His lips brushed teasingly against my own.
I reached up but my arms wouldn't move. Frowning, I turned my head to glance up at the headboard. He had tied my hands against it with scarves. A shocked gasp left my lips when his fingertips brushed against my sides and slowly moved lower and lower over my thighs and to my knees.
My eyes snapped open when he spread my legs apart. He chuckled and then reached for something. A few seconds later soft material brushed my skin before he wrapped it firmly around my leg a few inches above my knee. He tugged slightly and then reached down. The same was done to my other leg. I tried to close them, but they wouldn’t move.
Icy blue eyes slowly trailed over every inch of my body. I was tied up, naked, and completely exposed to his wondering gaze. I felt extremely vulnerable. I whimpered. He smiled and moved forward. Tugging on his jeans, he raised his leg to straddle the bench I'm tied down to. The rough material of his pants rubbed the skin on the inside of my thighs. He placed his hands on my legs and slowly trailed them lower until his fingers brushed against the lips of my sex.
A shadow appeared above me. I glanced up to find another man leaning over me from my left. His face was in the shadows which made it hard to see who he was. A low moan fell from my lips when his lips wrapped around a puckered nipple. He sucked on it sharply, making pleasure shoot down to my aching sex.
“Miss?”
Fingers spread the lips of my sex and warm air blew onto me. I squirmed, trying to tilt my hips upwards. Frustration hit me again. I couldn't move.
“Miss!”
My body jerked upright in bed. A dream. I blinked a few times to clear the sleep from my eyes before turning to the man hovering next to the bed. He was frowning down at me in disapproval. I tugged the sheets higher up my body and clutched them to my chest, not that it made the shame I felt disappear. A layer of perspiration coated my skin, making the new nightclothes stick to me. I shifted my legs and winced. My panties were soaked, and I still had that ache there.
“The Alphas has requested you to join them for lunch."
“Lunch?” I gasped, searching the room for a clock.
“Yes, it's past noon.”
He gave me one more look before turning and exiting the room. I waited five seconds after he had closed the door before throwing back the sheets and getting up. After twelve minutes I had showered and dressed. My hair was still dripping wet but I ignored it. I didn't want to keep them waiting.
The Alpha had given me a tour of the house the previous night so I knew my way around. The house was bigger than it had looked from the outside. It even had a library, a cinema room, and an indoor warm water pool. I couldn't swim so I was planning on steering well clear of the pool. My mind lingered on the memory of the library. It was huge! There had to be more than a thousand books on the floor-to-ceiling shelves that surrounded the room.
“Good morning Valeria.”
My body jerked in fright when I heard the deep, slightly husky voice coming from behind me. I turned and stared. This was the other Alpha. Golden brown eyes caught mine. Like the other Alpha—he had high cheekbones and a straight nose, but his lips were a little pouty and he had light brown hair that brushed the top of his shoulders.
The dream flashed through my mind again. The man whose face was in the shadows suddenly changed. It was a man with golden-brown eyes that leaned down to suck my nipple.
“Are you okay?” He took a step closer. “You're a little flushed.”
“I'm f-fine.” I glanced away from him.
What the hell was wrong with me? I just got here and now I'm imagining them pleasuring me?
“Come, Devon is waiting for us.”
He stepped forward and pressed his hand against my lower back to guide me in the right direction. Five minutes later we stepped into a room surrounded by glass windows. It faced a lake that was frozen solid due to the cold. A table was set in the middle and that was where Alpha Devon sat sipping on a glass of juice.
He stood when we entered and smiled at me. “I see you met David.”
“Y-yes.” I took the chair he pulled out for me.
My eyes dropped to my lap when they both took a seat. Silence settled around us. I felt uneasy and it had nothing to do with them.
“Did you sleep well, sweetheart?”
“Yes thank you, Alpha.”
“Devon.” My eyes snapped up to his. “You can call me Devon and him David.”
“Oh.”
“We have to go out after lunch to check on something, but we'll be back in time to show you around the pack grounds before dinner. Is that okay?”
“Yes,” I said softly. “I could go on my own though.”
“No, I don't want you walking around without an escort.”
My shoulders sagged. He had said that everyone was equal here. Was it just a lie to get me to drop my guard? Callused fingers gently brushed my cheek and then gripped my chin firmly. I glanced up at him. David gave me a small smile.
“It's not because of what you think,” he said softly. “You are small and fragile. Some of the Lycan's get a little out of hand this time of year. We don't want you walking around without an escort encase you run into one of them.”
“They'll hurt me because I'm human.”
He shook his head and gave me a frown. “No. They'll take whatever they want without regard for your health or whether you want it or not.”
It was my turn to frown at him. “I don't understand.”
His hand dropped as he leaned back in the chair. They glanced at each other before focusing on me. Devon leaned forward this time.
“You were born in our world. Don't you know anything about our customs or traditions?”
I shook my head and reached for my glass of juice. After taking a sip and placing the glass back on the table, I glanced between them. They were silently watching me.
“I don't . . . I usually just stay inside. Nobody ever invited me to anything.”
“Haven't your mother explained things? I was told that both your parents were Lycan's."
“Mum died during my birth and father a few weeks after in battle.”
“And your aunt?” David asked. “She raised you.”
I bit my lip as I debated on what and how much to tell them. Aunt took me in when the others wanted to banish me. I should be thankful for that, but she never treated me like one of her own. She made it seem like I was a burden.
Thankfully I was saved from answering when the lunch arrived. My stomach grumbled when the smell of grilled cheese filled my nostrils. I hadn't realized how hungry I was until now. I reached for the sandwich and then hesitated. My eyes darted up to Devon.
He gave me a small nod. I dug right in.

I was bored out of my mind.
They hadn't returned yet, and according to the woman who cleaned the house, they won't return until late. I explored every room in the house—excluding theirs—spend some time in the library, but I couldn't bring myself to concentrate on the book I wanted to read.
My mind kept trailing off to the dream I had which in return made me feel hot and achy. I was restless. I wondered around the house aimlessly. When I snapped back to reality, I found myself at the entrance of the pool. I hesitated and then entered. Steam rose from the still water in the pool. One side of the room was made entirely of glass. Devon had assured me that it was only one-sided—we could see out but nobody could see in.
I walked towards it and stared at the snow falling. It was starting to turn dark already even though it was still early. A movement to the right drew my attention. I gasped and stumbled a step back as a large brown wolf stepped out of the tree line. It sniffed on the ground for a few feet before standing still. I watched as its head tilted to the side slightly.
It growled. The next second another wolf ran out of the trees. It tackled the brown one to the ground. My heartbeat increased as they continued to roll around, snapping at each other. They stopped rolling and came to a stop right by the window in front of me. The brown one was on top. It licked the other one's face and neck. His low growl sent shivers down my spine.
The one beneath whined and started to struggle. The brown wolf moved back and watched. It moved forward again after a few seconds and pressed its snout against the other one's hind legs and sniffed upwards.
My mouth fell open when it started licking the other ones . . .. It took all but a second to realize that the brown wolf was male and the other one a female. She lowered her upper body to press her ass closer to his mouth. Her tail waggled back and forth, and low whines came from her.
I took a step closer to the window. Curiosity was getting the best of me. The brown wolf suddenly moved to stand over the female. It gripped the back of her neck which forced her rear end a little higher up. My eyes widened when I caught sight of his aroused flesh.
He growled again and then started humping. He moved slightly and then finally located the target. His growls turned louder as he moved faster. I could hear them panting. The female yelled and nipped at the air.
I jerked in fright when the male suddenly threw his head back and howled. That scary sound was enough to snap me out of my frozen state. I span around and ran out for the room. My bedroom door slammed shut behind me, making me wince. Walking over to the bed, I fell face-first onto it.
My heart was beating so fast, I could barely tell if it was fear or excitement.
What the hell is happening to me?
