“Not really a trap. You’re allowed to try to survive. And you got to mate me. That’s the deal. You get a mate, and the mountains get their sacrifices. The conditions of the deal have been met.”
She’s very practical about the situation. Cold, even.
“So we’re sacrifices.”
“Why would an alpha give his daughters away to anyone brave enough to come to the mountains?” She tilts her head, looking at me as if the question should be fairly obvious.
“Those things need to be fed?”
“The mountains need their blood,” Tabby replies, matter of fact. The wind whips up slightly, and red curls play over and around her face. She is much more than a wolf mate. She is part of this vicious landscape. She understands the heart of the evils that walk these places. And that is why she is not afraid of things that strike terror deep into the heart of a seasoned warrior.

This is perfect. I have to work hard to school my features into a sort of concerned mask. I knew that I would find something special in these ranges. I had no idea I would find anything this unique and exciting.
“Can you teach us any means of defense?” The question is reasonable and will not arouse suspicion.
Tabby looks at me with clear green eyes.
“No,” she says. “The gift has to be inside you, and you need to practice the writings and understand the essences of the magic. It’s not just a matter of saying some words or flicking your fingers around in any particular way.”
“We’ll have to watch you then,” I say. “We’ll have to keep you close.”
“Yes,” she says. “You will. The night will be full of dead things. You three are going to call to them.”
Sure enough, two more dead things come scuttling out of the shadows. They reach the perimeter of the fire and stop, screaming and throwing themselves against an unseen wall. One has no arms, but a maw full of viciously long needle-sharp teeth that do not reflect any kind of humanity. The other has one leg and five arms, black eyes and a mouth that is nothing but a hungry hole. Skulls are bare beneath rotted flesh, indicating some kind of erstwhile humanity, but if they were ever people, they have been forever changed.
“What’s keeping them back?” I ask.
“Sigils,” she says. “Symbols of power they are bound to respect. When daylight comes, they will all be burned away.”
“So these things are not as much of a threat as they might seem?”
“Step outside the sigils and see what happens to you,” she replies with a smirking little grin. “They’re exactly as much of a threat as they seem to be.” She reaches a hand toward the fire, gathers a ball of it toward her, and flashes it back at the things. One, two direct hits and they both burn before our eyes.
“At least you made a fire,” she says.
Krall grunts.
“If the sigil will keep them out, then there’s no reason not to keep breeding you,” he says.
He’s a brutish old alpha and he is obsessed with mating. This girl is going to be absolutely awash with cum by the time he is done with her.
“My turn, I think,” Thorn says. His voice is less shaky than it was, and there’s a certain determination in his tone.
“Yours?” Tabby looks at him in surprise. “You want me?”
He wants to distract himself with tits and ass and who can blame him. The urge to run back to the womb is strong when the world becomes dangerous. The only way a man can do it is to fuck a female.
Tabby
I thought for sure he would never dare touch me with the shades of the night all around us. He seemed the most scared of them all. Something has shifted, though. He is looking at me and I see real need in his eyes, a hunger that demands satisfaction.
He reaches out and draws me toward him with much more confidence than I would have credited him with, and he nuzzles my face with his lips.
“Let me fuck you,” Thorn murmurs. “Let me take your sore pussy.”
I find myself giving into him, allowing this sweet seduction to happen. It’s only fair that he should get to enjoy me given the others have both had me. He lays me down on the ground beside the fire, and when he slides his cock inside me, I let out a soft whimper.
“You feel so good,” he murmurs in my ear. “You are such a good girl. You feel so good wrapped around my cock.”
“The lad has some game,” one of the elder two says. I do not know who. I do not care who. Thorn has my face cupped in his hands, locking my attention to him.
Horrors writhe outside the barriers of the fire while the young alpha makes passionate and slightly sadistic love to me. His teeth rake down my neck, not biting, but showing me his potential to snap. He lets go of my face and instead grips my hips to ensure that they stay still.
