Chapter 121 – Owned by the Alphas Novel Free by Jen Cooper

Filed to story: Owned by the Alphas Novel

All the wolves started shifting, racing to whoever they needed. Half of them clashed on the training field, their sparring turning to something entirely different.

The feeling of their heat hitting them hit me too, and I gritted my teeth against it. I needed my alphas.

My thighs trembled as the heat between them began to throb and ache. I was human, I wasn’t even meant to feel it so deeply, but it was there, thrumming in my blood, and I needed it to stop.

“Where are you?!” I heard in my head and winced, moving through the chaotic streets, averting my eyes as clothes tore, teeth gnashed, and flesh met.

Anetta whined from next to me, her throat letting a small howl out before she clamped down on it, her cheeks flushed, her eyes wide and dilated.

“I’m sorry,” I breathed, and she shook her head.

“Just move. The alphas are going to kill me for bringing you here. You’re unmated and exposed during the heat.

“With Fractum in effect, that could mean the wolves lose their shit enough to risk losing their lives,” she bit.

My heart raced at her words. I urged my aching body on faster, the desperation overwhelming me, but I had to ignore it.

“I’m in the city. I’m on my way back,” I said back to Derik, who I felt panicking.

I felt Kai’s anger radiate through me and grimaced. Fuck, they were pissed. I wasn’t, I was terrified.

“That brand, it calls to your mate?” I said, and she paused, looking at me before nodding. I didn’t miss the pity in her eyes.

“Yeah.”

“So Kai’s brand will hurt like a bitch the entire heat and he won’t be able to stop it calling for his mate the whole time?” I confirmed, and she nodded.

I moved faster, tears springing to my eyes as I swallowed hard.

“Kai?” I breathed into the link, and he met my connection.

“Run faster, Little Human. I need you.”

His voice was strained even in my head, and I regretted ever leaving the mansion.

I ran faster, ignoring the ache, ignoring my own desperation, knowing if his mate got there before I did, I was never going to forgive myself.

17. The Heat

KAI

Hot blood rushed through my veins, burning in my wrist as the brand pulsed, calling to my mate.

I howled as it seared my flesh. My whole body was on fire, the tightness igniting the rage inside me. I couldn’t breathe properly; the females howling through the windows made it so much worse.

I could feel Lorelai running, how puffed she was, how strained her little body was, but I burned for her.

I was trying to be patient but I felt trapped, like the lava in my blood was spilling over the sides and was going to explode if I didn’t relieve my hard cock in something.

I roared and punched my fist through the window, the shutters swinging out, the glass shattering, showering me in the shards. I welcomed the pain, my hunger insatiable, demanding more.

I spun as the door opened. Derik looked just as wild, his eyes wide as he slammed the door shut. He growled as another round of howls filled the air.

I clenched my eyes shut and dropped to my knees, letting loose a roar so loud the remaining windows shook with the force, then picked up a piece of glass and held it in my grasp, clutching it so tight blood dripped from my cut palm.

“Stop!” Derik grimaced and tried to stop me, but I snarled.

“I need the pain. Until she’s here,” I bit, knowing I was holding on to my control by a singular thread.

I’d never had to cling so tightly, and it was the hardest thing I’d ever done in my life. But I couldn’t let go. If I did, I’d be running through the mansion, hunting for the next pussy I could and my brand would lead that hunt.

It was not in control. I was.

“Where’s Brax?” Derik demanded, and I nodded toward the bathroom.

He’d barricaded himself in there until Lorelai got here. He had smashed everything up. I had heard every single thing in there getting destroyed as he roared, and I couldn’t blame him.

Derik stumbled over there and bashed on the door. “Brax!” he called, and Brax whined in response.

His shadows made it so much worse. With the brand burning through my layers of control quicker than I could put them up, I think I finally understood what he had gone through every heat.

“Where is she?!” Brax growled, refusing to connect to her so his shadows wouldn’t draw hers out–that was too dangerous.

“She’s almost here, Brax. Control it or you’ll hurt her!” Derik ordered, his voice cracking at the end as he fell against the door with his fists against it, groaning as the heat flared through him.

I felt the pack feeding their urges and desires, growling as I craved the same sating, checking in on Lorelai. I could almost smell her; she was close.

I clutched the glass shard tighter, the cut going deeper until it almost hit bone before it shattered. I picked up another one in my other hand.

And then I felt her. She was on the mansion grounds. My heart racing, my body alight in flame and pain, I dropped the glass shard and took off out the door.

I needed her–I had no control left.

I tore through the mansion, meeting her downstairs in the lobby as she grinned up at me, breathless and half-dressed. I had never been so glad to see her out in her underdress.

I growled lowly, crouching at the top of the stairs, my eyes pinning her in place as she sucked in a breath. My wrist burned violently, thrashing beneath my veins, and I knew it in my soul, in my wolf, in my heart.

The fates had given me the only thing I had ever begged for. Her.

“Mate,” I growled, jumping from the top of the stairs to the bottom, landing right in front of her before grabbing the sides of her face and claiming her as I was meant to.

She met my kiss like fire with fire, the world fading out of existence as I met the stroke of her tongue with my own.

I growled, pushing her back against the wall of the stairs, lifting her onto my waist as everything inside me clicked together, my soul sewing into hers, my brand releasing an unbearable pleasure through my body.

I felt hers too, the way our entire lives became a joint entity, and the way I knew I would die before I let anyone hurt her again.

I growled against her, my cock so fucking hard against her, straining, throbbing, needing to consummate our mating.

I shoved her dress up her thighs as she sighed, moaning as a brand seared into her wrist. She hissed at the flare of pain I felt in her, and then it was just pleasure. A full, devastating pleasure that coiled through every part of me and yanked me like a cord to her, a tether that would never sever.

I had to be inside her, I couldn’t wait. I just had to have her.

“Kai. God, Kai. Please,” she begged, and I felt everything she did, nothing hidden between us anymore. She was burning, for me, for us, for the release.

I smirked and found her mouth again, tearing through her underwear as I sank my canines into her neck.

She cried out, her nails scraping down my back as her chest throbbed with her racing heart against mine.

I should’ve trusted it, the brand, the magic. I had known how I felt, known how I had acted when we first got out of that carriage.

I had known she’d be mine, and the second I sank into her flesh, the way I had fit had told me exactly what I needed to know.

But she had been human, the mating not possible. Now she had our border magic in her. And I had no doubt our mating was a reward for her choice to take on the responsibility of the border.

I released my toxin into her as she writhed beneath me, her blood staining my tongue, making me lick it from the flesh I had pierced.

My toxin healed it up and I found her mouth again, my tongue sliding against hers as I pressed my cock into her.

She dug her nails in, stilling as her moans turned into a full-blown scream. I sank farther in, stretching her, my swollen cock filled with the heat and mating connection that she was going to have to get used to.

I groaned as she accepted me in her body, adjusting quickly, and the second I felt her relax against me, I fucked her like a crazed wolf.

I felt like one. Everything inside me screamed and begged for pleasure and release, for her.

She cried out as I fucked her into the wall. I smashed my hand against the stone behind her, debris crumbling around her, but she didn’t care, she still met my thrusts.

“Kai,” Derik said from the stairs, and I glared up at him, snarling as he looked at Lorelai.

His eyes went wide, and he ran a hand through his short hair.

“Fuck. You mated to her?” he asked incredulously.

I snarled again in warning, a possessiveness brimming in my chest that I couldn’t help. She whimpered as my strokes grew more demanding, my cock swelling inside her since another male was close.
