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
RYAN'S POVFor the first time in a long while, I woke up with the thought of someone in my head. Rosa.It's been two days since our misunderstanding, and I haven't seen her. 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
ROSA'S POV "The Alpha left for the palace this morning. He asked me to see you out of his study as soon as you wake." She repeated, making a thousand and one thoughts swirl around my mind at once."I see." I whispered, pushing aside the duvet that covered my body, and standing to my feet. She had not seen it coming, when I lifted my hand and landed a clean slap across her cheek. Her eyes went wide in shock, as I inched closer to her. I guess she had been taking me for a fool, all the while. I had been too calm for so long, and that was going to end today."When my mate gives an instruction, don't you dare turn it around." I said, and she visibly swallowed. "Clean up and leave." I ordered, before walking out of the study. I was angry, because I had not done as much as I needed, to completely expel my anger. Another slap would have been great. Just as I walked down the hallway, leading to my chambers, I wondered why Ryan had left without saying goodbye. I remembered he had asked me t
ROSA'S POV Wow.He didn't think we were supposed to be seen around each other? For some reasons, that may have seemed like the best option for Ray, but not for me. Didn't shying away from each other in public, simply meant that I was guilty of what I was being accused of?No, this wasn't one of those stories Audrey normally read, where the characters blow up every chance at being realistic and speaking up for themselves. I have been suppressed and oppressed for way too long, to let anyone shut me up. If Ryan wasn't going to stand up for me, then I would do so for myself.I looked back at Ray, who still lowered his head in some sort of guilt. Why was he acting this way, when we weren't at fault? That annoyed me to no end.Mustering some courage, I stepped closer to Ray and pulled out one of the empty seats beside him. I could swear that the entire table screamed through their deep stares. Wonderful. 'What are you doing?', Ray's voice filtered through my mindlink, but I paid him no he
RYAN'S POV I took small bites out of my breakfast, half worried and disturbed about..... her. Was my silence towards her not the best option? She had left the table yesterday, in anger. After all she had said before leaving, I was finally convinced that she didn't do anything with Ray. But then, that didn't automatically answer any of my unanswered questions. What had they been up to?She had even sat beside him yesterday, not caring a single bit as to how I felt about that. I knew something was up between them, even if it wasn't sexual. And it pricked my heart to know that Ray was in on something that I wasn't. I was her mate!We were currently halfway through breakfast, but she was yet to show up. Was she okay? Was she still asleep? Ralia wasn't here as well, and that meant they were probably together. At least, she had Ralia by her side, and I couldn't be more thankful. I hated how much I cared, even when I tried not to. I had been so busy, chasing a certain lead all night, just
THIRD PERSON'S POV.~~~~~~~~~"I'm tired Rosaaaa." Lily drawled, looking quite exhausted. "I think we should return to your chambers, ma." Lily's personal maid; Rayna, chipped in."Yeah" Rosa nodded in agreement."Let's go." Lily made to pull Rosa along, but Rosa slowly shook her head in negation, to Lily's disappointment. "I would really love to take another round of walk through the garden, Lily. I would come see you as soon as I'm done.""Sure?" She pouted like a baby, and Rosa nodded in assurance.Having spent a better part of her day with Lily, tending to her hair, manicure, and pedicure, it was safe to say that they hand bonded greatly. Lily was a very easy going lady, with little or no drama.Rosa watched as she walked away, Rayna following her behind. She wondered when she was going to be heavy with Ryan's child as well.She started a new round through the garden, and hadn't walked up to five minutes, when a cold voice made her halt her steps."Fancy meeting you here, Luna R
RYAN'S POV."So, what you mean to say is...... Aliya was Henry's mate?" She asked, looking very shocked. A lot of things seemed to have come as a shock to us today. When Rosa had told us about her conversation with Amelia, I knew something was up between Guildford and Isabella. It wasn't a coincidence. Plus, Isabella's sudden appearance at his castle, was really suspicious. "Yes." I nodded. "And up until now, he doesn't know she is dead.""How is that even possible?" Audrey asked, her brows scrunching up in lack of comprehension. "They are mates, he is supposed to feel it when she dies.""I think it's different because she was first banished as a member of the honourable supernaturals. She was a Rogue." Rosa explained. That was true."What exactly is the deal with this Guilford man?" Audrey glared at no one in particular."The only thing I have been able to piece together in all these...." Logan paused, making all eyes fall on him. "....is that Guilford...." He paused again, lookin
THIRD PERSON'S POV 9 YEARS AGO.Sonya released a satisfied sigh, as the Kennedy staff was officially placed in her hand. She had done it! She was finally wielding the staff of authority over the Kennedy clan, and her joy knew no bounds.She had just turned 20 a month back, and had carried out the third and final cleansing ritual that made her eligible to be power custodian. Just then, her eyes locked with that of her uncle, and she gave an appreciative nod. He hadn't lied to her that night, 4 years ago. He had given his word that her sister would forfeit the position of power custodian, which she did.She didn't know how her uncle had managed to pull that off, but she was thankful to him. She remembered how heart broken she felt, when her mother had accused her of probably harming Brenda. She ran out to training grounds, where her uncle met her.Initially when he had approached her and began talking about how he had been cheated, and not allowed to be power custodian over her fathe
12 YEARS AGO.THIRD PERSON'S POV."I just don't get it." Sonya mumbled. "Why does everything always have to revolve around her?""Shame on you, Sonya." Elsa glared, her eyes holding worry and tears. "Shame on you, once again. Your sister goes missing before her first cleansing ritual, and this is what you have to say? How much more sadistic could you be?!""I am sadistic?!" Sonya snarled like the rebellious teen that she was. She may have been rebellious, but her kindness wasn't debatable. All through her childhood, she always had to forfeit most things she desired or wanted, for the sake of her elder sister; Brenda. Brenda was the next in line to become power custodian of the Kennedy family, after their father; Angus. For that reason, she was the favoured child, over Sonya. When they were little, their parents provided the better things for Brenda, even down to things as little as toys.All Sonya's life, she knew she had great energy within her. She may have been the younger sister,
ROSA'S POV "I am worried, Ryan." I sighed, putting on my dress."You know that I prefer you nude." He muttered, a naughty smile on his face. For a moment, I paused my movements and a small smile broke onto my face."You have repeatedly told me that for the past couple of days.""I won't tire of saying it, until you truly believe that I adore your body." He grinned, making such a touchy subject very light hearted."I do believe." I sighed, a shy smile on my face. Who would have thought that I'd be smiling while having a conversation about this?He stood up from the bed, walking up to me and pulling me by the waist."Oh, my Rose." He sighed, tucking a stray stand of hair behind my ear. "I miss you already." He whined, suddenly sounding like a baby. "Move away!" I giggled, walking out of his hold, when he pulled me into him again. His hands laid on the slightly protruded pouch on my belly. Yes, I was being to show now. It was still a bit hidden beneath my dresses but soon, it will no l
THIRD PERSON'S POV "What are you even saying?" She asked, glaring daggers at the man who had just revealed the recent plot twist in this game of chess he played. "Now listen to me!" He lashed out against Isabella. "You will lay with the Gamma, and have my pup as his! He will become the Alpha of coldmoon, and my pup will be next!" "This wouldn't work! Ray wouldn't look at me that way." "Who says we need him to look at you in 'that way'?" He mocked. "All he needs to know, is that you're his mate." "Are you going crazy or what?" She was slowly losing it. "Ray isn't my mate!" "And you think I can't make him?" Guilford grinned devilishly, making her eyes slightly go wide. "What are you saying?" This time, her words came out as a whisper. "What I'm saying is.... it takes nothing for me to create a mate bond that has never been there. I did it before, and I can surely do it again." "What?" "Hmm." He nodded proudly. "All you just have to do Isabella, is listen and do
ROSA'S POV It was the wee hours of the morning, and I hadn't slept for as much as 2 hours. Ryan and I stayed up late discussing, and didn't realize it when we both slept off. I wondered why I was awake now, considering how sore my sleep deprived eyes felt. It took a few extra seconds for me to understand why. The feeling was subtle, but wonderful. I had never known what it felt like, to have my nipples suckled. "Ryan." His name dropped out of my lips, and a long breathy sigh followed suite. His lips were expertly sucking my left nipple, while his hand gently rubbed in circular motions against the other nipple. I knew that I was undoubtedly horny because the drowsy feeling was gradually escaping me. My hand reached out for his head, and my fingers swept through his silver mane, lightly pulling on some strands of his hair. I began to pant heavily when he lowered himself down there, and began breathing down my pussy. I knew what he wanted to do, and I wasn't disappointed. He ate me
ROSA'S POVI couldn't believe that those words had tumbled out of his mouth. That he loved.... me.He loved me.I was his purpose and his.... Redemption.I was that important to the only man that had ever meant so much to me. "Please tell me you love me too." Came his words, and I felt my heart constricting in painful happiness. "Hooo...." I released some hot breathe, feeling him readjust his weight above me."Please say something." He added, his eyes begging me.At that point, I knew I was saturated. If proper care wasn't taken, by heart might somewhat combust. "I...." I released another deep sigh, feeling that painful lump in my throat. "I am scared that at this rate, I love you too much for my heart to bear." I finally managed to say, as a couple more strands of tears rolled down my eyes. I had been so cautious about being vulnerable to anyone since after Andrew, but I realized that Ryan had broken down my walls. With him, I could exist wholly. With him, I found peace. "Rosal
RYAN'S POV I watched as she sluggishly stepped out of the bathroom, avoiding my gaze. It would have definitely taken so much emotional and psychological will, to do what she had done, yesterday. But more than anything else, I was glad she had finally stood up for herself.She didn't have to say much, for me to deduce the kind of life she had as a growing child. She was most certainly bullied, humiliated, taunted by others. To make things worse, the very man who was supposed to care for and protect her, only ended up being her worst nightmare. Whenever I replayed that seen from her dream in my head, my blood boiled. Seeing her kill that man, had satisfied me in a way that killing him myself, wouldn't have.Deep down, I knew she had set herself free from a lot of emotional pain and baggage, especially after finding out that the same man had locked her powers and killed her mother.Rosa was so strong and my admiration for her had increased, if that was even possible. With how much my h
