And THE MARKING IS DONE. One chapter would be out today, but now that all the truth is out, it is time for action, no? Don't forget to vote, comment, and leave a review. Bye, bye.
Aurora:I woke up to Dante running his finger on my bare back, drawing random circles and patterns on it.I had no idea when I dozed off, but I knew that it wasn’t long ago as Dante was still laying on the bed with me, naked, as our skins touched.The mark on his neck was bruised and I knew that mine was too, however, I didn’t mind at all. Not one bit actually.“Hi” I said, raising myself to look at him. He smiled, and looking down at me, he pulled me closer to kiss me. His kiss was gentle, loving even, and cupping my cheek, he ran his finger over my jaw gently before pulling away.“Hey” he said, making me smile “how are you feeling?”“A bit sore, my neck is definitely sore, but I wouldn’t change that for anything” I said, truly meaning it. His gentleness always seems to surprise me, especially since I knew that being an Alpha and being bigger and heavier than I was, he could easily crush me; however, he always seemed to treat me like a jewel that he didn’t want to scratch.He touched
Dante:“Dante, for the millionth time, where are you taking me?” Aurora asked, trying to remove my hands from her eyes. I chuckled and kissed her neck, stopping her from doing so. “Patience, neonata. I didn’t know you as impatient, but either way, we’re almost there” I said, shaking my head at her. The two of us were walking through the pack’s grounds, and I wanted to take her to a stream that I thought she’d like. The surrounding was filled with flowers, and different small animals that we sometimes tended to chase when we’ve shifted. We’d never really kill them, but I knew for fact that we scared the little things.“I am not one for surprises”“I noticed, but you’ll have to get used to them”“Dante D’Angelo…”“Yes, neonata?” I teased, acting innocent. The sun had already set a while ago, but the fireflies would be out shortly, and this was one of the main reasons why I chose to bring her here at night. That, and the fact that she was asleep throughout most of the morning, trying to
Giovanni: “We’re yet to manage tracing her, but I asked at work and they’re in Spain for a business meeting” Nicolas said, entering the office. I chuckled and shook my head at his ignorance. I knew for fact that they weren’t there, Aurora wouldn’t have deactivated her phone if she was. “I don’t care what you have to do, Nicolas, I want to know where the fuck she is. If she is with Dante, then I want to know where they are going with that fucking pendant” I said, glaring at him. He raised an amused eyebrow at me, and shook his head at my behavior. The man really didn’t know who he was challenging or trying to fuck with, did he? “I believe that your mating son gave it to you? At least, that’s what you told me?” “The pendant he gave is not the real one” I said, getting up from the chair that I was sitting on. I was at his house. The house where we kept HIM, and now it was time to pay the man a little visit. Maybe this time, he would break loose when he knows that his daughter could e
Aurora: “What’s going on?” I asked, watching as Dante smirked at his phone. He smiled and set his phone down on the dresser beside me before wrapping his arm around my waist as the two of us lay on bed “Giovanni just traced your ‘phone’” “And you’re happy about that?” I asked, frowning in confusion. “Yes, because he believes that you’re at Marbella” Dante said, making my eyes wide in surprise “I had my men link the IP number to another connection line, a random one, and it keeps changing every few hours without changing the image of the IP” “Talk about deceitful” I teased, laying my head on his chest. The fact that today was my birthday and that I was marked on the very same day made my heart skip a beat. This was the first time that something special happened on the day that I was born since my father’s death, and knowing that I would forever remember this day as the day when I felt somewhat whole by knowing that I had someone that I could call mine, I couldn’t help but be happy
Dante:I put my hand on my mate’s, squeezing it gently.“Breathe, neonata” I whispered to her, motioning for her to take a deep breath. She inhaled and exhaled based on my pattern, and pulling her closer to me, I wrapped my arms around her, hugging her tightly.“Dante…”“You’re okay, neonata” I whispered, kissing the crown of her head. She fisted my shirt, her heart raced, and her hands shook as she tried to control the power surge that she felt.“Dante, we just saw the galaxy…”“I believe that is why they chose twenty-six winters of age as the right time to see such power” I said, stopping my beauty. I was thirty, and witnessing that without the surge of power that followed was intense; therefore, I wasn’t really surprised by Aurora’s reaction.“Yeah, I don’t think that it is an enough age for that either” she said, pulling away from the hug to look me in the eye. I chuckled and kissed her forehead before getting down to pick the compass from the floor. I handed it to her, this time,
Aurora: “You do realize that Nicolas has told Giovanni that you’re my mate, right? The two of us…” “Yes, he did, and tricking Giovanni would be a bit hard. The man was the master of deceit and lies, and not to mention the fact that he was a ruthless killer who literally had no heart. But I figured that we can trick an easier prey” Dante said, stopping me as the two of us walked out of the basement. We were both stopped by Angelina and Gabriella who stood in front of the door, waiting for us to leave, and taking a step back, I was stopped by Dante who put his hand on my lower back “I didn’t expect the two of you to be awake” “We initially weren’t, but the power surge that left this room had everyone waking up” Angelina said, crossing her arms over her chest “I can assume that you managed to open your compass” “The compass has found its guardian, and it opened itself” Dante said, running his finger over my lower back. I looked at my mate who gave me a small nod of assurance “and I be
Dante: “Fuck…” I hissed, wrapping my fingers around my mate’s hair, pulling it up in a makeshift ponytail as she sucked me off. Bobbing her head to take me in her mouth, making a low moan escape my lips. Her hand stroked what she couldn’t fit in her mouth, occasionally lowering them to my balls, squeezing them gently, making my eyes roll to the back of my head. Her teeth gently grazed on my cock as she pulled away completely to swirl her tongue on my tip, causing my body to shudder. She looked at me, and biting her bottom lip, I cupped her cheeks and pulled her to stand up as I connected my lips with hers. I lowered my hand down her body, and spreading her legs a little, I rubbed her clit, drawing circles of eight as I turned her on. She moaned, her body reacting to my touch, and moving from her lips, I moved to her neck, kissing it, knowing that this would most probably be the last night we had peace for a while. The two of us were heading back tomorrow, and knowing the challenges
Aurora: “Tyler?” I said, smiling at the sight of the man as I entered the café. Making sure to remind myself that I needed to act as normally as possible before he turned to look at me. Nicolas, who was working on cleaning the table, smiled at me and wrapped his arms around me as I approached him, hugging me tightly. I hugged him back just as tight, fighting the urge of snapping his neck here and now, reminding myself of Angelina’s words and there was also the fact that we were at a HUMANS café. Killing him in front of them wouldn’t end well. “Aurora, how are you? When did you come back?” He asked, looking at me. I smiled back at him, walking with him as he guided me toward one of the tables that he was done with. Dante and I came home an hour ago, but having taken a different route, the man wasn’t aware of my presence, and I was thankful for that, because he would have called if he did, and the last thing I wanted was for him to notice that I still kept my phone off. Dante and I pl
Leonardo:Fifteen years ago:“Leo, you shouldn’t be disrespecting your Alpha!” Angelina said, snapping at me. I had to fight letting out a low growl at the woman who wouldn’t even listen to me. The fact that she just assumed that I was disrespecting him simply because I was responding to him was something that I couldn’t get my head around, but then again, as mom always told me, he was her son, and I wasn’t. “I did not disrespect him! He was the one who yelled at me” I snapped, making mom growl in warning. And that was when I snapped “why don’t you ask me what happened? Why did you just assume that I disrespected him? He left ME to be bullied while he went back to Elena, and I asked why he didn’t help”“Would he have left his little sister to get hurt?” Angelina asked “the girl is six, and SHE was the one who was bullied, if you had defended her, it is because it is your duty. If that is something that you cannot get inside your head, why are you considering yourself her older brothe
Dante: “Are you sure that this is the first thing you want to do after being away from home for the past month?” I asked Alessandro who smirked as he crossed his arms over his chest. He looked at mom who smiled and nodded, knowing that he would be coming to her when he was done. “Yes, I have a few things to catch up on later, but for now, there is a little mosquito that I want to get rid of” he said, making me chuckle. I nodded and Alessandro, Nicolas, and I walked toward the cells. I knew that Aurora was in the house making us something to eat before I came, and we would be having the first family dinner together, as literally one family, for the first time since Alessandro was shot. Alpha Sebastian, who has something that he wants to tell Nicolas and I, was also here. Thankfully, we had an idea about what he was going to tell us, but being an Alpha, and Elena’s brothers above all, he knew that he needed to speak to us first before proceeding with anything. Seeing as I had no reaso
Eva: I stared at Madam Clara who was holding my child in her arms, trying to convince myself that this was not just a dream, and I won’t wake up not finding my son in front of me. “I named him Marcellus, Marcel for short” she said “I remember you telling me that you wanted to name him that when you were first pregnant if the baby was a boy” “How?” I asked, trying to stop my tears from falling from my eyes. Maria, who was sitting beside me, wrapped her arm around me as she pulled me to her chest, trying to comfort me. “Alpha Sebastian got us out that night. It turns out he lived in the same building at the time, and just as he was trying to escape the fire, he heard our voices. He broke the door and came inside. I don’t even know how he managed to get us out without getting any of us killed. But I remember waking up around a month or so later, with him holding Marcel in his arms, and looking at me in the hospital bed. I had lost consciousness during the fire” she said, making my he
Aurora: “Aurora, he’s opening his eyes, you can relax” Dante said, wrapping his arms around me from the back, stopping me from pacing as we waited in the waiting room. “What?” I asked, turning around to face him, hoping that this wasn’t something that I just imagined. “Your dad is waking up, the nurse just told me. They’re taking him to his room now, then we can go and see him” he said, and wrapping my arms around him, I hugged him tightly as tears fell from my eyes before I could stop them. Having changed the wedding dress to clothes that Maria bought for me, I was now wearing sweatpants and a white crop top and Dante’s suit jacket. He and Nicolas rolled their shirt sleeves up, and we’ve been here throughout the night, waiting for good news to come. “It means he’s fine, right? They’re not going to need to send him to the ER again…?” “Aurora, breathe, neonata” he whispered to me, stopping me “he is fine. The bullet didn’t touch his heart, and the lost blood, they donated to him,
Dante: I smiled as the doors opened, revealing my mate who was walking out wearing her beautiful white wedding dress. Alessandro had his arm looped with hers, and the smile on her face could be seen a mile away under the beautiful white veil she wore. Alessandro’s eyes met mine and he smiled, both happy and proud of the two of us for making such a choice. I knew that he was also happy that he, at least, got to have a chance of taking one role of a father, considering that he had lost so much time and had missed so much in his daughter’s life. Mom’s eyes met mine and the smile of proudness that was on her face was one that I would never forget, and looking at Nicolas who stood beside me as my best man, I smiled, thankful for the man who has entered my life so suddenly but changed so much about me. My brother, someone that I knew that I could at least lean on when I felt weak, and the best part was, he didn’t do it for anything in return, for once, I met a person who was being genuin
Aurora: My heart raced against my ribcage as I walked out of the dressing room, wearing my wedding dress. Anastasia, Eva, and Elena, who were my bridesmaids, gasped when they saw me. And catching sight of my reflection, I couldn’t help the tears that formed in my eyes. I never thought that I would ever live to see this moment, especially being a wolf, we didn’t really have weddings. “No, no, you are not going to ruin your makeup with your tears” Eva said, wiping my tears from my eyes before they fell. Her eyes met mine and I smiled, wrapping my arms around her, thankful for the help that she and the girls showed me. These were things that a girl mostly did with her mother and sisters, I was blessed with sisters of choice. “Thank you for today” I said, pulling away from the hug to look at the girls “all of you, I swear I don’t know what I would have done if it weren’t for you being there for me” Elena and Anastasia hugged me, and I smiled as tears fell from my eyes. And catchin
Nicolas: “Well, tonight went well” Eva said, smiling as we entered the house. The two of us have been sharing a house at the pack, mostly because we were growing closer with each passing day and I was growing both more attached to and protective over her. “Yes, thankfully” I said, running my fingers through my hair as I looked at her, admiring her. Her curves made my blood travel south where I really didn’t need it to right now. Having found her, I was sure not to touch another woman so as not to come home with a love bite or a female’s scent, fearing that she would grow upset. And respecting the fact that she might not want to rush things, especially after how she lost her mate. I wanted her to be sure that she wanted to be with me. My heart raced, and turning toward the room, I knew to dismiss myself before she caught the boner, and plus, it was not like she was going to say anything else anyway. Unless Nico Sandro was around us, she rarely ever opened a conversation; therefore,
Dante: “Dante!” Aurora laughed, trying to escape my grasp as I tickled her. The two of us were laying on bed, naked, need I add, and I was growing a little excited for my mate. “Yes, mi amor?” I asked, biting her earlobe, my voice above a whisper, making sure that my breath hit her neck. She giggled, trying to muffle her moan, of course, that didn’t work. I purred, and lowering my face to her neck, I kissed her sweet spot, gently sucking on it before turning her around, making her lay on her back as I hovered over her body. Her eyes met mine, and I smiled, running my finger over her cheek before I leaned in to kiss her. My beauty, having turned her on, spread her legs for me to settle between them, and smirking, I did as she desired. Her hips moved upwards, grinding against me, and it was seconds later that I pulled away from her lips to rest my forehead against hers and position myself at her entrance. She gasped before her back arched as I thrust into her, making sure to be as
Giovanni: “The fancy proposal of ‘The Billionaire D’Angelo’ to his lover and girlfriend Aurora” I read out loud, rolling my eyes as I read the news. I tapped my fingers on the armrest twice as the picture of Dante on his knee in front of Aurora as she looked at the ring as he placed it in her finger. I folded the newspaper that I was reading before throwing it aside, and shaking my head at how things got to where they were; however, it wouldn’t be long before their perfect love story ended. I just needed to find the perfect timing to do it. “Boss, she is losing it again” Santos, my new second hand, said, entering my office. The man did not bother knocking on the door, not that he needed to, the door was wide open considering that no one, aside from him, dared approach this room to begin with. I sighed and got up from my chair, picking up the newspaper and taking it with me, knowing that it would be the perfect chance, before heading toward Gabriella’s room where she was locked an
