“You’re pregnant?!” Alex asked, pacing the room frantically.He was throwing his arms in the air as he spoke. I could see the utter panic in his face as he continued to walk back and forth across the room.“You weren’t supposed to still be pregnant,” he hissed, his eyes darkening as he glanced over at me.Still? What did he mean by that? Looking at the confusion on my face, he rolled his eyes and stopped pacing so he could fully face me.“The test results from the other day were positive. I told Olivia to tell you it was negative, so you didn’t know. From there, I asked the landscaper to assault you again and make you lose the baby,” he told me, as though I should have already known this information.My mouth fell open.How could one person be so manipulative and dark like that? He asked the landscaper to assault me and make me lose the baby? For a while since residing at the manor, Alex seemed to be the more level-headed and kinder one. But he was the mastermind of pure evil. He di
There had to be about 200 different wolves at the dinner party. It was held in the ballroom of the Roessler manor. Anybody important would be at this dinner party; it was something Marlon hosted every few months.Back when his luna, Ashley, was alive, she used to live for these parties.The ballroom was set up with multiple round tables with white tablecloths and small round lanterns in the center. The walls of the ballroom were made of rustic deep-meadow wood with golden extracts placed between each plank of wood. He kept paintings on one side of the wall to act as an art exhibit: displaying only the most expensive and most known, yet rare, paintings in the country. On the far side of the ballroom was a large stage with a classical orchestra playing a soothing tune for the guests. A maroon carpet, with the family’s golden symbol stitched within it, went from the ballroom entrance to the dining tables.The ballroom began filling out with the expected guests; each one finding their pl
His lips closed around hers; they were soft against his mouth, and she tasted minty from the gum she was previously chewing. He could also taste a hint of that wine she was sipping on at her dining table.As he tightened his embrace around her, he could feel his wolf’s growing anger and the tension that came with it. His wolf was attempting to pull him back, telling him to cut the shit. Ignoring his wolf, he continued his intimate embrace.Sierra lifted a leg and wrapped it around his waist, pressing herself against him. She wore a delicate red dress that rested just under her knees, so she was easy to access. Lifting her dress only slightly, he was able to come in contact with her black lacy panties.She moaned against his lips as his fingers found her wetness; he rubbed the black of his thumb against her clit and she heavily exhaled. She fumbled around with his pants, trying to get them off but he blocked her attempts by deepening his motioning and increasing her pleasures.His wolf
It’s been a few days since the attack at the dinner party; Marlon already knew it was the talk of the kingdom. He had Winston and his boys in town, trying to investigate who the attackers were while Marlon stayed at the manor to investigate for himself.Being one of the top noblemen, Marlon knew he had many enemies. But what would bring them to attack a dinner party and what were they targeting? It didn’t’ seem like they were looking for anything because they went straight for the attack.None of it made sense to him and the very thought of it infuriated him.His only thought was maybe they found out about Deonna, and they weren’t happy about it. Perhaps they were looking for her and wanted to end her life before the baby arrives. But nobody knew she was pregnant with his child so that didn’t quite make sense to him either.Something in his wolf was telling him that he needed to play it off like nothing was going on between him and the slave; not that anything was going on persay. He
There had to be a catch. There was no way Marlon Roessler wanted to keep me alive just because I was pregnant with his child. This child would come out of me dark-furred and a disgrace to the kingdom. They would be abused and neglected, not to mention enslaved and later slaughtered by light-furred wolves.The thought was sickening. The thought of losing my child in the most erupting and traumatizing way. I’ve lost a lot of people in my life, and I watched a lot of wolves die in my presence, but none of them were my own children. I couldn’t imagine what it would be like to lose a child.Marlon was one of the biggest racist noblemen I knew; there was no way he would want to keep that child anywhere near his manor.So, why bother keeping me alive? Why not allow me to die in peace?To my shock, he’s allowing me to reside inside the manor. I’m not sure how he managed to pull that off, but Winston came to collect me from the garden after my duties and brought me to the guest room on the eas
I was taken back by his words. I had no idea he felt that strongly about the pregnancy. Upon finding out about the pregnancy, it didn’t seem as though he believed the child to be his.I wasn’t going to question his motives, but I remembered my conversation with Alex about attending school. We made a deal that he would help me attend school if I can convince Marlon to allow for that to happen.“Okay,” I told him softly. “I do have a favor.”He cocked an eyebrow up at me and folded his arms across his chest.“What’s that?” He asked; I could hear the humor lingering behind his words, but he kept a firm expression.“I want to go to school and study for real; like your sons,” I told him.He frowned.“Excuse me?” He asked, eyeing me carefully.“Back when I lived with the commoners,” I paused as the memory came flooding back to me. “I used to study a lot. They had a school they allowed me to attend. I wasn’t exactly equal, but they didn’t treat me poorly. I also had my family to protect me.
Her body laid before him in pure bliss; naked and beautiful. Her tanned skin radiates in the candlelit room of the guest bedroom. Her dark hair messily fell around her exotic features. He was wrapped around her thin body, kissing the nape of her neck, and trailing down her shoulder blade and to her torso.The movement of her body, her breathing, grew heavier allowing for her breasts to move freely with the rest of her. He cupped his lips around her firm, and dark, nipples. Bringing them into his mouth and sucking her nipples tenderly.She moaned at his touch, increasing his erection.The silvery aura of his wolf combined with the hazy purple aura of her wolf brought out a beautiful pink shade between the two. Both wolves appeared to be deeply satisfied.Marlon’s lips closed around hers and he sucked her bottom lip tenderly; he breathed her in. Breathing the same air, she breathed.This is what you want. A voice in his head spoke to him in a low tone; he recognized the voice to be his
Without answering, she wrapped her lips around his thumb, sucking him gently, and allowed her tongue to swirl around his finger in a tender and gentle motion. He pulled his hand away and leaned down to place his lips against hers. Her gentle kiss sent his heart into turmoil as his tongue made its way into her mouth, exploring her out of her curiosity and tasting the very essence of her being.Climbing under the blankets, on the bed, he pulled her nightgown over her head. He was pleased to see her completely naked and vulnerable to him. She was breathing heavily as he removed his own clothing and threw them on the ground beside the bed.Her fingers traveled down his torso and landed around his erection; he was already oozing his juices. Her hands moved up and down his shaft as he continued kissing her lips. He gently moved from her mouth and down the sides of her face, landing around the nape of her neck.He lowered his kisses until his lips were around her nipples, tugging them gently
My water broke right in the middle of Marlon’s proposal to me. It couldn’t have come at the worst time, but the contractions were awful and gut-wrenching. Pain coursed through my body, and I screamed as I tumbled onto the bed.It felt like the baby was about to break out of my stomach at any moment. I could feel the sweat trickling down my features and rolling down the nape of my neck. My breathing had come to rasp and my body trembled uncontrollably.Marlon tried to get me to lie all the way down in the bed.“Aaaahhhhhh!” I screamed as more pain went through my body like an electronic shock.I wished more than anything that I could have Kamala by my side, but she was still unconscious. I held onto Marlon’s arm tightly as the pain went through my body, nearly paralyzing me. I couldn’t believe this was happening right now. It was too early to be having this baby; I wasn’t due for another few weeks.“I have Dr. Lovewitt on the way,” Marlon assured me as he placed a warm cloth over my he
Bob carried Kamala back to the manor, and Deonna and Marlon walked beside them. As they returned, the maids were scurrying around the foyer, looking shocked and Winston also looked worried. Bob said nothing as he passed them to the grand stairs to bring Kamala to bed. She still hadn’t woken up and it was worrisome.Marlon felt complete to blame for that. He couldn’t believe he didn’t realize that her magic was no longer light and that she was using dark magic. Then again, how would he have known unless they told him?None of this made sense to him and he felt a knot in his stomach. He knew Deonna was upset with him for making Kamala come here to use her powers. Especially considering it nearly killed her the first time she used them. But at the time, Marlon felt like there was no other choice. There wasn’t any proof that they had won; though from what Marlon could tell, almost everyone including the king was dead.He hadn’t seen Alex’s body though, so he wasn’t sure if his other son w
I ducked and covered as the battleground exploded. Bits and pieces of the king’s ground flew all over the place; smoke filled the air so I couldn’t see if there were any survivors. I was lucky enough to be a distance away, so I wasn’t hit or hurt, but the ringing in my ears was surreal.I couldn’t hear anything, and I could hardly see anything. The smoke filled my lungs quickly and coughed to try to remove it from my lungs. I pushed my way through the smoke and stumbled across some bodies of the dead. I grimaced at the blood as I came across these bodies; they all looked burned to a crisp and blood soaking through the dirt that surrounded us.My breathing grew shaky as I continued walking through the battlegrounds; praying that I could find some survivors.As my hearing started returning, I heard some screams of the injured and some screams of terror from some others.I screamed out for Marlon.I screamed out for Kamala.She was in the air a moment ago, and now she was completely gone
The gunshots and the yelling were getting louder as Kamala left the forest and entered the town of Mooncrest. The battle was nearing as she ran closer toward them; she wasn’t sure what her game plan was, but Bob and Marlon seemed so sure that she would be able to stop the battle by using her magic.Though they didn’t know how deep her magic goes and how different it was. She wasn’t sure she was going to be able to control it once it started working. Once she came into view of the battle, she turned back into her human form.Or more like her body rejected her wolf form. She wasn’t sure which it was, but it was unsettling.The battle was going on around her; as she walked through the fighting, it was almost as if nobody could see her. None of them paid much attention to her; she realized that nothing was able to touch her.It was amazing; she was wrapped in a bubble of different energy. She couldn’t believe it. It seemed as though the dark magic was working around her without her tellin
I couldn’t believe she had just left. We discovered that her powers are darker than what meets the eye. I’m starting to think it wasn’t Nyx who had this plan; maybe she planned to give Kamala the power to use it for good and not drain her of her wolf and life. But maybe whatever dark magic Petra used was what took that light magic from Kamala and started to fill her with its dark magic.I feared that when she arrived and used those powers to stop the battle, it was going to do worse than good.I couldn’t just stand around and watch my friend and everyone I know, and love meet a fatal end. I had to somehow stop it from happening; I told her I was going to let her go alone. I made a promise that I would stay behind and get some rest, get Mateo in the morning, and wait around for Kamala to send me word. But I couldn’t just do that; I had to go back to Mooncrest to help them.But first, I couldn’t just leave here without seeing my son. This might be the last time I see him, and I needed h
“He wants what?!” Deonna asked, staring at Kamala with wide and worried eyes.Kamala sat at the edge of Deonna’s bed, playing with her fingers nervously. She felt the urge to cry but no tears would leave her eyes. She wasn’t sure what to do or what to think. She couldn’t believe that Bob was asking her to do such a thing. Especially after knowing what happened to her the first time when she used this power.Bob didn’t even know the extent of it, and he was wanting her to return to Mooncrest and defeat the king’s army using the light magic that Nyx had given her. He had no idea that her light magic was gone, and it was only replaced with the dark magic the castle’s shield had soaked into her.She was like a sponge, and she wasn’t sure she could handle such a task.It would put everybody in danger and probably kill her in the process.“I have to,” Kamala said softly, looking at Deonna. “I must help with this battle. If there’s a way to defeat the king’s army and fight for our freedom, t
Marlon was taking cover; he remained in his wolf form, but he feared no good would come from that. the king’s army decided to fight dirty and was using firearms. He managed to get a glimpse of Deonna and Kamala running toward the forest and it didn’t seem as if anyone was following her.Alex’s eyes never left her though he was growling as he too remained in his wolf form. He was obviously furious that she had gotten away but with one wrong move and he would have gotten shot so he couldn’t go after her.It pleased Marlon to watch Deonna escape and once she disappeared into the forest completely, he knew she was going to make it to the village and make it back to Mateo.He refused to die here though; he wasn’t going to let Deonna give birth to their second child without him. He couldn’t bear the thought of her raising their children alone. She wouldn’t have the proper resources needed to raise these children on her own.However, there was no doubt in his mind that she would manage just
I nearly dropped the letter as I continued reading it; it was a letter from my birth mother, Elianna, to my adoptive mother. it was all here; every bit of truth about what happened the night I was born. It was Frederick that told the duke about Elianna giving birth to me. It was Frederick that basically caused the manhunt for my birth father Robert and caused him to either die or run away.I wasn’t expecting the duke to forgive Elianna so easily though after she had an affair and a child with Robert. But he forgave her until she was sent my information and then she was never trusted again.Considering the journal entries were no more and this seemed to be the last letter that I know about; there was no doubt in my mind that the duke had his wife killed because of my birth.What hurt more than knowing about my actual past, was knowing that my adoptive mother knew about it. Everything was written out for her; I’m not sure when she received this letter, but she received it and read it. S
I wanted to write this letter because you have something that belonged to me a long time ago. I have lost everything, and I continue to lose so much even as I write this. I don’t know how much more time I have before they find me. But if nothing else, I want you to at least know the truth about Deonna. I know you adopted her in an orphanage up North. I know this because I was the one who put her there, and you might be wondering who I am and why I would give up such a beautiful child, placing her in a location as cruel as that orphanage. It’s because where I come from, I couldn’t take her with me. It’s not that I didn’t want to, it’s that I couldn’t. if she were to be found out, I would be put to death. But I made some miscalculations, and it seems I will be put to death anyway. Her existence is known, and I only have myself to blame. I’m sorry for writing this in a letter and I’m sorry you adopted her without knowing the truth about her. She will grow to always have a target on her
