Wet for the Alpha (The Ridge Brothers Bear Shifters Book 3)

by Olivia T. Turner

  I hold the hammer out in warning as he begins to slink over. That cat has murder in his eyes as he crouches low to the ground.

  He suddenly pounces forward and rushes at me. I swing the hammer around to scare him, but my hands are so shaky and my palms are so sweaty that it slips right out of my hand and falls to the ground out of reach.

  “No!” I scream when my brother’s savage lion leaps into the air. He’s coming right at me with his claws out and his teeth ready to kill.

  I close my eyes, cover my face, and wince in anticipation for the deadly blow, but it never comes.

  When I open my eyes, my mate’s bear has the lion in his powerful jaws. He’s gripping Killian’s hind leg, keeping him away from me.

  He slams him into the ground and then stomps his massive front paws on the cat as he releases his leg with a roar.

  Killian is thrashing around, trying to break free. His one evil eye is still locked on me as he snarls in a rage. If that bear lets go, my brother is going to kill me.

  But he won’t let go. He’s my mate and he will die before he lets anything happen to me, and he’ll kill anyone who tries.

  With a loud possessive roar that I feel in my gut, the grizzly bear chomps his strong jaws down onto the lion’s neck.

  Killian’s golden eye widens in surprise and then slowly fades to a dull nothingness as the bear bites down on his neck with a crushing hold.

  When he’s certain that the lion is dead, Cash’s bear lets go and walks over to make sure I’m okay. My heart breaks for him. He’s bleeding heavily in more spots than I had initially noticed. His thick fur hides most of it, but up close I can see all of the cuts and gashes that my brother gave him.

  I take a deep breath, knowing that shifters heal fast and that he’ll probably be okay.

  My eyes dart over to the dead lion lying in a pool of blood. Killian won’t heal from that.

  It’s over. His reign of terror on my life is finally over.

  The relief I feel is overwhelming.

  And I owe it all to Cash and the protective beast in front of me.

  I pet his cheek as tears fill my eyes. “Thank you,” I whisper to him. “Thank you so much.”

  The bear licks my neck then turns and runs off to help out his brothers.

  Once their alpha falls, the four lions quickly lose the will to fight. The three grizzly bears quickly overpower them and after everyone phases, Damon calls the Sheriff.

  I gulp when I see him drive onto the ranch and step out of his car. I thought these grizzly bear shifters were big… this guy is huge.

  Cash tells me the Sheriff is a polar bear shifter as he and Damon cuff the four lions shifters and stuff them into their two police cars.

  “What do we do with this guy?” Cash asks when all four of the bears are talking in a circle.

  “What guy?” the Sheriff asks.

  Cash points to the lion. “That guy.”

  “I don’t see a guy,” the Sheriff says. He looks at his deputy. “Damon, do you see a guy?”

  Damon shrugs. “Nope.”

  “But if there was a guy,” the Sheriff says as he begins to walk away. “I would take him deep into the mountains and bury him very far down.”

  Cash nods. “Good thing there’s no guy.”

  The Sheriff tips his hat before he climbs back into his car. “Good thing.”

  Damon and the Sheriff leave and it’s only me, Cash and Everett left.

  Everett is cursing as he looks at the numerous cuts all over his body. “Fucking cats,” he growls as he looks at a long gash on his bicep. “They fucked up my tattoos.”

  “I’m sorry, Everett,” I say as I feel tears come to my eyes.

  He shrugs. “That’s what we do. I’m going to go binge-watch a season of Breaking Bad while I heal. I’ll see you tomorrow.”

  I watch in shock as he limps to his cabin, leaving a trail of blood behind him.

  “Should we bring him to the hospital?”

  Cash laughs. “Shifters have no need for hospitals. He’ll be as good as new in the morning.”

  “And what about you?” I ask with a wince when I see the deep gash running along his ribs. I’m aching all over knowing that I caused him this pain.

  But for some reason, he’s smiling.

  “Why are you smiling?” I ask as I look at him in shock.

  “I finally got to protect my mate,” he says, looking thrilled. “That’s what I was born to do.”

  I stand on my toes and he leans down and gives me a deep kiss that has my pussy aching. I’m wondering how fast his shifter healing takes to work because I want to go back in his bed for some more fun as quickly as possible.

  Watching him fight for me is one hell of a turn on.

  “Is there anything I can do for you?” I ask when he pulls away.

  “Yeah,” he says as he walks over to the dead lion on the ground. “You can have a cold beer ready for when I get back.”

  My mouth drops as I watch him pick up Killian’s lion and throw it over his shoulder. Cash is buck naked, looking like Hercules after fighting the Nemean lion.

  I watch in shock as he walks over to the side of his cabin and grabs the shovel laying against it.

  I’m still trying to process what I’m seeing as my mate casually walks toward the mountains in the distance.

  I may belong in Montana and I may have mountain blood, but I’m still not totally used to this shifter way of life.

  With a grin and a shrug, I go inside and get my mate’s beer ready.

  He’ll be back soon and I’ll be in his arms.

  Now that I can get used to.

  Chapter Ten

  Cash

  A few weeks later…

  Seeing how thrilled Zoe is as she wanders around the empty building makes me so happy that I feel like my heart might burst.

  Life doesn’t get better than this.

  “So?” I ask when she walks into the last room. She’s staring up at the vaulted ceiling with a look of awe on her face. “What do you think?”

  “It’s perfect.”

  I smile as I walk over to her. “Ready to sign the lease?”

  She bites her lip as her eyes fill with excitement. “Yes!”

  After we took care of Killian, Zoe was able to meet up with the notary and take ownership of her father’s ranch. She sold it immediately and is using the profits to open up the birthing center that she’s always dreamed of opening. The only difference is that this one will be in town instead of in Seattle where she had originally planned. I think she’s going to be really busy with the way the shifters in town like to breed their women.

  Killian’s four thugs got out of jail a few days later and the look on their faces when we went over and told them that they had to leave was priceless.

  I don’t know where they went and I don’t care as long as they don’t come back.

  “Am I really doing this?” Zoe asks as her eyes widen in panic.

  I walk over to her and take her hand. Her eyes lose that frantic look with my comforting touch.

  “You can do anything, sweet cheeks.”

  “You think?”

  “I know.”

  She takes a deep breath and the smile on her face is just perfect.

  “Then, let’s do it!”

  She tells the leasing agent that she wants to sign the papers and the woman suddenly looks as excited as Zoe.

  “I’ll go to my office and draft them up,” she says as she rushes out the door.

  “Take your time,” I say as I close the door behind her. I grin as I slide the lock in place with a click. “We have to break in the building first.”

  Zoe is already blushing when I turn around.

  “We can’t…” she says with a lick of her lips.

  “This is going to be a birthing center,” I say as I walk over with my cock hardening. “What better way to break it in than by creating a baby?”

  She starts breathing a little heavier and I can smell the beautifu
l scent of her arousal filling the air.

  “I guess that makes sense,” she says with a grin.

  She’s wearing a skirt and a white blouse that looks fucking phenomenal on her.

  My hands go right to her hips and we start kissing as I pull her skirt up.

  I’m expecting to feel wet underwear when I slide my hand underneath, but I groan when I feel her soft naked wetness on my fingers.

  “No panties,” I moan. “Good girl.”

  She’s grinning as she slides her arms over my shoulders. “I thought you might like that.”

  “I do.”

  Her grin turns into a moan when I slide a finger into her tight wet hole.

  We stumble over to the old desk against the wall, kissing and undressing each other along the way.

  “Mmmmm,” I moan as I slide my wet finger into my mouth, tasting her sweetness. She starts to blush when she sees how much I’m enjoying the taste of her honey.

  “Turn around, sweet cheeks,” I growl as my hands slide down to her thick hips.

  She immediately does as I command and turns in my arms. With an excited grin on her face, she bends over the desk and pushes her ass up in the air for me.

  I waste no time yanking her skirt up and slapping her soft round ass. She lets out a little scream as the slap fills the air.

  My girl loves a good spanking from her alpha mate. Just one of the amazing things I’ve learned about her over the past few weeks.

  I grab her ass and spread her cheeks apart, groaning as her puckered pink asshole and dripping wet pussy come into view.

  She’s gasping and looking back with impatience as I pull my hard cock out.

  “You’re going to be the boss here, sweet cheeks, but I’m still going to be the boss of this pussy.” Her sweet body shudders as I drag my cock up her wet slit. I tease her by pressing just the tip of my dick against her wet hole. “You better make damn sure there are locks on your office because I’m going to come charging in here whenever I want to get my dick wet. I’ll bend you over your desk and make you scream louder than the women giving birth.”

  “Oh, Cash,” she moans. My mate loves it when I get all caveman on her, which is easy to do with the scent of her hot pussy making me crazy.

  I push in a little further and I start to see white spots dancing across my vision. She’s still so tight even after all the times I’ve stuffed and stretched out her pussy.

  “That’s the deal, sweet cheeks,” I say as I push in another inch. Her sweet honey oozes out and rushes down my cock, tickling my balls with its warmth. “You can have your business, but I get to come here and ride you whenever I want. Deal?”

  She moans and whines as she pushes her ass back, trying to get me to slide all the way in. “Deal, just fucking put it in!”

  “You didn’t ask nicely,” I say with a grin.

  She slaps the desk and throws her head back in frustration. “Please shove your hard cock inside me. Please.”

  “That’s my girl.” I grit my teeth and thrust in all the way to the hilt. Zoe lets out a cry that echoes off the high ceilings.

  “Fuck, Cash. It’s sooooo good.”

  I hold it inside her for a few seconds longer, enjoying her tight warmth and then when she starts rocking her hips, I start to thrust in and out.

  Her greedy little pussy takes everything I give it.

  Soon, we’re both crying out as we cum at the same time.

  I empty every drop I have inside her and her little cunt milks my cock to get out more. If she wasn’t pregnant before, then she is now…

  Zoe is breathing hard as she lies on the desk and looks up at the vaulted ceiling. I’m too busy looking at the view of her red pussy down here to admire the craftsmanship up there.

  “I think this place is going to work great,” she says.

  I raise an eyebrow as I drag my eyes up to her face. “Maybe we should test out another room just to be sure.”

  “Great idea!”

  She jumps up and runs to one of the other rooms, disappearing inside.

  My cock hardens as I follow her in.

  Maybe we should check them all just to be safe.

  Epilogue

  Zoe

  One year later…

  “And?” Cash says as I walk in through the door of our house.

  I laugh when I see the eager look on his face. He looks like an excited puppy dog who just heard the word ‘treat.’

  “Can I get my shoes off first?” I ask with a grin. I love torturing him like this.

  His dark eyes are sparkling as they narrow on me. “I like fucking you with your shoes on.”

  “Here,” I say, handing him the detachable car seat that has our baby girl sleeping inside. “Put Layla to bed and we’ll talk.”

  I have a smile on my face as I watch him gently unbuckle our little girl from the car seat and protectively cradle her to his chest.

  I love watching how gentle he is with her. She looks so tiny in his big arms and I can tell she feels completely and utterly safe. Just how I feel when I’m in his arms.

  Cash carries her into her room and carefully puts her in her crib without waking her up. He’s been an absolute dream—stepping up as a father and as a mate. Sometimes, I’ll wake up in the middle of the night and he’ll be cradling her in the rocking chair while singing softly to her. It’s in those sweet moments that I know I made the right choice in taking a chance on him.

  But once he closes the door to her room, I can tell now is not one of those times where he’s about to be gentle.

  He’s looking at me like I’m a pork chop and it’s dinner time.

  “So?” he asks as he rubs his palms together. “What did the doctor say? Did she give you the go-ahead?”

  I grin, drawing the moment out to torture him a bit. It’s been six weeks since I’ve given birth and that means we haven’t had any sex during that time.

  I’ve been dealing with breastfeeding and healing and lack of sleep and taking care of a newborn so it hasn’t been that hard for me, but for Cash, it’s been pure torture. We’d never gone a day without having sex before, let alone waiting a full six weeks.

  He starts pacing around the living room with a frantic look in his eyes as he waits for me to answer. His dick is rock hard in his pants and I bite my lip and grin when I see it.

  Suddenly, the urge to feel that giant rod sliding inside me comes back with a vengeance. I haven’t been horny in weeks, but now it’s coming rushing back to me with a new found fury.

  “What did the doctor say?” he asks again, but with more impatience in his voice. “You own the place. I hope you got her to say what we want to hear.”

  I laugh as he runs a hand through his hair, looking like he’s about to lose his mind.

  The birthing center is going great so far and it was nice to have our baby in a place I can trust.

  “You’re killing me, sweet cheeks,” he says. “What did the doctor say?”

  “She said… that I’m… all healed up and good to go.”

  He moves in a blur and before I know it, he’s ripping off my clothes. My shirt falls to the floor in shreds and my crazy man tears my jeans clean off. My wet underwear doesn’t stand a chance. It’s in tatters on the floor before I can even register what’s happening.

  I gasp as he yanks my bra down, freeing my big breasts as he pulls his hard cock out.

  He pushes me up against the door, lifts my leg and sinks his big fat cock into my wet pussy with one hard thrust.

  The look of relief on his face brings a smile to my lips, but that smile quickly vanishes when he starts making up for lost time.

  I hold onto his back and dig my nails into his hard muscles as he lets me know how much he loves me and how much he needs me.

  I drop my head against the door as an orgasm comes raging forward, quicker than ever.

  God, I love my life.

  Epilogue

  Zoe

  Fourteen years later…

  I’m floating on
my back in the lake when a furry monster swims over to get me. It’s the youngest of my four children, Ryan, and he’s got a big wiggling fish in his mouth.

  The little grizzly bear is looking at me proudly, showing off his first-ever catch.

  I drop to my feet and stroke my hand through his wet fur, gushing at how big and powerful he is. “You’re such a big bear!” I say as the fish finally stops wiggling in his jaws.

  The water is above the little bear’s head and he’s swimming in circles around me, trying to keep his head above it.

  Cash’s bear lets out a throaty huff and my cute little cub turns away from me and starts swimming back to shore where my mate is teaching our other kids how to fish.

  They’re all in their bear forms and so far they’ve caught us a couple of weeks worth of dinner.

  Cash’s grizzly looks at me for a long moment before turning back to the cubs and I feel my insides swell up with love and affection.

  I love this man so much. The past decade and a half with him have been an absolute dream come true.

  It turns out that I do have mountain blood after all. It’s flowing through my veins and although sometimes I miss Seattle, I know that Montana is my one true home. This is where I’m supposed to be.

  And Cash is the man I’m supposed to be with.

  I laugh as Ryan’s bear stumbles onto the sand, looking exhausted. He drops the fish onto the ground and the thing starts moving again. It flops around on the beach until it gets back in the water and quickly disappears into the lake.

  Poor Ryan stomps on the water in frustration and then lets out the cutest little roar that makes my heart want to explode.

  “It’s okay, baby!” I call out to him. “You’ll catch another!”

  He lowers his head and pouts as he takes his place beside his father to start all over again.

  Sometimes moments like this hit me and I can’t believe my luck. I can’t believe what my life has become. I just stand there, staring in awe at how fortunate I’ve been.
