I raised my arms above my head doing a full body stretch. It felt like my entire spine popped which felt strangely good. I rolled over to snuggle up to my personal heater, but his side of the bed was empty. The sheet were still warm which meant he had not been gone long. I sat up looking around. I was sitting on the edge of the bed when the bathroom door opened releasing a cloud of steam into the room. Ruari walked out with a towel wrapped around his hips. I watched a drop of water slide down his chiseled chest. I had the sudden urge to lick that drop up or maybe I just wanted to lick him. My eyes snapped up when I heard him laugh. I am sure my face was red as fuck. <
Navyda and Samaeya were released from the pack hospital about an hour ago. I showed them to rooms in the pack house. Niro told me to put them on the beta floor. I think he wanted Navyda around family which is understandable. We were waiting for them and Niro to come to Ruari’s office. I rolled my eyes when Ruari pulled me into his lap. I should not be surprised. Fine, it is not like I do not like being in his lap. His arms are around me while his massive hands are resting on my thighs. Niro walked in with Navyda and Samaeya behind him. They each took a seat as Ruari shifted behind me.“Navyda I am glad to see you are ok
I smiled as I hung up the phone. Aerian was probably still raging. I had just told her that she needed to dress up because I was taking her out. We had been out on a lunch date but that was it. I hung up before she could ask what she should wear. I linked mother telling her that I was taking Aerian out and asked her to help her get ready. I am sure I will hear it when I get home, but I know once she sees where I am taking her, she will forget about being pissed at me. I went back to work. I had to come into the office. I had a few meetings that had already been rescheduled a few times. It was fine. Uilleam was with me. He still had not talked with Navyda yet. I let out a groan as the last meeting finished. I was leaning back in my chair.
I was the first one to wake up the next morning. Locke was still passed out in our shared head space. I staggered into the bathroom. I was still naked as I looked in the mirror. There on the side of my neck a mark was starting to form. I looked up to see Aerian standing behind me. I could see my mark starting to form on the side of her neck which made me smirk. She was wearing one of my shirts which ended just above her knees. She looked damn good in my shirt. I could feel my cock starting to twitch as I watched her walk up behind me. “What happened?” I asked.
After that embarrassing conversation, this morning I told Sofyia that I needed to get out of the house. Navyda, Samaeya and Cora agreed so we headed into town. I stopped by my shop which made Cora happy. She bought a few pieces. I had text Wallace before we stopped by to not say anything about me being the owner when we were in there. The other girls also bought a few pieces which made me happy. Not because I made money off them. I made sure that they got a discount. No, I was happy that they loved the jewelry. The discussion this morning was really not that bad, but the fact that we were discussing it with my grandfathers was horrifying. I do understand why Ruari wanted to know, and honestly, I was curious as well. It would have been better if we could have talked about that shit in private instead of at fucking breakfast in front of everyone.
“What the hell is going on?” I asked.“Several of our holding facilities have been raided. We are not sure how they were found or who let their locations be known.” Syrreon said.“Have we fucking found her yet?” I hissed.
I stood looking in the door of the hospital room. Bairn, Nhavtan, and Dirk had been found about two miles inside our territory near the Northeast border. I had known Uncle Angus had been stripped of his title and now these three showed up injured on our territory, yes that was too much of a coincidence not to be connected. Dad was on the phone with one of my great uncles that had been brought in from our sister pack in Scottland to watch over the pack until Bairn could take over. He had disappeared a day or so before my great uncle had shown up. He along with the other two were presumed dead, but clearly, they were not. I may not trust Uncle Angus, but I never got a bad feeling from Bairn. I know we did not trust him because of Uncle Angus but mother was adamant that Bairn was not like his father. Right now, we must wait until we wake up until we can find out what the fuck is going on. Thankfully no other women have been kidnapped. Then again with the stor
“WHAT IN THE NAME OF THE GODDESS ARE YOU FUCKING DOING?” I yelled.“THAT WAS NOT MEANT FOR YOU. FUCKING NIVEN WAS SUPOSSED TO BE WALKING THROUGH THE DOOR AT THAT TIME.” Dirk yelled back.“YOU SNIVELLING LITTLE SHIT STAIN! WHEN I CATCH YOU, I AM GOING TO MAKE SURE THAT YOU CANNO
Ruari and Bairn are standing at the end of Sofyia’s bed with their large arms crossed over their equally large chests. I made a slight miscalculation when I teleported us back home. I had meant to end up in Sofyia’s room, but with everything going on we had ended up in the dining room where everyone was. Niro and his mate were not happy to see Sofyia like that. I thought Niro was going to kill someone. I rolled my eyes as I carried Sofyia up to her room. Her mother and I cleaned her up and changed her clothes before placing her in her bed. That is where I am now. I was sitting beside her with the two giants staring at me. I rolled my eyes at them. If they thought, they were being intimidating they were greatly mistaken. I knew they were not going to stop their weird alpha posturing shit until I had told them what had happened.
