The Alpha's Regret Chapter 12
NathanEarly starts are nothing new to me, but I’m not sure I got any sleep at all. Eventually, I give up tossing and turning and roll out of bed. My problems sleeping might have something to do with Maya starting work today, or maybe it’s the ache in my groin from the permanent hard-on I’ve had since getting into bed. I can’t bring myself to change the sheets. Her scent still lingers, and it calms my wolf while torturing my body at the same time.She should be in my bed with me. Her absence is unnatural. But I'm quietly confident we'll get there, eventually.Pottering around my kitchen, making a breakfast that is completely unappealing, and drinking coffee that just doesn't taste right, I contemplate the days and potentially weeks ahead. She can feel the bond. I know it. It's there to see in her every reaction to me. I’ve witnessed how Hayley and Leah were around my brothers, even before they knew about shifters and fated mates.The sneaky glances, the scent of lust in the air, the u
The Alpha's Regret Chapter 13
Nathan “Alpha Reynolds took a shine to Marie, and they went on a few dates. They weren’t fated mates, but, as your mother likes to remind me, he was a good-looking man. And he was the alpha of what was then a great pack, known for their warrior skills. Her father was happy for her to meet up with him and see where it went.” Dad’s jaw is clenched. There are veins bulging out of his forehead and neck, and he’s grinding his teeth. Loudly. Even after all this time, he clearly struggles with the idea of her entertaining anyone other than him. I’d tease him, except now I understand it completely. I would be exactly the same. Dad shifts in his chair, but it’s not the seat that’s making him uncomfortable. “But then we met and from the moment we saw each other, the moment I caught her scent… that was it. She was so beautiful.” He sighs dreamily, wearing the same goofy grin he gets whenever he sees her. I can’t help but smile along with him, now that I know that feeling. “It was magical, and

MayaWhile I put on my mascara, I try to convince myself that I would make this effort no matter who I was going to work for. It’s my first day on the job. Of course, I want to look nice and make a good impression. As I slip my feet into a pair of heels and stand to smooth my skirt down over my hips, I can’t even look myself in the eye. Complete lies.Slipping a purse over my shoulder, I head downstairs, a steady thrum of anxiety buzzing through my veins. I have no idea what I’ve let myself in for.Kim glances up from the papers she’s reading as I walk into his office, knocking lightly on the door even though it’s wide open already. Her eyes narrow slightly in confusion before she blinks rapidly a few times and smiles at me.“Maya! Are you looking for Hayley’s office?”Oh goddess, this is embarrassing. I have no idea how much everyone knows about what went on the night of the party. Wolf hearing makes most things hard to hide.“Em, no. Rex said that Hayley’s friend is going to work fo

NathanBy the end of the day, I’m exhausted. Being this close to her and not being able to touch her is agony. I don’t know where we are in terms of us, so I’m playing it safe. There have been heated looks, and awkward moments, and my aching cock has been rock-hard all day. Her scent. Just her intoxicating scent is enough to have me on the verge of falling to my knees and begging her to let me kiss her. To taste her. I want to bury my face in her neck and breathe her in deep. I want to yank that tight little skirt up and thrust my hand between her legs, or maybe my face, until she cries out and I’m drenched in her juices. FUCK.She smiles sweetly at me as she picks up her purse from the floor and I try to look as though this isn’t killing me.“Thanks for today. I’ve learned a lot.”I wave her thanks away with a small shake of my head.“It’ll be a breeze to you. And it’s been great having someone here to help.”Maya frowns at me, her smile tightening a little at the edge as she straig

MayaNathan thrashes in Rex’s grip, his wolf the one in control now, and I pray to the moon goddess that he doesn’t shift. Ross looks between Nathan and me. The look of disbelief on my face and the fact that my feet seem to be rooted to the spot does nothing to convince him that Nathan is telling the truth, so he stretches out a hand toward me, urging me to come to him and away from the raging alpha beside me.I’m not stupid. I know that going to Ross would be like throwing fuel on the fire but I have no idea what to do. The eyes of the small group gathered outside the packhouse are all on me. I have the power to calm the situation but I feel like stepping in makes a declaration that we are mates.And then I’m trapped.Nathan sees Ross reach for me and growls even louder but Ross won’t be deterred from what he sees as defending me, and our pack are fierce warriors. He won’t hesitate to fight Nathan if he feels he’s a threat to his alpha’s sister. It’s his sworn duty. Nathan’s teeth ar
The Alpha's Regret Chapter 17
NathanLeading Maya to a quiet corner of the living area, I find us a cosy place to sit before leaving her to get drinks. The house is quiet but the few people hanging out and playing pool do a terrible job of pretending they don’t know what’s just happened outside. If they didn’t hear the ruckus themselves, no doubt the rumour that I’ve found my mate is already bouncing around the pack mind links. Danny nods and gives me a knowing little smirk, the only person brave enough to acknowledge the elephant in the room.“Everyone’s staring,” Maya whispers as I lower myself onto the couch beside her and wrap a protective arm around her shoulders. My thumb traces circles on her shoulder as I hand her a beer and lean back into the plush cushions. Now that she’s back by my side, and she has accepted that we’re fated mates, my wolf is much more content. All the tension from the confrontation earlier leaves my body, and I’m suddenly exhausted.“Those girls are talking about us. About you.”I perk
The Alpha's Regret Chapter 18
NathanMaya’s soft moan has my cock twitching in response. When an answer doesn’t follow immediately, I decide it’s better to seek forgiveness than ask permission. I drop to my knee on the spot and move the leg that was around my hip to over my shoulder. Her dress rides up and I can see her lace panties, the only thing separating me from heaven.The scent of her arousal is incredible, and it makes my head spin. An extended claw takes care of her tiny white underwear and I shove them into my back pocket as I gaze at her perfectly plump pink folds. All fucking mine.“So pretty.” I rest my forehead against her thigh, eyes closed, as I take a second to compose myself. Her hands sinking into my hair bring me back to the moment, and I meet her heated gaze. We never break eye contact as I lean forward slowly and lick her sweet pussy from her tight entrance all the way up and over her sensitive clit. Her grip on my hair gets tighter, and she struggles to stay composed as I dive in, lapping an
The Alpha's Regret Chapter 19
MayaDean is furious as we walk in silence toward the alpha’s office. Jonathan Jones stands in the doorway, looking like we’re all coming for a friendly chat and not one bit like an angry alpha is marching in his direction, determined to make someone’s life difficult. Except Dean’s not mad. He’s scared.I cling to Nathan’s hand and give it a reassuring squeeze, although I feel as though I need it more than Nathan does. He looks unfazed despite the red mark on his jaw that has to hurt.“Alpha Reynolds,” Johnathan calls out in greeting, extending a hand to my brother and forcing him to engage in pleasantries before he can launch into the rant we all know is coming.“Alpha Jones, good to see you again.”I can’t help but smile at my brother’s displeasure at having to play nice. In every other way, he is an amazing alpha, but he doesn’t trust anyone. Too many years spent listening to the hatred my father constantly spewed out about other packs are etched in his mind. Logically, he knows ou
