Voodoo and Fate

by Tamsin Baker

  ‘Please, Alpha, reconsider.’

  She followed him along the line, begging him in front of the whole pack.

  A titter went through the people around her, but she focused on Grayson, pleading with him with her eyes and hands, steepling her fingers together in front of her. ‘Please.’

  Grayson’s gaze darted out and he grabbed one of the women in the line. Blonde, with a small build, about thirty and would make a terrible partner for him.

  Amelia let her mouth drop open in exaggerated shock at his move. He’d already chosen not to have her. What was he doing?

  Grayson held the woman in front of him and sniffed obviously, moaning with exaggeration. ‘I’ll choose her if no one else presents for me.’

  The blonde grinned with a malice that stiffened Amelia’s resolve even more. She let her hands fall to her sides and straightened up, looking her Alpha directly in the eyes. No way was that woman leading her pack.

  ‘No, she will be a terrible mate to you.’

  The female wolf snarled in her direction.

  Amelia pointed at her.

  ‘Can’t you feel it? The ice? Where’s the heart in her?’

  Grayson glanced down at the blonde and then pushed her back into the line, his erection now subsided thanks to the woman he’d been holding. It was a sad sight to behold and Amelia’s mouth watered at the erotic thoughts whirling around in her mind.

  She licked her lips and let her eyes wander his body. What would he taste like? His skin, his cock? What would he teach her to do?

  ‘Amelia, my decree stands. I cannot choose a woman less than twenty-five years and you are not of age.’

  She raised her voice and swallowed down the fear rising in her throat like a hot tide. ‘I am. I was four years ago.’

  He narrowed his eyes and she walked closer, shivering at the strength in his gaze.

  ‘Please Alpha, change the rules back to what they would have been for the past generations. I reached maturity at the same time you did four years ago. Please don’t choose anyone else.’

  She held her arms out wide and held her head in a submissive position for him to inspect her.

  Amelia waited, her breath quickening as the moments ticked by.

  He drew closer, smelling her and groaning with a deep sound that was reflected in the crowd as several men made similar noises in their throats, the betas tuning into their Alpha once more.

  He stepped even closer, his now erect cock touching her belly as he leaned into lick her. The smooth heat of it made desire uncurl in her belly, lighting a fire through her pussy.

  Amelia gasped as her eyes slid shut, rolls of pleasure pulsing through her being as he set his lips to her throat and licked the length of her neck. She moaned with him, her lips parting as lights flashed behind her closed eyelids.

  Grayson recoiled and gasped. Amelia slid to her knees as all strength in her legs disappeared, tingles spreading through her body like ripples in a pond.

  She shivered and stared up at him, the wet tip of his cock red and bulging before her eyes.

  ‘Please, Alpha.’

  The women around her began to bicker and yell out.

  ‘You can’t change the rules now. You said twenty-five and she’s not. It doesn’t count.’

  ‘Stop! Submit!’ Grayson growled into the night and the whole pack flew to their knees, locked into place as their leader worked out what needed to be done.

  Just as she had a few days ago, Amelia looked around to imitate the position the Alpha demanded of her.

  Even as a child she’d been able to ignore his commands, and her parents had trained her to follow them and hide her strange ability.

  She suddenly realised why and slowly pushed herself to her feet.

  It was time to prove who she was.

  ‘What are you doing Amelia? Get down!’

  Grayson raised his voice and she felt the tug of his panic and the whimper of the betas around her.

  ‘No. I need to show you who I really am. I’m your mate, the one designed for you. We should have always been together and I need you to know that.’

  He continued to stare at her as he stood in a sea of kneeling submissives and she reached up and wrapped her arms around his neck.

  He moved his hands to her waist but waited with wide eyes for her to make the next move.

  ‘I’m the Alpha female you need. I will serve you, honour you and follow you.’

  She lifted her lips and pressed them against his.

  He groaned and devoured her, his tongue sweeping into her mouth and tasting her while also giving her the taste of him that she needed.

  Her eyes slid shut and she held on for the ride. The Alpha had her now and she was happy to give over all control.

  Chapter 4.

  She tasted like sunshine and love and home. All the things he’d wanted and never knew could exist in a single kiss.

  Grayson pulled back and stared down at the woman in his arms. His mate. The one he needed, the one his pack needed.

  He drew her to his side and held her close, her heat a strength in the cold world around him. He surveyed the people before him, all still in their identical poses of submission.

  He looked at her again. Amazing.

  ‘All rise, please. I have chosen my mate.’

  Angry glares hit him from several directions and he snarled at the females showing their envy.

  ‘I was wrong to raise the age limit that has been chosen by our forefathers. Twenty-one is the age of female maturity and my mate has waited long enough for me to find her. Shift and run beneath the full moon tonight, for tomorrow you will welcome in your new Alpha female and our pack will once again be strong.’

  Whoops and happy noises rose from the crowd as something deep inside him clicked into place.

  Grayson threw back his head and howled, the sound that he usually had to force from his body, feeling for the very first time, completely natural and strong.

  An echo surrounded him as clothes began to fly. His pack began to shift and run as he had told them to.

  Good.

  He nodded once and grabbed Amelia around the waist, lifting her up into his arms and turning away from his pack.

  He took off at a run, his legs pumping hard as he carried his mate in his arms. He made it back to his home in mere moments.

  He kicked in the front door and took her straight to his bed, the frame and mattress brand new from this morning. Made for him by one of his betas, with his new mate in mind. But as Grayson threw her down on to the mattress and his body throbbed with hunger and need, he let the pure relief wash over him that robbed him of most of his strength.

  His shoulders sagged and he let his head hang down for a moment, tears stinging the backs of his eyes.

  He had his mate, but he had so much more. Not only a female to give him an heir and his pack a future. If correct, Amelia was the woman fate always meant for him to mate. She would love him with all her heart and open her body for him every day for their whole lives.

  Just as his mother had done for his father, and all of the women of his line had done for the Alphas before him.

  Grayson forced himself to open his eyes and stared down at Amelia, the mate he’d chosen. She’d arranged herself on the pillows so that her hair floated around her like an auburn cloud and she’d opened her legs for him.

  As he looked up she smiled and held out her arms to him. Heaven was beckoning.

  He grinned and paused to savour the moment, letting his eyes wander down her luscious body. The perfect curves, pink tipped breasts and lush thighs; and between her legs, a small thatch of hair that would soon be his haven from the world.

  He knelt on the bed and his wolf growled inside him, forcing him to stop.

  ‘How many?’

  She stared at him and lifted her eyebrows in question.

  ‘Lovers,’ he clarified, clenching his teeth in readiness for the answer. If she’d been known to be his mate from an early age they would have pr
epared her for him, kept her safe.

  But she hadn’t been and at twenty-five he was prepared for an answer that wouldn’t please him.

  Her eyes softened and she stared directly at him.

  ‘None.’

  Impossible.

  ‘Why?’

  She shrugged her shoulders and reached out for him again. ‘I knew I was meant to be yours.’

  Relief flowed through him that was neither modern nor rational, and yet it was perfect. He’d make sure she never regretted that choice.

  ‘Thank you.’

  He bent his head and kissed her lips gently, tasting her sweetness before he jumped over her and lowered himself down between her thighs.

  The heat of her body pressed into his and he moaned against her mouth as he kissed her.

  She wrapped her strong legs around his waist and tilted her pelvis up to him in an invitation as old as time.

  A primal urge to sink his rapidly stiffening cock into her swept through him, but the need to look after her overrode any other thoughts.

  He kissed a path down her long neck, loving the way her hands touched his shoulders and hair as he moved. She clung to him and he wanted that obvious desperation of hers to be close to him to never fade from their relationship.

  He reached her large breasts and groaned as he plumped them up with his hands, setting his lips down onto each perfect peak. They were a cherry red and tasted as sweet as her lips as he suckled one and then the other.

  She arched her back and moaned with pleasure, the sound going straight to his already thick cock. He wanted her screaming for him before he took her.

  Grayson travelled further south, loving the scent of her pussy that met his nostrils as he spread her thighs wide and looked down at her perfect pink petals.

  She already glistened with wetness and he licked his lips as his gaze honed in on the tiny little clit that was hidden beneath the hood.

  He bent forward and rolled his tongue around the little nub, his mate bucking and crying out as he worked her. Flicking her clit with his tongue from side to side and then moving lower to taste her cream.

  He purred in bliss as she covered his tongue.

  Her fingernails dug into his hair and he moved back to her clit, flicking the now swollen little nub with his tongue as he raised his hand and slid one long finger into her tight pussy.

  She screamed and grabbed for him, her strong legs gripping him tight as he worked her sheath with one finger, then added a second, stretching the virgin tissues and readying her for him.

  ‘You taste amazing, my beautiful girl.’

  Amelia was responding so naturally for him and her breathy cries and moans had him aching to take her.

  ‘Please Grayson … Alpha … please come to me.’

  She pulled at his shoulders and he rose up.

  ‘Grayson in our bed. Always.’

  She nodded and lifted her knees for him, her cheeks flushed with passion as he lined up his cock and nudged her lips with it.

  ‘Ah! Oh ...’

  She wiggled under his hands and covered his throat and neck with kisses.

  He was never going to last. Her enthusiasm and passion alone would be his undoing.

  He pushed his hands into the mattress and arched up, looking down at her as he flexed his hips and slid into her tight, wet sheath.

  Her eyes went wide and she held her breath, his cock forging through the thin barrier and her gasp of pain ringing in his ears.

  He captured her lips in a kiss as he seated himself fully inside her, her pussy wrapping around him like a custom made glove, tight and warm.

  ‘You okay?’

  She nodded and wrapped her arms around his back. He pulled back and then moved forward again, her soft breasts heaving against his chest as she began to moan with each thrust.

  Her pussy began to squeeze him and he grunted, holding onto the thin amount of control he had.

  Sweat gathered on his brow as he pumped harder into her, her squeals and kisses a testament to how passionate she was.

  As she began to gasp louder and strain against him, he let go of his restraints, thrusting into her with a pounding rhythm that had them both crying out.

  The heat began to travel up his spine and over his head as his balls tightened against him.

  ‘Cum with me, my beautiful one. I’m going to cum in you …’

  He reached beneath her and grabbed her arse, lifting her pelvis for him as he pressed deep.

  His orgasm ripped through him as his seed pulsed from him, waves of euphoria spreading over him in a storm of sensation.

  Amelia screamed in his ear, her nails digging into his back as her pussy contracted around him in waves, milking his seed up and into her body, creating the perfect body for his new child.

  He sagged against her, their hearts beating in time with one another.

  He kissed her soft lips and saw the sheen of unshed tears in her eyes.

  ‘Are you all right?’

  She nodded, swallowing hard before laughing strangely. ‘I just … yes ... wow.’

  He chuckled and regretfully withdrew, rolling off her to arrange himself for sleep, pulling her into him so that he could hold her through the long night ahead.

  ‘I’m so glad I’ve finally found you.’

  She bumped her pelvis back into him and wiggled in his lap.

  He squeezed her tighter an ache he’d been carrying for so many years releasing like a lid on a jar.

  Amelia’s gentle voice stole into the night around them ‘We’re finally going to have a family again, aren’t we, Grayson?’

  He kissed her hair and squeezed her again, recalling what Maree had told him about Amelia losing her parents too.

  ‘Yes, my beautiful girl.’ He slipped his hand down to her belly and pressed his palm against the soft flesh there. ‘And if we are truly blessed, we’ll have that family very, very soon.’

  She settled into him with a contented sigh and Grayson closed his eyes, letting the night steal over him.

  Their pack would be happy and safe, and best of all, Amelia would be by his side. His woman, his strength, his Alpha female.
