Rosalind
"Rosalind, just give me your bag," Axel sighed, trying to get my backpack from me.
I chuckled while looking at his pouty face. "Axel, I can carry my bag on my own. Just treat me how you've been treating me back then."
"But I was an asshole to you back then."
"At least you know," I joked.
"Rosalind," he whined.
I went closer to him and held onto his cheeks. "I'm joking. You were an asshole to me on the first week that we've met, but do you think I'd like you if you were just an asshole? You are sweet, kind, hardworking, and incredibly handsome. That's why I fell for you."
I saw the corner of his lips going up, making me want to tease him. "Are you happy now?"
"It's because of you."
"Hmm? I make you happy?"
He placed his arms around my waist, rubbing them up and down. "Very."
I felt my face heating up, so I hit his chest to get him to stop holding my waist.
"Enough with
Rosalind"Axel," I said, my voice shaking.From the sound of the growl, I could tell that the size of the creature in front of us was enormous.As the fog cleared out, I found out that my suspicions were right.Axel and I unconsciously took a step backward, looking at the ginormous being in front of our eyes. It was a big, green creature—nothing like I've ever seen before. Its teeth were dripping with some kind of black liquid, and I covered my nose because it smelled like rotten garbage.Its eyes were bloodshot, almost hungry, and its skin was scaly like a snake and rough like tree bark."What...is that?" I asked, both in awe and in fear."I don't know," Axel responded.The creature suddenly started walking toward us, and Axel started slowly unsheathing his sword. The creature must have been incredibly observant because the next thing we knew, it pounced on us, baring its teeth.
RosalindAxel and I looked at each other before turning our attention to the man right in front of us.He had a huge smile on his face, and he was looking at us with bright and cheery eyes. Is this really Alpha Cupid? The Alpha Cupid I've heard of is strong, mean, and quite intimidating.Looking at the man right in front of us now, it seems like he wouldn't even be able to hurt a fly.I looked around his office. "Are you sure we're in the right place?" I whispered.Axel looked at his map with furrowed eyebrows. "Yes. We're in the right location," he nodded his head."Where were you planning on going?" the man right in front of us intercepted."Uhmm," I stalled. "To Alpha Cupid.""Oh, then you've come to the right place. I'm Alpha Cupid—if it wasn't obvious," he gestured to the huge nameplate in front of him.Axel pulled his chair closer and observed Alpha Cupid. "Don't you
RosalindThe two of us were currently in the tavern that Alpha Cupid was pertaining to. We only planned on venturing out on this trip for one day, but it seems like our plans have changed.Alpha Cupid's guard led us to this tavern, and he told us that Alpha Cupid had let us stay here for free. It was a cozy cottage in the middle of the forest, and it was surprisingly kempt despite not being used.I cleared my throat as I looked at the gap between Axel and I. We were sitting down on the large bed, and we hadn't been speaking since the moment that we came in.It's strange. We have been sharing the same room in the palace for the past two months, but it seems different today.Maybe it's because we already know what we're going to be doing here in three days."So," I said, breaking the silence. "What do we do now?"Axel let out a deep breath and glanced at me nervously.I chuckled while looking a
RosalindI stormed off before Axel could see how red I was from his comment. To be honest, I wanted to cave in to his request, but I also wanted our first time to be the time we complete the mate bond.I heard his footsteps coming after me, so I quickened my steps. However, since his legs were longer, he was able to catch up to me very quickly."Rosalind," he said, poking my back.I ignored him and kept walking. I was still too shy from what he said earlier on."Rosie," he gently pulled on my hair this time.I sighed and quickened my steps once more."Baby," he whined, making me stop in my tracks."Baby?" I whispered under my breath, butterflies erupting in my stomach.I turned around and saw him smirking down at me. "So, that's how to get your attention, huh?"I glared at him and turned away from him.He chuckled. "I'm sorry, baby. Were you uncomfortabl
MATURE CONTENT AHEADIf you are a minor or if you are not comfortable with this type of content, please skip to Chapter 64.RosalindAxel immediately devoured my lips as soon as I uttered the word "baby." I felt him pull me closer by my waist and kiss me even deeper. However, he stopped mid-way and looked at me with misty eyes. "Are you sure that you want to do this?" he whispered against my lips.I just nodded my head and kissed him once again.He gently pushed me away once more, so I frowned at him. Does he not want to do this?"Words, baby. I need your words to confirm that you really do want this."I groaned in frustration. "Yes, Axel. I want this."His eyes were finally free from any restraint, and he bit my lips. "I've been wanting to do this," he growled.I slowly unraveled my bathrobe while
AxelI woke up feeling like a completely different person. I felt...new. It was like an entirely different world had opened up—and that world was the woman right in front of me.I remembered every single detail of what happened last night—from her flushed skin, sexy sounds, and uncontrollable expressions. I remember all of it. I want to replay it over and over inside my mind because it was honestly the best night of my life.I smiled as I continued watching her face. The glow from the night before still showed on her skin, and she couldn't be more beautiful under this light.The sun was already out, and the birds were chirping, but I didn't dare wake her up yet. I knew that she was still feeling tired from what we had done last night, so I wanted her to get all the rest that she needed.Honestly, I also didn't want to get out of bed and just savor this moment for a little bit longer. I let out a deep breath and g
AxelRosalind ran off without any warning.The old woman seemed confused by her sudden action, so I turned to her and bowed my head."Thank you, ma'am! We best be going now," I said.Although she still seemed a little bit confused, she nodded her head and gave me a small smile.I then ran off after Rosalind."Fuck. What the hell happened?" I muttered under my breath.We weaved through the crowd until we finally made it to the palace gates. The guards, seeing that it was Rosalind and I who were coming their way, quickly opened the gates and let us inside."Welcome back, Princess Ro—,"They didn't even get finish their greeting since we were already running towards the palace.The first person we came across with was Sebastian, who was worriedly pacing back and forth on the front porch.Once he saw us running towards the palace entrance, he sighed in
RosalindI couldn't believe my eyes.Just as Desdemona uttered those words, Venice and Logan trudged down the stairs with proud smiles on their faces.None of us dared speak as we watched them go down. However, it didn't take a genius to see that we were all taken aback by the unexpected information.The moment they got down the stairs, they started walking to where we were."Oh, Rosalind! You're back?" Venice said in a fake cheery voice.I didn't respond since I was still processing everything in my mind."Everyone's here too! Perfect! I could introduce all of you to my precious mate. This is my mate and the future king of the Faerie Kingdom—Alpha Logan of the Silver Raven pack," she gestured towards Logan."H—how?"Those were the only words that I could say.Venice and Logan looked at each other and chuckled to themselves."What do yo
It has been exactly eight months since Axel and Cupid called each other to share that their respective wives were pregnant, and it has also been eight months since they’ve been seeing each other every month. Axel sighed as he packed his bags once again.“Are you ready, love?” Rosalind called out from the bathroom.Axel smiled and tried to sound cheery. “Yes, love. I’ll just load the bags in the car.”“Alright, I’ll come down after peeing,” she called out.“Stay here while I load our things, love. I’ll go back here to come and fetch you.”Rosalind flushed the toilet and moved out of the bathroom. “Wait, let’s just go together,” she walked toward her husband. She held onto her back as she walked since her stomach had gotten so big that her back failed to support her by itself anymore.Axel clicked his tongue and shook his head when he saw her struggling to walk. He placed their bags down on the ground and walked over to where she was. One hand held onto her back while the other held on
Axel excitedly dialed Cupid's number, ready to tell him about the unexpected news. As much as the two of them try to deny it, they both know, deep inside their hearts, that they treat each other as very good friends. "Yo," Axel said into the phone. "I have something to tell you." "Axel!" Cupid greeted in an equally jolly voice. "I was just about to call you too. I also have some great news." Axel became a little suspicious when he heard that Cupid, too, had some good news, but nothing could really take away from his happiness after the news that he had just heard. "You go first, then," Axel presented since he is in a good mood. "Nah, man. You go first. You're the one who called me first. Go ahead," Cupid responded. "No, you." "No, you go first." "No, YOU go first." "No, you're the one who should go first." They endlessly said to each other. In the end, Axel sighed in frustration. "Let's just say it at the same time, alright. Then we'll explain it individually afterward." "Fi
"Did you get it?" Rain excitedly said as she went out of her office. Liam looked up from his laptop and focused his attention on Rain. "Get what?" Rain sighed in frustration. "The invitation!" "What invitation?" he asked, confused. Rain walked closer to him and went behind his back. "I told you to check your personal email more often. Come on, open up your account." Liam quickly opened up his personal email account and clicked on the latest message. He read the contents of the email. "A high school reunion?" "Yeah," Rain nodded her head. "Let's go together." Liam smiled. In the course that they have been dating, he could feel that Rain had changed for the better. She had gained so much confidence over the past few months, and Liam feels proud knowing that she had grown to love and appreciate herself even more. "Yeah, let's go together. I also miss some of my high school friends." Rain smiled. "That's settled, then. Let's also buy our outfits together." *** Rain and Liam t
"This is it," Cupid removed his hands from Gillian's eyes, revealing a spacious yet cozy-looking infrastructure filled with antique designs. "Our new bakery." Gillian looked at the infrastructure in awe, and suddenly got teary-eyed when she realized that they were going to be having a new chapter in their life. Cupid chuckled as he observed his wife's teary eyes. "Why are you crying? This is supposed to be a happy event, love." Gillian wiped her tears with her sleeves and tried her hardest not to cry. "I know, love. I'm just so proud of the two of us." Ever since Gillian and Cupid had been married, they started thinking more about their future. They both knew that Cupid's investments would be more than enough to provide for their everyday needs, but they still would want to have a steady, stable income where the two of them can work together. And as someone who enjoys cooking and baking quite a lot, Cupid suggested that they open a cafe near Briana's restaurant. He thought that
No matter how many times Axel wakes up to Rosalind in the morning, he still can’t get over how beautiful his wife is. He smiled and leaned closer to her face, tracing her features from her eyes down to her lips.“Axel, stop that,” Rosalind swatted his hand away and scooted farther away from him.“Love, stay here,” Axel whined and pulled her closer, peppering kisses all over her neck.“I’m tired, Axel,” she grumbled and closed her eyes to get more sleep.“Why, my love? Didn’t you get enough sleep yesterday?”Rosalind clicked her tongue and glared at Axel. “Of course, I’m tired! You fucking ruined me yesterday.”Axel smiled with pride. “But you liked it, right?”Rosalind rolled her eyes and turned away from Axel, trying to hide her reddening cheeks. "Whatever. I'm going to sleep."Axel chuckled and placed a chaste kiss on top of her shoulder. "Rest well, my love. I'll be cooking some breakfast.""Mmh," Rosalind hummed, willing herself to sleep once again. Axel quietly went out of the b
Olivia and Dallas gazed back and forth between Liam who was on stage and Rain who was sitting right next to them. Olivia couldn't help but let out a small chuckle when she saw Rain's flushed face as other people also started teasing her. "How the fuck did he know what I was going to wear?" she asked. Dallas shook his head. "I went with him. He definitely didn't know. He just grabbed the first sweater he saw at Target. Must be destiny or something." Rain knew that Dallas was joking when he told her about destiny, but she couldn't help but blush at the thought that they might really be destined for each other. Liam, who saw Rain from a distance, was also shocked to see that they were wearing the same sweaters. He smiled to himself as he watched Rain getting teased by her other co-workers. 'I knew that going to Target would be a good idea,' he thought in his mind. "Good evening, everyone!" Liam finally said into the mic. The crowd cheered and clapped their hands, ready to star
When Liam told Rain that he would show her how he truly feels, she thought that he was just joking. There was no way that the guy she has been liking for the past seven years would suddenly show interest in her and make the effort to prove it.However, much to her surprise, he wasn’t lying. Ever since that day, she would always see her favorite coffee on top of her desk. On the weekends, flowers would suddenly show up on her doorstep. And during the end of her shift, Liam would always be waiting for her to take her home.She arrived in the office and saw yet another coffee, accompanied by two blueberry muffins, on top of her desk.“Damn, girl. I’m jealous of this admirer of yours. You’ve been receiving free breakfast for the past week!” Olivia saidRain chuckled and handed Olivia one of the blueberry muffins before taking a sip from her coffee. Olivia smiled in delight before taking the blueberry muffin from Rain's hands. "Do you already know who this admirer is?" she asked. Rain st
“I like you, alright?” Rain bursted out.“I’ve liked you for so damn long that it’s killing me inside! I know that you don’t see me that way, and I also know that you have something going on with Claire, that’s why I hate myself for even thinking about you—for thinking we could be together. So, stop doing this—whatever this is that you’re doing. To you, this might only be an act of friendship, but to me who has liked you from the beginning, I am starting to misinterpret your actions. It’s so fucking difficult for me to act platonically with you if you keep doing these things. So, please. Stop. I’ll also stop bothering you from now on.”Liam intently listened to every word that Rain said. He never expected this, to be honest. To him, Rain was like an honest friend that always had his back. She would always be there to comfort him whenever he felt down, and even when he had problems with Claire, she’d always be there to listen. Looking back on it, Rain must have suffered a lot because o
Liam felt giddy as he parked his car in the parking lot. Even if he didn’t get much sleep last night, he still somehow feels energetic. It’s like there’s something, or rather, someone he’s looking forward to seeing to in the office. Rain, on the other hand, had a full night of sleep but she still felt like she didn’t get enough rest. She placed her things down on the table and sat down on her chair with a deep sigh. Olivia saw this, so she walked towards her and placed her hand on her shoulder. “Hey, you alright?”“Mmh?” Rain looked up at Olivia and smiled. “I’m great, Liv.”Even if Rain smiled, it somehow didn’t feel genuine. “Did everything go well yesterday?” Olivia asked, wondering if something bad happened during the dinner, causing her to act like this.Everything went well. Too well, if you ask Rain. Liam and her had the best conversation they ever had, but it only reminded her that their relationship stops at that. She hates herself for thinking that the two of them could ac
