Sandra's heart fluttered when the door opened and Alphose walked in.She rose from the couch, smiling. The male looks absolutely exquisite, it was all she could do to keep her hands to herself as he moved toward her. He was dressed in a dark-blue, evening robe that wrapped his entire body to his ankles. Even as an evening robe, it looked of high quality and very expensive too."Hi," A lame greeting because she was tongue-tied. He is the only man that can manage to turn her brain into mush and make her lack words."Kassandra," he leaned closer and kissed her forehead.Sandra wanted more. She always did. But, with that feeling came a tightening in her chest because she might never get more. She might not be his to take.It hurts.She cleared her throat, "I got the...uhm...the arrows, the bows, the quiver, and the slings. Eline lent hers to me, so...""That's very good. Where is Eline?" He asked, looking around."She is working night duties in the Tower gates. Did you go to the tower to
She kissed him with all the feelings inside her. Her lips moved on his hungrily, her body pressing closer to his. For a few moments, he gave no reaction, which made her kiss him more desperately.Then with a groan of surrender, he was kissing her back as desperately as she kissed him. His hand went to her waist while the other one held the back of her head closer to him. His mouth devoured hers, like a starving male who was offered food.She opened her mouth and he delved into him, deepening the kiss. His tongue played with her, dueled his with hers. She let out a low, throaty moan that went into his head like liquor.Time stopped existing and every other thing went away with it. It was just them, kissing each other so long and so deep, into a mindless state of passion."By the gods," He broke the kiss at last. Sandra was going to protest, thinking he was about to pull back again. Since she found out about the mating situation between them, he has gone out of his way to make sure he n
She smiled again, this time less sad than the first time. "Anyway, Dad yelled so hard at them that they got really scared and ran away. Dad's a good yeller, you know. Those kinds that make you wanna shit your panties when it's directed at you. They never bullied me again. But Dad wasn't taking any chances. He registered me for self-defense classes so that I can be able to take care of myself.""He sounds like a great dad." "He was. The very best. Since then, I was very good at defending myself. My instructor even taught me some little tricks that are very mean and can inflict real pain when I'm faced with bigger bullies. It helped a lot." she shriveled her head to look at him, "You remember that day we met? I was gonna beat up those bastards that followed me into the bathroom. I was just too drunk to do it."His cheek widened a bit at that memory, "I remember everything about it. I tried to ignore you there but I just couldn't. Then I hated that I couldn't.""That was almost five mon
"Will you tell your mate that her father is alive?" Degar asked.They'd just finished withdrawing more of Wolfaraine's blood, and added it to the bag where Alfred drinks from. The Ring glowed from the older man's finger. He glanced at Degar, "Not yet. If he is not going to survive, I do not want her or her family to go through the process of losing him twice." "You are right." His eyes returned to the older man, "Alphose have not told me how you both managed to save him. How did you get him out of the hospital without being detected? And you did tell me that Ismena's family buried him, right?""He did die, Degar. I took his body after he was pronounced dead and Alphose helped me...after arguing that it is a lost cause, of course. We paid the morgue man a lot to not only keep quiet but to help us leave the hospital through a safer route that worked for us. The man also promised that he was gonna go through those bodies that were never claimed, find a body that could easily be mistake
He grabbed both her legs, spread them wide apart, and wedged himself in-between them with his face directly in front of her dripping cunt. She has very little curls down there, so she was very bare for his hungry eyes.As if it wasn't enough, he held her nether lips and pulled them apart to gaze at the very core of her. Sandra let out a whimper and covered her face with her hands. She has never felt so exposed, so vulnerable before in her life."Have I told you how beautiful you are, honey?" His voice was a deep growl, his eyes darkening as he watched her core hungrily."Alphose..." She sighed; a blend of shyness, nervousness, and desire.He lowered his head and took a long swipe of her, licking from bottom to top. Sandra cried out, her body almost came off the bed. It would have, if he didn't have such a death grip on her legs to hold her in place.He placed tiny, little kisses all over her pussy, carefully avoiding her swollen clit. He kissed down to her tiny, fluttering hole before
At the dive, Ismena's instincts kicked in and she practically flew out of the door she was still holding open. Thankfully, she had only one leg in the bedroom before she noticed the cougar, so it was very easy for her to disappear in a flash from the bedroom.With the door slammed shut, she stepped back as fast as she could, staring widely at the door. She kept stepping back, even after it was clear that the cougar was not going to burst out of that bedroom, she still keep drawing away from that door until she got to her bedroom.It was after she closed herself in and locked her door, did she relax. Or try to.Her breathing was erratic and her heart was pounding out of her chest. The fear in her has not abated either.She felt an ache from her arm and raised it to the night lamp by the table to look at it. That was when she noticed the long gash that was bleeding. It wasn't a deep wound, even if it looked like it. "Oh, God, Ismena... You almost died." She whispered aloud in the empty
Sandra woke up feeling very wonderful, even though the other side of the bed was empty. Oh, what a great, great day for a great, great mood!Finally, she has gotten a piece of Alphose. And what a very good piece that is! The memory of what they did together flooded her, and along with it came shivers and a fluttering in her belly. "God, that man is gooooood." She groaned aloud to the empty room, with a very huge smile on her face."I see that someone is in a very good mood this morning," Eline said, entering the bedroom. She stopped by the doorway.That was when Sandra noticed the woman, "When did you come back? Wait, what time is it?""It's early afternoon, dummy. I came back three hours ago. I see someone got worn out the night before, huh?" She smiled mischievously.Sandra dragged the covers over herself, glaring at her friend. "Don't you have something else to do?""I'm making lunch, but that can wait. Tell me, you made love with my Alpha all night, right? I know you did because
For a moment, Wolfaraine thought; perhaps, he did not hear her right. "What?"Blurting it out like that made it easier for her. "I know what it sounds like, but please think about it, Wolfe. I've been with you for almost half of the year now and we've been together in the most intimate way two people can come together. I think it's time I—""No." He said, firmly."But, Wolfe—""No." His tone was final.Silence descended between them.Finally, Ismena exhaled loudly. "You are not even attempting to listen.""You must have a death wish, Ena." He looked at her like he was seeing her for the first time, "You must have one as long as my arm because that is the only explanation why you would want to do something like this.""I know it looks like that, but this is not easy for me, Wolfe. You don't think I'm scared? You don't think I've thought of everything going through your mind now? I have, but I think—"He shook his head in adamancy. "I do not think you have thought about HALF of what is
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
