Irresistible Temptations Anger and fury
Fury ran through me unlike anything I'd ever felt. I felt like I was 17 all over again, but I'm not 17 years old anymore! I'm a grown ass adult! And there was no way I was going to letAsher Creed treat me like this again!No. He was going to get the tongue lashing he always deserved.When I had the courage to move my feet and bombard on him, Harper yelled at me."What the hell are you doing?! Why aren't you dressed?"I spun to find her glaring at me with her hands on her hips. She was wearing everything but her wedding gown and my heart dropped. Was it that time already?"What time is it?" I asked confused. I didn't think I was in my room for that long, but it also wouldn't surprise me. When I got into my work, I tended to lose track of time."It's time for your pretty little ass to get dressed and meet us downstairs!" She sounded frantic and I wanted to calm her down but no amount of calming words were going to break Harper from her rampage. "The hairdresser just got here so hurry up
Irresistible Temptations Emotions
"What's wrong? You seem tense..." He was studying my face but I held my fake smile and pushed off of him."It's a tense evening. I don't like being in front of all these people." Which wasn't a lie. I hated when all eyes were on me, even if it were just for a split second.I moved away from him and found my spot at the table. I couldn't help but notice that Asher looked troubled as he took his own spot, looking at me with confusion. He turned his gaze toward Harper and Tate as they made their grand entrance and I turned my attention to them as well.We made it through dinner and now it was time to party, and damn did I need this.Before Asher could come near me, I jumped up from my spot at the table and stormed toward the bar where I ordered two shots and sucked them down like water."More, please." I stared at the hired bartender who was grinning at me. He was cute too.He poured me two more shots when he looked just over my shoulder. "For you sir?"I didn't have to look to know that
Irresistible Temptations Miss him already
"What are you talking about, Layla?" He was doing a good job at portraying that he really didn't know what I was talking about. Either he didn't, or he stepped up his game in the last seven years."Don't treat me like an idiot, Asher. I wasn't born yesterday." I tried to push away from him but he held me tighter to his chest."Don't walk away from me. I don't think you're an idiot. I honestly don't know what the hell you're talking about!" He looked hurt, angry, and confused."This afternoon," I breathed out, looking around the room before adding, "I was coming to your room but when I stepped out into the hallway, Abby came out wearing only a towel and giggled like an idiot..." I looked away but Asher grabbed my chin and forced me to look at him."And you think I was with Abby." It wasn't a question, but a statement, and I slowly nodded. "You really do still think I'm an asshole, don't you?"I let out a snorting laugh as I tried to look away, but he only held my chin tighter. "Well, y
Irresistible Temptations Heated up moment
My heart pounded against my chest. I wanted to stay with him, yet another part of me scolded my current state of mind.This was Asher Creed we're talking about here.He could say he's changed all he wanted, but I still needed him to show me proof and jumping into bed with him wasn't how I should go about this. Not yet anyways."Okay..." I breathed, my mind screaming at me but my body was doing the talking right now.He grinned down at me before he lowered his lips to mine once again. Gah, he tasted so good."Let's go." He grabbed my hand but I allowed my mind to take over just for a moment."We can't go right now! We're in the wedding party! People will get suspicious if we go missing."He stopped and stared at me. "We aren't kids anymore, Stanford. We don't have to hide our attraction to one another anymore. I don't care if people know. Let them." Then he stepped so close to me I could feel his breath on my neck. "If you don't come now I'm bound to take you right here and right now a
Irresistible Temptations So sexy
I didn't remember falling asleep last night, but when I woke it was early morning. The sun barely came up over the horizon, and Asher was still fast asleep next to me.Very quietly, I slipped out of bed and found my gown on the floor. I slipped back into it as quietly as I could, and then stopped to stare at Asher in bed.He looked so peaceful and lovely. His tousled hair was sexy and I wanted to run my hand through it again, but I didn't. His tattooed arms rested next to his head as the sheet came up just below his navel, the V disappeared into the sheet to what I knew laid beneath it, and my mouth watered at the memory of last night.I turned and left the room as I headed back to my own so I could change out of the gown and hopefully get in a walk before everyone woke up.My room was barely lit from the rising sun as I made my way in. I saw Mark asleep in the bed and when I squinted my eyes I saw two other people lying with him. Tate's colleague and... was that the date he brought?
Irresistible Temptations Do you love him
"Oh, but that blonde hooker is?"Asher sighed. "Don't call her that. You should leave, Abby."Ah-ha! So it was Abby he was talking to. What the fuck was going on here?!"I should leave?! No. You should leave...with me. Please. Let's go home!""There is no home for us!! We're through!!" Asher's voice was loud now and he sounded pissed. "I don't know why my sister invited you but I certainly don't want you here.""You're an asshole." Her voice was filled with emotion and then I heard heels click across the floor as they got quieter the farther away she walked.I took a deep breath and went into the kitchen."Did you forget my coffee?" I tried to sound as normal as possible.When I turned to look at Asher, he studied me as if he was waiting for something. He pushed away from the counter and stepped up next to me at the coffee pot."Sorry. I got distracted," he finally mumbled."So, Abby huh?" "There it is," he sighed out, "You did hear then..."I turned toward him and he studied my face
Irresistible Temptations I love you
He looked like a scolded child as I stormed across his room and stopped at the edge of his bed."You have humiliated me for the last time, Asher Creed.""Layla, I'm...""Shut up," I scolded and held up my hand."You have to believe me. I would never...""If you cut me off one more time, I'm going to make you regret it." I glared at him. "Now like I was saying before I was so rudely interrupted not once but twice... is that you have humiliated me for the last time, Asher. You've hurt me worse than anyone could ever hurt me on more than one occasion. You've dragged me through the mud more times than. I'd like to admit." He looked so sad right now, but I continued on, "and when most people would turn their back and run for the hills. I didn't. And you want to know why?""Yes," he whispered."Because I fucking love you. I still love you after all these years and I can't stop no matter how hard I try. You've always been it for me, Asher. Even when people told me to stay away or tried to ke
Irresistible Temptations Not fine
Apparently, we missed Harper and Tate's departure this morning as they left for their honeymoon. Which meant we all had one more night at the cabin before we had to check out the next morning. A few people had already left because they lived far away and had to get back to work, but I was glad I wasn't going anywhere just yet.Then my mind went someplace dark and I looked over at Asher who sat next to me on the couch. His feet were up on the coffee table as the fireplace crackled beside us. I was laying long ways on the couch with my legs draped over his lap and a glass of wine in my hands.I let the dark thoughts enter my mind and I felt nauseous and anxious. I had one more uninterrupted night with Asher and then what? I lived in Seattle. He lived in San Clemente. Two states away from me! How did this work now? He couldn't give up skateboarding and I couldn't give up my job. I love it too much and I busted my ass to get that job, but as I looked at Asher, I had a feeling that if he

Irresistible Temptations Shifting perspective
Shifting perspectivesMADALINAMy stomach was upset, and my mouth was dry. Apparently, my body underwent a range of reactions due to the most important event of my new life. I would be the center of attention, all eyes filled with judgment on me. Even before, I never enjoyed public events or parties, and rather let my brother fulfill such a role. Alex was an extrovert like no other, never experiencing an increased heart rate or sweating when giving out a speech. And although I wasn't afraid of speaking up my mind, my attitude was more... military oriented? I was not good at sugarcoating or putting on a perfect-smile façade. And yet, that was exactly what I was about to do tonight.I stood before the mirror, my gaze fixed on the reflection staring back at me. Who was this woman and what did she do with Madalina Crud?Carrie had chosen for me a stunning long dress with bare shoulders in the shades of dark red. It was definitely a departure from my usual style of leather pants and milita
Irresistible Temptations Excitement and nervousness
When I first learned about Carrie's idea to throw a big welcome party for Madalina, I was a little hesitant. Ever since we arrived at my pack, my mate has faced a barrage of unwarranted prejudice due to her different background. No one dared to confront her or me directly, but the silent whispers were there. People stared. At me. At her.It was mostly due to all those horrible crimes her family was responsible for. Her family had tortured lone wolves, treating them like slaves. Sadly, even my mate took part in it, blindly manipulated by her parents. Though with each new day, I could see how much she regretted all her past actions. I may have gotten a second chance at love, but Madalina got her second chance at normal life. And she was going to prove to everyone that she no longer was the ruthless, stone-cold werewolf slayer.The atmosphere buzzed with anticipation as the preparations for the grand evening were in full swing. Decorations adorned every corner, bringing vibrant colors an
Irresistible Temptations Unwelcome news
Unwelcome newsAIDENUpon Jerome's resignation, I was faced with an enormous workload that made me truly grasp the extent of his responsibilities on my behalf. An Alpha was like a lost puppy without his Beta. Despite Scott shadowing Jerome for many years, he struggled to fulfill the role with the same efficiency. Regrettably, Scott was caught between his previous Gamma duties and attempting to assume the Beta position. Our pack was huge in size, and leading it was never meant to be a solitary endeavor. It necessitated a cohesive team, which, unfortunately, I did not have.Days started to merge, and I couldn't tell the difference between light and dark, granting me less and less time for my mate. And I hated it. I hated leaving Maddie alone, even though I could count on Carrie to keep her company. But it would be irresponsible of me to just ignore the escalating situation in my pack and simply lock myself in the room with my gorgeous woman. I was an Alpha and sometimes I needed to put
Irresistible Temptations The vampire's mark
Notre DameMADALINAIt has been a whole week since I moved to Black Forest pack, but nothing has changed significantly.My mate was incredibly busy, leaving our room early in the morning and returning at night. His Beta stepped down and he now had only his Gamma to support him. Aiden's father tried to help too, but it wasn't common practice to see a retired Alpha interfering in the pack's business. Moreover, it would shed a bad light on Aiden, putting him in the position of not being competent enough to lead the pack if daddy needed to hold his hand.. Eventually, it would motivate ambitious males outside the pack to come and conquer the place, seeing Aiden as a weak element that could be easily challenged and eliminated. Status was everything in the werewolf's world.Aiden spent the entire week searching for a proper candidate for the Gamma position. He wanted to promote the current Gamma to Beta. That man seemed to be one of a few who were loyal to Aiden and openly supported him desp
Irresistible Temptations So attractive
"Go back to your own kind. Leave our pack before facing further humiliation."I cleared my throat before speaking, controlling the fiery rage that tortured me. Oh, the fantasies that danced in my mind - to give her a taste of her own venomous words, to unleash that never-ending thirst in me, and sink my fangs deep in her flesh until she begged for her life. To punch that nasty mouth and show her true fear.But could I afford such scandal on my first day among werewolves? As much as I wished to make her pay, I concluded she simply wasn't worth the trouble with my mate. I came here to be a better person.Hence, I put my old habits aside and kept the fight on a verbal level."Oh, wow, thank you so much for your unsolicited prophecy! How fortunate I am to have you... whoever you are, enlighten me about my inevitable fate. Your concern for my well-being and humiliation is truly heartwarming. Clearly, your wisdom knows no bounds. Perhaps I should bow down and seek your guidance on all life
Irresistible Temptations Fire tango
Fire tangoMADALINANerves fluttered in my stomach when his family first approached me. Will they grimace in disgust? Will they be bothered by the presence of a vampire? I had all those questions clawing at my mind, terrifying me. But what I experienced... it was something entirely unexpected.In a flurry of introductions and warm smiles, my unease began to dissipate. I stared at Aiden's mother, who exuded a genuine kindness which I found both comforting and bewildering. Not like my own mother, who only veiled her real personality under a sweet, innocent face. My mother carried the mask of kindness, pretending to be a good person, a victim of horrible crimes for which, after all, she was primarily responsible. But the warmth in Amelia's eyes and the way she squeezed my hand indicated she was genuinely happy for her son and accepted me as I was.Aiden's sister, Carrie, was a vibrant young woman. Her presence required attention as she effortlessly owned the room with her wild and loud p
Irresistible Temptations Dislike her
"I'll get some drinks. It's time to celebrate." Carrie winked at us and rushed to one of the Omegas, splashing instructions."Okay, I guess." Maddie placed a light kiss on my lips to ensure me she would manage to survive my family. I didn't need to worry about her. My mate wasn't any shy damsel in distress. If anyone annoyed her, she would deal with it. I promised her not to be away for long and left her with mom and Carrie.On the way to my office, I met my dad. He had arrived at Black Forest pack before us."Jerome knows." He informed me shortly. I sighed, feeling how a big lump formed in my throat. My Beta had already learned about the death of his son.~~~~~~~"We are currently providing shelter for over a hundred lone wolves. The majority of them have already applied for asylum but some haven't decided yet. They still consider returning to their original village once all is settled. Anyhow, we can't accommodate them all permanently. We are running short on resources. But the disc
Irresistible Temptations Bitter toll
. Bitter tollAIDENMadalina squeezed my hand when we passed through the main gate to my pack. The Black Forest pack was one of the largest packs in Yukon, providing a home to thousands of people, mostly werewolves. We had several witches among us, as well as humans. Overall, it was a great place to live in. Despite the isolation within the mountains, our civilization thrived.The air carried the scent of freshly bloomed flowers, intermingled with the sweet aroma of home-cooked meals waffling from the houses. The streets were alive with the joyous spirit of community, as people strolled leisurely, their smiles radiant and genuine. Children reveled in their innocence, their laughter echoing through the pathways, while the sun cast a gentle glow upon their carefree games.We lived in peace, surrounded by beautiful nature, and I couldn't wait to show it all to my beautiful mate. Therefore, I was stunned when we finally arrived at my pack and the streets were empty. Gone was also the melo
Irresistible Temptations Raindrops farewell
Raindrops farewellAIDENI was glad that my mate agreed to live with me in my pack. I understood the depth of sacrifices she had undertaken to be with me. Her departure from her family was due to forbidden love and it led to her being estranged by her own parents. They cut off any future physical contact with her and although she tried to be strong and not to show it, I knew it bothered her tremendously. At least her brother, despite being a sick psychopath, stood by her side.And now, I was going to be her family and I would do anything to make her happy.When I returned to the safe house together with Madalina, the place was emptied. Only my father stayed with a couple of soldiers. He was eager to meet my mate and shook her hand a bit too enthusiastically that I had to remind him to keep it cool. As surprising as it was, my dad was very open-minded and didn't care about Madalina's origin. I assumed after all he had to go through in his life, he understood how precious true love was.
