Alphas Possession

Read Alphas Possession by Jessica Hall Chapter 90

– Harlow hung up the moment she heard Rhen’s voice as he opened my door when they located me where I was still parked on the side of the road. Rhen said nothing as he peered down at me and I rested my head back on the headrest. “You got her to ring me.” I breathe and I close my eyes.

“No, but she was on the phone with Leon when we felt you freak out,” So she rang on her own accord not because she was asked to? I swallowed and nodded my head.

“You’re not driving like that, climb over to the passenger seat,” Rhen said pushing on my arm to move. Sighing, I relent and do as he tells me, quickly moving to the other seat as he climbs into the car.

“Are we going home?” I ask him.

“Is that where you want me to drop you?” he asks and I turn my head to look at him.

“Are you all coming home?” I ask him and he purses his lips but says nothing.

“I want to go wherever you are all going,” I tell him. He nods once and we follow Raidon back to his parent’s new place.

The Hamptons looking home was vast, and everything Elaine had always wanted, it was also out of the city and surrounded by forest. Rhen pulls into the garage and shuts the car off before climbing out. Elaine stood by the door staring at the cars as she worried her lip between her teeth. Even here! found no comfort, even surrounded by my mates. When I don’t climb out of the car, Raidon opens my door looking at me expectantly,

“Come on, Mum made lunch,” he tells me. And I nod once before he steps aside. I followed him through the house with neutral tones and high ceilings, it resembled a show home and I knew Elaine was very house proud, as she always had been.

“Are you staying the night dear?” she asked me as I stepped into the huge gallery-style kitchen that overlooked the living room with its open rooms and sweeping polished floors.

I looked at Raidon, it was his mother’s house, not mine and I wasn’t sure I was welcome despite her asking as I took a seat on the couch. Leon comes in moments later and watches me closely as he moves toward the living area. I wanted to feel anger at him for draining me, for knocking me out yet! felt nothing but numb, desensitized to the anger I felt before.

He stops in front of me as if asking the question of my forgiveness. Yet it was me who should be asking for theirs. When he doesn’t move to sit, I reach for him, gripping his wrist and tugging him to sit. He sighs leaning against me, yet I could feel his burning hunger, the need to feed from his Alpha. So strong as it was Harlow.

“Yes, ma he is staying the night,” Raidon answers and I didn’t realize how much I was hoping he would say yes until the words spilled from his lips. Elaine smiles fondly at her son, we were always close, and after a while I found myself relaxing in her new home.

The night was long as my mates settled into the routine they had for the past few days here. Raidon s father went to bed early having rounds at the local hospital that was understaffed right now, and he was called in for the early hour’s shift.

Elaine sat on the armchair across from us going through boxes of paperwork she needed to sort out. Rhen going over her finances from his laptop beside her, she hands him a folder and he accepts it, flicking through the pages for something he needed for her taxes.

Turning my attention back to the TV, I leave them be, before Rhen packs up his laptop, having finished doing whatever it was she asked of him. I watch as he stretches and yawns.

“It’s finished, I just need to send it in tomorrow,” he tells her before rising to his feet. He leans down pecking her cheek.

“I’m going to head to bed,” he tells her and she nods, going back to her task at hand of sorting through the office paperwork she had. Leon and Raidon are quick to follow after him and Leon stops behind Elaine looking at me expectantly I sigh. I was much too wired for sleep yet the way he watched me I knew he was asking for me to follow.

“I think I will do the same,” I tell Elaine, getting to my feet as she pulls out some journal; looking it over with a confused expression. I lean down pecking her cheek and as she opens it.

“Night son,” she tells me, picking up whatever fell from between its pages and landed on the floor by her feet.

I followed Raidon and the others to a room upstairs where they had pushed two queen beds together. It felt awkward almost as if waiting for permission to rest with them.

Yet as they climbed into bed I found myself following and within moments of my head hitting the pillow my eyes closed as their familiar scents surrounded me. Feeling the bed dip I went to roll when I felt the sharp pierce of Leon’s fangs as they sunk deep into my neck.

Turning my head so he had better access, my fingers found their way into his hair as I caressed his scalp, his tongue lapping hungrily at me, enticing a moan from my lips as I pulled him on top of me, His hard c***k dug into my stomach as he moved against me before pulling his fangs from my neck.
