“No,” He lied. His gut hurt as he did so.
“I think it does,” Clara said sharply, “You haven’t touched me since he’s scent changed to Lycan”.
“Clara…” Caleb started.
“You really think he’s more important now? Now you have a new wolf, that’s it.” She butted in.
“Clara…”
“You really take your role as Alpha way too seriously. It’s all work with you. What now you have to housetrain the new puppy yourself? Get someone else to do it.” She pushed.
“What? So, you can train him yourself?” Caleb said harshly, “Are you wanting lover boy all to yourself now he’s tried to save you?”
“You idiot!” Clara shouted.
“You must have a damsel in distress disorder. Any man saves you and they have your attention,” Caleb added.
“Will you shut up!” Clara roared at him. Caleb paused and looked closely at Clara. “I’m wanting time with you, you idiot!”
“With me?” he queried.
Clara sighed and lifted her hands to his cheeks. She stroked the slight five o’clock shadow along his jaw. “I’ve missed you,” she said softly, “All I wanted when I was gone was to come back here and curl up with you. I know it doesn’t make any sense, but you feel like the other half of me. When you’re not around, I feel lost”.
Caleb didn’t need to hear anymore. He grabbed her by the waste and pulled her in closer. His mouth devoured hers. Her hands moved around as her fingers moved into his hair. She kept her kiss on hers as his hands lowered to ass. He squeezed her firm cheeks and pushed her mound against his hardness. Neither of them cared that they were outside. With quick fingers, Caleb moved her hand around to the front of her jeans and dove in to find her already wet. A contented rumble hummed from his chest as he pushed his finger into her. He captured her moan in his mouth as his tongue danced with hers. Clara’s fingers tightened their grip on his hair.
Within seconds he had her writhing on his hand, her moans become louder and more breathless.
“I want you,” She moaned as she lowered her hands to his jeans to try and free him. Caleb removed his hand of her and quickly shredded his jeans with claws.
“I need you,” he replied with a rough rumbling voice. His mouth descended back onto hers. Clara took over and pushed them back up against the wall of the house. Pulling back from her, Caleb grinned, and he twisted them round so her back was against the wall. Her cheeks were flushed, and her lips were swollen. His mind instantly wondered what her other lips tasted like. In a blink he pulled her jeans down to her ankles taking her thong with them and went down on his knees.
“What are you…” A gasp escaped her as Caleb kissed her bald mound. With a quick dart of a tongue, he licked along the seem before parting the lips. He kissed her clit, before sucking hard of the swollen orb. Clara’s hands instantly moved to hold on to his head as her eyes fluttered closed. Lightening shocks filled her body as his tongue flicked her nub as he sucked on it.
“Fuck,” was all she could say in the moment before he put his finger back inside her. Warmth flooded her body as her hips moved at their own accord. Caleb kept a firm hold on her hips with one hand as he ate out her pussy as if he had been starving for years. Clara could feel her orgasm building and building, but she didn’t want to cum on his tongue. She had missed his touch so much. She wanted him inside her. She needed him inside her.
With a sharp pull on his hair she pulled his mouth away from her. He growled up at her, his eyes golden. Her wolf inside practically panted at the sight, while her pussy got even wetter. With a smile and a growl, she pulled him up until he once again towered over her.
“Mine,” she growled at him as she moved one hand to massage his proud member. Her growled in returned as he lips met hers. Clara could taste herself on his tongue and her body felt like it was on fire. She pulled him as close as she could and lifted one leg up around her hips. Caleb grinned against her kiss as he gripped her ass. Positioning himself quickly he hammered into her. Clara gasped and moaned with every thrust. Her hands clawed at his back, causing the scent of blood to mix in with the scent of their lovemaking.
Caleb slowly kissed her neck as he thrusted, while Clara rested her forehead against his shoulder. Quickly he lifted her other leg and pushed her right against the wall until it was just him and the wall taking her weight.
“Mine,” he groaned as his thrusts quickened, “You’re mine”.
“All yours,” she moaned in reply as her mouth kissed his neck.
The beast pushed forwards in her mind as his claws dug into her ass as he thrusted. Their scent mixed as they fucked harder and harder. Her body shook and shivered as orgasms rolled on straight after another. Her mouth burned as her fangs descended. Without thinking she bit down hard on Caleb’s shoulder as her body trembled with another orgasm. A howl filled her ears before a sharp but blissful pain hit her own shoulder. Her orgasm reached a new height as fireworks took over her vision.
They collapsed to the ground panting. Caleb took Clara’s weight and sat with her in his lap. Clara rested her head on his shoulder and sighed while his hands stroked her back. Everything felt right. Leaning back, she gazed at his face. Her human side told her it was still too soon to say what her wolf wanted to howl for the whole world to hear. But the man that held her felt like home, the home she had been waiting to find since she lost her parents.
“I love you,” Caleb said surprising her. His warm brown eyes watched hers as she stayed silent. Panic had set into his stare when she didn’t reply straight away.
“I love you too,” Clara smiled after a couple of minutes of watching him. With a soft caress she stroked his jawline, “You are everything I need,” she added planting a kiss on his lips.
Within seconds their kiss deepened again. Their hands roamed each other’s bodies as their passion set alight again.
A rough cough caused them to stop.
“Can you put each other down for a moment?” said Michael from the kitchen, “The newbie is awake asking for Clara”. A growl escaped Caleb. No other male was every going to have her. Clara chuckled, kissed him on the cheek before getting off of his lap.
“Maybe next time, we continue this is bed with a locked door,” she whispered to him. Clara grabbed her jeans from the ground and slipped them on, not bothering to put her thong back on. A feral part of Caleb was glad that she was going commando, his scent would be surrounding her when she went to meet the new wolf. Her ex would know exactly who she belonged to now. He watched as she walked into the house.
“You might want to follow her, he has some interesting facts about The Order,” Michael said coming out of the kitchen to lean against the backdoor frame.
“I’ll give it a few minutes,” Caleb said with a grin. His wolf wanted to relish in the memory of finally claiming his mate.
“If you’re going to stay there, at least put your pants back on,” Michael huffed before casting his glance to the garden, “He thinks there may be more females out there”.
Clara stepped into the medical room to see Howard sitting up on his bed cot. Only a month ago, she would have felt glad to be alone in a room with him. She would have pulled him back into bed with her. But now her nose wrinkled at his scent, it didn’t feel right.
“I meant it when I said sorry,” he said, “I should have let you run, or helped you to get out of The Order. If I did, then none of this would have happened”.
“We can’t change the past,” Clara replied sitting on the bed opposite him, “If you had helped me, I may have never found a pack that accepted me even with my past as a hunter”. She wanted to add that she would have never met Caleb, but she’d wait to deliver that news.
“The Order needs to be stopped,” Howard lifted his head to look her dead in the eye.
“I think every shifter in the world would agree with you,” Clara replied.
“No, I mean it,” Howard pushed, “I was doing research when I found out that you were the fe
male Lycan”.
“What did you find out?” Caleb said as he walked into the medical room with Michael. He didn’t stop walking until he was sitting next Clara. When his body touched hers a part of him that he didn’t realise was tense calmed down. Instinctively her hand moved to rest on his knee. His wolf was content enough to pay attention to what Howard was about to say.
“Clara isn’t the first hunter to be changed during a hunt,” Howard said, “and she isn’t the first female”.
“If there were others we’d know about it,” Michael scoffed in disbelief.
“There’s an ex-hunter living just outside of Birmingham in Cannock Chase, he’s been helping the bitten hunters go into hiding,” Howard said.
“Yeh, and what’s this man’s name?” Michael said. He wasn’t believing it at all. For fifty years, males have had to either settle down with human women without knowing whether they were their true mates or go it alone. If there were females out there, he was sure more Lycans would be talking about it. He knew strays often talked about trying to hunt down females, the mythical ones that a friend of a friend had spotted. But they were nothing but myths now.
“His name is Harley Finn,” Howard replied, “I don’t know how many females he’s helped. But there’s a reason why The Order recruits the people it does”
“What’s that reason?” Caleb asked.
“We all have shifter Heritage,” Howard replied.
“We all do?” Clara quizzed.
“It’s why we can match the strength of shifters,” Howard almost spat, “They may train us, but they recruit us by researching our family trees. That’s why they need to be stopped”.
“Why would they recruit us to kill our own kind?” Clara queried.
“General McKenzie, was known as the Exterminator in his day,” Howard said, “He pushed for females to be killed, but when half-breeds were being born, he ordered the organization to keep track of them in case they changed.”
“How do we stop them?” Caleb asked the group.
“We need to find the females first,” Michael said, “They aren’t safe in hiding, sooner or later someone is going to find them”.
“Then that’s what we will do,” Clara said, “They need a safe haven, and we are going to need an army to take down The Order”.
The group nodded with the idea. It was time for get ready for battle.
