I comforted her, telling her it wasn’t that deep. “It is okay, Gem.” I kept telling myself to try taking the high road—it was a good day after all—but she was pushing my patience too far, and regrettably for her, she overreached herself. It got to me, but I didn’t plan on going as low as she did. I didn’t even care if Dimitri was wealthy; I wasn’t interested in his money and I certainly wouldn’t fuck anyone for it. My mother raised me better. Rubi called me a gold digger, saying, “You are nothing but a gold digging whore! I know you plan on seducing Dimitri so you can get hiswealth.” Enraged, I gave Rubi a savage glare for what she had said. There were so many ways this could have gone wrong, and they would have all ended in violence, but I had not intended to resort to violence. Taking a deep breath, I turned around and left the room, knowing that it would be best for her if I simply left. If I stay, I can’t be sure I will be able to control myself. “Hey, worthless person! I heard h
Dimitri’s POV I was in my office, almost ready to send Lance and Gabe off to my meeting, when Gemini burst in, panting violently, looking panicked, even scared, and I knew without a doubt that something was wrong. In an attempt to soothe her, Gabe drew nearer to her and laid a hand on her back.Gabe said, “Calm down, Gemini, slow breaths. What’s wrong?” which made her breathing settle a little before she continued. “Alpha,” she uttered, nearly in a whisper. I drew nearer to her, my head spinning more violently than it had in the previous few days due to the almost total grip of fear. “Gemini speak! What took place?” As her Alpha, I gave her an order. I stepped in front of her. “It is Rubi. My heart tightened at Gemini’s words, “She has gone crazy and she is attacking Luna.”Gemini finally added, horrified. Rubi! had to be the one inciting more drama, surely? Isabella was merely human, but I was worried for her safety if Rubi was going crazy. I knew how insane Rubi was—she tortured op
With her hands held just above her head and her hat strewn all over the bed, it looked incredibly incriminating. Our chests were rising from all of our struggling, and I could feel the intense sexual tension between us. Her eyes met mine, her body stilled as she lay beneath me, hovering over me, her perfume enticing me as her heated breath fanned against my skin. Luca loved this. He yearned to be so near to her that he could breathe in her scent. And dammit, I had to admit that I was also loving the view of my mate from this vantage point.I knew deep down that I had to let her go because, in the end, I guess it was already too late for that because my desires were stronger than my will and all I wanted at that moment was her. This was the brightest that had made me happy in days. There we were. I could feel my other member begin to grow larger and bigger like it suddenly developed a mind of its own. I eased my grip on her as my hands wandered across her face, tracing her curves until
I mumbled, “Because you are my… Guest,” and she gave a small laugh. She chuckled and said, “Ahh… but I recall the other night you calling me your prisoner and not your valued guest.” I grinned a little since I did remember that as well. I questioned her back, pretending to be innocent, “Doesn’t sound like something I would say now, does it?” She slapped me across the shoulder. She wasn’t a prisoner here, and my only reason for keeping her around was selfish, so I had to tell her that she was free to leave or stay herself. “But you need to know that you are my Guest in this mansion. You aren’t a prisoner and although I rather you not, you are free to go whenever you would like,” I sighed. I was astonished when she asked, “You want me to stay?” The only thing that was true was that I wanted her to stay because I needed her around and my heart burned for her. “Yes, I think the people around have gotten used to your company,” I said. Her eyes searched mine, hoping for more. It was comfort
Isabella’s POV I imagine someone felt free to help clean up the mess that Rubi had created before I came back because I was pacing back and forth in my already neat room because the wind and I were restless. Amidst all the neatness, the most peculiar item I saw was Gemini’s vase resting on a shelf. I could swear to you that I saw Rubi spike it and break it on impact. How did it do on my lowest shelf, all in one flawless piece? I couldn’t focus on the bizarre and disturbingly unusual nature of this. I had to make a bigger and more difficult choice. I had to get out of here quickly. I had really thought out what I was going to do. Naturally, no! Although I didn’t enjoy the thought of leaving either, I had no choice because everyone in this place has been incredibly kind to me and my presence was endangering their lives. I couldn’t give them back by endangering everyone’s life just by being here. I was already aware that leaving was necessary for everyone’s protection. for his security.
My name was prominently inscribed on it. as well as my true name. Simmons Isabelle. The paper’s pages were crammed with pictures and personal details about me, including my age, height, blood type, childhood, and all of my phony identification documents. My history of being in an orphanage was included, along with intimate details about Iris. It had every detail imaginable concerning my life. I cried, “What the hell?!” Why had Dimitri had me look into this? I had lied to him, and he knew it the entire time. Even though he knew my name wasn’t actually Natalie, he still accepted it. Hell, they all believed the falsehood. But to what end? What do they want to get? “Fucking liars,” I sneered, causing all the papers to scatter across the floor. I had to leave, get away from all of them. There was no way to trust them! Not one of them. I fell for their antics, even though they were all liars. I skillfully slipped out of the mansion, dodging everyone’s gaze. After a long time, I managed to e
Dimitri’s POV I spent a lot of time caring to the many Alphas that came to the inaugural crescent moon festival event. Right now, I was talking to the hundred other Alphas from packs all over the continent as well as the Alpha of the Rock Mountain pack. Our main topics of discussion were developing business partnerships and potential pack alliances. To be honest,every chat was dull, and I wasn’t giving the other Alphas my whole attention. All I could think of at the moment was Isabelle, and that too in the ideal blue outfit I had picked out for her. I was sure she would look amazing, like a goddess of the gods. However, where was she? Indeed, our friend is where? Luca questioned, giddy with anticipation at the prospect of seeing her. He insisted on me going to look for her, and even though I looked throughout the packed hallways, I was unable to locate her or her distinct smell. It’s easy Luca. We’ll see her shortly, so unwind.’ I mentally shot back at Luca. Isabelle has been consumi
Traditional folklore holds that the Horseman was a Hessian trooper who was killed during the Battle of White Plains on October 28, 1776. He was decapitated by a flying cannonball, and the shattered remains of his head were left on the battlefield while his comrades and troops hastily carried his body away.” “Thanks for the quick run down in history Alexa.” Gabe responded, “But why the bloody hell is he attacking our pack? what the hell do that guy want?” I said as I left my office, “He is here for Isabelle. He is after her, just like every other monster. I have to take care of him myself.” Gabe trailed behind me and asked, “What can we do?” I was reassured, “Make sure everyone is safe. I’ll handle this.” What kind of messed up situation did she find herself into for which she is being sought after? She wasn’t secure; I knew that other creatures were on her trail right now. I had to reach her before any of them could. “Yes, Lance and Dixie are busy trying to keep the crowd under contro
Isabella’s POV After what I had seen early this morning, I wasn’t very eager to leave my chambers and join the pack in their activities tonight when midnight finally arrived. Saerah must have been real. All of this couldn’t be made up in my head. However, Lance said that none of the pack members matched Saerah’s description. In addition to confirming Lance’s statement that there was no Saerah in the pack, I questioned. Gemini if I had gone entirely insane this time. Perhaps this time I had lost my mind. A knock on my door startled me out of my reverie, and a folded piece of paper slid in from underneath it. I hurried to the door to see who it was, but as I opened it, I saw that nobody was there. There was no one in the corridors. The sheet of paper that had been thrown in had a message scribbled on it when I picked it up. The message said, “Come meet me in the basement,” but it didn’t identify the sender.Could this have been sent by Saerah, I wondered? It was difficult to solve the
“Hello dear,” a voice that is ancient and foreign says. I nearly burst out of my skin. When I realised it was simply an elderly woman, I yelled, attempting to gather myself, “Fuck! Jeez, you almost gave me a heart attack.” She had a familiar appearance. Her eyes were ebony orbs, and her hair was completely black. Her features were rather distinct. She had a well-defined chin, and her face was pale and wrinkled, nearly devoid of blood. She turned her face to the floor and apologised, saying, “Sorry, I didn’t mean to frighten you,Luna.” I smiled and reassured him, “No, it’s okay.” Yes, I can now recall where I first noticed her face—during pack training earlier today, she was observing me from a distance. When Lance introduced me to the new pack members, she was also keeping a careful eye on me. Was she one of the newly introduced rogues as well? I said, “Who are you? I saw you today.” With a faint smile that was having trouble finding its place on her face, she added, “Yes, you remembe
Hey,” I smiled in response.“My name is Andres.” He greets the audience. I grinned and said, “I’m Isabelle.” Before hurriedly leaving, Gabe said, “Luna, I’ll see you later. Dimitri is requesting to see me.” Andres asks uncertainly, “So are you really the Alpha’s mate?” I replied, “Yeah.” My response caused his eyes to widen. He surprises me by saying, “That’s good news then. You are going to help to break the pack’s curse right?”I exclaim, “What curse?” There was no curse that I knew of. “I don’t know… Alpha Dimitri didn’t really give all the details. He just told us that there’s a curse and it will be broken soon.” Andres clarified. Why didn’t anyone want to tell me about this? The pack has been cursed. There might be something I might do to assist. He said, “Thank you for telling me this.” Before I went, Andres said, “It’s no problem. I’ll see you later Luna.” Why would Dimitri never tell me about this? Since they were also my pack, I needed to know if the pack was cursed. I was obli
Isabelle’s POV Gemini, Lance, and Gabe greeted us as we returned to the pack. Without giving me another glance, Dimitri and Lance went straight to his office. I hope Dimitri won’t revert to the icy alpha I knew, but I suppose it was enjoyable while it lasted. I suppose my belief that our encounter at his glass palace held great significance for him was irrational.“So, Isabelle, tell us everything that happened between you and Alpha Dimitri after he took you away from the club. Where did you guys go? What happened?” Gemini enquired with inquisitive eyes. She and Gabe appeared to have been anticipating our return in order to learn the main points of all that transpired while our absence. These two were true gossips. Gabe’s intense gaze made my face flush. “Come on Isabelle. Spill it already! I know something happened between you two last night. He even forgot about his planned meeting with the rogues.”“See we knew it, you look so guilty. Now say it otherwise I’m not going to tell you a
He snarls, obviously irritated. He pulls his phone out of his jeans pocket and flings it onto the counter without turning to look. He just needs to take a brief look before hitting the speaker button. Lance said on the other end, “Dimitri, where are you?” “Lance,” yells Dimitri. “Now’s not the right time.” Even though I’m doing my best not to make any noise, it’s really difficult when Dimitri continues to suck on my breasts in this manner. I have to use my hand to conceal my own groans. “Okay. Then I just want to tell you the new rogues are already here at the pack. You know they need to have a word from you.” Lance adds. “Fuck!” Dimitri halts, muttering obscenities. Before the phone ends, Dimitri says, “Lance, you know the procedure. Make them comfortable, till I get there.” “Shit!” he exclaims, glancing down. It seems to me that he intended for us to stay here for a while longer, but he needs to go back to the pack to deal with the new rogues. He gives me a dissatisfied look and say
I gulped as he started thrusting in me after he put his hands around my waist and I felt his firm manhood against my opening. My claws scrape his back as he continues to pound into me, and I tighten my grip. Now that his thrust was deeper and faster, his entire length could finally fit inside me. I let out groans as I hold on to him for dear life. “Isabelle,” he screeches. “Fuck. You are so tight. You feel so good, baby.” I’m shocked as he stands up straight, raises my legs, and rests them on his shoulders. He can now enter deeper thanks to his new position, and he keeps fucking me hard, his balls hitting my clit with each stroke. He goes in closer once again and plants a messy yet intense kiss on my lips. When I came all over his dick, I was at the height of my climax. Just in time, he pulls out and dumps his load onto my stomach. By the time he finally fell on top of me, we were both breathing heavily. Before one of us speaks, we give ourselves time to catch our breath. He sighs, “
There’s sorrow in his voice, like he’s trying so hard not to lose control but still can’t. My heartbeat quickens. It was up to me to decide this. This was my chance to say anything to halt it if I wanted to. The Alpha in front of me is staring at me with such intensity that it’s killing me, and my eyes dart over him. I can see by the expression on his face that he meant business when he urged me to get him to stop. Once more, he gives me a fierce kiss, tearing my lips apart, but then he backs off. He says impatiently, “Fuck Belle. Tell me to stop.” “No,” I say in a murmur that verges on a wail. I draw him in closer, burying my face in his shoulder as I wrap my arms around his neck. I feel like I’m losing him again —why is that? I feel that he’ll stay away from me since we both realize that when we’re around each other, we lose our self-control. The notion of being apart from him makes me cringe. I still feel the anguish of his disregarding my existence and avoiding me. That is a terri
Isabelle’s POV I give him a heartfelt kiss. I have so many feelings inside of me that it feels like my chest is going to burst. His lips against mine seems so natural. He presses our lips closer, and I can’t help but sigh. I nearly lose my head over what he just admitted to me. It amazes me that he has never desired anyone else the way he desires me right now. I pull up my white flag and give myself over to him. This was my heart’s desire. The heart wants nothing more than to lose me in his embrace, and that’s all it desires. Currently, at this very moment. To say this, I move away from him. “Dimitri,” I yell, still gasping from our passionate kiss. After I break up our kiss, he looks at me angrily, as if he couldn’t go a single second without it. He looks straight into my eyes as though he’s trying to figure out what I’m going to say. I mutter, “I’m sorry.” I was hurt. I did those things, I didn’t mean any of it. I shouldn’t have done what I did in the club; it was so stupid. It was
Look at him for a long moment before I sneer. I finally let out the emotions that had been building inside of me. “So, this is all about you being my Alpha protector again, isn’t it? So you actually felt nothing when you watched me dancing with another man,” I said. He looks a little confused and asks, “What the hell are you talking about?” With obvious irritation in my voice, I ask, “What about you, Dimitri?” I let out, feeling my eyes burn from the tears that welled up, “Did you ever think about what you were doing by avoiding me for days? Not speaking to me? I’m your bloody mate for goodness sake!” He gives me a startled expression as I say this. When he realized what I had said, his eyes widened. “How in hell did you find that out?” “I figured it out when Stefan kidnapped me, him and Tilda mentioned that we were mates,this pain in my chest wouldn’t let me be. And it is all because you’re the one destined for me as my mate. If you didn’t want me so much as your mate why didn’t you
