EvaI checked my reflection in the mirror. I was wearing a spaghetti strap green gown with a side slit. The silk was heaven against my skin. The woman in the mirror didn’t look like me at all. She looked rich and classy, something I wasn't. It's amazing how a piece of cloth can change personas. I moved side to side to inspect my whole appearance. “You look stunning,” I heard Cora. I smiled when I saw her standing at the door. She walked in. She was wearing a light maroon gown and looked very graceful in it.“Ready for the night?” she asked me. I nodded, a little nervous. Tonight they were celebrating Moonstone’s merger with their own pack. It will mark the monopoly of Zavion over all the other packs and alphas. "Here, wear it," Cora held her hand out to me. I looked down to notice she was holding a pair of studs. They were lovely. I then glanced up at her, a little hesitance. "How can I..""Just take this already and put them on. They will look lovely with your dress," she urged m
He laced his fingers with mine and braced his other hand on my clothed waist. For some reason, I wasn’t comfortable with our proximity. It felt like I was being unfaithful to my mate even though we had nothing between us. It’s odd. I never feel this way with that mysterious wolf. I, in fact, liked his touch. I had never let anyone touch me before. I kept my reservation to myself and swayed to the music with him. We had to act like a couple in love so I put a huge ass smile on my face and looked at him as if he was my life. It didn’t feel right. Not at all when I could feel my mate’s gaze drillign holes into me. His glare was so forceful that I felt it cutting through the back of my skull. I let Aaron raise our joined hands up and spin me around. While I was spinning, my eyes flickered up and connected with Zavion’s for a briefest of seconds. Instantly, the music faded away, the world around blurred, the air sizzled hot between us. I was hypnotized by his beautiful eyes. His inten
I was returning to my room when a tingling chill squirmed at the base of my spine making me halt instantly. Hair stood on their ends at the back of my neck. I felt like I was being watched.My movement sharp as I turned around to catch whoever was there. My eyes flashed around but I saw no one except for immense darkness, ‘“Who is there?” I kept my voice firm and fearless as I questioned loudly. Absolute silence greeted me in response. Everything looked right but something felt odd. I looked around once more before shrugging it off as my imagination. I barely took a few steps when a dark shadow passed over me. My feet froze. My nerves had started to unsettle now. There was definitely someone here. “Who is it?” I swallowed back my rising panic and asked. No answer. My eyes wide and alert as I looked around. The maids had long retired to their servant quarter. It was only me and the kids in the mansion right now. My heart almost died when I caught the same shadow out of the
And before I could even blink, his mouth crashed down on mine with a brute force. He pulled taut at my hair and devoured my mouth like a hungry beast. His arm snaked around my waist, pulling me closer while he feasted on my lips. Fireworks exploded behind my eyelids when he stroked my tongue with his. Without realising, I started kissing him back. His teeth sinking deep into my lips, his tongue danced with mine, our breath blending along. A dizzying sense of euphoria clouded my mind, every nerve of mine buzzed to life like some live wires. I moaned in pain when he tugged hard on my lower lip. His mouth closed onto mine once more and he begin sucking on my tongue. So hard that I feared he was going to suck my lungs out. His energy was wild and robust just like him. I was overwhelmed. After ravishing my mouth to his liking, he let go of me. My back hit the window with a thud. His eyes remained locked with mine in an intense battle as he retreated while wiping his mouth with the back of
I was avoiding Zavion since that incident. I wasn’t able to meet his eyes. The way I had responded to his touch was embarrassing. For him, I was his brother’s mate. Now I must have become a woman with no morals in his eyes. But then again, he should have also not made a move on me. We both were wrong, I guess. He also appeared to have realised the mistake and didn’t approach me again. I was still not sure why he kissed me that night. It can’t be the matebond as it had ceased to exist the moment I let go of my wolf. Celine was in a deep slumber right now. Honestly, his intensity had rendered me speechless. He reminded me of my mate who had consumed me whole on our first night. His touch had set my skin on fire. Perhaps, it was his wolf that had him lose his control. His alpha instincts are not easy to deceive. They are the sharpest. His wolf might have sensed something odd and was now urging him on. I had to be very careful around him. “Mumma,” I looked up at my girl who was ridin
I looked back at the dress both astounded and confused. Why did he keep it there? Does he want me to choose it? “I got one for you?” Aaron approached me, holding a gray sequin dress with wide straps. The color was strikingly similar to Zavion’s eyes. But yet much less striking than his eyes. I gave him a smile in return and put the gown over the hanger to hold the dress. It was pretty no doubt. “Go, try this,” Aaron insisted and gently guided me towards the trial room with my shoulders. He was acting every bit of a loving mate. No one could guess that he was faking it. I couldn’t help but wonder why he was doing this? What was his reason for not bringing his real mate to his family. I had seen his real mate’s photo on his phone. She is gorgeous. He had said that his family would never agree to their bond but as far as I have gathered, his family is cool. I went inside the trial room and put the dress on. The skirt was A-line and reached till my knee. Fixing the straps, I looked
I combed my fingers through my hair and smoothed a hand down my top. I let out a deep exhale and raised my fist to knock on the door. I paused and bit my lip pondering if I should just drop it and turn around. But then I decided against it and knocked three times on the door. “Come in,” A dart of nervousness ran though my body when I heard the deep rumble of his voice. I momentarily fiddled with the velvet box before grabbing the knob and spinning it open. Silence greeted me as I opened the door and stepped in. He glanced up from his laptop to look at me. My nerves pulled tense. Meeting his eyes is one of the most dangerous challenges I have taken. Whereas I was sure my face was wearing a comical expression, he was all calm and composed, even looked bored as he waited for me to speak. When he arched up his one brow, I realised I was staring at him for far too long. I immediately looked away from him and cleared my throat. Very awkwardly, under his unnerving gaze I lifted the dress
ZavionI swear this irrational attraction is going to be my undoing. I have never craved anyone as much as I crave her between my sheets, moaning and sweating under my body as I fuck her to oblivion. Fuck it! I have been fantasizing about her non-stop since the day I saw her. She has occupied my mind thoroughly. And there is no shit I can do about it. Evangelina- this name was now etched into my brain. But this is wromg. She is forbidden. I was going to claim Esme as my mate in a few days. I shouldn’t crave another woman right now. I am many things. I am a vicious killer, a ruthless monster, a downright sadist but what I am not is a disloyal prick. Even though we are mating for our packs’ sake, I still wanted to bring some honor to our bond. But this woman has me breaking my own rules. I glanced over the gifts she had thrown at the couch. Exhaing a sigh I made my way towards it. I picked the dress and brought it near my nose. I closed my eyes and breathed her scent off the dress.
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
