Sienna:“The woman literally came to your house, and I am the one to blame?” I asked, raising an eyebrow at Arturo who smirked at my reaction.“Yes, because you as my wife should have been resting while you let ME take care of it. You could have gotten hurt, and I believe that the injury on your shoulder tells you that she would not have hesitated to hurt you again.” He said, his tone more sarcastic than it ever was. I had to fight back growling at the man who shook his head at me. “And I don’t understand why you are making a fuss out of the fact that she came to MY house right now. The doctor told you to rest, and yet, you chose to get into an argument with a Lycan, more specifically, the same Lycan who initially put you in this situation.”“I am your wife, and I don’t believe that she has the right to come to a newlyweds house. Whether or not our marriage is arranged, she does not know that, and that is the least of my concerns. As long as my house, my boundaries, and OUR rules are
Arturo:I frowned at Sienna’s reaction, trying to understand where the woman was going with it only to choose to ignore her and get up. She could starve herself for all I cared, at this point, I was tired of trying to satisfy her when it was clear to me that she needed to be tamed, and right now, I didn’t have time for that bullshit. I picked the tray up with me and walked out of the room, leaving her alone with whatever attitude she was dealing with. The way she looked at me made my chest ache, and I couldn’t help the frown that formed on my face at the feeling that I got as I closed the door. But of course, I knew that life couldn’t have been harder on a Lycan like myself as my wolf whimpered in pain. I frowned, turning to the door to hear her wolf growling in both pain and rage. Her growls were filled with both sorrow and agony, and feeling my chest ache again, I knew that her pain was not physical. Her scent filled my nostrils and despite her being my chosen mate. I couldn’t he
Sienna:I frowned at the heavy feeling that settled in my chest as I opened my eyes.My eyes met Arturo’s who was sitting on a chair by the bed, looking at me, watching my expression, studying it for a few seconds. My heart raced against my ribcage, and I found myself wanting to escape his intense gaze. But the man didn’t seem as phased as I was, if anything, he seemed to be a lot more relaxed. “I will not hurt you, Sienna.” He said, pushing me back as I tried to sit up. “But you need to rest, and the only way for me to have you do that is for me to sit by your head, ensuring that you didn’t try doing anything that is far too stupid for your safety.”“You are lying, and I don’t expect you to think that I would believe a word that you are saying.” I said, glaring at him. “You are choosing to use big words for a woman who has barely met me.” Arturo said, and I rolled my eyes as I sat up, recalling the fact that he had walked back inside the room after he left. The word mate having es
Arturo:I watched as Sienna sat in front of me, raising an eyebrow as she waited for what I had to say. In truth, even I wasn’t completely sure how this was going to turn out. But I knew that the two of us needed to talk about it. If anything, the two of us needed to find a middle line to make sure that we did not end up fighting again. It was starting to get on my nerves, and I was not a person who liked to be annoyed with such issues. “Look, I know that things started out very wrong. The two of us mated without even knowing that we were mates, and though I am not even sure how that was possible, we will be looking into it.” I said, looking her in the eye, watching as she calmed down somehow. “I know that things seem to be a little more messed up than we would like them to be, but we have no other option right now than to deal with it the way things were.”“You are repeating the same thing in different phrases.” She said, tilting her head to the right as she studied my expression.
Sienna:“What are we going to do today?” I asked, shaking my head in question. I knew that the two of us had a lot to do. From responsibilities to public gatherings. The two of us as newlyweds or as new mates to be more specific. The number of traditions that we had to follow were plenty. And Anika deciding to choose to injure me before they happened was something that annoyed me.“You are going to rest, and I will be tending to your needs as my wife.” He said, and I frowned in confusion. The man couldn’t be serious, I doubted that he was right now.“Arturo, we have our responsibilities to tend to, and the last thing we need is for the elders to think that we are neglecting them. You do know that we also have to invite them over…”“We will, and we won’t be neglecting anything. They would be coming here with your parents, and we would be hosting them here. They would see that the two of us are spending time together, away from the family, and that would be a plus for us.” He said, and
Arturo:I ran my fingers through my hair as I walked out of the bedroom, trying to think of what she told me. The way her eyes avoided mine as she grew uncomfortable, her body language, everything just played in my head as I recalled the conversation, trying to find a proper reason for it. And the thing was, I couldn’t, nothing really did explain what happened.Her asking for time to not answer was not something that I found as normal, and the fact that we were yet to get any information about her was something that also confused me. It was like the woman was living in vague, but that wasn’t something that I liked or understood. I walked to my office, and sat on my desk as I opened my laptop. I had a few things to read through, and the more I delayed my work, the more it would pile up on me, and that wasn’t something that I liked. Therefore, knowing that Sienna was now asleep, I knew that I could tend to them. I picked up the phone that was in my office, calling Alfred, knowing that
Sienna:“Arturo, can you please help me with the zipper?” I asked, walking toward Arturo who was fixing his tie. The man was already ready, and was merely putting on a tie and he hasn’t been getting ready for twenty minutes. Where I, I have been getting ready for the past three hours to ensure that I was ready on time, and he was ready long before I was. If anyone asked me, I didn’t think that it was fair, but then again, I didn’t have a say in the nature of how things went. Sadly…“Sure.” He said, wrapping his arm around me, motioning for me to turn around. He wrapped his arm around my waist, pulling me closer to his chest. My cheeks reddened and his hot breath hit my neck as he leaned in to kiss my neck from the back. The man let his lips linger there for a few seconds before he pulled away to kiss my cheek.He slowly pulled up my zipper, brushing his finger with my back, making my body shudder as goosebumps rose over my skin. “There you go.”“Thank you.” I said turning to face him
Arturo:Nikolay glared at his wife whose eyes were fixed on me.I knew that she was doing this out of revenge, but the woman was crossing the line. “I don’t think that you have any proof of what you are saying, Anika, but if it helps you; I would love to prove to you and your mates that I am not what you just claimed that I am.” I said, glaring at the woman who smiled at me. Her smile was one that I knew very well, it was the same one that she had on her face when she chose to be with Nikolay. The woman did it when I rejected her wanting to get a reaction out of me, and when she saw that there was no reaction, she grew angrier.“We’ll be the ones to investigate and judge that. The woman is a cop, and I do recommend that you speak to her with respect to ensure that you don’t end up behind bars.” Her colleague said and I nodded, giving her a cold smile. I looked at Sienna and nodded, watching as she smiled back, her smile assuring. She knew that things were going to be okay, but the fa
She smiled as she watched her husband walking out of the house, holding their daughter in his arms.It has been months since Sienna has given birth, and she couldn’t be happier with her relationship with the Alpha of Alphas. He was the Lycan that everyone feared, and yet, he was her savior, her love, her passion, and her desire. He smiled when he took sight of her before approaching her slowly. “Are you okay?” He asked, watching as his daughter went to her mother, wanting to be held by her. Contasina giggled as Sienna wrapped her arms around her, holding her to her chest before she kissed her.“I am fine. I just needed some air.” Sienna said, looking up at the sky. Today marked her mother’s birthday, and though Arturo didn’t know about it, he could tell that something was wrong with his mate. She would rarely ever open up about her mom. In her mind, she feared that speaking about her wouldn’t do her justice, and she was thankful for the fact that no one ever pressured her to do som
Sienna:I screamed as loud as I could as I tried pushing my baby out of me.“Come on, Luna, you can do it.” Valeria encouraged as she held my hand. I took deep and slow breaths as I tried fighting off the cramps which seemed to be tearing my insides out. My heart raced, and I knew that my mate could feel my pain, that didn’t make things any better though. The man was probably outside losing his mind as his father and two betas stopped and held him down.“Come on, Sienna, you can do it.” Ayla said, massaging my shoulder as she dabbed a wet cloth to my sweaty forehead. “Can’t I just get up and walk?” I asked, taking deep breaths as I waited for the next contraction. “If the baby can come out as I am laying, I am sure that it would just slip down when I’m walking… FUCK!” “You need to push, Sienna, just keep pushing.” Valeria said, choosing to ignore my question. I glared at her and forced myself to push one more time, my body feeling like it was set on fire as I waited for the pain to
Arturo:Six months later:I walked around the garden with my beauty who was holding her stomach as our baby kicked.I couldn’t help but smile at the feeling of contentment that I was having for her being around me the way that she was.The happiness that I felt was one that I knew I couldn’t describe and I couldn’t help but feel like my heart skipped a few beats as I recalled the two of us getting married and dancing on the dance floor in front of everyone who was watching us on our wedding day.Flashback:“Put a smile on at least, people are watching us.” I said, catching her attention as she looked down at my chest. I knew that she was careful not to step on my foot, but looking up at me, she raised an eyebrow.“I do believe that they are all aware that the two of us are nowhere near being lovers, why have to fake it?” She asked as I twirled her before pulling her closer to my chest. I wrapped my arms around her, her back was to my chest, and resting my chin on her shoulder, I kisse
Sienna:I lay on my bed as I tried to calm my racing heartbeat, thinking about everything that happened in the past few weeks.I had to admit, it seemed to me like I was the one who actually paid the price of everything that happened, mostly because I could tell that everyone was happy with the ‘achievement’ that we have managed to do. However, to me, it just seemed like a heavy weight had settled on my shoulders, and now, I really didn’t know how to get rid of it.Arturo opened the door without needing to knock, I knew that he was well aware that I wasn’t moving, meaning that I was either sitting on the couch or laying on bed. He sighed when he took sight of me before slowly approaching. He didn’t say a word, he didn’t need to, as he wrapped his arms around me, pulling me in for a hug. I purred in response and curled up in his arms, thankful for his presence. In my head, our relationship was the only thing that I have managed to gain out of this conflict. If anything, I knew that it
Arturo: “So, that explains it all.” I said, looking at dad who nodded. We were all sitting in the living room as I filled him in on what happened during the time that he and mom were gone. “I take it that the two of you are now in charge of two packs, and one of them has no elders.” He said, raising an eyebrow. “This one is the one by blood and family, but how do you guarantee that they wouldn’t end up rebelling? You know that with no elders, and with you residing here, it would be almost impossible for us to keep under control.” “Agreed, but that is a whole other story that I want to discuss with Sienna later. I need to get her opinion on this first before opening up about anything, but I would be letting you know about what we decide. Considering the fact that the pack is hers by blood, I don’t want to double cross her as well.” I said, looking at mom who nodded. Sienna was in the bedroom. She needed to rest a bit, and I wanted her to calm down before the two of us got to talki
Sienna: I smiled at my husband as the two of us went back to the pack. The fact that he was more than willing and open to sacrifice a lot for me only made me admire him more than I already did. The man did not only help me get back what was mine, but he also stood up to those who took it from me, and that was something that I knew that I couldn’t have done for myself. “Thank you for today, Arturo.” I said, catching his attention. He frowned in confusion before turning to face my blushing self. However, I couldn’t contain what I was feeling toward him. The way he spoke to me, and the way he stood up to the elders for me. His softening tone when his eyes would meet mine, all that played in my head like a beautiful scenario that I couldn’t escape. “Baby girl, I didn’t do anything for you to be thanking me for. If anything, I would have done a lot more, but I knew that pushing you to more limits would only make you a lot more nervous than you already were.” He said softly. “Arturo,
Arturo:I wrapped my arm around my wife as the two of us were led toward the field where the pack members were gathered.William, their wolf elder let out a low growl, forcing all the other wolves to submit and get on their knees. Their hearts raced against their ribcages, and I could see their fear in their eyes. However, the man didn’t flinch or move an inch.“Each one of you here is held accountable for the harm and abuse that Luna Sienna, Alpha of this pack, has gone through.” William said, glaring at the pack members. “Most of you, if not all, knew that she was being harmed, and yet, neither one of you took the stand to the witch who lived amongst the pack. Regardless of the fact that all of you knew that wolf and witch relations are illegal based on our laws to ensure the safety of the pack grounds, neither one of you took the stand to note that you had the hybrid living among your side.” The pack members trembled, and Eli looked down at Sienna’s feet as they had her forced to
Sienna:My heart raced against my ribcage as I saw the hellhounds dragging Marcus toward the doors which had opened. He tried escaping them, but wherever he went, they would just appear, ten times his size, and would just drag him. This time, three of them dragged him by his collar before another man appeared, walking out of the door to look at him. Arturo nodded at the man before he nodded and smiled, taking a step back. The smile was faint, but it was there, and then, as if nothing happened, everything went completely quiet.Arturo shifted back to human in a second before wrapping his arms around me, pulling me in for a hug. My heart raced against my ribcage and I couldn’t help the blush that formed on my cheeks as I felt his naked body against mine. “You’re naked and there are kids in the pack who have fled their houses.” I said, and he chuckled before kissing the crown of my head. He pulled away to look me dead in the eye and I couldn’t help the smile that formed on my lips bef
Arturo:I pulled Sienna behind me as I tried moving her from the forming fire.A low growl escaped my chest, alerting the pack members who were outside the pack’s boundaries, masking their scents with the herbs that were provided by the werewolf elders.Though I didn’t trust using them at first, I feared the pack members getting injured or them trying to kill us; however, I was surprised when that was not the case. If anything, it seemed like they were genuinely trying to stop a war from forming.“Arturo, what are we going to do?” Sienna asked, breaking the train of my thoughts. I purred in response, wanting her to calm down despite the situation that we were in. Eli knew how to take advantage of a weak moment that my wife would be having in such a situation and that was not something that I wanted. If anything, I knew for fucking fact that I was going to make that witch pay for what she was doing; however, for now, I needed my wife to be calm through this situation.Her wolf was inju
