**Third-person POV**
Andrea strides towards Adrian, her feet so sure that even the most involved of dancers flee her path in the bar room. Her blond long hair flowed behind her, framing her pale skin. Blue eyes pierce him, but instead of holding him in place, her freezing eyes compel him to move forward.Though she is human, she moved with the grace of those more in touch with nature.
Adrian moves forward to meet her, moving through his pack members as if they weren't there. He grasps her hand and told her his name. Andrea, returned the favor, pulling him close. They exchanged breath, grinding closer and closer together, lust and something like fate surging through them.
Adrian had never felt like this for anyone before. He wanted to strip this woman bare, devour her and be devoured, own her and be owned. This woman could be everything, mate, lover,
a friend and all he knew was her name.It was enough.
Adrian maneuvered them outside to the semi-private alley behind the bar. He didn't want to share these first moments with Andrea with anyone else. She is tipsy as usual. Her estrogen was secreting more than usual.
He pushed Andrea against the wall, shoving her harder than he should have when playing with a human owing to the passion raging through him compelled. This thing between them made it feel like the night of the full moon, though that was a week off. But that playful thing, his human wolf, danced underneath his skin. He pulled back and grinned, knowing his eyes shown with that hint of inhumanity present in every werewolf.
Andrea didn't shrink, she returned his smile, still saying nothing, only raising a hand the caress Adrian's cheek.
Adrian turned his face towards it, savoring the texture of the calloused fingers. Heat engulfed him, he couldn't wait to feel those fingers on him, around him. He clutched the nape of Andrea's
neck and pulled her forward, capturing her lips in a harsh kiss.She tastes sweet and Adrian could never remember being more turned on in his life. He licked against Andrea's lips, groaning when she parted and their tongues tangled. Adrian felt himself
hardening, and with each delicious scrape of pressure as he and Andrea moved he felt catapulted up and up to higher planes of pleasure.Adrian nudged Andrea's legs apart with his knee, letting Andrea ride him as they continued to kiss. His hand grasped the bottom of Andrea's shirt, hiking it up so that he could feel her bare skin.
Andrea moaned as Adrian trailed his fingers in light caresses over her ribs, slowly moving higher and higher until his hand brushed against her bra.
Andrea pulled back gasping. Her hands worked at Adrian's shoulders, removing the jacket and revealing the gray tank top underneath. She ran her hands down Adrian's arms, feeling the well-defined muscle, kneading at it with each slow movement.
Adrian shivered.
Adrian reached behind Andrea's back and unhooked her bra then eased his hands under the now loose cups. He took one breast in hand, balancing the perfectly shaped orb in his hand. His
thump flicked over Andrea's hard nipple and Andrea moaned and kissed at his neck.Adrian did it again, twice in quick succession, and Andrea jumped a little, grinding down hard onto Adrian's leg.
Adrain's mouth felt too full, he kissed Andrea's neck, licking at the pulse as it jumped at his attention. He couldn't get enough of the salty-sweet taste of Andrea's skin and suck harder and harder. He felt Andrea's hand drift down and undo the button on his jeans, a hand sneaking lower until one of Andrea's fingers skimmed over the straining flesh of his erect cock.
With the shock of the contact, Adrian bit down harder than he wanted and heard Andrea's grasp, though this time from some mix of pleasure-pain. He tasted the smallest hint of metallic blood
and reared back in shock. Already the mark was an awful reddish/purple, evidence of play gone too far.Adrain collapsed simply and Andrea eased her to the ground and backed away. This was too much, he needed to get out of here. Everything had been going so well until that arc of blinding pain shot through Andrea. Blinding pain mixed with explosive pleasure. She whimpered and felt all of the tension and strength leave her body and her eyes drifted closed in the last moments as Adrain lowered her to the ground. If she had been conscious she would have tried to ask what the hell was going on, but those thoughts vanished several minutes later when she felt someone's hand jostle her awake.
The attractive man from earlier crouched in front of her, a little too close to her neck for her liking.
Had Adrian freaking bitten her?
Is he a vampire or something? If she wasn't so tired
Andrea would have smiled. Instead, she looked blankly at the man in front of her, too tired to even worry about his intentions."Are you alright?" He asked.
Andrea raised a hand to her head, changing at the last moment to feel the wound at the base of her neck, and winced when she touched the tender flesh.
"Yes, I think." She braced a hand on the wall behind her and tried to summon the energy to stand. But nothing came.
"Help me up?"
He stood and offered her a hand, hauling her up and helping to stabilize her. "Maybe a little too much to drink?" He suggested,
"You have a friend who can drive you home?"
"They're all busy," she lied, realizing it would not be a good idea to tell a stranger in the alley behind a bar that she had no friends in town.
"And I didn't drink anything. I'm fine."
And now that she was standing, she was feeling nothing other than a little bit of a headache.
Incredibly horny, but uninjured. Andrea and her escort walked back inside, Adrian had disappeared and so had his clique. Andrea's Account folder of work still sat at her table undisturbed. She scooped it up and headed for the parking lot, sliding into her car and pulling out on the road to head home.
Andrea walked into her small one-bedroom apartment and collapsed onto the bed, exhausted, barely remembering to set the alarm before going to sleep. Andrea couldn't get over what had come upon her.
Adrian drove all the way home with both hands on his car steering and his face upright and forward that he didn't get a glimpse of the fallen tree or the disturbing feeling of the jagged path of the galloping highway. On a very good day, Adrian would swerve his steering to avoid the bumps because he loves to have a smooth ride when he is returning home from the bar but this time he lacks the enthusiasm to do such. The stricken aspect is how he didn't frown at the disturbing bumps because his mind was on the lady had almost marked. He knew he wasn't himself while they were together. His wolf told him he found his mate but she seems to not feel a connection with Andrea as he wanted. The streets were quiet and seem like it is dead. The sounds he can hear are the leaves rustling in the breeze and the pitter-patter sounds of raindrops falling on the ground. Together, they compose a brilliant song of nature. No din from the high-school students, no irritating noise
He gestured for Murray to join him on the couch. Murray sat down close enough to touch. "Since when do you act like that? Panting after some human?" Adrian grabbed his hand, clutched it tight enough to hurt. But he didn't say anything," Andrea is not some human! Watch your words!" Adrian had no right to speak to him, to speak about Andrea, like that. But he had a point. One Adrian could not acknowledge. He loosened his grip but kept hold of his hand. "Is that why you came here, Murray?" Murray looked at him, leaning in slightly. Adrain stared into his bright green eyes and couldn't help but wish it had been Murray that had brought up those feelings in him. They had tried to make ago of it years before, and it had been fun, but there was none of that wildness that he had felt from the moment he laid eyes on Andrea. Andrea what? He didn't even know her last name and already he wanted to make room for her in his life. That was crazy.
Andrea got up with a headache the next morning, but her excitement for meeting a man who made her emotions run wide at her new job quickly overpowered it. While she got ready she assessed her bruised neck from the night before. And that's all it seemed to be, a very nasty bruise that covered several inches of the nape of her neck. So whatever had happened last night, it hadn't been as weird as she thought. She kept telling herself that as she covered the mark with concealer and foundation, hoping that it blended well enough with her skin then she would raise no eyebrows because no one will ever know such a thing happened to her.Just to be safe, and free from the busy body at her workplace she wore a high-necked collared shirt and buttoned it to the top. On final assessment, she looked unquestionably professional and not at all like she'd let an unbelievably gorgeous man chomp on her neck in an alley behind a bar. She thought though if he turned out to be
But with the way things were going she will have to spend the next few days or weeks trying to reach the man who made her heart skip and left her with bruises on her neck. She loved every minute they had but she didn't want to have another one not because she didn't like to but she feared falling in love with a man she didn't know much about for the second time. The first man, Morgan Freeman, had left her broken and Andrea thought it would be wise she was careful with her heart. She lay her hand on her chin all this while for more than 3 minutes. "What are you thinking about?" Joyce asked. "No, I am fine and not thinking about anything." "Andrea, come on. You are not fine. I would like to help if you want me to, just that the boss had given the new regulations concerning submitting your work permit license if not I would have done otherwise with your case. I hope you understand." Joyce checked her watch. "It's about time for lunch, how about we go eat at
The forest once more came to her vision and that howling wolf, the trees, the dirt. Everything was new, everything was so familiar. And that sizzle of awareness rushed through her. Adrian, he was here. She scent every speck of his wolf. It left that sweet scintillating flavor in her. But the forest stood empty around her. She walked on, leaves crunching under her feet. And there he stood, shirtless, his jeans hanging low on his hips he looked over the rest of the forestfrom where the hill dropped down below him. She froze in her tracks, uncertain now, and knowing that the next steps she took could change everything. Her quads were not letting her any know if it would be a good idea she ran from him when their sight meet. Doubt dominated her. But this was just a dream, wasn't it? What could a dream change?He turned around and his eyes glowed that near yellow color before settling back to brown. "What are you doing here?" Awe intert
Andrea knew the coming week will create a huge impact on her life. Especially when she knows she will be meeting a man who she doesn't know much about his identity and character but the first time they met she felt like making out eith him all night. The bound was so strong and she couldn't explain how she felt or why she felt so about him.She knew things wouldn't get better unless she gets back her license. When she was leaving home this morning age had managed t check her text and found that Joyce, her new supervisor at work has decided to give her till Tuesday to get her license filed in the office before she can resume office properly. The has host today beige she embarks on the trip to met Adrian at Berge. She does not know she the town is situated where north or south of Elkton. She just thought of using Google Maps to locate there when by tomorrow. Adrian didn't bother to put a call through to her as a reminder. She was worried he didn't even sound like he felt
Divorce. I need to run away..far away from him. " I am sick of all this," I replied, trying to sound cold while I and heating up.He raised his brow. His jaw ticked. "What is making you sick? I can change that." He stood up and stepped closer to me."Stop it. Don't come near me!" I yelled. I stood my ground even though I want to cry and tell him that I caught him cheating on me all this while he claimed he loved me. I wish I could tell him to his face, but no I have to leave him. I will tell him everything by mobile text. He would spank me if I do here. And I have had enough trouble knowing Morgan Freeman."You can't do anything about it," I told him. "I have already made my decision. And that is divorce." I made sure I had enough conviction in my words so he won't see that am wavering. He walks closer until his body was only inches apart from mine. I can hear his heavy breathing while I tried to remain calm. I squint my eyes. It wa
The night shadows were becoming more evident than when I arrived there. I looked at my mobile the network was gone. Have I lost track of my path to the Berge? I tried to dial Adrain's line and it didn't ring. Poor network area surely.Wandering into a lonely street to see if I can get a payphone to make a call at the moment. I giraffe to see a small kiosk head of me with dim lamp outside. This seems to be a different street contacted to the I had packed my car. The street is quiet and seems like it is dead. The sounds I can hear are the leaves rustling in the breeze, and the pitter-patter sounds of raindrops falling on the ground, I had lost track on my google map. I sighed."The rogues! They are coming, Run! Run! Young lady." The fretful words I heard. I ran as fast as I could. The rogues are running after me because they claimed I trespassed their territory and the truth is, I am only passing. I want to get to a man who had my license. I found myself running in a for
"Do you like it?" Jeff asked me as we watched the sunset from the lake. "We must go on more vacations in the future." I smiled and shrugged. "Will you waste a lot of money on a fake marriage with me?" I asked him, chuckling weakly. " I don't want to make you poor." I kidded and he laughed. "Make me poor?" he asked in disbelief. He held my hand and pulled me closer to him. "Do you think several simple vacations would make me broke?" His eyes were on me, reflecting the light from the setting sun. I shrugged. "Did you think I would be worth all the money you're spending?" "Why won't you be?" he asked me back. "You're my wife.""But not your real mate," I countered. "I am only here for you for six months. You should go on and hurry up in finding your rightful mate before our contract expires." I wanted to be very honest with him because sometimes, I feel like he's doing too much for me. Even though my heart is beginning to long for him. Morgan, Adrian I have met b
Dior was smirking at me when Jeff and I came back to the packhouse. Apparently, we won't be having a honeymoon because Jeff is busy with his company and with some matters involving his pack. It's okay with me. It's not like I want us to be alone on a vacation. Thinking about what could happen sends shivers to my spine."How was your wedding night?" she asked me while munching on an apple.I sighed and sat beside her on the couch. "It was okay, Ireplied nonchalantly as I stretched my hand on my lap.I heard her sighing before folding her left knee to face me. "What do you mean it was okay?" she asked eagerly. "Did he…" she wriggled her brows at me.I pursed my lips and sighed deeply. "No," Hied. "So please, let's just go around the property today. Are you busy? "I wanted to change the topic because there is no way I am going to open up about what happened for the past two days. I already know that a fish gets caught in the mouth and I am nowher
Jeff eyes are on mine while he reached for the shower knob. I was still dizzy and unstable. But I didn't know if it was the alcohol that's taking over or just him.I stood naked in front of him but instead of feeling awkward, I feel excited. He's topless in front of me, showing his majestic, perfectly-sculptured muscles, it's not the first time that I'm seeing him like this but the mere fact that he's only inches from me while naked ignited a fire in my system.I swallowed hard when my eyes trailed down on the huge bulge on his bovers. It's already making me curious as to how huge it would be when it's freed.I stopped. saint. What am I thinking?I mentally shook my head while scolding myself before looking back into Jeff's eyes. He's staring at me intently like I am the only thing worth looking at. His gaze is so intense that I can feel my knees giving up on me anytime soon."Are you okay?" he asked in a hoarse whisper before turning the shower on
The reception was fun. Everyone was congratulating us and my facial muscles were so tired from too much smiling. Jeff was just nodding at everyone.I didn't expect the reception to be like this. The garden in Jeff's mansion looked so different from the garden I fixed. There were white curtains everywhere. There were also sunflowers in every table. It's wonderful.I looked at Jeff who was already glaring at me because I am holding a wine glass. I frowned at him, "It's our wedding reception. And besides, it's only one glass and I'm even with you."He leaned to my ear. "The last time you were drunk with two glasses." He reminded me with conviction like he's scolding me.I rolled my eyes and drank the whole glass. "Nothing willhappen tonight," I assured him. He smirked. "Oh, I wish there will be," he retorted before drinking all the wine. I glared at him and he just shrugged. He looked at the guests and started smiling and nodding at them.We had a few
"You look stunning," Dior said as she looked at me from the mirror. She's holding a make-up brush while smiling at me widely, proud of what she's done to my face and my hair. She's my maid of honor and she was also in charge of my hair and makeup. Aside from being a designer, she also has a certification on makeup and hairstyling. She trained for months and had done side jobs related to this. I stared at myself in the mirror, couldn't believe that I look like this. The make-up wasn't excessive and exaggerated but it's just enough to accentuate all of my features. My hair - is in a French braid with loose strands gelled together, falling on either side of my face. "I cannot wait to see you in your wedding gown," she giggled as she fixed her make-up. She only left her brush and loose powder for touch up later on. "Amanda is waiting for you. Go and wear your gown." She looked at her wristwatch." It's almost three. You have to be there at three-thirty or Ambrose will
Dior sighed. "Babe, you just drank two glasses. Don't tell me you're already drunk?" she asked in a disappointed tone. I shook my head. "I'm just dizzy." I replied as I felt my whole world spinning around. "Shit," she cussed. "Alpha's going to kill me." I heard her say before pulling me up to take me somewhere. I was struggling to walk properly because of my wavy vision. I just realized that we're inside the restroom when I heard the water running down the faucet with Dior trying to wipe my face with a wet handkerchief. I took the cloth from her and did it myself.. "I can't believe someone would get tipsy over two glasses of wine, Wine!" she exasperated. "I never thought I'd meet someone with a low alcohol tolerance rate as you." I groaned and gargled. "Are we going home?" I asked her. She rolled her eyes before dialing a number. "Hello, Jeff," she started and my eyes widened. I wanted to stop her but I am still dizzy and I still can't stand strai
"Mom is meeting us the same cafe you met with Samantha later," he said, changing the topic. "Do you want to stop over somewhere before we go there?"I shrugged. "I have nothing in mind," I replied as ! continued eating. "What about you?" I asked him."I want to check the house first," he said. "I have been absent from work for days, too. Maybe we should drop by the office first before heading over the cafe."I nodded. "Sure." There's nothing I can do to stop him anyway. And besides, there's nothing wrong with it. He's probably taken a leave at work and he needs to prepare for our wedding. Who knows what could be happening in their company? And that's what we did. After eating breakfast, we immediately drove to his mansion. I went to check on the flowers in the garden. It's been two days since I last came here so I decided to water them quickly. I worked so hard to keep them alive. They can't die on me now. I had fun talking to them sometimes.Jeff came do
Rosemary was humming when we were inside the car. "Did you have anything in mind for your wedding dress?" she asked me."I shook my head when in reality, I have already thought about how my wedding would be like-simple and intimate. I only want a few people, the only people who mean so much to me and my groom, to come and witness it. We'll eat, celebrate and play at the reception. No elegant dresses. No expensive gifts. Just me, my groom, our family, and friends.I smiled weakly and wondered if Rosemary would consider my opinion.She smiled and held my hand, "I know this is all so quick to you and I'm sorry that I hadn't given you the room to breathe and process all of these in your system. But I'm sure that my son will treat you well," she told me. "He may look strong and authoritative but he's a sweet boy.I bit my lip and nodded. I know that Jeff is a sweet boy. I've seen him since the day he helped me. Something must have changed in the way I look at
I sighed and looked at myself in the mirror. I am wearing an orange silk nightgown for the first time in my life because that's the only thing that I saw in the closet, aside from some branded dresses.I pouted as I walked out of the bathroom. Jeff was watching the television while sitting on the bedroom bench. He immediately turned to me and stared at me from head to foot.My cheeks immediately flushed, causing me to look down to my feet. "S-sorry. This is the only thing I saw in the closet." I started to explain."That's okay." I heard him say. "Dionessa didn't know what to buy so she just bought what she usually uses." I raised my gaze and looked at him. "You can go with her to shop tomorrow for the clothes you like."I nodded and walked towards the bed reluctantly.I stared at it and wondered if I'm sleeping in here. I stared at the couch and I
