Alpha Caden’s POVI took a step closer to Aurora, crowding her so she could feel the rage roiling within me. I wasn’t in this mood earlier when I came in and saw her wearing those damned heels. I was fucking aroused then but right now, I want to strangle her. I’m glad the fucking arousal vanished though. I don’t understand why I would feel that for Aurora when I’m not into girls decades younger than I am. “Do you know who you are talking to?” I rasped out the question, barely keeping my anger in check. “Caden Black?” Her sarcastic answer and she had the nerve to tilt her head to the side cockily. I didn’t want to but my right hand slowly started creeping its way to her chest where the coffee she poured on herself is staining. When my hand passed by her naked boob, I grit my teeth but kept going. I’m not touching her for pleasure, the exact opposite. I want her to know who has the power here. So I grasp her tiny delicate neck in one fist and tighten just enough for her to feel the
Aurora’s POVAs the representatives from the Lincoln Group entered the room, a wave of recognition washed over me. It was surreal to realize that the Lincoln mentioned by Mia, the one I had assumed to be a coincidence, was none other than Logan Lincoln himself.Memories flooded back, recalling the first time I had encountered Logan, my multimillionaire client with a love for intricate body art. He loves tattoos! He was a man who spared no expense when it came to adorning his body with the finest designs money could buy.I remembered the awe-inspiring moment when he had entrusted me with the task of tattooing a wide dragon across his wide back, a work that had earned me a cool million dollars. It was a testament to his extravagant tastes and his unwavering commitment to excellence.He wants nothing but perfection and that perfect person is me. But that was just the beginning. Logan's insatiable appetite for unique body art had led to countless commissions over the years, each one more
Alpha Caden’s POV After an hour of intense negotiations, the tension in the room finally began to dissipate as the meeting drew to a close. With a sense of relief washing over me, I watched as Logan Lincoln and I exchanged nods of mutual satisfaction, our agreement reached. A meeting I wanted to call off after the way he stared at Aurora earlier. "Thank you for your cooperation, Mr. Lincoln," I said, extending my hand in gratitude.Logan clasped my hand firmly, a smile tugging at the corners of his lips. "The pleasure is mine, Mr. Black," he replied, his tone sincere. "I look forward to working with you and Pinnacle Capital."The agreement reached, we exchanged final pleasantries before Logan and his representatives made his exit, leaving me to ponder the implications of our newfound partnership. It was a significant step forward for both parties, one that promised to yield great rewards in the days to come.I turned my attention to the dedicated team of employees who had played a c
Alpha Caden’s POV Clad in my tailored suit, I strode purposefully towards the office exit, my movements crisp and decisive. The usual hum of activity that filled the office had dwindled to a mere whisper as my departure caught the attention of those still present, including Mia, who watched with wide eyes, clearly taken aback by my uncharacteristic early exit.I met her gaze briefly, noting the surprise that flickered across her features before I offered a small, knowing smile. It was a rare sight indeed for me to leave the office before closing time, and I could sense the curiosity radiating from Mia as she processed the unexpected turn of events.With a nod of acknowledgment to those still lingering in the office, I made my way towards the exit, the sound of my footsteps echoing through the quiet space. As I passed by Mia, I barely resisted the urge to offer her a subtle wink –I don’t want her reading deep into this after her approach earlier. Instead I offer her a silent acknowl
Aurora’s POV After Logan's departure, a whirlwind of conflicting emotions churned within me, threatening to consume my resolve. The weight of Alpha Caden's dominance hung heavy in the air, suffocating me with the suffocating pressure of my obligations to the pack. With each passing moment, the desire to escape grew stronger, tempting me with the promise of freedom from the constraints of my existence. There is nothing left for me here except bitterness. Lilian will understand if I told her I ran away. As I stood alone in the aftermath of the meeting, a sudden surge of determination coursed through my veins, urging me towards a decision that would change the course of my destiny. With a sense of urgency gnawing at my insides, I made a split-second choice to follow Logan, to chase after the possibility of a life beyond the confines of the pack.Bounding down the hallway in pursuit of Logan's retreating figure, I pushed aside the doubts that threatened to hold me back. What was the wo
Alpha Caden’s POV I woke with a sudden start, my breath coming in ragged gasps, I couldn't shake the feeling of disorientation that washed over me. My eyes darted around the room, seeking reassurance in the familiar surroundings, desperate to confirm that I wasn't back in the study with Aurora once again.The dream had been so vivid, so real, that it left me reeling with a potent mixture of arousal and confusion. I could still feel her presence lingering in the air, her image seared into my mind like a brand. The memory of us together, entwined in passion and sweat, ignited a fire within me that I struggled to contain.But as tempting as it was to give in to the animalistic urges that pulsed through my veins, I knew that I couldn't afford to lose control. I refused to look south, to acknowledge the physical response that threatened to betray my resolve. I couldn't afford to be distracted by base desires, not when there were more pressing matters at hand.The thought of watching the r
Aurora’s POV I sat in the luxurious interior of the jet, the rhythmic hum of the engines providing a steady backdrop to my thoughts, I couldn't shake the lingering remnants of the dream that had plagued my sleep. With a heavy sigh, I glanced across the cabin to where Logan sat, engrossed in his work, his brow furrowed in concentration.Despite my best efforts to focus on the task at hand, the images from the dream kept intruding into my thoughts, taunting me with their vividness and intensity. It wasn’t in his study or I would have said it was a memory. This dream was in his office. The memory of Alpha Caden, his imposing figure and smoldering blue gaze, sent a shiver down my spine, igniting a fire within me that I struggled to contain. Gods, I’m never going to look at his office the same anymore. IF I ever go back there that is. Why would I dream about him, of all people? And why in such an intimate and forbidden manner? The questions swirled in my mind, fueling a sense of frustr
Alpha Caden’s POV The hours passed and Aurora remained absent, a growing sense of unease settled over me like a dark cloud. I refused to entertain the thought that she had run away, but the evidence was becoming increasingly difficult to ignore.I paced the length of the dining room, my mind racing with questions and doubts. If she hadn't returned from work since yesterday, where could she have gone? The possibilities were endless, each one more troubling than the last.Turning to Lilian for answers, I approached the topic with caution, hoping to glean some insight without raising suspicion. Her response only added to my concern; she hadn't heard from Aurora either, a fact that seemed to confirm my worst fears.Next, I sought out Lucas, hoping that he might shed some light on the situation. But his reaction caught me off guard, his bitterness palpable as he spoke of Aurora. They had been best friends before she left, but something had clearly soured their relationship in her absence.
Alpha Caden’s POV Ten Years Later. Her smile illuminated the room, a beacon of warmth that drew me in like a moth to a flame. I watched as she moved gracefully, every motion sending a surge of electricity coursing through my veins. When she stretched against me, her body arched with a sensual grace that left me breathless.I buried my face in her hair, inhaling deeply, savoring the intoxicating scent that enveloped me. Her laughter was like music to my ears, a sweet melody that echoed in the depths of my soul. "I need to send a thank-you note to the company that makes my shampoo," she teased."It's not your shampoo that smells so good," I replied, my voice husky with desire. "It's you. You're delicious."

Each touch sent sparks flying, igniting a fire that burned hotter with each passing momen
Aurora’s POV The room was filled with the beeping of monitors and the quiet hum of medical equipment. I lay on the hospital bed, sweat trickling down my forehead, every muscle in my body straining with the effort of bringing new life into the world. Caden was beside me, his strong hand gripping mine, his presence a steady anchor amidst the storm of labor.“You’re doing amazing,” he whispered, his voice low and soothing. “I’m right here with you.”I focused on his eyes, drawing strength from the love and determination I saw there. With each contraction, I pushed with all my might, the pain intense but the goal in sight. Time seemed to blur, each moment stretching out endlessly and yet passing in a heartbeat.The doctor’s voice broke through the haze. “I can see the head. One more big push, Aurora. You can do this.”With a final, desperate effort, I bore down, feeling a rush of relief as the first baby emerged into the world. A lusty cry filled the room, and tears sprang to my eyes.
Third Person POVAfter the tension of the night eased, Lilian and Caleb found themselves tangled in each other’s arms on the bed. Caleb held her close, his warmth and steady heartbeat lulling her into a sense of safety she hadn’t felt in a long time. The bond between them was undeniable, and despite the confusion and complications, there was a deep sense of rightness in being together.Caleb whispered soothing words into her ear, his voice a balm to her frayed nerves. Slowly, Lilian's eyes grew heavy, and she drifted off to sleep, cocooned in his embrace. Caleb watched her for a while, his fingers gently tracing patterns on her back, until he too succumbed to the pull of slumber.They slept deeply, their bodies and souls finding solace in each other’s presence. As the first light of dawn filtered through the curtains, Caleb stirred. He looked down at Lilian, her features softened in sleep, and felt a surge of protectiveness and love.

Her wolf paced restlessly within her, agitated and yearning. She turned over, trying to find a comfortable position, but it was no use. The bond she felt with Caleb was like a persistent itch she couldn't scratch, a need that gnawed at her insides.With a frustrated sigh, she threw back the covers and got out of bed. The cold floorboards against her feet did nothing to soothe her restless spirit. She wrapped a shawl around her shoulders and quietly slipped out of her room, the moonlight casting soft shadows in the dimly lit corridor.Her steps were silent as she made her way through the palace halls, the silence of the night amplifying the sound of her own heartbeat. She knew where she was going. There was only one place she could go. She needed to see Caleb. To feel his presence. To understand what had happened between them.
Aurora’s POV I found Caden pacing in his study, his face a mask of anger and frustration. His twin brother and his daughter—how could things have spiraled out of control so quickly? I could feel the tension radiating from him as I approached, my heart aching for him."Caden," I called softly, but he didn't stop pacing.I moved closer, gently reaching out to touch his arm. "Caden, please. Sit down. Let's talk."He halted, looking at me with stormy eyes. "Fox, you don't understand. My own brother... with my daughter. How could he do this? How could she?"I guided him to the couch, my touch gentle but firm. "I know you're angry. But getting worked up like this won't solve anything."He resisted at first, but I coaxed him with soft touches, my fingers brushing his arm, then his cheek. I leaned in, pressing a gentle kiss to his lips. Slowly, his rigid posture began to soften. He sighed heavily and allowed me to lead him to sit down.As he sat, I settled myself on his lap, facing him. "Cad
Third Person POVLilian sat on the edge of her bed, the room still reeling from the emotional storm that had just passed. Her eyes were red and puffy from crying, her body wrapped in the sheets that had witnessed the chaos. She felt hollow, her mind a swirl of confusion and heartache.The door creaked open, and Aurora stepped in quietly, her expression filled with concern. She crossed the room in a few quick strides and wrapped her arms around Lilian, holding her tightly. Lilian stiffened at first, then melted into the embrace, the dam of her emotions breaking once more.Aurora stroked her hair gently. "Lilian, I'm here.It's okay. Let it all out."Lilian clung to Aurora, her sobs coming hard and fast. "I felt it, Aurora. I felt the bond. We're truly mates, and I think I already like him. I feel like I can't live without him.

Third Person POVCaden approached Lilian's bedroom with a heavy heart, ready to explain everything to his daughter. The events of the past week had been tumultuous, and he needed her to understand why he hadn’t told her about him and Aurora. But as he reached for the door, something felt off. The door was slightly ajar, and the scent of sweat and sex hung thick in the air.Pushing the door open, Caden’s eyes widened in shock at the sight before him. Lilian was in bed, naked and tangled in sheets, with a man beside her. His heart dropped when he recognized the man—it was Caleb, his twin brother. Rage ignited within him like a wildfire."You son of a bitch!" Caden roared, storming into the room.Caleb barely had time to react before Caden's fist connected with his jaw, sending him reeling back onto the bed. Lilian screamed, pulling the sheets up to cover herself as the brothers clashed violently."What the hell are you doing?" Caleb shouted, scrambling to defend himself as Caden swung
Third Person POV Caleb rises to his knees, rips open the zipper on his trousers, and fists his cock in his hand.Lilian stares at it with wide eyes, her hammering heart skipping a beat, then starting up again, beating even faster. Thick and veined, the shaft juts out proudly from his fist. The crown is fat and red, the slit on top glistening with a drop of wetness.His cock is massive, almost intimidating in size. "That look on your face is a bloody nice compliment," he growls. Then he positions himself between her spread thighs, sliding the head up and down through her pussy lips, wetting it.Lilian gasps, managing a breathy, "Condom?""Wasn't planning on having sex today," he says through gritted teeth, staring down into her wide eyes. "Still time to say no, Lilian."She's so turned on, she can barely think. "You said you were clean?""Aye. I promise.""Then fuck me, Caleb. And don't you dare hold anything back. I want everything you have to give me."His grin looks feral. With a s
Third Person POVDelirious, her eyes rolling back in her head, Lilian gasped, “What the hell is happening?” Maybe she is drunk. “Your mate is fingering your gorgeous wet cunt, that’s what,” Caleb growled, his voice dripping with lust.“Goddess! Caleb!” she cried out, her body trembling.“Aye, lass. Say my name just like that when you come,” he breathed, his accent thick and intoxicating.Rocking his hips into her so his erection was pressed right up against her hip, he kissed a path down her neck to her chest, then licked at her cleavage, dipping his tongue into the cleft between her breasts. When she groaned again, he lightly bit down on the swell of one breast.“I need to taste every inch of you,” he whispered, his voice dark and commanding. “I need to bite every perfect part of your skin. I want to fuck you and spank you and make you take my cock down your throat. I want you to tell me every filthy thing you want me to do to you, starting right fucking now.”He pulled his fingers
