Adonis

My phone was pressed against my ear, and I fought the urge to scream at these council members to leave me the fuck alone. The enormous responsibilities bestowed upon me were more manageable when my father was healthy. But now that he was ill, I became the primary target of all scrutiny from friends and foes.

After making at least the fiftieth call that evening, and I mean this literally, I groaned into my palms and scribbled notes on a pad of paper. After the final call from my father's best friend, Uncle Axton, I let out a deep yawn, my jaw cracking with a satisfying pop.

"Oh hell no," I grumbled, almost tossing my phone aside as it buzzed with a text. But it was from Fred, and my shoulders slumped with relief. When I read the message, I broke out into a wide smile.

"Your little birdie will meet you tonight on the terrace. Break a leg."

I smiled so widely that it hurt. Fred was pleased that I was finally interested in one of the girls, and he had been hinting since yesterday

    IrisI was dumbfounded as I watched the alpha's gaze consume me. My hand was still extended, and he touched my fingers from thumb to index finger and raised them to the light. I felt a surge of electricity and watched his fingers trace the lines on my palm.His touch was gentle and sensual, and his fingers moved slowly and deliberately as if he were memorizing every curve and crease of my palm. What exactly was he doing? This was strange, but in a good way.But he didn't say anything; he just stared at my hand as if it were the most fascinating thing he would ever see.His gaze flickered up to mine, and we locked eyes for a brief moment. My fears subsided as I spent more time with him. I could tell he wanted to ask me something, but he kept stopping himself, and I wondered what was going on in that head of his.He dropped my hand quickly and tucked his hands into his pocket. His gaze avoided mine, and he turned away, saying a curt "goodnight" before quickly walking away, as if he were

    Adonis I stood at the second-floor window, gazing out at the laughter and splashing water below. The girls were naked, skinny-dipping, and having a great time, so I craned my neck to find Iris.She had a soft, inviting look. I wanted to make love to her against this window, with the moonlight shining down on our bodies. I wanted to cup her curvy ass. She had no idea how sexy her butt looked. Her colored hair swirled as she moved. I looked at her as if I were photographing her with my eyes, and something powerful surged through my body. It felt like a tingling in the pit of my stomach; the girl's presence was gradually unlocking my heart and soul, and no matter how hard I tried not to think about her, I could not stop.I felt guilty for gradually moving on from my wife's death and falling for a stranger I barely knew. Isabella would be upset that I was lusting after another woman, I thought ruefully, turning away from the window.My heart ached as memories of Isabella flooded my mind

    IrisI sat next to Natalia in the semi-empty lounge, listening to soft country music in the background. Except for a few girls chatting in the far corner, the room was completely empty.I had spent the entire day debating whether or not to tell Natalia about Adonis. I wasn't supposed to trust anyone, especially with something like this. But Natalia was the only friend I had here, and she could possibly help me figure things out. But a voice inside my head warned me not to tell her, because what if she opened her mouth and revealed the secret? I could not take the risk. I was already in too deep, and who knows whether the alpha genuinely liked me or was drawn to my singing voice?Keeping this secret to myself was not a big deal; I could act as if the alpha and I never interacted and still win the game on merit. But Fred was already friendly with me, and Natalia was attracted to him.This was a tough one.Natalia must have noticed me fidgeting with my hands and looking around the room

    The Alpha's smile made me melt, but a growing fear in the back of my mind that he would ask us to go outside and transform into wolves made me tremble.That was going to be a disaster because he would discover that my wolf was Omega.There was no denying it now: the alpha was romantically interested in me, and if things continued as they were, I was sure I would win the beauty pageant, which was becoming increasingly complicated.He kissed me again, and I allowed it. The warmth of personal contact made it difficult for me to think clearly.Getting close to the alpha was a bad idea, but I could not help myself because I was already too deep.On the other hand, this could work to my advantage. If he keeps our relationship quiet, perhaps my father will never find out. Perhaps I could keep my head down and enjoy the rest of my life without fear of my father coming after me.My head was spinning, and I had no idea what to do."There is something about you," he said, checking me and taking

    Adonis If someone had told me that I would ever feel this way in my life, I would never have believed them. Iris made me feel very peaceful. Being with her made me happy with everything, and I did not want to be with anyone else.It was difficult to ignore the problems around me, but my growing interest in her made me happy. She was getting under my skin in ways I never imagined. I thought losing Isabella had stolen my heart and that I would never be able to love again.And yet, here I am, feeling emotions I thought were long gone. I was ashamed to admit it, but my feelings for Iris may have been stronger than my feelings for my late wife, and the guilt was eating me alive. Why was I moving on so quickly?It was not fair to Isabella's memory, and I felt like I was betraying her, that by loving again, I was somehow dishonoring her memory.Apart from that, there was a major issue I was avoiding: my wolf, my fucking psycho wolf. This problem was a ticking time bomb waiting to go off, an

    Iris I crept behind my wolf companion, making sure my footsteps were soft on the grass. The wolf was as restless as usual, with its eyes darting back and forth."Hey," I said, crouching next to it and gently petting its fur. "What's wrong?" I asked softly. "You seem very sad today."The wolf whimpered again, fixing its gaze on me as if waiting for me to save it. I pulled it into a tight hug."I am here for you," I said, kissing the wolf's nose and watching as its body relaxed into my embrace. It was like magic, and I wondered what I was doing to this wolf to make it feel so at ease when it was with me.The poor thing looked so sad. I kept wondering what kind of human was hiding behind that gorgeous fur. Perhaps it was someone who had been hurt and was hiding from the world, like me. It's why I could relate to the wolf.It appeared to be carrying the weight of the world on its shoulders, and I hoped it was not someone who had been mistreated or abused. That would be extremely heartbre

    The next day was a barrage of activities, and I busied myself with learning how to create a lip kit and trying to distract myself from the unsettling encounter I had with Sophia the night before. When she walked by, laughing with one of our instructors, I shook my head, wondering how one person could have conflicting personalities. She looked so harmless and had earned the admiration of some of the girls for being classy and dignified. Looks can be deceiving. Sophia was a typical example of one. Later that evening, when the Alpha summoned me to the terrace, my heart skipped with excitement. But I was worried that this might lead to trouble. I hoped Sophia wouldn't be there because I wasn't ready for her confrontation.But I cherished the Alpha's company too much and wished that I didn't have to enter into the competition with the burden of lies and deceit. Maybe I would be free from judgment and guilt.Take Natalia, for example. She had beta blood and a non-murderer father. Report

    🔞🔞🔞🔞The sudden harsh ringing of the bell shattered my brief nap, making me sit up with a grumble. I noticed the girls hurrying to the scoreboard, eager to see the updated rankings.Assuming my score wouldn't have changed much and that there was nothing remarkable about it, I didn't even bother, but eventually, I got up and trailed behind. Last time, I was disgracefully ranked in the bottom four, and I didn't expect anything to change, especially since I'd missed several opportunities. When I reached the scoreboard, I was stunned into silence. My name had catapulted to the number two spot, just beneath Selena who maintained her top position as before, and Natalia who had climbed to the top place. Holy shit.I suspected Alpha Adonis' handiwork behind this sudden boost in my ranking. He must have pulled some strings with the organizers to inflate my score.I wasn't sure how to feel about this. Part of me was grateful, but another part of me felt uneasy. I wanted to earn my place f

    Iris“Why did I get so turned on in that cell when you flogged and degraded me?” I asked Adonis, curious about his answer. I rolled over to my back and he chuckled as he ran his fingers gently along my jawline, making goosebumps erupt under his touch. “Because you’re not as innocent as you think. You don't like vanilla sex.”“What's that?“It's when you have sex that involves more of a mutual give and take of pleasure. You don't like that.”“That's not true,” I countered. “I like sex with passion. But I like a little pain.”He looked at me with a broad grin and I flushed with embarrassment. “Don't make this difficult.”“Tell me what you like?” He said, his voice husky as he nuzzled my nose and peppered kisses around my chin.”"I have no idea,” I said truthfully. “You're the more experienced one.”“Power imbalance, that's what it is. You want me to dominate you. You delight in the sexual abandonment that comes with forfeiting control of your body and actions.”I bit my lip and my body

    IrisThe sorrow and pain in my heart was overwhelming; I couldn't stop sobbing. Adonis carried me over to his bedroom. Once there, he gently laid me down on the bed and sat down beside me.His hand brushed through my hair as he whispered soothing words in my ear and rubbed my shoulder. I continued to sob and felt utterly powerless to do anything but cryMy aunt used me as a pawn in a sickening game, and there was no getting rid of the feelings of betrayal and resentment. And then there was Natalia. Their betrayal ripped open wounds inside of me . The secrets and lies I had uncovered were like a heavy weight crushing my heart."Please, Iris, take your pills," Adonis begged me. But I shook my head, my eyes welling up with tears. "Take those damn pills away,” I yelled at him. “You don't understand what I went through. All the suffering and pain of being an Omega in an alpha household. I was constantly humiliated by my dad and stepmom who made my life a living hell!” My voice cracked a

    IrisMemories burst forth like fireworks in my mind, sharp and explosive. Each recollection came with a stabbing headache, like a dagger twisting in my brain. I winced and squeezed my eyes shut against the pain. But even the agony couldn't dim my joy. I was remembering things! Fragments of my past, long buried, were resurfacing. Faces, names, moments – all flooding back like a dam breaking.Adonis looked at me like he was seeing me for the first time. His mouth fell open in a gape. The way he grew still and serious made me chuckle. “You remember?” Was all he could say and I nodded. “I remember.”He went on his knees and grabbed my hand tightly, his breath hitching slightly. “Oh goddess…You really remember…” “It doesn't take a lot of effort on my part to remember how you locked me up and spanked my ass cheeks”He leaned back on his haunches and grinned widely, showing all his teeth. “Well, if it turns you on, I'm at your service all day. Just say the word.”I wanted to laugh, but

    AdonisI stood beside Natalia in the Lycan court to finalize our divorce.We had signed the papers a week ago, and today was the final step. Natalia's parents and Fred were present as well.The elderly judge looked over the papers and then gazed at us with a warm smile. "Adonis and Natalia, you have both agreed to this divorce, is that correct?""Yes, your honor," we replied in unison.His smile grew and he looked thoroughly amused. “ I must say, I've never seen a couple as amiable as you two. Happy divorce, I guess. Your marriage is hereby dissolved. May you both find happiness on your separate paths."“Congratulations to us,” Natalia said to me with a wink. Her parents and Fred applauded, and the judge was so dumbstruck which added more humor to the scene.I was about to walk away with Natalia when she grabbed my arm to stop me.“Oh yes, there's one thing I forgot to mention," she said. “Don’t give up on Iris.”My response was a pinky promise. I stepped out of the court and Fred drew

    IrisNatalia burst into my room, bouncing from foot to foot. Her eyes sparkled with excitement. "Okay, girl, let's get you ready for your big night!"Her energy was infectious and I felt a lightness in her chest.She began pulling out dress after dress from a bag and lay them on the bed. They all looked expensive."I think these are a bit too much for a garden date, don't you?" I ventured, eyeing the designer gowns. Natali ignored me, too busy sorting through the dresses and matching shoes and jewelry to each one."Ooh, this silver clutch would go perfectly with this dress!” she exclaimed, holding up a tiny bag that seemed to be made of pure moonbeams. "You're really getting into this, aren't you?" “Mm-hmm.”She continued to coordinate outfits with an intensity that rivaled a military operation, completely absorbed in her mission to make me look "absolutely stunning""Natalia, are you always this invested in your friends' dates?" "Maybe a little.But I just want to see you happy, Iri

    AdonisMy smiling was unrestrained and I felt all tension leaving my body and the temporary breathlessness after I pulled away from Iris' lips. It was like my life had snapped back to normal, and all the pain I felt this past month disappeared.Happiness was indeed a powerful emotion. One that was difficult to find when you've spent your whole life being miserable. My eyes were fixated on hers and they were shining brightly. She smiled back at me, and my heart skipped a beat. Her smile lit up her whole face and it made my heart fucking soar."I think I need to learn how to kiss properly. You seem like a pro,” said Iris, grinning.With great difficulty I tore my gaze from hers and grinned, unable to speak properly. "You're doing just fine. I don't mind sloppy kisses, I love you regardless. I love you much more than you can ever imagine.”Her face blushed pink and the grin slipped from my face."Did I say something uncomfortable? I'm sorry, I-”"No! No. Don't apologize.”"Then why did

    IrisA knock on my bedroom door broke my concentration. I was playing chess with Justin, and he was explaining the rules of the game to me, teaching me about the different pieces like the king, queen, knight, and their various moves.One of the maids came to inform me that my meditation instructor was waiting for me. I got off the bed, and Justin followed me downstairs.I was expecting a middle-aged man, just like the other doctors treating me, but I was pleasantly surprised to see a young woman, about my age, with long raven hair that reached her waist and an amazing cologne.“I'm Yolanda. It's a pleasure to meet you, Iris,” she smiled warmly as we did our introductions. I noticed she was subtly staring at Justin, and Justin, on the other hand, looked highly uncomfortable, as if he was both shy and in awe of her presence.His reaction amused me at first, and I made a mental note to joke about it later while I tried to focus on the task at hand.Yolanda gestured for me to sit down on

    Iris I sat in a dark room, crossing and uncrossing my legs and surrounded by the silence of anticipation.Fred, Justin, Natalia, and a few unfamiliar faces were all waiting for Adonis to emerge from his bedroom. He was unaware of the surprise that awaited him.I fought to keep my eyes open and was fighting with the weight of my medication, but my body was succumbing to exhaustion. My head nodded forward, and I jerked myself awake.We heard the sound of Adonis' bedroom door opening. Fred whispered that we get ready. Adonis walked into the room, looking different from his usual polished looks.Fred flipped on the light, and we all screamed, "Surprise!" in unison. The room erupted into chaos as everyone began singing "Happy Birthday" to Adonis.He was wearing a fluffy night robe, his hair was tousled, and his sleepy eyes widened in shock.“What's going on?” he asked with a chuckle, and his gaze darted around the room. When they landed on me, they lingered for a moment. He looked surpris

    IrisJustin and I strolled around the exterior of Adonis's mansion. The place was nothing short of beautiful, and I felt a wonder at being here.Forgetting to blink, I moved carefully to admire the fountain, the stone sculptures in various shapes and sizes, the manicured lawns, and every detail of it all.The structure was a far cry from Justin's small home. The grounds seemed to stretch on forever. I couldn't resist the urge to explore further. It was hard to fathom that one person could own so much wealth, and I wondered what kind of person the alpha was.Justin's voice broke into my thoughts. "He's ridiculously rich. I mean, it's almost illegal. How can one person have so much wealth?""Wow," I said softly so as not to break the spell. "And why would someone like that care about me? Does that mean I was rich before...?"My voice trailed off, and Justin looked at me. "I think you were. And I think staying with people from your past could help you remember."I stopped walking and lea
