Chapter Four
Sarina finished off her sandwich, burped, blushed and said, “Excuse me.”
“Good food always deserves a belch,” Brandt said. “At least that’s what my mother used to say.”
“She must have been a smart woman.”
“She was,” he smiled. “She would have loved you. And the twins... don’t even get me started.”
“Actually, getting you started is half of the reasons we’re out here right now.”
Crawling on her hands and knees, she pressed her body against him, liking the way he just lay back for her.
“I guess we’ve moved onto dessert now,” said Brandt.
“Not even close, baby.”
“Well then,” he grinned. “Let me assist you.”
Need, the edgy sort that made for jerky, hurried movements, pumped through Sarina as she hurriedly stripped her clothes. Her breasts ached as Brandt’s mouth found her tight n*****s. That only fueled her hot p***y. The last time she’d felt this insanity was when they’d screwed in the shower five and a half months earlier. She didn’t mind the gentle and easy slowness of most of their encounters now, but there was something wonderful to be said for the heated, crazy passion of s*x that drove her to the edge of her sanity.
They made love, or screwed rather, before Brandt finally set in motion the events that would seal his status among his pack. He’d have everyone, including Fenris, wondering if the alpha status would change hands. Then he’d move to the cabin and have his way with the beauty who was recovering from the last time he’d had her.
Taking out a rope from his pocket, he took Sarina’s hand and tied it around her wrist.
“You’re seriously going to tie me up? I’ve had this fantasy a time or two, but never like this. I’m not sure I can do another round at this rate,” said Sarina.
“I’m not just tying you up, darling. I’m k********g you.”
“Brody,” Sarina said, laughing. “You’re an i***t. I love you, but you’re so dense sometimes.”
“I wouldn’t be the dense one, sweetheart. I’m not Brody. My name is actually Brandt Medford. I only look like your mate. Thanks in large part to the black magic used in my pack. I will say though that I really enjoyed having my way with you again. The first time, in the shower at your parent’s house, was rather phenomenal.”
He could see the realization setting in and stood back as she retched on the ground. All things considered, he couldn’t exactly blame her. “You were the one who met me yesterday. That’s why Brody didn’t know what I was talking about. Tell me what you want.”
“Not so much me, per se. My alpha, Fenris, really, really wants your daddy-o to acquiesce and turn over the Delta pack. That being said, we both know that won’t ever happen, unless the risk equals the reward. Your dad loves you, more so than your siblings, although snagging any of you probably would have worked. However, thanks to my hook-up, snatching you was almost too easy.”
“Why would you do this?”
“Initially, I needed the recognition. Fenris just wanted to start a war. I made him see the wisdom in getting some inside intel on your pack. I couldn’t just go to your dad and ask how things were. So, I waited it out and did my research covertly. I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to have you though. Christ, you were ripe. All in season and ready to mate. I wonder if the babies in your womb are mine or his. Maybe you’ll get super lucky and have one baby from both of us, eh?”
Sarina wanted to vomit. What sick son-of-b***h did something this insane? “So you tried to impregnate me just because you wanted to have s*x? Are the females in your pack that low that you had to come looking elsewhere?”
“No, although the women in my pack have nothing on an alpha’s daughter. You are so very nice. Actually though, I did it as a way to force your father’s hand. If even one of those little rats is mine, you’ll forever be subject to the rules of my pack. I will own you, at least partially. Your father will gladly submit to freeing you from that parental contract and Fenris will be able to make the Delta pack all his.”
“You’re an i***t,” Sarina sneered. “My father will never bow to your leader. I don’t give a damn if he is the Fenris who started our line or not. You can do whatever you like to me but my father will continue to rule.”
“Whatever you say, darling. Right now all I care about is getting you nice and comfortable. I have some things to see to.”
Sarina tried to stay calm, even more aware of her condition now that she was no longer in control of her surroundings. She tried to remember which way they’d gone. Looking at trees and such as they passed them didn’t help in the least. “I can walk, please.”
“Don’t make me regret being nice to you,” he said. Sarina looked into eyes that looked so much like Brody’s. It broke her heart that she hadn’t seen past his mask. The fact that she’d slept with him, twice now, that he could be the father of her twins made her heart hurt. Would Brody forgive her? Would he understand that she hadn’t known? Deciding she needed to leave a marker, Sarina bit the ends of her hair off and tossed them down. She knew it was risky as they’d be virtually invisible to anyone looking through human eyes. Still, she had to hold onto hope that once Brody and her family knew she was missing, they’d do what was necessary to find her again.

“We’re here,” Brandt said. Sarina stood stock still as people stared. “Everyone, this is Sarina Traverse, the Delta alpha’s daughter. As you can see, she’d in a delicate state so we need to make sure she’s comfortable and cared for. Men, keep your distance. The females will tend to her, and only the females.”
Sarina felt like a piece of meat at the market. Everyone seemed to look her over as if to ask themselves if she was worth the price. She damn well was. She was a damn Traverse after all. “I need something to drink.”
“We have bourbon,” one young woman said, her bright blue eyes hopeful.
“I can’t have alcohol, sweetie.”
“How about some water, or juice? We have plenty of both.”
“Water would be wonderful.”
She was fed and given water before Brandt showed her to his chambers.
“I won’t sleep in the same room with you,” said Sarina defiantly.
“You’ll do as I say if you want to see those babies born,” he said, his face so full of anger that Sarina hoped Brody was never that mad at her. She had the urge to spit in his face but knew it’d end badly. With the twins so close to delivering, she couldn’t risk them just for her own gratification.

Brody headed home after a long day with Romeo. His body ached, but there was a part of him that yearned for his wife. He knew her time was close with every passing day. Still, it was nearly impossible, once he wanted her, to deny either of them the pleasure. He’d been surprised to find a tender side to love making. He’d always only had it hot and heavy. Then Sarina had told him they were expecting and everything had changed. He’d watched her go from a beautiful young woman, who happened to be in her first season, to a gorgeously stunning mother and the change had affected him profoundly. He wanted her happiness in a way he hadn’t known before. He wanted to give her every opportunity to smile and enjoy their lives together. He knew when her time came, it’d be hard to watch her labor and give birth. He knew it wouldn’t be easy to see her suffering, but still the idea of becoming a father to not one, but two babies... that was thrilling.
“Hey babe!” he called when he stepped through the door. He sat his jacket down and took the items he carried to the counter in the kitchen. He noticed she’d made peach cobbler and helped himself to a bite. Figuring she was probably napping, Brody snuck upstairs. Opening their bedroom door he looked around the room, confused. The shower wasn’t running, but he checked the bathroom just in case. Even after a quick check of the basement, he told himself he was being irrational. Still, he called Romeo and Amanda to see if she happened to be there.
“She left this afternoon after stopping by for a visit,” Amanda said. “You’re sure she’s not there?”
“No,” he said, his voice concerned. “I’ve checked the bathroom, our bedroom, even the basement. She’s nowhere to be seen here.”
“Come here, Brody,” Romeo ordered. “We’ll organize a search party.”
Brody met Sarina’s parents outside their home. “Tell me anything you know that seemed odd to you. Anything, even the slightest clue might help.”
“Yesterday we were getting ready for bed. I knew the change was coming and I wanted her comfortable before it happened so I wouldn’t have to worry about her afterward. She said something about seeing me yesterday afternoon while she was out visiting the Schultz’s and such. She said I kissed her senseless, except I never saw her yesterday afternoon. We were just—”
“I need everyone, Amanda. Everyone who can get here within the next half an hour,” Romeo ordered, thankful he didn’t need to tell her twice to make the calls. “I think we’ve been infiltrated. Lilith, Fenris’ lover did this to us a while back, before you and Sarina met. She pretended to be an i***t the entire time, for years possibly. All just to get close to me. She had some delusion about being with me and ruling the Delta pack. If we’ve been infiltrated, it’s possible that Fenris’ other line is behind this.”
“You’re saying that there’s someone out there who looks like me?”
“It’s possible. Black magic is very potent and powerful stuff. It’s nothing to be trifled with, I know that. If Fenris’ other line wants a war, they’ve chosen a wise first move. It gets me to come to them, ask for her back. I’m sure they’ll demand submission from me and when I refuse they’ll hurt her. If only she could tap into the powers she gained from her mother.”
“She can’t turn,” Brody said adamantly.
“No and she won’t. She’s too close to delivering to do much of anything, but if I know Amanda, she’d already be working on a locator spell.”

“I made the calls. Everyone who can come will be here in less than thirty minutes. In the meantime I’m going to do a locator spell,” said Amanda.
“Will it tell you how she is, if she’s alright?” asked Brody.
“No, but it’ll tell me where she is.”
“How can I help?”
“Be here,” Amanda smiled. “Right now, it’s all we can ask and it’s enough.”
Brody sat there with worry. How could she say that so calmly? How could either of them just sit here when Sarina was out there with God only knew who? Was she being taken care of? Were her needs being met? Were the twins alright? What if she went into labor? There was no telling what would happen if she had the babies before she was rescued. Brody stood up... he needed to move around.
“I can’t just sit here,” Brody said, pacing, his fists clenched tight.
“Son,” Romeo said. “I know exactly how you feel. I know what it is to be so pent up inside that you just want to hit someone or something. Right now though, Sarina needs you to focus that energy on helping us find her. You can’t do that if you go off half-c****d. She’ll need all of you when we find her, so stay here and try to relax while Amanda finds her. Once we know where she is, we’ll work on a plan to find her and take down whoever it is who’s holding her.”

Brandt ran into Fenris as the old leader was headed toward his chambers.
“How goes the sabotage?” asked Fenris.
“Excellent,” Brandt said. “I had their daughter this afternoon and then I brought her here. You’ll have your war now, or Romeo will submit. Either way, Sarina will be mine and Traverse and Duscene will easily die in the melee.”
“You seem awfully confident, pup,” Fenris said, his aged brown eyes weary of leading. “What happens if Romeo and Brody don’t submit and aren’t killed?”
“They’ll easily bow down to you when you present Sarina Traverse with a knife to her throat.”
“Why not get her to mate with you instead? If she bites you during s*x, she’ll be by your side instead of that traitor Duscene. That’d throw a wrench in their plans, especially if her two pups turn out to be yours.”
“Right now, I’d rather not send her into labor to find out. She’s in a delicate way and after the screw session I had with her this afternoon, I doubt she’s in any shape to take me on again, especially this soon.”
“Well, we’ll keep her as added collateral regardless of whether she mates with you or not.”
“Do you mind if I have the night sir? I have a particularly lovely female in a cabin I’d like to see to.”
“Take the night,” Fenris grinned. “You’ve earned it.”
Brandt checked on Sarina, who was sleeping, and then packed his bag and headed out. He took the longer route, watching warily for the Traverse clan. He knew by now, they had to be culling their resources. By this time tomorrow, he expected the first round of revenge. Finding the cabin barely lit, he wondered if the woman was still there.
“Knock, knock,” he said, tapping on the door. He kicked it open, looking around the inside. The small fire in the fireplace was barely lit and the cabin was getting chilly. Checking the bedroom, he found the woman he’d left, sleeping soundly. “Hey, beautiful.”
Unlike the night before, she seemed much better tonight. She’d rested well and looked even more stunning. “I was afraid you’d forgotten me.”
“Never, darling. I brought more food and water. Do you feel like eating with me?” asked Brandt.
She sat up and smiled. “I’m Carly. I know we didn’t really get a chance to introduce ourselves before.”
“I’m Brandt. It’s very nice to meet you Carly.” Brandt took out cheese, bread and a large hunk of ham. He sliced off huge chunks, chuckling when Carly took them from his hand and ate as if she hadn’t tasted food in days. “Glad I packed so much. How are you feeling?”
“Besides hungry?” she grinned. “I feel pretty damn good. It’s been forever since anyone treated me decent. I’m afraid I was rather used to being handed around and then discarded.”
“It’s a shame,” he said, meaning it. “No one should ever be made to feel that way... man, woman, or wolf.”
“I couldn’t agree more.”
“I brought you some warmer clothes,” Brandt said, pulling three pairs of jeans, four shirts, two sweatshirts and a jacket from the bag. “There are shoes and socks in there as well.”
“Thank you,” she smiled. Brandt watched her lift the gown she wore over her body and inhaled when he got a good look at her n***d body. He grabbed her wrist before she ever reached for the clothes. Standing, he pulled her close and with one hard look into her eyes, took her mouth as passion erupted in his loins. “Brandt,” she whispered before he took her lips again.
His hands touched her flesh to ignite in her what just a look started in him. He cupped her breasts, circling her n*****s until they peaked for him. Then he ran his tongue over them, sucking them gently into his mouth... her moans only driving him to take more. Walking her backward, Brandt pressed Carly up against the wall of the bathroom, his hand dipping impatiently between her thighs. He found her hot, wet center and sank two greedy fingers into that liquid heat. Her hips bucked against him as he found her clit with his thumb. Running circles around her swollen nub he kept his fingers sliding in and out of her, taking her higher with each penetration. She moved with him, her body trapped by the rhythm he set as he turned them both on. Bracing his free hand against the wall, Brandt leaned close, taking her mouth again. Her tongue slid eagerly past his lips, tangling willingly with his.
Then her hands began to pull at his clothes, as if doing so would stem the fire he’d built up inside her. Brandt pulled his fingers back and helped her strip his clothes off. He wasn’t prepared for the moment when she dropped to her knees and eagerly took his length between her lips. Her tongue wrapped warmly around his shaft, pulling him deeper into the hot, wet depths of her mouth. He felt his tip hit the back of her throat and groaned as his body began to rev up. Running his hands into her hair, Brandt gripped the back of her head and moved his hips back and forth, thrusting into her inviting mouth. Over and over again he pressed his length into her mouth, moaning as his body moved toward c****x.
The need to fill her was overpowering and Brandt was weak, too weak, to fight it. Pulling out of her mouth, he helped Carly stand. He turned her around and found her swollen folds with his wet c**k. The first thrust was hard and deep, pressing him fully into her hot snatch. Then it was all movement and moaning. Flesh pressed hard against flesh as Brandt gripped her hips and continued to penetrate her in a rhythm that catapulted them toward completion. Her moans mixed with his as Brandt continued to assault her body, his c**k filling her over and over again. His vision blurred as her wet folds pummeled him with sensations he literally couldn’t get enough of. When her p***y clenched around him, Brandt spent himself into her, burying himself deep into her hot depths.
