STORY EXCERPT 

Bider placed a finger against his ear and the ear mic.

“They’re five minutes out. Then we’ll have full-coverage security all the way to the Saint and Keuric property,” Viper told her.

“Great.” She looked at Malacay just as the SUV screeched to a halt and chaos erupted.

“Ambush!” Bider yelled back to Viper and her.

“Stay down!” he yelled at Malacay and the children. The girls cried, and the son grabbed his mother and covered her like a good future Alpha would.

“Malacay, take this. If anyone other than us tries to get into this SUV, you kill them,” Luna said and handed her a gun Luna had as an extra. Malacay took it with unsteady hands as Scor stepped on the gas and began to zig and zag between the vehicles. Suddenly, they were struck in the side. Luna went flying and hit the window, which cut her head and stunned her. Glass shattered and her shoulder burned, but she raised her weapon as a wolf jumped at the opening. She fired her weapon, the silver bullets stopping him in his tracks. Then others surrounded the vehicle. She, Viper, Bider, and Scor all fired their weapons, and then Viper and Scor shifted to their wolves. There was chaos outside of the SUV. The one side had them all trapped against the truck that had struck them. They had only one way and she could hear screaming and the roar of wolves fighting. In the distance she could have sworn she saw Cable’t the vampire appear and started tossing wolves, aiding in the fight. If he’d been called in, then Alexandra knew she was here too.  When the door opened, she nearly shot her weapon, but it was Viper in half shift.

“Get them out of here and to the next SUV. This one is done. Keuric pack is here. We’ll take out the enemies. Move them now,” he ordered. She grabbed onto the children with Malacay, and they ran from the vehicle. Luna’s head was throbbing, her shoulder burning, but she got them to the SUV just as a wolf jumped at her. She turned and fired her weapon, but he landed on top of her, roaring in pain. She shoved him from her and rolled to the right, got on her knees prepared to run. As she went to hop into the driver’s seat of the SUV, another man tackled her against the vehicle.

She cried out in pain. He roared, and then she cringed as she heard the gunfire and looked up to see Malacay pointing a gun at the wolf and firing the weapon. The wolf fell against her, crushing her in an awkward position against the frame of the car door. She slid to the ground.

“Luna!” Malacay yelled.

“Is she okay?” Viper asked as he came over, and then she heard other voices.

“Let me to her now. Move!”

A hand caressed her hair, and then fingers went to her neck. She shoved them away. “I’m not dead, I’m in pain,” she said in a pissed-off attitude.

As she tried getting up, after whomever checked her for a pulse removed the large dead, male body from on top of her, she exhaled and looked up. Her eyes widened, her heart began to race, and Lodge Keuric stared at her, eyes squinted. “I should have known it was you. No running away this time, sweetheart,” he said, and then he reached for her and scooped her into his arms as if she weighed nothing at all. She cringed and moaned. The pain in her shoulder, back, and head was so bad she gripped onto him and hissed against his shoulder. That move instantly brought on a surge of desire, and he knew it. “I feel it. My brothers will, too, and we’ll get to the bottom of who you are and why you keep running.”

“You’re not taking advantage of me, Alpha,” she whispered and tried lifting her head.

“Is she okay?” She glanced up as she heard the second male voice, deep, authoritative. His hand caressed her cheek and tilted her chin sideways. “That’s a bad cut.”

“She’s all banged up and cut on her shoulder too, Corporal,” Lodge said.

“We got every one of them. I say we don’t stick around here too long. There could be others. Let’s get them into the travel trailers and secured,” another one said, and then stared at her. Squinted, inhaled, and was next to her quickly.

“You found her?” he said to Lodge.

“She can’t seem to stay away,” Lodge said. She squinted as her head throbbed and her body ached more with each second that passed.

“She comes with us,” Corporal commanded. He started dishing out orders even to Viper, Bider, and Scor.

“Luna!” Gathin appeared, a scowl on his face and taking in the sight of the Alphas of Keuric pack.

He touched her face and went to take her into his arms, but Lodge wouldn’t let him take her from him.

“Release her to me.”

“Not a chance. Stand down and go clean up. We got this from here,” Lodge said, dismissing Gathin, who growled low. She didn’t want a situation. She wanted to secure Malacay and her family. That was priority.

“No, I go with Malacay and the children. Let me down now,” she ordered, but Lodge didn’t budge and started walking with her. She gripped his shoulder and looked at Malacay and her children. “I stay with the children and the woman. That is my mission and I will complete it,” she said through clenched teeth and began to wiggle free.

He squeezed her firmly and set her feet down. He could crush her he was so big. He stared down into her eyes, nostrils flared and breathing in her scent. “Fine, then they come with us too. But this time no disappearing, Luna. Those days are over.”

She glared at him, fought the attraction and instant knowledge that they were her mates. What was she going to do? As he released her and she went to walk with confidence, she nearly faltered. He reached for her, and so did Toby. “I got it. I can take care of myself,” she said to them, then turned. Malacay hugged her, and so did the children.

“It will be okay. They are Hunters of the gods, warriors and Alphas of Keuric pack. They’ll get us to safety. It’s over,” she said with confidence she didn’t really feel. Her danger wasn’t over. In fact, something told Luna her life just got even more complicated than before. Then her cell phone rang.

ADULT EXCERPT 

“By the gods, she is incredible,” Lodge said and Toby, blue eyes squinted, hands tight over her wrists, lowered himself and sniffed her neck. It tickled and she shivered, then gasped, as more cream dripped from her cunt.

“You are ours, mate. Don’t fight it.” He nipped her shoulder.

“Don’t mark me. I don’t even know you. It isn’t right, or fair,” she said.

“Right and fair does not exist when mating,” Corporal said as Toby lowered his mouth to hers and kissed her. They battled for control over that kiss, and the feel of his hard muscles and thick cock pressed against her had her body reacting. She thrust upward, rocking her hips, and he pressed down against her, nearly crushing her to the grass. She moaned into his mouth, and when he released her lips, she gasped for breath and then moaned some more as he took a taste of her breast and nipple. He licked, tugged, and sucked hard on her nipple, then lowered to the other side to do the same. The moment he lowered further and she lifted, Lodge gripped her hand on one side and Corporal gripped her other hand on the other side raising them above her head restraining her. She moaned louder, loving the feel of being restrained by both men. As her mind processed what she was about to allow to happen, Toby spread her thighs and began to feast on her. The first swipe of his tongue against her cunt made her gasp and then moan in pleasure. He licked her again, then plunged his tongue in deeply. She pushed her pelvis upward.

“Oh!” She moaned and wiggled as fear of what was happening and what she felt so intensely attacked her body fully. It was just as powerful as in her wolf form, and it shocked her.

“Easy, mate. We are going to make you feel so good. Your body is exceptional, your wolf glamorous and stunning. You are more than we could have hoped for in a mate,” Corporal said, holding her gaze. She was thrilled that they found her attractive in both wolf and human form. It was odd how she felt relieved, as if what they thought mattered. It did matter because they were her mates and wolves mated for life. She inhaled his scent, and then the mating musk filtered through her senses and her body and she relaxed.

That battle, that concern that she needed to wait, to not give in was disappearing. Could Alexandra be right? Could these men, her mates aid in her need to seek revenge? Her mind and body were under the spell of the mating musk. Immediately giving into each grand sensation, and every caress and kiss from her three mates. She was losing the battle to resist. Was this her fate? Would she truly be able to count on them to help her? Could she still seek revenge alone, because now she would fear for their lives as well? Confusion began to filter through her mind and resist the mating musk, but then Toby continued to explore with his mouth, and Lodge and Corporal with tongues and caresses. She weakened under their spell, under the depth fo the desire she felt to claim them hers as well.

“That’s it, mate. By the gods, tonight is going to be just the beginning,” Lodge said and then licked along her nipple as Corporal pressed his mouth to hers and kissed her while Toby feasted on her cream.

Every swipe of his tongue made this itch deep in her core grow stronger. She widened her thighs and tilted her hips so he could plunge his tongue deeper, and he did just that. She felt the change, the length of his tongue push into her cunt. The feel of Toby’s palm against her thigh as he raised it up over his shoulder so he had better access to her pussy drove her wild. She thrust against his tongue. He slurped and licked her cunt. It was overwhelming. He was big, muscular, and all wolf. She inhaled their combined scents, along with the mating musk that seemed to ease that tightness and fear that this wasn’t right, that the timing wasn’t correct.

She moaned some more. She felt desperation, need like never before. She knew that the only thing that could ease that itch was their cocks. Her mates’ cocks as they fucked and claimed her fully. She moaned and thrust up, pushing her breast against Lodge’s mouth, and then Corporal released her lips and cupped her breast and tugged on the nipple. Toby’s tongue slid out of her pussy and along her asshole.

“Oh, please. Please.” Luna begged for it.

“Are you ready for us? Do you submit and accept our claim of you, mate?” Toby asked her. The itch grew stronger, and in her mind she heard the word yes despite the confusion about her destiny and what she was meant to do.

“Yes. By the gods, I am yours.”

Toby lifted his mouth from her cunt, gripped her hips, and pressed the tip of his cock to her needy pussy.

“Yes, you are,” he said and slid right into her cunt, breaking the seal, being the first man, first wolf to ever fuck her. She cried out, and his eyes widened and he gripped her shoulders. Corporal and Lodge released their hold on her, and Toby breathed rapidly.

“Luna?” he whispered.

“My first. No others but you ever. You are my firsts,” she admitted.

Their expressions were indescribable. She wasn’t certain if they were pissed that she had been a virgin or aroused by it, but then she heard them as Toby lowered himself, cupped her face between his hands, and slowly rocked his cock in and out of her cunt.

“You are so very special. Never fear us, or this bond we have for eternity. To know that you are truly only ours—”

He didn’t finish. He closed his eyes and lifted up and began to thrust into her faster, deeper, his one hand on her shoulder, the other on her hip as he claimed her fully. “Incredible, and only ours. Always ours,” Corporal said. The itch lessened with every stroke, and she understood it. She got that this was her destiny. That she was meant to be their mate and they hers. She closed her eyes, moaned, and raised her arms above her head in submission, which earned her a nip to her neck.

“Perfection,” Toby said and then came inside of her. He grunted and then licked and kissed her skin. He nuzzled close, and she relaxed her body under his. When he lifted up and eased out of her, he gave a soft almost smile as he looked over her body and ran his palm along her throat, then down over her neck. “Amazing,” he said to her.
