JAYSON
As much as I agree we need the help to win, I can't help but feel like a dick asking these kids to fight for me.
Still, I called everyone into Black Lake to a farm away from the prying eyes of the Unit. This is where the training center we set up sits. I wasnβt expecting any of them showing up, but out of 100, seventy showed. I was impressed and humbled because, truthfully, we've only known each other for five months and these kids proved theyβre loyal soldiers who would lay their lives down for friends. I just hope that wonβt be the case here.
Of course, all my friends show up. They donβt need an excuse to kick Dragon ass.
As I stand in front of the crowd, I lean to Deacon. "Is this everyone?"
He nods. "All that we could get a hold of. Wren's still trying."
Kale stood beside me. "They'll all fight. Just need to tell them when."
I swallow. "Ok."
I look out at the innocent faces staring up at me as they sit on the grass. I see me baby girl talking with Ash and I canβt help but feel so much for her. She makes me want to win. Iβm doing this not only for my pack, but for us, too.
I pace back and forth with my hands behind my back. "I'm sorry I had to pull you all from your families. I'll keep this short then you can all return back to break."
As I walk, I study the faces that are putting all their trust in my leadership. "What I'm asking of you is something I would never do unless I really needed your help. It's dangerous, but I trust your skills. I know your fighters. Damn good ones. I want you to know, that you are the best group of soldiers I've ever trained. I know I'm asking a lot, but we have children and elders here who need you to fight for them. To risk your lives. I know you'll do just that."
Hayden stands up and looks around at all the kids. "Alpha, we've all talked it over. There's nothing that's going to stop us from this fight. We're with you, Alpha. Isn't that right, guys."
Shane stands up. "That's right. Bro, we got your back." He nods adamantly to Hayden.
The group nods to me and their neighbors abs sounds of "yeah" and "That's right" come from the sea of heads.
I bite my lip and nod in agreement. "Thank you. Really. Now. We have just over a month. So, we need to train. We need to train hard. If you really want to fight, I'll be pushing you to the extreme. Our enemy is strong. Cunning. Fast. We need to be stronger, faster and smarter. The other thing, and this is extremely important, the Unit cannot get word of what we're doing. I'm running outside the box here. If the Unit knows what we're doing, the camp will most likely be shut down, most of you will be sent home and Black Lake will cease to exist. So, please. Not a word to anyone. I'll send messages out when the battle is happening. From this day forward, it's business as usual. Do I make myself clear?"
"Yes, Alpha." The group says.
"I said, do I make myself clear?" I arch a brow.
"YES, ALPHA!" They shout.
"Good. Now, this training center is open for use if you'd like to stay. If not, we'll work on getting you back to your families. Dismissed."
The kids get up and mingle around. I walk through them and Sarah finds me. "You're really good at speeches." She smiles.
"I just I hope I got through to them how serious this all is." I stuff my hand in my pocket and wrap my arm around her shoulder.
"They know." She says, watching her friends.
As I glance around, my eyes fall on Sean. His arms are crossed and he's glaring at me. I lean to Sarah. "I take it he didn't take the break up well."
She glances at him and turns back. "No. I don't blame him for being mad. Girl goes on vacation and comes back with another guy. That'll sting no matter who you are."
"Well, I hope it's not going to be a problem. We can afford a jilted lover right now." I run my hand down her back.
"He's really a sweet guy. He's here to fight. Not cause problems." She turns to me fixing my t shirt. "Now, why don't we get out of here and go somewhere... a little less crowded." She gives me a sultry look. I know what my baby wants.
I quickly look around, grab her hand and smirk. "Let's go." We break into a run across the field to a barn on the property.
Giggling, I open the barn door and pull us in. Spinning around, I pull her into me and bruise her lips in a hungry kiss. I walk us into a horse stall, grab her ass and lift her up. Her legs wrap around me as I put her back on the wall while I kiss the hell out her.
"You're so fucking sexy." I mumble, biting her full pouty lip.
I tear off her shirt and rip off her sport bra. I growl as I grab her perky tits and suck on her delicious pink nipples.
"Jayson..." She breathes as I glide my lips up, licking and sucking her skin.
"Yeah, baby?" I drawl as I twist her nipple in my thumb and finger, bruising her lips again.
"Fuck me." She growls. Her hungry eyes meet mine and theyβre filled with lust. My wolf does a spin and my chest vibrates as the demand.
I drop her and spin her around, pressing my large body against her tiny, delicate form from behind. I run my hands all over her, thread my fingers into her hair and yank it back. My other hand travels up between her breasts to her long throat and I gently wrap my fingers around it.
With my lips teasing her ear, I growl, "You want me to fuck you?"
"Yes." She lets out a shaky breath as her arousal surrounds us. She looks at me with desire. Fuck, this girl is so goddamn hot.
My hand travels down into her leggings from behind and finds her soaking, wet pussy. My fingers slide up and down her slit, I find her entrance and squeeze a finger into her tight pussy.
My lips play with the soft skin of her cheek. "I'm going to fuck you hard and dirty."
Her head tilts back and her scent seems to triple as my fingers hold her throat.
"Yes. Please." She whines as her legs start to quake and her climax crests.
I rub her pussy faster and she throws her head back even farther. "Fuck, yes!" Her juices coat my finger as her orgasm explodes. Her climax is hard, loud and hot as fuck. I need her now.
"I'm going to make you scream. Get those pants off now." I growl, darkly.
I let her go and she tears off her leggings. In a split second, I slam her hands on the wall and pull her ass out, putting her dripping wet pussy on full display. I rip the button on my jeans open and shove them down with my boxers.
I grab her mouth and my dick and shove it in with full force. She screams into my palm and her pussy tightens so much I almost come on the first stroke.
I grab her ass cheek, push it up and thrust into her without mercy. Slamming her into the wall.
My growls are possessive like I'm claiming her right there. She's mine and in this moment, I'm showing her I fucking mean it.
"Fuck, Sarah. Come for me." I grab her throat and pull her back as I torture her pussy with my fingers.
"Jayson, yes!... fuck me!..." She screams.
I bear down on her ass. My thrusts getting deeper and my hips slamming into her ass hard. My mind is drowning in the explosion of pleasure I get with each stroke into her amazing pussy.
I feel her pussy clamp and I rub her pussy even harder. "Come, Sarah. Give it to me baby." I grunt as my own climax teeters on the edge.
She throws her head back as her orgasm coats my balls in sweet come. The heat and tightness of her pussy is too much. My balls pull up and my own release fires out.
I lift her leg, spreading her wide and fucking pound her out. My body shakes and my knees weaken. My muscles tighten. "Fuck, Sarah. Fuck, yes!" I growl as I fill her pussy with my hot come.
She's whining and breathing heavy as I slow down and drop her leg down. I kiss her back as I run my hands up the front of her body squeezing her tits and pulling her back into me.
I move to her throat and up to her jaw, turning her face to meet mine and crushing her lips with a deep kiss.
Reluctantly, I pull out, still kissing her soft full lips. I could kiss these lips forever.
I caress every inch of her body, committing it to memory. I want to know every pore of this woman's skin.
I let her breathe and stare into her dreamy blue eyes. "I'm so in awe of you.β I whisper, rubbing my fingers on her cheek. "I don't want to go a day without touching you."
She smiles. "I don't want to go a day without feeling your body on mine."
My satisfied eyes get lost in hers. "I think I'm falling for you, Sarah."
"I think I'm falling for you, too."
I kiss her again as I feel my heart swell. My wolf purrs at the thought that this woman is with us. This woman is part of us.
My wolf stirs, perks up and thinks one wordβ¦
Mine.

"So weβre really doing this." Luke says as he cracks a beer and stands in the common room of my pack house.
After taking Sarah home, I met with Alphas to get their honest input on this Dragon thing.
Leaning on the back of a couch, I rub my head. "We have no other choice."
Wren took a sip of her beer. "You could trust the Unit?"
"Wren, they've been on us for years. Putting pressure on our borders. If it wasn't for the paper we signed, they would have taken us over already. The council has it in for us. We're an afterthought. An inconvenience blocking their way to expand. No. I don't trust them. Not with this."
Luke sits on the couch beside me. βYeah, it doesnβt help that Blake is part of the council now. That guyβs a dick.β He pounds back a mouthful.
I shrug. βHeβs got money and new found celebrity with Anna killing torrent. The Blakeβs are all assholes. Thatβs why I want to do this on my own.β
Deacon leans on his knees. "Ok. So, what's the plan?"
"We start wolf training. Asap. Rogues don't fight solely in human form. The recruits need the shifter skills. We have 3 weeks at best to hone the skills." I glance at all the faces of my friends.
"We can do it." Kale nodded. "I've actually been preparing some really good training set ups. I'll have them on your desk first thing."
I offer a fist bump to Kale. "Thanks buddy." He returns it.
Cass sits back with a concerned look on his face. I know that look. "What?"
"I don't know. I don't like it. It's too organized. Who's the Alpha?" He asks as he leans on his thighs.
I never thought of that. Every pack has an Alpha. "That's a good question. Rogues never pack up. Someone has been organizing them."
"A Dragon." Wren spit out.
I nod. "A Dragon. The question is who."
Luke pulled out his phone. "I'll make some calls and see what I can find out. Red rock is a magnet for shifters with the worse reps. Someone has to have heard something. Besides, my dadβs been blowing up my phone for days to come home. Maybe I'll find something there."
"Ok. Get back to me. In the meantime, my pack house is your pack house." I offer.
Kale stood up. "I've got to get back to Georgia. I'll call you if anything comes up at the camp."
I give him a side clap. "Ok, bro. I'll see you in a week."
Luke scrubbed his head. "I got a head to. I should probably see what the old man wants. Not that I really care.β
I clap his back. "You need to start caring about your pack, man."
"Whatever." Luke shrugs. "I'll call you in the morning."
βOk, buddy. Thanks.β I clap his shoulder and he heads for the door.
Wren gets up and jogs to Kale. "Hey, drive me back?"
"Sure." Kale smiles and pulls out his keys.
"See ya, Jay." She waves.
I wave back. "Later."
I turn to Cass and Deacon. "What about you two?"
Deacon grin. "Love to, bud, but pack business never ends."
Cass gets up and walked over to me. "Yeah. I have a meeting in the morning. I get to spend an hour listening to my beta whine about how unfair his job is."
I raise my brow. "Fun."
"Loads." They both wave bye and shut the door behind them. I'm now alone with my thoughts. They immediately go to Sarah and what I told her in the barn.
I almost can't believe I admitted that what I feel for her is stronger than I thought. This pull we have, it feels almost cosmic. I'm not sure how to explain it. It's like we're both just fuses and someone else is lighting the match.
I may not know what this is, but I know I want to find out. I just hope we get that chance.
