Chad's POV I didn't stop walking until we were back inside Bella's room. I set her down, and I buried my nose on the crook of her neck, Inhaling her peaches and cream scent, mixed with the vanilla and honey scent of her hair. It calmed me down. That's why mates were so necessary, and in my heart,
Bella's POV I was standing at the center of the stage, face to face with Arona. I looked up at her as she smirked. Her almond shaped green eyes narrowed even more as she looked at me with disdain. She looked regal with her blond ponytail. It was braided and hanging over one of her shoulders. She h
Chad's POV Bella's scent was an aphrodisiac to my senses. I suckled on her sweet neck, wishing I could mark her. The way every unmated male kept staring at her almost made me lose control on live TV. Hell, she looked so ravishing. Even the mated males looked interested in her. Fucking Jasper was t
Bella's POV "Well, well. Luna Bella?" I turned around and found myself face to face with the Alpha King. He oozes power and enigma. His black hair is tussled like he had passed his hands many times through it, or maybe a woman did. His enigmatic blue eyes looked me up and down. "I'm sorry, Alpha King. I got lost. I should go." I said as I started to walk away. He grabbed me by the arm firmly, and I had no choice but to stay in place. I stared down at the hand that was still holding me. "I suggest you unhand me, King Hudson. My mate is very possessive." He chuckled and let go of me. "With a woman like you, I think I would be as possessive as well." His eyes wandered down my face and body. I knew this look of uninvited interest that often times I caught on men when they looked at me. I sidestep him and continued to walk towards the garden. "I wanted to let you know that I accept. I accept to let the prisoners go as you requested once the competition is over." I stopped. Would h
Chad's POV Bella's chest rose and fell, and a cute squeak came out of her throat. The view was formidable from up here. The exquisite dress hugged all her curves in all the right places. "You wouldn't dare?" She said, feigning indignation. I pulled her close to me and whispered in her ear. "Swe
Bella's POV Chad's eyes darkened, matching the same desired that clouded mine. He made me feel daring and wanted. I put my hands on his bulging biceps, relishing in their hardness. "That sounds decadently hot, sweetheart. But some mere silk ties will not be able to restrain me, I will need to be c
Bella's POV Sadie wanted to speak, but no words were coming out of her mouth. She looked like a fish out of the water. Arona scrunched her nose and moved slightly away from Sadie. I don't even know how she managed to get an invitation. Jasper hasn't claimed her yet, I see no mark on her neck. But
Chad When I heard the piano keys, I was on one of the top floor balconies of the Palace. I had been keeping an eye on that Lunas' reunion. I didn't like that Bella was surrounded by strangers and so close to Arona and Jasper's mistress. I was proud to see that she was able to hold her own and was
Bella's POV I dig my nails into Chad's back as he pounds inside me. Out tongues tangle in a fervent kiss that sends jolts of pleasure directly to my loins. His deep and fast thrusts have me moaning silently as each moan was muffled by Chad's burning kisses. Only the wet noises of skin to skin con
Chad's POV As I look at Bella sleeping peacefully in the hospital bed, all the recent events replay in my mind. Hudson has grown bolder. He almost killed one of my most trusted men, and now he has attempted to kidnap Bella. I brush a strand of hair off of her face, making her pout in her sleep. Fu
Chad's POV Dane and I got to the hospital in record time. The first person we saw was Dr. Grace, Fort's mate. She lunged herself into my arms. Luckily, we had werewolf Drs here at the hospital for situations like this. I pat the shaken woman on her back. Dane passed her a handkerchief, and she cl
Hendrick's POV I left the place before I ended up punching Chad. His possessive and arrogant display of ownership towards Bella made me sick with jealousy. I get on my bike and ride to Main Street. All the most luxurious stores and restaurants are there. I parked next to Lynne Wayne Inc. The manne
Bella's POV The following days were a blur of activity. Chad wanted us to get married immediately. He wanted to announce to the world that I was his fated mate. He has arranged a meeting with the elders to give them the good news. We are supposed to meet with them today at their headquarters. "
Chad's POV The murderous rage I feel is driving me crazy. The desperate need to get free and rip apart everything in my vicinity is overwhelming and torturous. Cobalt senses Bella's presence somewhere nearby and the need to go to her clouds every other thought. I can't control Cobalt, not in a ful
Bella's POV Chad woke up in the middle of the night. His low growls startled me, waking me up as well. He was sitting at the edge of the bed. His breathing was labored. For the first time since I met him, a flicker of fear ran through my body. "Chad, are you alright?" I put my hand on his back,
Bella's POV As the days passed by, I immersed myself in preparing for the full moon's ritual that would break the curse. Hendrick and I haven't told Chad. He would never agree to it if he knew what the ritual would involve. Even Hendrick does not know the whole truth. Hendrick paces back and forth
Chad's POV I entered Bella's room and found her sleeping peacefully. Even when every time she ends up being hurt one way or another, she keeps going on with her head held up high. Her resilience floors me. I look at my clothes covered in blood. I spent all night interrogating the Natbian prisoners
