Wolf’s Bane FATHER AND SONS ONCE AGAIN
Meanwhile, Virgil walked, focused and determined, thinking over and over again on ways to tell his father how things really were. Also, in the back of his mind, a thought, encouraged by his beloved mate, was opening a way and was threatening to come out.If it only had the chance to...V, the loving mate, was a very different man from Virgil the friend, the business partner, and even more so, different as Alpha Virgil Camden. He's known by many as a coolly calculating, ruthless man and that’s why many thought his only balance was his mate.This is a reputation he’d have to maintain especially, if not more so, with his father, who long ago had stopped being the loving patriarch of the two boys. His senior has now become a proud man only worried about position, money, lineage, and appearances, and was warmed by very, very few things.Virgil opened the double doors of his office, and walked in tall and proud, almost as if marking his territory.The man he found inside, tall as him, and m
Wolf’s Bane WHAT REALLY MATTERS
“I’m sorry to say this, father, but your mistakes are not mine.”Virgil listened once again to that story that happened a few years before he took the lead of the pack and the related businesses. Once again, he listened carefully, but again too, was convinced of his motivations to agree with the business proposal that the Governor, the same man that had costed millions to SilverClaw and many others, years before, had discussed with him earlier that same day.“What is that supposed to mean, Virgil?” Henkjan walked a step closer to his son, still looking at him with the same cold stare.“If I tell you that I have not only strong reasons to go through with this business but have more intentions behind it, would you trust me and be calmer?” V said this as an answer, but in his mind, there was not only business, but a few other things that in recent times he’s been holding against his father, whom he once admired blindly.The question hit the older man hard, but there was no response. Aft
Wolf’s Bane WHAT REALLY MATTERS (LEVEL 2)
“Calm down, V… Calm down, now. She can’t see you like this… not today. You put a lot of effort into making her happy tonight. Don’t make her worry about you now…” Virgil told himself over and over as he walked all the way to their apartment, trying to let go of the conversation that had just happened. The bruise from the slap was pretty much healed - advantages of a werewolf’s fast healing - but there were other internal "bruises" that wouldn’t heal so soon. At least for that night, though, he would make sure that everything was perfect for his beloved mate.He finally stood in front of their door. V took a couple of dip breaths and then went in.“Beautiful? Where are you, princess?”“In the bathtub, love. I’m trying to see if I stay long enough, I’ll grow a mermaid tail,” she giggled. “The water is still warm. You actually didn’t take as long as I thought you would… though I look like a raisin already.”He was received by low mood lighting and the soft romantic music that she herse
Wolf’s Bane OLD AND NEW FAMILY
It was still dark when the mysterious stranger made his phone call. He tried to keep his voice low as he heard his call being picked up on the fifth ring.“Where the hell did you end up last night, Orlando?!” the caller hissed through his thick weaved mask. “I was looking all over for you for hours but I couldn’t find you anywhere. Where the hell were you?”“Sorry Boss, I didn’t mean to leave you hanging. Something big happened last night and I gotta tell you, things just happened so fast that I didn’t realize what was happening and then I couldn’t do anything about it and…”“Whoa, whoa, whoa… stop right there… I need to get back to work today and I don’t dare be late, not after what happened last time. You should really come over to replace me. There really is something going on with this Eye Candy City Boy and I need someone spying on him as much as possible. You can go ahead and tell me everything when I replace you here after work tonight, but I really need you to shut up right no
Wolf’s Bane OLD AND NEW FAMILY (PART 2)
“Ah yes… I still remember this one. Dad was planning to give it to me before but we completely forgot about it. It’s quite remarkable that you found it. Didn’t even think it was still around, since Mom was the one who named it when they were still dating.”“Oh wow, really? So that’s why we would give names to our stuff. I didn’t know that it was her idea.”“Well, she believed that machines also are aware of their masters. If the owners would name them, that would strengthen the bonds between them and even energize the machine to perform better and live longer. Since Dad hadn’t named his motorcycle yet after Grandad bought it for him, Mom did it for him.”“Bro, I suddenly have an idea…”He went to his father’s office that day because of a discovery he made in one of the deepest parts of their basement garage. Since he was a teenager, he was totally excited with his find and he really intended to bring it back to life.Especially when his older brother told him the story behind the forg
Wolf’s Bane OLD AND NEW FAMILY (PART 3)
His trip down memory lane was not so pleasant but it did give Eron enough strength to push aside his sleepiness and get up from the bed. He tossed aside the blanket and tried to look around for the towel that he wore last night to temporarily cover his nakedness.It was nowhere to be found…“That’s odd, I could have sworn I was wearing it last night when I went back to the room…” he whispered to himself, still searching around the bed just in case it fell off the mattress as he slept. “Or was I? Wait a tick...”Just then he heard fast but not-so-heavy footsteps rushing from one room and going through the corridor. It was followed by another set of firmer footsteps and it sounded like it was running after the lighter runner.And they were both headed towards his door!Eron’s thoughts: “Shit, did I even lock that thing? Damn, too late to find out…”As he wolf-sped towards the farthest corner of his room where his clothes were still piled messily, one on top of the other, his hands swift
Wolf’s Bane UNWELCOMED GOSSIPY GUESTS
“Dad, I consider walking as my only exercise these days because of how busy I am. That jeep won’t be helping me at all.”“It would help you get home a lot more, so you can be with your parents more,” snapped the former schoolteacher.“I’m sure you mean well, Ma’am, but I do have my reasons,” Jack replied as he took another swig of his drink, then he whispered, “And I’m sure you have yours…”“Did you say something, son?” Ms. Nelia said, trying to catch what she thought she heard.“Nothing, Ma’am...”Jack knew he should stop saying his thoughts aloud. At work, people didn’t mind him doing that since he's the boss, but, even though he knew that this gossip’s hearing was now slowly deteriorating, he knew that was not a free pass to voice all his thoughts.Nope, definitely not for these talkative women’s ears.“I still don’t understand why you had to eat at Diwana’s house instead of here with your parents, son. Of course, we were here with them but I’m sure there you could have easily join
Wolf’s Bane THE DINNER INVITATION
“He did, huh? Well then, if he saved your life, I’m indebted to him. As a matter of fact, I think we should even meet him and thank him personally. What do you think, Carmel?”“Why that’s a great idea, Paul. And you said he’s now living at Diwana’s place, right? I’m sure he can manage to walk over after work and meet us. That is, if that’s ok with you, Jack.”Jack almost choked on the last bit of his beer, but he did manage to take that last swallow without spitting it out.“You want to meet him?” he asked with a rasping voice.“Yes, your mom and I. It would be good to meet the savior of my son and get to know more about him.”“We can make him feel even more welcome since he is a newcomer…”Jack’s thoughts: Me and my big mouth… and my parents happen to be Maximilian's fans. Oh boy…“Uhhh, he’s just fairly new out here, dad. It wouldn’t be good to force him to meet people just because his boss said so.”“Well, tell him that you mother and I are still the owners of the lumberyard, even

A LOVING REMINDER
“Diwana, I know you’re in there,” Eron soothingly said as he knocked on his new spouse’s bedroom door in the hopes that she would let him in without much fuss or fight. “I just want to talk, honey pie. Would that be OK?”The muscular Charmer waited a moment, but due to his enhanced hearing, he was sure that his troubled wife was already rising from her bed and was about to open her bedroom door. Within half a minute, she had already done so, but it was obvious from her facial expression that she was anything but all right.Eron instantly held her close as his fingers rubbed her long, wavy, ebony tresses before she could say anything.“Why do you look so down, Di? You can tell me, alright? What’s bothering you, pumpkin pie?”“I can’t do it, my love. I feel so weird doing it. It feels as if I’m not even a normal human being,” Diwana sobbed as a warm tear or two fell on her caring man’s shirt. “I’m afraid the kids may see me differently when I use my magical powers… Or even you!”Eron h

OPENING CLOSED DOORS
Eron speed-walked into the kitchen and was surprised to only find his Twinny with Mr. and Mrs. Merhi looking unsure at each other. In front of them was a large violet bucket of dark green liquid beside the large dining table with all the food items that they planned to feed the Ogre’s men upon their arrival.“Twinny, where is my wife?” the bulked-up former city man asked hesitantly.“She got a little overwhelmed when Tess and I told her all the possible things she could do with her Faye powers,” the dejected Luna stated with a crestfallen sigh. “I think she was overcome knowing everything that she could do, Twinny. But her Tikbalang Father assured us that it is absolutely essential that she learn the majority of her powers because of the upcoming battles that she would need to face.”“I feel that Senyor Armanaz means to pit her against that whore witch Chin Kahlagu when Eleuthera finally goes full force, Eron,” the chubby Police Chief admitted as he lovingly held his wife Tessy to his

ASKING PERMISSION
“Hello, mom! It’s Emily…”At that point, Jack could hear various muffled but delighted female squeals and male yells in the background of his new fiancé’s phone call’s other line, which was obviously on speaker mode. He could easily tell that Em’s family was truly rejoicing over her return to Mendez.After a few moments of awkwardly answering her parent’s and siblings’ questions about her sudden disappearance from their village, the young light-haired lumberyard owner cleared his throat to make the female abductee aware of his presence along with his willingness to rescue her from telling more about her past traumatic experiences to her very curious family members.“Oh, by the way, I’d like to introduce a longtime friend to everyone there. Everybody, this is Jack. Remember the guy who gifted me the so-called alabaster box as you all called it years before? He would like to talk to you, Dad, if it’s OK?”“Yes, I do remember him, daughter. Put him on the line, please…”At her male paren

SPECIAL INTRODUCTIONS
“Eron, I’m already done with your request,” Madame Tess declared with a pleased voice as she entered the half-filled living room. “We can now use it to enchant the food items that you plan to feed to your Ärger guests.”The hazel-eyed Charmer immediately stood up from the flowery-patterned armchair where he was lounging and gave a small nod and smile of approval at what he heard. “That’s wonderful news, Mrs. Merhi! Now all we have to do is drizzle your potion on the foodstuff in the dining room table and kitchen counters.”“Leave that to us and your Twinny, son. But I would like to ask Diwana to join us so we can continue to teach her how to use her Faye magic.”“Of course, Madame. All you need to do is ask,” the smiling curvy mate said as she stood from the matching floral sofa, then quickly walked towards her renter slash magic mentor. “We can begin now, no problem.”“While you're doing that, we’ll just take our ride back to our rented shack and get those skinned bunnies so you can

HEARTFELT ADMISSIONS
The door of the nearest 2nd-storey bedroom next to the wide staircase resounded with half a dozen loud knocks before Emily could answer the door.“Just a minute, Helena. I needed to take a bath since I couldn’t take one before I had completed the medical examination at the hospital this morning,” the young lady said in a voice loud enough to be heard by the person behind the door. “I hope I didn’t make you wait too long.”Emily quickly opened the door and gasped in surprise at the sight of the tall, good-looking and well-built man behind it. She froze, her mouth wide open in the middle of wiping her dripping hair with the white towel provided by their landlady. “J-Jack, why are you here?” stuttered the rescued female, in shock and extreme nervousness.“Hello, Emmy. Can I talk to you for a bit?” the lumberyard supervisor asked a little hesitantly. “That is, if you have nothing to do right now…”“No… I mean, yes, I am not busy at the moment, so yeah, we can talk. Please come in,” the

CAREFUL CONSIDERATIONS
“Hey, Hero. Looks like your Eleuthera idea is turning out great!” Nick said from the passenger seat of his friend’s car. “Am I also glad that you’ll now be freeing your men and my buddies from that Chin bitch’s hold! That has always been a problem for me, which is why I keep Brenner’s concoction regularly to counter Chin’s potions in our food that’s being served at the mansion.”“It was one of the first things that Bren mentioned after he realized it. He ate from the governor’s buffet table and found himself sexually pleasuring the governor without even being aware of how it happened, bro,” the Ogre admitted as he continued to drive around 1 mile per hour less than the highway’s speed limit since he was in a hurry to get to Mendez and he knew that the high-powered vans where the Ärgers that were riding behind him were closely following him. He was driving this fast since he truly wanted to liberate his men from the enchantment of the governor’s wife and Ed himself as soon as possible.

CALLING IN FAVORS
Meanwhile, back in the city…Ring, ring, ring… Click!“Hello, wife. Why are you calling me on my landline so early in the morning? This better be really important, Chin!”“It is, Ed. Have your private army already gone to Mendez?”“Yes, they left with my Left Hand a few hours ago…”“I just looked into my scrying crystal and I saw your precious little Left hand will soon manage to break the loyalty spell that I put on the Ärgers somehow!”“What? He would not dare! Didn’t your spell work on the Ogre as well, wife?”“I don’t know how, but he and the Right Hand seem impervious to my lesser-powered enchantments even from day one. I remember telling you that even from the start, husband dear. Don’t you remember?”The governor swallowed the words that he was about to say and just left them to run through his thoughts as he remained silent; I do remember your warning, Chin, but it mattered to me that anyone cannot influence my closest underlings by magic or sorcery. Even by you, wife. I canno

SPECIAL CONFERENCES
“Okay Macky, please let them know your mama and me will just get dressed then we’ll be meeting them downstairs!” the former Right Hand yelled from inside the locked bathroom. “Just tell them to wait, alright?”“Yep, will do Papa Eron!” the smiling male youth replied, then immediately left to obediently follow his new stepfather’s instructions. “Oh, before I forget Papa, I brought the clothes that you were carrying home with you inside your bedroom.”“Thanks, Macky!” As he answered his new stepson, the muscular tinkerer stood up from the white clawed-foot bathtub and then offered his large, long-fingered hand to his mate. While the fully naked Lycan husband gently pulled his wife to her feet, Diwa suddenly spoke up.“Don’t you lock your door, love? I remember handing you the key for it when you paid your advance before…”“I never do, cupcake, and now that you will let me transfer to your room since we are now married, we can let my Twinny transfer to my bedroom and let Macky go back to

CRAZIEST THINGS
“Is it okay if I use the bathtub while you shower, Eron?” the naked curvy Diwa inquired as she slowly stepped into her filled bubbly bath which she had already prepared to meet her preference. “That way we can take our baths in unison so we can be on time to receive our guests later.”The younger hazel-eyed muscled male smirked as he replied, “Why should we take separate baths, cherry pie when I’m sure we can both fit in the bathtub?” he suggested as his passion heavily reflected from his eyes and tone while he slowly approached his now-soaking and sponging wife.“But how on earth can we fit in here, husband?” asked Diwa in a half-laughing and partially panicked voice as she tried to move her long tanned and smooth legs to accommodate the burly hunk of a man as he stepped into the warm and fragrant waters of the tub. “I don’t think that’s possible, love.”Eron chuckled low, his broad, hairy chest rumbling along to his deep and delicious masculine sound. “Believe me, Diwana there are so
