Reds words echoed around my head 'never again'... I still haven't caught my breath, my underwear and pants chaffing from my little *accident*, I felt myself harden again at the thought of Reds hand down my pants. How can one woman have such an effect on me? The loud conversation from the kitchen brought me out of my own thoughts, the multiple overlapping voices a pleasant distraction. I nodded in greeting as they all looked at me in surprise "it's OK boys, he's had a tough night" Jeremy's hand clasped onto my shoulder, in quiet support. He removed it quickly sniffing lightly 'sinks that way, do not touch anything. I think I'm going to vomit' he looked me up and down knowingly, I didn't respond, instead obeying and washing my hands- disheartened to lose Reds smell from me even by a fraction. Goddess, my body yearned to be near her again.
The melodic ring of their doorbell caused the house to erupt like pandemonium, clearly they're being starved here I playfully thought. One of the other boys I had yet to speak to dove towards the door, opening it rapidly an audible *whoosh* of air worked its way through the house. Oddly, no smell of food followed, no light chit chat but angrily hushed tones hung close to the air, Jeremy shot me a panicked and pissed off look. He jutted his chin towards the door, both hands clenched so tight they were sheer white, together we all followed the hushed angry tones at the front door.
"Hey, relax. No need for the caverly" Greg stood at the door, his smirk ass casually leaning against the door frame, he looked damn near homeless. I wanted little more than to see the look on his face if he knew what had just happened between me and Red, to know I made her bite my chest to cover her screams
"You are not to come near this house, Greg. You know that" Jeremy pushed his way to the front of the large group, his hands still clenched and white with fury "leave" the vemon in his words dripped like blood down the walls.
"Just hear me out, boys. I know you don't like me, but I love your girl" he gave a little side smirk, he's so damn cocky I just want to knock his teeth out one by one "I want to make her my one and only, my mate" hearing him say those words so lightly, so blazenly about Red, a growl ripped fron my chest before I even sensed it growing. Reds pack stepped away from me, staring at me like I'd just announced my intent to marry Red. "YOU!" Greg stepped into the house, his feeble arms shaking as he attempted to look intimidating-try me child. He took another brazen step towards me, attempting to crack his neck, my whole body tensed waiting for him to hit me, to do anything just to give me a reason. Another step. Greg had barely made it 4feet infront of me when Jeremys hand thrust out of no where, wrapping around Greg's throat. Suddenly the boy became a ragdoll in Jeremys hand, his feet tiptoed on the hardwood floor as he was dragged backwards out the front door "I said leave!" Jeremy all but growled at the boy as he removed him from the premises.
Greg stumbled back, instinctively gripping his own throat as he took deep breaths to recover. "You want to stand up for the new kid, fine. I'll kill both of you!" Greg retook his footing, balling his fists, stalking towards us I welcomed his attempts. "WHAT THE HELL IS HAPPENING IN MY DAMN HOME!" Red stood at the top of the stairs, her hair damp curling slightly as it cascaded past her shoulders, she stood in nothing but a towel-goddess I felt my trousers tighten again at the sight of her bare legs, with her breasts barely covered. "Red, sweetie, I came to ask your friends something and they decided to be rude about it" Greg looked smug, trying again to walk into the house, he got no where before Jeremy threw his hand up. "Boy, if you don't mov..."
"Dont. You. Dare" Red seethed through her teeth, her elegant body swayed down the stairs her hips hypnotic as she moved. "You come into my home! My home!" Her teeth never unclenching "and you threaten my family! You threaten to put your hands on MY FAMILY!" It felt like the whole house shook as Red got to the bottom of the stairs, her intoxicating scent driving me insane as she passed by in that too short for others towel... "Baby, you don't understand. Let the boys talk it out, I'll come get you in a sec" there was no time, not a second, before Red crashed through him like a wrecking ball with a threatening aura. Greg didn't even make a sound he just flew back. "You do not speak, you come to my home. UNINVITED! You insult my family, you insult our guest, make threats, and talk down to me" her chest heaved through laboured breaths "leave, while you're still able to walk" cool air flowed freely through the house, ruffling Reds hair and towel. Goddess it's so difficult to focus when all I want to do is tear off her clothes, the strong scent of cinnamon and freshly cut grass circling the air clouding my thoughts.
"None of your little friends are safe, be a b***h you get treated as one" Greg tried to sound angry but his pain was clear, I felt smugness radiate from within me mixed with anger for the way he was speaking to Red- the idea of ripping his tongue out becoming more favorable with each passing moment.
Jeremy let out a sigh and turned his back on Greg, I glanced at him disappointed someone of his position wouldn't protect his Alpha. Gasping from behind me drew my attention back to Red, Greg was tearing at a hand on his throat, Reds face was calm but stern as she glared at him pure hate rolling off her in tsumani waves. That's why Jeremy looked away. "Let me be very, very clear" Red tightened her grip around his throat "you can leave my property on your own, or I can dismember and throw you off piece by damn piece" she released her grip and Greg crumpled onto the floor gasping for breath, he looked near broken his throat visibly bruising already. Red slammed the door, not even waiting for Greg to get up "where the hell is our food?" She looked at Jeremy as he took a phone out his pocket.
"On it boss" he punched in some numbers as Red headed back upstairs, that tantalising towel tormenting me "hello, hi, sorry we placed a large order earlier? Just wondering when it would arrive, hungry boys and all..." he sounded so soft. "Blake, go check on Red, foods here in 15" Jeremy returned pleasantries on the phone, as my mind whirled if I go upstairs what could happen? What if I piss her off and she kicks me out too? "Will you just go, she needs someone who listens to her for once" he tapped my shoulder comfortingly again, my eyebrow raise was anything but subtle "Blake, she needs comfort" he signed heavily "and I think most of us forget that, we never know if she's hurting or how to help. You have an in we don't" he squeezed my shoulder again "just, no repeats of earlier. I like my food to stay down" I felt my face brighten and I hung my head down to cover my blush. Jeremy headed through to the living room with the other boys, no doubt to calm their grumbling stomachs.
Taking a deep breath I knocked on Reds bedroom door, I could hear her bumbling around behind the door, I opened the door to find a surprisingly sparce room; a large bed, wardrobe, mirror and a small unit not the usual set up for an Alpha. "I don't recall inviting you in" She perched on the bed, her body looked small and fragile like the sheets might just swallow her whole. "I don't recall asking" I decided to be brave for 5 seconds and crossed the room standing just feet from Red, she slumped her shoulders forward with her head hung down. I took a knee in front of her, our eyes meeting, Reds chest rose as she took a deep breath in admiring my scent which made me beam with pride "I assume you're here for a reason" she stated matter of factly, goddess above how did she expect me to focus when she's sitting here in just an ever lowering towel.
Blake stared at me, his eyes concerned, but still hungry. I hate how excited I become just remembering our previous interaction. No, I need to focus on what we're going to do about Greg, not remembering... "Goddess, you need to stop that" Blake gripped the side of my bed, licking his lips as he lightly shook his head side to side "you are driving me crazy" I may have intentionally lowered the towel just a smidge to torture him. Ugh dammit! I have a hundred things I need to focus on, and this damn wolf isn't one of them.
''What do you want?'' This has to end now, trying to get my voice cold felt wrong even unnatural around Blake, demanding and fierce always came so naturally it was my default but now what do I do?
''I just came to see if you were ok, is that a crime?'' He grinned at me slightly, god I wanted to kiss him... Why didn't I kiss him...
''Well im fine"
"you're not" he retorted.
"even if I'm not, it's not your concern. Let's go eat before my boys destroy the kitchen, again" I tried to deflect, there are too many things on my mind, I'm way too hungry, and I'm way too distracted by his scent right now to focus. "OK, OK. It's been a long evening, lets go eat" Blake held his hand out for me to stand
"That is has. And you never did tell me why you turned up tonight, we can discuss over food" his entire body tensed up his hand withdrawing as he stood up not really waiting for me before striding out of the room. Another thing to worry about I suppose.
We reached the bottom of the stairs as the boys were piling food into the house, passing it down a line formation all the wah to the living room, good boys. We all dove into the living room, the boys digging through unopened containers "you guys are actually feral" I shook my head pulling a bag towards me, ripping it open very much ungracefully. Silence overtook the house as everyone dug into their amalgamation of curry, sides, rice and chips.
A picture perfect little family. Goddess, I need more moment like this in my life... Before I lose everything...
