I slept through the whole afternoon, tired from today's event. Desmond decided to go to any establishment. He even went to speak with a party decorator and even asked for my opinion.I was thinking by that time if he was preparing for Declan's birthday or his nephew, Daniel's birthday but I remembered that was impossible since the birthdays of those two were near the end of the year.I only woke up when I was already in the arms of Desmond and smelled his scent as my... mate again.I didn't know why the Moon Goddess reconnected our mate bond again but I was not happy to learn about this fact."Put me down this instant!" I said, half-embarrassed as he was going upstairs. "People are watching!" I immediately hid my face and buried it in the crook of his neck because I saw people looking on our way.That way, I came to smell the combination of orange, citrus, and cedarwood. With his scent, I could easily distinguish that he was really my mate.Desmond chuckled. "Who cares?" I shivered wh
I spent my whole evening finishing my work.Unfortunately, Desmond was watching me the whole time. He wouldn't remove his gaze away from me. He kept staring at me while I tried my best to concentrate on sewing his trousers."You know what is best to do at this point, Seraphina?" Desmond asked.I tried so hard not to yawn and focused my eyes on the needle I was using. "To sleep, yes," I said, not interested in engaging in conversation with him.He chuckled darkly. "Are you that sleepy?" he asked softly.I didn't answer and just released a sigh. I was too tired not to say anything. All I wanted was to finish this. I felt like I was returning to the same workload back when I was working at Madam Ibanez.Ah, yes. I would be able to finish this tuxedo and would return to that kind of environment soon.I was worried about Sander. I hope he is alright and is cooking his own meal right now. He must have been worried as to why I hadn't arrived home. I looked at the wall clock and saw that it w
"Thank you for allowing me to ride on your back." I curtsied before him. "And also, for treating me for a meal," I added.He transformed to his human form and looked behind which was the town plaza. "Are you certain you can go on your own?" he asked."Yes. I can handle it." I just wanted to stay away from you after making my wolf squirm and purr. I wanted to say that but I halted myself."Alright." He tucked his hands in his pockets. "Go now before I decide to follow you and know where you live." His lips curled up into a smirk.I inhaled sharply and turned my back. I stiffened when a pair of arms wrapped me from behind and smelled Desmond's distinguished scent."You are my mate again. The Moon Goddess is really fating us to be together, seraphim," he whispered darkly. "You are still mine no matter if you rejected me."I clenched my hands as I didn't say anything but I tried to remove his hold from me. "Let me go," I demanded."You are mine, Seraphina. Remember that," he said. His pos
"Cinnamon... More..." I locked his head and pressed his face more to my cunt.Desmond groaned in delight as he kept giving me the gratification he wanted to give me at the same time, the clips on my nipples were giving me a striking pain yet it was pleasurable in many ways.This was it... This was the pleasure I had been looking for. Desmond knew that this was how I must be pleasured unlike the last time that he was being soft on me.I knew that I must halt this idea of fucking with him but my body and my wolf were betraying me to allow Desmond to make us insane than before."Lick me more, cinnamon! Faster!" I demanded when his tongue reached my clit and paid attention to it before he glided down to my opening.Desmond did not fail me as his tongue pleased me more. I felt his fingers entering inside me and curling them. I moaned more. It did not take long for me to reach my peak as I arched my back."Cinnamon..." I kept convulsing when he did not stop licking me, especially on my sens
"Lord Verlice is satisfied with your work so here is your bonus for that," Madam Ibanez said as she scoffed bitterly, bestowing me with the small brown envelope.My face brightened up as I nodded. "Thank you, madam!" I said, feeling delighted. I even bowed my head before her. Then I returned to my workstation."Someone is smiling brightly today." I smiled sheepishly when Niscia teased."Someone also received a bonus today," I teased back.I got to know that she finished the dress Desmond asked her to do. Somehow it made me feel bitter because it meant that Desmond was supposed to give it to someone. That woman was so lucky..."Shall we go out then? Take Sander with you." She nudged me as we took a five-minute break."I have plans for today. Unfortunately. We can go out on this day off if you like." It was fortunate that we had the same day of having a day off on this recent schedule.Our day offs shuffled every two weeks. I was so glad that finally, Niscia and I had the same day that
"So, how should we plan the picnic, Seraphina?" I looked up when Niscia drank some water to drink. I chuckled and put down the needle to take a break for a moment."I told this to Sander yesterday. He said that we can go to Arsenio City. Sierra Lakeside is located there," I said and remembered Sander's words yesterday.Niscia gasped. Her eyes sparkled as she clasped her hands. "Ah, yes! Yes! Sierra Lakeside would be the best place to have a picnic there." She looked getting excited. "It has been a while since I last go to the lake..." she said dreamily."Are you not going to a lake once in a while?" I asked and realized that she and I didn't get much to talk about her life.Niscia was a secretive but open person. I did not know how to put it into words but she was a jolly woman and a talkative, too. Along with my co-workers, she was the only one I had gotten too close to.Niscia shrugged. "Well, I do not have time for that. I have been busy for quite a while.""Busy from what?" I til
While we were having our supper, Desmond did not ask anything about my life seven years that we drifted apart. He only asked what could have gotten me going home so late and if Madam Ibanez was abusing us.I wanted to say that yes, she was abusing us and not paying us very well but I only told him the positive ones because I had a feeling that he was going to take her down if I ever admitted that."How's Daniel?" I asked after we were enveloped with silence.Desmond looked at me before he lowered his head to the meal he was eating. He already had a second bowl of meat stew because he enjoyed it a lot. He even complimented me that he liked my cooking which made me blush."I am already considering Daniel to train as the next Alpha of the Rising Diamond," he said as he played the meat with the spoon he was holding."Oh." I nodded my head. I pursed my lips into a thin line when I almost smiled because if that happened, he wouldn't get to know about Sander. Sander would be safe from the tr
"Wow, Mama! This is beautiful!" Sander exclaimed as he started running towards the Sierra Lakeside and transformed into his little wolf form."Sander!" I groaned and sighed when he couldn't help barking and following the geese.Niscia chuckled. "So, by his age transforming into a wolf form, he has the blood of an Alpha, correct?"I stiffened and realized that Niscia was with me. I turned at her and smiled wryly. "I can explain, Niscia..." I gulped.She shook her head. "No need, Seraphina. If you are that uncomfortable talking about your mate, then I shall not insist on it. I respect your privacy." She smiled gently."Thank you." Niscia was very thoughtful. I thought she would try to pry on me but I was wrong.I was grateful to have her as a friend. She knew how to respect someone's privacy. That was why I was comfortable with her and sometimes when I was ready I would tell her about my life before becoming a seamstress to work with Madam Ibanez."Let's set up the blanket. Shall we?" N
