Alpha

by R Phoenix

  “Fetch,” Master told him, tossing the ball with what Caleb knew was only a fraction of his strength.

  This time, Caleb tore after it, wanting to impress Master and show him just what he’d learned, to see if that would… help. He wanted to see if he could get this all the time instead of just in fleeting moments here and there from someone else. He grabbed the ball with a playful growl, knowing both of the supes would be able to hear it from even across the yard.

  Then he bounded back, stopping in front of them. They stood shoulder to shoulder, Master slightly taller but a lot broader than Alpha — not that it seemed to matter. They both gave off a dominant air, making Caleb want to melt. He wasn’t quite sure which one he should go to. He sat, not dropping the ball, as he looked expectantly up at them.

  Alpha gave Master a long look, before offering him a small smile. “Do you want to see me play with your pup? Or did you want me to watch?”

  “I shall watch,” Master said, only a brief beat between those words and a purred out, “for now.”

  Caleb shivered, already anticipating what could come of that. He went to Alpha without direction, his tail wagging, but he didn’t drop the ball.

  Alpha reached for it, but Caleb avoided his fingers, making his alpha laugh. Caleb liked the sound, and he dodged him again.

  “Are you ready to be done with the ball, Pup?” Alpha asked.

  Caleb turned, dropping the ball on the ground out of reach, then turned back to look expectantly up at him. It was time for his reward. He’d earned it!

  Alpha gave a low chuckle that sent shivers through Caleb. As Alpha started to crouch down low, his smile dimmed, but the heat in his eyes said how much he wanted Caleb. “Come here, Pup. It’s time for your reward.”

  Caleb instantly rolled onto his back, panting heavily. He glanced at Master, a little warily, who was watching intently but without interrupting, then looked back up and whined, rocking his hips into the air.

  “Wanton little creature, isn’t he?” Master asked, and Caleb recognized an edge of amusement in his voice. “Go on, Pup,” he said when Caleb’s eyes flicked back to him. “Enjoy your reward, pet.”

  Alpha reached out and ran a finger down Caleb’s belly, stopping right before he reached Caleb’s cock. “I like wanton little creatures,” he told Master, as though Caleb wasn’t there at all — but he didn’t care, because he was being touched, and it was amazing. “I want him excited and needy all the time, that long erection swinging as he runs, and seeing just how many orgasms I can give him in a day. As long as he’s good that is. Isn’t that right, Pup? Only good pups get rewards.”

  As Alpha finally let his finger trace over Caleb’s cock, he let out a whimper and his hips rocked up begging for more. “See, isn’t that sexy? That’s what I love seeing, him thrusting up and humping at the air because he’s so turned on and needy. He’s beautiful like that.”

  His master hummed beneath his breath, but he didn’t say anything. Really, Caleb had a hard time caring what he thought right then, because Alpha finally let his hand wrap around Caleb’s cock. The slow strokes were maddening. Alpha kept up the sexy, teasing words as he took his time letting the pleasure wash over Caleb.

  “Such a pretty pup… Yes, look at that cock… Good pups get lots of attention, don’t they…”

  For some reason, the words didn’t bother him as much as they had before.

  Caleb barked, then whined, then looked pleadingly up at his alpha, like that would somehow tell him what response he wanted. That was all he cared about, ensuring he got the reward he deserved for being so good today.

  Never mind that in the back of his mind, he knew he hadn’t really been that good for the whole day, but what was the fun in being a perfect pet? Wouldn’t they get bored with him if he was?

  “I think the best reward for a good pup would be to give him exactly what he begged for.” Desire threaded its way through Alpha’s rough voice, pulling Caleb’s attention back to his face.

  Caleb thrust his hips up again, letting out a demanding little bark. He wanted to be touched, wanted to feel sated, wanted to feel…

  But the look in Alpha’s eyes dragged him back into a place that was neither pup nor human, but a heady mix of something in between, and he stared, enraptured. Need and something else Caleb couldn’t decipher shone in Alpha’s eyes, but it was the hand that was slowly moving up his thigh that truly had his attention. It got closer to his cock until Alpha was palming it. “But you were begging for something else earlier, Pup. You pressed your face into my cock and were begging to taste me. Is that what you want, Pup?”

  Oh yes.

  Oh, fuck yes.

  He barked, immediately rolling back over onto all fours. Master was there, and he peeked at the man, but there was only a look of — it didn’t matter what it was. He wasn’t making Caleb stop, wasn’t denying it.

  And Caleb wanted, so badly, to be a good pup for Alpha.

  He nudged Alpha’s hand with his, offering a slow, sloppy lick of his tongue along his hand. That wasn’t what he wanted to taste, and they both knew it — but there was a hand and at least a layer of clothing in between what he did want.

  Alpha gave a low chuckle and brought his free hand up to pet Caleb’s head. “Next time I’m going to make you work harder for it, Pup.”

  Caleb pressed his head into Alpha’s hand, loving the way the fingers massaged over him, but his gaze never moved from Alpha’s groin. Giving another tentative whine, Caleb leaned forward and licked the hand that was keeping him from what he wanted most of all.

  Alpha made him wait several long seconds, but eventually, the hand started to lift. “Good boy, Pup. Show me you can follow directions, and I’ll let you lick my cock.”

  Caleb’s tail thudded heavily against the ground. He was almost salivating at the idea of getting to run his tongue along the hard cock he could feel just beneath the pants only now — pants, boxers, he didn’t care. It was all cloth, and it was all going to come off so he could get his prize.

  He ground down, his own leaking cock rubbing against the grass beneath him, but it was an absent motion, something he did out of instinct more than actual awareness. He was more interested in what was in front of him.

  For now.

  Alpha’s hand slowly moved up to the dark fabric and started unfastening the belt that was wrapped around his waist. Caleb could only watch, excitement humming through him as he rocked his hips and watched intently.

  Soft whimpers and whines escaped his lips, and even though he recognized them as pleading in a way only a dog would, he didn’t fucking care. He just wanted it.

  The strong fingers started playing with the button, freeing it and slowly edging the zipper down at a pace that made Caleb’s heart start beating faster. When it was all the way down, Alpha shifted so his knees pressed into the ground, and finally shoved his clothing out of the way, freeing his cock.

  A noise sounded from right behind Alpha, but Caleb didn’t look, not when his prize was finally within reach. He barely waited, and while there was a part of him that wanted to envelop it with his mouth, to take it in as deep as he could go…

  It would be more fun to tease, to see. He almost resurfaced, but he resisted, wanting this too badly, and he licked along the head of Alpha’s cock, his tail only wagging more and more with every sloppy lap of his tongue.

  Now this was the prize he’d wanted earlier…

  Chapter Seven:

  Zain

  The wet heat of Caleb’s tongue as it licked around his cock was incredible, but the need on his face and the way his tail wagged, showing exactly how excited he was, somehow made it even hotter.

  He wasn’t going to even try to figure out why. Zain had basically decided that normal rules obviously didn't apply in the vamp’s house and he was just going to go with it like he’d gone for that kiss earlier. Encouraging Drac should’ve been the last thing he wanted, but something about the vamp pushed his buttons in just the right way.

 
An errant thought wanted to point out how weird his life had gone in about twelve hours, but he shoved it away. Zain just focused on the way Caleb’s tongue flicked over his cock and the pleading expression in the pup’s eyes.

  “Do you want more, Pup? Do you want to take my cock even deeper in your mouth?” Caleb whimpered and his tail sped up, but he didn’t move his mouth from Zain’s dick. Moving one hand to the back of Caleb’s head, Zain guided the pup closer. “Deep, Pup. That’s a good boy.”

  Caleb let Zain push him lower so his mouth slowly enveloped Zain’s cock. Moving carefully enough to let Caleb’s body adjust to his cock, Zain kept moving Caleb’s head closer to his body. Caleb was going to take all of Zain’s dick, even if they had to work for it.

  His pup wanted to be used and pushed and that’s what Zain was going to give him.

  “That’s right, Pup. My cock is going to sink all the way down that throat of yours. Keep taking it. That’s a good boy.” There was something fucked up about the sweet pet talk when Caleb was taking Zain’s dick, but he had to admit it was hot.

  He could feel the moment when his cock hit the back of Caleb’s throat, but the clenching of the muscles as Caleb gagged and tried to keep taking him deeper into his mouth had Zain moaning in pleasure. “That’s right, Pup. Take it all. You can do it for me.”

  Caleb was so lost in the pleasure and need that Zain didn’t even have to keep up the pressure on his head. Caleb’s own desire and passion kept pushing him to take more, and Zain loved every second of it.

  When Caleb’s lips were finally pressed flush against Zain’s groin and Zain could feel the tight heat of Caleb’s throat around him and see the frantic, needy look in Caleb’s eyes, he had to smile. “That’s a good pup. That’s how a good pup takes a cock. That’s right, wait as long as you can… Yes, swallow…”

  Finding the words was getting harder and harder, but Caleb seemed to love the dirty words. He could tell Liam was listening too intently for him to be tuning it out completely. Zain wasn’t sure what Liam liked, but he was willing to bet the sexy words to his pup were pushing at least a few of his buttons.

  He was right.

  It took longer than he’d thought, but he felt the press of the cool body against him more than he’d heard the vampire move.

  Silent.

  Deadly.

  It was a damn good thing that newbie werewolf or not, he had the advantage here. He might not be able to shift fast enough to stop him, but it would make his life hell. Aggie sure as fuck wouldn’t let him get away with killing one of her pack. She’d come in and rip him apart.

  Still, the edge of danger only enhanced the sensations racing through him as he tilted his head to the side, letting Liam brush his lips against his neck. He half-expected to feel fangs and half-wanted him to. After what he’d heard about vampire bites…

  But no, Zain wanted to be in control despite the slight gesture of submission. He had to prove to Caleb that he at least outranked him… and he had to see where exactly he stood with Liam. Leaning back against the cool strength of Liam’s body as Caleb continued to suck and lick at Zain’s cock, Zain turned his head and offered his mouth to the vampire.

  The feel of his strong lips taking Zain’s had him thrusting deeper into Caleb’s mouth. Moaning and trapped between Liam’s strength and Caleb’s tight suction, he knew he was going to come long before the vamp got naked if he took too much longer.

  As Liam took his mouth, Zain felt the vamp’s hands move down to his hips. Liam started slowly easing Zain’s pants over his ass, making him groan and arch his ass toward Liam’s groin. Liam’s mouth left his, and the vampire reached around to push Caleb away from his cock.

  Caleb let out a whine of protest, but he looked up at Liam. Whatever passed between them was enough to have him impatiently sitting back, though he licked his lips and head-butted Zain’s upper thigh.

  With Zain’s cock freed, Liam’s handling turned rougher. Shoving Zain’s pants down, Liam quickly stripped him down until Zain was left in just his shirt. Liam moved forward again and pressed his still-clothed body against Zain’s naked one. Grabbing a fistful of Caleb’s hair, he shoved the needy, excitable pup back to Zain’s dick.

  Caleb moaned as he took Zain all the way in one smooth motion initiated by the vampire, the vibrations sending even more pleasure through him.

  Zain didn’t bother to try to hide his gasp. While he wasn’t going to beg in words, the way his hips jerked back against Liam’s was a plea he didn’t think the vampire would miss.

  He didn’t.

  Liam drew back slightly, enough for Zain to miss the hard press of that muscle against his back, but he heard the sound of a button, of a zipper, then cloth being pushed down and out of the way.

  “Is this what you want, little mutt?” Liam asked, amusement and arousal in his voice in equal measure.

  Mutt. There was that word again.

  “If you want me, Drac, then I have to be more than just a mutt to you. Try again or put your pants back on. You want to fuck me, then you have to respect me.” Zain was willing to admit the vamp was sexy and the crazy level of kink was pulling him in, but he knew if he didn’t set up boundaries in that moment, Liam would forever think of him as that mutt… the slut who was beneath him in every way and not the equal he was fucking.

  Bending over and offering his ass up was one thing… Having the vamp constantly wanting to put Zain in his “place” was another.

  “And will you call me Drac?” Liam countered, the telltale sound of a cap on a bottle of what had to be lube coming from right behind him. Zain had seen lube in every room of the house and outside, and he’d been pleased to know the vampire kept it on hand. At least he seemed to take care of his pup in that way… which was promising.

  “Would honey or sweetie work better?”

  Liam’s sharp fangs brushed against his throat, but they didn’t pierce the skin. “And would you have me call you something like… pumpkin?”

  Caleb’s tongue stopped moving around Zain’s cock, leaving him little more than… well, a cock-warmer in that moment as the pup’s went eyes wide.

  Zain wanted to moan, but he forced his mind to keep focused on the words the vampire said and not the wicked promise in his tone. “I think I’m more of a baby or darlin’ if you’re going to slide your dick in my ass, snookums.”

  Liam chuckled, his slick finger sliding smoothly between Zain’s ass cheeks as though they weren’t insulting one another. “He submits to you,” he said, his voice dark, enticing. “Will you submit to me, little ‘wolf?”

  There was more in those words than a simple yes or no, more than something right then and right there. He almost wanted to protest that this was like bringing a U-Haul to a second date, but he choked on the words.

  He’d had to leave everything behind — what had remained of his family, his friends, everyone he’d known — when he’d been turned. He could never go back, and he knew it.

  As much as the pack welcomed him and made him feel like one of their own, he… wasn’t. And maybe it was that sense of loneliness he never really acknowledged that kept him from saying “no” without pause.

  The words bounced around in his head.

  Yes…

  No…

  Maybe…

  “For now, and not in everything but yes… For now.”

  He wanted a family, but he wasn’t willing to trade everything away to be someone’s plaything and fuck toy… A family, a partner, those were something else, but he had to know what the vampire was offering first. He looked down at Caleb, the not quite pup and not quite human man who was rapidly coming to be something more than just a job to Zain, and he knew he wouldn’t be able to walk away easily.

  “Call me Master,” Liam purred, a second finger sliding into him. “Just for now. See what it is I can offer you, and we shall negotiate anything… else later.”

  Like he knew. Like he could feel the indecision… and he probably could, in the way Zain’s heartbea
t escalated even more, in the way his body trembled just slightly… “Just when your dick’s in my ass, Drac. Until that point, there’s no way I’m calling you Master.”

  Well, one good thing about the brief segue into the realm of way too soon was that he wasn’t on the edge of coming anymore.

  “Call me Drac again,” Liam warned, voice turning dangerous and sending a thrill through Zain.

  This was a man — a vampire — who was a force to be reckoned with. He had taken a human and turned him into something different, something more. Not that Zain would ever let that happen to him, but the knowledge that he had created this special part-man, part-pup…

  “And you’ll what… spank me? Is that what you’re into as well? Such a kinky vamp.” Zain had to smile at Liam’s frustrated growl. He was so easy to wind up. “Sir, is that what you want, honey, for me to call you Sir?”

  Zain pushed back against the fingers teasing his hole and moved his hand so it joined Liam’s in Caleb’s hair. Liam better understand the message. He would submit… but they would take Caleb together. He wasn’t going to give up control of his pup… not even for the sexy vamp.

  Liam gave an especially rough thrust of his fingers, but it only made Zain moan and push back against him. “Suck,” Liam ordered, looking down at the pup on the ground, where he was still just holding Zain’s cock on his tongue. “No teeth, Pup,” he warned. “You will obey your superior.”

  “Alpha,” came the surprising response as Caleb drew back a little.

  Zain had thought Caleb was too deep into that headspace, and he wasn’t sure if it made it hotter to know that he was… Well, letting it happen sounded pretty horrible to him, but not just allowing it because he was too turned on to say no. He was… actively choosing it.

  “Pardon?” Liam asked sharply.

  “You’re my master,” Caleb said, his voice still rough but still very much firm in a way he wouldn’t have attributed to the pup. “He’s my alpha. And you’re his sir.”

  Something tightened in Zain’s chest as he heard the pup… his pup. Moving his fingers to pet Caleb’s head, he nodded. “Alpha. That’s right, Pup. Now show me how you want to please your alpha.”
