Love radiated through my chest as I gazed at Adonis’s wolf. It looked awkward and animated, but at least it recognized me and wasn't violent."Hey, you," I said with a bubbly tone, kissing its forehead and feeling a deep compassion for both the wolf and my lover. I nuzzled his wolf with joyful tears filling my face."Do you believe me now?" I said softly to it. "I will never hurt you, Adonis, and I know that deep down you believe me. I love and care about you so much. If I had ulterior motives, I would have kept these secrets to myself."The wolf wagged its tail and leaned in. The very air around us seemed electrified, and I loved that the wolf drank in the comfort of my nearness."I love you forever," I said. "I cherish you, and I want you to know that you are worthy. Nothing is going to change that."Our closeness was like a drug, and my heart ached under my breast, knowing that this was a major weakness he had and his enemies were going to exploit him with it.My heart raced, wonde
Sarah drummed her fingers impatiently, frustrated by the traffic. They were stuck for over forty-five minutes. Every second counted, but each vehicle inched forward ever so slowly. Despite the air conditioner being on, Sarah felt like she was burning in an oven.Her husband was trying to calm her down over the phone, and even her driver received a piece of her frustration and was surprised that his boss would raise her voice. Sarah was usually mild-mannered, but not now. She was restless and impatient."Are you seriously transferring your aggression onto the poor driver?" her husband asked when she asked the driver if he could find another route."I can't sit here all day. I have to see Sophia today."Sophia hadn't returned any of her calls or messages. The silence was deafening, and Sarah couldn't sleep."I'm sorry, ma'am. There is no alternative route. You have to wait it out."Sarah fiddled with her wedding band, and after what felt like an eternity, they arrived at Sophia's apartm
Natalia was scared to death. She broke into uncontrollable sobs and dialed Adonis's line like a maniac. His number wasn't reachable, and neither was Fred's."Breathe, Natalia, breathe," she said to herself, but she couldn't stop thinking about that dreadful call—her mom's screams that pierced her heart, Sophia's cold words.That bastard was capable of killing her mother, and she knew it. Her words kept playing on repeat: "You have two hours to bring Iris to me or get ready to say goodbye to your mother."Natalia didn't understand what she had done wrong to deserve this and why Sophia was so cold and calculating. She screamed herself hoarse and fell to the ground, flapping her hands.There was a time limit, and each second that passed elevated her fear. She felt like her heart was being squeezed, and her mind jumped from one negative thought to another. She couldn't do anything but wail.Natalia knew Sophia's cruelty all too well. She was responsible for the acid that was bathed on Ir
I beamed with joy and my lips curling up into a bright smile as I slipped my hand into Natalia's. Freedom washed over me as we stepped out of the confines of the cell. I let out a satisfied sigh. My mind was flooded with positive thoughts, filled with visions of a bright future and endless possibilities. The world felt fresh and full of promise, and I was eager to embrace it all.But my excitement was short-lived when my gaze fell upon Natalia's rigid body. She looked tense and her lips were pressed into a thin line, as if she was struggling to contain a tremble.I sensed that something was amiss and grew concerned."Are you alright? You're acting weird."Her smile faltered before she forced it back into place. "Me? I'm...I'm fine," she stammered. She was nervous and betrayed her true emotions. She led me to a red car parked in the driveway and opened the back door. There was someone in the driver's seat, and I tried to pick out his face. He was a middle-aged man with salt-and-peppe
AdonisI clenched my teeth, my face contorting in agony. Why did I ever trust Axton?This place was a living hell, and I felt trapped. The stark white walls seemed to close in on me, suffocating me with their emptiness. I wanted to scream, but my voice was frozen in my throat, silenced by the oppressive atmosphere. Even breathing felt heavy, like inhaling lead. I was a prisoner with no escape.I was trapped in the isolation chamber, a cold, colorless room, courtesy of the insane doctor's fucking twisted experiment. They were messing with my sensory organs and starving my senses of the colors that made life worth living, and being there threatened to consume my sanity. The silence was killing me. I lay on the cold tiles, feeling buried alive, trapped and feverish.A constant, maddening hum in my head made it impossible to focus, likely a side effect of the medication they gave me. I struggled to understand why my human body was suffering the implications of having an abnormal wolf g
Adonis The mere thought of Iris struggling for her life, wherever she was, shattered me and tore my heart apart. My stomach was clenched tight with fear and panic rioting within me.Iris had suffered a lot, and I couldn't shake off the guilt of being responsible for her misery. Fred, Natalia, and I hastily jumped into the car, desperate to find her. Natalia sat in the back with her cheeks wet with tears."Call Sophia now," I instructed Fred, who promptly threw himself into the task. But Sophia's phone rang unanswered.Without hesitation, I floored the accelerator and sped past the limit. The estates became a blur as we sped toward the city. The roads were busy, and we waved through bustling markets and administrative blocks before turning onto a huge sunbaked road lined with tall, unfinished buildings.I would never forgive myself if anything happened to Iris. My head pounded and my heart ached as I wondered why everything bad was unleashing all at once, without even giving me a mome
Sophia felt deeply satisfied and let out a contented sigh. She'd never felt this much excitement in a long time."Congratulations to yourself, girl," she thought, "everything is falling right into your hands!" Her meticulous planning had outsmarted her enemies, and she was thrilled to see her plans unfolding. She burst into a joyful laugh and poured herself a glass of wine, craving something stronger but settling for what she had. Meanwhile, Iris lay tied to the bed, blindfolded, and looked like a mouse in a trap. Sophia chuckled and removed the blindfold, just to watch Iris writhe against the ropes that bound her. It gave her a fucking orgasm to watch her prisoner suffer. She relished the knowledge of the power that she held now. Iris looked drained and lifeless. Her sunken gaze was fixed on Sophia like a helpless puppy drenched in rain.Sophia gazed back at her, unsettled by the mixed emotions in her eyes: fear, determination, and a pitiful look. She didn't like the condemning
Sarah couldn't imagine anything that could ever erase the pain she felt. It was a sharp sense of loss, knowing Sophia wasn't her daughter. She had breastfed Sophia, and ensured she received a good education. Now, all of that seemed like an illusion. She sat beside her husband in the living room, gazing at the framed family photo of them with Sophia, remembering the day it was taken on Sophia's 11th birthday, when she had started developing a rebellious streak. Geoffrey turned off the flat-screen TV mounted on the wall opposite them, while Helena sat quietly, occasionally wiping away tears that rolled down her cheek, trying to stifle her emotions.Sarah felt no pity for Helena. She wasn't at a loss; this was all her fault.The air was thick with tension, and although her husband appeared calm, Sarah knew he was seething with resentment. The maid brought in tea and homemade cookies, placing them on the coffee table. Despite her anger, Sarah couldn't bring herself to not offer their
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
