DELSANRA
I wanted him to realise that his kind were monsters, that I could never accept them… I wanted him to realise that and just leave me alone. But the effect this had… He was able to pull out of the memory before he had even seen the worst of it and the anger that radiated from him made me stumble backwards. His eyes blazed green and his voice was terrifying.
"Who the fuck were they?"
I didn’t know, but if I said that, would he take his anger out on me? I couldn’t be so sure. Our eyes met and his returned to their usual gorgeous grey.
He walked towards me, but I stepped back.
"I… I don’t know who they were."
I flinched when he raised his hands, only for my eyes to widen in surprise as he cupped my face. The rough pads of his fingers felt good against my cool skin. My heart skipped a beat when he looked down at me, the pain and anguish that I saw in his made my own eyes sting. I placed my hand on his chest, feeling his heart racing
Thank you for reading and all the love on this book! It means a lot.
RAYHAN I had never felt more terrified or hopeless in my life than I did when I saw her lying there in the rain, her hand covered in blood. I had felt something was up as I sat in the downpour watching her apartment from afar. I thought I heard something, but there was nothing when I went to check. When I finally made a round around her apartment, I saw the bathroom window and then realised she had left. I followed her faint scent in this rainfall and it led me to the graveyard. The sight before me had ripped me up. I had picked her up and rushed her to the penthouse. I pushed the door open, making the others jump from the sofa. "Whoa! What the hell?!" Chris exclaimed in alarm. "She was out in the rain." I said, my voice coming out thick. "We need to get her out of those clothes." Lola said quickly. I nodded as I carried her to my room, placing her down and about to remove her jacket when I remembered the memory…
DELSANRA The pain was gone… I felt at ease. Warmth enveloped me and I was at peace. I had never felt so comforted in my life. Was this it? Did I die? My stomach fluttered as I tried to move my heavy eyelids to see where I was. I frowned, cracking them open a little; with a sudden rush, the splitting headache, the pain in my body and bones screamed loudly hit. I flinched. I definitely was not dead. Trying to reach for my head, I realised it was trapped. I opened my eyes and the first thing I saw was the six-pack of a Greek god peeking out from a t-shirt that had ridden up. My heart thundered as I took in the situation, I was all warm and cocooned in the blanket whilst… Rayhan was sitting on top of it asleep. His head was resting against the headboard, his shoulder-length black soft curls falling in front of his face. One of his hands was resting on my head, the other was holding one of my hands captive against his chest. His chest rising and falling st
RAYHAN I smirked as I looked at the menu of a restaurant nearby. "What are you doing, Oh Mighty Alpha?" Chris said slumping onto the couch opposite. I raised an eyebrow at him. Damn, Lola had done a number on him. His cheek was still bruised, although it was fading. It meant she had broken something bad for it not to be healed until now. Well, he deserved it. "This mighty Alpha has found the way to his kittens’ heart." I said. "Oh?" Chris said, now curiously leaning forward. "Diamonds, pink stuff, wait I know, shopping?" Ok, I loved the dude, but he was really going to get killed by Lola. "You know, there’s a lot more to women than materialistic stuff. Don’t let Lola hear you being a prick again." I advised. "I know, but what is it? I really don’t get women." "Really? I would never have guessed." I remarked. "Alright then, tell me what’s the way to our Luna’s heart?" "Food." I smirked confidently
DELSANRA Night had fallen, I had stayed in the room all day. I don’t know why I agreed to his deal. With that look in his eyes, I had not been able to refuse him. He was messing with my mind already. I wish I could have just sneaked out, but I had given my word, and a witch always keeps her word. Although I often wondered why I should follow such rules in the first place, it was just something that was embedded deep within me. Rayhan and the two women had come to ask me about lunch and dinner, but I had pretended to be sleeping and said I wasn’t hungry. Even when Rayhan brought dinner, I had just told him I was not well. Being around him messed with my head, I needed to avoid him at all costs. But now I was hungry, so I kicked off the bedsheet and sat up. It had been pretty warm; I had taken my leggings off earlier, now only wearing his shirt - something I hadn’t been able to remove. I wasn’t sure if it was the quality of the fabric that made
RAYHAN Fuck, the scent of her arousal was breaking every inch of my resolve and self-control. That fucking delicious moan that had left her lips had made me hard. Thank the goddess for baggy pants and tight boxers. I did not want her to see that. Since when was I not able to control myself? I locked the door to the bedroom I was staying in, as she was in mine, and took a deep breath. The image of her startling eyes, her heart pounding… The way her nipples hardened when I kissed her foot... Her sexy long legs that had the perfect thickness on her thighs… I throbbed hard. An image of her naked under me filled my head and I clenched my fist. Fuck, don’t think about her. I wanted her. No, I needed her. How would it feel to be able to kiss those pouty lips of hers? For her to scream out my name as I pounded into her tight little pussy. Fuck… I barely even realised when I pushed my pants down, taking my dick out. It was this or going back out there, and thi
ALEJANDRO Life’s fucking good. That’s the fucking truth. With my nympho, the little fucker, and our princesses that would be here in about seven weeks. I took a drag of my cigarette as I sat in my office chair, my ankles crossed on top of the desk, watching Dante play outside the open patio doors that led to the garden. The cold not bothering him at all. We had made some changes to the house, and now my office was on the ground floor, where I could keep an eye on the fucker if need be. Right now, he was collecting leaves. Kids are weird as fuck. What was he going to do with leaves anyway? "Daddy!" He said suddenly, now frowning at me. I swear the kid was a grumpy little fucker. "What do you want?" "I want juice." He demanded. "And do I look like your fucking nanny?" "No, you daddy fucker." Yeah, he perfected that word too. "You little-" "Seriously, baby? You taught him that." Kiara’s sexy husky v
DELSANRA I couldn’t face him, not after what happened. Did this mate bond really render wolves senseless? There were cases when even mated wolves were treated horrifically by their mates. Especially if the mate was a witch. It was rare, but it happened, and the stories were terrifying. The mate bond was not absolute or there wouldn’t be those who abused their mates. His word refused to leave my mind, or the way he pulled me close. I took a deep breath, feeling the painful tug in my chest as I pulled on my powers without realising. Breathe Del… His touch still lingered on my body, but… I didn’t hate it. It wasn’t the first time I had seen desire in a man’s eyes for me, but unlike those times, it didn’t disgust me. But it should… it should disgust me. I closed my eyes, letting myself fall deep into my past… - (FLASHBACK) "Ah look Dawson, the bitch thought she’d try to look pretty." Amoria laughed. I froze on the s
RAYHAN The moment she grabbed the burger and sat back, making her boobs bounce, I wondered what went through that mind of hers... Her cheeks were flushed and the familiar squeeze of her thighs gave it away… I had seduced enough women to know when I had an effect on them… When I sucked on her thumb, I didn’t miss how her body reacted to me. Fuck, she’s so perfect. A temptation that I was succumbing to, I felt a rush of pleasure go through me as she inhaled sharply, her heart thudding like a thousand beats of a drum. A sudden sound from the TV brought us out of our eye lock and she gasped, yanking her hand away, glaring at me - or trying to. "Don’t behave like an animal." She said quickly, picking up her can. I smirked watching her. She had pushed her sleeves up a little and I could see the runes on her wrists. The urge to take her hand in mine and kiss those marks was strong. I wanted to know if they hurt… I looked away and at the horrible movi
RAYHAN I had been itching to see my kitten all afternoon, but Mom, Ri and Kia refused to let me. "The documents and passports are here… and your stuff is all packed." Rose said to me, holding out an envelope. She was dressed in a green evening gown. "Thanks." I said to her. She gave me a smile before lifting their two-year-old son, Shane, that they had via surrogacy. "Hey kiddo." I said, ruffling his blond locks. He looked a lot like his mummy. Lola came over, wrapping her arms around her mate and kissing her lips. "Rayhan, go get Delsanra, and then both of you make your way outside." Mom said, she was dressed in a dusky blue gown with sequins all over it, with a slit and ruffled sleeves. I was glad as the years went by she returned more to her usual self. Although I know losing Dad was hardest on her and still affected her. "Looking good, Mom." She gave me a smile, "Thank you, ya Hayati." She said softly, cuppi
THREE YEARS LATER… DELSANRA The bell rang signalling the end of my final lecture! This was it; I was done for the year! One more year left and I’d have my degree. I rushed through the hall, a guy from one of my lectures jumped aside to not knock into me, resulting in his books going flying. "Watch it snow!" He shouted "See ya next year, Louis!" I shouted back. "See ya…" He grumbled. Rushing through the open doors that led to the front of the building, I skidded to a stop, smiling as the sun hit my face. My waist-length hair blew around me, and I closed my eyes for a moment, relishing it and the scent of my mate. I opened my eyes; he was always here, ready to take me home. "Causing trouble in the halls again, babe?" Raihana asked. I smiled at her. She looked as good as ever, in leather pants and a tunic, I could see her tiny baby bump. She was already two months along and had another four to go, but the pup was growing w
DELSANRA Three weeks had passed since Papa Raf left us for a better place. The pain of his loss was felt across the entire country. Alphas from all around came to pay their respects. I also realised Rayhan had made a reputation for himself as a dangerous Alpha, one who would defy every law of the council if need be. I knew the king – or as he told me to call him ‘Al or whatever shit I wanted to’, so I settled for King Burrito. He had a lot to deal with, but he had been here for us all. That day he was talking to Mama Mari, Kiara and I had heard the end of it, but we had walked away, leaving them to their moment. They had needed it and both of us had been so happy that it had taken place. Life had changed for us all, Papa Raf was someone who would never be forgotten. Although we had overcome all our troubles, never had we imagined that we’d lose a king in the process. I wanted to blame myself for Papa Raf, but I know it's not what anyone would
ALEJANDRO I made my way back to the mansion, a place that still held Raf’s scent that was steadily fading. The pain that was eating away at me at his loss was fucking suffocating. I won’t lie, I did break down in Kiara’s arms. I wished I hadn’t wasted the fucking past, pushing him away. I wished I had so many more fucking memories and time with him, but the thing was, no matter how much I fucking wanted it, I didn’t. My brother was gone, the fucking angel who kept my sanity from spiralling completely. The silence in the mansion was deafening. Flashes of memories came to the forefront of my mind… Everything he said to me in these very halls, his promises that he kept, but I didn’t believe. His love, that I denied, his worry, that fucking angered me. I sucked my breath in, exhaling sharply. Focus Al, focus. Today I was going to complete the one silent wish that he never uttered; for me and Maria to make amends. We never saw fucki
RAYHAN NO! It was like watching a horror movie from behind a screen, I could do nothing. I was stuck fighting off the wolves, most of our people were down. Only Dad, Chris and I remained, and we were all losing. The spell in the air was poisoning us, I heard Raihana whisper that the spell was done before she collapsed on her knees, coughing up blood. I was finally able to rip Blake to pieces, but just when I thought we had victory... I heard Mom shout. I turned to see Delsanra working on the spell around us, Mom jumped in front of her, shielding her, my heart was in my mouth as I rushed to shield them both from the attack, but I was too far. I saw Raihana raise her hands, ready to cast a spell, but she had no time… Everything was too late… Just then, Dad’s wolf landed before them, seconds before the spell hit him, obliterating him on the spot. The smell of blood filled the air along with Mom's scream, one I would never forget.
DELSANRA "Do not listen to her!" Luna Maria shouted, she was the only one in human form and the only one I could talk to. Shit… "Rayhan wants you to break free!" She shouted, spinning around as she gutted another wolf, they were never-ending. I saw Lola tearing through a few wolves. No, they were right… I could help… I closed my eyes, feeling myself shift, the pain from all the cuts that littered my body healing as flames raged high. I ripped free from the bindings that held me, just as the glowing cage wrapped around the building completely. My focus would be on Elinai and Eldridge, I would kill them, and I would free everyone. "I'm going after the witches!" I shouted, knowing they could hear me even if they couldn’t shift. A growl made me look back, and I smiled as Rayhan’s irritation was clear. He threw Blake's body against the wall, only for Chris to dig his claws into his chest. Although it felt like they w
DELSANRA I opened my eyes, it took me a moment to adjust. The smell of blood that covered the ground… The pain in my body… The flames that surrounded me and the chains that bound me. Something I was used to… Everything came rushing back with full force. My heart pounded. Raihana! Did I hurt her in the fire? Was she ok? I looked around only to see her tied to a post up ahead, unconscious. Luckily, she seemed in a better state than I was. Glancing around, I saw that we were in some abandoned building. My eyes flittered around and I realised I had been here before… a long time ago… I gasped when something hit my back. "She’s awake, keep her down." A voice that I recognised spoke. Reginald? What was he doing here? "We need to do this fast, I don’t trust the Rossi’s" Blake’s deep voice came. My heart hammered, his scent filling my nose. Why hadn’t I smelt him before? The day he brought Raihana’s dress in? I c
DELSANRA It has been a week since the ball, and everything was going great. Rayhan had found a lead on the witch hunter group, and last night he had gone to question his cousin Alpha Zain after finding some information on them too. This morning we learned that he and Alpha Amir had questioned him, and found out that although he wasn’t part of the group, he funded it. Zain refused to give more information, that was not the smart thing to do when it came to someone like Rayhan. Maria was worried, as Rayhan’s anger was well known, and Papa Raf was clearly concerned too. Would Alpha Zain have the answers? Rayhan was adamant that he would know who he was funding. I couldn’t even focus on anything as I stared at the periodic table… I was finally advancing a little to secondary education, but today nothing was helping me focus. My phone beeped and I picked it up, glancing at Papa Raf who was massaging his temples. ‘Want to go out for
RAIHANA "That’s it! Fuck!" I gasped as my orgasm rushed through me, the water from the shower pouring down on us, but all I could focus on was the pleasure he inflicted upon me. Chris, my forever sexy boy. I crashed my lips against his just when he shot his load into me, making me moan. We were breathing hard. He had me pinned against the shower wall, my legs pressed against his side, his hands cupping my ass. Goddess, I would never tire of him… "You’re fucking heaven, princess." He whispered, making me shudder with renewed pleasure. "Love you girl." I smiled. "I love you too." I hugged him tightly, our lips meeting in an enchanting kiss that made the world fade away… - Three hours later, we were dressed, fed and cuddled up on the sofa in Chris’ living room. He currently lived alone, now that his youngest sibling had gone off to university down south. But I knew how much Chris did after his paren
