“So tell me how did you cry so much?”“Onions,” Anastasia stated simply. “My saliva is also a faster healer, faster than yours, but I discovered ages ago that tears repair the skin almost instantly. I think it's because it's harder to produce. But I could make myself sad so I had to use my fake tears that don't work as fast, but still faster than my saliva.”Leo nodded along. “Very interesting. What else have you discovered then.”“That thing about my hair, but I haven't tried it out yet,” Anastasia frowned, “it mentioned somewhere that if I am an omega my heats are special. It didn't explain how though.”“We still have 2 weeks before we find out how though,” Leo murmured, then smirked at her cockily. “I can't wait.”Anastasia laughed and rolled her eyes fondly. “Oh, I know you do. I also found out that I will age slowly, my hair will never grey and that the chances of me birthing more than one pup are high.”That made Leo stop walking momentarily. “So twins?” He asked. “That would
Anastasia thought about what happened that night as she relaxed in the garden, experimenting with the paints she got as Julia read over all the books they found about pure whites.“I think Logan burnt your hair, maybe that's why you felt him,” Julia suggested.“Yeah that sounds realistic, but I'm confused on how it works,” Anastasia muttered. “ All the book said was to burn the hair, do you see the vision in the flame? I gave him the most basic information and just told him to experiment, it seems like he figured it out on his own.”“Get Leo to burn your hair, or as Logan when he comes back,” the beta replied.“I'll ask him tonight, what else have you found?” Anastasia deflected the topic. It was annoying her a little how nobody knew that much about people like her but they were so highly regarded.“They mostly say that you are blessed by the moon and have everything the moon represents. You are a beacon of light in the darkness, fertility, immortality, purity, guidance.”Anastasi
Could we go to the rest of the nurseries tomorrow?" Anastasia asked Julia when they passed each other. "Oh, there's no need," she said, smiling at the omega. "Why." "I already went when I had some free time. You were busy with all that paperwork so I decided to do you a favor . We still have to check out the two big schools though." Out of all the work Anastasia was swamped with, visiting the nurseries had been her most anticipated because she could interact with more pack members. Right now she only knew the people who worked in the compound and some people who popped in now and then. The beta at the nursery was a part-time worker. Thankfully, she didn't like that beta at all. The nursery work let her escape the office room. Still, Julia did her a big favor that she had no reason to do. All she was supposed to do was take care of Anastasia's personal needs and anything else. Yet she still helped her out when she didn't need to. "Thank you," Anastasia said, hugging the beta. "Should w
They both maintained eye contact as Leo got her to fully remove her lips till the tip, then sinking completely down. The pace was moderate as they carried this on. Soon, the thrusts became shallower and Anastasia felt the stretch increase, she whined as she felt a knot at the base, causing Leo to swear at the vibration and pick up more speed. The omega forced her teary eyes to stay open, wanting to see the alpha release into her mouth.Anastasia 's orgasm came up, nowhere near as strong as it was when the alphas touched her but enough to leave her moaning more, mouth completely slack and eyes closed as she felt Leo grow even bigger from the feeling.Leo closed his eyes tightly as he fucked into Anastasia’s mouth, his knot drowning and reaching halfway. He chanted fuck, again and again, relishing the feeling of his omegas mouth on his cock. It felt heavenly, nothing like anything anyone else ever got to do.He let out a loud gasp as the knot caught her lips, his seed seeping into her
Logan came back during the late morning of the fifth day, hours before he was supposed to. It was a pleasant surprise for all of them.Anastasia was lounging in the garden after Leo had left to do some work, they had just fucked each other and Anastasia was still glowing even after a few hours. She saw a vision again, it was Logan but he was on his horse, riding through the forest.“I'm about half an hour away,” He said in the vision. “I'm coming.” The vision disappeared before Anastasia could say anything, the alpha must've used the last of her hair to tell her that.Anastasia immediately ran out of the garden, leaving Julia alone in there. When the beta shouted asking where she was going, she just replied Logan back and ran as fast as she could across the compound to where the alpha would be coming in from . She was slightly disappointed to not see her alpha there, expecting for him to arrive immediately. She slumped down when she realized she still had to wait another 20 minu
Anastasia was still swamped with work. A fireplace was going to be added to one of the infirmaries whilst the workload was low because when summer came around preparations for celebrations would be on, and Autumn would be busy with preparations for the oncoming cold winter.When she had spoken to some of the builders, they advised her not to do the work now, because it would be months until it would be used. It irritated the omega so much how the alphas were undermining her when her mates had also agreed with her on the matter. She knew he was still very much a baby when it came to leading, but that didn't mean she couldn’t work. Watching the calm expressions on the alphas’ faces morph into apologetic was greatly satisfactory. She may have a kind face but she was still capable of standing up for herself.Later that day, after she had finished the meeting and set up a plan for them for the fireplace, Anastasia went with Julia to one of the older schools with another group of builder
Anastasia was straddling his face and she felt another pair of hands-on her as Leo licked at her nub.The display of strength made her so horny, she had such strong alphas that could hold her up in the air and fuck her like that. She moaned shamelessly as Logan made her bend backward, her head resting on the alpha’s shoulders as he tilted her head for a sloppy kiss while playing with her hole .Leo Carried on licking her intimacy , avoiding teasing her and instead full-on attacking it with his lips.Anastasia gasped into Logan’s mouth when a tongue and finger dipped inside of her from both ends, the wetness shocking her. She was already turning into a limp mess, losing all control of her body as the alphas dominated her. No matter what position they were in, the alphas were always in charge, and they made sure she knew it.She was bent more until she was upside down, Logan arms supporting her back as he angled his dick with Anastasia’s mouth, the omega opened up eagerly. The familia
"Who do you want first?" Leo asked , both alphas staring at her in question. Her heat had come the next morning and they had just finished all the foreplay, now it came to getting knotted. The omega had been freshly stretched out by Logan’s mouth and thick fingers, and her mouth ached a little from Logan’s knot. Anastasia anxiously looked between the two cocks, unable to decide which to sit on first.When her scent rippled into the first tangs of distress, Logan was immediately pulling her onto his lap.“How about my knot first?” He whispers. Anastasia nodded eagerly, thankful that she didn't have to make a choice.She was glad at this point that she wasn't in control in the bedroom, the only thing she was able to decide was if she liked or didn't like something. She was too indecisive and making choices took away the pleasure she felt. Her alphas did everything correctly, they knew how to please her so it was fine. The alpha bent her over and gently put the tip in, waiting for h
March 26th “These flowerbeds are going to look great this summer.”Eden leaned against Ian by the window of the large living room, above the flowerbeds that Johnson and his men, including young Trubshawe, were preparing, burying the flower bulbs.“Amara is growing, too. It's late March, spring is in the air.”Ian put his arm around his omega’s shoulders and drew her closer. It was still a shock for him to know she was his.“Do you think it's possible to be this happy?" asked Eden.“No, not usually," he replied, smiling. Then he leaned over to tickle Eden’s earlobe with his tongue, watching for her reaction. “But I know lots of ways to enhance the sensation.”“Oh, I know that.”Eden tried to react like a respectable viscountess and show a little reproach towards her rascal of a husband, but she hardly succeeded.“As it happens," Eden whispered to him in an engaging voice, "we have no obligations either this afternoon or this evening. I've kept us a few moments free, since we're packi
Ian made it his own, sensing that this was their real first time. The alpha forced himself to control his desire and keep an eye on Eden’s, which rose and rose, until the final conflagration, the simultaneous deflagration.“My love…”Ian gasped again. “Forever and ever. Forever and ever.” “My omega,” Ian whispered, stroking the back of her neck.Ian looked at his omega with such tenderness, as if he couldn't believe he had it all to himself.“You're mine, aren't you Eden?” The alpha asked, looking tall and majestic above her“All yours” Eden nodded vigorously, her breath catching as she felt Ian’s hands wrap around her ankles, caressing her calves before spreading them apart, making more room for between her thighs“Yes," Eeen murmured, "yes, all yours, mark me.”“Are you sure?”“Yes, I want to be yours, completely”Ian let out a tiger-like growl just before he bounced on his prey, before leaning in, his mouth hot and heavy as he rubbed his lips across Eden’s cheek, up to her chin,
“Sir”It was Philips' voice that brought Ian back to earth; he'd just lost the most important person in his life.“Sir." Philips insisted in the face of his master's silence. "I'm sorry to disturb you, but we await your orders. It's getting dark, the current is preventing us from crossing and continuing our search, so I think it's best to go back inside, get warm, regain your strength and start again tomorrow. Also, you'll have to prepare for the worst, sir, with the low temperatures and the cold.”“Are you mad?” Ian asked, his voice full of fatigue but above all full of bitterness. “Excuse me, sir?”“My wife has just been carried off, I don't know where she is or what state she's in, and all you can tell me is to go home, get warm and prepare for the worst. So I repeat, ARE YOU CRAZY?”“I'm sorry, I…”“Enough... Send Jem to tell my Aunt and Alexis to take care of Amara. Then gather all the men near the clearing with the best hunting dogs you can find. I want everyone to get to work,
Ian first saw the shattered pillars of the bridge, then a wavering figure stepped out to meet him, a small dog barking frantically at his heels. Ian jumped down from his saddle and Toby leapt into his arms. A baby's cries could be clearly heard over the roar of the river.“Where's my omega, Philips?”“Still in the car, milord. With the maid and the baby. The footman's a little hurt, but he'll be alright. I sent him for help. It was the floodwater that caused the bridge pillars to collapse as we drove over...If we make any sudden movements, it'll cause the rest of the bridge to collapse.” Ian put the dog down and ran along the bank, the coachman on his heels. When he reached the carriage, Ian had to fight the urge to jump straight into the water to save his family.“We need ropes, horses and... Ah, thank God, there's Murrow!”The carpenter galloped down the hill, pulling his wagon team along. When he reached the bank, he braked with the reins. The men with him jumped down from th
We'll go down to the hotel, Mary," she announced to the maid, pulling from her bag the London guidebook she had taken from the library. Let's see which one is the most suitable..The horses slowed as they took the path that led to the bridge over the river. Eden glanced out the door at the fog-shrouded landscape, then back to her guide. “The Pulteney looks to be the most comfortable and central," she explained, trying to keep her tone light, "but it's certainly very expensive. Let's see.”The sedan lurched forward and, at the sound of hooves on logs, Jimin realized they had reached the bridge. There was a terrible creak. The coachman screamed and the sedan pitched sideways. Eden tried to grab hold of Amara, but her hands could only clasp Mary's dress as Icy water invaded the darkened cabin. They had fallen into the river.Ian waded to the edge of the torrent, the water almost completely submerging his high boots.“Too late," he announced. The dam's already broken. There's no way
Breakfast the next day was more tiring than Eden had imagined. Ian behaved with impeccable courtesy. He smiled at her, spoke to her politely, and when Eden sent the servants away so she could talk to him about what had happened the day before, Ian simply shook his head.“Let's not talk about it anymore, Eden. We've got to put it behind us. Your nerves were on edge after a few days at the reception.”Eden wanted to apologize, to explain why she had lost control of herself. If Ian pretended that nothing had happened, would she be obliged to leave for London and let this unspoken issue hang over them forever?There was a knock at the door, and Jackson entered. Behind him, several men in working clothes could be seen gathered in the corridor.“Lord and Milady will excuse me," he began, "the rains have caused the river to burst its banks. Turner sends word to the lord that he fears the mill dam may break.”“I'll be off then”Ian put down his napkin, stood up and walked into the corrido
What had happened? What had gone wrong? Ian contemplated in the deserted corridor, as stunned and shocked as if someone had just cut open his chest and ripped out his heart. He'd thought he'd made Eden happy and brought her security. But that had only been an illusion, which had now been shattered. He didn't know how he was going to make things right, or even if it was possible. No doubt Eden was in her room. Toby stood at the door, whimpering miserably. Ian knocked on the door, then turned the handle. To no avail. The bolt was pulled. Swearing muffledly, he tried to open the boudoir door. Locked too, as was the door to the baby's room. He knocked again.“Eden?”SilenceStriding to his own room, Ian tried to open the connecting door. It too was locked. Exasperated, he pounded his fist on the panel.“Eden, my angel, will you please open the door?”Through the wood paneling, he heard the child's startled cries, which put an end to his anger almost immediately. Amara must b
The day after the christening, it began to rain heavily, much to Eden’s dismay. With her brief experience as mistress of the house, she wondered what he was going to do with all her guests, on a rainy Saturday, after matins and lunch. But her worries proved futile. The bishop retired to his room to read his sermons, the older ladies took up their embroidery, telling each other the latest neighborhood gossip, while the younger ones obligingly kept the children occupied and did a thousand favors for Amara, as well as for Leon, Iris and Jasper’s baby. The alphas had disappeared. Some of them had withdrawn from the bishop's sight to play cards or billiards, while others had gone to visit the stables. As for Eden, she sat quietly, sometimes making sure the babies weren't too tired, sometimes simply enjoying the rain drumming on the windows and the crackling fire in the hearth. Jasper entered the room, his hair soaking wet, and leaned over to whisper something in Iris’s ear. She loo
——6th of January——— “Your Grace”Eden gave a deep curtsy like Alexis had taught her to do. Immediately her hands were grabbed, and one of the most handsome young men she had ever seen helped her to her feet.“Please, call me Alastor, " replied the Duke of Avery, kissing her on both cheeks. “Ian,” he exclaimed enthusiastically, “where did you find such a pretty omega?” “Just looking at her to know you don't deserve it.”“You can let go of her now, Alastor,” Ian said quietly, smiling. The look on his face, however, indicated that he was ready to slay any man who got too close to Eden, whether he was a duke or a prince.Eden felt overcome with excitement. She was a little apprehensive about this baptism reception, but, for the moment, everything was going wonderfully. The only downside in recent weeks was that Ian avoided sharing her bed, probably to let her rest a little after giving birth. Since Amara’s birth, however, the alpha seemed more distant than Eden would have liked. W
