Ynez's POV

Actually, I was also surprised when I saw that portrait. Raizen was already three years old when Jarred showed me that portrait of him and his late wife, who died 150 years ago.

"I was also surprised but Esmeralda Craig exists. She’s known for her abilities in medicine and is a loving werewolf as well. The only thing we didn’t have in common was the color of our eyes and hair. Mine had amber eyes and long black hair. Esmeralda has green eyes and red curly long hair," I describe.

As soon as my eyes lay on that picture, tears fell on my left eye, which is strange. That’s the very first and seems to be the last time that my tears fall in just one eye.

"I don’t know why but Esmeralda seems to be something that connects me between loneliness and happiness. It’s weird but that’s as soon as I lay my eyes on that portrait. They’re in love and happy yet... ah, I’m sorry. Let’s just finish our meals. I have something to say, especially about this mark," I whispered, touching my neck.

    Raizel's POVI didn’t stop Eleanor further and I want to see if she will fight and take her attacks. In the end, she let Eleanor do as she pleased. A woman, she’s a hybrid who has the power of witches and werewolves."The one who gave me this curse was the one who killed me again," Ynez replies.My eyes move down and I notice the small doll on her wrist. There’s a stain of blood on its chest. "Are you really stupid?! You let her do as she wishes again?! Can’t you learn your lesson and fucking listen to my warnings? Do you really want to die, huh?!" that woman says.The bitter and sad eyes Ynez shows while looking at her friend were the answer to her question. "Tala, I’m bound to die anyway. It’s not a bad thing," Ynez says.I dashes and pass through Eleanor. I stood behind Ynez and wrapped my hands around her. She loses her balance. The woman named Tala looks at me. She scoffs and gives me glares.I guess this hybrid knows everything. That explains her glares at me. Raizen, grab my pa

I didn’t stop her and I let her do as she wished. She even scratched my neck.Raizen must have heard the commotion and he growls. Eleanor was taken aback and when we look at him, his eyes show his wrath. He stood in front of me and continued growling at Eleanor.I covered his eyes. "Raizen, remember what mommy says," I stated.My son stops growling when I take my palm out of his eyes. He has already calmed down. All my wounds have healed already. I sighed."You never change. You’re still the same. Eleanor, you’ve provoked me. I know what you did to RLE. You really think what happened yesterday was everything that I know? You’re wrong," I utter.I take a step forward and Raizel stops me from laying m

    Raizel's POVWe stood up and checked on Ynez. Her veins were dark and visible on her porcelain skin. I grab her palm and her pulse is getting fainter. I open my lips and my fangs appear on my upper teeth.I bite her wrist and start transferring my venom to her veins. As mates, transferring venoms will serve as a potion or medicine if we are wounded and take time to heal.Her veins start to return to their normal color. I check her pulse in her neck and it starts to go back to its normal beat. Raizen shed his tears and hugged me."Thank you, daddy!" he exclaimed.I wasn’t expecting that but it makes my heart happy. It feels like a warm hand touching my heart. I just tap his shoulder. He looks at his mommy again."Uhn…" Ynez moans. She slowly opens her eyes and Raizen grabs her hand. "Mommy, I’m glad you’re awake now!" he says.Ynez tried to rise from the bed. I grab her wrist and help her. She

    Ynez's POVI wasn’t prepared when I realized where we were going. We are heading to the resort where our child was conceived. That would be a five-hour drive. I don’t want to go back to that place, but the fact that he’s with me makes me kind of thrilled."Yup, we will go back to that place and have a vacation for at least three days. I know Eleanor might go into our house or the company and try to convince me or get back at you. I know our big sisters will take care of our son well," Raizel replied. I hide my smile by looking out the window. I hope he didn’t sense how happy I am.That would be embarrassing on my part. "You can sleep in the meantime. We still have five hours to spend on the road," Raizel suggests.I shook my head. I decided to use this time to tell him about the things our son achieved while growing up in Bhutan."I will show you the things you missed during our son’s childhood. I&rsqu

We already speak with the principal, chairman, and headmaster of the academy. Don’t worry. That is just a school for werewolves. I know you’ll fit in," I stated. My son nodded and forced a smile, hiding his fear and nervousness.Now that they’re here, I will make him feel that he has a family that he can run into. He went to his room, and Ynez told me that he would fix our things in the closet.I'm in a room that I’ll use as my temporary office.

I massaged my nape and sighed."How can I trust her or believe that she'll change if she's like that? I only have a small amount of time in my hands. Ugh! I can't entrust RLE and our clan either. Can you just find another mate after I die? Ask the moon goddess for guidance."His brow furrows. Raizel breaks the glass of his juice. His hand was bleeding! "Oh my gosh!" Yza screams. I grab my napkin and wipe the blood from my son’s hands. I look into his eyes.I know that he’s mad because I keep telling them that I’m dying. I’m not rubbing it in their faces, but they have to be prepared. My forehead wrinkles.His eye color had changed into... I gulped. I cover his eyes and look at everyone. What the hell is going on?! What did I just see? "What h

I still remember vividly how much I fucking enjoyed that night.The way Ynez begs me—her body betraying her, her moans, and her insides—is driving me into sweet insanity. I caress her cheeks and smirk."Make sure to cater to my desires, Mrs. Richards. Make me crazier with you," I mumbled in her ears.She’s still staring at me. Ynez held my hand and bit my index finger. Her erotic face was the best. I enjoyed watching her expression. She looks weak and cute at the same time."I want more, master…"The way she begged, looking at me with so much love, I gave in. My manhood inside her pussycat starts to pulsate and gets stiffer again. She places her hand on her womb and looks at me."Fuck me more… Raizel," she begs. I kiss her forehead when I realize her embarrassment and desperation.I feel like she wants me t
