JamesI still couldn’t believe that I almost got beaten up in my own house, where I was supposed to be safe. I dragged my legs to the giant mirror in my room and stared at my injured lips, scenes of when he punched me flashing through my eyes.I could have fought back; I could have punched him as hard as he punched me, but I just didn’t want to prove his statement right.As much as I knew that Rosalind wasn’t safe with me like he said, I still wanted to leave space for doubt; I wanted her to still feel safe, even if it would just be for a while. But whether I was okay with it or not, I would eventually have to let her go; she was best safe when she was far away from me.It hurts, and stings that it was only the safest option; I would have to officially divorce her; I would have to forgo the new feeling that was growing towards her; I would have to start pretending like I wasn’t feeling any connection towards her.“I am so sorry, James.” Her soft and calm voice came at me.I turned arou
Rosalind.The bag I dragged with me was as heavy as the burden weighing on me; my anger didn’t make it any better.Just when I was giving my decisions a second thought, when I thought James wasn’t such an ass like I always thought he was, he disappointed me again by bringing back his past nonchalant attitude.I wasn’t in his house because I wanted to be; I was just staying there to be safe from whoever was after me. I still didn’t know who the person was yet; it would be very dangerous to stay alone.I thought he had changed, that he wanted me to be with him, but it was all in my head; he didn’t want it. All of that was a facade.I almost stumbled upon my small luggage in anger; my blood boiled and rushed; the hair on my skin prickled as I tried hard to fight back my tears that were threatening to spill. I stopped and stood still for minutes, looking up at the sky as I continued to force my tears back.Shawn wasn’t any better than James; they were the same ass, and they keep making my
JamesMy heart ached as I watched her walk out of the house; it was as if a part of me had been taken away by her. I didn’t feel whole anymore.A weary breath escaped my lips as I headed back to my room, my heart still racing with confusion and uncertainty. Words I said to Rosalind minutes ago kept echoing in my head, and I felt bad for saying those words to her.Maybe I should have been nicer with it; maybe I shouldn’t have said it in such a harsh way that made her leave angrily. I knew that was the only way out, but I could have been nicer with it. I could have told her all of that in a more presentable way.It was done though; all I couldn’t turn back the hands of the clock, even though I wished I could.I got back to my room and fell on the bed; my mind began to wander around. Questions arose in my head: where could she have gone to? Was she safe? I was uneasy; I wanted to know if she was fine. I sat up on the bed, dipped my hand into my pocket for my phone, and stared at the phone
JamesI got back into the house without Marina noticing; I had been feeling for the past few days that something was off. There was something somewhere that I had to know, and I wanted to find out.I took cover behind one of the pillars in the dining room while I watched her go over her phone in the main room. She murmured incoherent words to herself; I wished I could take a quick glance into her head to see what she was thinking, what she had been doing, and what she was up to. I could at least get this doubt that had been lingering on me off my mind for a while.I continued to watch her, monitoring everything she did, looking for anything that might seem suspicious, until the doorbell rang. I knew who it was, and I limped forward, taking cover around where I could see her clearly.“Who could that be?” I heard her murmur to herself as she stood up and headed for the door. She tried to check who was there through the hole, but after some minutes, she shook her head and pushed the door
Rosalind I took the last sip from the glass with me, hoping I could get my mind off James, but each sip I took sent my mind swaying around with the thoughts of him and how I loved him, how he never treated me the way I want.The harder I tried to get those thoughts off my head, the heavier it weighed on me. Looking around at all the people, dancing and laughing out wide, I wished I was like them, I wished there was something I was really happy about, but there was none.“Do you want another drink?” Cory asked.I shook my head; I thought the drink and chatting with him would help me get over James and all that has happened, but it wasn’t working like I expected, so I saw no reason in taking another one. “I am fine,” I muttered.“You don’t seem so,” he chuckled and moved from the chair he was sitting across from me before to sit beside me. “I think you need another drink to feel better.”I looked at him and forced a smile on my face, just so I wouldn’t look weird to him. “I... I think I
Rosalind.I tried my best to maintain my balance, but the alcohol was already making me feel tipsy. I looked around again, my eyes searching for Lola this time. I needed to find her so we could leave; I no longer felt safe being around Cory anymore.“Don’t you want to dance?” He asked, calling back my attention.I looked up at him and forced a smile onto my face again. I didn’t know what to do; he would know that I didn’t take the drink he gave me if I just decided to excuse myself. I had to go with it and pretend that I was really under the influence of the sedative he put inside the drink.I shook my head and placed my hand in his gently as he led me to the dance floor. My body tickled with irritation when his hand circled around my waist, pulling me closer to himself as we swayed to the music.My mind raced through different ways of escape, but I couldn’t really see the victory at the end of each escape plan I had. I looked into his eyes, wondering why he wanted to drug me exactly.
James.I still couldn’t believe that I once loved Marina. I couldn’t believe that I once thought she was a good person and Rosalind was the bad one. Marina deceived me; she played me like a fool. I didn’t notice; I didn’t imagine that she would be as worse as this.How could anyone wish someone who helped them in terms of need death? I could still remember very well how Rosalind stood by her when she was in a coma. She was always there to take care of her and attend to all her needs, but she was rather wishing her dead. How could anyone be so selfish and inhuman?Each second that passed reminded me of Marina’s vision and how I didn’t even know where to start.I banged the steering wheel and let out my frustration in a loud shout. Where do I go now? Where do I go in search of Rosalind? I never liked to speak to Shawn, not even after he came to my house to cause a scene and ended up causing a problem between Rosalind and me. Rosalind was as mad at him as I was, so it was certain that s
JamesMy temperature rose as I stood on the car, staring at the man who was starting to shake. I saw his hands trembling on the steering wheel.My gaze shifted to Rosalind, who was laying in the back seat, helpless and unconscious. My anger grew. How could they do this to her? The fact that her best friend knew about this only fueled my rage more.I looked at the strange man, and the urge to strike him and watch him bleed to death raced through my mind. I wanted him to go through the same agony and pain Rosalind must have gone through. He deserved it.“How dare you!” I growled under my breath.I jumped down from the hood of the car, but before I could do anything else, the man pushed the door open and took to his heels.“Stop right there!” I yelled as I rushed after him. “Stop right there!” I shouted again and grabbed a trash can as I ran and threw it at him, but he was quick to dodge it.I thought I could catch up with him, but he was as fast as I was. Suddenly, a car pulled over by
Rosalind My life was a whole mess when I first started. My husband was in love with a woman and married me to take care of her, I found out I was a werewolf, a special kind and my two best friends wanted my power and I almost died twice. But I had James. 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
