Emily’s POVHow does one explain six months without the one they love? I was struggling to find the words to describe it, even as I struggled not to cry from thinking about it. The past months had been a whirlwind of activity that left me little time to think, let alone breathe. This time it had nothing to do with the pregnancy hormones, I was just in a place of total confusion. How could something so wonderful have come into my life and then disappear so quickly? All I wanted to do was hold him in my arms again, and tell him everything he means to me, but I couldn’t even manage that. How could I?When he had scared me away. There were times I couldn't help but feel like I had overreacted, maybe I should have been a little patient , given him some more time. But when had things ever gone right for me?"I don't want you here." Those three simple words, said without any hesitation. It hurt, but I still needed answers. That was all in the past right? Long before I had fallen in love w
Luka’s POVShe was standing naked in the middle of my room, her blonde hair rustled with the wind that made its way through the window and her pink nipples were erect, staring at me with wide blue eyes full of lust. “I have been waiting” She murmured as she pulled me close.I was sure she could feel my bulge that was pressed against her thigh. Her hand wandered towards it, stroking my shaft. “Kiss me” Her voice was soft now. ‘Kiss me’ it said again, but not to kiss, no. I knew what she was doing and I was going to say ‘no’ when I felt her lips on mine. My heart pounded fast in my chest as her tongue probed my lips and she pushed me backward until I fell onto the bed. She straddled me. Her fingers dug into my hair as she leaned forward to nibble my earlobe, pulling a moan out of my throat. My hands found their way down to her thighs, gripping her hips firmly as I rolled us over so I would be above her. Then I cupped her tits and gently squeezed them as she groaned loudly. Her fing
Emily’s POV“What are you doing here?” She roared at me. Her green eyes were filled with fury, Fury that was directed at me.It was the look I had grown to despise after she had told me off the very first time we met.I had taken Luke's advice and began to visit the part of the community where they had a therapist.It helped me cope in more ways than I could imagine and gave me some kind of closure on all of it. It gave me something to focus my energy on for the foreseeable future when I would have no use for it again. “Answer me!” the redhead yelled again, her voice louder this time, and even angrier. The air around us seemed to grow hotter like she had been holding an inferno within herself for days on end.“Why do you keep ignoring me? Why do you keep avoiding me? Why are you not responding?” She yelled.“Did I ever do something to you?” my voice was quiet compared to hers, but it echoed against the walls of the small room nonetheless.I wasn’t sure what I expected, but she hadn’t
Emily’s POVNever had my chest felt so constricted, not when he was standing so close to me and looking at me with those warm green eyes that reminded me of the grass on rainy days, with his perfect hair that always felt like silk falling gorgeously around the well-sculptured face and his smell...He smelled like pines and something that made you nostalgic, something that made you want to hold him tightly in your arms. The shirt he wore did nothing to hide the perfect biceps that graced him. Fighting the urge of running my hands through those curves was like fighting the devil himself. I wanted to touch him, I needed to. A sense of boldness compelled me to move further and I felt an intense heat that made me shudder. I was high and I had barely tasted what he had to offer. His mere presence intoxicated me and made excited flames spark within me. I felt my shirt being pulled up slightly, before feeling his hands moving to touch my bare skin, I sighed in satisfaction, almost arching
Luke’s POV“You like her don't you?” My sister's voice broke through my train of thought and for a while, I wanted to pretend that I didn't know who she was talking about. I pretended I didn't know.“What are you going on about Carolyn?” My voice was nonchalant. I didn't want to indulge in any of her nonsense.“You know what I am talking about - who I am talking about” She deadpanned.“Don’t you have better things to do than to stand there and ask me if I like Sara or not?”She gave me a look that said “I told you so” It was only then I realized how much I had messed up.“I didn't even mention her name and you already know who I am talking about. What a coincidence” she hummed.“You are insane” My comeback was weak and I knew Carolyn wouldn't let me go easily.“Am I? I don't think I am lying. You like her” Her voice was firm. Her grey eyes which we inherited from our mother that were very much similar to mine met me as if daring me to deny it.“I don't like her” I wasn't lying, right?
Luke's POVI did not see Carolyn in the hours that followed. I believed that she was staying away from me- avoiding me and I felt like a jerk. How could I hurt my sister like that?“Sir?” One of the guards called out to me, jolting me out of my thoughts.“What is it, Albert?”“Herschel is back and he's asking for you”That was all I needed to hurry to the courtroom where the tall blonde skinny man who always wore black stood with an impatient look on his face as if he couldn't wait to tell me what he found.We locked eyes for a moment before Hershel let out a sigh. “Greetings Sir”The last time expected him, he didn't show up and I knew how difficult it was to sneak around.“Herschel, a surprise to see you here. How have you been since our parting?”He gave a nod in reply. “Good and you, Sir, how have you been? We were not able to visit you as much as we would like to, I am sure you know why”I nodded my head.Herschel and two of his men were our spies, the only link we had with the r
Luka's POVI had dreams where I saw her more than often, dreams where she came back to me at night in the middle of the day. Her presence in my dreams was like a ghost, and so I thought it would never end. But that night… It wasn't my mates haunting presence that woke me. Instead, I woke up because of a sick twisted feeling in my guts that I couldn't place . A gut feeling that made me think that there was something wrong with my mate. Something… That didn’t fit with what my mate looked like. It didn’t fit with how much I loved her. And even if it did, what on earth could be causing this feeling? I yearned for Emily at that moment more than I ever had in my life. She was my heart. My everything. My only reason why I even went through the motions of getting out of bed at three in the morning, which was more of an obligation than anything else. If there was someone I’d rather die than face at that moment, Emily was definitely at the top of that list. She was all I wanted. All I though
Luke’s POV“Now I need you to pick up your swords and I know it seems a little heavy. I will demonstrate the technique with one of the guards here and you'll watch and repeat the same with the other guards. Each child gets a new guard, after that, you'll try it with yourselves“ The female trainee explained.We were going to teach them how to defend themselves. It was a plan I thought was necessary, we needed it.The children looked really nervous, She smiled as she watched their reactions.“Do you understand?” she asked them.“Yes, Laura” they chorused.Laura smiled again satisfied with her work, bowing curtly to me before making her way to get her sword. Moving to the center of the gathering. Everyone was looking at her expectantly, waiting for her to move as well. She just stared at them for a while before beckoning on the head of the royal guards.He was a huge man, easily towering over Laura. He nodded once and walked to stand in front of her as if ready to catch her if needed.
