The Merciless Alpha(erotica)

“How long?”

“Two weeks, starting July 31st. We want you out there the 30th to appear at an event in Boston, though.”

As host of the show, I’d get a lot more screen time, I’d do the voice-overs, and get more dives in. I could do it, but I couldn’t leave Amy with just the girls. “I’m in. Send me the details.”

“Do you think Amy would want to make the appearance with you?”

“I’ll ask, but I doubt it. Weekends with Kai are precious, and she isn’t continuing to the expedition.” A few more minutes and she hung up.

I filled the girls in on what was happening. As expected, Amy didn’t want to go to Boston. I’d need security for the travel and appearances, but I didn’t want to pull the twins away from Amy and their training. “Let me call Mom,” she said. “She and Luke want to visit anyway.” After a few calls back home, we had it planned. Our parents would fly out a few days earlier to visit with everyone. Beta Susan and Luke would stay with Amy and the twins, while my Mom and Dad would fly to Boston with me for the appearance, then to the expedition. Colleen would escort me back home after. “Thank Luna for the extra beds,” she said. Our apartment had a fold-out sofa and chair in the living room, plus we had inflatable beds if needed. It would be cozy, but we’d have room.

The weekend couldn’t come soon enough for Amy. She was distracted at the dojo the next morning, and Hammer called her out on it. “Your enemy doesn’t care about your problems. He will ruthlessly exploit your lack of awareness,” he told her as he locked her in a submission hold. She tapped out and rolled to her hands and knees. “Again.”

She got her focus back, this time getting around his back to apply a chokehold. I was proud of her; she was the best of us four at grappling, and her eyesight wasn’t as much a disadvantage when fighting from the ground. Hammer had me going against a male who outweighed me by fifty pounds and had years of training on me. I was getting my ass kicked. The twins were taking on two girls but had nowhere the skill. Hammer started calling them “tackling dummies.”

We all needed the hot tub after lunch.This is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Amy was practically bouncing as we waited outside the training facility for the class to walk out. The same women we talked to at the luncheon were standing outside their cars with us. The fences and buildings kept the training area out of sight, so we could only wait. I looked at my watch, and it was nearly five.

We heard a loud shout, and a few moments later, the first men came out of the building. I hear other wives scream and run to meet their men, while I waited for Kai to come out. I saw him walking with three Petty Officers, all in their summer-white uniforms. “He’s coming,” I told Amy.

My best friend let out a squeal as Kai wrapped his arms around her and swung her around. As he was kissing her senseless, I smiled at the three guys with him. “Hi, I’m Vicki,” I said as I extended my hand towards the closest man.

“Larry Owens, from South Dakota,” the man said with a Midwestern accent. “This is Ricardo and Manuel Jiminez. They hail from San Antonio.”

“A pleasure to meet you,” I said as I shook the twin’s hands. Larry was probably twenty, but the twins looked like they just graduated from high school. All of them were well-muscled, but not bulky.

“Thank you for taking us in,” Ricardo said. “I can’t wait to get some real food.”

I laughed at this as they put their bags in the back of the SUV. “Oh, we will feed you,” I said. “Climb in, and we’ll get going.”

Kai and Amy had finally broken apart, and he helped her back into the center seat as he sat on the passenger side. “We’ll be home in fifteen minutes,” I told them. Mykayla Kirk was right; all four fell asleep before we left the base. “He looks exhausted,” I sent to Amy.

“We’ll get him back.” She leaned into her sleeping mate as I drove us back home. Makani and Noelani were waiting for us as I pulled into the garage. The men wouldn’t move unless you made them. Amy kissed Kai until he woke up, but we weren’t doing that. “Help get the guys on your side up and out,” I told the twins.

I got Larry up and moving, but the twins took a little longer to get the twins going. When they were all standing, I made introductions. “Larry, Ricardo, and Manuel, these girls are…”

“Off limits,” Kai quickly said.

I glared at him. “This is Makani and Noelani, Kai’s younger sisters. They are seventeen-years-old and going into their senior years in high school, hence Kai’s protectiveness. You can tell the difference because Makani has an earring inside her left ear, while Noelani has ‘no’ earring.”

Larry shook their hands while the twins were smiling widely. “We’re only eighteen,” Ricardo whispered.

“I HEARD THAT,” Kai said as he walked into the house.

“Come on,” Noelani said. “We’ve got some food for you, and your beds are ready.”

“I think I love you,” Manuel said as he followed them inside. I had them hang up their uniforms, shower, and leave their dirty clothes in a basket in the hall. The men were used to moving quickly, so they were done in minutes.

The girls helped them eat pulled pork sandwiches and chips, and then Noelani brought out her surprise dessert. “I baked these special for you; Hammer said they were the best dessert for someone getting done with Hell Week,” she said proudly. She opened up the tin, exposing the homemade treats. “Sugar Cookies!”

Kai almost choked on his sandwich, Larry just stared at her with his eyes wide, while the twins started laughing their asses off. Noelani was almost crying, thinking she did something wrong. “I’ll eat your cookies any day,” Manuel said with a grin as he reached for one.

“They look a lot better than the ones we get,” Ricardo agreed as he took a bite. “Very good! Thank you, Noelani.”

She looked to her brother for an explanation. “Kiddo, ‘sugar cookie’ has a different meaning at BUD/S. As a punishment, the instructors send you out into the surf. When you are soaked, they have you roll around in the fine sand until it is EVERYWHERE, and you look like a sugar cookie.” I could see Noelani’s ears getting red as she got mad. “The sand rubs against you the rest of the day, and it sucks like you can’t believe. This Hammer guy was fucking with you.”

“I’m going to kill him,” Noelani said. “I thought I was doing something nice for you!”

“You did,” Larry said. “They’ll never turn me into a sugar cookie again without me thinking of you ladies and your special dessert. That dream will get me through the day.” He couldn’t stop yawning. “I need to sleep,” he said.

Amy took Kai into their room, and I didn’t expect them to come out for a day or so.

“Come on,” I said. I led Larry to the fold-out single bed from the chair, and he was out as soon as his head hit the pillow.

“I hope you guys don’t mind sharing this bed,” Makani asked the twins as she led them to the fold-out sofa.

“Are you kidding? These accommodations are two kids short of normal,” Manuel said as he pulled the sheet back. “Unless you join us.”

“I think it’s better for everyone if we don’t,” Noelani said with a laugh.

“Get all the sleep you need,” I told them. Seconds later, they were dead to the world.

We finished eating and cleaned the kitchen, then headed out to the deck to enjoy the evening. “Don’t flirt too much with those boys,” I warned.

“They seem nice, and they’re our age,” Noelani said.

“But we won’t do anything until we are of age,” Makani said. “I wouldn’t mind if they were our mates, though. They are hot as hell and would make great Betas. Plus, with human mates, we wouldn’t have to change Packs.”

I just let a sigh out. “Well, none of those boys are MY mate. I don’t even know if Luna has granted me another yet,” I said. “What are we going to do about Hammer and his joke?”

“I’m going to choke him out,” Noelani said.

“Let’s gang up on him,” Makani agreed.

“Or we get Kai to help,” Noelani continued.

I had an idea. An evil, twisted, wicked plan took shape, and the girls were excited to put it into play.
