Axel’s touch was different; so gentle and light it was almost inexistent.
He thrust into me again, and I bit my lips not to make a sound. My legs circled around his waist, the hunger in me building up, and in some way he knew–he knew exactly what I wanted.
He turned over so I was on top, letting me take the lead. I rode him, going faster, our breaths coming out laboured, my hands trailing his body; he seemed to like my touch. I moved faster, and his hands circled around my waist, guiding me so I wouldn’t fall over.
“Axel…” I called out, pausing, but he wouldn’t have that. He led me by the waist, and I let out a loud moan. I cummed, taking him along. I felt the warm liquid in me.
I fell over his body, wanting to remain in this position. I didn’t want to think about anything else, and Axel gave me a few minutes to settle before placing me on the bed, besides him. He didn’t leave though; he stayed, watching me as I lapsed into a deep sleep.
Axel was gone by the time I awoke.
I wondered what exactly was the relationship between I and Axel.
Something on the desk piqued my attention.
Was that… Barbara’s fantasies? I remembered tossing it into the bin, but re–deciding that I’d at least return it to the library; I had hid it beneath our bed.
How could I have forgotten about it so soon? And what was it doing there on the table…
“There’s a lot to learn from that one single book,” Thane said, walking towards me, a towel handing low around his waist. I focused on his face because if I did look down, I wasn’t going to be getting myself back anytime soon. (1
“I was about to return it back to the library,” I said to him.
“Not yet; I really love this book, maybe even as much as you do.”
“Thane… let’s talk.”
He walks towards me. “Are you ready for that?” he asked, and I would have sworn I saw a flicker of worry in his eyes, just as I had also seen the panic when he took me out of the tub. 1
“Yes. I am so sorry for what I said to you. I said it to hurt you, but I didn’t mean any of it. Your mate was a blessing. I should never have brought her up. I should never have used that against you, and I am so sorry. Could you forgive me?”
“Oh Riley, don’t cry. You were not the only person who said something very wrong. I knew the story of your mother, and I was going to tell you either way, but I didn’t mean to be that harsh

on you.’
My mother’s past now haunts me too. I let out a shaky breath. “How did you know about that?… my mother I mean”
“I saw it. I was a child then, but I knew about this woman–she was younger then, but she had been my father’s favorite; she was exactly his type, the stubborn ones that hardly ever submitted; it would be much more fun to break her. But when father decided she was no fun anymore, I stopped seeing her. There were others after her too, but it was strange how she seemed to have disappeared and was never talked about anymore.”
“Thane… how old are you?” I questioned. Looking at him, he seemed young, maybe in his early twenties, a few years older than I was, but maybe I could be wrong.
“Thirty and two,” Thane answered.
My mouth dropped. I couldn’t believe he was almost thirteen years older than me, and yet he looked so… young. “You are over a decade older than me,” I say. 1
“You are not under aged, are you?” He asks, or rather states, I’ll bet he knew how old I was.
“No, I’m not.”
“But I wouldn’t really care if you were.”
“Isn’t that against some law?” I questioned, noticing how close we were to each other now.
“Just in case you didn’t know, I am a complete lawbreaker.”
“You look really young,” I say to him.
“I do believe it’s part of the Alpha gene. I’m well aware that I look maybe a decade younger,” he says. I had never heard of that; yes, wolves in general, age slower than humans, but I had never heard of Alpha’s having a different span from the other wolves.
“Can I ask a question, Thane?”
“Depends on what it is?”
“Did you pick me because you discovered who my mother was to this pack?” I questioned, trying to keep my voice as cool as possible.
“Yes. A few years ago, I saw this file belonging to your mother. I had almost forgotten about her, but for some reasons, I wanted to know where she was, what she was doing, and if she was finally free. I got all the details even before I visited the Windborne pack. But then I saw you, and things got even more interesting. I knew everything about you too; that’s how I knew about Ryker, your ex–mate. I had paid an anonymous visit to the pack more than once, and I did like watching you.”
“You knew my mother was a slave there?, and yet you waited for me to bring it up?” I asked, so many emotions going through my mind, He had waited for me to bring up my mother’s issue before he made the negotiations. I didn’t know whether to be afraid or amused.
