HAILEYFor the past few days, I had been hellbent on avoiding Carter and no, it wasn't because I was mad at him, though it was part of the reasons but the major reason why I avoided him was of how needy I became whenever he was near. His scent did things to my body that I didn't know were possible. The constant ache between my legs grew worse when Carter was close by.And even now when he was in the company which was far from home, I felt incredibly hot and the need intensified as though I had been drugged with a powerful aphrodisiac.But I knew that wasn't the case because as the full moon drew closer, the feelings increased so much so that it was almost unbearable."You can do this, Hailey. Exert control" I paced around the room, muttering to myself.I considered going over to the company so I could beg Carter to fuck me, as he was the only one that could calm me down but on a second thought, I decided against it because I thought it was demeaning.The incident of how he rejected m
HAILEYFor the first time ever, Carter entered me without any warning or preparation but thankfully, I was soaking wet and ready for him but his sudden intrusion earned a choked gasp from me.Abruptly, Carter paused his movement as though he just became aware of what he did and in response, I let out a needy whine and grounded my hips to get him to move inside me but he remained unmoving. "Tell me what you want. Order me to stop right this moment and I'll do as you ask" Carter said but his voice sounded deep with need and when I looked up at our reflection in the mirror, he stared at me with dark eyes filled with lust.Why the fuck would he think that I want him to stop? I wanted the opposite of that. "Fuck me," I said without giving it a second thought. "Fuck me till I beg."A beat passed and Carter didn't move. Lines of tension decorated his forehead and without thinking, I muttered, "Do you not want me?" And then I clenched around his cock and it finally triggered a reaction. "F
HAILEYWas I dead? I couldn't tell as utter darkness surrounded me, making it impossible to see a thing.But suddenly, a bright light shone from above, centering on me and I immediately examined my environment.Strangely, seven figures with dark cloaks, covering their entire body and face, surrounded me and no matter how hard I tried, I was unable to see their faces."Who are you? Show your faces!" I tried my best to sound brave even though I was a shivering mess inside.Ignoring my question about their identity, one of them spoke in an airy voice, "You are the chosen one. The one who was born to protect the ruler."I furrowed my brows, not fully understanding what was going on."What is this about?" I voiced out my confusion, hoping to get a clarification but instead, they repeated the same thing."You are the chosen one. The one who was born to protect the ruler. Bow to the chosen one, the fairest divine."I huffed. This has to be some kind of joke."I'm sorry but you've got the wro
CARTERWith my head propped up by my arm, I stared at Hailey who was asleep and softly stroked her hair.I knew she felt extremely embarrassed when I caught her pleasuring myself and she thought I was disgusted by her.But that was far from what I felt. Seeing her touching herself got me so turned on, more than I had ever been making it impossible to resist her and finally, I took her in the best way possible, like I'd always wanted, without holding back.And fortunately, she took everything I gave, needing me as much as I needed her.I noticed Hailey's brow furrowed and I instinctively reached out to smoothen it but when it furrowed once again and her mouth moved as she muttered inaudibly, I abruptly sat up.Perhaps was she having a nightmare? The last time she had a nightmare was a long time ago and I thought it had ceased, hence my confusion.I contemplated whether or not to wake her up but before I could come to a decision, Hailey jolted awake with wide eyes."It's a dream," She m
HAILEYAfter Carter had gone for the council meeting, leaving me alone and worried, I couldn't sit still as I felt restless. I needed someone to talk to about my dream, someone that could understand me and that someone was Temmy.Immediately, I called for her and since it happened that Xavier was with Carter, we came to a decision to sit out and talk.I hurriedly freshened up and got dressed, and without bothering to have breakfast, I set out.On arrival at the cafe we agreed to meet at, I glanced around, searching for Temmy who I found sitting at the far end corner, engrossed in a book. And at that same moment, she raised her head, glancing my way and when she saw me approaching, she smiled at me."I hope I didn't take long," I said after settling into the seat."No," She shook her head with a smile, "I just got here not too long ago."Thank goodness I didn't keep her waiting because that would have been very wrong of me, especially with help I needed from her."So what is it that y
TRISTANMaya and I sat in silence as we had dinner, and while she had a visible scowl on her face, I ignored her and centered my mind on the soon coming blood moon and how I was going to eliminate Carter for good and have Hailey for myself.But to my dismay, Maya spoke up, "I can't help but notice how you're actively avoiding me," She commented with a voice dripping of hurt.I rolled my eyes internally as I could barely contain my sigh but I tried my best to put on the usual facade I always used on her, "What do you mean babe? I can never avoid you."Maya was the most annoying creature on Earth but I knew I had to endure as it was only a short time left before I disposed her off.After the blood moon and I successfully eradicated Carter, she'll no longer be of use to me, not like she had much purpose at the moment."You're clearly avoiding me, Tristan. You act as though you can't stand me and the only time you need me is when you need sex," She poured out her heart but I couldn't care
ABIDEMI"There's a lot in store for you after Carter dies, you know that right?" I asked Malachi who stood beside me with a serious expression on his face.As response to my question, he cocked his head, urging me to continue, "He limited you so much and now you're not just going to be Alpha, you'll be ghe Supreme Alpha. That's been your dream, isn't it?""Yes," He nodded."Then a big reason why you should put in your all in this plan." I said whilst closely observing him, careful not to miss any reaction, "So you should tell me everything I need to know about Carter and his family."Malachi looked at me in silence and feeling the need to further convince him, I said, "I really want to make sure that everyone gains from the alliance, especially you, Malachi. You're the smartest person I know and you shouldn't be hindered."My words finally got to him as he spoke, "I have shared all I know about Carter..."He said and I almost groaned in disappointment and frustration. I had spent my t
CARTERThe long awaited day of the blood moon had finally arrived and with each passing second, my worry toppled over. I couldn't help but feel tensed but despite how much Hailey and Xavier had pleaded with me to stay back, I ignored their pleas and accepted the invitation.I knew that was a foolish move on my part because of how weak I felt, but for some reason, I was unable to refuse the invitation.It was as though something strong and powerful was drawing me to it, making me unable to deny.I glanced at my reflection on the mirror for the last time, fixed my tie and turned to look at Hailey who sat quietly on the bed.For the past few days, she had been acting strange. Her neediness had come to an abrupt end but asides that, she was unusually quiet and had come super hyper and alert.I took slow steps towards her and when I was finally in front of her, I held out my hand before her which she took willingly, without a second thought.We stood facing each other and then I pulled he
HAILEYEPILOGUECarter has been the best father to our daughter, Amelia. From the day he found out about my pregnancy, he had been nothing but caring.Every weekend, we always went shopping for baby items, even without knowing the gender of our baby.And when our baby was finally born, Carter's joy knew no bounds. Whenever Amelia cried at night, he'd ask me to rest while he fed her the milk and rocked her to sleep.He even abandoned the company for Xavier in order to be with me and Amelia. He was ever present and I didn't have any complain whatsoever. My only fear was that she'd grow up to be a daddy's girl and forget me.Carter treated our daughter exactly how I wished to be treated by my father. Everyday, when I thought I'd seen the end, Carter would come up with new ways of loving Amelia. I wouldn't be surprised if her first word was his name.After my rebirth, I had never thought I'd find love again. I had given up on it and planned that after carrying out my revenge, I'd start a
CARTER"She's really grumpy and demanding but I love every second of it," I said, knotting my tie."I'm sure you do." Xavier replied, "I'd even mistake you for the carrying the child because of how happy and healthy you look," Xavier's comment made me laugh. He was right as I had heard the comment several times. A lot of people said I was enjoying the process of fatherhood way to much and my reply was always the same,"Becoming a father to Hailey's and my child was the best thing that has ever happened to me in my entire years of existence." Though the pregnancy made Hailey act up and become easily irritated with everything including me, I didn't mind. I loved every single moment of it and because of that, I now had a journal where I document each day of her pregnancy. Her food cravings, her likes and dislikes and so much more.Another thing about Hailey was that the pregnancy made her conscious of her body. She'd stand in front of a mirror and comment on how fat and out of shape sh
CARTERHailey's behaviour left me worried as this was the first time I had seen her this way. After she threw up, I couldn't help but notice how deathly pale she looked and the fact that she didn't touch her food made me scared.I found it difficult to concentrate as my mind thought of several reasons as to why she looked pale. Perhaps was she sick with a deadly, incurable disease? Due to how deep in thought I was, I didn't notice when Xavier walked in, until he placed a document on my table and muttered, "Earth to Carter.""Oh" I looked at him, "When did you come in?""Not long ago," He replied, taking a seat, "What's on your mind?""Hailey," I replied."What about her?" He asked curiously."I think she's sick.""Why do you have that thought?""Because for the first time ever, she threw up and she looks pale," I sighed, "and when I asked her, she said it's that time of the month. I think she's trying to hide something from me," I placed my elbow on the table and rested my head on it
HAILEYMy relationship with Carter had improved considerable after the honeymoon proposal. We barely argued and we did everything together. He was the sweetest and the most perfect man for me. I had gotten used to his sweet side which he only used for me alone.Carter and I stood in the kitchen, which had become a regular witness to our intimate sessions. But that wasn't the point. We were baking a bread together for breakfast and we were waiting for it to be ready."Do you think it'll come out great?" I asked even though I already knew the answer. Carter was a great good and I envied him for that quality."Of course," He smiled, "Whatever I whisk up must come out delicious. Chefs kiss" He folded his fingers, brought it to his lips and kissed loudly.I rolled my eyes at him with a smile on his face, "Narcissist," I muttered."It'd be a waste to be this good and not show it off, you know that right?"I threw an ugly face at him and he laughed. "Don't tell me you're jealous?" He wrapped
CARTERI stood and stared at the vast expanse of greeny before me.Xavier had told me before hand about Temmy asking me to lead her pack.I knew what she was worried about.Temmy was capable of ruling, but the fear of the Innocent people having to suffer if any mischief came up was the issue.I'd been thinking about it for a while and I decided to finally say it to Xavier.A combined honeymoon, Carter and Hailey, Temmy and I.However we'd have to leave that pack and although the peace was all settled, it'd still take a lot of arrangements to make for a trip like that. "Xavier,"I called from behind as he walked towards me."What are you doing here," I asked and shook my hands." Thank you for accepting Temmy's offer," he thanked and he gave a stoic response."I've something to suggest Xavier," I began and he turned to look at me Interestedly." What is it that you've in stock," he asked as I kept mute."A combined honeymoon," I said and he stood shocked before finally getting a grasp
TEMMYI lay down on my bed, reminiscing about the relationship between Xavier and me.I shook my head to get rid of the thoughts to no avail, they consumed me whole.I'd been thinking about it the whole day, our relationship, my relationship with him.It felt even more different after the incident that happened last.When he told me that he loved me, I felt my heart thump rapidly but it thumped harder when I saw him losing consciousness in my arms.A Small part of me wanted to stop but I couldn't, I struggled harder to stop the rampage Inside of me.But despite all this, he didn't stop holding, despite the chances that it could be his last chance of survival.A thought clicked in my mind, I'd marked Xavier and he had as well, but I had no memories of doing so.Love was sweet and I ran my hands through the mate mark on my body, smiling like a Cheshire cat to myself.The small date, little Jabments of PDA when we both hadn't confessed our feelings to each other, the thrill that came wit
HAILEYMy face burned bright red as I realized what I had just done. "Uhm," I coughed awkwardly, "I..I didn't mean it like that" I tried to come up with an excuse but it didn't seem like Carter bought it."There's no need to retract your words, Hailey." He chuckled deeply, a sound that shamelessly made me want to clench my legs together.I was short of words so I decided to keep mute. Since I met Carter, I have never felt as needy as I felt at that moment and the most surprising thing was that I wasn't under any kind of spell that made my senses become heightened."Do you want me to fuck you or not," Carter asked, staring deep into my eyes, "Tell me you don't crave me as much as I do and I'll turn around and walk away, pretending that this conversation didn't take place."I swallowed the bundle of nerves that had formed in my throat. Of course I wanted Carter. I wanted him to do all sorts of wicked things he could come up with to my body. I wanted him to fuck me until I wouldn't be a
HAILEYI hadn't spoken to Carter since the fight. We just acted like we couldn't see ourselves, we just went about ignoring each other.I tossed around on the bed unable to fall asleep due to the pain of my injuries. I sighed for the umpteenth time as I sat up on the bed, thinking of a way to distract myself from everything.Finally, I decided that ice cream was the best option so I came down from bed and walked out of my room, heading downstairs.The living room was dark, only illuminated by the light coming from the kitchen. I contemplated going back to my room as I assumed Carter was in the kitchen but on a second thought, I walked further. The maids had probably forgotten to turn off the light.But I was wrong. A shirtless Carter stood by the kitchen counter, chugging down a bottle of water, his body on full display. I halted in my track, pondering on my next line of actions.I thought about heading back to upstairs to my room but just as I was about to drag my feet, Carter droppe
XAVIERAfter the chaos, we finally made it home. I towered over Temmy, watching her closely as she slept.She looked incredibly peaceful, a huge contrast to her earlier behavior. But I didn't blame her for that. It wasn't her fault. I could only hope that she was back to normal.Speaking of the incident, I reached for my neck, the exact place where Temmy bit me and absentmindedly caressed it. I wasn't sure if she realized that she marked me which was a way to stake her claim on me.I felt giddy that she remembered me even while struggling with demons. She choose me even while she wasn't in her right frame of mind. I could only hope and pray that she doesn't regret it because then, I wouldn't know how to act.I was glad that no substantial harm was inflicted on anyone as it would have made matters worst. Thinking back, Hailey suddenly crossed my mind so I left to check up on her but not before placing a kiss on Temmy's forehead.In Hailey's room, while she sat on the bed, Carter stood
