Slave Sam hands Alpha Tate a whip. I whimper simultaneously as the Lycan does as Alpha Tate whips the Lycan across the chest. I look away, covering my eyes. Tears flood my face as the whip cracks against his skin over and over. Finally, I look up to see blood dribbling down his chest. 'Stop! Please stop!' I shout, horrified at the horrendous sight. Alpha Tate pauses and gives me a deathly glare. ‘It will be your turn next, Slave!’ The Lycan uses the little strength he has to open his eyes and look toward me. As soon as our eyes meet, I feel my body wanting to be closer to his as if I were being sucked through a portal. A sudden sense of desire consumes me. I feel incredibly euphoric. Hot sparks flow through my body as my hands glow, my hair rises, flowing around me, and my eyes are a glimmering silver. Everything disappears around us. All I see is the Lycan and him gazing euphorically back at me. 'MATE!' we say together. As my glow dissipates, the dimness of the cell returns an
Slave I slowly step out from behind Nathan. My cheeks are still rosy-red from seeing Alpha Maximus’s large appendage. I keep eye contact as I slowly walk toward him and gently place my hand in his. There is an instant feeling of love and bliss between us. He rubs his thumb across the back of my hand, sending sparks igniting. Alpha Maximus smiles at me with his gentle brown eyes. My heart flutters and a sense of happiness fills my soul. I know right then that I can trust him and that I’m now his to cherish. 'Let's go,' he smiles. I nod and let him lead me out of the dungeon. It’s so bright outside. I have to use my free hand to cover my eyes from the sun. Alpha Maximus opens the door of the long black car. I have never seen a car like this before. He gestures for me to hop in, but everything is bright and blurry. My eyes are hurting too much. Alpha Maximus notices my eyes are struggling to focus. He places his hands on my hips and guides me into the back seat. He reaches for some tr
I turn and start running back to the car as fast as possible. Shadows whip past me. I slip and fall, rolling a few metres. As I get myself up off the ground, three wolves appear in front of me. They shift into their human form and approach me. 'Come, we will safely return you to Alpha Tate.' The man closest to me says. 'No, I don't want to go back there. I want to stay with Alpha Maximus.’ I tell them. ‘Why would you want to run away with a Lycan of all werewolves for? Alpha Tate is your mate,' the man says. 'They are both my mates. I rejected Alpha Tate!' I tell them. The men look at each other in shock. 'You rejected Alpha Tate to be with that thing...that monster?' he asks. 'Yes! And I would reject Alpha Tate all over again if I could! Now let me pass!' I shout. 'You must be crazy. I don't think you are in the right frame of mind. Come with us to the pack house, and we will get the pack doctor to check you out. Maybe you hit your head or something because you're not thinking c
Alpha Maximus pulls me close. Our lips almost touch as we gaze into each other's eyes with desire. Suddenly, our lips smash together. My fingers glide through his hair, and his hands wrap around my waist. I feel like I'm floating in the air as sparks flow through my veins. Our lips part. I blush and look down, but Alpha Maximus gently takes my chin and pecks me on the lips. He kisses me repeatedly, then playfully down my neck, making me laugh. 'I'm going to shower, and then I'm going to go up the road and see if I can find some fresh clothes and anything else you need. Then, afterwards, we can have some dinner. I’m sure you are starving,’ he says. ‘I am,’ I smile. There’s a knock at the door. I open it to see Nathan is there with a suitcase. 'Hey, Hope, I have Alpha Maximus's suitcase here. I'll bring it in for you,’ he says. He places the suitcase on the bed. 'If you need anything, I'm just one door down, okay?' he offers. ‘Okay, thank you, Nathan,’ 'Before I go, I want to say
As we stroll up the road, all the men in the street stare at me. Alpha Maximus drapes his arm over my shoulder to show them I’m his. I thought it was adorable he did that. How good it is to be free, walking down a street. I hope I will never be forced back to Alpha Tate’s pack house. Nathan orders food from a Chinese restaurant, but I don't want to sit inside. I want to enjoy the fresh air and space all around me. 'Do you think we can eat our food over there?' I ask Alpha Maximus, pointing to a lush picnic area. 'Sure, if that's what you want to do?’ ‘Yes, it is,’ I smile. We have cute little boxes of rice. There are some vegetables like carrots and green peas mixed in as well. Alpha Maximus tries to show me how to use chopsticks, but I’m not very skilled at it, so instead, he feeds me himself using them. 'Oh, this is too cute, Alpha! Watching you feed the Luna like that!' Nathan says with a grin. We both laugh and continue eating. As soon as we finish, Alpha Maximus lays on th
Alpha Maximus I can’t sleep after losing my best friend. My sweet little Hope is screaming in her sleep. As I gently wake her, she burst into tears. 'Nathan didn't do anything wrong! He didn't deserve to die!' she cries. She had just dreamt of the explosion and Nathan dying, a trauma I knew she would forever have. I wish I could have shielded her from seeing it, from being there. I wish I could have prevented Nathan's death, the explosion, all of it. My mind replays when the car window wound down, revealing a gun pointing at the petrol tanker. I knew that the whole place would explode if he shot the tanker. It was a run-or-die situation. Then I grabbed Hope's arm and ran as fast as possible, praying to the Moon Goddess if we could just outrun the explosion in time. Not wanting to think about it, I nuzzle my face into Hope's neck. My tears drip down her neck as I listen to her little heartbeat as she has managed to fall asleep again. Finally, at some point through the night, I, to
We enter the bathroom. Hope turns the shower on as I remove my clothes. She tries hard not to pay any attention to my body but struggles. I smile, step toward her, and lift her shirt and jumper over her head. I kiss her lips while I unclip the back of her bra. I fling them across the bathroom, not caring where they land. My hands caress Hope’s stomach down to her button and zip at the front of her jeans. I undo them and pull them down as I place kisses along her neck and work my way down to her breasts. She grabs my hair. 'Maximus,' she moans. Now kissing along her lower stomach, my fingers latch on either side of her black lace underwear, pulling them down. A Goddess, completely naked and exposed in front of me. I stand up, kissing her lips seductively and carry her into the shower. We explore each other until we moan and give in to the built-up pleasure and release. My seed releases all over her stomach. Hope smiles. She looks more beautiful than ever. I kiss her. We finish was
I inform Hope of the details of the conversation with Alex, explaining our plan. 'No! Maximus!' She cries. 'What if something happens to you and you get hurt or get yourself killed?' she sobs. 'I'm a Lycan, not a werewolf. I have the strength of three Alpha's put together. If I take them on one by one, then there is no way they can defeat me,' I explain. 'What if the pack members also attack?' she asks. 'Well, hopefully, it won't come to that. If I’m careful enough not to be seen, but if it's a small pack, I should be able to take the whole lot on.’ 'But what if it's a large pack?' she asks. 'I’ll be fine,’ I assure her. 'You don't know that!' 'Hope, whatever happens to me doesn't matter. What matters is you surviving and you being safe,' I tell her. Hope storms off into the bathroom and shuts the door behind her. I can hear her crying, and it’s breaking my heart. I walk over to the door and knock, 'Hope, I'm sorry I upset you,' I say softly through the door. She opens the do
