Chapter One Hundred: The Hunt begins
I shifted, popping sounds filled the air as bones cracked and my muscles and tendons moved back into
place. Travis smiled at me from the porch, he had pulled on a white t-shirt. His dark hair was brushed
back from his face, neatly into place. Three water bottles were in his arms, the condensation dripping
onto his tattooed skin.“
My mark showed on his throat and I swallowed hard. He was mine.
Walking up the wooden steps to the pack house, I smiled at him. “Did you get the sheets done?”
There was a popping and cracking sound behind me as Jason and Aaron shifted into their human
forms. Travis looked away from me, his eyes traveling over Jason’s body with a hungry expression.
Stepping closer to my other mate, I pressed my body against his. “Brat, you didn’t answer my
question.”.
His bright green eyes moved back to me and his lips twitched as he tried to keep from grinning. “The
sheets are all done, daddy. 1 picked up the clothing and started another load in the wash. The
bathroom is all tidy now, too.”
“Good, I’ll have to reward you later.” I growled and his body shook. Smirking, I turned away from him
and made my way over to the clothing that I had left on the front porch. Pulling on my jeans, I buttoned
them up before grabbing my shirt and pulling it on.
I didn’t bother with the buttons, after a run like that. I needed a shower, I couldn’t go to see Tillie
smelling like sweat and the forest. It would have my beast too on edge after thinking about chasing her
or watching the others chase her.
Travis held out a water for me and I took it from him, our fingers brushing against each other. Sparks
moved along my skin and this time, I was the one who shook.
“Thanks,” I said, pulling the water bottle back and twisting the lid off. Lifting the water bottle to my lips, I
took a long pull from the plastic bottle. Aaron jogged up the steps, taking a water bottle from Travis. He
had pulled on his shorts but hadn’t bothered with anything else.
“Congrats on the mating thing.” He said, motioning between the two of us as he cracked open the
water bottle and took a long drink. “I don’t just mean with both of you, but with Tillie, too.” “Same to you,
man,” I said, looking at the mark on his neck. “Seems like last night was a good one for all of us.” “Sure
was, though you did fuck up our set.” He chuckled and I couldn’t help but shake my head.
“Sorry about that, you should blame Travis, though. He had our mate up in his office.” I shrugged,
looking over at Travis and he
shot me a sly grin.
“I regret nothing.”
Jason came up the steps to take a water from Travis. He was fully dressed and looking just as
handsome as he normally did. His blonde hair fell around his face in tousled waves that looked soft to
the touch. “That was a good run. Thank you, guys.”
“Anytime you want to run, alpha. You know I’m game.” Aaron said, lifting his water bottle with a salute.
“Next time you should join us, Travis.” He said, but his tone had changed. Slipping into that almost
commanding purr.
I could hear Travis’ heart beat faster. His tongue moved over his lower lip and he looked down at the
floor before looking up at
Jason again. “That’s not all I could join you for, sir.”
“Okay, so that’s a thing?” Aaron asked and I nodded.
“We’re still figuring things out with each other and our mate.” I said, finishing off my water and crushing
the bottle.
“That’s cool, unexpected. But cool.” Aaron was just as stoic as ever. It was like he saved all of his
emotions for the stage. That worked for us, but it made me worry about him. I just hoped that he could
communicate with Charity better than we had been with Tillie.
The three of us chatted for a bit before Aaron’s cell phone chimed with a message. He moved over to
his shoes and shirt that sat beside the porch. Picking up his phone, he walked up the steps to us, his
thumb swiping over the screen.
“It’s a text from Charity.” He said, his brows knitting together as he looked at the screen. His adam’s Content (C) Nôv/elDra/ma.Org.
apple bobbed as he . swallowed. His hand moved up to pull at the dark brown strands of his thick hair
before he looked at us. “She said Tillie’s running and she’s worried that she might not come back.
“She’s running?” Travis asked and I looked over at him. There was an excited gleam in his eyes as he
shifted from foot to foot.
“Yeah,” Aaron said, looking up from the screen. “Charity’s worried. She said that Tillie was going to-”
“No, don’t tell us,” Jason said, holding up his hand. There was a calculating look in his eyes as he
looked from Travis to me. “We’ll give her a head start and it’s better if we don’t know. It will make the
hunt more interesting.”
“We’re hunting her?” Travis bounced on the balls of his feet, sharp teeth peeked out from behind his
lips and I felt excitement thrum through my veins. Feeding into what my wolf was feeling.
“Yes, we are hunting our mate.” Jason answered and I nodded.
There was just one thing that Tillie had forgotten about us. We were wolves and wolves loved the
chase, the hunt. We were going to hunt her down and when we caught her, we were never going to let
her go…
