“What are you up to?” Sallack asks, looking at us all in turn.

             
“Believe it or not, but we are getting ourselves out of trouble,” Dallah tells him in a serious tone.

             
“Yeah, better be,” Sallack tells us with authority.

             
“You got it Alpha,” I tell him, winking as I walk out of the circle of big bad wolves and straight to the table for a much needed drink.

Filling my glass up with champagne, I knock the lot back, finishing with a little shudder from its strength.

              “You ok?” I ask Dallah when she appears at my side.

             
“Yeah I’m fine, but I want you to do something for me?”

             
“Go on?” I ask.

             
“Speak with Den; I think he needs you sweetie?” She tells me sadly.

             
“Really, he needs me? So what about when I needed him not turn his back on me?” I ask her annoyed that she would ask this of me.

             
“I know he was out of line, but I’m worried for him,”

             
“Damn it Dallah! Don’t you get it, he doesn’t need me anymore, he has made that crystal clear. I won’t stand and listen to the spiteful things he has to say, my heart can’t take it, the look of hatred in his eyes.” I tell her knocking back another glass of champagne to calm my nerves, as we were so close to being caught with that bloody book.

             
“I will ask nothing else from you,” She asks in a plea.

Signing loudly, I turn to find Den, and there he is standing with Richard, laughing with him.

Giving Dallah one more sigh, I turn back to the direction of Den and walk up to him slowly.

              “How are you Den?” I ask him, while trying not to look at Richard whose eyes I can feel boring into me.

             
“Good, you?” He asks with a small frown.

             
“Yeah great,” I tell him, and with that, he turns away from me so that I am facing his back. What a bastard! My hands itch, as I fight the need to slap him upside the head for being such a dick!

Walking away from them as if I have not a care in the world, but inside I am fuming as I return to Dallah.

              “No more favours! Ever!” I tell her a little annoyed that she asked me to do that, knowing that Den clearly doesn’t want me around him.

             
“I thought...” She finishes with a sigh, not needing to say anymore from seeing the anger boiling within me.

Julian comes up behind her and laces his muscular arms over her shoulders as he kisses her cheek and whispers into her ear making her smile.

              “Zara?” Den speaks sweetly as he comes to my side.

             
“Yeah,” I say in a sigh, as I look into his brilliant green eyes now full of regret.

             
“I didn’t mean to upset you, it’s just that...”

             
“Its fine Den,” I nod my head to him while begging the tears in my eyes not to release.

             
“Ok, well I just wanted you to know that babe,” He tells me sweetly.

Again, I nod my head to him and bite my lip to stop it from shaking. As much as want to hate him for the way he gave up on me, I just can’t, I do love him and I always will, no matter what, but I won’t tell him, I don’t want to look weak.

              “I’m going back over there,” He nods his head in Richards direction, “I...oh it doesn’t matter.” He sighs and walks away.

             
“What Den?” I ask him gently, needing to hear what he was going to say, I stop him by the arm.

             
“Its ok babe,” He tells me with clouded eyes.

Watching him leave, wondering what he wanted to say but didn’t. He stops to look over his shoulder, he gives me a breathtaking smile, I want to smile back at him, I do not want to hurt his feelings, but I cannot do it. I just watch him turn and walk away from me, something I have come accustomed to since being here.

Looking back to Dallah and Julian, they smile at me sorrowfully, before I turn on my heal, and leave them to head over to the Brothers’.

             
“Is he alright?” Ruk asks me almost jealously.

             
“I don’t know,” I shrug my shoulders.

             
“Ok,” He says looking distressed.

             
“Hey, what’s got in to you?”

             
“Nothing beautiful,” He tells me, then looks at Den across the room.

I can see the stress in his handsome face, so I move closely to him, pressing my body against his.

              “Can I have a word outside?” I ask him with a smile.

             
“Yeah, come on,” He takes my hand and leads me outside, whilst people move out of his way, making room for him to walk by.

When we reach a secluded spot, I pull on his hand to stop him from walking and step up to him, putting my arms around his neck and pulling him down to take his lips with mine. He picks me up and holds my butt, while walking to our right as he pushes me up against the wall. Deepening the kiss, I can taste the beer he just drank, and feel his muscles flex against me. Peppering small kisses down his neck, I nip and suck against his smooth skin, making him moan in pleasure,

              “I want you Ruk,” I tell him against his neck, as his breaths become heavy.

             
“I saw the look...you...gave...Den.” He says in a hurt tone, while drawing in deep breaths as my hand rubs against his hardness.

             
“No you didn’t, I only look at you Ruk, I only fantasise about you, and what I want you to do to me,”

             
“Zara someone...will...see...us,”

             
“Yeah, they might,” I tell him as I take his lips.

Pulling
back, he searches my eyes before they glow brightly back at me, he spins me around and places my hands on the wall, while his knee separates my legs.

His big soft hands run up my thighs and lifting my dress up, and in doing so, my body tingles with excitement.

              “No panties?” He asks in a rough tone.

             
“I was hoping to surprise you,” I tell him, while I feel moisture pool between my legs in anticipation.

Hearing the button on his trousers pop open causes my heart to skip a beat
, knowing that I’m soon going to be in ecstasy.

When he pushes himself slowly into me, he groans against my neck, and I moan as my eyes roll back in my head.

As he moves against me, the world seems to disappear from around me as I’m sucked into a different place, all my worries and fears forgotten as passion takes us. As he grabs my hips to thrust harder into me, I bite my lip to suppress a scream. Bringing his hand forward to stroke my nub, I fall apart losing all control. A single groan from him sends my body into spasms and we explode together as one.

My legs still shaking and hardly able to hold my weight and just about to buckle under me, as he takes me in his arms and holds me in a tight embrace, crushing me to him for dear life.

             
“Stay with me tonight?” He asks out of breath.

             
“If there’s more of that,” I tell him with a seductive smile.

             
“You have no idea what I’m going to do to you,” He tells me with a wicked grin, and the excitement builds in me again as the hairs on my arms and back of my neck stand on end.

I
do not say one more word as I transport us to his room, and push him into the chair by his bed.

We spend the night experiencing only what I could have dreamed of, as we mould our body as one, and lose ourselves in a raw passion. Finally giving into sleep in the early hours.

Chapter Fifteen

The next morning sitting with Dallah in the kitchen, she listens intensely while I tell her of the night that Ruk and I shared t
ogether; while we wait for the Brothers’ to come down to meet us.

             
“Wow, he sounds like a dream,” She tells me with a smirk.

             
“One way of putting it, I was thinking more of a god!”

             
“Do you think the Brothers’ will detect what’s going on with you two; Julian has already figured it out.”

             
“No, we decided that when we get home, we will stop messing around. It’s a fling while we are here, like a holiday romance, unfortunately.” I tell her with a sigh.

             
“I think he is right Zara, you will come across the ones meant for you sooner or later,” She tells me gently.

             
“I know, it’s just I can’t imagine finding anyone like a Ruk, he really is perfection,” I tell her with a sigh.

             
“Have you fallen for him sweetie?” She asks me gently.

             
“My heart wants to, but I can’t, I know that it would end badly.”

             
“What will end badly?” Mickey asks strolling in and plonking himself in the between us.

             
“Nothing, just girl talk. You look good today Mickey” Dallah tells him playfully.

             
“You know that,” He winks at her.

The rest of the
Brothers’ and Theo walk in a take their seats at the table, as the kitchen staff fills the table with mountains of food, as they now know how big a werewolves appetite is.

Across from me is Ruk, and to his sides are Dom and Den, Theo sits next to Den, while Sallack sits on my right and Mickey on my left, and Julian lifts Dallah so that she
sits on his lap.

While everyone tucks into their breakfast, I
cannot help but keep returning my gaze to Ruk.

             
“We need to stay together today, everyone,” Sallack says looking to Dallah and me with a raised brow.

             
“Um hum,” Dallah and I both mumble to him.

Taking a plum from the platter of fruit, I bit
e into it, and the juice dribbles down my chin; I mop it up with my finger before placing it in my mouth to suck it clean. Ruk watches me intensely with hunger in his eyes as he fidgets in his seat making me smile.

Hearing Dallah cough/laugh, I look away from him and notice I have every pair of eyes in me.

              “Juicy little things,” I say with a smirk.

             
“Zara stop it!”
Ruk scolds me telepathically.

             
“
I can’t help it, did it get you hot?”
I ask him seductively.

             
“Zara, not here, don’t do this to me here,”
He
pleads while shuffling in his seat.

             
“Do what?”
I tease
.

             
“Look at me like you want me on right here on the table.

             
“What a brilliant idea, tell everyone to leave.”
I tell him truthfully, because I could not think of anything better.

             
“Zara!”
He
growls
.

             
“What do you want to do today then?” Mickey asks everyone.

             
“Fuck Ruk!”
I
tell him with a wicked grin.

Followed by Dallah and Ruk both choking, and with that, many raised eyebrows in their directions.
Realizing Dallah can hear our conversation I laugh aloud, and get funny looks from the Brothers’ in doing so.

             
“Dallah can you hear me?”

             
“Yes!”
She screams a laugh.

             
“Stop it, everyone’s looking at us,”
Ruk tells us trying to sound angry, but I can hear the laughter in his voice
.

             
“Ok, ok, but you do look so hot, and I do want to fuck you,”

Dallah laughs so hard that everybody
cannot help but laugh along with her as she has the most infectious laugh.

             
“Share the joke, then you two?” Mickey asks, looking between Dallah and me with a grin.

             
“Uh another time, I don’t think its table talk,” She tells him, then realizes what she said and laughter takes her again.

Looking over to Ruk, I give him a mischievous wink, which he
cannot help but give me a stunning smile in return.

I am
only playing with him, as I know he likes the attention. He has always made me blush with his seductive looks and with the little things he says, now I am getting my own back on him, big time.

             
“Right, so we are going to spend the day as a family again, it’s been a long time. Theo you can come if you want,” Sallack tells him reluctantly.

It’s amazing the way the
Brothers’ have taken to Theo so well, when they have had a feud going since Theo’s father and uncle killed Sallack’s parents, and Sallack and the brother’s in revenge, hunted and killed Theo’s father and uncle, but here we sit, all together. Since finding out that Theo brought himself here to watch over me, Sallack has put the feud between them aside. They know that it would kill me to see any of the Brothers’ hurt. Therefore, for now, they are putting their differences aside and coming together, so that we can get our asses out of here, with Dallah safely at our sides.

             
“Yeah, ok, if that’s alright with everyone,” Theo says to us.

             
“Wouldn’t have it any other way,” I tell him with a smile, “So what were you thinking,” I ask Sallack.

             
“Well Dallah said that there is a secluded beach a few miles out, and as the weather is so nice, I thought that would be a good idea. We need to take a break from following Richard around trying to find out what’s going on.” Sallack tells us.

Dallah has told them that he has only bought them here to stir things up, which Sallack doesn’t believe, but just Like Dallah I think the same.

              “Oh brilliant, I haven’t sunbathed in ages.”

Everyone looks at Ruk and Den when they sign loudly. I know why Ruk is signing, because he is going to have to watch me flirt with him, while in a bikini, but Den, I have no idea what his sigh was for.

              “April, we are going to the beach, will you make a picnic please?” Dallah asks the woman who is in charge of the kitchen.

             
“Yes Princess,” She replies politely.

             
“Ok, we will meet you back down here in 30 minutes,” Sallack tells us as he stands, followed by the others as they all head up to their rooms and as soon as they are gone I take Dallah’s hand with a smile as I transport us to her bedroom.

“He is right you know, you will kill him,” Dallah tells me with a snort.

             
“Not if he kills me first,” I tell her seriously.

             
“So what are you wearing?”

             
“Um I’m thinking... this!” I tell her as my clothes disappear, leaving me in a two-piece bikini, that is scarlet red and strapless, with black ruffles along the top, making my boobs look great.

             
“Wow, that is amazing! You look so freaking hot,” She tells me looking at me from head to toe.

As she turns to look in her wardrobe, I mentally dress her in a white bikini that has gold metal straps, and now she look HOT!

              “That is what I’m talking about!” She tells me excitedly before she runs over to the mirror to look at herself and then it hits us at the same time,

             
“Shit! Our markings!” I half scream at her.

             
“We can tell them that to mark us as sister’s I magically tattooed us?”

             
“But Ruk has one too, a really big sexy one on his heart,” I tell her and then fall into a daydream of lying in bed running my fingers over his markings.

             
“Snap out of it! We will just go with that for now, I cannot think of anything else. By the way, yours look amazing against that bikini.”

             
“So does yours, and the way your hair falls directly above it is beautiful,” I tell her with a smile.

Both putting on our dresses we have for over our
swimsuits we are ready, and I cannot wait to see Ruk covered in sand and sweat, yum!

             
“Come on, we can pick up the food and meet them down stairs, they should be ready soon,” She tells me taking my hand to transport us downstairs.

             
“We are going to get really lazy, keep transporting like this Dallah.”

The hot sand under my feet, with the sun beaming down is my idea of heaven, that and watching Ruk’s butt why he walks in front of me.

We all got in two separate Range Rovers to get down here, and as soon as we pulled up, I jumped out, as I couldn’t wait any longer. The beach is stunning with white sand and clear blue sea, and to top it off there is no one but us here.

              “Ok let’s stop here, I can’t wait to get in the sea,” I tell them as we have been walking for what feels like ages, trying to find the ‘right spot’ according to Sallack.

             
“Yeah alright...Where are you going?” He asks me as I have dropped my things to the ground and started to jog over to the sea.

             
“For a swim,” I tell him over my shoulder before whipping my dress over my head and walking into the warm sea.

Breathing out a sigh of happiness, my feet sink into the wet sand beneath the water and the smell of salty air hits my senses.

              “Wait for me!” Mickey shouts ripping off his shirt and running down the sand to join me.

             
“Wow this is what I needed,” He tells me looking out to sea.

             
“Yeah me to,” I tell him with a wide smile.

             
“Well look at you! Where did that come from?” He asks running his hand over my backside, which gets him a slap on the hand.

             
“Hey hands!” I tell him playfully as I know that this is Mickey all over, “Dallah gave it to me, cool hu?”

             
“No! It’s fucking sexy,” He tells me looking at my body intensely.

             
“Come on let’s get in properly!” I say before I dive into the water and swim away.

Julian, Dallah, Dom
, and Theo join us in the water, while Sallack, Ruk, and Den sit back and relax. We mess around in the water for a good hour before I decide that I need to get out and get-my-tan-on, and obviously to see Ruk with his body on show.

Since being with Ruk, I don’t look at Sallack any different than I do the
Brothers’ and the only time Parrise comes to mind is when I worry about him being alone and away from us, which is the best feeling. To only have eyes for one man, to only fantasise about that one person.

             
“Hey pass me a towel?” I ask Ruk who is laying out on the sand, with sweat glistening over his abs.

His head springs up and looks at me
as if I am a tasty steak, before he passes me a towel with a sensual smile.

             
“Here beautiful, come lay next to me,” He tells me while running his hand over the towel beside him.

Laying myself out on it on my front, I face him with a sweet smile, as he releases a sexy growl and he grits his teeth.

              “What the fuck is that?” Den almost shouts at me, while pointing to my markings that cover my lower back hip and butt cheek.

             
“A tattoo,” I tell him simply, as the first words he speaks to me are in a shout, again!

             
“What you and Ruk got matching tattoos?” He asks in disgust.

Ruk sits up and looks Den in the eyes along with a warning growl.

              “Don’t talk to her like that Den, I fucking mean it, I’m sick of your shit!” Ruk shouts at him, while they both stand to their feet, soon followed By Sallack who pushes at their chests to separate them.

             
“Den, I gave them the tattoos, I have one to,” Dallah appears beside him and tells him gently hoping to calm him down.
