Hunted (Custodians book Two) ON HOLD

Chapter Four

Chapter Four

It was a few days after Sam had arrived when things started to go from bad to worse. Ryan had been given half a day off so he could spend some time with Lexi. They went for a run in wolf form for half of the time, then making their way to Lexi’s room so they could have some privacy. She still hadn’t told him about the way the pack had been treating her and she really didn’t want to waste what little time they had together complaining to him, so instead she allowed herself to be lost in his deep kisses as they made out on her bed.

“You know” Ryan said pulling away from her “I don’t know how I ever survived without you in my life” He said giving her a heart melting smile “You have got to be the most perfect person I know”

She couldn’t help the small snort “Yeah right” She said rolling her eyes “I am far from perfect”

“I’m serious Lexi” he said sitting up and taking her hand “I don’t know many females who would sit back and wait for their intended mate to finish his Alpha training. We have hardly spent any time together since you have arrived here and you haven’t complained once. You just patiently wait until I am done so we can finally be mated.”

“Well that’s because you are worth waiting for” She said leaning in to kiss him.

“No it’s because you are so perfect” He connected his lips to hers, it didn’t take long for the kiss to become heated, his lips left hers and slowly made their way down her jaw to her neck. She felt as he started gently nibbling on the exact spot where his mark would go.

“What if” He said softly “I just mark you right now, and then there wouldn’t be any more waiting?”

She tilted her head to the side “Your dad would be mad” She mumbled enjoying the feel of his teeth on her neck “But you would hear any complaints from me”

He sighed into her neck “I don’t want to wait any longer.”

“Then do it”

He paused for a moment. She could feel his breath on her neck. He shifted forward lowering his mouth back down to her neck, jaw open wide so he could mark her. Just as his teeth were about to connect with her skin the bedroom door burst open. Alpha Miller stormed in, stopping in his tracks when he spotted the position his son was in

“What the hell is going on in here?” He asked

“What are you doing storming into Lexi’s room like that?” Ryan asked his father ignoring his question.

“She needs to leave…Now!” He said.

“Leave? What, why?” He asked confused. “You can’t ask her to leave because I was going to mark her. Look I am sorry that I wasn’t going to wait. But she is going to be my mate no matter if we wait or do it now. You have no right to ask her to leave though”

“I’m not asking Ryan, and it’s not because you were going to mark her.” He looked at a confused Lexi. “You are in danger here. The Custodians have all vanished, from every pack. No one knows where they have gone.”

“What do you mean they are gone?” Ryan asked getting off Lexi’s Bed

 “They think that they are responsible for all the attacks that have been going on.” Alpha Miller continued ignoring his son’s question “The packs are going crazy, attacking family members of Custodians. If you stay here, I can’t guarantee that you will be safe, members of the pack have already been vocal about the fact that you will be their Luna. Things will only get worse now that the Custodians have abandoned us”

“So you are making her leave?” Ryan said raising his voice. “That’s just crazy, if it’s too dangerous for her here, it will be even worse out there.”
