“You don’t trust me?” I realized, and he hesitated.
“I just have to be sure,” he said quietly, but there was something in me that tugged.
He wasn’t lying, it didn’t give me that impression, but he was holding back, and I frowned at him.
“What aren’t you telling me?”
He eyed me, then shook his head. “You’ll feel me stronger for a bit.”
“And you don’t like that?” I stated.
“I don’t care that you will feel what I feel or my intentions, I care that your shadows are stronger than I’ve ever felt and it makes me nervous.”
“You’re still holding back.” I crossed my arms across my chest and hung one leg over the other.
“You know everything you need to know at the moment, Spitfire,” he breathed, then smirked, trying to break the new tension between us, but I knew it was just a distraction.
“Your shadows disagree. Mine are still telling me otherwise,” I explained, and he clenched his jaw.
He looked away, then pulled his chair closer so he was right in front of me.
“Your power, harnessed, could be exactly what we need to fight the war that’s coming. But it could also be the end of the Werewolf Territory if you don’t learn what you’re doing.
“Some of the wolves on the council believe keeping you could be our downfall. They believe you knew what you were doing on the night of the blood moon, that you planned to get called back and are working from the inside to take us down. Feeling what I just felt, I know you could do it,” he explained, speaking every truthful word with an ominous tone.
But I didn’t care what the council thought. I had no idea what the hell I was doing, and I had no ulterior motive. They’d figure that out when I helped them beat whatever was coming.
I did care what my alphas thought though, and it almost seemed like Braxton had questioned me too in that moment.
“And what do you believe?” I asked, tensing for the answer.
That’s when his signature grin spread across his face. “I believe that we have a secret weapon in and out of bed, and we’d be stupid not to use it to help us win.”
I smiled at that, his body pushing a familiar warmth through me. He was showing me it was the truth, that he trusted me, and I needed it.
I soaked it up, then licked my lips, about to get off my chair when he placed his hands on my thigh.
“I don’t want to play the game anymore. I had something better in mind,” I said, holding the sides of his face, my fingers moving up to the topknot on his head.
We both knew that if I pulled his hair out, we were fucking. The feel of his hair through my fingers, the strands brushing my shoulder as he thrust inside me… It was irresistible not to when those memories stole my focus.
He chuckled and grabbed my hand, holding it in his on my lap. “You have two alphas to find, Spitfire.” He winked, then sat back and nodded to me.
I sighed and closed my eyes. I knew I had to find them. The quicker I did, the quicker I got what I wanted, so I didn’t hold back. I went hunting, my shadows reading my intentions and racing to find my alphas.
22. The Beast
I found Kai first. I wasn’t even sure how, I just thought of him and my shadows were there, channeling him. They showed me where he was.
“Kai’s in my bed. Naked,” I laughed, the way he was feeling in that moment filling my own body the longer I kept channeling.
“About time, human,” Kai snickered, and I laughed again, wrapping my shadows around him so he knew I was definitely there.
“Of course he is,” Brax scoffed. “I told him to find somewhere unfamiliar, but I should have known better than to give him instructions.”
I licked my lips as Kai’s body filled with heat, desire, a need so fierce I sucked in a breath, heat flushing my own body. Oh, he knew I was there.
I tried to dig deeper, feel more so I could make out exactly what he was doing.
I could feel him, hear his moaning in my brain, and then I could see what he saw, like I was a passenger in his brain, seeing through a flimsy sheer curtain.
He had his grip on his cock, stroking it as pleasure filled us both. I fidgeted in my seat, a moan slipping out as my body felt what his did.
“Come here,” he invited.
I almost did. I wanted to so damn bad, but Brax grabbed my hand and broke my connection with Kai.
“Find Derik, then we can play,” he promised, and I nodded eagerly.
I closed my eyes again, and I threw myself into finding Derik. He was harder to find. He was definitely somewhere unfamiliar, and he was an expert at the wall he put up. I just had to find that barrier and break it down.
My shadows were going through the halls, sending me flashes of images, and it was actually fucking awesome. It gave me a rush of adrenaline to be using them and the power they came with.
I could see the halls and parts of the estate as they traveled to find Derik. I pushed them out, but they hit a barrier at the door to the estate. I sucked in a breath as they snapped back to me.
“What happened?” Brax asked, but I kept my eyes closed, going straight back to the door to the estate and pushing against it again. It was impenetrable.
“Is there some kind of magic at the doors to the estate?” I asked, and Braxton went silent for a tense minute.
“Yes.”
“Oh. I hit it.”
“Why are you trying to get out the doors?” he asked, and I shrugged.
“I thought he might be in the gardens. I haven’t found him yet.”
“Keep looking. Keep your shadows within these walls.”
“Got it,” I said, then kept hunting.
I got sick of waiting though and tried to help myself. I thought of Derik, his smell, taste, and touch. The side I got to see that nobody else did, the comfort of him, the slow passionate part of him that was ours.
I found him.
He was in his office, leaning back in his chair, reading a book on war tactics, and smirking. I smiled at the way he looked, so serious and yet so not in the same look.
“He’s in his office.”
“He’s always there,” Braxton said, and I nodded.
It looked like he was comfortable there. It was OCD tidy, with books lining the shelving, dark wood making up the desk, and a couch along the other wall that looked worn. There was a hide over the back, and I wondered how many times he had slept there so he could keep working for the pack as soon as he woke up.
He looked up, and it felt like he could see me, my shadows watching him.
“Well done, beautiful. See you in a minute.” He smiled, then closed his book and stood up.
I appreciated his muscular frame for a lasting second, then backed off. I opened my eyes and looked at Braxton with a grin.
“I found them. What do I win?” I asked.
He chuckled, then stood and kissed me, his lips crushing into mine, his hand cupping my face. I kissed him back, his tongue finding mine as he lifted me. I went easily, my legs wrapping around his waist.
Brax went to the platform at the end of the hall and sat me on it, stepping between my legs, kissing me roughly as he shoved my skirts out of the way.
I moaned into him as he kissed down my neck, licking over my collarbone, his fingers slipping beneath my dress. I cried out as he sank two into my wet heat without hesitating.
I clutched him, gasping and kissing him as my body filled with fire. Pleasure pulsed in my blood with every stroke of his fingers inside my pussy, and I rocked my hips against the friction he teased me with.
My head fell back as I gasped. He curled his fingers, flicked my clit, and I arched against the feelings hammering my body.
He stroked me faster, yanking down my dress, his mouth clamping on my nipple.
His tongue swirled around the peak before he nipped at it, growling as I ripped the band from his hair.
His blond waves fell around his shoulders, and I quickly buried my fingers in them.
I yanked his head back so I could meet his lips with mine, sliding my tongue against him as the pressure built inside me.
I was so gone to the pleasure he brought that I didn’t hear anyone else enter until Kai and Derik were next to Brax, both looking just as heady with lust. I licked my lips and looked over all three of them.
Brax paused his fingers inside me, the other two either side of him.
“What are you waiting for, Alphas?” I asked breathily, opening my legs wider.
