How could I be happy ?
” It’s Lucy’s sister and she belongs to the council .”
Lucas stopped walking altogether as everything I just said sunk in . “f**k.”
Before he could say anything more , Alex approached us with an anxious look . ” I scent Austin , he was definitely here .”
I stiffened , he was right , my mind was so caught up on my conversation with Lucas that I had missed my brother’s scent . My eyes scanned the shoreline , searching for any other clues to point us in their direction . Austin and Lucy had definitely been here , they most likely washed up here after the fall .
“Where do you suppose they went?” Lucas asked .
“I’m not sure , let’s follow their scent , they definitely went south of here .”
I could feel the tension ease up around us as the packs released a sigh of relief upon knowing that we were closer to finding Austin and Lucy . Everyone picked up the pace , impatient to find them and ensure that they were okay .
We were about fifteen minutes in when their scents hit us stronger Something was off .
My eyes widened when I realized what it was , OH f**k.
I looked at the packs , ready to stop them from walking further but it was already too late as Austin and Lucy were right there in front of us .. completely naked .
AUSTIn’S POV :
I g*****d and rolled off Lucy , feeling completely exhausted and lifeless , in fact at the moment I could barely feel my f*****g legs as I laid flat on my back with my hands sprawled out to the sides of me . I looked above me ,staring at the sun that was about to set . f**k which meant we’d been at it for approximately half of the day but luckily for both of us , the needing was finally over . I didn’t think I would be able to last another round .
Lucy sighed in contentment besides me as she leaned into my side , resting her hand on my bare chest her eyes still closed .
I desperately wanted to roll over and take her in my arms . Desperately wanted to ask her if she was okay but had absolutely no energy left in me , so I settled for just looking at her from this angle . My eyes were slowly scanning her body from top to bottom , taking in how beautiful this woman really was unable to wrap my mind around the fact that I’d spent the last few hours buried so deep inside her , I fought back a g***n .
I stayed in that position for a few minutes , waiting impatiently for my energy to return as my body healed itself from the strain . The needing was indeed something special that provided both male and female with tremendous pleasure but at the same time it also completely drained you both of all the energy within your body , it was unfortunately ten times worse on the female than it was on the male however so I desperately wanted to regain my strength to properly take care of Lucy , the way in which she deserved .
Sudden footsteps caught my attention at the same time familiar scents filled my nostrils .
I froze , my head snapping up in the direction of the sound so fast that I felt a wave of dizziness flash through me . A string of curses left my mouth as I tried to blink through the dizziness , as my eyes focused on the scene in front of me . I was greeted by shocked looks of all of the members’ from both my pack and that of my brother’s .
nick was the first to break the silence with a low whistle , while the rest of the oppressors had an amused look on their faces , my eyes went to James who’s face was completely red , which was a very rare sight to see. My eyes continued to focus on the faces of my brother’s pack , and I saw red the motherfuckers were staring at Lucy’s naked body with a hungry gaze .
A loud growl tore from me , shaking the trees around us as I rushed to cover Lucy’s body with my own , sending a death glare their way .
The men immediately took a step back and turned the other direction without another word . Lucy buried her head against my chest in embarrassment as I picked her up with me before placing her down on her feet .
I took a deep breath , trying to suppress my anger towards the males , I needed to constantly remind myself that they were my allies not my enemy .
“Are you okay ?” I asked Lucy while handing her dress to her .A blush made it’s way on her face as she looked down at her torn underwear on the ground .
“Yes. ” She whispered , refusing to look up at me .
A smile formed on my lips at her reaction as I continued to stare at her while she quickly threw the dress on , her cheeks a beautiful shade of red .
“Is it safe to turn around now ?” Lucas called , the grin evident in his voice .
A scowl immediately replaced my smile as I tugged back on my jeans .
“You can now .” I growled .
“I guess we were worried for nothing .” Asher teased as they all turned around looking more amused than before . ” It looks like our Alpha has been doing way better than we expected .”
“How did you escape Vincent ?” I asked suddenly remembering that the vampire had claimed that he was going to ambush the packs . My eyes scanned the men , none of the members were injured so clearly there hadn’t been any fight .
“Lucy’s brothers came to warn us .” James answered .
I felt Lucy stiffen besides me , the color draining from her face at the sudden mention of her brothers .
“Are they okay ?” She asked , her forehead creasing with worry .
James gave her a sympathetic look .” We can’t say for sure , they risked a lot by coming to warn us We can only hope Vincent doesn’t suspect their betrayal .”
“Vincent is way too experienced to not expect a betrayal from the Cross brothers for the safety of their sister .” I pointed out . ” Hopefully they have no proof against them .”
“We aren’t in the clear yet .” James announced loud enough for everyone to hear .” Lucy’s brothers would try to hold off Vincent for as long as they could but there is no doubt the f*****g vampire would send out a search party for us , in fact I’m sure he already knows exactly where to look for us since anyone would guess that the first place to start looking would be on the shorelines , since that is where you and Lucy would be expected to wash up.”
“You’re right .” I nodded in agreement . “We need to start moving now , get out of this place and back to our territory as fast as we could .”
If the vampire decided to still come for us , we had a better chance in our own territory . I would have a lot more time to prepare and get back up from other pack alliances in which I’d helped in the past . At the mention of the council many of the packs would instantly want to back out but I knew a loyal few that would fight along our side if it ever came to that.
