Chapter: Chapter 23 : Encounter with the Dark onesSia's POV We lay next to each other. Totally spent from the long night. I feel the blood rushing inside my body with renewed excitement. Never even in my wildest dreams did I ever imagine that I would be in a relationship. Now I have Brian and I am his mate. This is so much more than just being his girlfriend, so much more than being his wife. I am his mate for life and nothing can separate us except death. I run my fingers across his chest. His chest is moving up and down with every breath he takes. He looks so handsome when he is sleeping, so peaceful, like a baby. His mop of black hair spread all around his head. It was a long night and too many things had happened> Of course he needed the rest, God knows I need to rest too but I woke up after what seemed like a short nap. It is still dark outside. There are so many things that I want to ask Brian and so many fears running through my mind right now. Has he done the right thing by choosing me as his mate?

Chapter: Chapter 22 : Consummation of Mate BondBrian's POV Sia smiled at me as she stood in the hallway. She was mine now. I was excited, ecstatic and I couldn't believe I had finally found her. My mate. It was all worth it. I was glad I had stood my ground and not given in to the pressure from my parents to choose Natasha as my mate. I could never be happy with her. She repulsed me, I could not even bear her sight and my parents were constantly badgering me to choose her as my mate for three years. No more. The deed was done now and I had chosen my mate. They had to accept her. I knew that my father would be furious, but it could wait. The rest of the world could wait. It was just us now, just Sia my mate, and me. My wolf wanted to meet her wolf. "Wait for it, take it slow," I told him. He was too eager to see my mate's wolf. But she was delicate and she had only been able to open her mind link to me today after the mate selection. I was not sure if she was ready to turn into a wolf yet, when she was ready I am

Chapter: Chapter 21 : Tree houseSia’s POVI feel a light pain when his teeth sink into my neck. The pain disappears as soon as it appears. The pain is now replaced by a tingling feeling starting at the nape of my neck and extending over my shoulders and chest and flowing all over my body. I feel like I am being surrounded by fairy dust, my body seems to levitate a few inches off the ground. I notice that Brian has his hands under my armpits and he is lifting me up over his. He brings my face close to his face and plants a kiss on my lips. The crowd hoots and cheers loudly and the whole place is resounding with the noise of applause and their cheering. I blush and embrace the feeling. I feel at home and I can't contain my happiness. The feeling sinks in. I hope, I have a family now. I am no longer an orphan. I am not a nobody anymore. I cannot be asked to vacate the place and get out just because I feel like a burden. No one is ever going to tell me that since I am not contributing I need to pack up an

Chapter: Chapter 20 : Cementing the BargainNatasha’s POV I take off my coat and let it drop to the floor. Lachlan stands before me and he is a good one feet taller than me. He is pale and slim, his features are sharp and his pupils are red. He smiles and reveals his sharp canines, he runs his tongue over his teeth as he looks me up and down. I wonder if he is going to bite me. “Are you going to bite me and turn me into one of you?” I ask chewing my lower lip. “Now where would the fun be in that, I will turn you if necessary but I have other plans for you right now. I am bored of playing with my kind. I want you to satiate me, I want to feel your hot body against my cold one. Oooh all the things I am planning to do you, you have no idea what is coming your way my beautiful. I am glad Jasper bought you to me” he says with a sinister smile. My heart skips a beat as fear grips my veins. Oh no! What have I got myse

Chapter: Chapter 19 : The OfferNatasha’s POVI walk behind Jasper into the mansion that’s so huge and gloomy at the same time it looks like it has a life of its own. It has a monstrous door that threatens to swallow me alive. I clutch Jasper’s jacket with my hands and pull it close onto my chest. Even though Jasper tries to come across as an asshole he is a bit of a gentleman. Neither did he try to hurt me or enjoy my humiliation, he even gave me this coat to cover up my modesty from the prying eyes of the men here. So he was going to take me to Lachlan Murdoch the head of these Pisach pack or clan or whatever they call themselves. I hope he is a little patient like Jasper and gives me an audience and hears me out before deciding to rip my throat off. I try to summon the courage that is waning with each step I take inside this mansion. We are stopped by two men who are sporting six-pack abs, covered in only a pair of jeans and leather straps that form an X across their chest. They both ar

Chapter: Chapter 18 : Running AwayNatasha’s POVI head into my room and change into a peach crop top and dark blue jeans. I head outside the room and into the cool night leaving my unfinished mug of hot chocolate on the dining table. I had to make a decision for myself. It hurt me the most that even my mother resigned to fate and asked me to accept the rejection and give up my dream. Maybe I didn’t know my mother too well after all. Growing up I looked up to her as the ideal woman, a fierce warrior and a woman who deserved to be the queen. She had come to terms with being the second-best as the wife of the pack's Beta even though I know that she wanted to be the Luna and after seeing how close the bond was between the Alpha and Beta she had decided not to instigate war and to just let them be. She was happy as the Beta’s wife and the respect it garnered in the pack but somewhere in her heart she always had craved to be Luna and so she had tried to live vicariously through me and see me becom

Chapter: Chapter 27 New JobRaya's POV It was my worst nightmare. I had been in terrible situations before and being forced to do something against my will was nothing new to me. My father making me swear that I would be a virgin was against my wish, Dylan trying to sell my virginity was against my wish, and Dylan trying to sell me to sleep with a man was against my wish too. So when Xander Benson's men are forcing me to go to Rossi and beg him to forgive me was against my wish too, it was worse than anything I had to endure before because now they were hurting the only man I had ever come to love. They were punishing Maxwell Barlow, the only ray of sunshine in my life. Max tried to fight them off, he tried to save me but he was outnumbered. Charles could do nothing either. A seven-foot-tall man hit Max on his head when he started protesting Xander Benson's decision and Max had fallen to the floor. My sweet Max! It crushed my heart to see him in such a terrible situation. I cried and cried but the strong hands

Chapter: Chapter 26 No WeddingMax's POV Shit! We are in deep trouble. I look at Raya and her face is a worried mess. She knows it too. What have I gotten us into? Why the hell did Xander Benson have to get married to Rossi's daughter and why did he have to be a lecherous old man like this? Amelia looks like she wants to kill Raya and me. Xander Benson was her husband and she was his new bride which meant that we were in deep shit. A new married man is like a puppet in the hands of his wife. I knew that he would not hesitate to decapitate me right here if she would ask him to. I had no answer to his question that would satisfy him. "No Xander. Dylan is not dead" I tell him. "Does he look worse than Rossi then?" he thunders on. "No. I was busy trying to rescue Raya and he got away. I don't know where he is" I mumble. This would not have been a big deal if Rossi was not Amelia's father. This would probably be just a story about me rescuing my helpless d

Chapter: Chapter 25 ObjectionRaya's POVMax lets go of my hand. My breath gets stuck in my throat. I can't scream even if I want to. It is a prank. This surely is a practical joke being played on Maxwell by his friends. But no one is laughing and Max is tense. The woman is sitting beside a bald man whose face is hard like it has been carved out of marble."Darling, what are you doing?" he says to the woman who objected."I object Xander. This wedding cannot take place. Our Max cannot get married to this woman who is a cheater. She has brainwashed Max. She will spell nothing but doom to Max and to our family if she is allowed to marry Max" she goes on. By now it is clear that the bald man is Xander Benson. The Mafia Kingpin and the loving way that Xander Benson is holding her hand and her gaze is proof that she is his wife."Amelia my love. What has gotten into you? It is Max, it is our Max that you are talking about. He is no one's puppy. He is my most trusted man along with Ch

Chapter: Chapter 24 : The WeddingRaya’s POV The day is finally here. The day every girl dreams of, my wedding day. I had dreamed about this day from the time I was young like all girls do. While playing with my girlfriends when I was ten and to slumber parties but I had never in my wildest dreams imagined that this day will be coming so soon. Here I was in the most beautiful wedding gown I had ever seen, getting ready to be Maxwell Barlow’s bride. Another sleek silky wedding gown hung in the side of the room ready to be worn for the reception. He has managed to pull it all off in one day. The venue was Maxwell Barlow’s house itself. I glanced outside my third-floor window to see the pergola beautifully decked up with a floral arch. Pink peonies and lilacs formed the floral arch and a lilac-colored carpet had been laid out on the runway for me to walk on. Still, there was a sinking feeling in my stomach, amidst the nerves an

Chapter: Chapter 23 : Bachelor PartyMaxwell’s POV We are back from shopping and I am hungry. Hungry for her my sweet little girl. She rushes to the bedroom with me close behind her heels. When I try to enter her room she stops me with her hand on my chest. “Wait for a while I get ready for you,” she says with a naughty twinkle in her eyes. “Okay” I groan reluctantly. The beast inside me is awake and there is no way it is going to be able to wait. I can feel my hardness pressing against the zipper of my pants and I sigh wondering how long it’ll be. After what seems like eons she taps on the do

I felt comforted too being by his side and sleeping next to him. He was my safe haven, his arms felt like my home.
