Rosalind

“Rosalind.”

The lawyer who I thought already left called me softly and I turned to her with hope in my eyes.

She gave a smile and let out a sigh.

But before she could utter another word, a loud round of applause echoed from the guests and I looked up to the stage to find the celebrant, Shawn, giving a warm smile to the guests.

He was about to say his speech and he looked confident and smart as he waited for the applause to quiet down, exuding a charm I knew was the reason he had so many guests come to celebrate him.

“Thank you, thank you.” His voice came into the speakers, and he began his speech but I couldn’t completely focus, not when the lawyer wanted to say more things, maybe change her mind about being James’ lawyer and pairing up with me instead, although I knew that was unlikely.

This was all in vain, coming to the party.

I put my hope up, just for them to be squashed under both James’s million dollar shoe, and the lawyer’s pencil heeled ones.

A sigh left my lips as

    JamesAs I hurriedly pushed Marina away from Rosa’s presence, my heart pounded wildly in my chest at that close encounter with Don, and Marina’s stupid slip up.What sort of mistake was that? “Why are you pushing my chair, James? You need to calm down.” Marina hissed at me, and I let out a frustrated sigh.“Don’t tell me to calm down, Marina. Don’t you know what you almost cost us? Why would you mention something that sensitive in public? Didn’t you think it through?”What she did was an incredibly stupid thing to do and if I wasn’t smart with covering it up, we could have been killed. Who lets a man who we’ve been suspecting know that he’s been the topic of our decision? If he was truly evil, something I still had my doubts about since he was my father in law, he wasn’t going to hesitate to do something to us.We had no defense. In a fight like that, we were going to obviously emerge the losers.“I wasn’t thinking… I was shocked, that's all. That doesn’t give Rosalind the right to t

    RosalindA groan left my lips as I regained consciousness, my head throbbing wildly and my throat dry. I raised my hand to touch the side of my head, but it felt heavy, just like every part of my body.The sound of beeping echoed in the room, and my still closed eyes furrowed in confusion. Where am I? I racked my brain to remember the last events, and the only thing I could remember was being at Shawn’s party.Then everything kept coming back to me. First I was at Shawn’s party, then that waiter… James asked to see me then he disappeared into that hallway.I couldn’t find him, and then…I felt a pain in my head and that was it.My eyes fluttered open and I was met with white walls and light, which proved too much to my sensitive eyes.Hospital. I was in a hospital.“She’s up. My Rosa is awake.” The familiar voice of my dad’s reached my ears and I sat up in the bed gently and a pair of hands helped me sit well.James? My brows furrowed as I met with his eyes as he smiled and took his

    Rosalind“I choose none because I’ll take care of myself.”I saw how all four faces went from shock to disagreement and they all began talking at once.“Take care of yourself?”“I almost lost you today, Rosalind. Do you think I’ll be okay knowing you may be hurt tomorrow?”“But we need to keep an eye on you, what if it’s worse next time?”“He’s right, I wouldn’t live with myself if something went wrong when I know I could have prevented it.”James’s last comment had my heart clenching painfully. He sounded scared, but I refused to believe my ears.I raised my hand frustratedly. “Can you all just calm down? I’m not a child! I’m an adult and I can take care of myself.”They all kept quiet, looking away guiltily.“Oh God.” I wiped my hand over my face. I would need painkillers after this.“How do you plan to take care of yourself?” Chris asked, looking stony and angry.“Thank you for that question, Chris. I’m an adult. You guys have forgotten that I’m a grown woman, not a child that you

    Chapter 14RosalindThe next few days after that, I applied for jobs in several big hospitals nearby, including in the forms that I had the experience of taking care of Marina for three years. It wasn’t enough experience but that was all I had because immediately I graduated, I got married to James.That slimmed my chances of getting jobs, but two hospitals accepted my forms and asked me to come for an interview. Because of my lack of experience, I only got a job, and I was to be the assistant of a doctor.I was going to be my own person working my own hob without anyone’s help.My joy knew no bounds but it was all dashed when I received an email from the interviewer.They decided to cancel my offer.My heart dropped to my feet as I read their reason. They decided to drop the offer because someone complained about my skills as a doctor.I had an idea who it could be. After all, only someone who I have taken care of could give a report about me.Marina. It has to be. Even when I want

    Rosalind“How dare you, James?” I roared in his face as my hands shook in anger, and he froze with his hand on his red face that was sure to sting.My chest heaved as I tried to control my anger but failing because he was still here, in my house and the mere fact was getting me more and more infuriated.“Answer me! How dare you accuse me of killing the person who I dedicated my life to nursing back to life for three years?”His jaw clenched but he kept quiet, not even looking me in the eyes.I shook my head in disappointment. I had faith in him. I really did.“You know what? Get out.” I ordered turning away from him and towards the door.He rose his head but I avoided his gaze. I couldn’t believe this was the man I loved all my life just days ago. I’ve been a fool.“Rosalind-“ he started but I wanted none of that.“Don’t bother saying any of your nonsense, James. I said get out now!” I screamed, and he looked shocked that o could scream at him. He was so used to the calm and meek Ros

    Shawn“You have to come to my party!” Lola, Rosa’s best friend and a friend I got to know through Rosalind, shouted into my ears through the phone as I thought of how to tell her no for the third time in three minutes.Everyone knew Lola and every time she travelled she always threw parties when she came back. I haven’t seen her in a long time and when it would be nice to rewind with a party, I wasn’t in the right mood for one. It has been a long day at work and I wanted nothing more than to crawl under the sheets and watch a nice show, but Lola wasn’t taking no for an answer.“I’m sorry Lola. Maybe next time? I promise I’ll make it up to you.” I tried to reassure her but she groaned through the phone.“But it wouldn’t be the same without you! And even Rosa is here.”My ears perked up at the sound of that. “Wait, Rosalind is at the party?”As if on cue I heard Rosa high pitched giggle from the phone at something someone said.She sounded like she was having fun.“Of course Rosa is

    Marina James haven’t said a word to me since he came into the hospital. We were supposed to have a picnic in the park, and while I sat on my bed dressed in a pretty pink dress and waiting for him to stroll me out of the hospital room, he sat fiddling with his phone and his eyes scrunched up in concentration as he typed furiously away on his phone.My excitement was long dead. I knew it had something to do with that Rosalind girl. She was getting in my way in every way and it was getting to my nerves.Ever since that day I woke up, I realized James wasn’t the same anymore. It was pretty obvious when he refused to divorce her. This wasn’t the James who fought for his pack. This one is weak, pathetic and repulsive.And worse. He’s beginning to forget me. I thought everything I did was sure to make him not, but it seems it was wearing off.I need to perform another ritual. A lot was banking on him not finding out.If he does, that would mean I’ve lost.Marina doesn’t lose. And if I woul

    Marina I could see the rage in his eyes as he turned towards me, his jaw hardening. “What was that for?”I refused to reply, causing his anger to grow as he waited for my reply.“Marina. What was that for?”I stubbornly pinned him with a look that showed I wasn’t in the mood for his attitude. “That’s for acting like that phone is more important than me. Have you forgotten you planned to take me to the park? All our plans?”He glared at me. “Is that what this is all about?”“Yes! You are ignoring me-““I don’t have time for this bullshit, Marina. Grow up. Not everything revolves around you.”My anger flared even more. “Don’t test me, James. You’ve been in a terrible mood and now you even don’t remember who I am anymore to you.”He ran his hand through his hair, the other fisting at him side. “Oh goddess what the hell do you want from me, Marina? Do you want me to fucking babysit you?”This attitude, the anger coming from him and his disregard for me.It all came to a point. “It’s tha

    Rosalind My life was a whole mess when I first started.

I had Aurora, Chris, Philip and even Mia. I had friends, a community and I was the one of the strongest Luna to ever exist. I was happy. And today was my wedding day. And also official inauguration and I was almost sobbing as I stared at myself in the mirror. I was getting married for the third time, but this was the first real naturists and was so so happy, but I had no idea why I was sobbing. “You’ve ruined the make up these women too so long to do with your sobbing. It’s pathetic really.” Aurora eyed me, and I cried even more, hurt by her words. “You have no idea what I’m going through Aurora!” I cried even more, and Mia sighed rolling her eyes. “That’s it, I’m going to start drinking early.” She turned and wal

    James I felt the dull ache in my chest and like the pain I felt in the last hour, I knew it wasn’t mine. And that fueled my desperation, and I pressed against the accelerator of the car, speeding up to the direction of where we were headed in the woods. “James you need to calm down-“ Mia started but I interrupted her. “Calm down? You can’t ducking tell me to calm down when the only things she’s been feeling in a hour is unending pain!” I growled as we flew into the woods. Mia sighed and pointed a tree and I expertly avoided it, almost bashing into it. She let out a sigh as we drove to a clearing and she undid her seat belt. “They are close.” And indeed as she said, I felt the bond, although fainter. She was dying. With a growl, I fell on my knees and turned into my wolf, much more better and stronger, and was safe from magic mind manipulation. Mia walked beside me, her lips pursed. She was also going to help, but I was owing her a lot. Anything was worth saving my p

    Rosalind I groaned as I opened my eyes and the cold air hit against my skin harshly. I tried to recognize where I was, tried to think of what happened but I couldn’t. I had no idea. My gaze came into focus and I looked around the dark room, the only source of light was the window. My arms were tied together and my legs too, and my mouth was tied with a piece of cloth. I was bound and I had no idea why or what- It alll came running back. The reason I was tied. Marina and Lola both working together to make my life miserable. Just in cue, the front door opened and the walked in, the only source of light being a candle that lit up as they did. Lola’s eyes met mine and she smirked. “Oh hey, Princess is awake. Just in time.” My heart broke at the fact that they knew each other and both caused my life to be hell in two ways. I couldn’t catch a fucking break. Marina chuckled. “She’s a princess alright. And I’m sure her king would be losing his fucking mind when he finds

    JamesThe whole day had been wonderful and I hated that we actually had to come out for some entirely different reason. And as Mia have a condition why she should help, I was tempted to say no, but I needed to make the world a better place for me and my mate.So I agreed, to connect her to one of the biggest fashion houses in France, since the owner happened to be my friend.Mia had no idea of personal space, and I kept wondering why she was so close to me despite what I have made clear.I belong to Rosalind.“So we have a deal. I’ll help you and your little mate.” She rolled her eyes, but then eyed my body seductively.“I would have lived another form of payment though. Does your mate like to share?”I frowned at her, getting up from the chair. “Don’t do that, Mia. Rosalind isn’t the type to mess with.”Mia rose a brow as I walked out of the room. “True, I wouldn’t doubt that. For someone who was a virgin until recently, seeing me flirt with you would be like death for her.” Her hand

    Rosalind We had sex for breakfast. And for lunch, and when we finally planned to get out of bed and shower, we had it some more. Werewolves have a worse libido, and now that James and I wee mated, I wanted nothing but to have sex with him every single time. And he wanted that too, because he couldn’t get his hands off me. Our suite has a jacuzzi and I wanted to make use of of it before it was time for what we really came here for, the fashion show and James’s ex. James was seated on the bed, his eyes lazily watching me as I pulled off the dress I wore, showing my completely bare body. I didn’t need to look to know he was instantly aroused. I was , and he was only looking at me. I turned to him and gestured to the jacuzzi. “Come join if you want, I want to soak for a bit.” I didn’t wait for a reply as i seductively left the room, my ass wiggling as I stepped out to the jacuzzi room. I didn’t need to look to know that he followed instantly. “You are such a tease.” He

    RosalindThe passion in James’s eyes as I asked the question added more fuel into the fire and he ran his eyes through my body.“Every fucking corner of this room, Rosalind.” He wrapped his hands around my waist and pushed me against his hard body, and wasted no time in claiming my lips against his.I hummed as his hands roamed around my body hungrily, his hands grabbing my head to deepen the kiss and his other hand on my ass, squeezing desperately. I moaned into his mouth, my fingers tugging at the strands of his hair.He separated our lips, latching himself onto my neck, dropping little bites, causing me to moan uncontrollably.“Rosalind, I need you, desperately.” He groaned as he continued kissing and biting against my skin:My brain was foggy and all I could think about was my desperate need to have him touch me everywhere.“Am I permitted, Rosalind? Can I worship your body?” He asked, looking me deep in the eyes with his darkened orbs.I bit my lip, “My body is all yours to do wh

    Rosalind Getting back to the city, I felt my power reduce to a manageable amount. It didn’t feel the same like when we were in our realm, and I could feel the significance, but I didn’t focus on that. I’ve always known James was a billionaire, but I didn’t enjoy the perks then. But now, standing in front of a five star hotel and feeling extremely out of place, I couldn’t help but marvel at the beauty. “This is where we would be staying, and also where the exclusive show would be holding.” James said as our bags were taken from us and we were ushered in. The inside of the building was even more magnificent than I could ever imagine. It was was like a palace, with lavish decorations and opulent furnishings, which was saying a lot, since I live with a billionaire, but this was more than I’ve ever seen. I couldn't help but feel a little overwhelmed by the grandeur of it all. James seemed to sense my unease and took my hand, leading me through the lobby to the elevator. "Don

    James Resisting Rosalind was getting harder and harder. How didn’t I notice she was perfect before? I was solely focused on Marina, but the minute Marina woke up, if felt like I could see again. She went from the unflattering doctor my grandfather forced me to marry, to the most beautiful I’ve ever had the pleasure of meeting. Was it too early to say I loved her? Because I did. I sighed, as I walked around the pack. I had to complete the mating bond, my wolf wanted that more than anything. Maybe tonight, when we get to the city, I could take her on a date. A perfect date for a perfect woman like her. I’ll plan it. The pack members looked nothing like the toxic and evil ones who cheered Shawn on when he tried to steal Rosalind’s powers. These ones were similar to my pack members before they were killed. Sweet, loving, a big family. Hm. Could they have been under a spell? Maybe Lola? I wouldn’t put it past her to try something that horrible. I walked towards the dungeon, a

    Rosalind James would be the end of me.I bathed, taking my time to wash off the hospital smell and the sweat and the pain and stress of the whole month off my body, and refused to think of anything else but how we conquered Shawn.I didn’t want to stress about Lola, James assured me that we just needed to look for her. We had the whole pack under my command, we could take her.But that didn’t lower my nerves. I needed to see her locked up. Shawn hurt me by pretending to be my friend, but she hurt me more, because she knew my darkest secrets, shared my happiness and sadness and was my personal person, but none of that was real.She needed to pay.I rinsed off the soap on my body and wrapped a towel around my body, stalling as I did my skin routine, ashamed that James would see me come out in just a towel.I wasn’t insecure about my body in anyway. I had a slim waist and a curvy lower body, with round breasts. I never paid attention to my body much, but when I used to work, all the men
