The resurrection stone and the wolf who seeks it.

Lowell

I watch as Colin runs in the direction of the bathroom and out of sight. I glare at Griffen just before he walks out of the room. I tuck myself back into my shorts and go after him.

What the fuck, do you knock?'' I ask him.

He laughs, "You said there was nothing between you and the kid."

"He is not a kid.''

He scoffs, "He is like eighteen."

"No, he isn't."

He raises a brow in question as he stops walking. We are in the hallway, in front of the door to the room. "He is not eighteen, he is a man, and there is nothing wrong with what we are doing."

"Beau would kill you,'' he mentions Colin's father." That man is one of the special ones. The ones that are chosen by the goddess. He is the wolf everyone aspires to be.

I hate him.

"He is not a child. I don't need permission from his fucking father," I project my anger out on him.

He raises a hand "Is this just sex?'' he asks.

"None of your business. What did you want?'' I changed the topic. I want to go back to Col. I might have just walked out of the room with a release, but I am far from satisfied. I still have a lot I want to do with him. I want to fuck him again. I want him to cry out in the pleasure I know I can give him.

"Just got word from Boris and Zeeb."

I go on high alert because this is something I have been waiting for.

"And?"

"It wasn't in the caves of the Lerana. They are on their way back to the community. "

This is not good news.

This is not what I wanted to hear.

"You fucking interrupted me to give me bad news?'' I shout angrily, grabbing the collar of his shirt and pushing him to the wall. He opens his eyes, but my reaction is not surprising to him. I didn't need to hear this tonight. He could have told me tomorrow.

"I am sorry, I just thought you would want to know.''

"I wanted to know that they had actually found it. I don't need to hear that they failed. "

This is not an overreaction.

"I am sorry, boss, it wouldn't happen again,'' he raises his hands in surrender because he can't even challenge me. He would never win.

"Where is the next destination?'' I ask him.

"The Zunes, it is on the other side of the country. It will take the longest time to find, but Ralph gave the map of secrets to find it faster."

Ralph is the elderly one in the pack, the wise one. The wolf that has lived the longest. He is the only one that can actually find the stone. I need that stone.

I need answers, and the stone is the only one that can give me all the answers I need. And the stone is hidden in a cave. I have been looking for the stone of resurrection for three years now.

At first, I thought it was a myth, something that could not exist in this world, but the vision I had, the one that showed me how to find it has been haunting, and now that is all that I can think about.

Finally, I will have the answers to everything.

"Let them come home and then we will discuss it," I tell him, and he nods immediately.

Griffen is the one person I am close to, but even then, he is still afraid of me, and it is because I have made him that way. I would rather be feared than loved.

I will not make the mistake of loving anyone again. I will not make the mistake of thinking that is possible.

I watch him leave and I go back to the room, full of much disappointment. I look around for Colin and he is still in the bathroom. I walk over to the door of the bathroom and knock on it. "Hey,'' I call out to him.

"Yeah,'' he calls back.

I smile, forgetting the fact that Griffin just fucking pissed me off. "You coming out?''

"No.''

My smile widens. "Why not?"

"Your friend saw me. He saw me with cum all over my face and your dick in my mouth,'' he shouts through the door.

"Can I come in?''

I heard his sigh through the door, "Sure."

I walk into the bathroom and he is seated on the floor with his hands wrapped around his knees.

He looks up slowly as I walk out and his cheeks are red. He is embarrassed and it is the cutest thing I have ever seen.

"You are adorable,'' I go down on my knees.

He covers his face immediately "No I am not. He saw me, I probably looked ridiculous."

"No, you didn't."

He rolls his eyes "Yes I did."

I sigh, "Should I call him back? Give you a blow job in front of him." Would that make you feel better?''

His eyes open wide at my suggestion, but I was serious. I would do it in a heartbeat. I don't give a shit about anything.

"No way, that is equally as embarrassing."

I smile.

He is the cutest.

"How about you come into the room and I give you one too. Suck the embarrassment out of your cock,'' I suggest. He is still a bit shy, but the look in his eyes tells another story, he is thinking about his cock in my mouth.

He wants that.

I just need to get him out of this bathroom first.

"Come on handsome, let this little wolf fuck you again,'' I grab his hands and try to pull him to his feet.

"Can you trust your friend not to say anything?'' he asks.

I sigh "He is not my friend, he is my subordinate. He knows he would die if he mentions it."

"Would you really hurt him?'' he asks.

I nod.

I hurt people that betray me. I hurt people that challenge me, I hurt people that try to outsmart me. I am not a good guy and I am not going to pretend in front of him. He needs to know that all the things he hears about me are true.
