Kate’s POVMark is still ignoring me. He sure knows how to hold a grudge and all along I thought I was the best at it. I have decided to shake the thoughts away and focus my attention on enjoying the road trip. Karen seemed the most excited, she kept chattering away about the itinerary she had laid out for the number of days we would spend away. As we moved into the bus, I noticed Bianca grumbling about something. She chose not to sit with Lois and came to join Karen and me at the back. I exchanged a glance with Karen and she shrugged in response. “Are you guys ready to get on this trip?” Carl’s excited voice inquired. “We are!” The response was a chorus followed by bursts of laughter. “Our first stop will be the Dark Storm pack. So let’s get on it.” He mused starting the car. Karen stretched out her hand to pinch me. “I hear there is eye candy at the Dark Storm pack.” I turned my lips up. “What sort of candy?” Bianca giggled, shaking her head. “Male candy. They do have good-lo
Kate’s POVMark leaned against the wall with his head thrown to the back like he was thrown into a meditating space while puffing smoke into the air. My wolf purred at how sexy he looked. I cleared my throat to get his attention. He gave me a brief side glance and returned to staring into nothing in particular. “I am trying to get your attention,” I stated the obvious. He only hummed in response. “Mark, can we not act childish please?” “Childish?” He repeated and scoffed. “Kate, I just want to have my smoke in peace. Aren’t you hungry? We might be mo
Kate’s POVMy excuse for not researching much about the road trip was that I had no intention to go and Karen had practically dragged me with her. I realized after a day that the pack picked to arrive at had booming tourist attractions. Leon handed each of us an itinerary of what our days in the Dark Storm pack involved and it was packed with so many activities. Yesterday, we went hiking on their highest mountain which had an amazingly beautiful sight underneath it. Neither Redmoon nor Diamond Pack have mountains to explore or climb. Even if they had, it doesn’t seem likely that I would have thought to explore. We ended up at the beach and it was a party through the night. Bonfire appears like it mi
Mark’s POVEveryone is having fun on this trip, but it seems Kate is the one having the most fun. Whenever I see her, she is either on her phone giggling at a text or smiling a bit too widely at whatever it is Leon says. I actually tried liking Leon, but seeing Kate get too comfortable around him is bothering me. They are both seated around a table near the swimming pool watching something on a phone. Their heads were together like they couldn’t seem to see whatever it was on the phone apart. She always does this, appearing happy with someone else and I am here looking like a moron and wondering when she would get my time.
Kate’s POV“I can’t believe him!” I rambled under my breath, stomping towards my room. Mark has a lot of nerve confronting me after what I saw him doing. Maybe I would have kept my association with Leon minimal out of respect for him. However, it just dawned on me that he doesn’t keep to his words. If he can’t, then it’s of no use to me trying. Such nerve!“Kate?” Karen called out to me as I entered the room. “Who got you angry?” F
Kate’s POV“It is wrong that you are hoarding details. Come on, Kate.” Karen kept poking me from the window. I refused to respond and turned my face to the window. We were getting ready to leave. Leon came by to say goodbye and I had to get into the car quickly to avoid any awkward interaction. He had texted and called all through but there was no response. He must have decided to give up when I refused to respond still. Last night was hectic for me, I couldn’t get any sleep in as I kept thinking hard about how low I was ready to go. That is so not me. I don’t even like Leo
Mark’s POV“They aren’t even familiar with the pack. Why would they go clubbing?” Lois whined as he plopped onto the couch next to me. Carl chuckled. “Don’t worry, your woman is safe. The club is right underneath us in the safety of the hotel. And if you are thinking of going, sit your ass down. They warned that none of us should be there.” I scoffed to myself, taking a swig at the beer in my hand. Like I would want to be there. Kate can do whatever she pleases. I saw her heading out of the hotel last night looking all radiant for Leon. It’s no surprise she looked dejected this morning. Must be missing her man. “What’s with the silence?” Lois asked. “Nothing,” I grumbled in response. They both chuckled at the same time. “What is wrong, Mark?” Carl asked. I heaved, sucking my teeth. “I will never understand what these ladies want. We talked and said we would think through our feelings to be sure we wanted to be together. But is just a necessary formality. We want one another. It
Kate’s POVMy wolf grumbles and a splitting headache had me awake. I let out a yawn and almost gagged from the foul smell that left my mouth. What the hell? What did I eat? Scratching my eyes roughly, I blinked rapidly to get a glimpse of the room I was in. This doesn’t look like my room and where is Karen?I turned my head to the side and almost let out a yell at the sight of Mark seated calmly on the couch staring at me. I shut my eyes tightly trying to grasp the situation. What the hell am I doing in his room? I can’t seem to remember anything. I do remember going to the club with the girls. It will be best to pretend to be asleep until Mark steps out of the room. Moving my body cautiously, I pulled at the covers with my eyes closed. “You might get frustrated if you keep up that act.” His voice bounced through the corners of the room. I gulped at his words moving the cover slightly. “What?” Mark snickered, “You have been awake for the past five minutes. Why you chose to act lik
Kate’s POVA Year and a Half LaterMy fingers sank into his bare back as he plunged into me. I could almost taste him at the tip of my tongue. His strong plan raised my ass cheek enabling him to thrust deeper. Mark grunted in pleasure as I wrapped my legs around his waist urging him to take all of me. His thrust was fast and hard. I was almost out of breath. I moaned loudly at each thrust. Our arousals lay thick in the air. A satisfied scream escaped my lips as he hit me hard and my entire body came undone like a surge of electricity just moved through me. Mark increased his pace and let out a loud groan, nutting inside me before he collapsed next to me panting slowly. I chuckled, caressing his chest with my finger.“How was it?” I asked, kissing his sweaty forehead.He turned to me, smacking my ass. “Magical as always.”“Is that so?” I teased.He smacked me again, his eyes smiling. “Stop being such a tease.”“I love to know that I got you good.” I grinned, causing him to cackle. “
Kate’s POVMy wolf paw thawed through the wet grass. I ran like my life depended on it. Hoping my worries will float away with the wind. My heart thumped really hard like it might leap out of its cage. Thinking through the last conversation i had with Mark which was a month ago. My head feels like it would explode. How he was able to say things like that to me without feeling awful, is so painful.“Stop thinking over it. You will keep hurting yourself.” My wolf said.I halted all of a sudden, falling to the ground helplessly. The tears that I had held back for so long rolled down my face uncontrollably. I wish I could just disappear to somewhere unknown and forget about all these troubles I have gotten into. From the look of things, finding true love might not be a part of my fate. I might be doomed to live by myself with no one to love me right. Learning to be happy with myself seems like the best thing I can do to get out of this. The thoughts are drowning me. Heartbreaks are quite
Mark’s POVI can feel their judgmental eyes on me. I clenched and unclenched my fist hating how she chose to ignore me instead of addressing the accusation. Seeing her today is a mix of emotions. Kate drives me to the edge. I wanted to sweep her off the ground, seeing how exhausted she is. At the same time, i wanted to question her for causing our relationship to hit the rocks. But i did none of that and allowed my anger to take charge.Barrister Alan walked up to me, putting a hand on my shoulder. “Mark, son, I don’t know what just happened. I just hope you will resolve it soon. You know in your depth that they do not make she-wolves like Kate anymore. Make sure your anger is justified.” He made a grunt and excused himself.I sat down, pulling at the root of my hair. I expected Carl to say something, instead, he walked away not sparing me a glance. Lately, he has been quiet. I can’t tell what is going on in his head. I felt a part of my headache. Tears pricked my eyes painfully. I di
Kate’s POV“I wish I didn’t have to come here,” Kate whined to Karen as they got out of the car.The barrister had sent consistent reminders and put calls through to make sure she doesn’t forget how important her presence is. If she had other ways, she would have stayed back. Seeing Mark so soon after their last discussion, has her feeling on the edge.Karen wrapped her arm around me. “You will do just fine, Kate. Don’t let yourself be bothered.”I didn’t say anything as my thoughts kept jumping. My wolf also tried to make me feel calm but I just can’t ignore the anxiety. Does he miss me? Has he been as miserable as I am since things went sour? I wish things would work out between us. I am even willing to look over his cheating. All I want is for us to be back together. But I guess that might not work out as I desire.Alan had asked that we meet at the house. I really wish he would have made it his office. That might ease any form of awkwardness. But I could lean into Karen’s presence
Kate’s POVMy body felt cold when I eventually found the strength to get off the floor. The blood in my limbs must have dried up considering how heavy they were. I went into the bathroom and sat in the bathtub while the water filled up around me. What a day! I don’t think I was this drained and lost when my father died and Dame made me a laughing stock. I crumbled then, but this time it was pure hell. The tears I shed ripped my insides to shreds at every heave. I just couldn’t hold back. Everything I loved was crumbling right in from of me. I guess anyone in my shoes would have felt the same.On second thought, I feel like I deserve it. My greed is the reason I couldn’t let go of Charles and just focus on Mark. I wanted to have a taste of freedom and indulge in a bit of recklessness. It bites me really hard in the butt. It was just a little flirting and a little kiss. All the same, it was wrong of me. Mark has no fault even though he cheated too. But I pushed him to it.I can’t cry an
Author’s POV“He did what?” Lois blurted, spitting out the juice in his mouth.Karen sighed, twirling the glass in her hand. They had returned from the Diamond Pack with Kate looking like her entire world had crashed down on her. One can tell just how unhappy she has become. The sight of Davina in Mark’s shirt with a smug look on her face already gave away the clue that their visit wouldn’t end well. It was hard to keep Kate down from visiting Mark to plead with him. However, she understood her persistence and just had to drop everything she was doing to travel with her.Hearing Mark dismiss Kate because of his own guilt was quite disappointing. Left to her, he was undeserving of her explanation from the start. It seemed too easy for him to move on. Everyone is experiencing a hard time because of him. And it didn’t take him long to dip his dick into another honeypot. Since they arrived, Kate has locked herself up in the room, refusing to talk to anyone. It is quite troubling not knowi
Mark’s POVThe morning sun burned my eyes as I attempted to open them. After struggling for a while, I eventually sat up with my eyes wide open. Letting out a loud yawn, I glanced to my side shocked at the person with me. The memories from last night came back stinging me in the head. I gulped hard. What the hell was I thinking? If I was drunk that would have been a perfect excuse. But I wasn’t. Davina was not drunk too and I remember she kissed me first. Why didn’t I say no to her? Fuck!Easing myself out of the bed, I got dressed quickly and tiptoed out of the room, not sure I had the courage to face her. What would I say? And how will I explain what just happened? After claiming to be in a relationship, I ended up sleeping with Davina with my eyes wide open.Unable to contain my thoughts, I ran out to the woods as fast as my legs could carry me. My wolf appears to be having a good time mocking me. My head aches like I have a hangover. Last night blew my mind. All I could do after r
Mark’s POV“Aren’t you going to answer that?” Marilyn asked handing me a glass of lemonade. I took it from her, mouthing a thank you. Lois is the one calling and I have promised myself to not respond to any calls that come from the Redmoon pack. Not even Karen can talk to me right now. They all knew about the things Kate indulged in and none of them talked her out of it. They must have been having fun fooling me. How I got myself together and returned home is still a mystery. I had nowhere else to go and who to turn to except Marilyn. I arrived last night and remained glued to th
Kate’s POVThe room was silent like there was no one in it. If not for the occasional heavy sighs from Karen and Lois, one wouldn’t think there was life around. I just sat there, feeling empty. Mh wolf had gone quiet and nothing seemed intriguing to me at the moment. All of my insides were worn out. My limbs are so weak, I doubt I would be able to lift a cup or carry my entire body. I wish I got the chance to put an end to Dame’s life. He has been nothing but a pure obstacle in my life. Since I met him, he has made sure to leave a lifetime mark for every chance he gets. I have never totally healed from the pain he caused me. I felt a sharp pain at the back of my neck. My head aches so bad. The
