GAULINAVIA Elise"And who is she?" I heard a high pitched voice ask, immediately I did. A frown crept up my face, as my gaze landed on a heavy make-up covered lady.Her hair was tied up, in a brown ponytail, leaving her slender neck bare. She was a beauty, that was a fact. However, I couldn't place the words I had heard them say earlier on.I hadn't also missed the nervous look on Lazarus's face earlier, when I had spoken."Um... Elise." Lazarus began saying, locking gaze with me. "Oh, this is your fling, I presume?" I heard the lady's voice say, yet again, but I ignored her this time.I wasn't going to jump into conclusions, without confirming it, from Lazarus. Life's taught me, enough not to be swayed by mere facts."Sasha, be kind to the Luna, else, I'd throw you out." Lazarus's Beta said.My brow curved into an arch. Her name was Sasha? Where had I heard the name before? I squinted my eyes. She looked oddly familiar too. Where had I seen her?"Lazarus..." I called out a
SASHAThe night was starry, as I sat outside. I sipped on my glass of wine, and made to effort to adjust my creased brows.My heart was filled with nothing but rage. The cool breeze which played on the leaves of trees, one, under which I was seated.Lazarus had a mate? I clicked my tongue, yet again, as I waited for someone. Someone that'd be the right person to cause chaos, in the semi peaceful castle.They were happy, weren't they? He had no right to be with another woman. I was his, and he was mine.I heard a rustle sounds, from feet, meeting the dried leaves on the ground. I turned sharply, my ears alert. I couldn't afford to let any other person, aside that person see me.A uniformed woman, with a cloak appeared from behind the thicket.She drew close, and bowed. "My lady." Her voice was somewhat shaky, and I could tell she was nervous. Her fingers shook, as she clasped them, over the other."Who is she?" I asked calmly, rising to my full height.She was the head c
Amelia's new lover was desperate to make her his mate, but then, she flees....Henry walked into his living room. He was just coming back from the bar. His steps halted and his gaze fixated on the ladies seated on his couch in the living room.They hurriedly stood up and bowed when he came in,"Welcome back Master Henry." They bowed.Henry grunted in response as his eyes roamed over their body. He knew they were sent by King Amal. The girls were curvy and we'll endowed.The dress they wore did little or nothing to cover their bodies. Their cleavage were in full display."Who sent you guys here?" His voice was calm as he feasted his eyes on their bodies. Sensing his stare on their bodies, the ladies felt satisfied.Being in the presence of Henry alone, to them was a form of satisfaction."His Highness." One of them replied.He nodded and headed upstairs. The ladies hesitated a little, before heading upstairs with him. Their heels clicked on the stairs as they followed his lead towards
SASHAThe hall was crowded. And I wasn't surprised as all these people turned out to be people of the first class, the nobles, important men and women, alphas and their mates. Not even a single commoner was present, somehow I felt for my two friends, willy and kim. They were omegas like me and were the poorest in our pack, when I informed them about my birthday party, they were so excited and promised to come. But I couldn't sense them, nor see them. Ash held my hand softly as we made our way to the stairs to face the crowd. In my flowing red gown and red mask, I was like a little rose in the arms of my lover. Ash , with his face coverd in his hold mask, looked down at me, raised my jaw and kissed me. "Are you ready?" He asked and kissed me again. Feeling special, I nodded. "Ladies and gentlemen, please welcome our host for the night, Lord Ash, the great and mighty alpha of the crescent pack, and by his side, is the lady of the hour, our most precious treasure, the luna of the
Flashback.SASHA"Wow you look hot! Ash will not recognize you anymore. " Jane smiled through the mirror.She was standing behind me, admiring and adoring my new look. I may be beautiful, but today, the woman sitting before me was a different figure. She was dressed in a long tight, golden evening dress that revealed every shape that God had given her and Plus some. It was made of golden linen, the only material covering her full chest was a gold fabric, soft and transparent. Her hair bounced in golden balls, radiating all over her ivory skin. And that woman was no else but me. My name is Rose and today is my eighteenth birthday. As an omega, it was a surprise to everyone at how lucky I was, to be our alphas mate. And today, my alpha promised to make my birthday party a grand one. He said it was going to be the best birthday party I have ever had. He invited all his friends and relatives, and even his powerful wealthy friends all over the country. The noises downstairs, the rock mu
SASHA"I am mated to someone else, what are you talking about?" I asked, looking deep into his burning eyes. Raising his hand, he removed my mask and touched my face. "I have wondered what it would feel like to touch you. And now, I can't believe I have found you. Let me have you Rose, let me take you to a world you've never known. " His voice was deep and velvet. My heart sank at every sound, making me weak on the limb and even in the body. He gathered me in his arms and buried his face on my hair. Unzipping my dress, he stroked the line on my back sending sweet sensation and heat all over my body. My skin sparked at his touch."You have to stop this, am not your mate. You are mistaken!" I protested. He withdrew, cupped my face in his large hands and looked deep into my eyes."I am alpha. I don't make mistakes in finding my mate. ""But I have a mate, I don't belong to you." The alpha didn't say a word, instead he tried to pull down my dress. I shivered frantically, tryi
GAULINAVIAELISEI tossed and turned on the bed restlessly. I was having those nightmares again. Everywhere was bright.Patches of grey and pink floated across the afternoon sky, and birds chirped happily in the trees nearby. The smell of green grass and rotting leaves filled my nostrils as a small gust of wind tossed the hems of the turquoise dress that adorned my body."Will be back soon, mother." I called out to my mother, and without waiting for her usual ambiguous reply, I stepped out of our home.I stretched my lithe body, my gaze landing on the mountains which surrounded our pack, and a smile spread across my face. Our pack was sure beautiful.I took calm strides, towards the woods. My wolf leapt yet again, and I rolled my eyes. I had suddenly felt the strong urge to shift, and knowing my wolf fully well, I wasn't getting any moment breather, if I didn't grant her wish.The woods was silent, as I walked deeper into it. I avoided the thorny shrubs, clasping my hands behind my b
GaulinaviaEliseI turned, and took a brief look at Lazarus once again."My father would be arriving today." He'd said earlier on, and that had made my heart thump faster than it had done for a while now.How the hell was I supposed to face his father?And without getting to ask another question, he left.I stared around my room, suddenly admiring its beauty.The chairs were made of the finest wood, and their carvings were immaculate. The walls were white, with shamrocks hanging from their edges and gold railings placed at the top of each window which were adorned with light blue curtains that had gold beads sewn in the shape of roses. Coupled with the sweet scent of vanilla and muffins that filled the air, I felt like I was in heaven.I racked my brain for what could have possibly led me to Lazarus's room. The last thing I remembered was the nightmares which I had, the previous night.I felt a tiny bruise on my neck, and my hand subconsciously flew to the area. I winced at the pain, b
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
