From between the trees Finlay came walking. My heart stopped as I took in the moment. I drew in my mate’s scent again
and relief washed over me as I recognised it. It was Finlay’s scent. Finlay was my second chance mate? He didn’t stop as
he reached me, he stepped into my space, took a grip on my neck and kissed me as if his life depended on it. I wrapped
my arms around his neck and responded to the kiss. Sparks danced where our skin touched. These sparks were miles
from the ones I had felt with James. I welcomed the tingling sensation. Finlay kept moving forward, making me back up
into the trees and bushes. I didn’t care. The only important thing was our kiss and the sparks. When my back hit a tree
trunk, we stopped moving and Finlay pressed his body against mine. He ended the kiss and looked into my eyes. I could
see how close to the surface his wolf was, mine was as well. She felt her mate, her real mate, the one she had been
accepting all along.
“You are mine,” Finlay told me. The presence of his wolf made his voice dark and growling.
“You’re my mate,” I told him. He smirked.
“I am.” Then he kissed me again. I desperately wanted to feel more of the sparks. The kiss and my hands on his neck weren’t enough. I tugged on his tie until I got it off him. I threw it into the bushes. Finlay took a handful of my hair and
tilted my head to the right, exposing my neck to him. He kissed his way down it, and I shivered as my fingers did their
best to unbutton his shirt. He growled in approval as the last buttons were undone and I placed my hands flat against his
six pack. He licked his way up to my ear and I let out a needy sound. “Do you feel the sparks, Red?” I hummed and let my
hands travel up over his naked skin. Enjoying the sparks and exploring each valley and rise of his muscles. I watched my
hands travel over his chest as he kissed my neck, his hand still tangled in my hair. My eyes found the tattoo he had on his
chest. Sam, Martin and Finlay had gone on a boys trip a couple of years back and they had all come back with tattoos. Martin had blue mountains with a howling wolf in front of them tattooed on his upper arm. He had been proud of it and
showed me the moment they got back. Medow had told me Sam had tattooed her name on his ribs. I had asked Finlay
what he had tattooed, but all I had got was that it was personal. I had been tempted to sneak a peak when we shifted,
but it went against all social norms, so I had refrained. Now he was all mine to look at. I found it and took it in. It was the
size of a baseball and had a rounded shape. In the background, there were mountains. The same mountains which
surrounded the pack land. As the centre of the tattoo, there was a flower. I recognised it, it was an armeria flower. It took
my breath away all over again and I placed my hand over it. Finlay stopped kissing my neck and looked down at it and
my hand.
“Do you like it?” he asked.
“I love it, but you had it done years ago,” I said. He smiled at me.
“I have known for a long time who owns my heart,” he told me. With my free hand I pulled him to me and kissed him.
Finlay didn’t hesitate. He responded to my feverish kiss with just as much passion and need. His free hand caressed my
skirt clad leg. He pulled it up to wrap it around him, but he needed to free it from the dress first.
“To many fucking layers,” he whispered against my lips. I smiled. He managed to untangle my leg and I felt his hand
travel up and down it as I wrapped it around his hip. Finlay rolled his hips against me and I whined out my need. “Red, we
need to stop this before we get out of control. I will take you back to the cabin, it should be empty now,” Finlay told me.
“No. It’s too far. We can just stay right here,” I objected.
“Your first time shouldn’t be against a tree in the woods,” he objected.
“I don’t fucking care. My first time will be with you. That is all that matters,” I told him. He used his hold of my hair to pull me to him. He kissed me with a devouring need. I let my hands run over Finlay’s skin under his shirt. He let go of my leg,
but I kept it wrapped around him, anchoring us together. Finlay took a grip on the front of my dress and pulled it down,
exposing my naked breasts to the warm summer air. He broke the kiss and covered one of my nipples with his mouth,
letting his tongue play with it. “Fuck!” I exclaimed, tilting my head back against the tree. My fingers curled and I dragged
my nails over Finlay’s skin to try and pull him closer to me. A low rumble came from Finlay, sounding approving. His hand
was back on my leg, going up under the skirt. He took a firm grip on my ass and pressed me against him. I was working
on pure instinct when I did my best to move against him. The bulk of my skirt hindered me and made me frustrated.
Finlay switched his attention to my other breast and a new wave of sparks danced over my skin. “Finn!” I moaned.
‘Keep it up, Red. I love the sound you’re making,’ he linked me. I wanted more, more of him and the way he set my body
on fire. I tried to get his belt open, I was distracted by his skilful mouth and his hand which caressed my ass, moving me
against him. After struggling with the thing for far too long, I lost my patience and used a claw to slice through the
leather. Finlay chuckled and let go of my nipple. He kissed his way up my chest and neck. “Getting needy?” he whispered
in my ear. It was a stupid question and instead of answering it, I gripped his hair and pulled him into a kiss. He used the
grip he still had on my hair to secure me to him. With the belt out of the way, I made quick work of unzipping his pants
and put my hand inside. I could feel his cock, still separated from my hand by his boxers. This was so far out of my
comfort zone, I had no idea what I was doing and was relying heavily on what I had read in romance books. Finlay moved
against my hand. I took it as I was doing the right thing and firmed my grip. His hold on my ass shifted and his hand moved over my leg to my front. One moment I was wearing panties, the next, they had been ripped from my body and
stuffed into Finlay’s pocket. We ended the kiss and looked at each other.
“Don’t stop,” I told him. He kissed me softly.
“I will never stop. You are mine now, Armeria. We never need to stop,” he said. As he locked eyes with me, he slid a finger
into me. His thumb found my clit and he moved his hand in the same pace I moved mine. The pleasure was building
inside me at a rapid rate.
“Finn,” I panted. All his focus was on me. The fire in his eyes was scolding hot.
“Just stay with me, Red. I’m right here. Trust in me and let go, I will catch you,” he told me. I trusted him and I let my
body lead me. I climaxed hard and I heard Finlay growl in approval. It sent me off into a smaller climax. He kissed me and
I wrapped my arm around his neck. “That was just the test drive, sweetheart. Are you ready for the real thing?” he asked. I
giggled and kissed his neck.
“You are lucky I had a big dinner, I have a lot of energy to burn,” I told him. He licked my neck.
“Lucky indeed,” he agreed. We kissed and I did my best to pull his pants and underwear down. He was doing his best to
find his way through my skirt.
“Finn,” I whined.

“One moment. This thing is growing as we speak, why do you need all these layers?” he asked, I could hear the
frustration. It would have been funny if I wasn’t just as frustrated. I heard something rip, but I didn’t care as it seemed to
solve our issue. Finlay was again kissing me. “Tell me if you want me to stop. Any time, just tell me,” he told me as we
drew apart. I smiled and took a moment to take the sight of him in.
“I’m not afraid of you, Finn. I want you to mark me, we have waited long enough,” I told him.
“Your will is my command,” he told me. His one hand took a hold of my jaw, making sure I kept looking at him. With his
other hand he aligned his cock with my pussy and slowly entered me. I drew in a breath as the feeling of him filling me
was unlike anything I had experienced. “Mine,” he told me.
“Mine,” I told him right back. He pulled back and thrusted forward. The pleasure inside me made me whimper.
“I love you,” Finlay growled as he picked up speed.
“I love you too,” I told him and found myself moving against him. Finding our rhythm together, we kissed and then we
broke apart to kiss down each other’s necks. I felt his sharp teeth scrape against my skin and my own wolf’s teeth grew. My wolf knew what needed to be done and she pushed me hard. I felt Finlay’s teeth sink into my neck and it was the most blissful thing I had ever felt. I let my teeth sink into his marking spot and we both reached our peak at the same
time. I felt the bond snap in place. It was strong and stable.

202My world settled again. Everything had shifted slightly. Amie, my mate, was now the centre of everything. As she should
be. I felt the bond between us, I couldn’t describe the feeling. I had followed her earlier when she went to meet James. I
stayed far enough away not to intrude, but close enough to get to her quickly if needed. When the scent of my mate had
come to me, I had known it could only be her. It was the only thing which made sense to both me and my wolf. I took in
her scent now and smiled as a hint of my own scent was mixed in with hers. From now on, we would always carry each
other’s scents. I kissed my mark on her neck, it had almost healed and formed the permanent mark that would show
everyone she was mine. Amie’s fingers were raking through my hair and I just wanted the moment to last forever. But we were out in the open, or at least out in the woods.
“Red, I think it’s time for us to head for the cabin. We should have it to ourselves for a couple of hours,” I told her. She
hummed and I could hear the satisfaction in the sound. Pride bloomed in my chest.
“How bad is the state of my dress?” she asked.
“I think I ripped it at one point. I’m sorry. I’ll buy you a new one,” I promised. She giggled.
“I don’t care about the dress. I liked it, but I think it has done its job. I just don’t know if it covers enough of me to walk
home in,” she explained. I smiled and kissed her.
“How about we shift and run to the cabin?” I suggested.
“And what about our clothes?”
“Someone will find them, I guess.”
“So we just leave them here? Smelling of sex?” she asked.
“Love, light of my life, I think everyone will figure out we have had sex when we show up with mate marks,” I told her. She
giggled.
“Yeah, that is a dead giveaway,” she admitted. I made sure she had both her feet on the ground and was stable before I
stepped away from her. I missed her in my arms the moment I let her go. I helped her take off her dress and stripped off
my clothes. Before I knew it, Amie’s red wolf stood beside me. My wolf wanted to be let out. He wanted time with his mate. In his mind I had wasted enough time. He felt I should have marked and mated her as soon as we met, like he had
told me. I shifted and our wolves spent some time rubbing up against each other. We set off and my wolf and I kept close
to Amie and her wolf. We made sure we took the shortest and safest way to the cabin, avoiding everyone else. When we
reached the cabin, we shifted back and I pulled a giggling Amie inside. She was a vision as she ran into the cabin naked
with her hair falling down over her shoulders, hiding those amazing breasts of hers. I hadn’t let go of her hand, so I
tugged on it, sending her straight into my arms. She wrapped her arms around my neck and as our bodies came
together, I could feel the sparks. It was like stepping into a tub of carbonated water. We kissed, not a desperate kiss like in
the woods, but a warm kiss.
“Aren’t you going to tell me I was right?” she asked me, still smiling.
“You usually are, it’s quite annoying. What were you right about this time?” I asked. She giggled and I loved the sound,
she sounded happy.
“I told you that you would meet your mate at the Game, didn’t I?” she said and tilted her head. I looked at her for a
second and then I started to laugh.
“You did,” I admitted.
“And, you didn’t reject her.” I pulled her even closer to me.
“I would never,” I told her. She gave me a brilliant smile.
“I know.” We kissed, and the passion between us flared up again. I was about to drag her away to the couch, thinking
that taking her against the wall would be unimaginative after our adventure in the forest. She ended our kiss and looked
around.
“What if someone finds us?” she asked. I chuckled.
“You were fine with us having sex in the woods where anyone could walk up on us, but I get you back to the cabin and
you start to worry about people walking in on us?” I asked her. Sometimes I had no clue how her brain worked.
“I figured it was a slim chance of someone finding us in the woods. There is a lot of wood and we used a tiny part of it. Here, on the other hand, if one of our pack members comes home, they need to walk past us to get basically anywhere in
the cabin,” she explained. Her mind was a wonderful thing.
“Hold on tight, sweetheart,” I told her and lifted her by her ass. She squealed a little, but wrapped both legs and arms
around me. I headed upstairs, my patience was wearing thin. I kissed my mark on her neck as I opened my bedroom door
and kicked it shut behind us. Amie seemed just as needy as I felt and I knew we were in for a long night.
***
I was slowly drifting awake. I was at the point where my mind was becoming conscious, but my body and wolf were still
asleep. I was feeling amazing, relaxed and satisfied. Memories of the night before flashed through my mind as I
registered Amie’s naked body next to mine. I opened my eyes and smiled. She was lying on her stomach and I had
draped an arm and a leg over her. The morning sun shone in from the window and caressed her naked body and set her
hair on fire. I just stayed like I was, admiring my sleeping mate, resisting the urge to wake her up with a kiss.
‘Are you just going to stare at me?’ she asked in a mindlink.
‘Yes,’ I admitted and felt it was okay to kiss her as she was awake.
‘It’s a little creepy, you know,’ she told me when we ended the kiss.
‘I don’t care, it’s my new favourite hobby.’ I kissed her shoulder and pulled her closer, securing her to me.
‘I can live with it.’ She placed a kiss on my chest.
‘I think we should talk about some practical things,’ I said. I had been thinking while watching her sleep.
‘Sure. About what?’ she asked. I traced the pink scars on her shoulder.
‘First off, we need to build an extension on our house.’
‘Our house?’ she asked.
‘You don’t expect me to move into your little apartment, do you?’ she smiled and shook her head, making her hair even messier than it had started.
‘No. So why do we need to change our house? I like it as it is.’
‘You will need an office to work from.’
‘I see two issues with your thinking,’ she told me.
‘Only two?’
‘Yes. One. My office in the pack house is quite enough. It’s ten steps between our house and the pack house. Two. Even if
I needed an office in our house, there are two spare bedrooms. They may be upstairs, but I won’t mind,’ she told me. I
hummed.
‘You are wrong, my love. One. You will need to move out of that office and from now on we need to share an office in the
pack house. Two. Those rooms are for our pups, I can’t let you use them as an office,’ I corrected her and kissed her on
the nose.
‘Pups?’ she asked.
‘You don’t want pups?’ I knew I wanted pups with her. I had always fantasised about having a house filled with a family. When I built the house, the face of my mate and our pups had been blurry, but after meeting Amie it was always her I
saw sitting at the kitchen table having dinner with, watching our pups play in the garden and just coming home to her. I
also knew if she didn’t want pups, I could give up on that dream. I would do anything to make her happy. I could find an
heir another way.
‘Of course I do. At least two, maybe three,’ she told me. I smiled and kissed her.
‘There you go,’ I told her. ‘We need the rooms we have.’ She smiled and shook her head.
‘You are so sweet,’ she told me and let her fingertips move across my face. ‘Wait! Why do I have to give up my office in
the pack house?’ she asked.
‘I think that is pretty obvious,’ I said and looked at her. She looked back at me and for a long while, we just looked at
each other. ‘For a brilliant woman, you can be surprisingly slow,’ I told her.
‘Hey!’
‘‘The reason you have to give up the Beta office is because you aren’t my Beta any longer. You are my Luna. Which nicely
brings me to the second topic we need to discuss. Who will be our new Beta?’ I asked. Her eyes grew bigger.
‘Fuck. I’m the Luna,’ she told me.
‘You are. Are you freaking out?’
‘No. Maybe. Just a little bit.’
‘Don’t. You were born to be a Luna. You have practically been my Luna since you joined the pack. You are a natural. Let me take away any doubts,’ I said to calm her down and kissed her.

‘Almost gone,’ she said as we drew apart and kissed me. ‘All gone. I think I can do this.’
‘You can. So who will replace you?’ I had an idea, it was a little untraditional, but that had worked well for our pack in the
past.
‘I have a suggestion, but I don’t know if you will think I’m crazy for suggesting him,’ she told me.
‘I already know that you are a little crazy, Red.’
‘I was thinking, Jake. He’s not the typical top tier, but he is smart, practical, mostly level headed and he has improved his
physical capabilities,’ she said. I chuckled.
‘I was thinking the same. I like him. He really impressed me with how he protected both you and Ramses in the hide and
seek game. I think he will be a perfect addition to our group. Shelly and Medow had done an amazing job keeping the
pack together while we have been away. She will also be a good addition.” Amie was smiling at me.
‘I love how willing you are to think outside the box for the best of the pack, honey,’ she told me. ‘We will have a full table
for the first time.’ Her comment made my mood shift slightly.
‘We have to do something about that,’ I told her.
‘About us being a full table? I don’t see why, it’s a good thing.’
‘It’s not fair that the Beta and Gamma couples get to sit next to each other and I have to look at you from all the way
across the table,’ I pointed out to her. She shook her head as if in disappointment, but I could see her smile.
‘It’s not like it’s a huge table.’
‘Doesn’t matter, we will have to get a new one.’
‘A new table would still have the same issue.’
‘Not if we get a round one. Then everyone gets to sit next to their mate, there would be no head of the table,’ I told her. I
felt kind of smart for thinking of it.
‘I like that idea. It’s genius,’ she said. ‘Was that all the things you needed to talk about?’ she asked.
‘No, one more,’ I told her and I turned serious. She felt it and propped herself up on her elb
