She wasn’t like a lot of the females in the pack. She had full hips, a slender waist, large tits, and a nice juicy set of thighs. To him, she didn’t look fragile, she looked ready to take on the world, and he fucking loved that. He felt his cock start to harden, but this wasn’t about him tonight.
“Run,” he said. “If I catch you, I win, and if you evade me, you win.”
“Wait, what do I win?” she asked.
“We’ll have to find out what you want.”
“And what do you win?”
“You’re going to have to wait to find out what I want.”
She looked doubtful. “I’m not sure about this.”
“You want to back down, or do you want to know what it really feels like to be a wolf?”
She glared at him. “You know what I want.”
“Then run, and hope I don’t catch you.”
****
It was official.
This was insane and crazy.
Or possibly crazy and then insane.
None of this made any sense to her, but yet, the moment Dex gave her that warning look that she had come to associate with him, she didn’t linger. Hell, no, she turned on her heel and ran like crazy. She had no idea where she was going.
She couldn’t believe she was running away from Dex in her underwear. There had better not be any of the pack around as she felt this was going to require way too many questions and she didn’t have a clue how she would be able to answer them.
But once again, Dex was at her rescue, trying to make her feel better. She didn’t know why he was always there when she needed him. It had been that way for as long as she could remember. Even before they started school, Dex was always there.
At first, running through the forest naked didn’t feel special, other than the fact she was in her underwear running from her soon-to-be Alpha.
Casey didn’t quite know when that feeling changed, but she felt the air on her face and the earth beneath her feet. It was fast, and it took her breath away. She didn’t want it to stop.
And then, she heard Dex as he began to make chase.
She started to slow down, as she knew she was no match for Dex. He’d be able to do whatever the hell he wanted. Everyone knew how good he was, faster and stronger than everyone else. She knew she wasn’t going to make this easier for him, but she was going to make him work for it.
Running as fast as she was able, which she didn’t feel was a great speed, she was feeling like her lungs were about to explode. It felt incredible, and with Dex gaining on her, she didn’t know what he was going to want from her.
Dex never told her what he wanted. He never asked for a single thing, not even back in high school. Whenever he saw her getting bullied, the person doing the bullying would end up on their face, and he’d hold out a hand for her to take. Everyone knew they messed with her at their own risk. Sometimes they tried to do it in secret, but Dex had his ways of finding out. Most of the time, she didn’t even need to tell him what had happened or who had done it. He’d been able to detect who they were by simply scenting her skin.
To some people that was weird, but she also knew it was the Alpha part of him that was able to do the things he did. She also knew, one day, when he did take over from Klaus, he would be just as good as his father.
Dex had a heart, although he tried to hide it. Her mother once said that the only problem with Dex was that someone he cared about kept getting hurt.
Casey suddenly came to a stop as she realized who she was talking about. The pack hurt her. Dex cared about her.
She spun around as Dex came toward her, and she stared at him. For so long she had wondered who he cared about, but it would seem for the longest time it had been her.
“I’ve got you,” he said.
Her back was to the tree. She kept panting, and much to her surprise it only took a few seconds to catch her breath.
“It’s me,” Casey said. “I am the one you care about.”
Dex stared at her, and he took one step, then another, until he reached out and rested his hand against the side of her head.
She didn’t know what to say or do, she could only look at him. “That’s right, isn’t it?”
“Did you not know?” he asked.
“I … I … no.”
He smiled. “You know, for a clever woman, Casey, you sometimes are a little dumb.”
“Why?” she asked.
“Because you didn’t know it was you I cared about.”
