They were under the protection of the Lycanthrope and as long as they did not over populate there would be no interference from any Immortals. Jack agreed to work with Pack to rebuild after the war, and a helicopter was arranged to be at his disposal whenever Sirius needed him. He was stood now watching the young human girl with the Pack Doctor,‘I’m really not happy about these tests’The Doctor told him,‘We know she’s clever, she survived without help for months and we believe the only reason she was caught was that group got lucky. If she had not been caught by them I don’t think we would have ever have caught her’Jack lifted his eyebrow,‘That’s a hell of a statement Doc’The Doctor looked at him,‘She’s far to good for the breeding program, far to clever, there’s something I cannot put my finger on, maybe these tests will help, I don’t know. All I am saying is we should not underestimate her.’Atalanta had been incarcerated in the room for almost two weeks and she was going mad
He grunted and headed out to the servants quarters, he stopped and sniffed, his eyes glowing as he walked into their recreation room. He treated his humans far better than most, they had their own little cottages, were allowed to live in family groups for the most part as long as they did as they were told. He stood at the door and was met by a sea of anxious eyes‘Alpha’They quickly bowed their heads submissively and their leader came forward keeping his head down,‘What can we do for you Alpha?’The man asked but he knew, they all knew, the only reason any of the Wolves came to this room was for one thing only and this was the mighty Lycanthrope.Sirius let his gaze wander around the females, his eyes glowed as his Wolf came to the surface,‘About fucking time’It growled at him angry at being deprived of its favourite past time for so long, it panted and rasped,‘Young, untouched and more than one’Sirius turned to the human male,‘The new ones’He commanded and the male bowed his
He grinned but Jack was not amused,‘I am not a traitor’He snapped and the Doctor held up his hands,‘Wow, she really got to you didn’t she?’Jack walked back into the viewing room and was even more shocked at what he saw, Atalanta was curled on the bed soft sobs making her shoulders shake. Not knowing she was being watched Atalanta was bereft,‘How could another human betray his kind like that?’She cried openly, it had felt so good to run into his arms and have him hold her, he had felt solid and strong like her Father, fresh pain hit her and the sobs grew louder. She did not want to live anymore, she had nothing left jumping from the bed she headed for the window,‘Fuck no’Jack yelled as she yanked it open and before any of them could reach her she climbed out balancing on the edge,‘Atalanta no please don’t do this’He tried to placate her,‘Please come back inside, talk to me’‘Why? I have nothing to say to you, why would I want to talk to a fucking traitor?’She wobbled and he
Her eyes snapped open and in her head she screamed in horror, the animal’s panicked roar echoed everywhere, looking back at her Atalanta met her lioness for the first time. A huge stunningly beautiful golden lioness with incredible molten gold eyes watched her impassively,‘My name is Kiara, I am sorry I introduced myself so suddenly. I did not mean to scare you I only want to protect you. I am here now Atalanta we are one.’Strangely Atalanta felt her heartbeat returning to normal and the fear leave her,‘I am a Lioness?’She whispered and Kiara chuckled,‘You are the Queen of the beasts Atalanta. A powerful Alpha Shifter and those silly Wolves will no longer be a problem for you.’She lifted her head swiveling her ears and scenting the wind, everything had changed, she could see, hear, and smell things on a different level, she was the Apex Alpha predator now the highest link in the food chain.‘How is this possible Kiara, my parents were human?’She asked and the Lioness shook her
Her defiant gaze held his and Kiara growled softly,‘Tread carefully Atalanta, he is definitely our Mate’She had no idea what that meant but she did know he was incredibly beautiful for a male, with his long pale blond hair and stunning deep blue eyes. Her body responded to his and she knew he felt the same when those brilliant eyes locked with hers darkening hungrily,‘You know who I am, you probably know more than me. I had no idea about this but I’m sure as hell going to find out.’Sirius nodded,‘You may have access to our computers’Atalanta shook her head, her thick golden hair tumbling around her shoulders in a curtain that fell past her slender hips, desire pulsed through him again. He wanted to run his fingers through that hair, grab it tightly, and hold her still as he fucked her plump eager mouth. He blinked and mentally shook himself,‘Down Canis, bad Wolf, keep your eyes on the task’Canis growled deeply,‘Stop ignoring it Sirius, she is our Mate’The thought had him ree
Other creatures had settled there too and she thought she saw fish in the water, the chlorinated water in it must have evaporated in the long hot summer they had last year and been replaced by rainwater. Moving on silent pads she leaped up the stairs heading for the Penthouse, it was surprisingly untouched, she shifted back into her human form and pulled on the bathrobe hanging in the bathroom. She searched the room and found the mini-bar untouched and to her delight an unopened bottle of champagne. The electricity was still running so the fridge had remained cold and she opened it quickly grinning as some of it sprayed over her, she drank greedily from the bottle. It was cool, crisp, and delicious and she giggled when she hiccuped and the bubbles went up her nose. Perching on the bed she leaned against the headboard and finished the bottle of course it went straight to her head. She wasn’t a drinker, she had an empty stomach and her metabolism was much quicker now she was a lioness.
Sirius?’‘I’m here baby’He scooped her up and ran towards the Pack House in her confusion she had almost run straight to it. He strode into the hospital,‘Where’s Carter?’He commanded over the noise of the A & E department and the white-coated Doctor came running,‘Alpha?’He questioned as he placed the beautiful young woman on the bed,‘I marked her but she did not understand what I was doing. Yes, I know I should have explained it to her but I did not know she did not know. I think she is reacting to my serum’At that point Atalanta began convulsing her body arching on the bed and the Doctor jumped into action, within ten minutes he had the antidote to the serum dripping into her arm. He gave her a shot of antibiotics just to be careful and bathed and bandaged the wound just to be sure. She was already beginning to heal her body finally understanding what it needed to do. Bringing her around slowly she lay still for a few minutes blinking up at him,‘What happened?’She eventually
‘I am not interested in your stupid Pack laws, I am not a Wolf. Nor am I a member of your Pack, you have no jurisdiction over me. I am a Lioness if you try to stop me, if anyone tries to stop me I will kill them’He could see the Lioness was close, Atalanta was fighting to keep herself from shifting and she lifted her head meeting his eyes,‘What do you need a plane for?’He was the one who backed down even though it angered his Wolf,‘Take Mate, Claim her now’It growled at him but he ignored it,‘I am going home’She announced and his Wolf almost took over,‘Mate stays’It snapped but again he held it in check,‘This is your home now, you are my Mate, my Luna, your place is here by my side ruling the Shifters and Immortals’A low snarl escaped her lips,‘I am going home, I have too many unanswered questions that I won’t get answered staying here’She dismissed him and walked past,‘Where are they?’He made a snap decision,‘Very well, come with me. I’ll go with you.’She wanted to p
