Kalan“I want you,” I whispered into her ear. Her body trembled against mine and I couldn't stop the grin that spread on my face. She looked so delicious right now. My hands went down her skin and stopped in between her thighs, stroking her skin and gauging her reaction. She didn't disappoint. She was a mess. She gasped, her eyes barely open, I didn't go further, just squeezing her thighs. Suddenly, her arousal wafted through the air, attacking my nose as I took in that wonderful scent. I groaned, she would be the death of me. “A few days ago,” I started slowly, my tongue on her nape, trailing to her ears, while my hands traced down her spine. “...my hands were everywhere…” I stroked her arm, savoring her whimpers. “...all over your body…” She let out another gasp, stuttering as she said, “But...but...you were just...helping me, nothing more,” cute. She bit her lip and it drove me completely crazy. My hands continued to explore her body. “...it wasn't anything sexual,"“Hmm, it
LyssaNo! There was no way this was happening!How can that bitch wake up after everything I have done?! She was like a pesky insect that I was just unable to get rid of, no matter what I tried to do! How the hell could this have happened?! She had a very slim chance to live! Why wasn't she dead yet?!The word spread around that Kalan had rushed her over to the infirmary, barking and shouting out orders for her to get treated immediately and even going as far as donating his blood to help her get better! It hurt me so much to hear that! If only Kalan hadn't meddled, she'd be six feet under right now!Kalan nearly died because of her, yet he still wants her. Yet, he still wants to be around her. It had to be sorcery. There was no valid explanation as to why Kalan's behavior had changed so quickly and how she snatched my man away from me with a flick of the wrist. She must have bewitched him with a spell from her werewolf pack of something. I hate that she has her filthy claws sunk d
RavennaI took in a deep, nervous breath. If I agree to stay, our relationship will go on to the next level, and that feels so scary and exciting to me at the same time. Was I really ready for this? I really had strong feelings for Kalan, but was I ready to act on them so quickly?I relied on my gut to take me through this and to make me decide what to do next. I looked back and saw Kalan looking all vulnerable and baring himself out to me. It was then I realized that I don’t have to be scared anymore. I just have to acknowledge the feelings I had and act on them. I turned around, dropped the tray back onto the nightstand, and then went to sit beside Kalan.He was trembling. I didn't know if it was from anticipation or fear, but it excited me all the more. His shaking hands caressed my face as he captured my lips in a very soft passionate kiss. It grew deeper gradually as he pinned me back down onto the bed, slowly grinding against me.He slowly pulled off the straps of my nightgown,
LyssaThe legendary sword?He wants me to bring Karazcht, the sword that has been stashed away inside the Main house, in a house filled with Lycans, who would kill me if they catch a whiff of my betrayal. He wants me to go on a suicide mission? But if it was the only way I could get the potion, I had to find a way to get it without sneaking suspicion. It was way better than any of the vampires sneaking into the Territory.“I like that little glint in your eyes, it shows that you’re planning something, right?” The Vampire lord’s gaze burned through me as he leant down, “Well we can’t just let you off that easy. Before you bring Karazcht to me, you will let three of my men fuck you senseless before I decide to spare your life,”“What? No! I would only agree to that after the sword is here, that’s my only condition,” I replied firmly.The lord’s sparkling eyes went dull as I said that. It seemed like he lost interest then. “Fine. Then let's speed up the process, shall we?” He clapped hi
KalanShe turned around, dropping the tray back onto the nightstand and sitting beside me. My heart raced as I trembled. Does she want to stay with me? The anticipation that filled me was nearly unbearable. My hands shook as I caressed her face and captured her plump lips in a passionate kiss. I pinned her back down onto the bed, slowly grinding against her, unable to control myself. I want to ravage her right now.I slowly pulled off the straps of my nightgown, teasingly, exposing her full breasts that enticed me to no end. I grasped her breasts, cupping them in my hands, teasing her nipples as she let out little gasps of breath.My lips trailed down, eyes trained on her breasts and I caught a nipple in my mouth. I sucked, squeezed, and lightly rolled her nipples in between my teeth, relishing the uncontrollable moans she let out.I decided to stop teasing her and licked a wet trail down her body, stopping in between her thighs. She looked down at me and I could see her lips quive
RavennaI rushed to my room, my heart almost falling out of my mouth. That was a close call, I breathed heavily. Perspiration clouding my vision. Damn!Kalan could have found out about Karina, but fortunately, he didn't. Karina was back? Why now of all times? I blinked repeatedly, briefly stopping in my tracks.I know I can’t answer this question by myself, so immediately after I got into my room, I locked the door behind me and quickly dialed my mother's number.“Hello? Ravenna, you hung up on me!” My mother scolded me through the phone as soon as she picked me up. I winced. “I'm sorry, mom, you just surprised me, that's all. I was a bit taken aback by the news. So, Karina is back home now? Is she aware of the recent developments? About me and Kalan?” I prodded, feeling a bit of anxiety lurking in my heart.“Yes, she is quite aware of it and she has no misgiving about it. She doesn't mind and she wouldn't have to, since she's currently under house arrest according to your father's
KalanMy hands trembled with rage, as I read the note. It did specify that she was pregnant, but at the same time, Lyssa never fails to blame Ravenna for all her misfortunes. I was the one at fault here, but she's still being childish and petty, thinking that Ravenna was out to get her.Lyssa being pregnant was something I considered out of the realm of possibilities. It was possible, but I didn't want to picture it ever happening. It wasn't impossible, but it was something I tried not to think about. Unfortunately, my worst nightmares were coming through. Reading further, I realized that she had run into the woods and was hiding recently. Which meant that she wanted to give birth to the child and raise it on her own just to spite me. Typical Lyssa. I wasn't surprised.I hated her so much for her recent manipulation and her useless antics, but at the same time, I blamed myself for not using protection the last time we had sex.That day, she visited me for us to go out on a date but
RavennaThe silence that filled the air was deafening. I understand that Kalan has to take his time to think about it. I was being selfish by asking him that, but I just wanted to know where I stand in all of this.If Lyssa was to have his child, then there was no need for me to be here. I knew and could feel it in my bones that the population would come to a consensus that would let Lyssa marry Kalan, not only because she carried his child, but also because they would want a Lycan to rule over them instead of another breed. “Let's...let's wait till the child is born,” Kalan muttered, quite unsure of himself. I blinked in mild surprise. It wasn't quite the answer I was looking for, but if that child is actually his, I wouldn't want Kalan to start hating on his child just because of me. That would be wrong, childish, and insensitive of me if I ever resort to that. It was his child after all. I didn't want them to suffer and get rejected by their father because of my selfish needs.
RavennaKalan looked stunned as if I had punched him. His mouth opened and closed, so shocked that he wasn't able to form words.The room equally went painfully quiet, as everyone took in my words and were staring at me in disbelief. It broke my heart to see Kalan in such a dazed and confused state, but it had to be done. No matter what I said or did, Kalan wouldn't have listened to me anyway. Left for me, I would've kept this secret to the grave. I just had to do it. I had to let him know the truth no matter how painful it would be.Without saying a word and maintaining his speechless expression, Kalan left in a haste, not able to look at me.I swallowed thickly, blinking back hot tears that threatened to pour from my eyes. It had to be done. I repeated in my head, trying to console myself.Calix walked over to me menacingly, all traces of his earlier affection gone, leaving an empty, angry shell.“How could you do that?” He started off, his voice low, dark, and threatening. My b
KalanI held Nevan close to me until her sobs subsided. Stroking her hair, I thought long and hard about what I was going to do.After thinking long and hard about a suitable plan, I finally managed to come up with a good one. I would have avoided it if I could, but this was the only way. I know nobody was going to be on board with my plan and I didn’t expect them to. It is my decision and I don't want anyone to be involved in it. If it comes down to saving Nevan, I would do it in a heartbeat. The only problem now was breaking the news to the people. They of course deserved to know my plans before I dived headfirst into them, yet I couldn't stop cringing, imagining their expressions and the look of pain on their faces once I told them.It definitely wouldn't be easy, especially to Ravenna. I just wish she won't be too angry with me and I hoped she’d move on after I’m gone. I wouldn't want her to wallow in sadness and depression. I would love it if she finds happiness out there w
LyssaMy heart thumped inside my chest loudly as I stumbled back, feeling pale and managing to grip my bedpost to keep me from falling. Why is the Vampire lord sending a letter to Kalan at this critical time? Is he trying to reveal my involvement to him? What was I going to do then?Before I could even process my thoughts, the door swung open, revealing a guard who had been standing in front of my room all this while. “We have to go, Miss Lyssa. Lady Vieva and Master Caelum have requested the presence of everyone in the receiving room. It's very urgent,”My eyes widened. “What is this all about?”The guard frowned, scratching his head a bit. “Well, it has to do with the letter that Leader Kalan received earlier,”I stepped out of the room, following him intently.Seizing the opportunity, I proceeded to ask him rapid fire questions. “Why? Has Kalan read it yet? Why are we all being summoned to the receiving room? Is it that serious?”“You'll just have to wait and see, Miss. I'm not so
RavennaI stood there, stunned and unable to let out a breath. Out of all the possibilities out there, I never thought for once that the vampires would be the ones who stole Karazcht. Personally, I’ve never met a vampire, but with all their history and ways, I regard them as one of the most ruthless and bloodthirsty species ever to exist. Them having Karazcht in their grasp was really a nightmare I wasn't sure how to wake up from.They promised not to wage a war, how are we supposed to trust them? Their reputation was really filthy and cruel, how were we supposed to know if they'd keep their word? Also, marrying Nevan off to the vampires? Out of the question. Nevan had grown to be someone I regarded as my sister. I would never let a bunch of egotistical maniacs get her in any way.Still, the matter on hand was Karazcht.We had to find a way to get it, or history would repeat itself again. This time, I wasn't so confident in our victory. My necklace suddenly felt heavy on my ches
KalanI took the letter from the servant with shock and confusion written on my face. The vampires have a new lord? That was news. After my father slaughtered the former king and his people, I hadn't thought someone would take over the throne this soon, especially not in my era. I grew concerned as the weight of the letter emotionally dragged me down. What was going on? As much as I tried to fight it, deep down I knew something was wrong somewhere, but what?I tried to calm myself down as my thoughts went wild. I grew light-headed, thinking of whether this letter had something to do with the disappearance of Karazcht. It wasn't so far-fetched to think so. The vampires could have taken it, under the orders of their new leader.My stomach twisted in knots, just thinking about it. If it was true, then we're screwed. They would have the upper hand and can easily wipe us out if they wanted to.A small hand covered mine and squeezed, pulling me out of my dangerous thoughts. I looked do
Ravenna“It was all my fault.” I couldn't help but think as I pressed against Kalan’s hard, naked chest. We just finished making love and no matter how I tried to look at the brighter side of things, it was impossible to. Thinking about how Kalan could possibly lose his life by the slightest inch of stress broke my heart. All week, Kalan has been stuck to me by the hip, never leaving me unless urgent.We'd gone on walks in the garden several times this week, had multiple dates, made love on different occasions. Kalan did his best to make me feel less depressed and happy. But that just increased my guilt further.How could he be thinking of making me happy when it was his life on the line? How could he love me before loving himself? Whenever I looked into his eyes, there was always nothing but pure adoration and affection in his gaze that always brought me to tears.He assured me that he was fine and equally admitted it was his fault and I struggled to think less about those times
LyssaIt has been a week. It has been a fucking week since Kalan has been discharged and that was the last time I saw him. His words still haunted me no matter how much I stopped thinking about them. “I'll have you all know, I will never regret giving Ravenna my blood,”Those words angered me, making me realize how much Kalan had changed. With the way he was so protective of Ravenna, touching her with utmost possessiveness, and his eyes filled with affection...those were the luxuries I never had while dating him and that pissed me off more than anything. How dare that skank victimize herself and hog all Kalan's attention for herself? She's being too selfish and it made me furious.I could still vividly remember the look of hatred Kalan had on his face the moment he uttered those words. I was a bit taken aback and shaken at the sight. I knew we were currently on bad terms, but for Kalan to display such hate? I knew for a fact that I had lost my Kalan. Knowing that just made me wan
KalanMy eyelids feel heavy on my face as I constantly try to open them to no avail. I could hear voices all around me, speaking, saying things I couldn't understand. It irked me. Why couldn't I move? Why couldn't I open my eyes? “...Kalan…” I heard a familiar voice call out. My heart swelled in my chest on hearing it and it made me want to break out from this darkness to meet them. With every strength I had, I managed to force my eyes open and my limbs to also work in tandem.I regretted that decision immediately, as my body spasmed painfully. My limbs felt like they were electrocuted and my eyes and head hurt so badly.“Kalan! Don't just sit up like that!” Ravenna scolded, although her voice was filled with worry and concern. My mouth quivered on hearing her voice, and I quickly rested my head back against my pillow. Bracing myself for the second time, I slowly opened my eyes again, adapting to the bright light and colors that affected my vision. Once in focus, I realized t
RavennaTaking in deep breaths, I forced myself to calm down. Caelum wasn't going to ruin my mood, I would make sure of it. Instead, my thoughts went over to the date Kalan and I would have later this evening. I bit my lip and giggled like a schoolgirl, just at the thought. Everyday with Kalan, I just found myself spiraling deeper and deeper in love with him. It felt like a really long time since we first met. I mean, yes there was too much going on, but it was easier to handle with Kalan by my side.I rummaged through my closet, trying to pick the perfect dress to wear for our date. This date might not seem like such a big deal, but it meant a lot to me. With everything going on, I just needed to know that I was at least cared for a bit by the one my heart cherished, or else I'd just break down. A champagne pink colored sequin gown hung in the middle of my closet as if taunting me to put it on immediately. The top of the gown had tiny crystals that blended with sequins, the colo
