Wolfaraine came back to the Tower in the middle of the night, tired and ready to get some sleep. He walked to the dungeon to check up on Nalaila, she was sleeping again. After such a long, tiresome day, he only wanted to see the Wolf's face before he goes to bed. "I wish you will let me take you out for a walk, Nalaila..." He grumbled, exhaustedly.These days, she seemed to be doing better in his absence too. Before she would have been thrown fits whenever he stayed out of the Tower for long. He doesn't know if it's also because she was giving up or it's something else entirely. Not waking the wolf, he silently walked out of the dungeonroom. On the long hallway that leads to his bedroom, he began hearing soft noises ahead of him.Moans. Whimpers. It sounded terrified.They were coming from Ismena's bedroom.Quietly, he opened the door and walked inside. Soundlessly.Ismena was twisting on the bed, her body writhing. She was panting, shaking her head from side to side. She didn't sa
His hands, which were still resting on her waist, felt too warm even through the layers of clothes. She squeezed her eyes closed in an effort to get herself under control again"What do you say we go for a walk at the back of the Tower?" Ismena knows something better she wanted to do, but she found herself nodding her head anyway. With everything going on, she barely gets enough time to see him these days. She'll be happy to be anywhere as far as she is with him."I'll like that," she agreed, straightening up from his embrace. His silver-gold hair which looked tidy before, was looking disheveled because she'd curled her fingers into it while he kissed her.Her cheeks warmed pleasantly as she raised her hand and began running it through the straight hair while uncurling from his body. Her scalp tingled as he did the same to her own hair."Better," he grunted afterward, his eyes on her hair.**********************Alfred Cranes has been getting some really bad feelings in his gut. Some
"You had a nightmare last night, Ismena, come and tell me what your nightmare was about." Wolfaraine said a few steps ahead of her.Ismena exhaled heavily, before she fell into steps with him. "I did?""You did. The night before. You were crying too." He glanced at her, "What plagues your sleep?""The truth is that I don't know, Wolfie. It's not the first time I'm having those nightmares." She admitted, "I don't remember when I woke up but I get so scared... So terrified. The fear is suffocating.""You don't remember any of it? Nothing at all?" He asked, confused."Nothing. I think it has something to do with the memories of my childhood I lost. Must be an accident I had or something..." She shrugged, "Whatever it is, I have mixed feelings about it. I'm curious to know, but at the same time, I'm not. Whatever it is, I'm sure it's not good.""No, it's not. That must be why your mother is reluctant to tell you about it." He seconded. A bird flew towards him and perched on his shoulder, "
Ismena did not understand what he meant until he got to the home of Rado, the middle-aged male that was infected. One look at him, anyone can tell that he's sick. He was lying on the bed, looking very pale and coughing constantly.His mate, a beautiful woman in her late forties, was sitting beside his bed, patting his forehead with cold water because he has serious fever too."Thank you so much, Alpha King, for coming." The woman said again, smiling warmly at Wolfaraine."It is nothing, Mara. Rado was my Sentinel a year ago. I should have been here earlier, but it has been busy." He asked, taking a seat by the fireplace.The house was small but very clean and homey. It smells nice now, Ismena thought as she looked around for which of the chairs to seat on."Come and seat on me." For a moment, Ismena was sure she didn't hear him right. But, the way he was looking at her, and elegantly patting his left thigh indicated that she must not have heard what she heard. "Huh?""Oh, my dear, yo
She has fallen so in love with him, it's hard to find her feet because of how hard she fell.She kissed him. Trying to suppress the part where he wouldn't be mating her and desperately holding onto the part where she is his mate. She is the only woman destined to be with him in this entire world. His lips licked hers, sucking on her lower lip repeatedly as he moved them backwards until her back pressed against a cold wall. She didn't feel its coldness that much. Not when she was boiling like coal.He pushed his tongue into her mouth and growled, demanding that she suck on it in a grunted order. She did, wrapping her lips against his pink, velvet tongue and sucked sensually until he growled again. Then, he began a rhythmical tongue-to-tongue dance with hers that made her moan repeatedly.She held tightly onto him as her brain whirled, as her body fueled. She parted her thighs, drawing him closer in between until she felt his rock-hard cock at the very place she was creamy and needy.
All through the ride, Ismena tried calling her mother's cellphone but her number wasn't connecting. By the time they arrived at the hospital in the morning, Ismena was filled with so much worry.She rushed into the reception and spoke with the receptionist. The nurse was too busy attending to other matters that she hasn't looked her way since Ismena started trying to get her attention."I'll be with you shortly, ma'am, I just need to get these files across first. Kindly wait a few minutes, please." She spoke methodically without looking up, as if it was a poem she is very used to reciting.Before Ismena could try to explain how impatient she was, Wolfaraine stepped forward from behind her and leaned into the counter. He took the woman's jaw and tilted it upwards until their eyes met.The nurse's eyes widened to unbearable degrees as she was met with the most unsmiling, intimidating face she has ever seen in her entire face. "You will leave everything else you're doing and attend to h
Wolfaraine was in pain. His brain has stopped thinking too.This scent... He will know this scent anywhere."It's him. Doctor Hector... from the Labs." The wolf was mad. The cougar was raging insane. Both halves fought inside him.They fought over which form will dominate the male. They battled over which form will shift and take over the male's body.The one with the greatest rage was winning. The cougar was so close to the surface, that its wrath was overwhelming. It mixed with the male's rage until Wolfaraine was on the verge of shifting. He was so close...Alphose got in front of him to block him from Ismena's family. "Control yourself, Alpha King, please. You do not want to be doing this! Ismena's whole family is here, you will harm them!""W-What is going on?" Ismena asked, standing up hesitantly. Her mother and Valentina were confused, but Sandra was downright terrified. Just like she is."What is wrong with him, Alphose?" But, she could see it with her own eyes. The mountain
When did he wake up!?"Dad!" She gasped, drawing everyone's attention toward the bed."Dad!!" Valentina pulled away from their mother and rushed toward him. Amelia turned too and hovered over her husband.Ismena wanted to go too. she wanted to go so badly. But, she was afraid to leave Wolfaraine's side because of what just happened. What if he shifts to the cougar again?She was still confused about what happened. Did he mistake her father for another man? Or, is it just the anger of seeing humans together?Her bet was, he'd had flashbacks of his time in that horrible hell and he'd mistaken her father for one of those devilish doctors.But, as she kept looking at her father, she noticed something. He was not looking at them at all. He was only looking at the man standing behind her.He and Wolfaraine were staring at each other. What is going on here?In her father's eyes, there was none of those glints that suggests unfamiliarity. Instead, apart from the look of pain and tiredness on
When the full moon eventually came, screams from two women in two different parts of Naturiah were particularly high in the air because two couples were getting mated. One from the Cougar Clan, the other from the Heart of Naturiah.In the Cougar Clan, Alphose held his woman close as he gave her all that was him. She has never taken all his forms before, but tonight she was going to before the mating ritual is performed. Her sweaty body shook under his, and he could smell her fear too. He whispered words of love and encouragement to her ears as he filled her body from behind yet again and began thrusting again.They were in their bedroom, kneeling on the floor with Kassandra's upper body lying on the bed and Alphose's own blanketing hers from behind. They've been at it all night. She has lost count of how many times she has released. At this rate, her soul was going to leave her body. Alphose was the best lover she'd ever been with—hell, even the word 'best' does not do him justice. G
"I love you too, baby." He rose with her in his arms, withdrew a gold ring from his pocket, and slipped it into her ring finger. "It's so beautiful..." She cried, staring reverently at the sparkling jewelry. "It looks so good on you," he whispered to her. That night, they made passionate love together. As always he took his time arousing her body, touching her everywhere until she begged him desperately to join them intimately before he proceeded to do just that. They created the perfect rhythm together, moving sensuously and whispering words of love to each other. Wolfaraine took his time making her go wild in pleasure in his arms, he savored the cries, the litany, the sounds he drew from her as they pleasured each other for hours. Afterward, they lay together, sated and happy. He caressed her belly, cradling their child as Ismena burrowed closer to him. "I'm so glad that it was my father that helped us escape. We were victorious because of him." She played with the soft hairs
The next day, Onaries was publicly executed in the square at the Heart Of Naturiah, before the people. Crowds gathered to watch it and it gave them great satisfaction to see the shame, the humiliation on the psycho's face before he was beheaded. To Onaries, it was the worst punishment. He should have killed himself when the lab was invaded—it was better to die in battle than to be killed by public execution where the people get to laugh at him, spit on his face and call him names. He'd been tortured for days by his own Head Sentinel, Rodarh who took great pleasure from the act. He tortured Onaries until he lost his pride and begged to be killed. But Onaries, that monster, had denied him. Until today when he was publicly executed. As for the human doctor, Beloca; Alphose, and Degar had taken turns beating the man up, they carved his skin out of his own body, his screams like music to their eyes. They tortured Beloca to an extent that he stopped breathing several times, but they did
"Nothing, Miss Kassandra; I only forced your dormant hormones to come alive. My 'attempted claim' on you forced your body to wake and take on your mate's scent." He smiled a little, "Now, you practically stink of him." Sandra doesn't understand. "Him?" She asked, confused. "The Steele trying to break down that door, ma'am. You are his mate. There was a time you were very sick, right? To the extent you thought you might die, right?" Sandra doesn't need to think hard about that. "Yes, when I was very young, I suffered pneumonia." He nodded knowingly, "Whatever drugs humans used to cure you suppressed your hormones that made you a potential mate. So deeply suppressed that they wouldn't have stirred if you hadn't met your lifemate, my twin brother, and I wouldn't have been able to awake them if I didn't push as hard as I did. I'm sorry for hurting you, lass." The man wasn't as bad as she thought he was, Sandra thought, and some of her fears dissolved. Instead, joy began spreading thr
When Ismena heard the news about Alphose and Kassandra, she left the Tower and went back to Eline's house to be with her best friend. Sandra cried on her shoulders, dreading every hour that passed, every ticking of the clock because it was a reminder that Josiah was already on his way to Naturiah to claim her. She told Ismena that she didn't wanna do it. She just wants to go back to the human world. It's better to go home to live the rest of her life alone than to be with a man who isn't her Alphose. Although it killed Ismena to do it, she talked her out of it. How will she live the rest of her life knowing that she could have met her soulmate? She could have been with him, but she gave up on it? She talked her into giving Josiah a chance. After all, who knows? It might be the best decision she has ever made in her life, right? The Alpha King, on the other hand, could only pat his best friend's shoulder, commending him for doing the right thing even when the 'right thing' hurts. B
He smiled, "She is. Do you remember all your time together with her?""Oh yes. She is my best friend.""She will be so happy to hear that. It'll probably make her cry. She thinks of you that way too. Maybe even more.""I want her to stay with us forever. You're going to mate her, right?" "Yes, I will. If she will have me." Wolfaraine stated matter-of-factly. He has no doubt anymore. He wants to spend the rest of his life with Ismena. In fact, he cannot imagine his future without her in it."I'm glad. I hope she will have you, too. We will be one big family. She is so brave. She's everything you need in a mate. She always came by my room, all the time, no matter how scared she was. She came every day. I knew you two fought when she didn't come by for a few days. I was mad at you because you let her go.""Is that way you growled whenever I came close? I thought perhaps you hated me.""I never. I was just mad at you, madder, because I couldn't tell you how I felt. I'm happy you two sort
He walked into the room, quietly closing the door behind him, and took a few minutes to just stand there and watch them. The two most important women in his life. He felt lighter and refreshed, his heart filled with happiness like he'd never known before. How his life has changed in the past few months. He'd resigned himself to a bland life filled with guilt, sadness, and loneliness, never taking a mate, never having a child of his own, and living day by day with the fear of not knowing when he would lose his sister forever. But Ismena came into his life and changed it forever.He'd felt more in the past six months than he has in almost twenty years. The past no longer fills him with rage and sadness, his cougar wasn't as rough and out-of-control as before. He has a mate who is so highly compatible with him, his child is growing in her belly, and his sister, who he thought was lost forever was back to him again.Complete. He feels complete."What are you thinking so hard about?" Ism
Gasps of disbelief filled the air. The people were shocked and excited. They found it hard to believe that their King's sister—someone who they'd all given up on—would take her mortal form again after all these years. Murmurs rose in the crowd, bits and pieces of them could be heard audibly."Did you see that—" A voice said."What just happened!?" Another added."She took her mortal form again...!" "Bless the Lord!""May the deities be praised...!""Did you see that too?""...thought it'll never happen for her.""It's been eighteen years."Wolfaraine Daminor Throne stood frozen. He glanced down at the small, pale, feminine hand in his larger one. His eyes trailed from her hand to her arm, up to her shoulder, her neck, and her teary face. His throat constricted at the sight in front of him.She was more beautiful than the distorted image his mind had desperately held onto all these years. His sister was ten the last time he saw her face. His eyes watered as he gazed into eyes as blue
All the leading Alphas of Naturiah were there, the sentinels, the Betas, the Omegas, the houseworkers. He could see Eline, Mirian, and Kassandra too, even the Alphas that fought with him in the human world earlier in the day. They were all gathered there. They rose and greeted him respectfully when he walked through the door with his mate in his arm.Then they were crowding him. The joy and relief on their faces, filled his heart with love for his people. The females had tears in their eyes as they came really close to him. Some were hugging him, while the others were kneeling at his feet—a gesture of welcome and respect. They were all careful not to press tightly against him because of the woman in his arms. Ismena wiggled a bit, a sign that she wanted to be on her own feet, but Wolfaraine glanced at her and shook his head slightly."Please, I'll be careful, and I'll be right here by your side." she pleaded, a hint of her smile on her face. She knows how badly his people wanted to g
