Slowly and cautiously, I turned around and met with a pair of silver eyes. My mouth went dry and blood ran cold in my veins. Those eyes were not humans’. They were of a wolf. The wolf was massive and his furs were concealed by the haze of night. All I could see was his orbs which glittered like fireballs in the midnight sky. Molten lava in hue. The color of danger. But unlike the fireballs, they possessed no warmth, only a cold bloodlust. I backed a step away and the wolf mimicked my action and took a step forward. He was going to hunt me down. My terror swelled. I spun around and started running in the opposite direction. The wolf growled fiercely and started chasing me. Penny began to sob. I had no time to calm her down. I continued to run, hearing my death chasing me relentlessly. I purposefully took a narrow path that would slow that beast down a little. But soon he was gaining on me. I knew I cannot purchase him for long so I decided to do something I didn’t think I would ever
“Ma’am?” a voice broke me away from my trance. I looked to see a man rushing towards me. “Are you okay?” he touched my shoulder and quizzed. I nodded my head at him, still a little dazed by my encounter with that beast. “Can you stand?” he asked, worried. He held out his hand for me. I took it and tried to stand on my feet. My legs were still wobbly, not due to fear but due to all the thrill and lust that mysterious wolf had drilled inside me. I still managed to stand though. I pulled my nightie closer around my chest to cover my bra. Damn! I could still feel the wetness of his spit on my nipples. I spied a glance at the man and wondered if he had caught on my arousal. But by the look of him, it didn’t seem like it. Perhaps, he was a human. Penny. “Where is Penny? Is she safe?” I asked, totally forgotten about the wolf now. My stomach in a knot. “She is safe and at home, ma’am. She is the one who reached us and told us about you,” the man explained to me. I heaved a sigh of relie
His eyes beckoned me to open the door and come to him. They were pulling me in a vortex of desire. Coaxing me to surrender to my wants. Overwhelmed, I shut the door in his face. This was wrong. All these unwanted emotions were messing with my head. I was sex-deprrived for so long that I had started getting wet by an animal. If he really wants me, he should reveal his human form. I suppressed my urge to go out and sat down on the edge of my bed. I fisted the bedsheet and closed my eyes in an attempt to stifle my desire. I was sure he could smell my arousal even from there. I could sense him still pacing outside my door. The whole night we both waited. He waited for me to come out and I waited for him to leave. He growled a few times to let me know he was still waiting outside. The night felt so long and torturous with us on either side of the door. He eventually left when the sun rose. The next day went as usual. Penny had already gotten comfortable with her new lifestyle. She was b
The beast raised his head. Our eyes locked in like magnets. Ocean against fire. The sun paled in comparison to the hue of his eyes. Stunning. I wanted to measure the depth of his burning pools. Get lost in his infernal world. He only stared at me as if I was some puzzle he wasn’t able to figure out. Intrigue? Was he here to satisfy his intrigue? “Shift,” I added in a slightly quivering voice. I don’t know where I got this confidence from? Perhaps, my curiosity took over my reasons. I was aching to see the person who had brought me so much pleasure. I wanted to know about him. Wanted to know who he was. Is he a rogue or a warrior? Just who is he? It seemed my beast wasn’t used to hearing commands nor he knew how to obey them. He retreated from over me like clouds do after drowning the ground, turned around and raced off. I could only watch him go. Once again dazed and intrigued. His disappearance brought an onslaught of questions. Just what I had landed myself into? Why am I feel
“This is wrong. We shouldn’t do this,” I whispered. My beast tensed up. He barked a growl of disapproval and stalked towards me. I sprung to my feet while shaking my head at him. How can I want him to mark me? This was against Goddess’ rule. In fact, everything we did and were doing was against Goddess’ rule.Before he could reach me, I turned around and ran off. I ran, feeling tears flying down my eyes. It wasn’t only about me. It was about my kid too. My world wasn’t only mine any longer.My attraction was instant with this beast. It grew rapidly like wildfire, consuming me whole. He unlocked all my repressed desire with just one stroke of his tongue. I was even ready to bear his mark. I opened the door and got inside my room. I closed my door shut and leaned against it. I closed my eyes and attempted to steady my chaotic breath. It felt like there was an invisible chain between us, pulling me relentlessly towards him. I was fighting it so hard but my willpower was no match to my
I chewed the inside of my cheek while staring at his held out hand as though it was going to shoot bullets at me. Would it tingle if I touched him? I will be done for if it did. “Eva,” Aaron prompted, bringing me from my inner debate. I looked over at Aaron and then at his brother who was already eyeing me intently. I clenched unclenched my hand before slowly lifting and eventually slipping it into his hand. My heart had legit stopped for a second. Ths rub patches of his palm slid against the softness of my skin. His giant hand clasped mine in a firm grip, conveying his authority and dominance over all of us. Thankfully, it didn’t tingle. But my heart did miss a beat. That hand had killed many but all I felt was a strange sense of comfort. His strong grip spoke of tenacity. He knew how to hold onto something. He glanced down at our joined hands and stared at it with slightly dipped brows. It seemed he was anticipating something. Tingles? Does he know? I pulled away a moment late
I avoided coming in front of Zavion until I couldn’t. Tonight, Cora wanted to have a proper family dinner and so she personally invited me to eat with them. I, of course, was reluctant but at the same time didn’t have the heart to say no to this nice woman who had a heart of gold and dampen her spirit. I wore my blue gown to match with Aaron’s blue attire. I decided to leave my hair open and put on minimum makeup. A part of me wanted to back out of the agreement and fled like I always do but that would be very selfish of me. Aaron had placed his trust on me and I didn’t want to disappoint him. He didn't tell me much but I sort of had sensed that he really needed me to do this. Aaron was on time to get me from my room. I placed a good night kiss on my sleeping beauty’s forehead before getting out with Aaron.“Brother has the eyes of a hawk. If we manage to convince him, we will be fine,” Aaron explained to me as we made our way towards the dining hall. “You are scaring me with all
The weather was lovely today. Nightshades were situated in a valley and one could see mountains from the comfort of their home. The place was scenic. I was in the garden with the kids as they played around. Adam and Penny were playing chase as I strolled around the garden to shed the extra weight on my stomach. That is the best I could do in the name of exercise. I once had a flat flawless stomach, small boobs, narrow hips. But now after Penny’s birth, I have stretch marks on my slightly rounded belly, my boobs are bigger and my hips wider. But you know what, I love these stretch marks. I wear them as a badge for they have come from something very beautiful. Penny is the best thing that has ever happened to me. She is my reason for living. And I thank the Moon goddess for her and I thank him too. He has given me the best gift of my life. He unknowingly had made my life so worth living. “Mumma, spin Adam in the air,” my little one came sprinting towards me with Adam. Adam and Penny w
EVANGELINATHREE MONTHS LATERThis is how it must feel like to have a Happy Ever After. To have a happy ending is a blessing and I am grateful to have it. I feel wholesome and so happy. I cannot thank Moon Goddess enough for choosing him for me. I always wanted a mate who will love me unconditionally. Someone who will fill my life with love and happiness. Never imagined Goddess will fulfill my wish. Zavion changed my life and turned it into an absolute fairytale. He takes care of me and fulfills all my desires as they are his own. I am still trying to settle into my new position as Luna and I would be lying if I said it's a cakewalk. It is not. I am watched and judged all the time. I fail too. It took me a whole week only to learn fighting stances. It's difficult. Much more difficult than I had expected it to be. However, submitting is not an option for me. I want to become skillful. I want to become worthy of Zavion. "Are you fantasizing about me?" his heart-soothing voice hit my ea
THIRD POV"Where is she?" Aaron hollered thunderously in the hall. His bloodshot eyes were clouded with madness. His booming voice bounced off the lofty walls, prompting members to rush out in a state of alarm. "What happened?" Cora enquired when she noticed her youngest's chaotic state. Ron power-walked towards her and held her shoulders. "Where is she, mom?" he demanded angrily with an undertone of desperation. Cora, clueless glanced over Nora who looked just as confused. She shifted her gaze back to her son who seemed to be on the verge of losing his control. "Who?" Cora questioned."Sylvia. She is gone," he told her. A hint of pain accompanied his tone. Cora's eyes widened in shock."How?" she asked, still shocked. Ron released her and turned around to look at other family members. His enraged eyes swept around the hall, taking in everyone. "Who helped her leave?" he growled like a wounded lion. Everyone was shocked to see this side of his. Ron was never the type to hold ange
SYLVIAHis tongue rolled inside me, eliciting a gentle sigh straight from my bosoms. I reciprocated, greedy for more and more of him. I wanted to drown myself in his kisses and touch. I was aware of the consequences. He was drunk and might not remember anything of it come tomorrow. But..but I wasn't able to move away. I let him hold me by my waist. I let him pull me on his lap and invade my mouth completely. How could I not? Every inch of mine was yearning for his touch. I felt alive again as he squeezed and kneaded me. He grabbed a fistful of my hair and deepened our kiss. I moaned in his mouth, relishing his dominating side. My hands of their own begin fumbling with the buttons of his shirt. I needed him inside me at this very moment. I needed him to fill me up. Before I could undo his last button, he threw me on the bed. I blinked at him as he crawled over me, his eyes never straying from mine.His orbs were caught in the blazes of lust, his expression was of a feral animal starvi
EVANGELINAI heard him lashing out in the phone from the door. He sounded furious. From what I gathered, Ron had marked Sylvia. The news had left me just as shocked and worried for the woman. I should be the last person to sympathize with her after what she did. But try as I may I cannot forget the sorrow I had witnessed in her eyes when we met the last time. She had realized her mistake. Punishing her more will only batter her already torn soul. "I don't care why you did it, Ron but don't you forget she is a Kessler now. If you harmed that girl unnecessarily. You will have to face my wrath," Zavion warned Ron in a serious tone. Pride swells in my heart. Zavion had no fondness for Sylvia but he was also not the type to sit on the fence when his family is being persecuted. Sylvia was a family now.We honestly had a long discussion about her before he decided her punishment. I tried to make him see her perspective. Being a mother, I should hate her the most but I don't. What she did wa
AaronHer soft snores rang through the room all night long. How did she manage to fall asleep on the cold, hard floor is beyond me. I wish I could say I slept as well as her but that would be a big fat lie. Sleep had escaped me. I just tossed and turned in the bed, struggling to not think about her. Not long ago, she used to sleep here with me. We would cuddle all night long. So different from where we were today. She was sleeping so peacefully and I couldn't help but feel bitter about it. Does she not miss my body next to hers? How easy it was to fall asleep for her without me. I tried to sleep but I just couldn't. My wolf and my body were urging me to carry her back to my bed and cuddle with her but I denied it. Never in this lifetime, I was going to sleep with her in one bed again. In the morning when I got up from my bed, she was still sleeping. As though she had not slept her entire life. I glared at her, contemplating pouring a bucket of cold water on her. I was already irrita
AARON"Why did you do this?" Mom demanded, looking furious. I knew this was coming. Everyone was looking at me waiting for an answer. Why did I do this? To teach her a good lesson."She is my mate. I can mark her if I want to," I replied dryly. My mother's gaze flickered to the unconscious Sylvia in my arms before backing up to my face. She looked unconvinced. "You have marked her to make her life miserable," Mom corrected me. I clenched my jaw. "Alpha has banished her. What more do you want?" Nora sounded equally mad. A scowl was plastered across her face, her eyes spitting fire at me. Everyone was mad at me. I had no idea why were they all defending this ungrateful betrayer."I will not have more discussion about it," I gritted out and stormed off to my room. I felt their eyes stabbing my back as I power-walked toward my room. I glanced down at her. She looked lifeless. The blood was trickling down her neck in a thin line where I had marked her, I didn't bother to seal it back. I
ZAVIONI let my mouth trail over her delicate belly. The warmth of my breath raising goosebumps all over her silky, rosy-white skin. Seeing her body's response to my touch pleases me to no end. I love how she shivers involuntarily every time I brush my lips against her flat tummy. It's too flat for my liking. I was going to fill it up with my baby. The thought was followed by the painful memories of Eva's miscarriage. The incident inflicted deep pain on both of us. She acts fine but I know she is still reeling from that. I have caught her crying alone a few times. She never cries in front of me. Perhaps, because she doesn't want to stress me out. I never leave a chance to let her know what an amazing person is. I love the way she looks but what has me on my knees for her is the way she is; So beautiful, so amazing. But she was getting better now. Healing day by day. This vacation was doing her good. We were in bed since morning, too lazy to get out and too much in love to lay still.
SylviaHe wants me dead. Night flew by but I was still stuck in that moment. I thought him hating me would hurt me the most but him wanting me dead just felt even worse. It still hurts so bad. It was like thousand scorching needles were constantly being jabbed into my heart. The pain was unbearable. He will never forgive me, let alone love me. He wants me dead and I want the same now. What's the point of living without him anyway. It was clear he wasn't going to love me ever again, what will I do with a life that won't have him in it? I hoped Zavion would give me a death sentence. I hoped he would give me the most miserable death so that Aaron feels at ease. If my death gives him happiness, he will get it. My stomach lurched at this point and I crouched forward to puke. I retched but nothing came out. I had already committed a few times since last night. My cell and I were stinking of my vomit and piss. I was at my worst. I slumped against the wall and closed my eyes. My head was sp
DIMITRYI watched her from the shadow as she talked away with Nora. They were perched in the front porch of mansion. Her read head bobbing adorably as she carried out the conversation with a hint of enthusiasm. They were talking about ice creams. I smiled, noting my mate has a thing for ice cream. I've been trying to get closer to her but she always shoots me down. She looks so comfortable every time I try to engage in a conversation that I end up dropping it.I don't know why she was acting so distant. Does she not know I am her mate? Does she not like me? The thought was scary. I was never keen on finding my mate. In fact unpopular opinion but I believed that having a mate would be a hassle for my carefree life. I loved swimming in pussies and one wouldn't be enough to satisfy me. But my thoughts took a drastic turn when I locked eyes with her. At first, I didn't realize she was my mate as I couldn't smell her scent due to the cold. But the attraction I felt for her was instant. She
