Protecting Annie

Annie
When the plane landed, I took a deep breath. Logan smiled at me as he helped me get dressed. I flushed when he placed a kiss on my stomach as he tugged my shirt down. I giggled a little when he blew a raspberry on my stomach before pulling back to grin up at me.
“You farted on me while you were asleep. It was the cutest thing,” he told me as he pulled his pants up over his hips.
“I’m so sorry,” I whispered, lowering my eyes.
He tipped my face up, grinning at me. “Do you want to know how it sounded?”
“What? Who would want to know how their farts sounded?” I asked in shock.
He chuckled as he lowered his mouth to my neck to blow a heavy raspberry onto it. I burst out laughing, shoving him back a little.
“That tickles!”
“I know. At least now you seem more relaxed. How do you feel?” He inquired.
“Better. I’ve never been to Havana before, and I’ve never been…” I started before fading off.
He raised his eyebrow before taking my hand to kiss the back of it. “You’ve never gone to a sleuth for the first time as their Alpha Sow. I understand. No one will look down on you. I promise. If they even tried, I will punish them.” He pulled me close to his body, holding me tightly. “Trust me, Annie. I promise that I will not let you fail.”
I sighed as I wrapped my arms around his waist. “I trust you,” I murmured almost silently.
“Good. Let me get dressed and then we can go.”
I sat on the makeshift bed to watch him finish getting ready. When he was done, I climbed up on the bed to stand over him. He tilted his head back to look up at me.
“How’s the weather up there?” He joked.
“Well, it’s breathtaking!”
He chuckled as he gripped my waist. “What are you doing up there, beautiful?”
“I have this fantasy from my books that I’ve always wanted to try. I want you to be the one I try with,” I said, blushing darkly.
“Do tell!”
“Well, all my male leads always threaten to caveman their women. I want you to caveman me,” I told him.
He raised his eyebrow at me as he studied my face. “Caveman you, hmm?”
I nodded eagerly, before crying out as he threw me over his shoulder, spanking my ass when I started flailing. He turned around to walk off the plane, moving past Giselda who silently fell into step beside him. He spanked my ass again.
“You’re a naughty girl, Annie,” he told me huskily. “And naughty girls don’t get to walk.”
I groaned as he walked down the stairs. I hit his back with my fists. “Put me down! I said put me down! Right now!” I told him, trying to keep our act going while my arousal clung to me like a second skin.
He flipped me so that I was hanging three inches from the ground as he continued to walk. I screamed as I started to reach up to grab onto him so he didn’t drop me.
“LOGAN!”
He chuckled as he pretended to drop me before my back hit a car seat. He crawled into the car over me, peppering kisses along my neck until he was able to capture my lips with his. My breath hitched as his tongue entered my mouth. I swallowed hard as his hands went under my shirt to touch my stomach while Giselda shut the door behind him. I reached up to touch him, but he caught both of my hands in one of his, placing them above my head as he stared into my eyes.
“I like this, Annie. We should do this every week. You run and I come find you to caveman you all the way home.”
I giggled as I nodded. “Only if you promise to remind me why you chased me in the first place.”
He groaned as he thrust lightly against my core. “Fuck, Annie. I don’t think there will be a day where I don’t worship your body. If we had the time now, I would already be inside of you. I don’t think Giselda would mind.”
“Wrong, Cousin. I would mind very much. Better do something about your hardon before we arrive at the sleuth house. Everyone is heading there,” Giselda said from the front seat.
I pushed Logan off of me as panic began to set in. I looked out the window to see that she was right. Everyone was hurrying in the direction that Giselda was driving. I reached out, searching blindly for Logan’s hand. He caught my hand before pulling me onto his lap.
“It’s okay, Annie. I promise that I will be by your side the entire time. They just want to know who exactly is going to be their Alpha Sow. If you want, I can have Giselda park in the garage and take you inside away from everyone’s prying eyes. You do not have to make an appearance in front of the sleuth until you are ready,” he told me.
I sighed before squeezing his hand. “If I’m going to be your Alpha Sow, I should stand beside you.”
He kissed my hand. “And I will be proud every second you are there.”
“You’re silly,” I giggled.
We pulled up in front of a large blue and white mansion, and Giselda slowed down to avoid hitting one of the many people who were all vying to peer into the car’s windows. She cursed under her breath as she was forced to slam on her brakes. She threw the car in park before jumping out of the car.
“GET THE FUCK BACK! LET US FUCKING PARK AND THEN MAYBE YOU WILL GET TO MEET! SHEESH!” She yelled at them as she let her aura out to force them to comply.
They all scrambled to clear a path for the car as Giselda climbed back in. She continued to mumble quietly as she drove the rest of the way to the mansion before getting out, growling loudly at the sleuth as she walked around to Logan’s door to open it. He turned toward me, smiling softly.
“Are you sure about this?” He asked.
“No, but I want to do this. I want to support you,” I answered.
He kissed me tenderly before climbing out of the car and holding his hand out to me. I hesitantly took it and he helped me out of the car. I gripped his hand tightly as he led me up to the wraparound porch, trying to hide behind him without seeming like that was what I was doing. When he turned around to face the sleuth, he stepped in front of me, blocking me almost entirely from view. I smiled slightly behind his back as he addressed the sleuth.
“I know a lot of you have heard the rumors that our Alpha Sow has come back with me, and I just want to confirm that she did. Her name is Annaria, which I am aware that all of you know is the woman that I chose to be my chosen mate. Upon meeting her, we realized that we were also fated mates. She had come back with me to claim her place beside me. I do ask that during this transition, you all be patient with us. Annaria, Giselda, and I are new to the alphaship, but we are all more than eager to step into this role. We will do our best to make this transition smooth for not just us, but all of you as well. Are there any questions?” Logan fell silent for a moment before chuckling. “Yes, Niles?”
“Mommy said that our Alpha Sow was young,” a little boy called out, making me peek around Logan’s arm to eye the child.
“She is, yes,” Logan answered.
“Can we see her?” Niles asked.
Before Logan could reply, I stepped around him, pressing my arm against his for comfort. I smiled widely at the little boy.
“It’s nice to meet you, Niles.”
He beamed at me. “Your eyes are nice. Do you like to play soccer? We need a new coach.”
Logan chuckled again as he turned toward me. “My mother was their coach,” he explained. “Since she is no longer able to coach, they will need a new one, but no one expects you to take the job. I will find someone.”
I squeezed his hand. “It’s okay. I’ll do it. I would love the opportunity to get to know the sleuth.”
An older man stepped forward with his arms crossed over his chest. “What do you know about being an Alpha Sow?”
Logan growled warningly at him. “Watch how you speak to her, Ryan!” He hissed.
I put my other hand on Logan’s arm. “It’s okay,” I murmured before meeting Ryan’s eyes. “My mother is Alpha Sow Natasha. I am sure you all know who she is. I have five sisters. We were all trained to be Alpha Sows. We are aware of what it takes to be a good alpha sow, and I can assure you that I will do my best to make sure that I am for your sleuth.”
“Hmmmm. Are you aware that our sleuth is different from yours? We do not allow multiple mates here!” Ryan snapped.
“RYAN!” Logan roared.
I trembled beside Logan as fear swept through me with how loud and sudden his voice came out. I licked my lips.
“I do not need or want multiple mates. I only need and want Logan.”
Ryan narrowed his eyes on me even more. “Are you the one that he killed his father for?”
I looked up at Logan, unsure of how to respond. Logan let my hand go to wrap an arm around my waist so he could pull me closer to his side.
“That is none of your business,” Logan told him.
“IS SHE?” Another man shouted from the back of the sleuth.
Logan bared his teeth. “My father was weak! That is why he died. Yes, I challenged him because I was missing something. It’s not Alpha Sow Annaria’s fault that she was what I was missing.” He let me go to take a step toward the stairs. “And if you keep up this line of negativity toward our alpha sow, her face will be the last one you ever see. Am I understood?” Logan snarled. When Ryan didn’t respond, Logan stomped down the stairs to grab him around the throat. “AM I UNDERSTOOD?!”
Ryan clawed at his hand, struggling to breath before nodding. Logan let him drop to the ground before standing over him with his shoulders heaving angrily.
“Does anyone else want to attack my mate?” He said with a calmness that made his fury even more evident.
“No, Alpha Logan,” the sleuth said in sync.
“Good! You are dismissed.”
Logan waited until everyone was out of sight before coming back up to me. He threw me over his shoulder, causing me to erupt into a fit of giggles as he carried me up the stairs. When I accidentally kneed him in the stomach, he grunted and spanked me. Moments later, I was tossed onto a bed where I bounced as I watched him begin to strip.
“I told you, Annie.”
“Told me what?” I asked breathlessly.
“That naughty girls get punished,” he murmured as he covered my body with his own. “And you were such a good, naughty girl…”
