ALPHA RAIDEN~~Was I doing too much?Should I even be pursuing sex during this perilous time? But it wasn’t about just sex. It was about feeling closer to Aurelia. I want to see her carry my mark and have her mark on my neck, wearing it proudly. I want everyone to know that she is mine and that I belong to her. I wanted all of that and more. Plus from the way she melted in my arms earlier together after the sexual tension that Benji and Otis created, I knew she wanted all of that as well. That’s why I sent the twins to my mother’s apartment—she moved into a new place since my mansion was currently occupied by Moon Stone Pack Members. The kids were with my mom, Susanna had gone to Andrew’s, and Nina had helped me prepare a fancy dinner for two. I have spent the past two hours decorating the living room as well. This wasn’t a waste of time. It was an investment. Even if I died, Aurelia would have these moments to remember–“As much as this is beautiful and thrilling, I’m again
AURELIA~~Dinner? How could I care about that when he was kissing me like this? How could eating be on my mind even though I have worked and trained hard today? Not when Raiden was touching every part of my body at the same time. At that moment, he had more than two hands.The fire of desire had been dancing within me even before we started the slow dance around the living room as we kissed with raw undiluted passion. I lost track of time as Raiden and I moved around the living room, devouring each other’s mouths, tasting places we never knew existed until now.“Hmm…” I moaned for the millionth time as his hand touched the sensitive part of my neck, caressing it heatedly. “I love you…” Raiden muttered effortlessly, molding our lips together before my brain could even understand his words. “I.” Kiss. “Love” Even deeper kiss that had my back arching. “You, Aurelia” He concluded, pouring desire into me like he was a fountain of it.He didn’t give me the chance to think or respond.
ALPHA RAIDEN~~She took me by surprise. One minute I was savoring the raw sweet taste between her legs and the next, her legs were wrapped around my neck and I was flipping in the air. How strong were those legs exactly? I thought to myself but my eyes were as wide as the ocean and they almost popped when Aurelia found a way to sit right over my weeping and aching cock. “Fuck…” I groaned. Although the thick fabric of my pants was still between Aurelia's slick entrance and my ready-to-go penis, I could still feel the ache of desire growing from the tip of my cock to the base of my swollen balls. “You don't get to starve me like that.” Aurelia whimpered but never had I seen her eyes so dark… so passionate. I didn't mean to starve her. In fact, after her third orgasm, I wouldn't say I was starving her. I was starving myself for her pleasure. I was restraining myself so she could feel that I genuinely wanted her unlike in the past….I didn't want her to compare the past and now
AURELIA~~Once upon a time, I would have been reliving the past as Raiden sank into me. I would have been reminded of every pain he caused me but tonight, I let it all go. I chose to live in bliss rather than pain. I chose to heal and my soul, body, and mind agreed with me. Even my memories did as they purged out the bad ones, replacing them with the new happier ones that Raiden and I were currently creating. I mean, I laughed.I giggled as he carried me towards the bedroom with my legs wrapped around his waist and his cock firmly rooted within my hole. Did he crack a joke? I wouldn’t know. However, he had me giggling all the way, whispering beautiful nonsense into my ear. Although I had forgotten the past, one fact I couldn’t forget was Raiden’s stamina in bed.His appetite had never been questioned and I knew he was holding himself back. I could feel it. Although Inara had been silent in my head since the intimacy started, I heard her thought as it flashed through my mind at
ALPHA RAIDEN~~A smile stretched my face as I put the blanket over Aurelia’s naked body. I wiped her body with a wet towel and I intend to do the same with the couch we used in the living room, the bedroom door, and the floor before sleeping. I didn’t expect the night to turn out this good, not after Lex reminded me of the risk of marking Aurelia. However, If I were to die soon, tonight would be the best night of my life. I felt complete with the bond tingling within me. “We’re back,” Lex muttered into my foggy mind. Yes, Aurelia and I were back like never before. She was mine again and I would do everything to treat her like the queen she was. However, I still couldn’t make her mine, not fully. Doing that would make me a selfish mate. “If only we can complete the bond by marking her,” Lex complained within my mind despite the sexual satisfaction that was zapping through my veins. If only I wouldn’t die. I thought to myself, sighing as I left Aurelia’s side, ignoring the n
AURELIA~~I woke up to an empty bed… Or in other words, I woke up alone but sore which tells the tale of last night.If it wasn’t for the voices I heard in my sleep, I bet I would still be snoring and not realize that Raiden had left the room… “He must have woken up early. Perhaps he’s preparing breakfast.” I thought to myself as I got out of bed after noticing how cold Raiden’s side of the bed was. I walked to the closet, picked out a pair of shorts and a wine blouse, and rushed my naked ass to the bathroom as I could hear Katie and Kyle’s voices. Their giggles woke me up. I quickly washed my body, hating the fact that I wouldn’t smell like Raiden anymore afterward but I also didn’t want my kids to smell sex on me. I put on my clothes before moving to the living room where I found Maya, my kids, and Iris… that’s everyone but Raiden and my face kinda fell even though Katie and Kyle hugged me affectionately.“Where is he?” I asked, looking at Iris and Maya, expecting one of them
ALPHA RAIDEN~~I called everyone out, including the older kids. Seeing everyone like this makes me realize that I have many people to protect—a whole lot and the numbers just increased earlier today. As people settled in the Pack’s Square, I could see the white wolves, the Moon Stone members, and my pack members mixing. There was no segregation in any way and that was a good thing.When I sensed that everyone was here, I walked to the front of the crowd with Seth who had been up all night and day with me. Andrew joined us as I briefed him about what happened at the borders earlier this morning before I sent the general message out to everyone who I could reach through the mind link. Andrew had to inform the Moon Stone pack members and Susanna went to call on the White wolves. “It’s official.” I started with that staring at the confused and anxious faces of the crowd. “We are at war and I need everyone in this pack to know that.” The crowd began to murmur, the scent of their fe
AURELIA~~“I’m destined to die in war, Aurelia,” Raiden said clearly, his soul breaking as those words made the air around us thickened. He was already dying even before his supposed destined death. Since we were telling the truth, I breathed, “What makes you think I don’t know?” Raiden didn’t understand me at first. He shook his head, looking at everything but me as we stood still on a deserted path, “You don’t understand, Aurelia. I’m going to die. I saw it in my predicted future when Susanna read my memories–”“And I’m saying that I saw it in a vision that is more reliable than a Memory Reader’s predicted future. I saw it happen, Raiden.” I interrupted, explaining to him so he could understand me. Raiden’s eyes went from confused to shocked and then to hurt but eventually settled for pity. All of these emotions crossed his eyes within a minute as silence hung between us. “You knew?” Raiden asked with disbelief. I nodded, “Yes, I knew. I found out in the first vision that I
Princess Katie Anne~~I could feel my heart racing even though I tried to hide it and control the rush of emotions that attacked my nervous system the second we drove into Black Fur pack.Somewhere at the back of my mind, I could see my younger self giggling as we drove out of Black Fur. I could see the big smile on my face because I was excited to leave the pack for the first time in my life.I recalled holding my mom and Kyle while my little mind rapidly took in the possibility of adventure that awaited us, even though I didn’t know half of the thoughts that were racing through my mom’s mind that day.I bet she was terrified that day, but she kept a strong face for Kyle and me. Now, it was my turn to be strong for Davien and my family.As Garrick drove the car towards the Alpha’s mansion, following Davien’s direction, I tried to look around, searching for some sort of familiarity, even though I knew recognizing anything or anyone from my childhood here would stir up my emotions.
DAVIEN~~After a day of packing and a farewell dinner with the entire family, Katie and I were ready to leave Dark Moon Pack and journey to my birth pack, which was also her birth pack because she and Kyle were born in Black Fur.I was still scared of what could happen on this trip, but I had been working on it after realizing that my dad would feast on my fear. Also, I was beginning to like the idea of having Katie by my side in Black Fur.“I don’t want you to leave.” Elora’s whimpers pierced through my thoughts. She was clinging to Katie, but her eyes were on me, and I could see tears glinting within her bright orbs. “We are a family. We should stick together.”“Don’t be silly, Elora,” Ronald breathed softly and walked up to where Elora and Katie were standing. “We’ve talked about this, right? Katie and Davien have to leave, but they will be back before we know it.”“They don’t even know when they will return,” Elora countered, tears trickling down her small face as her eyes shift
Princess Katie Anne~~My feelings remained unchanged. I didn't want to leave my family, but neither did I want to be apart from my mate.However, I would have to sacrifice a few days with my family if that meant I could show Alpha Jarrett that I wasn't one to be messed with. I was no weak princess whom he could terrify.I was Katie Anne Flockhart, daughter of the powerful Aurelia Seer King Flockhart.Of course, I intended to show Alpha Jarrett that, but not before I made Davien mark me, even if I had to tie him down to get it done. I knew he could tell I was on a mission even before we entered the pool house that had become our home for the past three months."I expect a response from my dad by morning, but I better start packing before going to bed." Davien uttered as soon as I closed the main door behind me, telling me he would pack for me as well. "You can go to bed. I will join you as soon as I am done packing."Smooth.I mean, Davien's effort to avoid going to bed with me beca
DAVIEN~~Taking Katie with me to my family’s territory was like leading a sheep into a lion's den. Katie was a strong woman, but I wouldn’t want to test just how strong she was by endangering her life—the same life that my dad had threatened so many times in the past few months just to have his way.“Aside from that, Katie wouldn’t want to leave her family. She is tied to them,” Dolf said into my mind, agreeing with me.But the other people in the living room didn’t think the same way, and I couldn’t blame them. After all, none of them knew about my dad’s threats.“Can we stop cursing and express objections in a more polite manner?” Queen Aurelia chimed in, looking at Katie and me in particular.I nodded, but before I could speak, King Raiden uttered, raising his brows, “Why are you against Katie going with you? It’s the best solution.”All eyes turned to me, and I could feel my palms dripping with sweat. Do I tell them that my dad claims he can wipe out white wolves—the only clan
Princess Katie Anne ~~Hell no!Hell no! Hell fucking no!“You don’t have to. This is all a scheme to fish out the rebellious Alphas, but you don’t have to go back there,” I exclaimed, holding Davien’s gaze for a minute before my eyes shifted around the living room. I asked no one in particular, “Right? He doesn’t have to do this, right?”But no one responded.Everyone kept quiet as if they didn’t know what the text from Davien’s dad was all about.I mean, Alpha Jarrett had commanded my mate to return to the Black Fur pack for some unknown reason that I knew wouldn’t be good. I couldn’t let Davien go, not when we were just connecting on a deeper level.Not when my heart beat for him.And definitely not when I knew that being apart would drive my needy wolves crazy. In turn, my wolves would drive me crazier, and not to forget the hormones that have skyrocketed ever since the first time Davien made love to me.“It’s not a death sentence, Katie. Don’t you think you are reacting a litt
Alpha Prince Kyle’s POV ~~“Are you serious?” Camila asked after a few minutes of silence that must have made her realize that I wasn’t trying to be funny.I nodded, “Yes, I am, Mila. That letter has to be opened in five years when you turn eighteen years old.”The plan was simple—write letters to her on every birthday, and in each letter, I would tell her what I did the entire year. This particular letter contained how I found out she was my mate and everything I had to do so we could both have a normal life.I chose to do this because it was the only way I believed Camila would understand what had happened and why I had to do what I did. I didn’t want to risk losing our bond forever when she turned eighteen and hated me.“Exactly, Kyle. It’s five years away. Why give me a letter I can’t read for the next five years as a gift?”Of course, my brothers understood why, but they didn’t say a word, giving me the chance to say, “Because I am trying to teach you patience, Camila. Now do
Alpha Prince Kyle’s POV~~While my family and Camila’s parents planned a surprise birthday party and forced me to be a part of it, I wanted to tell them that she would rather spend her birthday in a haven where books are unlimited and with a few friends.But they wouldn’t listen to me. That was why I let them plan the party, but that didn’t stop me from planning a different party for Camila.And of course, the venue we needed was my private library. Only a few people were invited. By "few," I meant Ronald, who was there because he wouldn’t miss his best friend's real birthday party; Kennedy, who still enjoyed reading; and Soraya, because she was the only female friend of Camila who wouldn’t spend the entire night trying to get my attention or that of my brothers, who weren’t even teenagers yet.We celebrated Camila by reading her favorite book, and soon it was time to gift her.Ronald took the lead, presenting a fancy box and saying, “You have been talking about these sneakers, so
Princess Katie Anne~~Three months went by in the twinkling of an eye.I had been training and had gotten better at using my spiritual energy. Although my physical strength was still so much better, my spiritual strength had grown strong enough for me to train confidently with Elora.Yeah, Elora, my little sister.She had rubbed it in my face a few times, but she was also a darling, helping me to train alongside the greatest trainers that I had been assigned to.Another thing I had achieved within the past three months was peace and happiness. I found all of that even though I now had to live away from my childhood home. I wouldn’t trade our little home for anything.I had come to love having a space that Davien and I could share despite my initial emotional outburst, and clearly, I wasn’t far enough away from my annoying siblings.“Right now, I want to be far away from everyone and break a few things,” Zoe seethed within me just as Davien’s scent hit my nostrils.My mate walked in
DAVIEN~~“I am sorry I undermined you before my family. Although that wasn't my intention, I did it regardless, and I am so sorry, Davien,” Katie said, her voice filled with sincerity even though we were lashing out at each other a few seconds ago.My chest rose and fell as if my heart were on the verge of stopping. I hated confrontations, and it was all because I had never gotten to speak my mind or express myself during any confrontation until now.I expressed myself, and Katie listened. She understood me. She set her emotions aside and chose to apologize to me.That made me feel like the luckiest man alive.I knew this would happen, and I might have been rehearsing the words I would say to Katie all day, even though I still couldn’t get my dad’s threat to kill her and the other white wolves out of my mind.Never had I been involved in politics. Until now, and I spent the whole day with Raiden and Aurelia. Yes, they finally made me call them by their names. After getting correcte
