Chapter 23

**Lana**

I yawned as I woke up from my nap and smiled to myself. Sighing out, I looked at Gabriel still sleeping soundly. His dark curls clung to his forehead as his chest slowly rose and fell. An eerie feeling washed over me all of a sudden. It was a feeling you get when it feels like you’re being watched. Shaking my head, I pushed those thoughts away. It must be my witchy powers acting up again.
Yep.
That’s the reason.
I stepped into the bathroom and glanced in the mirror from the side. My stomach was starting to swell revealing a small bump. I felt a pair of arms wrap around me from behind and place a kiss on my neck. Jaxson pressed his chest to my back. “Have a good sleep?”
“Yes, but I missed feeling you pressed up against my ass.” I purred as my pregnancy hormones kicked in. In the past few weeks, I’ve been extremely horny. Most women craved food, but not me. I mean sure I’ve craved certain foods, but nothing feeds my hunger as much as his cock does.
I need it.
My wolf craves it.
“As much as I would love nothing more than fuck you, I can’t right now. My father’s witch is going to be here within the hour, and I have to discuss some things with him.” He ran his tongue over his mark and kissed it. My back arched when tingling ran through my body making me want him to take me right here on the sink.
He groaned when I pushed my ass back teasing his wolf. Jaxson was having a hard time breathing and keeping his wolf under control. His eyes flashed red making him close his eyes searching for a calming sensation. When he finally opened them back up, he was back to his normal self.
He laced his fingers with mine as we stepped out of the bathroom and led me to the bed. He gently pushed me down, and licked his lips when I looked up to him in lust. Unlacing our fingers, he leaned down with our faces inches apart. “You are such a little tease.”
My breath hitched in my throat when he kissed me, and sucked on my bottom lip. His arms were propped on each side of my head as his lips landed back on me. He was making my wolf crazy with excitement. He reached over and traced my cheek as he pulled away. “Take care of our little boys.”
“Don’t you mean little girl and boy.” I smiled coyly, rubbing my belly.
He shook his head, chuckling to me. “It’s going to be a boy.”
Before I could get another word in, he had already left the room. I sighed knowing it would be better if it were a boy. If we had a daughter, he would definitely keep the unmated wolves away when she got older. I would cross that bridge if I ever had to. A voice makes me turn with wide eyes. “Da Da.”
I scooped him up in my arms with tears streaming down my face. “Let’s go tell daddy.”
I ran downstairs and went straight to his office only to find it empty. I looked around and nothing seemed to be out of the ordinary. I wanted to tell him the good news. Gabriel bounced squealing in my arms. “Da Da.”
“Oh my god, he’s talking!” Gisselle gushed, taking him from my arms.
Gisselle had been taken and has been recovering. She was healed on the outside, but I knew that on the inside she was still hurting. I knew what that felt like to be damaged and not know how to cope. Lorenzo tried to bend me into submission, but I never folded. My wolf wouldn’t let me and for that, I’m grateful for.
“Jaxson will be back. He had some things to do with his father.”
I followed her down the hallway towards the kitchen when all of a sudden I could hear voices whispering. It was happening to me again. The voices were chanting louder as I braced myself against the wall. Jaxson’s mother was at my side in an instant worried for me. “What’s happening?
Shaking my head, I stopped her from coming any closer. “Please, I don’t want to hurt anyone.”
I could feel the energy surging through my body as my eyes glowered. It’s never been this strong before and I can’t understand why. It has to be someone doing this to me. I closed my eyes and tried to focus on something to calm me down. I opened my eyes back up to find I wasn’t in the house anymore. I was in a forest somewhere I’d never been.
A woman around my age slightly resembling me stood before me smiling. “Lana, I don’t have much time.”
“Who are you?” I was confused.
“It’s me, Tara. Your sister. I need you to take my magic so Lorenzo can’t find it.” She took my hand and I could feel the energy from her enter my body. My body shook and then all I saw was darkness.
When I woke back up, I was in a bed and a worried Jaxson was hovering over me.
“Are you hurt?” I shook my head, and then I remembered my vision.
“Jaxson. I saw her.”
“Saw who?”
“Tara.”
***
**Jaxson**

Her words rang over in my head as Tara’s name slipped from her lips.
“Tara is dead.”
“I know, but I know what I saw.” She argued.
Laying down next to her, I pulled her body close to me. I needed to feel her on me to keep my wolf calm. She looked up at me and I knew then her hormones were taking over her body. She ran her fingers through my hair and whispered. “Where were you?”
“Father and I went to make sure his witch made it here safely. Right now I don’t want to talk about that.”
She unbuttoned my pants and slid the zipper down painfully slowly. I could feel the vibrations through my pants making me grow hard. Taking my cock in her hands, she pumped me hard. “Tell me what you want.”
“I want you to ride me.” I panted leaning on the headboard. I scanned her body and smirked as I slid down my pants to my thighs. Pumping myself, I wiggled it at her. “Come sit on me, baby.”
She straddled me, and I slid it inside her. She rolled her hips; moaning in my ear as I thrust deeper inside her. She gripped the headboard giving me the chance to take a nipple in my mouth. I swirled my tongue around it as she bounced up and down on me. “Jaxson!”
Gripping her hips, I guided her up and down. I released her nipple and growled as she continued to ride me nice and hard. “You feel so good.”
We were both panting and moaning as the bed creaked with each thrust. I’m sure whoever was in the house probably hated us right now. We weren’t being quiet, and I didn’t want to. I wanted every male in the pack to know who she belonged to. I could feel her body tense up and squeeze my cock, making me thrust even harder as her hips worked me over. “Here it comes, baby.”
“Fuck me harder!” She ordered me, as she came around me just as I felt the jets of hot cum shoot deep inside of her. She collapsed on my chest still breathing hard.
“I’m loving these hormones.” I pecked her lips as she looked up.
A knock at the door broke us from our daze. I could hear my father’s voice through the door. “If you’re done, then meet me in the office. The witch needs to see Lana.”
When we entered my office, a slim woman with shoulder-length hair stood there next to my father. “My name is Lucinda, and you must be Lana.”
Lana nodded, and shook her hand. “Now, let’s get a handle on these powers of yours.”
Now that the witch has arrived to help Lana; I can finally focus on hunting down Lorenzo and dragging him back here to torture him. His death wasn’t going to be a quick one; because of what he did to that woman he drained, and left lying dead at the border. I kissed Lana and whispered. “I’ll be back.”
Stepping out of the room, my father followed me to my bedroom. I turned to him, turning up the music to drown out our voices. “We have a traitor among us.”
He cocked his head to the side. “What?”
“I said we have a traitor, and I know exactly who it is.” I knew the bastard had been conspiring against me ever since the incident and was planning his revenge.
“Who is it?” He clenched his jaw.
“I think you know the answer to that. It makes sense as to how they got mother so easily, and knew exactly who James’ daughter was.”
