The Alphas’ P**n Star Mate

Mick POV

When Miles and Chloe walked back into the room minutes later, Chloe had a shy look on her face and my brother seemed more relaxed than he had been all day. I felt more relaxed with Chloe's emotions exuding less hostility than before. "Hey cara mia," I crooned, opening my arms as Chloe walked towards me. She smiled at my Italian nickname for her in that sultry way that always gets me going. I kissed her head, and then her nose. "Did you have a good talk?" She looked back shyly at my brother, and he gave her a reassuring smile. "Yes," she said softly.

"Good," I leaned in and whispered in her ear. "Because we need to have a talk too later. About a gunshot."

Her eyes narrowed. "It was just a scratch."

"Bull snarky," Winnie scoffed. "We had to bathe you thoroughly because of your scratch."

"What?" my brother huffed menacingly. His eyes darted to Winnie, assessing him, and then at the other men around the room. All of them were very gay, except maybe Cindy, who calls himself aromatic.

"You didn't do nothing," Riley said in mild outrage. "I did everything from washing her hair to washing her ass."

"You did not wash my ass," Chloe muttered in exasperation.

"Please tell me you didn't," Dave was frowning at his mate.

"He helped me wash my hair and my shoulder," Chloe said. "I couldn't really do it."

"I was there for emotional support," Winnie said, lifting his chin while straightening an already straight dress on a rack.

"Why would I need emotional support to wash Chloe's ass?"

"It was her smelly ass I was supporting. Not yours!" Winnie yelled back at Riley.

"My ass does not smell," Chloe muttered.

"Really?" I smirked, pulling her towards me. "Give it a sniff, Miles, so we can settle this for good."

Miles looked mortified, and so did Chloe. Cindy was pressing his lips together to keep from laughing. Riley looked amused, while Winnie looked grossed out. Dave just looked bored, looking at his phone while strumming mindless patterns on Riley's back.

"Um," a soft voice came from the doorway. The human girl Darren and now Billy are mated to was standing there, looking hesitant as I held my mate, bending her awkwardly for my brother. "Is.....Is this where we're having movie time?"

"Come on in, girl. We're just sniffing ass, and emotionally supporting one another in here. Come join in on the fun," Cindy said, waving a hand in the air, directing her to come in.

Chloe elbowed me in the gut so I let her go, then hurried over to the girl. "You can walk!" Chloe giggled, grabbing the girl's hands and pulling her into the room further. "I was about to come save you. Or have you save me," Chloe looked around the room accusingly. "There's not enough estrogen in here."

"What about Emily?" Riley asked. "Is she not coming?"

Miles and I exchanged a look. "She's, uh, helping Dez with something right now. She said she will take a rain check."

Miles and I grew anxious to see Chloe, especially after hearing what they were planning to do with our mate. So, we left the rest of the work to Dez and Emily was there helping him. Chloe took the girl's hand and skipped ahead with Cindy. They were heading to the theater room.

Emily POV

Yuck. I should have gone home to get closed-toe shoes. Blood just splattered all over my feet, staining my already red-painted toes.

"How?!" Dez snarled, backhanding the human man across his face, his sharp claws extended from his sexy blood-soaked hands. "How does your Mr. Smith know about this place?"

That has been the question of the day. One Miles and Mick were never able to get an answer to. They made the mistake of asking what our human invaders had planned for Chloe first, and then all of the rest of the investigation was Mick and Miles taking turns torturing our guest, sprinkling queries in between lashings and pulling out teeth. James, our bloody human assassin, passed out from Miles's questioning before he got a solid answer as to how they found out Chloe was here. Humans are so much more delicate than our kind and hearing what they planned on doing to Chloe made Miles go a bit mad at the end.

These humans, having seen Chloe's videos online before setting out to find her, had a sick agenda they were going to see through before handing her over to whoever the hell Mr. Smith is. We found their van along with paperwork for a chartered jet, a fake passport for Chloe, and a bag full of instruments that made my stomach church. This human had the nerve to call Miles a monster when he shifted right after that. Nothing is more monstrous than what they had planned to do to a woman James said was nothing but a whore and a porn star. Hearing the degradation of my future Luna had me seeing red too. I can only imagine how Miles and Mick were feeling. Miles almost killed the human, but we still needed answers. Dez suggested letting us take over and he and Mick could calm themselves with their mate. Now that James is awake again, Dez is trying to find out how they found Setting Sun to begin with. We were not on any maps, and Lenny said they made sure there was nothing left to track them here.

Dez, with no shirt on and blood all over his chest, picked up the pliers. James had already lost most of his teeth, and closed his lips tightly to prevent the loss of more. Dez wasn't going for his mouth though. He was going for his nails. When James saw that, he started to scream. "NOOO! NOOOO! I'll talk! Please! NO!"

"You said you would talk before, yet we still have no answers," Dez hummed quietly, a menacing air to his tone. "I don't believe you." He began moving the pliers closer to his hand that was being held tightly in his fist.

"I'll talk!" Snotty, bloody tears were sticking to the grime on his face. "Please! PLEASE!" He screamed desperately as Dez put the pliers in place.

"Then talk," Dez said in a deadly soft voice. "I'm listening"
