Katrina’s POVEvery ounce of oxygen left my form as his statement washed over me. I literally froze, every bone in my body unmoving and my heart beating too fast I hoped it wouldn't beat out of my chest.His gaze roamed over my face, observing every little detail and noting it to memory. I felt trapped by not only his arms but his irises too and the meaning in his statement.I gulped, eyes too wide for my face in shock and understanding. My fingers curled at my sides as shiver ran through me. For some seconds I wondered how his words could have such effect on me without him even touching me yet.The man was as ruthless and scary as I’d heard. Only the minutes I had spent in close proximity with him had told me that, so why was I feeling that way with him?“Choose your medicine wisely Katrina,” he murmured in a smirk which I was beginning to think was his signature look.“Hmmm?” He hummed when I didn't utter anything in response, another shudder running through me in the span of a minu
Katrina’s POV"Okay, which should I choose?" I asked no one else but myself as I stood, hands on hips, observing the dresses I had spread out on the mattress.Different designs and colors of dresses lay before me. The kind of dresses I had only seen on Amanda, Gina or other rich females back at Shaun's pack.Now the dresses were in my vision and all mine for whenever I wanted to wear them. It was evening and the sun had almost set completely, casting an orange hue in the sky.The clock read 5:23 pm and I had little over an hour to get ready. A maid had come over during my nap and informed me there would be an official dinner in the evening.I was a bit pained at the interruption thus it was the first time I had gotten to taking a nap. Amanda never let me catch a breather not to talk of having time to rest during the day.Sometimes even at night I wouldn't be able to as a result of pain and overthinking or most times the fear of Shaun coming in to force himself on me.I had never felt
Katrina’s POV"You'll see," she declared and turned to the clothes. "Okay, time to help you make your choice."“Don't keep me hanging like that,” I almost whine.She whirled to send me an inquisitive glimpse at my tone but chuckled as she caught sight of my expression which was a total contrast to the blank one of the last minute. “Sorry but I have to.”“Why?” I asked again.“Because it would be a nice surprise,” she answered in a shrug. “Also I like to keep people hanging.”“Wow,” I blurted, my mouth gaping. “I guess I chose the wrong word then.”“Maybe you did,” she laughed at my utterance. “But what’s to life without a little curiosity?”“Curiosity they said killed a cat, Ariana,” I argued, saying her name for the first time since we met.“For a while there I thought you had forgotten my name or didn't catch it when I introduced myself to you yesterday,” she snorted and bent to pick up the black dress with a slit and pressed the top of the dress to my neck. “I heard you loud and c
Katrina’s POVMy heels clicked away on the reflective and shiny marble glass as I walked beside her toward a corner where I could perceive the scent of food and noted the door to my right was the kitchen.I couldn't quite believe in the past 24 hours I hadn't entered the kitchen. A place which was my usual spot where I did lots and lots of chores and underwent different series of physical and mental abuses.“What’s wrong Miss?” Maddy asked all of a sudden and I jolted as she poked my arm lightly, prompting me to realize I had come to a stop, my vision trained on the kitchen door.“Nothing,” I beamed and moved my head from side to side, partly in denial and partly to shake of the gloomy thoughts and images that flooded my mind on those few seconds. “Let’s go.”She bobbed her head at me and we trudged the rest of the distance to a corner, there was no door but a corner and I caught sight of a long table before I spotted the company around it.“I leave you here Miss,” Mandy declared, bow
Katrina’s POVDinner went smoothly and wasn't as tense as I had thought, the only strange person to me was Steven who was introduced as a bestfriend, nonetheless I found him to be easygoing.I noticed Davos’s eyes on me all through the hour we spent enjoying our meal and sharing conversation. He was in no way subtle about his lustful gaze and it was too noticeable for anyone to ignore.At some point Mathew had to excuse himself, his words being that he needed his food to digest before he puked at the amount of sexual heat he was sensing from his king.I was a werewolf, however there were a lot of things I didn't know or experienced like other beings of my kind. Not having a wolf like most people dealt with me and made me feel inferior and lack basic knowledge.Being surrounded by Lycans at the dinner table and mostly at the new environment was weird and scary all at once. They appeared to be larger and more sharper in senses than normal werewolves.Truth be told I was taken aback when
Katrina’s POVAs expected, Ariana had succeeded in convincing me or maybe using the word ‘dragging’ me would be perfect for how I was made to change from my comfy attire of cotton shorts and a brown vest.Into loose fitting jean pants which I was wearing for the first time in my life beneath a black short-sleeved crop top. It was a wonder how in only some days since I had changed environment and closed, I discovered things about myself I didn't know.Like how my face looked better with my hair in a side style with the strands falling over one shoulder. How my eyes shined when I was excited and how I had a beautiful slender figure with enough flesh in the perfect places.“Can we go now?” She asked in excitement as I was fully clothed into her choice of attire.“Yes,” I agreed and she dragged me by the arm out of my room and down the stairs, my hair flying behind me and she giggling as I grumbled, my voice breaking as I bounced on the steps.We crossed the large hall on the downflooor w
Katrina’s POVAs Steven walked inside and we strolled in behind him, I grabbed Ariana by the arm and slowed down our steps, Ariana sent me an inquisitive glimpse. “Is he your mate?” I interrogated, letting my curiosity take over.“Because we are all lovey-dovey with each other?” Ariana asked in a chuckle.“Yes,” I confirmed the question, but I see no mate mark on your skin which is why I asked.“No we are not mates,” she cleared my doubts with a straight answer.“Then what? How?” I implored, becoming more confused the next moment.“Just testing the waters.” She shrugged and I was astounded by her response. “What if he finds a mate? Or you do?” I quizzed, striving to wrap my head around the situation I was presented with. “What will happen?”“Don't fret darling,” she squeezed my fingers which were wrapped around her bicep. “It's cute to see you worried about me. Nonetheless we have discussed the possibility of that happening.”“And?” I asked, eyes narrowed in her direction.“We decid
Katrina’s POVIt had been a week since our visit to the mall and getting groceries. We ended up too tired from the mall while I was uncomfortable about being around Steven and somehow we ended up leaving without getting something extra.Well aside from Ariana of course who couldn't resist buying a new design of Louis vuitton heels which she spotted on display. I knew she would fall for it especially when she was told it was also a limited edition.The price was enough to give me a headache but she paid without blinking and I thought she would be fine. However she ended up grumbling once we were in the car about how she was spending that huge amount of money at a mall owned by her brother ‘Davos’I would have laughed out loud at her grumbling but the fact my mind was elsewhere and with Steven stealing glances at me? I didn't find her situation funny.When we arrived home sometime in the early evening and ran into Davos at the entrance whom didn't waste time to ask Steven for his key. H
Katrina’s POVThe weird feeling in my veins and gut continued for the next few days and turned into a week and more. Valencia and Arianna had assured me it was my wolf trying to get used to my body before it introduced itself.It was like a host and a parasite kind of thing, though thinking of it that way made it sound disgusting and not the beautiful thing it was meant to be and appreciated.As a result of that, I brushed it away, leaving everything to whenever my wolf thought it best to manifest. Thinking about it now, it seemed that the issue of a wolf made me brush aside too the extra signals my body was sending me which could mean something else, nonetheless I wrote it off to the same cause.‘Don’t you think, that flower needs to be watered?’ A strange feminine voice questioned in my ear, and I frowned.Pausing the tip of the pen on the clipboard in my hold, my feet which were comfortable in black slides came to a halt. I had discardded the heels black heels I had on beneath a da
Katrina’s POVThe saying ‘with great power comes great responsibility,’ had turned to my reality in just a few days, minus the whole day which I was drifting in oblivion.You heard right. I had lost consciousness after drinking the blood of the king as well as the elders mixed together. Their blood must have carried a strange energy that the moment I downed it through my throat, my own blood was being ignited.At first I didn't take or see it as a problem as I felt dizzy for a moment. However Davos’s presence and hold was enough to steady me. Neither of us saw the next tremor that was coming which knocked me off my feet and shut me out to the world.The next thing I knew I woke up in Davos’s chamber which had become the King and Queen’s abode, it was sometime in the evening and it was clear I had been off for about a day, only for my suspiciouns to be confirmed when Davos approached.To my surprise I was told I had become a Lycan. It would go down in history at how hard I laughed at t
Katrina’s POVHis lips finally descended on mine in a fiery and captivating kiss that as always, swept me off my feet. He stole my breath away and every inch of my body reacted to his touch and the movement of his mouth on mine.I moaned as his tongue clashed with mine and they danced in a sensual dance of desire as the joy mixed with lust. His fingers roamed every inch of my body and soon food was forgotten.He tossed me on his king-sized bed, getting rid of my clothes and spread my legs wide enough to have his head buried between my thighs. My fingers skid into his hair, enjoying the softness of them as he did a good job at eating me out.I was a sweating, moaning mess by the time he was done, my first orgasm of the night dripping out of my feminity. Yeah you heard right, my first orgasm of the night.He had cleaned me up and dressed me in his shirt, calling me over to eat. Said he had enjoyed his appetizer and was ready to eat the food he had prepared before we continued our escapa
Katrina’s POVWhile attending to Eleanor, I was surprised she had asked about Valencia. It then clicked that Valencia must have been the one to refer her to me and it clicked.They both had the same elegant and classy aura with a straight way of speaking and mode of dressing. It wouldn't by any means shock me if I found out later they were more than acquaintances, maybe friends or even related in some way.I spent a bit of time with Eleanor as she purchased what she had in mind and the more seconds ticked by, it turned out my notion may have been right.After she had left I had another inflow of customers and Maddy and I ended up being busy half of the day. Valencia had suggested before, I should open a social media account, and that she and Arianna would show me the ropes.I already had a social media account where I used to view videos and content concerning all that was going on in the world. However I didn't know the dynamics on how to handle it by creating content and putting my
Katrina’s POVEar placed on the wood, I didn't for a moment think I would be caught because staffs rarely roamed the area and nobody comes through that path except invited or called upon through the mind link.I discreetly heed the faint sound of voices and chairs scraping before there was a quiet for about a minute. I didn't need to crack my brain before I knew it was because they were waiting for Davos to come out of his office.“Alpha King,” a low chorus of greeting reached my hearing and I cursed my lack of being a full werewolf hence that prevented me from heeding things clearly and understanding the conversation.Things went quiet again after their acknowledgement of Davos as the Alpha king. Barely moments later, there were hushed murmurings and in a bid to get a good understanding of what was going on, I shuffled, my feet taking me to the door handle.My face met the cold metal, and I squinted my eyes as if that would help me in any way to sharpen my ears. I was too intent on w
Katrina’s POVValencia had literally dragged me out of that space and of course, she was indeed furious while I for one felt nothing else but embarrassment.She didn't hesitate to scold me for my stupidity of course and I could only remain silent as she did that. It was the truth and to make matters worse, I couldn't catch a bit of the conversation which was going on before I was caught.Mathew didn't help matters as he snickered at the situation playing out and how I was being dragged like a rag doll, not doing anything to help, rather his laughter heightened my embarrassment.As expected, she didn't keep the story to herself and had to get Arianna involved. Well Arianna was the one who got herself involved by being curious as to why Valencia was pulling me behind her the moment she came into the castle.It ended up with Arianna adding her input. I wouldn't lie, she was more considerate than Valencia who only scolded me. It was certain it came from a place of love but Arianna did her
Katrina’s POVIt was a new day and just as Davos had told me the previous night, he had sent word to the elders for the announcement he was going to make and the argument which was sure to follow it.To say I wasn't apprehensive or nervous would be a lie, hence the butterflies in a tummy were messing with me to the point I felt like they were about to fly out of my throat.My heartbeat too wasn't stable and it messed with me from the moment he kissed my cheek and left me in the room, his smile assuring and confident.I had just gotten out of the bathroom and was getting dressed for the day. Training had just finished and I got back to the room to freshen up. I had eaten though before my bath and so I was getting ready for the day.Next on my schedule was to attend my history classes. I had reduced the day for the classes because of my new task with the florist shop. Maddy was going there soon to open up and sit ready to attend to customers before I came.Brushing my hand through my h
Katrina’s POVThe person who came in turned out to be Dean, dispelling the bit of apprehension we had of it being a customer to catch us at our 0dd behavior all in the name of celebration.It was revealed by Arianna that she had invited him to my opening day. He brought with him cookies and ice cream. The smile on my face couldn't be hidden as well as the surprise I was feeling by his action.He joined us in our eating and drinking spree. In no distant time everyone loosened up including Maddy and I. We were sharing stories and I told them more of my past.They sympathized and at some point, some drops of tears stained my cheeks and I briefly forgot we had an external party. When it clicked I felt a bit embarrassed but Dean acted non-chalant and brushed it off which is what I was grateful for.Morning came to afternoon and we were done with half the bottles of the whiskey and white wine. I had instructed Dean to put the ice cream in the fridge for later. It was a fun time and no cust
