As she washed her face for the seventh time, she sighed heavily. She hadn't spoken to Jayce at all once they got home yesterday, and it was destroying her. She knew why he did what he did, and his reasons were justified, but she wanted to handle it specifically. Lily wanted some sort of control of her situation, and Jayce took it away from her. Control he gave her and immediately took it away. She thought she could be fine passing through the night without talking to him or sleeping beside him, but she yearned to be at his side. To embrace his muscular form until her body molded into his and to never separate again. Since she remained stubborn instead, she worked on her next draft for her novel while ignoring the sleep that tugged at the edges of her mind. Before she knew it, her clock flashed 6 AM in her face
That woman still amazes him. After the speech she gave this morning, she was the talk of the city. Mostly good, some are still a bit confused and angry that it's a Human that turned out to be their Luna instead of a She-Wolf. They'll get over it in time after she shows them she can handle the position flawlessly. A few whispers reached him about her situation. Did they believe her? What proof did she offer? The only proof she had was currently covered up with makeup from his mother. No matter. Fate already decided things, and he'll flow with it."My King." Someone called to him, making his Wolf growl. He turned to see a short, round
Fuck. I need to be fucked.Lily smiled through her horniness after her time with Jayce in the bathroom. She didn't know what got into her. Maybe it was the lack of attention she got all day from him. Maybe it was the intense situation with a door hiding them from the world. Whatever it was, it excited her in a way she never felt before. And she wanted more of it.Jayce had to take his leave and make his rounds, but he would escort her later for the lanterns. The way his eyes fired up her sex and his sexy smirk on his lips nearly made her cum. She ached badly for her Mate."We're almost there, Lily. You're doing great." Erica cheered her on from behind her. Lily smiled back at her, feigning innocence. She couldn't wait for this to be over."Miss Thornstun, it's an honor." A man's voice interrupted her thoughts, and pressure slithered behind her right ear. She felt her heart race as she looked up at the man before her. He had jet black hair, a charming smile, goatee and pale blue eyes. T
He didn't react fast enough. The bastard gave off his scent at the last second before he pulled the trigger. He felt the warm blood pool beneath him, and Lily's scream in the distance. He felt cold, and for a long time he didn't think he was going to recover. Jasper was doing God knows what to his Mate, and silver bullets incapacitated him.Our Mate needs us.His Wolf growled in his subconscious. Jayce looked at the eerie crimson eyes that matched his own. A sharp pain erupted in his ribs that forced a gasp from his lips. He knew this pain.Let's not make her wait then.His bones shifted as an earth shattering crack nearly split his head in two. He pushed off the ground while hunched over. His clothes tore away as fur sprouted from his body. He was as black as the darkest of nights as he stood on his hind legs. He inhaled deeply, his senses heightened.Jayce...Her voice drew his attention over to Jasper, who leaned over Lily, pinning her down with his legs. She sobbed uncontrollably,
The hot water streamed down her flushed body, her hair clinging to her frame like glue. It had been two weeks since Jayce made true to their promise, but she wasn't expecting to be ravaged the entire time. She managed to eat, sleep, shower and answer the call to nature in between. However no place deemed safe for her. He'd find new ways to explore.Who knew shower sex was so exhilirating?
Damion rested his arms behind his head as he watched Erica get dressed, her curly Mohawk in disarray from their love making. He looked her over from her heart shaped ass and her plump breasts, all fitting so well into his hands. He got out of bed as she clasped on her bra, moving up behind her and kissed her neck. She shivered in response, his hands reaching around and cupping her breasts."Damion, I have to finish packing. My flight leaves in a few hours." She told him, but she wasn't fighting him. He nibbled on her shoulder, his fangs extending and grazing against her skin.
Jayce walked off the plane in Texas. It was Novemeber and still quite warm. How he wished for snow and ice. His phone buzzed in his pocket and he noticed Damion calling him."I just landed in Texas, you couldn't wait until...""Jayce, this is an emergency." He stated quickly. Jayce tensed up, a million reasons running through his head.
She rubbed the back of her neck as she stepped off the plane, the cold morning air kissing her nose. She tightened her hold on her jacket, shivering as she descended the stairs and followed the crowd. The meeting with the author went better than she expected with no distractions. Even though it all went so well, a part of her mind kept going back to Damion. His charming smile and his dorky personality. She surprised herself by smiling at the thought of him. What did Damion mean to her?She walked down a brightly lit hallway crowded with people. Every conversation blurred together into nonsense as her mind wandered off. She told
Lily looked out the living room window to the night sky, snow gracefully falling. She had put Elias to sleep just a few hours ago, but she couldn't succumb to the sleep spell herself. It had been nearly a month since Jayce left and very little gain on his side. Not like she got far herself. With Elias staying there, she was so occupied with him and making sure he was happy and having a good time, she had kept pushing off her duties. Now she only had a few weeks left until the winter solstice and she was at square one.She wrapped her arms around her knees, resting her chin on one. The position made her stomach uncomfortable. Sh
The sun casted its light across the ocean's surface, glistening blindingly in the summer heat. Waves licked the soft sand, smothering fresh foot prints that were left behind. Lily walked along the shore, the water lapping at her ankles, its warmth barely mimicking that of the sun's rays on her already lightly tanned skin. Her blonde hair swayed against her lower back, slightly frizzed from the humidity. Sweat and the ocean spray carried by the gentle breeze speckled her skin with tiny droplets. She gazed out at the ocean, the water going on for miles. She ran her fingers over her bikini top, feeling the slivers of her scars that continued to decorate her skin. Her fingers stopped as they reached her lower belly where a new addition of scars now existed. She smiled to herself as she traced the long scar. Sh
Jayce stood in front of his mirror, his white button up still on done, a vibrant emerald tie sitting around his neck untouched. He tilted his head slightly until Lily's bite came into view. It had been roughly a week or so now that she had bit him, and yet it had not healed completely. In her words and that of his Wolf, their bond was just that strong that her Mark held true. Yet his gut was telling him something else was at play, but he didn't know as to what yet.
The moon shined in through the dark curtains, casting shadows across her black comforter. She knew it was late, but her mind just wouldn't shut down. She wished to blame it on wedding jitters, but the way her chest constricted with the usual panicked feeling, she knew it was worse than that. The idea of Karmina hunting her down specifically, the Supernatural world being much larger than she realized. Jayce knew. They all did, and she was kept out of the loop. He can say it was for her safety, but she thought he would know better by now.
He was leading Lily through the pack house blindfolded, the others following close behind them. After breakfast, everyone had gathered to go over what was left on the to-do list. Luna Isis had taken over as the wedding planner, relieving Lily of the burden. Luna Ella offered to be the photographer, bragging a bit about her photography studio in Louisiana. Alpha Javon offered to be the ordained minister for them, and Archibald practically demanded to cover the music. Lily looked uncertain about the Alpha controlling the music for the reception and Jayce couldn't blame her. He was devious with his antics in Hawaii, tempting his King with beautiful women. Never again will he be swayed other than by his Queen. Nathan and Selene were talking at the back of the group, discussing the layout of the venue set up Lily
Jayce advised the Lunas and Alphas to leave them be for the rest of the evening and they would gather in the morning to get the last minute details wrapped up for the wedding. At first the Lunas were hesitant to leave her alone, especially Selene. Maybe the Luna, soon to be Alpha, felt responsible for what her deceased husband did, but Lily could never blame her. There may have been a point in time where Lukas was a decent man, and he truly cared about Selene, but that man surrendered himself to a being unheard of. Karmina. Was she that enticing of a character? Should she be worried about the other Alphas succumbing to her? What about Jayce?
When did Lily become so grown up?His little girl was speaking to a group of She-Wolves after their dinner wrapped up. He knew that she was a people pleaser, but this atmosphere that surrounds her now is of something much higher than himself. Even Erica was taking part and she could care less about formal parties, that's just how she was. Yet here they both were, still together after all this time.
He watched his love give and receive the respect of a Luna before his very eyes. His heart swelled up with pride as she talked to the women as if they have been life long friends. Since arriving at his home, she had grown so much. Much more than he had, but he wanted to believe he was still a work in progress and that took getting her trust back and forgiving him."There is one other point of discussion we need to cover while we're all here." He announced, his voice silencing the group. Lily looked at him confused, her green eyes sparkling up at him.
Icould have saved him...The nurse that examined Lily gave her a frown like she could read her mind. Lukas was too far gone to even bother saving, but his Wolf? His Wolf still had a clear conscious. He still served his King to the very end. She just hoped he found the peace he needed to move on."Lily." Damion spoke, but she didn't glance his way. H
"Is Lily my sister?" He asked Derek. The Alpha shut his eyes and for a moment Jayce grew scared and horrified. After finding the picture of a woman that was the spitting image of Lily in his jacket pocket, he had a million questions added on from what he already had. He got lucky to arrive in time when Lukas was about to go in for the kill on Lily. Jayce only saw red after that, tearing Lukas apart until he was barely breathing. Then when he turned his attention on Derek who was already shifted back and injured, Lily had crossed his path, defending him."He saved me." She had said before passing out. Now she lay in a hospital b
