I jabbed the button to the first floor in the elevator and leaned my head into the wall. How could he lie to me like that? Was this something he planned with Brent? Get me to makeout with him, maybe even have s*x with him, to make Brent look like a victim?
Then it hit me. Oh no. I almost had s*x with him! He was pushing all the right buttons and I couldn't get enough of it. I was such an i***t.
The elevator stopped and the doors opened. I slowly stepped out and looked around. It really did look like a hotel lobby, complete with a revolving door at the entrance. The only things missing were the check-in counters.
Instead there were various tables, chairs, and couches scattered along the area. Hung on the far wall was a big, flat screen tv and people crowded around it. I took that as my cue to start tiptoeing toward the revolving door. A voice stopped me.
"What do you think you're doing?"
"Gah!" I whirled around and saw Natty standing behind me with a hand on her hip and her head c****d to the side. She didn't look too happy. Jake stood next to her and almost looked apologetic. "I was... Just.... Leaving..." I slumped my head and she scoffed.
"Girl, I don't get you. You meet a hot man-" Jake growled. "Oh hush you. He is hot. You're just better. Anyway, a hot man who protects you, kisses you, takes you to his home, and you're sneaking off! Why on Goddess's green Earth are you sneaking off?"
"He lied to me, Natty! He's Jonathan f*cking Wise! He's Brent's f*cking boss! The two of them probably planned this." I could feel tears threatening to pool.
"Oh, Lexxy." She sighed and straightened her posture, opening her arms. "Come here, you." I rushed to her arms and she kissed my forehead, patting my hair. "He's your mate, Lexxy. I know you don't fully understand, but if your bond is anything like mine and Jake's then he's already in love with you."
I pulled back and stared at her for what seemed like eternity. How could Tyler, or Jonathan, or whatever his name really was, actually love me when we'd just met last night? When I'd just gotten dumped, brutally, last night? I shook my head and leaned back into she shoulder.
"Let's go sit in the dining room and talk over some tea. We promised you explanations." With that she pulled me to the far end of the lobby area and through a nice door that led to a beautiful dining area. It had a long wooden table and matching chairs all around it, with one bigger chair at the far end. Jake and Natty took a seat closest to the bigger chair and patted the chair next to them for me to take a seat. I took a deep breath and prepared myself for the conversation to follow.

Stacey was riding me reverse cowgirl, squealing and moaning when I'd thrust up into her each time she'd slowed down. Suddenly a sharp, piercing pain shot through my head and chest. It couldn't be, could it? Could Lex have found someone else?
Shoving Stacey off me she face planted into the sheets in front of her and whirled around to glare at me. Looking into those chocolate eyes of hers made me forget the pain and hunger for more of her. I leaned forward to push her face back into the sheets and forced my c*ck back inside her.
"Brent, baby, yes!" Her screams were muffled but I didn't care. I trusted harder and harder into her until I felt myself twitch, releasing my load deep inside her and groaning. With a last whimper she collapsed onto the bed and I pulled out, happily watching as my juices leaked out of her.
To my surprise she turned around and pulled my softening c*ck into her mouth. One of my favorite things was when she would suck me clean and it looked like she was doing that today. In no time she had me hard again and I flipped her on her back, pulling her ankles to my shoulders, and plowed into her until I filled her a second time.
I knew proposing last night would get her to be more freaky and soon we were both spent. She tried to snuggle into my chest, but it made me once again aware of the nagging pain leftover from the sharp piercing from earlier. Maybe I needed to call Lex and demand answers.

Lexxy was sitting across from Jake and me, peeling gently at the skin on her lower lip and chewing on it periodically. We'd spent the last hour and a half explaining what we could about the supernatural world, mates, the ranking system in packs, how I follow Selene instead of the Goddess my coven has chosen; Jake thinks that's why I was blessed with him as my mate. Every now and then a pack member would run by and bow their heads toward Jake and me. I guess it was officially common knowledge that I was the new She-Beta.
"So..." Lexxy started and sighed. "By being a mate to Tyler, Jonathan, whatever. I'm a Luna? Which makes me, um, in charge?"
"Pretty much, yes. You outrank everyone here. Nats and I are your second in command as your Betas. Matthew is the Gamma, which is the third in command. He isn't mated, yet." Jake told her.
"He told me some of that before things got-" her cheeks flushed, "before things got a little heated." She looked away and started chewing harder on her lower lip.
Suddenly Lexxy's chair was shoved to the side by a group of four women. They all glared down at her as if she were a burden to them.
"Well excuse the f*ck out of you?" The one in the front of the group said. I couldn't deny she was pretty with her shoulder length black hair, nose piercing, hazel eyes, and distressed jean shorts with black camisole. Her attitude, however, not attractive at all. "This is the part where you apologize, Sweetheart."
"Brandy, that's not the way you treat guests." Jake began to stand but I cut him off.
"Oh Hell no. That's not the way you treat my best friend. Who the Hell do you think you are?" She looked at me and started to open her mouth when her eyes flicked down to my neck. Her eyes widened a little in fear.
"Beta. I'm, um, I'm so sorry. I didn't mean..." One of the girls nudged her and tilted her head to the side. "I'm sorry." She started to shuffle away when a growl echoed across the walls. Everyone froze as Tyler walked into the room, eyes black as night.
