Talons

Chapter 63: The Cheaters

Rhea’s POV

I stare at my brother who is attempting to blackmail me, but Raven and I have already come up with a story that will protect us both.

I will tell our parents that I moved out because Raven and I got into a fight that resulted in her wolf attacking me; the truth, and she will say that in her lonely wait for Dolton, she allowed a human into her heart; unprovable.

“Raven couldn’t stop Gigi from attacking me. I had to leave to stay safe.” My brother’s eyes widened at my words.

“Why didn’t you say anything?”

“Would you have believed me?” I retort. “I’m not a member of your pack. She wasn’t well and she could have said anything.” My brother's face takes on a hurt expression and he steps closer to me, but I step back again.

“B, please. I should have spoken to you first but I’m under a lot of pressure right now. There are things you don't know, things I can’t tell you, and having your humans show up at the territory hasn’t helped.” It’s my turn to look shocked. I don't know what I thought, but I certainly did not think that Braylen would have shown up at my brother's doorstep. “B, they asked if they could adopt you. Can you imagine if mommy had heard that?”

Lark’s POV

It’s the lowest blow I can think of, but I keep using our mother against my little sister. I don’t want her to distance herself from the pack any further because then all the extra hoops I’ve been making everyone jump through would be useless.

I love Baby B, and I only want the best for her. That’s why I was too scared to hear the truth from her. If she had confessed to attacking one of my pack members, I wouldn’t have been able to defend her in front of the council, but now that I know the truth, both boys who conspired against my sister have gotten their judgement.

Lying to an alpha is not an offense punishable by death, and physical violence against omegas is looked down upon. Typically, our pack does not beat on or torture members for being idiots, but in this case, I didn’t do anything. I let the female omegas who were terrified of the teen serve their own justice after weakening him a little.

“Lark, I need time. I feel like you should have known me better,” My sister says, and Luke makes a noise that gets her to target him as well. “You too Luke; no matter what that boy said, the truth is that you both didn’t trust me.” B’s eyes well up and I use the opportunity to pull her into a hug.

I feel like the crappiest brother in the world, and I’m sure Luke is feeling the same. He wasn’t completely convinced of B’s guilt, but the fact that she had gone out to the field that she knew had caused trouble for the pack made her look suspicious to everyone.

Colton’s POV

Holly wants to go out, and my father has asked me to spare no expense. Carter and Mandy are also coming, and when Jessica found out, she forced herself to tag along as well.

I don’t know what her problem is, but she is jealous of my cousin. The two of them have already exchanged very colorful words, which only got worse when Mandy got involved, telling Jessica that she was sick.

Jessica and Mandy have never been friendly.

Carter and I once took them on a double date, and they somehow started arguing about our d*cks. I have never heard such graphic detailed descriptions of a c*ck before, and to be quite honest, I never want to again.

Mandy is good with words, so at a certain point she was outwitting Jessica, who barely graduated from high school, with vocabulary that even I had to look up.

I don’t care which one of us is bigger, because we have never shared a woman, but the way Mandy described her mate definitely put me and Jessica to shame.

We get to the Rec, which is a werewolf clubhouse owned by some anonymous alpha, and Holly immediately hits the dance floor, pulling Mandy with her. Carter is livid, so I hand him my father’s card and tell him that he can drink all he wants.

“Mandy loves Drunk D,” he says, and I laugh at my beta, who doesn’t do anything without thinking of Mandy first.

A shorter, thick chick walks by me, and my eyes are immediately drawn to her. I can tell she is from a city pack based on her lack of muscle tone, but lately, I’ve been drawn to those kinds of girls.

I never really had a type, but the feeling of B’s breast pressed against my wolf has taught me that I’m missing a lot by sticking to the tall and slim type.

I turn to face Jessica, who is already annoyed by the way I just eye f*cked the girl who passed us. She storms away and I make my way to where I saw the girl go. I don’t find her, but I find someone just as good, and she is clearly ready for whatever I give her.

Ten minutes later, I’ve got the girl bent over in a bathroom stall, wishing she had more ass. Turns out, she was wearing butt pads, and while she doesn’t look bad, she isn’t giving me that feeling I’m looking for.

I get bored, and pull out of the chick, flushing the condom before she can even stand up straight.

“Are you already done?” she asks, and I shrug.

“I got bored,” I say, moving to where the sink is so I can wipe some of her off my sack. The girl rolls her eyes, and storms out of the restroom making me chuckle. She is lucky I didn’t tell the truth of how loose she was.

I step out of the restroom, and Jessica is standing in front of the doors looking as though her entire world is about to come crashing down. I study her face and I know that whatever happened is worse than me screwing another girl.

“What’s wrong?” I ask, hoping she won’t cry.

“Can we leave? I don’t want to be here anymore.” I roll my eyes and link Carter that Jessica and I will be taking a taxi back. I can see that he has managed to find friendship in Holly because he and Mandy are cheering her on as she downs several consecutive shots.

We’re driven close enough to the pack grounds to shift and run the rest of the way. Taxis aren't allowed on pack property, especially when they are operated by non-alliance members or humans.

Jessica follows me all the way to my room, and I roll my eyes at her. I haven’t been able to have decent s*x with her, or really anyone else since Mandy and Carter’s reception, but she seems eager to please, so I sit on the couch and tell her to ride me.

I barely have time to put a condom on before she starts jumping up and down on my stick. I study her face and body, realizing that this is the first time I have let a girl get on top, and that she is absolutely terrible at it.

Once again, my wolf has retreated the minute I entered a woman, and I really can’t understand what his problem is. When we had been in the field with B, the girl was literally covered in dirt and blood, and we still became aroused, so I’m not understanding why Jessica isn’t working for him now.

I close my eyes and imagine the shape of B’s breast as she laid back in the dirt, gazing at the sky. I’m not doing it on purpose, but I start to feel the familiar tingle that has been escaping me. I suddenly realize that my wolf and I are extremely bored.

We are tired of the standard, and we want something different; so much so that even B is doing it for us. I flip Jessica over and let my imagination run wild. I start thinking of giant breasts, round asses and just like that, I c*m.

Jessica doesn’t look good, and I know I was a little rough with her, so after putting my jeans back on, I helped her into the room that has become hers. I lay her on her bed, and she reaches out and grabs my arm, just as I’m about to leave.

“Colt, what if I find my mate before you're ready to take me seriously?” She asks, and the question hits me harder than I expected it to. I hadn’t considered the idea of Jessica finding her mate, but if she does, I guess I would be happy for her.

“I would support whatever decision you make,” I say, trying to remain neutral. Jessica is a nice girl, annoying as f*ck, but nice, and she deserves to be treated better then how I treat her.

At the same time, I know for a fact that Gale will never do for me what Jessica does, she just isn’t a serving kind of girl.

I have Jessica wrapped around my finger like a yo-yo string, and whenever I want her, I call her, whenever I'm bored of her, I push her away. If I’m in a bad mood I treat her like crap, if I’m in a good mood, I treat her well.

Gale doesn’t even care when I’m upset, and she once offered to find my girlfriend. She’ll f*ck me, but she won’t try to improve my mood.

“Will you miss me at all?” Jessica whispers, and I get the sinking feeling that she is not speaking in hypotheticals.

“Jess, did you meet your mate today?” I ask, looking deep into the woman's eyes. I let a small amount of command into my tone, and after trying to fight it for a little, she nods slowly.

I lost it on the woman. I started to scream so loud that she hid in a corner. I’m disgusted by her actions, not because she didn’t tell me, but because she had s*x with me afterward. I can only imagine what her mate was feeling and if he survives, she will no doubt be rejected by the man.

“Do you know that you could have killed someone?” I ask, picking Jessica up by her forearms and forcing her to look at me. “Jess, have you gone mad? What were you thinking?”

“I was thinking that I love you,” she shouts, and I freeze.
