Rose’s POVI watched as the other two followed along. Kayden didn’t look pleasant whilst Adian looked more amused and even a bit pleased? I couldn't tell what had gone on in his head or why he had suddenly left like that or why Adian had passed me a look.Moments after they left and it was only us three, we awkwardly sat back down on the couch to continue from where we stopped. Strangely, this time I couldn't find it in myself to move close to George. He didn't ask either.A few minutes later, only two of them came out. Kayden passed us without a word. Adian, on the other hand, moved towards me in particular.“You should probably go to comfort the dear Alpha.” He whispered in my ear. Shifting away, I eyed him and looked at George and Lily, who were no doubt aware of his presence but decidedly ignoring our interaction.Usually I tried to not give Adian the time of the day, but since it involved somebody I knew , I swallowed in response.“What was up with Rael?” I asked.He smiled, quir
Rose’s POVIn the cold night, that moment was all I could think of.My thumb dragged across my skin, the sensation a constant reminder as I replayed the moment deep in my mind.His hot breaths, lightly brushing against mine. The faint scent of mint and that extra something I couldn’t decipher as he was so close to me. His dark eyes, piercing mine and sending a heat through me. We were so close. We were about to-I shoved the thought away, shutting my eyes tightly.So far, I have had two -technically three - encounters with him. The first time was a drunken romp, one which was hazy aside from the reminder of constant pleasure. The second had been intense, borne out of the pent up emotions all colliding into a rushed field of sensations.The third, or second half so to speak, was the most intense. Slow and sensual. I remembered the images on the pillow, the sight of the movement below as he…I whimpered as the heat in my core became more intense. It took willpower to not let my hand go
Rael’s POVShe was a minx.Coming to the place where she knew I was in the night, dressed so temptingly, the tenuous hold I had of myself broke the moment she turned back about to leave.Now I had her in my arms and I wasn't planning on letting go.I moved my lips against hers, slipping my tongue into her warm cavern. Circling my other arm down her waist, I pushed her further towards me.Against me, her soft body pressed up, reminding me of what exactly she was wearing. My instincts ran on overdrive. The urge to claim her then and there was far too overwhelming to bear.Instead, I slipped her night robe off one side of her shoulder- the unmarred side, free of my bite- and placed my mouth firmly onto her. I laced at her neck, the sweet scent she gave off driving me to suck harder.The squeal she gave off in return spurred me on. Her hands gripped my shoulder tightly, nails digging into my clothes. It wasn’t painful.My other hand on her lower waist pushed her closer against me, the urg
Rose’s POV“Mmmm.”Warmth surrounded me. I wanted to stay in it forever.Slowly but surely, I awakened.I lifted my heavy eyes open, lightly spotting a flash of brightness before shutting them again. What was the need of waking up at this moment? Right now, all I wanted to do was go back to peaceful oblivion.With a sigh, I moved towards the smooth warmth, snuggling further under it. Wait…warmth?My eyes immediately popped open. Adjusting to the morning light I finally realized.The memories of last night came back to me. His heated bruising kiss, his touches, and his words.“Prepare to be thoroughly disrespected.”I felt my cheeks rise up as the memories came on. Goodness, I had been so wanton. Lifting my hands to the mark on my neck, I hovered. A slight brush sent a sensation within me. The memory of him biting on the mark, right before I came… And speaking of last night, my eyes trailed down to the bed where Rael was sleeping. It felt too unreal to be true.Everytime we had spen
Rose’s POVHe looked dashing, to say the least. I was awestruck by his appearance.As if he could get any sexier.His presence here still confused me. Why had he called me out here? I was about to find out the answer soon.“Come.” He said.Confusion filled me with his words. “Why?” I asked. “Where are you taking me?” Though enticed by his fancy car and his handsome frame, I definitely wasn't going to just go out with him.“I'm taking you out.”His words dawned on me, and I looked down at what I was wearing. Thankfully I had not changed yet, however I wore a pair of faded and slightly ripped jeans with a yellow t-shirt. Though these were the outfits I was comfortable wearing at home, they did nothing to flatter my figure. Neither did it seem to belong anywhere near him, who looked like the epitome of fanciness.Looking up, I shook my head.“No.”His brows furrowed, and I hunched over myself more. “Can you just give me some time to change?” I pleaded, ready to turn back and run into
Rose’s POV“So, tell me more about yourself.”I looked up at him, surprise flittered over my face. “Don’t you already know about me?” I asked. I continued at his surprised look. “I got the hint the moment I went to your company for the first time. They knew my name already.” I said.“They could have gotten it from a news site.” He countered. “Yeah… but then again I figured rich people screen everyone around them.” I raised my eyebrow, daring him to prove me wrong. He didn't.“Touché.” He smirked lightly, raising his glass of water before drinking.For a moment, my eyes trailed down to his throat, where his Adam’s apple bobbed as he drank. The sight sent something curling within me.I shook my head immediately. How could I become so wanton?I managed to compose myself by the time he was done.“Well then, since you’ve already assumed that I know everything about you, humor me then.” He said.The gears turned in my head for what I was about to say.“Well…I like the color yellow,” I sai
Rose’s POVThe more I looked, the more frightening it became.Their figures revealed themselves to the light. Large hulking beasts with their teeth bared, and their jaws snapping with growls.Fear caught up my throat as they circled us. I I looked towards Rael beseechingly, wondering what he would do.He seemed calm and unruffled, if a bit annoyed. There was no fear in his eyes, even as the wolves - no, Dankehs - circled the car.“Rose.”I answered by humming, too terrified and dumbstruck to speak. He looked like he was already prepared.“Stay inside the car.” He said.‘Like I had any choice to leave’ I wanted to retort, but this moment was not the time nor the mood for any of that. Instead I nodded fervently, flinching at the growls I could hear even from the shut windows.“Once I leave this car, lock all the doors as fast as you can. Do you hear me?” As he mentioned leaving, my first instinct was to retort, asking for his sanity. But there was no need for this time, because I knew
Rose’s POVLife was good.Perhaps not in the traditional sense. Afterall my life had steered off course from the way I had initially planned it months ago, but as it seemed, this feeling was pleasurable.Months ago, when I had freshly graduated from college, I never expected that my life would change so much, or that the reason for the change was going to be a stranger I had met in a club.But here I was in the present, and I was living a completely different life than before.The moment I woke up, I stretched. I had a feeling that today was going to be a good day.I lived in comfort and Rael…Well, that was a whole other thing, wasn’t it?I stretched as I sat up, about to slip out of the bed, only to be dragged back down onto a warm hard chest. I smiled as his arms wrapped around me.“And where do you think you're going?” His voice rumbled beneath me. A smile unabashedly came onto my lips. So far, since our agreement, he had become unknowingly more affectionate. Though his countena
