Raven lifted her long lashes as she glanced secretly at Lorcan, who was working in front of her. She hid back a smile that crept up her lips when she saw Lorcan’s furrowed eyebrows and focused gaze as he read some papers.Lorcan looked more attractive with his intent gaze on a boring paper. Raven couldn’t help but imagine what if she was that paper.Raven’s cheeks flushed at the thought. She should be doing her job, not staring at him and having these inappropriate thoughts. Raven had spent more time staring at Lorcan instead of accomplishing her tasks. A deep growl emanated from Lorcan’s throat, pulling Raven from her pool of thoughts. “Take a picture, it will last longer, moonpie,” Lorcan spoke without glancing at Raven. Raven’s cheeks flushed bright red when she heard Lorcan’s words. She felt embarrassed for being caught ogling him. She thought he didn’t notice that she was looking. Her heart also quickened inside her chest with the new endearment that he called her. Raven clear
Lorcan’s gaze is fixated on Raven as he waited for what the Pack doctor is going to say. He pursed his lips and brought his hands together impatiently as he anxiously waited for the pack doctor’s assessment of her health. Raven is quiet, her breathing is deep and steady as the Pack doctor took a look of the bruises that covered her entire body. He also checked her vitals and did some tests to see if she’s recovering normally. The silence in the room was palpable as they awaited what the Pack Doctor is going to say. Their feelings also did not get any better, seeing the Pack doctor’s stoic expression and the frequent twitch of his eyebrows sent them on edge.“How is your wolf doing lately?” The Pack doctor asks, breaking the silence.Raven is pulled out off her reverie when the Pack doctor suddenly asked her a question. “Uhh,” Raven gulped. “I still haven’t heard from her lately. I’m not sure if she was evading me or if she’s too weak to contact me,” Raven answered truthfully, her e
Lorcan’s words trailed off as his gaze fell to the ground. He was about to explain himself when Raven cut him off and averted her gaze from him.Lorcan swallowed back the words that he was supposed to say. He could feel Raven’s fears and doubts eating her, but she was more afraid to hear an explanation from him and have her doubts proven to her. Lorcan stilled, the weight of his realization settled heavily upon him. His conscience urges him to take action. What bothers Raven also bothers him too. Lorcan places his gaze back on Raven as he pondered if he should continue and tell his side. He wanted to set things straight with Raven right now, assure her that he is a man of his word that she doesn’t have to worry or be afraid anymore because he is going to fulfill the promises that he made her. However, doubt also gnawed at him, whispering that his words alone would fail to convince her. His explanation sounded absurd even to him no matter if it was the truth. Ultimately, he feared
Raven and Lorcan had finally arrived at their destination. When Raven opened her eyes, she was surprised at what Lorcan had prepared for her.Raven only slept throughout the whole ride. Lorcan insisted that she sleep while he drove. He did not want her to get tired during their travels. The reason they are out traveling is to give her time to rest and help her recover in the first place.Raven didn’t argue with Lorcan, and she actually fell asleep. If Lorcan hadn’t woken her up by shaking her shoulder when they arrived, she wouldn’t have woken up.“Oh wow!” Raven gasped as the cool breeze hit her face and fanned her long hair.She was in awe as she stared at the amazing sunset and listened to the waves crashing on top of each other. It was a very beautiful sight. This is my first time at the beach.“You like it?” Lorcan asks her as he takes out their luggage from the back of their car.Raven nodded quickly as she turned her head toward Lorcan. Her face lit up like the golden sunset be
Kissa watched as Lorcan and Raven’s car sped out of her sight as they go off for their honeymoon. Raven keeps insisting that it was a vacation, not a honeymoon, but just like the others Kissa also highly doubts that what’s going to happen between them would just be a simple vacation. Their trip is obviously a honeymoon? A pair of mates going on a vacation together? Who would believe that nothing is going to happen between them there. Without any external distractions and being alone in the same place, they will surely develop feelings with each other. They could even develop a new Alpha, an heir for their Pack. Alpha Axel and Luna Savina had actually prepared a secret newlywed vacation for them. It was supposed to be a surprise, a gift for their son’s wedding. They knew that their son would never accept such a gift and knowing Raven, they were also sure that she wouldn’t want to spend an alone time with their son either. This wedding trip that they had planned as a gift for them
Celia’s lips curved into a mischievous smile as she watched Kissa fall off her chair. Her eyes gleamed with a secret satisfaction as Kissa crawled backwards, distancing herself from her. She looked like she had seen a ghost, she clearly didn’t expect to see her wake up. That’s right, Celia has just been pretending to be sick all this time. She never drank any wolfsbane. The omega and the pack doctors were all working for her which is why she is able to spin such a lie and make everyone believe that she is fighting for her life. Celia pushed herself up and sat loftily on her bed. Pretending to be unconscious for so long has been so tiresome, she moved her neck from side to side and stretched her arms after keeping them still for so long. “Surprise, Kissa,” Celia smirked at her as she relished on Kissa’s bewildered expression. “Y-Your awake?” Kissa asked out loud as she lifted a trembling finger and pointed at her. Kissa’s eyes were as wide as saucers and she did not blink. “How l
Raven just got out of the shower. She’s just wearing her bathrobe, her hair is still wet, and she’s drying it with a small towel. As soon as she got out of the bathroom, the delicious aroma hit her nostrils, causing her eyes to close in delight and her stomach to rumble in hunger. Lorcan smiled at Raven when he noticed her coming down the stairs, but Raven’s eyes were on the meal that Lorcan had cooked for them.Lorcan’s eyes sparkled with delight when he saw how Raven licked her lips hungrily while looking at the food he had cooked for her. She had no idea that Lorcan was watching her. Raven got tired from swimming earlier. She hadn’t felt hungry until she saw the cooked lobster along with the seared scallops and jumbo shrimps surrounding it. Lorcan is pleased to see that Raven liked his effort of cooking dinner for her. “I hope you are not allergic to seafood because that will be our dinner today,” Lorcan finally said, catching Raven’s attention. Raven smiled curtly at him. “I’
While Lorcan is trying to figure out what it is, Raven takes too long to respond. She is busy putting her folded clothes carefully inside the cabinet. Her back is turned on Lorcan, which is why she has no idea of what he’s talking about. Meanwhile, Lorcan is flipping the garment around, figuring out what exactly it is. When he had finally figured it out, his cheeks turned bright red, and his heart race quickened. Why did it take too long for him to understand what it was? He had already touched every part of the fabric when he realized what it was. It’s no wonder why he thought this attire was not meant to cover up anything. Lorcan swallowed hard. He doesn’t know what to do with it. He doesn’t know if he should put back the garment and pretend he did not see anything or if he should pretend that he still had no idea that he was holding Raven’s lingerie. He doesn’t know which would be less embarrassing for Raven and less humiliating for him. Raven’s eyes widened in horror when they
