She was slicing through the wind, relishing the adrenaline surging through her. Woods were her sanctuary where she bloomed and thrived. Ryker ran after her, chasing his female like a clingy lover. About forty minutes into running, she suddenly collided with someone and found herself skidding backward by the impact. The scent that emanated from the stranger smelt familiar. She looked up to meet the other wolf's enraged eyes. Her instincts turned sharp, sensing the threat. She had a hunch about who this wolf was and her intentions but didn't express it and waited for her action. She never attacked anyone first- it was her rule. The other wolf leaped in the air and charged towards her at lightning speed. Riyaga quickly moved away, having already sensed her intentions. The wolf roared in frustration before shifting towards her and snapping her jaw in a warning. Riyaga remained calm and composed, as the wolf circled her in a predatory grace. Riyaga yawned, feeling already bored. It was f
“I am alright, Ryker,” Rosa sighed. Ryker wasn't convinced. “Drink this,” he put the bowl to her lips, looking all serious. She took a sip and her face scrunched. “You made this?” she asked. He gave her a nod and motioned for her to finish this. “It’s just a scratch,” she mumbled before begrudgingly sipping on the concoction. The wound was going to heal on its own but no, Sir Alpha wanted to play healer. This was the third concoction he had made her drink. "I love you," Ryker confessed, his eyes holding a tender emotion as he gazed at her. They were lying on the bed face to face. He didn't want this night to be over. He didn't want to stop looking into her eyes. Her rosy lips eased into an enchanting smile and he was entranced. The ache in his heart grew at the thought of leaving her behind tomorrow. He wasn't afraid of bloodsuckers but of nights that he would have to endure without her. How was he going to survive without her? Her face, her smile, her scent, he was going to miss
“You mixed the potion in her food?” Clovis asked in surprise. Ryker nodded his head. “I had no other way to stop her. I know she is a fierce fighter and can fight bloodsuckers but still I couldn’t do that,” he explained. He had no doubts on her capabilities but it was his protective side that had him doing this. “Does it remind you of something?” Clovis asked, playing with his food.“What?” Ryker ased, sipping on his ale. “Seven years ago when we had entered the capital to attack the royals and free your father?” he reminded him. Of course, he remembered that time vividly. She had mixed something in their food that caused them to sleep the whole day. He learned his father’s execution had already taken place when he woke up and he couldn’t do anything about it. They didn’t even give them his body. That was one of the worst days of his life. The pain was still fresh. “Rosa had also mixed a potion in our food that had us sleeping for a whole day,” he added. Ryker drew in a heavy bre
"Aaah," Rosa moaned, turning sides. She thought the pain would dissipate but it was only getting worse. She was aware of women enduring similar hardships in pregnancy but at least, they have their male with them. But she was all alone, lying in the bed, pining and suffering. She sat up, tears brimming her eyes. She put her hand on her flat stomach and worried how she was going to endure it all alone. "Come back, Rye. Your princess needs you," she whispered to the air followed by a teardrop spilling over her eye. Allowing herself to wallow in her suffering for a moment, she brushed away her tears and drank a glass of water. She had already consumed herbs the healer had given her but the pain still hadn't eased. She got down from the bed and decided to see the healer as the pain had gotten really worse."Oohh," teh woman clutched the edge of the table as a wave of sharp pain ripped through her stomach. Only after it receded, she ease and resumed her walking. Good thing the healer had
Rosa was coming back home after her round around the clan. Her belly had started to grow now. She would take a round around the clan daily to ensure everything was in place. The healer had also suggested she go on walks, so it was like killing two birds with one stone. However, she wasn't very pleased with having Arlick hovering behind her all the time. He was taking Ryker's instruction a little too seriously. He wouldn't leave her side throughout the day despite her insistence. Even though he was here, his mate missed him just as much as other warriors' mates did. She felt bad for Istas. "We are gaining on bloodsuckers. I am certain victory will be ours," Alrick remarked. A bright smile played over Rosa's face as she nodded in agreement. They had received two letters yesterday from the battleground. One for all and other only for her. The formal letter explained the current situation in the battleground and how werewolves had gotten the better of vampires. Apparently, werewolves
She didn't know who to approach and with whom she should share her concerns. She still didn't know if it was just a nightmare or a warning. She felt uneasy since the nightmare. Her motherly instincts were telling her to stay alert and watchful. "Do you know any witch here?" Rosa questioned Adgar at last. Adgar shot her a puzzled look. "A witch?" he asked to confirm. She nodded. Asgar thought for a moment. "There is one but she stays deep in the woods, quite far from here," Adgar informed her, still eyeing her with confusion. "How far from here?" she asked, squinting against the sunbeams. They were in the training ground, watching little kids training. "A day," he answered. "If you don't mind me asking, why are you enquiring after a witch?" he asked, she caught a glimpse of concern in his eyes. Witch were strange species and barbarians steered clear from them. Especially after what had happened to Ryker. They were short-tempered and malicious. Rosa exhaled a sigh. "I had a d
"She cursed your mate for setting you free but your bond broke the spell. It enraged her and now she is back to take her revenge," the witch disclosed. Rosa took in the information with a grave countenance. "She loved your father and he ditched her after finding his mate. She is seething in vengeance since then," the witch added. "But it wasn't my or my child's fault that he abandoned him," Rosa countered, a bit frustrated. Why did she want to punish him for her father's sins? She could punish her if she wanted but why her pup? "It wasn't your fault but you are his blood and she has vowed to destroy your bloodline," the witch revealed with a straight face. Rosa was astounded to hear that. "This is unfair," she uttered, still reeling from the revelation. "What happened to her was unfair too," the witch shrugged, unaffected by her reaction."I..I want to save my child," Rosa shared, her eyes sincere and desperate. Her motherly instincts had taken over. She could fight her physicall
She propelled her feet to keep walking despite the wild pumping of her heart. The powerful screams caused the caves to shake violently but she didn't pause. The rest had stayed back, only she and Rory walked the dark path. The cave opened to a wide area. The noise of waterdrops hitting the ground resonated through the room. "Go back," the witch warned in a malicious voice. Rosa gulped. "I can't. Not before I earn your forgiveness," she answered earnestly. The witch chuckled darkly. "The only thing I'll give you is pain and grief," she barked menacingly. "Why punish her for her father's sins? She didn't ask him to commit them," Rory intervened, looking upward. "I'll punish her because she is his blood and flesh. He betrayed me for his family so I'll finish his damned family," her voice boomed through the quiet hall, causing a stirring in the rocks. "I understand your rage and I agree that everything my father did was absolutely wrong. He had this habit of using and manipulating
Rosa peeked out the window and felt a profound ache searing her heart upon seeing the poor condition of Avalona. The war had taken a toll on her Kingdom- the roads were in ruin, several shops were closed, and demolished buildings lined the streets. Her heart broke at the miserable sight of her country. But then she remembered the sun was still shining upon them. They were still breathing and moving freely. It could have been way worse than this if they had lost the war. With that thought her perception of the view before her changed drastically. The sight that lay beyond her no longer testified to the persecution that marred Avalona but to the undying spirit of her people. She was determined to restore Avalona to its former glory. Avalona will rise again, stronger than ever. Barbarians and Avalona had joined forces to hasten the restoration of her kingdom. It would take some months but she knew Avalona would revive again. She'll see to it herself. "Everything will be fine,' Ryker as
"Why was I not informed?" he demanded sharply. He had just found out from Adgar about her visit to the witch and now he was both shocked and scared. "I couldn't avoid it any longer and you were fighting vampires," she explained. Her calm countenance contrasted with his distressed expression. "I told you I would come back running to you no matter what I am doing, didn't I?" he reminded her in a stern tone."What if things wouldn't have turned out as you expected" he asked, his eyes conveying his fear. Her features softened. Rosa was aware his anger had stemmed from his concern for her. "I would have never visited her if I wasn't convinced. You know me, Rye. I will never put our babies in harm's way," she coaxed him, running her fingers through his long hair."I would have killed myself if something had happened to you," he admitted, kissing her forehead. She needed to know it wasn't only about her any longer. He would have been devastated, if luck hadn't favored them."What d
He rolled his tongue on her small clit before giving it a hard suck. She gasped and shuddered, arching her back upward. A sheen of tears glistened in her eyes invoked by his sweet assault on her sensitive nerves. The craving and longing of months had heightened her pleasure. He had spread her legs wide, clamping down on them with his hands, and ate her like he was starved for eons. He was famished. She had to lift her head to see him beyond her round belly. "Goodness," she gasped, falling quickly back on the pillow, as he shoved his tongue inside her heat. She wept, overwhelmed by pleasure as he fucked her with his tongue. She came hard, quenching his thirst. But this was not it. He emptied her pussy only to fill it with his cock a moment later. His massive, long girth. She struggled to breathe as he stretched her wider and penetrated her to her limit. Sitting back on his heels, he pulled her lower part on his lap and vigorously pounded into her. Rosa beheld the glorious sight of hi
He was escorted to where the celebration was happening. The hoots and chirps resonated in the air. The villagers surrounded him curious to hear war tales but he couldn’t bring himself to even glance at them as he was busy searching for her. Where was she? He searched everywhere but to no avail. Did she not come to see him? That is not possible. “Hadar..where are you lost? Is everything alright?” one of the villagers asked. He blinked absently at the man before saying he was thinking something. Rosalie couldn’t help but giggle at his situation. He was really impatient. She decided to head back home. Ryker leaped to his feet when he accidentally located her moving around the people. She was leaving. He immediately left the celebration to follow her. He was impatient and famished. The man chased her with quiet steps as she made her way into the house. Rosalie got inside his room and was about to take off the cloak when the door was thrown wide open. She spun at the speed of lightning
"Ugh," Rosa whined in frustration, tousling her braid. She had been trying to tame her wild hair for so long but in futile. She was so close to throwing a fit right now. Due to her pregnancy, her emotions had been all over the place. Her frustration had peaked and her endurance power had reduced. "What happened? Why are you crying" Istas came rushing over to her, worried.Rosa pointed towards her hair that was going in all directions. Istas eyed her hair in confusion. "I am not able to discipline them, how will I discipline my baby?" she expressed her concern. Istas knew better than to poke her at this moment. She knew it was her hormones, not her."They are just hair..let me set them for you," she offered the help. "Will you?' Rosa's eyes sparked with hope. "Of course, you are our luna," Istas replied smiling. "Just wait a moment," she added before disappearing out of the room. She returned a moment later carrying the oil she used for cooking. She applied the oil to her hair sp
