Chapter 4
Irene P.O.VThe day went back very fast,I was barely ready when my door started buzzing that Ethan is here already. I let him in and waited by the door for him to knock. I felt butterflies in my stomach as I opened the door to let him in, he stood there in a gray t-shirt with black jeans and sneakers. He looks absolutely gorgeous. I was so busy admiring his chest that I didn't notice the flowers in his hand. His smile was wide and playful." Pretty flowers for pretty girls"." Thank you so much come on"Once I had put the flowers in a vase he walked over to me, wrapped his hands around my waist and pulled me into a heart melting kiss,there was no sensitive touch this time around. It was pure fire,his lips crashed into mine and his tongue explored my mouth. Our first kiss was incredible but this one makes me wonder how I would ever kiss another man again. All too quickly he released me quickly and I stumbled a little unstable on my feet, he noticed and chuckled." What for dinner love?"I had never been a fan of pet names but the way he calls love with his accent makes me wet." Steak of course. How would you like yours cooked?"" Medium rare l, please ".I pretended to be shocked and set to work, dinner went well and he complimented my cooking skills. I couldn't believe the sheer volume he ate. Being a werewolf must be very exhausting and the grocery bills extraordinary." You told me you are a witch but I haven't seen any sign of that yet"." Well you have a point there,I'm not exactly proud of it and I rarely use magic ".Why is that? Most witches I know love to use their magic and hold it over the head of everyone else." That's exactly why I don't use it, I don't bargain, I don't hurt people, I don't do whatever it takes to gain more power. I'm fine to be left alone to live my life in peace, the only magic I practice regularly is a protective spell for when I'm out alone and healing charms if I think it will do good for my patients, but if you would like some proof"... I waved my hand at the candle on the table and a small flame appeared. Ethan smiled at it and looked back at me.You are incredible ." Well thank you, but how so?"" Most people I know will never be able to resist the temptation to use their magic to gain more power, it is impressive and incredibly attractive". He reached across the table and raised my hand up with his, he gently lifted to his mouth and plaster gentle kisses all along my knuckle while never breaking eye contact with me. I felt my face heat up with an intense blush and I gave him a shy smile. I stood up from the table and used the hand he still had in mine to pull him to the couch. I pushed him down and climbed on top of him, one knee on either side of him.I had never been this close to him with my eyes open and I took my time to savor his appearance. I ran my finger through his hair. It was soft and silky. I leaned close to him and breathed his scent, but he didn't smell like one thing in particular, more like an ordinary man. I knew it wasn't perfume but still the scent of him made my heart pound.I put my hand on either side of his face and felt the slight stubble that had started to grow. The whole time he was staring back at me while his hand trailed along my hips and back stroking small circles. I don't know where this constant feeling of static shock came from,but I had never felt anything like it before. His touch makes me both excited and calm at the same time, I lean forward slowly bringing my lips closer to his. The intense feeling of electricity jolted through my body as I leaned closer to him. He moaned into my mouth and angle my head away from him so he could trail kisses down my neck,I responded with a moan of my own. I could feel him growing hard beneath me and I wiggle my hips to encourage him along.What the hell am I doing? I just met this guy, I can't sleep with him already.He trails his tongue from my neck to below my ear and sucks gently." Holy shit, I hope he does that to my clit".He dug his nails gently into my hips and thrust his hips, so his hard dick rubbed against my wet lace thong under my dress.Excellent underwear choice Irene. Proud of you girl.Before I could mentally approve of myself anymore, Ethan lifted me by the hips like I was a feather and laid me down on the couch. I could tell he was a werewolf because he was incredibly fast to get on top of me." If you don't want this to happen, you need to stop me now because I'm running out of self control. I'm not going to fuck you tonight, love. But I have been dying to have a taste of you since I met you and I'm hoping you will let me".I nodded so fast and hard that I nearly pulled a muscle in my neck. My mouth went dry and I was barely able to give a response." Yes,please".Chapter 5Ethan's P.O.VYes, please. God did that one sentence make me think of all kind of things I wanted to do to her. I was determined to keep myself in check and take things slow,this was too important. She was too important to me than risking the fear of scaring her away, I plastered kisses along her face down to her neck and into her breast, I could see her nipples had hardened under her dress and I rub them with my thumb, eliciting the delicious gasp and moans from my mate. I traveled down her body, pulling her dress up to her waist, kissing her belly. I growl in appreciation when I saw the sexy black thong she was wearing, she giggled in response."I was hoping to get a better look at the red pair"." I figured black was more suited for werewolf. The red was screaming vampire to me". I laughed and settle in-between her legs. I trailed kisses up both side of her thighs and rubbed my nose on her through her thong, I breathed her scent in deeply and my mouth started to water. Wh
Chapter 6Irene's P.O.VIf anyone had told me a week ago that I was going to wake up this morning with a man in my bed I would have laughed. If you had told me that this man would be a werewolf, I would have had him or her admitted to a psychiatric hospital. And yet here I am, sweating my ass off because werewolves are like space heaters, wrapped into the arms of the most handsome man I've ever seen. I looked at Ethan still sleeping, I took this opportunity to admire his features. He looked so peaceful and even younger while he was sleeping, I traced my finger along his cheek and across his lips as I let my mind wander to what happened last night and the orgasms we shared. Not only was he talented with his tongue, but he was also sweet, funny, and too charming for his good." Stop staring at me, it's creepy". I blushed not realizing he had woken up." I can't help it, you are sexy as fuck". He laughed and pulled me in for a steamy kiss." Get up love, I'm making you a delicious breakf
Chapter 7Irene's P.O.VStorytime? Was he fucking kidding me? Do I look like a little kid?" No, you are not a little kid, but there is something I need to explain to you"" Fuck?" " Did I just say that out loud?"" Here," he said, wrapping me up with a blanket. " Put this on, I can't focus on anything seeing you dressed like this." Wow, I knew I was irresistible".He pulled me to sit on his lap before taking a deep breath. How much do you know about werewolves?" I thought about it for a moment then I realized that I don't know much about them." All I was ever told while growing up was to stay away from them because they could tear me into pieces when they get the chance ".He gave me a sad look, well now you know what you have been hearing isn't true. " I will never do anything to hurt you"." Yes, except not sleeping with me". I crossed my arms and gave him a little pout making him smile." Irene, have you ever heard about werewolves being fated to mates?" I looked at him confuse
Chapter 8Ethan's P.O.VIrene was able to take three weeks off from work, which was more than I ask her for. This strengthen my hope that she was going to try to make things work out between the two of us. My little mate was strong and kind, but I was still worried about our some of the pack members were going to act towards her. If anything were to happen to her because I couldn't control my pack members, I would never forgive myself. I was pulled out of my thought when my phone rings. It was a call from my brother, I wasn't sure why he was calling but I think it wasn't for good." Hello?"" Hey, Ethan we need you to come back home"." Why, what going on"." There was an attack on the pack, something tried to enter the city and attack a couple of kids in the pack"." Fuck, got any idea of what it is?"" Based on the trace and scent left behind, we are thinking it vamps". Fucking bloodsuckers." Ok, I will be home tomorrow and Paul I'm bringing my mate back"." Really? Are you sure th
Chapter 9IRENE’S POVEthan drove me to his family’s “ancestral” mansion. This place was like a freaking castle. From the glittering walls to the enormous chandeliers, everything screamed royalty. Like, wealthy royalty. And seeing Ethan walk through it all unfazed somehow made him seem a thousand times more attractive. Although not just to me, because my eyebrows wrinkled in contempt when a lady draped in a very lacey, very revealing apparel came towards him, kissing his hand with a sly smile on her face. “Welcome back, Your Majesty,” she said, bowing her knees. What did she think she was even doing? This wasn’t the Roman Empire and my Ethan certainly wasn’t Augustus Caesar. He’s not your Ethan though, my brain offered.“Thank you, Guinevere,” he said, hands still in hers. “This is Irene, my mate.” A smile unintentionally came to my face when he slipped his hands out of hers and put his left one at the crease of my back to make this introduction.“Hi,” I said while nodding at her ver
Chapter 10IRENE’S POVI woke up suddenly to the sound of clanging bells and footsteps of people running and loud screaming. What the hell was going on? I walked up hurriedly to the doors but as I was about to swing them open, I stopped. What exactly was going on there? What if there was an actual vampire out there? Was I fortified to fight one off? Oh, fuck it. I’m one of the most powerful witches out there. Vampires had never scared me before. I reached out to open the doors but they wouldn’t budge. I looked in between the locks and found that they were locked from the outside. Why was I locked in? Ethan was definitely behind this. The screaming and hullabaloo outside were intensifying. Was this a normal thing on full moons? It was a full moon tonight? Maybe one of them was wolfing out--extremely? I thought about jumping out of one of the windows but they were too small, and not worth it. While I was worried, I wasn’t apprehensive because let’s face it, this is a wolf community. They
Chapter 11 I woke the next morning with a slight headache. I tried to open my eyes but I squinted at the impact of the light rays coming in through the window. I looked to my side and found that Ethan was no longer in bed with me. I stood up and went to search for some aspirin in the bag I brought along with me. I took two tablets with a glass of tap water and sat down on the bed, my head in my hands. I needed to get out of here right now. I quickly took a shower, brushed my teeth and looked for a change of clothes. I didn’t bring any of mine while coming. Ethan had assured me that I didn’t need to worry about any of that stuff. I looked into the walk-in closet and found a couple of plain white T-shirts and dark jeans. I tried putting them on. The jeans fit just fine, but the shirt was a tad bit too big. I took a look at myself in the mirror, ran a hand through my disheveled hair, and gave myself a non-committal shrug of disappointment. High libidos were a curse in disguise. I grabb
Chapter 12Derek and I had fun keeping our relationship a secret from my family and the rest of the witch community. He couldn’t come around my house anymore and I was never allowed at his anyway, so all our meet-ups had to be at all of Lafayette’s shady places. We planned dates without agreeing on their venues and because my aunties and other relatives owned shops and businesses around town, we couldn’t even take walks together during the day. We hung out mostly during the night--and I mean late into the night. I was very surprised I was even allowed by mom to keep such late nights but I guessed she left me to my own devices because she didn’t want me to be very depressed. Either that or she just didn’t notice. I couldn’t care less anyway. So, Ethan and I had our relationship on a nighttime basis. When everyone was asleep, I would wander out of our house into the entrance of the lonely community building. I usually carried my legendary diary so that no one would be too suspicious if
IRENE'S POVThe plan was so have Clifford subdued under Paul's whip of seduction, it was really hard but it was worth the risk, knowing how Paul could be manipulative and the fact that he took it as a challenge made me stand on the fact that this plan was going to be successful."I have to tell you I have to protect your brother and that would mean that I would have to stay at his castle," I had to explain this to Ethan because he was acting so weird that it felt like he wanted to have the whole kingdom suffer at the hands of Clifford."How's that even possible?" His questions made me realize that he was looking for a fair fight, a battle where we would face each other, we wouldn't even stand a chance. Penetration was the best way possible, having us in the inside hitting their weak points and make them fall at our mercy."I and your brother would hid in the forest where Clifford's warriors go to hunt and when they're coming we'll pretend to be making which would make them understand
Irene's POV"What's wrong?" I was a bit surprised at the silence in the court, wondering what made all of them scared to the point that they couldn't even make an utterance."Clifford dropped off a message that left us shocked" One of the cabinet members broke the silence, I knew she was scared of Clifford but the fact that I was here gave them a reason not to feel scared, I had him once and I still have the capacity to have him at my mercy again."What message?" I inquired, wondering if Clifford murdered one of the witches."That he's taking over the lands and there's nothing that we would do to stop him" she said these words in fear, she was afraid that her family's life was at risk, having a daughter was something worth dying for. She didn't want anything to happen to her daughter."He met me in the hospital and brought a deal to me, he was to pay me 200 million dollars and allow me leave these lands with my husband and his brother peacefully or stand to be defeated by him" I had t
Chapter 97Ethan's POVThe words Clifford is here made me a bit scared knowing that Irene's life was threatened anytime we got closer to Clifford. The fact that Irene wanted to meet him made me a bit uneasy, wondering what was giving her the guts to feel so strong that she could stand against Clifford after what transpired with her health few minutes ago."We're not leaving, we should know the reason why he's here" Irene meant her words and this got me pissed, I didn't want the death of her and my brother, so running was the best option at this point."Well he's here to kill you and you know that" I uttered as I held down the door knob, she was reluctant to come with me, this was really surprising. On the verge of asking her a question, she spoke her words without fear,"We don't know that for now, if you want to leave you can but I'm definitely staying cause I can't be the rat that would always run when it sees the cat coming, it's high time we switched places" "In that case let's f
Irene's POV"Well as you can see that this war can't be won on your side, you're getting weak... QqYou have a child coming and that would weaken your strength, you know that right?" He uttered as he stared at me for a while, wondering how he got to know that I was pregnant. I guess he must have found out about that from the nurse. "I hate it when you do this, if you're here to say something, say it and stop reminding me of issues that have been sorted out already" I uttered, knowing that he was just biting around the corners, I wanted to know the main reason why he used his powers all the way from his kingdom down to the outskirts of our land just to see me."I want you to give me the kingdom on a platter of gold, I'll give you 200 million dollars and other gifts attached to the deal. You can leave now and start a new life maybe a new kingdom, have enough money to take care of your son that's coming, I don't want to hurt you, hurt your unborn child and your loved ones and still have
Irene's POVHow're you feeling?" He asked as he held my hands softly, I knew he was worried about my health but I couldn't let him realize that I was conversing with the Nurse."I'm feeling good, where am I?" I pretended to raise my head up, tilting it to the right side of the bed, opening my eyes and trying to get up to my feet, "You're in an emergency ward" he uttered as he held me down, urging me to relax."Are we at the cabin?" I inquired, awaiting his response."Not yet, but once you're discharged we would head down to the cabin before going down to your castle" he uttered, knowing that this wasn't what I had in mind. I felt the urge and need to see my people, so staying at the cabin would only be a waste of time."I'll head down to the castle first" I retorted, as he stared at me in shock, I cared less about his words. He definitely had no choice than to concede to my words."I thought you mentioned resting in the cabin before heading down to the castle" I stuttered wearing a
ETHAN'S POV"What's wrong with her?" Paul inquired as he held her hands and lifted her. I quickly shifted into a werewolf, holding her by her clothes, I quickly ran as fast as I could, I was happy when Paul was already waiting for me at the truck. I quickly tossed her into his arms as he caught hold of her and placed her at the back seat of the truck, I got into the truck."Check her pulse""She's still breathing, drive" Paul screamed as I drove the truck out of the thick bush, I knew that we're definitely close to the cabin. I was happy when I saw the words Inn written on a cabin that looked a lot like ours."Let's stop here, they should be able to take care of her" I halted in front of the inn, horning a lot before going to help Paul pull her out of the back seat.I quickly rushed her into the building as there was only one nurse on duty."What's wrong?" She inquired, "She passed out" Paul stuttered, knowing that I wasn't in the mood for words. I only wanted to see Irene open her e
IRENE'S POV"Well since I can't say much I would say that you would make a good leader but in times of war and strategy, you have zero count for that" I didn't want him to feel bad to some point, knowing that he was definitely a bad leader and being the leader of the pack would have left them as slaves because he had little or no knowledge about the art of war."What's the essence of being a leader without war strategy and sense of reasoning in the battlefield?" Paul answered his question with his words, I felt a bit dizzy to some point."You have your answer right there" Ethan chuckles as Paul picks up a marble like stone and tosses at Ethan's direction, Ethan dodged it still laughing at the fact that Paul conceded to his words."Well let's move out, the truck is a bit far from here but we can move on foot. We have to go to the cabin and have some rest before we show this young fellow the world of witches" Ethan uttered as he held his brother's hands, wondering how Paul would even c
Ethan's POV"You remembered you had me thrown into that river with my SUV. You tried to kill me right, have a look at this," I guessed he wouldn't recognize me because I had my hair shaved and my beard was also trimmed, he knew me with my looks since it was changed it was definitely hard for him to recognize me. I showed him the bird on my wrist, knowing that we did this tattoo together when we were little, it was a symbol of our friendship and brotherhood."Arianna made me do all this to you" I knew it wasn't his intention to harm me, Arianna must have said bad words to him that had his thoughts changed, knowing how far we were together, it must have taken a strong will to have Paul subdued. He rested his head on my shoulders as I could feel his tears on my shirt."Well she did that because she had an agenda, she had you take me out and then her Father must have killed our father so she can seat upon the throne" I explained to him, as he raised his head immediately."Hey we have to g
IRENE'S POVI was scared knowing that Paul could get himself killed, jumping off the truck. I had tears in my eyes, I hoped that Ethan would come back to save me, I knew that this was a hard task for Ethan, he couldn't handle these trucks all by himself."I guess I would have to move on without Ethan" I stuttered wearing a smile on my face, knowing that it was really rare for Ethan to make it out of that alive, I knew he must have been killed. I should move on, I could meet his corpse and give him a befitting burial when I take his body home."Remembered he said he's coming back to take you and your brother so don't make it harder for him" my wolf exclaimed, she was right but I couldn't risk Arianna coming back here instead of Ethan. She would hesitate to shoot me, that I would be sure of."Do you think he would survive the fight between him and six trucks loaded with soldiers and their guns?" I sighed as I pushed Paul aside."Yes, I'm sure he'd come back to me" She was referring to E
