"Do you think it's possible to have the company opened before the full moon?" Williams asked me, grazing his hand on the fine breeds that we came to check out at the stables. He had come to inform me ten minutes ago that the fine stallions I ordered to be trained for my upcoming ranch business just arrived. It was one of the best news to be heard today because I have been looking forward to their arrival for weeks now.This is one secret between me and my Beta. My horse business. It was unheard of and can even be considered sacrilege for a King to be involved in the business of common people. Particularly, fickle-minded people like my mother. I will be toasted."I think I can handle it. Perhaps, after the wedding." I shifted to the next stallion, a black Arabian striker. I patted the ears, earning a face rub from the horse. There was something about this creatures that applied to my inner senses and seem to calm me. It reminds me of the little werewolf from the other day. I haven't t
An eerie silence existed between us as the door clicked close after his mother. I froze, only realizing then that I should have left with her instead of leaving myself at the mercy of the dangerous man before me.I expected him to attack me abruptly and beat the hell out of me as is typical of most mates when they don't desire you. What I didn't expect was for him to calmly stroll to the couch and collapse on it, exhaling in defeat as he hunched forward and wracked his long fingers through his brown shoulder-length hair.I swallowed hard, suddenly feeling guilty. Is it that bad? Perhaps, I shouldn't have told the mother all that I did. I was left with no choice when she asked if what I said to the guard was true. As though she charmed me-more like an entrancing spell that made me divulge everything to her-including the ones she didn't ask me."Are you happy now?" He asked in a brisk breezy tone that caused the air to stifle around me. Possibly, he could hear the sound of my heartbeat
The lady that came in turned out to be his younger sister as I suspected. She has been the one to stop our verbal brawl and had informed him their mother asked her to take me to my new chamber and get me settled.And the brute had punched the wall close to him which dipped under the force of the clash. But he didn't show any form of hurt as he whipped past me and slammed the door.It was happening like in the movies. One I didn't recover even as the lady guided me out of the house and led me through several halls and a spiralling staircase until we stopped in front of a brownish-black door and she pushed it open and led me in. "This is going to be your bedchamber...""Gwendolyn," I provided, understanding she didn't know my name. "Gwendolyn Hills." I finished."Wow, you have such a beautiful name, Gwen." I smiled, looking about. This room was gorgeous. Everything about this place screamed riches, fortune molded in plenty. Yet, I felt nought but abject emptiness.When I was a pup, my m
The days passed by in haste that in the blink of an eye, the wedding day arrived.These days I hardly know what I am doing. My life seem to be spiralling out of course, a course I didn't have any control over.From the second day, just as Abigail informed me, preparations commenced and because it was a fast wedding, the normal pace required to plan the wedding was skipped. Even the wedding planners had to live in the palace so that they don't have to leave as they had to work overnight to get everything to be successful on the Dday.I was excited but mostly frightened. The former was because I was getting married to my mate as I have always dreamt of, but on the other hand, it wasn’t to the love of my life, albeit, to a man who I haven't seen with my two eyes since that very day he promised to wreck hell on my life.Still, I couldn't back out now. I was a pussy, afraid to go back to my people but rather accept every nonsense that would be hurled at my face in this place where I don't b
I lay there for a long time listening to the constant sounds coming from downstairs from those celebrating as they waited for the evidence of my virginity. Meanwhile, my mate was nowhere to be found. I smiled sadly and stood, going to stand by the window and unlatched the locks, throwing the curtains wide open to let in large gusts of evening breeze. It calmed me. For some odd reason, it reminded me of home and made me feel perhaps, my people might not be here, but the wind from home is here to comfort me. The door rattles and at once, I became startled. A dark figure loomed by the entrance, his head dipped to the floor with his hair falling to his face as he regarded me. Lustfully.My heartbeat started spinning out of control, my hands behind me holding on to the window slab, returning his gaze.He started striding towards me, one step at a time. "You tricked me into marrying you, you good-for-nothing woman."I swallowed back the odious comeback at the tip of my tongue and just watc
Ashton."I feel like killing you right now, dickhead! How dare you do that to her? She is our mate!" Fangs whined, jumping about in anger as he tried to unleash but I reined him in, standing at my favourite spot over the cliff that overlooked the wide expense of my Kingdom as I looked on aimlessly. I knew I had gone overboard last night with what I did to our mate. But I will never feel guilty over it. I warned her. I gave her a chance to back out. To come to me and accept my rejection. But she was stubborn. What was she thinking? That I will change my mind? I scoffed and took a swig from the bottle of black Whiskey I came out with. "You keep whining like an old crow but it won't change nothing, Fangs.""I hope you choke on that substance and die!" He has never been this mad. But I understand. "This is just the beginning," I ventured, not even trying to pacify him. He growled and tried once more causing me to stagger back, my eyes changed colour but I gritted my teeth hard and shoo
GwenWhen I woke up this morning, it was Kora shaking me awake rudely to tell me that the former Queen had asked me to dress and come down with my husband to greet the guests. I had looked to the side of the bed to meet it cold and empty, only the changed sheet evidence of what took place last night-my virginity had been mercilessly stolen from me by that cruel man. Instead of crying, I had nod my head and told her I wanted to be alone. Fortunately, she was glad to oblige, leaving me to myself to feel pity for the life I had successfully plunged myself into. I didn't cry, not even tears budged to spill as I stood in front of the mirror in the bathroom and looked at myself. It seemed after yesterday at the altar, something changed about me. I lost my courage. I became a new person. A scared person. I should have fought him harder, kicked and cried until he let me go, but I couldn't. Instead, there I lay and watched him desecrate me and then left without even a consolation. When I
Instead of fleeing, I did the unthinkable, I placed my nose on his bare body and Inhaled deeply. It was like an elixir, casting unknown spell on me. "Mmm...smells so good."His body vibrated with the thunderous rumble of his growl and before I knew what was happening, he smashed me on the door, grabbed my neck and obtained my lips in a heated kiss.He kissed me so hard that my knees wobbled, my hands going on an adventure of their own in his large frame. Soon I was flying up to land on his waist, looking so small as compared to his large frame. I wracked my hands through his hair, unable to contain the hunger I felt inside me. My hips was moving, grounding on his as I felt his large manhood prod me from under. "Yeah..." I sighed.In my euphoric daze, I didn't see him move out of position until I was colliding with the softness of the mattress and him coming on top of me to continue devastating my lips with his sumptuous ones. "Arh!" My chest lifted up from the bed as his hand found
