Elena povHe let go of my lips and takes a sniff on my shoulder, wondering what he will ask of me for her freedom."It's a deal! Now get dressed and come down to the kitchen, new underwear and a pair of your pants are in my closet," he says and lets me go."Okay!" I say and don't waste any time before turning around to walk away and head over to his closet, hearing the door open and closing when I'm in his closet. Finding my pants and underwear I start to take them on, before looking for a shirt I can use.Seeing one of his hoodies I can't resist taking it down and taking a big inhale on it, his scent is strong on it and I want that one. He said I should take a shirt from his closet I don't see a difference in taking a hoodie instead.Pulling it over my head his scent is all around me and I instantly relax a bit, if I could bath in his scent I would.When I'm done dressed I start to head out of the room and walk down the hallway before heading down the stairs.I never thought I would
Elena povHe carries me out of the kitchen and down the hallway, he stops right in front of his office door before he takes his hand to the door handle and pushes the door open.My eyes instantly fall on the painting and I can't help the shiver that runs down my spine at the sight of the yellow eyes. I see Aziel turn his head towards the painting when he walks inside with me.I have the question on my tongue to ask him who it is on the painting but push the thought away, I know if I ask him about it there will probably come more questions from him.He walks over to his office desk with me before he places me down on my feet, why are we here?I see him walk around his office desk and pull a drawer out, I can't help but feel anxious about what this is all about when he pulls something out and place it on his desk. My heart almost stops beating when I see what it is, my letter!Taking a step back I try to get my raising heart to beat normally again, he found it in my jacket!How can I ev
Elena povLooking at Sam in shock where she stands in the hallway with one of Aziel's men by the side, she has the biggest smile on her lips and the man is holding a box in his hand."What do you mean by using my thighs as earmuffs?" I have to ask when I don't understand. Hearing Aziel chuckle behind me when he pulls me flat against him."if you let me take you up to the bedroom I can show you what she means!" he says in a husky voice next to my ear and that makes me connect the dots. I start to blush at the thought when he places his hand on my cheek and turns my head to the side."your even more tempting when you blush!" he says and pecks my lips."by the sight of it, you know exactly what I mean!" I hear Sam say and laugh for a moment, it doesn't help my blushing cheeks."Now get away from my girl, you will have to learn and share!" I hear Sam say when Aziel pecks my lips again."Only a moment then she is mine again!" he says and releases me from his grip around me. Turning my head
Elena povHe walks over to where I stand and place his arm around my waist."I bet they will be occupied for a while!" he says and starts to walk with me over to the table."Who was the man? I have seen him before" I ask him when he places me down in his lap and pull me close to him."That's Grayson and he is my Gamma. Sam is his perfect mate, he needs a headstrong woman to put him in place!" he says and chuckles. He leans forward and places a cup of coffee in front of me."Are you sure they will hit it off?" I ask when he starts to laugh"I know they will!" he only states and moves his cup to the side."you know I can sit on my own chair!" I try to argue with him when he turns me in his lap and places my legs on his side instead."yes I know, but I want you close!" he says and pulls the box the man brought here with him, he opens the top and places the box in my lap. Looking down I see several cupcakes with frosting and some chocolate-dipped strawberries turning my head and look at h
Aziel pov Her claws are digging into my arm and it's painful, beyond what I have ever felt before when I've got hurt. Looking at her face she is in a tremendous amount of pain and I know she isn't ready to shift yet, I have no other option but to try to calm her wolf down in the only way I know of. Leaning forward I pick her up in my arms and place her head on my chest before I lean down to her shoulder and let my canines slip out. Hear her cry out in pain when I feel her tears through my shirt. "I'm sorry honey!" I say before I bite into her shoulder hard and let my mark subdue her wolf, feeling her go slack in my arms I retract my canines and lap over to bite to help it heal. "What happened?" I hear Tobias ask when I lift my head and look down on my little mate, she is unconscious and I hope it won't be for too long. "her wolf is strong and wants to force the shift before it's time, I haven't seen it before! My wolf is stronger than hers and that's why I can subdue her!" I say
Elena povWaking up I snap my eyes open and look right at the ceiling, trying to understand where I am and what happened when I suddenly remember hurting Aziel with my claws.Sitting right up in the bed I look around to try and find him when I realize I'm laying in his bed in his room, hearing the shower being on in his bathroom I'm quickly up on my feet. Need to go and check if he is alright!Starting to rush over to the bathroom I push the door open and run right into a wet wall, staggering back a step I look at his muscular chest where water is still running down.Following the water, on its path down his body, I'm lost in ogling him when my eyes reach his abdomen.He is but naked and there isn't anything that can get me to peel my eyes off him when I hear him clear his throat."my eyes are up here!" he says in a deep voice that has me all hot and bothered when my eyes start to travel lover over his body. I feel him hook a finger under my jaw and force me to look up at him, I hardl
Elena pov His warm and plumpy lips are devouring mine and I can't get enough of him, trying to grind myself against him but his hold on my hip only increases. I'm starting to get frustrated by this whole thing when he breaks the kiss and looks at me, my vision gets coated in a gold shimmer and my fingers start to hurt again! " fight her!" I hear him say but don't understand what to do. Recognizing this from before when my gum starts to hurt worse. " you can fight her! I don't want to put you out again" he says and I try to push back the pain when suddenly ice-cold water starts to pour down my body and I hiss from the feeling, but it does the trick! My eyes start to clear up and the pain slowly subsides in my body, hearing his heavy breathing beside my ear I start to shiver from the coldness. "That's my good girl!" he says next to my ear when he trails his nose down my cheek. Feeling him turning warmer water on I go slack in his arms and place my head on his shoulder. "We need to
Elena povHe suddenly breaks the kiss and raises his head, looking at him he has a serious gaze on his face when his eyes look strange for a moment before he looks down at me." my father is here and the maid is almost done with the dinner!" he says and pecks my lips before he gets off me and pulls me with him."I have to go down and talk to him, you can take a shower and come down when you are done, take new clothes from the closet I will make sure you get some new clothes tomorrow," he says and drags me up on my feets before he lets go of me"I have my own clothes and since you found my letter I can have them back?" I ask him. I have clothes and there is nothing wrong with them! He hocks a finger under my jaw and tilts my head up and look at him." there won't be anything missing for my woman, you will have a new wardrobe with everything you want! Once you have shifted and we have completed the mating I will have Sofia or Sam to take you out shopping!" he says and holds my gaze"Why
Elena pov Looking at our daughter in Aziel's arms I smile at the sight of her tiny body in his arms. She was just born and the nurse have cleaned her up and put her in some pink clothes I have no idea where they came from. "She is beautiful!" Aziel says and walks over to where I sit on the bed when he places her down in my arms. "Where do the pink clothes come from?" I ask him while looking at our sleeping daughter in my arms. "I bought them!" he says and I turn my head to look at him. Surprised he bought them before she was born. "You thought it was a girl as well?" I ask him in surprise when he gives me a big smile. "Or I bought two sets of everything!" he says and gives me a wink when I shake my head at him. "Don't tell me you did it!" I say and look at him, he doesn't have to say anything for me to already know that's exactly what he did! "Though it didn't matter since you want a big family we might get use for them anyway and if not I'm sure one of the others will get a b
Elena povRubbing my growing belly through the dress I have on I feel a kick in my ribs and have to bend forward when his hand comes to my back."How is it?" Aziel asks me and I place my hand on the desk and rise."Just a kick in my ribs!" I say and turn to look at him when he grabs me and lifts me up before he places me down on his desk. He takes a seat in his office chair and pulls it closer when he places his head against my stomach and his hand is on the other side."Now you have to be good and don't give your mother a hard time through the ceremony!" he says to my belly and I place my hand on his head."I don't think she cares whatever you tell her and once she is out we will have our hands full!" I say and smile at the thought when he lifts his head to look at me."Are you sure it's a girl?" he says and I only smile at him. We wanted it to be a surprise when the baby is born and the doctor where forbidden to say anything. I have known it for a long time it's a girl even if I hav
Elena povThere is no doubt in my mind he took out some aggression in the bed last night, I was prepared for him to come back and be angry at me but instead he ravished my body for hours until I was completely spent. I'm not complaining at all, he only turns me on more by being dominant and rough.Feeling a hand on my belly before his lips kiss it. Tingles play on my skin under his touch and I never want to leave the bed again."Good morning love!" he says when I open my eyes and turn my head to look at him. He is looking down at me from the side where he is laying and looking at me."Good morning!" I say and yawn, I'm tired from the lack of sleep, and most of all I want to roll over to the side and go back to sleep."How do you feel?" he says and I'm perfectly fine besides hungry. My stomach starts to rumble and speak for itself when Aziel chuckles at the sound it makes."We better get you some food!" he says and places his hand on my cheek before he leans down and pecks my lips."I
Elena povStanding in my place for a moment when I don't hear anything I start to slowly walk past the big table in the room and head for the doorway. Turning my head and looking down the hallway I hear a pair of footsteps and turn my head the other way when my eyes land on his.He stands in the hallway only dressed in a low hanging towel around his waist and looks at me for a long moment. My heart starts to beat faster at the sight of him when he starts to take long strides down the hallway to where I stand. He looks newly showered and his hair is still wet.His eyes are pitch black and the closer he gets I feel his dominant aura surrounding him. He doesn't take his eyes away from me and once he reaches over to where I stand with my back against the doorway he grabs my butt and halls me up in a swift motion.Wrapping my legs around him to steady myself he presses me back against the doorframe before he grips the back of my head and forces my head up. I don't get any chance to speak w
Elena povHe doesn't say anything for a long moment before he takes his hand away from my belly and pulls me closer to him. His lips come crashing against mine in a hard demanding kiss, I have to take a deep breath when he finally lets me go."I figured it out and that's why I came back! You should have told me instead of keeping it a secret, I wouldn't have left you! Why didn't you?" he says and doesn't let go of his hold on my head when he looks intensely at me.His other hand is placed on my waist in a firm grip and I know he won't release me until I give him an honest answer."I didn't want to tell you when we had an argument. I wanted you to be happy about it!" I say and look right into his eyes when he takes a long look at me before he answers."Why wouldn't I be happy about it? It's our child!" he says and I don't know what to answer him, my reasons feel stupid right now."I'm sorry!" I say when he wraps me up in his arms and holds me tight to him."Don't you ever keep a secret
Elena povWith all this anger in my body, I'm about to burst any second and I have to focus on trying to calm down.Turning my head to look at him his face is only inches away from mine."I won't give you that kind of satisfaction!" I spit at him when he starts to laugh and holds his grip tighter. His claws are almost cutting into my skin and I fear what will happen to me if he breaks it!It's my mother's venom that has changed him but if it gets into my body, will we survive?"Too bad you're not as strong as your mother! I will have a good time breaking your spirit and killing that bastard of yours!" he spits and that's the last push for me. He will not hurt my child!Taking a deep breath I let my wolf slightly forward and my claws slip out of my fingers, a golden shimmer coats my vision for a short second when I see him get a victorious smile on his face. Like he has won!Gathering all strength I got he grabs my hand when I try to scratch him down his face, but that was just a diver
Elena povI see the man I thought was my cousin look at me with a smirk on his lips when he pulls Aziels cousin to his side. It takes a moment before her eyes meet mine and I see guilt in her face.On her neck lies a new mark and I feel a bit bad for her to be mated to him, and at the same time her betrayal is fresh in my memory and we wouldn't have been in such trouble if it weren't for her.She averts her eyes and doesn't say anything when she looks to the side and I see a large new cut on her cheek and down her neck that has started to heel. Can only imagine who has given it to her since I know very well what he is like."Feel good about yourself right now with your mate by your side! once I get free you will not breathe much longer!" Sam spits at her when I see his cousin take a step back with her head hanging in defeat. She doesn't speak and I'm sure she has been beaten to silence by him."Let my friend go! She has nothing to do with this!" I say and hope they will release Sam wh
Elena povHis grip on my throat gets harder when I feel his face close to my ear. I try to mind link both Sam and Sofia but can't reach anyone of them and I instantly fear for their safety!"So you figured it out at last!" he says and starts to laugh a wicked laugh that sends a chill down my spine."Yes!" I say and wait for him to stop laughing. His scent is clear to me and for once I know he is a wolf, nothing I ever knew or saw any trace of when I lived under his roof. He never shifted near me and I had no idea how a wolf smelled!"But what I haven't figured out yet is your connection with the doctor!" I say and hope he will reveal the truth to me."Oh! You mean my sister!" he says next to my ear while holding his grip tighter around my neck. That's the next puzzle piece I needed."You know when she told me your mother was pregnant we started to plan the whole thing. But we didn't expect your mother to figure it out and hide you before we could get our hands on you! Well as you know
Elena povTurning around without a word I head right for my chambers, I hear them walk behind me. No one says a word until we have reached inside my chambers and closed the door."Now spill!" Sam says once we are inside and I'm not surprised she doesn't waste a second to know what's going on.I walk right over to the couch without answering and start to take out my mother's journals when they both walk over and take a seat on the couch."Aziel talked to me this night and agreed to start a family under one condition!" I say and open the first notebook and place it in front of me."What's the condition?" Sofia asks and I turn to look at her."If I get pregnant I will have to be by his side every second of the day and he will have more guards around me! Even have Sam following me inside the bathroom!" I say when Sam bursts out."Hell no! I'm not following you inside the bathroom, I'm not interested in seeing you do your business" She shakes her head and has her hands up in surrender. I w
