Troy’s POV It’s been a week since dad dropped a bomb shell on me and I have been working with my sister Viola to make this ‘grand ball’ perfect for Octavia’s birthday next weekend, since we don’t know much about her it has made it hard to decide on decorations so we ended up going with a masquerade theme, so far the plans look great I just hope we can pull it off and not piss off Alpha Lucian. I decide to go for a run and let my wolf out before Octavia arrives tomorrow. I went to my usual spot by the lake, it is so beautiful and peaceful here looking out at the huge lake with the ducks floating around, big, tall trees all the way around with a small clearing on either side there is even a swing rope off to one side of the lake and a bed of wildflowers by my mother’s tomb stone. It’s no wonder she used to bring us here as kids it’s impossible to be in a bad mood while looking out at the tranquillity of this place. I sit here looking at my mothe

Troy’s POV I look over at my clock its five am, with a sigh I get up and go for a run to clear my head. I didn’t get much sleep last night, after leaving dad at the bar with Grace, Jax let it slip that his Mate Harper is best friends with Octavia, so when we got back to the packhouse I followed him to the Beta suite to ask Harper about my Luna to be. Of course, she wouldn’t tell me much only that she has a wild side and has been through hell this past year, although she did say 'you couldn’t miss her in a crowd'. Whatever that means. After my run I get cleaned up and have breakfast. Looking at the time it is almost eight am dad should be in his office by now, so I go there to ask him how his night went with Grace in the hopes of distracting my own troubled thoughts. “Morning dad, don’t you look very chipper today” I say with a wink. “I am son, I want to thank you for convincing me to come to the bar last night. I haven’t been this happy in a very long time.” “I’m glad I could hel

Octavia’s POV Running back to the packhouse with Harper and Jaxson I mentally scold myself for what I did to Troy, I didn’t mean to jump his bones but after reading his mind and hearing his lustful thoughts about my body I couldn’t help myself. Being in his big strong arms and feeling his huge hard cock pressing against me, Piper was begging me to have him take us right then and there, and when he said he wanted to take it slow I was disappointed thinking he didn’t want me so I had to walk away before I lost control, my emotions were all over the place I didn’t want him to think I was crazy. Then when he walked up to me, I could see every muscle in his body twitch with each slow step towards me, I was also acutely aware that the intoxicating scent I smelled earlier was indeed coming from him. A burning desire started to form in the pit of my stomach, and I knew I had to taste him. I could tell he wanted me when the kiss turned hungry his desire as strong as mine but before we coul

Octavia’s POV I quickly hop in the shower to clean myself up and I can’t help thinking about how absolutely mind blowing that orgasm was, I have never felt like that before, that’s not to say sex with Klaus wasn’t great because it was but Troy has some serious skills. I guess he has had more experience than me since he was a bachelor and all, I just hope I can satisfy him as well as he does me. I finish in the shower and realize all my clothes are still in my suitcase in the bedroom, so I wrap the towel around me and try to sneak out of the bathroom, I don’t know why but I suddenly feel a little shy about being naked in front of Troy. Sneaking over to my suitcase I notice Troy and Nicklaus aren’t in the room anymore “What the?” I quickly get dressed, in Black skinny jeans, a Metallica t shirt and my twelve-stud black Dr Martin boots, and head out of my room in search for them. It doesn’t take me long to find them I just followed the sound of baby giggles, I round the corner and

Troy’s POV I watch Octavia leave with my sister and I can’t help staring at her perfect round ass cheeks as she walks. “So, I hear you two are getting along nicely.” Uhtred says from behind me when the girls are out of sight and I nearly jump out of my skin, for a big dude he sure is quiet. “Hey man, yea I think so… she is pretty hard to read sometimes though, she avoids questions and changes subjects quickly.” I look at Uhtred and he doesn’t seem surprised. “You get used to it, she has been this way ever since she inherited her second element (Water) when she was sixteen. Don’t take it too personally,” he says patting my back, “She just has a hard time controlling her emotions with the element. If she allows herself to feel an emotion too strongly, she can lose control and goddess knows what will happen if she does, usually she will drown someone in a sphere of liquid. Trust me when I say this… if her eyes glow dark blue and liquid starts rising… run fast and far away.” Uhtred shu
