“Xerxes, it’s Sadie. Open up!” my alpha’s voice yelled outside.

Great, I was fucking hallucinating.

The door rattled as someone kicked it aggressively. “XERXES!” The delicate scent of cranberries caressed my nose.

Fuck. I wasn’t hallucinating. She was really outside the door, and my hips pistoned faster as I imagined her taking my seed.

I punched the bed and moaned in despair.

No. This was wrong; she didn’t want me.

She needed to get away from me.

The tethers of control I’d prided myself on were ravaged at my feet, symbolic of what I wanted to do to her.

With all my might, I shouted with authority, “Go away, Sadie!”

Please, moon goddess, make her walk away. Protect her from me.

Sadie shouted back, and my balls tightened at the sound of her voice, the scent of cranberries growing stronger.

Mindlessly, I yelled back.

My dick was back in my palm, and I was tugging at it as hard as I could, barely conscious, until she yelled that she was going to kick the door and hurt herself.

FUCK. I banged my fist against my head. “No! Sadie, you aren’t coming in here!”

Sadie said she was going to hurt herself.

Before I could stop myself, I threw open the door, instinctually catching her leg midswing.

My brain short-circuited…I was touching her.

Staring down at my fingers, I marveled as her calf muscles bunched against my palm. So delicate yet so powerful.

My alpha looked like a princess but fought like a warrior.

Even now, dark bruises covered her skin, remnants of the beatings she’d taken. The beatings she’d survived.

It only made her hotter.

Intoxicating cranberries filled my senses, and my vision crystalized with hyperfocused clarity as my mouth watered.

My need to taste fucking cranberries or die battled with my respect for Sadie. She deserved a gentleman, not a rabid animal.

A wave of blinding pain, the worst yet, made my dick jerk against my stomach and sticky precum smear my abs.

Fucking cranberries.

Feminine arousal spiked like an aphrodisiac, and every thought fled my brain as my hand wrapped tighter around Sadie’s leg.

The choice was out of my hands. It was already made.

I yanked my alpha into my nest, and as I threw her onto the bed I’d been rutting against, I omega-whined with excitement.

Skin smoldering, I shredded my pants, desperate to show off my cock to my alpha.

Sadie’s white hair fanned around her, gold skin glowing in the firelight, as my warrior princess lay on the bed. In my nest.
