-RAINA’S POV- Casting an irate glance at him, I blinked twice and retorted. “You alpha-commanded me while you were in my mind. You prick!” I slapped his hands from my temples and the headache heightened its volume. “Uh!.” How am I supposed to reject him now? I hissed as the lancing pain overpowered my bubbling rage. It was this minor issue that obstructed my fists from ramming at his chest. Was I truly stuck with him like a stream of bad luck? It seemed that the moon goddess was fully drunk and overdosed when she decided to write my story. Because, like an uno reverse card, everything in my life was going in the wrong direction. A smirk tugged at his lips and his slyly glinting emeralds darkened with arousal and intrigue. “I figured that would be your next move.” He chuckled, and placed his thumb under my chin, tilting my head up. “The guy that came to your room wasn't me. That's not the future we'll have.” Positioning both hands on the dresser to cage me, he leaned down and averre
-RAINA’S POV- Valen’s grip-locked entrapped me in the same sitting position on the dresser. The intimacy was obvious. Candid embarrassment prickled heat around my ears and my throat bobbed once. The forty-nine-year-old omega floor supervisor stood at the threshold with a plastic yellow serving tray in her hand. “Luna.” Meera greeted me with a lovely smile and I shyly nodded. “Alpha, I brought what you requested.” “Come in.” Valen broke his hold and I almost whimpered at the loss of his touch. Meera approached in her black and white maid’s tunic. Valen took the small bowl of grapes, almonds, and tangerines pulps along with the cup of warm cocoa from the tray, and an artfully folded yellow napkin. To hide how awkward I felt, I brought a large section of burgundy hair over my shoulder, mindlessly raking my fingers through it. Meera winked at me and I managed a half-smile. Apparently, she liked our pairing and the sight of our intimacy pleased her. Giving a shallow dip of her head,
-RAINA’S POV- Putting a pause on the grinding, Valen devilishly smirked, leaving a teasing small space between us. “If I touch the entrance of your pussy, and you aren’t wet, I’ll leave and never bother you again.” “W-what?” I breathed out, but the desire betrayed my aghast expression. I would lose for sure because my panties was already soaked, and he could very well smell it. “It’s a stupid deal.” His jaw flexed into a smug grin as his stare regarded me with such immense power. “Then you have nothing to lose.” Shaking my head. “I won’t accept.” Something was tugging on my heart, whispering naughty things that my body understood. “You are playing dirty.” "Maybe I like playing dirty." He smirked ardently and pushed his lips so close to mine that they grazed with every word he spoke. “Why shouldn’t I want to be dirty with my mate, hmm?” “Fuck you, Valen!” I blurted out in an attempt to kill the chain of thoughts rising in my head, as well as to offend him. “When you talk so dirt
-RAINA’S POV- Jealousy swam in the depths of Valen’s piercing orbs. Despite the wrath of a territorial male who felt threatened by another, his hold on my waist remained gentle. "They're maintenance. And it's to fix the door that you broke." I charged, pointing at his chest. Valen’s thick brows pulled together with a frown etched across his handsome features. He grasped my hand in place, and when I tried to snatch it away, he kept it imprisoned in a tight hold. "I'll fix it." "When, huh? When cats can play the fiddle?" With a cheeky attitude, I implied that he did not have much time for me. "Baby, don't say that. I'll do it." He promised, ruefully. Yeah, right! I complained inwardly, betting that maintenance would get it done before he ever did. His thumb drew lazy patterns on my left cheek, and it calmed us both, evaporating the angry air. “How about this?" As a solution, he waved a hand and cast a white wall mirage there which blended in with the rest of the room, making it ap
-RAINA’S POV- Without lifting his head, Valen’s mouth continued to eat my pussy. There was a certain skill to his delicious manhandling. With my legs over his shoulders, he moved both of his long warm muscly hands and grabbed my arms. In that position, he hoisted me up from the dresser with my bottom pressing against the base of his neck and meandered over to my bed. Gently, he lowered my ass to the mattress. All this time, his mouth roamed my pussy, and he settled on his knees. Mewling, I laid back, gripping the sheets. At one point, he licked from my butt upwards, sliding his nose and tongue up through my nether lips. His nose came out so wet and shiny. “Please, goddess! It’s so sensitive.” I yelped. The sensitivity between my legs was killing me. Next, his tongue shoved past my entrance, and he ejected a randy growl, “Mine!” “Ah,” I squealed. It sent my body flying into paradise and my pussy shivered at the warm penetration. My hands flew to his hair, grasping it tightly and
-RAINA'S POV- My brows curled upwards as I let loose chorus lines of moans. The circular motions of the head of his iron cock caused my brain to vacate my body. Truly, I wanted to feel the rest of his dick inside of me. It was a sweet, blinding torture. I was so engrossed in immense pleasure that I could not think. All I could do was feel. Therefore, Valen paused to adjust himself. He changed his angle by shifting half of his weight sideways to rest his left arm beside my neck. His right hand guided mine to wrap his throbbing cock, directing me to pump it. As I jerked off my mate with him hovering above me, a deep groan sounded in the back of his throat and his right hand cupped my pussy. He slowly inserted his finger deep inside me, watching my reaction. I gaped, hardly breathing. Ever so slowly, his fingers pushed in and pulled out, and his thumb began to stroke my clitoris. It was the push-button to nudge my pelvis towards his finger as he drew it out. My mouth sought to kiss h
-RAINA’S POV- “I do not like that you have the upper hand. You take what you want, and you’ll keep taking until Snow comes to take you away from me.” I retorted, feeling like I’d been wronged. “I cannot overlook the fact that you’ll have another mate.” “That guy from the future was not me, Raina.” Frowning, Valen growled deeply, and my pussy pulsated from the sounds vibrating in his throat as he captured my mouth to assert his possessiveness. This time, his lips showed no mercy as he kissed me with all his feelings pouring out. I kissed him back with the same urgency as we both fought for dominance with our tongues. Adorably, he smiled when our lips parted as though we were not in the middle of a disagreement. “How are we going to break up when you can’t even reject me?” That pissed me off. I shook my head in contempt. “You are still such a jerk.” In my heart, I didn’t mean it, and Hera yelled at me not to say that. This mate bond was winning in a game that I did not wish to be
-RAINA’S POV- Between us, a golden silence trampled through. We were both waiting for the other to say something first. “Raina.” Valen summoned my attention. I was afraid to meet his eyes, lest he would witness the hurt and humiliation that pressed for release via tears. I should never have questioned him about his feelings. It was the fast approaching footsteps that force me to look at him as he proceeded towards me, fully dressed. “The guys and I spotted some methane bubbles in the witch territory that show that someone was interfering with the dimensions. I have to follow that lead since it has been difficult to locate my brother because it might be the Worgens.” He swooped me up in his strong arms like a child and I shrieked. He carried me to the bathroom while speaking. “Time in the dimensions are different from ours. It could move faster or slower, so I’m not sure when I’ll be back. Either way, you know what I expect.” Sitting me on the white marble countertop in the middle
-VALEN'S POV-Materializing in the darkness at the foot of their king-sized bed, I found my parents spooning in a cuddle, deeply sleeping.Dawn's light hadn't graced us yet, but this was important, so here I was. I tried not to startle them, although they had to have smelled my presence through our wolves’ kin bonds.“Mom. Dad.” I kept my voice soft enough.With a snap of my fingers, I flicked the ceiling light on without their permission. The illumination flooded the vast, opulent master bedroom. This should spring them up."Valen?" Mom complained groggily, squeezing her closed eyes. She scrunched her face, lifting her hand to shield her eyes from the slap of the brightness.“Grrr,” Dad growled his annoyance and muttered inaudibly. He kept his eyes closed as a sign that he was not going to entertain me. His strong muscular embrace tightened around Mom's waist as he buried his face in her neck.They made no move to see why I had disturbed them like this, but I wasn't going away.“Dad,
Hello Lovelies,I though I would have been able to upload a chapter by now, but as it is, I can hardly find the time to do so.As mentioned some time ago, two relatives passed away in previous months. The first funeral will be this weekend and the second will be held the Saturday before Christmas. As such, there is a lot of preparations to do as well as to accomodate and entertain guest and visiting relatives.Therefore, I am here to apologize about the delay in chapters and kindly ask for your understanding because this month is not so merry for us.The story will resume soon.Thanks for your patience.#Much love!Virtually yours,O'Chantal.
RAINA’S POV-Valen’s brows creased, looking baffled. Then he tutted dismissively, not taking me seriously.“It is taking a toll on your body, and you must do it before Gamma Blayne releases her from the cells,” I said, searching his face, but all I saw was confusion. I dropped my gaze, afraid of his hesitation.Slipping his fingers from mine, he lifted my chin to bring my eyes to his. “Tell you what, I’ll send Mercedes back to Canada.” My chest tightened. “It’s not the same.” I lowered my gaze to keep my composure. I focused on the steady beating of his heart to smother the ache piercing through mine."Baby, look at me.” He demanded my eyes and when I flicked them up at him, he added, “There will never be a third party to our mate bond." His conviction was strong, and I wanted nothing more than to believe him.“Stop denying it.” I retorted, nudging him in the side with my elbow. “Mercedes came on board sometime last night, and you didn't even stop her.”Valen became serious now, and
RAINA’S POV-Goddess, I truly hoped I was wrong, but where the hell were they? Plus, it would be better to be there with Valen when he found them, or all hell would break loose.The rest of the day went by quietly. Mom and Dad went off to their meeting with Alpha Vance which ended before dinner. It was a somber event at the pack house with none of the usual light-hearted conversations, just small strategic talk and planning, heightening security, and so forth.Gamma Blayne was sending the elites in deep to help pinpoint the enemy's location. The warrior’s role was more to defend and support where they could block any retreat and aid if they could.Worry scraped on my heart. This wasn't cops and robbers and the bad guy would get jail time; this was life and death.Dad was supposed to flank in from the west and attack with Valen, who would be coming in from the southeast. Their plan sounds solid, but that’s if Valen returned safely. Other than that, something was bothering me, but I hav
VALEN’S POV-“You think you can threaten me.” I blasted, pumping a rigid fist at him as the vermillion red in my eyes marinated in resentment. “You think Selene can save you from me? Never see Raina, my mate, again in any lifetime, get it?”“I will, and I shall,” Gustav challenged."Shut the fuck up," I boomed with such immense power that the temple shivered, and foggy dust shot backwards.At my fastest speed, my feet thrust from the ground and I darted at him, too quick for him to dodge the clasp of my hand clutching his neck. I hoisted him off the ground by his throat, letting his feet dangle as they desperately searched for solid ground, while mine took root on the floor."You feeling tough now?" I growled with hatred in my voice.The Worgen extended his claws and sank them into my arm, piercing them deep until they hit the bone and my blood trickled out, splattering the floor. Because of that, I hurled him to the ground. He coughed and gasped for air, while struggling to stand up.
-VALEN’S POV-“Gustav!” I roared, nakedly stomping through the circular pillars with Zuzu perched on my right shoulder. “Get out here!”Chasing him brought me to Pindus in Greece at the Temple of Zannos. It was an albescent-white, Doric-styled, pentagon-shaped building that lacked care and was covered with limestone dust. On the walls were featured engravings of weapons and symbols that I also recognized were identical to the ones that were inscribed on the Worgens' foreheads.“No need to be so loud, Alpha Prince.” Gustav groused with his back to me. The hem of his cream trench coat carpeted the ground, right next to his enormous sword. “Even the gods can hear you shouting.”Up ahead in the dusty grand hall, he was down on one knee with his white head bowed to the light blue, marble, fifty-foot statue of Selene. She was gracefully sitting on a crescent moon with a beige wolf around her shoulders as she glanced down at the queen of the night flower she was holding up in her left hand. T
-VALEN’S POV-“Holy fuck.” I panted out as the sweet sensations rocked me.Her pouty candy-pink lips began moving up and down my length. She started bobbing her head back and forth. My hand coiled a large bunch of burgundy strands on the top of her head, helping her with the pace.“Deep breaths—yeah, take it.” My lips parted, and I blew out invisible puffs of air.The pleasure was overwhelming, almost making me forget what we were fighting about before. She picked up the pace, fisting the bottom of my shaft with one hand while she sucked the top and repeated.“So good, baby,” I remarked huskily. “Show me how badly you want it.”Already my balls were tensing up and stars exploded behind my eyelids as my orgasm drew near. She hummed around my dick, licking it good as I drew it out of her mouth.I grunted and thrust my hip forward with more force this time, hitting the back of my throat. Her pretty mouth was driving me nuts. The way her tongue moved against the ridges was giving me a whi
-RAINA’S POV-Yellow flags billowed in my head as the mood shifted sourly. Hot, angry puffs of air expelled from Valen’s nostrils. His blazing emeralds locked with my subtle blues.“Hold on a sec.” I scrambled to the edge of the bed and sat up with a frown. “That’s not what I’m saying.”“Really, Raina?” Valen asked me with hidden anger in his voice. “That crab-louse took Vaheed, and you aren’t in a hurry to get my brother back, especially since that’s the only way for us to find out what happened to Devin.”“I know that,” I muttered in a casual tone, licking my dry lips.“Vaheed isn’t with us because of him.” Valen’s voice rose, and he raked back his black hair with a frustrated hand. He turned and walked towards the glass doors to the balcony, aggressively parted the green drapes, and looked out into the gray sky.“I want to summon Gustav, but I don’t know how,” I expressed, feeling crappy that he had a valid point. “Plus you have that murderous gleam that you are going to kill him w
-RAINA’S POV-Brewing with optimism, I watched in awe as the lavender glow disbursed, engulfing Devin's body in a gentle aura of shimmering energy. Like an X-ray, it lit up his skeleton, making it visibly orange with red veins.It was as if the very essence of magic itself was sieving through him, whirling new life into his motionless form. His body was healing, closing the gruesome wound on his chest and reconnecting the superior vena cava."Hang in there, Duke. Your boy is strong. He can make it." Alpha Vance tried to provide some solace.Uncle Duke began pacing while ruffling a hand through his blonde hair. “Come on Smithson, the moon can’t have you today.”Valen's expression was one of intense concentration. His features were set in determination as he exerted more streams of his magic into Devin.For a moment, time seemed to stand still as we held our collective breath, waiting with bated anticipation for any sign of change.And then, it happened.A faint ripple sifted through De
