Mr. Mystery disappeared as soon as I asked that question. I became lost in my reverie, wondering who he was and where he had gone to in such a swift manner, as my pupils wandered around for him.Still trying to find him, Bianca came in, squealing.. “It is midnight cupcake, time to leave with your mate; I am so happy for you.” I rolled back my eyes and cocked my head, as I checked the watch in my hand; it was past midnight, at five minutes past two in the morning, precisely.Luckily for me, the agency I worked with gave me a two weeks honeymoon leave, and I was going to spend the days judiciously. Glaring at my already intoxicated friend, I spread my arms far apart, welcoming her into my arms, as I tugged her into a hug. "I'm going to miss you.." I voiced, rubbing my palm on her back in soothing confidence. Obviously, she didn't respond. The power of alcohol! So I thought though.And in a jiffy, I pulled away, took a quick glance around as I searched for my new husband and mate.As
I could sense Carl walking down the passageway, and all of a sudden, he clenched onto his chest, so hard like his heart was being ripped out of his body as he struggled to walk down the corridor.His wolf had been groaning and practically howling. He quickly halted, and glared into the empty air, and in a blink, he spoke."My mate…!" Obviously, he understood his mate was in pain, but he wasn't sure I would like to have him bedside me after our misunderstanding, as he shrugged, ignoring the pain in his chest as a man that he was.He took some few quick steps and then clenched harder onto his chest again, quivering in anguish as he struggled to move over to my doorstep. With the pain doubling in his chest, he clamped on the door knob, clicked it open, and then the door slammed so hard on the wall behind it as he pushed. His eyes shot wide as we locked gaze right as he met me on the floor, writhing in pain and he almost fell to the floor in shock as he missed his steps. He rushed in, a
"Oh, oh, my darling, I'm so so sorry.." Carl brought closer his hand, brushing his palms on my now wet skin as I felt I was going to see the other side of him like I always felt he was hiding. But to my greatest shock, he still kept everything inside. He was super relieved and excited to see me sit up all by myself. "Yes, yes, my darling.. I -I'm awake. What would you like to eat this morning?” he stuttered and quickly asked as he sat up and watched me, trying to defrost my frozen mood. My hair clung on my forehead with beads of sweat despite the air conditioning temperature of the room. “I feel so hot right now, and I'd love to take a shower first, please." I said, placing my hands on the bed for support, as my body began to change automatically, leaving me feeling very weak, and my legs felt like they were exchanged with that of a jellyfish. Almost totally numb."Sel-" I interrupted. Obviously, he was about calling her name."And, can I get a glass of chocolate milk first?” I dem
“What in the world are you here for?” Carl questioned as they both walked through the main door, and shut it right after them. Dr. Barbara apologized for the interruption, but Carl knocked it off with a hiss."Cut the familiarity and just go straight to the point!" Carl commanded, flinging his hand through the empty air as he spoke.“Well, I am here to remind you about the mating and-""And what about the mating? Isn't that what was about to take place before you came in with your goddamn interruption..? Huh?" He cursed with his interruption, pointing a rather daring finger at her."I apologize, my Overlord..""Just get on with why you're here before I change my mind!" His boiling rage now dowsing down a bit as he curled his lips in unison.Dr. Barbara became quite speechless as her gaze was transfixed on the hard, tiled floor as he geared. "I-I brought her a more effective pain relief prescription too. You can continue where you left off, I will drop the drugs with the butler.” her
I stood firm, watching as I saw her holding my mate's arm and batting her eyes coquettishly at him. I was lost in different worlds at the same time; confusion, frustration, and fury, burning with great rage inside of me to tear someone apart and rip off her wolf from its hiding, and then keep it caged forever.“What is she doing here?” I questioned in a very icy tone. My gaze was still fixed on her.The red head grinned like a shark. She was wearing a blue suede gown that clung to her skin and a very bold and flirty makeup. Just imagine!Imagine the mood!Imagine the appearance!I hissed. Silently.“Hi! I could not introduce myself the last time. I am Amanda Vermont, the representative of the nymph, secretary to the Magic Council. You are one very lucky woman, Mrs. Elise.” she introduced with a weird grin plastered on her face like a doll with a fake smiley face.“Nice to meet you. I would love to shake your hand since it is polite and proper, but it is a pity that your right hand i
The next morning, bright and early as the day, I went out wearing a tracksuit and a pair of running shoes. I informed Thomas that I was out for a jog and a cup of coffee at the nearest coffee shop.My heart was pounding as I jogged from the house to the café shop that was almost four miles away. But as I sighted the blue and white umbrellas perched on the little wooden tables and chairs that dotted the front of the little café, I stopped and grinned as I looked at the elegant cream teacup designs on the glass door. The scent of freshly grounded coffee and baked goodies welcomed me as I opened the door. I was extremely delighted when I discovered that my favourite coffee place was not so far away from my new home.I usually flew in to patronize the place and I greeted the few staff around, Bianca was already waving happily at me. “Let me just get my order, I will be joining you shortly.” I waved back at her and found my way to the counter.Francis, the son of the owner of the coffee
The trip to Maine was such a cool and pleasant one. We arrived there later that day and Carl looked both annoyed and pleased as I laid on his chest, thoroughly, and exhausted. He was rather nervous and guilty about how our marriage had been going, especially with that stupid redhead, Amanda, or whatever she called herself who was constantly making herself a nuisance. He was rather worried as Elvis and Lincoln approached him at different times before he left the feast, threatening him that they would take me away from him. He knew Lincoln was powerful but not as powerful as he was, and he was crazy about his best friend and I was oblivious to it.Elvis was just an opportunistic playboy, who wanted his cousin for her beauty and power. Obviously.Something that struck him was the mystery gift he received; a bloody mask signed 'L. W.' He had pondered on who had the initials and would be bold enough to send such a threat.I snuggled closer to him unknowingly as he carried me into his beac
As we both went back to bed that night, both of us were lost in our thoughts. Carl could not believe that I was that read and I could not believe that my mate had such an interesting past. He was wearing only boxer shorts, while I wore an oversized shirt and a pair of boy shorts. The night was really cold and as we climbed into bed, I commented about it offhandedly.“You do know that you have a mate here at your service, it will not pay you if you keep to your side of the bed.” the thunderous but soft voice of Carl toned in my ears as I plumped my pillow and sighed. The sheets were very luxurious in feeling to me and I soon found myself asleep, curled underneath my mate. I felt really warm that way, and contented.~~~~~~~~~~~~~Carl woke up the next morning as the bright light from an open curtain streamed on his face and lit up the room. It seemed someone had opened the curtain and windows, allowing the fresh cool sea breeze to blow in softly. He sat up from his sleep and looked ar
