WyattBoo greeted me, tail thumping wildly on the porch, guarding the door in towards her mistress. I gave her a rubdown and she wiggled and squirmed in delight as she scented everywhere my boots had been in the last 2 weeks, before moving onto Beau with equal enthusiasm even though he'd only been gone mere hours. I faced the door and my heart paused, the scent of food wafting to me. My hand on the knob, Beau preoccupied with the dog, gave me a moment for composure. I had missed her too damn much, way too goddess damn much.Nothing could have prepared me for the site of Bri stretching up towards the high cabinet, the cheeks of her bare ass escaping the confines of Beau’s shirt. Nipples pert and evident against the thin fabric. Her hair up in a high messy ponytail exposing that flawless creamy skin of her neck. The skin of which I yearned to scent, to taste, to ferally claim. I swallowed hard, the ice that had laced my veins before in rage now became lava at the sight of her. As her fa
BriHis mouth descended on mine in a frenzy. I was lifted and spun, my back slamming into the post hard. My feet no longer touching the ground, my legs wrapping around his waist, his hands desperately roving as mine tangled into his sandy brown hair.The world and time passed but there was only the feel and taste of him, his devotion and primal need, poured like smoke and liquid fire into my veins. Something that would leave ash and embers behind. Moving forward with him would change me irrevocably, I thirsted for its punishment, its unending embrace. I knew in the depths of my being that walking away from him would be my greatest regret. Not that my love for Beau was any less than my love for Wyatt. There was just something bright and unyielding there, straining between us, and if I ever found it, succumbed to it, I would yank Beau right up into that light with me. It was a fear of mine yielding to that, claiming them. Though, They were mine, in my heart at least, that would have to
WyattI sat with Brianna for a while, the shadow of Beau disappearing down the hall a ways. Fingers trailing through her hair, a heady exhale releasing from her. I soaked in the beauty of her ultimate resignation, of the pain, fear, anger, and betrayal handed to me like a sacrifice. All of her faces were breathtaking, this one however was the most at peace and I wanted to watch her dance with that peace and writhe within that sinful ecstasy with weightless transcendent abandon.I pulled her hair gently at her nape, raising her eyes to mine. She blinked up at me, those swamp green orbs rimmed in churning navy storms, the silver light of that magnificent power she ruled, a halo within them.“Ma Sha, are you sure you want to do this? Because there's no turning back once we get so far,” the grit in my voice was evident even though my words were soft.“Yes,” her voice was soft yet steady and sure.“Stand,” I commanded, and her body rose and I guided her between my knees. She stared back at
Wyatt“So sweet when you're all tied up,” I teased her, and she was unbearably so. The soft, exquisite lines and curves of her stretched out across my bed, her body calling to mine, a strange precarious lure this woman beneath me as I forced myself to exit her orbit to drop my pants, my cock suddenly free to the night air as I returned to her, those beautiful eyes stunned, yet starved at the sight of it's thick length. I hadn't planned on tying her up, but she wasn't complaining and I wouldn't either. Maybe, just maybe she would like the sort of games I liked to play. The shadow in the hall shifted as I teased her lips with mine and she thirstily opened, delving her tongue into my mouth as if I was the air she breathed. Reaching up, I pulled the loop on the belt's knot, setting her free of the bed but not the restraints as I gripped her wrists over her head.“Behave, or you'll get more Beast than you're ready for,” I said, but the heat that sparked in her eyes spoke volumes, very dan
BriThe viper in my path halted me, as the rush of memories of scales and fangs and paralyzing pain swept through me, the blackness began to sweep in as I struggled to breath, before the view of the snake was blocked and the scent of brackish water and cypress brought me back and amber eyes with pulsing gold stared back into mine. I was open to him and he saw everything as I felt myself swept up and moved forward.Moments later the energy of the place began to radiate into me like a malicious force and I looked up to find two pairs of eyes looking down on me.Wyatt's strong arms cradled me as Beau’s found my face.“Sug!” his worried voice called.“I'm here,” my voice rasped. Beau's expression relaxed, as Wyatt's eyes bore into mine, assessing deeper, ready to pull me out of this ‘mission,’ I pushed them away, forcing myself to stand and looked at the vacant house as I steadied myself with a tree.“I'm fine,” I insisted. Wyatt growled and I narrowed my eyes at him.“They,” he went to s
BriBeau had a fire pit built full of dry brush and my bag sitting next to it.“I'm staying with her,” Wyatt said.Beau looked at me. “You’re sure this is a good idea? what if he tries to claim you?” It was a low blow but also a fair one.“We're going to be fine, Beau, do not let those boys leave your sight. The last thing I need is one of them thinking they are bigger than their breeches and wandering out of the wards. It'll be safe there, please,” I begged as we paused on the dock. He chucked the things we brought for him to take back in the boat before he scooped me up in his arms.“Promise me one thing, Sugar,” he begged.“What's that?” I asked, concerned.“Don't jeopardize yourself to fix us baby, cuz I couldn't live with that,” he pleaded.“I got this Beta, please take care of them boys,” I reiterated.“You don't have to ask Sug, always have and always will,” he promised.Then he kissed me, and somehow I felt the burn hotter, his soul burning brighter than before, and deep down
Bri We stayed there near the dock under the tree until the sun began to descend and the damp Bayou air became more chilly. However, wrapped in Wyatts Beast’s arms, I felt the warmth and safety deep within as our energy mingled over our skin and fur.“You know,” I said. “You're less of a monster and more like a big puppy.” He growled softly and I shrugged before pushing the big guy off and standing. He whined.“We have work to do,” I said, and so the breaking of the curse began.BeastThe prize wanted a path cleared so I did so with my claws. She had important work to do and as she followed me mumbling words of magic, she dragged a massive bag of salt around the area of the house in a circle. I felt the swamp answer. The energy was drawn to her and I knew that first full moon that she belonged here with the power we were entrusted to protect. Some lost reincarnated soul that belonged to it. This pack needed her, needed this.Her power rose with the moon on the horizon and as she chann
BeauWe saw the ghostly flames across the horizon. The boys yipped and whined as we paced within the confines of the wards she had placed. In this form I could feel it, some strange beautiful thing linked to the totality of our land. Everything that woman touched was blessed, and I was going to be sure to get my fill of those blessings when I saw her safe and sound, when I finally held her back in my arms.Then the sky rained starlight. They looked like millions of tiny meteors but fell down like ash or snow, floating out of clear skies. I let out a howl and the boys joined in. The beast answered and I don't know if it was the fact that his call solidified their safety or the fact that a presence seemed to lift out of me, but a weight lifted and for the first time in a decade, a light of hope burned free in my heart. She had broken over a hundred years of tragedy in one night. And a decade of pain and remorse had begun to finally heal.I let out another howl in question and the respon
