RYAN'S POV

I had tried so hard all day, not to lose my composure and feel a strand of her hair. She was just so beautiful. The see green dress she had worn for the treaty, complimented her figure and the colour of her hair so well.

I knew I had been petty towards Ray and Theo, but I didn't feel sorry about it. I knew when a man had his eyes on a woman. Ray and Theo were somehow interested in Rosa.

I had been wrong to listen in on Theo and Rosa's conversation, but I just couldn't help it. As he talked, I had listened to the rhythm of his heartbeat, and it wasn't normal. It wasn't fear or anger.... it was excitement. He was excited to see her and for some reason, that didn't bode well with me.

Oh, what I would have given to hear his thoughts. I guess my suspicions about Theo were solidified, when I heard him tell Rosa that they were both single again. He sound happy and had this glint in his eyes, that did nothing but rile me up. When he said 'again', did that mean they ha

    ROSA'S POV He pulled away from me abruptly, making concern fill me instantly. "What is it?" I muttered, and watched as his brows and forehead furrowed in worry. "Something isn't right. Let's go." He pulled me along with him, making his way back into the hall. It was safe to say that the entire place was chaotic, for reasons we were yet to know. I scanned the environment, hoping to see a familiar face, when one entered my line of sight. She was here too?! "Ralia!" I yelled out, both surprised to see her, and also curious to know the cause of the sudden uproar. I may not have had an idea as to what the issue was, but somehow, I knew that we weren't in danger. "Rosa!" She released a sigh, covering the distance between us and engulfing me in a tight hug. "Ralia, what's happening?" Ryan threw the question at her, not even bothering to exchange pleasantries with his sister. "It's great to see you too." She rolled her eyes dramatically, before turning to me. "Where we

    ROSA'S POV"I'm so glad to know that things are just fine between you both, and I'm much more grateful for the gory details you released." Audrey gave me a wink, grinning mischievously. Today made it 5 days since Audrey's delivery. I had successfully convinced Ryan to let us stay back a while, and I couldn't be happier. Blaze was such a beautiful baby, and I had spent a better part of those 5 days with her. She completed me in a way I just couldn't explain, and what's more? She had my hair color! Actually, a shade darker. Almost a redhead. I couldn't believe it the first time it occured to me that she did.Both Audrey and King Logan neither had ginger/red hair, so it came as a surprise that their pup did. I wondered if it was because she was the Flaming Wolf.Ryan and I were to leave for the coldmoon pack today, and I finally had the courage to tell Audrey everything that had really been going on between he and I. The actual truth.My face had gone red when I narrated how our first t

    RYAN'S POVRosa and I both walked into the council room. This was the first time she would be present for a council meeting. Luna Amelia and the Golden Height council chiefs were coming to our pack today, to get familiarized with our pack, and also discuss future plans together as an amalgamated pack.The council room was already filled up, and the chiefs were clearly waiting for Rosa and I to show up."Welcome back!" I watched in innocent surprise, as Rosa went into Dean's awaiting embrace."Why didn't you come along with the other chiefs?" She pouted like a child, making him release a hearty laughter. This was new. Don't get me wrong. Dean had always been a cheerful man, but there was always this reserved part of him. These days, he just seemed to let it all out.We had returned to our pack two days ago, but it was today he and Rosa were seeing each other since we returned. Speaking of Rosa, it was so funny that after holding my hand in the presence of everyone at the palace, and

    ROSA'S POVI felt myself getting to the peak, as I reflexly dug my fingers into his back. I craved for my release so badly, wanting to have it all already. "Kiss me." I begged shamelessly, and a relaxed smile appeared on his face. Just as he leaned in to kiss me, fog filled the entire place, making my heart nearly jump out of my chest in fear. "What's happening?" I asked in utter confusion, and Ryan turned around immediately. The shock I felt when I saw the company we had, was second to none. What the hell were the witch elders doing here?! While we were in the middle of a rather passionate sex!Ryan quickly pulled out of me and stood up, grabbing his robe that laid on the floor across from us. I, on the other hand, pulled down my gown to cover my lower body, feeling Ryan's cum trail down my thighs as I stood up. Just great!I couldn't possibly feel more humiliated than this. The elders all had blank expressions, like they didn't just walk into something they weren't supposed to."I

She hadn't come down for dinner these past couple of days, and I figured she had her meals taken up to her chambers.Had I been right to walk out when she asked me to? I mean, she asked me to leave! Was I supposed to stay back and try to make her understand why? Did I trust her enough, to let her know all of these things? Moreover, who would be glad to know that she was being attacked by the family of her mate's first mate? Brenda was a chapter of my life that I vowed to never open again, even if everyone had the notion that I killed her unjustly. Even if everyone thought that I was the villain of the story.The only people who knew the actual story, were Ralia, Philip, Beta Allister, king Logan, and his father; Kimg Xavier. I didn't plan on adding an extra person to the list.She claimed that I didn't care, rega

    ROSA'S POV "Luna, the Alpha is back! Little miss Alvira is here." Laura informed, and a wide smile spread across my face. Alvira was finally here with us. Ryan had sojourned to the Golden Height pack yesterday, to pick up Alvira. Apparently, king Logan was setting up an academy for offsprings of high officials in the kingdom. I was supposed to travel together with Ryan, but Lily had put to birth two days back, and I thought it unfair to leave her alone to the care of Philip. I had to stay back and look after her. "I would be down shortly." I replied Laura, who nodded in understanding and left. "He would be on another trip to the palace tomorrow." Lily muttered beside me, lightly burping her pup who had his mouth latched onto her nipple. He was such a beautiful boy, and I couldn't imagine having a more perfect pup. "And he would be back, as usual." I shrugged. Ryan was to take Alvira to the palace tomorrow, and enroll her in the royal academy. "The only problem here, i

    ROSA'S POV Would he also hit me like Andrew used to? It all happened like a trance, and the next thing I knew, I saw myself in blood moon pack again. In the lonely house and deserted area he made us live in. With a big belly and a broken arm. A swollen cheek and a black eye. Feeling the pain of his hard blows against my jaw, and the agony I felt when he kicked my belly. I yelled out in pain as my tummy began to feel like a battle ground, blood rushing out of my inner thighs. "Please stop!" I cried, not realizing I was acting out my thoughts. Slowly, I return to consciousness, having a scary internal debate whether or not Andrew was here. I kept my face hidden behind my arm, waiting to feel the sting of a slap across my arm or back, but I felt nothing. When I finally embraced the truth and realized that Andrew was long gone, it was already late. I had eventually brought down my arm to see Ryan, looking at me in shock and disbelief. He brought his hand closer to my f

    RYAN'S POV I opened my eyes, looking beside me to see her laying so peacefully in my arms. She had her arm over my torso. I leaned in to sniff her hair, a small smile making its way to my face. What was I doing? I was smiling more these days. Way more than was normal for me. What was I even saying? Smiling wasn't something that was normal for me.... that was until she showed up in my life. I looked at the widows to see that it was still early in the morning. The morning light wasn't even fully out yet. For the past two weeks, I was at peace, knowing Rosa and Ray weren't seeing each other anymore. Henry and Martin had confirmed to me that ever since the other day Ray visited her chambers and spent hours with her, he hadn't shown up again. In as much as I still had no idea what went on between she and Ray that day, I chose to sweep it under the rug and trust that she didn't betray me. Moreover, I had decided to start trusting her, and this was part of it. I looked at h

Chaotic.My heart was beating so fast, and couldn't help but let worry overcome me, after watching Audrey draw back her hand in her attempt to take the pendant off Rosa. What exactly was that pendant?"Come forth!!!" Hazel suddenly yelled out from the midst of the MacQuoids, who literally surrounded her. Almost immediately, one of the glasses containing a relic burst open, leading to the ultimate escape of the most feared MacQuoid relic. The ice sword.A lot was happening at once, because the next second, Rosa began shaking furiously. I was caught in between rushing off to wield the ice sword, before any damages were done, or staying back to ensure my mate was safe."Ryan!! Do something!!" Audrey yelled out, fear in her eyes as she made to hold Rosa still. She and Austin had made an attempt to hold Rosa at the same time, and the most shocking scene unfolded.I had never thought she could possess such strength. One minute, they were reaching out for her,

    ROSA'S POV "Are you fine?" Ryan asked me for the hundredth time today."Ryan!" I whisper-yelled. "I am fine. We are in the middle of something here." I reminded him, as he seemed to be easily forgetting that.It was late in the evening already, and we had just finished the first stage of the coronation ceremony. The next stage was the procession of the ice relics, by the Honourable families. It was also a reminder that the MacQuoids had failed to produce a new custodian, and the power as head family may be conferred upon the Kennedys tonight. Quite sad."Are you scared, love?" Ryan suddenly asked, and I frowned slightly. "Why would I be?""Wielding the ice sword." "Oh...." I let out a chuckle, hoping I didn't sound nervous. I was supposed to wield the ice sword and absorb its energy, as Luna of the coldmoon pack soon. I learned Ryan had done that as well, at his own coronation. "Should I be?""It isn't so easy, but I'm sure you'd be able to handle it." He encouraged, gently patti

She patted the shoulder of one of the many maids present in my room with me."Thank you." I muttered. "They did a great job indeed." I said, looking at myself in the mirror."You don't seem fine." Audrey caught on, making me release a low sigh. Who was I kidding? Audrey would always catch on to these things."I'm fine." I gave a small smile, but she shook her head in negation, refusing to believe me."You all, leave at once." She ordered, and the maids all exited my chambers in a file."Laura, you can stay." I called back."No, it's fine Luna. I will....""I said, stay." I cut her off firmly, making her shut the door and walk back to my side.'And you trust her enough?', Audrey's voice filtered through my mindlink. 'I do'."And for the sweet love of the goddess, please don't tell me you and Ryan had another fight." She sighed in frustration."Not at all" I deb

  • A CONTRACT WITH MY HYBRID ALPHA MATE   A PHASE OF HEALING

    RYAN'S POV There was another pup.I still couldn't believe how lucky we were. Deep down, I knew Rosa was going through a lot of pains at the thought of losing our pup. I was only grateful to the goddess that she showed us some mercy.Audrey had been kind enough to handle things in our stead. She had shifted the wedding by a day, giving Rosa ample time to rest. Though Rosa had really insisted on going ahead with the wedding, claiming she felt very okay, we had to convince her otherwise. She was currently asleep in my chambers, while I had stepped out to discuss with Logan. He had mindlinked me, saying we needed to talk. On getting to my study, I was glad to see Logan already seated and awaiting my arrival."Sorry for keeping you waiting." I apologized. "Not at all. I shouldn't even be drawing you away from her at a time like this. How is she?""Sleeping soundly. She seems to be healing up fine, thanks to her healing energy.""Which leaves me wondering....." Logan muttered mindlessl

    ROSA'S POV My hands shook badly and my lips quivered. I debated within myself if this was the right thing to do. The moment he had picked me off the ground and shielded me behind himself, I knew in my heart that he would always protect me. Most importantly, I knew that if I didn't show him the weakest part of myself now, I may probably never have the courage to do so again.Moreover, he had asked the reason why I hadn't fought in my wolf form. I knew this was just the opportunity to let him know why. In that moment, I knew we had company, but the only person I could see was him. Ryan."Come, love. We'll talk inside." He said, but the distance from the garden to our chambers could be enough for me to lose this confidence. Maybe going through this near death experience a few minutes ago, made me realize I could die so cheaply, and the person I loved the most would never have an idea who I really was."No...." I shook my head in refusal, stepping away from him. "L...let me sh..sh...sho

    RYAN'S POV Philip and I had discussed my plight two days back, and all he had said was to give Rosa the space she was asking for. According to him, I would be selfish to want Rosa by my side, without giving her the choice of making that decision to be with me, just like I had made mine.No matter how painful it was to hear that, it was the truth. And I didn't want to be the selfish one in any way. Especially not towards Rosa. She had penetrated my heart and broken down my walls completely in ways I couldn't explain. Something I never thought would happen again. But somehow, she had achieved it."At this rate, you'd burn holes into her skin." Logan whispered beside me, making a smile break out on my face as I pulled out of my thoughts.At the moment we were all seated at the dinning hall, having dinner. Somehow, I had found it difficult to take my eyes off of her, ever since she showed up for dinner. I couldn't tell if it was worry, after seeing her cry to Audrey a couple of hours bac

    ROSA'S POV "I do not like the sound of this child being in danger. Rosa, you have to protect this one." Audrey grabbed my hand, shaking it furiously, as if trying to shake up my brain. "You have lost a lot already, you can't lose this one too." The moment she said that, I instantly felt goosebumps all over my body, my senses going alert. What was going on with me? Just three days ago, I'd rather Ryan cared more about me than this child, even after hearing what Isobel had to say. Now, I couldn't explain the possessive feeling that engulfed me, at the slight mention of losing it. "Audrey..... I love my child." I whispered, and she nodded in understanding. "Of course, you do." "Was I dumb?" I asked, unsure she was going to understand what I meant. "I'm such a bad mother." I began sobbing. "Noooo, Rosa." She shook her head in negation. "You're not! Recently, a lot has happened. It is okay if you feel confused about your feelings, including the ones you have for your pu

    ROSA'S POV Everywhere was noisy. The castle was the busiet it had ever been since I arrived here. It was the eve of my wedding. Preparations had been in full swing for three days now, but I guess today was just something else. It was understandable, seeing as most of our guests were arriving today, against the wedding ceremony tomorrow. I still couldn't believe it was here. Ryan and I were getting married tomorrow, but..... Oh, goddess. I felt lost. So lost. I had taken up Dean's advice to emotionally distance myself from Ryan, and it had been hell. I went through different stages of hurt. Well, the first night was hell for a different reason. That was the night I had discovered Ryan's actual intent on keeping me close. It wasn't really for the sake of a pup. I mean, he had made a request for Isabella to be his breeder, before I showed up. He would have probably rejected me, if I hadn't any other use to him. But after crying for a better part of the night and thinking

Laura informed, taking out a simple long dress from my closet, and laying it on the bed. I had just stepped out of shower after a long day, and all I really wanted to do was sleep.But then again, I wasn't the only one I was supposed to be looking out for now. There was a little one inside me, so I had to go down for dinner.I guess I was also unsure of what to expect. Was that woman still in the castle? Would she join us for dinner tonight?Nonetheless, I dressed up and went down for dinner. The moment I showed up in the hall, all eyes fell on me. "Good evening, all!" I greeted, receiving their greetings in return. I saw her sitting just opposite R
