D E L I L A H Azriel was called for an important meeting as soon as we arrived at the pack. Trying to bite down my disappointment, I decided to use the extra time to properly prepare for his 'surprise'. I bit my lips, already feeling embarrassed about what I was about to do. Should I really go through with it? I wanted him. I couldn't deny it anymore. But what if he doesn't want me? What if he was only with me because of what I could offer? Was I making a mistake? I immediately shook my head, clearing out the horrid thoughts. I haven't come this far to back out now. Denying my attraction towards him now was a waste of time and I really hoped he felt the same about me or I would never look at myself the same way again. Thankfully, the house was silent signifying that Carla had gone home. I walked into my closet and began searching for the perfect outfit for tonight. My fingers brushed against various fabrics as I surveyed the lingerie hanging in my closet. My gaze settled on a lacy
D E L I L A HHarsh rays of sunlight hit my face, making me groan. As I slowly opened my eyes, I realized I was alone on the bed. Panic briefly surged through me, wondering where Azriel had gone. But then, I heard the sound of running water coming from the bathroom, and relief washed over me. I sat up, pulling the sheets tighter around my body, and waited for him to return.A few moments later, the bathroom door swung open, and Azriel stepped into the room, clad only in a towel wrapped around his waist. Droplets of water glistened on his sculpted chest, and my breath hitched at the sight. Heat flooded my body, desire coursing through my veins, as I took in his chiseled abs and the trail of water trickling down his abdomen.Azriel's eyes locked onto mine, and a mischievous smirk tugged at his lips. He sauntered towards the bed, his wet hair tousled and his body exuding an irresistible magnetism. The towel clung to his hips, emphasizing his masculinity and causing my heart to race in an
D E L I L A HThe next three months passed by in blur. They were the most perfect three months of my life.My relationship with Azriel had gotten stronger over the months and it was getting harder to hide how I truly felt about him. Things have been going smoothly, except the fact that the pack members' pressure for an heir has gotten worse.Was I a bad person for not wanting to cross that phase, not even six months later? I could tell the whole issue was really getting to Azriel even as much as he tried to hide it. I could tell he wanted to bring it up, but he had always respected my decision.Well, not until tonight.Azriel and I have had sex almost every night for the past three months and not even once has he not used protection. I always made sure he did.A moan slipped out from my lips as Azriel sucked on the sensitive part of my neck. I was already naked and ready for him. I needed him now. No foreplay.I think he got the hint as I dug my nails into his hips, grinding my soaki
D E L I L A HAzriel didn't come back last night. I tossed and turned all night, hoping he would walk through the door and curl up next to me, telling me everything was going to be okay.To reassure me that we were going to be fine. But he never did. I dragged myself from the bed, deciding that I wanted to shower in my room today. With everything that happened last night, I didn't want more things that would remind me and being in his room wasn't going to help. I had moved into his room two months ago, well not completely since my clothes and other essentials were still in my room.After taking my shower, I walked down the stairs, wrapping my hoodie tighter on my body. Winter was going to be here in a few days and the weather was freezing already.Coupled with the fact that I have been getting annoying illnesses these past few days. It was probably a reaction from the cold. I have a love/hate relationship with the cold, well the bad part being that it always made me sick. Although, t
A Z R I E LI was suddenly hit with a feeling of nostalgia as I stood yet again in the waiting room of the hospital, hoping for positive news.Delilah was in there right now, battling to stay alive. The truck had hit Delilah's side of the car, causing more damage.Carla only had slight scratches on her body which was being treated. It's been two hours of rushing Delilah into the hospital and not even one doctor is here to ease my worries. “She's going to be fine, Azriel. Delilah is a strong woman if you haven't noticed.” Sienna said, squeezing my shoulders comfortingly.I rubbed a hand over my face in frustration. “Goddess, I hope so. I truly hope so. I don't know what I will do if I ever lose her.” I said, resting my head on my hands.“You love her, don't you?” Sienna said, making me turn to her, her eyes were filled with tears as she smiled.Did I love Delilah? Was this really how love feels? Because I never wanted it to end. I think I fell in love with her from the moment her inno
A Z R I E LI nodded my head composedly, despite the storm brewing in my head. “Does she know?”“I haven't told her about the pregnancy. I thought it was best to inform you first then you could break the news to her.”“Thank you, Doctor Roland.” I said, nodding my head.“It's always a pleasure to work with you, Mr. Marino. I've heard so many good things about you and the success of your company.” He said with a broad smile. Now wasn't the time, man… I thought dejectedly.When he didn't get a response, his smile dimmed a little as he stuttered, “I'll leave you to it, I have to get back to work. Congratulations again, Mr. Marino.” He said, finally walking out.I stared at the door that led to Delilah's room, my mind reeling with a million thoughts. “Shit, what am I going to do?”“I definitely wasn't expecting that,” Sienna breathed out from behind me. “I'm finally going to be an aunty.” Her last sentence drew my attention as I looked at her like she was crazy.“Really? That's all you ca
A Z R I E LMy heart felt tight as I felt like everything was finally falling into place. Because it was. I looked at Delilah, my expression conveying how I felt. I placed my hand over the one of her belly, already hearing the tiny heartbeat of our little one. “I'm never going anywhere, detka. I promise to be with you every step of the way and hold your hands as we go through this new phase. You have no idea how happy you just made me.” I said, sincerity dripping in my words.Delilah sniffed, tears blurring her eyes as she squeezed my hands. “You make me happy, Azriel. I never realized how sad and boring my life really was until you came into the picture. Though, we didn't meet on good circumstances, you and this baby are the best thing to ever happen to me. I can't think of a future without you in it. I love you, Azriel.”Those words. Those were the words I've been waiting for her to say. Those three forbidden yet powerful words. I know I had heard her confess to them last night duri
A Z R I E LAs soon as the car parked in front of the station, I and the guys immediately made our way inside. The police looked shocked to see us as they looked between each other. Of course, they were humans and they only knew me as the CEO of Marino construction company, but that was also enough to instill fear in them.M-mr. Marino, we weren't expecting you.” One of the officers said with a grin but I couldn't miss the smell of fear radiating off of him. Disgusting.“Where is he?” I seethed impatiently.“Who?” The officer asked, further infuriating me. I reached out and grabbed him by the collar, slamming him to the wall as he stared at me with horror filled eyes. “Don't fucking play dumb with me or I'm going to make you lose your fucking job and make sure you remain jobless for the rest of your miserable life. Don't fucking test me. Where. is. he?”His lips trembled as he tried to fight for air, his eyes darting between the guys and I. “He– he has been granted bail. He left not
