“What are you doing, Daisy?” Alpha Nolan’s rough voice called out, making my eyes snap open. My wolf was almost as tall as Alpha Nolan, my head reaching around his chest.
‘Shifting.’ I scoffed through the mind-link, giving Alpha Nolan a tired look.
“Come in the training building with me.” Alpha Nolan grunted, holding my bag in his hands.
I followed Alpha Nolan silently, my paws tapping against the thick pads on the floor. The lights were off inside, all coming on at once as Alpha Nolan flipped the switches. Once the door was closed, Alpha
Nolan turned to me.
“Shift.” His voice was rough and commanding. I’m sure Maya would’ve done anything he asked, so long as he used that tone.
The fur retreated from my body, my bones shifting back with minimal discomfort. My long raven colored hair hung down to my waist, covering most of my bre*sts as I stood b**e in front of Alpha Nolan.
“Later, Daisy.” Alpha Nolan smirked, his dark eyes captivating. “Your family is waiting outside.”
My face flushed, and for a moment I wondered if he could read my thoughts. Alpha Nolan pulled my spare set of clothes from my bag, slipping my loose t-shirt over my head. I pulled on another pair of leggings and slipped on some shoes.
I was pissed I ripped through my clothes when I shifted, but I couldn’t get undressed in the middle of a fight. That didn’t change the fact I lost my favorite pair of shoes during my shift.
The two of us walked outside, images of Alpha Nolan and I flickering through my head. Dad, Mason, and Breyona all had cheeky grins on their faces.
“I didn’t doubt you for a second, Daisy.” Mason’s lopsided smile formed on his face.
“I did.” Breyona shrugged, a grin on her own face. “But I’m pleasantly surprised!”
Grandma pasted a smile on her face, one I could see through in an instant. Her eyes were filled to the brim with worry, her hands clasped tightly.
“You did great out there.” Grandma smiled proudly.
Her smile seemed a little more convincing this time but did nothing to ease the tension in my stomach.
While everyone seemed elated over my victory, my stomach continued twisting in knots. Clearly something had happened during the fight, something that chilled me to the bone. I hadn’t won on my own, something had helped me. If I tried to picture the source, I could see smoky tendrils of darkness pulsing at the edge of the forest. They blended in with the shadows, nearly invisible to the nak*d eye. If I focused hard enough, I swore I could see them moving.
The strange surge of strength put Maya on edge. She hated the cold and prickly feeling that caressed our skin. It felt seductive and cold, unfeeling yet addicting. While I hadn’t a clue what I did, I promised myself that would be the last of it.
Alpha Nolan’s eyes lingered on the forest line, flickering back to me as he caught my gaze. Something turned in my stomach at the way Alpha Nolan looked on at the shadows. My gut was telling me he could see them, slithering into the darkness until called. Even Grandma looked uneasy, her lips turned up into a forced smile. Every now and again her eyes would run over me slowly, as if she were searching for something.
Alpha Bran had been placed out of sight, still unconscious in his wolf form. A sense of smug satisfaction filled me. I had defeated an Alpha. Alpha Bran was a far cry away from Alpha Nolan, but I had been successful. Alpha Nolan would receive aid from Alpha Bran, and I didn’t have to spend a night with the man.
Once everyone cleared from the training grounds, Alpha Nolan and I retreated inside the house. I hugged Breyona and Mason goodbye, promising to meet up with them tomorrow after training. Dad and Grandma had left, Dad’s shoulders lifting with pride as they walked back to the car.
I walked into Alpha Nolan’s bedroom without being told, the action simply felt right. After spending these few days with him, I couldn’t imagine sleeping in bed alone. It was strange how attached I became to Alpha Nolan, relying on his presence like a crutch. After a while, I stopped questioning the intense sxual attraction I felt towards the man. Now something new was simmering within me. Every intimate move Alpha Nolan made was stored in my mind, igniting feelings I hadn’t expected. These feelings weren’t born from lut and allure, but something deeper.
Choosing to focus on anything other than those feelings, I asked Alpha Nolan what happened during the fight.
“Did anythingstrange happen while I was fighting Alpha Bran?” I frowned, the words tasting sour in my mouth.
Alpha Nolan lifted my shirt from my head, another intimate action. I was keeping count at this point, each action making my insides flutter. Alpha Nolan insisted we shower but noticed how I seemed to wobble on my own feet. He was incredibly gentle, removing each piece of my clothing with ease. I could hardly feel his fingertips graze my skin as he removed my bra.
Alpha Nolan’s lips pressed together tightly, an expression I was beginning to anticipate. His dark brows pressed together, worry clouding his honey colored eyes.
“Strange?” Alpha Nolan murmured, his voice rough. “You could say that. Did you notice anything strange?”
It was my turn to purse my lips. I had learned my lesson about telling Alpha Nolan the truth. If I lied to him, it would only come back to bite me on the a*s.
I told Alpha Nolan about what happened during the fight. I gave every insignificant detail I could muster.
I gave a detailed description on how the small shards of ice danced across my skin, and the searing pain that erupted in my ankle. My ankle had already begun to heal, a red puckered wound lingering on my skin.
Alpha Nolan’s jaw clenched when I told him what the shadows had said, and how they fed from my blood. My stomach churned as I spoke, but I told him what the surge of power felt like. It was raw and ancient, yet dark and seductive. It was easy to become lost in that power, letting it flow unrestricted.
“That doesn’t sound good.” Alpha Nolan’s eyes darkened, the muscles in his jaw working roughly.
My pants and underwear hit the floor with a dull thud. It was clear Alpha Nolan had seen something during the fight, something he was reluctant to speak of. The pulse of allure and lu*t bounced between us, but our thoughts kept us occupied.
Alpha Nolan placed his hands on my hips and lifted me from the floor. As if it were second nature, I wrapped my legs around his hips. He walked the two of us into the shower and set me on my wobbly legs. The hot water eased my bruised skin wonderfully, lulling me into a sleepy daze. I forced myself to remain awake, to continue the conversation we were having.
“What could it have been?” I murmured warily, “They spoke in my head, like I was the one who called them.”
“Werewolves can’t do things like that, Daisy.” Alpha Nolan pursed his lips, grabbing a bottle of bodywash to lather over my skin. “That mean’s what happened probably stemmed from your other halfyour
Vampire side.”
“I’m not sure I want to know.” I frowned, my wide eyes meeting his own. That kind of power felt wrong, yet incredibly alluring. I felt strong harnessing this ancient power, but I could feel it leave a stain on my soul. That kind of power was addicting.
“It’s half of who you are.” Alpha Nolan smiled wearily. “You do not have to accept that side, but it is smart to learn what you can.”
“Breyona’s parents are big into history. They have all these ancient texts, but they still didn’t have much on Vampire’s.” I frowned.
“I can see what I can do on my part.” Alpha Nolan spun me around, rubbing the soft sponge against my back. “I make no promisesmany Alpha’s do not care for history.”
“That’s not a surprise.” I snorted, my eyes closing against my own will. Alpha Nolan set the sponge aside, letting his large hands glide over my shoulders.
His thumbs dug into the sore muscles on my shoulders, coaxing a tired moan from my lips. His hands paired with the hot water soothed my body, making me weak to the knees.
“I’d suggest you hold those sounds in, Daisy.” Alpha Nolan murmured, his lips only inches from my ear.
“You’re too exhausted for what I want to do to you.”
I could feel his length press against my back, hardened from the noise that left my lips. My cheeks burned red, but Alpha Nolan continued running his hands along my back. I clamped my lips shut, letting
Alpha Nolan’s hands work away my tension. It was another intimate act, another moment where things felt much more… serious.
“Talk to Breyona again.” Alpha Nolan murmured; my eyes began fluttering shut. “Reread what you’ve already read. I’ve learned coming back later can offer fresh perspective.”
I murmured something unintelligible, my head falling back against Alpha Nolan’s chest. The rest of the shower was a daze, my eyes refusing to stay open for the rest. Every so often, I could feel Alpha Nolan run his fingers along my skin. The move wasn’t s*xual, his fingers stayed far away from my private areas. Alpha Nolan trailed his fingers up my neck, along my collar bones and down my stomach.
His arm wrapped around my waist, holding me up as he massaged conditioner into my hair. He had been incredibly gentle, taking control and cleaning every inch of me. My eyes might’ve been closed and fighting sleep, but my stomach swarmed with butterflies.
“Sleepy, little Daisy.” Alpha Nolan chuckled lowly in my ear, sending a pang of something delightful between my legs. His voice continued to have a strong affect on me. “Your clever move must have left you drained.”
