Chapter 37Alessia's pov A soft tingling sensation feathered my naked skin, teasing my libido with every wet smooch. I soon realised what it was about when a familiar wet sensation trapped my left nipple. I was forced out of my sleep to respond to the sextual drill, driving my fingers into his bushy hairs while I bit back a moan. I allowed him easy access to my core, parting my thighs wide as his fingers sorted my entrance. He got down to give me the best finger fuck I'd ever gotten in my life. “Fuck, Cyri!’’ I pitched, gasping for breath as I felt my orgasm building up already. How could I not give in? My body was still yet to recover from the mind blowing thrusts he administered to me last night. I loved every night I spent with Thompson but last night topped them all. I watered his hand with my cum in a few seconds, but he wasn't done with me yet and I was totally overjoyed. He came between my legs, supporting my thighs that had become unstable from his mellifluous torment
Chapter 38Lycan Cyril Her scents crossed my nostrils, announcing her presence without objective effort. I managed to maintain my cool, keeping my gaze on the table. A bit out of discomfort, and in a bid to avoid stirring awkwardness between us. A few minutes earlier, I was at the top floor with Alan after returning from the kingdom square where I had attended a meeting with the elders. While Alan talked about the materials we required to construct the said border barriers reported by the elders to have gotten due for reconstruction, all I thought about was the crazy steamy night I spent with Alessia in the bedroom. I pulsated to see her again tonight, but at the same time, I tried to contain my excitement to avoid cloning myself into a pervert. I wasn't sure what to say to her. Her quietness was expected. I could swear that she wasn't going to throw a word at me first. I knew her well enough to discern that much. I waited until she settled, but then the maids came in to serve ou
Chapter 39Alessia's pov I dialed Thompson on the phone and waited for him to pop in. My heart bled. I wasn't exactly sure why; if it was about how I had just reacted towards Cyril or the same ill feelings from the recent development. “Hey.’’ Thompson finally picked up on the last ring. “Good job, Alessia. I knew you would pull through this.’’I could imagine the smile sitting on his lips as he said those words. It only made my heart wreck the more. “I'm returning back to Silverstone by tomorrow.” I simply said, shutting my emotions out to prevent affecting my voice. “Sure. Are you okay?’’ He asked out of the blues. If I had been in my normal day mood, I'd have been utterly stunned. And maybe a spark of excitement would have lightened up in the pit of my tummy. But it felt bland for the first time. ‘‘I'm good. I'm sorry I missed your calls, I usually don't step out with my phone most times.’’“Really? Where have you been then? I called you all morning until noon.’’ He was puzzl
Chapter 40Alessia's povI breathed deeply, relishing in the nostalgic air of Silverstone pack as the wind hit my face. I couldn't care less about whatever I was returning to deal with. All that mattered to me was finally being free from having to deal with Cyril’s presence. The gates went open upon our arrival, as if the security guards had been waiting for the heat of our car. I was alarmed by the crowd that gathered up in the compound as we swerved in. ‘‘Did something happen?’’ I asked Regal, sat up, stretching my neck to take in a broader view from the windshield. ‘‘What do you mean, Luna.’’ He asked back, totally cool. Like he wasn't seeing the scenario I saw. “Why is everyone gathered like this?’’ By now, they were making way for us as we drove to the main building. “They are here to welcome you home. It's been a while since you left. Besides, the Alpha shared the news of your breakthrough with the pack yesterday.’’ He flashed a genuine smile at me through the rearview mirr
Chapter 41Alessia's povI stiffened. Stunned. Flummoxed. A hug was the least I expected of him. “Th..Thompson…’’ I mumbled out, my hands stiffly by my sides. I heard Annalise scoff in the background, and Thompson withdrew from me to hold my shoulders. He smiled handsomely to my face.‘‘Thank you, Alessia.’’ His gaze felt as if they were going to consume me. I couldn't keep up with them. I shifted my gaze to his shoulder, hoping I hid my discomfort well enough. “It's all thanks to….the Lycan king.’’ I was quick to stop myself from addressing Cyril with his first name. “It's not like I would have forced him into accepting anyway.’’ I chuckled awkwardly. No, actually, everything felt awkward to me right now. “Well it's big thanks to you at least.’’ Eliza tipped in.“I didn't do anything much.’’ I muttered, clearing a dent from Thompson's robe. He still had his gaze intensely on me. I managed to meet his gaze. “Shall we have some food? I'm starving.’’Eliza served the meals this t
Chapter 42Thompson's povHer scents flooded stronger into the room with the door creaking open. I didn't turn yet, waiting to hear the door shut.“Thompson?’’ She called out, frightened and uncertain. Of course it was me. Who else could she expect? I tilted my head back to regard her. Her bed lamps still operated on high alert since she wasn't in bed yet. It provided just enough light to read the expression on her face. She breathed out in relief, shutting the door eventually but without any attempt to step forward. “You scared me.’’ She said, “I did?’’ I chuckled. Probably, since she didn't expect anyone she must have been startled. Plausible. I turned fully to her. “What are you doing?’’‘‘What?’’ She looked around confusedly. ‘‘Why are you standing there?’’ I pointed out. “Oh.’’ She stepped a bit forward. “It's just…I thought you had something to talk about?’’ I keep getting these feelings that she was somewhat strange. Her attitude, her aura, and even her behaviour. She
Chapter 43Alessia's pov I rubbed my eyes drowsily with the tip of my finger, disturbed by the stinging brightness that hit my face. I parted my eyelids to a squint, almost blinded by the sun ray that shone directly into my face from the window. I rolled over immediately, but I crashed into a hard frame. I sat up abruptly, the drowsiness vanishing from my face. I couldn't believe my eyes when I beheld Thompson wrapped in my duvet, sleeping soundly.He didn't leave? This would be the first time he remained by my side until the break of the next day after sex the previous night. Memories came flooding. He had also worshiped my pussy with his tongue last night. I had almost gone crazy getting it from him. It totally reminded me of my steamy moment with Cyril. I shook my head, carefully stepping out of the duvet to avoid waking him. A shy smile crawled onto my lips as I noticed our clothes laying around on the floor helplessly. I picked them up, dressed back in my nightie, and heade
Chapter 44Alessia's povMy ear beeped for about twenty seconds. The stings of his hit biting hard into my pores. “How dare you raise a hand on her? Have you lost your mind?’’ He seethed, his footsteps approaching. I staggered back, unable to see anything since my hair blocked my face. I stumbled over something and tripped, and a yelp flew off my lips as I crashed my back on a speaker. “What did you expect after sleeping with her the whole night? Don't you dare touch me.’’ I heard Annalise fire, followed by her thumping footsteps.Thompson followed after her, yelling after her to calm down and talk to him. **I swiftly wiped the tear that slipped off my eyes, tightening my grip on the steering wheel with my gaze focused on the road. I deserved it, I shouldn't have laid a hand on Annalise. I got the kids from school and of course, I did my best to hide away my grief. At the very least in fact, their presence helped relieve my mind a bit. Displeased by the idea of returning home,
Chapter 65Thompson's pov I watched elder Ralph, Zach, and elder Mayor in nothing but spite and despise. How weak of them. They couldn't even withhold their honour and stand firm in the presence of the lycans. “We can't win against them. It's too dangerous.’’ Elder Zach complaining, wiping his coat. “They are in our land. We can take anything out in our own land.’’ I spat, irritated.“We can't take nothing. The lycans are dangerous. They are currently raiding the whole pack and you speak like that?’’ Ralph rumbled, sounding pissed. “Men are out there fighting back. The fact that neither of you could fight back doesn't make all others a coward!’’ I spewed, my chest flaming madly with rage. “Are you referring to us as cowards right now?’’ He seethed. ‘‘All these isn't necessary right now. Just stop this now before it is too late, alpha.’’ Elder Mayor chirped in. “I agree to that. The Luna, your wife, should be the one responsible for every blames here and not the lycans or the k
Chapter 64Alessia's povMy eyes widened in horror, my palms shielding my agape mouth as I watched the man stiffen. He fell off the horse to the ground, dead. “Get her now!’’ Someone yelled from behind, definitely the gun person. I grabbed the horse ropes immediately, kicking the side of the horse aggressively to propel movements from it. I almost lost my balance in the hot chase, but the knowledge of the haunting men behind kept me moving with passion. I saw it coming, but I just didn't expect it to happen so soon. It was another gunshot and a painful neigh from the horse. He collapsed instantly, causing me to roll off on the dusty ground. Tears brimmed my vision as I found my feets, running relentlessly into the bushes by the side of the road.They were Silverstone men, and they were obviously on to catch me and return me to the dungeon where Thompson might eventually have my head chopped off and placed on a stake in the pack’s square. I ran as fast as my legs could accompany m
Chapter 63CYRIL’S POV “Get him! Don't let him get in!!’’ Thompson screamed amidst his sword clash with Alan. Lance had just taken out the last of his staged men. Now just the elders were left by the entrance, trembling timidly to their feets. I started straight to the door with my gaze planted on the three men, looking out for what moves they'd throw. They scurried aside fearfully once I approached, allowing me unhindered access into the building. Lance followed after me while Alan dealt with Thompson. Not a single soul pranced the living room, nor the passage, nor any corners in sight. “I'll check upstairs. You check the passage.’’ Lance alarmed, retreating for the stairway already. I directed my steps into the passage, straight down to wherever it led. An indistinct sound nearby stole my attention immediately. If I hadn't heard it, I wouldn't have realised the almost invisible door by the side. I slowly turned closer, my heart thrashing with so much anticipation. I turned t
Chapter 62Alessia's pov I retracted from him, ashen by the appalling news. The guards would drag me back to Thompson if they found me here. ‘‘I guess you didnt realise it?’’ The doctor squinted, scanning me intensely.His measly stare made me instantly cautious of my dress. I'd been in the same dress for about four days without a chance to sprinkle even little water on my body. Definitely, I reeked!Taking two steps backwards, I cleared my throat. ‘‘Uhm….’’“I heard she's the cause of the war. Apparently she had an affair with the lycan king and now he wants to take her from the Alpha.’’ A lady muttered into the silence, her words echoing through the walls instead of the woman's ear she leaned into. “Will you be quiet!’’ The woman whom I suggested was the lady mother after a nice look, snapped at her daughter. But her gaze on me was nothing close to remorseful or friendly. ‘‘Get me my son. I can't stay one more minute here.’’ I resolved to say, unable to keep up with the awful g
Chapter 61Alessia's pov An eerie silence roamed the space outside after the hurrying footsteps of guards left. A guard had rushed in moments ago to call the staged guard by the door of the dungeon.It sounded really urgent; the reason he had been called out of duty. But I couldn't make out what the guard reported through the thick door, besides I felt too weak to even lift a hand. Another sharp sting of hunger plunged at the top of my stomach, leaving a squeaking yelp off my lips as I grabbed the spot in a thought squeeze. Even though I guessed it couldn't be about food, I kept praying the guard had left to get me something to eat. I might starve to death if I get nothing to eat tonight. Telling what time of the day it was seemed in fact impossible, since it always remained pitch back in here. This was pure torture. It's now obvious that Thompson wants me dead. What was I thinking, wanting to stay with him despite everything he's done to me? He had shown me countless times how
Chapter 60CYRIL’S POV “He's crazy.’’ Lance remarked, leaving a sigh off Alan's lips.‘‘I'll give him just until two days time to come around.’’ I said calmly.“But why are you so calm about it, this is so not your type thing to do.’’ Lance complained. There must be something I was missing on. Ever since the topic with Thompson, Lance has been unusually annoyed. He swore and cussed under his breath all through the call with Thompson; we had been in a meeting when his call came in. “Do you have a beef with him before now or something?’’ Alan voiced just the exact question on the tip of my tongue. Lance scoffed. “A beef? I'll rather go hiking on the highest mountain in the city.’’“That two days waiting period, you know what it's called?’’ I let a smirk curved up on my lips. Seeing their blank faces, I went on. “Reflecting period. I doubt there's anyone who wouldn't need that. During this time, he gets to decide what plan of action might be best for him.’’ I relaxed back on my cha
Chapter 59Thompson's povI stormed to the balcony for some air, tightening my fists on the railings. I saw Regal's car drive in and he stepped out to meet my gaze.I nodded at him to come on upstairs.“Greetings, Alpha.’’ He walked in.‘‘Is there a problem?’’ I didn't care much about the coldness in my tone, not bothering to spare a glance at him.“The lycans came.’’ He blurted out.I turned immediately to face him, my anger melting away for a moment.“I think they were on a visit, but we didn't allow them entry.’’ He stated reassuringly.Was that supposed to be reassuring news?“You blocked them?’’ I asked, amused and a bit apprehensive.I understood that I asked them to do it, but I realised I wasn't cut out for reality.“We blocked the borders like you instructed and strictly prevented them from coming in. They returned home following the orders of the lycan king.’’“Their king was with then?’’ I asked again in amusement, a strong stroke crossing down my abdomen.‘‘Yes, Alpha. Is
Chapter 58Thompson's povI listened calmly as the line rang, holding my fingers in a fist. I was starting to believe what Annalise claimed now that Emelda was refusing to take my calls.“How dare that bloody old witch!’’ I gritted, bringing the phone to my face after another unsuccessful attempt to get her on the line.A message popped up on the screen, and my heart skipped a beat when I saw Cyril’s name on top. I hated that he managed to steal a skip from my heart.I strolled down to the cellar for a drink, aware of the implications Cyril’s message could likely bring about.Settling down before the table with my index and middle fingers caging the tiny bottom of my wine glass, I tapped on my message box. I read through with a straight face, he demanded a reason for my absence at his anniversary ceremony as well as an intended visit to Silverstone pack this evening.A chuckle fell off my lips.Was he dumb? Couldn't he read the writings on the wall?Without much thought, I dialed his
Chapter 57Alessia's pov Tears blinded my vision, I couldn't recognise the routes he took until he tugged me down the stairs to the basement. I heard him punch some codes on the only door that uses a code down here. The dungeon. “No!’’ I grabbed his hand as he pulled my face up. “No please, don't do this Thompson.’’I couldn't contain the coldness of his face. It forced me into believing he had his mind made up and indeed he did. He flung me into the darkness ignoring my pleads, and slammed the door shut before I even landed on the floor. Dust wafted into my nostrils. Smelly dusts that dug deep coughs from my throat. I staggered to my feets and rushed back to the door. “Let me out.’’ I banged, horribly terrified by the consuming darkness. I couldn't even see my own hands. “Thompson let me out of here, please!!’’ I screamed, my heart thrashing with horror at the scary silence that responded to my voice.Did he leave already? He was really leaving me in here?“Thomp….’’ I trailed
