I stared at Miall, surprised at what he just said to me. What was going on? He seemed flushed, and his eyes seemed crazy with desire and hunger."What?" I whispered, and he smirked, pressing his lips on my neck, hiking my dress up as he pulled my leg up to his waist. This man was freaky; I liked it!"Touch your mate, Amanah," he groaned as he pressed himself against me, inducing a gasp from me."What's going on with you today?" I asked again, pulling his head away from my neck; his eyes glowed as he stared at me in desperation."I'm in heat," he whispered as he took my hand from his face and pressed it against his chest; out of embarrassment, I turned my head away, not able to look at him.Oh."Isn't that a thing for just women?" I asked, still not looking at him. My hand slid down his chest, feeling his hard, chiselled muscles under the pads of my fingers.FINALLY! I was going to get laid."I'm a Lycan, so it's not just a woman thing," he breathed out as he lifted my leg and pressed h
"Are you sure you're okay?" Miall asked again, holding my face in his hands, and I nodded. "Yes, it was just a little dream scare," I muttered, pulling his hands off my face. "What I'm not okay with is how you slept still inside me," I said as I tied my hair. He smiled sheepishly and ran his fingers through his hair while sliding his other hand underneath his shirt."Are we still talking about that?""Well, you're still talking about how I woke up," I shrugged, and he pointed to the bruise on his chest. "Fair point.""But seriously, what were you dreaming of when your elbow had to meet my beautifully crafted chest aggressively?" I rolled my eyes and pretended to gag."Has anyone ever told you how arrogant you are?""No, just you," his smile was proud. "That's why you're my mate," he clasped his hands together. I'm getting married to a psychopath. "Do I still have a chance to run away?" I joked, and he gave me an incredulous gasp. "You must be out of your mind if you thought you eve
"Why is it so hot?" I groaned, pulling off my shirt. Miall looked up and grinned as he propped his head on his hand."Because of you," he said, and I looked at him out of the corner of my eye. "I forgot to open the windows during the day," he said, sitting up. "Sorry.""Mhh," I hummed as I sat down on the bed, grabbing the lotion."What is that?" He asked, leaning closer to me."What?""Those things on your nails?" He pointed to my hands, and I smiled, raising my hands and flexing my fingers."Oh, I got my nails done as well today. Now I have claws as you do," I smiled brightly. "But mine are artistically done.""Why would you want to have claws?" He looked confused, and I struggled with which adjective I associated with him now. Cute, or idiot?"Because these nails make my fingers look good," I smiled, and he stared at them before smiling."Then let's test them," he grinned almost insanely."How?""On my back," he sat up, and it was hard to ignore the tent in his shorts when it was po
"Amanah! We're going to be late if you take longer!" Miall shouted from downstairs, and I groaned, fixing my hair. "They're going there for us anyway. So how can we be late!" I shouted back as I exited the bathroom and made my way downstairs. "Because they have other things to do, and there's a program," he spoke softly as he bobbed Kye around in his arms. "Everyone wants to know the baby's gender; could they really do it with us? And besides, why would anyone accept an invitation if they don't plan on being there the whole day?"I reasoned as I stood in front of him. "Don't you agree?" I asked, taking his silence as an agreement. I focused on Kye, dressed in a cute white milk dungaree. "Ooh, you look so handsome!" I squealed, pressing a kiss on his cheeks."Uh-hmm, do we need to go to this party? Can't they tell us later what the gender of the baby is? Better yet, we can find out when you give birth. Let's just stay here," Miall rushed out, and I stared up at him, confused. "What?
Miall pulled my face closer to his and sucked my bottom lip catching me by surprise. I gasped and giggled, thinking this would be an innocent kiss just to get rid of the gooey sticky centre. However, Miall had other plans. Miall licked my bottom lip softly, grazing my lip with his teeth; once I realised his intentions, I slid my hand between our faces and pushed him away."That's enough," I laughed, and he pressed another kiss on my temple and stared at me in silence for a second before pressing more kisses all over my face. "Thank you," he pressed his lips on my cheek and pressed them on my nose. "Thank you," he repeated the action, and no matter how much I tried to push him away, he wouldn't budge. "I get it, you're thankful!" I laughed."Move," Malakhi said as he pushed between Miall and me. He wrapped his arms around my neck and congratulated me. I could genuinely feel their excitement, which made me feel much better."I'm having a daughter!" He clapped his hands excitedly, and
!TRIGGER WARNING! MENTIONS AND DESCRIPTIONS OF RAPE! PLEASE SKIP IF YOU ARE SENSITIVE TO THIS TOPIC."Hmm, you said what?" I turned to face Miall.He was standing in the kitchen with a bowl filled with cereal in his hands. I was proud to admit that I had influenced his food choice a bit, but sometimes he just exceeded my expectations."We've been summoned to a council meeting; Drystan's the host," he shrugged, and I snarled, looking away."Well, I didn't get an invitation, so I'm not going," I picked up the squishy toy and tried to get Kye's attention with it but he wasn't having it.He drooled over his weight toy that Miall just got him; according to Miall, Kye needed to grow stronger so that he could protect his sister...the kid was only 3 months old."Come on, Amanah. You know what he means," Miall probed as he sat down behind me on the couch.He spread his knees so that I was sitting directly between his thighs, his hand moved down to my throat, and he tilted my head upwards, and I
"I still find it crazy how fast your hair grows," I whispered as I traced my fingers over Miall's beard."I don't like it," he mumbled, and I stuck my finger gently on his bottom lip."I think it's hot," I said as I sat up. "Do you want me to help you shave?""Hmm, I don't think I have the time to shave it off," he said, wrapping his arms around my waist and pressing his head on my lap. "So I'll keep it for some time."I laughed while threading my fingers into his hair. Miall and Orion were similar and different in many ways, but one thing they both loved to do was please me, even with the tiniest things."Won't it irritate you?" I asked softly, and he raised his head."Don't worry about it, it'll be fine," he pecked my cheek and got up. "I have to go somewhere. Will you be okay alone?""At this time of the night?" I questioned, clutching my dress. "Where are you going?""I just have to go check on the borders and see if my guys are doing alright. I'll be back," he pressed his lips on
MiallAmanah stared at me with her arms crossed over her chest. I looked at her from the side of my eye and copied her actions. She had been staring at me since Malakhi left after his big entrance, which I thought was useless, but he had to barge in here and pretend to be concerned when we both knew he didn't really care about what happened. Drystan was dead. Finally.I pouted and sat down on my chair, and she tilted her head, clearly offended that I was choosing not to say anything about Drystan's death. Honestly, I was relieved that whoever killed him helped us immensely, but now I was stuck trying to find a murderer in my pack, so not good. "So you're not going to say anything?" She finally huffed, and I looked up at her and shrugged while gathering my documents. "Spit it out," she scolded, and I raised my eyebrow. "Spit what out?""Stop mumbling and talk! Why are you mad?" "I'm not mad," I shook my head, and she pushed her face forward; I had to bite my lip to stop myself from
Miall"Where are you guys going?" I asked Amanah as she held Amira and Auri's hands.They were dressed in matching pink sun dresses, and Amanah wore a cute hat while the twins rocked pink bow hairpins.My girls are beautiful!"We're going on a girl's date," Amanah said as she smiled. "We're just waiting on Maniah.""Alright, let me get my keys, and we'll go together," I said as I pointed to the kitchen, and the girls voiced their opinions."No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no," Auri shook her head as she waved her small hands."You stay right here," Amari warned as she pointed a finger at me."It's a girl's date, Dad," Maniah said as she passed me; unlike the three, she wore jeans and an oversized hoodie."What are you wearing?" Her mother asked as she took in her attire. "I thought we agreed on wearing sun dresses?""No, the three of you agreed on wearing pink clothes, and I agreed to come along," Maniah shrugged as she raised her book.Amanah pouted and rolled her eyes."Teenagers," s
"Woah, it's really her," I heard as I felt tiny fingers touch my face and giggles.What's going on?"When was the last time we saw her?" Another voice sniffled, and I heard a thud."Stop crying, Kenji," a softer voice said as she hiccupped."What are you all doing here? She's resting," that voice.I knew it all too well.It belonged to the owner of the phone that was in my pocket.Wait a minute, where are my pockets? I touched my sides and felt a soft, silky material covering my body.Waking up, I blinked as I stared at the ceiling."She's up. Shhh," one of them said, a younger male. Two faces that looked alike stared at me with gummy smiles, and I frowned."Why did you guys put Amira and Auri on her bed?" Miall scolded as he walked closer to the bed."They just climbed on their own. They're old enough to do that already," the soft voice said as she took the other baby away from me.Sitting up, I held my head and groaned, feeling a slight ache. Looking around the room, my eyes paused o
I wiped the counter thoughtlessly as I stared ahead. On all the days this bar could be empty, it chose today?Only a few regulars were here and none of them were exciting."You should plaster a smile on that face, Amanah," I stared at Frank with an annoyed look, and he laughed as he flipped the cocktail shaker in the air and caught it with his right hand behind his back, show off."What are you even doing here?""I came to help," I whined as I leaned against the counter and stared at Frank as he worked."You're scaring my customers away; look attractive," he scolded, and I widened my eyes."But I am attractive," I pulled my overalls and stared at him, disappointed. "Anyway, I had this dream, right," I started excitedly, and he put his hand up."Tell me all about it after you serve that customer over there. He only ever comes here whenever you visit," he said, and I raised my eyebrow."So you think it's safe for me to go serve a potential stalker?""Uh, yes. I have bills to pay, Miss Mi
Third Person"What caused you to wake up, Supreme Goddess?" Seifer asked as he stood up from his kneeling position."All the persons I created from my guilt have finally passed on, so that freed me from my prison," Lunaria smiled as she answered."Are you really free from your guilt?" Ylil asked as she glared at Lunaria."No," Lunaria answered simply. "Are you free from your guilt, Ylil?" She asked as she stared into her eyes."I have none," Ylil bit out, and Lunaria nodded as she looked around her temple."That is sad," she whispered.Her eyes landed on Miall, who was still having a hard time breathing. He pressed his head on the ground, writhing in pain."You're the one that's sad!" Ylil shouted, and all the other gods gave her a warning look.Even though they didn't agree with Lunaria's decisions, they still were obligated to protect her."I know," Lunaria said as she kept her eyes on Miall's form. "What's wrong with them?" She asked as she pointed to Miall. "Why have you sealed Ori
Lunaria POV"Are you just gonna stand by the door?" I asked.The day was so heavy today and I was truly exhausted. I lay on my bed face-front refraining from screaming."It's so crazy how you've become so aware of everything since you became the Supreme Goddess," Orion chuckled as he entered my room."I have eyes everywhere now," I said. "And they're all weeping," I whispered as I got up and faced him."Come on, it's not that bad," he smiled as he sat beside me, and pressed a soft kiss on my shoulder. "You're just under a lot of stress.""I really thought I'd just be a disciple at best, Ylil is most suited for this role," I said as I leaned against him."You've been saying that for three years already, but you were chosen for this role because you have something Ylil doesn't have," he said as he massaged my head."What is it that I have besides being terrible at making decisions? I'm not even a scholar," I grumbled. "That feels really good," I sighed closing my eyes."You're empathetic.
Orion held my hips as we kissed in the dark alleyway, his hands slowly trailing down my thighs to my ass, where he gently squeezed.Lifting me up and pressing against the wall, he grunted as he sucked on my tongue and pressed himself against me.I moaned as his hand rubbed my thigh softly, his teeth bit into my bottom lip, and I pressed my chest against his.Pulling away from the kiss, Orion stared at me with drunk eyes, and I believe I gave him just a lust-filled gaze. Without saying anything, he helped me down and held my hand, guiding me through the alleyway.Orion would occasionally squeeze my hand, and I would squeeze his back just to let him know I was okay. I couldn't believe that had happened. Was he mad? Did he like it as much as I did? I want to kiss again.Biting onto my bottom lip, I sighed softly, feeling the pain from his bite. Orion turned around and stared at my lips. Moving in closer, he held my chin and released my bottom lip from between my teeth."Don't do that," he
ℭ𝔢𝔫𝔱𝔲𝔯𝔦𝔢𝔰 𝔄𝔤𝔬"So, how was the exam!?" Ylil asked me as she wrapped her arm around my shoulder and exited the examination centre."Argh, don't even ask me about it! At this rate, I won't even make it to being a disciple," I groaned as I wrapped my arm around her waist."That bad, huh?" She whispered as she held me tighter."Seriously bad," I whispered, feeling the tears form."I probably will just be a normal human by next month," I gulped as I roughly wiped my tears."Aria," she said softly."Enough about me, how was the exam for you!?""Hmm, it was okay," she nodded and I knew she was saying it was okay so that I wouldn't have to feel alone."It was super easy, wasn't it?" I asked her, smiling, and she clenched her teeth."Yeah, sorry," she whispered, and I laughed, shaking my head."You don't have to be sorry that I was born a bit dumber than you," I joked, and she stopped walking, looking furious. She hated it when I would be negative or mean to myself."A bit challenged
Third Person"What just happened?" Evander whispered as he stared at the broken window where Orion stood. "Where's Amanah?"Looking at Ylil, she had an unreadable expression as she held Auri in her arms, and Miall stared out the broken window blankly.Evander ran downstairs.Reaching where she had fallen, his steps slowed as he looked around the courtyard."What the?" He panicked as he looked for her. "Where is she?" He looked up at the third floor, wondering if he had been deceived."Hmm?" Ylil groaned as she looked at the spot where Amanah's lifeless body was supposed to be."Where is she?" She gritted as she stared at Evander."I should be asking you! I knew you were a sketchy bitch the moment you showed up," Evander roared, pointing his finger at Ylil. "And you!"He turned to face Miall.Evander felt rage coursing through his veins; his heart broke for Amanah. He knew what it was like to be killed by someone you loved."How could you do that to her?" He asked as he approached him.
I stared at the huge statue that Evander had fished from the water. It looked exactly like the one I saw in my dream when drowning in the ocean."So, nothing?" Evander asked as he put his hands on his hips, waiting expectedly.I slowly shook my head and gave him an apologetic look."No, I can't sense anything. It's just stone," I shrugged, and he sighed as he dropped his head."Just stone?" He squeaked out as he kicked a rock on the ground. "She's just stone!""Maybe it needs sacrifice?" I tried, and he looked at me, amused but mostly annoyed."What kind of crappy neighbourhood did you grow up in? Sacrifice? No, her stone body won't crack because her soul isn't here anymore," he said as he pointed between me and the stone."Well, where is her soul?" I asked, amused at how stressed he was about all of this."It was in you. It's probably buried deep somewhere in all that anguish you keep to yourself.""Anguish?" I asked, smiling. "I'm happy," I shrugged, and he groaned as he rolled his e
