Serenity’s POVLast night, when I closed my eyes to sleep, I saw Brady towering over me - with his canines extending to make me. I couldn’t tell whether it was a nightmare or a dream. Like in real life, I couldn’t know if I was living a dream or a nightmare. I could safely say I was living both. A dreamare it was. Some days, it seemed like he wanted to be with me and that I was in the wrong for pushing him aside.And when I did want him, the rogues got in the way.Confusion welled up inside me, and my first thought was that he would continue to hurt me.Except that the way he had handled me last night wasn’t giving any intent of hurt.He said he wanted me.Anger plagued my thoughts.Sometimes, I saw nothing stopping us from being together.We could both damn the consequences.I tossed and turned all night long as tears filled my eyes.Alpha Gavin did an excellent job of hugging me to sleep. He kept persuading me not to worry about anything. It was easy for him to say. He wasn’t seeing
Gavin’s POVWhen Bentley came home with Serenity last night, I could sense Brady’s scent all over her. To think that I almost lost her to him woke me up from my slumber. I needed to make her my Luna real quick.I’m not stupid. I know what went down.I wished I had been the one to unbox her innocence but Brady just had to cheat me.I’d pay him back double the price by making her wifey.That would be his first and last chance with her.And she would be mine forever to keep unboxing.I’m not happy either.Brady no longer belonged in her life bu
Serenity’s POVLast night, I was glad that Alpha Gavin understood my plight of not wanting to be with him like I had been with Brady. It’d make me too uncomfortable. I needed enough space to rinse him out of my system. I can’t help but think Gavin feels the same way.Thankfully, a week was enough time to do so.In a week, I’d be this pack, Luna.I’m nervous even though this feels like the right thing to do.Plus, there was the fact that the mate bond had yet to be severed between Brady and me.I wasn’t ready to tell Gavin that just yet. The painful blow I dealt him was enough.I w
Serenity’s POVHow smart of Luna Bella to put the pieces together. I wasn’t in the least surprised. But I was shocked she caught on quickly. I had wanted this to be kept a secret. And now she has found out just from being observant.Before I could answer her, she added: “No need to give a response. The answer is written on your face. I knew there had to be a reason as to why you’d give in to Brady. And when I thought about it, this was the only logical reason I came up with. My question to you now is, who is your choice of mate?”This question was even more of a shocker than the previous one. At this moment, Alpha Gavin was my safe bet because he had demonstrated mature love, but there would always be a toxic part of me that wanted Brady to prove himself true, especially w
Brady’s POVHaving to leave that night after our love session and seeing how much pain that caused her put me in a tight fix. It was hard for me to go, but I needed to track down those gaddamn rogues if I needed to set things right. I wouldn’t have those rogues slip from my fingers. Exterminating them is equivalent to getting back my lifelong happiness. I know that claiming Serenity as a mate would be the smallest of my problems.Alpha Gavin undoubtedly had more advantage over me, and Serenity would do what was best for her.But what we had was special, too.I’m sure she’d never forget the bed we shared in a hurry.I was her first.Ladies, don
Brady's POVGradually, I moved towards the forest cover where the hare was standing off the corner and knew I could jump on it in a matter of few leaps. I readied myself to leap into the clearing. I took one last look at the group of hares to my left before I returned to focus on my prey, and then jumped out of the forest cover towards the hare that was oblivious to my ambush.Just as I jumped and landed on the hare’s back, I heard a sound emanate from my right, and my head turned to receive an unwelcome visitor with a familiar scent lurching towards my direction. In swift motion, I sunk my teeth into the deer and threw my weight to the left, away from the charged visitor.The wolf, his fangs bared and his canines howling, was spoiling for a fight. I could see the intent to kill in his eyes, and
Serenitty’s POV“How about this one?” Luna Bella held out a beautiful white dress to me. All were very beautiful laces and I found it hard to make my pick.I missed my mother being here with me. With everything that had happened, my parents were super lucky to even be given an invitation to the ceremony.I had a weird feeling that Luna Bella knew my mother had set the whole thing up with Brady finding me at the vacation house. And I doubt she was happy about that, especially after she had trusted my mother to guide me in making a wise decision.It was obvious both Lunas wanted me to be with their sons but there could only be one Serenity. And two of them.I had to choose at the end of the
Serenity’s POVThat evening at supper, Bentley’s seat remained unoccupied but his chair wasn’t the only vacant one. Alpha Gavin wasn’t on seat too and I became anxious as to why they were absent. I had already learned in my short time here that eating together was a family business. Whatever was keeping them occupied against having to join us must be an urgent business too.Just making sure, I bear my worries. “Is everything alright with Alpha Gavin and my brother?” I ask Alpha Atticus and his wife; my gaze never leaving Alpha Gavin’s seat. It seemed I was more worried for him than my brother.Alpha Atticus spoke up rather easily, “He needed to take care of an important issue. These issues arise often. You will get used to it as his luna.”
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
