DELSANRA

He was confusing me. Why did I feel like my words had hurt him? The guilt and regret in those eyes…

I looked away to keep myself composed. Maybe if I just told him, he’d leave.

"Ok... back up a little." I said, placing my hands on his arms.

He really was built… I firmly pushed him back, feeling the muscle under my fingers. His stormy grey eyes met mine and I didn’t miss how his gaze dipped to my lips. That was confusing me too. Surely someone as handsome as him had a line of women waiting for him, not to mention that he stated that earlier.

He finally stepped back but it looked like it had been hard for him to do so.

I took a deep breath,

"How about you go clean up? I’ll make some coffee…" I said.

I just needed a moment. I was relieved when he nodded and walked to the bathroom.

I opened the fridge and prayed I had enough milk for two mugs of coffee. I really needed it after how tonight went. Nope… Oh we

    RAYHAN Her eyes widened, and I knew she was having a hard time believing that. "When you ran into me, I felt it. Your scent… You’re made for me." Ok, maybe throwing that bomb was not the smartest thing to do, but I didn’t want to leave her. Not in this small apartment that wasn’t safe at all. Not to mention, my bathroom was three times bigger than her place. She laughed nervously. Goddess, that sound. It was a breathy, sexy laugh that sent my heart racing. "Yeah, good joke. You’re damn delusional. Now, get out." "I’m not lying. Why else do you think I’m not losing my cool when you insult me?" Shit. Wrong remark. I saw the flash of worry in her eyes, the way her heart hammered and how she balled her fist. "Oh yeah... Apart from your mates, you treat everyone else like trash that you can beat and abuse as and when you wish, right? Yeah, I’ve experienced it all. Now leave before I force you to." She replied coldly.

  • Her Destined Alpha   9. Blatant Dislike

    RAYHAN I’m seriously beginning to wonder if I’m speaking a different language or something. I had just explained to the three of them how I met her. Yeah, Chris went and got the girls too, so here we were sitting as I impatiently kept glancing at the time. I needed to go to her. "So let me sum this up. You went for a walk, your mate ran into your arms, and then you killed some witches. Then she took you home, took care of you, and then told you to get out?" Lola asked, raising an eyebrow. "Why would she do that…?" Rose asked, frowning slightly. "Wait, she’s a human, isn't she?!" Ok, time to tell them… But… I looked at Chris. Both his parents had died in Endora’s attack. I still remember the day he was told, the pain and denial in his eyes before he looked at Dad and asked what duties he wanted him to do first. Taking the spot as Delta first and mourning the loss of his parents second. I suddenly realised, with a cold rush of clarity, that I ne

  • Her Destined Alpha   10. Time To Leave

    DELSANRA Why? Just why did he have to come here to my workplace?! Last night I hadn’t been able to sleep. All I could do was replay everything he said and did… I hated how he confused me, or the way my heart reacted to him. I knew there were rare cases where witches and werewolves had been mated. Most ended in the witch being used and rejected. The very thought made me sick. I had actually thought he’d leave, and not just come back to annoy me. I think it was time to leave. My heart clenched at the thought. Great… Just great, one more person to run from… The way he had attacked the man next to him, the anger I had seen in his eyes… I shuddered. I hated werewolves, I had been a punch-bag for them for long enough… Even after I ran away from Lilly and Alfred’s cottage, I had run into more trouble. Werewolves. When they found out I was a witch… I pushed the memories away, the pain of those memories was crippling me. They had used m

  • Her Destined Alpha   11. Her Memory

    RAYHAN I let him fall to the floor, almost unconscious, with blood dripping from his nose and a busted lip. Fuck, I wanted to kill him. I kicked him hard in his stomach. I stepped back. My mate had a fucked-up life and it was destroying me. Wasn’t this sleazebag meant to be her damn boss? What a shit-face. From the moment this prick called her to his office, I knew something was up. I had followed and listened to the conversation, but she had handled it well. The others had said I needed to leave. Although they had witnessed everything, they didn’t question it, and I was grateful for that. I knew I’d have to be more open about it but now wasn’t the time. I stayed behind to keep a watch on her from across the street as she worked. I now crouched down, grabbing this fuck-face by his collar. He was already out of it, but I slammed him against the car. "Touch my girl again and I swear I will kill you." I didn’t care if he heard or not; the

  • Her Destined Alpha   12. A Few Spells

    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

  • Her Destined Alpha   13. Friends

    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…

  • Her Destined Alpha   14. Fresh Temptation

    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

    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

  • Her Destined Alpha   95. Healing & Family

    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

  • Her Destined Alpha   94. His Mate

    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

  • Her Destined Alpha   93. Make You Proud

    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.

  • Her Destined Alpha   92. Our Strength

    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
