Maybe he wants you to listen to them while they're banging each other 😜
I stroll into the house, the cloying scent of detergent filling the air. She's been cleaning all morning. Whether she does it to earn her keep or because she's bored, I don't know. But since she has so much time on her hands, she might as well clean the Cabin too. I find her bent over, looking through the fridge. The dress she's wearing is dangerously close to revealing her ass. Stopping behind her, I wait for her to sense my presence. The longer it takes, the more irritated I feel. How is she still alive? There's no way she could survive on her own with such instincts. It takes her a full two minutes to notice I'm here the she straightens up, jumping back as she gasps. "Fuck, Kaden, you scared me" Images of me sliding inside her rush to the forefront but I push them back. It's annoying how I can still remember the way she feels wrapped around my dick. "What are you doing?" "Putting things back. I was cleaning. Did you want something?" "Can you clean the cabin too?" "What?"
Past "What's that smile for?" "What smile?" LC narrows her eyes, assessing me. I wonder if she can see it. Does she know that I'm different from yesterday? Does she know I just lost my virginity to the most handsome boy in the world? He didn't rush me or make me feel weird. I didn't have to tell him what to do. Despite being blind, he knew everything. His hands knew where to go and his lips... Goddess. I lower my head so LC doesn't see the blush creeping up my cheeks. When you're a wolf with heightened senses, you hear things. It's easy to tune out everything you're not interested in but there are days I didn't. During those days, I would lie down and listen to the dirty talk between a couple. There were things I found disgusting, some boring, and some I wanted to try and see how they felt. Couple that with the research I did, I thought I had it all figured out. But I was not prepared for Kaden to go down on me. Or for it to feel so good. I begged him for
She's dead? I spent all night tossing and turning, expecting to hear them stumble into the room next door. I didn't want to fall asleep and wake up while they were in the middle of screwing each other. So I stayed up, holding my breath. Waiting. And now he's telling me that there is no mate? She died while he was on his way to save me. Not just that but he can see? The fingers on my neck cut off my airways, making my body kick off into defense mode. My fingers claw on his arm while my legs kick out, one of them landing on his stomach. Fuck, he's freakishly strong. How is he even holding my entire body up with one hand? And it doesn't look like he's straining. Wolves are strong but this? No way this is normal "K... Kad... Kaden..." I struggle to say, my nails digging into his arm and breaking skin. But he doesn't loosen his grip. My vision starts blurring, strength draining from my body and making my limbs useless. Is he going to kill me? I can feel the fight leaving me as Kaden's hand
It's been a day since I left Arctic Warriors and I haven't seen a single hotel or any place I could spend the night. There are no nearby packs. Not a single soul. Just trees and more trees. After walking for hours, I gave in and called Reagan. Hoping she could convince a woober to pick me up but it was useless. Not only was she angry with me for leaving without telling her, she called me back half an hour later to tell me no one wanted to come this far up. They'd heard some rumor about how dangerous it was and refused to travel so far. It didn't matter how much money I was willing to pay them. So yesterday I slept standing against a tree while holding a gun. I'd start drifting off only to startle awake from the sound of wind or birds or basically anything that moved. Which means I didn't get more than two hours of sleep combined. Thanks to the map Nova put in the bag, I know which way to go. It'll just take me a week to get to the nearest pack. Luckily, I haven't bumped into any bear
I don't want her here but I also can't stand the thought of her leaving. After that night, I mostly kept to myself. Obsessing over what I could have done to change what had happened or how I could have prevented it. For starters, I should have told everyone I'd regained my sight so Maryna wouldn't worry about me. Why hadn't I done that? Because some foolish part of me wanted her to be the first to know. I wanted to see her reaction, bask in it, then spend long hours committing her face to my memory. Her face and body and every part of her. Yes, even after I met Maryna, my first thought was to go to Sophia and relearn every dip and curve and freckle and beauty mark but with my sight. This is part of the reason I've hated her for so long. She consumed every part of me to the point where I lost my ability to think straight. And from the looks of it, it's still happening. Otherwise, why would I follow her all day and night only to bring her back? She was so close to leaving my territory.
At this rate, my neck is going to fall off. Why did I think this was a good idea in the first place? Seduce that bastard? I know tragedy changes people. I've seen it happen to LC and I understand. What Kaden went through, losing his entire family in one night was horrible. It was bound to change him. But to this extent? This version of him that is always trying to strangle me whenever he sees me but won't let me go? I don't know what to think of this person. What does he want from me? Is this how it's going to be from now on? I'm rubbing my neck while coughing when I feel eyes on me. The kind that makes shivers run down your spine. But before I can figure out who's watching me, Kaden comes back. He grabs my arm and hauls me to my feet then spins me around. "Wh... What now?" "Did you see anyone here?" "Who?" He looks around and for the first time, I see worry in his eyes. My heart skips a beat. Perhaps all is not lost... "Did you come back because you were worried about me?" At th
She's spent the last three days in the library combing through books. Judging by the section she's been taking them from, I have a rough idea of what she's looking for. There's nothing there though. Wolves have spent decades trying to erase my kind from history so there's little to no information about me. I know that because I've been where she is. Curious to know who... What I am. I went through every piece of paper in the pack but found nothing. Everything I know about myself is from experimenting. Pushing my limits and seeing how much I can take before I break. If Sophia asked... I'd probably skirt around the answer or change the subject to something that would make her feel uncomfortable. She lost any right she might have had to know anything about me when she left. The times when I wasn't angry, I'd wonder what our life would be like. If she'd stayed and if I'd been honest with my father and brother, where would we be now? One stupid mistake changed my life. The more I think ab
Past "Kaden?" "Yes, baby?" "Let's go inside" "Why? I want to hear you say it. What do you want me to do to you?" I slap his arm, glad he can't see how hard I'm blushing. It's going to be our first time but unlike me, he's not shy about it. I like that about him. His confidence kind of boosts mine. I'm not afraid of what is going to happen and I know he won't hurt me. He grabs my wrist chuckling and brings my hand to his mouth "I've never wished I could see someone so bad" "But I like you the way you are" He stands, pulling me with him "You're about to like me a whole lot more" "Please, don't start bragging about your sex prowess when we both know you're a virgin" "I might not have done it before but I know a few things" "Like?" "Dirty talk. Have I not proved myself already?" He has. I can't deny that. Which makes me wonder how he even knows half the things he says. Did someone teach him or was he born this way? "How..." "By listening to other p
"Is this a kingdom of Lycans or werewolves? Ever since that king arrived, he's turned our kingdom upside down. I'm begging you, join me so we can send him away and return things to how they used to be" "You mean go back to the days our houses were falling apart while you lined your pockets with more gold?" Someone from the crowd asks. "Are you not ashamed of yourself, Perrin?" Another one adds "What right do you have to preach such nonsense? If it wasn't for his majesty, we would be begging for morsels of food at your doorstep. Go away. No one wants to listen to you" "Shall I make him leave, your majesty?" Reign asks."It's not necessary. He has nothing better to do so let him run his mouth" "Your Majesty!" Perrin calls out making all eyes turn to me. He drops his microphone and runs to kneel in front of me "Your Majesty, please take me back. Without you, I'm lost. Please, your majesty. I promise to be your loyal servant from today onwards" "That is up to the people. I don't decid
"Hands off. I don't want to be late for dinner" "I can be fast," Kaden says his hands sliding up the back of my thighs to rest on my ass. "Later. Is that what you're wearing?" "I would like to spend time with you without those two interfering. They know we've been mated for a while and still insist on inviting us to dinner every two to three days. I'd rather spend my free time with you than them" "They only want to bond with you but you keep giving them the cold shoulder. They're your parents, Kaden. Why are you being so cold to them?" It's the third time Dessa invited us to dinner. The first two times, we arrived, Kaden pushed around the food on his plate then told them he was busy and left. He keeps saying he doesn't care about them abandoning him but turns around and acts like a child. I'm not forcing him to like them or accept them. But since he decided we'll be living here, can't we be civil with them? Not that Dessa is any better. At least Atticus tries to talk to him. She, o
I wake up to soft breaths fanning my neck and Sophia's body half lying on top of mine. She's in one of my T-shirts while I'm naked. A sense of calmness washes over me knowing this is how I'll wake up for the rest of my life. Our lives. I will protect and love her until my dying breath. Although, now that she got her memory back, will she change her mind? I won't allow her to leave me. We already completed mating. Granted it was different than I'd expected it to be. Aside from being able to connect our thoughts, nothing else happened. Her mark on me disappeared while mine is still visible on her neck. Is this the first time a Lycan has mated with a werewolf? I'd like to know if this is the end or if there will be more changes in the future. But first, I have to get her to stay with me. Sliding her off me, I get up and throw a robe on then go in search of Merlin. He's in the main living room and he jumps to his feet when he sees me. "Your Majesty, you're awake.
My hand flies to my mouth, shock rendering me immobile. Is this the reason Kaden didn't want to talk about that day? I never understood why he was reluctant to tell me what had happened. He'd even forbidden Leander and the rest from talking about it. I thought it was because he didn't trust me but I now I know it was because he felt ashamed and guilty. It's written all over his face. Camden instigated the attack but Kaden had just turned eighteen. I doubt he knew what he was or how powerful his beast was. Newly turned wolves have a hard time controlling their wolf side. I can't imagine how harder it is for Lycans. Camden took advantage of that and it led to the demise of Kaden's family. But why? (He can keep the throne. I'll take everything else away from him) I can't believe he fooled me into believing he was the good brother. I wish I'd stuck all the iolites Iridessa gave me in his back. She slipped them to me earlier and told me their effect on Lycans. Th
The first memory I have is of Celosia forcing me to lift the crown. I was around three or four. She took me to the throne room and told me not to leave until I had succeeded. The naive little boy in me wanted to please her so I promised her I would do it without realizing it was impossible. I thought I could thaw her coldness towards me if I did what she said. She left me there for a whole day and night without food or water. By the time Jovita, my nanny found me, my hands were bleeding because I refused to accept I couldn't do it. It was the first time my mother had paid attention to me. I couldn't disappoint her. The memory is still so vivid because it was also the first time I suspected she didn't love me. I wondered why she didn't send someone to bring me a cup of water. To be able to do it, I needed strength. Feeding me once would have sufficed. A few years later, I found out that she didn't care about me at all. She was telling Morena how useless I was a
I've been expertly avoiding these people for more than two years. I can't believe all it took was one word from Sophia and I agreed to attend this banquet. She'd better hold up her end of the bargain or I will be very pissed. My eyes bounce around the room until they land on her. She's laughing together with other women while her hands make gestures. I believe the woman standing next to her is Iridessa. I'd bet my money that she strong-armed the others into being nice to Sophia. I'm not blind. I saw the way the servants were treating her and when I had Reign investigate it, he found out Ellinor had threatened them. Claiming that when she became the queen, anyone who was nice to Sophia wouldn't be spared. I wonder why she was so bold as to actually think I would agree to make her the queen. Even without Sophia, it wouldn't have been her or anyone for that matter. My mind was made up when I decided to be the king. It's Sophia or no one. I project more erotic image
"She tricked me too. I didn't even know she was your mother" "Find her and tell her to cancel it. I'm not going" "The invitations have already been sent out" Kaden huffs in annoyance and I know it's because he doesn't like these kinds of parties. I crawl onto his lap and wrap my hands around his neck "We can sneak out tomorrow night and go to the other side" "Because they can't find us there and drag us back?" "Then just attend it. I've never been to a black tie event" "How do you know that?" "I'd never forget something like that" "But you can forget me?" "You're being a big baby. Stop sulking and find yourself a tuxedo. I'm going to try on the dresses your mother sent me" I try to leave but his hands go around me. Holding me hostage. "On one condition" "Name it" "Let me fuck your ass when we get back" Goodness, is it me or is he horny all the time? I do want to dress fancily and attend those types of parties. But Kaden's reason isn't bad either. "Your wish is my command,
"What's with the turtle neck? If I didn't know you, I'd think you were trying to cover up my mark" "That's because I am" I snap my head toward him "You are? Why?" "To avoid gossip" "Are you kidding me?""Stop right there. It's not what you think" he says adjusting his sleeves. He's an ass but a hot ass. I wouldn't be surprised if women threw themselves at his feet. But now that we've marked each other, they should know he's taken. Why is trying to hide it? "Unlike wolves, our marks don't remain visible. It'll disappear in a day or two" "Then all the more reason you should display it for all to see. Unless you don't want anyone to know about it" "Correct" Ugh, I knew sooner or later, he was going to start showing his true colors. He asked me to be his queen but it's not even a day later and he's already going back on his words. I'm not stupid. It's obvious no one will accept me as their queen and I'm fine with that. Being with him is enough. But if he
I didn't think it would happen so soon. This feels like a dream. It was all so easy that I can't help waiting for the other shoe to drop. I'm normally confident in everything I do but when it comes to Sophia, there are times I find myself hesitating. Even though I claimed her and we marked each other, it doesn't guarantee that she'll stay once she regains her memory. It was foolish of us to do this now but even if it was just for a day, I wanted her to be mine in every way. With no worries about the past or the future. It's selfish of me to wish she never remembers. I'm tempted to make sure she forgets the past forever but I can't bear to hurt her. Her mind has already been manipulated enough times. If I damage her further, I'd have no one to blame but myself. Besides, she just managed to get her wolf back. I can't let her efforts go to waste. "What are you thinking about?" She asks drawing drawing circles on my chest with her finger. I've lost count of the number of times I've made l
