Jaque POV . . "You must be hungry. C'mon, I ordered the chef in the palace to prepare snacks for you!" He intertwined my hands with his and gestured me to follow him. I thought my kitten heels shoes were comfortable compared to stilettos, but the moment I began my first step, I tripped and almost sprained my knees. It was a good thing Logan's reflex was fast. He immediately caught me before I could hurt myself more. "Are you all right?" He asked, worried and scared. "I'm fine. It's my first time wearing shoes with heels!" I confessed. "I usually wore flats or sneakers in Blood Moon Pack!" Or sometimes I wore slippers or sandals or nothing at all. I would like to add, but I chose to just keep it to myself. "I see. Wait!" He just said and saw his orbs turning into complete white. He was mind-linking someone. How I wished I could also do that. Then Shiva appeared in my thoughts. She had been manifesting in my dreams a lot lately. I wondered when she would come out. I also want
Jaque POV . . "It's wonderful to see you again, My King!" She jeered at him, and Logan just laughed at her. He even lifted her from the ground and twirled her around. "Shvt up! I missed you, too!" He replied, joking. "So, how was your trip around the world?" He asked. I was just sitting at the table waiting for him to introduce me to her. "Oh! Terrific! I wish you were with me. It's more fun if we took the cruise together!" Earlier, her voice was amazing, but now, it's irritating. I just wanted to slap her hands that were hanging on his shoulders. My fists clenched tight while staring at them. If Logan would still forgets that I was here, I might have just walked out. Until it was Serena who noticed me. "Oh! Logan, how rude you are!" She slapped Logan's arm. "You forgot to introduce me to your mate!" She added as she walked past him and walked toward me. I got up right away. Goddess, she was taller than me in flats, how much more in heels. I felt tiny while staring at her
Logan POV . . "Give me the key. Hurry up!" Miranda's hands were shaking as she gave me the set of keys. "You want me to find it among all of these?!" I was agitated. "My apologies, My King!" She bowed and gave me a single key with her trembling hand. "Miranda, since when did you become like this? Stop shaking and just calm down!" I roared. "If not, I will find someone to replace you!" "No! My King! Please, don't replace me!" She immediately stared at me with her beseeching gaze. "All right! You can leave now!" I dismissed my butler, who'd been working in the palace since my father took the throne. Miranda had literally witnessed me growing up. She scooted right away after hearing my roar. As I opened the door of my room, I saw Jaque curl up on the bed while sitting down. The same position she had when I found her in the cave. I ambled toward her while she was just staring at me. "I'm sorry!" I uttered as I touched her wet face. She had been crying again. "I didn't
Jaque POV . . Every touch he made ignited the desire in me. The longing and lust I had once felt. "Oh! Logan!" Calling his name was like a chorus of music, I wanted to say it over and over. As I felt his warm palm clamped my folds, a gasp escaped my lips; f*ck, he was good. He groaned while kissing every part of me. His tongue licked the crook of my neck down to the valley of my breasts and halted there, nibbling my nipples. The feeling of pain and pleasure was overwhelming, plus how his finger played with my clit, goddess I would like to scream in ecstasy. "Hmm! You can scream, my queen!" Like he could read my mind. "Werewolves here, don't mind!" He added as he suddenly ripped off the little fabric that was covering my honeypot. "You're more beautiful when naked, Jaque!" He gently uttered as he fixed his gaze on me. "Lie down!" He commanded, and I obeyed at once. "Let me see you, my mate!" His orbs traveled to my bareness, lust was written all over his gorgeous face. "Mine!"
Logan POV . . I felt cheated! I thought I was her first. The way she behaved, I thought she was pure and innocent, but no! Somebody had already touched her. 'She is ours!' Thorin was also upset. He was not upset about our mate but by the situation. 'Who dares to touch her first?' I shared the same question with my wolf. She was nineteen. How could she lose her virginity at an early age? Well, Serena and I had our first s*x when we were both eighteen. However, for me, this case was different. Did she have a boyfriend before me? If yes, who? Where was that as*hole now? 'Investigate!' Thorin lordly ordered. 'That I will do!' I also nodded. 'For now, let's not treat her differently. She is still our mate no matter what!' 'She said she loves us!' She did declare that she loved us. I was confused about my feelings for her after finding out I wasn't her first. However, she was my fated mate, and the bond was strong. 'I like her, too, but we need a thorough check on her backgro
Jaque POV . . I groaned at the loud knocking on the door. My eyes squinted as they gradually adjusted to the light coming from the sun. 'Who could be knocking like a nagging wife in the morning?' I asked in my thoughts. Last night, I slept late, waiting for Logan to come back. Now, I woke up without him by my side. I suddenly felt empty. That was my second night in the palace, and all I could say was it wasn't what I expected at all. I touched the pillow beside my head and sniffed, hoping his scent was there. A touch of sandalwood and cinnamon. The deep, creamy sweetness with warm undertones of amber, leather, and wood from sandalwood always made me think of a place I used to go when my mother was still alive - church! While the cinnamon's warm, spicy, and sweet, with woody undertones scent, exuded a sense of coziness and comfort. A simple reminiscent of freshly baked goods and holiday festivities in my former human world where my mother usually worked. She was a baker in
Jaque POV . . "Lalaine Swan, my favorite teacher!" Serena walked past me and hugged this Mrs. Swan. So, her first name was Lalaine. "I'm sorry that our queen spoke to you that way!" "Excuse me, Serena!" I was about to clarify something, but she just raised my hand to my face. "This is the reason why I asked you to come!" She was smiling from ear to ear while I was still panting in anger. I glanced at Logan, asking for a little help, but he just fixed his gaze on me. "Thank you, Serena. You think too highly of me!" Mrs. Swan answered while taking a little glance in my direction. "I understand that our lady here acted that way. She is not refined and delicate yet!" She twitched her lips and cringed her nose. Her eyes were speaking in volumes while staring at Serena. Then she turned and glanced in Logan's direction, who was standing at the door frame. "My king, greetings to you!" With a slight bow like she did to me earlier, she gave Logan a sign of respect. "Good day,
Jaque POV . . Inside the Lambo, the atmosphere was silent and cold. I would like to speak and break this ear-piercing quietness, but I was kind of scared of my mate. "Do you want to say something?" Logan questioned without glancing at me. His eyes were focused on the scenery outside of the window. "Are you mad at me?" I asked, anxious. I heard him sigh and then shifted his stare at me. "Life in the palace isn't as sweet and exciting as everyone thinks it is. Jaque, I am aware that the staff are giving you a hard time!" He was aware of that?! I stared back at him with a baffled expression. "But consider it as a training. You're going to be the Shadow Rock Kingdom queen, and you will experience more than that in the future!" "Are you trying to tell me that I have to accept everything even if it's not right?" I was more confused than ever. "You're still young. You will learn a lot more as time passes by. Jaque, I'm not saying that you have to swallow everything. I'm j
