CARTER

Nothing else bothered me than Hailey's behavior. The slightest thing pissed her off and no matter how careful I was, I couldn't avoid her outburst.

But asides her temper, another thing that bothered me was her scent. Her temper seemed to turn her on, making the scent of her arousal waft into my nose.

I knew that it wasn't a priority and I shouldn't be thinking about it but how could I concentrate when the scent increased when she looked my way?

How would I be able to focus on dinner when she looked like she'd rather have me instead of the food on the table?

I could only hope and pray that Xavier and every other man in the restaurant couldn't perceive the scent, else I'd lose my mind.

I watched Temmy reveal how worried she was about the upcoming blood moon and if I was to be honest with myself, I was worried too because I didn't have a guardian.

Subsequently, Temmy abruptly stood up, "I can't sit still and watch everything go wrong. I have to face my father," She declared and be

    XAVIERI perfectly understood how Temmy felt, especially knowing what her father was capable of but I also wanted her to understand that none of it was her fault. It wasn't her fault that her father was a psychopathic maniac.My heart thumped loudly in my chest when she dashed out, saying that she was giuñg to handle it.Yes, she had magic, she was a powerful witch. But it was obvious that she wasn't as strong as her father who wouldn't hesitate to hurt her.The last thing I wanted was for her to be hurt. I didn't want any danger whatsoever to befall her.And that was why I followed after her immediately she rushed out inorder to stop her from doing something silly in the heat of the moment.Fortunately, she hadn't gone far so I was quick to catch up with her."Where do you think you're going?" I held her arm, questioning her as both of us heaved rapidly, trying to catch our breath."To stop my Father," She bravely replied, "He's a monster and someone has to stop him""And that someon

    HAILEYThe discussion between Carter, Xavier and Temmy about the blood moon went over my head as I didn't pay attention to them.Because while they were busy conversing, I struggled to strengthen my self control and curb my ever growing just for Carter.Perhaps it was the blood moon but I felt incredibly needy. It was so intense that it hurt.Fortunately, Xavier and Temmy abruptly left the table, leaving Carter and I. I took that as an opportunity and headed to the restroom to calm myself down, not expecting him to come after me.While I splashed water on my face, I heard footsteps and without bothering to identify the intruder, I brushed them off.But fortunately or should I say unfortunately, the intruder was none other than Carter.Apparently, he wanted me the same way I wanted him and without delaying, we pounced on each other, kissing and tugging at our clothes.And while we made out, for a weird reason, I wanted Carter to bite me. I wanted to feel him sink his teeth into my neck

    TEMMYI didn't want to indulge in Carter and Hailey's fight, not because I didn't care about them but because I knew that they'd eventually make up, just like Xavier and I did. Instead, I couldn't help but wonder what Xavier had in mind because it was a secret, even to me.With each passing day, I came to love Xavier more and more. Everyday with him seemed like an entirely different experience that I always look forward to the next day.He made me happy, made me feel loved. He made me feel like I mattered, like I was valuable and worthy. The feeling was new to me but I loved it.Xavier took a turn and headed in the opposite direction which I felt was familiar but I couldn't place my fingers on it.Soon, we arrived at the destination and I felt ecstatic. Xavier had taken us to an amusement park and not just any random park, it was the one I always visited with my mom when I was a child."You brought me to the amusement park!" I screamed as I jumped in joy."You like it?" He smiled, al

    TRISTANI took a sip from my glass and then glanced at Malachi who busied himself with smoking a cigarette.We decided to go to a bar in order to clear our heads but after over an hour, Malachi had still not said a word. He just kept diminishing cigarettes after cigarettes.I knew that I had to start up a conversation because if I didn't, Malachi won't because the man loved his privacy and silence.We were both polar opposites and I didn't like him one but because of his obnoxiousness but to achieve our goals, we had to put our differences aside."Ugh," I groaned to grab his attention, "I hate Abidemi so much. He acts like he's the boss of us and I've noticed that he likes to subdue us to take our glory and dull our shine,""How do you mean?" Malachi asked with a nonchalant expression as he threw the left over cigarette on the floor and proceeded to crush it with his shoes, and I could tell he was just indulging me out of boredom.But nevertheless, I explained, "He just dishes out ord

    CARTERAs the days went by, Hailey's temper grew worse and she's hellbent on ignoring me. I knew my actions the last time hurt her so much and I felt sincerely sorry but I didn't regret it.How was I supposed to mark her when I knew she wasn't my mate. It would have been extremely selfish and unfair of me if I did that to her. Marking her was like bounding her to me, meaning that when Alanna comes back home, Hailey wouldn't be able to move on. Aside from not speaking to me, Hailey had gone back to her room, thereby raising a wall between us and making her inaccessible.No matter how much I pleaded with her, she kept on being adamant and as much as I knew she was doing the right thing by creating distance between us, I just couldn't take it. With the blood moon coming in a few days, I couldn't help but feel worried and unable to concentrate as all of my thoughts was centered on the blood moon and how I'd protect my loved ones.Fear was slowly becoming a huge part of me especially as

    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

    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
