CLAIR

I woke up with a pounding headache and the sun’s rays on my face.

It must be late in the morning if the sun was up already. I squinted my eyes and turned to my side to avoid the sun, wanting to have a little more time to myself.

It took a while before I remembered what happened yesterday morning. Everything came rushing forward, and I felt a familiar pang of pain across my chest. I knew I needed to get up and get out of this misery.

My eyes moved to the clock, which was flashing at 8:15 AM. Damn! I’d slept for almost 24 hours. No wonder I was so hungry.

I hurriedly rose to my feet and headed for the bathroom, only to halt in front of the mirror when I saw my face and my puffy eyes. I cried myself to sleep again.

It’s weird how I felt the heaviness inside me, but at the same time, I felt empty.

I rejected Jake. Or almost did, if he hadn’t stopped me.

Did I really want to do it? I don’t know.

I let out a loud sigh before stripping off my clothes and stepping under the show

  • HE'S MY ALPHA   Chapter 53

    CLAIR I haven’t seen him again except the morning after while eating my breakfast. After that, I avoided him at all costs. Not just him, everyone else. I didn’t attend any of the training and spent most of my time at the daycare center. Once, I went off on my own to the city outside the territory just to wind off, much to Aaron’s dismay. He still thought I couldn’t take care of myself. Well, hell yes, I knew sooner or later I would be on my own and taking care of myself again. It has been five days since I almost rejected him, and I still have no idea what I was doing here in his territory. I should go away, leave, and just move on. This place suffocated me sometimes, but as much as I wanted to go away and just leave, my wolf wouldn’t let me. She wanted our mate, and no matter how many times I explained that he didn’t feel the same way, she wouldn’t give up. Jenny visited last night and we had a serious talk. I still didn’t tell her about us being fated. I didn’t know why I was st

    JAKE I heard rustling in the bushes and a muffled sound from a small animal. By the smell of it, I knew there was a nearby rabbit. Echo began to move slowly and carefully towards our prey, weighing each step before he leaped to catch and sink his fangs into its neck. He snapped it dead in a second. That was an easy catch. I let the rabbit hang in my teeth while I walked lazily towards the packhouse, still in my wolf form. It was almost noon, and I’d been running for the last two hours. There was no intention of hunting, but my sudden craving to snap some necks overpowered me when the opportunity knocked. Sleep alluded me last night, like the other nights since she almost rejected me. The heaviness in my chest seemed to never disappear, even after days had gone by. This morning, I let my wolf out. We needed air. My Beta told me everything Clair said to him about me yesterday. She must have really hated me now if she felt that way. I had no one else to blame, but do I have a cho

    CLAIR My eyes wandered to the people around the area where we set up Dad’s small party. Everyone seemed to enjoy themselves, especially Dad. He was surprised and had no clue that we had something prepared for him. He even prepared food at home for the three of us to celebrate with. In the end, we just brought the food with us here. Aaron wanted to make this special since this would be the first time we were all together on his birthday after five years. And I couldn’t agree more. The bare ground turned out beautifully with the colored lightbulbs hanging up and paper lanterns on the tree branches, setting a cozy atmosphere around us. The refreshment table, as well as the food buffet, were on the other side. And tables and chairs were all around, draped in a wine-red colored cloth. The place was oozing with music and drinks. Aaron really went all out for this. Although the food looked great, I didn’t have an appetite tonight and instead focused on the alcoholic drinks. A few glasse

    CLAIR "I, Absaline..." I saw panic register on his face as his breathing hitched. "Don’t... Clair!" He growled louder. His hands were gripping my arms tightly, but I remained still, not moving an inch and not tearing my wicked eyes off him. My eyes squinted as I continued with my words. "...Clair Montrell... wants to suck you, Alpha Jacob Galhart of the Black Shadow Pack... up to your heart’s content... until you come into my mouth." I finished my sentence and licked my lips, flashing him a naughty smile, before I started giggling at the expression on his face. I knew I was being mean, but it was nothing compared to the pain he was giving me. Jake breathed a sigh of relief. His grip on my arms loosened as he dropped his body onto the mattress, arms spread wide open as he closed his eyes. His chest was still heaving, and he must be doing his best to calm himself and his wolf. I took the opportunity to scramble out of straddling him and drop to my knees in front of him at the foo

    CLAIRWe stayed in the same position for what seemed like an eternity, wrapped in each other’s arms, just reveling in the moment we shared together. I wished everything was just as perfect as this — no complications at all. But I knew better.I should still be mad at him, but instead, I just let him take me again. Maybe the problem was me and not him all along. I let him drug me with his warmth, and now I can’t seem to withdraw from it.I wriggled out of his hold, snapping Jake from his own reverie. He immediately let me down on my feet, and I stumbled to fix my dress. Shit! I didn’t have any underwear! Why did he need to tear it off?"Why in a hurry?" He snickered while tucking a strand of loose hair behind my ear and rubbing his thumb over my cheek.I dropped my gaze to the floor. I was afraid to meet his eyes as I straightened my skirt, my cheeks heating up from his touch. Damn sparks."I need to get back there. They might be looking for me." I told him in a calm tone."I don’t th

    JAKE After leaving the party in a bad mood, I locked myself inside my office. I had no idea what to do at this point. I grabbed the whisky bottle from the liquor cabinet in the corner and poured it into my glass. The burn in my throat as I drowned in it helped to ease my mind, but only for a split second. Once the burn passed, her face came back into my head again. Goddess, what have I done wrong? I spent the next twenty minutes in complete silence until I couldn't take it anymore. 'Clair...' I sent her a mindlink. 'Jake... Oh, Goddess!' Her voice came out raspy, and fuck, it was so seductive. What the fuck? Was she moaning? A smile crept on my face as I opened my window and jumped out, heading to where my help might be needed. It seemed like it was hard to satisfy this girl. I needed to work double time. In an instant, I found myself flinging my body upwards towards the small roof outside her bedroom window. And just to my luck, her curtains were open, and the dimmed light f

    JAKE The sun's gentle ray touched my face, urging me to flip my eyes open. The sun had just started to come up, and the cold breeze of air danced around my skin, together with the familiar warm feeling of sparks. A low, sleepy groan sounded just below me, and it took me some seconds before I was able to see where I was and who was clinging to my arms. Clair. I placed a kiss on her forehead and blew the loose hair strands on her face gently. We were in the middle of the forest, naked, with her sitting in my lap, her head resting on my chest, while I cuddled her like a baby. This was pure bliss. After she had hunted a small rabbit, I let Rain eat the rabbit, but she was nice enough to share it with Echo, refusing to eat it until he ate it with her. And then we ran and played some more, before taking a rest under this tree. Clair then fell asleep in her wolf form, but immediately shifted to her human form once her head lolled into slumber. I shifted after that and took her into my

  • HE'S MY ALPHA   Chapter 60

    CLAIR It's been two days since we last saw him— since we went running and hunting in the woods. I heard from the Beta that he had gone out for some investment meetings, taking a few warriors with him. Aside from running the pack, Jake owned, or should I say, the pack owned, multiple businesses that he personally ran, including those in the human territory. And knowing he was out there with humans, a part of me was somehow jealous of the possibility of him getting attracted to some human enough to take her as his Luna. I guessed she'd be less complicated than me. I sighed again, dismayed by my own thoughts. I washed all the dishes in the sink after I had eaten my breakfast and headed off to the living room to pass the time since I had no plans to attend the training today. It had been more than a week since I had been at the training ground. I would probably go tomorrow, or the next day, or whenever. It was just that lately, I'd been losing motivation to train. Dad went to work as

  • HE'S MY ALPHA   NEW BOOK: THE BETA IS MINE

    What would you do if you had been saving yourself for your mate? Only for him to choose another Alpha Female right in your face? Reciprocate the act. Avenge. An eye for an eye. A tooth for a tooth. Easier said than done. Because whenever he was around me, my body betrayed me. "Alia, do you trust me? Even just for tonight?" His voice came out low and rough that it sent shivers of pleasure direct to my core. I know I should not trust him. But my body and my mouth have a mind of their own. "I trust you, Gavin..." I whispered as I pressed my back to his naked chest. He took a deep breath and dipped his head into my neck, slowly brushing his lips against my burning skin. I angled my neck, giving him more access while a sultry moan escaped my throat when he started nibbling and sucking the soft spot on my neck. This was all wrong, but I don't want to be right this time. Just for tonight.

  • HE'S MY ALPHA   EPILOGUE 2

    CLAIRI stirred awake at the pleasure running through my body. A hand trailed on the skin of my thigh, and from the sparks emitted from the contact, I knew my mate was freely roaming his calloused palm all over my nakedness again, which he would always do once in a while. And I never complained. And I didn’t think I would ever complain.I raised my hand and coiled it in his hair, gripping it and letting him know I was already awake. His lips brushed against my stomach, and the hotness of his breath fanning against my skin and the intimacy of the act was enough for wetness to start pooling in my core."Jake..." I moaned his name, my throat still dry from sleep. "Love, do you even sleep?" I asked him with a hoarse voice while my hand continued to caress his dark hair which seemed to grow thicker and darker with each year.He tilted his head and adjusted his body to be parallel to mine. We were lying on our sides, and with smiling eyes, he raised his hand to my face and brushed my cheek w

  • HE'S MY ALPHA   EPILOGUE

    CLAIRI woke up today with gratitude for the precious privilege of being alive, being able to enjoy life, and loving the people around me.It was a beautiful spring day, but it was nothing short of ordinary.It was early morning, and the sun cast its glorious rays upon the garden outside of the pack house. The sight of our backyard made me realize how big my world was and how blessed I truly was.The ground was buzzing with male pups who tried to outdo each other, while the females, including my daughter, Catherine, tried to mess up their games.At eight years old, she reminded me of myself in many ways. She was a carbon copy of me, only her hair was straight and black. Something she got from her father.And just like when I was younger, she would always come running around with pastries to bribe the boys to let her join their games, and with her charm and wit, she would always get what she wanted.I shook my head as a smile graced my lips. I saw my little Catherine jump at the back of

    "It is a blessing and a curse to feel everything so deeply." 2 YEARS AFTER JAKE. Her scent reached my nose even before I felt her presence. Twigs snapped as small footsteps echoed around us as she approached the place I was resting in. I turned my head in the direction of the noise just in time to see my lovely Clair emerge from the bushes with a small plastic bag that she kept close to her chest. Her eyes were beaming with happiness. It’s been two years since I made a vow under the blue moon to protect and love my fated mate. It has been two years of waking up every day with the fear that something might go wrong. That all I had and all I ever wanted would be snatched right before my eyes. I tried to live with that fear by living my life to the fullest. I made sure that I gave my all to my pack and to her. I never wasted any moment with Clair. Deep down inside, I knew our days were numbered. One thing might happen, and I might never get the chance to be with her for longer t

    JAKE. "I came here not to tell you to forgive me. I have already accepted that you won’t. I came here to tell you that I never stopped thinking about you. I never stopped caring. I always had my eyes on you." He threw a manila envelope on the desk but didn’t say anything. My curiosity got the best of me as I grabbed and opened the envelope. There were pictures. All of me - from my childhood until my union ceremony a week ago. I flipped the pictures that I had in my hands, and there were dates on them, and I knew it was my father’s handwriting. It had a detailed description of the event and where the photos were taken. "I wasn’t here, but those photos — I watched you grow up in those. I had people within the pack who would send me those, and if they forgot, I would bother them non-stop." He chuckled at his own words. "You made me proud, son. This pack loves you. They worship you, and I know that leaving you here was a good choice I made. So I don’t regret it. I took an Alpha away

  • HE'S MY ALPHA   Chapter 87

    CLAIR. It has been a week since my union ceremony with my mate. I started to find my place in the pack, although the real Luna work has not yet begun. On the other hand, Jake had his head pressed against his work, especially now that his Beta wasn’t around. After the revelation that Alia, Alpha Caspian’s sister, was the Beta’s mate, Jake decided to send him to their pack instead of Aaron’s second-in-command to administer the training for their pack warriors. It was supposed to commence next month, but unfortunately, during my Union Ceremony, the Blue Meadow’s pack — Alpha Caspian’s territory — was attacked by a number of rogues. They had few casualties and many were injured, so Alpha Caspian requested to have the retraining scheduled immediately. Seeing this as an opportunity for the Beta to fix his bond with Alia, Jake sent him off there. I, on the other hand, was still adjusting to my life as Jake’s mate. I was expecting that I would be pushed to attend meetings and review files

    CLAIR. I woke up to the sound of movements around me, squinting my eyes to see my mate drying his hair with a towel. He had his pants on, but his chest was still naked. He looked at me, and a smile tugged on his lips. He threw the towel on the chair nearby before walking to the bed. "How was your sleep?" He asked as he sat at the side of the bed, the mattress dipping under his weight, causing me to slide a little on his side. "Had any dreams?" I rolled my eyes playfully and grinned at him. "Yeah, like a wet dream." "Tell me about it." He chuckled. I sat on the bed and slapped his arm lovingly, my fingers trailing on his skin. "I woke up expecting to find you still beside me. Now I’m disappointed." He bit his lower lip and eyed me with regret. "I know, baby, but my Beta and Gamma wanted to talk with me now. But I promise that after this, I’m all yours today." I flashed him a sincere smile before I cupped his face and placed a kiss on his lips. My movement made the sheet pool down

    JAKE."Please..." My mate begged me to fuck her. Fuck this. She made it look like I didn’t want to fuck her when all I thought about the whole night was the different ways I would feast on her body tonight.Her smell was more potent than I could remember — more potent than her previous heat — and I couldn’t remember being this aroused as I felt right now. My cock just kept getting harder, and it felt like I could explode anytime just by looking at her and how she tried to seduce me.How did I get this lucky?I was mated to an innocent-looking temptress. Fuck!My wolf wanted to come out and fuck the hell out of our mate, but that would never happen. She was mine to fuck, so I shoved my wolf to the back of my mind before I positioned myself nearer her throbbing core.I could see her slickness, and it was already leaking at the sides of her legs. I badly wanted to taste her, but it could wait. My goal right now was to satisfy my mate.Fuck! I held my dick and jerked it up and down with m

    CLAIR. "We are gathered here tonight for the union of our Alpha, Jacob Galhart, with Lady Clair Montrell, the future Luna of the Black Shadow Pack. I preside over this union under the blue moon with great honor, where the Goddess will bestow her greatest blessing, the blessing of love and bliss." Elder Garret cleared his throat before turning his face towards me and my Alpha. "May I ask the Alpha and the Future Luna to promise to love and be loyal to each other as I bind you together for life in the name of the Goddess?" I turned to my side to face my Alpha. I slowly lifted my eyes to meet his, and even without touching him, I could feel the spark and the tingles that had been a constant in my skin whenever he was around. My eyes then followed Jake‘s movement as he took my hand and held it to his while Elder Garett started to bind our wrists together with a black rope, which symbolized the color of the pack. And then our eyes met again, and my heart stopped. He was beautiful but
