Fuck, I wanted to punish her for something, anything. But she had to cross me first.
I would love to see my hand printed on that plump ass of hers.
She edged closer, her steps torturously slow and my dick hardened with every passing second.
I might not agree with William about many things, but I can agree on one thing. I was one insatiable bastard.
Maybe it was because she remained unmarked, but I hoped this feeling of need for her would never vanish. I lived for it, and I wouldn’t want to change it for the world.
My lust filled gaze wandered over her body, lingering on her thighs. Wanting to grip them, part them so she would be bare before me, unable to hide while I drink her in and trail her scars with my fingers until she begged me to touch her somewhere else.
Pressing her warm body flush against me, she gazed up. A playful smile, one I wanted to capture with mine.
“You are distracting me, little bird,” I whispered, my fingers raked through her long brown hair.
She huffed and rolled her eyes. “Sure, blame me.”
Chuckling darkly, finally having what I needed, I slapped her ass, making her squeal and blush.
“Don’t you dare roll your eyes at me.” My voice was harsh, but I wished she would do it again.
And as the defiant woman she was, she did.
The palm of my hand connected with her ass again and the sweet scent of her arousal wafted toward me. Her cheeks flushed, her lips parted and the lust in her gaze mirrored mine.
I was lost in the moment until my spine shivered. Logan’s restlessness made me peel myself away from my mate, and my eyes snapped up, meeting the gaze of one I hoped to never see again.
An Alpha Board member.
They found us.
A menacing growl resonated in my chest, and I pulled Joanne behind me, shielding her from danger.
He stepped closer, alone, with his hands up in surrender.
“Alpha Isaac.” He bared his neck and my nostrils flared, wondering if he was truly alone.
I had to kill him, he knew I was alive.
My claws slowly formed, ready to take his life, not seeing another escape.
“We need to talk.” He dared to meet my gaze, standing close enough that I could kill him without breaking a sweat, but my curiosity got the better of me.
“Speak then,” I snarled, stepping aside when he tried to look at Joanne.
“You found your mate? Good.”
I already knew where this was going, and I couldn’t give him what he wanted. Even though this itch inside me pushed me to go back. Reclaim my pack. But for what? They betrayed me. They all did.
Even now, on the run, I was happy. I had all I needed. I had Joanne. I didn’t need anything else.
My jaw ticked; I couldn’t lie to myself. Yes, she was enough. But I knew there was a part of me ready to break free. Scratching the walls I had put up over the years. The same walls were covered in a thin layer of ice, the ice that she melted away.
I couldn’t put it back, hiding it from the outside world. And maybe I wasn’t supposed to hide it anymore. Maybe this was why I was brought back to the living by the moon goddess herself.
“How did you find me?” I wouldn’t let my gaze wander around, not trusting him one bit.
Alpha Board member Emlyn. He was an old fuck, never agreeing with Alpha Gregory though. And still, he didn’t lift a finger to stop them from killing me.
