Olympia’s POV“This is your plan?” I asked Lola as we stood in front of the building.“Uh-huh,” she replied. “Lola, we’re supposed to be in hiding, remember. Xavier cannot know that I’m in his territory and working as a healer in his territory’s hospital is going to put me in the spotlight. Besides, why would you think about me working here?” I said to her.“What’s wrong with you working here? Girl, you’re one of the best healers I have ever seen. All those times you healed Zayn and I whenever we had a bruise or fell ill is enough experience you need. I still don’t know why you refused to apply for a healer’s position at our former territory’s hospital. By now, you probably would have been made healer,” she said.“Fine, you’ve said enough but what if Xavier sees me here?” I asked. “No, he wouldn’t. I already asked a friend who works here and she said the Lycan King rarely comes to the hospital. The healers go to him in the palace whenever he needs to be treated. So, you have nothing
Olympia's POV I froze, not knowing what to reply. His piercing gaze was still fixated on me, making me believe they were capable of reaching into my soul. “I'm…I'm sorry. I shouldn't have done that. It's just…” I was saying until I got cut short by Head Healer Ryder. “Are you kidding me? That was incredible” he said, his voice dripping of admiration and praise. I looked at him with a shocked expression and said, “Really?” “Of course. Your healing abilities are impeccable,” he answered. I stood still, dumbfounded as I watched the man who had not long ago scorned my qualifications, now singing my praises. “Told you she's good,” Lola said to him, beaming from ear to ear. “And I should have believed you,” he replied. Then turning to face me, he said, “I'm sorry for underestimating you earlier. It's just that we've had many people come in to apply for positions like this and they don't have any experiences and qualifications and when we give them a chance, they mess u
Olympia's POV The following morning, I woke up very early, feeling both nervous and excited at the same time. I was eager to begin my first official day as a healer in the hospital. I had just finished dressing up in the blue uniform that was delivered to the house the previous night when Zayn ran into the room. “Wow Mommy, you look so beautiful,” he exclaimed. “Aww thank you baby,” I replied. “I'm so excited,” he said. “And why’s that, baby?” I asked him. “Aunty Lola said you will be saving lives. I can't wait to tell everyone that my Mommy is a lifesaver,” he said. I felt my heart warm up when he said this. This meant he was proud of me as his mother. I pulled him in for a hug. “Aww baby, mummy is so happy to hear that. Don't worry, I'll do my best to save as many lives as possible, okay?” I said to him and he nodded in excitement. I looked at myself in the mirror one last time to ensure that I wasn't missing anything before grabbing my back and leaving the room. W
Olympia's POV “Those bitches. Why would they treat you that way? I bet they are jealous because you are more beautiful than they are,” Lola said angrily. I simply chuckled at her reaction. We were sitting down to a late dinner, catching up on my first day of work. I had arrived home about an hour ago and Lola insisted we had dinner together. Her statement erupted after telling her about my encounter with the other nurses at the hospital.“Well, I don't blame them. I guess they're just scared of having a new person around. I believe they will adjust with time,” I said.“Whatever. Anyways, How's he?” Lola asked, wiggling her brows.I held a confused expression in my face as I asked,“How's who?”“C'mon girl, you know who I'm talking about,” she said.I rolled my eyes, chuckling.“You mean Head Healer Ryder?” I asked. “Uh-huh,” she answered with a smirk on her face.I blushed while shaking my head, “Lola stop please. He's my boss, and I'm not interested,” I said.Lola raised her eyeb
Olympia’s POV I turned in the direction of the sound to see Head Healer Ryder standing behind me. I could feel my heart racing. His presence silenced the tense atmosphere. He scanned the room with his piercing blue eyes. “I ask again, what’s going on here?” he asked again, his voice sterner than before. “Sorry, Head Healer Ryder. We were just talking to Olympia about her tardiness. We were trying to make sure it doesn’t happen again,” Rose said. I opened my mouth to defend myself but Head Healer Ryder raised his hand to stop me. “I’m going to handle this. Olympia, could you come with me to my office?” he said to me and turned to walk away. As I followed him, Veronica, Rose and Nivea had smirks on their faces. When we arrived at his office, a beautiful spacious area, Head Healer Ryder motioned for me to sit down. I thanked him before taking my seat. “Olympia, before I say what I have in mind, I’d first like to know the cause of your tardiness today. Can you explain?” he sa
Olympia's POV If I'm to prepare the east wing for inspection, that means I would have to be available during the inspection.I might even have to lead it.That means Xavier would see me and he might kill me if indeed the message I received years ago was true.Fear gripped my heart.“Olympia, you sure you're okay?” Miranda asked again, looking worried.“I…I think I'm not feeling too well,” I said.A fake cough followed.“Really?” She said, touching my forehead.“But you were fine a while ago. What could be the problem?” she asked.“I don't know. Maybe I need to go home and rest a bit,” I said, trying to keep up the charade.“Oh that's not good. Head Healer Ryder would not be happy about this but your health matters the most. You can go. I'll tell him about your health,” she said.I thanked her and turned to leave but just before I got to the exit, Inehard my name.“Olympia, where are you going to? That's not the way to the east wing,” Head Healer Ryder said.I slowly turned around to
Olympia's POV Is that it? I asked myself. “I…I'm a bit sick,” I lied. “Oh sorry about that. You should take care of your health. You attend to sick people everyday. You don't want to pass it on to them,” he said calmly and I nodded. Maybe he does recognise me, I thought, feeling a bit relieved. “So what's your name?” He asked. I froze once again. If he doesn't recognise me by face, he might recognise me by name. Xavier must have mentioned my name to him. “Young lady, did you hear me?” He asked. “S…sorry sir,” I stammered. I heard snickering behind me and when I looked back, I saw Nivea and her friends laughing at me silently. My fear heightened. But just then, my eyes caught Miranda's and she held a comforting look in her face. I felt a bit relieved before turning back to face Prince Troy. “My…my name's O…Olympia,” I said. “Olympia, that's a good name,” he said. “Thank you, your Highness,” I said. He was quiet for a while as if thinking of something. “Y
Olympia’s POV“Healer Olympia, can I see you in my office please?” Head Healer Ryder said before walking away.“Okay sir,” I answered, watching him leave.I looked at Miranda in surprise. She looked back at me with the same expression on her face.What did he want to see me for? I wondered.I got up from my seat, told Miranda I’d be back and followed Head healer Ryder. When I got to his office, he was already seated in his executive chair.“Sit,” he said and I did.“I want to ask you a question and please be honest with me,” he added.I nodded.“Are Nivea, Rose and Veronica troubling you?” he asked.I froze, not knowing how to respond. I didn’t want anyone to be reprimanded for my sake, especially.“Remember, you have to be honest with me,” he said and I sighed.I had to tell him the truth.“Well, they can be a handful sometimes but it’s nothing I can’t manage,” I said.“That’s not the answer to my question, Olympia. You are supposed to reply with either a yes or no,” he answered wit
Chapter 49Their gazes met and clung as she slowly pulled the tie until it slipped loose. The size of his erection parted the built-in split, but it wasn’t enough. Olympia took hold of the waistband and just as slowly pulled his bottoms down. She dropped with them, keeping her gaze on Xavier’s but very aware of how close his sex was to her face. His cock was long and thick and bobbed as if inviting her to put her mouth on him. The musky scent of his arousal sucked her in.It was an intoxicating aphrodisiac.Olympia couldn’t help it. As she began to rise, she stuck her tongue out and gave his cock a long sweep from where it jutted out at his balls, to the dripping, bulbous head. She heard Xavier's hiss, and then he was hauling her into his arms."I'm going to enjoy fucking you." He kissed her roughly.Being crushed against his naked, aroused body fueled Olympia’s arousal to dizzying heights. His cock slid between her thighs and over her pussy like a hot poker, burning her while turnin
Oh my god!Olympia slammed the door shut and locked it. She was trapped in the home of a man who thought he could change into a wolf! She’d gone to the door to ask Xavier if he minded if she made another pot of coffee when she’d heard him say, “I want her, cousin.” Though her name hadn’t been mentioned, instincts warned her that they were talking about her. She couldn’t believe what she’d heard following that.She’d always been curious by nature, too curious; her mother would scold her when she was little. But nothing could draw her away from the door at that point. She stepped back into the shadows when Xavier got up from the steps, only revealing herself when she sensed that their conversation was ending.Terrified, her gaze darted around the room for something, anything she could use as a weapon. All she wanted now was to get out of there alive. The doorknob rattled behind her, and Olympia swung around with a cry. Then, before her disbelieving eyes, the door was kicked in and Xav
SHE’S IN HEAT,” WAS the first thing out of Max’s mouth as the two men sat down on the porch steps.An abrupt laugh escaped Xavier that had little to do with humor. “Yeah, I've noticed. It’s been fucking hell.” Keeping his distance, ignoring the pull of her scent would break a weaker man, but that man wasn't him.“You haven’t mated her yet?”Xavier shook his head. “She doesn’t know why she’s here. I at least owe her an explanation before I claim her.” He only hoped that he could hold out.Max chuckled. “You think that’s going to make a difference? Maybe if she’d grown up within the pack and knew our ways, knew what to expect. She was raised differently, cousin. She doesn’t even know that we exist.”“Seeing is believing. Besides, it doesn’t matter what she believes. She’s my mate, and she’ll have to comply with our laws.”It’s going around that you and Clive fought over a woman last night. I’m assuming it was Serena.” Max frowned. “I’m confused over your hostility toward her though. You
Olympia sighed and moved against the soft blankets, confused by what was happening to her. She was alive, but more than that, her body was consumed with a fierce need she couldn’t will away, and she didn’t want to. The feeling coursing through her was stronger than she’d ever known, a hunger that was going to eat her up if she didn’t do something about it, and soon.Was she still sleeping, or locked in some kind of sensual dream? She couldn’t seem to open her eyes. Everything seemed intensified, her heartbeat, her breathing, the erotic rush that followed the caress of her hands as she touched herself. Oh, God! What’s happening to me? Olympia caressed her aching breasts and taut nipples before her hand glided down to the pulsing flesh between her legs.God, I’m so hot!She parted her thighs and touched her tingling clit. It was as hard as a rock and twice the normal size. Rapture overwhelmed her at that slightest touch, causing her to arch her hips off the bed. Why am I so horny? Wha
Xavier stared down at Olympia as she slept; satisfied that she was going to be okay now that she was dry and warm. Once he’d gotten her back to his cabin he’d stripped her and wrapped her in blankets warmed in front of the fire. Hypothermia would have been the least of her troubles had his half-brother Ryder gotten to her first.Even knowing that Olympia was born his mate, Ryder had been hell bent on getting to her first and leaving his mark on her. That would have ruined the elders’ plans, but it wouldn’t have stopped Xavier from claiming her as his. Wolves only had one mate, and they mated for life. As the alpha male in the pack, they could deny him nothing.He’d sensed her presence almost from the moment she’d arrived in Savage Hills, at his invitation, and under the promise of a job. It hadn’t taken him long to locate her, either. Her scent was a powerful aphrodisiac to him, tempting the wolf in him to come out, to seek and protect. The urge to claim her was stronger than he’d ant
The answer became clear the second the wolf began to paw and slam against the driver’s side window with bruising force. Ollie wasn’t going to hang around to see what he was going to do before she made up her mind. He was after her, and going by his frenzied actions, he didn’t want her to pet him. She struggled to her feet, blinking against the pounding rain. It didn’t matter which way she went, she only knew that she had to run.She turned toward the woods and didn’t think twice about heading for them. Barely paying attention to the branches and leaves that were striking her body, she ran as fast as she could, blindly into the cold, wet darkness, aware that the wolf’s mate was somewhere out there, too, and possibly with the rest of the pack.Ollie ran until she couldn’t run any further. Out of breath and with a painful stitch in her side, she fell to her knees. She grabbed her side, wheezing and panting, listening for any sound that indicated that the wolf was following her. For a whi
Olympia POVMy eyelids flutter open, and I stare at the ceiling, feeling dazed.'Where am I?'I don't know this place. The ceiling is enough to tell me that this isn't my place. My ceiling is dark and spotty. This one has been painted over with a vibrant blue.Pulling myself into a sitting position, my eyes take in the room. My head is splitting, and my body feels heavy. It takes me a couple of minutes to realize that this is a motel room. The small outdated television box across the room is a dead giveaway.My fingers run through my hair, agitated, "How did I get here?"My memory is fragmented. There's no scent in this room except mine.I know I didn't walk here on my own two feet. Even if I had been drunk out of my mind, I wouldn't have come to an unknown motel just for kicks. No, somebody brought me here. Tense, I get to my feet, my whole body feeling like it has just taken a savage beating. Using the bedpost for support, I search the room for my things, but I can't find them. My h
Olympia POVWe had been on the run for weeks, driving north to ensure no one would find us.But now we have to stop running. We had no choice when I felt my heat stir beneath my skin, ready to break free.Only this time, I was excited about it. Because now it was with Xavier by my side.Anticipation rose, sparks ignited on my bare skin when he pulled me closer, hating how my scent peaked and we were still in the car with the others.Ryder was driving like crazy, trying not to get distracted by my heat, while Xavier couldn’t stop his chest from rumbling. Logan growled possessively beneath the surface.Yes, it kept the other wolves at bay, but it also made this fire inside me rise higher and higher.“I think we need to stop.” Ryder’s words were strained, his hands turning white from the firm grip on the steering wheel.“Are we almost there?” I asked and immediately cursed myself for opening my mouth. Because the way my voice sounded, all needy, really didn’t help.Conner and Ryder tried
Olympia’s POV "What? That drawing!" Xavier exclaimed from behind me as I was done drawing."What? Does it bring a bell?" I asked, looking at him in surprise."Uhm... Kind of." He said."Are... are you sure? You acted like you remembered the logo or something." I asked, eyeing him suspiciously.He grabbed a bottle of beer and slurped almost all the content in it.I tried to snatch the bottle back, but he's bigger and stronger than me, and there's no way in hell he's letting me have it back."It's none of your business," I spit out weakly."These are illegal," he says furiously, "which makes it my business.""Nu-uh!" I shake my head. "They're not, and they're mine. You can't steal my property!"He meets my gaze, tucking the orange-colored bottle into his back pocket, "You're in a lot of trouble.""I have to take those!" I snarl. "Or I'll go out of my mind! I have classes with you every other day, or have you forgotten?! And then you show up like clockwork at my place of work! This is t
