Theo shakes his head and walks backwards until he reaches my bed and sits his bare ass there. I'm so upset, I don't even focus on his gorgeous, herculean body. "Remember in the beginning when you were scared of me because you thought I just kill people like a maniac? Well, I don't, that's Liam. Liam and his dad, they get Poor Ones into shady business and then they make them disappear and it all somehow falls on me," he explains and looks at me like he's waiting for a strong reaction."Yeah, he told me that. I know," I answer, he frowns at me, "He also told me how they take care of the shady stuff you don't want to deal with and that's why you and your dad are so chummy with them. So, who's worse? The one who does bad things or the one who pretends to be perfect while turning a blind eye to it all?"I know that hurt him because he looks at me in a way I've never seen in him before. Vulnerable, like a little boy. Like when Beau or Knox are in trouble. "You really think I'm bad?""I do
As soon as I open the door, my two brothers fall into the room."What the... what are you guys doing?""Trying to listen, but the soundproof is damn solid," Knox complains as he stands up and looks toward Theo with narrowed eyes, "What's going on here?""Nothing, Knoxy, we’re good,” I smile to make him relax. “Why do your friends get to be naked in the house but I don’t?” Beau complains with a scowl. “They don’t get to be naked, Buba, I smacked both of them already. I’ll go to get clothes for them right now actually," I say and push my two boys out while Theo tries to cover himself. I walk to Beau's room where Nate left some stuff yesterday when he came to babysit. In addition to this hoodie, he left some gray pants and a pair of old man boxers.When I walk out, I can hear everyone talking in the living room so I run over there in fear. Thankfully, they're not fighting... but Liam is wearing a pair of extremely small boxers that serve absolutely no fucking purpose. "Are you wearin
It's been two weeks since Theo took off and left me all alone and abandoned right at the worst time, when I realized I'm in love with him and his wolf said such beautiful things to me. But putting aside how dramatic I've been about how much I miss him, everything is going fine. Violet and Nate have been taking turns teaching me how to drive Theo's car and although at first it was extremely difficult to control a sports car, now at least I can drive to the boys' school and back. Every time I’m around old Hughmount and I get out of the car, people who know me are completely confused, like right now. Things have changed quite a bit for me, so I get it. I'm driving this car that's worth more than the whole school and wearing nice, new clothes for the first time in five years. "Hey, girl... what's been going on with you lately?" Amanda asks while we (the moms) are standing outside of the classroom, waiting for the classes to end. "Yeah, you look great and we hardly ever see you around
{ Theodore }I've been in Sicily for a month and a half and things have not been good. Not at all. Isabella started having worse pregnancy symptoms since we've been here and she won't let me help her. She won't even let me fucking touch her, literally. Most of this month has been spent with me trying to at least have a conversation to pass the fucking time and help her a little when she's feeling bad, but she hasn't been receptive to anything to do with me. In fact, anyone would think she’s repulsed every time she looks at me. That has been both good and a pain in my ass because she’s just as against to being intimate as I am, but there are times where I have had to help her and she literally growls at me to leave her alone. All day today I've done nothing but sit on my ass while Isabella pukes, moans and cries. And I'm close to losing my damn mind. "We should just go back home," I dare to say as I sit on the bathroom floor, looking at her. Isabella is inside the jacuzzi with bub
The day after the fight with Isabella, I don't even leave my new room except twice to get something to eat. Fortunately, I don't see her at all and I think that's better for both of us. I don't call Nukea either, because I wouldn't know what to say to her yet. I decide to let her stay mad another day while I fix the situation. It's only three and a half months until my presentation as Alpha of the pack. Isabella wants us to be married by then, she wants a giant wedding with most of the pack in attendance (except the Poor Ones of course) but I'm not going to let that happen. I'm not going to just kowtow to her like an idiot. So, I put my plan into motion. "Hello, son... everything okay?" my father asks when he answers my call. "Not really. I want to know how damaging it would be for us if I don’t marry Isabella," I say bluntly. My father immediately groans, "And, surprisingly, it has nothing to do with my mate and everything to do with Isabella.""Goodness gracious, how hard can i
I'm helping my brothers get ready for their first ever formal event. I got both of them little tuxedos and they look extremely cute. Once I'm done with them, I walk over to take one last look in the mirror to make sure nothing is out of place. I'm wearing a gorgeous lilac dress, it doesn’t show any cleavage and it even has some lace details that make it look innocent. My hair is done in a sleek high ponytail and I honestly think I got the makeup just right to look classy instead of whorish. Liam will be proud of me. Violet texts me that they're here so I slip on my high heels and I head out with my brothers to get in the car with Violet and Nate."Are you guys nervous?" I ask, they both say yes. This will be our first Greyhound event and we don't know how to act or what to expect, but we’re excited. Two days ago when Robert came to my house we talked for a while. He apologized to me for his behavior at that dinner when he stormed off and then he personally invited me to this event
{ Theodore }I'm nervous because a lot could go wrong, but I already put everything into motion and I just have to get ready to follow through. Today I decided to pretend everything is fine and since Isabella was feeling a little better, I convinced her to go to dinner with me. We have to be together when we hear the news.My phone starts vibrating on the table first, but I just silence it without seeing who it is and continue eating quietly with Isabella. When her phone rings a few seconds later, my heart starts pumping. "Hi, Daddy," she answers the call but grimaces when her father starts yelling, asking for me, "What? Yeah, he's here... my dad wants to talk to you.""Huh?" I ask, making a confused face. I grab the phone, "Yes, sir? What is it?”"You have to get back to the pack immediately!" He exclaims. Isabella hears perfectly and her eyes get wide, "Something happened... someone... someone took your father. They came into the party today and kidnapped him, they took Jamie too
{ Nukea }I swore to myself that I would be strong for at least a day. But, apparently, I can't be strong for even a minute because as soon as Theo has me in his arms and I can kiss his lips again, I get hit by an unbearable need to never detach myself from him again. I've never felt anything so intense before, I could swear I'm high, I even feel like his scent is more potent than usual, he just smells so perfect and masculine.I can't stop myself."Nu," Theo groans when my hips start to move uncontrollably over his erection, he squeezes his hands on my ass as a warning, "Nu... what about the kids? They might see.”"They're with your aunt," I tell him, Theo makes a confused sound, but I ignore him and don't let him speak because I start sucking on his bottom lip and I slip my hands under his shirt to touch his naked chest. I tug on his shirt until Theo understands what I want and lifts his arms so I can take it off."Does this mean I can touch you again?" he asks, his voice deep and
