D E L I L A HI slowly opened my eyes, feeling a dull ache pulsating through my head. As my vision adjusted to the light, I found herself in an unfamiliar hospital room with sterile white walls. The air felt heavy with the scent of antiseptic, and the distant sounds of beeping machines echoed through the sterile environment. Confusion washed over me, and I couldn't help but wonder how I had ended up in a hospital.My memory was foggy, as if a thick veil had been draped over my thoughts. I tried to recall the events leading up to me being in the hospital room, but all I could summon were fragments, like scattered puzzle pieces waiting to be arranged.I lifted a trembling hand to touch my forehead, only to feel a bandage wrapped tightly around my head. A dull throb emanated from beneath it, a reminder of some kind of injury. What had happened? How had I sustained such an injury?It was only them I noticed the mop of black hair on the bed. I could already tell who it was before I even sa
D E L I L A HAfter staying at the hospital for two more days, I was finally discharged from the hospital. It felt nice to finally leave the boring white walls of the hospital and finally get to eat good food.The hospital's food always tasted bland and tasteless. It's been two days since I've seen Azriel and I really wanted it that way. Seeing him would remind me of all I went through because of him. Now he has a crazy ex wanting to kill me just so she could have him all to herself. I still couldn't believe Carmen would stoop so low and plan with her sister to try and kill me.Was her obsession for Azriel so much that she would go to any lengths to get me out of the picture? I never wanted to be in the picture in the first place. Who knows what more she could do after pulling this stunt?The realization suddenly hit me that I could have died. Hell, from how hard I had hit my head on the tree, I doubted I would have survived. I could have died because of him. My grandmother was proba
D E L I L A HI have always known myself to be a coward and today was no different. Because as soon as Azriel stood from between my legs, I ran out of the room like a fucking coward. I immediately shut the door to my room and slid down to the floor, trying to catch my breath. Oh god, what have I done?I was startled by the sudden knock on the door and after that came Azriel's voice. “Delilah, open the door.” He ordered softly, his voice filled with… conflict? “Did I do something wrong? Because I don't understand why you would run off after what just happened.”“Please go away, Azriel.” I said with a small voice. “I'm not going anywhere until you at least give me an explanation. I thought we were getting somewhere…”I cut him off before he could finish that sentence. “That's the problem, Azriel! We are not getting anywhere! We are never getting anywhere, can't you see?” As if my previous words didn't have any effect on him, he spoke. “Open the damn door or I swear I will break it do
D E L I L A H“Okay, I can't keep this in anymore. What's up with you?! You've been smiling like a hormonal teenager who just had her first kiss all morning! Now spill!” Delilah demanded, looking a little too excited. “I didn't know smiling has now become a sin, Sienna.” I said, trying to fight back my smile. “I know you just don't go around smiling for no reason.” She said, rolling her eyes. “Are you going to tell me or do I have to force it out of you?” Her eyes held a mischievous glint and I knew she was up to no good.“Okay, fine.” I grumbled. “It's Azriel.” I finally said.Her eyes widened in shock as she stared at me suspiciously. “Omg, I said it! You guys finally had sex, didn't you? I knew that conversation was definitely going to turn into something more.” Shs said, wiggling her eyebrows suggestively.My eyes widened in horror at her assumptions and my face immediately grew hot. Yes, we didn't have sex but we still did something more. But was I really going to tell his sist
D E L I L A HI looked towards Azriel's office door for the third time tonight. It's been three hours since he went inside there and Sienna had even gone back to the pack house. Yet, Azriel wasn't out.What the hell could he still be doing in there? Gods, I sounded needy. I made myself more comfortable inside the sarm blankets as I continued watching my movie, alone. A few minutes later, the door to the office finally opened, but I didn't move my face from the TV. I could hear their voices as they walked down the stairs, the only light on the living room was from the TV. The living was dimmed so I couldn't really make out their faces.But the sound of the TV and probably my scent would make Azriel realize that I had been stupidly waiting for him. Ughhh.The door shut close as Nolan and Kameron left the house, I heard a click of the lock and footsteps walking towards me. I stared at the TV, refusing to give him a glance.Azriel sat down beside me on the couch and kissed my neck. “Are
A Z R I E LI took a step away from her feeling like my heart was going to rip out from my chest. I couldn't bear that look she was giving me. The look of fear. I frightened her. My own mate was frightened of me. “Lilah…” I said, reaching my hands out to her but a hand stopped me.I turned to send a glare at Nolan as he silently shook his head. “Let her be, bro. You scared her, she needs time to come to terms with this… side of you.” He said, nodding towards the bloodied mess on the floor.I nodded my head stiffly, moving away from her. Nolan walked towards her and whispered something into her ear. She nodded her head shakily, looking at me cautiously before walking up the stairs to her room.How could I have let myself lose control in front of her? She just had to see me in my not so nice state. The image of her horrified state was stuck in my head like glue. “How could you have let her see that, man? She looked like she was going to faint any minute. You seriously need to learn se
A Z R I E LMy expression immediately turned sour as soon as a guard came to inform me that the Pack's elder council requested a meeting with me and we're currently waiting in the meeting room.I definitely did not want to attend that meeting because I knew what it entailed and I wasn't ready for that conversation. Knowing I had no other choice, I left the house and walked to the pack house. I entered the meeting room a few minutes later and was greeted by unpleasant faces.“Alpha Azriel, nice of you to finally join us after we sent an invitation an hour ago.” Luke, one of the old pack members and my father's old friend said with a wicked smirk. I had always hated his guts, more because of his relationship with my father.He was there. Encouraging the bastard to torture his son. In his words 'preparing him for his Alpha duties.' I studied all of them, my face cold and emotionless. I finally turned back to Luke, “One hour is not enough time for me to think if I want to have a meeting
D E L I L A H The sound of the front door slamming close snapped my attention from the TV as I looked at a furious Azriel storming in. He didn't even acknowledge my presence and passed by without a word, and took the stairs two at a time. Without thinking, I ran after him wanting to know what had gotten him so worked up. I opened the door to his room and realized this was my first time entering his room. His room screamed darkness, the curtains were dark and pulled close. His bed frame was golden and a huge king sized bed was in the middle of the room. His room was spacious and screamed all the personalities Azriel possessed. “What are you doing in here?” Azriel's voice spoke behind me, startling me. I turned, coming face to face with him. His eyes didn't hold the usual warmth I was starting to get used to. They were replaced with that cold gaze that I hated seeing in his expression. “I… I came to see if you were okay. You didn't look too good when you came into the house so I t
D E L I L A H NINE MONTHS LATER A low groan slipped passed my lips as I felt pain spread through my belly. I sleepily cradled my stomach, turning to my other side to find a more comfortable position. Fucking Braxton Hicks. The baby was kicking up a storm in my stomach while I was trying to get some damn sleep. Azriel, the usual light sleeper that he was immediately woke up at the sound of my groan. He rubbed his hands on the side of my waist, kissing my neck from behind. “Are you okay, baby?” I hummed, sighing as he wrapped his arms around me. “Yes, it's just the stupid mild contractions. But this one seems more intense.” I said with a wince. “Do you think it's time?” He said, his tone worried. I shook my head, trying to ease down his worries. “The doctor said I have one week left before I go into active labor, remember?” I murmured, still feeling very uncomfortable. “But there's a chance she might be coming earlier than we thought.” Yes, we were having a girl. Azriel had been
D E L I L A H I sat down nervously in the bedroom as I heard Azriel's footstep walking up the stairs. A feeling of deja Vu suddenly hit me, remembering my first pregnancy. It was kind of planned then, but this? I wasn't even sure he was ready to be a father for the second time. What if he decides all of this isn't worth it and demands me to get rid of the child? Or worse, breaks up with me? I didn't think I would be able to survive the heartbreak this time. My heart flew into my throat as the doorknob twisted and a second later, the door opened, revealing Azriel in all his glory. His eyes immediately met mine as soon as he walked into the room, I watched as a smile spread across his face as he walked towards me, lowering himself to capture my lips. I didn't hesitate to return the kiss, enjoying the moment, just in case this was going to be our last kiss. “How are you, my love?” He asked tiredly as we pulled away. My heart tingled at the term of endearment, feeling my lips curve
M E L I S S A I paced back and forth in the room, before stopping to look at her. “Are you sure about this?” She slightly shook her head, wiping her tears. “Well I'm not sure. But there is a possibility that I might be with child. The symptoms are so similar with Kian's. I'm scared, Mel.” My gaze softened and I walked over to her, pulling her into my arms. “It's going to be okay. We aren't exactly sure yet. You're going to have to take a test. Do you have one?” She shook her head no, “I never knew I would have to need one anytime soon. It never crossed my mind.” “Well, considering you guys have sex. Lots of it, I already saw it coming. You guys go at it almost every second of the day.” I joked, trying to lighten up her mood. Delilah scowled, “You're not making me feel better, thanks.” She uttered dryly. I gave her a remorseful look. “I'm sorry, b. C'mon, I think I have two spare pregnancy tests somewhere, do you think you're ready to take it?” She nodded her head, “I have to. I
M E L I S S A ONE MONTH LATER A startled scream ripped out of my lips as the door to my room was suddenly jammed open, while I lay on the bed, stark naked. My eyes widened and I immediately covered myself with the sheets but he had already seen it all. Nolan's mouth was dropped open as he looked at me in shock. Fuck, fuck, fuck. He had seen me masturbating. Of course, he just had to come in when I was trying to get myself off. A deep blush crawled up my cheeks as I covered my face with the duvet, praying the ground would just open up and swallow me up. He didn't speak for a while. Instead, his eyes continued to rake over my body, and he had a hungry look in them. “Nolan, you asshole!” I yelled at him, trying to get him out of his stupor. “Why don't you fucking knock?! You could have given me some warning and I would have locked the door!” He didn't even reply, only continuing to stand at the doorway, as though he was stuck in a trance. “Nolan?!” I screamed. Finally, he blink
D E L I L A H Azriel slid his wet tongue down my back and made his way to my butt cheeks. I bit my lower lip, making a whimper. He pushed his crotch against my thigh, grinding me from behind. I reached out behind me and grabbed his balls and began playing with them. “I'm so fucking hard right now,” he whispered in my ear. I felt a pool of juices between my legs. “Fuck me, Azriel. Stop torturing me already, I've waited so long for this.” I moaned and it almost came out like a groan of frustration. He pulled my hair back, licking, sucking and biting my neck, and I moaned even louder from the sensation. I felt my nipples getting hard and my clit throbbing. His cock was so big and hard, I couldn't wait for it to be inside of me. It has only been a week since he fucked me and it felt like I had been sex starved for years. "Put your hands on my back,” He demanded and I eagerly did as he said. He reached down, feeling the wetness between my legs, and started rubbing my clit. I couldn't h
D E L I L A HThe next morning, I woke up tangled with the people I cherished the most in the whole world. Azriel and I were sleeping on the opposite sides of the bed, while Kian is sandwiched between the both of us, peacefully nestling in our arms. It was a sight I looked forward to everyday.A smile slipped out of my lips as I gazed at the two most important boys in my life. I hadn't realized Kian and Azriel's uncanny resemblance until now. They had the same sleeping position, the same little snores and it was practically as if Azriel's entire face was plastered on his. A mini Azriel. My mini Azriel.I lightly placed my hands on Kian's body, trying to feel his temperature and I breathed out a sigh of relief as his temperature was a lot better than yesterday's.I slowly placed loud kisses on his stomach and nose, watching in amusement as he stirred awake. As soon as his eyes was fully open, he gave me a breathtaking smile revealing his perfect little teeth. “Good morning, Mommy.” He
D E L I L A H It's been two hours since Azriel left after the wedding and ill have to admit that I was a nervous wreck. I clasped my trembling fingers together, trying to wear off my nervousness. “You need to stop worrying, Lilah. I'm sure they'll be back soon.” Melissa said, trying to sound comforting but I wasn't having it. “Stop worrying? How the fuck will I stop worrying when my son and husband are potentially in harm's way? What if something goes terribly wrong and I lose both of them at the same time? I don't think I can calm down until I know they're completely fine, Mel. I just can't.” I said, shaking my head. Melissa sighed, walking to my front. She held my shoulders forcing me to face her. “Look at me, Lilah. You need to stay positive. Thinking like this will bring nothing but fear in you and crippling anxiety.” I tried to take Melissa's words to heart, but my mind was still racing with worry. The thought of something happening to Azriel or our son was unbearable. I took
“WHAT?!” Melissa and Sienna exclaimed ad I broke the news to them. But one had a different expression from the other. While Melissa looked absolutely horrified, Sienna looked elated by the news. “Please tell me you agreed!” Sienna squealed, reminding me of childish her five years ago. She looked too overjoyed about this and I couldn't help but smile. “I did,” I said in a small shy voice and I heard Sienna squeal as she jumped over to me. “Yes!” You have no idea how much I've waited for this moment. To see my brother finally getting married. Not just to anyone, but to the woman of his dreams. I'm so happy for you, Lilah.” She said excitedly and we both turned to Melissa who was pouting. “What's wrong, Mel?” I asked nervously. If she wasn't happy about this then it was going to be a problem. “I always imagined your wedding to be something huge and planned, not rushed. And definitely not now. Let's set all the jokes aside, Lilah. Do you think you're ready for this? To be a wife?” I
D E L I L A H “Fancy meeting you again, Delilah.” I turned around to come face to face with Andrea. I thought she had left with the others, I had insisted on going with them but Azriel pointed out that it wasn't right for me to go out yet. Considering the fact that I didn't know if I would stay here permanently, I think he had a point. “I think you're not really happy about my arrival, Andrea. Your expression already gave it away.” I responded to her. Andrea's attitude hasn't changed one bit, she was still as she was five years ago, if not worse. “What do you want me to do? Jump and be ecstatic about you coming back? After the horrible things you did to my brother? To think I was beginning to like you.” She spat in distaste, glaring at me. “Since when did you start caring about your brother? Last I recall, you absolutely hated his guts and wanted nothing to do with him.” I knew I was being petty but I couldn't help but be defensive. “But you did worse than I'd ever do to him. Yo
