My mind fluttered away, anxious that D-Day had finally arrived. Aunt Helena didn't make it, and I was sure that I would see her on the mainland.Half in anticipation and half in dread, I prayed that everything would work out smoothlIt wasn't as exciting as a competition usually is, as the girls already knew the winner, but that was the least of my worries. All I wanted was for this to be over so I could live happily ever after with Adonis without anyone interrupting uOn D-Day, we were getting dressed, and the private helicopters were already outside to take us. I felt a little sad to leave this beautiful place, so full of peace and far away from the madness and complexities of lif"What's on your mind, my queen?" Natalia joked behind me and placed a hand on my shoulder. "I need to make sure that your makeup is perfectMy stomach churned, and I grew anxious by the gazes that I would get from people, knowing that there was no way in hell my father wouldn't find out. I didn't know what

Sophia looked over her shoulder and shot Iris a glance from the corner of her eye.She hated her so much that anytime she saw her, her skin would crawl. Sophia didn't think she was capable of hating anyone that badly. Iris was an insignificant pest and would soon be crushed. She was blocking Sophia's path and stealing what belonged to her.The silly girl didn't know what was about to come for her, and Sophia just couldn't contain her excitement at the thought of watching her crumble when the truth came out.Let the show begin!A muscle tic jumped in her cheek, and she felt a flush of warmth spread through her body, making her lightheaded with thoughts of how the fool's lies were about to be exposed.Sophia had always known there was something off about Iris, and now her suspicions were confirmed—she was the Syndicate Alpha's daughter.The deceit made her blood boil, and she vowed to expose Iris for the fraud she truly was.How could she have the audacity, the sheer audacity, to partic

Iris I struggled to open my eyes, but my eyelids felt heavy, and my vision was blurry. When I finally managed to pry them open, the world around me was hazy.Confused, I closed my eyes again, trying to clear the fog from my mind. I opened them a second time, and my vision was clearer, but I realized that something was amiss.I tried to sit up, but a sharp pain shot through my back, making me gasp. I reached around and felt a thick layer of sterile dressing covering my skin.Then the memories of that horrific moment came flooding back: the scorching acid pouring down my back, the pain that seemed never-ending.Damn it, I couldn't believe that this wasn't just some nightmare in my head—it was all too real. My back would never be the same again, all because of some jealous psycho's twisted actions.My heart broke miserably, and I swallowed hard. Whoever was behind this was heartless, and all for what? Adonis, who would never choose them anyway?They had no shame. It was disgusting how l

AdonisI was furious when I discovered that some sick bastard dared to douse Iris's body with acid.It felt like a cruel joke, a sickening slap in the face—and I couldn't wrap my head around something so despicable that could happen to a pure, harmless soul. I blamed myself for letting her leave the safety of my sight. If only she had stayed a little longer, this terrible act could have been prevented.The thought of what she must be going through filled me with rage beyond words.Machines were beeping, and medical staff in scrubs were working quickly to attend to her. My mind was chaotic as I paced around the small clinic."Dammit," I swore, breathless with rage. After they had gotten her out of danger, I was allowed to see her.I gently brushed a hair off her face while the highly skilled medical staff efficiently attended to her wounds."We've identified that the acid used is a mild form, and fortunately, it didn't affect her internal organs. She will recover quickly," one of them

🔞🔞🔞Adonis and I lay side by side on the grass. It had been over twenty minutes since the power outage had enveloped the mansion, and boy, did we love it. We had all the privacy we needed to explore our bodies. I stifled my laughter when Adonis wrenched my skirt up around my ass. He was inordinately pleased with himself at that moment, which only intensified my smile as I pulled his shirt off and kissed him softly on his chest.'Surely you're not thinking about having sex here in the open,' I said playfully into his mouth as he pulled me tighter against his naked body. He smiled as he nipped my jawline softly before kissing me harder.“Who's going to try and stop us, right? There's nowhere else I'd rather be than right here with you.”“And what if someone sees us? What if there are guards patrolling the house? Or if the power comes back on?”Adonis covered my mouth hungrily before pulling out a pack of condoms. 'Well then, I guess we'll have to hurry because I have no desire to le

The girls were fuming with envy toward me, and I noticed how they would frown and sulk whenever I walked into the room.They were unnecessarily rude, talking behind my back and giving me fake smiles, and even those who were nice enough were just putting on an act.Jealousy couldn't be hidden, no matter how hard they tried to mask it. The way the girls were acting toward me was unsettling. Their envy consumed them so much that I worried they might do something to hurt me.I hoped they wouldn't attempt to poison my food.Sitting cross-legged on my bed, I pulled out a classic literature book I had taken from Adonis' study and tried to ignore the subtle insults from the other girls.The trick was to act like I didn’t hear them, but I couldn’t deny that their words stung. It was hard to remain calm.“Let’s be real,” one of the girls, who seemed the most spiteful, spoke up. “Alpha Adonis might have flirted with other girls too. He’s probably testing to see who’s the best before making his c

Alexis I couldn't hold it any longer the moment Valen left the room. Laughter bubbled up from my chest and spilled uncontrollably, doubling over until tears formed at the corners of my eyes. The entire scene had been absolutely priceless, and I didn't think I would forget that image in a while.From the bathroom, I heard the sound of the shower running and Alex muttering to himself. My laughter only increased.“Really?” his voice boomed over the water. “You're still laughing?”I walked into the bathroom, giggling as I leaned against the doorway. The steam fogged the glass, but I saw his silhouette under the spray.“Now come on, honey. That was hilarious. You should have seen yourself.”The water turned off, and moments later, Alex stuck his head out, glaring at me with mock offense and water dripping from his dark hair.“You’re mean. What kind of wife doesn’t help a man out? You could have just told him I was dressing up or to come back later.”“Well, what’s the fun in that?” I said,

AlexisMy arms folded tightly across my chest, and Alex tried to separate them, looking every bit the persistent man he was. He had barged into my room like he owned the place, and now he wouldn't leave without some sugar, no matter how much I tried to shoo him away."Come on, darling. You know you're not supposed to be here," I said, frowning for emphasis. "A groom seeing the bride before the wedding is a disaster waiting to happen. The euphoria and our first night as a married couple will disappear."He groaned dramatically. "Euphoria? Come on, Lex, that's just a stupid superstition. I need you badly. I've been unable to function well, especially after that hot dress you wore earlier. A quick blowjob and I'll bounce."Wagging my eyebrows, I chuckled. "Nope. This house is swamped with people. I'll give you all the blowjob styles you can ever think of after our wedding."He groaned loudly and sat up straighter, clasping his hands like a child begging for candy. "Please, baby just once

Gianna The adrenaline of everything that had happened faded, but the throbbing in my head persisted. Peter stood near the door, fists clenched at his sides like he was auditioning for the role of brooding statue of the year. His fists looked tighter than a miser’s wallet. I was convinced the walls would start apologizing if he glared any harder.“We need to tell Alex and Alexis about the bond,” he said after a moment.My head snapped up. “What? Why would we do that?”“Why wouldn’t we? Didn’t you hear the threats Oscar just made? He’s not bluffing. He’s got money and connections and can make my life a living hell if he wants to. I’m not as rich or influential as he is. I have to protect myself.”I scoffed, taking the matter lightly. “Nothing is going to happen to you. I’ll make sure of that. But Alex and Alexis don’t need to hear about this. Especially not Alexis. Not until after the wedding. They already have enough to deal with, and I won’t add my problems to their plates.”"Why are

GiannaPeter stood with his arms crossed, fixing his gaze on me like he was trying to peel back every layer of my lies. I looked away and sat on the edge of the bed. “You’ve got scratches on your neck. What the hell are you hiding? He assaulted you, didn’t he?”I reflexively lifted a hand to touch my neck, wincing slightly at the raw sting. “He didn’t… well, he did assault me, but he did not penetrate. He was trying, but you came in before anything would happen.”Peter’s fists curled at his sides as he glanced toward Oscar, still unconscious on the floor. “So am I just supposed to sit back and let this slide? Everyone thinks the fool is some golden boy because he’s rich. The whole world will know what kind of scum he is.”A bitter chuckle escaped me as I leaned back against the wall. “You’re jealous of him, aren’t you?”The irritation on Peter’s face was immediate after I said that. “Don’t be silly. I’m not jealous of him,” he snapped. “I just want to ensure you’re not covering his si

GiannaMy body ached as though an invisible force had battered it. Pain throbbed behind my eyes and spread to my temples and neck. I lay curled in the bedroom, covered by my duvet.Although the day outside was alive with drums and chants and laughter, for day four of Alex and Alexis' wedding festivities, I couldn't bring myself to be a part of it. There was no spark of energy. Instead, I was annoyed by the noise. I turned to bury my face in the pillow, squeezing my eyes shut. But the pain ate at me. It was a fever. I could feel the clamminess on my skin and the flush of heat that came in waves. But this wasn't some random illness. It was because of my mate.My bond was turning against me. I experienced this several times when Byron was alive, and my wolf always demanded closeness and touch. But I had always fought it off with alcohol and drowned myself in wine until the world blurred into nothing. Or if I weren't in the mood to drink, I would swallow enough sleeping pills to knock my

Gianna Alone in my room, I stared blankly at the half-drunk glass of water on my nightstand. My earlier outburst on that girl was foolish, and the guilt refused to subside. I had no reason to do that. After all, none of this was the girl's fault. The cake was good, in fact, so good that it made me jealous. Now I felt bad as my mind replayed the scene from the kitchen. Lisa had stood there, trembling and looking so unsure and apologetic. The truth slashed through me like a knife, and I felt sick with myself. She had done nothing wrong. Her only crime was being Peter's girlfriend.“Gosh, I'm so childish,” I muttered. Why was I even projecting my insecurities onto others? I didn't want to think of Peter or my strange, uncontrollable pull towards him. I didn't want to admit that I hated seeing him smiling, talking, and dancing with Lisa. I didn't even want him. I couldn't want him.But you do, the treacherous voice whispered in my mind. You are lying to yourself.I got on my feet and beg

Damien's earnest eyes sought mine and when I remained silent, his irises darkened sending me a private message that I was fucking up.There was nothing bad about his suggestion but it wasn't the best option for me. Part of me found the idea romantic and reasonable, but deep down, I knew I couldn't go through with it.Other than putting my family in danger; I couldn't leave Thor. The thought of staying so far away from him was unbearable. So, even though the idea seemed tempting, I had to find another solution.Frustration played across his face and he leaned forward. "Why are you so against the idea of eloping? It's not like I'm suggesting something terrible.”“First of all, it's a crazy idea for you to consider stealing from your mom. Secondly, running away is like putting a band-aid on a bullet wound."Damien's frustration bubbled over. I could feel his sharp eyes boring into me and I knew he was going to explode soon."You're refusing to elope because of him, right? Because of your

AdoraBrooklyn's angry tone made me unsettled and caused an empty feeling in the pit of my stomach. There was something about her aura that made me want to run and hide.Even if Damien and I decide to be a couple despite the opposition from his mother, nothing in this world could make that woman like me. Some people are destined to hate and hate with no end in sight. It’s just how life works. Brooklyn hated my mere existence on earth. It was so intense that I was scared for my life. She was wealthy, ruthless, and had a vendetta against me, all because of my bond with her son. I wasn't in the mental space to defend myself or confront her and I hoped this wouldn't escalate into a situation that would have a long-term effect.She walked in filling the whole space already with a pasted-on smile and an unnatural stiffness. She had all the money, power, and connections, while I was just an omega, a nobody. Every word I uttered could potentially be twisted against me. I didn't want any tro

AdoraSomeone yelled Thor's name, interrupting our conversation. He excused himself and I stood there dumbfounded. Every word and promise he made to me hit my core with an impact that left me breathless but confused.My heart felt like it would break if I didn't guard it jealously. I was so close to damning all the consequences and turning rogue just to be with him, but I was too cowardly to do so. My lungs were tight for me and I needed to shake off this heaviness that had descended on me like a blanket. Thor hadn't even spoken to me for five minutes yet my orientation about him and the rogues had changed. If truly alpha Carter killed his parents and he was seeking revenge, none of everything that had happened was his fault. But the part I couldn't shake off was his bold declaration that he was in love with me. Unlike Damien, Thor was sure and nobody could stop him. Isn't that what I wanted?I knew that this was more than the desire into my pants and that if his only desire was t

ThorI took a quick shower after training and I couldn't stop whistling under the shower. The fact that my mate was in the cabin made my cock twitch harder than ever. I was excited to see her take off her tank top and shorts while I spoiled her with pleasure.She was a virgin, no doubt, and would be tighter than any fist. So tight it would almost be painful to work my way inside. She'd be unprepared for the painful pleasure and how my erection would fill her and strip away everything but her need. Then when she gets more experienced, I'd thrust into her so hard that the tendons on my neck would stand out in sharp relief. Holy shit!Just the thought of fucking Adora made the need to explode build in me. It was a rising crescendo but I punished myself by ignoring my cock. I wasn't a big fan of stroking myself and preferred the warmth of a woman's wetness, but my little mate wasn't ready, and because I loved her, I was willing to wait. The sound of the shower filled the cabin with wa

AdoraMy cheeks burned in shame and I felt a thickness in my throat after making out with Thor. The dude was so good with his hands that I felt like I was on cloud nine.We only made out but it felt as though he went all the way. Thor was the son of an ass but by the moon goddess, he was skilled at pleasuring me.I wondered how many women he'd made out to unlock such a level of mastery. My jealous heart hungered to possess his body and soulHe was wearing a shit-eating grin and I flipped him the middle finger.“Do you have a weird obsession with touching me? You almost marked me.”“Key word is almost,” he said with a chuckle. “I restrained myself because of the respect I have for you. Next time, I might not be too lenient.”“It's going to rain,” I started to say but before I finished my statement he picked me up bridal style and kissed my temple. “Hey, put me down. This is fucking embarrassing,” I squealed, wrapped my arms around his neck and buried my face into his chest. “Soon, th

DamienLike a ninja hiding from the prying eyes of people, I crouched low with my back pressed flat against the fireplace. The only sound was my quick and shallow breathing. The darkness made me seem even smaller. My hands were clasped tightly around my knees. This reminded me of when I was a boy and would be sent to the naughty corner for eating too much cake or ice cream.The fireplace was large and slightly weathered on the raised wooden patio of the adjacent building that was part of the main house. Out of desperation, I had to make do with what I had. The patio had doors leading into the house, and it also seemed like the last place my mom would look for me, especially so early in the morning. The outdoor clock mounted on the wall ticked loudly, it was six thirty am. The dreaded rejection ceremony was supposed to start at 7: 30. I glanced at the outdoor bar to my right, noting the glasses and the jug of mojito mix. It was where my bastard stepfather, Clinton, spent most of h

Iris“Why did I get so turned on in that cell when you flogged and degraded me?” I asked Adonis, curious about his answer. I rolled over to my back and he chuckled as he ran his fingers gently along my jawline, making goosebumps erupt under his touch. “Because you’re not as innocent as you think. You don't like vanilla sex.”“What's that?“It's when you have sex that involves more of a mutual give and take of pleasure. You don't like that.”“That's not true,” I countered. “I like sex with passion. But I like a little pain.”He looked at me with a broad grin and I flushed with embarrassment. “Don't make this difficult.”“Tell me what you like?” He said, his voice husky as he nuzzled my nose and peppered kisses around my chin.”"I have no idea,” I said truthfully. “You're the more experienced one.”“Power imbalance, that's what it is. You want me to dominate you. You delight in the sexual abandonment that comes with forfeiting control of your body and actions.”I bit my lip and my body

IrisThe sorrow and pain in my heart was overwhelming; I couldn't stop sobbing. Adonis carried me over to his bedroom. Once there, he gently laid me down on the bed and sat down beside me.His hand brushed through my hair as he whispered soothing words in my ear and rubbed my shoulder. I continued to sob and felt utterly powerless to do anything but cryMy aunt used me as a pawn in a sickening game, and there was no getting rid of the feelings of betrayal and resentment. And then there was Natalia. Their betrayal ripped open wounds inside of me . The secrets and lies I had uncovered were like a heavy weight crushing my heart."Please, Iris, take your pills," Adonis begged me. But I shook my head, my eyes welling up with tears. "Take those damn pills away,” I yelled at him. “You don't understand what I went through. All the suffering and pain of being an Omega in an alpha household. I was constantly humiliated by my dad and stepmom who made my life a living hell!” My voice cracked a

IrisMemories burst forth like fireworks in my mind, sharp and explosive. Each recollection came with a stabbing headache, like a dagger twisting in my brain. I winced and squeezed my eyes shut against the pain. But even the agony couldn't dim my joy. I was remembering things! Fragments of my past, long buried, were resurfacing. Faces, names, moments – all flooding back like a dam breaking.Adonis looked at me like he was seeing me for the first time. His mouth fell open in a gape. The way he grew still and serious made me chuckle. “You remember?” Was all he could say and I nodded. “I remember.”He went on his knees and grabbed my hand tightly, his breath hitching slightly. “Oh goddess…You really remember…” “It doesn't take a lot of effort on my part to remember how you locked me up and spanked my ass cheeks”He leaned back on his haunches and grinned widely, showing all his teeth. “Well, if it turns you on, I'm at your service all day. Just say the word.”I wanted to laugh, but

AdonisI stood beside Natalia in the Lycan court to finalize our divorce.We had signed the papers a week ago, and today was the final step. Natalia's parents and Fred were present as well.The elderly judge looked over the papers and then gazed at us with a warm smile. "Adonis and Natalia, you have both agreed to this divorce, is that correct?""Yes, your honor," we replied in unison.His smile grew and he looked thoroughly amused. “ I must say, I've never seen a couple as amiable as you two. Happy divorce, I guess. Your marriage is hereby dissolved. May you both find happiness on your separate paths."“Congratulations to us,” Natalia said to me with a wink. Her parents and Fred applauded, and the judge was so dumbstruck which added more humor to the scene.I was about to walk away with Natalia when she grabbed my arm to stop me.“Oh yes, there's one thing I forgot to mention," she said. “Don’t give up on Iris.”My response was a pinky promise. I stepped out of the court and Fred drew

IrisNatalia burst into my room, bouncing from foot to foot. Her eyes sparkled with excitement. "Okay, girl, let's get you ready for your big night!"Her energy was infectious and I felt a lightness in her chest.She began pulling out dress after dress from a bag and lay them on the bed. They all looked expensive."I think these are a bit too much for a garden date, don't you?" I ventured, eyeing the designer gowns. Natali ignored me, too busy sorting through the dresses and matching shoes and jewelry to each one."Ooh, this silver clutch would go perfectly with this dress!” she exclaimed, holding up a tiny bag that seemed to be made of pure moonbeams. "You're really getting into this, aren't you?" “Mm-hmm.”She continued to coordinate outfits with an intensity that rivaled a military operation, completely absorbed in her mission to make me look "absolutely stunning""Natalia, are you always this invested in your friends' dates?" "Maybe a little.But I just want to see you happy, Iri

AdonisMy smiling was unrestrained and I felt all tension leaving my body and the temporary breathlessness after I pulled away from Iris' lips. It was like my life had snapped back to normal, and all the pain I felt this past month disappeared.Happiness was indeed a powerful emotion. One that was difficult to find when you've spent your whole life being miserable. My eyes were fixated on hers and they were shining brightly. She smiled back at me, and my heart skipped a beat. Her smile lit up her whole face and it made my heart fucking soar."I think I need to learn how to kiss properly. You seem like a pro,” said Iris, grinning.With great difficulty I tore my gaze from hers and grinned, unable to speak properly. "You're doing just fine. I don't mind sloppy kisses, I love you regardless. I love you much more than you can ever imagine.”Her face blushed pink and the grin slipped from my face."Did I say something uncomfortable? I'm sorry, I-”"No! No. Don't apologize.”"Then why did
