My palm itched with a burning need for blood. What just happened was enough to drive anyone insane-how dare those lowlifes come here and threaten us?
I could kill that fucker again if I had the chance, and Leo and I? We fear no one, especially not the pathetic Star Crust pack.
Our father, being part of the Alpha’s council, will undoubtedly handle the situation. But what baffled me was Aria’s sudden outburst, claiming it was her fault and offering to take the punishment.
Why would she do that? It didn’t make sense, and that only added to the fury burning within me.
Jagao, my lycan, had been restless ever since. The only way to calm him was to let him out. Leo felt the same.
Without a second thought, we headed toward the woods, a mutual understanding between us. We didn’t need words to communicate.
The second we stepped into the clearing, we both shifted. Our massive wolves hit the ground, their paws sinking into the earth as we took off running at full speed, the tension slowly ebbing away with each stride.
Jagao, in his wild excitement, tackled Leo’s wolf to the ground, and we wrestled. It was pure animal instinct-no thoughts, just raw, untamed power.
We spent hours running, feeling the cool breeze whipping past our fur, the scent of the forest grounding us. But then… something changed.
Suddenly, a familiar, sweet scent hit us-our mate.
Jagao’s ears perked up, and Leo’s wolf, Gigi, howled in response. Our mate was close. We both searched eagerly, and from behind a tree, there she was-Aria, in her wolf form, all white and glowing like she was born from the moon itself.
Gigi darted toward her, and Jagao and I followed suit, chasing after her as she led us deeper into the woods. We ran together for what felt like hours, our wolves in sync, basking in the joy of freedom.
Aria’s wolf was especially spirited, her excitement evident. Of course, it made sense-this was new for her.
She had just discovered her wolf, and now she could experience the world in ways she never had before.
Eventually, Leo and I shifted back into our human forms and found ourselves at our favorite spot-the lake by the mountain, where clear water flowed down the rocks and colorful flowers lined the shore. This was our sanctuary.
As we waded into the water to wash off, Aria lingered in her wolf form, pacing by the shore. Leo noticed first. “I think she’s nervous, brother.”
I smirked, knowing exactly why. Aria was shya virgin and the thought of baring herself in front of us probably sent her into a whirlwind of nerves.
She had always been conservative, and the things we had in store for her would no doubt make her blush.
“The water is soothing, Aria,” I mind-linked her, teasing. “Join us.”
There was a brief silence before her uncertain voice filled my head. “Um… could you guys be kind enough to turn around?”
Leo chuckled softly, shaking his head. “Always so modest.”
We both turned our backs to her, giving her the privacy she requested.
The sound of bones snapping and reshaping signaled her shift, and after a few seconds, her voice returned.
“You can turn around now.”
When we turned, our breath caught in our throats. Even submerged in water, with just her head above the surface, Aria was breathtaking.
Her cheeks were flushed, her eyes full of desire and nerves all at once.
Leo moved behind her, circling her like a predator closing in on its prey, while I stood in front of her, drawn to her beauty.
“You look so beautiful, baby,” Leo whispered, his voice rough with want.
“We’ve waited so long for this,” I added, my voice a low growl as I stepped closer.
My eyes locked with hers, and for a moment, it was just the two of us, suspended in the tension of the moment.
Her breathing hitched, and I could feel her body reacting to us, her pulse racing, her senses heightened by the pull of the bond.
“I’ve waited for this too,” she whispered, her voice barely audible.
That was it. I couldn’t hold back any longer. I crashed my lips onto hers, kissing her fiercely, hungrily. She kissed me back with equal passion, her lips soft but eager.
I wrapped my arms around her waist, pulling her body against mine. The water lapped around us as if urging us closer.
A soft moan escaped her lips when Leo’s hands skimmed her sides, his touch light but possessive.
He found her breasts, cupping them as his thumbs circled her already hard nipples. Aria’s head fell back against his chest, breaking our kiss as pleasure overtook her.
Leo lowered his mouth to her neck, kissing and nipping at her sensitive skin.
She arched her back, giving him more access, and I watched with ravenous eyes, completely captivated by her.
I couldn’t resist any longer. I bent down and took one of her nipples into my mouth, sucking gently.
Goddess, she tasted divine. Aria whimpered, her hands tangling in Leo’s hair as he continued to lavish attention on her neck.
Leo smirked against her skin. “You’re ours now, baby.”
Her response was a gasp as her body shuddered between us. I could feel the need radiating off her, but we weren’t going to rush this. No, we wanted her to enjoy every second, to feel every inch of pleasure we could give her.
Finally, she turned toward Leo, capturing his lips in a heated kiss, her fingers threading through his hair as their tongues danced.
I watched them, my own need growing stronger. My cock was throbbing, desperate for release, but I held back, knowing that when the time came, it would be worth the wait.
The bond between us was undeniable, and soon, we would claim her fully. But for now, this moment was about showing her just how much we craved her-mind, body, and soul.
