PRECIOUS “Do you want this or should I let you rest?” His words came as a surprise to me. Never had I imagined nor had I ever seen a man as gentle as he was. No matter what he just told me, I knew that was not what he wanted to do. I could feel his arousal on me, I knew he was battling with his wolf right now to take control. I knew it was hard for him to control this and I also knew that he meant his words. He wasn't only saying it just to please me or make me happy. At least I saw his honesty in his eyes and also the way his desire for me was dancing in his orbs. What sort of man is he? Words stuck in my throat and I didn't know what to say. I just stared at him, knowing it was only a matter of time before he decided to wear his clothes, concluding that my silence was my way of telling him that I was tired. “I can never get tired of having you all fuck me hard.“ The words rolled off my tongue before I could let that happen, and I could swear I saw him let out a sigh of relief
*Secret Pov* I summoned everyone using our mind link, even though I disliked using that, I knew it was necessary right now if I wanted us all together at the same time. I barked an order at them and I immediately cut off the mind link. I took a deep breath to calm my racing heart. I knew what this was, I couldn't play this fucking game with them any longer. I was tired of hearing her tell me otherwise. This was my fight and I wouldn't need anyone's opinion any more. That was why I called everyone in tonight. We'd have to discuss things so that I can know who has the same mind as me, and whoever that isn't with me would be distanced from me immediately. Soon, the door flew open and they all matched in, all the while their eyes fixed on me. I nodded my head and stretched my mind towards the bed but only one of them remained standing. I didn't pay her attention but rather busied myself with looking at them, one after the other. “I want to end this.” I blurted out. They all wat
PRECIOUS My heart lurched in my throat at Richmond's utterance. Attack! That one word had been the cause of my past nightmare. That one word had snatched my family and pack members away from me. For a moment, I couldn't breathe; my nostrils seemed to seal shut. I glanced at my mates, and their expressions mirrored mine. Nate's mouth hung agape, his hands frozen on his hips, while Damon stood rigid, his eyes fixed on something ahead. The others wore fear like a mask, their faces contorted in dread. My chest heaved as a whirlwind of emotions - fear, anger, disbelief - struck me like a storm. Is this the end? Will I once again lose the ones I love? “We were expecting this with all that has been going on,” Richmond finally spoke up, his voice calm like before a storm. “Yeah, but when nothing happened, I thought it was just a bunch of childish antics,” Tiger stated gruffly, his voice laced with irritation and a hint of disappointment, as if he was still frustrated that his expectat
PRECIOUS A few hours had passed, and I had been locked in my room all this while. The past few hours had sapped my strength, as I spent them checking up on the wounded wolves and consoling the families of the deceased. It had not been easy, but we managed. Comforting mourning families was far harder than I had thought. Watching the weeping mothers and sisters brought me a fresh wave of pain. It had reopened my old wound, and I found myself weeping for them, just as I had cried for my family and best friend. Remembering them wasn't easy, but the only consolation I had was that their murderers had paid for their deaths. However, those women and sisters mourning their lost ones had no such closure—their murderers were still alive, roaming free, and waiting for the perfect moment to strike again. Alpha Rodriguez and my mates had promised to take care of the wounded until they were fit again and bury the dead. While it wouldn't bring the dead back, it was something. The dead had given th
PRECIOUS All eyes turned to me after my utterance. I could see the question in their eyes, which I was going to answer. “Everything,” Michelle murmured. “Tell them everything.” “What if they hate me for it?” I asked, scared of their reaction. I could have told them when those nightmares were coming but I chose to remain quiet about it. “They'd be fools to,” Michelle snorted. “You are brave enough to have kept it bottled inside of you. If they can't see how good you are, then they don't deserve you.” “What do you want to tell us?” Duke raised his eyebrow at me. I let out a puff of air through my nose, wringing my hands in nervousness. They will not hate me. No one knows if this is even connected, I kept telling myself. So, I shared my first nightmare, and then went on to describe the one that involved Duke and what the duplicate Duke had said to me. There were many of them, but those were the ones I remembered. After I finished, an uncomfortable silence fell over us, each lost in
PRECIOUS That night, we received a mind link from Beta Riley that he was coming with his friend's grandmother. It came as a surprise to us that she agreed to it that easily. I had been thinking she would need more convincing or better still request for us to go there. Duke and Damon had returned, including Nate and Richmond. They were excited with the news, none discussing it but it was clearly written on their faces that it was on their mind. Me on the other hand, I was dancing around with joy. Although there was some other parts that was scared about what'd say. What if all this was just for nothing and such a waste of time? My question was answered when Beta Riley cleared his throat in the mind link, followed by an older woman's chuckle. I quickly checked my image in front of the mirror, evening some hair that had scattered about before nodding at my dress and leaving through the door. By the time I went down stairs, Beta Riley and the woman were already chatting and laughin
PRECIOUS When I woke up, I found out that I was the only one in bed. The scents of my mates were still ever present, and I started sniffing the bed and pillows because I had already started to miss them. Sandalwood, chocolate and red wine, fresh pine and grass after it rains, bursts of amaretto and cinnamon buns, and the rich scent of sweet almonds and roses wafted into my nose. Yummy! That one word was enough to describe their scents, but I still preferred to have their bodies melted against mine rather than to sniff the bed and pillows. Getting up from the bed, I spread out my arms as a yawn escaped my mouth. Just like I expected, the long hours of sleep actually helped to soothe my tired bones. Hunger like I had never experienced struck me, and I instinctively placed a hand to my tummy. “Looks like someone is hungry,” Michelle chuckled. I rolled my eyes. “Shut up. If I don't eat you won't as well. So as one body, I can say you are hungry as well.” “Well then, go eat for the
PRECIOUS The first thing I did once I returned home was to go under the shower and remain there for thirty minutes. It had really been a long time since I trained, and in just two days my bones had been put to work in a row. Sighing, I got out wrapped in my towel, and after I had dried up, I walked to my closet and decided on a loose pant and baggy shirt before I stumbled downstairs. I made my way to the kitchen and dished myself a heap of white rice and white sauce. I started digging in and I didn't notice when the food was almost gone. By the time I was done, I washed my plate and drank a glass of water before I made my way back to my room. I decided to give Ruby a call. Ever since she found her mate, I had not spoken to her. I wondered how she was faring and I couldn't wait to gossip with her about her mate. She picked the call on the third ring and I swear I could hear some background moaning. “Hi, I guess I must have called at the wrong time.” I smirked, folding my legs
