The Alpha's Obsession 40 - Ladyballs
~Gemma~ Tyson made coffee while we three ladies sat at the kitchen island. I had to admit, the Chase boys were real handy in the kitchen. Damon sent me a text, wishing me and Irina a pleasant visit and promising to contact me soon. I sent him a heart eyes and a kissy-face emoji. Irina took my phone and set it on the counter. “Gemma, he did wrong tonight. Let that hot-headed vamp sweat it out for at least a day.” “You’re right.” I pouted. “But I don’t have to like it.” Alpha Devlin strolled in wearing black jeans and a white tee. His hair had been combed. He caught me ogling him and he smirked. Dammit. “Now who the fuck is hungry?” He asked. We all raised our hands, including Tyson. “Hey Ty!” I grabbed the corner of his shirt as he poured me coffee. “One lump or two?” He asked cheekily as he grabbed the container of my stevia sweetener. I ran a finger down his arm. “I prefer two. But then you know that, right?” I winked at him. “Christ, Gemma.” He swallowed, his Adam’
The Alpha's Obsession 41 - Fairytale
~Gemma~ Shit! He looked pissed. Like really pissed. “Dev.” His rage-filled roar reverberated in the office. “Do not call me that!” I risked it. My hand rested on his chest. “Why did you ask if you didn’t want to hear the truth?” “I knew the goddamn truth. I saw the way you two stared at each other, the way you touched. I had to hear you say it. I had to know what he said was the truth and not fucking bragging.” He pulled at his hair. “How did this happen?” It felt like a rhetorical question. I attempted anyway. “It just happened organically. No magic, no fucking predestined bullshit. It happened along the way, amidst all our interactions, sharing, caring, and plenty of fighting. One day I just knew.” He stared at me, eyes roaming over my face. The crushing weight of his pain crept over me. I thought he would punish me by letting me wallow in his hurt. Instead, he wiped away my tears with his thumbs before pulling me into his embrace. I hated my tears. I hated the way he held
The Alpha's Obsession 42 - Juvenile Tactics
~Gemma~ So much for my big, bad ladyballs. I hid at home for the next week, licking my wounds and coming up with a game plan for the rest of my life. ‘Gemma?’ Yes, I had the willpower to disobey the alpha. His voice held no special pull over me. I gave him a whole lot of silence. ‘Very mature.’ ‘Don't box in my personality with your expectations of me! It's my damn day off! What do you want?’ ‘Day off? It's Wednesday.’ I sighed. ‘For cripe's sake! We moved to a 9/80 work schedule. Today is my day. Try again tomorrow. Thank you.’ I shut our link down. No emergency that I could detect. He would have said right away. Wouldn’t he? Today was my day to dedicate to Fat Kitty. I promised him some quality. We ate snacks and decided to binge watched all the Hobbit movies. I just started the second movie when a loud thump came from my balcony. Shit! Fat Kitty skittered away to his safe room. I unlocked the sliding door. “Alpha Devlin? What are you doing here?” He breezed into my home li
The Alpha's Obsession 43 - Gamma Girl
~Gemma~ Our Gamma was a fucking badass bitch. We did our pre-game dance, which included an embarassing amount of twerking and hand movement. We ignored the snickers and laughs directed our way. I didn’t hug her or get mushy. Instead, I encouraged her. “You go out there and kick some wannabe ass! Show us all why you are the mothereffing Gamma! Go get this done so we can get drunk later tonight!” I swatted her ass. “Claws out. Balls out, baby!” “You got it, shorty!” Sammie cracked her knuckles and then her neck. She wore a black sports bra and some fitted, knee length shorts. Earlier, I braided her hair and helped her with makeup, mainly lipstick and mascara. Let’s be honest. The girl needed no adornments. We gathered outside in a cleared area in the woods. The snake pit, we called it. Sammie made her way to the ring where Tim already waited. Fucker. I fidgeted, pulled at the skirt of my dress. It upset me that Sammie had to go through this more often than I liked. It was hard to
The Alpha's Obsession 44 - Wolf Games
~Gemma~ Like a chickenshit coward, Blake thrust me away from him. I would have fallen if Alpha Devlin had not caught me. With a blur of movement, he was just there, uprighting me on my feet. Adrenaline still coursed through my body. Alpha Devlin looked me over quickly, a finger trailing along my collarbone. I stared at the ground, unwilling to share more of my feelings than necessary. “Alpha Devlin, she came onto me. I was just about to refuse her…” Blake suddenly shut up, probably from the expression on the alpha’s face. Tyson punched him square in the nose. Blood spurted, spewing out in impressive arcs. Sometimes the movies get the gory scenes right. “Try again, fucker! Shall I remind you we are able to sense Gemma’s emotions? What she felt was not consensual.” Blake covered his face, tried to talk but it sounded garbled and confused. “Don’t bother to talk, lying bastard. We saw the entire interaction.” Tyson got close enough to Blake to shoulder him hard. Damn these wolf ga
The Alpha's Obsession 45 - Best Case Scenario
~Gemma~ We sat on his bed. It was that or the floor. I wrinkled my nose. It smelled like guy in here. “Sorry. I wasn’t expecting company.” He apologized. “Whatever. So this is simple. We will share truths until the debt is satisfied.” I squared my shoulders. “Ask your question.” He shrugged. “ Are you and Alpha Devlin dating?” “No.” I answered, frowning. “My turn. Why do you want to be Gamma?” He rubbed his face. “I’m tired of being worthless. Being Gamma will ensure my importance within the pack. A female, such as Sammie, should be an easy target. Unfortunately, that wolf is fierce.” I frowned again. “You realize that line of thinking is all kinds of messed up?” “Yeah. You helped me realize that. Next question. Do you actually think you are the lowest member of the pack?” I nodded. “Without the goddess, I would have little of value to offer the pack. I couldn’t heal anyone. I cannot shift into wolf to help defend the pack. I hold no real position. Nobody can ever challenge m
The Alpha's Obsession 46 - Trophy Wife
~Gemma~ Alpha Devlin held the meeting in our formal dining hall due to the larger crowd. There were ten members of the Twisted Pines Pack alone, including their alpha, his daughter, and son. Alpha Devlin informed me his mate passed away over a decade ago. I was not in the habit of entering a meeting plastered to Alpha Devlin’s side. I tried to pull away, to enter the room on my own terms, but he held onto my hand. His fingers latched on in an unrelenting grip. ‘Dammit! Let me go! I'm not some trophy wife for you to put on display!’ I mentally fussed at him. ‘No? You sure harp like a wife.’ He smirked at me. Ugh! ‘You are so frustrating!’ I pasted a smile on my face as we walked hand in hand into the dining room. “Alpha Killian, welcome to our home.” Alpha Devlin greeted the visiting alpha warmly. “Alpha Killian, welcome. Kieran and Kylie, we welcome you.” I nodded in greeting. “Beta Helen, it’s very nice to meet you as well.” I smiled at her. I was glad I didn’t have to explai
The Alpha's Obsession 47 - Unfolding Tragedy
~Gemma~ Someone tickled my foot. “Go the fuck away!” I buried deeper under my comforter. A heavy sigh sounded. “I thought you wanted to party with your new friends?” Tyson asked reasonably. I hated that. Wait! “Did you say party?” I sat up in bed, fully alert. Tyson leaned against my dresser in jeans and no shirt. He must have gone for a run. “What’s with that creepy smile, baby bro?” He cringed when I called him that. WTF? Alpha Devlin entered my room. “What the fuck, Gems? Why are you naked?” “What?” I shrieked, looking down at my naked chest. I covered myself with the comforter, searching my bed for any article of clothing. Nothing! “This is how Tyson put me to bed! I never sleep naked!” Alpha Devlin smacked Tyson upside the head. “I trust you with her!” “No! I remember now. Tyson behaved himself. All he did was unzip me. I asked him for help with my bra and he refused.” I confessed. “Just remember! I am an adult! I can take care of myself without a handler.” I insiste
