The Broken Alpha

Savannah (5)

Jason held me close as his hands roamed up and down my body, his tongue playing with my n*****s as I moaned aloud and called out his name. He lifts his head, his eyes sparkling as he looks at me before kissing his way down my body. When he gets between my legs, my breath hitches and I try to stop him from doing what he is about to do.

“Let me show you how I love you” Jason said

“Jason...please” I call out

His deft fingers open me slowly and he leaned forward, smirking at me, lowering his head closer and closer...his tongue out as he got ready to take the taste of me and -

“I swear Anna, if you don’t get up right now; I am going to tell him to come here and finish off whatever your actually dreaming about!” I heard Tara’s voice

My eyes fly wide open and gasp when I see Tara standing beside my bed in her night clothes as she’s looking down on me with frustration, her hair still in its ponytail. I sit up and blush furiously as I realised I had had a dream about Jason and I….being intimate and have clearly been vocal out loud.

“I…...I’m sorry” I stammered, embarrassed

“I wonder what he was doing for you to call out to him like that” Tara said before sitting on the bed with me “Here”

She passed me a bottle of water which I took gratefully and took a long drink, the cold water waking me up a little. Closing the lid I looked at her in question

“That’s the third time you moaned his name like that. I was actually gonna pour the water on you if you didn’t wake up. I went to the vending machine and got this cold bottle and you didn’t even know I left the room” Tara said in amusement

“You did?” I asked, surprised

“Yea! This place is freaky at night you know. There’s hardly anyone around and it’s so quiet. Even on the vending level” Tara said with a shudder

“I’m sorry” I say again, blushing further “ i didn’t realise...I-”

“I know. Deedee said this would happen. It’s because you’ve found him so young and until you both have s*x, the dreams will keep visiting you” Tara cut in

“How do you know that?” I asked, surprised

“Helloooo! It’s almost 5am. Like I said, this kept happening. I called Deedee and asked. When you guy’s find your Tanniem, as it’s later in life; the dreams are about combining your powers; so the dreams are non-s****l. But with you being so young…. I don’t know. Deedee was mumbling a lot about prophecy, black magic and a whole lot of other stuff before she said for you it was s****l and not about combining powers” Tara shrugged her shoulders

I looked at her, shocked. There was something going on which I felt Deedee wasn’t telling me. She never mumbles. She’s the high witch for god’s sake! If she mumbled, and it was the wrong kind...and incorrect words or letters combined together, bad things could happen. I push the covers away from me and I stand up as Tara moves to her own bed. I wince and apologise about waking her up as I have never done this in my life before and move to the bathroom. I stand in front of the mirror and throw some water on my face, trying to clear the image of Jason and his firm abs from my mind. His chiseled jaw had felt so nice when his stubble had rubbed against my inner thigh -

Stop! I told myself off. It wasn’t real! Jeez! I was acting like a s*x maniac.

Splashing more water on myself, and embarrassed at my wet sticky self, I quickly jump in for a body shower; turning on the cold water to calm my heated body down. Using the hotel body gel, I thoroughly cleaned myself, my fingers almost lingering between my folds as the temptation to take care of my needs arose. I knew I could make myself c*m and it would help ease the tension, but then I would feel cold. He wouldn’t be there to hold me as I wanted. I was a cuddler. I wanted the aftermath of body contact.

Just like that, I stopped being aroused and I sighed both in frustration and relief. Finishing my body shower, I used one of the bath towels the hotel provided and patted myself dry before wrapping the towel around me. When I stepped out and went to my suitcase, I turned around to apologise once again to Tara….only to laugh. She was back in her bed….asleep like the dead. That girl had a knack for being able to knock out at a drop of a hat and I’m sure me keeping her up most of the night didn’t help.

Finding my last fresh pair of underpants, I pulled it out and placed it beside my suitcase. When I couldn’t find clean pajamas, I sighed and took one of my normal t-shirts out and wore it. Had we stayed longer, we were going to get our clothes washed at the hotel, but since we would be leaving in a few hours, there hadn’t been any point when we had come back to the hotel. Instead, we had both re-packed our bags and cleaned up our stuff so nothing was left behind. By the time we were done, it had been almost dinner time and we had decided to order in room service. Jason had actually messaged me to tell me he had hired a car and everything was set, and I had desperately wanted to see him for dinner….have him be my dinner. But I had pinched myself not to act so eager.

By the time Tara and I had watched a movie and had gone downstairs to the hotel shop to buy snacks and ice-cream, we were too tired to go out and had instead spent a lazy night in. A calm, quiet night without worry of feeling like someone was after us or of being on guard. Maybe whoever had been chasing us had seen Jason and saw him with us so they felt like they couldn’t approach us and stopped. If so, bot have we been missing this feeling for the last three years! I wish I had met him long before now and he could have kept us safe and no doubt by now, he and I would have -

Stop! Jeez! I really need to calm down

I get into bed and turn on the air con a little, hoping the chilling air will help me to cool off. I really hope I don’t have another dream. Closing my eyes, I started to drift off, the cooling air hitting my legs a little that were poking out of the covers and I shuddered a little. As my eyes closed, I saw Jason’s face before mine and I smiled as peace settled me to sleep.

                           -----------------------------------------------------------------

“Damn! I’m stuffed!” Jason said

I lifted my left eyebrow at him and laughed. Tara snorted inelegantly as she teased him

“About time Jason!” Tara said “Not only did you have the breakfast buffet but you also ordered a side of chips, like four coffees, three soft drinks and a dessert….which the patisserie doesn’t even offer until after lunch”

Jason laughed out loud, a gruff pleasant sound that had my heart kick up a beat. I shifted in my seat as I tried to think about something else to not be turned on.

“Hey, don’t get pissy with me just because you decided to have a breakfast granola when there had been ample of food available” Jason teased Tara “Breakfast it the most import meal of the day”

“If I eat like that, i’d be as big as a house!” Tara complained

“Meat is gonna on a woman!” Jason sighed out “It’s you lot who have the wrong idea and think we want skin and bones”

Tara opened her mouth to retaliate when the waitress came over to pick up the last of our dishes. I quickly took my last sip of tea and gave her the empty cup back and just as Tara and I reached for our purses, the waitress came back with a card. When Jason paid again, Tara and I both protested and tried to give him money, he had looked annoyed before he pushed our money back at us. He stood up and we walked out of the cafe and stood in the foyer again

“Last bathroom trip. The car’s all set and I’ll quickly check to make sure there is nothing outstanding with reception. So, I’ll meet you guys back here in about five minutes?” Jason asked

Tara and I nodded and walked off to the bathroom as Jason made his way to reception. Once we were in, we hurried inside and did our business as my heart kept fluttering, thinking about being so close to Jason in one car. After flushing the toilet and coming out to wash our hands, Tara and I called Deedee who had to spell us again so we stayed looking the same as we drove home. There was no way we could explain how our appearance changed halfway through the journey without exposing who and what we were. After Deedee was done, I quickly reapplied my pink lip gloss, wondering what Jason was up to.

“You’ve got it bad” Tara chuckled

“What?” I asked

“You. You’re primping yourself for him which you never do for any guys and your thinking about him so hard; i can practically hear it”

“Shut up” I blush

As she laughed and dried her hands, I looked in the mirror one more time and wished Jason had seen me as I really was. Would he still find me attractive when the blonde hair goes and this body goes back to being mine? Would he still want me? I bite my bottom lip in worry but Tara grabs me and we both leave the bathroom. We get to the middle of the foyer, just beside the cafe just as Jason also comes out of the gentleman’s bathroom. He smiled at us, his eyes sparkling before he walked us in the opposite direction and left through the side door. As we step out into the sunshine, I pull my sunglasses down and as one, we walk over to the black land rover that Jason had hired.

When we had arrived this morning before breakfast and he had shown us the car, we had been surprised but excited. Especially when we had seen the mod cons and how comfortable it was. I had worried about the cost but Jason insisted it was on him. After all, he was a big guy and he couldn’t do small cars when he was driving otherwise he would get a cramp.

“Baggsy backs” Tara said playfully as Jason unlocked the car

“You sure?” Jason asked even though he was only looking at me

“Hell yes! I plan to stretch out and sleep in comfort with this baby” Tara laughed before taking out her pillow from the boot of the car and walking towards the back seats

“Tara” I whispered to her as she brushed by me

“Go have fun” Tara whispered back

I swallow past the golf ball that is suddenly in my mouth and I smile before getting in at the front passenger seat. As I sit in, I see Jason looking at me, one hand on the steering wheel and the other held out to pull me in. I take his hand and settle in properly before buckling myself in. Jason smiles at me and I feel it all the way to my heart, my body humming in delight. He puts on his sunglasses before setting the air con and starting the car, leaving the hotel as we start the final journey home.

                    -------------------------------------------------------------------------

Jason

I cranked up the air con, hoping the girls wouldn’t complain that it was too cold. I’ve been hard since last night from the kiss and had to take care of myself in the shower this morning as I thought about Anna being in the car with me. When I had gone to the bathroom after breakfast, my c**k had strained against my jeans; Tolken telling me to take her. To grab her and plunge in...fuck! Then throughout breakfast, I kept smelling her scent. It was sweet and all I wanted to do was sink my teeth in her. When she had sat in front with me, both my wolf and I couldn’t have been happier. She blushed when I helped pull her in so she settled properly and I swear, something cracked in my heart.

I try not to think like that when she’s around but it’s so hard. Sometimes I forget that I am not worthy to have a family. I forget that my selfish action is what killed them. Anna blushes and I want to know how far it goes. When her hair falls around her face, I want to sweep it back and feel the strands in my hand and when she sighs….. I want to be the one swallowing the sound as my c**k takes her and make these sound come out of her

“Any chance of a starbucks?” I hear Tara ask

I looked at Tara through the rear view mirror and nodded. We had been driving for almost two hours with another two and a bit to go.

“I’m surprised you’re awake. You’ve been sleeping like the dead. You both have” I say

“Anna’s sleep?” She ask in surprise

“Yeah. You knocked out and not long after, Anna did” I said

That had been frustrating. I had hoped to speak to Anna. About what, I don’t know. I just like hearing the sound of her voice. When I spotted a service station coming up with starbucks in it, I pulled over onto that road and drove until the service stop was in front of us. When Anna and Tara both left the car, I quickly took a bathroom break before going to find them. To my surprise, Anna handed me a black coffee cup with some sugar packets, her smile soft and welcoming. I take the cup from her, our fingers brushing against each other and once again; i feel the electric vibes up and down my arms.

Without making a choice, I took Anna’s hands in mine and walked with her to one of the tables, sitting down beside her before taking her hand again. Anna blushed and drank her tea.

“Thanks” I say, indicating to the cup

“The least I can do. Are you ok driving or do you want to rest?” Anna asked me with concern

My heart beats faster. She cares that I am tired. She cares that I need rest. Often mates- stop! She’s not my mate! Stop Tolken! I tell my wolf when he starts talking of mates again

“Nah, it’s fine. Besides it only about a four hour drive” I say with a gentle smile

“Not once you get to the city, and even then; we live further out so” Anna shrugged

“It’s fine. Don’t worry. The satnav says it’s about another two hours and forty minutes. That’s not that long. Trust me….Long is driving from London up to scotland, right at the edge. Nine hours! Now that’s what I call long” I laughed

“Nine!” Anna said, shocked “Why didn’t you just take a flight instead?”

“I was with a few people so it was easier to drive” I said before clearing my throat, trying to change the subject “So, how was the sleep?”

“Sorry” Anna said ducking her head “I guess all that rich breakfast and the car ride...it’s such a comfortable car with great aircon”

“It is” I said, sure I was missing something when she blushed harder

“Hhhhmmmm. I so needed this” Tara said as she sat down

“Your a coffee fiend huh” I asked her with a chuckle

“At times. Right now this frap is perfect blend of coffee s**t and coolness” Tara sighed before taking a sip.

“Well you both look more awake that’s for sure” I say

“Yea blame Anna for that with her mo-” Tara cut off with a wince

“Anna? Why?” I asked when I turned to look at her

Anna blushed harder than ever, the colour so dark that I swore she wore that blushing thing that girls wear for makeup Tara mumbled something and I could tell something had happened that I wasn’t aware of. Seeing how uncomfortable Anna was, my heart broke as she tried to find a way to speak without telling me what was going on. Seeing her tremble, my mate instinct took over and I pulled her fingers and clasped her hand with mine. She looked surprised when she saw I did that and smiled a genuine smile at me before taking a deep breath

“I uh...couldn’t really sleep properly because I was too warm” Anna said quietly

“Oh” I replied “Didn’t you guys have air con?”

“Yea...but it wasn’t very good” Anna said, ducking her head down a little

She was lying or at least hiding something from me. She was embarrassed but I couldn’t understand why. Tolken wasn’t growling in my head, but whimpering; as if sad that she was embarrassed because of us.

“Soooo” I said, trying to break the ice “Are you guy’s excited to go home?”

“Yea, I got some nice stuff for Deedee at one of the markets in Cork and she has a thing about collecting shells. Really intricate ones”

“Who’s Deedee? A sister?” I asked her

“Oh, no...erm...she’s my mum” Anna said as she laughed

“You call your mum by her name?” I asked surprised “My mum would have kicked my arse if i’d done that...and yes, even at this age” I chuckled sadly

“Oh well… I don’t always call her that. It’s just….well at times…” Anna took a deep breath, her eyes on my face before moving them away “I’m adopted. Sometimes I call her mum, sometimes Deedee” She finished in a rush

“Your adopted?” I asked, shock waves rolling inside of me

Anna nodded, her eyes downcast as if embarrassed. I hurt, thinking of her feeling unwanted and alone, so unsure if she should call her adoptive mother by her name or the word mum. How she must be hurting. But another part of me admitted something….if she was adopted, could she be Celine? Could she have made herself look younger? I mean, wasn’t that what black magic was about? Being able to do the impossible? But what if she wasn’t Celine? Then who was she? Why did she smell like Celine? Was this Deedee person connected to Celine?

I squeezed Anna’s hand harder and she looked at me with a sad smile. I smile harder, bring her fingers to my lips and place a kiss there, wanting to comfort her. When her eyes widen and she takes shallow deep breaths, I wonder if there’s somewhere I can take her. Somewhere I can have a few minutes-

“Wow, intense. Erm...are we still driving to belfast today?”

I break eye contact with Anna and see a grinning Tara looking at us. I swallow the last of my coffee and nod, looking at Anna who shakes her empty tea cup. We all get up and Tara continues to slurp on her frap and throws it away just before we get into the car. As I start the car, Tara settles into sleep again, putting on her headphones and I turn to look at Anna before looking back at the road

“I lost my parents when I was fourteen” I tell her quietly

“You did?” Anna asks with a gasp “How? I mean you don’t-”

“They were killed” I cut in “There’s more to the story, but I just wanted you to know that...after you telling me about Deedee”

“Thank you” Anna whispered “I’m sorry about your parents”

I cleared my throat and nodded, taking the appropriate exits the sat nav suggested. Suddenly, I feel my right hand being squeezed and I quickly look down; seeing that it was Anna who had now reached for me, her hands wrapped around mine in comfort. A lump formed in my throat at her consideration and my eyes feel prickly. I turn to glance at her, and smile when I see her worried expression.

“I’m ok” I say gently

“You don’t have to be. I wish i could do something...I’m...sorry” Anna said again

“Why are you sorry?” I asked “It was a long time ago”

“I know but…..I just am” Anna said with a haunted look in her eyes

“Yea me too” I say gruffly

For the remainder of the journey, while Tara slept, Anna and I held hands and spoke. I was thankful that I had gotten an automatic car that meant I could keep holding Anna’s hand. While we spoke, my wolf basked in her attention, his contentment so great that he stayed quiet and relaxed after so many years. I wanted to hold her close to me and keep her safe but I also knew that it was illogical. I was only following her to where Celine was. I couldn’t let her distract me

Before long, not only were we in Belfast, but after another twenty minutes, I was driving through a wooded area on what looked like a private road. Anna guided me as she explained where they lived

“So, Deedee has a…. Like a health resort. Soooo we live in this big house, which is at the back of this hotel. There’s a few cabins dotted around. Everyone living there or around there are those that work for her” Anna explained

“Really?” I asked, surprised

“Yea. We are usually really busy between March and August because people come for nature trails, walks, yoga and to get away from the city. From technology” Anna said

“What about the rest of the times?” I asked

“We have stragglers. Winter times are a hit and a miss as we do offer glamping cabins but, it really depends on the people who come” Anna said animatedly “But when there’s snow and the trees capture it in their branches just so….it’s like a postcard. It’s stunning”

“Wow. Ok. I love that kinda thing” I say “I can’t wait to see this place”

“Well, take the next right. You only have about a eight minute drive and we should be there” Anna said

I nod and look out for the turning and when I spot it, I turn into it. The road is obviously a private one since I see nothing but wooded area and the sign for “Ohanna”

“Ohanna?” I ask Anna

“It means family. Deedee wanted to appeal to both family and singles. Also, everyone who works and lives here are like one family” Anna explained with a smile

Family. That word. I remember my parents, my pack….all those who were slaughtered that night. But then I remember my other family. Tasha and my pup. The family that I wasn't worthy of keeping. The one I killed. I swallow before smiling and...true to her words, the road suddenly opened up to a large clearing. On the left was a large car park with some cars parked inside. On the right, five golf carts were parked beside a large hotel that was in the middle of the two. There were some people around, children laughing as parents looked at maps and spoke to a rep from the hotel who had a uniform on.

Anna guided me to another private side road behind the car park and she buzzed the button on the box, speaking to someone that she was home. The barrier lifted and I drove around with her instruction, telling me where to go. I parked at the side of a large wooden cabin and I was impressed. It wasn’t a small cabin. It was a two story house with impressive craftsmanship and architecture that had used the natural elements around it to keep in with the scenery around it. Tara yawned and hopped out of the car as Anna and I also got out. I opened the boot and helped the girls with their cases and bags, taking them out

“Savannah” I hear someone call out

Tolken started to growl, his nails clicking as he walked around in my head. I try to calm my wolf, unsure what has got him so riled up. I look around, trying to see if I can spot any danger but apart from an older lady at the door; I can’t see anyone.

“Deedee” Tara said as she ran to her for a hug “It’s so good to see you!”

“And you my child. I know that your parents are keen to look at you too” Deedee said

“Are they at work?” Tara asked

“Yes. But tno to worry, they said they will pick you up from here later tonight” I hear Deedee say.

I close and lock up the car, Picking up the rest of Anna’s bags as she walks with her smaller case and hugs the lady, her shout of happiness loud.

“Oh Savannah” Deedee said “I’ve missed you. Look at you!”

“I missed you too. I have so much to tell you!” Anna said excitedly.

As Anna starts to speak, Tara walks inside of the open door. Deedee smiled at Anna indulgently and I walked up behind her, waiting for Anna to introduce me. Suddenly, time slows down and the noise of the forest dulls as Deedee turns her eyes to me without moving her head. Then I hear her in my head; a soft, welcoming voice

Welcome Alpha Jason, Son of Lauclan and Rose. You were expected young alpha.

I couldn’t breath, I couldn’t move as shock stiffened my body. My breathing loud in the otherwise quiet, still setting. I had just been addressed by a witch! And not just any witch…..A High Witch!

A powerful witch EXACTLLY like Celine!
