Chapter 69
Cassidy came into the entryway behind James when he yelled at Alaric and Jett, her lips twitching in amusement a little when they both looked up at their alpha like guilty children. “Jett, let go of my mates Beta.” She commanded in a gentle tone.

Both of the Betas were flushed and breathing heavy, their clothes torn as if they had been fighting for a good few . Jett was the first one to rise when Cassidy told him to release Alaric, he going up to his knees but keeping a hand firmly fisted in the other beta’s shirt between his shoulder blades to keep the other man down. Yet when he rose off of the other man, Alaric began to growl, the sound aggressive and vicious. It was aggressive enough Cassidy took a step back, expecting a fight to break out.

James responded instantly to Alaric’s aggression with his own. He loved Alaric as if he was his brother. The man was his best friend through his entire life. But he was also a beta. It wasn't unheard of for beta wolves to become alphas. They genetically had every strength an alpha had, minus the natural ability to force dominance on other wolves and force obedience. Before Cassidy, James would have welcomed a challenge from Alaric. They were both on the same level playing field when it came to strength and training but now he had a mate. He had to keep her safe, which so far he was failing miserably at. Now, he had to handle his best friend like an alpha and get the beta back into his place.

Before Alaric could even finish his growl that set Cassidy back a step, James had halfway shifted. By the time Alaric looked up at James, the alpha’s clothes were splitting off of him and the massive, green eyed black wolf was glaring down at the man laid out on his belly. Jett flinched backwards at the snarl that came from James, he glancing to Cassidy with a worried look, releasing Alaric's shirt to place both his hands on the floor and bowing his head in submission to James.

Alaric however, lifted his head and glared right up into the bared teeth and angry eyes of his alpha but he didn't move otherwise. The dominance radiating from James was too strong to ignore and after several long seconds when it seemed like the man was going to challenge James,there was a heart wrenching sound of a whimpered whine that left the beta as his entire body finally relaxed when he let go of his own aggression. The beta submitted to the alpha and lay his head back on the smooth wooden floor boards, closing his eyes to fight the rush of tears to his eyes.

Cassidy felt her blood run hot at the sight of her mate as he stood over Alaric in his wolven form. Where his dominance and commanding presence brought the Beta’s to heel and their submission and any other wolf that may have been spectator to what was happening it had absolutely no affect on her as far as bringing her into submission. It had quite the opposite reaction within her. Her wolf was turned on, growling within her mind with the need to meet that aggression head on. Her breathing became slightly quicker as a shiver of recognition brought the heat that had been rushing through her body to go straight to her core. The bond was pulling strongly out of nowhere that Cassidy could understand and she gasped in surprise when James’ head snapped directly to her.

► Do you enjoy this? ◄ James’ wolf asked Cassidy, picking up the light fragrance of her sudden arousal.

Jett and Alaric both quickly glanced at each other when James spoke to Cassidy, Jett suddenly worried for the Luna with the aggression that was pouring off of the Alpha.

Cassidy had to swallow, the hair raising in awareness along the nape of her neck when James confronted her. She glanced over at the two beta’s and blushed before her attention went back to James. “I think they need to leave…” she suggested in a hushed tone.

When Cassidy made the suggestion for the men to leave, James turned his head back to the pair of betas and his growl was clear in meaning. Both of the men scrambled to their feet and got out of there as fast as they could. James gave a little snort when they left, displeased with the two wolves but his attention was quickly back to Cassidy. He shifted back into his human form and stood before his mate, looking her over briefly before he let out another growl and marched towards her.

Cassidy did not move when James came towards her, meeting him head on as he gripped her arms and pulled her to him. James lowered his head and his mouth took possession of hers in a rough and demanding kiss that she returned with the same amount of urgency he was displaying. When they broke apart, both James and Cassidy were breathing hard with panting breaths, staring at each other as if it had been months and not days since they had been in each others company.

“Bedroom?” she asked in a whisper, afraid if they kept going they would end up on the floor right here in the entrance to the Packhouse.

“Yes.”

It was all that was said between the two before James scooped Cassidy up into his arms and ran, taking the stairs two and three at a time. He didn't waste any time trying to decide which room to take her to, he making a straight line for his own door. He barely got the door shut before Cassidy was nearly trying to climb up his body, wrapping her legs around his waist. She linked her arms around his neck, nipping his chin and then his lips before they kissed again. He was already naked and hard as stone for his mate. A small, sane part of James’ mind told him to be careful with his Luna but it was overpowered by the bond and instinctive need that was swiftly rising to reclaim what was his.

The instinct was like a commanding pulse within Cassidy’s mind. Insistent and screaming to be united back with the male that had her wrapped within his arms. She needed his scent and his touch on her body. Pulling back, Cassidy broke the kiss and pulled off the scrub top she had been given to wear as James headed towards the bed. She found herself being laid back onto the soft mattress and then a hot mouth taking in her breast and sucking on the rose colored peak strongly. Arching with a low moan, raising her breasts in offering while she scraped her nails through his hair and his hands explored her body. James lifted his mouth from Cassidy’s breast with a pop from the suction before he went for the other, giving it the same attention until Cassidy let out a little frustrated growl and wiggled under him.

James responded with his own. He was just as impatient as she and his hands dropped to the elastic band of her pants. Releasing her nipple from his lips, he leaned back and pulled her bottoms off completely, tossing them to the side as he went to his knees and hooked her legs over his shoulders. James moved quick with a hungry growl, pulling her hips right to the edge of the bed and diving in between her thighs before Cassidy knew what was happening. Strong hands gripped her hips and as soon as his mouth descended down onto her clit, his mate bucked her hips and let out a loud moan. He lapped at her from her soaked entrance to the bundle of sensitive tissue. She was like sweet cream and he could not get enough of her taste, or the sounds she was making. Her pleas were music to his ears.

Cassidy had not expected James to go down on her. He pulled her so quickly to the bed she barely had time to take a breath before the man wrapped his lips around her clit, drawing it into his mouth in a powerful suck. She gripped the bed covers under her, her hips giving a jerking buck against his mouth as she moaned loudly. He was expertly sampling her, drawing moans and shouts of curses from Cassidy as she lay under the assault of his tongue. She breathed his name when she felt her body warming, tension rising within her core as an orgasm swiftly approached. James was feasting between her thighs one second and the next he was over top of her with an aggressive growl.

His entrance was swift, guiding himself into her slick sheath and thrusting in deeply. Her cry of his name, the pleading sound in her voice had his heart racing as instinct flooded him. James sank his fingers into her hair with one hand, the other holding her thigh up over his hip with a rough grip as he pinned her down. There was nothing gentle about it as he took her. Cassidy's fingers and nails dug deep into his sides as he thrust hard and deep in a quick pace. She arched and screamed underneath of him in pleasure as her walls contracted and gripped him firmly while she experienced the most intense of the orgasms she had. “Fuck me… please!” she begged and James let out a gruff sound as Cassidy writhed under him and shouted, his hips slowing as his breathing became ragged.

“Fuck…” he snarled and lifted her hips to get a deeper angle, pounding himself into her as she begged and after a handful of thrusts he joined her in her release, coming hard as he pressed himself deeply into her warmth.

James held himself up over top of Cassidy for several minutes as they both came down from the high they felt. He kissed her slow and gentle, taking pleasure in the soft whimpers and sighs that came from his well satisfied mate. When her core finally stopped pulsing and clenching around him, he pulled from her with a groan. Neither of them had hard slept in the last four days without each other. James carefully climbed up into the bed, bringing Cassidy up with him to tuck her in close to his body.

Cassidy didn't resist or argue when James got into the bed and stretched out across it, pulling her up and into his arms. She was home. This… in her mates arms. This was her home. She felt almost drugged with exhaustion. If she had been a cat she would be purring in satisfaction from the intense pleasure they shared. She wanted to talk with him, spend some time awake, but as soon as her head laid on his shoulder, she fell asleep with James soon to follow.
