Jaded Hearts
Chapter 19

Matt

As we left the house, I took Taylor’s hand and began a slow, comfortable stroll to the falls.

It was about a two-mile walk, but it was such a beautiful day, and I didn’t want to waste it in the car. I took her through the Blue Moon Village, where most of the pack lived so that she could see how a normal day for a werewolf looked.

“The company does really well, so well that none of the pack has to pay for things like rent, electricity, or water. Being a member of our pack guarantees you shelter and family. That’s something Xander’s family has always been firm believers in.”

“So, if they don’t have to pay for anything, why do they work?” she asked.

“They pay for food, TV, clothes … basically everything else. It’s not a free ride; just their housing is covered.”

“That’s a big burden taken off them. I love it.”

She smiled as we walked further into the village, and I showed her around. The majority of the pack were extremely friendly and came out to meet their Gamma female with excitement and tons of respect. I could see that she was a little uncomfortable with the way they were treating her, but she had to get used to the position she held here.

“Are they always so welcoming? I’ve never just been accepted this easily before,” she asked.

“For the most part. Packs thrive on tradition, and traditionally, the alpha, beta, gamma, and their mates are the most respected members of the pack. They help keep things running smoothly, so the pack can live their lives. You may not see it yet, but being the Gamma female comes with responsibilities. The respect you’re being given is appropriate.”

Just then, because the world couldn’t just let me have one damn day of peace and tranquility, one of my least favorite shewolves, Shelly, spotted me and walked over.

“Oh, for Christ’s sake …”

Taylor looked confused until she saw the bleached blonde woman adjusting her hair and clothes and licking her lips, heading in our direction.

“Wow,” was all she could say.

“I apologize in advance, tesoro. I’ll explain in a few minutes.”

“Oh, I have no doubt about that.”

I g*****d out loud. Shelly was ruining my f*****g day, and she hadn’t even spoken to me yet. Then she did … f**k!

“Hey, sexy. You were supposed to call me, but you didn’t. You made me break up with my boyfriend for you; the least you could do is call. But I’m willing to forgive you for a k**s.”

Taylor just shot up an eyebrow and crossed her arms over her chest, looking at me expectantly and waiting for my reply.

“Shelly, you misunderstood. I was never going to call you, and I didn’t tell you to break up with anyone. I just needed your help with something that only you could help me with.”

s**t! That sounded so much worse coming out than it did in my head.

“And I helped you, didn’t I? I gave you what you needed, so why haven’t I gotten what I need? You said we were friends, so, are we still friends, Matt?”

“Yeah, are you still friends, Matt? I’m really dying to know,” Taylor chimed in.

s**t! s**t! s**t! s**t!

“Who’s this, handsome? I can smell she’s human, so I know she can’t be too important. Maybe just a toy until the two of us finally get together?”

Taylor made a move to approach Shelly, but I put my hand out to stop her. “Shelly, do you enjoy your life? In general, I mean, not so much as part of the pack.”

She looked confused but smiled at me and nodded. “Yeah, it’s cool. It’d be better if I could be with you—”

“Stop. Talking!”

She jumped back at my tone, still not getting what was going on.

“Shelly, listen to me very carefully. You and I are never getting together. That was never going to happen. Get it out of your tiny, bleach-damaged brain.”

She ran her fingers through her wiry straw-like hair and pouted. Then she looked over to Taylor, who was smiling back at her. Shelly smirked as she spoke.

“You just need to get rid of your pet. I guess it’s okay to try something different, but eventually, you’ll have to come back to your own kind. Our Gamma can’t slum it for too long; we have a reputation to uphold.”

Before I had a chance to respond, Taylor shot out her right fist and connected with Shelly’s nose. I heard the crunch and knew it was broken. When she registered what had just happened, Shelly’s eyes flashed black, and she was getting ready to fire back.

Not while I’m still alive and breathing.

I growled loud and deep, causing her to immediately submit. “If you lay one f*****g finger on her, I will crush every bone in your pathetic body. Am I clear?”

“Yes, Gamma.”

“I could have you banished for what you’ve just done, Shelly. Rogues don’t have too much access to bleach or push-up bras, so I don’t know how long you’d last out there. Apologize. Now!

“I could have you banished for what you’ve just done, Shelly. Rogues don’t have too much access to bleach or push-up bras, so I don’t know how long you’d last out there. Apologize. Now!”

She looked up, shocked. “To her? This human b***h who just broke my nose? Why would I?”

“This human is my girlfriend, my mate, and the love of my life. She is your Gamma female, and you will respect her. And if those are not good enough reasons, you will apologize because I f*****g said so!”

“Sorry.”

I growled again, even louder. I’d had just about enough of this b***h, and my patience was wearing really thin. Shelly jumped and quickly spoke.

“Gamma, I apologize for how I behaved towards you and your mate. I assure you it will never happen again, and I beg your forgiveness.”

I looked down to see Taylor standing there looking like she wanted to attack Shelly again. My baby was a little warrior, small but fierce.

“Is she forgiven, tesoro?”

Taylor stepped in front of me and looked Shelly in the eye. “The man behind me is mine. He may not bear a mark, but he is taken. Do yourself a favor and don’t ever make the mistake of taking my humanity or my skin color as a weakness again. I promise you won’t like the outcome. And this ‘pet’ that he’s slumming it with is tired of the bullshit. I’ve dealt with enough of it in my life, so I absolutely won’t take it from you. Are we understanding each other?”

“Yes, ma’am.”

“Good. Come on, baby, let’s continue our walk. And Shelly? You should get your nose looked at. It’s bleeding pretty bad.”

She took my hand and pulled me down the road. “Damn, you’re scary when you’re mad. It’s crazy sexy, though,” I told her while pulling her into a hug.

“Thanks. But I’m not one for the racist bullshit. I will gladly fight a wolf to prove it.”

“I know, baby, and we don’t tolerate that in our pack either. Shelly will be dealt with. Even if you weren’t her Gamma female, she shouldn’t have talked about you that way. That’s not who we want in this family.”

“You don’t feel like you’re ‘slumming it’?”

“I’m spending my life with a queen. If this is the slums, then I’m never leaving.”

“So, please explain to me what that girl’s problem is.”

“Honestly? I kinda seduced her while she was with her boyfriend to make her tell me where her best friend was hiding. Then I went to the best friend’s house, seduced and tranquilized her, then brought her back to the packhouse where Kade tortured her before Xander killed her.”

“What?!”

“It’s a really long story, baby.”

“I’ve got all day. Start talking.”

* * *

By the time we made it to the waterfall, I had told Taylor all about the crazy kidnapping and poisoning mess that went on last year. She was shocked over the details, but she seemed like she understood why we did what we did.

“I have to admit, I think it’s hilarious that Xander used you as his own personal incubus.”

“A what?”

“An incubus. It’s usually a demon who takes on a male’s form and seduces women to have s*x with them, but the women are usually asleep. You did tranquilize one, then carted her off to her death, so maybe the definition is more accurate than I thought.”

“I didn’t seduce women to have s*x with them. I did it for informational purposes only. And besides, it was against my will. Every time it was against my will.”

“So Xander used you as a s*x slave?”

“What s*x?! There was never any s*x.”

Taylor was bent over, laughing. This really was funny to her.

“Ha ha. No one understands what I had to go through, babe.”

“Stop whining, pretty boy. Xander used your family curse to his advantage. It’s actually smart. If you’ve got someone irresistible to women and you need information out of women, why not use what you’ve got? No one thinks Xander had you out on the corner or anything, so chill out.”

“The corner?!”

Again, she laughed so hard that tears rolled down her face. I just stood there and watched. She was so beautiful like this, and so happy. I’d gladly do my incubus duties again and again if it made her smile this way. When she had recovered, we took off our shoes and walked into the shallow water.

The water felt amazing, and soon, I had an idea. I walked up behind Taylor and pulled her shirt over her head.

“Ahhh! What are you doing?”

“I’m getting my girlfriend naked, what does it look like?”

“Matt, we’re out in the open. Anyone could walk up and see us!”

“That just makes it more exciting, doesn’t it?”

I reached down and unbuttoned her shorts, then slowly slid them and her panties down over her h**s.

“Matt!”

“I don’t see you stopping me, tesoro. If you want me to stop, you just have to say so.”

She bit her l*p and looked around. There were only squirrels and chipmunks around to see what we were doing. We were completely alone. When she looked back at me, I felt her fingers creeping under my shirt before she had it pulled up and over my head.

“For as sweet and innocent as you look on the outside, you sure do like screwing in public.”

I reached behind her and unfastened her bra. “You bring out my inner bad boy.” I lifted her up and wrapped her legs around my waist, walking to deeper water.

As soon as it was up past my waist, I adjusted my shorts and slipped inside of her. “f**k, Taylor. I’ll never get used to how good you feel.”

I firmly cradled her a*s in my hands and used the water to help bounce her up and down on my d**k. Every time she dropped, I would thrust upwards to meet her, pushing as deep as I possibly could. Taylor wrapped her arms around my neck and held on tightly. With the slickness of the water, it was hard for her to get a grip and keep it.

I continued to bounce and thrust as I walked over to a huge boulder at the edge of the falls. It had been worn smooth from years of being battered by the water.

“Prop yourself up.”

She placed her hands behind her back on the rock as I set my footing between her thighs. Taylor looked me in my eyes and licked those perfect, juicy lips of hers. Seeing her like this out in nature did something to me; it made me crazy. It brought out the beast in me. In one fluid move, I had rammed my d**k as far inside her as I could.

I felt when the tip of my head collided against her cervix, making her scream out. I immediately stopped and took a step back. “s**t! Did I hurt you, baby? I’m so sorry.”

“What?! Hurt me? If you don’t get your a*s back over here right now, I swear I’ll murder you in your sleep.”

My sweet little angel was getting dirtier and dirtier by the second. I didn’t waste any more time. I stepped forward, grabbed her h**s, and penetrated her in one motion.

“God!!”

My fingers dug in as I held her steady and f****d her as hard and fast as I possibly could. I let myself go, and when I felt her clench down on me, a deep growl bubbled up my chest.

“s**t, that’s so f*****g sexy, baby. I love it when you growl like that.”

Those words from her mouth opened the door, and I could feel Logan fighting to come out. I kept my rhythm and tried to push him back.

“Your eyes … Logan.”

He growled again, seeing the recognition in Taylor’s expression.

By this time, her thighs were shaking around my waist, and she had to go down onto her elbows to keep her top half above water.

“Let him out, Matt.”

Logan tore to the surface and spun her around, bent her over the boulder, and pounded the hell out of her sweet little p***y. “Mine!”

“Yes … I’m yours!”

He leaned over her and bit down on her ear.

“Ahhhh!”

“I knew you’d feel like heaven. Do you want me to make you c*m?”

“Yes.”

Logan could feel the snug grip of her warm, wet p***y, and it made him even wilder. He grabbed a handful of her hair and pulled her up to his chest, placing a firm hand around her throat.

“Do you like how I feel inside you, mate?”

“Yes!”

He was pumping his shaft into her furiously with long, hard thrusts. Taylor’s head was all the way back as she eagerly pushed her a*s back to meet his h**s. She let out a deep m**n and dug her nails into Logan’s firm thighs. Through our shared body, he felt her p***y muscles flexing tightly around his d**k before she quivered all over.

A thick rush of her warm nectar coated him as she let out a long, ear-splitting scream. Logan continued to pump his hard c**k in and out of her, prolonging her climax. He held on as along as he could, but the vice-like grip of Taylor’s velvet walls had him roaring out his release shortly after.

Spurt after spurt after spurt, he coated her womb until he was empty.

Logan released the grip he had on Taylor’s throat, letting her slump over onto the boulder. “Dear god, that was intense,” she said through labored breaths.

“We can go again, mate. I need to make you scream my name.”

Taylor turned around and looked over his shoulder with wide eyes.

“As good as that sounds, Logan, we’ve got company, and I have no idea where my clothes are.”

He turned as well to see a family of four walking into the clearing with a blanket and picnic basket in tow.

f*****g hell …
