Eden povAll anger and annoyance faded from Kanox as the hunters were getting closer. Once they were in a distance I could see them, I realized he was right. They were, indeed, carrying a massive metal cage. Now, that made me think about their target. Who were they planning to catch? Clearly, they didn’t think of killing anyone if they brought that cage. Their intention had to be to kidnap someone. “Help!” I screamed and dug my nails in my leg, to add more pain to my voice. The men dropped the cage and ran towards me. It was getting a little hard to fake fear and pain without breaking out in laughter. But, since I had changed and learned so many things about hunters from the hunters themselves, I knew the only thing they did was make the so-called ‘monsters’ forget their humanity. If they didn’t go out of their way to hurt and kill, no one would bother them. “There. A girl! See, I told you I heard a scream!” One of the men shouted as he was getting closer to me. To up my game,
Lucius povThat day, when I took Titus back home, both of us were excited to see Eden. What we didn’t expect was to meet her in front of the castle just as we returned, covered in blood from head to toes. She refused to tell us what had happened even after a whole week passed. During the week, we carefully followed Titus’ recovery step by step. He got better, almost perfect health and it seemed that he was adjusting to his new self. Leo took the change pretty easily so that was a massive weight that was taken off my chest. And yet, up to this day, Eden still refused to tell either of us what she did in the woods that night we spent in the damn cave. It didn't matter how many times Titus and I asked the questions. We even tried to bribe her with the weirdest offers and she still refused to budge.What we did find out from her was that Asher was connected to giants somehow. He had gotten a family member in, that was how he found an easy access to the castle. The thoughts ran throug
Titus pov“Why did you bring me to the forest?” Eden gazed up at Lucius as they walked hand in hand. Her head was tilted to the side and eyebrows furrowed together. I wondered if she had any idea how cute she looked when she was confused. Lucius didn’t speak. Once she realized he wouldn’t give out anything, Eden glanced at me over her shoulder. I winked at her, but didn’t give her an answer either, siding with Lucius. Since I didn’t speak either, Eden pouted and peered at Lucius again. “You had me wear something pretty just for a walk in the forest?” She whined. But again, she was met with silence.Clearly, she wasn’t happy, contrary to how she acted minutes ago when she discovered pockets in her dress and grinned like a maniac. What was it with women and pockets? Ah, scratch the reasoning, whatever it was - the smile on her face was enough for me to want to buy her all the dresses with pockets I could find. Lucius led her to a small clearing we found on our way back to the cast
Eden povTitus claimed my mouth with wild ferocity. I moaned into the kiss as one of his hands laced through my hair, grasping a fistful of it. Titus’ other hand moved to one of my breasts and he massaged it with gentleness I didn’t expect to feel from him. Dazed by what was happening, it took me a few seconds to come to my senses. My hand moved up to his chest, I was ready to push him away, all of this was too soon, but I didn’t get to do anything as I was caught off guard by Lucius’ tongue that ran over my clit.A loud moan tore out of me against my will. Titus’ lips didn’t leave mine as he pinched my nipple, making me moan even louder than before. Lucius growled. The low vibrations against my throbbing clit sent me into a tailspin of wanting. I wasn’t exactly what I wanted, but I wanted it, all of it, badly. I balled my fist in Lucius’ hair, pushing my hips against his face. Lucius slipped his tongue inside me, kissing and licking me where I needed it the most. His hands slid a
Lucius povThe look on Eden’s face was priceless as I maneuvered her to lay on my chest. I knew she could feel the tip of my cock push against her entrance the moment her eyes widened a little more. I raised my eyebrow at her and smirked. There was no need for words or commands, she instantly understood what I expected from her. Eden slid her hand between our bodies ever so slowly, as if teasing me and finally, she gripped the base of my cock. A loud, needy groan left me as she slid her hand up and down a few times until I couldn’t take it anymore and growled at her in a warning. This teasing was too much. Eden giggled and gave up on her teasing. She positioned herself and slowly guided me inside her. Barely a tip in, another loud groan left me. I couldn’t take more of this slow and steady pace we had set. I gripped her hips and pushed up inside her with one, swift motion, making her cry out. Once I was balls deep inside her, I wrapped my arms around her and pulled Eden flush aga
Eden povI found it a little funny how quickly both of my mates could switch from one mood to another. They literally destroyed me in the woods, but once we woke up, Lucius and Titus took me back to the castle. Lucius swore up and down that we would soon go on a real date, all of us, but he also claimed it wasn’t safe for us to leave and go out in public just yet. The moment we returned, they both pecked my cheeks and headed to the office to discuss something important. To be fair, I had a feeling they could play around with Titu’s idea of him being ‘ham’, whatever the hell he meant with that. While those two were busy, I snuck off to see my boy. Walking down the halls and nearing the room, I felt like a criminal. It had been a week since the burial of Mathilda and I still hadn’t told Lucius and Titus about the promise I gave her. Yes, I might be hiding some details, but that didn’t mean I was neglecting the baby. His name was Magnus and he was the most adorable child I had ever
Eden povDeep down, I knew this was the moment I had to explain myself, but instead, I went for an attack and glared at them all. I pointed my finger at the nanny and snarled at her, “you, wipe that smug grin off your face before I do it for you. Don’t test me, I haven’t fed yet.” Her face paled as she instantly followed my command as she tried to back away. Another snarl left me. “Did I say you can leave? I don’t think so. Sit down!” The nanny was terrified, but I didn’t care. I had no idea what she thought she was doing, but pulling off a trick like this would never work in her favor. From the first time I laid my eyes on my boy, she had to understand I would go above and beyond for him. I would go against my mates for Magnus. The tension in the room faded the moment Titus gasped and my eyes snapped to him. He placed a hand over his chest and spoke, “Eden, is he mine? How could you hide a child from me?” Honestly, I had no idea why he was joking around like that, but his ridic
Lucius povI should have known better than to blindly believe our life was finally getting better. Like a child, I convinced myself that nothing could go wrong anymore. But of course, like often in life it did - everything went to shit within days. As soon as the word about our adopted son got out, the toxic rumor train took off. One after another, men flooded our territory, claiming they were the biological father of our boy. As a result, Eden refused to let the boy walk on his own, she always had him in her arms and Titus, well, he acted like a rabid dog, ready to attack anyone, who came too close to Eden and Magnus. I was left as the last sane one of our family, a peace keeper that failed all of the damn time. We did have a conversation about how Eden became the new mother of the boy soon after we found out about him. Eden claimed the maid had said that her mate died before the boy was born. It was shitty of me to make statements as such, but thankfully, she was right. The fa
Eden povI was beyond nervous as I tried to stop my hands from shaking while cutting up the vegetables. I hadn’t had enough time to figure out how to come clean with my family, but this really felt like the right time to do that. Lucius and Titus were probably already playing their guessing game about whatever they had done wrong and I wouldn’t disturb them doing that. Honestly, both of them have been acting like two hormonal teenagers these days, so they deserved a little adult worthy stress. As some of the kitchen ladies joined me and started up the usual conversations, I felt more at ease. However, every time when I glanced at the clock and saw the dinner time nearing, a new wave of unease surged through me. “Are you planning to prepare some desserts for little Magnus, my Queen?” Mayra asked, flashing me her usual bright smile. I hummed, thinking if sugar was a good idea right before bedtime. But then again, this dinner had to resemble sort of a joyful moment, so maybe it wou
§Three months after the wedding.§Titus povEden was officially ours and no one could do shit about it. Our journey had been nothing less than a deadly fucking rollercoaster ride, but the outcome was so worth it. Looking back at how things went, personally I went from thinking I wouldn’t find a mate, to finding one and being rejected, and finally, to finding out that my best friend and the woman I had grown extremely protective of were my own ‘it’. But best of all, I didn’t get only them. With them both came a family I didn’t dare to dream of and an awesome son. I didn’t tell Lucius and Eden, but if I had to choose, I would always choose Magnus. The little dude was awesome. At least sometimes he was.And now, while Eden and Lucius were busy running around the castle and fucking on top of every surface they could find, my little man Magnus and I were nearly done with building the most badass lego set ever. Well, we would be done with it ages ago if the little shit wouldn’t accuse m
Eden povThe next moment, Titus shoved me on the bed. Both my amazing mates, now husbands, didn’t return the favor they did when they were undressing me. Instead, they took off their clothes torturously slowly. Piece by piece, they dropped everything next to their feet and grinned at me like lunatics.Rolling my eyes, I groaned and turned to my side to mumble, “since you two are taking ages to undress, I might as well take a nap while you’re at it.” I knew I was playing with fire, but what was life without some spark in it? It didn’t take much time for both of them to grab my ankles and pull me to the end of the bed. Lucius instantly dropped to his knees and spread my legs. The moment his tongue ran between my folds, Titus’ lips captured mine in a passionate kiss. All of my moans were muffled and silenced by his tongue, tasing me and exploring every bit of my mouth. When Lucius slid his tongue lower, I bit Titus’ lip to break the kiss. “What?” He asked, breathless. “What is Luc
Eden povWith Richard and Magnus by my sides, I felt at ease. The door opened and the music started. As soon as we stepped on the beautiful white carpet laid down the aisle, Lucius and Titus turned their heads to look in our direction. The moment their eyes set on me, blinding smiles spread across their lips. I had never thought about my wedding day, but I never imagined that my husband-to-be would cry seeing me. In reality, I had two men who were ready to die for me, and both had tears in their eyes. As I slowly walked down the aisle, I couldn’t tear my eyes away from them. Both were wearing perfectly tailored suits, a rose in their pockets. And best of all, they were holding each other’s hand. When I finally reached them, Richard squeezed my hand, whispered, “I’m so proud of you,” and then held my wrist to offer my hand to Lucius. Magnus did the same, but he whispered that I looked beautiful and he would punch his dad’s asses if they hurt me. Richard and Magnus took their assi
Eden pov A week had passed since we returned home, like one, united family, better than ever. Lucius made it his life goal to ensure that my old pack had everything under control. As it turned out, the old Alpha was a liar, not a man of honor. He faked his disease to get rid of the responsibilities of leading a pack and while everyone worried about his health, the old Alpha lived a life of luxury. That, of course, was sponsored by the wealth left to me by my mother as well. Recently, the new Alpha and his Luna found out that the pack was nowhere near struggling financially even without my money. They had loads of cash hidden all over the place and multiple incoming money streams. We all agreed that it had to be the plan of the old Alpha and my step-mother. They had to have been planning to save up as much as they could, bleed the pack dry and take off. But as for us, our life was great. My mates were better than ever, Richard took it upon himself to bond with our son and b
Eden pov This was one of those moments when I really needed Kanox. I needed his advice or at least to hear his voice. While I had no idea what I was supposed to do, he would definitely have the answer. My eyes focused on the sick creature, wearing someone’s else’s skin as if that was no big deal. He looked human, but didn’t smell like one. Honestly, if he were to walk among other humans, I had little to no hope that anyone around him would understand that he was a sick, sinister creature, not one of their own. When he stepped so close I could smell a hint of sulfur on him, I realized he wasn’t just another supernatural. This was the first time I caught on the smell as well. “Will you first tell me the full story about my parents?” Clearly, he saw through me. I wanted to know, yes, but I also was using the question to stall, to win some time for my mates. “Of course, anything for you,” it said, grinning. I gulped, growing more nervous with every second that passed, but
Titus povI had no idea how Lucius felt about this, but what I found extremely fascinating was how the old man spoke about Eden. He sounded amazed and scared shitless at the same time. Sure, I wasn’t the best person to judge one’s character without massive amounts of information, but I could have sworn that he was just as clueless about what this ‘special’ trait was as we were. “And?” Lucius broke the silence, urging the old man to tell us more. The grunt that left him clearly was a proof of his unwillingness to tell us more, not that Lucius cared anyway. “Richard, we are done playing games. It is our mate you are talking about, Titus and I deserve to know what’s so special about Eden and exactly why that creature is after her.” My eyes darted between them two as I imagined an intense tennis match. The ball went from one side of the court to the other, never reaching the ground or the white lines surrounding them. At this rate, this imaginary match could go on for ages. “There a
Lucius pov“Where?” I growled the word as I stomped to him, grabbed his throat and squeezed it until I cut off his air supply. I trusted this fool. I trusted him with the safety of my mate and this is how it came out? He ran like a bloody coward while our mate was taken by some mad lunatic and brought Goddess knew where? Richard’s hands grabbed mine as he struggled to get out of my hold, but I had none of it. Whatever would happen next was out of my control - this time, I would allow Xabat take the fucking thing he loved almost as much as he loved our mates. Richard’s spine. Titus rushed to my side and carefully placed his hand on my shoulder. “Xabat, babe, let him go. Trust me, we need him alive. It wasn’t his fault. Don’t make this harder than it already is. Listen to what the old man has to say, maybe he has ideas where that fuckhead took Eden. We need the old man.” Honestly, I wouldn’t have released Richard. Ever. He had to pay for his carelessness and lack of attempts to save
Eden povMy eyebrows furrowed in confusion. I understood that this thing was on some weird quest because of my late mother, but why was her blood so damn important? While I was busy trying to figure it out, the creature snapped his fingers and suddenly, my eyes opened with ease. The weight was gone and nothing held me down, except for the restraints on my legs. “See, it wasn't so hard, was it?” It mocked me.My eyes scanned the dark room until they set on the black blob of nothingness in the furthest corner. I might be freaking dreaming because I could have sworn the thing was grinning at me. It had no mouth, no eyes, no limbs - nothing. And yet, I could feel his eyes on me and see the non-existent grin across the lips. “Do not worry, my lovely. I shall help you see me in a better light soon. You see, I have brought a friend with me. Trust me, you’ll love him. I chose him to fit your liking. I told you that I’ve been watching, haven’t I?” With that being said, the thing disappear
