CLAIR. In a few hours, the ceremony would start, and it would have been a whole day since I'd seen Jake. I was used to having him around all the time for the past few days, and his absence was slowly annoying me. I tried to mind-link him, but it looked like he had shut down his mind for me, which pissed me off as well. Elder Rose explained that before the ceremony, they kept the female secluded only to show her to her Alpha at the ceremony. But I missed him already. You might call me petty, but I already knew how it felt to be away from him, and not knowing what he was up to was bothering me a lot. I closed my eyes and leaned back on the couch where I was lounging. Dad had sent a mindlink earlier saying he would drop by. I was expecting him to show up any time now. As well as Luisa. Two days ago, Jake and I went to the Night Howler’s Pack territory and made a truce with my uncle. I told him I would drop the case for kidnapping and for forcing me to attend the Claiming that we we
CLAIR. "Are you ready?" Luisa asked me, holding both my hands as she stood happily in front of me. She had arrived an hour ago with two escorts. After a thorough inspection of the men with her, they were also allowed entry into the territory, but I had men following them as well. I still didn’t trust Alpha Noah. But I was pleased that he did his part of the bargain. I nodded before I tilted my head to one side to look at Jenny. She was looking at us with awe. She smiled at me before she opened her mouth to speak. "You look beautiful, Luna. Oh, my Goddess! I can’t believe you’re the Luna now. It wasn’t long ago I asked you if you liked the Alpha!" I giggled softly and looked at the full-length mirror in front of me. I was dressed in a midnight blue, above-the-knee lace dress with a sweetheart neckline. It was the same color as the tie I brought for my Alpha. I wanted to match with him tonight, and he seemed okay with it. The only accessory I had was the crescent moon necklace my
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
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. 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
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
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
"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
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.
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
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
