Hi! I am the author of Rejecting to be His Luna Queen, Mr. Huntington's Secret, and The Rogue Alpha Reverses the Time. I would appreciate it if you would give this book a Gem, if you like this story. ✨
"What on earth are you doing here, Desmond?" I asked in my sturdy tone. But I panicked when he locked the door. "H-How did you manage to come inside my flat?" My voice quivered in nervousness. I knew I locked that door. How on earth did he open that? Desmond smiled. Not a bona fide and genuine one. But a smile that would send chills down my spine. "I have come here to get you and our... little Sander, seraphim," he said in his dark hoarse voice as he took strides towards my direction. I held my breath, trying not to react when he called me on his endearment to me as my heart suddenly sank when he knew about our son's name. I scoffed, smiling bitterly. "What the hell are you talking about?" I asked, feigning ignorance. There was no way he could know that we had offspring. I knew I hid Sander away to avoid meeting his father. I did my best to not allow that. His smile turned into a smirk, ceasing a few meters away from me. "Ah, so, is this one of your teasing games like you used to
"Seraphina, allow me to explain please..." Desmond pleaded as we were sauntering our way to our chamber after he came back from attending the bachelor's party of Count Jacob Urba. "It's not what you think—" I silenced him by slapping my mate who was also my husband. "You dare to explain when I already caught you?" I asked sweetly. Desmond's face had gone color seeing how cold I was right now even though I was smiling brightly. I could feel the emotions he felt right now and so was he because we both marked each other. He was feeling lost and frightened by the way I was acting. I knew he could feel how hurt I was right now. I smirked. "That's right. Shut the hell up." When I arrived at our chamber, my heart jumped out of my ribcage as I felt Desmond's pair of arms wrapped around me from behind. Then I felt his face buried in my hair. That made my heart ache. Tears suddenly cascaded down my cheeks, feeling in pain. My wolf and I were both howling in pain. "Seraphim... I have hurt y
"Now, explain," I urged him as we went to his study room and sat in his valuable chair where he usually sat.Desmond creased his forehead. "Seraphim, do we really have to argue about this? This is just a trivial matter." He shrugged and looked away to get a book on the bookshelves.That made my blood boil. "Trivial matter?" I slammed the desk, not making him flinch at it. "What an absurd statement! How can you return to your old self?! What on earth is happening to you?!"Desmond approached me and was about to hold my face but I immediately distanced myself from him and shivered in disgust upon remembering what happened weeks ago. That way, I saw the pain registered in his eyes as he lowered his hand.He sighed. "You are avoiding me whenever I would dare to even touch or hold you," he pointed out.I averted my gaze, feeling guilty at that point. I tried my best not to avoid it but my body quickly made me move away from him.I already guessed it was my wolf's will. Until now, she could
He knew...Desmond knew that I was getting irritated at Hazel's presence ever since the day I arrived here in his pack. I was very unhappy when I saw her getting to stick with him even though from the time Desmond and I met, I hadn't accepted him as my mate."What business did she have to do here, cinnamon?" I asked when I poured him some tea in his cup. Even though I knew that she presented herself as proper etiquette, I still wanted to know what she did. I wanted it to come from Desmond.After I bestowed him his tea, Desmond guided my waist to have me sit on his lap before he wrapped his arms around my waist causing my heart to race rapidly. Especially when I came to smell his alluring scent of the combination of citrus, orange, and cedarwood.He smelled exotic to me. And I found it attractive.He planted a soft kiss on my shoulder before he answered, "She greeted me and told me that she would stay at Harvey's manor for two weeks. She said that she is looking forward to seeing me?"
Today was the cotton harvest season here in the Rising Diamond pack.It was a fruitful year again because we got to harvest more cotton this year. Cotton was one of the main agricultural products of the Sowinski Kingdom. We sold and distributed them to the cotton fabric manufacturers here from our local area. Sometimes, we were exporting them to the three different kingdoms called Estasia Eglaria Kingdom, Yuanzhong Kingdom, and Waevalon Kingdom.I giggled as soon as I saw Desmond joining with the fellow men. He had a huge frown on his face seeing that he really didn't like harvesting cotton because it annoyed him when some of the strands of the cotton stuck to his clothes.'It seems you are enjoying harvesting, cinnamon,' I mind linked him while chuckling.Desmond looked for me in the crowds and spotted me. He playfully rolled his eyes. 'I cannot believe I have to do this every year just to impress our pack members,' he mind linked back.'Come. I'll wipe your forehead, cinnamon.' I wa
"Seraphim, are you alright?"I snapped back. "Huh?" I blinked and looked at Desmond who was tilting his head, looking at me. "Are you saying something?"He creased his forehead before he sighed. "I am asking you if the food is to your liking. You haven't touched it. Isn't appetizing for you? Shall we change to a different restaurant?" he asked. There was a concerned expression on his face.I shook my head as I looked down at my food. He was right. I haven't touched it. "I don't have an appetite right now, cinnamon." I forced a smile as I sighed."Is there... something wrong?" Desmond asked, hesitant as he took my hand.I glanced down at his hand. I secretly gnashed my teeth. I almost smiled bitterly before I put up my real smile. "No, cinnamon. We have been eating a lot for the past two days so I think I am still full. You know what I mean..."We had arrived at the capital two days ago to attend the meeting with Alpha King Azarius. Since we arrived there, the palace never failed to pr
"Seraphina, grab me some electric blue taffeta, will you?" I nodded my head as I went to the shelves for fabrics where they were arranged by fabric type and by color. Then I took the electric blue taffeta and bestowed the fabric to Nicia who was busy hand sewing a new cicada gown ordered by Lady Helga. I returned to my seat to finish the bonnet matching the ball gown for Lady Helga. Nicia and I were the ones handling this while my other fellow seamstresses were busy dealing with the new customers from the noble ladies. I took the needle and black laces to sew it to the brim of the blue hat. "Are you going to stay late again, Nicia?" I asked when I continued sewing. Nicia glanced at me. "Probably. It is not as if we have a choice. We didn't even have a break for work, Seraphina." She grinned. I chuckled, huffing. "You are right." But I sighed one more time. "I do not know what to explain again to Sander if I come home late and he is waiting for me again." "If only Madam Ibanez wa
I woke up the next morning having Sander, not in my arms. I panicked and got up from the single bed where we both slept."Sander?" I went to the dining room to see brown-colored bread, made from barley flour with rye, on the table. Then I heard a hissing sound coming from a pan and saw Sander's small back and messy golden hair locks inherited from mine. "Sander..." I called when I found out that he was cooking.My son named Sander stiffened before he turned around and smiled. "Good morning, Mama!" He instantly hugged me.I hugged him so tight and carried him in my arms. "You're cooking for Mama again, little man." I checked what he was cooking and saw that he was cooking some salmon. Upon finding it out, I couldn't help kissing his forehead as I felt a little bad that he was doing this for me. I must be the one who must do this to him but it turned out to be otherwise."I woke up early, Mama, to catch a salmon in the river for our morning meal!" He beamed.I lifted him down and knelt
