Davina Pov.Breakups weren't a strange and heart-wrenching feeling anymore; they were my new normal, thanks to Vincent, my on-again, off-again boyfriend from college. I'd lost count of how many times we'd broken up, and it had become a casual feeling to just walk away from the one you love. But today, I wished he had done it over the phone. Bringing me my favorite diner and having my best meal served, only to break up with me, was absolute torture. Especially since I had no one at home to console me or tell me everything would be alright."Don't look so forlorn, Davina. I'm doing this for your happiness," he said, his voice laced with insincerity. "I don't want to hurt your feelings more than I already have. This job is eating so much of my time. You deserve someone who has time for you. I'm obviously not that candidate."I slipped a bored look out of my upright expression. "Really, Vincent? You've made this speech countless times. How long do we have to keep going on and off?" I pa
Klaus POV.I clenched my fists, struggling to contain the rage that threatened to consume me as I stared at the mansion of the one man who destroyed my life, killing in cold blood. The werewolves should have had an upper hand, but in order to maintain peace my father accepted the kind gestures of fruits they gave which was poisoned with wolfsbane.We've been at war for decades, but I think it was time peace reigned. Revenge was not always the option, but to say the least, I have had my fair share of revenge on some of his men who trespassed into my territory.My instincts screamed at me to rip his heart out, to avenge my loved ones' deaths. But I knew that would only bring an abrupt end to whatever peace we were trying to arrive at today. And I am not putting my pack in danger.As the Alpha, I had to maintain control, no matter how much it killed me. I turned to my followers, my voice firm and calm. "Remember, we're here for a treaty. Let's keep our cool and stay alert. We don't know
Davina Pov.I groaned, leaning against the smooth wall of the hallway that led to the hall room where the peace treaty was taking place. Deep breaths Davina. I chide myself inwardly."Miss Davina, the Mayor, ordered us to take the meal right away." One of the maids I led reminded me. I brought my attention back to reality, staring at the lines of maids that held trays of food. All for a peace treaty. It was just 'too much'. But who was I to go against my father's order?"Let's go. Follow me directly. We can't afford to make mistakes." They all nodded and moved.The moment I entered the ballroom I was met with the most alluring green eyes I have seen in my entire life. The pair of eyes studied my movements right from the moment I walked in. My mouth went dry. I lost the ability to speak as the intensity of his stare was just too suffocating, but it felt good.Or maybe he stared at me because I was clumsy and wasn't doing my hostess duty room. His dark gaze became so intense that I co
Klaus POV.Watching my mate serve the meals graciously was a torment that had me squirming uncomfortably on my chair.How ironic fate can be, pairing with someone so alluring and perfect. Her nervousness was quite obvious but it only made her more different than the other humans present, who stared at us with nothing but disdain.I wondered why she served us politely, with a beautiful smile plastered on her perfect face. Didn't her psycho father train her to hate me like us? Men who kill to get what they want?In all honesty, I don't give a damn about her upbringing, I only care about taking what is mine. Deep down, I was certain it would be a little bit difficult. As humans, they don't understand the ferocious need of our wolves in claiming our mate.Staring at her thick hips that were revealed beneath the short skirt that graced her fine figure, I felt my dick twitch on my pants.An overwhelming need to take her to my bed and f**k her so hard that my name would grace those plump lip
Klaus POV.“I'm sorry but I can't let you through.” Another guard said. “We can't let dogs like you run free here.” If they called us dogs one more time, I'll have their heads off their bloody necks and hang them on the spear they held.A scent that has become so familiar waffled through me, calming my anger. She walked into the hall with a dozen women trailing after her.“You are not supposed to be here Davina. Your father doesn't want us near these dogs.” The older woman beside her said to Davina.I watched Davina suck in a breath and turned to her angrily. “How can you all be so heartless? My father's commands already show that he wants peace. As his daughter, I-”Her words got stuck in her throat and I watched her face pale, a gunshot pierced through air and I turned sharply. Nicholas held a gun to the head of the guards that stopped us from getting out.A smirk curled on my lips.The women screeched and sped out of the hall, but she remained still. Her eyes widened in shock.“Al
Davina Pov.I was still in a state of shock, my whole body resisting the command I gave it. Klaus, the supposedly Alpha of the werewolves, was drawn to me? A pathetic human lady?His gaze ignited sparks through my body. My body reacted in accord to his mere eyes roaming and exploring different parts of my body.My eyes grew wide as I stared at the mansion-like building in front of me. How could a mansion housing werewolves be so grand ? I expected houses, dirt and smoke everywhere with falling buildings.I never expected it to be so grand."We are here." His deep velvety voice pulled me out of my thoughts. I finally understood what was going on here. I have been captured by the supposed man who aroused me in ways I couldn't speak. "Are you going to get down or wait for me to carry you down?" Another sharp voice that belonged to a blonde haired with faintly similar characteristics with Klaus told me harshly."Watch your tone, Nicholas." Klaus growled, like a real actual growl that had
Klaus.Control. I fought so hard to keep myself under check as her scent tempted me. She was under my roof and my care and burying myself deep into her till we became one was more of a priority than the meeting I was in now.Nicholas was currently telling my most trusted men all that transpired in the morning. From his point of view, Davina was the key culprit. He found every means to demean and objectify her, and I won't have any of that."That's enough." I said firmly, all attention pouring on me. "We should be focused on how to get Cole out of their grasp. We have his daughter, I believe Nathaniel would be reasonable." "And are you skipping the fact you are giving her preferential treatment?" Nicholas pressed on intentionally. "Davina is supposed to be tortured, evidence of her pain would be sent to her father and I bet we would get Cole out of there.""I won't let you torture my mate." Gasps and murmurs filled the room. It escaped my mind that no one was aware Davina was my mate
Davina Pov.Honestly, I never thought I'd be at ease in Klaus pack. Though I haven't met everyone here, Rose has been exceptionally kind and good to me, along with Carson.Except Lucas. He hated me and he made no effort to hide it. Being in the enemies pack, I wasn't expected to be loved and act like I was Klaus' bride even though he made it seem so.The door to the room I stayed pushed open, revealing a grumpy Lucas.“Get up, the Alpha wants to see you.” He said monotonously.My heart skipped as I sat up on the bed, “Why?”“I am not here to answer your question.” He replied maliciously. “It's either you get up willingly or I force you.” I didn't like the latter. Lucas doesn't look like someone who jokes with things like this. If he says he's gonna force me, hell he'll do it. I got willingly and let him lead the way.He led me to an open room. Nicholas fixed an angry gaze at me the moment I walked in and Klaus looked at me with so much desire that I almost stumbled on my feet.“Get y
