"What books did you pick?" Axel asked as we headed back to my room.

"Just some history books," I lied.

"You are into those?"

"There wasn't much to select from," I lied again.

"True," he agreed. I was glad we moved on from that topic quickly. "A maid would be here soon with some healthy food. When had been the last time you ate?"

"A few days ago."

"Days?"

"I am used to it." I paused, deciding if I should tell him. "I was born an omega; I am used to staying days without food."

"Omegas are to be fed too, just like every other."

"Not in the Windborne Pack"

"It would be different here," Axel promised.

.

A few minutes later, there was a soft knock on the door. It was 'the' maid, and she came in with a tray in her hands.

She gave a deep bow, placing the tray on the table before quickly exiting the room.

"Whatever is in there smells really nice."

"It's meat balls and mashed potatoes," he said.

"That seems a bit much, don't you think?"

"You've not eaten in days; you need as much as you can tak

    The day went by in a flash, and soon it was already evening. "You should get dressed now; do you need help with that?" Axel asked. "No. I know my way around those," I said, picking out a green gown from my wardrobe. Surprisingly, all the clothes here were my size, and that was very... creepy. "The red one" "What?" "The red one would be better," Axel said, and I picked out the red gown. It was a beautiful piece, and I wondered how much it cost. I imagine it cost a lot. "You are right."I didn't do much with my hair; I was too nervous to even try, but I left it down, brushing through it a couple of times. "Thane is here," Axel announced, even before I heard the footsteps. Just then, Thane walked in, and my eyes traveled to him. "Why didn't you tell me?" I sneered at him. "Tell you what?" he asked, his gaze trailing right back to Axel, who shrugged innocently. "You told me I was to attend some party; you never told me it was some joining ritual." "You would have found out in th

    Thane rose, and by his signal, I rose too. He took my hands. I knew it was all an act; I should be trying harder; we had the whole pack to convince now, but I couldn't help but think about 'the marking'. The fact that everyone here would watch us. How was this normal? Thane drew me closer to him. "Don't fight me," he whispers, low enough that only I could hear him, and then his lips met mine. The kiss was gentle at first and then demanding; he consumed me, and all I had to do was play along, even if my eyes teared at the knowledge that he would be doing this here, right now. Maybe I could just close my eyes and pretend it was just the both of us. That wouldn't be hard, right? His lips finally left mine, and I was sure my lips were swollen and my cheeks flushed. "My mate would be marked and claimed tonight," he announced, and the whole crowd erupted. I watched the faces of the people waiting to see me naked. "But it would be done in private," he says, and the applause died down. I

    Axel was there almost immediately. "Thane" he called out, but the Alpha was far gone and I was a complete wreck, one thing was sure, I wouldn't have stopped him."Listen to me Thane, you don't want her hurt, remember?"Slowly Thane's eyes returned back to their normal colour, he stared at the mark he gave me, it still stung, but my mind was too clouded."I'm sorry" he says and with that he walks away, leaving the room. It took only a few minutes to gather myself and realise that Axel had seen ‘everything’. I couldn’t look him in the eyes, even as he brought a robe for me helping me into it.“Thank you” I said to him, avoiding eye contact.“You didn’t seem to want him to stop though” Axel said and it was of course very much true, I hadn’t wanted him to stop, damn I would have let him fuck me right in front of Axel. I had no response to that.“Thane’s father seemed rather unpleased at the fact that he was breaking the tradition” I said, trying my best to act like ‘this’ was nothing,

    I had spent the whole night reading through the pages of the very lengthy diary belonging to the lady named Barbara.Thane hadn’t returned to our room that night. The morning came too soon.I was happy to see Axel though."How was your night?, you don't seem well rested""I... I had been occupied."He gave me a questioning look. "Are you still worrying about Thane's whereabouts? I told you not to.""I wasn't," I said, but that was partly a lie; I had been worried over where he was right before I pulled out the book ‘Barbara's fantasies’-- that had kept me very much awake."Let's go somewhere.""Where?""Anywhere, or maybe a run in the woods," he suggested.I still felt very self-conscious when being stared at like I was a piece on display, but he was right; I had to leave this place."Okay, I'll go change," I said..I splashed some cold water on my face. I put on some black leggings and a matching tank top, knowing full well that Thane wouldn't approve of this. I felt too lazy to do

    There was this strange emotion in me. I couldn't let Axel know, so I did my best to think of everything but that Thane had spent the night with Beatrix, leaving me in my room all alone. I hated it. I had admired the girl when I first saw her, but now, I felt the dislike brewing in me."Are you okay?" Axel asked as we headed on our way to the woods."Yes" I lied."You aren't. You are jealous.""You feel like you know everything, but you don't""I don't know everything, but that I know""I should have expected that, it shouldn't surprise me, I hadn't 'satisfied' him, so perhaps he got that elsewhere""Don't blame it on yourself, is not your fault"I nodded, shoving away that memory.~"How far are we going?' I asked when we arrived in the woods."Far enough""Axel""Yes?""You do know I can't transform into my wolf form as often as you can, right?" I questioned. I wondered how I forgot to tell him this earlier- maybe I assumed that he would know. As omegas, we have weaker connections wi

    “I make the rules, not you, and who I fuck is not your business. I'll have you if I want you, and if you want me, all you have to do is tell me. But you weren't available.""So you took a quick option?""Riley, you seem to have forgotten you are not my true mate; the only thing binding us is the contract. What I do doesn’t hurt you physically. We can pretend to be so much in love before others, but outside that, nothing.""Well, you aren't good at pretending, seeing how close you are to this Beatrix.""I can be with whoever I want to be with."“Then how would you feel if I fucked Axel? Would you like that?”“I would not hold you back, Riley; you are free to be with whomever you want, and this contract doesn’t tie you to me, just as long as I approve of said person.”“Do you approve of Axel, then?”“Yes, I do, but the only condition is that I will watch you while you fuck him. That would be a turn-on,” he said, a smirk playing on his lips.Was he being serious?, I had only been trying

    ‘I’ve heard rumors about being intimate with more than one man—I never thought it possible, but I’ve always wanted to try. Would it hurt? Would it be a better addition to my list of fantasies?When the ‘wealthy guy’ called for me, I had met him in his room like every other day, but he was not alone; there was another guy, ‘the younger guy’ with him. We chatted and we laughed, but I didn’t plan to tarry long. So I headed into the bathroom, took off my clothes, and returned naked. Two pairs of eyes were on me, and I wondered what it would be like to be loved by two men. I lay on the couch, knowing they would come to me, and they did, both undressed. I had never felt a desire so strong; I wanted a ...threesome, none of them would be left out. I was going to have them both, and they were going to own me...’.Threesome. Never had I heard of the term; how was it possible?That had been the thought on my mind when I slept off. ~I woke with a start, feeling disoriented; it wasn’t evening ye

    "I won't bind your hands this time, but you have to stay still," he says, and I could only manage to respond with a nod.He kissed my lips; this time it was soft, his palm was very low down my abdomen, and a slight movement caused the heat to build up. I let out a small moan, which was silenced by his kiss.Noticing that, he adjusted, his palm no longer having physical contact with my skin.He kissed down my jaw and then my ears, nibbling gently on my ears, and then he kissed me down my collar bones. His lips against my bare skin caused a strange kind of spark, dampening my core.His palm massaged my breasts, and I let out another moan as he sucked at my very sensitive nipple, his canine grazing into it only slightly. He repeated this action to the other, and I had already begun writhing under him, in need of more friction between our lower parts; he wouldn't give that just yet. His kisses trailed lower, between my breasts and my abdomen. I froze."What are you doing?" I questioned, t

  • Contractually Yours, Alpha   Chapter One Hundred and Two

    The first thing I noticed when I awoke was the empty bed—Kaida was not by my side.So many times, I had spent my nights with women and left before they even woke; I had never once thought about how painful it was for them until now.Kaida wasn’t in our apartment either.The second thing I noticed was that it was already well past noon.I had been sleeping for hours—that was unlike me. I was never a deep sleeper; even the smallest noises were enough to wake me. The real question was, how had she managed to leave without me noticing? And how the hell did I sleep until noon?I rose from bed, putting on a new pair of pants and an ash grey shirt, and I walked out of my room.She was not in the training grounds either. There was only one person that would know where exactly she was. I stopped by Aric's room and knocked. There was no response.Well, I tried.I forced the door open, breaking the lock. I didn’t care that I was invading his privacy—I didn’t care what I had to invade to find her

    I could tell she wasn’t sleeping—something was on her mind."You asked me once if I believed in you," she began, and I turned to her."I remember that," I said. I could never forget her words: 'I will always believe in you—even when others don’t, even when you don’t believe in yourself,' she had said.“Now I want you to do something for me; it might be too much to ask.”“What is it?” I questioned, there was only little I wouldn’t do for her, if only she knew that."I want you to believe in me too. I want you to trust that I’ll make the right decisions." I stared at her, wondering what she wasn’t telling me, before I could question her; she spoke on, perhaps to change the topic. “How did the meeting with your grandparents go?”“I spent half the time contemplating if I made the right decision inviting them in. Sebastian had a lot to say; he believes my ‘ability’ is somehow tied to my stepbrother, Daemon.” I paused, realizing Kaida might not know much about my stepbrother.“I know Daemo

    I returned to my private chambers. I wanted to see Kaida so badly; she only could take away the tension I felt.The moment I walked in, I spotted her; she stood completely naked, her back, or rather, her ass, to me. I felt myself harden instantly. All I wanted to do was bend her over and sink my cock deep into her warmth; I yearned for her, and damn, was she my darkest obsession.She turned immediately when she heard my footsteps.“You’re back.” She said with a smile, looking slightly nervous.“You’re naked.” I pointed out.“Yes, I am. Would you prefer me fully clothed?” She asked innocently, but there was nothing innocent about this girl, named Kaida.She walked to me, swaying her hips; I watched her breasts bounce with every stride she took. gods, she was going to be the death of me. All the tension I felt disappeared, and all I could think about was her. She had that power over me. I felt my wolf pushing at my boundaries; he wanted a taste of her too.She stopped right before me, a

    ALEXANDER POV**PRESENT**“Thanks for coming.” I said to Sebastian who had his arms wrapped around Kate’s waist.They hadn’t been hard to find—maybe because they wanted to be found.“It is my pleasure; I am glad you reconsidered.” Sebastian responded.“I am glad to see you once again, Ethan.” Kate said. She didn’t seem to notice her slip; she had called me by the very name I abhorred. Acting had never been difficult for me; in fact, it had become second nature. But for some reason, around these two, keeping my emotions in check felt like a struggle. Still, I had made a promise to get through this, and I intended to keep it.“Welcome to the Nightshade pack.” I said, forcing on a smile that didn’t feel at all welcoming.I led them into the pack house and straight to the meeting room.“An apartment will be assigned to you—stay as long as you need," I said. Just as long as you keep out of my way and I don’t have to see you.“Son…” Sebastian began, but he must have seen something in my ey

    It had never gone this far before. This was the first time she had nearly drained me dry, and I knew it would not be the last.I awoke in the healing room; my vision blurred, but I could faintly make out my father’s figure standing beside me.“Where is she?”“She is in her room.” he answered.I felt a slight fear—not for myself, but for her. Something was about to go terribly wrong. And I was right.She didn’t visit, not even after I was discharged from the healers. The scar on my arms was another addition to the others, but I really didn’t care about the scars; if anyone asked, I usually came up with some crap story about how I had been bitten by a wild animal.After a whole month of not getting even a glimpse of my mother’s face, I went to visit her. I knocked on the door to her apartment, but there was no response. The bad feeling that had been growing stronger since I woke up in the healing room was even worse now. Stepping back, I broke down the door.I walked into her apartment

    ALEXANDER POV**NINE YEARS AGO**My mother, Riley, stared at me from a distance. I could see the longing in her eyes—the need to be close to her son. I saw her almost every single day—except for the times she locked herself away in her room, and yet, there seemed to be this distance between us; we could never have a normal mother-to-son relationship. I knew that. The bruise on my neck still stung, a wound inflicted by her—but I knew she hadn’t been in her right mind. I could tell the moment the switch flipped and her demon took control. I was strong enough to fight her now, but I’d rather die than hurt my own mother. The pain from each bite was bearable, but the thought of raising a hand against the woman who gave me life—that, I couldn’t endure.I waved awkwardly at her, and she smiled, teary-eyed.I walked towards her; her eyes widened in panic, and she turned around returning to her room, fleeing down the passageways, but I followed after her, and before she could shut the door on

    “Don’t be afraid; you’ve come to confess your sins and plead for mercy from the god of light; you have nothing to fear.” Julia said to me, and I nodded, but my eyes remained on the ground.High Regent Gregold rose to his feet and walked to my side.“Together, we are gathered here with the god of light’s Chosen; she has made a mistake and is here to atone for her mistakes.”“Go on.” Julia encouraged, and I finally looked up.“I had disgraced myself, this house, and everything sacred. I had brought shame and reproach; all the while I thought I was right; I thought I was missing something, but I was wrong. Everything I had ever needed was in here, but I failed to see it. I had been blinded by my own selfishness. Empress Julia helped me see my mistakes and…” I broke down, sobbing. Crying wasn’t a hard task for me; it was easy to let a few tears slide down my cheeks. “I feel so ashamed of myself; I was weak. I do not deserve the god of light’s mercy, but I plead for it.

    So many questions clouded my mind—questions about Trian. I always thought he was mysterious, but perhaps I underexaggerated it all. He left me with so many unanswered questions. How had he escaped the Pit? How had he gotten into my room? And how in the hell did he disappear into thin air?He had asked if I trusted him. I did—more than anyone in my life, though there weren’t many to begin with. He said he would come back for me; he also told me what I would have to do. I didn’t know his plans, but I had no choice but to trust him blindly.Two days passed. I knew Julia would be visiting anytime from now, but this time I was ready.The door was pulled open, and she walked in with the biggest smile on her face and a tray of food in her hands. I wasn’t very hungry; two days without food was no big deal to me, and Trian had made sure I was well fed. I knew what I had to do.“I brought you some food. But as I have told you before, it all comes with a price.” She said, “It’s just one simple t

    “How did you get out of there? It’s impossible…”He placed a finger over my lips. “No questions; I can’t answer them now.” He said and then rose to his feet.“Where are you going?”He picked up the tray of food; I hadn’t even noticed it, even if the scent filled the room; all my attention had been on him. My mouth watered instantly. “You remember the first time I snuck in some food for you?” he asked.“I’ll never forget.”He passed me the tray, and I accepted it with shaky hands. I emptied the bottle of water before emptying the plate of food. When I was done, I looked up to see he was watching me.His eyes trailed down my body, taking in the bruises, and I couldn’t help but try to hide them. I looked my worst, and I wonder if it irritated him.“Sorry I wasn’t here to protect you from that.” He said it, and I knew what he was referring to.“I deserve it.”“No, you don’t,” he said, taking a seat beside me on the bed. “If there’s a way to get you out of here, forever, would you take it?
