Chapter 16Irena's POVI gulped as she kept banging on the door, I gripped Ethan's hand tightly. If she found him in my room, I would be dead. "Open this door now before I do!" My mom's voice was stern and unforgiving. I looked at Ethan, and he hugged me tightly before kissing me. At that moment, I felt alive, like nothing else mattered. But my moment of bliss was short-lived as my mom's chanting started, and Ethan leaped out of the window.I rushed to the window and watched as Ethan morphed into his wolf form in mid-air before hitting the ground. It was a rough fall, and I could feel it. Ethan ran away, disappearing into the night.My mom burst into the room, her eyes flashing with anger. "What are you doing, Irena?" she demanded."Nothing, leave me alone," I said, lying on my bed and hugging my pillows that still had Ethan's scent. I hoped my mom wouldn't notice the smell."Don't you dare lock the door again," my mom warned before storming out of the room.I lay there for a few mom
CHAPTER 17.Irene's POV. I finally reached home, I stepped into the house and walked straight to my room, it was a place that I didn't miss too much. It only brought memories that I don't want to relive, the times with my mother weren't so pleasant. Maybe others might have thought being the daughter of such a ruthless and powerful witch would be a perfect dream come true and a good life but they were mistaken because it wasn't so. Just like today, she made me do what she wanted, like compete in a competition where I could either fight or die. Unfortunately, her blood runs through my vein and I couldn't resist the surge of my powers anymore. I sighed tiredly and sat on the bed, I pressed my butt against the bed thinking about the love of my life, Ethan. I remembered the first time I set my eyes on him, he was so handsome and sexy that I couldn't resist the temptation of getting close to him or even requesting him to fuck me. It could probably be the mating bond that kept pulling me
Ethan's POV. It was great eating, swimming, and spending time with my mate but the swimming part tempted me but I was able to put my wolf in control as I have always done, her moan made my wolf growl and almost surface but I pushed him back, I needed to wait for her to solve her problems before sealing our bond, my parents still had no idea about my relationship with her. And worse my family had no idea of who she was, I have never mentioned Irene to them. She unlocked the box with the strange key that she found. I stopped her from opening the box because I was not certain if its content was safe or not or if It would be another creature but more scary and aggressive. There are strange things about her life, especially about her father, her father's death was still a mystery to her and also to me. I opened the box and our eyes beheld a beautiful necklace, it was strange because the middle gem was the same color as her eyes. "What's this" "It's beautiful" Irene muttered, obviousl
Chapter 19 Irene's POVI couldn't believe it. The necklace was mine. My name was inscribed on it, in beautiful cursive letters. I couldn't stop holding it and touching it. It was my new favorite thing in the world.As I walked with Ethan toward my house, I couldn't help but keep looking at the necklace. I didn't understand why my name was on it, but I didn't care. It was mine, and it was perfect.When we arrived at my house, I said, "No, stay with me. We can hang out a little longer." But Ethan shook his head. "It's getting late, Irene. You should head home."I pouted, but I knew he was right. I hugged him and said goodbye, then walked towards my house. It was only a few blocks away, but it felt like miles. All I could think about was my new necklace.When I stepped into the house, my mom was nowhere in sight. I went up to my room and kept looking at the necklace. I couldn't believe it was mine. I opened the book I got from my father's old cabin, hoping to distract myself from the ne
CHAPTER 20Ethan's POV. I knew the father and he had always been a cold and strict person, he was Alpha Xander, I didn't expect less from him but sometimes he could be overbearing. I blocked my mind link so he wouldn't have any access to my thoughts. Even though at times, he allowed me to do what I wanted especially in terms of things that concerned the pack like our reputation, affairs, and decisions. I am the future alpha of the pack and I can't risk dragging my father's name into the mud and becoming a weakness to the pack, on the contrary, I had to be strong, serious, and dedicated but I didn't want to be any of those things, I loved my carefree life. I wondered how my father found out that I was eating with Irene, was he monitoring me? Of course, he was monitoring me, I recalled that young wolf that kept watching Serena and me, I hope he didn't see us having some s*x play that would not sit well with my father, why would my father even monitor me? I was a grown man, not some
CHAPTER 21.Irene's POV. I spent time with Clifford, I have never had a dull moment with him. He was sometimes a chatterbox but I liked his talkative and funny nature. It relieves my mind of any stressful thoughts. He was someone I could spend time with but the moments with him couldn't be compared with my moments with Ethan, I suddenly missed him, his kisses and hugs. I went inside to get something when suddenly I heard screams and became alert. After listening for some seconds, I recognized the voice to be Clifford's. "Clifford!" I yelled and ran outside to see Ethan strangling him. My eyes widened in shock, I was expecting to see something else but not my mate trying to kill my friend, this must be some absurd drama or rather soap opera. I quickly ran to Ethan and yelled" Stop strangling him "I held his hands but he refused to let go of poor Clifford who was almost red as a tomato. " Ethan, please stop, what has gotten into you? "I yelled but my mate wouldn't listen to me.
Irene's POVWhy would Ethan behave this way almost choking the life out of Clifford, I guess he doesn't like seeing men around me, but I don't want to get him pissed, I love him so much that I don't know if I could do anything to displease him.I laid on my bed, mesmerizing in the kiss that I and Ethan just had, the feeling was sensational and I couldn't deny the fact that I wholesomely gave him my full consent to kiss me, wished he could kiss the walls of my cunt."Irene I would like to have a word with you" My mother interrupted my thoughts as I turned to look at the head that held my door from shutting."Not in the mood for that" I retorted, she was the least of my problems and I wasn't ready to have a fruitless conversation or a conversation that would end in long quarrels or misuse of words."What do you mean?, Don't you dare speak to me in that rude manner" She was surprised at my choice of words. I didn't care a bit since she was against my choices ever since I was born, I
Chapter 23Ethan's POV"Father why would you want me to accompany you on this journey of yours?" I asked, knowing how long how I would miss staring at Irene's face and cuddling her in my arms."You must to be callous to have thought of that words to ask me. Have you lost your manners?" My father's words were not surprising, being a disciplined man in his shoes would surely have to display acts of self discipline."No father I mean no disrespect, I was only being curious" I stuttered as I bowed my head in shame, wishing that I would get him pissed and then he reject me from travelling with him."In that case don't let your curiosity get the better side of your mind" He advised as he stared at me, waiting for my response."Pardon my words father" I apologized as he stood up and walked back into the castle."We're moving by nightfall so get your things ready" My father ordered."In that case I would like to see my brother Paul" I muttered to myself as I walked down to his chambers, not s
