~YULIA
I dragged myself out of bed.
"Ah, my head. . ." I cried as I massaged my temples. It was banging from all the alcohol that I had taken.
Last night had been crazy. Everything about it was wrong and I was still trying to wrap my head around it. From the mysterious man to the crimson eyes in the dark, to the men who chased me and Mr Rogers who appeared with a gun shooting them.
Nothing made sense to me anymore. I entered the shower and allowed the water to wash away all of my doubts.
As if that was possible.
I eventually stepped out of the bathroom, cleaned myself dry before throwing on some clean clothes. I chose a big t-shirt and a pair of shorts. I did not even bother to dry my dark hair before hurrying out of my room for breakfast.
I heard voices even before I got to the kitchen. One of them belonged to Mr Rogers while the other belonged to Madelaine, our house keeper.
I entered the kitchen and dragged a seat whip glaring daggers at Mr Rogers. I had dozens of questions for him but I chose to wait until Madelaine was out of the kitchen.
"Morning, sweet child. I made you your favorite," she announced and placed a plate of pancakes and honey drippings.
I watched as the petite woman dressed in black went to the fridge and brought out an apple juice for me.
"Thank you," I whispered and she nodded before hurrying out of the space.
When it was just Rogers and I, I decided to face him.
"How do you have guns?" I began as my wolf came to a stop, waiting attentively to hear his response.
He smiled. "You should be grateful I have them, or you would have been taken."
I narrowed my eyes at him. This man had killed two people last night. Even if they were criminals, he looked unfazed by it, like he had done it before.
When he saw that I was still stiff, he decided to keep talking. "My father was once a Beta of this pack. So, he thought me how to use guns for protection and I am a licensed owner."
I corked my brows at him. This made more sense though. Yet I was still terrified by the fact that he was an easy killer.
"After what happened last night, I'm sure you understand why you need to be more careful and why it's important you have a powerful guardian," he said.
I frowned at him. "What are you talking about? What guardian?"
"According to Mariana, may her blessed soul rest in peace— she stated in her Will that before you can inherit any of her wealth, you need to move in with her step brother," he dropped the bomb.
I shot to my feet instantly. "What!"
My heart started hammering heavily and I gritted my teeth. This was outrageous! This was beyond my tolerance!
"I don't need a guardian! I can protect myself! I am eighteen! I am not twelve!" I roared.
Rogers watched me patiently, waiting for my outburst to end. My wolf danced with anger at the entire situation.
"We all know you are eighteen, Yulia. You've never failed to remind us about it everytime you get the chance to," he said calmly.
I gritted my teeth as I folded my arms at him. "So why do you still treat me like a child?" I complained in a smaller voice.
He shook his head at me. "It's not about being treated like a child. It's about your safety. All we want is for you to be safe, away from the people searching for you," he announced.
"Who are they? Why do they want me?" I demanded stubbornly.
"I do not have the answer to that question," he stated.
"Then I'm not moving in with any brother of hers. There's no way I'm going to live with someone who's never come visiting my entire life," I stated, grabbed my phone and stormed out of the kitchen.
The door bell rung and I already knew who it was from her scent. I pulled the door open and smiled.
"Girl, where did you disappear to yesterday? I was searching all over," she complained.
She had been my friend for as long as I could remember. I instantly pulled her into a hug before dragging her with me out of the house, the way she had come.
"You won't believe what happened to me yesterday, Lana," I began to tell her.
She lifted her messy brows at me. "You won't believe who I saw either!" She exclaimed.
I frowned at her. "Who did you see?"
"Girl, I saw one fine ass hot man stop by the funeral yesterday, right after you disappeared!" She exclaimed.
I gapped at her. Was she really talking about boys now when I had something more important to talk about?
"Lana. . ." I complained as my wolf twisted with irritation.
"Hold up, I'm almost done. I have to tell you how hot he looked. I know we in mourning but that man was fine. If you saw him, you'll be drooling all over for him, believe me!" She stated. "But he too disappeared after speaking with your lawyer."
I narrowed my eyes at her. "Will you listen to what I have to say now?" I raised my voice.
"Goddess, yes, I will. Have some patience, I'm all ears," she answered.
I shook my head at her before beginning to narrate my tale. "I went to get drunk at Club Purple when a handsome stranger stopped by. . ."
My wolf stirred at the mere thought of him even when I tried to scold it to stop reacting to anything that had to do with the stranger.
"Yulia, hold up first. Look over there," she pointed at the main entrance.
There was a man walking through in all his glory.
"That's him! That's the fine ass man I was talking about!" She exclaimed as excitement consumed her.
I frowned and narrowed my eyes at the stranger. The moment he got closer, I gasped.
Because I recognized those beautiful forest green eyes.
~YULIAMy wolf came alive as I took in every aspect of his features. It was the same dark clothes. The same dark hair. The same dangerous and mysterious aura from last night. Worst, his green eyes seemed to bore into my soul as he approached us. My wolf began to dance with excitement as I remembered my escapades with him. The way his fingers assaulted my softness. The way his lips almost transported me to another realm. What was this man doing here? How did he know that this was were I lived?Was he a stalk— I gasped. "I knew you would be shocked by his existence but isn't this reaction too much?" Lana asked."Girl! He's the same guy I met at the club yesterday. He followed me!" I exclaimed in disbelief. That was when the beautiful stranger reached us and smiled. "I didn't expect to meet you here," he whispered and his voice affected my wolf.But today, I refused to fall under his spell. He could not make me do anything stupid with that charming face of his. "Yeah right, you exp
~ISSA"This is Lycan Issa, Mariana's stepbrother— your uncle. . ."My heart sank to the deepest part of my core as I realised who this beautiful yet rebellious woman was. I felt my beast begin to stir with protest. I had not seen this coming. I had not expected the events to turn on me this way. How could she be the same child I was supposed to look after? I was expecting to see a little child, not a full-grown woman! I blinked multiple times as I stared at Yulia. Her stormy gray eyes contorted and she looked away immediately, running into her friend's arms, perhaps hoping that the poor girl could help her disappear. I thought of last night and my wolf jumped. How could the woman I had kissed so passionately be my niece?What sort of a sick game was this? Memories of the way I touched her danced in my mind. Memories of all the obscene things I had imagined I would do to her when I finally found her replayed in my head. These things were not even healthy. Yet, she turned out to
~YULIA"What are my choices?" I hated it. I hated this moment. I hated the world. I hated fated for playing this sick game on me. My wold danced restlessly in mind and it was taking a lot from me just sitting here in the same room with him and pretended everything was fine. In reality, I wanted to scream. I wanted to roar. I wanted to cry, but I could not do any of those things. I could only hold myself together until this meeting was over and hope that I come out triumphant. Issa turned his green eyes to him. "You can either agree to come with me and I'll give you all the protection you need, pending the time it will take until I find all the people after you. . ." He trailed. "Then you can come back home." I sat up instantly as I shot him wide eyes. "How long is it going to take until you find them?" My heart began to race as I waited for an answer. This arrangement was not so bad. If it was something that would take just one or two months, then I could swallow my pride and ac
~ISSA"How do you intend on living in the same house with the girl you almost banged at the club last night?" He askedI shot him a stare. He had chosen a white shirt and blue jeans today. He had always liked things that made him look younger. He was my best friend— the only person I trusted in the world as well as my Beta. Perhaps, this was the reason why he had the guts to ask me this question. "I'll ignore her and move my attention to someone or something else, Miles." I assured myself it was possible even if my wolf stirred in protest. The sun was beginning to set and it was a beautiful sight. We were leaning against my car as we waited for my supposed niece to make her decision. "You and I both know that once you become obsessed with a woman, you won't get over her until you bury your damned cork into her." There was so much confidence in his voice that it got on my nerves. How could he be so sure that living with her would be pure torture for me?"She's my fucking niece for
~YULIAA loud crash exploded in my left ear and I screamed."Yulia!" I heard Issa yell.I looked up to see that I was fine. There was no blood and I was still whole. My body was still intact.So what had hit the window?"What was that?" I heard the Beta ask."Whatever you do, keep the window panes up, Miles." Issa was now glaring out the window as he tried to figure out what had happened.Suddenly, another thing crashed against my window, this time, on my right. I yelped and ducked my head while shooting my hands over my ears on impulse. "Shit! We're under attack! We're been ambushed!" The Beta exclaimed. "Ambushed?" I exclaimed as I braved looking up. That was when I saw the cars chasing after us from behind. My hand came to my mouth as I registered all the men poking their heads out, carrying cannon-like-guns on their hands, ready to shoot out whatever they had shot twice now. "Holy goddess! Holy goddess! We're doomed! There's too many of them. Unless you're the best and fastest
~YULIA"Who exactly are you?" My voice came out shakier than I had expected. My wolf began to come back to the surface after abandoning me to my fate earlier. There was no response from either of them. They just ignored me as if I had not breathed a word. Miles was helping him clean off the blood from his hands, but the ones on his clothes were there to stay. "You played with the weather. You summoned fogs and you moved at inhumane speed. How is that a wolf's ability?" I dared to ask. They refused to say a word to me. Miles brought the car to life and zoomed off. I spied on Issa from the mirror. He looked distant. He looked as if it was only his shell that was left behind. I wanted to ask more questions but since they were both playing mute, I decided to keep it for when we would arrive at his house. After all, they could not remain mute forever. I folded my arms as I sank deeper into my chair. The silence was awkward and I wanted to stretch badly as well as call Layla but I di
~YULIA“Iran…” I trailed, realizing I was face to face with Issa’s beast.The air suddenly turned cold and my intake of breath became shaky as I instantly began to tremble. His aura was alluring yet dreadful. I wanted to run— to move as fast as my feet could take me but I was rooted on the spot and I soon realized that I could not feel my feet. My wolf danced with excitement though, almost as if she was not affected by my fear and was more interested in what she would gain from this bond. I felt blood rush through me as she made me take in every detail of his body. From his glowing eyes to his seductive features, my wolf wanted him. Yet I wanted to fight the feelings that were boiling up within me. My thoughts were a scattered mess. I felt as if I was torn between two worlds— one where I wanted him and one where I could not stand him. “Yulia,” he whispered, his voice calm yet filled with authority, making my wolf do a sudden flip.I tried to speak, but my tongue felt twisted. The
~YULIAThe sun broke through the window blinds, filling the room with golden rays as I opened my eyes slowly— not fully awake. My head was hammering, a slight headache, living rent-free in it.The bed seemed strange, it felt like a thousand year old brick wrapped around with pieces of bug eaten foams joined together with glue.I moved my hands about it trying to locate my phone which I always kept under my pillow when it suddenly struck me, this wasn’t my bed."Where the fuck am I?"My eyes flew open and jumped off it, my heart thumping hard in my chest. Only when my feet touched the floor did I realize that everything in the room was different.Memories of yesterday's events came rushing back. From the moment I realized that the sexy man I almost made out with in the club was my uncle to the journey home with him, getting attacked by those weird men and my encounter with Iran.It filled me with dread."Fuck, it was no dream. It was all real. . ." I sighed heavily when I felt a sudde
~ISSAI knew I was never going to get enough of Yulia as we both left the house.She did not dress like a typical teenage girl— a short skirt, make up and painted nails with heels like every other teenager would have opted for.But no. She dressed like she was going to pick a fight. Black leather jeans that hugged her perfect legs with knee length leather boots. She had on a black V neck t shirt with a black leather jacket that I knew belonged to my sister. I could still smell Marianna's scent on that jacket.It made me feel a little guilty because of what Yulia and I had just done in the living room and several times in the bathroom.I was supposed to be protecting and guarding her like a father but here I was picturing her soft apple shaped ass in my head. I was fighting the ultimate urge to pull her back upstairs, tear off her clothes and bend her over while I rammed my cock into her until I lost my mind and passed out from pleasure."Wow, we are going on that?" She asked excitedl
~YULIAIt was nightfall when I opened my eyes.I was sprawled on top of Issa whose eyes were also open. He had a calm look in his eye as he gazed at me."How long have you been watching me?" I asked as I suppressed a yawn."Since you fell asleep," He answered. "I was afraid to move lest I wake you up. I enjoyed watching you sleep."A smile played on my lips. "That's... creepy.""I am creepy," He said as a smile tugged at his lips.His lips were enticing to look at and I knew that I could not help myself. I brushed my lips against his and sucked on them. I felt his cock stiffen in my pussy.
~YULIAI seductively took the beast with me.I could barely wait to get to the living room as I held on to Issa's cock, leading him towards the couch. By the time we got there, my slit was aching with need as I pushed him roughly on the leather sofa.I hungrily eyed his throbbing cock as he lay splayed on the chair. I spread his legs and knelt down between his thighs. I was salivating and licked my lips as I hungrily stared at his hardness.Even Yara had gone quiet from the intensity of the moment. she had chosen to enjoy everything quietly.His cock was huge and wide and it got me excited with need. I held it in my hands and pumped it up and down. A soft moan escaped his lips and I smiled at the fact that he was reacting to my touch.
~YULIA.This was wrong. Everything about it screamed abomination but by the goddess it felt so good!To the outside world, he was meant to be my uncle– my family– my blood. But to me, he was something so much more. He was my secret sin. My secret lust. He was a beast– my beast to tame.It had been a gamble but I had taken it anyway. In fact, I had no idea if it was going to work but ever since I read the obscure words from the mysterious book Dean Davina showed me, I was seeing things in a whole new light.My visions had changed. I could see things in darkness...and light.As I sat on the work table in his garage, I could see the dark side of Issa Frostwood. Crawling towards me with a need that scared me in his eyes. I could also see Iran beneath his eyes, watching as he slowly stalked towards me on all fours.They were both conscious, Issa and Iran. Two powerful beings in one body. This act among us had gone beyond just mere sex. I was aware of how deadly and dangerous Iran was. I w
~ISSA/IRAN.I had missed how she felt– Her scent– even the smell of her hair drove me wild. I could not lie to myself any longer, I wanted her so very badly. I sniffed her neck deeply. I understood what she meant when she said that I was not making things easy for her. I knew that I was a difficult Lycan and my wolf of a beast was the most unstable creature that ever existed. Iran and I were always at loggerhead because despite the fact that we were one, we never got along.But one thing that we could both agree on was that we wanted our cock in Yulia's warm folds. Iran and I ached with need as Yulia crumbled into us. We could feel her wolf Yara stir with a lustful frenzy as I began to drop soft kisses on her earlobes."Hmmm," She moaned for us. 'Let us share!' Iran growled in my head. I accepted. I had come to realize that if we fought for control over my body, it would ruin the mood and scare Yulia away. A terrified Yulia would not get us what we wanted.Yulia was still in her un
~YULIA.I gasped in shock as I saw Pete writhing on the ground holding his broken arm. It had happened so fast that I had barely blinked."Are you insane!" I screeched in alarm at what Issa had done. I whipped my head to look at him with anger and disbelief. But when our eyes met, his eyes were a crimson shadow but the colors kept switching back to Issa’s forest green ones. And that was when I knew that Iran had taken control for that moment.Leia was not aware of the violence as a smirk was plastered on her face. She was enjoying herself way too much. This could not be happening. Issa grabbed me by my wrist and pulled me with him. I reluctantly followed him until we got to the parking lot where his car waited. I jerked my hand off his hold and glared at him. I was worried about Pete because his arm was really in a horrible state."What the hell was that about?!" I demanded angrily. "I warned him!" Issa snapped back at me. "He had it coming. Nobody threatens you or puts their hand
~YULIA.I felt a tingle on my skin as soon as I entered the ancient library of the academy.It was unusually cold and every breath that I took, I could see the mist. One thing that was very peculiar to me was that there was no librarian to ask for directions.As if the library could read my thoughts, I found myself in an aisle of books on the topic of light. I saw many books that piqued my interest.I saw books on werewolves, I saw books on witches and I saw books on humans. I was about to turn to the next aisle when a book dropped with a loud thud at my feet.'Of Light.' It read and I bent down to pick it up. It was an old book with a broken leather cover and the author was unknown.
~YULIA."You must learn to balance out your human form and wolf form," said the Lecturer as she walked slowly on the podium looking at us. "If you stay too long in your wolf form, it's difficult to transform into your human form and you might be stuck in that wolf form forever."I was in the Lycanthropy and Shape shifting Studies class and the lecturer taking us was a werewolf in her late thirties. She wore a simple white long sleeved shirt with a black knee length skirt and red bottom heels. Her long black hair was tied in a long ponytail.I was trying to concentrate on what the lecturer was saying but my mind was on something else. It was back at the cafe in town where those men burst into flames.I realised that for some reason, I did not think much about that incident. Ma
~ISSA."I have moved on, Issa, I swear," Yulia said and I believed her. But it did nothing to help the rage that filled my chest."Apparently, Pete has a hard a time believing that," I replied into the phone in a hard angry voice. "I am going to kill him.""Come on Issa, that is too drastic, even for you," Yulia replied.I was in a board meeting with Iris and a few company executives when Leia sent me a video. I had initially ignored it but something just kept bugging me to check it. It was probably due to the fact that Leia was a mischievous teenage werewolf and she was Yulia's age.So I suspected that what she had sent had something to do with my secret Mate. I had seethed with pure unadulterated rage as I watched Pete roughly grab Yulia by the arm.What pissed me off the most was seeing Jamal stepping in and coming to her rescue. That should have been me! Pete or whatever the fuck his name is– was going to pay... with his damn life.'I can not wait to rip out his heart and watch it
