Kaidaira's POV We didn't sleep all night. We spent it chatting and telling hilarious stories that I don't think are real. Sebastian is the one I love. Come to think of it, why didn't the moon goddess make him my first mate? Instead I had to pass through the pain and stress. But it's all over now.I didn't mention my personal life to him, about my pack, my dad, Valtor. I just don't think it was the right time. The chat was too lovely to be destroyed by a sad memories.He left early this morning to get some things in order. Some things he refused to mention but I don't have any doubt about him. He also said we will move into our home when he gets back. And I'm so excited. It's like unlocking a new chapter of my life. The days of darkness, trauma and lack of love are all over. And now I'm stepping into days of light, peace of mind, unconditional love, sparks and fireworks in my belly. I can never get enough of these. While celebrating my new life, engrossed in my sweet imaginations, Am
Getting to his SUV, Sebastian unlocks the car and gently places me in the front passenger seat and closes the door. I watch him with keen interest as he walks to the other side of the car before hopping in. “I have somewhere I'd like you to visit before we go home. I assure you, you'll love it.” I nod in response, getting a warm smile from him before pressing down on the brake pedal while pushing the engine button. The engine roars to life, the sound reverberating around the open space. The drive begins, quiet and awkward. The only sound in the car is the song from the speaker. Nobody will believe we spent the whole night chatting like we've known each other for years. Probably noticing how weird the silence was becoming, Sebastian decides to bring up a conversation.“My Rose, did you grow up with any siblings?” he says, smiling warmly as always with his eyes still fixed on the highway. That is an easy question, I got asked that many times while I was in highschool.Turning to face
We spent two hours enjoying our ice creams, exchanging our flavors every now and then. Sebastian told me about the time Roman, his younger brother, got lost in a mall. Their parents spent hours searching for him, only to find him stuffing himself with candies at a candy store and was barely able to move.Roman must really be something. I now understand why Sebastian refers to him as annoying.The drive to our house isn't as awkward as when we were going to the ice cream shop. This time we are singing along to the song playing in the car and laughing each time either of us make a mistake.After driving for a few minutes, Sebastian finally turns off from the wide and smooth highway, driving through a dusty, a bit rough and smaller path. The tall tree, the blossoming flowers, the birds chirping… hmmm…so comforting Ahhh I love nature Navigating his way through the woods, Sebastian finally pulls up into a breathtaking clearing. At the centre of the clearing, stands the most beautiful hou
Sebastian's POV Catherine!? Who told her I was bringing my mate back home? What's she even doing here today? Roman! I'm going to strangle him for real. Catherine's presence here and now won't give me the opportunity to have my mate to myself on our first day together in our house. “Oh! You must be Kaidaira. My brother's beautiful mate.” I love Catherine but at this moment, my hand itches to kill someone. “Yes. You must be Catherine.” Kaidaira replies with a broad smile. “Oh yes. I'm Sebastian's favorite sibling.” She always brags about that. I can picture Roman's “here we go again” expression if he was here. “My brothers have been talking about you. Sebastian has been unable to sleep since he found you.” She teases, raising her brows at me.When did Catherine start learning to be annoying? I bet she has been taking lessons from Roman. “Come see the dishes I'm making in the kitchen.” And with that she takes Kaidaira along with her. I don't wish to be away from my mate but stayi
Valtor?!” The name coming from my mouth feels like puke. Now I see why Roman was shifting so uncomfortably. Valtor has been my long time rival for as long as I can remember. When my father was the Alpha of this pack, his father was always causing trouble with our pack. I'm having so many negative feelings right now. The fact that all these hurtful things happened to my mate hurts me greatly. Those people didn't deserve her. My mate had to go through all these in the hands of these people. Taking a seat on my office chair, I absent-mindedly swirl the whisky in my glass. The third glass I guess. I stretch out my legs, looking at the ceiling high above.I bet he must be searching for her. He is a whole bag of trouble and he will make trouble with us if he finds out his “mate” is in my territory. He will definitely cause trouble. Trouble he will regret causing. The mere thought of his failure calms me. Standing in front of the large window that overlooks the garden, I allow myself to
Kaidaira's POV “Finally!" I say, jumping out of the car without waiting for Sebastian to help me out. The drive to this place was quite a long one. Why did Sebastian have to build our house so far away from all the fun places?! “My love, you know you shouldn't be running off that way. You haven't fully recovered." He says, walking fast to catch up. If we were alone out here he would have been running like a teenage boy to catch me but seeing the number of people out here, he is being the Alpha that he is. Finally coming to a stop, to save him the stress for another day, I know I saw a slight irritation on his face but in seconds it looked like it was never there. The admiration on his face is so adorable.“You can't keep carrying me always, I'm not a baby." I say, raising my hands to my waist with my lips forming a pout.“You are my baby so I'll carry you when I want to." He replies, taking my hand and leading me into the restaurant. The traitorous smile that had formed on my lips
Sebastian's POV I remember saying “no way", she still blackmailed me into eating her chicken nuggets and sundae with her. It's romantic when couples eat together, but she made me eat so much that my stomach hurts and I'm currently following her with a heavy basket while she selects “some” things to stock up in the kitchen. “Babe, can you hurry up, I need to get some Nutellas in the next section." She says, walking way too fast ahead of me. How does she do that? She eats so much and she is still active and full of strength. I was fat when I was a teenager and throughout these years, I've worked on myself and after finally getting these perfect abs, muscle and totally perfect body, my lovely mate decides to overfeed me. Oh my!“Thank goodness." I say, exhaling a breath of relief as our "never ending” shopping comes to an end. After paying for the things we bought, I pack them into the booth before opening the door for Kaidaira. Getting into the driver's seat, I adjust my seatbelt an
“This is beautiful, buy this too" Catherine grins, holding up a red laced lingerie. I glare at her earning giggles from her and Amira.It's been two weeks since Sebastian's nightmare and the past few days have passed in a blur. Sebastian has been very busy lately with pack duties, giving me just little time to spend with him. Amira kept to her promise to check on me regularly and we have gotten closer over time. Roman introduced his mate to us days ago and we have been catching up really quick. She had volunteered to follow us to the mall when Amira suggested I go and buy some clothes since I have been rotating the few ones I had and Catherine has been really helpful, lending me some of her clothes too.I haven't been here for a long time but I am recognized as Sebastian's mate by most people. My legal union with Sebastian and initiation as the pack's Luna was a topic yet to be discussed because of his busy schedule.As Catherine holds up the red laced lingerie once again to get my a
The cool morning breeze finds its way into our bedroom making the curtains dance to the rhythm of the wind. The sun rays from outside creep into the room, illuminating everywhere with each step it takes. I throw my hand over to Sebastian's side of the bed but I realize that he isn't in bed. Don't tell me he has gone to work?! Sitting up on the bed, I glance at the clock on the bedside table. It's 1pm. My cheeks flushes at the thought of what had happened last night and this morning. Sebastian didn't let me sleep last night as we made love throughout the night. We finally slept around 4am in the morning but it was barely 7am when I felt his hands playing inside my thighs. After a few more rounds, I finally drifted into a long, calm sleep. And now he's nowhere to be found. As if hearing my thoughts, Sebastian walks in with a tray of food in his hands, causing my heart to skip a beat. His charming smile melts my heart every single time. He sets the tray down on the bedside table, lea
Kaidaira's POV Stepping into his memories, I realize that he has been a happy child while growing up unlike my life. His world is full of happy memories that I wish I could have been part of. But there's just this sad memory. Stepping into this memory, I stop dead in my tracks. Seeing a woman in her forties, lifeless in the pool of her blood. I notice Sebastian kneeling beside the dead woman, crying. The sadness that he emitted was almost suffocating.Stepping into the next memory which is a burial scene, I realize that the woman in the previous memory was Sebastian's mother. The picture that stood near her coffin proves it. I step into a few other memories which also makes my heart break for him. He had lost his parents just between the interval of three months. But this made him stronger and ruled like a true Lycan king. I am so proud of him.Opening my eyes, I wrap my arms around Sebastian as if I could soothe his pains away. “I'm proud of you, my love.” I whisper into his ears.
Settling into our bedroom, a lump forms in my throat. We have been sleeping in this room but tonight it looks different. As Sebastian turns me to face him, my heart races with excitement and anxiety. His piercing green eyes lock onto mine as he smiles warmly, melting my anxiety away. "Baby, you seem nervous. Let's start with the sharing. That way you'll be at ease before the mating process. Is that fine?," he says, his deep baritone voice full of concern. My cheeks flushes at the sound of his voice, as I reply with a nod. The fact that I can't form a proper sentence when he's around always keeps me in awe. He really has a strong hold on me. “How is it done?" I say after taking a deep breath. I didn't do this with Valtor. He was probably not interested in knowing about me. He just wanted my body.Sebastian leans forward and takes my hands in his own, his eyes never leaving mine. “Close your eyes,” he says as I close my eyes. "let your imagination take over, do you see a door?” I nod
This wedding planning was a big contradiction to my wedding with Valtor. From the setting, the timing, the attendance to the wedding dress, this is my dream wedding. It's everything I wished for, a simple but elegant wedding. Straightening my dress for the upteenth time this evening, I take one last look at myself in the mirror. My hair had been curled into perfection, thanks to Catherine and Elena. And my mild makeup highlights my beauty, credits goes to Amira. I look splendid. I almost didn't recognize myself. “Look at how she admires herself, imagine how Sebastian's eyes will darken with desire when they come in contact with her beautiful form." Elena teases me for the first time causing four of us to burst into laughter. The laughing continues with Catherine making jokes about almost everything and everyone in the field.“Okay guys, let's not get her tense. Let's go downstairs now, the guests are waiting” Amira says, leading us out to the open field outside the house. The weddi
Few minutes after Catherine came in, Roman left to go run some pack errands. Right now it's just Catherine and I here in my room and I have to give her full details on what happened earlier today.“Just ignore her, Nicole has always been arrogant" Catherine says nonchalantly. She's probably tired and needs to get enough rest. “So what have you been up to?" “Nothing. I mean nothing fun is going on and Sebastian is barely around" I say with a shrug and a faint smile. Looking at me with a wide grin, I become suspicious of what is in her mind. Catherine is always mischievous when it comes to me. She doesn't talk but the look on her face shows that she is eager to say something that she is not supposed to. “What Catherine? You're just grinning and staring at me strangely without saying a word. Spill already" I say, waiting in anticipation for her to speak up. "Guess who's wedding is coming up?" She says with a singsong tone.“Who?" I am holding on to the last string of my patience. If
“And she went ‘oh Sebastian wants someone like me, fierce, beautiful blah blah blah’ with such audacity," I say, picking an apple from the fruit bowl on the kitchen counter. Since the confrontation with that stupid blondie, I and Roman have been in the kitchen talking, gossiping, I should say. Roman is a great guy! I mean, he has all the tea, and I love gossip.“She has always been such an overconfident psycho. Since childhood, she always thought that Sebastian would end up with her so she was playing ‘bestie’ with him." Roman snorts, scooping another spoon of oatmeal into his mouth. “She wishes!" I scoff at the thought of Sebastian ending up with her. She's so pathetic. “Is she that dumb?! Haven't she heard of the mate bond?" “Every werewolf knows about the mate bond, it is one of the first things you learn when you experience your first transformation. You know the bone-cracking and fur…I was so frightened when I expressed mine for the first time. One of the days I can never forg
Rising up to my feet, I brush the grasses and dust on my outfit. Bending to pick my diary, I ignore her. What? She decided to be bitchy, but I'll just try my best to be nice. The blondie continues to stare at my every movement, frustration, curiosity and irritation flashing in her eyes. If looks could kill, I'll probably be dead by now because of the daggers she's shooting at me with her eyes. “I'm Sebastian's mate.” I say, with a feigned smile while stretching my hand for a handshake. "Sebastian's mate?!” She scoffs, ignoring my hand. Okay, I did expect that. Who is she anyway?“Sebastian's mate?! ‘You’ are nothing close to Sebastian's type and you're ‘definitely’ not fit to be the Luna of this pack. So give another lie, the first one you said didn't fit in well.” She says, raising a brow at me with her hands folded across her chest. Who the hell is she?Opening my mouth to make a statement, she beats me to that. “I mean, look at you, your hair is as messy as a bird's nest. You are
Stretching my hands, I reach over to Sebastian's side of the bed but he is not within my reach. The sun rays dance its way into the room, brightening everywhere it steps on. The urge to go back to sleep is so overwhelming and the soft mattress isn't helping matters.Lazily opening my eyes, I scan the room but I don't see any sign of Sebastian. Turning over to glance at the small alarm clock on my bedside table, 1pm! I fall back on the mattress with a sign. Sebastian has been really busy lately and he leaves for work very early before I wake up and I'm absolutely not a morning person. I was grateful he wasn't waking me up before leaving for work but right now I'm not loving this. I don't get to see my mate first thing in the morning.I relax into the bed to go back to dreamland but this relaxation is short-lived because of the loud rumbling of my empty stomach. Sluggishly pulling myself from the bed, I drag my legs into the bathroom. After brushing my teeth and washing my face, I ret
