"Everyone understands. We're newly mated. It's expected. He rubbed her back, his hand traveling lower and lower with each stroke towards the tempting curve of her ass. She pressed her face harder against his chest, still reliving the embarrassment. "Now, I meant what I said. We need a shower. Your things are already upstairs. Let's go get cleaned up, and then you really can check and see how your mother's doing. I know you won't be able to relax until you make sure she'd alright." Dani lay back on his bed, freshly showered and dressed, listening to the water still running as Luca took a shower of his own. Closing her eyes she imagined him, naked, the water from all those luxurious high powered shower heads running over his body. And that bathroom, she shook her head at the thought. It might be the best thing about the entire house.The interior room was made with what appeared to be smooth natural stone, which had felt cool under her feet as she walked into the warm room. There was

Dani was sitting on one of the stools at his kitchen counter, eating her third piece of bacon pizza and swinging her legs slightly as Luca poured her her second glass of wine. "So do you feel comfortable talking about her?" Luca asked the question as he set the glass down next to her. "She seems so different today, from yesterday. And I just want to be able to help you with her, because it seems like you have had so much responsibility in your life and as Alpha here I can delegate a lot of that so that she can have the professional help that she needs to get better." He watched Dani carefully, hoping that he hadn't overstepped, but she shrugged, and ran her finger over the rim of her wine glass as she began to chew on her bottom lip, signalling to her mate that she was nervous again. "If she doesn't drink and if she takes her meds it's not that bad. Who knows what she'd actually be like if she could do it for more than two weeks straight. She promises too but she's never been able

She was sitting on the end of the bed, looking down, her legs swinging slightly, her feet not reaching the floor. Luca couldn't help but think that she looked so small and innocent sitting there, avoiding his eyes. Her hair was a dark, tousled cloud around her face, and her chocolate colored eyes looked close to tears.He strode across the room and gathered her in his arms, carrying her to the head of the bed and sliding with her under the covers. She felt so small and delicate next to him, and so very cold for a werewolf. Dani shivered slightly as he pulled the covers tightly around both of them, feeling her burrow her face into his neck, her body pressing tightly against his."I don't mean to seduce you and reject you." her voice sounded very small and childlike and he felt tears against his neck. "It's just that when we're near each other all I can think about is how much I want to feel you inside of me. It's like my entire body is on fire and you're the only thing that can put i

"A pour over coffee maker. Is it a maker? Carafe? I'm not even really sure what it's called. But yeah, this is how Alpha West makes his coffee. When he drinks coffee. Which I cantell you isn't really all that often.""I don't even know how we're mates." Dani shook her head and pulled one of the stools from the counter over next to the sink. She turned the water on as hot as it would go at the sink while Teo retreated to the other bar stool at the counter."Aren't you supposed to boil that or something first?" He asked, his eyebrows raised.Dani made a noise that sounded suspiciously like a snort."Supposed to. Whatever. Desperate times call for desperate measures. I need coffee. We're going to buy a coffee maker today. This town better sell one because I don't have time for Amazon to ship one out here.""I can't wait that long and who knows how long Prime takes to get things over these mountains to the middle of freaking nowhere." She held her hand up when he looked like he was

"What the fuck, Lyra? You gave up your mate?" Alpha Luca West had slipped out of his house and left for the pack house early that morning, intent on making sure this nonsense with the Bear Moon Pack was settled the very next day. He wasn't going to let his little mate be threatened, even by the man who was supposedly his greatest ally. "I didn't feel anything for him." She said the words in an odd flat tone, without looking up at him, her eyes focused on her nails. "Bullshit Lyra. That's not how it works. You must have felt like you were splitting your soul in two. And for what, power?" They were sitting alone in his office inside the packhouse, where Lyra had apparently returned to her spacious room rather than returning home to her pack as she had been ordered while still on the plane. "It's about more than just power, Luca." Her eyes flashed with rage as she looked up at him, her canines beginning to peek over the edges of her crimson lips. "Do you know what he was? He wasn't

"I was," he said after a moment. "It's been a very busy morning, with some upsetting news that I definitely don't want to think about now that my day has gotten significantly better." Picking her up easily he respositioned her so that she was straddling him, her chest now directly in his line of sight. Her breasts strained against the thin blue cotton of her shirt as his hands wrapped around her waist, pressing her down so that she was grinding against the hardness of his cock.Goddess, he wasn't going to be able to resist her for much longer. And it didn't seem that she wanted him to. Dani bent forward grabbed the bottom edge of her shirt, lifting it up over her head, so that she was only wearing a white lace bra, that left absolutely nothing to the imagination, dropping it on the floor before crashing her lips against his, her arms wrapped around his neck. She pressed her body hard against him, the sweet intoxicating scent of her desire impossible to ignore.Her lips parted, and s

Dani had walked into the boutique, which Stella had informed her was named Blush Bella by the proprietor Janice some thirty years earlier after a trip to Paris, wearing her short shorts, a t-shirt and her same well worn sandals that were on the verge of falling apart. "Not exactly the look we expect for our future Luna." Stella said in an exceedingly prim tone, that Dani simply couldn't take seriously both because of the expression on Stella's face, and also because what Stella was wearing today looked nothing like what she'd been wearing while she was out with her mother.The beautiful young woman had on black cargo pants that were tucked into her enormous black combat boots. The shiny boots looked enormous on her slight frame. On top she wore a heather grey tank top that exposed quite a bit of her toned midriff and chest, with a comfortable light grey shrug that just covered her shoulders and obviously toned arms. Around her neck, dangling on a gold chain just below the line of h

"Alpha West?" There was a knock on the meeting room door and Luca sat back in his chair, pushing his hand roughly through his hair as he stared down at the map."Who the Hell is that?" He muttered the words to himself.One of the younger pack warriors had taken over watching Lyra's door and now Lars was back by his side. "Can you find out how long until the jet arrives back here with Alpha Vos and his contingent. I want to be there to meet them at the air strip.""They're still a few hours out." Lars replied immediately."How many are they bringing?." Luca asked, turning towards the window, and staring off into the forest again."Ten. And before you ask, yes his third in command is with the group. He's her childhood friend and Vos said he wasn't going to leave him behind. If you want Vos' help Kent is part of the package.""Ridiculous." Luca growled the words."Sir?" The door had opened and Teo had been standing frozen in the doorway, waiting for a chance to speak. As Luca's
