AN: Here's the latest chapter that I hope you enjoy and as always please review!
Sitting in the back of the cab on her way to join John at bar Pack Attack for lunch, she shakes her head at the name. Pack Attack, really? Not very original, but then again these were wolves she's speaking of. Smiling she thinks of her pack and what a difference it's made in their lives, hers and especially Taylor's. And speaking of that son of hers, she can remember being so nervous about telling him about John being her mate and a wolf only to be the one who's surprised by her over observant son. Plus John had gone behind her back and introduced Taylor to his pack already.
~Flashback~
Wiping down the kitchen counter for what had been like the hundredth time, she fails to notice Taylor watching her with a smirk firmly planted on his face. Looking up she catches him though. "What?" She asks him eyes narrowed.
"Mom why don't you just come out and tell me already! Geez! It's not like I'm a little kid or that I don't know what's going on between you and John."
The little shit was actually smirking at her and yes its official he's been hanging out with John way too much.
Crossing her arms over her chest, her eyes once again narrowed in his direction. "So tell me what exactly do you think you know about John and I?"
Smirking even more he replies. "I know you and John are together. I know you're his mate seeing how he's a wolf and all." He smiles wide at her as her mouth hangs open in shock as well as surprise.
Sputtering while trying to gather her thoughts at the turn of events she asks. "How do you know John is a wolf? And how the hell did you find out I'm his mate?"
"Mom, seriously? You didn't really think all the time John and I spent together we were just playing basketball did you?" Shrugging, his shoulders he continues. "Besides I found out when he rescued me from Elias's men. I mean you should have seen how fast he moved plus with his eyes flashing silver it was a dead giveaway. And I guess I'm just a very observant kid."
Taking a deep breath to calm her nerves before she continues with Taylor she replies. "That still doesn't explain how you even know about wolves in the first place."
"Oh yeah Grandma told me all about the wolves a long time ago plus after John rescued me I asked even more questions and she was happy to answer. And I guess when she met John after hearing so much about him from me she knew what he was." Shrugging his shoulders like it was no big deal he continues. "Mom it's really not that big of a deal and actually I'm excited after talking with John and finding out what all this mating stuff means for me at least. For the two of you, just ewwww. I really don't want to go there." He says that with a smirk but then swallows hard looking at her with such a vulnerable and scared look on his face.
"Taylor, baby what's wrong?" She asks because she knows something's on his mind that he wants to share with her but he's almost afraid to.
Shaking his head he sighs as he watches her trying to gather his thoughts.
"It's just that John said..he said, that with you being his mate that according to pack law that makes me…his cub. Although I'm not a baby, I still like the fact that he wants to claim me into his pack. And I don't know, it's just that it be nice to finally have a dad you know." He whispers this last part out with such hope that it brings tears to her eyes since she's always known he'd wanted a father, but the chance never presented itself until now...until John.
Smiling thru her tears as she gives him the biggest hug, she steps back with her hands resting on his shoulders as she looks him in the eye . "Yes, I know it would be nice for you and I'm glad that you're excited about finally getting to have a bas ass for a father. And since John has already told you everything, it seems like he likes having a brand new 'cub' as well."
This brings a smile to his face as he pumps his fist in the air and exclaims. "Yes!"
Joss chuckles shaking her head at his antics but, still glad that he's so excited about John and her being mated as well as having John as a father figure. And she couldn't think of a better father figure for their 'cub' than her mate. Of course she still plans on chewing his ass out for going behind her back in the first place with Taylor.
~End of Flashback~
Shaking out of her reverie she looks up as the cab comes to a stop in front of the bar. Paying the driver she exits, making her way inside only to stop at the scene before her. Sitting at the booth looking just a tad too cozy with her mate is none other than Zoe. She was the bitch that's been sniffing around John for what seems like forever, even before they were mated and it continues now, but she's determined that after today it will stop.
Taking a deep breath trying to calm down as she slowly makes her way towards their booth. She knows that John was well aware of her arrival the moment her foot hit the sidewalk. Reaching the booth Joss stops as John gets ready to rise, but she stops him as she slides in next to him.
Turning, to grab his shirt, she slams her mouth on his. Slipping her tongue into his eager mouth and hearing the rumbling coming from his chest as he fists her hair in his hand, he takes control of the kiss, biting her lip, and making her moan.
Needing to breathe they come up for air as he lays his forehead against hers. He takes a deep breath and leans back against the booth shooting her a wink and a shit eating grin at the obvious display of jealousy and possessiveness. Glaring at him she turns to Zoe with a fake smile and says. "So Zoe what brings you here today?"
She looks at John and he nods his head giving her permission to disclose the secret they share. "Actually I came to give John some pertinent information about Elias. It seems he's still intent on getting to you so I knew John would want to know about this immediately." She leans back, looking at her mate like he's a meal waiting to be devoured. But if Joss had anything to say about that and she does, this bitch was going to starve.
"Well isn't that nice of you to come all the way over here when a simple phone call would suffice." She replies as she runs her hands up and down John's arm. Zoe notices this and her eyes lock on hers as she's just thrown down the gauntlet.
Smiling at Joss's obvious displays of jealousy and possessiveness she says. "Well yes I could have called but since John and I are such good close friends I felt the need to tell him up close and in person."
'Oh no this bitch didn't!' She thinks to herself. She sees that she's going to have to let Zoe know that she means business. So smirking, leaning back and replying. "Actually, you're so right about telling him in person with the two of you being such close good friends. So I must apologize for my behavior, but you know how it is with so many desperate, pathetic bitches throwing their asses in the air just waiting to hit their knees in front of my mate. Of course even though you're still single, without a pack or mate I'm sure you have no idea what I'm talking about." Crossing her arms over her chest, Zoe smiles then her nostrils flare and showing her canines as her eyes flash, trying to contain her wolf.
Next to her, John growls, issuing a warning as the bar goes dead silent as tension ripples the air. Joss throws up her hands in an 'I've got this' move, he calms down. Reaching behind her back pulling a vicious looking 100 percent silver serrated knife, a gift from John, she stabs it into the center of the table. "If you think flashing your eyes and canines at me scares me then you really are sadder than you look. So unless you want me to cut out those canines and wear them as a fucking necklace, then I suggest you put…them…away."
Zoe looks at her as she realizes that even if she's only just a mere human that Joss was still one dangerous bitch. Pushing or in this case shoving her wolf back down, she looks from her to John and back again as if realizing her mistake. Lifting her hands up, trying to convey no harm was meant. "I didn't come here for trouble. I only came to relay the information about Elias and meant no harm."
Staring at her, tilting her head and smiling as she responds. "That's good to know you didn't mean any harm because if I thought otherwise…well let's just say between this silver blade and silver bullets in my guns, I'd be obliged to act accordingly. But since no harm was intended, it's all good and I'm sure from here on out, you and I will NEVER have this problem again will we Zoe?"
Clenching her jaw she grits out. "No we won't and I think that's my cue to leave. John it's been a pleasure as always. Detective!" She gets up, picking up her purse and coat ,head held high and struts out the door never once looking back.
Turning to look at John and replying. "What, no pleasure for me?"
He simply smirks and shakes his head as he watches her, his mate, pick up the blade and place it back in its sheath at the small of her back.
"What?" She asks already knowing the fucking answer to his smirk.
Leaning closer, he whispers in her ear. "You did everything but piss on me while staking your claim Joss. And it was fucking…hot! So hot that I'm rock hard for you, baby." The last part was said so huskily, and practically dripping with sex that her nipples harden and she has to clench her legs together as her heart beats a little faster at his words.
He growls smelling her arousal, but knowing they need to stop before things get out of control fast so she decides to change the subject. "So what did she know about Elias's latest plan of attack?"
Watching as he tries to shake off his lust filled thoughts as he replies. "It seems our friend Elias is planning yet another move against you only we have no idea when or where this attack is to take place." He growls out the last part.
Reaching over and patting his chest trying to calm him down as a couple of ideas pop into her head. "Well, what if we could kill two birds with one stone." She asks.
"How?" He asks clearly confused.
"Well what if I said I had a plan to not only lure Elias to where we want him but also play out one of my fantasies."
Smirking he says. "If this fantasy includes you on your knees, I'm all in Joss."
Huffing, pretending to be mad even as a blush spreads across her face as the other wolves in the bar chuckle having overheard John. "John!" She hisses out but it lacks any real bite to it as she continues with the plan. She leans closer whispering. "I've always had a Little Red Riding Hood fantasy and since I now have my very own personal big bad ass wolf, I thought you could help make my fantasy a reality. Plus, if we also lure Elias out there then we would be killing two birds with one stone. No pun intended of course just purely coincidental."
He looks at her smiling. "So you have a fantasy of being chased down by the big bad wolf and then fucked out in the woods. Because if we do this you…will…be…fucked!" John grabs the back of her head fisting her hair as he kisses her hard.
Reaching between his legs Joss strokes him thru his pants finding him hard and ready.
Tearing his mouth off hers he growls and says. "You have one maybe two seconds to remove your hand or be prepared to be fucked right here and right now in front of everyone in this place."
Even though the images his words bring to mind are enticing and causes her arousal to rise she removes her hand not wanting to push him or her luck any further. Swallowing hard she asks huskily. "So are we going to lure him out to our neck of the woods? And are we going to make my fantasy a…reality?"
Looking at him she sees his nostrils flare as his eyes flash silver and his body goes tense as he growls out. "Oh yes we'll go with your plan and set things in motion to get Elias where we want him and deal with that piece of shit once and for all. But afterwards you'd better prepare yourself for a wild and long night cause usually after a fight we wolves simply love to…fuck. With the taste of blood and being out in our natural setting of nature it really gets us going and going. And baby once I've got you in the woods surrounded by nature and our pack you will be taken to your knees and mounted and fucked hard. Do you understand?"
She's so fucking turned on all she can do is moan and nod her head as they sit and go over plans for Elias and of course the fantasy. But it was almost too difficult to concentrate as her mind kept straying to her Little Red Riding Hood fantasy and she knows it's going to be a very long 24 hours until she can get any relief.
