The Alpha's Runt

The next morning, everyone’s saying their goodbyes with kisses and bear hugs. Luna Jenna’s smothering Mira with kisses, her motherly love overwhelming.

Tears are shed, promises to call and visit are made. Aqua and Roman are also leaving, but they’re moving into their own house, a union blessed by Alpha James.

Alpha James only has one condition for the newly mated couple: they have to live in the house right next to his and Luna Jenna’s. They’re more than happy to agree.

Delta Roman’s saying his goodbye to his sister-in-law and her Alpha mate, placing a box on the floor labeled “my shit.” Aqua’s wiping away her tears as she hugs her little sister.

“You’d better call me... like all the time... like every five minutes or less.”

Alpha Phoenix wraps his arms around Mira’s waist, pulling her back against him. “I’ll be keeping her pretty busy moaning and screaming out my name, so...”

Mira blushes, turning in his embrace and slapping his chest, laughing. “Oh my God, I can’t believe you just said that!” she whispers, making him chuckle at her flushed face.

Phoenix holds her close, his other hand cupping her chin, leaning down to kiss the tip of her nose. Delta can’t resist joining in on the sisterly banter.

“I have an idea. You both can moan your pleasures on the phone as...”

Aqua punches his chest, making both Phoenix and Roman laugh. “Don’t you dare finish that sentence.”

The men fist-bump each other, making both sisters blush.

Alpha James comes back out holding Mira’s violin case. His smile doesn’t reach his eyes as he looks at Mira’s beautiful face. “My baby girl.”

Phoenix lets her go so she can run into her father’s open arms.

“I’m going to miss you so much.” He hands Phoenix the violin case. She takes it and places it in the trunk of the car.

Mira’s tears flow down her rosy cheeks as she smiles up at her loving father. “I... I’m going to miss you too.”

He wipes her tears with his thumbs. He looks at Phoenix then back at Mira. “Alpha Phoenix will protect and take care of you. You can trust him with your life.”

Mira nods, knowing her father’s words are true. “I know, Daddy,” she whispers.

Phoenix clears his throat, breaking up the father-daughter moment. “We have to go, Mira. We have a long drive.”

The Alphas shake hands. Phoenix helps Mira into the car, buckling her in safely, making Mira roll her eyes at his overprotectiveness.

Phoenix chuckles, kissing her forehead, cheek, nose, chin, then her lips, which he lingers on longer. “Mmm, delicious.”

Mira blushes with a full smile.

Phoenix walks around to the driver’s seat and buckles himself in. The back passenger doors shut hard on both sides.

Phoenix looks in his rearview mirror, smirking at Dalton, who keeps getting his hand pushed off the thighs of an extremely annoyed Misty.

“Keep your fuckin’ hands off of me, you bitch-ass jerk,” she says through gritted teeth. “Touch me again and I’ll break your fuckin’ hand.”

Dalton touches his chest as if her words just pierced his heart. “B... but jellybean... why are you so mean to me?”

Misty’s eyebrows raise in question, as do Phoenix and Mira’s, at Dalton’s term of endearment. “Don’t... ever... call... me... that... again!” Misty growls as she points a finger at him.

They continue to bicker back and forth.

Phoenix rubs his temple as he glances at Mira. “This is going to be a long ride.”

Mira simply nods as she sighs along with him. “Hey guys, why don’t we just listen to music and make the ride more...” Mira starts, but Phoenix finishes her sentence.

“Tolerable!” he growls out. “I’d love to hear music, Mira. Please, just play something... anything.”

Misty rolls her eyes when Dalton winks at her.

“I have a better idea,” Phoenix adds. “I’d just rather not see either of you.” He presses a button and an instant black divider closes him and Mira off from the two bickerers.

The drive for the next four hours is drama-free.

Phoenix quickly pulls over at a gas station to refuel his car, with the second SUV parking not far behind.

Mira and Misty jump out to stretch as well as head inside the gas station convenience store to buy some drinks and snacks.

Phoenix orders two of his men to pump gas in both cars as he and Dalton go into the store. Misty’s holding a basket full of munchies Mira keeps picking out.

Dalton grabs two six-packs of beer, smirking at Misty as he passes her. She rolls her eyes as she takes a deep breath.

“I’m going to sit in the other SUV, okay, Mira? I can’t believe Alpha Phoenix had the divider pulled up. I had to deal with that jerk’s wandering hands and lips.

“I can’t take that asshole for the rest of the ride back to the Crystal Moon Pack.”

Mira chuckles, knowing her sister well enough to know she really likes Dalton. Misty’s a great warrior. She could have easily caused severe damage but chose not to.

Mira notices a hickey peeking out of her sister’s shirt collar as Misty heads toward the cashier, dumping all the snacks on the counter.

Dalton appears, giving the cashier his credit card. “I’ll pay for the snacks, jellybean.”

Misty squints her eyes at him but decides not to say anything. She requests a separate bag and places Mira’s snacks in it while she holds her own bag of goodies.

Phoenix takes Mira’s bag from her then holds her small hand in his much larger ones.

Mira feels a storm of tingles throughout her body from Phoenix’s contact, all thanks to the mate bond. Phoenix stops walking to look down at Mira with his eyes full of lust.

“Dalt, I need a break from driving,” he hollers, tossing the keys to Dalton. He opens the back door, helps Mira in, and then hops in after her.

Dalton spots Misty heading toward the other SUV and he doesn’t like it one bit. “Hey, jellybean! Where are you off to?”

Misty rolls her eyes and turns around. “I’m riding in this car . . .”

Dalton’s growl is so loud it seems to shake the trees. “Get your ass back here right now!” He slams the door shut and strides toward her. “I’m driving, and I want you up front with me.”

Ignoring him, Misty hops into the front passenger seat, only to be scooped up and tossed over Dalton’s shoulder.

“Dalton, you cock-sucking parasite . . . OUCH!” She rubs her butt cheek. “Did you just . . .?” She growls, but Dalton just chuckles.

“You liked it, and don’t deny it ’cause I can smell your arousal.” He scores a point when Misty doesn’t deny it. He opens the door and settles her in the passenger seat.

Misty buckles her seat belt and notices the divider is still up. She’s about to open it when she hears Phoenix growl and Mira giggle. She decides to leave them be.

She pops open a can of Mountain Dew and a bag of chips. Dalton slides into the driver’s seat and starts the car. He glances at Misty.

“Don’t you ever try to get away from me again, jellybean.”

Misty half-smiles and flips him off, making Dalton laugh.

Finally, the cars are back on the road and heading home.

Phoenix kisses Mira deeply, his hands roaming over her body.

“Phoenix,” Mira gasps, “can you crack a window open please?”

Phoenix smirks as he kisses her collarbone. “Getting too hot, munchkin?” His hand glides up her side then cups her breast.

“Please, Nix?” Mira whispers breathlessly. Phoenix’s long arm reaches out to slide the window open a crack.

Once the cool air surrounds them, their passionate kiss resumes. “I can’t wait to get you home, Mira. I’m going to make you mine all night long.”

***

Phoenix is the first to jump out of the car when they arrive home. Dalton gets out and stretches his aching limbs, as does Misty.

Halley is holding Calypso’s hand when she lets go to run into her father’s open arms. Calypso squeals as she runs toward Phoenix. He lifts her up in the air and hugs her.

“How’s my little princess, huh? Did you miss me, sweetheart?” He tickles her belly, making her laugh.

“Yes, Daddy, I missed you this much.” She opens her little arms as wide as she could to show him, making Phoenix laugh.

Halley walks up to the duo smiling. “Welcome back home, Nix.”

Phoenix kisses his mother on the forehead.

“Did you bring the surprise, Daddy?” her little voice asks with excitement.

Phoenix turns to the car, still holding Calypso in his arms. “Come on out, Mira. I want you to meet our family.”

Everyone gathers around, curious to know who their Alpha has chosen as his mate.

The door opens slowly and a small figure finally reveals herself. Mira closes the door behind her and nervously looks at the curious crowd staring at her.

Some gasp, wide-eyed, while others just remain speechless. Phoenix puts down Calypso, still holding her hand as he walks up to Mira.

“Calypso, sweetheart, this is my surprise. Her name is Mira, my mate.”

Mira looks down at the sweet little girl smiling. “Hello, Calypso. I’m so happy to finally meet you.”

Calypso looks at Mira, then her father, then back at Mira. “Hi, Miwa.” She giggles. “You are so pretty, and your eyes are my favorite color.”

Mira smiles at the way Calypso pronounces her words. “Thank you, Calypso, and I think you are beautiful.”

Halley walks up to them smiling. “So, you’re the girl that stole my big brute son’s heart.” It’s not a question. “I’m Halley, his mother.” She points to Phoenix. “Welcome to the Crystal Moon Pack.”

She surprises Mira by hugging her. Halley looks toward Misty. “And who is this beautiful young lady?”

Misty is about to introduce herself when Dalton cuts her off. “That’s my mate. Lady Misty, Mira’s sister. Well, one of the triplets.”

Misty rolls her eyes. “I am NOT his mate. He is right about the triplet thing though. We’re triplets, and our sister Aqua is back home.”

Dalton pouts at Misty. “Oh, come on, jellybean.”

She glares at him. “I said don’t call me that!” she spits at him, annoyed.

“You have to tell me how you handled those two on your trip back home,” Halley whispers to Phoenix.

He rubs the back of his neck, ignoring the quarreling couple, and demands attention from his pack.

“Everyone, I want to introduce to you Mira, my mate and your Luna. You will give her the same respect you give me. Understood?” Phoenix’s voice rings out with authority.

Everyone voices out loud, “Yes, Alpha.”

Some of the ladies come forward with baskets full of gifts for Mira. “For you, Luna Mira. It’s our way of welcoming you to our pack and home.”

Mira smiles and thanks them as she accepts the baskets. Phoenix, Misty, and Halley take some of the baskets to help Mira carry them.

Calypso surprises both Mira and Phoenix when she grabs Mira’s hand. “Can I hold your hand?”

Mira grins at the little girl. “Sure thing, Calypso. I’d love to hold your hand too.” Calypso’s eyes light up at her words.

Mira glances at Phoenix, who returns her look with a warm smile.

“Mira, I’ll show you our room. Dalton, you show Misty to hers.” He throws a playful wink at Misty, who rolls her eyes and shakes her head in response.

“Let’s go, jellybean.” Dalton heads up the stairs without waiting for any objections.

Misty follows, her feet stomping up the stairs behind him.

Phoenix, holding three baskets in one hand, opens the door to his bedroom with the other. Their bedroom now. Calypso dashes inside, clambering onto the bed and bouncing on it.

Mira and Halley follow, setting the baskets on the floor by the walk-in closet. Phoenix comes in last, also placing the baskets on the floor.

“Princess, stop jumping on the bed. You have your own bed to jump on.”

As if just remembering she has her own bed, Calypso hops off her father’s bed and heads to her own room to bounce on her own.

“Good thing I had your room cleaned,” Halley whispers to Phoenix.

He nods gratefully as he hugs his mother. “Thanks, Mom.”

They both turn when they see two warriors bring in Mira’s belongings.

“Where should we put these, Luna Mira?”

Mira smiles and points toward the baskets on the floor.

“Alright, guys. Let’s give our Luna some space to unpack and get comfortable.” Halley winks at Mira then closes the door behind her.

Mira turns and gasps when she’s suddenly lifted up bridal-style and placed on the bed. Phoenix hovers over her, bearing most of his own weight.

He kisses her forehead, nose, lips, jawline, and neck. “Mmm, I’ve been waiting for this moment since the day we met.” He kisses her mark, making Mira arch her back with a seductive moan.

Phoenix growls as he pulls her shirt up to reveal her black bra. A bra that’s hiding her breasts from his sight and mouth.

“It unclasps from the front,” Mira whispers.

Somehow, she finds the courage, and her hands unclasp the bra for Phoenix. His eyes stare longingly at her full breasts.

Without any further delay, Phoenix’s mouth clamps over her erect nipple, sucking and softly biting it. Mira’s eyes close as her body reacts to the wet heat coming from his mouth.

Phoenix then gives the same attention to her other breast as his hand slides down her body to open her pants.

Mira’s small hands grab onto his soft, dark locks, tugging them as her breathing starts to pick up pace. “Phoenix,” she whispers longingly.

Phoenix opens her pants, sitting back as he pulls them off her legs. She watches as his teeth elongate and wonders with curiosity what he intends to do.

Phoenix smirks as he hooks his fingers over seam of her panties and rips them off her, making her gasp. He then spreads her legs, making her blush as he stares at her most intimate part.

Phoenix bends down, kissing and licking the inside of her thigh. When he reaches the space between her sex and upper thigh, he sinks his teeth, making Mira yelp for a couple of seconds.

Mira feels a wave of lust flow through her body as Phoenix makes his second mark.

All male wolves do this intimate marking on their mates. Other male wolves would smell who she was mated to and back away.

His teeth retreat, but now his tongue takes over by sliding up and down her moist slit. Phoenix’s fingers push apart her wet lips as his tongue dives into her entrance.

Mira squirms, pulling his head into her further, wanting to feel more of him.

He nips and sucks on her clit as he slides a finger into her tight tunnel. “Fuuuuccckkk, you taste so fucking good.” His finger massages her weak point, making Mira wiggle, hungry for more.

“Ph... Phoenix... I’m... I... ahhhhh.” She comes in his mouth, and he drinks it all, licking her clean.

Phoenix stands up, removing his shirt and throwing it on the floor somewhere in the room.

Mira watches as he opens his pants, sliding them down with his underwear. Her lavender eyes stare at his extremely large dick that stands erect.

Mira has never had sex and knows she should be scared, but for some reason she isn’t. If anything, she’s excited and can’t wait to have him inside her.

Mira spreads her legs as wide as she can, waiting for Phoenix to connect them as one. Phoenix climbs on top of her, positioning himself at her wet, eager core.

“Take me, Phoenix. Please, I want you so bad.” Mira’s hand wraps around his large, muscular shoulders.

Phoenix pushes himself inside of her inch by inch. Mira squeezes her eyes as his massive dick stretches her walls.

Phoenix groans in bliss, as does Mira every time he rubs against her second marking. Mira opens her lust-filled eyes, licking then biting her lower lip.

“Fuck, beautiful, you feel so good.”

She wraps her legs around his waist, using the balls of her heels to push him further inside her. Phoenix grabs her legs, placing them over his shoulders as he sits up.

Phoenix grabs Mira by her hips and begins pounding hard into her. Mira screams out his name as she begins to feel her climax about to erupt all over his cock.

“Come for me baby. Come all over my big cock.”

Right on cue, Mira comes hard on his cock as he spills his seed deep inside of her. After spilling every drop, Phoenix collapses beside her, pulling Mira into his side.

They both pant as their sweaty bodies glisten with proof of their lovemaking. Phoenix kisses the top of her sweaty head as she snuggles closer to him.

“That was amazing, Phoenix.” Mira can’t help but smile as she still feels the throbbing inside her.

“Yes, it was, and now,”—he pulls her out of bed as he stands up—“it’s time to shower and make love again.”

Mira squeals, jumping up on Phoenix, wrapping her legs around his waist.

“Ohhh, fuck yeah, baby,” Phoenix growls out before slamming the door to the bathroom shut.
