CLAIRE's POVA gasp escaped my lips at the unexpected feel of Dominik’s lips on mine. The way he held me at the back of my neck possessively was enough to sent electrifying sparks trailing down my spine.He pulled me closer to him as he took bold possession of my lips, kissing me passionately with a strong hunger and yearning. My body ached for him, and I could tell that he wanted me too.His greedy lips were all of over mine, not giving me the time or space to breath, but I was not complaining. I was enjoying every single bit of it. My legs trembled as they heated up with desire, a hunger.I wanted Dominik to take me now and devour me whole. I absorbed the feel of his hard muscles against mine as I leaned closer into him. A low growl escaped his lips and he wrapped a hand around my waist.My vision spun as Dominik reversed our positions, laying me flat on the bed. And then our eyes met. His green orbs had darkened with lust and his gaze hardened as he stared at me. I went limp at hi
DOMINIK's POVI groaned and brushed my hands over the other side of the bed, expecting to feel another life form beside me. But to my disappointment, I was met with the cold surface of the empty bed.My eyes shot open and I confirmed that the bed indeed was empty. Where on earth had Claire disappeared to? I looked towards the dangling wall clock for the time and quickly noted that it was barely sunrise.I pulled myself up into a sitting position, the covers still laying on my body. My eyes moved to the position Claire had occupied the night before and memories came pouring into my mind like a flood.My plan was no to touch her. I was only meant to talk to her, and ask her more questions about the wolf clan and how she escaped, but my primal nature had gotten the best of me.I wanted her, so badly. It was like a deep rooted hunger and she was the only cure for it. I could not help but put my hands all over her and devour her whole.My mind wandered to her skin. Her white, fair skin tha
CLAIRE's POV My eyes were fixed on Emmaline and Danica, who were passing out instructions to me, but my mind was far away from them. I could feel it. A heavy gaze on my back.As I glanced back, I caught a glimpse of Dominik and my heart almost jumped out of my chest. What on earth was he doing here at the training grounds? I suddenly began to feel a discomfort at his presence and I could not shake off the feeling of his eyes on me.I tried to focus on my training, but Dominik’s presence had done a number on me. I could not cast the fire spell I had cast a few minutes ago, no matter how much I tried.“Claire? What is the matter? You were casting the fire spell just fine a few moments ago.” Danica said as she approached me.“I just got a little distracted, I am fine.” I said and shot her a reassuring look.“I am guessing you are disoriented because of alpha Dominik standing over there.” Emmaline said as she nudged her head towards Dominik’s direction.My cheeks flushed a bright red and
CLAIRE's POVThe tension between Dominik and Aldean grew by each passing minute and the atmosphere in the training ground had gone sour and still.There was tension in the air, but all my mind could focus on was the feel of Dominik’s hand wrapped tightly around my waist and the way my back pressed against his muscular body.His musky scent filled my nose and a shiver ran down my spine. I could not believe that my mind was beginning to fill with dirty thoughts in this situation.“This is not your wolf clan and I do not care if she is your mate. This is our training time and you do not have any right to obstruct it,” Aldean snapped at Dominik.I was in complete awe as I watched Aldean stand up to Dominik, the most feared alpha. Not many people had the guts to stand up to Dominik.A thought crossed my mind and I instantly went solemn. What if Domink got angry and attacked Aldean? That outcome would not end well.I glanced at Dominik and my heart sank at the scowl on his face. This was no
CLAIRE's POVI sat under the large tree in the garden. My legs were raised all the way up to chest with my head burried into my knees as I sniffled and swallowed down hiccups.A strong wind blew, taking fallen leaves with it and blowing them around the small garden I sat in. The atmosphere was tranquil and only the sound of crickets echoed through the environment.I raised my head and glanced around. It was already night time and the moon was out, illuminating the earth below. As I stared at the moon, I blinked and felt a sharp pain burn my eye lids and under bags. I could not recall the last time I had cried this much in my entire life. It appalled me, to think that I had spent hours bawling my eyes out and sobbing like a child. But I could not help the hurt that spread across my chest, engulfing me completely. The words Dominik had said to me were engraved in my mind and I could not stop thinking about them.“This is my life...” I muttered to myself as I stared at the starry sky t
CLAIRE's POV“We need more dandelions!” a witch yelled.I sighed and plucked a dandelion from its stem, placing it into the basket I cradled in my other hand. The empress had instructed each and everyone of us to perform this task of picking flowers.The purpose of this task, was to gather enough ingredients for a potion, a potion that would revive the coven’s barrier, since Dominik had smashed it to bits.I crouched down on the grass and surveyed the area for more dandelions to pick. I let out a long sigh as I slowly slipped deep into my thoughts. My mind replayed what Luis had told me about Dominik.I was still in disbelief that Dominik had murdered a whole clan just for me. And yet here he was, giving me cold stares and telling me directly to my face that he had no iota of feelings for me.Luis and I had talked some more and it felt like the night had lengthened. It felt nice to converse with him. I felt relaxed and at ease at his presence. I swiped a bead of sweat that trickled
DOMINIK's POVI looked down at Claire as she hugged herself tightly. She was wearing my shirt, mine. The thought made me thrilled and I began to grin at her.She looked completely vulnerable only wearing a shirt and nothing underneath. Her cheeks, which were bright red complimented the bashful look in her eyes.The more I saw the Claire, the more I felt a strange feeling sparking inside me. My wolf was enamoured with Claire, our mate, but it was quite different for me. It was impossible to imagine myself having feelings for a weak wolf.When I told Claire how I felt about her, I did not expect her to react the way she did. Once I saw a tear drop from her eyes, I felt something brewing inside me. It was faint, but I could feel a sharp pang in my chest. What was that feeling? I decided to pay no heed to it.However, I did not see Claire after that and neither did she share the same bed with me anymore. I did not bother searching for her. Yet I was still curious about where she spent the
DOMINIK's POV“Wolves?” I asked in disbelief as Luis’ words rang through my head.Luis nodded solemnly and rubbed the injuries on his face, wincing at the pain it caused him.“They suddenly jumped out of the bushes and attacked us. Due to how spontaneous it was, my search party could barely keep up with them and...”Luis trailed off and gazed at me with sadness and a glint of anger in his eyes. He continued.“We lost a wolf.” Luis said with gritted teeth.My eyes went wide and I felt anger welling up inside me and daring to burst out. One thing I could not tolerate was one of my own, getting killed by another wolf clan.“Where the hell are those wolves?” I growled.Luis grimaced and shook his head.“I do not know alpha. We managed to fend them off and they escaped into the bushes. I could not go after them due to my injuries.”I clenched my fists and closed my eyes, exhaling to calm myself down and think about the situation with rationality.“How many were they?”Luis looked up as he
