Connors Pursuit (Amber Woods Shifters) (18 page)

“No Marcus, everything is ok, I just remembered I had to send a message to Lizzy from the order, when she wakes up I will tell her, sorry about that what where you saying?”

He pushed on her head encouraging her to pick up a rhythm again which she whole heartedly obliged. Connor was in awe, his sexy mate with her juicy lips around his cock was such a turn on and the little minx knew just how to knock him off his guard. His mouth dropped open as she moaned and grabbed his sac gentle massaging. At this rate he was going to blow quickly. Marcus brought him back to reality.

“Yes my alpha we will be there soon”

Ending the call he placed both hands on the side of her head.

“You started this baby you finish this and don’t spill a drop, then you will find what happens when you tease your mate”

Holding her head steady he pumped his hips into her mouth, he was large but as his mate she was a perfect match, destined to be able to take him in every way.

“God Lizzy, so fuckin good, don’t you dare stop”

He felt the tightening in his balls and up his shaft as he came hard in her mouth with a guttural cry.

“Not a drop, I mean it baby”

When he was spent, he pulled out of her mouth and up to stand in front of him. Taking her mouth he kissed her hard, wantin
g to taste the combined fluids. Lizzy yelped as he lifted her and placed her on the kitchen table, ripping her trousers off her.

“Good. I’m pleased to see you left the underwear off, it pleases me and my wolf that you are ready to be taken when I want to”

Lizzy shivered at his dominance as he dove into her folds with his mouth, his tongue dove deep as his hands pushed her thighs wide apart. In seconds she came hard in his mouth.

“Oh god Connor!”

When he was finished he crawled up her body kissing her gently.

“
Now we are even, come on meeting at the alpha house”

“
What now?”

“
Yes baby, get dressed again, remember, no underwear”

“
And if I refuse?”

“
Oh baby you don’t want to find out. You are still going to be punished for that little display back there which by the way was fuckin hot. But you won’t win in dominance baby, I take control in the bedroom, remember that next time I push into your sweet mouth”

Lizzy shivered, wide eyed as Connor winked at her, handing her
the crumpled inside out trousers.

Brianna, Cora and Anna were practically jumping up and down with excitement when she came into the kitchen. As soon as she had sat at the table they saw her claiming mark and had hounded her with questions ever since.

“Oh my god, this is s
o amazing, there is definitely going to be a mating ceremony with lots of food”

Lizzy laughed as Brianna was helping Cora bake cookies, picking up a couple as soon as they came out of the oven.

“Bloody hell Bri, slow down, it only happened last night”

“Ah but it’s the responsibility of the she wolves to make sure that it is the biggest party ever!”

Lizzy rolled her eyes at her pregnant friend.

“So tell us how does it feel to have your wolf back then?” Anna asked

How did it feel? Her emotions were all over the place, she was excited, nervous, worried.

Worried? There is nothing to worry about baby, trust me

I do trust you it’s just like learning to walk again, I mean on four legs not two….oh you know what I mean

Connor chuckled at her remarks.

I know, Marcus is just sorting some pack business then we are ready for you

Ok

“Hello, earth to Lizzy?” Cora was laughing

“What? Oh, right you asked a question”

“Yes we did before you floated off and had a private conversation with that mate of yours” Anna spoke.

Lizzy rubbed her hands over her eyes.

“Sorry, it’s still kind of new. Anyway it’s the most precious thing in the world to have her back, truly a miracle”

Brianna started to cry, causing everyone to jump up and hug her. Seconds later Marcus
flung the kitchen door open.

“What the hell happened in here, why is my mate crying?”

Brianna pushed at him with one finger.

“I’m fine Marcus, just emotional”

Marcus kissed her head before stomping back through the door mumbling something about women. Lizzy giggled at the intrusion.

“Well at least we know that you keep him on his toes”

“And his paws” Anna said

“What?” Lizzy asked

Everyone broke down in laughter such a contrast to the low mood seconds ago. Luke entered the kitchen, pouring himself a cup of coffee and picking up a biscuit. Lizzy noticed how he was carefully watching Anna and how she was doing everything to avoid his eye contact. Taking a sip of the hot beverage he cornered her as she was putting some dishes away in the cupboard.

“Can we talk Anna?”

“What about?”

“I think you know sweetheart
, shutting me out only agitates my wolf”

“I’m not shutting you out Luke”

“Then why are you avoiding my calls or walking out the room when I come in?”

Anna looked around at the kitchen, knowing that everyone could hear them but they were being respectful making lots of noise
as they baked.

“I am here now”

“Yes for the first time in days. We are going to talk Anna as soon as I get back from this assignment, of that there is no doubt. Oh and do not go organising anymore dates, the only man you will be out with is me”

Anna followed his path out the kitchen with her eyes, swallowing hard.
Cora planted her hands on her hips, looking every bit the matriarch with her floured covered apron.

“I swear I cannot keep up with all of these hormones in here, oh to be young again!”

Anna said nothing and walked into the dining room to clear the lunchtime dishes away.

“Wow who would have thought it? Luke settling down?” Brianna asked.

“Well, there is always someone out there, sometimes you don’t have to look too far”

Brianna giggled just as Connor walked in.

“We are ready baby. Time to get a plan in place to get Brandon out of that shit hole. Then I hope we can at least have some quality time together, I swear I have never been on as many assignments since I met you”

“Oh but if you did not go on th
at first assignment, then you and Lizzy would not have met and she could still be dancing on those tables in her heels” Brianna pointed out.

“Never again, that’s a private audience only from now on” he growled.

Lizzy took his offered hand as he led her through to the meeting room, Brianna hot on her heels. Brianna gave Marcus her most haughty look as he shook his head at her as she took her place at the head of the table.

“And just what do you think you are doing?”

“Taking my rightful place as alpha female”

“You know what I mean baby, for the last time you are not coming on this job”

“And like I said you need a bloody good tracker and that would be me”

“Not this time” he growled.

“Oh growl all you like mister, I’m coming and that the end of it”

Marcus looked about the room as a sea of amused faces were watching
the exchange.

“Excuse us for a moment”

Sweeping Brianna up into his arms he carried her out of the room to the audible cursing of her tongue. Lizzy could not help but laugh at the spectacle and knew this would not be the end of it. Marcus returned looking slightly flustered, before taking a deep breath to compose himself.

“Ok, let’s begin.
Luke pull up the schematics of the Oakfield territory and buildings again”

Lizzy
licked her dry lips as the lights dimmed and her old pack homes came into view. If she looked really closely, she could actually make out her old family home. The feel of Connor rubbing circles on her neck brought her back to the present.

“As agreed, the team to rescue Brandon will be Connor, Luke, Tristan and Lizzy
. As you are all aware by now Lizzy has her wolf back, last night went extremely well for her. She has also had an increase in her powers which I believe are controlled at this current moment in time. The order are going to assist Lizzy in this particular area. As such we stick with the original plan to have her open the cage holding her brother.”

Marcus pointed to a large building on the map.

“Lizzy?”

“That’s the main meeting hall, directly below the floor is the holding chambers, it is not shown on the map but believe me it’s there. I think there is an access door at the
top of the hall, made of steel”

Marcus stood with his arms folded in front of him looking every bit alpha male.

“Fine then you know which way to go. Connor you are in charge of the attack”

Connor nodded
his agreement.

“Ok the women. Luke and Tristan have been doing some undercover work for us and we know the identity of the three females. We don’t know how they will react to us, or indeed if they want to leave, but they have to be given a choice. Therefore, Adrianna, you will lead a small team to Lawson’s house, which is where we believe they are staying.”

Lizzy looked over at the petite woman.

Who is she Connor?

Long story but she was born in this pack, left when she was in her teens to train at the warrior academy. She has only just returned to us.

Seriously there is a warrior academy?

Yes baby there is
he laughed

Another voice entered her head, ok now it was weird with Luke in her head.

Since you are now integrated in the pack, you will have to learn to channel you thoughts for just Connor when necessary. But to answer your question yes there is a warrior academy, I was one of their star pupils I will have you know!

Now why do I find that hard to believe?

Hey it’s true ask Brianna.

Luke will you butt out of her head, my wolf is getting
irritable
Connor asked

No
probs Beta, but can you teach your mate to block her thoughts to the pack.

Yes if you will get out of her head!

Okay point taken.

Lizzy was loving the silent
interaction between them, she had missed this very normal part of wolf communication. Her phone vibrated in her pocket, good job it was on silent. Placing it under the table she quickly glanced at her phone, one message sat waiting. She caught Connor looking down at her hands.

Sorry I thought I had switched it off

Make it quick Marcus does not like his meetings interrupted.

Ok

Swiping the screen she double took at the message.

‘Countdown has begun Lizzy, you have two days left then Brandon will experience death of the silver heart. You choose’

She stood so fast her chair fell on the floor.

“Bastard, he wouldn’t
, he just wouldn’t, oh god, we have to leave now”

Connor
had her in his arms instantly, holding her tight growling low in his throat.

“Baby tell me?”

Her phone fell onto the table and Connor wasted no time in reading the message. She could feel how still he had become, daring a quick look at his face she had never seen his eyes glow as they did, he was super pissed off.

“Connor?” Marcus asked

“How the hell did he get her number? I will personally rip his fuckin throat out for threatening my mate, Lawson is mine”

Connor quickly relayed the message.
The energy in the room shifted to anger and Lizzy clung onto Connor just that little bit tighter. Her head was rested against his chest but she turned her face to the room of enforcers all twenty of them, all with eyes lit up like a bloody Christmas tree. Pure anger.

“Oh god Connor we have to go today, you don’t know him, he can change his mind at any time, two days could be tomorrow to him, honour, is nothing to him. If he goes ahead with killing Brandon I will never forgive myself”

Connor stroked her hair, making soothing noises to calm her.

Tristan stepped to the table.

“I agree with Lizzy we have to go today, the drive alone will take few hours to head south. To even suggest death of the silver heart is evil personified”

Every shifter knew that the slowest cruellest form of death was to have liquid silver injected into the heart, it was barbaric, archaic and no longer used, or so they thought.
Connor looked to his alpha, respect shining back at him

“We leave in one hour”

At their alphas command, the room emptied quickly. Connor pulled back kissing her temple. Lizzy felt a female presence behind her and turned. Adrianna placed a hand on her shoulder.
