Serenity’s POVWalking with Bentley and Alpha Gavin towards their car, I did not look up for Bear. I busted into uncontrollable tears. The tears I suppressed would later be released from causing me pain later tonight, especially with Brady’s rejection.Not feeling the pain of his rejection now would come in full fledge much later.I only hope I can cope with it better than when I used to feel pain from his mating session with Lottie.I should be able to handle whatever pain springs up now that I’ve gotten closure.Alpha Gavin helped me inside as we approached the door. I lowered my head, and he closed the door after me.Soon, we were en route to Yellow Gem - away from the cabin.Alpha Gavin’s free hand reached across to me as he drove. I’m afraid to look at him, fearing he might harbour resentment toward me.But then I remember he doesn’t know I had sex with Brady just yet.Or could he have caught on but wanted to let it slide since I would be his woman now?Even if he knew we had ma
Serenity’s POVAlpha Gavin’s hands instinctively move to his man's flesh resting between his thighs, and that tiny spark I thought was gone comes to life as he strokes his girth.“Gawd…you are so beautiful. I can’t believe those curves are mine.” His eyes wandered to my body like he had not seen me unclad before. His sweet words made me respond in want, awakening the connection that was only discovered but not nurtured. We were chosen mates, seeing as we didn’t belong to one another. The freedom to do as I pleased without prying eyes or guilty feelings relaxed me.He looks at my breasts and says: “Those are the boobies of a Luna, and I will make sure to sow my seed soonest so I can taste your breastmilk. I will have kids as smart and gorgeous looking as their mother.”I didn’t feel like a luna. If anything, I thought I couldn’t measure up. I was still discovering myself and finding my identity. All my life, I was reckoned as the daughter of an Alpha, but later, I found out I was born
Serenity’s POV“I can’t take it anymore. I want to claim you now.” Alpha Gavin whispers as his lips salivate on my neck region, and heat begins to well up in my wet sex from his touch and gaze.Everything about what he was doing to me and how I responded felt right and wrong at the same time.It was that good when you knew it felt wrong, too.But the wrong was a bad omen.I shut my mind off any thought as I gave into him and the desires that were rising in me. The two were one. Brady and I had no future, but why did I always encourage hope?I knew I had a more lasting future with Alpha Gavin, as he had only me.While Brady had Lottie.If I ended up with him, I’d be at loggerheads with Lottie for life and never lead a happy home.It’s no woman’s dream to share her spouse or her matrimonial home with another.To further emphasise my point, I whisper to Alpha Gavin: “Do with me as you wish.”Alpha Gavin growled excitedly that I had given him rights to the passage, even though a small pa
Serenity’s POV]When dawn came, a tray of freshly made kaya toast greeted my nostrils as Alpha Gavin entered the bedroom. I had not noticed when he left my side.“Morning, sunshine. I hope you had a good night's sleep. I made you breakfast.” He said, placing the tray on a nearby stool before helping me sit up so I could eat.I smiled in reverence to his sweetness.As I straightened on the bed for breakfast, Alpha Gavin picked up the toast to feed me.“What time is it?” I asked as I searched the wall for a clock, but there was none.Alpha Gavin glanced at his Apple watch before replying: “It’s eleven forty.”“Eleven forty?” I said in shock. I had slept far too long.A slight grin plastered his face as he said, “I guess last night took its toll on you, indeed.”I just remembered yesterday when he mentioned it. My brain reminded me as it replayed everything that went down the night before and after my appearance at Yellow Gem.I tried to focus on the food before me, but the replay somehow
Serenity’s POVI didn’t expect Luna Bella to see I was shedding tears in the bathroom or to bring me clothes. As she looked fixedly, I could see the worry of a mother looking at her child. I knew she loved me like one, but I wasn’t so confident about that. Talking about Brady in light of being mated to her son may only upset her.Rather than divulging all the information, I say, “The last few days have been a lot. I feel confused and need some help processing it all.”As I set the clothes on the armchair, Luna Bella motioned towards me and took my hands. “Serenity dear, you have put up with a lot. It’s only normal that you require space and time. I told Alpha Gavin that already, but you so smite him. Perhaps I will have his father speak with him, and we can schedule a Luna initiation a few weeks from now, giving you enough time to think through this. No need to hurry, and if it’s meant to be, then it shall be. Love is always worth waiting for. Till you guys say yes forever, keep takin
Serenity’s POVA crushing air of despair gnawed in my chest as I gaped at the two wolves painted in the mural. I had never seen Lottie in wolf form, so I could not tell.But surely now I know she is the one. I’m most interested in how she bagged such a guy as Alpha Gavin. What did she do to make him engrave her wolf form on the ceiling? Indeed, the two must have dazzled in love, foreshadowing Brooke in the background. I didn’t want to know the details. What’s there to tell besides the passionate connection they must have shared?With such a high level of expressive love, I started to feel a lot more insecure about competing with a woman who had her wolf forever remembered in this room through that mural—and perhaps forever remembered in Alpha Gavin’s heart.“I had painted the mural for her after discovering she was my second chance mate. And this room was hers then.” Oh, I see. Lucky him. He got to meet his second-chance mate, which was a rarity.“We were a lot younger, and she wante
Serenity’s POVWater splashed in my nose, and my wolf sneezed as she shifted back into human form for me.Alpha Gavin surfaced from the water, laughing and throwing handfuls toward me. I reciprocated the splash as I said: “You cheated. Duh.”“I didn’t cheat. You did.” He said as he snatched my hand when I least expected it. But there was nothing forceful about his touch.“I guess we both owe each other a massage now.”“You see—that’s why I said you cheated. It’s like you knew I would tumble over you, causing us both to land in the pool.” I tackled him. Instead, he silenced me with another kiss on my lips. I couldn’t get mad because I liked it very much. I liked his soft lips on mine.The kiss brought back memories of the first night he brought me here after the rogue incident. That also happened to be the same night I had fallen for him. No doubt I found him sexually appealing, and there was no reason why I shouldn’t give him a chance if my heart says to love. As much as he took my b
Serenity’s POVAlpha Gavin drew me close and kissed the tip of my forehead. “I apologise, Serenity. I didn’t mean to scare you like that.” My heart was still racing a second per minute, and I knew he could feel the uprise and downward movement of my chest pressed against his chest. I calmed my nerves by taking his hand. I already lost a fated mate. I wasn’t about to lose another physically, too.Slowly, we moved to the edge of the pool, and Alpha Gavin got me out. In the process, I observed a small chronological box resting on the tiles.“What could that be?” I enquired as I gazed at it, wondering if it had been there all along.“That’s the surprise I had for you. The reason I took so long was because of that,” he said, going down on his knees as he unlocked the box. When we were much younger, you used to visit. Bentley and I were making a chronological box wherein selected objects could be kept for future discovery. You were so little back then, and you insisted you added something
Serenity’s P.O.V.Who would have thought that our last-minute enemy victim would be Bentley - my sweet and loving brother who could not hurt a fly except for justice?What Lucho's bastardity had caused him! What his craziness had cursed us!By now, he was walking towards me, glinting in his eye like he wouldn't hurt me.But soon, his eye colour changed to a deeper orange, and he lifted me above his shoulders - wanting to strike me against the floor."No!" Alpha Cruz aimed for his leg, which caused him to lose balance.I fell with a terrible pain to my ache.With no time to waste, Alpha Cruz landed on me.Bentley picked him up instead, and just when he was about to throw him against the wall, someone shot a poisoned dart at Bentley's carotid sheath on his neck. That meant instantaneous death.I quickly got up, recovering from the shock so Bentley wouldn't fall atop me.Just like that, the bottle-weary war had ended with a poisoned dart.But who had shot it?It never even occurred to m
Serenity's P.O.V.To my shock, Alpha Gavin and his parents had come - alongside Penn and Claudia.“Lucho bastard, you die today!” Alpha Atticus roared at him in his command Alpha tone.Lucho grinned. "I see the whole crew came." "We have heard enough of your tyranny. Enough is enough!" Luna Bella bellowed."Serenity, I'm sorry for ruining your wedding - which gave this bastard the guts to kidnap you…""This is not the time for an apology, Penn!" Claudia whispered, but I could hear her coughing. Claudia then continued, "This is just the right time to finish off this bastard scientist and his psychopath," she said, pointing at Vino.Like the psychopaths they were, Lucho and Vino roared in laughter, tears spilling from the corner of their eyes."But if this is of any comfort, Penn rejected Alpha Gavin." Claudia chipped.At this moment, I couldn't be angry with Penn and Gavin.I was more than glad they had come to the rescue. A greater comfort would be to revive my brother…Even at that,
Serenity's P.O.V.Lucho was still trying to put his words together when a soft knock could be heard on the door.Expecting it to be one of his men, Lucho flung back on his shirt and beckoned on his standing guard to open the door.I had just noticed a third party in that room.He had stood like a silent shadow at the far end of the library corridor - right in Lucho's room.Maybe if I had seen him earlier, I'd have known he wouldn't try making love to me in the presence of his men.Once the door opened, we both were surprised to see who was at the door."Who had let you in without my consent?" Lucho's voice became cold, and his stern gaze could almost command submission from any Alpha except Vino.Alpha Vino - a vile snake.Neither here nor there.He moved like the wind.One couldn't decipher whose side he was on.Rumour had it that he was the only Alpha that made Lucho on edge."I'm here to present you a gift." Alpha Vino said."And what could that be?" He asked, still maintaining a fr
Serenity's POVI woke up in a cosy bed full of sunlight.Immediately, I jerked up from sleep when I saw Lucho lying by my side. "What are you doing here?" I asked him, suddenly noticing I had a new change of clothes."I should be asking you." He retorted. "You sure sleep like a baby." He rather commented."Where is my brother?" "Relax. He is with my cousin right now." He replied, and I eased, but not completely."And what would your cousin do to him?" I became afraid. "Hope you're not going to hurt him." Rather than answer, he got up from the bed and walked over to me. "That depends on your behaviour tonight." He leaned close to my ears, and I tried to move, but he gripped my arms in a loving embrace. "And not just tonight. Always."I gulped while he studied my countenance. "Relax. I've not had a woman in this room for donkey years. Ever since your brother killed my beloved. You look so much like her. And now, I've taken an interest in you. For that, I won’t hurt you. But you mustn
Serenity's POVI had only heard that Lucho was a mad scientist, but I didn't know the extent to which his experiments had gone until I saw something that looked like a giant bird. It mimicked an aeroplane, but it wasn't one.I was too stunned to speak.I was hoping he'd at least shove me inside. Only to see his hands stretched gently to take mine."Come in. I promise I won't hurt you." His voice contrasted with the negative things I'd heard about him. At this moment, he didn't seem evil."I don't want to go with you." I put up a defiant tone. Not so defiant, though.I tried as much as possible to hide my shaky tone."That is not your choice to make. You must come with me if you want the people you love alive." His tone remained gentle, but a rising firmness rose beneath it.I had better not provoke him."What would you do with me? What do you want? Why are you attacking us?" I had a lot of questions for him.I didn't think he'd answer them, but then, I was desperate."Alpha Gavin bro
Serenity's P.O.V.How could he show up when his life was forfeit?What if Alpha Gavin saw him?Why did he have to stir up trouble again?I'm wedding today. He should be far from me if he wants my happiness indeed. Is he here to wreck my wedding? Because that will not work.I became a bit agitated, but I did not let it show. He walked up to me smiling, stretching out a hand. I let him. This would be the last time he would be too close for comfort."You look stunning and peaceful," he complimented me, and I didn't know how to reply, so I just looked at him."I have known you for ages, Serenity. First, as my adopted sister. And then my fated mate. We've been through a lot. You wanted to give us a chance, but I realised it was too late. It's my cross to carry for life, but I'm glad the goddess had favoured you and did not leave you as I did. Alpha Gavin is a great guy, and he loves you to boot. I want you to know that you have my blessing as someone who was once a brother, Serenity. We m
Serenity's P.O.V.Penn readjusted on her seat and continued. "Dick assassination is slang for feasting on his dick like a beastly whore. You feast on him so well that he feels like his soul is leaving his body.""Oh, I see. Make his soul leave his body each time he craves intimacy." I took a quick mental note."This is when you rock your man's dick shamelessly and constantly bring him on edge - not allowing him to release until you permit him. Let me tell you how to edge a man. There are different ways to do that. Including how to use your thumb and forefinger. Are you ready?" Penn asked, and I hurriedly nodded in response. "Get him close to cumming, then squeeze the area between his balls and anus while talking dirty. Then, allow him to rest for at least 1 minu
Serenity's P.O.V."And made me orgasm countless times. He takes his time in bed. But he knows how to discipline me when the occasion calls for it." I told her. I was getting aroused talking about it. But Penn was just getting started."I'm glad you got some good dick. That's a man right there! This night - it'd be your turn to ride him and fuck his brains out. Don't go easy on him…"She started to give advice, and I had to raise my hands to stop her. "Penn, thanks for the jewellery, but we must listen now. Two hours is up…"Instead, Penn cut in, forcing me to sit. "Before we head out, let me coach you a little. You know I'm an expert in this field. I could teach you a lot. Just because a man has fucked you
Serenity's P.O.V.We arrived there, and our attendants were waiting to take Luna Bella's order.Epsom salt, mirrors, and scented oils - all sorts of beauty treats. I knew it would take a while to get me washed up.An omega gave me a special herbal paste on my gum and tongue.After brushing, my teeth got cleaner and whiter than usual.It was beautiful, and I had to ask what was in the herbal paste.I was told it was a mixture of clove, pink salt, cardamom, cinnamon, parasite flusher, and turmeric powder, among other things.I promised myself that I would make it a habit to use thi
