While I was asleep in his house? When was that, over two weeks ago? Was he already thinking about buying me this ring then? That long? My lips formed a thin line. I lowered down my gaze, avoiding his eyes. The pleased feeling was then overhwelmed by something else. What was this, I feel swayed.No.Perhaps even more greater. I breathed hard, and then I stood up. “Well… I haven’t thought of a gift, but I would surely think of one to give you before our marriage…” Feeling happy over this, and not giving him something in return afterwards would not sit right to the other wolves in this pack. If we truly wanted to convince them, then our love for each other, fakedly, should not be one sided. I should also shower him with what I could afford. But what, when the only thing I could give right now was not material thing but love, trust and loyalty? I mean, of course, I meant that fakedly. Because those were something I could only wholeheartedly present to Conrad. But if we were to talk in an
We had our last dinner at the Alpha’s house before Adler sent me back to mine. He assured me I wouldn’t need to stay at his house since the Alpha would be busy this week since he was leaving the post. It was a good news, cause then I would have the time to meet Conrad before I completely get tied to Adler. “I’m going to meet him.” I told Jade, as soon as I finished putting my clothes back to my closet. “I promised him I would.” “Conrad?” She asked, and then raise a brow. She knew. I told her before I asked her to help me with my excuse. All of it. My reckless decision to come after him and help him escape, what we talked about, how he told me he accepted it. I didn’t leave a single tiny detail. I figured she should know the truth, so the next time I disappear and I’d be out of reach, she’d knew where I was and why I was out in the wild again. “Yeah…” I sat comfortably in the bed, and then turned to her. “I’ll leave tonight.” “You sure you could pull it all alone?” She put down th
If there was anyone who would have the authority to make these betas move out of their post, it would be no other than Adler, their future Alpha. Having that into consideration, I called Adler. I told him the situation as soon as he picked it up, and he cooperated without complain, which I did not expect because when it came down to meeting Conrad, he would always say something negative. But of course, that became the least of my concern. I asked Adler to call the betas and make them leave. I didn’t care what story he put up, or what method he’d came up with. I only wanted to make sure they would leave, and I wouldn’t be seen or caught. That was exactly what happened. Adler pulled a stunt, and the betas ran without a second thought, probably eager to make an impression to Adler. I took that opportunity to leave. I escaped. I crossed the border, once again, but with the help of Gunner, Jade, and Adler this time. Though I’ll also come back tomorrow, and that would mean I would need to
Lycans were dangerous. That fact was instilled in me the moment I learned what we truly were. I was probably five when I did. My initial reaction to that idea was fear, and anger. For someone who belonged to a group that hated Lycans, it wouldn’t be so suprising for a kid like me to feel the same. Afterall, when one was naive and dependent to the group of individuals’ ideals, one started adapting what the others think and believe in. I did believe they were bad and heartless until I met Conrad. Though, I cannot generalize. I could trust Conrad. Him, and his genuine love and care for me. Certainly, even if I were to come with him in their land, I would be safe. No one could tell me otherwise after he crossed the border just to see me. “Why?” he asked, and then moved to face me more freely. “Would you have the time to do so?” “Not now…” I looked away to get a piece of burger. “But I could make time next week. How long would it take if we go there using a transportation?” I wasn’t g
I became more attentive, focused on our conversation then. After that short talk with Alice, I became alert. Although I could’ve just ask him right away to stop myself from struggling trying to fight myself into thinking they weren’t the same Lycan, my fear got the best of me. What’s more was that I haven’t told him about it. I wasn’t ready. It might sound as if I was contradicting myself since it was me who wanted the truth, but not to him. I didn’t want to think we were connected aside from the fact that we were fated mates. It would hurt me. The whole night, I asked him questions I tried so hard to instilled in me. Alice words aside, I genuinely wanted to know him and his background better, and I suceeded. It was probably already morning when we finished and slept, so it didn’t surprise me that we woke up at the afternoon. It was Angelo who woke us up, said he came over because Conrad asked him to. He brought pasta, and pizza so it was what we got for lunch. All for the three of
“This was such an extreme turn of event..” said the lady wearing a white dress with pearl earrings. Her brows were finely drew. Her lipsticks were mixed, and I could tell how well she had combined them in. Her lip line was on point, too. With her appearance, I’d say she was on the same age as the Luna. “Who would have thought that a wolfless girl like you would be chosen as the Alpha’s mate?” She was definitely one of those whom the Alpha admired. She looked elegant. The way she moved, and physically present herself was a proof of it. She was no ordinary wolf. She was an important one, perhaps, one that the Alpha were likely to be friends with. I put up a fake smile, and then slightly tilted my head. “Right? Even I didn’t thought I would be the future Luna of the pack…” I didn’t like her words, appearance wise. Although I had expected this since they were raised as someone who had the power to say whatever they would like, it still irked me. Nobles truly were ignorant of the word re
Adler fastened his speed. My eyes went sharper then. I threw him a glare, but he looked like he didn’t care. My hands automatically held on to my seatbelt for support. He didn’t say anything then, but I’d bet my whole life we’d be fighting loud right now if he did. I was goddamn pissed. His answers didn’t sit right with me. I just couldn’t bear this side of him. This protective Adler. This demanding Adler. This I can never understand Adler. He always act like he owned everything. Like he owned me. “Slow down…” I finally say through gritted teeth. “You’re overspeeding.” “You’re afraid of this speed but not with stepping unto the Lycans’ territory?” He asked, a little furious. “You’re always full of irony.” “Why the hell are you so against it?” I turned to him, my hands still tightly holding on to the seatbelt. “You saw how Conrad didn’t mind crossing the border for me! Conrad would die for me, Adler! He would protect me!” “Yeah? And what if his uncle really turned out to be your fa
The idea was insane, my safety aside. I could tell at least a dozen reasons why I shouldn’t bring Adler, but then it wouldn’t matter because the three of them already joined forces. Right now, it wasn’t even about my decision. It was go with him, or not go at all. ‘It is for the best, Avalynn.’ Alice comforted me. ‘Your safety is what’s at stake here.’ I knew. But I trust Conrad. Though I consider the possibility of that possibility happening, it was overwhelmed by my faith for Conrad. I trusted him that much. I just couldn’t see him the way they were trying to see him now. Because I felt it. Alice did too. “Fine…” I breathed hard. “But you’ll have to obey me all through out—” “I refuse to.” Adler cut me off. “I’ll do things my way if the situation calls for it.” “Fine! But you’ll have to talk it out with me.” I frustratedly gave in. “Plus, you’ll have to avoid fighting Conrad. If it’s even possible, don’t talk to him.” “Fine with me,” said Adler. “So how it’s going to be?” Jade
After Adler learned about my pregnancy, he couldn’t stop worrying about my condition. I was thankful that he did those great things for me, but sometimes, I couldn’t stop to feel irritated whenever he was with me. He changed a lot, but I still know how to protect myself, especially in my condition.He was proud, especially when he announced he would be a father. He didn’t even mind if some werewolves were teasing him about his actions toward me. I understood that they were still shocked that he was my husband, my mate, because of what they knew about how he treated me.“Hey! Where are you planning to go?” My eyes rolled when I heard his voice again. I woke up and decided to go to the bathroom, but he caught me walking. Adler always overreacted! I didn’t like it anymore.He was too afraid that we might lose our baby, especially since he found out that he needed to take care of me with gentleness because of my condition. Gunner didn’t stop making fun of him.“I want to go to the bathroo
Adler didn't know how to react, especially when I pushed him onto our bed. He gasped but didn't even try to struggle with me. He licked his lips, and he didn't remove his eyes from me.“Hmmm..” I hummed when I stroked his dick once again. I tightened my grip on it and slowly moved my hands. “Shit! It's so hot,” He moaned, arched his head, and groaned. I lowered my head and stuck out my tongue to lick the tip of his length.He was shocked when he felt my tongue licked every inch of him. I stared at the tip of his cock, and I saw his precum. I licked it, making him grunt violently.“Shit. Avalynn, where did you learn this thing? Damn it. Don't you dare do this to another man!” I didn't dispute because I focused on what I was doing for him. Jade was right. It was enjoyable that I saw how my mate rated whenever I was licking the tip of his cock.I gulped because I was nervous, especially when I tried to suck his length. I couldn't entirely suck it because his size was too massive. I cl
I was dumbfounded and felt irritated when Adler didn't even think twice about leaving me. Shit. I was embarrassed because he knew that I was too horny. He could smell my scent.“Adler!” I called his name, but he didn't even say anything while he was inside the bathroom. I gritted my teeth in so much frustration. I didn't like what he did, and I would make sure that he would regret leaving me while I was too turned on because of him.‘It looks like you taste your own medicine. It's fine, Avalynn, but I didn't like that Adler chose not to continue what he is planning for you.' Alice spoke to me when I decided to leave our room.I groaned when I already understood what she meant. Damn, she was a dirty wolf. How could she even think something dirty? However, what made me agitated was I liked what she thought. ‘Shut it, Alice. You're not helping me. I want to push him to his limits.’‘Aren't you scared that he might punish you? Oh, I'm sorry, I forgot that you're too excited to get his t
“Welcome, Alpha Brandon,” I stared at the beautiful stunning Alpha; his cold eyes bore into us. I didn't even know that Adler had a friend like him. Alpha Brandon didn't talk with us, but he only nodded. Oh, he wasn't approachable, too. He began talking with Adler, and it seemed serious.“Okay, we will continue the training contest in our packs. My members are so excited to know about it.” Brandon stated, making Adler nod. It had been a year, and Adler was pushing to have a deal with another pack. He had been creating some allies to be the powerful Alpha. Brandon seemed stronger, too. I could do it because of his massive muscles, and I couldn't stop staring at his face. Damn.I noticed Adler glared at me. He coughed, and irritation was too evident on his face. “Oh, I forgot to introduce you, Avalynn, my wife,” Adler said, “Baby, come here.”I strolled slowly in their direction and bowed when my eyes met Brandon's sight. His eyes made me seem shallow; it looked like he wanted to ent
Avalynn's POV "There'd be no escape for you, Theodore," I told him with a smile curving in my lips. We have sealed all the exits. Every part, and every direction of this forest have wolves waiting for them. They were also surrounded, and outnumbered. This was exatly what they did to my mother back when I was still young. They beat her to a pulp knowing she was weak. They killed her in the worst way possible. I wouldn't give mercy now. I wouldn't show a heart to someone who doesn't have it. A tooth for a tooth, Theodore. I gave them my signal. In one swift move, Theodore, and the others were was attacked by the wolves in this land. The other howled as they inflicted pain on their bodies, while the other growled in hunger for their blood. I stood in front of them and let them weakened their body. Though they regenerate fast, they wouldn't keep up if they attain a lot of damages. They could try though. I didn’t turn to my human form and watched my friends, and the elders on this pa
(Third Person's POV) The tradition their pack usually does was interrupted with the anticipated arrival of Theodore and Conrad, blocking Avalynn and Adler's way, the two remained on guard and alert. They have prepared for this, and they knew these two weren't alone. Theodore will never dare to show up in their territory with only Conrad. Theodore wasn't that dumb. But he was sure impulsive. Avalynn scanned the area. Within her circle, she sensed the presence of Lycans coming their way. She didn't sense it earlier so they didn't have that much to prepare, but Avalynn and Adler managed to jumped on time. As soon as the Lycans arrived, surrounding the two of them, it didn't surprise them anymore. They immediately cornered them. Avalynn and Adler had no choice but to get close to each other and watch out. "This is our chance," Theodore said. Theodore and Conrad began to walk towards them. Avalynn was looking at Conrad intently, and Conrad was the same. Theodore had evil smile on his
Avalynn's POV Everyone's eyes were glued to us. They were too focused as if they were all waiting for us to do something wrong. All of them were wearing their keen eyes, witnessing the inauguration on this day. I was standing firm, becoming the Luna with Adler, the new Alpha. Am I nervous? Maybe or maybe not. What should a new Luna feel when she was being crowned and proclaimed in front of everyone? I wanted to look in their eyes one by one only if they were not this many. "What's on your mind?" Adler asked beside me. "A lot," I simply replied. I can see him smirking from my peripheral vision, but he remained calm in front of everyone. "You must be excited," he said. His expression was straight. But I couldn't help but remember the last thing we talked about as I looked at it. It distracts me remembering how he asked me back if I would stay if he say he liked me back. "I am." Both because of what would happened tonight, and because I finally would have the power and and autho
Conrad's POVDays passed, and I lost count on it. When Theodore told me that my mate bond with Avalynn ended because she chose to marry Adler, I lost it all too. The pain, the love, and even the guiltiness that was bothering me before faded and vanished later on. I feel fine after that. But maybe, I will not deny something that until now remains and I still feel. Disappointment.I know I have made a huge mistake, betraying Avalynn. But I never once thought that she would actually choose to marry Adler and even now ended up with him. Right now, the most dominant thing about it is that it's all over now. The guilt and my feelings towards her no longer exist. It's all gone. But why do I feel like something inside me is firing up? Like what Theodore said just added fuel to my chest?"Okay, so you felt that your mate bond disconnected and then you went to ask Theodore and he told you that it ended because Avalynn chose to marry Adler, is that it?" This woman who dared to talk to me that
Conrad's POV (This is Conrad's POV afte Avalynn and Adler was saved.)The guilt is eating me up. Since that incident happened and separated me from Avalynn, I always catch myself not being myself. It feels like my mind is flying while my entire body feels like it is buried in the sand. After that day, I decided to stay in the lycan's territory as Avalynn was also rescued by Jade and her circle. Adler was also saved by them.Of course, they would save him. He's the future Alpha after all. They will be all dead meat if they fail to rescue him there. Every second, every minute, and every day, all I was thinking was Avalynn.Is she fine now? What does she feel about me after that day? Is she angry?Those are the questions that keep running in my head rent-free. I may look like a fool when I already know the answers from those. Of course, Avalynn is probably not fine yet. She definitely hates him—despising him each day. Is she angry? Maybe more than angry that she's been wanting to hurt me
