Ivy

I let the man, whose name I still don’t know, carry me inside the huge house located in the middle of the woods. For some reason, his presence calms me down. I’m not as scared of him as I was with Jake and the other man who supposedly is my father.

This man doesn’t scare me.

And I don’t know why.

The strangest thing, though, is how my senses are… sharper. I heard everything Dr. Leon told the man. He even called him ‘his majesty’. Is this man a king or something? Why would Dr. Leon call him like that?

They kept talking about some weird biting thing, some mark, some alpha, and other strange things I don’t understand.

I really hope someone will explain it to me.

Hopefully, it’ll be this man that promised to ‘take care’ of me. He’s the only one, apart from Dr. Leon, that I think I can trust. He’s not like Jake, and I think that’s what puts me at ease the most.

“Love, would you like to see the house? I can take you on a tour if you want.” The man smiles warmly, making my heart beat fas

    LorenzoI almost growl as I recall my painful past. I’ve never told anyone about it.Ivy stays quiet, just listening attentively to my tale.“The man decided that if his son is what it takes for the woman to help him become who he wants to be, then so be it. He swore to the witch he’d let her have his son if she did what she promised.Of course, the man had no idea how the witch would do what he wanted her too. He didn’t know what she was going to do to help him achieve his goal. He was so hungry for power he didn’t care about the price for it.The witch did fulfill her promise. She somehow got to the emperor and killed him. She then had his sons give up their rights to the throne in favor of the man’s son. The son that didn’t want the power to begin with.The witch betrayed the man she was supposed to help because she was enamored with his son. She decided that the man didn’t deserve to rule, so she made the boy she was in love with get the throne. She then poisoned the young boy’s f

    IvyThis is so sad...Lorenzo went through so much. I feel so bad for him.I hate that I can’t talk yet, but I can express myself in a different way. I have this need to comfort Lorenzo, to show him that I’m not afraid. Not of him.After a while, I notice my position on Lorenzo’s legs and I already feel my face burn in embarrassment. This man bared his soul to me and here I am being touchy. I try to scramble off his lap, but one pained growl stops all my movements.“Please, stay.” He looks at me with sad golden eyes and I have a feeling he misunderstood my intention.I quickly get the notepad. ‘You must be uncomfortable’. I show him the page, getting only a warm smile in response.“Not at all, love. I love having you close. Remember how I said the mates are separated halves of the same soul? – I nod silently – When they meet, the wolf has this unbearable urge to be close to his mate, to protect them, to be with them. The stronger the wolf, the stronger the need. The wolf's mate, unles

    LorenzoI watch as Lia walks out from Ivy’s room, eager to hear what my mate thinks about everything. I called Lia last night and told her about Ivy’s situation, asking her to see my mate. Of course, I offered to arrange transport for her but she quickly refused, saying it’d take too long. I proved her wrong when I had my private jet ready within an hour, along with the car that picked her up from the airport.After Lia arrived, along with Blake, she immediately went to see Ivy, leaving me and her man in the living room.“Oh shit…” Lia breathes out, falling onto the couch tiredly, having talked to my mate for the last few hours. I knew Ivy doesn’t remember her and I warned Lia about this, but from the moment the two girls were left alone, all I could hear was Lia’s voice and Ivy’s quick scribbling on the paper.I understood that my mate was in good hands, so I decided to fill Blake in everything that went on with my Ivy. He was surprised, to say the least. He told me that for those mo

    IvyThe longer I stay with Lorenzo, the better I feel. It’s bizarre, but every morning when I wake up with him in the bed, I feel less and less pain.Today I can even breathe normally!Of course, the bite on my neck is not healed yet, but the swelling went down considerably and my throat is not so tight anymore.It was a struggle to get used to speaking after so long, but I got used to it after a while. I’m currently sitting with this girl, Lia, who Lorenzo said is my good friend. She’s been staying with me all the time for the last few days, telling me everything she knew about me. It sounds weird to learn about myself from someone, but I can tell I can trust this girl.She’s so different than me and spending time with her is really refreshing.“What do you think about this?” Lia shows me a pretty flowery dress, smiling at me warmly. She’s been trying to find me some clothes that I could wear around the house instead of the usual sweatpants and shirts I was forced to borrow from Lore

    LorenzoThere are no words to describe what I feel as I casually dine with my mate, at last having her near me with no fear. It was deeply saddening that her initial reaction to finding out what I am, but now she doesn’t seem as bothered by it. I know it’s probably because I’m one of the very few people she knows right now, but it doesn’t change the fact that I can finally earn my mate’s trust and maybe love.Over the last months both me and Onyx have been going crazy without Ivy near us, but now that she’s finally here with us, I haven’t even heard as much as a whine from my wolf. He’s only purring contentedly in my mind, basking in the warm feeling of having our mate with us every night. He even went as far as waking up in the middle of the night just to stare at Ivy sleeping in our bed.Because of that little shit, I couldn’t even get enough rest.But I’m not mad. If I could, I would just spend every second of my life staring at my mate as she is resting comfortably, pressed agains

    IvyI stay in Lorenzo’s warm embrace for what feels like forever, just soaking up his warmth and taking in his addicting scent. He always smells so good. I don’t know what perfume he uses, but I just want to bottle it up and smell forever. Had he not been sleeping with me at night, I would've probably looked into what perfume he uses and sprayed my pillow with it. It's so comforting.I slowly lean back from Lorenzo’s chest, having to force myself to take my face out the crook of his neck. I want to stay buried there as long as possible.“I want you to mark me.” I croak hoarsely, my throat feeling tight with emotion. I feel so bad for this man. He went through so much and he still manages to gift me with affection and patience.“Are you sure?”I smile at his sweet worry. “Yes, I’m sure.”“Let’s take you to the bedroom.” He moves to get up from the bench, but I stop him with my hand.“No. Please. Can’t we do it here? It’s so beautiful in here…” I plead. Lorenzo only nods silently, strok

    OnyxI keep my mate caged in my arms, taking in her sweet scent greedily. Lorenzo, that damn human, kept me away for too long. I crave my mate as much as he does, yet he still didn’t let me out.Guess what?I’m the one in control now.I will be the one to mark our mate.I will be the one that takes care of her.She’s mine now.“Wolfie?” My little mate asks cutely, making me chuckle quietly. I’ve never been called that, but if that’s her wish, I can be a ‘Wolfie’.“Yes, my queen?”“Queen?” She scrunches her nose adorably as she giggles at the name.“Yes. You’re my mate. That makes you a queen.”“Why?” She implores curiously. I nuzzle my nose further into the crook of her neck, taking in her scent as I speak.“Because we’re the king and you’re ours.” I trace the slender column of her neck with my lips, peppering feathery kisses all over her soft skin. I can hear the change in my queen’s heartbeat and breathing and I growl lowly when I realize she likes what I’m doing to her.“I want to

    IvyI wake up in horrible pain and I immediately know Lorenzo’s not with me. The spot he would occupy every night is cold and neatly made. He didn’t sleep here. “Hey girl. How are you feeling?” I turn slowly to the source of the voice, only to be met with Lia sitting in the armchair by the window with a book in her hands.“Were you here all this time?” I ask quietly, turning over to face her. My neck still hurts a little, but I’m feeling better than yesterday.“Yeah. Your man left last night, saying you’re getting into heat and he can’t bear to be here.” She shrugs casually, but only one thing catches my attention. She said ‘your man’. “He’s not my man.” I mumble quietly.“Isn’t he though? You’re his mate and he’s yours. You guys share one soul, as weird as it sounds.” She says as she puts away her book and gets up from her seat. I watch silently as she walks to the closet and brings out a loose thin pajama.“Let’s get you ready for the day.” She smiles when she notices my confused

It’s been over two hours since he started giving Alex his blood, along with two other guards, but there’s still no improvement.If anything, it seems to have gotten worse.“Why don’t we go get something to eat? It doesn’t look like anything’s happening…” Blake suggests after a while.“Can you bring me something? I’d rather stay here to watch over him.” Lia glances at her man over her shoulder, getting a smile from him before he kisses her softly and carefully gets off the bed.Once Blake is gone from the clinic, Cade turns to the human girl. “I don’t think your treatment helped. – he tells her seriously, disconnecting the tube from his arm – He’s starting to stink.”“Sti

    Ivy ‘Stay in the house, my love. We’re coming back.’ I hear Ren’s frantic voice in my head and I immediately go rigid.“Ren is coming back. I think something’s wrong.” I tell my friends, panicking slightly.Before Lia or Blake can even say anything, Cade and Vince storm inside and take a protective stance in front of us, shielding us from the door and window.“What’s going on?” Lia questions suspiciously.“They found Alex. – Leo says as he gets up from his seat and goes to the front door – They’re bringing him in.”Alex?! They found him? I’m on pins and needles as I wait for my Ren and Thea to come back, nearly bursting in anticipation. I catch Hunter and Leo walk outside, but I’m stopped from following them by none other than Skye.“Trust me, it’s better if you

    Onyx Lorenzo kept me away for way too long. Technically, Ivy is already ours, but I still wanted to claim her myself, which is why I couldn’t let my chance pass when it finally came.I was afraid that I would be too rough with our mate, but she seemed as eager as me, reciprocating my passion with equal fervor.Though I still wore her out.

    IvyThe house that supposedly belongs to Jake is nothing like I expected. I don’t know why, but I honestly thought he lived in a dark, scary castle with dead trees around it, not a beautiful mansion with a gorgeous, although neglected, garden. This is really shocking.I keep a tight hold on Ren’s hand as he leads towards the house, trying my best to not cringe when the men guarding the front door bow in greeting. I don’t think I’ll ever get used to this. Whenever Ren and I meet some wolves, they immediately bow down to us. It makes me really uncomfortable and embarrassed.Ren and I wait for the others to join us then go inside the house, heading straight to Jake’s office for whatever reason. I’m not sure what we’re looking for, but I trust Ren’s judgment.Once we’re inside, my man immediately gestures at everyone to take their seats at the long table, not even minding the

    LorenzoI notice my little queen rub her forehead tiredly as she thinks about everything that was revealed over the last few hours.“Tired, my love?” I ask her worriedly, getting a quiet sigh in response as Ivy leans her head against my chest.“Not really… It’s just so overwhelming. So much is happening and we still don’t have any answers.” She murmurs quietly and I rub her back comfortingly.“How long till we land?” Thea asks curiously.I check my watch quickly. “Almost two hours.”“Do you have any transport arranged to get us from the airport? I’m guessing we’re not running all the way to the pack.”“I do. I already talked to Cade. He’ll get some men to pick us all up from Hotchkiss. I have my private airport there.”“You have private airports all over the country, so I’m not

    IvyI don’t know when I fell asleep, but when I wake up I’m still in Ren’s arms on the comfortable bed on the plane. I snuggle closer to him, taking in his comforting scent. After hearing what Lia found out, I can’t help but be anxious.My mom is most likely the witch that wants to kill Ren. Then who’s my dad? If he was on it too then surely he must know about my mother’s real identity.No wonder they were pushing me to marry Jake. They were planning on getting me marked by him just so Ren would be weak.Where do I go from this?How do I get over the fact that the people I thought to be my parents were just keeping me for the sake of hurting the man I came to love?“What are you thinking, my love?” Ren asks quietly, stroking my hair in a soothing manner.“Who am I, Ren? Everything I’ve known was a lie, a conspiracy to kill you…” I w

    LorenzoIvy stays snuggled into me as she talks with Skye. I’m so glad she found a new friend that she can connect to. Since the girls are quite close in age, they might be able to spend many years together, centuries even.I saw Beast, sorry, Thea give Lia some book before the young human left to read it in peace in one of the bedrooms. It’s been a few hours since she left and I can tell that Blake is on the verge of blowing up. The longer he spends without his girl, the more agitated he is. Their connection is as admirable as it is weird.I feel my body tense up when I hear Lia crying in the bedroom before she rushes back to the rest of us, with her face stricken with tears and her body shaking terribly.Blake is the first to react. He shoots up from his seat and pulls his girl into his arms, letting her cry into his chest as he holds her.“I know everything! Everything!” Lia cries o

    Lia The moment we entered the plane, Thea asked to speak to me privately. Judging by her tone, it must be serious, so I didn’t say anything and simply joined her by the window.“I brought something for you. Well, Aiden did, but I was the one that asked him to get if for me. – She gets a small old-looking book from her backpack and lays it on the table between the seats – I believe this belonged to Thalia, but I can’t read it. I thought that maybe you, as a witch, can see what’s inside.”“What do you mean you can’t read it?” Blake questions quietly.“It’s not that I’m incapable of reading things, I'm not illiterate. I mean that I can’t read it because all I see are blank pages. It’s almost as if something is protecting the contents from being seen.”“And you think I will be able to see it? I don’t know anything

    IvyRen doesn’t even try to argue with me when I tell him I’m coming with him. It’s either because he knows it’s no use, or because he doesn’t want to leave me alone.“When do we leave?” I ask him quietly, nuzzling my cheek against his as I lean over him from behind. Usually it’s me being coddled, so it’s a nice change to be the hugger this time. I’m kneeling behind Ren’s back, with my arms wrapped around his neck as I snuggle into him.“As soon as possible. It’s going to take over twelve hours to get there, so the sooner we go, the better. Why don’t you pack your bag while I arrange the plane, hmm?” Ren suggests, taking my hand from his neck and placing a small kiss on the back of it.“Okay. And don’t stress too much, everything’s going to be okay.” I kiss his ear, feeling an inexplicable urge to reassure him.
