CONANI was glad she was slowly warming up to me and had said it plainly to my face about her letting go of the past.I had been a jerk, watching.But one thing was for sure, Lex always made it clear and knew that no matter how hard I tried in pushing her away.She was meant to be my mate assigned to me as a gift from the moon goddess.And who would have thought that I would be so deeply in love with the one person, I always tried pushing away?I got off the bed, with her still laying as she stared at me.“Duty calls?” she asked, smiling at me.“I have to attend to a few things around the pack house,” I said.Knowing fully well that I wasn't heading elsewhere other than the dungeon where I had the lady who tried hurting her was kept.I smiled at her as I had the door opened, as I had it closed slightly on my way out.I had felt bad lying to her about it all but didn't want her to learn about me making the decree for her to be killed.And it was my pure delight to watch her being execu
CONAN“Sir, there are some people here to see you”’ A guard of mine said walking up to me, out in the field.I turned to face him wondering who it was he meant.“Where are they?” I asked adjusting the collar of my dress.“At the pack house Sir,” he said.I gave a nod as I walked behind the guard leading me to them.I had expected to see an alpha from some other pack probably here to make peace or on a mission to start up a business with us.And thereby making us partners.But on getting there, I met a few people.I turned facing the guard standing right next to me.“Why are they here?” I asked.“They were part of the families who were affected by the previous attack on the pack.“And now they have come to seek for help,” he said,I had my focus back on them as I stared at the youngest of them.It was a little girl, who was around the age of five.I bent to her smiling, as I held her by the cheeks.“What’s your name?” I asked smiling at her.“I’m Anna” she said holding on to her teddy.
CONANIt had been years since I had gotten an invite to a pack dinner.It was more like a dinner meant for all neighboring alphas and pack members.The last time I could recall being invited to one was the night I had been in a fight with Claire.Where we ended up making out on the bathroom floor.Being in dinners like this particular one came with so many memories.And not to mention the fact that there would be other rivalry packs amongst us.Thereby causing the tension around the walls of the hall to increase.And that was sort of the reason I wouldn't want to miss out on the fun of watching them glare at themselves on the dance floor.“What does the letter say?” Lisa asked, still munching on her food.I paused for a minute, realizing I had been far gone in my thoughts for a while.“Hmm?” I asked.“The letter”“What does it say?” she asked.I stared down at the letter realizing she had said something.Or asked rather.“Oh yeah, the letter,” I said.“Nothing serious, it's just an in
CONANI was sort of confused hearing him call her his granddaughter.He pulled her into himself for another long embrace.Lisa looked even more confused at this point as everything was happening so fast in the twinkle of an eye.I stood staring at both of them with the glass of wine in my hand as I suddenly felt I was missing out on something.I have known Alpha Reid to be a former lycan alpha, who was known across the pack and even amongst other packs to be ruthless and brutal.I pulled Lisa to myself, the moment I noticed she was getting restless with the information.She looked so lost and was probably thinking he was saying stuff under the influence of the wine.“Relax” I whispered in her ears.But little did she know that I was even more disturbed than she is right now.And I was so interested in knowing and hearing what he had to say.I had been so curious to hear more of the information about her being the long-lost daughter of the Reids.So apparently she was born into Reid’s
ALPHA REID's POVI couldn't take my eyes off her and the little alpha male Conan.She was just a replica of her father, and her white strands of hair which was tucked in and rolled into a bun made it so easy to identify her in the crowd.I looked around the whole hall, hoping to find my right-hand man.I had wanted to take her home and be the grandfather she never experienced.But with the way they held hands, it was quite obvious that they were in love.I stared at her from a distance, admiring how beautiful she looked.And how much resemblance she had with her father.I could recall how innocent she was before the night it all happened.The attack…I closed my eyes, trying to recall what exactly had happened that night.It had been the worst night ever for our pack.The night I lost the most precious gift that the moon goddess had to offer for being a good Lycan and Alpha to my people.My granddaughter…Funny thing now is that, her name along the line never changed.I had suddenly w
LISAThe man claiming to be my grandfather looked intimidatingly tall, compared to the height of the older men around.He had the stature of a ruler and from the way he spoke, he wasn’t just anybody.And I could tell from his posture and movement, he was already in his 70’s.He had same white strands of hair by the side of his ears, but wasn't so obvious as to the fact that he was old and was already having multiple grey strands alongside.And from the way he looked at me smiling, I wasn't so sure whether or not he was being honest.But obviously the hair and from the way he called my name, he was obviously family.I had never imagined myself ever getting the chance to reunite with any member of my family.And not even in a ball room or an event like this.As I had always known myself to be an orphan, and one without any family member to claim.I was happy seeing that I actually belonged to a family well known around the pack.And all these years, they had thought I was killed and bur
LISAI suddenly wondered why it was that they all kept mute the minute I asked that.Most of the elders looked me up and down, like I had said something to upset them all.I looked around to find them all staring at me.And then I felt the hands of Conan on my hands, as he had his eyes to his food.“I'm sorry if I have sort of crossed my boundary” I said lowering my head.“No, it's fine!!” Alpha Reid said.I paused waiting to hear what he had to say as the others had their eyes on us.“The thing is, a lot of us here had lost a member in the attack and most of them don't feel comfortable talking about it” he said.I had felt so bad bringing that up for a discussion at the table.“I didn’t mean for it to bring back memories unwanted,” I said staring at them.“I'm so sorry” I said.“It's fine Child” one of the elders said smiling at me aa he spoke.“You were just a baby when it happened and so we can’t literally go mad at you for asking,” another elder said.I felt relieved hearing him s
LISAI had woken up to the sound of horns blaring from outside the mansion.I rubbed my eyes as I had myself uncovered from the sheets.The sunlight shone directly into my eyes, as I stretched my hands and leg.I rolled over from the bed feeling so relaxed from me getting to rest all through the night.I got up on my feet, as I was headed out to the balcony wondering what it was they were busy with.And on getting to the balcony, I was shocked to see a live band coming into the mansion.I paused to see what it was they were here for.And as I stood there for a couple of minutes, I heard someone knock by my door.I walked my way to the door and I had it opened wondering who it was at this early hour of the day, as it was that I wasn't expecting any visitors around.And having anyone come knocking aside Conan would be quite odd. “Good day my lady” the maid said smiling at me.I was surprised seeing her right In front of me with a dress in her hand.“Am I missing out on something?” I as
CONAN The long ride home had us giggling and singing and been naughty. I loved Lisa, in every sense of it. She was perfect and flawless and just the right mate for me. Once upon a time, I wanted to choose my mate, the one I deemed fit. I had these high expectations that barely any woman could reach. I abused the moon goddess daily for the supposedly wrong match, and in repentance, I worshipped her daily. I was so wrong and I was glad Lisa endured. She matched my energy, gave me more than I required, and was patient, in a nutshell, she met my expectations and more. While the ride continued, she leaned over and laid her head on my shoulder. I arched it downward a bit, to accommodate her perfectly. I curved my hand so the back of her head rested on my bicep and my hand stroked her hair tenderly. We remained silent as we rode the left of the journey home. When we arrived at the pack house, the servants had already lined up in a file, with balloons and cakes and food and gifts. With
LISA And as expected, both alphas drifted into politics for a moment and when they caught me playing with my food in response, they stopped. "Oh, it's nothing. You can continue. Plus, I want the best for Conan and our pack.” I approved of it. Conan made a face. He was not one to blush, but I felt him do so. "Are you sure? Conan, you can't just agree. Ladies have a way of saying yes and hold you responsible for agreeing to their yes when you had the chance to stop them.”"What?" I chuckled. "Papa Reid, not you roasting your own daughter. I truly approve of it. Besides, I have him all to myself after this breakfast.”"Right." He nodded with a smile. And almost immediately, they continued. We finally finished the make, with them chatting and analyzing instances for the longest. I remained mute. "Excuse me,” A maid started and waited for them to grant her silence and their audience. "The driver is here, Alpha Conan and lady Lisa.”"Alright, we will be down shortly.” Conan dismissed
LISAWe got ready in thirty minutes' time and went downstairs to join papa Reid for breakfast. Already, he had knocked twice on our door and each time he did that, Conan and I would laugh our guts out. If only he knew the silly lots he was housing. “Finally.” He spat. His food was untouched, was he truly waiting for us? For me...his grandbaby? Oh wow. Such a lovely papa. I made a sorry face. Truly, I was truly sorry for making him wait, but never sorry for what I did to make him wait. "Sorry papa Reid." I pouted. “You don't have to be. It's not your fault, I'm sure of it.” That cracked the shit out of me. The fuck! Conan couldn't stop laughing himself... I'm sure he tried to defend himself but lacked the proper word for it. The greatest mistake he had probably made was to allow papa Reid to see his erection. Great torture then the engorged blood. I'm certain of it. "Thank you, papa Reid for that.” I added salt to Conan’s wound. He pinched me with his hands that rested on my
LISA I laid quiet on his bosom, as I listened to the sound of his breathing and watched the rise and fall of his chest. His eyelids are firmly shut, and he's lost in a beauty sleep. I admired him keenly but quietly. I enjoyed every moment I watched him be vulnerable. He may seem hard and look the part, but he had shown me so much affection that I can't even measure up. Still in admiration, sleep came and stole me like a thief. Morning came sooner than envisaged. Like last night, I lazily sprawled, only that this time was different. The hard frame of the figure next to me restricted my further silly movements. I yawned and rubbed on my eyelids recklessly. I turned to face him, and admired the lines of his lips, his perfectly high cheekbones, his narrow nose and the most beautiful eyes that are now covered by their lids. I stretched my hand, but then refrained from running my fingertips across his features. I swallowed hard knot in my throat and rather watched him as I felt wet do
LISA The night dragged on longer than necessary. I lazily sprawled like a child, too weak to get up. My eyelids flickered, once, twice and then thrice, before it remained wide, as I scanned the four walls of the room. It's emptiness greeted me. No Conan. I sat up with a hasty sprint, worried about where he must have gone. He's not a night walker, hence he only did once he had a lot on his mind or when he wanted to enjoy the full moon. I got off bed, stalk naked and walked to the window. Pulling down the blinds, I couldn't help but notice the crescent moon. It was definitely not one of those times Conan would stay wide awake, so what could be the problem. After I scouted for a robe that fits, I started to get dressed when the door opened, he walked in and shuts it. Jeez. I sighed. Both shocked and relieved. His eyes were wide open as they scanned my disturbed frame. He walked towards me, not saying a word. “Where did you go?” I began and paused, on realizing it wasn’t the right
CONAN.I took the towel at the extreme and pat dry my body in haste. As nude as I was born, I walked into the room and settled on the bed beside her. To my greatest surprise, she was already asleep. Jeez!I sighed and covered myself with the rest of the duvet. My body is very much pressed to hers, seeking the slightest of warmth and comfort from her soft skin. Frustrated, I sighed again. She must truly be tired and the cool breeze from the air conditioner wasn't helping. For what seemed like long minutes, I watched her sleep peacefully like a baby...my baby. Her beautiful face adorned the room like a rose amidst thorns. Her skin glowed flawlessly and brightened the room, and even more so, she was beautiful when she was messy and with her makeup off. If this wasn’t perfect, then perfect is definitely not a word. I traced my fingertip along the bridge of her nose and watched her twitch her muscles. I smiled at how her smooth face formed a wrinkle which disappeared seconds later.
CONAN.I stood up and tried to lift her up, but she remained adamant, struggling to keep pinned to the couch. It's a bit odd, seeing how frail she is, one would only imagine she would be weigh this heavy. I playfully groaned as I tried to pull her up again, and she smiled. "Common Lisa, we need to freshen up.” I tried to convince her, quite exhausted from combating with her. "You go ahead then, besides you need it more." She managed to whisper and then sniffed in my direction to prove her point. I scoffed. "Oh, really?”"Of course." She smiled as she sniffed again. "Phew!” She mimicked gagging. Nasty. "You're yet to believe your lies.” I replied bluntly, suppressing the laughter that was brewing inside of me. "You should get up by the count of three...”“Or?” She rolled her eyes. I never thought of it. But now that she mentioned it, I assessed her to know the best response. “Or you will have me carry you into the shower and bathe you in your dress.” I informed. Happy I found
LISAI giggled and continued sobbing. "You would wish you never said that." I nibbled on his nipple that was closest to reach, damping the fabric of his dress. He laughed, the movement caused the rise and fall of his chest. "Alright, let the love birds be.” Alpha Reid dismissed the crowd as they moved to the dining area and began digging into all of the delicious meals they saw. The aroma of them made my stomach growl and brought me yet another mocking delight. We were left in our world and I was allowed to soar crazily. Conan, my mate, and my alpha outdid himself. My alpha, I blushed. And so did my grandfather. No matter how much I say a big thank you, it won't be enough to express my gratitude. By the end of the party, it was late already. People went back home and those that were quite familiar with Alpha Reid stayed behind. Some crazy lots went home with the food that time couldn't make them enjoy. “Your room is ready Lady Lisa and Alpha Conan.” A maid informed from behi
LISA The blissful moment made me forget I had a fractured foot. In Conan’s arms, I felt protected. And in the warmth of them, my whole world is contained from the start to the finish. Gently, I pulled him to myself and laid my head on his chest, listening to the symphony of his heartbeat, which was more melodious and alluring to my soul, than the soft music in the background. He stroked my hair and pressed a soft feather-like kiss on my forehead, smoothing it afterward. I sighed softly, and I enjoyed every bit of his. The feel of his soft lips on my bare skin. Delightful. Even though I knew I had this sexy beast all to myself, or that I was also aware that forever he's mine, it still felt unbelievable. And I can't seize to be amazed whenever I think of it. Slowly, I sniffed him in, his masculine scent stood out in the crowd. The thought of having this smell on me for the longest makes me blush. And for the rest of my days, I would wear his scent with my shoulders high.
