Their forced luna
Chapter 2

Zale laughed. "I told you, no one will replace you again, Amanda. You will be mine in every sense of the word, and you will not get away from me, ever." He grabbed my hand in his and pushed it against the barrier we'd just strolled on through. I yelped as fire surged through me and my muscles clenched in place. His eyes searched my face and they darkened with lust. "Yeah, that's the kind of look you're going to be wearing a lot around here." He let my hand go and I cradled it to my chest.

"I don't understand any of this," I cried. I couldn't stop the tears welling up in my eyes. I'd signed up to join a pack, to get away from the one hunting me. I never would have imagined my running away would have led to this.

Zale leaned close before sticking out his tongue and li

cking away my tears. "All you have to know is you're mine, well mine and the pack's." He smirked. "Nothing else matters in your life but making your Alpha happy."

I shuddered. Was this really any better than the incubator that the other wanted me as? "Why is this place so different? Why is it winter over here and why does it hurt to touch that wall?" I didn't care if he got mad at me over all the questions, I had to make this entire scenario make sense. "And why were you even out there if your territory is way over here?"

"You want answers?" Zale's grin spread across his lips, and he licked them, finally blessedly letting me on the ground again.

I welcomed the chill from the snow at this point. Anything to get away from him for a second. "Yes!"

"Let's see how well you follow orders, my little mate. Take your panties off."

I stared at him, numb. "What?" I demanded.

He cocked his head to the side and crossed his arms over his broad chest. The black tanktop he wore was barely holding on over his muscles. It was only a matter of time before the thing got ripped. "Three seconds, if you don't have them off, I'm going to rip them off you."

He could not be serious. It was insanely cold on this side of the barrier.

"One."

He was, he was deathly serious. I grabbed at the pants I wore, pushing them down and left them in a snow drift.

"Two," he continued.

I grabbed the sides of my lacy white panties and thrust them down, baring myself before I grabbed my pants back and pulled them on. He hadn't said I couldn't do that at least. But maybe it was because he hadn't thought about it. I took the sheer cloth and tossed it at his chest.

Zale grabbed it and smiling at me, he ripped it in two, letting the wind take the pieces to who knew where. "I'm no mere Alpha, I'm what is known as a Prime, and you're in my kingdom, lil wolf. The barrier is upheld with magic, only the blood of a prime could ever pull it down, and only a Prime can pass through it unharmed."

I shivered. Even though I had my pants on, I still felt exposed to him. It never got this cold in the forest even during winter. It was all I could do to keep my teeth from chattering. "What's next?" I demanded.

"We're going to meet my brother," he paused. "Well, half brother. Bo is a bastard, but he's good at one thing."

I knew I shouldn't ask, every single word that came out of us mouth only made me fear for my life that much more. "What's that?"

Zale grinned, advancing on me again and picking me back up. His hand slipped into the back of my pants and he grabbed a handful of flesh his lips at my ear. "Training my pets to be exactly what I want them to be."
