Mia’s Pov“Why? Excited, Fire?” I squealed as he dropped his pants, with his briefs. I instantly turned around, covering my eyes. “You don't have to be shy, Fire. It's all yours to claim anyway.” I heard him before something weird started to happen. I froze, the faint groans and unsettling sounds of bones shifting caught my attention. My heart quickened as I felt tempted to have a look. As the groans intensified, my curiosity overpowered any fear that threatened to take hold.I watched in awe and disbelief as Christian's body underwent a profound transformation. His form blurred, and the air seemed to ripple around him. Bones cracked and realigned. The groans became more pronounced, resonating through the air like a primal chorus.Suddenly, Christian stood on all fours, his sleek silver fur glistened in the daylight. His eyes, now a vibrant amber, locked onto mine with an untamed intensity. The once familiar human features were replaced by the majestic presence of a large wolf. I to
Mia's PovI lied on the soft grass with Christian beside me, still in his wolf form. Although his weight was completely off me, he decided to rest his head on my stomach. Every few minutes he would bring his head up to my neck, take a few sniffs and lick it before resting his head back. I was enjoying the silent environment and the comfort I got with him. His body kept me warm and fuzzy with his fur all around. It was then that an idea crossed my mind. I had always wanted to take a dip in the lake. It was something very little, but had always been on my bucket list. I shifted and Christian raised his head at my movement, looking at me with curious eyes. Slowly crawling away from him, he let out a low growl of disapproval on missing my touch. Getting up to his feet, he started taking steps in my way when I stopped him right there. “Don't move.” He stilled at my words and I literally saw him frowning in his wolf form. It was honestly so cute to see him like that, when his appearance wa
MIA My breath hitched as his soft lips met mine. I trembled in his hold, not being able to make sense of my surroundings. It was just me and him and the water created soft ripples around us. Christian pulled me closer if it was even possible, plastering me to himself. A groan left his mouth as he nibbled and tugged on my lips, molding me into him. His hot, rough hands ran on my back, making my skin hot in the cold water. I turned into a mush in his hold, as he continued playing with my lips. This was the first time I had kissed anyone. It was hot, passionate, and full of desire. I gasped as I felt some hardness rubbing my stomach. I wasn't sure if it was what I thought it was. It surely had to be my imagination. It couldn't be so …..big. Christian took the opportunity to shove his tongue in my mouth and a torturous moan escaped my lips. I melted into his touch, feeling spark and shivers erupt everywhere. My mind was in a haze and I lost myself in his touch. He sucked on my lips lik
MIA “Balthazar used to go often to meet with someone important. I'm not sure what his name was, but I overheard him referring to someone as the Great Master. I'm not sure who he is, but by the sounds of it, it's like he is some elderly guy that Balthazar took important advice from.” Dominic narrowed his eyes at my response. Christian sat beside me while Arnold sat across from me. We were currently in the pack’s meeting room “Do you know where he used to go? Ever overheard him mentioning the place?” I thought hard about what Christian asked. Trying hard to search in my memory and come across anything like that. But much to my dismay, I didn't.“I'm afraid not. The only thing I remember is that whenever he used to go, he would come back from there at least a day or two later. So I guessed that wherever that place was, it was far enough for him to take so long to return. And for all I know, Balthazar would never leave willingly, having the coven unattended for even a few hours, let alo
MIA“She claims to call herself Sylvia.” My eyes narrowed as I thought I heard him wrong. Sylvia? What was she doing here? How did she get here in the first place? I got up from my seat and dashed out of the room. I heard everyone follow behind me, but I didn't care enough to turn back. I walked straight out of the pack house, into the pack grounds to see some of the warriors crowded around someone. That someone being Sylvia obviously. “Don't you dare move an inch from here, you witch.” One of the warriors warned her. “You know none of you stand a chance against me. One spell and all of you are done. Just let me see Mia. I come in peace, so you better make sure not to destroy it,” Sylvia, being her sassy self, told everyone off. And the warriors honestly looked shocked at the confidence she was oozing. Not once she gave away anything about feeling terrified, standing one against what looked like fourteen warriors. “Sylvia!” I called out, and all the heads turned towards me. Her eye
MIAA chilling shiver raced down my spine as the dreadful news echoed in my ears, leaving me paralyzed in a state of utter shock and disbelief. For a moment I thought I had misheard. But then she repeated it, clearing any confusion. “Alpha Mathews is your father, Mia.” I couldn't blink, my eyes were fixed on him, as he looked down at his hands in sadness. So he wasn't lying. Why, why was he sad? He didn't want me as his daughter? Why did he throw me away? Why? Why did he come back now? Where was he all those years if he knew I was his daughter. Why didn't he try to find me? “What are you saying, Sylvia? Do you even know—” “She's telling the truth. Like I said earlier, Cassandra was my mate. And you are a carbon copy of her.” Alpha Mathews cut me off as my world shattered. A tear escaped my eye, one that I didn't know was threatening to fall. So all this time, I had a family, a real one. And they knew who I was to them, but they didn't bother letting me know. Wow. I felt Christian’
MIA'S POVSylvia stood silent, looking at the ground in guilt. And that was enough to let me know the answer to my questions. She had misled me. Lied to me. “You knew didn't you? Yet you lied? Why?” My voice came out in a mere whisper. “Mia, I had no choice. Please you have to understand—” she sounded very guilty, as if begging me to listen to her. “Why? Why should I understand? You were the one who made me believe that it wasn't possible. If you were really on my side, you could have simply told me the truth!” I yelled at her. “Mia, I was scared. If Balthazar found out that you found your mate, it wouldn't have ended right.” Sylvia looked between Christian and me. “Oh, really now? Yet you pushed me into Christian's arms willingly that day. You knew he was my mate. You saw it. Yet you denied it. Do you even have any idea, the conflict I faced during this time? My heart and my mind rebelling against each other, fighting the most horrendous war, and you are saying that you did it fo
CHRISTIAN'S POVMy heart churned painfully seeing Mia in this state. It made me want to rip Balthazar apart in peaces. If only he hadn't taken her away and threatened Sylvia with their lives, this wouldn't have been happening and I would have found Mia sooner. In this whole situation, I know, Alpha Matthews was not the one to be blamed. Yet he was ready to take all of it, if it meant having his daughter close to him. I however was not aware of Sylvia being Cassandra's sister. That was news even for me. Dominic had given me a heads up about the whole Alpha Mathews situation. So I knew this was going to unravel sooner or later. But it was still not fair to Mia. Everything that she had been through. But was there anything anyone could do about it all? Not really. All I knew was that I just wanted to be there for her whenever she needed it. And I will hold her when she thinks she is going to fall. She doesn't even know how much she has me wrapped around her fingers. One command from her,
