Inevitable Calling

Capturing a snatcher

Victoria

Never in my life, have I ever experienced a heated wolf-fight between two females over my brother . When Cane had interrupted my moment with Owen, whom was about to mark me, I feared for what would happen when Theo comes home to discovering that Cordelia had come back.

When he did, Cordy was making herself at home and it was clear that he was furious. She had acted spoilt and flirted with him, putting her hands all over him. Lexi had come home from college and she witnessed Cordy kiss my brother, everyone gasped and she was not happy. I was pleased with how she reacted towards Cordy’s display because my brother is falling for her and he deserves happiness, everything he’s done for the family… protecting us and being there for us whenever we needed him, he’s never let anyone down so I believe he deserves a shot of happiness.

And Lexi is perfect for that: her soul is pure and she brings brightness whenever she’s around, she’s gorgeous and self restrained, she’s honest and compassionate, she’s deviant but also knows her limits. From what I’ve seen of Lexi she’s not like anyone else, I actually envy her a little.

But she’s already a part of the family and my family values respect and honour, and it’s my honour to show Lexi respect by defending her. So that’s why I smacked Cordy for coming back and ruining my brothers and his mates calling, Cordy is toxic and Lexi is so much better for him in so many ways.

But what happened next was unbelievable, Lexi had actually let her beast come out. It was a horror show, everyone was terrified and the boys were actually whimpering next to me.

Cordy challenged Lexi for Theo and Lexi was raging with anger, I felt power radiating of her; it wasn’t as strong as Cordy’s given that Lexi is a regular werewolf compared to Cordy but she was still brave enough to put up a fight.

And that’s what I respected Lexi for, she wasn’t ignoring her calling to my brother and was standing up to fight for him. She knew that she wasn’t as strong as Cordy but she still wasn’t going to go down without a fight.

I looked at my brother and I could see that he saw the same thing, I could see that he wanted to stop the fight before it even started but he wanted to give Lexi a chance to prove her loyalty towards him and prove her strength.

Lexi had put up a good fight despite Cordy beating her in the end, I was proud of her for how she fought; she was quick and resourceful. Her body wasn’t a match for Cordelia’s beast but she found ways to hurt her. I turned to my brother and he was ripping his clothes off in a rage, I knew he was about to shift into Ripper.

You know sh*ts serious when my brother willingly lets his beast comes out on the spot, he has a good restraint and good at controlling his beast. So that’s why everyone was terrified when Ripper came out.

When Cordy had Lexi’s neck in her grip and Lexi was struggling to break free, Theo had snarled dangerously and roared the place down. He slowly crawled towards Cordy and cowered her to the floor, pinned her down with his claws around her neck and she was whimpering.

Theo screamed at her to never challenge Lexi again or to come back, Cordy ran away howling and I know for a fact that she isn’t going to give up this easily. I mean, it wasn’t even a week since we last banished her from the Manor and she had the balls to come back. This is why I hate her, she’s disrespectful and can’t take no for an answer. Only this time, she isn’t going to try and win Theo… she’s going to get revenge for being rejected.

And when she does, I’m going to make sure that Cordelia gets exactly what she deserves. Im not going to let her destroy my brothers happiness just because she’s petty enough to not respect his choices.

So Theo had asked me to do something about his and Lexi’s clothes, I walked over to them and picked them off the floor. I carried them to the laundry basement and asked Bo to put them on wash.

I then went back to the pool room and made myself a drink, the boys were talking about what had happened.

“I can’t believe she had the cheek to come back and get in the way of Theo and his mate.” Cane had said, sighing.

“Yeah, but you gotta admit, it was pretty hot that Lexi stood up to her… even if she was getting defeated in the end.” Aaron then said.

Cameron huffs and joins in, “I wasn’t worried for Lexi at all, I was more scared for Cordelia because did you feel Theo’s rage? I’ve never seen him so angry in my life and he has had some right rampages in the past.”

I continued to sit crossed legged on a stool, with a drink in my hand and listening to the boys conversation. I looked over at Owen as I felt his eyes on me and he looked concerned, he could probably feel my distress.

I cleared my throat and decided to pick up where I left with Owen.

“So since that toxic beast invited herself into the Manor and interrupted us, do you want mark me now.” I casually blurted out, not giving a f*ck.

Everyone coughed and held their mouths as if they’ve heard something incredibly shocking, Owen’s face turned bright red and looked rather mortified.

“Wait, what?” Cane barked out.

I turn to him and flash him a smile, “Owen was going to mark me before you texted me.”

“Does Theo know about this?” He hissed at me.

I rolled my eyes at him, “No, but he’d accept anyway.”

“Are you sure?” Owen muttered, looking shy.

Bless him.

Out of nowhere, I kissed Owen on the lips and sparks ignited all around my body. The world was spinning and everything had gone silent even though I could still hear the boys howling in the background. His lips were soft and felt seriously good kissing mine, we kissed for a few moments and he pulled back.

“Can I mark you when Theo is around? I’d rather him be there when I do it.”

I softly smile at him, “Sure, Baby.”I winked at him and he went shy.

“Look at him going shy.” Cameron teased.

Owen growls, “Shut the f*ck up.”

We all laughed, I then sighed, “I’m going to get ready to patrol, meet me in the entryway.”

They nodded at me and I left the room towards my bedroom to change into some shorts in case I needed to shift, I put on a raincoat since it was raining and grabbed my umbrella. I went back downstairs and met Cane at the bottom with Aaron and Cameron.

“Where’s Owen?” I asked feeling a bit glum.

Aaron shrugs, “He’s in a guest room, I guess he’s gathering his thoughts together.” I frown and the boys laugh.

We spent an hour patrolling the streets and we came across a dark figure, he was trying to snatch a child from the garden. Cameron had run up to the figure and thwacked him in the head, he stumbled back and tried to hit Cameron but he dodged the attack. The child was whimpering so I went to her side and assured her that she was going to be okay.

The boys had grabbed the man and knocked him out, they then tied him up and put him in the van.

“Wait for me in the van, I’m going to speak to the little girls parents.”

I turned to the little girl and asked her to walk me to her door, she led me and walked inside, pulling me with her. She led me to the living room and her parents were startled when they saw me.

I held my hand up, “Please excuse my intrusion, are you aware of the child kidnapping?” I respectfully apologised for walking into their home.

The parents looked at each other and blinked at me.

“I-I’m sorry, kidnapping?” The mother obliviously asked me.

“Yes, Ma’am, there is an ongoing case investigating child abductors. My kind is working a private case on it alongside of the police but I believe that we’re more affective, your child was about to be taken but my cousin and our friends had stopped him.” I babbled on and the parents looked horrified.

“You haven’t heard about the city’s children getting taken?” I asked them when they looked at me blankly, not saying a word.

The father spoke, “Your Highness, we’ve just returned from a three week holiday today. We haven’t heard anything, we haven’t spoke to anyone.” There was fear in his eyes.

“I see, I’m sorry to hear that nobody had told you anything; warn you about the case for when you return to your home. Please let me explain to you what the case is about: two weeks ago children have been going missing, nobody knows why but it’s mainly children that are wolves and aged between nine-to-fourteen.

We believe that they are being taken for a certain project that requires vulnerable-easy-led children that have wolf strength to build. They do take human child’s too but we’ve come to the conclusion throughout our investigation that it’s mainly wolves.

“How old is your child please?”

“She’s eleven, Your Highness.” The mother said with a shaky voice.

“I’d advise you to be with your daughter 24/7 until the case has been solved. We are aiming to catch all the snatchers, bosses, etc and hopefully put an end to this horrific circumstance.

If your daughter needs fresh air or a little play at a park, etc, I’d advise you to do it before tea time or when it gets dark as that’s the time the kidnapping occurs.”

The lady walked closer towards me and she took my hand in hers, her face looked thankful.

“Thank you so much for preventing our baby girl from getting taken, we owe you our lives.”

I chuckled as the father nodded with his wife, “Please, you don’t have to owe us anything. My father is on the wolf council and we honour protecting those who cannot protect themselves. You just make sure that you’re with your daughter at all times and to spread the word to anyone who doesn’t know about this yet.”

I took my leaving and got in the van, “Let’s go, Cane.” I sighed at him.

He drove off and we arrived at the woods, the boys carried the unconscious snatcher to a basement where there are a few holding cells for wolves. Since there was no one to hold I had called Zachery, a cell guard, to guard the snatcher until Theo comes to talk to him; he was already there and we locked the snatcher in the cell.

“I think we should wait for Theo to come down before we interrogate him.” Cameron barked.

I nodded, “I agree, good work capturing a snatcher, fellas.” I beam at them and they grinned at each other.

“Let’s not interrupt him for now though, he’ll want some time with Lexi.” I said as I cleared my throat and the boys shifted their feet, looking smuggish.

I turned my heel and started to walk out of the cell, “Now, since we’ve made a development tonight, I’m going to see Owen.” The boys cheered and I rolled my eyes as I walked upstairs from the basement.

I knocked on the guest rooms door and Owen called out, “Come in.”

I opened the door and walked inside, I casually sauntered to the bed and laid next to him.

“Hey, you. Why are you here all alone?” I nudged his waist with my elbow and he let out a nervous chuckle.

“I felt embarrassed after your announcement.” He mumbled.

I moved closer to him and teased his mouth with mine, his heart started beating faster and we were both breathing heavily.

“You don’t have to be embarrassed, Boo, we’re just following our nature.” I winked at him.

He grabbed my chin and kissed me heavenly on the lips, I moan into him and he chuckles. I placed my body into his lap and I lifted my top off, his eyes widened when I flashed him my light-blue-laced bra and showed my cleavage. I smiled at his approval and snaked my hand into his hair as I continued to kiss him.

He grabs both of my legs and squeezed them as I bunch his shirt into my fists, I feel his d**k harden as I unbutton his pants. Because were both Lycans were both already compatible with each other so I didn’t hesitate on being rough with him, I pushed his head down to the pillow and lifted his top up; I kissed his perfectly shaped abs and he moaned as I continued to trace my mouth down his body.

We undressed each other and he pinned me under him as he wrapped my legs around his waist, the room was hot and sticky and we were panting through kisses. The kisses were sending waves of static pulsating through my body, Owen rammed his c**k through my hole as he pinned my arms above my head.

I loudly moaned with pleasure as he continued to ram himself in and out of me, I stared into his eyes as we rhythmically rubbed each other and I could see his inner wolf peeking at me. His eyes were beautiful and my wolf instantly felt connected and lustful towards him.

Owen was pumping me so f*****g good, I reached climax quite quickly and I flung my head back against the pillow. The room was filled with sexy moans and he had released inside me. I felt his c**k twitch as it left his tip, we were panting hard and I grabbed his chin to give him a final hot kiss.

“F*ck, Tori.” He growled as he rolls himself off me.

I peek over at him and he looked shy, “You’re still shy after we just f****d?” I joked and he buried his face into my neck, sniffing me.

“What can I say, you’re hot, confident and powerful.”

Smooth.

I giggled at him, “You’re hot, Hot-Stuff.”

He snickered into my neck and we spent the rest of the night talking, playing with each other’s fingers; eventually we both fell asleep.

So I slept with Owen in a guests room instead of my own, nice.

******

Lexi

I was sat on Theo’s lap in his office and we were browsing webs on his laptop, Bo had dropped off a couple of coffees for us both before sauntering out of the room. The things I was reading was shocking, more and more children are disappearing and even some parents are being knocked out just so that they can take them.

Theo’s phone had buzzed and he read the text.

“Sh*t.” He muttered and turned to me with a dark grin.

“Cane says they’ve captured a snatcher last night, he’s currently locked in a cell in a basement five minutes into the woods. Would you like to come, Poppet? I’ll warn you, it could get ugly.”

I nodded at him gleefully, he lifts my body off him to lead me out of the room. We trekked through the woods holding hands, eventually we got to a basement and walked down the stairs.

We walked through the tunnel and reached a cell with Cane, Cameron and Aaron standing inside the cell, along with a man sat in a chair with bruises all over his face. A guard was stood outside the cell, looking at me and Theo as we walked towards him.

Theo nods at him, “Morning, Zach.”

Zach nods back at him then looks at me again, “Morning, Master Theo.”

I looked at Theo, raising my brows and he c*cks a very arrogant smirk. He then continues to walk through the open cell dragging me a long with him, he stops by Canes’ side not letting go of my hand.

“Good work capturing a snatcher, boys.” He looks at them all before looking at the snatcher.

He then turns to Cane, “We caught him last night trying to snatch a kid, unfortunately for him he wasn’t very strong at fighting us. Zachery has been up all night guarding the cell, we didn’t ask the snatcher questions because we thought you’d have wanted to interrogate him.” Cane flashes his teeth at Theo and Theo smiles.

“Good thinking, look after my pet while I do so.”

He mocks and smirks but doesn’t look at me, I scoff at him and throw my arms together in a fold. The boys let out a short snicker before turning serious. Theo walks towards the snatcher and starts speaking to him.

“Who are you?” He asks, the snatcher spits in his face.

Theo growls and thwacks the snatcher in the face, “If you don’t start co operating I will do more than punch you in the face. Now I will ask you again, who are you?”

He folds his arms and the snatcher glares at him, “Jack.” Is all he said.

“Alright, Jack, tell me why you’re snatching children.”

Jack doesn’t answer and Theo darkens his eyes on him, “I don’t know if you’re just plain stupid or unaware of my authority but I’m royalty and can force you to speak if you do not.” Jack whimpers a little and the boys smirk.

“My boss needs them for something.” He finally admits.

“Need them for what exactly?” Theo hisses at Jack.

Jack hesitated and Theo stalks slowly around him, he then grabs his hair and rags his head back to stroke a vein with his claw. He was very good at controlling his beast and his claws, watching Theo work his mojo sends sensations around my body and he could feel it as he looked over at me and smirks.

He then turns back to Jack, “Tell me what the children are being taken for, or I’ll open a vein and let you bleed out.” His voice was dark and Jacks’ face went solemn.

He sounded like he was struggling to resist talking as he was choking, Theo tightened his grip on him and Jack couldn’t resist any longer.

“They’re being taken for two things: to build a underground warehouse and to produce illegal substances. Once the warehouse is being built the substances will be sold.” He blurted out and everyone in the cell let out a disgusted gasp.

Theo snarled, “Where is the warehouse being built?”

“That’s all I’m going to say, you’re going to have to kill me because my boss will kill me for even giving you my name!” Jack screamed.

Theo didn’t hesitate, he slashed his vein open and blood came splattering out. I jumped at his motion and Cane rubbed my arm, I looked at him and he smiled; I then looked back at Theo and he was staring at me.

He then turned to Aaron and Cameron. “Clean this up.”

They nodded at him and he walked back to me, “Walk with me, Buttercup.”

He grabs my hand and pulls me out of the cell towards upstairs. When we were outside it was still pouring it down, I breathed for air and Theo was stood looking awkward.

“I’m sorry you saw that, Muffin.” He then blurted out after a few minutes of silence.

I wrapped my arms around his waist and hugged him, “It’s okay, you did what you had to do.”

He sighs drastically, “I don’t ever want you to see my violent side.”

I tilted my head up to look at him, “I don’t care about seeing that side of you, it won’t change my feelings towards you.” I admitted.

He inhales, “Let’s go to the bar for a drink.”

He grabs my hand and we walk back to the Manor, we walked to the basement and I poured Theo a drink of bourbon while he sits on the sofa, looking exhausted and fed up.

I walked to him and sat down, I gave him his drink, “Here you go, Baby.” I say sweetly and wink at him.

His mouth turns into a smirk, “Finally calling me baby, huh?”

He then takes the drink, “Thanks, Sweetheart.” He kisses me on the cheek.

He then takes a sip and I blurt out, “So I think it’s time that you finally introduce yourself to my parents.”

He chokes on his drink and I burst out laughing, “Sh*t, I’ve been so busy with you and this case, I totally forgot, Muffin.”

He guzzles the rest of his drink and sets down the empty glass.

He then turns to me, “Do you want to go visit them now, Biscuit?”

I beam at him, “Yes!” I exclaim and he giggles at me.

Theo walked to his closet and dressed himself formally, he put on a light-grey suit and slid his feet inside leather-black-Oxford shoes and laced his neck with a silver chain. He straightened his tie and his eyes narrowed on me as he caught me watching him in the mirror, a smirk formed on his mouth and he stalked towards me.

He grabbed my ankles and pulled me across the bed and sat me up, he played with my hair while stroking my cheek.

“Your face seems to be healing quickly, Button. I’m afraid your father is going to attack me for letting you get hurt.”

There was humour in his voice but we both knew that my father wouldn’t really attack him, I know my father and he’s too humble to disrespect a royal like that, even if it is to defend my honour.

His eyes drifted down to my naked body and his smile grew, I could feel his d**k harden and a growl escaped his throat.

“You best get dressed, Snowflake, or I’ll be getting naked again and taking that sweet p***y of yours.”

He laughed at my dismay and I jumped off the bed, I scurried to the closet and he smacked my butt. I rooted through my clothes and picked out a pink-floral jumpsuit, I walked over to the drawers and slid on a light-pink bralette set with light-pink-laced Brazilian briefs then slipped into the jumpsuit.

I turned around to see Theo sitting on the bed watching me, his eyes were full of hunger.

“You don’t get tired of watching me, do you?” I teased and he chuckled.

He stalks towards me, “No, I never will because you’re the sexiest woman ever.” He purrs into my ear as he nibbles on my neck, I moan into his ear and he chuckles.

I was very attracted to Theo in his suits, I loved him in everything he wears but when he wears suits, I get all wet down there. And since I was on heat and becoming more confident, I tugged on his tie and clawed his jaw so I could give him a harsh kiss.

He growls in my mouth and I giggle at him, he slams me against the drawers and cups my neck. If I try to take control, he’ll get rough with to show who’s the boss. And I find that a massive turn on, he growls again when he sees that his power excites me.

“Don’t rile my beast up before we meet your parents, Lady, I don’t want them to feel my hunger for you..”

I giggle into his mouth and tug on his lip with my teeth, he tightens his grip on me and grunts as he deepens our teasing.

“Fine, have it your way. But don’t expect me to let you off lightly.”

He pulls himself off me and straightens his suit, I could feel my cheeks burning up and he was sweating too. I could feel that I succeeded in riling him up but he was softly smiling at me, I smiled knowing that he can’t help but give in to me.

He notices this and sighs, “I’m glad that you’re starting to see what you’re capable of and that you’re appealing, but eventually I won’t be holding back with my needs.” He says softly but his eyes were glowing and his beast was peeking through.

I softly smile at him, “I’m not going over the limits, I’m just teasing you enough to keep you on your toes.” I beam at him more as a smile tugs into a smirk.

“Oh, I’m sure you are, Muffin.”

He takes my hand and ushers me out of the bedroom, “Come on, Cupcake, let’s go visit your parents.”

We were both in his car and this time, he was the one driving. For the first time of knowing Theo and accepting my calling towards him, I’ve got a taste to how well Theo drives. I peeked over at him and watched him change gears and steer the wheel, etc, his face grew into a smirk as he could feel me watching him. He was arrogant with everything he does but with the right amount of arrogance, and that’s what attracts me to him, I find his confidence hot and he doesn’t go overboard with it.

“Why don’t you drive when you have a car?” I blurted out into the silence.

He laughs and looks at me, “You mean why do I pay for Wesley to drive me about in my own car?” There was humour in his voice.

I chuckle at him, “Yes.”

He inhaled a little, “I don’t know to be honest, I guess being a Prince wolf I need to focus on my emotions. You’ve seen that I’m moody most of the time and if I can’t concentrate on important stuff I can’t concentrate on driving. As you can see I’m an excellent driver.”

He stops to flash me a c*cky smile, “But I only drive my car for special occasions, if I’m in a rush or Wesley isn’t available I use my motorcycle. So really my car is Wesleys car technically but I own it.”

He looks back onto the road and I nod lightly at him, showing my acknowledgment. The air was quite thick because we were still feeling turned on by each other, we kept glancing at each other and I kept going shy, Theo kept chuckling at my shyness.

We then pulled closer to my parents street and his aura completely changed, he felt nervous and uneasy. I could tell that meeting my parents is a bigger step than me meeting his, I think this is because he wants my father to approve him; because my parents know that Theo is not only a Lycan but a Prince too, he’s concerned that my parents won’t feel safe with me being his mate.

We came to a stop and he takes a deep breath, “Nervous?” I tease him with a cheeky smile.

He scoffs but doesn’t answer, he rests his head on the wheel for a few moments while taking deep breaths. I could see that his hands were shaking, he lifts his head back up and looks at me. I beam a smile at him and I kiss him on his cheek.

I whisper in his ear, “Don’t be nervous, after all you’re royalty. You should be confident and proud.”

He rubs my cheek, “I am proud, I’m proud to introduce myself to your parents and I’m proud to announce that I’ve chosen you as my mate. It’s not even a choice, it’s in my bones. I just don’t want your parents to be disgusted when they see your face.” He sighs.

I smile at him, “They won’t be angry at you or disappointed to see that I have cuts on my face, they will understand that you wanted to give me a chance to fight what is mine. They are the same as your parents, only difference is; my parents don’t have as much power.”

I reassured him and we gave each other a little peck before stepping out of the car, I walked him to my door with his hand in mine; I squeezed it as I opened the door and ushered him inside.
