Bonded By Destiny

Tamara

‘That is not the answer I want! ‘ My mate bellowed in rage, pushing his office chair backwards as he stood. The ferocious stare he pinned on his Beta and Theo had them fidgeting on their feet. I stood unfazed by his office window, observing the scene evolve, with my arms crossed over my upper abdomen.

‘Alpha, we have searched everywhere, there’s no sign of that wizard. ‘ Either Theo didn’t have any idea that his statement was just fueling Ryker’s rage, or he genuinely wanted to ease off the rising temperatures .Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.

‘We did it both man and animal and still nothing useful turned up. ‘ Jayson spoke lowly, shifting on his feet at the high levels of Alpha testosterone that oozed from my mate.

‘Pathetic!’ The words were forced out of his mouth, in between teeth that were clenched together.

‘Are you trying to say that, that devil incarnate vanished without a trace? ‘ Another roar of temper heated up his office more, making Theo spot visible sweat droplets on his forehead. I had no doubt in my mind that had I not been Ryker’s mate, I would have been down on one knee in submission. The immense power his rage pushed forward, washed over our bond. I could feel the waves of steam flooding the thread that held us together.

‘Alpha please! ‘ Theo pleaded, his Adam apple visibly and audibly bobbing as he forced saliva down his throat. He sent a quick glance at my man, then took a step backward as he took in the incandescent form Alpha Ryker was in.

Frustrated, raging and helpless.

I could read them on his face crystal, not dissimilar from what the bond was depicting. Both man and beast wanted to get hold of Addanc in their arms, and only then, would they be able to let go. Until he laid his eyes again on him, he would frustrate every single warrior to make sure his order would be followed and carried out.

‘Even Tyron couldn’t pin point the smell of him, it is as if he wasn’t even here. ‘ My friend’s mate added more reason to their previous answer, but the alpha male was having none of it.

‘Fucking give me something, anything! ‘ He slammed his palms with a resounding thud on the table, making flinch. He wasn’t thinking clearly so it seemed, the rising rage was nothing but solid proof.

‘Yes Alpha. ‘ Jayson nodded, avoiding any eye contact. He knew that the male that stood him was still his friend, but the Alpha instincts in him had entirely kicked in. I knew he would tease him later when he calmed down, but until then, he had no choice but to show utmost respect.

‘With all due respect Alpha, the wizard was in the pack lands and you let him escape. ‘ Theo mumbled, and even I didn’t have werewolf hearing but I still heard him.

‘Theo. ‘ Jayson shot him a side glance.

‘What? It’s true, why didn’t you task us with catching him then when he was around? We wouldn’t be searching for him right now had you given the right call then. ‘

In a speed that a human eye couldn’t comprehend, he had wrapped his hand around Theo’s neck. The strength that this man possessed was unheard off, and even one of the best warriors couldn’t compare to it. He towered over his cousin, looking down on him with his other fist clenched tightly.

‘You dare challenge me! ‘ He spat the words, barring his growing incisors at Theo. His eyes had totally blackened, his voice had deepened more. I could see a line of fur begin to grow  below his neck. His wolf had totally taken over and that meant destruction if something wasn’t done.

‘I am going to show you who the Alpha is here. ‘ He squeezed his fingers around the warrior’s neck, making him flail his arms in an attempt to pry off the hand. It was all futile because the man in front of him was already half animal and soon he would phase. My mind snapped back to how his wolf had annihilated Jax and I swear I didn’t wish it on Theo.

His colour was beginning to drain on his face and his eyes were struggling to stay open. Jayson stood fixed on the floor with his wide open as he watched on helplessly. He then turned to me, giving me a pleading look to do something. Of course I wasn’t about to have a werewolf drop dead on the office, but I wanted Theo to experience pain first. Sadistic, but he had been blatantly disrespectful to the Alpha.

A growl resonated on the office space, just as Theo’s knees began to give up.

Ryker raised his left boot clad foot then with immense strength, he stepped on Theo’s feet with a loud thud. The sound made me flinch, watching as Theo shut his barely open eyes in pain.

A vein on his forehead popped, the sweat droplets that had been there multiplying. Enough was enough, this enraged man wolf would have an additional enemy on his back if he didn’t stop. Uncle Pete wouldn’t take another death if Theo were to die, at the hands of my mate and his nephew.

‘If you make me flinch again, I will gladly walk out of this office and leave this place unprotected. ‘ I needed to do something to distract him from the anger, otherwise there would be hell to pay.

‘Tamara stay out of this. ‘ He warned, his seething voice filling my thoughts. He slightly loosened the hold on his cousin.

‘No! ‘ I boldly took my stand.

‘Tamara. ‘ I turned my eyes to the outside via the window just as he fully turned to look at me. If I was going to become the Luna in a few days, then I needed to wholly help him make sane decisions. Especially when he let emotions rule his mind, body and soul.

‘No! ‘ I stubbornly remained unaffected, still watching the outside absent mindedly.

‘I will not be mated to a murderer. ‘ I pushed my thoughts to his once again, making him loose his hold totally, letting Theo go. He kneeled down, spluttering all over, his hands clutching his neck as tears coursed down his pale face.

‘Let that be the last time you disrespect me. Tamara might not be there next time. ‘ He shut his eyes, taking in a deep breath that raised his shoulders a bit visibly. When he opened his eyes, they had turned back to normal but the anger was still visible. The flaring of his nostrils had yet to cease. Even his lips seemed to be pulled back in a permanent scowl.

‘Meet me at exactly an hour from now outside the dungeons, bring Tyron and 10 warriors with you. ‘ He dismissed them, watching as they exited with Theo dragging his feet on the floor. Jayson remained quiet and shaken as they left and closed the door behind them.

‘That was totally uncalled for Ryker! ‘ I reprimanded, holding a smile from forming. Something inside of me had enjoyed the dominance that he had shown. Much like how I felt when he dealt with Jax back at the forest.

‘Didn’t you hear what he said? ‘ He shook his head disbelievingly, making steps towards me.

‘I know, but you didn’t have to take such an impulsive action without deliberating. ‘ I reprimanded, feeling his beast in our bond whining slightly. I finally let the smile graze my amused face. How could this previously enraged wolf whine at my words? Indeed the mate bond was enough to bring any werewolf, down on his knees.

‘Tamara, that was not the only reason my beast and I wanted to end him. ‘ He muttered, briefly looking past me and outside through the open window. People went on their usual business , as if a warrior hadn’t been close to losing his life, at the hands of their incensed alpha.

‘What is it Ryker? ‘ I could sense a little bit of remorse in our bond. I tilted my neck, lifting my face to look up at him properly.

‘He is right you know? ‘ He stretched his hand, the same hand that had choked the air out of Theo. His fingers traced my left cheek down to my jaw gently, as opposed to what they had done to his cousin.

‘What do you mean? ‘ His movements didn’t stop, even as he briefly stood in silence. I couldn’t help but try to tap in his thoughts but I couldn’t decipher his exact ideations at the moment. A million thoughts jumbled in the thread that held us together.

‘Had I been on my right mind, I would have captured him back at your place. ‘ Guilt weighed down on him like tons of bricks, making his shoulders sag.

‘I stopped you from doing your duties. ‘ Realisation dawned on me and now I was the one who became ridden with culpability.

‘No no Tamara, it wasn’t your fault. It was mine, I knew he would go to where my father was, and yet I didn’t inform any warrior. I was so worried about your safety I forgot that it all depended on his capture. ‘ His voice had an edge on it, one that I couldn’t quite decipher.

‘I failed you, I failed the pack. ‘ He whispered, casting his eyes on the floor.

‘But you will make it right my love. ‘ He turned his gaze to me, flickering his eyes from mine to my lips.

‘Do it Ryker, kiss me and will your mind to relax. ‘ I urged standing on my tip toes as an invitation.

‘Tamara. ‘ He shook his head, running his hands up and down his face.

‘You need this, when our pheromones entwine, you will experience a calming sensation. Then you will be able to sit down and come up with a plan. ‘ I cajoled, blinking and batting my eyelashes gently.

‘Fuck it. ‘ He leaned down, maintaining eye contact as he inched closer and closer. My whole body tingled as he finally wrapped his hands on my frame. As heat rose all the way to my chest, his mouth finally claimed mine, my heart skipping at the contact.

His warmth washed over me, as his soft lips moved against mine slowly. A shudder raked through him as he deepened the kiss, a half moan half groan leaving his mouth. As his hands squeezed my ass cheeks, I let out a moan that got swallowed down his throat.

Our lips remained sealed as we drowned in each other, hands roaming along our heated up profiles. The taste of him was hypnotic, pulling me deeper and deeper into the kiss.

Thrilling

He pulled back a bit, raking on my body hungrily. A shudder ran through my body at his eyes flagrant desire. My body reacted instantly, my buds pressing the front of my dress.

‘How many minutes would it take for me to tear that dress, bend you over that desk and fuck you into oblivion? ‘ Raspy, his words went straight to my core, awakening my happy button.

‘Damn I will never get used to your smell of arousal, captivating. ‘ His hands on my hips pulled me upwards, making my legs wrap around his waist.

‘oooh. ‘ I hissed in pure pleasure as my covered pussy came into contact with his hardening cock under his slacks. With my arms secured around his neck, I lifted my body up then down, rotating my waist. I sort out for more friction, pressing harder on him as I moaned.

‘Fuck yes. ‘ He snapped his hips forward, making me throw my head back at the ecstasy. Our lips met again, but this time his tongue pierced straight into my mouth. As he fucked my mouth with urgency, a searing pain cut across my lower abdomen. Liquid, I could feel a lot of it dampening my panties even as my sex throbbed excessively so.

‘Oh damn honey you’re in heat. ‘ His words were forced, as if he couldn’t contain himself.

‘It’s earlier than expected little witch. ‘ He held me impossibly closer, slowing down the effects of the heat that crawled up my spine.

‘What is wrong with me? ‘ I writhed against him, with my eyes totally and tightly shut.

‘You’re in heat. ‘ He rasped, thrusting his hips forward yet again. My eyes drooped, my clit pulsating painfully with want.

‘Make it go away, please. ‘

‘I will, but it has to be done during the ceremony. ‘ He paused before biting his lower lip.

‘Seems it will be happening now and not later in the week as previously planned. ‘ His voice caressed my insides slowly, making me gyrate my hips wantonly.

Have everyone informed about the claiming ceremony happening in 20 minutes. She is ready for me. He mind linked his better and I couldn’t stop the wave of pain that crossed through my belly one more.
