Elise had made up her mind to journey back to the Silver Night Pack, her childhood home. Rygan was all on board since she asked him to accompany her.
But all the more His wolf was elated to be declared her mate; he could feel his love for her almost burst like a dam as he became ravenous to taste her again.
They had shared most of the morning in bed, with Rygan taking his sweet time worshipping her body with endless lovemaking, Elise then takes the initiative, straddling her alpha and riding him as he palmed her breast.
Her insides clench as her hips roll and grind on his cock as they both moaned; she’d then take his ring finger into her mouth, biting it enough that it drew blood.
She then left an identical mark on his; it feels like their souls were entirely entwined as she’s accepted him as her mate. Their climax was more intense than usual, as they’d both cum with a blinding ecstasy.
They didn’t stop there, as time and time again he buried himself into her wet, inviting sex, till they both smelled heavily with their mixed scent. "Well, isn’t this a good way to wake up in the morning?” he crooned with a kiss to her breast.
Elise shivered from the feel of his lips; she pushed her hands into his curls, playing with them as Rygan played in her chest, feeling her heartbeat, kissing the middle expanse of her stomach before he fully stood up.
Elise watched his naked frame with a blush. As the sun fully illuminated his sweaty muscles as he fully turned to her, taking her features and her porcelain-covered skin now covered in bite marks, a grin played on his lips, proud of his own doing.
“You are breathtaking, my love; look at how beautiful you are covered in my seed and scent, darling,” Rygan muttered as he walked over to the side of the large king-size bed.
“And as much as I like to be covered in you and smell entirely of you all day... I need to meet with my betas; that means I need a bath,“ she noted, knowing it was time to wash up, but before she could get one leg down, she let out a yelp when Rygan had swooped in.
The alpha then carried her up in bridal style to her tub. Taking his time and washing her body. But one gaze at each other made their resolve break as they lunged for each other; their joining was fast and urgent. They spent another soaking minute with Elise riding Rygan’s cock in the tub before they got dressed.
They head to the private oval room. Elise preferred to meet her betas in a private room where they could all talk with no interruptions. Knowing that they needed to be careful, especially now.
Elise sits down on a long sofa, her legs bent in. She watches Rygan walk around the large room, its walls painted a creamy dark beige that accentuates the dark green sofa and patterned armchair in the room.
By another small joined room, a large table with the map of the surrounding packs lay with my plans. There was a large golden telescope that intrigued Rygan as he looked through it. "Fascinating,” he muttered, being able to see into the pack's town, and the patterned sky looked so close and beautiful from it.
Elsie couldn’t help a smile glaze her lips. “It is a marvelous view,” she muttered, but when Rygan turned to her, the alpha saw her eyes were on him, and a smile spread on his lips as he walked over to her.
“You best be careful with your words, my love, or I might just take you right now on the sofa.”
Her eyes glistened with amusement yet held so much love it hurt Rygan when he recalled he was the one that caused her so much pain, enough to shroud and hide her real feelings for him. For her to feel insecure and unsure all this while.
His hands sneak around her nape and plant a blissful and love-filled kiss on her forehead. Pouring all his affection into it. As his palm caressed her face.
Now that there wasn’t any sex to distract her, he could still see the pain and worry in her strained smile for the imprisoned people in Kyren's pack. “Don’t worry, my love, we will get them out,” he assured.
“Kyren will pay for what he’s done.” She mutters
“I still don’t understand that bastard; why would he help us with Fitz’s information? What was the catch?” Rygan wonders.
“I think..he wanted me to kill Dexton, to give the finishing blow instead of him so no blame would come to him and the silver night pack would be his, and with my anger and resentment for that monster, I played right into his manipulative game.”
“No, Dexton's death was justified for what he did to your mother and you; you were fearless and strong for doing it, darling, and I love you every day for that, my brave, beautiful mate,” he mutters with a squeeze to her hands that makes Elise's heart soar as she leans over to kiss him. But the door was opened by Jax, with Michale and Brady behind him who froze.
“We’re sorry, I think we interrupted.”
“No, come in.” Elise called, and three of the betas trailed in, their gaze all moving to Rygan’s direction and to see his possessive hold on Elise.
They gave themselves discreet looks with silent questions heavy on their tongue but said no words as they bowed their heads to Elise, “Luna, you called for us; is there a problem?”
“Yes, as you all know, a wounded girl came to the palace in need of help yesterday,” she explains as Jax nods.
"Yes, Luna, the moment she was taken to the clinic, we had our spies head to the silver night borders to send word if what she was saying was true..and it is.”
“You didn’t have to go through all that.”
“We would do anything to protect you, but we also had to have a bit of doubt and wanted to be careful and unsafe. It was Kyren that sent her, but we found out what she said is true,” Jax informs Cooly. Three of the betas hands were folded behind their backs and their gazes stoic. Leaving Rygan impressed by how efficient and fast they were.
“Then you know I cannot sit idly; I have to help these people; that is my home—my old home, but still,” she corrected. She feels a firm caress on her hands; she looks to Rygan’s assuring gaze.
The beta trio's hard exterior crumbled, and their gaze became a bit softer, understanding how kind their Luna was and never looking away from the suffering or torment of anyone who needed help.
“Whatever you need from us, we are here to protect and serve you with our hearts, Luna,” they swear with a hand to their chest.
“Thank you,” she replied with a kind smile. She knew she hadn’t leaned on them for help much after Hayden’s death, but they were all sworn to protect her as their Luna.
“So what do you want us to prepare? An army into Kyrens pack Luna?” Brady's brows furrowed in question.
“No, he will see us coming from a mile away and would likely kill all the hostages; I just need a small group; I need you three and Rygan; then we will send for reinforcements in three days,” she says to the beta.
“I will leave Abby in charge; she is a trusted elder and will be sure to keep our whereabouts a secret till we have completed the mission of freeing those innocent prisoners from Kyren's clutches,” she called with a calmed rage.
Elise could only imagine the pain they were going through in Kyren's torture cells; she was going to make Kyren pay for all the deaths that he’s caused.
She looks at the trio and her mate, all ready to fight with and for her. As she gives the words.
“We leave by dawn.”
