My eyebrows shot up when Mirela sat in Ethan’s lap and kissed him on his lips. I was just glad I didn’t have the power to shoot arrows at people using my eyes because if I had, I would have hit my target with blazing arrows. I glared at them with hatred as they kissed.
Mirela, not minding Amber and Janice, arched her body to him.
‘Is she a good kisser, Ethan?’ I hissed, my eyes squinting as I watched her devouring his lips.
Ethan seemed to choke. He straightened up, coughing and pushing Mirela away gently.
She sneered and sat in the space where I was sitting a while ago. “What kind of boyfriend are you, Ethan? Do I really need to set an appointment with my fiancé?” she complained and looked dagger at his secretary.
Janice cringed leered at her before turning her back at everybody.
He forced a smile and stood up. ‘Where are you?’

(Ethan’s POV)I have been staring at Rodriguez’s main door for a few minutes now, but every time I attempted to knock, I stopped myself, remembering how much I hurt Izobel. Asia and Ryzen could not tell her whereabouts after the meeting. Janice reviewed the CCTV cameras many times, but she couldn’t find traces of Izobel leaving the building.My heart stopped beating for a second when the door opened.It was Alaric who opened the door. “If you’re expecting the door will open magically, it’s not going to happen, Ethan.”I half-smiled at him and entered the foyer as he gestured his hand, telling me to come inside.“If you’re looking for Izobel, she’s in her bedroom, moping about something,” He shared, pressing his lips as he suppressed a smile. “Amber told me everything that happened, Ethan,” he said as he led me to th

(Ethan’s POV)The sun had just set, but no Izobel came to the tent. Since I came back here, I knew this tent out in the woods was her sanctuary I had intruded on. Despite that, she allowed me to set my foot here, which has become our meeting place. Sighing deeply, I went out of the tent and sat on the folding chair where I would usually see her sitting, wondering why she would always face this direction. The chair has never moved in any direction like it has been fixed here.Sitting on the chair, I finally understood why she loved it here. My mouth half-opened as I gasped, seeing the beauty of the sun slowly hiding in the sky. The shutting out of light exploded the sky with vibrant colors of orange, golden-yellow like Izobel’s eyes, and red, looking like fire like what I was feeling for her.If Amber

(Ethan’s POV)Izobel threw her head back to look at my face. She licked her lips, still tasting my blood. “And you are now mine, Ethan Wilson!” She said, but I could read confusion, excitement, and fear in her eyes.What did she see?Did Izobel know I love her more than she loves me?My lips molded into hers, challenging her into a deeper kiss as I unfastened her bra, freeing her breasts. I heard her gasp as my hand slid down her mounds, touching and cupping each breast lovingly. My mouth started nipping her earlobe, causing her to sigh in pleasure, but I didn’t stop. I slid down to her neck, playfully biting and licking her neck down to her shoulder.“I won’t stop until I taste you and make you completely mine, Izobel,” I whispered in her ear. “Then don’t stop, Ethan. I’m begging you, please, don’t you dare stop.

(Izobel’s POV)Something magical… something scary, happened.When I opened my eyes, I was in Ethan’s arms, and he was sleeping like any ordinary human should be. He was breathing evenly, but there was something in him that I could not understand. We were like fighting for dominance over something, and he won fairly, but how?The slashes on my tent were proof that my claws dug into his skin as I reached my climax many times, causing me to panic and check his body, but just like my bite, he has healed completely. I breathed out in relief.I got up, put on my clothes, and went out of my ruined tent, running, reaching the house in a few seconds, and sneaking in the backdoor in the kitchen, but before I could get into my bedroom, my mother blocked my way, startling me.“Something startled my daughter,” s

(Ethan’s POV)“Ethan for breakfast? Was he on the menu?” Connor said, not smiling, but I knew he was only joking, trying to scare me. He pulled a chair for Deidra, and when she was seated, he sat down quietly.Izobel sat silently in her usual seat, not smiling, and I didn’t know why it bothered me that she was quiet. I reached for her hand, wanting to let her know I was here.‘Is everything alright, Izobel?’ I asked, and she looked at me, forcing a smile as she nodded.‘Just scared,’ she answered, lowering her gaze as her parents walked into the kitchen.‘Me, too.’ I pressed my lips, suppressing a chuckle. I would probably not walk alive in the kitchen as Connor fixed his eyes on me.“Good morning!” Amber chimed

(Ethan’s POV)Nolan was surprised to see me early this morning in his apartment. He was still in his pajama when he opened the door. Leaving the door ajar, I followed him to the kitchen after closing the door behind me. Just like me, he lived alone in his apartment.“Is everything alright?” he asked, glancing at me as he brewed coffee. “You’re early. Something wrong?”I nodded, then shook my head, causing Nolan to chuckle.“Something happened between you and Izobel?” he asked again, getting the cups from the cupboard. He tapped the countertop as he waited for the coffee maker to finish its task. “Should I buy a new coffee maker?” Nolan tried to break the silence, but my mind seemed to have wandered far away.“Nolan, should we go back and check what’s this cou

(Izobel’s POV)“Going on camping?” Asia asked me when she saw me browsing online for a new tent.“Yeah,” I answered, adding cart almost everything related to camping. Her face was closer to me, reviewing all the items I placed in the online cart. Ryzen got her attention and joined us. They almost sandwiched my face.Ryzen clucked his tongue, shook his head, and crossed his arms on his chest. “Asia, this girl’s not coming back. She’ll be spending her entire time camping.”“Who’s not coming back?” Ethan asked, causing me to raise my head and my heart to beat faster. I glanced at him, but I returned my eyes to my computer screen. My sensitive ears heard some people coming to the office, placing something in the office, but I did not bother to see it.“Izobel has been ad

(Izobel’s POV)Nolan was shocked as he curled himself in the living room corner, his wide eyes pinned on the approaching wolf. We could tell he was stopping himself from breathing, terrified at what he had witnessed. He was shirtless, so I assumed Amber lured him, making out with him, and then she did her plan. Dad and I lunged into her body before she could approach him.“Amber, stop!” I cried hysterically as I wrapped my arms around her neck while my dad blocked her way, protecting Nolan.‘Dad, stop protecting him. I will kill him before they hurt us.’ She hissed, trying to struggle and escape from me. ‘Don’t stop me, Izobel. I won’t make the same mistake as yours!’ She snarled at me, but I growled furiously at her.“You’re crazy, Amber. Do you know what will happen

(Izobel’s POV)“Hello, Anastacia!” I greeted and smiled, but there was an edge to it.She raised her eyebrows, not expecting to see me in the hotel. I was sure she looked shocked and studied me from head to toe about three times.“You did not change,” she uttered, almost in a whisper, her eyes still squinting.Anastacia was popular in high school, and I bet she would still be popular among our batchmates if the school would hold a reunion now. She was the same Anastacia, the much better version that men would probably fantasize about, having an alluring beauty and hot sexy body.“Why, Anastacia? Are you expecting me to grow tentacles?” I smirked and raised my eyebrows at her.The clerk at the front desk pressed her lips to suppress a chuckle and lowered her gaze, pretending to focus on the screen of her computer monitor.“No!” She hissed. “I’m expecting you to have wings and fangs.” She sneered as her nostrils flared in annoyance. “Fix this,” she said.I walked toward Anne’s side, che

(Izobel’s POV)It was after seven when Amber and Nolan came to pick me up from the hotel, but I told our parents I would not stay for the night, and they knew where to find me if they needed me. After our late lunch at the restaurant, I went back to the office and did not return to him. What’s the point of going back when he couldn’t give me answers?If he wasn’t meant to hunt and kill my family, or Mirela’s not engaged with him, the possibility of bringing him and Nolan with us would be big, like a hundred percent. Leaving this place and living in another would never be the same because it would not be easy to forget Ethan. My heart would always ache for him, wanting to be with him, and I doubt if I would be able to find another man to love.Love… I heaved a sigh, forgetting about that unfortunate word.I knew Ethan would look for me, but with a place even my family did not know, he wouldn’t be able to find me. I leaned my back on the overly sized branch of the oldest tree in the fo

(Izobel’s POV)My head rested on his chest while his arms were wrapped around my body, not letting me go. When I checked the time on my wristwatch, I had been here for more than four hours. I couldn’t believe Ethan had brought me to the blissful seventh heaven many times. I craned my neck to look at his handsome face. “You made me hungry, Ethan,” I said, taking his hand on my mouth, playfully biting his wrist but never sinking my teeth into the throbbing blood in his veins. It would give me strength, but I craved human food.“Just a little,” he kissed my forehead, believing me.“Not this one. My wolf me is hungry for food. Real food, Ethan,” I chuckled, climbing down from the bed, and when he tried to pull me back to the bed, I shook my head. “Tonight,” I promised. I wanted more of him, and every time he claimed me, uniting our body and soul, the more I wanted to kill anyone who would take him away from me.I walked at my human pace naked and collected my clothes outside his bedroom.

(Ethan’s POV)Perhaps the bond Izobel and I created was strong that I knew she was coming. Before she could push the doorbell, I opened the door for her and pulled her inside my place, kissing her fervently as I locked the door. I planned to pull her into the bedroom, but feeling impatient, I pinned her to the closed door and thought of taking her here.I hadn’t touched her since we bonded, and now, as I desired her, I kissed her greedily, letting her know I was hungry for her and not caring if she would tear my place apart.“Ethan,” she breathed as I pulled her clothes off, not leaving even her underwear and tossing them on the floor.Burning with desire like me, she took off my clothes, gladly not ripping them apart. I smiled, hearing her pounding heart and exciting me as I glided my lips toward the hollow of her throat.“Somebody might come. Janice -”“Janice won’t come here,” I answered, nestling my face to her shoulder, tilting her neck, and licking her skin. “I told her we will

(Izobel’s POV)“She’s kinda weird, you think?” Ryzen said when we were alone in the elevator.“Why?” I asked, glancing at him and then back to the floor number. If I were to ask, I preferred using the stairs because our floor destination was only on the fifth floor.“I don’t know, maybe because she’s always been looking around the hotel. More like snooping around,” he answered. “I almost wanted to check the CCTV where she’s been going, just to check, you know.”“I understand,” I said, pressing my lips, but when the elevator door opened, I talked to Ryzen again. “So, what’s the complaint all about?” “The couple in Room 502 is complaining about the noise from the next room. We hardly had this kind of complaint because first, the walls are soundproof, and second, I was terrified somebody’s turning in that room.”I raised my eyebrows at him. “Turning? Turning into what?” I wanted to correct him about the soundproof wall, like not hearing any noises at all. He pressed his lips and looke

(Izobel’s POV)Jeanna was staring at me and tilting her head as if to find something in my face. For her satisfaction, I let her look at me for a while, studying me like I was some kind of painting in the museum of Louvre. She picked up her cup, sipped her coffee without breaking her gaze at me, and then she returned the cup to the saucer.“I’m sorry, Izobel. I knew it was rude, but every time I see you, I feel like I am looking at Carrie,” she chuckled gently.I gave her a friendly smile as if it was nothing, but the truth was I was nervous because this was unlikely to happen. Between Amber and me, I would go back and check on the people I became friends with, but I was always careful not to be noticed or seen. As soon as we left the place, Dad would secure us all with a new identity, and the old data would be erased.“It’s okay. I guess we have that one in our lifetime,” I told her, wishing I had the power to read Jeanna’s mind.“I know,” she rolled her eyes in amusement. “But I hea

(Izobel’s POV)I walked half-asleep inside the office, wishing I was a vampire in movies that never sleep. With Ethan and I sharing a bed, my option was to buy a bigger bed or sleep on the floor. I could make a wink for an hour when he left very early to go back to his penthouse, not wanting Janice to panic that he was not there when she arrived.“Good morning, sleepy head,” greeted Ryzen, placing a cup of coffee in front of me. “Need more caffeine or bed?”“Bed, please,” I groaned as I picked up my cup, smelling the strong scent of black coffee before sipping. My hand reached for the computer, turning it on while enjoying the coffee.“What happened to you?” Asia asked when she walked past me, noticing the bandage on my forearm.I glanced at her, smiling sheepishly as I answered, “Accident. I guess I needed the vacation.” I tilted my head, looking at her. “Should I take a two-week vacation?”Ryzen smirked. “With this smokin’ number of clients, do it, and I’ll kill you.”I heaved a dee

(Izobel’s POV)I did not open my eyes even when I felt someone climbing up my bed. I do not have to open my eyes to guess who it is. Despite Ethan’s insistence, I still sent him to Amber’s bedroom. Either he would spend the night downstairs or enjoy his sleep in my twin sister’s bedroom.Amber snuggled closer to me as she embraced me. “Izobel, why is there a gorgeous man in my bed? He definitely ruined my plan with Nolan,” she giggled softly.A naughty smile curved my lips. “That was actually the plan. No one must be overly happy tonight.”“Selfish!” she hissed, but she laughed with me.I rolled to my side to face her. “Are you happy, Amber?”“I’ve never been so happy in my life, Izobel. Mom’s right! Finding your mate is heaven,” she answered, meeting my eyes.“I know,” I whispered, but Amber knew that the mates who had chosen us, or maybe we have chosen, posed a huge problem in our lives and existence. No one should know we existed. No one must find out about our family.“Your mind…

(Izobel’s POV)“Carrie Hamilton?” she asked, her eyes surprised as she looked at me, and then she shook her head and chuckled adoringly. “Of course, it’s not you,” she said, rolling her eyes. “That would be impossible.”I forced a smile, racking my brain and trying to think who she could be as she looked familiar to me. My heart hammered in my chest because I had used the name Carrie before, but that was twenty years ago. She advanced toward the mirror, looking at our reflection. “But wow… the similarities were so…” her voice trailed off as she studied my face. “You have those same eyes and…”“You’re a Hamilton, right?” Janice cut in, twitching her lips as she tried to remember where she had seen it. “Ah! In your file. Your middle name is Hamilton.”I was forced to lift the corners of my mouth, smiling at her as I remembered who she was.“Carrie’s my aunt,” I lied.Her eyes brightened. “Really? Wow! The genes must be that strong. Goosebumps, see?” she laughed, showing Janice and me
