Tattered Happiness

A Talon Pack Short Story

Author Note: Tattered Happiness is a Talon Pack shorty story that centers on Gideon and Brie from Tattered Loyalties (Talon Pack Book 1). The Alpha of the Talon Pack needs to relax and only his submissive mate is able to help. In terms of a timeline, the events take place after Wolf Betrayed (Talon Pack Book 4)

Gideon fisted his hands at his sides and tried not to let the fact that his wolf was trying to push at him show. Of course, since it was his mate staring back at him, he figured he wasn’t hiding it as much as he thought.

When she raised a brow at him and gently placed her hand on his chest, he knew he’d failed.

He never could hide anything from Brie.

Then again, he wasn’t sure he should.

“What you are going all big bad wolf about?” Brie asked, laughter in her eyes. The damn woman always seemed to know when he needed a kick in the butt—even if he wasn’t sure himself.

Gideon sighed and rested his forehead on his mate’s. She was so tiny compared to him, but they made it work. This time, she stood on the step coming off their back deck while he had his bare feet on the grass at the bottom of the stairs.

“My wolf needs a run, but I just had one.” Hence why he was barefoot. He’d just gotten back from a solo hunt through their forest beneath their ever-weakening wards. He’d run as hard as he could, trying to beat down the inherent rage and fear running through his veins.

An Alpha could not show fear.

A good Alpha did not show rage.

He’d thrown on the jeans he’d left on the side of the deck, and had stood under the moonlight alone for a full twenty minutes before Brie had come outside.

He’d almost been able to breathe again before he scented her, but as soon as she came near, his wolf slammed into him once more.

It wanted Brie.

He wanted Brie.

And though she was his, his brain wasn’t fully functioning at the moment. He supposed that’s what happened when his mate became pregnant in the middle of a war.

Brie slid her hands up his chest and cupped his face. “You’re taking on too much, you know. Maybe you and I should take some time and just be the two of us, mate to mate, not Alpha and Alpha’s mate.” She kissed his chin, and his wolf nudged at him. “We could use a few hours to play big bad wolf and his submissive.”

He let out a growl, his fingers digging into her hips as he took a deep breath through his nose. Of course, that just made him scent her more, and he had to let out that breath so he could keep from flipping her over and pounding into her like a crazed wolf.

Although they both liked it when he did that, so maybe he shouldn’t be holding back.

“I’m thinking myself into circles, and my brain is going to explode.
