Rory "You wouldn't want to do that, Elise." I whispered, feeling my body getting hot. "But I want to." She pulled away, her eyes sensual, her cheeks crimson. I threw a quick glance at the others. They weren't looking. Different scenarios began conjuring themselves in my head, pushing blood downwards towards a certain place. "Don't, Elise." I lowered my head, whispering into her ears. I felt her shudder beneath me, making me harden the more. Goddess, she was going to be the death of me. The dress she wore did little or nothing to cover her body infact. All I wanted to do at that moment, was to take her to a secluded place and bury myself in her. When I looked into her eyes again, they held a sensuality to them I hadn't seen before. And then she said the words I weren't expecting her to say. "Is there anything you want to do?" Her voice soft and sensual. My gaze darkened, and I gulped. "Let's get out of here." And without saying another word, I pulled her with me, venturing deep
Elise Time flew by, and soon, it was already a month since I mated with the guys. The center had also fully lifted the ban, and we were free to move around as much as we could. "Are you sure he'd agree?" I asked for the umpteenth time, that morning. Considering how I was their mate, and they were due to leave soon, they had suggested I leave with them. I hadn't objected at all, since that was also what I wanted. We all moved towards Mr Philip's office, in a row. A soft knock at the door, and a hushed response, made us open the door and walk in. I couldn't even tell if it was Mr Philip himself who had given the response. Seated behind his desk, with gleaming eyes was Mr Philip. He wiped his sweaty face with a bandana, and waved us to the seats in front. "Have a seat please," he said with a smile that was obviously forced. "You guys wanted to speak to me?" He began, once we were all seated. "We are leaving today," Lazarus began. "Yeah, although it wasn't nice having you at t
Lazarus Elise leaned on Rory's shoulders, sleeping peacefully, completely oblivious of her surroundings. "Whose pack is she going to, after this is all sorted out?" Rory asked, breaking the awkward silence in the car. "Mine of course," I rolled my eyes at the question. The other two turned their eyes simultaneously towards me. "What do you mean? She's our mate." Thomas protested. "And my pack is the safest place for her to be." I said, dominantly. "That's not happening, Zarus." Rory refuted, making me irritated. "We aren't that close. Call me Lazarus." I growled lowly. At that moment, the car suddenly swerved, jolting Elise from her sleep. She rubbed on her eyes groggily. "Are we there yet?" She asked, traces of sleepiness in her tone. She tried stretching, and then leaned back on Rory's shoulders, shifting until she was comfortable. Their position worsened my irritation. "You look like a mess." Thomas chuckled. "What?!" She hurriedly sat up, and requested for a mirror, s
THE CORRECTIONAL CENTER. Rory "Would this suffice?" I waited with bated breath, as Lazarus asked the grim faced Mr Philip who was perusing through the signed agreement. "Hm," he grunted, and stretched out his hands towards Elise, obviously for a handshake. But I beat him to it, receiving the shake instead. I stifled a frown, and forced a smile instead. Although I could tell Mr Philip was furious, he did a good job at masking it. He forced a smile. "It was good having you at our center, and we hope we have done a good job at changing you." He said. His words had an underlying meaning to it, and a taunting smile spread across my face. "We'll take our leave now, and hope never to see you again." Lazarus said, leading us out of the office. Just as I was about to step out, I slowed down my footsteps and turned to cast a last glance at him. He had a furious look on his face. I shut the door close, and lingered on, watching as the others moved away. I heard
Lazarus Thomas placed Elise on his shoulders, and helped her out of the plane. The trip had obviously worn her out. A limousine was already waiting for us the moment we were done checking out. "Destination, Alpha?" My trusted bodyguard, and driver questioned. I helped Elise into a more comfortable position, and then took my seat. "The pack." I replied. The partition between the driver's and passengers seat were drawn down, shielding his view from us. "Yes Alpha," he replied, and turned on the ignition. "So, we haven't talked about this, since we were focused on getting her out of there. Do you guys plan on staying at my pack?" I asked, once we began driving. We have to ensure she's safe before we return." Thomas replied, flicking his fingers nonchalantly. "And your packs? Do you trust your Betas to do a great job, in your absence?" I pressed on, wishing they'd just leave, and let me have her to myself. "Well, they've been doing so. A few more weeks wouldn't hurt." Rory shru
Elise The chirrups of the birds made me stir. I sat up, and was disconcerted, trying to recall where I was. "May I come in Luna?" I heard an unfamiliar voice drift over the door. I frowned. Luna? "Come in," I said absentmindedly. The door swung open, and two maids walked in. They were dressed in uniform; a yellow dress, and black sash, across. "Good morning, Luna." They bowed, and remained in that position. For a moment, I didn't know how to react. I had never been addressed so respectfully, before. Then, I snapped. "Good morning," I got up from my bed, and gave a low bow. I had already grown accustomed to respecting others, and not the other way round. However, my actions made the eyes of the maids go wide. "No, please, don't!" They panicked. "Why not?" I frowned, adjusting my position and standing straight. "We are here to help you dress up. The Alpha's orders. Please you don't have to greet us. It is forbidden." One of them said. I noticed that their heads remained
Rory The castle was somewhat silent, as every occupant within, retired for the night. It was at that moment, we finally left the woods, to return to our various rooms. The only sounds that were heard, were that of the night insects. Not a single word was exchanged between us, as we walked into the castle. "Are we really going to sleep without talking to her?" I whispered, as we walked passed her room. I halted, a troubled look crossing my face. Lazarus stared through the window, at the full moon, which hung on the sky, whose beams snaked in, through the windows, creating a solemn feeling. He also had a desolate look on his face. Well, at least, we were united on this one. "My mom would be returning tomorrow." He said, changing the topic. We turned to look at him. Back at the center, before the arrival of Elise, we had bonded and had known about each other. Considering the fact that we also attended the same school. So, we knew the history behind his mother. "Your stepmom, you
Elise It was morning, and I decided to take a stroll around the castle, wanting to feast my eyes on the beauty of the pack. My body felt sore from yesterday's events. The thought made my cheeks turn crimson. Rory was sure insatiable. Just then, Thomas intercepted me. I took a brief glance at him. He was dressed in a black outfit. Black shirt, and fitting pants. An epitome of handsomeness. "Going somewhere?" He asked in a calm manner. I nodded. "Yeah, I want to take a stroll around. You know, stretch my limbs. You?" I smiled. "Well, I had no idea what I wanted to do. But I guess we could go together." He suggested. A broad smile spread across my face. "Sure, let's do that." I chuckled. We took a route, passing through a garden with beautiful flowers. We soon got to a beautiful forest. Tall trees littered around. “Why don't we take a stop here?” I looked around the forest, smiling at how beautiful it was. Dazzling would be the word for it. He took a look around, and nodded i
The rain poured down as hard as it could, the splatters, creating a little puddle in holes, by the roadside. The cloudy sky didn't show if it'd stop raining anytime soon.Rory sat on a chair, by the roadside, watching as he had been doing, before it even started raining. And he didn't have any intention of leaving anytime soon.His phone was tucked in his coat pocket, and without worries that the rain might damage it, not that it would anyway, he whistled to himself.He couldn't tell how long he had been sitting for, giving no reaction whatsoever. Not even when a concerned middle-aged man had offered him an umbrella. He hadn't accepted it, nor did he thank the man. Not even when a drenched dog, had barked its way close to him.He sat still, his hands placed on his wet lap, studying the wet environs. The air was filled with the sweet smell of rain meeting Earth. Although he wasn't in the mood to acknowledge the beauty of nature, he couldn't help but take a deep breath.Just then, his ph
CHAPTER 105The sun had just set behind the mountains, and the sky had turned into a beautiful shade of orange and pink. The atmosphere was filled with bliss.As the night wore on, the drinking began. The members of the pack passed around large jugs of honey wine, which they drank from large gourds. The wine flowed freely, and soon everyone was feeling a little light-headed and giddy. The merriment continued late into the night, with people laughing and singing, and the drums beating in the background.Finally, as the moon rose high in the sky, there was a sudden hush. Almost as if tye merriment spirit had been seized. Little by little, they all retired to their various homes, till there was no one left at the square.As Alpha Rory stood gazing through the window, at the view outside, his imposing figure wasn't masked. He was one with broad shoulders. It was already hours since Elise left his mansion, and he was already changed into another outfit. He was dressed in a fine silk robe,
CHAPTER 104."Why don't we go to my place?" Alpha Rory said, making Elise blink. "What?" She frowned."Please." And he shrugged, throwing a look towards her son.She was silent for some minutes. And when she spoke, against her wish, she found herself saying "Okay."Seeing the contented smile that spread across his face at her response, made her want to desperately eat her words. However, she decided against it, when her son suddenly dashed into the room.She threw a long angry look at Rory who was still intently watching her, without a word. She followed suit, as she decided to get ready. If she was right, by 'my place,' he probably meant his pack. If that was right, then she knew she had to get ready. She massaged her temple, suddenly feeling dizzy. Everything was happening so fast that she felt she couldn't keep up.....The car pulled over at the front of a beautiful looking mansion, and Elise stepped down from it. Her son followed suit.The grandeur of the mansion at their front
"So, what do you say, young man?" Alpha Rory questioned, as he watched the young man who was nonchalantly sipping on the glass of wine which had been served to him. They were currently at his pack.And for the umpteenth time, Rory wondered if he had acted in his own interest at all.Barely after his decision to while away time at a private island the previous day, which hadn't actually worked. All the time he had spent at the island, had filled his mind with nothing but thoughts of Elise. Was he that soft?"Why did you abduct me?" He heard the young man say yet again, and his gaze darted to him. He remained silent for a while, without a word. In his eyes was the same spark which Elise's held. The calm and calculated way in which he spoke was the same with Elise's. Uncanny resemblance."You're being trailed." Without mincing words, Rory said. He didn't let his gaze leave the latter. What was his name again? Alex was it? That was right.However, when his expression didn't change, Rory's
A CLUB"Having fun?" Rieka asked loudly, staring at Aella.Her voice wasn't loud as expected. The music in the club was too loud and Aella wouldn't be able to hear her if she didn't raise her tone."Yeah," Aella nodded, smiling. Rieka has been by her side ever since her parents passed away. She has helped in so many ways by caring for her and consoling her when needed. She had helped her out of the trauma of the death of her parents.Aella looked at her lovingly."What?" Rieka caught her staring at her. "Come on, don't get all emotional right now. Let's have fun tonight, okay?" Rieka urged."Oh! Yeah…. We should," they both laughed heartily.Rieka smiled deeply as they held each other's hands while dancing. It's been long she saw her best friend smile this way. It wasn't a bad idea bringing her here, anyways. Aella's happiness has always been a priority to her since they shared the same pain. Pain of not having parents to look after them. They were just 22.She sighed. She must make
CHAPTER 101.The sunlight poured into the room immediately Elise pulled back the curtains. She winced, and returned them to their original positions.She had slept in, and was feeling so fatigued. The previous night, she had a movie night with her dear son, and it was taking a toll on her. She glanced at her skin. It wasn't wrinkled one bit.Would she never become human? She sighed and was about to head back to her room, when she heard the doorbell ring. Her eyes narrowed. She had no human friend, and wasn't even expecting anyone. Who was it at the door?With agile steps, she hurried to the door. Her heart thudded against her chest, as her tempo increased. As it always did whenever she sensed something ominous.A young smiling man was at the door, when she opened it. Her brows narrowed, as she tried recalling where she'd seen him. "And you are?" Not trusting herself to speak, especially not to a stranger, she let the words out. He didn't respond. Her frown deepened. She was still a
CHAPTER 100.“You look absolutely lovely.”I nodded with a small smile and she led the way out of the room and into the hallway. We passed by several maids, all dressed in the same black and white uniform she had on, running up and down the halls, dusting surfaces while chattering away.They’d pause briefly, staring me up and down and muttering incoherent words, and then they’d go back to their cleaning. I felt quite uncomfortable under their watchful eyes, but the maid in charge of me, whose name I did not yet know, gave my hand a small squeeze and whispered into my ears.“They’re all saying you look lovely.” I smiled at her, thankful that I had someone that nice looking after me.We soon arrived at the door to the throne room and she stopped just before me.“I’ll be out here waiting.” She said, I muttered a ‘thank you’ to her before disappearing behind the doors.The throne room was enormous, with sunlight pouring in from the large windows and every inch of the room screaming royalt
CHAPTER 99.The words were out before he could stop it. He turned his gaze away, and looked through the window, at the sky which was getting darkened every seconds that passed by."Me too," It was moments before he heard the soft whisper, behind him. He turned in doubt, as if afraid it had been his imagination."It seems it wants to rain," Elise whispered in the dark. As if to confirm her words, a flash of lightning crossed the sky."I guess." He replied, with a nod, at loss of what to say.Silence reigned, none of them venturing to speak. He felt the edge of the bed sink in, and turning to see what it was, softness pressed against his chest. He gulped loudly."What are you doing?" He whispered hoarsely."Doing what you're deliberating within yourself, to do." She replied, as she wiggled her hip gently.Gently, not moving her gaze away from his, she straddled him, and grinded softly against him. He moaned softly, and wrapped his hands around her waist, pressing her harder against him.
CHAPTER 98. LARKIN The woods was silent, as I walked deeper into it. I avoided the thorny shrubs, clasping my hands behind my back, and humming a tune to myself. So relaxed, was I, like I had nothing to do that morning. Like I didn't promise my mother to help her clean up the house. The woods was dark, the only source of light, was the Sundays, which cut down through the leaves on their branches, above. I soon got to my favorite spot, and began stripping, when I suddenly heard a sound. My ears perked up, and a frown crept up my face. I whirled around towards the direction where the sound had come from, however, I didn't move an inch. I listened yet again, and heard it. It sounded low, than the former. Cracked, like someone in pain. With my heart thudding against my chest, I inched closer to the thicket. I gulped down nervously, but strangely enough, I wasn't afraid. "Any one there?" I called out, boldly. I soon got to a huge tree, and a glance made me gasp.Crouched at the sid
