As soon as he has me back in the shower, Alpha gently sets me down on the floor to start slowly kissing every inch of my body. I feel like he’s worshipping me. He kisses from my lips to my feet, while I just put my hands on his shoulders and focus on keeping my legs strong so I don't fall to the floor in a puddle of jelly. But it is hard.Once again, just being in contact with him makes me absorb his intense energy, even though he’s not in rut this time. I can feel his damn hunger to possess me and have me completely... and I feel the same. I want out bodies to be glued together so we can stay that way forever, I want Rio to just adjust to the news like a good little boy and accept that I'll be on him forever, like we both want. Alpha has me shaking by the time he's done with his worship and then he spreads my legs to lick and open me up gently, using his fingers to prepare me for his dick. "I'm ready, baby," I insist, because I’m more than ready. I'm actually very close to coming w
I face Laurie once we’re outside. My cousin looks just like he always does, he's wearing baggy clothes and his hair is just as long and messy on his head as ever. He's still that goofy guy I grown up with. Except now I hate him. "I didn't come here to kill her. That's not going to happen anymore, she's my friend, okay? She isn't a threat to anyone, especially not us," I explain, forcing myself to sound stern, "I'm just showing her around the clan. She wants to see everything in case she has to die.”"Of course she does, genius. And you're just giving her more and more information so she can screw us even harder when she convinces you to let her go back to her human world, right?" he asks, looking at me like I'm stupid, “Have you paid no attention to important matters? You can never trust a human.”"I don’t trust anyone except for her. She would never do anything against us," I assure, but Laurie just shakes his head like he doesn't believe me or like he doesn't care what I'm saying,
"So, how have things been between you two?" Rio asks casually, putting his arm around my shoulders to hug me again, as he has been doing all day. Kingsley gives us a curious look, "Do you guys still fight all the time like I remember?”"I wish. We're so busy lately we don't even have time to fight anymore,” he says with a pout and drops his body to the left to fully lay on the couch. God, this guy. His every move is so graceful. I don't know if I want to punch him or be him. Probably the latter.We politely chat with King for a while until his phone rings with a call and Rio takes advantage of that to start moving our stuff into a room. It's much smaller than our room at the hotel, but it's okay. The bed is big, there's furniture and it's perfectly decorated like the rest of the apartment, as if they hired a professional to do it. I plop down on the bed while Rio starts taking out his things to put them in the closet or on the dresser. When he's done with his stuff he proceeds with
{ Rio }"Hey Luna, Luna," I say, moving her body from side to side until she groans and starts to wake up, "Hey, don't get up. I just want to tell you that I'm going to go talk to my grandfather, okay? I have to leave you here alone but I'll be back soon. You'll be alone for a while, make yourself at home.""Mhhm," she replies, half asleep still. Her short hair is sticking up all over the place, "Come back soon.""I will," I promise and for some reason I bend down to kiss her before I leave. Just on her cheek, even though everything inside me was suddenly screaming at me to kiss her lips and finally taste her. I must be half asleep too, still dreaming about shit I shouldn’t be fucking dreaming about. I swallow and shake my head to get rid of those thoughts as I stand up, taking one last look at Lunanci, who settles again to keep sleeping, now with a smile on her face and looking completely happy. I like that. I raise a hand to my chest because it suddenly feels tight and take a deep
"God, shut up. I'm not going to kill you yet," Laurent says and rolls his eyes as if my fear is annoying to him, but that still manages to calm me down a bit, "I'm going to do something else first… I'm going to tell you the secret Rio wants to know so badly.”I lower my hands from my face slowly and just blink in confusion. Laurie is suddenly smiling like this is something evil and I’m sure it is, knowing him. Because why would he tell me before telling Rio? "Alex is here, in Tallahide," he starts and my mouth drops open, "He never really lived in the human world, he's been here terrorizing me and pretending to be Rio, taking inhibitors so no one can smell he's an omega. He's been forcing me to keep his secret or else he'll fuck off to another clan to do the same thing over there. So, now you know. Go run and tell Rio. If you are such a good friend, don't keep this secret. Tell him his twin is here and let him ruin everything for Alex. And then, if Alex leaves and puts himself in dan
{ Rio }All of this is weird. It's very weird, isn't it? The whole atmosphere smelled of confrontation and lies... but for some reason Lunanci looked completely happy and Laurie was the one who looked a little... scared? Dazed?I know it doesn't make any sense, but I'm still confused by my sudden blackout. One second I was at the door and the next second I was in the living room with Lunanci in front of me. That damn wolf is completely blocking me out again. And I thought we were getting along better.I try to connect with him and ask him what the hell happened, but he just ignores me. He's here, very awake in my mind, lying there in complete tranquility, simply and very clearly ignoring me.‘Fuck you, Wolf’‘Fuck you more’ he answers. Oh, god. I start pacing back and forth in front of the door considering going out to see what the hell is going on outside, but the door opens before I can do so and Lunanci walks in with a smile, as if nothing happened. "What the hell, Luna? If my c
{ Lunanci }Was I wrong? Should I have kept that as a secret for longer? His sudden face of complete dread makes me think so, but it was my last resort. He was talking about sending me away and I don't want that. I truly don't want to go back to a boring, excitementless life, I'd kill myself in a week anyway. I think I'm just destined for a young death, Rio has to come to terms with that sooner or later. "Rio?" I ask when I start to worry that he's not saying anything, he's been paralyzed for a couple of seconds, not giving me even a hint of what he's feeling. So, I try to touch his arm again to feel what he feels."I need a second," he blurts out immediately when he feels my touch and gets up from the couch, as if he's running away from me, "Don't talk to anyone, I'll be back in a moment."He’s gone before I can answer, nearly knocking the waitress over as he flees to the bathroom with clumsy, heavy steps. Hell, maybe it was a bad idea, but Alpha said Rio is almost ready, didn't h
Once we agree on a time and details to head to Fallonmore tomorrow, Laurent kicks me out of his room to continue making out with King instead of begging for my forgiveness. Douchebag. I take a deep breath while I unwillingly head to my room. I really don’t want to deal with this awkward situation yet, but I also know Lunanci so well that I know right now she's wrapped up in bed to avoid me until I apologize to her for... whatever it is I have to apologize for this time. I’m not even sure at this point, but that means I have a little more time to think. I mentally prepare for a few seconds and walk into the room. Of course, I was completely right. Luna is in bed, turned to the wall throwing ‘apologize to me’ vibes. Despite everything, I can't help but let out a smile. She's cute when she's mad. I close the door behind me and I carefully get into bed. Of course I can tell Luna isn't asleep at all, she's breathing heavily and scoffing every so often. However, now that I’m here with h
"Remember how I said I was going to kill myself if you say no? I wasn't kidding," Alex says, still holding the ring out to me. His eyes are starting to get crazier with each passing second I don't answer."Yes. Yes, I'll fucking marry you," I reply just to stop him from going crazy, but I can't even comprehend this shit. Alex sighs with relief so I grab his arm to pull him up. He takes the ring he bought and lifts my hand to put it on my finger. It’s a gold band. I never thought for even a second that someone could propose to me, "Can I ask what the fuck is going on without you threatening to kill yourself or lying?" "You said yes just so I wouldn't kill myself?" Alex asks with a pout, "You don't really want to marry me?""Yes I do! But I'm still angry and confused," I tell him, not knowing what to do with my hands. Or with him. He looks so much prettier today than the last time I saw him. His hair is a little longer, his cheeks red, his eyes bright. "I saw you on that damn TV show
Rio told me all about how Grandpa helped him with his new business, that damn cookie place he wanted so badly and still hasn't taken me to. Rio told me everything, so I know perfectly well who to go to first. "Hi, Grandpa, good morning.”“Good morning, Alex, what brings you here so damn early?” He asks.“Uhm, well. I know you helped Rio with his cookie place. So... today I come to you with my own business plan. And I dare say, mine is even better," I blurt out as soon as my grandfather comes down to the living room. I'm already sitting on the couch waiting for him in my formal clothes, although I intercepted him on his day off so my grandfather is wearing his pajamas and robe. Grandma comes down the stairs behind him too and looks at me with a smile."Oh, look at you, you look so cute with your little bow tie," she says as she comes over to give me a kiss, "Have you had breakfast yet? I'll make you something, sweetie.""Okay, grandma, thank you," I say and wait for my grandfather to
When I get out of the car and I look up at my house, I suddenly start crying, unable to control it. Lunanci arrives at my side and she holds my hand as the guys walk inside the house to give me space. I'm crying because being here feels good, it feels right. Running away after my presentation because I was angry at the world and at myself was very silly. Before that day I was actually very happy. My life was very good. So, I let one single problem snowball into the biggest shit-show ever. It made me hate my own family because of some dumb harmless comments. It made me hate myself and it made me put on a whole circus that culminated in everyone hating my guts. But at this point, I realize that I should have just eaten one of Rio's cookies and accepted myself as I am. Because there is no other option. I can't change myself and I can't be miserable and bitter forever. So all I can do is, accept my lame ass fate and make the best of it, as Luna told me. "Are you ready?" She asks. I
{ Alejandro }After my wolf cried for hours, dejected and depressed because Zee is going to leave him, I manage to calm him down a little but only when I promise him that we are going to go see his Alpha. What am I going to tell Zee when I see him? I have no fucking idea, but it's the only thing I could think of to make my wolf feel better.So, now I'm heading to Zee's apartment in the middle of the night. I guess maybe I'll say goodbye... and thenmaybe my wolf can convince him to stay here. If Zion really loves me like he said, he'll stay. And he’ll give me a chance to make things right with him. That’s all I need, a little chance. I get to the restaurant and fortunately, it's open, so I go upstairs and I knock on the door. No answer. When almost fifteen minutes go by and no one answers the door, I start to worry. It's only three in the morning, the party should still be on, right? Usually around four or five is when people start leaving. But I guess they left early this time.
I don't know how much time has passed, how many days have passed since I got dumped by everyone, but my mind doesn't leave me alone for a single second. And it’s not even my wolf, it’s all myself.I don't have to take inhibitors anymore because there is no reason to, but I keep doing it mostly because I like the silence but also because I want to protect my wolf. I know he’d hate the way my life is going right now. My life is still in a dark abyss and I can't get out out there because there is no way out. I have no direction and no one to guide me out of there. I’m all alone and miserable. The only good thing I have in my life at the moment is Lunanci, forcing me to go out with her, to eat with her and she makes me laugh for a while. I feel good while I'm with her, but when she leaves me alone I remember that I have nothing else. Just me, myself and I, and we all hate each-other. Laurent stopped talking to me, just like Rio. They both hate me now. Zee hates me, too. My whole famil
{ Zion }Seeing Alex and Rio side by side confuses me a lot. They’re not identical at all, Rio is totally an alpha. And Alex is totally an omega. A tall one. I don't understand why he's so conflicted about that.Seeing Alex hurt by his brother's horrible words soften my heart, it even helps me push my wolf away and make him forget his jealousy right now because Alex looks so sad all of a sudden. "Why is everything so damn hard for me? I just want to have everything I want, why can't I?" he lets out, in a vulnerable little voice that makes me forget the fact that he is a manipulative liar. He's just a kid and everything is blowing up around him. "Baby..." I say, trying to move closer to him and take him in my arms. "You need to stop," he spits towards me suddenly, walking close to me menacingly with wild, crazy eyes just like his brother's. In that they're totally the same, they're both crazy, "I'm not your baby. I've been telling you I don't want you and I don't want this, why can
{ Alejandro }Rio is here, I just ran into him on my way to the restaurant. And he doesn't look good at all. He looks too thin, too pale, too upset. "Rio," I whisper, unable to believe he's really here. He gives me an angry look, but I ignore it for a second because I look behind Rio and I realize Zee is there. And Lunanci. Fuck, "I-I'll explain.""Don't worry, I don't need explanations," my brother says, laughing in a sinister way, "Your lover boy here wants to call Mom. We should, right? We should have mom come here and find out everything her omega son has been up to.""No," I whisper, unable to even come up with an excuse or anything because this is so sudden, I hadn't planned anything, "Please.""Ow, that's such a soft voice now that you've been fucking caught," Rio spits towards me, sounding completely not like himself. Rio's not like that, he never gets angry and certainly not in such a serious way, "I would love to see you cry when she finds out, but I'll just let you do your
My throat closes up as I watch Rio get into the ring. This could go very badly or maybe not as much, but no matter what, I just don't want to see anyone beat Rio up. It's just not supposed to be like this. Why the hell did I end up with the craziest omega on the continent? "Next up, Rio Taffy and," I pretend to think about it, "Mario Ramirez, come here."Rio snorts and starts shaking his head as soon as he sees Mario approaching. Mario is the smallest, he's even shorter than Rio. Rio should take the easy way out I'm offering him, but of course his ego won't let him. I close my eyes in stress as soon as I see his chest popping out. "I want to fight an Alpha, please," he says. Mario rolls his eyes, he's too used to being looked down on at this point to be phased. He tries to walk away, but I stop him."Sorry, but no. He's the only option," I say as if it makes me very sad to have to break the news to him, but he knows I'm lying. "I want to fight an alpha, Zion, are you going to let
The next day at the academy, I see Rio on the track because we’re having another endurance test. This time he surprises me by running at the same pace as his teammates for two full hours. I'm watching him proudly when a guy named Jerry loses his stride and ends up falling face first to the ground. I silently cheer for his failure because that means Rio won't be punished today. Fifteen minutes later, Rio falls to his knees, completely exhausted. I immediately run to him to get him off the track before he gets hurt, and he slaps my hands as soon as he's stable."I can walk by myself," he growls, and I let him go. I follow his slow pace until we reach the loser's bench and sit down next to Jerry. Now that Rio’s here, I don't look at the track at all because I don't care what's going on there. I just want to see his face. And it's even funnier because he can feel my gaze and he starts to get all nervous under my eyes, so much so that he suddenly can't stand it anymore and gets up."I'm
