14. Make Me
Tamara was glad when they landed. She didn’t know if he was going to be able to get back on a plane after that. At least he hadn’t done anything crazy, like turn into a wolf. A couple times she felt his skin ripple. She’d watched him but he stayed calm on the surface.
Waiting to get off the plane, completely different. If she hadn’t been standing in front of him, she had a feeling that he’d have shoved them out of his way to get off the damn thing. She was glad that they had seats closer to the exit. However he clearly didn’t mind taking hold of her again. She’d been flush against him as they waited in the aisle. He was tense, and she felt a rumble in his chest. She hadn’t protested his hold on her and figured that being more relaxed would take the edge away from him some if he was taking cues from her.

They were silent for the ride to the conference and came to a building with a lot of stairs in the front. Kind of looked like a museum. At least from pictures he saw of what museums looked like. There were well dressed people going up the stairs and he got out narrowing his eyes at the man that opened his door and then the one that did it for Tamara. What were they doing, did they want something? Were they slaves or just servants? He’d seen both and neither looked like they were treated poorly.“Okay, so it will be a decent crowd, you okay with that?” He shrugged, not the answer she was looking for and she noted the way that he eyed up the attendants who were parking cars. This was going to be great, she thought that sarcastically. Though she felt a laugh, looked like she was going to learn how to socialize a wolf.“They don&
Mortal's choice 15. No Coincidences
Tamara finally got up to talk and he watched her intently. Also looked around the room as well. It was clear most seemed interested in what she had to say, and she was a good speaker. Clearly done this a hundred times, he felt edgy sitting here. Really like someone was going to come up and recognize him and try something. Like he was waiting to be forced back into the black nothing or servitude. Which so far he hadn’t seen anything but humans here. Though he did catch the occasional scent of a hybrid or two, but they didn’t seem to know what they were.He glanced over at Josh and he was listening to Tamara speak. Also watching her with a bit more attention than what she had to say. He stared at the man a bit, didn’t like him at all. Tamara ended her speech and a round of applause went up for her. She came back to the table and sat down. She gave a few smiles but looked relieved. He
Mortal's choice 16. To Stop A Wolf
“Tamara!” Someone called and she felt like dropping her shoulders in defeat. She was trying to get out of here. Why did she feel like everyone wanted to talk to her all of a sudden? “Yes?” She said turning and Josh was coming up to her. He was smiling and had a drink in his hand. She glanced at Fenrir. To him she spoke very softly. “Don’t do anything, he isn’t worth it got me?” She was stern in her half whisper. He was facing her with his back to Josh. He didn’t nod or indicate anything, just looked right at her with nothing in his gaze. God she hoped what Josh wanted was quick. She had a feeling that Fenrir wasn’t going to put up with much. He saw the man as a problem, she didn’t doubt he got rid of his problems permanently. Why’d she have to get stuck with a man who had a dark zero to sixty personality? She gav
Mortal's choice 17. Desirable Distraction
“Fenrir.” Tamara said calmly. Okay not what she thought he’d suddenly do. She was staying rather still. Here wasn’t where she wanted this to happen and she’d rather get out of this place. He didn’t respond to her saying his name calmly. He did however hike the skirt of her dress up harshly and she moved slightly as he’d let go of her neck for a moment to do so. At her movement he took hold again and forced her back down to the desk.“Fenrir here isn’t smart. I’m not going anywhere. Just not here.” She said because one, he still looked really dark and she’d like him to not start hurting her. Two it really wasn’t the time or place. He leaned over her and his hand slid up from her neck into her hair gripping it. He moved so his face was close to hers looking at her.Now.
Mortal's choice 18. Bid For A Necklace
Tamara took a slow breath in and then let it out. Her hands were braced on the edge of the table in front of her. She bit her lip rather harshly suppressing the moan she felt. Fenrir gripped her hips having ground into her a final time holding her where she was. Demanding was what he was. Very demanding and if he wanted her he was going to have her. He moved after a minute pulling from her with deliberate slowness before sitting but brought her with so she was sitting on him. A hand bunched in her hair and she was letting her breathing and heartbeat come back down. She enjoyed the contact, but she wished he’d relax for a moment. Then again when you were locked underground for a millennia, and your life sucked before that, she guessed she’d be a bit more needy too. “You know, I am trying to find out about your sister. You could relax and wait. I’m not go
Mortal's choice 19. Sibling Chains
“Hello?” Tamara cautiously spoke as she answered the phone. “Tamara, it’s Max. Just got your message and I was able to get a phone.” She sighed. “Max, I’ve been worried. Are you okay? Where are you?” “I don’t want to say, but I’m being chased. I have Surt after me for sure. He knows that I sent Fenrir somewhere and he wants to know where. He hasn’t caught me yet.” Max said and he sounded tired in her opinion. “Max we have another issue. Hel’s necklace has been stolen, me and Fenrir saw the image and he knew what it was.” She explained a bit more because Max had no idea that there even was a necklace. He was also filled in a bit more about Hel. “Are you okay Tamara? He hasn’t hurt you has he, or done anything?” He a
Mortal's choice 20. Run Max
Max sat up on the ledge of a building. Just a couple stories up and watched the spot in the back courtyard. He really had a bad feeling about this. He watched the man that showed up just a couple minutes ago. He stood just waiting checking his phone. It was pitch black and Max had already picked seven different ways to get out of here if shit went south fast.From where he was a giant tree hid him rather well, and would also allow him a quick way down. He was glad for what he was. It let him have the patience and the wherewithal to sit here and not feel rather cramped just waiting. After what seemed like forever another person showed and this one wasn’t human like the man who showed first. He pulled out a jewelry case, clearly meant to hold a necklace but you couldn’t see through or into it.Nothing was said between the two, just the necklace
Mortal's choice Hel
Max hoisted himself up the embankment and out of the river he’d gone into. At least he didn’t smell like sewer anymore. He hurt, and he just couldn’t run another foot. He was lucky he’d managed to swim. He’d gone the entire day and it was evening again. He’d stopped to eat and devoured a shit ton of food that he stole. He wasn’t proud of it, but he did it because he needed the calories. His better than a half day run took a ton of energy and he’d started to feel weight loss happen to keep him sustained at the rate he was pushing himself.Now he was on the verge of collapse. He’d stolen a phone when he stole food. Got Tamara a text saying he did it, and then dropped the phone in the river after smashing the damn thing to pieces. As far as he could tell he wasn’t being followed and the sun was now getting lower in the sky. He nearly went down when h
