“So... was it good?”

His head lifted from where it rested against my shoulder, and those molten eyes cut to mine like I'd just dared

him to fight me.

“Good?” His voice cout low, ruined from growls and kisses, threaded with disbelief. “Little wolf, you think I'd

let you walk after ‘good?”

Heat flared in my cheeks, but my mouth was faster than my shame. “Well, you were alright. Maybe a solid

seven.”

The rumble in his chest shook through me, a dangerous laugh that promised retribution. His hand tightened on

my hip, claws ghosting skin.

“Seven?” He dragged the word like a threat, pressing his mouth to the mark he’d left at my throat. His teeth

scraped, slow, deliberate. “You'll say that again when you can stand.”

My pulse leapt, stubbornness sparking even as my body betrayed me, trembling under his touch. “Maybe I'll say

six.”

That earneda snarl, rough and low, before he rolledbeneath him again.

“Grayson-it’s sunrise.” My voice cout husky, ruined. “We don’t have time.”

He growled low, almost pained, as if the sun itself had betrayed him. “The pack can wait.”

“They can’t.” | bit back a gasp when his teeth grazed the swell of my breast through the sheet. “There's too

much to fix-repairs, supplies, wounded...”

“Right.”

I laugh at his ridiculous expression. Goddess, how can I love this man this much?

“Promise... just one last time,” | rasped, mimicking the way he’d begged last night. “I'll be gentler, Jess.

Goddess, | need you.”

“You little-"

| pressed my lips together, failing to stifle my laugh. “That was you. All needy and desperate, like one more

wasn't enough.” | propped my chin on my elbow, the sheet clutched against my chest, my grin wide and

shameless. “Alpha, please. Just one more-"

The growl he gavethis tshook through the bed. A second later, he was on me, draggingacross the

sheets until | yelped.

“If we really don’t have to attend that meeting later at breakfast...”

The words barely left my mouth before his hand fisted in the sheet, tearing it from my grip. My squeak turned

into a gasp as he pinnedflat, molten eyes burning down atlike I'd just signed my own death

sentence.

Seconds. That's all it took.

Now | was panting, hair plastered to my temples, nails biting crescent moons into his shoulders. “Oh, Goddess....

I'm gonna be fucking sore.”

Grayson laughed-low, ruined, satisfied. He shifted, pressing a quick kiss to the corner of my mouth before

peeling himself back. “Shower. We've got one hour before the breakfast meeting.”

Although the shower was supposed to wake me, it didn’t—it brokefurther. His hands never stopped, his

mouth never relented. By the twe stumbled out, dripping and bruised, | could barely tell if the water or him

had wreckedmore.

Now, walking beside him, my damp hair sticking to my neck, his hand laced tightly through mine, | tried to

steady my breath. Tried, and failed.

“I thought you two would still be busy marking each other,” Jack whistled as soon as we stepped into Kade’'s

house.

The others were already gathered around the long table. Heat shot up my neck.

“Busy?” he echoed, gaze sweeping over the table, daring any of them to meet it. “If she could still walk straight,

maybe.”

A few choked laughs. “Grayson-“I hissed under my breath, but he only draggedcloser, until his mouth

brushed my ear. “What the hell are you doing?”

“Claiming you.”

Hours ago, he already claimedin front of the whole pack but it seems like that wasn’t enough for him. I let

him do whatever he wanted and just grab a chair on the table as he shook hands with the others.

I never really peg Grayson Westwood to be like this but | guess, | never really saw him before outside of his role

as the alpha.

“Surprise, you can still walk, hmm?”

“Oh my!” Shock, | turn my head to see a very unfamiliar place. Unfamiliar because as far as | know, I'm the only

woman in here until now. “Sorry. Who are you?”

The new girls grin is huge, and Jack snorts. Is it justor does she look irritated as soon as Jack drops his

hands on me?

“That's Bella.”

I've been with the pack for months now and it welcomedin every possible way. It givesa full view of

what they do and what they allow in this secret organization they had but | never heard of that nuntil

now.

“She’s Grayson’s right hand on this pack.”

Right hand? | thought that was Kade.

Jack inches forward and | cannot help to notice how Bella's eyes follow his movement with a frown.

“More like an advisor, actually.”

Okay, that doesn’t make sense at all. How can he, the great Grayson Westwood take advice from someone

especially a woman? I'm not judging but from the years that I've known him, Grayson can be a bit of a

misogynist. | resisted the urge to ask more when Grayson found us and joined us on the table himself.

“Well, you've met Bella.”

“Yup.” | grab swater and drink from it. “Your advisor?” There’s no need to hide it anyway. It's not like I'm

jealous or irritated. I'm just kinda confused. “Since when?”

Grayson'’s lips twitch in that way that tellsI've said something in between those lines. “Since I'm ten.”

Wow.

“That’s...amazing!” | need to get out of here. Jack must've noticed when he suddenly said that he’s going to

showsomething and nodded to Grayson as if it’s ssignal for whatever it is they are hiding from me. My

gaze is still on them when Jack dragsto the other side, filling my plate with food. “Who's that?”

“Bella.”

| glare at him. “Who is she?”

“I told you, Bella.”

| grumble under my breath, but decided it’s not worth it to throw another scandal in this place. After all, they all

had a long night last night after the attacks. | cannot help but to notice how almost everyone heals so fast. I've

been told that each alpha’s here lead a large pack of their own and maybe that’s the reason why we also have

supplies being delivered.

Once done, Jack pulls out a chair and motions forto sit.

“Sit down,” he says. “Grayson’s leading this meeting so I'm in charge of keeping my eye on you.”

| can perfectly see that.

“He seems to be very good at leading,” | mutter more to myself as | ground my eyes in front. Grayson is now

standing at the center with Bella beside him.

Jack chuckles as he lowers himself down beside me. Grayson never toldwhat this meeting is all about. |

thought Kade is going to lead it but it turns out, it's my great mate who will do all the talking.

Settle down, guys,” Grayson’s voice abrupts the chaos and everyone went to obey him. ” First of all, | want to

thank you for saving our asses last night.”

“Pussy!”

“Save us the introduction, alpha!”

“No s, please!”

I've never seen this pack of alphas behave like this other than the first Grayson had broughthere. Something

tellsthat their relationship goes so much deeper than they are allowingto know.

“We've got no casualties and that’s a good sign. Our plan is now in motion and the other packs will now start

respecting us.”

“What is he talking about?” | asked Jack.

Jack sighs. “The other pack who attacked us wants you for their own power but when Grayson marks you, it

sends a message.”

| shake my head, still not understanding.

“That you, Jessica Wilkinson, a hybrid omega is now binded to this pack of alphas and you are, as of this

moment, under our protection.”
