, this is just too good. You, the guy who was one of my main bullies and hence reasons I tried to kill myself yesterday, is my mate? I can only thank the goddess that I don¡¯t feel s**t towards you.¡± ¡°You tried to do what?¡± he growls. I clear my throat. Where is this confidenceing from? ¡°Allow me to reiterate, Alpha Erebus. Yesterday I went home, got a razor, and slit both of my wrists. I got quite lucky that someone found me and helped. After that I went home and prayed to the moon goddess that if I have a mate in this pack, that I don¡¯t feel the mate bond. And she clearly granted my wish. So go f**k yourself, Erebus.¡± He steps back, tears in his eyes. ¡°No. No, no, no, no, no, no, no! Amira, no. Please. I¡¯m so sorry. Goddess, you tried tomit suicide? No, what have I done?! Please forgive me. I am so, so sorry. I love you.¡± He says. Huh, the alpha has emotions. ¡°That sucks, Alpha. That is really unfortunate.¡± I say, pushing past him. All rights ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Amira, where are you going? He says.¡± I shake my head and start running to my car. If I tell him I¡¯m leaving, he¡¯ll stop me. I can¡¯t let him stop me. I get in my car, turn it on, and drive home. As soon as I¡¯m in my room, I pray and give the moon goddess thanks. I ask for guidance, help, advice, and thank her more times than I can count. I pack three changes of clothes, myptop, and a photo of me with my parents into a backpack, and hop into the shower. When I take off my bandages I see that my wrists have just aboutpletely healed. Damn. That was ridiculously fast. At 9:30 PM, I write a note to leave on the kitchen counter. Mom and dad, I¡¯m leaving the pack today and nevering back. Don¡¯t worry, I won¡¯t be rogue. I found another pack that offered to take me in and adopt me. The reason for my leaving is how strongly I¡¯ve been bullied. Remember the bruises you asked me about and I just said I was clumsy? I¡¯m not clumsy. I would get beaten every day after school by my ssmates. And you know who was at the forefront of that beating? Our next Alpha in line, and your son. I take ountability in never speaking to you, but frankly I was afraid you loved Brendon more than me. I don¡¯t know whether or not that¡¯s true, and I have no intention of finding out. You were never there for me. You were always traveling. So this shouldn¡¯t be much of a change. I wish you both the absolute best in life, and hope that I never see you again. Sincerely, Amira. I wipe away tears after writing this. Now is not the time to be a p***y. When I enter the clearing of the forest, the boys and a man and woman stand waiting for me. ¡°Hey, Amira. Happy birthday.¡± Damon says. ¡°This is mom and dad. Luna Anna and Alpha Anatol.¡± The Luna promptly wraps me in a hug. ¡°Sweetheart, I am so sorry about what you¡¯ve been through. But you¡¯re a part of us now. We¡¯ve had adoption papers drawn up. As soon as we get your signature, you¡¯re officially our family. I bow. ¡°Thank you, Luna.¡± ¡°Mom and dad¡± Anatol corrects, joining the hug. Soon enough I¡¯m being hugged by my new parents and siblings. And I know, without a doubt, I¡¯ve found home. Chapter 3 Chapter 3 Chapter Three 18 monthster ¡°Back to hell¡± Amira POV ¡°Yeah? Come at me, bitches!¡± I taunt the twins. ¡°YOU ARE SO DEAD!¡± Jason yells. ¡°Catch me if you can¡± I squeal, running out of the packhouse. I identally collide with Luna Anna, though I call her my real mom. This is my genuine family, and for the past year and a half they have treated me like a daughter and sister. ¡°Amira! Careful!¡± she scolds. ¡°Sorry mom!¡± I yell behind my shoulder, running into the woods. The next person I collide with is my brother and soon to be Alpha, Damon. ¡°Woah! Where¡¯s the fire, sis?¡± he asks. ¡°Damon! Help! Jason and Derick are after me!¡± I screech, hiding behind him. ¡°You, a white wolf, is scared of two delinquents?¡± Damon asks with a chuckle. He¡¯s right. White wolfs are the rarest wolfs, and they have supernatural abilities that link them directly to the moon goddess. The night I joined this pack and my real family, I shifted and was a white wolf. Apparently there are only a few other white wolfs alive right now. ¡°They¡¯re threatening to tickle me!¡± I defend myself. Jason and Derick catch up, standing in front of Damon. ¡°Hand over the sister¡± Derick solemnlymands. ¡°And what is the offense you are attempting to punish?¡± ¡°She ate all the brownies.¡± Jasonins. ¡°You idiots! I made those brownies! I had no obligation to share!¡± I yell. As a white wolf, I have a lot of perks. That means a banging body and face, crazy smarts, and unmatched fighting skills. Only a few alpha¡¯s can beat me in a fight- human or wolf form. ¡°You ate the entire tray! How do you even do that?¡± Derick says. ¡°Easy. I¡¯m a white wolf.¡± I rebut. ¡°Showoff!¡± ¡°Asshole!¡± I retort. ¡°Enough!¡± Damon says. ¡°As the Alpha here, I believe I¡¯vee up with a sentence.¡± ¡°What?¡± I squeak. ¡°GET HER!¡± Damon says. I scream and run away from them. ¡°You bastard!¡± I yell back at Damon. In about five seconds he catches up to me, tackles me, and throws me on the ground- tickling me mercilessly. The twins join in and torture me for five minutes before finally letting up. I¡¯m giggling uncontrobly and wheezing. ¡°Boys! Amira! Training time!¡± Dad bellows. We all stand and I brush myself off. The boys and I train all of the pack warriors. Even the warriors up to decades older than us. There is nobody stronger than us. And nobody as skilled as me. What can I say? White f*****g wolf. As we start walking back to the packhouse I jump onto Damon¡¯s back. ¡°Brat¡± he says. ¡°b***h¡± I retort. That¡¯s kind of our thing. I¡¯ll do something silly, and Damon will call me brat- and I¡¯ll retort with b***h. The twins tend to tell me I suck, and my rebuttal to that is ¡°Yeah, but at least I f*****g swallow. You two are quitters.¡± Once we get to the packhouse I go upstairs to get dressed, and the boys go to lead warmups. I put on a ck sports bra, ck shorts, and my new ck Nike sneakers. When I head back down I see that the pack warriors in training are currently runningps around the field in the backyard of the packhouse. ¡°Are we thinking hand to handbat today?¡± I ask Damon. ¡°Yeah. We¡¯ve been practicing in just wolf form too much recently, let¡¯s just go for hand to hand.¡± I nod. Once warmups are over I step up. ¡°Alrightdies.¡± I call the guys and girlsdies. What? They act like bitches. ¡°Today we are doing hand to handbat. Find a partner who¡¯s in your strength and height range, and spar.¡± ¡°Why don¡¯t you ever spar?¡± A voice from the back calls. Damon snorts. ¡°Because she¡¯s better than all of you.¡± ¡°She¡¯s just a seventeen year old girl. How is she better? I bet I could take her down.¡± I recognize the voice as a 22 year old named Weston. ¡°Alright. Come here, then,¡± I invite him. He walks up past all of the other warriors, and stations himself in front of me. ¡°Since I¡¯m a gentlemen I¡¯ll let you have the first move,¡± I say. He attempts to sweep my legs out from under me and I jump to avoid that. While in the air I deliver a strong kick to his diaphragm, sending him sprawling to the floor. He hops back up as I examine my nails. This time I strike first, delivering a punishing right hook to his jaw. He gets ready to throw a punch so I do a backflip away from him, and when he runs at me I sweep his legs out from under him. He falls face first onto the ground and I straddle him, twisting his arm back. ¡°Call uncle whenever you¡¯ve had enough, sugar,¡± I tell him. I¡¯ve taken to calling boys sugar. It also helps because I can¡¯t remember most of their names. When he doesn¡¯t say anything I snap his arm. ¡°UNCLE!¡± he shouts. ¡°Someone get the f*****g pack doctor. We have ady down,¡± Iment. ¡°You are such a badass!¡± My best friend, Samantha, squeals while running up to me. Iugh and hug her. ¡°Thanks, babe.¡± ¡°Attention all warriors¡± My dad¡¯s voice carries throughout the training field. ¡°As you all know, there has been issues among surrounding packs with insufficient training. In other words, some packs are ridiculously vulnerable to threats of rogues. Since packs look to us to keep order and to help, we will be sending warriors to train other packs. I will list names and locations now.¡± Oh, s**t. Please don¡¯t send me to red river pack. Anywhere but there. ¡°I¡¯ll start out with my children. You will be sent to the pack that needs the most help because of how big their numbers are.¡± Please, not red river. Please anywhere but there. ¡°All four of you will be going to red river pack.¡± A collective gasp goes over the crowd. Although it is a pack secret, all of the warriors know my background of bullying and ending up being the mate to Erebus. They are all sworn to secrecy because I can¡¯t afford for Erebus to know my location because I know he¡¯lle looking for me. ¡°Are you kidding?¡± I say. ¡°Baby, you¡¯re our best, and red river needs our best.¡± Dad responds. I push down my emotions and nod. Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. ¡°You leave tonight. Go get packing.¡± ¡°ARE YOU f*****g KIDDING ME?!¡± I explode, before pping a hand over my mouth. Although the Alpha is a true father, he is still an Alpha, and I respect him in public. I still respect him in private, but talk back like any daughter. Instead of anger that I expect from him, I see empathy in his eyes. ¡°You¡¯ll have your brothers with you, honey. It¡¯ll be okay.¡± Without thinking twice, I set the pile of wood stocked up for bonfires about fifty feet away from everyone on fire. ¡°f**k¡± I whisper. I¡¯m still learning how to get my power over the elements under control. I douse the fire with a bunch of water I create out of nowhere. With that I run off into the trees. Being a white wolf my clothes are intact when I shift, so I never have to worry about that. So, instead of stopping to strip, I change right into my wolf. I run, and run, and run until I reach the edge of our territory. There¡¯s ake that marks it. I shift back to human In thest 18 months, I¡¯ve seriously taken up ice skating. I¡¯ve actually had multiple offers to join the Olympic team, but never epted. I pull out a pair of ice skates I keep under a tree, and freeze over theke with a swish of my wrists. For a few hours I just skate around theke, practicing jumps and twirls and everything else I enjoy. It¡¯s only after I¡¯ve thoroughly tired myself out that I jog back home in human form. Dad¡¯s sitting in the kitchen, going over some paperwork, when I get back. ¡°You leave in an hour and stay for a few months, maybe more depending on the help they need. Your brothers will be ridiculously protective of you, so you don¡¯t need to worry. Go pack. You can take your car.¡± I sigh. ¡°Okay, dad. I trust this is for the best. But I can¡¯t promise that I won¡¯t beat some bastards senseless.¡± Dad smiles. ¡°I¡¯d expect nothing less.¡± About an hourter, at 7pm, we start the two hour drive to Red River pack. Apparently Erebus has now stepped up to Alpha, so he¡¯ll be the weingmittee for my brothers and I. Thankfully we also have Samantha and some warriorsing with us, so it won¡¯t be lonely for me. I¡¯ve changed a lot in thest 18 months. I¡¯m 5¡¯5, a double D cup, a tiny waste but solid ass, toned legs, and lean but strong muscles everywhere. Waist- length chestnut colored hair. Bright green eyes. I¡¯m f*****g hot. My brothers constantly threaten off suiters. Hopefully Erebus won¡¯t recognize me. ¡°ANTHA! GET IN THE f*****g CAR!¡± I call out to my best friend my nickname for her. ¡°Coming, Mira!¡± she responds with my nickname. She swiftly drops her bag into the car and takes a seat in the passenger seat of my BMW X3. We listen to music the entire ride, and are mostly silent. ¡°I saw a skating rink on google in the red river territory.¡± Antha says. I nod. ¡°Yeah, I used to skate there. I¡¯m friends with the owner, hopefully he¡¯ll still let me skate after hours so I can blow off steam.¡± She nods. ¡°So you really can¡¯t feel the mate pull?¡± she blurts out. Iugh. ¡°No. Erebus can, but I don¡¯t feel s**t. The only way I¡¯ll actually start feeling it is if he marks me, which is definitely not going to happen.¡± ¡°I hope he rots in hell,¡± Antha asserts. ¡°Me too, babe. Me too.¡± Chapter 4 Chapter 4 Chapter Four Hello, again ¡°Hello, again¡± I ended up packing fairly lightly because I¡¯ll probably go shopping. Tomorrow we start at the high school here, hence why I ended up bringing my backpack and school supplies. If I¡¯m staying here long, I sure as s**t am going to keep doing well. Tomorrow is the first day after Thanksgiving break, so it¡¯s still pretty early in the school year. I shouldn¡¯t have any issues with the work. As Antha and I unload, I see my brothers pull up as well. Damon steps out of his car andes over to wrap me in a hug. The twins join. ¡°Are you okay, little sis?¡± I snort. ¡°I¡¯m fine, guys. I¡¯m going to run to the grocery store for my secret stash of junk food after putting away my S**t and then to the mall tomorrow after school for clothes with Antha. Then I¡¯ll get in touch with the owner of an ice skating rink here to see if I can use it after hours. I¡¯ll be plenty busy.¡± They let me out of the hug. ¡°Okay.¡± Damon says. ¡°Blood Warrior pack, you honor us with your presence. Please,e inside, and I¡¯ll show you to your respective rooms,¡± I hear Erebus¡¯s voice call out. Please don¡¯t recognize me. Please don¡¯t. Please, please, please don¡¯t. Antha hooks loops her arm in mine, and we go to the trunk of our car to get our stuff. ¡°Alpha Damon, Jason, Derick, thank you for sister. Where is she?¡± Erebus asks. f**k it. He¡¯ll find out sooner orter. After all, I do make a living by training weak wolves, and this pack is brimming with them. I move from behind the car with Antha , ¡°That¡¯s me,¡± I chirp. Erebus¡¯s eyes widen. ¡°Mine,¡± he says, causing me to smile falsely. ¡°Definitely. Now if you can show us to our rooms that would be great. And tomorrow, before school, my brothers and I will discuss training times and strategy¡¯s with you. Tam sharp, if you will.¡± Erebus is still staring me with love, adoration, and lust. ¡°Alpha, if you could take us to our rooms, that would be lovely.¡± ¡°Hey, Erebus, your dad wants to know if you- OH, S**t!¡± My brother, Brendon,es out of the packhouse and stops cold when he sees me. ¡°Little sis?¡± he asks quietly. ¡°Not anymore,¡± I singsong. ¡°Alright, either you show us to our rooms or we¡¯re done here,¡± Damon says in his alpha voice. The blood warrior pack is at the top of the hierarchy of packs, and demands respect from every other pack. Even our omegas are held in high regards. So Damon is kind of the Alpha of Alpha¡¯s, in a sense. When he speaks, others must obey. ¡°Umm, yes, of course. This way.¡± Erebus says hoarsely. As he leads us into the house Brendon grabs my arm. I wrench it out, pping him. ¡°Touch me again and it¡¯ll be thest thing you do for a long time.¡± I hiss before shoving him aside and walking into the house. After we¡¯re led to our rooms and I put away the few things I brought, I knock on Antha¡¯s door. She opens and smiles widely. ¡°Ready to go get food?¡± ¡°Yep¡± I say, popping the p. Cute. He¡¯s probably getting some roses for his girlfriend. I turn and walk to my car, hoping he doesn¡¯t see me, but no such luck. ¡°Amira?¡± I roll my eyes and turn around. ¡°Dickwad?¡± I respond. ¡°Can¡­ can we talk?¡± he asks. I smile. ¡°Of course! Tomorrow, 7 am. We¡¯re talking strategy, remember?¡± His face saddens. ¡°You know that¡¯s not what I mean.¡± I shrug. ¡°Sorry, sugar. The day I left this pack I decided that I no longer speak with assholes.¡± ¡°I¡¯ve changed,¡± he says. ¡°Yeah. And I s**t rainbows,¡± I respond with a smile before turning and walking to my car where Antha is watching with amusement I put my goodies in the trunk and drive away. At the packhouse I take the junk food to my room and make a secret stash beneath my clothes in one of my dresser drawers. No way the boys will find it here. ¡°Well, well, well. What do we have here¡± Damon says from behind me. ¡°S**t!¡± I squeak. ¡°Did you just Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. create a stash without sharing?¡± ¡°It was my money,¡± I say. ¡°It was your grandmas inheritance that she for some reason left to you and nobody else.¡± I shrug. ¡°She saw me getting beaten every day and assumed I deserved it. And, it¡¯s also from training runts. But who are you to talk, Mr. Multi Billionaire? I¡¯m at half yourworth, even though I¡¯m twice as good at training.¡± ¡°We are currently discussing cookies, not inheritance sizes,¡± Damon growls, not pleased with my insult. ¡®What¡¯s going on in here?¡± Jason and Derick ask from the doorway. ¡°Our baby sister made a stash of junk food without telling us.¡± Damon says dangerously. ¡°S**t!¡± I say at the looks that the twins get. I shove past them and run down the halls of the packhouse, and out to the I don¡¯t want to take the chase into the forest tonight, so I decide to have some fun with elements. Just as my brothers approach me I create a circle of fire around me. I¡¯ve learned how to control the fire so it doesn¡¯t hurt the surface it sits on, so there won¡¯t be any proof of this. ¡°Oh, that is so not fair! No magic powers when we¡¯re in a chase!¡± Derick yells above the roaring of the fire. ¡°I¡¯m sorry, what? I can¡¯t hear you!¡± I mock. ¡°Ugh. Okay lets just call a truce¡± Damon says. I heave a sigh of relief and put out the fire. ¡°Holy s**t¡± Thear a voice from the edge of the field call, All four of us snap our heads towards it, and see Erebus standing there dumbstruck.. ¡°Dad didn¡¯t tell them I¡¯m a white wolf?¡± I ask. ¡°He assumed you¡¯d want to spill the news.¡± Damon says. I groan. This definitely isn¡¯t the best way to inform Erebus of my powers. Follow my lead I mindlink the boys. ¡°Amira¡­ you¡¯re a¡­ a-¡°. ¡°A white wolf? Yes, I am.¡± I respond. Time to make the bastard regreti mindlink. ¡°Doesn¡¯t it suck that you could¡¯ve had a white wolf as your mate, Sugar?¡± | ask. ¡°Yeah. Now she¡¯s got a second chance mate out there somewhere¡­ and you¡¯ve got a forever broken mate bond. Your pack will probably die out.¡± ¡°YOU¡¯RE GETTING A SECOND CHANCE MATE?! NO! MINE!¡± Erebus yells, and runs at me. I flick my hand and make a wind shield that he runs right into, sending him flying back. ¡°That¡¯s right, Sugar. I have an alpha out there somewhere for me. The moon goddess decided that since my chosen I turn to my brothers. ¡°Boys, who do you think I¡¯ll choose.¡± ¡°Well, the first day you came home with us and we adopted you, you said that you would no longer associate with assholes or people who treat you like s**t. So I¡¯m quite sure that Erebus is out of the question.¡± I dissipate the wind shield, and walk towards Erebus, kneeling beside him. ¡°That¡¯s right, sugar. Shouldn¡¯t have treated me like you did.¡± Suddenly he grabs my wrist and spins me so that he¡¯s straddling me. ¡°You¡¯re mine¡± He whispers, nipping my earlobe. I ignore the pleasant feeling and attempt to douse him with water. Key word: attempt. ¡°What the hell¡­?¡± I mumble. ¡°That¡¯s right, my love. If your mate touches you and wills your powers away, the powers will automatically be blocked.¡± Sucks for him that I¡¯m an incredible fighter. I roll us over and hop onto my feet. ¡°I don¡¯t need my powers to get away from you.¡± I say. I thank heavens that my brothers didn¡¯t interfere, or else I wouldn¡¯t have asserted dominance. By goddess I did. ¡°Chips, brothers?¡± I ask. They snicker and follow me to my room. Chapter 5 Chapter 5 Chapter Five ¡°One thousand four hundred and thirty eight¡± The next morning I wake up at 6:15 and take a shower. Mornings have never been an issue for me. After showering and blow drying my hair I head to my closet to grab one of the three outfits I brought. Yeah, shopping is a must. It¡¯s a cute blue dress with a re skirt that goes about mid-thigh. I pair it with ck heels and a ck jean jacket, and grab my Michael Kors backpack already filled with my supplies, and head downstairs. To my surprise, both my brothers and Antha are already in the kitchen. Checking my apple watch I see that it¡¯s only 6:45. ¡°Well hello, my favorite brothers¡± I say to the boys, pecking them all on their heads. When I get to Antha she actually pulls me onto herp. Yeah, we¡¯re that close. The table they sit at has an assortment of breakfast foods on it, and everyone is enjoying themselves. ¡°Who cooked?¡± I ask. ¡°I did¡± Damon says. I must say I¡¯m impressed. Thear a big yawn as my pathetic excuse of a fake brother walks in. He looks up and freezes when he sees me. ¡°Mom? Dad?¡± He calls out. Why would fake mom and dad be in the packhouse? My dad rushes into the kitchen, followed by my mom. My mom is holding a baby. Two months old, tops. ¡°Oh, no¡± I whisper. Please don¡¯t let it be theirs. God, I wouldn¡¯t wish what I went through upon my worst enemy. ¡°Sweetheart?¡± My mom asks: ¡°Is she yours?¡± I ask. ¡°Yeah¡± My father responds. ¨C I get off of Samantha¡¯sp and walk over to them. ¡°Listen to me, and listen very well. What I went through drove me to suicide. Don¡¯t you dare let that happen to this little girl. Give her attention, love, and care. Make her feel like you will trust anything she tells you. Do the opposite of what you did with me. As the daughter of Alpha Anatol, that is a god damn order. If I hear a peep about her not getting cared for, I¡¯m taking her away from you. Am I clear?¡±. ¡°Daughter of Anatol?¡± My mom whispers, rocking my screaming little sister. ¡°Correct. And sister of next in line Alpha Damon.¡± Damon says, walking up to me. ¡°They adopted me. They¡¯re the family the goddess blessed me with after seeing how my blood rtives were not a family.¡± My sister starts screaming louder, making my heart ache. I hold out my arms. ¡°What¡¯s her name?¡± My mother passes her straight over. ¡°Meda. Her name is Meda.¡± As soon as Meda settles in my arms, she quiets and goes straight to sleep. I smile and feel a tear fall down my face. God, the love I feel for this tiny human that I met a minute ago is vast. ¡ª ¡°My beautiful little Meda.¡± I whisper. ¡°How did you do that?¡± My dad asks. I wipe my tear on my shoulder and look at him. ¡°I let her feel the love I have for her. That¡¯s how. As a big sister, this little girl is now one of my top priorities, like it or not. So regardless of what you want you are about to be seeing a lot more of me. Even if that means I take the two f*****g hour drive up here.¡± ¡°Sweetheart, why would we not want that?¡± My mother asks. ¡°You sure never wanted to see me for the first sixteen years of my life.¡± Iment. I see guilt pass over their .. . ¡°Show me how to properly prepare a bottle.¡± I request. My dad goes to fetch the bottle and powder, and shows me the ratio. He goes to put the bottle in the microwave but I stop him. ¡°No. Run it under warm water.¡± My mother and I say in unison. I nce at her, offering her a small smile. I quickly realize what I¡¯m doing and carefullypose my face into a nk mask. I clear my throat. ¡°Hand me the bottle, please.¡± My dad does as asked. Meda. She squirms a bit and I shush her lowly. ¡°It¡¯s okay, baby. Sissy¡¯s got you. You have nothing to worry about.¡± The squirming stops, and Meda promptly starts her breakfast. ¡°Alright. While the baby¡¯s eating, who wants to feed me?¡± I ask the boys. Jason groans. ¡°I¡¯ll do it.¡± He loads up a te of pancakes and bacon, and baby feeds me bites. I pull back and giggle. ¡°This is hrious. I¡¯m feeding a baby while getting fed like a baby.¡± Iment, causing my real family to chuckle. My parents look at me in shock. ¡°You¡¯re letting someone feed you?¡± They ask. I shrug. ¡°When I trust someone enough to help me, and I need the help, I ask for it. In five minutes we have a meeting and then school. If feeding my little sister means I need to be spoon fed, so be it.¡± The energy in the room changes as Erebus walks in, and Meda stirs. ¡°Shhhh, it¡¯s okay, baby. Ignore the big bad alpha, Mira¡¯s got you.¡± Again, she calms down. As soon as Jason feeds me another bight I hear Erebus growl. ¡°Mine!¡± he says, stepping towards me. I manage to actually douse him with water by catching him off guard, watching with a satisfied smirk as he tries to shake it off. ¡°There is a child in the room. Shut the hell up¡± | hiss before taking another bite from the fork Jason offers. ¡°The only man feeding you should be me! You¡¯re mine, damnit!¡± ¡°Jason is my brother, Erebus. And either way, I am not yours. So brass off before I set your bum on fire!¡± ¡°Excellent censoring¡±. Damonmands. ¨C ¡°I¡¯m not swearing in front of a baby¡± I respond. Five minutester everyone in the room is done eating, including Meda and I. ¡°Do you live in the packhouse?¡± I question. My father nods. ¡°Brendon is third inmand, and our house burned down about a year ago. So we live here.¡± I nce over at Brendon, who¡¯s been watching this whole thing silently. ¡°Fine. I¡¯m going to pick up Meda at some point today and take her on a walk in the park. I¡¯ll text you with at least a half hour heads up.¡± arms, she starts crying. ¡°For the love, mother! Do you love her?!¡± My mother nods. ¡°Then center that love. Allow it to leak through your chest and into her tiny body. The energy you give off is crucial!¡± My mother takes a few deep breaths, and follows directions. Meda quiets down. She doesn¡¯t look as peaceful as she was in my arms, but she doesn¡¯t look miserable, either. ¡°Brothers, Alpha, let¡¯s talk strategy. Is there an office we can go to?¡± Thirty minutester we¡¯ve discussed training times, ces, and courses. ¡°Alright. Now that we have that out of the way, Antha and I are going to head to school. Later we¡¯re going to the mall, probably pick out a cute guy to fool around with for a few hours, and thene back. Any objections?¡± ¡°Has anyone ever told you how annoying you are? You¡¯re ridiculously annoying. I am going to fool Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. around with whoever the f**k I want. You want to know why? Because I¡¯m hot as f**k and guys throw themselves at me. Hell, I¡¯m picky as s**t and I still always have a guy avable. Get it through your skull, Erebus. I slit my wrists because of you and your pack bullies. If Damon hadn¡¯t found me, I¡¯d be dead. If he hadn¡¯t adopted me, I¡¯d be dead. My new family, real family, have given me the confidence I¡¯vecked yet always deserved. So do everyone a favor and go mark a pack slut. Hopefully that¡¯ll get you off of my back.¡± Erebus¡¯s eyes darken. ¡°I will never mark or touch a woman that isn¡¯t you. You are mine, and I will have you. That¡¯s a promise.¡± ¡°Alright, both of you shut the f**k up. Erebus, if you hurt my sister, I¡¯ll kill you and have one of my brothers rece you as Alpha. Mira, if you fool around with a guy I don¡¯t approve of, I¡¯ll make you watch while I break most of his bones. Are we clear?¡± I gulp. There¡¯s a reason Damon¡¯s known as a ruthless Alpha. ¡°Clear as day¡± I squeak out. ¡°Good.¡± With those words Damon lifts me up, throws me over his shoulder, and walks out of the room. ¡°What the f**k, Damon!?¡± ¡°You were pissing me off. When you piss me off, I piss you off.¡± ¡°Ouch¡± I hear Brendon say in the distance. Damon sets me down, and I see Brendon at the end of the hallway we¡¯re walking down. ¡°Was I really that bad?¡± He asks. ¡°One thousand, four hundred, and thirty eight.¡± I say. ¡°What?¡± He asks, confused. ¡°That¡¯s the amount of times you hit me. All of the kicks, punches, ps, scratches, cuts- add up to one thousand four hundred and thirty eight. Out of that I have forty five scars. Forty eight times you hurt me enough that I scarred. Even as a wolf.¡± Brendon looks down. ¡°You counted?¡± He whispers. ¡°Yes. Every single time you beat me, I counted each hit. I kept a tally in my journal.¡± ¡°I hit you that many times?¡± ¡°Yes. And every time you hit me it left a mark. Thank god only forty eight marks remain.¡± ¡°And you never once hit me back¡± he says, remembering. I walk right up to him. ¡°That¡¯s right. Because despite my wish that I wasn¡¯t rted to you, you¡¯re blood. You¡¯re technically family. And it is against my morals to hurt family.¡±. ¡°It¡¯s against any good person¡¯s morals to hurt their own. Your sister was so beaten down when my family adopted her that we were scared she couldn¡¯t be built back up. It was her little spurts of sass that kept us encouraged that if we Has dozens of modeling contracts offered on a regr basis. Top of every ss, everybody¡¯s favorite. A f*****g white wolf. You could have been there for all of that. You should have been there. But instead of the love she deserved to be shown by you, she was hit 1,438 times.¡± Damon says. There are tears threatening to fall, but I hold them back. My fake brother doesn¡¯t deserve to be cried over. ¡°Amira, I know I f****d up egregiously. The moment I saw the letter, I freaked out. Despite everything, I love you¡­ So much. What I did was uneptable, and I scold myself every single day for it. S**t, mom and dad scold me every single day.

If you weren¡¯t blood, I¡¯d beat the living s**t on you, and then set your ass on fire. But we came from the same parents, and I will not hurt blood, or family. Count your lucky stars that one of us has morals. ¡°You hit her over fourteen hundred times?!¡± I hear my dads voice roar from behind me. I see that he¡¯s holding Meda. ¡°Put the baby away if you¡¯re going to have it out with the son you failed to raise¡± I say before grabbing Jason and Derick¡¯s arms, and walking away with my real brothers. Chapter 6 Chapter 6 Chapter Six ¡°Move, dickwad!¡± Erebus POV Jesus f*****g Christ. Every time I look at her, at my perfect mate, all I want to do is hug her, hold her, mark her, tie her down and f**k her into next week. I want her to sit on myp. /want to feed her. I want her to be feeding our pups. I want everything with her. When she¡¯s near, everything stops- and my whole universe revolves around her. Amira has always been a gorgeous girl, and has always had spirit, even when I almost beat it out of her. Now she¡¯s even more gorgeous, if that¡¯s possible, and she¡¯s mine. Whether or not she thinks so, she is mine and I will make her mine. I really have changed since she left. I¡¯ve started seriously reprimanding anyone who I see that bullies another person, pack member or not. I¡¯ve made sure that everyone in the pack knows that Amira is my mate, and everyone was meant to try their best to find her. I took ountability for my actions in front of my parents before I became Alpha. I¡¯ve done everything I can to atone for my sins. But my greatest challenge yet is to no just mark Amira by force. I know as soon as she¡¯s marked that she¡¯ll feel the bond, so I want to tie her down, mark her, and mate her. But I know that would be cheating. I need to win her back the right way. But who¡¯s to say the right way doesn¡¯t involve a bit of seduction? I pull up to the school in time to see Amira step out of her car with her best friend, Samantha. The blue Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. dress she wearsplements her gorgeous figure and endless legs. It takes all of my power not to reach out and grab her tiny waist, stering her body against mine. Her friend whispers something in her ear and Amira throws her head back inughter. The sound is music to my ears, and her smile is the most gorgeous thing I¡¯ve ever set eyes on. I can¡¯t wait to be the one to make her smile. I watch Damon walk up behind her and scare her. She turns around and cuffs him, making meugh. Then I see as her facial expression turns to fear and she tries to run, but is held back by the twins who hold her in ce as Damon tickles her. ¡°You d**k!¡± I hear her squeal. When they finally finish torturing her she jumps on Damon¡¯s back. I start walking towards the school, following behind them so I can hear better. ¡°Amira, you are perfectly capable of walking. ¡°You¡¯re the one who tickled me! Now I¡¯m tired! So you get to carry me. Don¡¯t be such a baby, I weight like 125.¡± ¡°Okay, you f*****g monkey. Let¡¯s go.¡± ¡°Love you, Damon.¡± ¡°Love you too, lil sis.¡± ¡°Hey, where¡¯s my love?¡± Jason asks. ¡°Up your ass and around the corner. But I do love Derick.¡± ¡°Oh, you¡¯re so dead!¡± Jason exims. Amira hops off of Damon¡¯s back and races into the school. ¡°How did we get so lucky with a sister like her?¡± ¡°Her misfortune turned into our fortune, and then her fortune by extension. I really wish she was born into our family so that she wouldn¡¯t have had to endure all of the S**t this pack gave her.¡± ¡°Yeah. If I didn¡¯t know she¡¯d kick my ass, I¡¯d keep her behind me at all times and be yelling at anyone who even looks at her funny.¡± Damon says. ¡°Too bad she¡¯s a white wolf and can take out everyone except her f*****g mate.¡± Derick interjects. ¡°We¡¯ll help her search for her second chance mate once we¡¯re done here. A few months, fes. She can make out with whoever and do whatever, as long as her ultimate innocence stays intact, there¡¯s no issues.¡± Jason says. Damon scoffs. ¡°Even if she wasn¡¯t a virgin, she¡¯s a f*****g white wolf. Any wolf would kill to have her.¡± ¡°Do you think she¡¯d ever give her old family or Erebus a chance?¡± Derick questions quietly. ¡°Family? Yes. She¡¯s too loving to hold off much longer. The Alpha who drove her to suicide? Not sure. If she does I¡¯d be highly apprehensive, but he really seems like he regrets his actions. So if she chooses to give him a chance, I¡¯ll be there for her. But if her hurts her again, I¡¯ll kill him.¡± Damon responds. Amira will give me another chance. I trust in the mate bond. As I walk into the school building, I¡¯m immediately pushed back by someone running down the hallway. I look up to see that it¡¯s none other than Amira.! ¡°Move, dickwad!¡± She throws over her shoulder at me. I then look to see the twins and Damon chasing after her. When did they have a chance to start this chase? I was following them two minutes ago! I follow them just to see where they¡¯re going and what¡¯ll go down. Eventually Amira takes a turn into a hallways with a dead end. She probably forgot about the dead end Sure enough I hear a ¡°f**k!¡± from the hallway and see the boys run down it. I turn into the hall as well to watch the showdown. ¡°Okay, listen! You know my control of the elements isn¡¯t mastered! I only meant to ssh a little water on you, not a bucket¡¯s worth!¡± It¡¯s at that moment that I notice all three of them appear to have wet hair and clothes. S**t, my mate is talented. ¡°No magic in the school.¡± Damon asserts. ¡°When you do use the magic, you need to be taught a lesson.¡± I watch as my mate stands tall and crosses her arms over her chest. ¡°I¡¯m not ticklish anymore.¡± She states proudly. ¡°Yeah? What changed since yesterday?¡± Derick taunts. ¡°Stuff.¡± She responds. ¡°So you don¡¯t mind if we test that theory?¡± Jason questions. ¡°Be my guest¡± my beautiful mate offers. The three boys approach her, and suddenly she goes into fight mode. She is a blur of motion as she ends up getting the twins on the ground. Then Damon lunges at her, and she f*****g jumps over him and starts running. ¡°You little b***h!¡± Damon exims. ¡°That¡¯s not a very nice thing to say!¡± she yells back at him. She then ends up running straight into me, sending us both tumbling to the ground. I make sure to cushion her fall. ¡°Oh my goddess! For years you¡¯ve been a barrier, and Ie back for one day and you¡¯re getting in my way again? Piss off!¡± Suddenly she¡¯s being lifted off of me and thrown over Damon¡¯s shoulder. ¡°Well, maybe you are good for something, hmm? Thanks for catching my little sister. I¡¯ve got it from here.¡± Damon says. I stand up, chuckling. ¡°If it gives me a chance to hold her, even for a second, I¡¯ll join in any time.¡± Damon¡¯s eyes soften slightly. I hope he hears the sincerity in my voice. The moment is broken when Amira squeaks out ¡°We¡¯re going to bete!¡± Damon starts carrying her down the hall. ¡°You prick! I can flipping walk!¡± she scolds, but he ignores her. I can¡¯t wait to truly have her. Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Chapter Seven ¡°I¡¯m not your Luna¡± Amira POV ¡°You prick! I can flipping walk!¡± I tell Damon, but he ignores me and keeps walking until we¡¯re at our lockers. The twins follow behind, smirking at me. When he finally sets me down I grab¡¯my backpack out of my locker. I managed to stuff it in there right before the silly prank I attempted to y, that got a bit out of hand. ¡°We¡¯re still getting you back for thatter¡± Derick warns. ¡°Whatever you need to tell yourself, sweetie¡± I say, pinching his cheek. He swats away my hand and I turn on my heel to get to my first period- AP English. I walk in like I own the ce, just to be stopped by the teacher- Gina. I¡¯ve always been on a first name basis with all of my instructors ¡°Ah, new student Care to introduce yourself?¡± She asks. ¡°Sure¡± I say pleasantly,ughing internally that she doesn¡¯t remember me. She is one of the teachers I left a letter to. ¡°Alright ss, listen up. We have a new student here who¡¯s going to introduce herself.¡± Gina states. I briefly nce around the room to analyze it, as I do in any room I walk into. With one nce l identify the internal structure, possible threats, potential hiding spots, etc. Being a white wolf gives me all the necessary reflexes. ¡°Hi. All of you actually know me, but I¡¯ve changed. My name is Amira Warner. I¡¯m 17 years old. I was bullied by all of you until I attempted to slit my wrists about a year and a half back. The Alpha of the Blood Warrior pack found me while I was bleeding out and his family adopted me. Now I¡¯m back to train the pathetic warriors of this pack.¡±N?velDrama.Org exclusive content. *Amira?¡± Gina whispers. I turn to her and smile. ¡°Hey, Gina. I¡¯ve missed you.¡± She pulls me into a tight hug ¡°My heavens, I¡¯ve missed you too. Never leave like that again!¡± I pull away and smile. ¡°Duly noted.¡± ¡°Luna¡± the entire ss says in unison, bowing their heads. Iugh lightly. ¡°Oh my goodness! You guys think I¡¯d lend my help to this pack after how I was treated? Oh boy, that¡¯s priceless. No, you don¡¯t deserve my help. You guys can figure out your.S**t on your own. The selfless and kind girl I was died when I slit my wrists. This pack can crumble for all I care. Of course the few that treated me well, and my family even though they don¡¯t deserve it, are wee toe join Blood Warriors. But the rest of you? Kindly brass off.¡± ¡°Well, boy am I d I transferred into your ss¡± I hear Derick say from the doorway. Hees in and drapes an arm around my shoulder. ¡°Hello, Red River pack. I¡¯m Derick, brother to Amira. Not by blood, but by adoption.¡± ¡°My real brother¡± I add. He smiles and kisses my cheek, eliciting a growl from Erebus in the back. ¡°Alright. You two can take a seat wherever.¡± Gina says. Derick and I walk to the back row. I take the corner seat by the window and he takes the one next to me. I pull out myptop and get ready to start taking notes. When ss ends I identally push over my backpack and it¡¯s contents spill onto the floor. ¡°Aw, shit.¡± I say. Derick bends to help but I tell him that I¡¯ve got it and I¡¯ll see him at lunch. Once I finish I start going to AP history, mumbling about how clumsy I still am, when suddenly a pair of arms grab me and push me against a wall. I look up and into the eyes of Erebus. ¡°What?¡± I ask in an annoyed tone. ¡°You¡¯re mine, and I love you.¡± He responds as if it¡¯s the most simple thing in the world. ¡°Man, that must be a shitty feeling. Loving someone who will never love you back.¡± Iment lightly before shoving him off of me. ¡°Mate. Mine.¡± Erebus growls, making a grab for me. I shove him away and swiftly create an orb of fire in my hands. ¡°Ever been hit by an orb of fire? It hurts like a b***h. Leave me alone or you¡¯ll find out exactly how unpleasant it is.¡± | -unti rrun uv juu piui VI vvllly vui !¡± juuu niven yuu. ¡°Want to bet?¡± I ask, loosing my patience. ¡°Yes. I do.¡± Instead of beating the s**t out of him, a smile forms on my face. ¡°Okay. Meet me in the training field behind the packhouse after school.¡± I say in an upbeat tone. He frowns slightly ¡°Okay¡­¡± ¡°Bye!¡± With that, I turn and walk away. The rest of school is fairly dull, other than reuniting with my favorite teachers and the principal. As soon as I get home I change straight into a training outfit. I go with a loose white crop top, white shorts, and ck sneakers, with a ck hoodie to top everything off in case I get cold. I trot into the back yard, ready to teach my dickwad of a mate a lesson. I bump into Damon on the way. ¡°Where are you running off to? Training doesn¡¯t start for another ten minutes.¡± ¡°To teach dickwad a lesson¡± I say with a sweet smile. ¡°Jason! Derick! Go with Amira to make sure she doesn¡¯t kill Erebus!¡± Damon calls out. ¡°Overprotective asshole¡± I mutter, causing him tough. Derick and Jason show up behind me just as I¡¯m leaving the house. ¡°You need your guard dogs to take me down?¡± Erebus taunts from the middle of the field. I smile. ¡°No. They¡¯re here to make sure I don¡¯t hurt you beyond repair.¡± Erebus smiles in return. ¡°Show me what you¡¯ve got.¡± Before he can even finish his sentence, a dangerous storm starts brewing above us. ¡°Unfortunately, with you being my mate, I can¡¯t directly hurt you. However if I cause a storm, and lightning just happened to strike you? That wouldn¡¯t be my doing.¡± I say. With a snap of my finger, I bring down a lightning bolt right in front of him. ¡°Still want to challenge me?¡± I question. He stares into my eyes. ¡°You wouldn¡¯t hurt your mate. I grew up with you, I would know.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t kill him¡± Derick whispers in my ear. With an annoyed sigh I strike Erebus with a low-voltage lightning bolt. With wolf healing he¡¯ll be over it within the hour. He drops to the ground with a shout of agony, and I walk over, kneeling down beside his curled up form. ¡°The Amira you¡¯re referring to died when she slit her wrists. This is a new me. I will never, ever be that docile and kind girl again. I kill without a second thought and torture with a smile on my face. I don¡¯t give a f**k about hurting innocent people if they get in my way. Trust me, Erebus, you don¡¯t even want me as your mate. Because I will kill you in your sleep without a second thought.¡± I stand up and walk away from him, making sure Erebus doesn¡¯t see the tears that are now streaming down my face. The majority of what I said was either a darkened truth or tant lie. Yes, the old me died when I tried to kill myself. But that doesn¡¯t mean the new me is heartless.¡± I kill without a second thought when I know that my target needs to be eliminated for a crime they torture. I will never intentionally hurt an innocent person. Even if I¡¯m chasing someone down, I will do my best to avoid hurting anyone who happens to be in my path. And most of all? It takes a lot for me to verbally demean someone, and I always draw a strict line. I would rather die than hurt someone enough for them to try to kill themselves like I once did. So striking down Erebus? Hurt me like no other. Sure, he deserved it. Sure, he taunted me and forced me into disying my strength. Yet, on top of all that, he is an alpha, and appears to care about his pack. That makes him more innocent than guilty. I do my best to set aside how he once treated me for logistic reasons, though I will never forgive him. Still, at the end of the day, he is my mate. I haven¡¯t found my second chance yet. Although I never wanted a mate in the red river pack, I did always fantasize about feeling tingles and having someone love and care about me above anything else. It still makes me sad to hurt him not because of the bond- which I genuinely don¡¯t feel- but because of the fact that at the end of the day he is my mate. Jason and Derick know not to say anything so that Erebus doesn¡¯t find out how much hurting him hurt me. Instead they silently follow me into the packhouse and my room. No matter how bad I¡¯ve been hurt, It¡¯s still hard for me to hurt back. I guess that¡¯s just part of the nature of a white wolf. When we get to my room I plop down on the bed and the twins sit on the edge of it. ¡°Amira¡± Derick starts, but I hold up a hand to cut him off. Five minutes of silence pass, and then I hear a knock on the door. I assume it¡¯s Damon but am proved wrong when it¡¯s opened to reveal Brendon. He takes a few steps in. ¡°Hey, little sis-¡± Oh he did not just call me little sis. He has no f*****g right to do that. The amount of times he hurt me? Abused me? He doesn¡¯t get to call me his sister. I create a wall of wind and use it to throw him against a wall. He hits the wall with an unpleasant sounding thump. ¡°Get the f**k out of this room before I set you on fire, Brendon. And if I ever hear you refer to me as a sister again, I will set you on fire, and will enjoy watching you burn. Are we clear?¡± Brendon lets out a sigh. ¡°I¡¯m not giving up on you, Amira. At the end of the day, we¡¯re still blood. And blood sticks together.¡± ¡°Get the f**k out, Brendon. Training starts¡­ like¡­ now.¡± With that Brendon leaves and I get up, walking out of the room with the twins on my tail. Chapter 8 Chapter 8 Chapter Eight ¡°Weak¡± Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Training goes by, and all it disys is that the pack is truly pathetic and weak. I don¡¯t think it would be wise for me to attend trainings for now, because I know that I would spend the entire training insulting my old pack. They aren¡¯t ready to be trained by me yet, and I would spend the training time yelling at them. Once the initial session isplete and we send the pack members home, I call a meeting with Damon and Erebus to let them know that it wouldn¡¯t be wise for me to attend trainings until the fuckers are ready for me to go in on them. I¡¯m nning on going for a run soon, before heading to the shopping mall with Antha. I¡¯m also going to drop the news that I¡¯m nning on staying in a hotel from now on in order to distance myself from the pack, so that I don¡¯t start any fights or strike anyone down. As Damon, Erebus and I enter the forest in an ufortable silence, I decide to break it. ¡°Alright, I have a few things to say. If both of you can be quiet until the end, I would appreciate that. First of all, I f*****g hate this pack. Because of that fact I¡¯m going to stay away from trainings until the wolfs are ready to be trained by me, otherwise I know all I¡¯ll do is insult everyone. I¡¯ll join trainings once everyone¡¯s at a skill level where they¡¯re ready for my training. Second of all, I can¡¯t stay in the packhouse. It brings back too many memories, and frankly I don¡¯t have time for such bullshit. So I will be staying in a hotel likely for the remainder of my stay in the pack. I don¡¯t know if Samantha will join me yet, I¡¯ll take that up with her. Third of all, and most importantly, Erebus- instruct your pack to stop calling me Luna. I am not and never will be Luna of this pack. I have more substantial and important things to do with my time rather than help the people who drove me to suicide. If either of you have any concerns orments, now is the time to say them. I will not listenter.¡± Damon speaks first. ¡°I think that¡¯s fair. I don¡¯t love the idea of you staying in a hotel alone, so I might send the twins with you or join you myself. Either way I¡¯ll rent out a few rooms in case any of us want to join you from time to time.¡± ¡ªInod in acknowledgement of Damon¡¯s terms. Then I turn to Erebus, who has been eerily quiet. His face is a neutral and impassive mask, but something tells me that it¡¯s a fa?ade. ¡°Erebus, if you have an issue, I¡¯m giving you the chance to discuss it now. I won¡¯t listenter.¡± He makes eye contact with me before uttering the one word that I can¡¯t stand when it is directed at me. ¡°No.¡± Simply stated, with a thousand meanings behind it. I p my hands together behind my back, halting mid-step. ¡°Exin yourself.¡± Erebus shes a smile at me. ¡°I said no, Amira. I am not okay with this. The training I suppose I can understand. But the hotel? No. You are my mate and I want you near me so that I can protect you. And asking me to inform the pack to not call you Luna? Not happening. You are my Luna, my queen, and my everything. We will be together and mate. The sooner you ept that the better.¡± I scoff. ¡°That¡¯s not your f*****g choice, Erebus! Or have you not noticed that I feel absolutely nothing towards you? The only way I¡¯ll ever feel anything for you is if you mark me, and I¡¯d rather die than have that. I go where I want, when I want, with who I want. And you know why that is? It¡¯s that way because nobody can f*****g stop me! So get over your little fantasy of us ever being a thing! I¡¯ll try tomit suicide again before agreeing to be with you.¡± ¡°Who says you have to agree? And I have no problem putting you on suicide watch, so don¡¯t even think about offing yourself. You are too precious to this world to lose.¡± ¡°Are you insinuating that you¡¯re going to mark my sister without her permission?¡± Damon asks dangerously. ¡°I¡¯m insinuating that it¡¯s a solid possibility if she doesn¡¯t ept me in the rather near future!¡± Erebus snaps in return. I¡¯m about to intervene when I hear the cry of a little girl in the distance. Without pause my motherly instincts kick in and I run in the direction of the cries. Ever since I shifted for the first time I¡¯ve had a very strong motherly streak. When ites to kids I always feel some sort of responsibility to make sure that they are alright. ¡°Hi, sweetheart. Are you alright?¡± I question. She sniffles. She looks to be about six years old or so. ¡°My mama told me I could go y so I came here. I got lost and wanted to climb a tree to be able to see where home is, but fell off and my ankle hurts¡± she says, stuttering over her words. I get closer to her and sit down next to her. ¡°Can I take a look at your ankle?¡± I ask quietly. She nods at me, a few more tears escaping. ¡°Is it okay if you sit in myp?¡± I ask her. With kids I alwaysmunicate carefully and clearly, so to make sure that I don¡¯t scare them identally. With another sniffle she offers me a shy nod. I carefully scoop her up and sit her on myp before rolling up her pants and taking a look at her ankle. Ouch. It¡¯s definitely sprained, but thankfully not broken. ¡°What¡¯s your name?¡± I ask her. ¡°Ariel¡± she tells me, tears streaming down her face. ¡°Okay, Ariel. Is it okay if I take you to the packhouse and your parents can pick you up from there?¡± I ask her with a gentle smile. Upon her nod I scoop her up. When I look up from her I see Damon and Erebus looking at me, Erebus staring with his jaw dropped. ¡°You¡¯re going to be the perfect mother to our pups¡± he tells me with a wide smile. Although I¡¯d love to curse at him, 1 decide against it. ¡°No. We won¡¯t be doing anything together let alone having pups:¡± I tell him before taking Ariel back to the packhouse. Upon walking in I¡¯m met with the past Alpha and Luna of this pack. They never treated me poorly, but they never paid any mind to me getting bullied. ¡°Amira¡± The Alpha, Soren, says. ¡°I¡¯ve been wanting to catch you¡­ I just want to offer my deepest apologies for what you went through in this pack.¡± The sincerity in his voice does nothing to quell my anger. ¡°The child I¡¯m holding, Ariel, got lost in the woods. Please contact her mother and father, and have someone bring me a first aid kit so that I can take care of her injury. I¡¯ll be in the family room.¡± With those words I walk past the two people that ignored my torment and into the family room of the pack house. It takes about twenty minutes for a couple to burst into the room. By that time I¡¯ve bandaged Ariel¡¯s ankle and am ying card games with her. ¡°Oh, my baby!¡± The woman exims, running towards us. She scoops Ariel up and looks at me. ¡°Luna, thank you so much for this. I.. I¡¯don¡¯t know how to thank you.¡± 1 stand up and smile at the woman and man who¡¯s now standing next to her. ¡°It¡¯s not a problem. But please don¡¯t call me Luna.¡± I see the woman and man¡¯s faces fall, but don¡¯t say anything. I have absolutely no need to exin myself to them. ¡°Of course. Thank you again.¡± The man says before they walk out. Just as they leave the room, Erebus strolls in. ¡°You¡¯re breaking their hearts, you know.¡± He tells me, crossing his arms over his chest. In thest twenty minutes he¡¯s showered and changed into what I assume is his normal attire outside of school: a white button up and ck cks. An alpha must always look professional unless otherwise necessary. I shrug. ¡°There was a time in my life that something like breaking another¡¯s heart would matter. That time ended the day I slit my wrists due to personal heartbreak.¡± I say impassively. Erebus leans against the doorframe, crossing one foot over the other, and folds his arms. I can see his gorgeous muscles bulging from underneath the shirt. f**k, despite all he¡¯s put me through, I gotta admit that he is one hot piece of ass. If it wasn¡¯t for our history I would happily make out with him. S**t, I might make out with him at some point just for the hell of it- no strings attached. ¡°I call bullshit¡± he says smoothly. I shrug. ¡°Okay. Have fun calling it that.¡± With that I attempt to walk past him but don¡¯t get very far due to him grabbing me, spinning me around, and pinning me against the wall. His forehead is nearly touching mine as his arms pin mine by my sides. ¡°You may not feel the mate bond, Amira, but I can guarantee that you¡¯ll begin feeling attraction. Perhaps you don¡¯t know, but I am known as somewhat of a s*x god.¡± He nuzzles my neck and nips my sweet spot, causing me to jump slightly. ¡°I can make you feel things you¡¯ve never felt- just with my hands. And when my mouth gets involved? Well.. You won¡¯t be able to think for a week. And don¡¯t even get me started on all of the punishments you¡¯ve earned¡­ Ever heard of overstimtion? Many guys like to punish with an excess of pain, but Irgely prefer pleasure. A spanking is always satisfying but making youe over and over again, without any reprieve¡­ Well- there¡¯s nothing that¡¯s more of a punishment than that.¡± I have to suppress a shiver at everything he¡¯s saying. God, it¡¯s so hot. He¡¯s so hot, and I have no problem admitting that. But anything that ever happens between us will be nothing more than harmless fooling around. Erebus leans his forehead against mine, and that¡¯s when I snap out of whatever bullshit trance I¡¯m in. I try to shove him away, but he doesn¡¯t budge. And f**k me, he has me in a totally vulnerable and helpless position. At the end of the day he will always be able to overpower me¡­ And there¡¯s nothing I can do about it. He backs up slightly, looking exasperated and hurt. ¡°I¡¯ll never give up, Amira. Ever.¡± He tells me before walking away. Ha. Sucks for him. Chapter 9 Chapter 9 Chapter Nine ¡°Mate¡± As I run upstairs to my room to collect my credit card and get ready for shopping, I get a call from my dad. My real dad, Alpha Anatol. I pick it up immediately. ¡°Hey papa. What¡¯s up?¡± I ask him cheerily. ¡°Darling. After what Damon told me about the packsck of training, I¡¯ve decided to send another packs Alpha and select few warriors to help you.¡± Excellent decision. At the end of the day Anatol is basically the Alpha of Alpha¡¯s, so everyone listens to him. ¡°Okay. Who¡¯s the pack and what would you like me to do?¡± I question. ¡°It¡¯s the Oak Wood pack. The soon to be Alpha of it, Christian, will being along with his beta and third. They should be arriving within a few hours, and I believe they¡¯ll be staying in the same hotel you are. So please y nice with them and try to make friends.¡± ¡­ How does he know I¡¯m staying in a hotel? And what hotel I¡¯m staying in? Ah, f**k it. He¡¯s Alpha Anatol- he knows everything ¡°Okay, papa. I was just going to go shopping with Antha and move into the hotel. Is it okay if I perhaps go to dinner with his men and bring the brothers tonight?¡± ¡°That¡¯s a lovely idea, sweetheart. Thave to go, but coordinate with Damon. He¡¯ll take care of things.¡± As soon as Thang up Damon strolls into the room, giving me the perfect opportunity to inform him. ¡°Yeah, I knew he wasing. I¡¯ll make reservations at a stake house and send you the info. Anyways, are you sure you want to move out?¡± 1 shoot Damon a look. ¡°Yes, I¡¯m positive.¡± After he leaves 1 pack up the things that I only unpacked yesterday. Thank heavens I didn¡¯t take much to begin with. I tell Antha to meet at the shopping mall in an hour so I can go settle into my hotel. I¡¯m staying at the Grand America, best hotel in the area. I ended up getting a royal suite, so it¡¯s basically like an apartment. After unpacking everything I head over to the shopping mall where I meet Anth?. One of the few things that Antha and I bondin is clothing taste. We both have a strange mix of styles we like. We both like the jeans and crop top look, but we also like business formal looks, dresses, etc. In many ways I¡¯m a tom boy, but when ites to shopping, makeup, and a select few other things? I¡¯m a total girly girl. We hit stores like forever 21 before moving on to high end ones. Two hourster I have more bags than I can carry, and have to go home to get ready for the dinner. Antha and I part ways with a hug. Upon getting home I put away all of my new clothes nicely before getting ready. I don¡¯t like going heavy on makeup so I generally just go for my signature red lipstick, winged eye, and bit of mascara. I¡¯ll sometimes use more products, but I never use foundation or concealer. I just don¡¯t need it. An hour and a halfter I arrive at the steakhouse. I¡¯m about fifteen minuteste, but I¡¯m sure Damon knew I would be. I¡¯m not someone who often gives two shits about punctuality. As the waiter shows me to my table, a single wordes to my mind. -. Mate. f**k, is Erebus here? Once I¡¯m close enough to the table I do a brief scan. Unfortunately Erebus is there, but that¡¯s not who I¡¯m feeling a pull towards No, it¡¯s the man sitting next to Damon, exuding Alpha energy. It¡¯s Christian. Ladies and gentlemen, I have found my second chance mate. And holy f**k, the mate pull is strong. Christian is staring at me with a look of pure adoration, with a good amount of lust mixed in there, and I¡¯m sure I¡¯m staring back with ¡°Mate¡± Christian whispers.. ¡°Mate¡± I concede. I was dreading the moment I found my second chance mate-but I am definitely not anymore. I mean, S**t, this man is as gorgeous as Erebus. Dark brown hair, piercing green eyes, strong jawline and pure masculinity¡­ I don¡¯t even realize he¡¯s stood up and is walking towards me until I feel his arms snake around my waist and his forehead press to mine.. ¡°So f*****g gorgeous¡± he whispers before iming my lips in a dominating and delicious kiss. ¡°Oh you have got to be f*****g kidding me!¡± I hear Erebus growl from the table, breaking my moment with Christian. ¡°Hold your tongue, Erebus! You don¡¯t deserve her, and now she¡¯s mine. f*****g deal with it!¡± Christian snaps. Well, I guess everyone now knows the story of Erebus and I. Erebus¡¯s hands clench into fists and I can see he¡¯s fighting to keep some semnce ofposure. ¡°She¡¯s mine, Christian. You will receive the respect you deserve while training my pack members, but Amira belongs to me.¡± Before Christian can respond I press my lips to his, causing him to visibly rx. Once we pull apart he takes my hand and leads me to the table. Texpect him to pull out a chair for me but instead he sits down and pulls me onto hisp. The dress with a re skirt I¡¯m wearing rides up, and I quickly adjust it, pulling it down. In doing so I identally rub myself against Christian in a rather seductive manner, and he growls while leaning closer to me. ¡°Do that again and I¡¯ll take you right here¡± he says, giving my neck a little bite. The entirety of dinner Christian can¡¯t keep his hands off me- and Erebus can¡¯t keep his eyes off me. Once dinner ends, Erebus speaks up. ¡°Alpha Christian, Amira, if I may have a word. Please stay seated.¡± Christians men look at him questioningly and he nods ever so slightly, signaling them to lead. ¡°I¡¯ll go ahead and cut the S**t. White wolves are known to have 2+ mates, and are known for being shared amongst them. The way I see it, is that you and I will have to share her.¡± Erebus says, speaking to Christian. I snort, but Christian remainsposed. An ufortable silence stretches out for a few minutes before he finally speaks up. ¡°I honestly didn¡¯t think about that, but I suppose you are correct. I¡¯m fine with sharing, if that is what the moon goddess chose.¡± I stand from Christian¡¯sp as if it¡¯s made of fire. ¡°No¡­ no! You¡¯ve got to be shitting me! Do you know that I attempted suicide because of him?¡± I question Christian. ¡°Baby, I can tell he¡¯s changed from the guy who once hurt you, because that alpha looks like he would rather die than let anything happen to you.. And I can also tell that we¡¯re meant to share you. I don¡¯t f**k with fate. If this is our destiny, this is it. I¡¯m not fighting it.¡± I scoff. Is he f*****g serious? ¡°Oh my god. I get one mate that drove me to suicide, and another who thinks that¡¯s eptable. I can¡¯t f*****g believe this¡± I whisper. ¡°Baby-¡°Christian starts, but I interrupt him. ¡°Don¡¯t call me baby. I¡¯m not your baby. In fact, none of us are anything to each other. f**k this mate S**t, I¡¯m out. I attempt to storm off, only to be snatched back by Erebus. ¡°You will be ours¡± he whispers in my ear. ¡°I don¡¯t care if we have to mark you by force. You belong to us.¡± Christian adds in. Great. So I got stuck with dumb and dumber. How absolutely fantastic. In a split second I manage to get out of Erebus¡¯s hold and throw him at Christian. ¡°The only person I belong to is myself. Go f**k yourselves.¡± I spit at them before walking out of the restaurant. And to think that I sat on that asshole, Christian¡¯s,p for the whole dinner.Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Chapter 10 Chapter 10 Chapter Ten ¡°A game of seduction¡± Amira POV ¡°You¡¯ve got to be f*****g kidding me!¡± I yell through the phone at Samantha. it¡¯s 7am and she just called me to tell me that Christian and his men will also be attending school. ¡°They¡¯re Seniors, Amira. It would only make sense that they continued their schooling here. I swear profusely. ¡°This is f*****g bullshit.¡± I say. ¡°Can I do anything for you?¡± She asks. Samantha¡¯s always been supportive and I¡¯ll always love her for it. ¡°No. I¡¯m going to go out and get breakfast from the caf¨¦ across the street beforeing back and thinking on what to do, so I might be a bitte. But I¡¯ll be fine¡± I assure her. ¡°Okay. I love you¡± she says. ¡°Love you too. Bye.¡± As soon as I hang up the phone I let out a loud shout to get out my anger. All therger suites are soundproofed, so I don¡¯t need to worry. I decide to just go to school, and pick up breakfast on the way from a starbucks. No teacher will reprimand me for eating/ drinking in ss. My outfit for the day is pretty nd, but still manages to look good on me. White off the shoulders crop top, ck skinny jeans, and ck and white vans. I put on some highlighter on my cor bones and cheek bones just for the hell of it grab my car keys and backpack, and head out. On the way to school t stop by a Starbucks drive through, going with my signature order-chai teatte with a shot of espresso and two slices of lemon loaf. I end up getting to school about a half hour early, at 8am. Idecide on heading to the library to read for a little bit. After grabbing what I need for the day from my locker and deciding to leave my backpack in it, I head to the library. Much to my dismay, however, thear two familiar voicesing from inside the library. Christian and Erebus. Of course, being me, I decide to listen in on the conversation. I stay at the door of the library, just out of sight, and try to hear as much as possible. ¡°Yeah, I agree. She probably has a third mate out there somewhere. Anyways, she¡¯s bound toe around to us at some point but if it isn¡¯t within the next few days we may need to forcefully mark her.¡± Christian¡¯s voice echoes through the library and into the hallway. ¡°What about her powers?¡± Erebus questions. ¡°We¡¯re her mates. As soon as physical contact is made we can negate her powers, and easily restrain her. Plus / know a few witches who can enchant ropes and handcuffs so that even she won¡¯t be able to break out of them.¡± Christian answers. ¡°How soon can we get them?¡±. ¡°Probably by tomorrow.¡± ¡°What do we do with her in the meantime?¡± ¡°Learn more about her.¡± Christian responds simply. Yeah, good luck. ¡°And how the f**k will we do that?¡± Erebus snaps back ¡°Ask her.¡± ¡°When? She won¡¯t give us the time of day.¡± Silence follows, and somethings telling me that there¡¯s a silent exchange going on. ¡°We can ask her now. She¡¯s right outside the door¡± Christians voice echoes out rmingly close to me. f**k! restrains me from behind, wrapping his arms around my torso. He holds me tight, but I can tell he¡¯s making sure not to ¡°You d***s! Let me the f**k go!¡± I demand. ¡°Not even tempting¡± Erebus whispers in my ear, nibbling on my earlobe slightly. I suppress the shiver that threatens to go down my spine as he makes his way down the side of my neck, nting light kisses, and stops at my sweet spot where a mate mark is meant to be left. Too bad that part of my neck will forever stay intact. I assess the situation briefly. I can¡¯t take down both of them, not without my powers. The smartest strategy is to distract them, get out of their holds, and then use elements to push them back. So I push down my pride, and let my body rx as much as I can. I tilt my neck to give Erebus better ess to my neck and let out a moan that¡¯s notpletely forced. ¡°That¡¯s better¡± he murmurs before going back to his task of nibbling and gently sucking my sweet spot. His arms loosen from around me ever so slightly. ¡°Erebus don¡¯t get toofortable just ye-¡°. Before Christian can finish his threat, I strike. I pry out of Erebus¡¯s arms and swiftly create a wall of wind between them and I. Only then do I remember that I can just mindlink my brothers and they¡¯lle help. God, I¡¯m such an i***t sometimes. Damon, twins, issue at school. Two possessive mates are currently trying to get their hands on me. Where?Damon¡¯s voice is eerilyposed. That only happens when he¡¯s angry enough to burn S**t down. Outside the library. We were already on our way to school so we¡¯re almost there. Hold them off. Got it ¡°Amira,e on. We¡¯re mates. We¡¯re here to love and take care of you, but we can¡¯t unless you let us.¡± Erebus tries to reason, causing me to scoff. ¡°I don¡¯t need anyone to take care of me, especially two pompous Alpha¡¯s. I¡¯m a f*****g white wolf, I can damn well care for myself.¡± turn my head at the sound of footsteps running down the hallway, and turn to see Jason, Derick, and Damon running up to me. I let the wind shield fall once they¡¯re by my sides and throw my arms around Damon. ¡°Thank you¡± I whisper in his ear: He looks at me with an odd glint in his eyes that I¡¯ve never seen before. ¡°Of course, Mira.¡± He tells me with a smile. We stare into each others eyes for a moment before Christian busts outughing. ¡°Oh my god¡­ Who the f**k would have thought?¡± he exims, practically wheezing, causing my head to snap towards him. ¡°What the hell are you talking about?¡± | demand. ¡°You two¡­ You¡­ Damon¡¯s her third mate¡± Erebus manages to get out. I snort at him. ¡°No, Damon¡¯s my brother. There¡¯s no mate bond All rights ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Yes, there clearly is. You¡¯re just too blind to see it, Amira. But somethings telling me that he already knows. Christian counters. ¡°If we were mates, I would feel the f*****g mate bond. Which I don¡¯t.¡± Damon stayspletely silent next to me, causing me to stiffen. How could he be my mate? S**t, he¡¯s my brother! And I would have known by now! Unless, of course, this is something new. Something that¡¯s happened, say, since I returned to myst mate and found a new one? Could that be a trigger for a dormant bond to emerge? ¡°Yes, It could be.¡± Erebus says. I blink. Did I say that out loud? I turn to Damon, who¡¯s still stone faced. His eyes snap down to mine. ¡°Amira, please don¡¯t kill me for this, but there¡¯s one sure as f**k way to jolt the mate bond to life if it¡¯s there.¡± He says. Before I can question, his lipse crashing down on mine. My initial reaction of freezing is instantly overridden when tingles erupt throughout my body. Just like they did when I touched Christian. Chapter 11 Chapter 11 Chapter Eleven ¡°First mark¡± Amira POV I pull back from our kiss and take a deep breath to talk, but that breath is shoved out of me as Damon pushes me against the row of lockers behind us and kisses me with everything he¡¯s got. *******g mine¡± he whispers in my ear before taking my bottom lip in between his teeth and biting it harshly. I let out a small whimper that he swallows with his lips. We make out like there¡¯s not tomorrow and I must say, Damon is the most talented kisser l¡¯ve ever encountered. And I¡¯ve made out with my fair share of people. When we finally break away our breathing is heavy and we¡¯re both panting. ¡°Wait, Damon, we need to talk about this¡± I breathe out. He presses small kisses across my jaw and down my neck. ¡°Damon. I don¡¯t do PDA¡± I growl as the first of students start trickling in. ¡°Fine¡± He growls, grabbing me and throwing me over his shoulder before walking out of the school. I huff. ¡°Put me down!¡± I demand, and only get a harsh p on my ass in return. Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. Damon carries me all the way to his car, where he seats me in the passenger side and buckles my seatbelt for me. ¡°Damon, enough. I can buckle my own seatbelt!¡± I assert once he sits down in the drivers seat. He clearly didn¡¯t like my tone because when he turns to stare at me his eyes are dark and dangerous. ¡°Amira, I will absolutely do that. You are my mate, meaning I will one hundred percent give this rtionship my all. And my all consists of carrying you ces, doing things for you, buying things for you, and f*****g you so hard that you can¡¯t walk.¡± Warmth pools in my core at his words and I freeze. Did his dominating caveman thing just get me wet? No¡­ no way! I watch as he inhales deeply before smiling at me. ¡°So you like it rough, huh?¡± he asks, leaning over the console and cing his hand on my thigh, squeezing dominatingly. ¡°I know you¡¯re a virgin, Mira, but have you ever touched yourself?¡± he asks, sliding his hand up until it¡¯s dangerously close to my core. My breath catches as I shake my head. He then cups my p***y through the fabric of my jeans. ¡°Has anyone else ever touched you down here?¡± he asks, rubbing slightly. I moan lightly and shake my head. ¡°Good. Because this p***y is mine, just like you¡¯re mine. Everything about you is mine.¡±.. Before I have the chance to protest he smacks my thigh causing me to gasp. ¡°Don¡¯t fight me on this, Amira. I¡¯m the next Alpha of Alpha¡¯s, and possessive won¡¯t be a strong enough way to describe me when ites to you. And judging by the way your breathing just hitched, you like being dominated and having someone be possessive over you.¡± ¡ª ¡ª He¡¯s f*****g right Apparently Damon booked a suite down the hall from mine in the hotel, so that¡¯s where we go. As soon as we¡¯re at the entrance of the hotel hees around to open my door for me before snaking his arm around my waist and possessively pulling me to him before tossing the car keys to the valet. As soon as we step into our hotel room I¡¯m pinned against the wall with Damon¡¯s lips on my neck. He hoists me up and my legs wrap around his waist. I feel him settle over my sweet spot and start nipping it. I¡¯m too lost in sensation to stop him until it¡¯s too too much of my own person for this! As soon as Damon extracts his teeth, before he has time to lick over and seal the wound, I shove him away before falling to my knees. ¡°What the f**k, Damon?! You know I¡¯m not ready to be marked! How dare you?!¡± I demand. Damon ignores my pushing him away and kneels beside me, licking over the spot he marked on my neck to seal it and scooping me up to carry me to bed. ¡°Baby, you are ready. I know you are. I know you very well, probably better than you know yourself, so I¡¯m.confident in my decision. I know being marked is scary because now have legitimate im over you you. I¡¯m going to love and protect you through everything and the mark on your neck is a vow to that. Okay? I run my hands through my hair. ¡°Damon, I am not good at this whole rtionship thing. I don¡¯t have enough care for the opposite s*x to put forward effort.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t worry, I¡¯ll put in enough effort for the both of us.¡± ¡°No, that¡¯s not fair to you. You deserve better than me!¡± I snap. ¡°You¡¯re too good for me in the first ce¡± he retorts. We both breathe angrily for a few moments. I open my mouth to throw some sort of argument in his direction but he crushes his lips against mine and boldly thrusts his tongue inside of my mouth.. After we pull back I¡¯m slightly dizzy from how amazing he is, and he scoops me up beforeying me down on the bed. ¡°Okay. Now that that¡¯s all out of the way, let¡¯s talk. I would have lost my f*****g mind if I had to hold back my attraction to you or pretend that my love for you was only brotherly for another day.¡± I freeze. ¡°You¡­ wait.. what?!¡± ¡°I¡¯ve been ridiculously attracted to you since the first few weeks you spent with us. But I decided to pretend that it was only brotherly love for the sake of notplicating your life. But notice how I¡¯ve always done the caveman routine with you? I carry you around because of how possessive I¡¯ve always felt of you and how much I just want to have my hands on you ever single minute of every day.¡± He entuates his point by wrapping his arms around my waist and pulling me closer. I wrap my arms around his neck and peck him on the lips. His eyes darken. ¡°I don¡¯t ept half assed kisses like that. If you¡¯re going to kiss me, then kiss me, don¡¯t give me a high five with your face.¡± He demands. get ready to make a sassyeback, but am cut off by a deep and passionate kiss from him. f**k, I¡¯m ready to loose my virginity to this man, ¡°I love you so much, Amira.¡± He whispers against my lips, I choke on my response, because I don¡¯t know if I can love anymore. But if I¡¯ll ever love anyone, it will be this man in front of me. Chapter 12 Chapter 12 Chapter Twelve ¡°Let me work!¡± Amira POV ¡°Oh my gosh, Damon! I have to finish this math! Leave me alone!

I¡¯m currently finishing myst math problem on the homework, but can¡¯t concentrate because Damon won¡¯t stop tickling me or trying to get my attention. ¡°How much longer?¡± He whines. ¡°Less than a minute unless you keep annoying me!¡± I respond Thankfully I get a whole minute of peace to finish my work. As soon as I shut the textbook, worksheet inside, though- I¡¯m pulled onto Damon¡¯sp. I struggle slightly to get off, but he holds me in ce. Suddenly I feel his erection press into my ass, and freeze. ¡°I like my women helpless¡± he whispers into my ear before nipping my ear lobe. A shiver runs through my body. ¡°Ever been tied up and yed with, baby?¡± he asks. I shake my head, suppressing another shiver. ¡°Well, you should know that I love bondage. Not to mention overstimtion. Seeing a girl writhe from multiple orgasms is the greatest turn on. I whimper slightly at his dirty talk And right in that moment I make my decision. After dinner I¡¯m going to seduce him. I know he¡¯s been holding back his carnal desires for me, but I¡¯m done waiting. I need to finish mating with him. Thankfully we¡¯re going out to dinner in less than a half hour, so I don¡¯t have to wait too long. As soon as we¡¯re at the restaurant, I¡¯m already eager to get back to the hotel and have him put into action all the dirty things he loves to say to me. He took me to a nice steakhouse, but I can¡¯t seem to focus on the food- no matter how delicious it is. No, all I can focus on is the gorgeous hunk of a man in front of me. I want him like no other. So, at dessert, I decide to make a little show out of eating my chocte cake with vani ice cream. We¡¯ve already paid the bill so there¡¯s no issue if he decides to pull caveman again and carry me off. Once I make eye contact with him I bring the forkful of heaven into my mouth, and suck it off of the fork before seductively chewing and swallowing. Trepeat the action over and over, making sure to lick and bite my lip. By the time I¡¯m done he¡¯s staring at me like he wans to f**k me right here on the table. And, knowing him, he f*****g does. Without a moments notice he pulls me out of my chair by my hand, and drags me out of the restauran and into the car. On the drive home I casually stroke my inner thigh and cor bones, trying to get him as turned on as possible. By the time we¡¯re in the elevator to the hotel room, I¡¯m actually slightly scared. The look he¡¯s giving me is carnal and terrifyingly hungry. I step out of the elevator slowly only to be thrown over his shoulder, carried into the hotel room, and deposited on the bed. Chapter 13 Chapter 13 Chapter Thirteen ¡°Matingplete¡± I climb back on the bed until I¡¯m against the headboard, but Damon pulls me to the edge by my ankles, standing me up and making quick work of my clothes. Before I know it I¡¯m back on the bed, naked. I yet again back up against the headboard, covering my breasts and keeping my legs tightly closed. ¡°Okay, listen. I was just teasing!¡± I say, but Damon¡¯s in beast mode. He strips off his clothing slightly, and my eyes widen at his erect cock I guess what they say about alphas is true. They¡¯re at least 10 inches. ¡°Open your legs, Amira.¡± I look at him, slightly afraid yet incredibly excited. ¡°Don¡¯t f*****g test me, Amira. Open your legs so I can see what¡¯s mine.¡± I frown at that. ¡°Okay, not yours. Don¡¯t go all possessive over my body.¡± He raises his eyebrows, getting on the bed and moving towards me. When he¡¯s in front of me, he finally speaks. ¡°You are mine. Mind, body, and soul. Now show me the p***y that belongs to me.¡± Hemands. I shake my head, suddenly shy. I know that my cheeks must be the color of blood at this point. ¡°Fine. Have it your way¡± he says, yanking my legs apart. I try to move one of my hands to cover myself, but he moves me so that I¡¯mying on my back, grabs both hands in one of his, and pins them above my head. ******g perfect¡± he whispers, staring at my breasts and p***y. He kisses me passionately, and I open my mouth-giving his tongue permission to explore my mouth. Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. After a little while he breaks away, only to start kissing the rest of my body. Before I know it he¡¯s taken one of my n*****s in his mouth, and sucks on it until it feels too raw to handle. ¡°f**k!¡± I scream when he nips it. He gives the same attention to my other n****e before kissing his way further down my body. ¡°Most gorgeous p***y I¡¯ve ever seen¡± he whispers before diving in and devouring me like the hungry dog he is. ¡°f**K ME ALREADY!¡± I yell out when I feel like I¡¯m about toe, and he happily obliges. I don¡¯t feel any pain when he thrusts into me¡­ only pleasure. Immense, delicious pleasure. He pounds into me at a merciless pace, and we bothe at the same time. I¡¯m . absolutely exhausted, but realize that he¡¯s nowhere near done. He flips me over, positions me so that I¡¯m on my hands and knees, and ms home. This time I move back to meet every one of his thrusts, and the only sound that can be heard is the wet and slick sounds of our bodies melting together. We bothe another two times before he drops down besides me, pulling me into him. ¡°I love you¡± he whispers, and I tense. ¡°You don¡¯t have to say it back, baby. I love you enough for both of us. You¡¯re my everything.¡± It¡¯s with that whisper that I fall asleep. Chapter 14 Chapter 14 Chapter Fourteen ¡°Tragedy¡± Going back to school is¡­ annoying, to say the very least Damon is driving both of us and I sulk in the passenger seat, annoyed. When we pull up to the school he grasps my hand, causing me to turn to him. ¡°Yes?¡± I question wearily. Something came to my attention this morning. Something that will make you very displeased with me,¡± he admits. I freeze. ¡°Go on,¡± I urge. ¡°With female wolves who have several different male mates¡­ well, once you mark and mate one- the urge to mark and mate with the others is almost unbearable, especially on the other mates side.¡± My teeth clench. ¡°So Erebus and Christian are both most likely currently loosing their s**t without you.¡± ¡°Son of a ¡°And with all of us being your mates, we all share a bond now. Not necessarily a bond of love between the males, but a bond of respect and understanding¡± If he¡¯s about to tell me that he suddenly condones Erebus and Christian, this prick has another thing his. I understand that it¡¯s primal instinct, I genuinely do. But1f*****g hate it and feel betrayed. ***k You.¡± I say before getting out and walking off, mming the car door behind me. Damon also gets out of the car and jogs to catch up to me before slipping his hands around my waist and stopping me ¡°If you don¡¯t want me to start the apocalypse you will let me the f**k go.¡± I warn. Damon doesn¡¯t respond, but does wrap his hand around my neck, causing me to freeze. ¡°You will calm down right now, or will take you home and punish you. My punishments are not fun. Don¡¯t forget that at the end of the day I am a dominant, and you are my submissive.¡± I struggle out of his grip, managing to put some space between us. ¡°Just because you marked me andpleted mating, you think you now own me? That I¡¯m below you? Watch me go to the moon goddess and ask her to remove the mark Lets see how you react then!¡± | spit I can¡¯t f*i*ag believe he threatened me! ¡°That¡¯s another thing we¡¯ll have to work out because you¡¯ll be a sub to three doms¡± he mutters, trailing off. ¡°excuse me?¡± I respond, dumbfounded. ¡°Christian and Erebus are dominants?¡± ¡°Yes. And pretty renowned ones, as well. The three of us are known around clubs as the best doms out there. Most experienced.¡± | shake my head. I will not submit to anyone. Sure, I like it rough. I¡¯d be down for a little bit of pain and bondage, but submitting to someonepletely? I don¡¯t know if I¡¯m misunderstanding or overreacting, but Thope so. My phone goes off in my pocket and I pull it out, shooting a re at Damon. It¡¯s from Brendon. How the f**k did he get my number? sos, meet at hospital. Mom and dad got into a car ident. I freeze. Mom and dad¡­ what? No¡­ no, no, no, no, no! They can¡¯t¡­ NO! So I do the only thing that I can-1 run. I¡¯m sure as f**k not asking Damon to take me, and if I run at full speed I¡¯ll be there in no time. Faster than I would get there in a car. Several minutes of worry, of hell pass, until I finally burst into the hospital I¡¯m recognized immediately, and ushered into the room where my parents are. The doctor is in the corner talking with Brendon. | swiftly walk up to them. ¡°I need the diagnosis in thirty seconds or I will hurt you worse than them¡± I tell the doctor, not joking. He has a somber expression on his face. ¡°Your mother will not pull through. Your father is also weak, meaning that if his mate dies- he will too.¡± ¡°How long?¡± I ask. ¡°I don¡¯t kn-¡± ¡°HOW LONG?!¡± ¡°A few hours.¡± He admits. With my head hanging and my emotions all over the ce, I pull up a seat in between the two beds holding my parents. There¡¯s just enough room for a chair there. They¡¯re both asleep. Brendon tries to approach me, but I shut him up with a single look. Why didn¡¯t I forgive them? Why did I have to be so hard on them? And f**k, who¡¯s going to take care of Meda?! I sure as f**k don¡¯t trust Brendon with her, or anyone else for that matter. So I¡¯ll take her in. What other f*****g choice do I have? Suddenly I feel a grip on my right hand. I look over to see my mother, who smiles at me. ¡°I¡¯m s-so¡­ sorry¡± she whispers. I shake my head profusely. ¡°Don¡¯t apologize, mama. I should have talked to you. I should have tried to work things out.¡± My other hand is gripped by my father, who¡¯s also half awake. ¡°I love you¡± he says. ¡°We love you,¡± mom corrects. I swallow my anguish, and offer them both a smile. ¡°No matter how much I hate you, blood is thicker than hate. You taught me that. I still love you so much.¡± I admit. ¡°Mama, papa, please don¡¯t leave me¡± I beg, tears steadily streaming down my face. I grip their hands tightly. We sit for I don¡¯t know how long, looking at each other. God, why can¡¯t I f*****g do anything? I¡¯m a white f*****g wolf! What in gods name is wrong with me? Why couldn¡¯t I have mastered healing yet? My mother¡¯s grip on me loosens, and I stare into her eyes. ¡°Take care of Meda¡± she tells me. The monitor measuring her heart rate speeds up, then slows down, and tlines. I sit in shock, watching as the same thing starts to happen with Dad. ¡°Raise her like we should have raised you.¡± He then looks over at Brendon. ¡°I love you both And Meda, Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. as well.¡± He says, before his monitor tlines as well. I drop to my knees. And scream. The lights flicker. The building shakes, and a storm starts outside. There are three doctors at the door watching. When I stop screaming, I numbly stand up. I kiss both of my parents on their heads. And leave. I turn to Brendon. ¡°Where¡¯s Meda?¡± ¡°Pack house with the nanny.¡± I nod. ¡°I¡¯m taking full responsibility of her. She will be raised with me as her mother figure, but she will know that I am not her actual mother. You will be in her life and treat her like every brother should treat their sister, but don¡¯t forget that she is f*****g mine.¡± With that, I walk out of the room. ¡°Set up the funeral as fast as possible¡± I tell the doctor standing outside. ¡°Yes, Luna.¡± For once I don¡¯t have the energy to correct him. Chapter 15 Chapter 15 Chapter Fifteen ¡°My little girl¡± I decide to walk back to the packhouse. My anger and anguish caused a storm, so it¡¯s pouring and there¡¯s lightning and thunder every 30 seconds, but I don¡¯t care. As I¡¯step out of the hospital, my phone starts buzzing over and over. But I don¡¯t feel like talking to anyone. After a few minutes I take it out of my pocket, throw it on the ground, and stomp on it. I¡¯ll get a new one with a new number tomorrow. All I care about right now is my precious Meda. f**k, growing up without parents, i know it¡¯s tough. And now it falls to me to step into that mother figure roll. It¡¯ll be a thin line to walk, mothering her yet making sure she understands I¡¯m her sister. ¨C And she most likely won¡¯t have a father figure, because there¡¯s no f*****g way I¡¯m letting any of my so called ¡°mates¡± near her. I don¡¯t know how long I walk, but I eventually find myself in front of the packhouse. I step in, sopping wet, but don¡¯t give a f**k. So l head to Samantha¡¯s room. She¡¯s sitting on her bed, scrolling through her phone. When she sees me, her eyes fill with empathy. She stands and wraps me in a hug. It¡¯s exactly what I need, and I sob. I sob because even though my parents f****d up, I still love them. And I wish I had told them that. After several minutes of standing there and hugging, she rushes me to the bathroom for a shower. When I get out there¡¯s a towel and sweatpants/ a sweatshirt waiting for me. I put everything on and walk out. Bursting out in tears again at the sight of Samantha caring enough to just sit and wait for me, we end up hugging again. And I tell her everything. Catch her up on everything. She¡¯s always supported me on everything. We have such a deep connection that I can¡¯t even describe. So when I tell her my views and annoyance with my ¡°mates¡±, she totally agrees. And then, with a deep breath, I leave to search for Meda. ¡°I¡¯ll get a new phone tomorrow and call you,¡± I promise her. As soon as I step out of her room, I hear a baby¡¯s screams. I follow the noises to Erebus¡¯s study, where Brendon stands- looking helpless with a crying infant in his hands. I walk over to him with my arms out, and he gratefully hands her over. She¡¯s not immediately subdued in my arms, so I start singing quietly to her. She calms down and falls asleep momentarily, ¡°I need you to get me all of her vital stuff. Birth certificate, clothing, etc. I need it in 10 minutes, and you¡¯re going to drive me to the hotel ¡°I tell Brendon, who nods and leaves. As soon as he does I leave Erebus¡¯s study, not wanting to run into him. ¨C Thave to get the f**k out of here, as soon as possible. I¡¯d normally stay in a different hotel, but Damon will track me down in minutes. So I call the hotel and get my old suite back. After doing so, I sit on the floor of the entrance hall, and rock my baby sister back and forward lightly, continuing to sing to her while wiping away my tears that won¡¯t stop flowing. Three sets of footsteps make their way towards me, and I don¡¯t need to look up to know that my mates have caught up to me.pletely ignore their presence, never ceasing to sing various songs from The Sound of Music. ¡°You have a beautiful voice¡± Christianplements, taking a seat besides me. The other two follow suit. I hold my finger up to my lips and shoot Christian a warning re, to which he nods. Understanding that Meda needs to sleep. After a few minutes, Brendon walks in-holding a backpack. All rights ? N?velDrama.Org. ¡°Everything you¡¯ll need for the night is in there. Ready to go?¡± He whispers. I nod, following him out to his car. My three mates follow, and I growl at them. ¡°Get the f**k away from me!¡± I hiss, trying to still stay quiet for Meda. Theypletely ignore me. The f**k am I supposed to do? There¡¯s nothing I can do. I shake my head in exhaustion and get into the back seat of the car, holding little Meda safely in my arms. She¡¯s still soundly asleep. Thankfully the three men don¡¯t get into the car, but each get into their own. They¡¯ll likely follow me to the hotel. However, much to my surprise- they don¡¯t. When I get to my old suite it¡¯s empty. I thank god. 1 set down the backpack with Meda¡¯s necessities I take Meda into the bathroom with me, and change into a bathrobe-only keeping on my panties. Taking her safely on my arms I sit on the bed, and turn on the TV quietly. Several hours of peace pass. I feed my baby girl once, and she goes straight back to sleep. Just as I¡¯m about to order room service, there¡¯s a knock at the door. Probably housekeeping. Not putting Meda down I walk to the door, hoping to quietly inform the maid that I don¡¯t need my room cleaned. ¡°However I get the rather unpleasant surprise of my three f*****g mates are at the door. They all have several shopping bags with them, and look happy to see me. I open my mouth to scream, but Christian quickly covers it with my hand. Damon slips his arms around my waist as Erebus carefully yet quickly takes Meda away, walking into the bedroom. 1, being already ridiculously overprotective of my little sister, struggle with all of my might to get away from them and get to my sister. ¡°If I let go, you will not scream. If you do, I will gag you. Clear?¡± Erebus asks. I nod. Of course I¡¯ll scream, and of course he won¡¯t gag me. Erebus takes his hand off of my mouth, and I immediately let out a blood curdling scream. Damon ps on of his hands over my mouth, still keeping a steady hold on me. ¡°Alright. Get the gag and the rope.¡± He tells Christian, who nods and rummages through one of the bags. I frown and struggle harder This is taking possessive to a whole other level. Several minutes and one hell of a fightter, I¡¯m securely tied up to a chair, with a ballgag in my mouth. f*****g assholes. I sit, angrily, staring at Damon. After about twenty minutes Erebus and Christiane in. ¡°We set up the crib. Clothes are put away. Restraints are all over the ce, including in the shower. Wherever we go we can tie her up.¡± Christian says. Restraints? Tied up? f**k no! I get that they¡¯re dominants, but that doesn¡¯t make it okay in the least. But, thinking about it, Damon did say that they¡¯re all very renowned dominants. So I suppose being tied up as a punishment and other things is something I¡¯ll have to get used to. Wait, what am I thinking? I¡¯m not taking them on, so I don¡¯t have to get used to s**t! As soon as they take off the ballgag, I¡¯m rejecting all of them. It¡¯s almost impossible to reject someone you¡¯vepleted mating to, but you can put out a verbal request that will be reviewed by the moon goddess. If she grants it your mark will disappear. As for Erebus and Christian, I know that they¡¯ll never ept my rejection, but rejecting them will make the bond recede on my end. Unfortunately it will also make them stupid possessive, but they already are. ¡°I¡¯m going to take off the ballgag now. If you scream, it¡¯s going right back on.¡± Erebus says before slowly removing it. I work my jaw for a few seconds, before getting ready to say all of the rejections as fast as possible before they stop me. ¡°I, Amira Warner, reject all three of my mates.¡± I say before they can stop me. Christian and Erebus fall to the floor. Yeah, Thope it hurts like a motherfucker. ¡°f**k!¡± Erebus yells, doubling over. Christian is not faring much better. Damon is perfectly fine, because my rejection will only go through if the moon goddess allows it to. ¡°I reject your rejection¡± Christian wheezes out before managing to get onto his feet and stumble over me. Before I know what¡¯s happening, there¡¯s an earth-shattering pain on my neck. HE f*****g MARKED ME! Directly after retracting his teeth, Christians physical pain goes away. But I know he¡¯s still left with mental anguish. That won¡¯t go away until I willingly have sex with him. I watch as Eros follows suit, standing up anding towards me. ¡°EREBUS, DON¡¯T YOU f*****g DA- AHHH!¡± I scream as he prates my neck too. I have experienced a lot of pain in my life, but nothing ¡°What¡¯s happening with her?¡± Christian questions in a worried tone, kneeling besides me. ¡°Two forced marks at the same time is going to put her into a lot of physical pain¡± Damon admits. ¡°It should die down in a few hours. But she¡¯ll pass out any second, now.¡± And just like that, darkness takes over. Chapter 16 Chapter 16 Chapter Sixteen ¡°The Goddess¡± Amira POV I woke up to see the bed devoid of everyone but me. But upon standing up and walking around the suite, I saw the boys sprawled about the living room. The crib holding my baby sister was in the corner, and I quietly approached it, flinching as my neck hurt with every step. Little Meda was sleeping peacefully, so I decided not to disturb her. Instead I sat on the floor beside her crib, leaning against the wall and watching her carefully. I can¡¯t sleep after what happened. ¡°Your awake,¡± I hear Damon quietly say, as he sits beside me. I nod. ¡°Unfortunately so.¡± ¡°Don¡¯t be like that, baby,¡± he pleads. ¡°Like what?¡± ¡°Distant. Don¡¯t shut me out.¡± I clench my jaw before turning to him. ¡°I gave you a f*****g chance, Damon. Even when you marked me without asking, I stuck with you. I gave you my virginity.¡± I wipe away a tear as a realization hits. ¡°I loved you.¡± His eyes widen but I ignore it, continuing ¡°And after all of that, you stood back and watched as two people marked me, after I voiced my objections. One of those people bullied me for a decade, Damon. You found me bleeding out on the forest floor, as a result of his actions. You are proof that loving people is unsafe and unstable. You really did me a favor and reminded me that, at the end of the day, absolutely nobody can be trusted.¡± Erebus and Christian are now both awake, ande join Damon and I on the floor.¡± ¡°You¡¯lle to trust us. You¡¯lle to love us, hopefully as much as we love you. Everything will be okay. We¡¯ll work out.¡± Erebus says. And Iugh. I actuallyugh at him. ¡°You are f*****g psychotic, Erebus: How could I possibly, ever love you? Are you mad?¡± ¡°They all are. That¡¯s the beauty of mating¡± A voice rings out in the room. I¡¯m on my feet before the others, and have Meda safely in my arms after half a second. ¡°Don¡¯t fret, child. I¡¯m not here to hurt you¡± The same voice repeats, and I watch as a beautiful figure materializes in front of me. I feel a pull towards her. My inner wolf is drawn to her. The Moon Goddess. I kneel down to her, still carefully holding Meda in my arms. The men follow suit. ¡°Stand, Amira¡± shemands gently, and I Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. do. ¡°Put the infant down, ande let me look at you.¡± I follow her order, and slowly approach her. ¡°My, my, how beautiful you are, indeed. And powerful, as well. The energy radiating off of you is humming with potential¡± she informs me with a mesmerizing smile. I return the smile, having trouble believing what is actually happening. ¡°Though I¡¯d love to stay, this is an impromptu visit and I don¡¯t have arge amount of time. Boys, rise.¡± Shemands, and they do so. ¡°All of you have been mated to Amira for a reason. The three of you have what she does not, and together-your sess will have no bounds. However, forcing marks upon her? The absoluteck of consent andmunication? I¡¯m frankly tempted to offer her new mates. However, I will do no such thing yet. Prove yourself worthy. Not to me, but to her. If you do not, she will have the option to leave you, and the three of you will lose her. Am I clear?¡± ¡°Yes, goddess¡± they all say at the same time. The moon goddess thenes close to me and pulls me into an embrace. ¡°I¡¯ll be seeing you soon, child¡± she promises me, before disappearing into thin air, As soon as she¡¯s gone, Meda starts crying. I rush over and pick her up. The poor baby must be hungry. While I fix her form, all three boys have seats around the living room, no doubt contemting what¡¯s been said. Yeah, bitches. Even the goddess is on my side. Chapter 17 Chapter 17 Chapter Seventeen ¡°Meda¡± Amira POV Days have turned into weeks. Weeks have turned into months. And this entire time¡­ I¡¯ve All rights ?

About a month ago Ipleted training with the Red River pack, and left I¡¯ve had a month of peace to care for little Meda. For my mates, time apart has been torture. For me? It¡¯s been an absolute blessing. But today¡­ Today is the anniversary of my parents death. I¡¯m in the car, heading back to red river- going to the cemetery where they were buried. As soon as the cemeteryes into sight I feel tears threaten my eyes, but push them back. I will not be weak. I refuse to be. Carefully taking Meda out of her car- seat in the back, I start walking over to their grave stones. As soon as I get there, I take a seat beside them. There¡¯s a storm brewing, but for once it¡¯s not a product of my will. Nature is taking it¡¯s course. I take a deep breath, closing my eyes, and suddenly feel a hand on my shoulder. A calming hand. Motherly hand. Not the hand of my mates, but¡­ I look up, and into the eyes of the moon goddess, who smiles at me before sitting herself in front of me. ¡°They loved you very dearly, you know. They simply didn¡¯t know how to show it¡± she tells me, wiping away my tears. I nod. I do believe that they loved me. That doesn¡¯t mean that what they did is okay, but it does help knowing that at least they felt something for their daughter. The moon goddess holds out her arms, motioning to Meda. ¡°May 1?¡± ¡°Of course,¡± I respond, carefully shifting Meda and handing her over. ¡°Such a sweet child. Such a calm and mild energy. She¡¯s already rather attached to you as if you were her mother.¡± I sigh and run a hand through my hair. ¡°What should I do about that?¡± The moon goddess looks into my eyes. ¡°Let her. Teach her that her birth parents passed away, but treat her as your own. Just like you¡¯re already doing.¡± ¡°But I don¡¯t think I¡¯ll be a good mother. I mean, my parents didn¡¯t exactly raise me. I raised myself.¡± ¡°Exactly. You raised yourself. You already know how to raise a child. And regardless of that, your motherly instincts are fantastic. You¡¯ll do very well with Meda.¡± Well, if the moon goddess says so, who the f**k am I to oppose? ¡°What about having a father?¡± She offers me a small smile. ¡°You already know the answer to that, sweet Amira. Your mates. They will all be fantastic fathers, but only with you by their sides.¡± She hands Meda back to me, and I ce herfortably on myp. ¡°I¡¯ll be seeing you quite soon, sweet girl. Until then, continue on as you are.¡± The goddess reaches out and strokes my cheek, right before disappearing. With a sigh I say my goodbyes to my parents, and head home with little Meda. Upon driving up to the Blood Warrior packhouse, I see all three of my mates cars parked outside. Damon has been away on business for about a month, and the other two have been running their packs from their own pack houses. f**k me. I take my time stepping out of the car and walking into the house. As soon as I get in I don¡¯t hear any noises, which to me is an opportunity to dash to my room. Unfortunately I¡¯m intercepted by the three pricks that are my mates. *f**k¡± I mutter, just as Damon approaches me. He goes to engulf me in a hug, and I step back. ¡°Watch it! I have a baby!¡± ¡°Speaking of babies, I¡¯ve missed you, babygirl¡± Christian says. ¡°May I hold her?¡± Erebus asks. Meda has already begun stirring, and looks like she¡¯s starting to wake up. I carefully hand her to him, and she fully wakes up. She nces at Erebus, who is attempting to figure out how to hold her, nces at me, nces back at Erebus, and starts crying, holding her arms out to me. ¡°Here, give her back. I¡¯ll show you how to hold her¡± I offer. Erebus nervously hands her back to me, and I chuckle because the big bad Alpha and b**m dominant gets nervous around a baby. I take her and ce her on my hip, showing him the mostfortable way to bnce her. She quiets immediately in my hold. ¡°Having her on your hip when she¡¯s awake is easiest. If she¡¯s crying, try bouncing her slightly. Draw little patterns on her skin with your fingers, gently, and make shhhh sounds. It¡¯s the same sound that babies are ustomed to hearing in the womb, so it calms them down.¡± Erebus nods, taking in the information. I don¡¯t want to freak Meda out bypletely letting her go again, so when I hand her to Erebus and he properly holds her, Ie up right next to him and ce my hand on her arm, rubbing my thumb up and down. She looks at me and I offer her a smile, which she returns. Then, looking tentatively at Erebus, she smiles widely when he makes a funny face. She giggles and I chuckle. ¡°Hold up, is this how to get your attention? Holding the baby so you have to be near us?¡± Christian asks. f**k. It totally is. ¡°MY TURN!¡± Damon yells. Chapter 18 Chapter 18 Chapter Eighteen Amira POV ¡°Ground rules for us being in the same house together. These are only the rules regarding Meda, however.¡± I begin, holding. Meda close and looking each man in the eye. ¡°At the end of the day, Meda is mine and only mine. If any of you try to undermine that, I will take away your privilege of spending time with her. Second, if I see you holding or treating her incorrectly, I¡¯ll beat the s**t out of you. Thirdly, if you pester me when I¡¯m having some mommy daughter time with Meda, I¡¯ll cut your d**k off.¡± I finish, giving all three of them a pointed look. ¡°So are you going to stay by us if we¡¯re with her?¡± Erebus questions, and I grit my teeth. They¡¯re just using her to get closer to me. ¡°Argh! You guys can¡¯t use my own baby sister to get time with me! If you spend time with her, it should be for her. Not for me. We can spend time together away from Meda.¡± All the men perk up. ¡°We can?¡± Erebus asks. I smile. ¡°Of course not. I just wanted to see if any of you cared about Meda for Meda, and not for me. So far I know the answer is no for, at least, Erebus- but I was already suspecting that one since he abused and bullied me for years on end.¡± Myment makes Erebus¡¯s face fall. Damon looks into my eyes. ¡°Baby, I¡¯ve known you for almost two years, and gained your trust at some point. I¡¯ll love Meda as a baby sister as well. I already do. I mean look at that bundle of adorable, how can I refuse her?¡± Traise my eyebrows. ¡°Okay, here¡¯s going to be a test. Each of you have thirty seconds¡¯ to hold Meda. If she cries, you don¡¯t get to spend time with me. If she doesn¡¯t, you can take me out individually wherever and whenever you want.¡± I ampletely confident that none of the men will pass, and I keep this in mind with a smug smile on my face . ¡°Erebus, you¡¯re up first.¡± I invite, before carefully handing Meda to him. As soon as he takes her, she¡¯s wailing. I smirk. ¡°Fail. Christian, you¡¯re next.¡± Christian takes a deep breath, and ever so gently takes Meda. She looks at him with seeming apprehension, but doesn¡¯t end up crying. I swear under my breath. ¡°Pass. Damon, your turn.¡± I grumble. Damon expertly picks up Meda, who instantly melts into his hold, snuggling up to him. He hands her back to me and fist pumps, and I swear again. ¡°I¡¯m cashing in right now¡± Christian says. I raise my eyebrows at him. ¡°Leave Meda with Damon¡¯s parents. They¡¯re great with her.¡± I mean, he¡¯s right. Meda has taken a liking to Damon¡¯s parents. With a deep breath, I nod, and seek out the Alpha and Luna. I¡¯m f****d. After handing Meda over I head to my room, where Christian is sitting on the bed. ¡°Casual dress¡± he suggests, before walking out. I throw on white shorts, a ck crop top, and ck and white vans before grabbing a satchel bag and All rights ? N?velDrama.Org. heading downstairs, where Christian is waiting. He looks me up and down. ¡°You¡¯re really tempting me to take you right here and now, Amira¡± he says with a groan. Good. I want to make his life as hellish as he has made mine. ¡°Where are we going?¡± I question. ¡°It¡¯s a surprise.¡± Chapter 19 Chapter 19 Chapter Neen ¡°First date¡± My mouth drops open at the sight in front of me. ¡°An amusement park?¡± I question, shocked. Out of all ces, he¡¯s taken me to an amusement park! What in the world? Christian studies my face as he opens the car door for me. ¡°Do you not like amusement parks?¡± he questions. | snort. ¡°If you can handle going on the biggest, most intense rollercoasters with me- no worries there. I¡¯m just worried whether or not you can handle me.¡± Christian offers me his arm, which to both of our surprises I take. ¡°I¡¯m sure I¡¯ll be able to handle you, princess.¡± Iugh lightly. ¡°We¡¯ll see.¡± ! ¡°I¡¯m an Alpha, baby. I can handle anything.¡± His voice, low and sultry, really gets me going. I feel myself get wet, and tense up. I hope he can¡¯t smell it over all of the scents in the amusement park. If he can he doesn¡¯tment on it, which makes me incredibly grateful. He insists on paying for our tickets, getting us a fastpass so we can skip lines, and grins at me impishly as we walk into the park. He surprises me when he leads me straight to one of the biggest roller coasters here. I raise an eyebrow at him. ¡°Trying to impress me, Alpha?¡± ¡°First of all, never call me alpha It¡¯s Christian for you, though I will ept any endearing terms, especially ¡®sir¡¯ and daddy¡¯.¡± My cheeks flush at the thought of him spanking me, asking me to call him daddy while doing so. Of him tying me down and powering me, controlling when I get to orgasm. S**t, having three dominant mates is really getting to my head. ¡°Second, I¡¯m not here to impress you. I¡¯m here to have fun with my beautiful mate.¡± And let me tell you, he delivers. We manage to hit every big roller coaster, share a funnel cake, and end up genuinely bonding. Although I hate to admit it, the fucker is wiggling his way onto my good side. It also certainly doesn¡¯t help that he¡¯s devastatingly hot, and that the wolf in me wants to let him devastate my senses and dominate me while taking me in any position he wants. When the park¡¯s finally closing down, he walks me out. But instead of heading to his car, he walks me towards a tree line leading into arge forest. ¡°Where are we going?¡± ¡°I want to show you something¡± he says, taking my hand in his. We walk about a half mile into the forest before we enter a clearing. Above us is a perfect view of the beautiful nights sky. Christianys down on the ground, and I join him. Wey, side by side, gazing up at the stars. The S****| tension between us is more than prominent, but I still enjoy simplyying next to him. However, a few minutester he moves me so my head is on his chest, and my panties immediately dampen again. The dominant and masculine gesture is an extreme turn on. Christian rolls us over faster than I can think, so that he¡¯s now hovering on top of me. ¡°You¡¯ve been turned on all night. I can¡¯t get enough of the scent, and I want to taste you so bad. Say yes, Amira. Let¡¯s finish mating. It¡¯s bound to happen at some point.¡± I don¡¯t let myself even think. All of the men have f****d up, yes. But I genuinely think that both Damon and Christian will treat me well if given the chance. I¡¯m not so sure about Erebus, but we¡¯ll cross that bridge when we get there. I look into Christians eyes, trying to verify the sincerity of his words. When I see that he¡¯s being That¡¯s all it takes for his lips toe down on mine, and for him to lick into and taste my mouth. He groans against my mouth, and continues to kiss me. Knowingly. Intensely. Dominatingly. All I can do is hold on for the ride. He starts kissing down my jaw, my neck, skimming over my crop top and sucking on my exposed stomach. ¡°Lift your arms up, princess¡± he says breathlessly, and I obey immediately. I love the dominance in everything he¡¯s doing right now. He takes off my shirt and bra, before pushing me back down on the soft grass that¡¯s like a pillow. I close my eyes as I feel his mouth wrap around one of my n*****s, licking and sucking until it¡¯s hypersensitive. A moan escapes me as he switches to the other n****e, giving it the same attention. He then kisses further down my body, stopping to pull down my shorts and underwear. He moves my legs apart and I wiggle slightly. ¡°Be still¡± hemands, before licking into my entrance. I gasp and spasm. I¡¯m going to enjoy tying you up next time¡± he murmurs, before proceeding to devour me. Just as I¡¯m on the edge ofing, he pauses. ¡°Don¡¯te until I tell you.¡±. ¡°Yes, sir¡± I moan out He goes back to licking, now working a finger inside of me. My toes curl as I feel myself tense. ¡°Hold it.¡± ¡°I can¡¯t!¡± ¡°Hold it!¡± I let out a sob. Tensing up my body to prevent myself from releasing. ¡°Come¡± hemands, nipping my clit.. I let out a shout and orgasm. He lets me ride out my high before licking up all of mye. ¡°You taste incredible¡± he groans once he¡¯s done. He then kisses his way back up my body before stripping his own clothes off. He is six feet of pure muscle, and his c**k is huge. I don¡¯t know how I¡¯ll fit him. Before I canment on the size, he sinks into me. Inch by inch. I let out arge moan as he stills, letting out a groan. His lips m against mine as he starts thrusting in and out. His pace steadily increases until we both climax at the same time, panting deeply. He moves to kiss my Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. mark, and the tingles are incredible. Wey and cuddle for what is probably hours, enjoying each other¡¯s presences. Maybe this won¡¯t be too bad. Chapter 20 Chapter 20 Chapter Twenty ¡°Rogues¡± Christian POV Heaven. Absolute heaven. Spending time with Amira, breathing in her intoxicating scent, smelling her arousal, and being buried deep inside her ¡­ yeah, tonight has been my personal heaven. Erebus, Damon and I have be rtively close since discovering we¡¯re her mates, and share everything with each other. The bond also connects us, not in a 5****l waybut in a best friends way. As soon as Amira and I get home she goes to check on Meda, and I head to Damon¡¯s office so I can fill him in. Erebus is already in there, going through paperwork of his own. When I walk in they both look up. Damon gets it first. He ps his hands together. ¡°I apud you on your victory, brother.¡± He says with a chuckle. I grin back at him. ¡°So you two went all the way?¡± Erebus asks, a note of jealousy in his voice. Inod at him. ¡°Erebus, your time wille. She¡¯s understandably struggling with you, but both Damon and I understand that you¡¯re a changed man. She¡¯ll see it soon enough, too. Ask her on a date. Make a grand gesture. She¡¯ll respond.¡± Erebus nods, thinking this over. ¡°How was she?¡± Damon asks. ¡°Last I remember is tight, slick, hot, and sexy as f**k. I can¡¯t wait to have her tied up.¡± N?velDrama.Org exclusive content. ¡°She was all of those things, and sort of proved to be a fantastic submissive. I told her to hold her orgasm, which she did splendidly with. She called me sir, tried to obey orders, though I didn¡¯t give her very many¡­ She¡¯s f*****g incredible.¡± Damon and Erebus hang on to my every word, both of their eyes darkening with lust as I keep talking. ¡°I can¡¯t wait to have her¡± Erebus whispers. I smirk at him. ¡°You¡¯ll love her.¡± Suddenly an rm sounds through the mansion, putting all of us on edge. A pack warrior bursts into the office. ¡°Rogues. Ten of them. They passed the south border, are approaching the mansion from the north entrance.¡± My eyes widen. Damon steps in, taking control. ¡°Get everyone you can together. Try to capture instead of kill, if there are ten, there must be more. We need to interrogate them. I also want three guards with Amira and Meda. EVERYONE, GO!¡± Amira POV An rm sounds through the house, scaring the s**t out of me, and irritating Meda who was enjoying her bottle of form. I swear out loud, and try to listen in on what¡¯s happening, but I can¡¯t hear anything over the f*****g rm! Suddenly three pack warriors burst into my room. ¡°What the heck is happening?!¡± I whisper yell, rocking Meda in an attempt to calm her down. I¡¯m trying my best not to curse, but with three random warriors bursting in, that¡¯s proving to be difficult. ¡°Rogues, trying to infiltrate the mansion.¡± One of them answers. Why the f**k didn¡¯t anyone juste get me? I¡¯ll take them down easily. ¡°Where are they? Spread out? Together?¡± ¡°They were circling the house two minutes ago, which was when we left toe check on you.¡± Another one answers. I swear. ¡°Get out of my freaking way!¡± I hiss, shoving them aside and handing one of them Meda¡¯s form bottle. He sets it down on the table before all three of them follow me. ¡°Luna, we can¡¯t let you go down there! It¡¯s dangerous!¡± ¡°Shut the frick up!¡± I snap, clutching Meda close and picking up pace. I walk straight to the entrance of the house, opening it, and stepping out. I shield Meda¡¯s ears before yelling. ¡°WHAT THE F**K IS GOING ON OUT HERE?!¡± Suddenly, ten people gather about twenty feet away from me, and the three Alpha¡¯s jump in front of me. f*****g rogues. ¡°MOVE!¡± Imand, shoving Erebus aside, and handing Meda to Christian. With a single burst of angry energy and a twitch of my hand, all the rogues fall to the ground, clutching their heads and shouting in pain. I smile, enjoying inflicting pain on the bastards who dare get near me and my baby. I¡¯ve never been able to cause internal pain like that before. I guess my protective instincts got triggered. I release the pain for a moment, but create a forcefield of wind to keep them all down. ¡°I don¡¯t know what in the world you¡¯re doing here, or what made you think this pack was vulnerable, but let me make one thing clear. I can take down a well trained army with minimal effort. Keep that in mind before attacking again. I turn back to the Alpha¡¯s. ¡°Lock them up. Interrogate them. Torture them. Just don¡¯t kill them before I get my turn in making them pay for endangering Meda.¡± |mand. ¡°When you¡¯re done meet in my room.¡± I finish off, before gently taking Meda from Christians hold. Meda squirms slightly, seemingly upset by being pulled away from Christian, before realizing it¡¯s me that took her and snuggling closer. I raise my eyes at Christian. There¡¯s a legitimate father inside of him. Erebus and Damon are also staring at Meda and I with adoration, and I scowl at them. ¡°Go! Now!¡± Chapter 21 Chapter 21 Chapter Twenty One ¡°Interrogation¡± Amira POV I can do this. I can do this. I can do this. I¡¯m a f*****g white wolf. A badass. It¡¯s okay to show that. Torturing people isn¡¯t okay. I rock Meda back and forward, struggling with my own internal battle. Do I go to the dungeons and help torture? I know that I¡¯m good at it, but I¡¯m trying to stow away the crazy psycho b***h within me because of the precious life currently in my arms. ¡°Even when frowning you¡¯re gorgeous,¡± I hear Erebus say from behind me. I spin around and narrow my eyes at him. ¡°What are you doing here?¡±. ¡°I was going to offer to take Meda while you go speak to the prisoners. By speak, I mean interrogate. By interrogate, 1 mean torture. Damon wanted to be set loose on them, but he¡¯d cut off their d***s and make them eat it, so I figured sending you in would be the first option.¡± I let out a breath. I¡¯m not exactly known for my mercy, either.¡± I admit. Erebus shrugs. ¡°You have to do what you have to do. Now, may I see Meda? I want to be able to hold at least one of my baby girls.¡± A pleasant shiver goes down my spine at the insinuation, but I stop it. I¡¯m not ready to give into Erebus yet, but over thest day and a half since the rogue attack, he¡¯s proven himself. He¡¯s been incredibly kind, caring, and supportive. Even Meda¡¯s warming up to him. I give him a small smile. ¡°You know how to get her form ready, it¡¯s about time for that. Remember to warm it under water from the tap, not in the microwave.¡± ¡°Of course.¡± He confirms, gently taking Meda. ¡°Christian and Damon are in the basement. Go, our little girl will be well taken care of.¡± I hate myself for loving it when my mates use the words ¡°our little girl.¡± I hate how right it feels. I nod at Erebus before making my way towards the basement, breathing deeply. My moral side is yelling at me, telling me not to torture. That I need to be my best self for Meda. The rest of me knows that torture is the best way to get information, which is exactly what I need right now. Apparently rogues haven¡¯t been forting with answers. I take a deep breath, and neutralize my features as I head into the dungeon. Christian meets me at the door and pulls me into a passionate kiss, kneading my ass for a few moments. When I try to pull away he spanks me and pulls me flush against him, reminding me that he¡¯s in charge, and I melt into him. Let him dominate and take control. When he¡¯s finally done and pulls away I¡¯m breathless, causing him to chuckle and kiss my forehead. ¡°Good girl¡± he praises.¡± ¡°Alright. Now that you have that out of your system, show me where the rogues are.¡± ¡°Well, in terms of the initial ten we took¡­ sixmitted suicide. They had wolfsbane pills hidden in their clothes, and took them as soon as they could. Then Damon got pissed and beat two of them to death, so now we only have two left. But these two seem to be the most important ones.¡± Damon beat two of them to death? I¡¯m well aware of his reputation of cruel and unusual punishments, but I try to stay away. I don¡¯t like seeing that side of him. Is that what I¡¯m going to see today? ¡°Where is he?¡± I ask. ¡°Right here.¡± HUIVIT UP LU HITT. ¡°You j***t! Why the hell would you murder two of them? We need as many as we can get!¡± Damon¡¯s eyes gleam with domination and warning. ¡°Careful, baby. I¡¯m still Alpha.¡± I scoff, ¡°And I¡¯m still the rarest and most powerful breed of wolf.¡± Damon backs me against a wall, causing my breath to catch, and I let out a small moan at the gesture, immediately hating myself for it afterwards. ¡°Damon, we can have fun with herter. We really need to get information from the rogues¡± Christian says, causing Damon to let me go. ¡°This isn¡¯t done, babygirl¡± he warns, briefly pecking my lips. I smirk at him before following Christian to the rogues. I step into the interrogation room and look around, taking everything in. The two rogues are chained to walls on opposite sides of the room, naked except for small boxer briefs. ¡°Well, well, well¡± I greet, smiling and walking up to the table in the center of the room, on which lies an array of torture tools. However I don¡¯t see any knives, which have always been my preference. Somebody bring me an array of torture knives, all avable sizes and types. I send out in mindlink, and see both Damon and Christian grin. They¡¯re clearly going to enjoy watching the fuckers who were a threat to me and Meda get demolished. ¡°So¡­ From my understanding, you two are the ring leaders of this little operation?¡± Neither of the rogues speak, but they share a look. I smile. ¡°I was hoping we could do this the hard way.¡± Fear flushes into their features as a tray with an assortment of knives is brought in by a member of the house staff, and set on the metal table in front of me. Fear.Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. What an interesting emotion. Concept. The dark part of me loves inducing fear to those who deserve it. And I know how to do it well. So I wait. Take my time. Be patient, and watch fear build in the rogues eyes as I run my hands over the selection of knives, picking some up and testing their sharpness as I go. Once I can practically feel the dread pouring off of them, I approach the weaker looking rogue. My guess is that these two are close, from how they have been looking at each other. And from the little I¡¯ve interpreted, the stronger rogue is protective and cares for the weaker one. They¡¯re both strong, but the one I stand in front of is weaker. ¡°What are their names?¡± I ask Christian and Damon. ¡°They¡¯ve only referred to each other by letters. The one you stand next to is B. The other one is Z.¡± I nod. ¡°Alright, Z. We¡¯re going to y a little game. I¡¯m going to ask you a question, and every time you don¡¯t answer or lie to me, I¡¯m going to ce a cut on B. See, bodies are canvases. And I love making art.¡± Z opens his mouth, and talks. Chapter 22 Chapter 22 Chapter Twenty Two ¡°Consequences¡± I hold Meda, while Christian exins to Erebus what happened, and Damon gets ready to change Meda¡¯s diaper. I¡¯m normally pretty shy about letting anyone other than me care for Meda, but the men have been fantastic with her. Everyone is looking sexy as f**k, and I¡¯m practically drooling at the sigh. Christian is frowning slightly while rying everything. Essentially, the rogues revealed that they¡¯re, as I suspected, part of a muchrger organization. An actual pack of rogues, who¡¯s alpha is after my powers. The intention of sending ten rogues was to scout out how protected I was. Needless to say, as soon as my mates found this out, they went ballistic. I was kicked out while Damon and Christian beat the strong rogue to death, beat the weak rogue to the brink of death before sending him back and telling him to ry the message ¡°you touch her, you die.¡± Damon holds out his arms for Meda and I gently hand her over, watching with respect as he wlessly changes her diaper. She even smiles andughs a little bit, looking at all three men who look at her with adoration before her eyesnd on me, and she raises her arms at me. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. ¡°Hi baby girl!¡± I say in my ¡®baby¡¯ voice, the voice used for babies and dogs. I walk over to her and pick her up, holding her forehead to mine for a moment, loving her squeal of delight. Later that night I¡¯m stepping out of the bathroom in nothing but a towel when I see Damon sitting in my bed. I can tell he¡¯s in full dom mode, and it gets me wet as f**k immediately. ¡°Drop the towel¡± hemands, and I obey without pause. ¡°Good girl. Now, touch yourself.¡± I freeze. He wants me to do¡­ what? ¡°Touch yourself. Masturbate.¡± I stutter. I¡¯ve never m*********d before, or watched porn, por ¡°¡­ I haven¡¯t- I haven¡¯t ever m*********d¡± I admit. Damon lets out a groan. ¡°Come here, babygirl. Come to daddy.¡± | swallow, slowly walking towards him. When I¡¯m in front of him I instinctually cover my breasts, but he pulls my arms away. ¡°Don¡¯t hide what belongs to me¡± he growls, sucking a n****e directly into his mouth. I gasp and let out a loud moan, followed by a yelp when he grazes it with his teeth, pulling on it. Pain and pleasure mix, creating a euphoric feeling. ¡°Damon¡± | moan. ¡°f**k. I want to hear you screaming that. I need to hear you screaming that. Get on the bed. I frown, not liking his tone. I get the whole domination thing, with it being hot, but I¡¯m a girl who likes being chased on asion. If Damon wants in me, he¡¯ll have to work for it. I pick up my towel and wrap it around myself. Nobody other than my mates, Meda, and house staff are home- so I shouldn¡¯t cause too much of a stir. ¡°You can have me if you catch me¡± I say with a smirk before darting out of the room. I can immediately hear Damon chasing after me, and need to speed up. f*****g Alpha speed. I end up stumbling into the living room, where Erebus and Christian are talking. They both look up at me, their expressions turning from light to lustful before I can even blink. I gulp, backing up, only to hit Damon. He wraps his arms around me and he pulls me close. ¡°Gotcha¡± he whispers in my ear, before hoisting me up and over his shoulder.¡± ¡°Christian, Amira¡¯s being bratty. Come help teach her a lesson.¡± I struggle slightly in Damon¡¯s grip, but a sharp p to my ass makes me stop. As soon as we¡¯re back in the bedroom, I¡¯m ced on the bed. Damon and Christian tower above me, and I clutch my towel to myself even tighter, suddenly nervous. Two renowned doms and one me. This should be good. Chapter 23 Chapter 23 Chapter Twenty Three *First Scene¡± Amira POV ¡°Do you know what a brat means among doms?¡± Christian asks. I look at him, wide eyed. I don¡¯t really know anything about b**m. He steps forward, kneeling down in front of me. I would never admit it, but the feeling of being trapped is a massive turn on. ¡°It¡¯s defined as somebody who talks back to their Dom, but in this case it¡¯s a naughty, naughty girl. A girl who likes to talk back. A girl who gets disciplined, and who¡¯ll love it.¡± I¡¯m practically shaking with both excitement and anxiety. I haven¡¯t gotten super kinky with any of the boys yet. Christian turns. ¡°I don¡¯t think she¡¯s ready to have us both at once.¡± He says, running his hand over my knee and starting to edge closer to the towel. ¡°Agreed. Do you want first or second?¡± Damon responds. While they¡¯re negotiating, all I can feel is the sensation of Christian¡¯s hand up and down my leg. Christian turns to me, staring into my eyes. ¡°I¡¯ll go first.¡± ¡°Fine by me. Have fun¡± Damon says with a chuckle before walking out, leaving me with the big bad wolf. ¡°Baby girl, you are as naughty as theye.¡± I bite my lip. I really don¡¯t mind the idea of getting punished, and I trust Christian not to push me too far. ¡°Yeah? What are you going to do about it?¡± I taunt, pulling confidence out of thin air. Christians eyes darken and he stands before ripping off my towel, causing me to gasp and move to cover my body. ¡°Ah, ah, ah. Don¡¯t cover yourself. Show me what¡¯s mine.¡± I blush, wanting to move my arms, but also feeling insecure. ¡°Okay, little brat. If you won¡¯t follow my order, I¡¯ll do it for you.¡± Christian slowly removes my hands from covering my body, and I don¡¯t fight him. I want this. Want this more than anything. ¡°Before we proceed I¡¯ll go over basic safe words. Now, the standard ones are green, yellow, and red. You are permitted to use the words at any time, though I will check in with you periodically. Green means good to go. It¡¯s when you¡¯re in a willing,fortable, and happy ce. Yellow is when we¡¯re in edgy territory, and it¡¯s kind of a caution for me to be careful. Red means full stop. As soon as you say this word all activity will cease until we thoroughly touch base and decide whether to keep going or end. Do you understand?¡± I nod. ¡°Words, baby.¡± ¡°Yes, sir.¡± ¡°Good girl. Next, I¡¯ll briefly discuss the structure of a scene with me. It normally starts out light. Kissing, light teasing ¡­ then we progress to the bondage side of things. Afterwords wille the warmup into a main activity. So if it¡¯s discipline, a light spanking. Pleasure, a little bit of teasing. Then, main events. And once the scene is done, aftercare. This will epassmunication and meeting your needs. Scenes can be physically and psychologically exhausting, especially with experienced doms.

Clear?¡± I bite my lip. ¡°Yes, sir.¡± I want to be punished, and rewarded. I want to experience it all. ¡°Good. What¡¯s your color, Amira?¡± He must be referring to safe words, making sure I¡¯m okay before starting. Swifter than I canprehend, Christian sits on the bed and pulls me over hisp. His handes down on my ass with a hard and authoritative whack. *Ow! What in the f-¡± Christian cuts me off with another spank. ¡°Here¡¯s what¡¯s going to happen. I am going to spank you ten times, and you are going to count. Do you understand?¡± ¡°Yes, sir.¡± ¡°Good girl.¡± His hand flies through the air andnds on my ass, causing me to wince but also¡­ enjoy it. ¡°One.¡± He steadily increase pressure, until by the tenth I¡¯m letting out yells. ¡®Ten.¡± I whisper. Christian flips me around so that I¡¯m straddling him, and strokes my hair. ¡°Good girl.¡± Christian lowers me onto the bed, and leaves the room for a moment, returning with a few knots of rope, ¡°These are enchanted to withstand magical powers, so don¡¯t try to burn them. Don¡¯t be shy with your safeword. What color are you at right now?¡± ¡°Green, sir.¡± Christian proceeds to tie all of my limbs to the bed, before positioning himself at my entrance, and mming in. I gasp in both pain and pleasure. An Alpha¡¯s size is ginormous, and my mates are no exception. I don¡¯t know for sure about Erebus, but he is an Alpha. As Christian pounds into me at a relentless pace I feel myself building¡­ building¡­ building ¡°Oh s**t, I¡¯m gonna-¡± ¡°Hold it Christian growls, increasing his pace. I gasp, tensing up as much as I can to push off my orgasm. ¡°Christian, please!¡± *******g hold it!¡± he snaps, but I know he¡¯s getting close.

Chapter 24 Chapter 24 Chapter Twenty Four ¡°Second scene¡± Amira POV I blink away my sleepiness, opening my eyes and yawning. My legs are tangled with Christian while he looks at me affectionately. ¡°You still have to go to Damon for part two of your punishment. And I¡¯ll warn you, he¡¯s rougher than I am. But he¡¯s a fan of overstimtion and various s*x toys more than actual pain.¡± My eyes widen steadily. Overstimtion? ¡°Grab a shirt and head to his room.¡± ¡°I¡¯m taking a shower first¡± | announce, walking into the bathroom. ¡°Be quick, no dominant likes to be kept waiting,¡± Christian warns.

But something tells me that this is about to change. I forgo putting on a T-shirt, and decide to go in a towel. ¡°Oh, you¡¯re really going to get it if you go in that¡± Christian chuckles, and I don¡¯t respond. What ever Damon wants to dish out, I can take. I¡¯m a f*****g white wolf, I walk into his room, confidently, only to realize that he¡¯s in the shower. I smirk, dropping my towel, and sitting on the bed. I lean back on my elbows, so that as soon as Damon walks out he¡¯ll be met with the sight of me, naked, andpletely ready for him. I end up only having to wait a few minutes until he steps out of the bathroom, looking like a f*****g Greek god, with only a towel covering his lower half. ¡°f**k¡± he says, open mouthed, looking at me. ¡°I was under the impression you wanted to see me?¡± I purr, tilting my head slightly and smiling gently. Damon shakes his head slowly. ¡°You¡¯re going to be the death of me. You drive me f*****g insane.¡± I stare at him for a few moments, before leaning forward ever so slightly ¡°Prove it.¡± That¡¯s all it takes for Damon to drop his towel, letting me drink all of him in. He has no hair on or around his c**k. ¡°Do you shave?¡± ¡°Gics. You?¡± ¡°I get a Brazilian every week or two.¡± ¡°Mmm. That¡¯s f*****g hot.¡± ¡°Prove it,¡± I taunt again. That proves to be both a mistake and a victory, because the next thing I know, is I¡¯m fully on the bed and trapped under his strong, muscr, and irresistibly hot body. ¡°What do you want, Mira?¡± ¡°I don¡¯t know, Damon. What do I want?¡± He smirks before flipping me over and harshly pping my ass. ¡°Don¡¯t be a brat, Mira. Communicate. What do you want?¡± His voice is taunting, and I realize that he wants me to validate him. Wants to hear me beg for him. He¡¯s the most dominant out of my mates, meaning he needs the most validation, although he¡¯ll never directly ask for Too bad I¡¯m a girl who doesn¡¯t often give validation. ¡°Whatever you want.¡± Damon chuckles lowly. ¡°Don¡¯t fight me on this, Amira. If you want me, ask for me.¡± +5 Bonus Second Scene N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material. rvulus illu l guu ¡°Are you sure that¡¯s your final answer?¡± I flip back over to my back and sit up, eye level with him. ¡°No.¡± He smiles his beautiful smile. ¡°You brought this on yourself.¡± The next minute or so is a blur of me being difficult and fighting him while he ties me down, limb by limb, until I¡¯m perfectly restrained andpletely unable to move. Damon is plugging a vibrator into the wall, with his back turned to me. ¡°What are my safe words?¡± I question. ¡°You don¡¯t get a safe word,¡± he says lowly, turning to me. I tense up. ¡°What?¡± ¡°You don¡¯t get a safe word. If it¡¯s too much, I¡¯ll be able to tell. I¡¯m your mate. Christian¡¯s less intense than me, and would trust your word. I¡¯ll push your limits, but I guarantee I¡¯ll never give you more than you can handle. But I can also guarantee that you will never experience such exhaustion after a scene than with me. I¡¯m very, very particr with aftercare, specifically with you being my mate and my need to take care of you in general, which is just amplified. While Christian probably just cuddled you, since I¡¯m more intense, I¡¯m going to do more aftercare. That will mean I keep you close. I will make sure that any pain or bruises are tended to. Then I¡¯m going to bathe you. I¡¯m going to make sure you have a substantial meal. Nothing huge if you aren¡¯t hungry, but at least something. And, because you¡¯re not on birth control and I don¡¯t want you to have to take the morning after pill, I¡¯ll be using a condom tonight.¡± His words, endearing as they may be, are also sort of scaring the s**t out of me. ¡°You¡¯re scaring me¡± I admit. He walks towards me slowly, leaning over me until our lips brush. ¡°Tell me what you want. Last chance.¡± I bite my lip, battling whether to give into the anxiety and fear of being pushed too far, or trusting what Damon says and giving in. ¡°No.¡± I say. ¡°I was hoping you would say that, since I already have you all tied up and ready.¡± I gasp as he retrieves the vibrator and positions it on my clit. He makes eye contact with me before turning it onto the lowest setting. I can¡¯t help the moan that escapes my lips. Damon secures the vibrator in ce with more rope before settling himself over me, careful not to disturb the position of the vibrator. His lips smash onto mine, locking in ce,pletely dominating my mouth. Showing me that he¡¯s in charge, and that I¡¯m going to sit back and take whatever he may want to dish out. My first orgasm hits me as soon as his lips move away from mine and down to my neck. He licks and sucks his way down to my n****e, giving it plenty of attention before nipping it, causing me to yelp. He gives the same treatment to my other n****e, meanwhile orgasms are ripping out of me one, after another, after another, after another. Damon continues kissing his path down my body until he¡¯s at my p***y. He removes the vibrator, only to rece it with his tongue and fingers. I¡¯m already as wet as can be, and sensitive as hell, so it takes about 15 seconds for me to reach another climax. Damon then works his way back up to my n*****s again. He momentarily detaches so that he can roll on a condom, before going straight back to sucking. ¡°You taste so f*****g amazing.¡± With that he thrusts inside of me, causing me to scream. He picks up the vibrator and presses it to my clit at the ut at a feral pace, making another scream tear from me. He turns the vibrator setting on medium. ¡°I f*****g love hearing you scream¡± he says, before moving from my n*****s back to my mouth. ¡°But this time, you need to ask me for permission.¡± My eyes widen. ¡°What?¡± ¡°You¡¯re going to ask me permission beforeing, and you need my approval- or else I¡¯ll punish you.¡± I moan loudly as he starts moving the vibrator in circr motions, still thrusting in me. I can feel myself getting close. ¡°C-can I¡­ Can Ie, please?¡± I stutter out, all of the sensations making it too overwhelming to speak properly. ¡°Please! Can I pleasee!¡± I moan out. He keeps thrusting ¡°Not yet.¡± ¡°PLEASE!¡± He turns the vibrator setting on high, and my eyes roll to the back of my head. ¡°Come.¡± Hemands, and we both release at the same exact time. He slowly pulls out of me, turning off the vibrator at the same time, He briefly walks to the bathroom to dispose of the condom, and when hees back in his eyes zero in on my pussy ¡°I need another taste¡± he growls, before going down on me again. He licks up all of my release before making mee again, and licking that clean as well. Then he kisses his way up my body, slowly this time. ces a kiss to each of my n*****s, and then gently kisses my lips. I¡¯m on the verge of unconsciousness, exhausted physically and emotionally from the scene. He slowly undoes my restraints, and once I¡¯m all free, he gently lifts me up. ¡°I ran a bath for us. Let¡¯s shower first and then rx?¡± I smile slightly, nodding. Ipletely trust Damon to take care of me. Chapter 25 Chapter 25 Chapter Twenty Five ¡°Forgive¡± Damon couldn¡¯t resist tasting me in the shower, so now- as we¡¯re together in the bathtub I can¡¯t even sit up on my own. I¡¯m leaning back against Damon¡¯s chest with his arms wrapped around me, and his hands asionally gently caressing my breasts and neck.

I smile even though I¡¯m on the verge of falling asleep. ¡°Why didn¡¯t I know you were a dom all this time?¡± I ask. He shrugs slightly. ¡°I was scared that if I told you that you¡¯d try out b**m, and I didn¡¯t want you doing that with anyone who isn¡¯t me.¡± I chuckle slightly. ¡°Well, I guess you have me exactly where you want me.¡± ¡°I most certainly do,¡± he growls in my ear. My brain snaps to alertness when I hear the faint cries of Meda in the distance, and I freeze. ¡°S**t! I didn¡¯t check on Meda between scenes!¡± I jump out of the bath, towel dry myself off, slip on a robe, and rush to the nursery. I¡¯m greeted with a sight that makes my heart clench. Erebus is holding Meda carefully in his arms, bouncing her up and down slightly. She¡¯s visibly settling down in his light hold. Erebus makes eye contact with me before winking at me. The wink causes me to melt internally. So hot Once Meda is clearly sleeping, Erebus sets her down and pulls the nket over her. We both silently walk out of the room. ¡°We¡¯re getting cameras and a baby monitor installed tomorrow.¡± Erebus says, breaking the silence. I smile slightly, as a realization hits me. Erebus really has changed. An Alpha¡¯s wolf is very possessive, forceful, and aggressive. And although I am very much not okay with the fact that all three men marked me without permission, two of them by sheer force, I can see now that it wasn¡¯t them. It was their wolves surfacing and iming what¡¯s theirs. Wolves work on a more primitive level. Not forck of intelligence, but for a primal approach. To my mates wolves, I belong to them. Am their property. Theirs to take care of, protect, love, mark, and mate. So when I fought them, the wolves solution was to mark- not caring what I had to say about it. Thankfully the moon goddess came shortly after and put all of them in line, but I can see regret in all of their eyes. And Erebus¡­ I can feel regret radiating off of him. Regret for hurting me for so many years. Regret for marking me by force. Regret for not being a good mate. And I can see him trying to make up for it. I can see myself being too harsh on him. I feel his inner dominance¡­ His wolf¡­ begging toe to the surface and f**k me like no tomorrow. Dominate me in every position possible. But Erebus is holding back for me. And only me. He¡¯s fighting his true nature. I close the distance between us, and look up into his eyes. And say three words that I can tell he¡¯s been waiting to hear since my 16th birthday. ¡°I forgive you.¡± Chapter 26 Chapter 26 Chapter Twenty Six ¡°Rogues pt. 2¡± Amira POV Erebus¡¯s eyes shine with tears, and I smile slightly. I know I¡¯ve been leaving him out, and I know it must be difficult. But he has done nothing but prove he loves me and will be here for me. ¡°Are¡­ are you serious?¡± he asks in a wobbly voice. I nod, feeling slightly vulnerable as well. I¡¯m setting out my trust before him. ¡°Everyone deserves a second chance. But I¡¯m warning you not to f**k it up, because if you do, two Alpha¡¯s are going to tear you to shreds.¡± Erebus responds by lifting me up by my waist and spinning me around, making me squeal slightly. He then takes me by the hand and leads me out of the nursery, closing the door behind him. ¡°You won¡¯t regret this, Amira. I swear on the goddess.¡± That statement makes me freeze. Swearing on the goddess is a very serious oath. ¡°You¡¯re wee,¡± I whisper, smiling. He captures my lips in a gentle kiss. A kiss that portrays both love and possessiveness. I pull away and turn around to the sound of crumpling paper, only to witness Christian, standing at the end of the hall, crumpling a 50$ bill and throwing it at Damon, who¡¯s wearing a very smug smile. My mouth drops. ¡°What the f**k is this?¡± I question, working hard to keep my amusement at Christians pissed off face at bay. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. ¡°I bet Christian that it would take less than 24hours from your first scene for you to make up with Erebus. Christian gave it at least a month.¡± I scowl. ¡°You ced bets on me?¡± Both of them nod. ¡°Assholes!¡± I snap, looking at Erebus, who¡¯s trying to suppress a smile. ¡°No! You can¡¯t be on their side!¡± I exim, yfully ring at him. ¡°I¡¯m not taking sides,¡± he ims, but his smile grows. A smile of its own creeps into my head as an idea forms. ¡°Okay. Fine. Now, none of you get to touch my p***y until I say so.¡± This idea doesn¡¯t end up going over with my mates, because fifteen minutester I¡¯m tied to a chair in the living room, naked, with a vibrator pressed against my clit. The vibrator hasn¡¯t been turned on yet, but even the way it¡¯s pressed against me is stimting. My struggles did just about nothing to hinder my mates. They can read me too well. They know when enough is enough, and they are happy to take me right to my limit. Christian is sitting on a sofa opposite to me, next to Erebus, both of them drinking bourbon. Damon is kneeling in front of me, ever so subtly shifting the position of the vibrator, watching my reactions carefully. All three men are shirtless, driving me verifiably insane. ¡°So, baby, you told us we can¡¯t touch your p***y until you say so. Is that right?¡± ¡°Yes! And what you¡¯re doing directly goes agai¡ª¡± Damon cuts off my protest with a hand over my mouth. ¡°We¡¯re not touching your p***y. The vibrator is. And you know the only way out of this?¡± I remain ring at him defiantly. ¡°Tell us we can touch you,¡± Christian says, standing up and joining Damon in front of me. Damon removes his hand, and when I don¡¯t respond, moves to turn on the vibrator. ¡°Okay! You can touch me!¡± I squeak out, not wanting to subject my already tormented clit to any more. I gasp when a blindfold is slipped over my eyes from behind. I¡¯d been so focused on Erebus that I hadn¡¯t even noticed Christian disappear. ¡°I¡¯m going to undo the restraints, and you are going to be still.¡± I hear him whisper subtly in my ear. ¡°Yes, Sir.¡± As soon as I¡¯m untied, however, I hear a word that makes my heart stop being yelled through the house. The few guards who work the nightshift all run into the room, yelling one word. ¡°ROGUES!¡± My mates choose this moment to be protective over my body, and immediately block me from view. I, however, only have one thing on my mind. Meda. My clothes are in shreds on the ground, so I dive for Damon¡¯s button up shirt that¡¯s resting pretty close to me. I yank it on, shove everyone out of the way, and run. I run to the nursery Throwing open the door, I¡¯m greeted with a sight that makes my heart drop. No Meda. So I scream. I let out a scream that shakes the foundation of this house. A scream to let whoever took Meda know that they just started a fight they won¡¯t finish. And then I run again. This time to the entrance. I can smell rogues all on the perimeter of the house, but I follow Meda¡¯s scent. A guard attempts to stop me in my path, so I throw him against the wall hard enough to make him pass out. Nothing keeps me from what I care about. And Meda, along with my mates, is my everything. I burst through the front door of the house, shoving aside Damon, who attempts to step in my way. I look around at my predicament, and see that there¡¯s an invisible line separating the rogues and the pack members -guards/ other house staff. Where are our f*****g warriors when we need them? At the forefront of the dozens of rogues stands a devastatingly attractive man. A man, holding my baby sister in his well built arms. ¡°Hello, Amira.¡± Chapter 27 Chapter 27 Chapter Twenty Seven ¡°Rogues Pt. 3¡± I eye the handsome stranger up and down wearily, unsure of how to approach the situation.

Good thing I don¡¯t care about what he wants. It¡¯s only when I finally manage to rip my eyes away from him that I realize my true mates have been trying to talk to me, and I¡¯ve been staring at a f*****g rogue. ¡°Who the f**k are you?¡± I ask, not wavering in my aggressive stance. The rogues eyebrows shoot up, indicating that he¡¯s shocked by myck of affection. ¡°That¡¯s the sort of hello you give to your mate?¡± he questions.. My three true mates growl from behind me, releasing an overload of testosterone into the atmosphere. ¡°The moon goddess made a mistake, one that will be fixed. Give me the baby.¡± ¡°No. The baby will be staying near me.¡± I let out growl, before setting a rogue next to the man on fire. Or, at least, trying to. The fire dies down before doing any real damage, causing me to tense. I try again on him, but the same thing happens. And on another rogue. And another. ¡°What the f**k?!¡± I screech. ¡°Nobody but the goddess can make someone immune to your powers,¡± Christian whispers, gritting his teeth. ¡°Wrong. The Delta could if he got enough power,¡± Erebus counters. Delta? Who¡¯s the Delta?¡± ¡°He¡¯s been locked away for centuries!¡± Damon exims. ¡°He¡¯s not anymore,¡± the man says. I look at him with a newfound fear. Whoever the Delta is can¡¯t be good. ¡°The Delta, little mate, is the Moon Goddess¡¯s counterpart. Every figure in mythology has their counter¡­ their opposite. Well, the Moon Goddess¡¯s nemesis is The Delta.¡± I don¡¯t move, unsure of how to approach this situation. After a few beats I finally speak. ¡°What do you want?¡± He scoffs. ¡°What does every mate want?¡± I shrug. ¡°I¡¯ve always needed a lot of persuading before wanting a mate.¡± I realize that¡¯s the wrong thing to say, when his gaze darkens. ¡°Well here¡¯s my form of persuasion, Amira. I have the most precious thing in the world to you resting in my arms. If you want her, youe with me.¡± Idart my eyes in every possible direction, trying to figure out an oue where I don¡¯t end up with a psychopath. Suddenly the man falls to his knees, letting out a groan of pain. One by one every rogue with him follows suit, all of them reaching up to clutch their heads. Without even thinking I make a run for Meda, catching her just as the man drops her to relocate his hands to his hair, groaning even louder from pain. Backing up to my mates, I look around. ¡°What is happening?¡± I ask, rocking Meda slightly. She¡¯s been screaming this entire time, and is only now back to And then it hits me. Only one being has this much control over werewolves. ¡°The moon goddess,¡± I whisper. And, just like that, the goddess herself emerges from the tree line. All the rogues let go of their heads, looking slightly disoriented. ¡°Go back to yournd, rogues,¡± Shemands in a booming voice that makes all of them bow in submission, and immediately turn around. I realize that she has the ultimate Alphamand over Werewolves. As the rogues retreat, her eyes lock on mine. ¡°The Delta is back, and he will not rest. Pick your battles carefully, but know that battles areing.¡± With that sliver of wisdom, she¡¯s gone. ¡°S**t¡± Damon mutters from behind me. Chapter 28 Chapter 28 Chapter Twenty Eight Cuddle Damon POV It¡¯s been about two days since the rogue attack, and Amira has been uncharacteristically quiet. I would give anything to know what¡¯s going on in that beautiful, precious, and perfect head of hers. We hired a full-time nanny for Meda, so that we could get back to school. Today is day 1 of being back, and Amira hasn¡¯t said much. None of us have any sses together, but at lunch she just had her chin propped in her hand. The only time she smiled was when her best friend, Samantha, ambushed her-but even then it wasn¡¯t fully genuine. I know she¡¯s concerned, we all are, but there¡¯s something else going on. I can tell. I look at her untouched tray, and make eye contact with Erebus and Christian, both of whom transferred to our school. We recently established a mind link, and are nning to merge our packs- which conveniently are all on neighboring territories. What¡¯s up with her?I ask over mindlink. No clue. The f**k if I know I furrow my brow at their responses. She has had a lot on her te before The Delta, so I think she¡¯s just overwhelmed. I¡¯m surprised she¡¯s not having mental breakdowns with how much stress she¡¯s under, especially being a white wolf. They feel emotion on a much higher level, Christian reasons. We¡¯re Alpha¡¯s. We feel very deeply as well, Erebus responds. But she¡¯s a white wolf, Erebus. She is going to feel deeper than all of usbined. The fact that she¡¯s still functioning is, frankly, impressive, Christian retorts. So what do we do? I question. N?velDrama.Org exclusive content. My wolf is encouraging me to f**k the quietness out of her, as I¡¯m sure Christian and Erebus¡¯s wolfs are, but I don¡¯t know if that¡¯s the productive thing to do right now. I nce at Samantha, who holds the same worried look as the rest of us. ¡°Baby?¡± Christian asks Amira tentatively. She looks up from her te. ¡°Yeah?¡± ¡°Are you okay?¡± She clears her throat. ¡°Yeah. Of course.¡± She stands up and gives us a brief smile before dumping her lunch tray and walking off, presumably to the library. I turn to Samantha. ¡°You two talked for like an hour this morning, do you know what¡¯s going on with her?¡± Samantha sighs. ¡°She seriously needs attention and affection. She even admitted it. But she also admitted that she¡¯s hard headed and independent enough to fight it. She said, and I quote, ¡°I¡¯d probably need to be held down and cuddled, and even then I¡¯d fight because I¡¯m so hard headed. But I won¡¯t lie, it¡¯ll be both a turn on and helpful.¡± If that doesn¡¯t tell you guys what to do, I don¡¯t know what does.¡± I smirk. I know our little mate likes to be held down. ¡°Is there anything else you can tell us?¡± I question. ¡°She¡¯s overwhelmed. She¡¯s been at the center of conflict her entire life-but it was previously from bullying,¡± Samantha pauses to give Eros a pointed look. ¡°And she got a year and a half reprieve from that, but now she¡¯s at the center of conflict again. She¡¯s honestly just at a loss of what to do or how to feel, which is making her shut down.¡± I run a hand through my hair, contemting what action I should take. Sure, Ipletely n on forcing her to cuddle with me, but what else? What does she need? ¡°What else can we do for her?¡± and a baby thrown in there-she¡¯s exhausted. Even if she won¡¯t admit to it.¡± Cuddle her to sleep. Got it. ¡°Thank you, Samantha. Let us know if there¡¯s anything else.¡± She nods and offers all of us a small smile before walking out of the cafeteria and to ss. The rest of school passes slowly, and I honestly just can¡¯t wait to have my beautiful mate in my arms. Since I¡¯m the most dominant, Christian and Erebus said nothing when I imed that I would be the first to hold and cuddle her at home. So once I¡¯m home, I head straight to her room. She¡¯s startled when I walk in without knocking, looking up from herptop. I nce around to see that in the ten minutes since she¡¯s been home, she¡¯s set up her textbooks all around her along with packets of assignments, and herptop resting on herp. My little mate really is a perfectionist and workaholic. I slowly walk up to her, looking her over and appreciating her delicious body before starting to move her homework from the bed. ¡°Hey! Damon, I need those!¡± I shake my head as I stack the textbooks and papers before reaching for herptop. She clings on tight, though, being defiant. ¡°Being a workaholic is not what you need, baby. She spares me half a nce. ¡°Yeah? What do I need?¡± Chapter 29 Chapter 29 Chapter Twenty Nine Talk to me Amira POV I snort at Damon¡¯sment, not knowing how else to respond. ¡°Can you move? I have homework.¡± Damon remains staring at me. ¡°Amira, I know you¡¯re ahead in all of your sses.¡± fxxk. ¡°Right, and I want to get farther ahead.¡± When he doesn¡¯t move shift on the bed to reach the stack of textbooks he made on the floor. He moves to block me, making me re at him. ¡°What do you want, Damon?¡± ¡°I want you to tell me what¡¯s going on with you, baby. You¡¯ve been quiet and distant since the rogues came, and it¡¯s worrying all of us. Please talk to me.¡± I swear internally, knowing that Samantha must have outed me. ¡°I¡¯m okay.¡± Damon raises his eyebrow, and I throw my hands up. ¡°I am okay! Nobody¡¯s dead or dying, the world isn¡¯t ending, and everyone¡¯s currently safe.¡± ¡°Amira, you can¡¯t base your own wellbeing on your surroundings. That¡¯s not how it works. You have a lot going on. Just talk to me,¡± he begs. ¡°I don¡¯t feel like talking!¡± ¡°I don¡¯t care. You¡¯re going to talk to me, or I will make you wish you did.¡± I shake my head at him. ¡°Go away, Damon.¡± ¡°Alright, you brought this on yourself.¡± In a few swift movements Damon¡¯s suddenly on the bed, with me straddling him sitting in hisp. He has an iron grip around my waist, making struggling pointless. So I just try to reach the textbooks behind me, making Damon growl in annoyance. He tugs me away, tightening his hold on me even more. ¡°Talk to me baby, please.¡± ¡°It doesn¡¯t even matter!¡± ¡°Sweetheart, it matters to me.¡± And I cave. Tears slip down my cheeks and I speak with a trembling voice. ¡°I¡¯m just overwhelmed. I don¡¯t understand why me? Why does it always have to be me? When I was younger, it was the constant bullying. Then it was trying to master my powers-which I can¡¯t seem to do no matter how f*****g hard I try! Everyone has told me to give things time, that time heals all. But time won¡¯t change my childhood of bullying. Time won¡¯t takeaway every memory of every time I¡¯ve f****d up. And even more, time won¡¯t bring back my parents. They abandoned me three times. Once when I ran away and they didn¡¯t look for me. And then they f*****g died! Leaving me with unresolved feelings, and an infant to raise! I¡¯m not even a legal adult, how the f**k am I going to raise a baby right? And I know what I¡¯m thinking isn¡¯t rational. That it¡¯s stupid and doesn¡¯t make any sense. But I can¡¯t stop. So that¡¯s why I¡¯m quiet. I don¡¯t want to explode. I¡¯m waiting for my emotional storm to blow over.¡± By the end I¡¯m hupping and sobbing. Damon stares at me intently before pressing his forehead against mine. ¡°Your feelings are valid. They do make sense. Even if it was unintentional, you were abandoned. Even though you¡¯re working on you powers and acknowledge it will take time, it is frustrating. And your childhood trauma won¡¯t go away, but baby, it will get better.¡± He shifts so that he¡¯s cradling me to his chest. ¡°When was thest time you slept?¡± ¡°Two days ago,¡± I admit. Damon sighs and clicks his tongue before moving again so that we¡¯reying on the bed. My back is to his chest, and his arm is possessively wrapped around my waist. It only take minutes for me to sink into a I hold Amira as close to me as possible without suffocating her.

There¡¯s an arm draped around my waist that¡¯s holding me snugly to my most dominant mate. I smile to myself at how Damon listened to me being a little b***h and still validated me. Still showed me the love that I¡¯ll never admit I so desperately want. I slowly untangle myself from his hold, but he lets out a low growl. ¡°Don¡¯t you know not to run away from a wolf?¡± He questions, opening his eyes. ¡°I thought you were asleep,¡± I admit, giving him a small smile. ¡°I was until you assumed you were free to leave me as you please.¡± Taking a hold of my arm, he pulls me back so I¡¯m cuddling him.

A knock on the door sounds, and I shift my leg to get off the bed, but Damon grabs it in a former grip. .. ¡°Mine,¡± he growls in my ear, before beckoning whoever¡¯s at the door to enter. 1. The nanny carefully steps in, offering Damon and I a warm smile. ¡°Meda¡¯s been a bit fussy and I think she needs her mother and fathers. Erebus and Christian are busy with border patrols right now, but would you like to check on her?¡± I tense at the words ¡°mother and father¡±. ¡°Sister and Sisters mate,¡± I correct. The nanny¡¯s eyes widen. ¡°Of course, my apologies.¡± With that, the nanny turns to leave. This time when I remove myself from Damon¡¯s arms he doesn¡¯t pull me back, instead standing up to go check on Meda with me. We walk to the nursery hand in hand, and I see Meda lying in the nanny¡¯s arms. But, as the nanny N?velDrama.Org exclusive content. described, she is crying. ¡°Has she been fed and changed?¡± I question, walking up to take her from the woman¡¯s arms. ¡°Yes, Luna. Of course.¡± I carefully pick up Meda, and as soon as she¡¯s settled in my arms, she quiets down. I pepper her head with kisses. ¡°It¡¯s alright, baby. I¡¯m here now. Meda smiles at me before turning her attention to Damon and holding out her hands in a nonverbal gesture of wanting to be held. A smile breaks out on my face as I realize truly how much Meda¡¯s To an extent, I feel horrid leaving her with a nanny. But, at the same time, I can¡¯t spend all my time with her. At the end of the day she isn¡¯t my daughter, and I am not ready to be a mother. Damon¡¯s parents normally take care of her when I¡¯m not avable, but they¡¯ve been gone more and more. Her squeal brings me out of my musings, and I see Damon toss her up and catch her. ¡°If you drop her, I¡¯ll kill you,¡± I warn. ¡°Careful, babygirl. Or daddy will punish youter,¡± he says, eyes locked with mine. A blush scorches across my cheeks and I pluck Meda out of his arms, taking a seat on the chair next to the crib and getting ready to put her to sleep. Suddenly the door bursts open, revealing a very flustered Christian and Erebus. ¡°What¡¯s wrong?¡± I question, giving Meda another kiss. ¡°The Delta¡­ he sent a message.¡± I tense, handing Meda back to the nanny and ushering my mates out the door. I don¡¯t want anyone overhearing whatever they have to say, because it seems serious. me. A carefully arranged pile of dead body adorns the driveway to the packhouse, And at the very end, a message is written in chalk. ¡°Want me to stop? No more body¡¯s to drop? Do not deny, Give me my prize. The white wolf is my key, and I need her to open a door. Surrender now and nothing else will happen to your people. Delta.¡± Chapter 31 Chapter 31 Chapter Thirty One Amira POV I stare down at the note, a storm of emotions swirling within me. The Delta. Someone I hadn¡¯t even heard of until a few days ago. The mythical nemesis of the Moon Goddess. I look around at all of the death, and have to force myself to stay professional. ¡®Who are they?¡± ¡°Lower ranking pack members. Mainly Omega¡¯s,¡± Christian informs. ¡°Families?¡± I question. ¡°None.¡± I nod, before looking carefully at each face out of he dozen. N?vel(D)ra/ma.Org exclusive ? material. The Delta took the life of every single person here, unrepentantly. Which means hecks the inner morality to care about others-all he cares about is his goal. But what is that goal? He clearly stated that he needs me to be able to aplish something. But what is it that he needs to aplish? ¡°Baby, are you alright?¡± Erebus asks behind me. I blink ck tears, fighting the knowledge that a dozen people were killed over me. And The Delta won¡¯t have a problem killing dozens more. Unable to look at their faces, and not wanting anyone to have to clean up this gory scene, I set the body¡¯s and the message on fire with a small swish of my wrist. The Moon Goddess (Selene) POV He¡¯s back. He¡¯s truly and genuinely back. I knew it would happen eventually, but there was no warnings that it would happen so unbearably soon. However, The Delta is back-and he wants what he¡¯s always wanted. Me. Before humans walked the earth, there were only Gods and Deity¡¯s. We resided both on earth. It could almost be said that we were once like the humans, but with special gifts and powers. But, when humanity emerged, we all moved to respective heavens. Most Greek gods came together to create Mount rule together. Christian angels and the Christian god moved to heaven itself- a kingdom in the sky. I, however, broke off with my betrothed-Delta. I was barren, and our child would mark the beginning of a new species. A mixture between human and the most majestic animal. Creatures with just enough magic within them to make them exceptional, but not enough magic to make them god-like. Creatures that could choose what form they walked in. I was beyond ecstatic with the pregnancy, and the fact that I would be mother of a species. I wanted to seed. I wanted my children to be sessful. But Delta only wanted me. With time, he grew frustrated at my He exined this to me on numerous asions, however I had managed to make him see reason. Instilled excitement in him that he would be the father of a beautiful species. And he seemed open to reason. Or so I had na?vely thought. I had ignored all of the warning signs. Overlooked everything that should have worried me. Thus, it took me byplete surprise when he drew a de deep into my womb one night as I slept. He attempted to abort the child. Our child. Because I wasn¡¯t giving him as much attention as he longed for. . properly wield. The consequence was a natures curse. A curse that my species would not be united. That, like humans, it will divide. War. Have conflict. Blinded with rage, I had locked Delta away in the deepest and darkest part of my moon kingdom while I began raising a child. I, again, used dangerous magic to replicate the first child, just in a separate gender. I nursed a species into prosperity. Eventually, I had to send my Werewolves to the earth. There was too much conflict amongst them for them to continue living in the moon kingdom. And, as time went on, I eventually stopped thinking about Delta. Yet the bastard somehow managed to get set free. However, once you leave the moon kingdom, only I can let you back in. That is, unless, you¡¯re a white wolf. A white wolf has a direct link to me. They are able to enter and exit the moon kingdom at will. They can also bring people in and out. The Delta wants back in. He wants revenge. And he¡¯s going to try to use Amira to get to me. In the past, when I¡¯ve faced difficulties, I turn to my fellow gods on Olympus for help. But I don¡¯t want to burden them with this. I¡¯m having to face the consequences of an action, even though it¡¯s an action I carried out over a thousand years ago. I have nobody to me but myself. had every intention of going to earth to get rid of Delta once and for all, but I¡¯m not strong enough to defeat him when on earth. However he¡¯s drawing strength from rogue wolves, in return giving them false promises of world domination. So he¡¯s stronger then me on earth. But in the heavens? We¡¯re equals. Just like we once were in life. The Delta POV I retract my hand from the chest of a rogue wolf who¡¯s been allowing me to feed on his essence. Since the rogues freed me because of thepulsion I managed to put them under, I have continued One of them being allowing me to take parts of their essence, or souls, in order to help strengthen my powers while on earth. A knock suddenly sounds on the door of my bedroom, and I swiftly go to open it. ¡°Did Amira receive my gift?¡± I ask, once her fourth mate-a rogue Alpha named Jeremy-walks in. I had to put extra effort into hispulsion, since his initial reaction to his mate was to cuddle her and give her all the love he possibly can. But I managed to set him straight, and make him rtively evil. ¡°She did indeed. And her reaction was rather priceless,¡± Jeremy says. I give him a satisfied smirk. ¡°Go on,¡± I invite. ¡°She set all of the corpses and your message on fire, before breaking down and starting to set other s**t on fire, too. Eventually her other mates got a hold of her and dragged her into the house, pretty much kicking and screaming. I think we¡¯re close to breaking her.¡± Chapter 32 Chapter 32 Chapter Thirty Two Amira POV Insane. Insane I¡¯m going f*****g insane. Is this what having a psychotic break is like? As soon as I saw the bodies, something in me snapped. Because I knew it was my fault. I don¡¯t remember much, other than an all-consuming sorrow. A sorrow that very quickly morphed into an absolute rage. Since it was my fault, I wanted to punish myself. So after setting a bunch of s**t on fire, I was ready to hurt myself. Teven thought about suicide, but couldn¡¯t leave little Meda behind. My mates sensed that, and managed to calm me down. That was about two days ago, and I¡¯ve been mentally and physically checked out. I¡¯ve wanted to go out and destroy S**t, but at least one of my mates is constantly with me. Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. I know they¡¯re at least somewhat happy, because they get to totally take care of me with minimal protests on my part. I don¡¯t have enough energy to protest I don¡¯t have enough energy to do anything. ¡°Amira, love, you need to eat. Please. You need your strength if we¡¯re going to take down those motherfuckers,¡± Christians voice prates my mental fog. I blink my way out of my thoughts, looking down at the dining room table. When did I get here? In front of me sits a delicious-looking chicken parmesan dish, and Christian is holding up a forkful of it in front of my mouth. I reach out to take the fork, and slowly start to eat. As I¡¯m chewing, I attempt to think about all the s**t I¡¯ve been missing. Responsibilities I¡¯ve been neglecting while I¡¯ve been off in Lland. ¡°I¡¯m sorry,¡± I whisper as soon as I¡¯m full. I look up to make eye contact with Christian, who¡¯s furrowing his eyebrows. ¡°For what, baby?¡± I sniff. ¡°For failing you. For being out of it thest few days. I¡¯m so f*****g sorry.¡± And I genuinely am. I know that I¡¯m going through S**t that no human should have to go through. I know I¡¯m having a stupid difficult time with everything around me right know, and I know that there are hundreds of people targeting me and wanting to either kill or use me. But that doesn¡¯t excuse me being out of it. I lean in, pecking Christian on the lips before standing up. ¡°Where are you going?¡± he asks, standing with me. I offer him a smile. ¡°To see our babygirl.¡± His grin pretty much lights up the room as he follows me towards Meda¡¯s room. I wipe away a tear of my own as I offer her a big smile. She looks at me, tears welling up in her eyes, and I realize. She assumed 1 abandoned her. Just like mom and dad did when they passed. God, 1 f****d up. I¡¯m gonna have to spend a lot more time with her to make up for thest few days. Meda tentatively nces at me before holding up her hands in a gesture letting me know that she wants to be held. I smile widely at her. ¡°Anything for my babygirl,¡± I say, picking her up. As soon as I have her in my arms, the tension seeps from her limbs and she rests her head on my chest. ¡°Her sleeping schedule has been off for the five days you were out.¡± I freeze. Five days? I thought it was two, max! f**k me¡­ ¡°She¡¯s been giving the nanny a difficult time, and she¡¯ll only respond so much to Erebus, Damon and I while you¡¯re not there.¡± T hear two pairs of footstepse into the room, and turn around to see that Damon and Erebus have arrived. ¡°f*****g hell, it¡¯s good to have you back,¡± Damon whispers. Both he and Erebus are looking at Meda and I with adoration. ¡°I¡¯m sorry. I¡¯m so sorry that I totally checked out. I just¡­ I guess I felt like it would be stupid for me to say anything since I know that all of you have seen way worse.¡± Erebus steps closer to me, carefully wrapping his arms around me-making sure he doesn¡¯t smother little Meda. ¡°Please talk to us next time. Vent, scream, yell, anything other than shutting down. It¡¯s been hell without you.¡± peck him on the lips. ¡°I promise I¡¯ll talk to you next time.¡± Because I¡¯m positive there will be a next time. Chapter 33 Chapter 33 Chapter Thirty-Three Christian POV Erebus, Damon and I are taking Amira out for dinner tonight to a very nice high-ss restaurant. And afterwards we¡¯re taking her to the b**m club I own with Erebus and Damon. All three of us had invested in the club, Dungeon, before we even knew each other since the club is bordering all three territories. And recently the owner got ¡°sick¡± of the club, and ended up selling it to us. We have people that run the ce for us, but at the end of the day it¡¯s ours. Being able to say that I own a b**m club is kind of awesome. I nce at Damon and Erebus, both of whom are sitting on the couches in the living room with me while we wait for Amira. ¡°We need to leave in five minutes,¡± Damonments, adjusting his bow tie. The restaurant we¡¯re going to requires formal wear, and all of us are itching to see what Amira¡¯s going to put on for us. I¡¯m also dying to know what she¡¯ll have on under it. ¡°She¡¯ll be ready on time. She always is,¡± Erebus I initially thought that I would detest having to share Amira, but I¡¯ve bonded with Damon and Erebus on a substantial level. I feel like they¡¯re brothers, and I¡¯m okay sharing with them. I¡¯m happy sharing with them. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. The moon goddess really helped us out. I hear the clicking of heels down the marble staircase and sit up, ready for Amira to walk into the room. All three of us stand up and look to the doorway in anticipation, but none of us are ready for how gorgeous Amira looks. Damon POV f**k. That¡¯s all I have to say¡­ f**k. Amira stands in the doorway wearing a floor length ck gown, encrusted in Swarovski crystals. I know, because I bought it for her a few months ago when I meant to take her to a ball. I smile as I realize that I promised her I¡¯d take her to a different one when we couldn¡¯t make it. The gown is mermaid-style and hugs her in all of the right ces. It has a plunging V-neck that¡¯s decorated with crystals, and the waistline is also adorned with crystals. I have to adjust my pants, and I¡¯m sure Erebus and Christian are having the same issue. ¡°Amira, god, you look gorgeous,¡± Erebus says. She smiles softly. ¡°You look stunning, baby,¡± Christian joins in. ¡°You look celestial, my love,¡± I finish off. All of theplements are 100% urate. Amira looks like a dreame true. Her hair is styled in perfect curls-not too bouncy, but not too loose. Her makeup consists of a dark grey/ck smokey eye, and her signature dark red lipstick. She looks gorgeous, sophisticated, and drop dead sexy at the same time. My erection is growing by the second, and soon it¡¯ll be painful. We all head over to Amira to give her a peck on the lips. The smart girl wore liquid lipstick, so it doesn¡¯t leave an imprint on any of our lips. I am thest to kiss her, and in turn attempt to lick into her mouth, but she denies me entry. ¡°Ah, ah, ah. Wait until after dinner.¡± I smile into her lips before pping her ass, causing her to gasp and giving me the perfect opportunity to explore her mouth thoroughly. ¡°d**k,¡± she mutters when I pull back. I simply smile at her, knowing that I¡¯ll get to punish herter with all of my favorite toys. Toys I know she¡¯ll both love and hate. I give her asmack on the ass as she walks away from me, causing her tough lightly. She is honestly too damn cute for her own good. I have a limo waiting for the four of us, and am excited for both dinner and the show afterwards. I help Amira step in before climbing in after her, sitting between Christian and Erebus before pulling Amira onto myp. Punishment #2 has been earned. I look at her with a wicked smile, and she tilts her head in confusion. ¡°So, where are we eating again?¡± She questions in her beautiful, delicate voice that always gets me instantly hard. I let out a deep breath knowing damn well that all of us will be painfully hard all night watching Amira eat. Christian clears his throat. ¡°Arguably the highest ss steakhouse in the country. I seriously doubt you¡¯ll be disappointed.¡± I nod. The three of us knew that Amira needed a night away from the Delta, away from everything. A night filled with nothing more than delicious food, greatpany, and hot steamy kinky S*X. ¡°Thank you, guys. You don¡¯t even know how much getting away from all the s**t going on means to me. Although I¡¯ve gone through periods of strong dislike towards all of you, I¡¯m incredibly lucky to have you for mates.¡± I feel my heart warm in my chest at Amira¡¯s kind words. I know that there¡¯s nothing the three of us won¡¯t do for her. She¡¯s our beautiful, lovely, gorgeous, sexy as hell, perfect mate. She offers us a smile, and Jesus f*****g Christ it¡¯s the most beautiful smile I¡¯ve ever seen. But I honestly can¡¯t decide which face I like more¡­ the one she makes when she¡¯s orgasming repeatedly, or her smileugh. I guess I can reevaluate after dinner. Initially we had considered having a foursome, but Christian t-out refused one. So we¡¯re all going to take turns in a private room with her, and Erebus and I will finish it off with a threesome. Amira doesn¡¯t know the ns, but I have no doubt she¡¯ll love it. As the limo pulls up to the restaurant and we¡¯re seated, I know that neither any male in the restaurant nor us can look away from the celestial beauty of Amira. Unsurprisingly she orders a 40oz steak with absolutely no shame, causing me to chuckle. Amira has never given a S**t about vain stuff such as only ordering a sd on a date. She¡¯ll get whatever she¡¯s hungry for, and she won¡¯t regret it. And the three of us very much enjoy watching her eat. Painfully so. Erebus POV As we pull up to the club after dinner, I am ecstatic. I finally get to have Amira. All of Amira. And I can¡¯t f*****g wait. Damon, Christian and I own this club/dungeon, so we had no issue getting the best room booked for the night. As soon as we step out of the car and into the club, Damon holds Amira¡¯s hands behind her back while I snap on a pair of handcuffs, catching her by surprise. ¡°Hey! What the f-¡°| cut off her swear with a sharp p on the ass. I know that I¡¯m bordering on full dom mode, and I¡¯m sure that Damon and Christian aren¡¯t far off. Whenever I walk into a b**m club or dungeon, I immediately go into dominant mode. It¡¯s natural, and from what I know, most dommes experience it. So I hope to heaven that Amira is ready for what we all have in store for her. ¡°Quiet, or I will gag you. Do you understand?¡± I growl in her ear. ¡°Yes, sir,¡± she breathes out. I smile. Tonight I want her to call me daddy. ¡°Daddy. Tonight you will address me as daddy,¡± I say, snaking a hand around her neck. ¡°Yes, daddy,¡± she purrs, and I can tell she¡¯s smiling despite her facing away from me. ¡°Christian, Erebus, I¡¯m going to go freshen up. Are you okay to take her to the room?¡± I get a nod from both, who walk off with Amira while I head to the bathroom to relieve myself. I make my way into the room we reserved for tonight, and see Christian and Damon outside the door. ¡°She¡¯s waiting for you,¡± Damon says with a smirk while pping my back. ¡°You¡¯ll have fun. She¡¯s an incredible fuck.¡± ¡°Thank you. You¡¯ll know when I¡¯m done when the moans and screams stop,¡± I say with a smile, before walking into the door. Whenever I scene with a girl, one of the biggest turn-ons is the noises they make. I can¡¯t f*****g wait to have Amira screaming for me. I look around the familiar room, appreciating the toys strewn all over, before my eyes fall back on Amira. She¡¯s kneeling in the center of the floor, naked, with a blindfold over her eyes. I can¡¯t help the groan that escapes my lips at the Jimmie appears on Amira¡¯s lips. It amuses me how she¡¯s somewhat shy despite being handcuffed, blindfolded, and naked in front of me like a f*****g offering. I start slowly stripping my clothing off, watching Amira carefully. Her breathing is slightly elerated but primarily even, and the way her breasts move with every rise and fall has my already erect C**k hardening even more. Much more. ¡°Are you ready, babygirl?¡± I ask while walking around the room and putting various items on a table in the middle of the room, right next to Amira. ¡°Yes, daddy.¡± Taking a grip of her hair I stand her up, before helping her walk to where I n on having her most, if not all, of tonight. It¡¯s a big wooden X that allows you to lock your sub in almost any standing/ partially suspended position you want. I start out with just fastening her arms and legs to the corners of the X, letting me have a spread-eagle view of her beautiful body. I can walk around back to have full ess to her ass, and her front ispletely exposed to me. Perfect Walking to the table I grab a small vibrator and a flexible paddle. Pain and pleasure get wondrous responses from women. Going back to Amira I carefully position the vibrator on her clit, taping it in ce, before picking up the remote control. ¡°What is that?¡± she wonders, and her answer is the strong vibrations that start echoing through the room. She immediately jolts, probably not used to such a strong sensation. When I use vibrators, I use the strongest ones avable. I don¡¯t like doing s**t half-way. While she¡¯s slightly pulling at her restraints and adjusting to the pleasure I walk around to her back, and smack the paddle on her ass. She lets out a moan. Over the next few minutes, as she nears her orgasm, I steadily increase the intensity with which I¡¯m hitting her, making sure she¡¯s getting equal amounts pain and pleasure. And, just as she¡¯s about to screams out while squirting on the floor. ******g perfect Putting the paddle down and taking the vibrator off I undo her leg restraints. ¡°Wrap your legs around me, baby,¡± Imand, slipping on a condom before standing right in front of her. I would rather go raw, but I know Damon and Christian will probably want to eat her out and I don¡¯t want to interfere with that. Her legse around my waist just as my hand goes around her neck, and I swiftly enter her. As soon as I¡¯m inside she lets out a loud moan and I groan. How f*****g long I¡¯ve waited to be inside of her. I¡¯ve found my new heaven. Chapter 34 Chapter 34 Chapter Thirty-Four Amira POV When Erebus finishes off with me he leaves me on the X, panting from the scene. I never kn masochist but when the vibrator was mixed with the paddle, the pain and pleasure mixed to maximize the pain. ¡°Although I¡¯d love to taste you, you still need some energy for Christian and Damon. Christian will be her in just a minute.¡± Before leaving Erebus kisses me deeply, leaving me even more out of breath than I already am. I can only thank the Goddess that I have a lot of energy and stamina as a white wolf. Because if I didn¡¯t¡­ I wouldn¡¯t be able to physically handle anything more. But I can, and despite being tired, I know I¡¯ll be able to take more. The blindfold is still on, and I have to say, loosing sight seriously heightens my sensitivity to touch. Almost painfully so, but I love it. I turn my head towards the doorway when I hear it open and close. Christian¡¯s here. I hear him take steps towards me, before the ruffling of clothing gives away that he¡¯s stripping. N?velDrama.Org exclusive content. After about thirty seconds the ruffling stops, making way for silence before I feel a hand brush my n****e, causing me to jump. . I feel Christian slowly undo all of my restraints, causing me to sag slightly. Scooping me up in a bridal hold he carries be away from the wooden X, before dropping me on what must be the bed. Without speaking he positions me spread-eagle before securing me in ce with padded leather cuffs. The material is soft on my wrists and ankles, definitely a relief after the metal cuffs on the cross. Once I¡¯m effectively stuck in ce, Christian hums in approval. I feel him running a finger along my folds. ¡°Mmm, you are wet.¡± His fingers leave my slick rfolds and I hear sucking noises, indicating that he¡¯s licking my juices off of his fingers. ¡°And you¡¯re f*****g delicious,¡± he murmurs seductively. His fingers return to my core, and he uses both thumbs to spread my folds before I feel his tongue p***y, alternating teasing around my clit with plunging inside of me. ¡°Exquisite,¡± he whispers, before continuing. Moans are continuously escaping my mouth, seeming to only spurn Christian on. He licks and teases until I can hardly stand anymore, before suddenly retreating. I let out a whimper at the loss of my contact because I was about to climax, but hisck of presence is quickly diminished when I feel him running his c**k along my folds. I can tell he¡¯s wearing a condom, but the sensation is still absolutely incredible. My breathing picks up speed even more than it did when he was eating me out. ¡°Oh, Goddess¡­ Oh, f**k!¡± He lets out a deep, sexy chuckle at my reaction, before smoothly entering me. I let out a guttural groan as my inner muscles start to flutter, telling both of us that I¡¯m right on the edge. Three thrusts. It takes only three f*****g thrusts for me to shatter,ing all over his massive c**k. ¡°Ahh, mmm¡­ f**k, I don¡¯t know if I can take this,¡± I moan out, feeling ridiculously sensitive. And Damon hasn¡¯t even shown up yet. He loves to y with my clit. ¡°You¡¯ll take it, baby. You¡¯ll take it because you have no other choice,¡± Christian growls, before resting his thumb on my clit. He doesn¡¯t move it around yet, but just holds it there, letting me know that he can increase this incredible torture at any moment he wants. I let out a small cry. ¡°Oh, God,¡± I manage to say,pletely overwhelmed at the sensation. His thumb unintentionally moves, ever so sensation of being at Christians mercy. And although it¡¯s a f*****g huge turn on, it¡¯s also vulnerable. I can¡¯t help but be d it¡¯s him and not Damon right now, because Damon would happily spend half an hour just making mee over, and over, and over again. As my mates, there¡¯s really no limit to how many times any of them can make me reach my climax. The mate bond allows for them to give me or deny me as many orgasms as they feel like giving me. Tapping his thumb on my clit a few times, Christian brings me out of my thoughts. ¡°Tell me when you¡¯re ready,¡± he says softly, and I know he means for me to tell him when I¡¯m ready for him to start rubbing my clit. Closing my eyes I take a deep breath before nodding at him. A torturously pleasurable feeling erupts through my entire body as he starts rubbing circles on my clit slowly, and my entire body starts shaking. I can also feel him pulsing inside of me, and it¡¯s about thirty seconds before wee undone and climax at the same time. ¡°Damon will probably want you showered,¡± Christian whispers in my ear, before removing my restraints and slipping off my blindfold. I blink multiple times, trying to adjust to the light and my surroundings. I see Christian smiling down at me first, causing me to smile in return. ¡°I have no f*****g idea how I¡¯m going to survive Damon,¡± I admit. Christian leans down to inhale my scent. ¡°You¡¯ll manage.¡± With that he carefully picks me up, carrying me to the far end of the room where he opens a door, leading into a bathroom. There¡¯s arge shower that also appears to have restraint systems in it. ¡°Don¡¯t worry. I¡¯m just washing you, we¡¯re done for tonight, he assures, before opening the ss door, turning on the warm water, and setting me down. As promised Christian just carefully washes my entire body and even hair, using gentle and massaging strokes. He¡¯s definitely the softy out of the three, but he¡¯s also ridiculously smart and strong like the other two. They just all show their love in unique and different ways, which I can¡¯tin about, I mean, they¡¯ve all f****d up to an extent. But they¡¯re alpha werewolves, so I should have expected that they¡¯d all want to take what they can¡¯t get with force¡­ especially if that is their mate. Damon stood by and watched as Erebus and Christian forcefully sank their fangs into my neck Erebus bullied me for years. And Christian¡­ well, Christian¡¯s the least at fault of them all, but he did mark me with out my consent and despite my loud protests. ¡°I love you,¡± Christian says. ¡°I love you too,¡± I finally admit Chapter 35 Chapter 35 Chapter Thirty-Five Damon, Christian, Erebus and I sit in a restaurant-about to enjoy a candle-lit dinner. Hopefully followed by some bedroom fun, which I suspect it will, knowing my mates. My mates cleared booked the entire restaurant, so that we can have privacy. I guess there are perks to having three rich, Alpha males as mates. I look up as a waiter approaches. He appears to be a teenager, which is kind of at odds with him working in such a high end restaurant. The ce is Italian, and was originally family-owned-before the food started attracting high-end customers, and it expanded. ¡°Good evening, my name is Leo. I¡¯ll be your server tonight. May I get you started with drinks?¡± he asks, sending me a flirtatious smile that I return with a prim one of my own. Damon growls at Leo, who swiftly lowers his eyes, before ordering a fancy-sounding bottle of wine for Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. the four of us. Leo gives a quick nod before turning on his heel and heading away. Once he disappears into the kitchen, Damon turns to me as a wicked smile adorns his face. He slips his hand into his suit pocket, retrieving a tiny device with a few buttons on it. ¡°I have a surprise for you,¡± he says. Something tells me this surprise is going to be very s****l. Damon clicks a button on the remote, and suddenly vibrations start up in my panties. I jolt, standing up out of instinct ¡°Sit down,¡± Erebus growls. The dom voice he¡¯s using makes me instantly obey-dropping back down into my seat. The added friction of being seated on something makes the sensation rippling through my p***y more intense. I give Damon a both questioning and desperate look. When heid out my clothes, I noticed that he got me a new pair of panties, but I never thought that they would turn into a vibrator onmand. ¡°s*x stores sell the most enticing things these days. Like panties with special vibrating pads built into them.¡± He presses a button on the remote several times, and the vibrations be more intense. ¡°Please, not now,¡± I moan out, trying to fight the sensations bombarding me. But it¡¯s no use. When Damon wants to do something to me, he does it. No if, and¡¯s, or but¡¯s. Damon leans forward in his seat, and I have to fight the moan threatening to escape my throat. ¡°You have two options, Amira. Option one, you sit here-and enjoy the vibrations from your panties. You cane as many times as you want. Option two, you disobey, and get the whipping of a century when we get home.¡± Christian, who¡¯s seated beside me, reaches out and grabs my chin, turning so that I¡¯m looking at him. His eyes ze with intensity as he watches my features that quiver from the pleasure coursing through me. ¡°Choose, Amira.¡± My ass is still sore from the spanking I received the other day-when I pissed Erebus off my identally skipping a couple meals. It¡¯s not my fault that I was busy and had s**t to do. ¡°Option one,¡± I murmur. Damon gives me a pleased smile. ¡°Good.¡± My three mates proceed to dive into a conversation about Alpha duties, ignoring my shallow pants. Christian¡¯s hand still rests on my thigh, rubbing slow, erotic circles on my skin. I don¡¯t know what it is with the three of them and orgasms, but I think it has to do something with the bond. When I receive pleasure, or orgasm, the feel a fundamental pleasure from it. Not s****, necessarily, but the satisfaction they receive is soul-deep and intense. So, of course they¡¯d enjoy torturing me with orgasms. And I can¡¯t say I hate it. I mean, after a while I get sensitive, and I¡¯d never admit out loud just how much I love them takingplete control of me-my body, my pleasure, my very being. It¡¯s almost nice to have people I can somewhat trust with myself. Trust, as in I know that if they hurt me-they get hurt. And I doubt they¡¯d do that to themselves. Besides, outside of the bedroom, I really don¡¯t think they have a urge to hurt me. Physically or emotionally. Their protective sides have reallye out in the few weeks since we¡¯ve gone to the club. Unfortunately, that extends past checking in with emotional state regrly, since they also growl any time another guy looks at me for too long. The vibrations are upped again, drawing me out of my thoughts and into the present as I feel an orgasm Damon¡¯s ss Damon holds eye contact with me as he swirls the liquid around the ss before bringing the cup to his lips, he takes a sip, purposely running his tongue over the rim in an incredibly suggestive manner that brings me that much closer toing right in front of our waiter. He gives Leo a nod of approval, who proceeds to fill all of our sses a little past half way before making his way back to the kitchen. I reach for my ss, swallowing the contents in tworge gulps. Alcohol might help keep my orgasm at bay-though we still have the entire dinner to go. There¡¯s little doubt in my mind that I¡¯ll havee at least a dozen times before we get home. ¡°Are you alright, Amira?¡± Damon purrs, teasing me. I swallow and nod, reaching for the wine bottle and pouring myself another full ss. Erebus narrows his eyes at my actions. ¡°Think that¡¯ll stop you from soaking you chair?¡± he asks nonchntly. My eyes roll into the back of my head as the low, smoky rumble of his voice sends me over the edge. I bite down on my fist to keep myself from moaning. The vibrations are upped, yet again, and I think I¡¯m ready to go just about insane. Dinner is about to turn into one long, drawn-out orgasm marathon. Leoes back, and Damon orders my meal for me-which I¡¯m grateful for, because I don¡¯t think I could utter a single sentence without moaning. Without warning, Christian suddenly pulls me onto hisp. His hand slips under my dress and cups my p***y, pushing the vibrating fabric even tighter against my already swollen clit. ¡°You¡¯re evil,¡± I groan, as another orgasmes crashing over me. I grip a handful of Christian¡¯s dress shirt, riding out the sensations. Suddenly, and thankfully, the vibrations stop. I nce at Damon to see him pocketing the remote. I realize his reason for doing so when our food is ced in front of us. ¡°It¡¯ll be difficult to eat if you¡¯re orgasming,¡± he murmurs, giving me another one of his signature wicked smiles. I nod slowly, attempting to climb off Christian¡¯sp-only to have him hold me down with the arm wrapped around my waist. His hand leaves my p***y in favor of moving my delicious-looking pasta closer to him, picking up a forkful, and bringing it to my mouth. I ept the bite gratefully. I drink deeply when he holds a cup of water up to my lips. Dinner goes by with all three of my mates watching intently. And, just as our tes are cleared, the vibrations start up again ¡°No!¡± I squeak. ¡°Yes,¡± Damon retorts, watching me closely. ¡°I¡¯m not done with you yet, Amira. You may have gotten through dinner with some reprieve, but you will eat every bite of desert whileing for us, again and again. ¡°Please,¡± I beg as another orgasm crashes over to me. Damon opens his mouth to say something, but just at that moment, all the windows at the front of the restaurant suddenly shower-as bullets begin to rain down around us. Chapter 36 Chapter 36 Chapter Thirty-six Consciousness is slow to return to me. Before opening my eyes, I realize that I¡¯m unable to move my arms and legs, which sends a rush of panicked adrenaline through my body. My eyelids are nearly crusted together, but I manage to open my eyes and try to take in my surroundings through blurred vision. Darkness. My arms are chained to a wall and I¡¯m seated on a cold floor, withplete darkness surrounding me. The smell of blood weighs heavily in the air, and the faint scent of cement lingers. I blink several times to clear my vision, and am able to focus more. ¡¤ It¡¯s a small room, the size of a prison cell. At the front is a reinforced steel door. Even if I managed to get out of these chains, I doubt I¡¯ll get through that. I keep my breaths deep, trying to calm down enough to remember how I got here. Dinner with my mates. The ss shattering, the bullets¡­ Did my men get hurt? Are they alive? Questions run through my head at a million miles per second, and my breathing quickens. There aren¡¯t any injuries on my body, which bodes well for me, but there is a strong haze hanging over me that¡¯s impairing my mental state. In and out. Stay calm, cool, and collected. There¡¯s no use panicking in this situation, that¡¯ll just make things worse for me. After a few minutes of steadying my racing heart, I nce up at the chains and examine them. They¡¯re attached to the wall, and there doesn¡¯t appear to be any hope of getting out of them. Tears spark in my eyes as the beautiful faces of my mates sh in my mind. The bond! I still feel the bond with all three of them, which means they aren¡¯t dead. They may, however, be seriously wounded. With the woozy feeling still lingering, it¡¯s easy to deduce that I was drugged at some point between the bullets and now so I can¡¯t tap into the bond strongly enough to feel if any of them are in pain-but knowing they¡¯re alive has to be enough for now. I test the chains again, pulling with all of my might, and letting out a groan of frustration when they just don¡¯t budge. I freeze in my ministrations when I make out the echo of footsteps behind the door, straightening my spine and tilting my chin up in attempts to conceal the terror coursing through me. The door opens with a rusty creak, and the lights in the room flip on. It looks the same in the light as I made out in the darkness-a cell. But that doesn¡¯t give much indication as to my geographical location. I tense even further as a man steps into the room. He looks to be just under six feet tall, with short hair, a five-o-clock shadow, and absolutely jacked physique. He has a square jaw, and irises so dark they almost look ck. He looks to be in histe twenties, maybe early thirties. He¡¯s wearing a three piece suit with an expensive-looking watch wrapped around his wrist. The haze from the drugs clears up even more at the additional adrenaline from added danger, and I¡¯m able to tap into the bond and check on my mates. They¡¯re not in any physical pain, but all three of them are panicking. That could mean that they¡¯re safe away from here and only I was captured, or it could mean they¡¯re also chained to a wall somewhere. I don¡¯t pick up any of their scents in the air, so if they¡¯re prisoners they aren¡¯t nearby. ¡°Amira Warner,¡± he says in a gruff voice, walking over to me. I refuse to show fear even as my terror increases, instead schooling my features and giving him a cold look.¡± Yeah?¡± His chapped lips twitch slightly as he takes me in, dragging an ufortable gaze down my body that reminds me I¡¯m still in my dressst night. A dress that shows ample legs and cleavage, especially sitting down. ¡°Allow me to introduce myself. I¡¯m Aaron Kroll.¡± S**t. Aaron Kroll is an Alpha of a neighboring pack, and known for starting wars just for the hell of it. Content ? N?velDrama.Org 2024. Still, I don¡¯t allow him to see my recognition. The way I see it is either I¡¯m going to be killed or kept prisoner, and my best bet is to stall and hope my mates show up. I hate being in such a damsel-in-distress position, but really, what choice do I have? ¡°And I¡¯m bored. Can I go now?¡± I say, feigning nonchnce. thing to do. And I¡¯m yet to experience my intuition being wrong. As thest of the haze from the drugs clear, I hear three voices shouting frantically in my head. It seems my ability to mind-link had been chased away by whatever cocktail I was hit with. Amira, baby, please wake up. Answer me, Christian¡¯s voice coaxes. For the love of God, respond, Erebus¡¯s voice also sounds. I¡¯m losing my fo. **g mind, baby. Talk to me, Damon says, louder than the other two. I just woke up. I¡¯m in a cement cell somewhere chained to a wall. Aaron f*****g Kroll is my captor, and is looking at me with serious malicious intent I respond to all of them. They all start speaking back, too loud and fast for me to discern what¡¯s being said. One at a time, please, you¡¯re giving me a headache, I mind-link back, and the voices settle. What happened? Are you okay?I ask. We¡¯re fine, Damon responds. What do you remember? I try to focus. We were eating and talking at that restaurant, and then bullets started shooting. That¡¯s all I can remember. It was a kidnapping. The bullets were tranquilizers. We all got hit, and when we came to, you were gone. You¡¯ve been missing for four hours, Christian tells me. ¡°Having trouble calling out to your mates?¡± Kroll questions, giving me a pitying smile. ¡°The tranquilizers are still in your system. You won¡¯t be able to reach out for days, I¡¯m afraid.¡± The tranquilizers might have subdued a lesser wolf, but I¡¯m an Alpha and white wolf. My mates are all Alpha¡¯s. Kroll¡¯s too arrogant to realize the tranquilizers won¡¯t affect mind-linking for long. I don¡¯t tell him that though. Instead, I tilt my chin up and shrug my shoulders. ¡°Well, you¡¯ve got me all chained up. Care to let me in on your ns?¡± Kroll¡¯s gets more irritated at my behavior, but doesn¡¯t act on my taunts. Yet. Kroll thinks the drugs stop us from mind-linking, I say to all three mates. He always was an arrogant, tenacious fucker, Damon says. It rubs me the wrong way that he talks about Kroll as if he personally knows him. Trackers are after you right now, baby. It won¡¯t be long until they get to you. In the meantime, find out what he wants, Erebus says. Kroll squats down in front of me, reaching out to run a hand through my hair in a gesture that¡¯s far too intimate for captor and captive. ¡°I want to expand my territories. The poption of my pack is growing fast, and we¡¯re out ofnd. But your mates have an iron grip on all of our surrounding territories, and it doesn¡¯t look like they¡¯re letting that go without some¡­ persuasion.¡± Understanding dawns on me. ¡°You¡¯d go as far as to kidnap a mate of three Alpha¡¯s just to expand? Are you suicidal?¡± His eyebrows m down as he scowls at me. ¡°I¡¯m most certainly not suicidal, Amira. I¡¯m an opportunist.¡± | snort. ¡°And kidnapping me was an opportunity, how? You had three Alpha¡¯s under your thumb. You could¡¯ve killed them and taken their territory.¡± It¡¯s a lie. He¡¯d be dead in moments if he killed those Alpha¡¯s-people would seek revenge. Kroll lets out a chuckle, giving me a patronizing look. ¡°Had I killed them, my pack would¡¯ve been wiped out before I could even move in on their territories. Your mates have virtually no weaknesses, other than you. You are an opportunity, and I¡¯m taking it.¡± I blink at him. What makes him think my mates won¡¯t kill him and take back territories as soon as he hands me over to them? ¡°And how do you intend to keep these territories once you give me back?¡± I push, unable to find the logic in this madness. He gives me a wide grin. ¡°Giving you back? No, Amira. I¡¯ll be keeping you as coteral.¡± Chapter 37 Chapter 37 Chapter thirty-seven I quickly ry Kroll¡¯s words to my mates, receiving growls and snarls at the mention of Kroll wanting to keep me as coteral Our trackers have a scent. They¡¯ll close in on you soon. You¡¯ll be back in our arms in no time, Christian soothingly says. Hearing his wolf helps calm me, hearing that I¡¯ll be out of here soon is even better. ¡°Do you actually believe that n will work?¡± I ask, tilting my head like I¡¯m speaking to a child. ¡°Keeping an Alpha female away from her mates is an impossible job. Surely you know that. Surely you know you¡¯re not going to make it out of this situation alive.¡± A flicker of apprehension makes its way into Kroll¡¯s eyes, likely because he¡¯s realizing just how much he f****d up. And he monumentally f****d up. When any wolf¡¯s mate is in danger, there¡¯s apulsion that bubbles up inside of them to get to their mate. Saidpulsion has no boundaries, no barriers. The wolf will do any and everything necessary to get to their other half-even if that means burning down entire countries. Alpha wolves are ten times worse-their protective instincts are natural stronger, because they¡¯re born to lead packs and keep their members safe. I¡¯ve heard of Alpha¡¯s going rogue while searching for their mate. ¡°It doesn¡¯t take a genius to know kidnapping an Alpha¡¯s mate is a death sentence. Now kidnapping someone who belongs to three Alpha¡¯s?¡± I tsk. ¡°That¡¯s a stupid move if I¡¯ve ever seen one.¡± Kroll scowls at me, straightening his spine and trying to make himself seem intimidating, which fails in a truly spectacr fashion. ¡°You¡¯re pretty confident for someone chained to a wall,¡± he sneers. I smile. ¡°And you¡¯re starting to shake with fear.¡± Which satisfies me far more than it should. When my mates get here, and I haveplete confidence they will, I¡¯m willing to bet I¡¯ll get my pound of flesh for the S**t I¡¯m having to deal with. And I honestly can¡¯t wait to f**k Kroll up beyondpare. ¡ª An explosion suddenly goes off in the distance, the shockwave making my cell shake for a second. The chains wrapped around my wrists ck together loudly. A surge of adrenaline goes through me, because following the shockwave, Kroll¡¯s face pales. We¡¯re in, Christian¡¯s voice echoes in my head. Do you know where you are? In a cell somewhere, I respond. Kroll¡¯s still with me. We¡¯ll find you in the next few minutes, Erebus assures me. If there¡¯s a Belongs ? to N?velDrama.Org. f*****g scratch on you, I¡¯m destroying this entire pack, Damon practically spits out. Kroll whips his phone out of his pocket, casting me a brief re before putting it to his ear. ¡°What the f**k just happened?¡± he demands. The voice on the other end of the line is quiet, but shifter hearing helps me hear just fine. ¡°They¡¯ve invaded, Alpha. They blew up the front door, and now dozens of wolves-most in wolf form-are pouring in.¡± Kroll swears at the update, clutching his phone so hard it cracks. He pockets it, and then closes the space between us with two strides. He fishes a key out of his pocket and unlocks my manacles, hauling me to my feet. Thiss out a breath at the intense pins-and-needles sensations shooting through my arms, clenching and unclenching my fists in an attempt to help blood cirction get back to normal. I don¡¯t have much time to focus on myself, however, because Kroll pulls a gun out of his waistband, points it at my torso, and then starts herding me out of the room. I can¡¯t help myself. I chuckle. Because when my mates see me, a gun pointed at my heart, they¡¯ll go certifiably insane-and will rein hellfire on Kroll and any other motherfucker stupid enough to have aided him in his little mission for power. He roughly leads me out of the cell and walks me down a cement-paved hallway. There are several other cell doors on either side of the hall, some of them open, the others locked. Shouts of pain sound from down the hall, followed by a lot of gunfire. ¡°Stop f*****gughing!¡± Kroll snaps, pushing me and making me stumble slightly before I regain my footing. things really work. Who wouldn¡¯t find that funny?¡± I feel my wolf start to stir inside of me slightly, meaning the effects of whatever Kroll drugged me with is close topletely wearing off. Unfortunately I can¡¯t shift just yet, because chances are Kroll will shoot me. ¡°Anyone normal,¡± he hisses back at me, taking me out of the exit of the dreary hallway and up a flight of stairs. Light filters through the stairwell as the door at the top is thrown open, and Ie face to face with Erebus, Christian, and Damon. All three¡¯s chests are heaving, eyes are feral, and fists are clenched. Honestly, they look ready to tear Kroll apart-which he senses, because he swiftly puts me in a chokehold and holds the gun to my head. Damon, dark eyes glittering, says, ¡°You¡¯re going to die today, Aaron Kroll. How fast and painful your death is relies solely on you.¡± His words are slow, his tone calm and even. But I can feel the anger, the desperation to have me safe emanating from him. ¡°If you let Amira go now, you¡¯ll get a semi-clean death. If you-idiotically-continue holding a gun to her head, I¡¯ll put you through agony that you can¡¯t even begin to imagine. You¡¯ll be brought to the brink of death again and again, only to be healed so the process can be repeated.¡± Kroll doesn¡¯t respond, his gun trembling in his hand, his arm flexing around my neck. Christians eyes flit over me. ¡°You okay, baby?¡± ¡°Yeah,¡± I say. ¡°Just stiff, tired, and thirsty for blood.¡± His lips twitch into a small smile. ¡°Shut up,¡± Kroll hisses in my ear. ¡°Sorry. I should¡¯ve kept in mind that someone with your IQ would struggle interpreting such a situation, so let me help you out. If you let me go right now, I¡¯ll rip your throat out-that¡¯s it. A nice and rtively clean death. If you try to do something stupid, Damon will make good on his threat. And it won¡¯t just be him hurting you-no, you¡¯ll be a guest in our dungeon for a long, long time. You¡¯ll lose count of the amount of times you almost die. You¡¯ll beg for death-relief from the pain-and you¡¯ll never get it.¡± When Kroll doesn¡¯t say anything, Erebus speaks. ¡°You know, growing up, I was thoroughly groomed to be an alpha. Part of that training was learning the art of torture. It really is that, an art form. There are so many ways one can inflict unthinkable pain-but I have to say, a personal favorite has always been skinning someone alive. It¡¯s a long, gory process¡­ but it¡¯s also immensely satisfying. If you don¡¯t let my mate go right now, that¡¯s exactly what you¡¯re in for.¡± I hear a click as Kroll c***s the gun, and a surge of panic goes through me. He¡¯s a cornered dog right now and a cornered dog is incredibly dangerous. He knows he¡¯ll die, and he might just choose to take me down with him. Not willing to let that happen, I spring into action. Stomping on his foot with all my might, I elbow him in the gut, and spin away from him, grabbing the hand holding a gun. He fires, but the bullet sinks harmlessly into the wall-which Im Kroll¡¯s hand against so hard it breaks, and the gun drops to the floor. Then, I shove him back with all my might, sending him falling awkwardly down the stone stairs. Immediately, all three of my mates are on me, herding me out of the stairwell and barking orders for their men to detain Kroll. Erebus¡¯s mouth ms on mine as his armse around me. ¡°Never do that again,¡± he whispers against my lips in between kisses. When he pulls back to let me breathe, I¡¯m pulled into Christians arms. And then Damon¡¯s, who squeezes my ass as he kisses me deeply-just because. ¡°Seriously, Amira,¡± he growls once he pulls back, moving his hands to my waist. ¡°Never. Again.¡± ¡°Yes, because getting drugged and kidnapped was totally intentional,¡± I say drily. After a few more minutes of kisses and hugs, the men reassuring themselves that I¡¯m alive and well, they lead me out of therge packhouse I was held hostage under, and directly into a car. I¡¯m pulled onto Damon¡¯sp, Christian and Erebus nking me on either side. As the car starts to move, I let out a sigh of contentment and lean into Damon, taking Christian and Erebus¡¯s hands into my own. Despite the mess that I was just in, despite the unpleasant, unpredictable road that has gotten me to this moment, I feel truly,pletely content and at peace with myself. There was a time when I hated fate. I thought that the moon goddess must have had something against me to pair me with my mates. But now I know that I was put with them because I can handle them, and they can handle me. Despite our ws and differences, at the end of the day, we truly fit well together. So now, I no longer think about fate with distaste and hatred. Now, I understand that although life will throw hurdles and difficulties at me, I¡¯ll always have three powerful, ruthless men there for me at the end of the day-and nothing could possibly make me happier The Novel will be updated first on this website.
