WINTERDawn gave me a gummy smile. Between her tiny teeth were red particles that hadn't made it through her throat. She raised the glass and took big gulps.Half of her face was hidden behind the glass. However, I noticed the mischief in her eyes. She stopped gulping the juice. But held onto the glass to her mouth."Dawn?" I began, tilting my head when she averted her eyes. "You heard my question, didn't you? Who is Mr. Grey?"Dawn remained silent. Before I could say another word, I heard a chittering sound. It wasn't until I took a closer look at her that I noticed she was tapping her front teeth on the glass."Don't do that. You might hurt yourself." I took the glass from her and returned it to the table.Spinning around at about the same time I sat back down, Dawn reached out to the platter of cupcakes with her soiled little hand. I pulled her back quickly.When she turned to look at me again, her tiny red eyebrows were knitted towards each other. She licked her lips. "Can I have
SEVENA week had passed since my meeting with Stuart and Tyler. Both men had sworn their allegiance to me in my quest to return to where I belonged. While I gave them time to get busy with the plan, I exercised rigorously to make my legs better.And I was already seeing results.As of today, I could now stand and walk with only one crutch. I had gone to the hospital to take the stitches out two days ago. To say that the doctor was pleased to see my improvement was an understatement.The man couldn't stop smiling from ear to ear as he took out the stitches and massaged my legs. I thanked him profusely and promised to pay him for treating me and keeping it a secret.Sweat dripped down my chiseled abs as I got off my exercise mat and went to the fridge in a corner. Uncapping a fresh bottle of water, I gulped down its contents without stopping. I let out a loud grunt, tossing the empty bottle in the trash.I went to the table and picked up my phone. Dialing a number, I pinched the shutter
SEVEN To say that I was stunned to see her would be an understatement. I had to steady myself by hanging on to the door frame. With my eyes widened, I watched as she rose to her full length."Hello, Seven!" Becky called out, waving her hand. "Long time no see!""What the hell are you doing here? How did you find me?" I repeated, still in shock.The last time I saw Becky was weeks ago. I had locked her in her car and sped away. She had gotten into an accident, and I couldn't go to her because I was already in Luster Falls. Her father had been keeping me up to date.Last we spoke, he told me she had been discharged days after the accident and was now resting at home. I never expected that she would show up at my doorstep unannounced.How did she even know that I was lodged in this motel? For all I knew, I had put a great distance between us, so she couldn't possibly have followed me all the way here."Have you gone deaf, Becky? Answer my question!" My voice raised as I glared at her.P
BECKYI had to make a move on Seven tonight. It seemed my acting spoiled and giving him several green lights weren't working. I had to come on to him strong.Once he got a taste of my pussy, there was no way he wouldn't fall for me. I mean, all the men I ever had sex with always came back for more. I had lost count of how many stalkers my father had to get rid of. I had also gotten many restraining orders on desperate men who just wouldn't take the hint!Seven was special. But he was still just a male with a dick. He wouldn't be able to resist me once I sucked his dick and rode it like a cowgirl.The thought of having this hunk of a man eating off my hand got me extra excited. Seven's dick was as huge as I had imagined it to be. The constant bulge in his pants had told me that much over the years. My hand barely wrapped around it. After stroking his dick a few times, I brought down my mouth to it. It filled my mouth more than any other dick I had ever come across.Slowly, I pushed do
WINTER"That's enough. Give it here," Pat said seriously, yanking the dish rag from my hand.It wasn't until she stopped me that I realized I was this close to cleaning off the flowery design on the plate in my hand.Pat took the plate from me next and then nudged me away from the sink. I moved to the other side, looking at the counter for what other chores needed to be done."Don't do anything else, Winter. I have got it all covered. Besides, you have done enough."My shoulders dropped. "But I still want to help.""Why?" Pat dumped the dish rag, turning to face me. "You have been wearing this gloomy expression for days now. You know you can confide in me, right? What's wrong?"All morning, I had been stress-cleaning. My mind was heavy. Heavy with what I needed to be but dreaded. Dawn's request had been on my mind since she made it. I had gone over how I would break the news to Kai. But none of the methods seemed to be good enough.I didn't want to let Dawn down. She rarely asked me f
WINTERWords failed me as Kai waited for me to speak. Even though my first instinct was to tell him no, I couldn't because I knew what I stood to lose. It seemed Kai was willing to agree to the party as long as I did his bidding. But what exactly did he want? And how do I know he wouldn't make an outrageous request?Where was my wolf when I needed her the most?Kai bobbed his bushy eyebrows at me. His stare asking, "What will it be, Winter?"Finally, I found my tongue. "Yes, I will do whatever you ask."He clapped all of a sudden. "Good! Now that I have your word, you can go ahead and throw your daughter a big party. If you like, you could even use a party planner."The approval didn't brighten my mood like I thought it would. Even after Kai waved to dismiss me, I stood still and asked, "Aren't you going to tell me what you want?"He tapped his chin before shaking his head. "Nah, not yet. I'll tell you when the time is right.""You really want to--" I began."Cut me some slack, Winter
WINTEROne close look at her and I could tell that her nerves were in a jumble. Maybe because Dawn would be her very first big client and she must have never thrown a party for the daughter of an Alpha before.I gestured to the sofa behind her. "Please, sit down."Becky flashed a nervous smile before sitting back down. After Pat brought in two glasses of juice, I began the discussion."Your portfolio was really impressive. Honestly, I didn't expect you to be so young. If you don't mind me asking, how long have you been doing this?"She smiled again. "Seven years. I started the business when I was still a teenager.""Wow! That's really impressive!"My life might not have gone as I had planned. Regardless, I was always so elated to see that someone about the same age as me had something great going for herself.She blushed. "You flatter me, Ms. Sharp. But thank you." After taking a sip from the glass of juice, I crossed my legs and clasped my hands together. "My little one is obsessed
SEVENWhen Stuart called yesterday to tell me that the next day was Dawn's birthday, I was super grateful to him for the information. I was also elated to learn that there was going to be a party.Never did it cross my mind that the party would end in a disaster. I had just got out of the tunnel and was scanning the premises when the blast went off.A tingling sound rang in my ears for a long time. I peeled back into the tunnel and stayed there, thinking someone had just sighted me and fired a shot at me.But when the second blast came, I realized that this was no gunshot. It sounded like a bomb. I had looked out of the tunnel again, only to find that there was smoke everywhere.The guards were running helter-skelter. Most of the balloons that decorated the garden had burst. Even the bouncing castle I saw moments ago had deflated.Dawn! Winter!In a trice, I jumped out of the tunnel and walked through the thick and massive cloud of black smoke. My nose and mouth were covered with a ma
WINTER Seven allowed me to hold a small wake for Eric after his body was sent over to his father. I also intended to visit his grave with flowers once I got news about his funeral. As much as a part of me wanted to hate Eric for all the mental strain he put me through, I just couldn't. Despite being infatuated and impulsive, he was still a good friend of mine. His assurance to rescue me was one of the things that made me persevere during those six torturous years. More so, he had protected me from his sister. I wasn't sure I would have survived getting stabbed after barely surviving a gunshot wound with the aid of the Phoenix Orb. As for Becky, she was whisked away while shouting, "Seven, if I can't have you, no one else can!" Last I heard, she was going to be tried for two counts of attempted murder and murder. It turned out that after investigation, the bomb blast that almost took me and my baby's life was her doing. I had lost count of how many times Seven apologized. For some
WINTERI really died. I died with Seven's voice replaying in my head. Then his voice was replaced with a couple of others. I drifted in and out of consciousness as a bright light shone above me.When I finally woke up, Seven's face was the first thing I saw. He grabbed my hand with both of his and smiled brightly. "You're back!"My throat felt dry as I said, "What happened?""You were in a coma. The doctor took out the bullet and..."He picked up a ziplock bag from the table and held it up to me. I saw a bullet inside it. There was something else."Is that...is that what I think it is?" I muttered, staring at the strange-looking shiny ball.Seven nodded. "Yes, this is the Phoenix Orb.""How did it even get inside me?"He sighed. "On the night we had sex for the first time while we kissed, I put it inside of you. I did it to protect you, but I am sorry for not asking for your consent."I went silent for a while, replaying that night. "So, this thing has been inside my chest for six yea
SEVENEverything froze over as soon as Winter's body fell into my arms. I stared for a long time before my brain processed what just happened. "Aargh!" I roared as soon as I saw the blood on Winter's chest.Clutching her shoulders, I looked at her face which was fast becoming pale. "Winter! Why did you? Why!"She smiled at me. "Because I love you and you would have done the same?"I buried my face in her neck. "You shouldn't have. You shouldn't--""Good riddance!" A snarl interrupted my words all of a sudden.I raised my head only to find Nora still aiming the gun at me. With the swiftness of a thousand wolves, I let go of Winter and lunged at Nora. My claws pierced into her chest. And when I pulled back, her heart came with it.Her eyes bulged from the sockets as she fell to the floor with a thud. Ratio, whose head was still on her lap, growled at this moment.Blinded by immeasurable rage, I squeezed the bloodied heart in my hand. Then dropped it to the floor."You!" Ratio shouted a
SEVENEveryone froze on the spot. I looked upstairs just in time for a pair of heels to appear out of nowhere. Tracing the plump legs up, I was shocked to find the face staring down at me."Mother?"My stepmother, Nora, eyed me as she descended the stairs. The gun in her hand scrapped the banister in the process. Once she got to the end of the stairs, she barred her teeth. "I am not your mother! Don't ever call me that!"Another jolt of shock coursed through my body. I stammered, "What...what's happening? What...what are you doing here?""What does it look like I am doing here!" she barked.At this moment, Ratio growled. I saw him reach out his hand to Nora. "Come, my love."What the...My jaw dropped to the floor as I watched Nora walk over to where Ratio was lying. She placed his head on her lap and touched his face. She cried, "What have they done to you, darling? Oh, my God!""Nora!" I shouted. "What do you think you are doing? You know this guy?"At my question, Ratio flashed his
SEVENIt wasn't just any white wolf. It was a she-wolf. She landed on her thin long legs with stealth and barred her equally white teeth at Ratio who was down on his knees.Suddenly, the wolf’s head turned in my direction. My heart had just taken a great leap when I locked eyes with the she-wolf. I instantly felt a sense of connection and smelled that familiar scent.“Winter?” I called out, still skeptical.The she-wolf glanced beside me. She ran behind the coffin-like box. Seconds passed before she showed up again. This time, in her human form and fully dressed in a flannel dress.“Why did you come here? It's too dangerous. Go!” I shouted worriedly.Winter shook her head hard. “I am not leaving you. I only just got you back.”“He’s going to kill you,” I said, glancing at Ratio who was still down and groaning. “Listen to me, please! Leave!”Winter walked over to the cage. She reached out her index finger and touched it slightly. Her skin instantly sizzled. Seeing this, I got even more
SEVEN I stood still, trying to figure out where exactly the voice was coming from. "It's you. Ratio?""Yes, that's me," Came the proud voice. "But you don't get to call me that, Seven. It's Uncle Darren to you."I couldn't help chuckling. "Uncle, my foot! Considering all the atrocities you have committed, you don't even deserve a name, let alone to be called uncle by me.""Ha-ha-ha!" The laugh reverberated on the walls again. "I must say I am quite surprised, nephew. You are not like your father. Unlike him, you have got a very big mouth! Luka must be turning in his grave.""Keep my father's name out of your fucking mouth!" I roared.Ratio chuckled. "And if I don't?"My breathing was getting heavier at this time. I clenched my fists despite the burns on my palms.That voice came again. "It's not like you can do anything to me. You fell right into my trap, so I can say whatever name I like. Luka...Luka! Luka! Luka, that stupid cousin of mine.""Shut the fuck up!"Ratio didn't listen.
SEVENNo one could tell me nothing. The sex Winter and I just had blew my mind. I had gone over this moment several times, but it never occurred to me that it would be this good. I couldn't have enough of her body. Fortunately, she felt the same way.When I finally came, we were both breathing heavily. I collapsed beside her and pulled her into my arms. It didn't take long before we both dozed off. It was already dark outside when I was awoken by the ringing of my phone. I looked at the pile of my clothes that lay on the floor and saw a light coming from the pocket of my pants."Shit! Who could that be?" I cursed as quietly as possible.Winter stirred in my arms. She turned away, her bare butt rubbing against my groin. I held my breath and groaned. I knew it was only a matter of seconds before my little man began to think for me.Quickly and gently, I pulled my arm from underneath Winter's head. I got out of bed and took out my phone. I pressed the volume button before even looking a
WINTERThe moistness of Seven's lips threw me off guard. I wanted to pull away, but I found myself frozen. When he bit my lower lip hard, my whole world tilted.Sparks erupted in my closed eyes. Reels upon reels of pictures filled my head. There were images of Dawn in a princess gown. Then, there was an eruption. After that came the Seven's face. He was roaring at me. No, that's not him. That's...that's...I know him. But that's not Seven. That's... Oh, God! Why can't I reach that name?I was still struggling to remember that name when Seven parted my lips with his tongue and it found its way into my mouth. It sent a shiver through my gooey body. Images continued to pour into my head. No, they were more like motion pictures...videos. Seven's face appeared again. This time, he was smiling at me. He said something. When I read his lips, he seemed to say those magic three words. "I love you!"His voice sounded in my head at this time. "I love you, Winter, and I want you to be my Luna.""
SEVENWinter let go of her head. When she looked up at me, I realized that she had lost so much weight. She wasn't this thin when I saw her at Dawn's birthday party. More so, it seemed she had been crying a lot.What happened to her?I was just about to say something when Winter pulled away from me and ran over to Alaric. She squatted beside him as the soldiers pressed him to the floor. "Honey, please tell me that guy is saying nonsense?""He is!" Alaric declared without skipping a beat. "He's a bad man. In fact, he was the one who caused your car crash.""What!" Winter and I exclaimed at the same time.I saw her look at me. Rage sparked in her eyes. I sensed her blood boiling at the same time. Suddenly, she pointed at me and cried, "So, it was you! You almost killed me. You caused the accident that took my precious daughter away from me!"For a second, I was speechless. What crash were they talking about? Winter's only bad encounter with a car recently was from the abduction which ha
