My Secret, My Bully, My Mates. Series

I grab his shoulder and pull him down to me. With the latest growth spurt, I am back to being just taller than their elbows again. He looks at me a little surprised as I kiss him full on the lips in front of everyone. I guess I'm getting past being shy about public displays of affection. He stops what he's doing to wrap his arms around me and pick me up for better access. I laugh into his mouth. We keep it PG, but he kisses me several times before I pull away and ask if I can help him. He slides me down his body slowly.All content © N/.ôvel/Dr/ama.Org.

"I would never turn down the chance to spend some one on one time with you, Baby." We get to work, and our combined effort makes digging out the trench only take about twenty minutes. We had to make it deep enough that they couldn't jump out, and wide enough that they couldn't climb, we'll see how smart they are though. This was actually a task Lil, Jena and I had to figure out at training. It can be done, and without magic. But if these guys think anything like their Alpha, they don't think outside the box very well.

"Alright, you got your moment. I want my good job kiss." Dakota whips me around and the other two laugh while the rest of our warriors put silver collars or wrist cuffs on the captured warriors and toss them into the trench. Lil was more aggressive than necessary, but she seems to be enjoying herself so I let it be.

He walks us away from the crowd and basically devours my face. I have to press against his chest with a good amount of force to extract myself from him. "Dakota, slow down!"

"I can't help it. It is so hot watching you take charge and put all of these losers in their place. I really, really want to take you home right now, but I know we have work to do, so you are just going to have to give me enough to tide me over." I laugh and kiss him again, which he takes full advantage of, then hands me over to Cam, I never hit the ground.

"You really are impressive, Love. We're never going to stop saying it." His kiss is just as hot but not as demanding as Dakota's. "We need to go check on the Northern border and Wyatt and Nathaniel."

"Someone should..."

"Don't even finish that sentence. We already told you we are not splitting up." Oliver puts his hand up to stop me as Cam's fingers tighten on my thighs. "In any other normal situation, you are right, we should split up so someone can meet Osiston when he comes for Brecc and Charlene and check the two other locations. It would also help to keep an Alpha aura on them, but this is not normal and you are not going to be out of our sight of any of us outside of the packhouse. Next topic."

"Well, that was final...and spoken like a true Alpha." I wink at him as I jump down from Cam's arms. "I guess you all are going to have to keep up." I take off, shifting mid run. I really want to know how fast we are, my wolves, their wolves. I can hear all the commotion in my head, but I can also turn the sound down, it's interesting. The fight is still going on on the Northern border, but it's not dire. It doesn't sound like they are actually trying to fight us, but if the point was to distract us for Alpha Brecc and Charlene, then they should be done now. The fight is still going on though, that doesn't make any sense.

***"Nathaniel. ANything at the main entrance?"***

***"Yes and No, Boss."***

***"You are going to have to elaborate on that, Nathaniel. Not all of us are super geniuses that can read your mind."*** Cam chimes in.

***"There are no wolves or any

people here, but there has definitely been movement. Patterns show that someone or something has been moving in and out using the same path for a while now. I can't tell from the drones if it is surveillance or if they have been bringing things in or taking things out. I really need to get close and get a first hand look."***

***"Absolutely not! We are not risking you for surveillance with flimsy information like that."*** I can't even imagine risking Nathaniel's life for something so stupid. He's become another brother to me. He doesn't need protection, something many of the Elite Warriors thought, since he is more quiet than any of them and really good with computers so he tends to be overwatch in a tent or vehicle playing home base. He is an amazing fighter and became our secret weapon on missions. We would use the stereotype to our advantage.

***"Your Alpha has spoken." Dakota laughs. "I love how protective you are, Smalls."***

I just giggle. I have always been protective. That's probably one of the first things I recognized about myself. That is one thing I can thank Kaley and her dad, and if I am being honest, my own dad, for during my youth and teen years.

We continue to run. My wolf is making comments about how we move, but I'm not really listening, I am just feeling. Feeling the breeze in our fur, feeling the dirt under our paws. I don't even have to think, our body just moves through the trees, we hit nothing and don't have to make decisions on which way to move to dodge or jump obstacles. We can just feel the forest, it's almost like it is talking to us through our connection to the ground and it feels wonderful. Warm and comforting, like a hug from Sierra when we first met. SHe didn't know me, but pulled me into her sphere of brightness and I couldn't pull away, didn't want to pull away.

We reach the Northern border in less than fifteen minutes. It would have been a forty five minute drive in the truck. That has to be a record. But, what I see when we get there is mayhem.
