Beautiful Creatures Series

Stanton had spent three long, happy days in bed with Aurora. His plan was starting to backfire on him. He could barely keep up with her. Every time she was close, he found himself lost to her desire. Stanton had just finished a workout in the sack when he pulled on some pants and headed for the kitchen. He grabbed a bottle of water from the fridge and drank it all in one shot. “Come on, Baby, let's go again. Aurora purred as she came up behind him, wrapping her arms around his waist and kissing his back.

“Hummingbird, I need a few minutes,” she groped him, and he jumped and backed away. “Seriously, Baby, I need food. If you want me to survive, another go around.”

Aurora laughed. “Am I too much for you, Big Daddy?” She teased.

He nodded. “Yeah, a little bit,” he said, drinking his water.

She reached for him again, but a knock at the door disturbed them. “Oh, thank God,” Stanton muttered. “Someone is here. Go get dressed,” he waited for her to gather some clothes and walk into the washroom to get dressed. Stanton put down his water and answered the door to find Gordon. “Hey?” He said, trying to catch his breath.

Gordon looked him over. “Did I can’t you at a bad time?”

“No, come in… please,” Stanton stepped aside to let Gordon in. “What brings you by.”

“Well, I heard you took some time off work. Thought I’d pop in and see if you wanted to get a drink with me and talk.”

Stanton rolled his eyes. “You been talking to Darrell?” He asked suspiciously.

Gordon gave him a funny look. “No, should I?”

Stanton shook his head. “No.”

“You look like you just ran a marathon.”

“Marathon, yeah, you could say that.”

“What’s going on?”

“Nothing,” Stanton lied.

Just then, Aurora came out of the bathroom dressed and presentable. “Hello, Gordon,” she said, coming over to the two men.

“Hello Aurora, you’re looking good,” suddenly, Gordon took a deep breath like he smelled something, and he stepped closer to Aurora, which made Stanton nervous. “You smell good too,” he muttered as he started to breathe a little harder like he was getting worked up. “You smell really good,” Aurora took a cautious step back. Stanton could see an intense arousal flash in Gordon’s eyes. Gordon’s hands came up like he wanted to touch her, and he got a crazed look in his eyes. “Oh, God,” he said, looking her over and moving closer, but she took a step back. “You are just…’ His hands were trembling like he was trying to resist the urge to grab her.

“Gordon, are you ok?” Stanton asked with concern.

“Yeah,” Gordon groaned, and then he backed away. “I have to leave. I have to leave right now,” he said, making a break for the door.

Once he was outside, Aurora looked at Stanton. “That was weird, right?”

“Yeah. Give me a minute,” Stanton went outside to find Gordon getting on his bike. “Gordon, what the hell was that?”

Gordon got back off the bike. “I’m sorry I can’t be around her,” he pointed at the house. “You have to keep her isolated.”

then Darrell changed. Torn clothes on the ground and two massive beasts were staring each other down. The tanned-coloured wolf Aurora believed was Darrell attacked the dark reddish-brown wolf she knew was Stanton. They scratched and bit at one another, rolling and flipping as they each struggled to put the other down. There were fur and fangs everywhere. While the two powerhouses fought over her, Lewis and Kenneth fixated on Aurora. Both were breathing hard as they began to circle. This was not going to end well. She
