Chapter 5
Sam’s pov
Things were going great for me. It was not so great for my sister, but I was blissfully happy. My dad believed me, and so did Harris. I knew the alpha family wasn’t convinced about it all, but hopefully, his parents wouldn’t hold back on making him alpha.
Half of the pack was on Becca’s side, and the other half thought it must be true as Harris would never lie about something like that. They also didn’t think that anyone would be so horrible to a family member, so they believed me.
Harris was caught up in the excitement of it all, I member how excited he got when the princess got blessed with two mates and I know that he was hoping that one day he would be as lucky as them. He wanted the best of both worlds and didn’t want to be stuck with only one gender as his mate.
He did start to worry about Becca, especially when she stopped letting him touch her at all. I know his wolf was suffering because of it. So, I made sure to keep him as distracted as possible and play up to his ego so he wouldn’t question anything. I remember us talking a couple of weeks after I got back.
“Sam I don’t know what to do anymore, Becca is still fighting this whole thing, and she has gotten my mother involved. Even worse, I think it is affecting the child” he said sadly to me.
I felt bad for a moment, I know Becca’s health has gone downhill lately, and I don’t want the pup to die or be harmed, but if I back off, it will look strange. I am sure if she just accepts this, she won’t feel as bad anytime we are together.
“I guess you can’t blame her. She has always been second place to me with dad, and now she probably feels the same way with us. I just wish she didn’t make herself ill over it. I will back off and go away for a while if it will help” I say, sounding as sad and contrite as I can.
“No, I can’t lose you any more than I can lose her. If we stop now, she will never get used to the new dynamic of our bond. I will talk to her about it, and hopefully, she will listen this time” he says, worried that I may leave.
“She should be happy that our pack has been blessed like this. It will only make you and the pack stronger with you having 2 mates, it happened with Raquel’s pack. You are special baby, that is why the moon goddess blessed you” I say, seeing how much pride he feels when I say it.
He really likes to think of how special he is. It makes him want this more and question things less. For an alpha, he is really easy to read and manipulate. Because of these traits, I can get closer to him, as he puts distance between him and Becca as he starts to resent her for ruining his happiness.
Another two weeks pass, and Becca ends up in the hospital a couple of times. The baby is fine, so I don’t have to stop what I am doing. I think her and her wolf are protecting the pup, and all the damage is going directly on her.
She looks like cr.ap if I am honest, and she doesn’t do much to make herself look better. No wonder Harris is coming to me more. He won’t be able to get it up for her soon if she keeps looking worse and worse. She needs to get a grip on herself.
It’s not like I want them to split up, if that happens I think some of the pack members on our side will go to hers, and Harris’ family will be even more against our bond. Also, my potion may stop working if they break the bond, so it is not in my best interest that she stays.
Becca and dad have fallen out completely she is refusing to talk to him at all. I tried to patch things up and get them speaking, but Becca no longer listens to me. Apart from dad, I am her least favourite person right now.
But this latest episode is another chance to push forward my view of Becca being awkward and immovable in her stance. It makes her look more unreasonable, whereas I look like the one who is doing whatever he can to make sure everyone is happy, which is why I spoke to Harris about it.
“Becca and dad fell out, I am worried about her baby. She thinks dad is picking sides, but he is just trying to make sure everyone is happy. I tried to talk to her as she only just got a good relationship with him, but now she won’t talk to me either” I tell him sadly, even managing a few tears so it looks good.
“I don’t think anyone can get her to see sense, babe. I am tired of trying. She is making what should be our happiest times into a nightmare” he replies, sighing heavily.
“What can we do? I hate seeing her like this, and I am worried about the pup” I say, acting defeated.
“I don’t think there is anything we can do. Becca needs to see for herself how much she is hurting not only herself but everyone who cares for her” he says in pain, I feel a slight bit of guilt again as I hate seeing him like this.
Now it has been 2 months since I came back and it is Harris’ brothers 18th birthday. Becca has actually made an effort today for his party. She is not as pretty as she was. This has taken a toll on her, but she looks a damn sight better than she has. Make-up can do wonders.
The thing with the potion I am taking is that my true mate will not scent me, and it dulls my senses as well. So I don’t even notice anything amiss until I brush past Liam, and I feel like I have been struck with lightning. He looks at me strangely, and I know I need to do something about this.
“Don’t tell me I zapped you as well. I think I have zapped 5 people so far, I have no idea why I have so much static in me today” I say, laughing.
He laughs too, but doesn’t entirely look convinced at my excuse, but before he can question it, I tell him to enjoy his night and wish him luck in meeting his mate. Then I walk off before he can question this any more than he already is.
I need to act now, I am running out of my potion, and having my true mate so close will affect its effectiveness. If I had known that Liam would be my mate, I would never have done this. Liam is great and looks exactly like Harris, I would have been happy with him.
There is not much I can do now, if him and his family found out what I had done, they would never accept me now. Plus, I will be in a lot of trouble with the council and could get locked up or worse, so I need to keep this up and try and force Harris to mark me.
I take Harris a drink with a little bit of wolfsbane in it. Not enough to stop him from releasing his fangs, but enough to quieten down Jax. I also take a bit of wolfsbane and iron to quieten down my wolf and dragon as they are annoying me about Liam, and I don’t want them to stop me.
I am sure I would be able to convince them in time that Harris is our only option and that we are too far gone to backtrack now. I am sure they will forgive me tomorrow when they are finally marked by him. I just need them not to interfere tonight.
Harris is in a good mood after having a few drinks, and he happily let’s me pull him away to his room. I have something of Beccas’s to put him in even more of a haze to get what I want from him. So far, he has resisted marking me, so I need to use everything I can before it is too late.
Harris is practically insatiable as he rips off my clothes with his claws, not stopping kissing me for a second. I return the favour using my claws, and soon we are both naked and moaning, feeling each other’s hard co.cks pressing against our bodies.
There is no foreplay, we just move on to the main act and soon he is pounding into me as I chant his name and tell him how good he fu.cks me begging him to mark me, as I knew he likes it when his partner begs him.
He is so caught up in the moment, and with not hearing any protest from Jax, I feel his fangs scrape my mark spot. It feels amazing as he sucks it, and when he sinks his teeth in, finally, I c.um harder than I ever have in my life.
I turn my head so I can reach his spot and sink my fangs into him as he moans sexily and fills my a.ss with his seed. I instantly feel the tingles, not as strong as true mates but enough that they add to our pleasure and help us find peace in each other’s arms.
That night, he doesn’t go back to Becca’s room to sleep. I am so happy to finally fall asleep in his arms. I hope when we get up in the morning, Becca will no longer feel pain when we are together, and we can finally move forward together.
