Thank you for reading please leave a gem or any comments I will be trying to write a chapter for my unexpected mate later but I have been travelling a lot so writing has been tricky. xxx
StaceyI struggle to find the right words, trying to hold back from revealing too much. With Caleb as her mate, she may already know more than I want her to. “I need to assist Jaden with something,” I explain, seeing her raise an eyebrow as I pause. “As his luna, it’s my duty to stand by his side, but he insists on keeping me safe.” I frown, wringing my hands together before smoothing out my ponytail and tucking it over my shoulder. “It’s normal for mates to be a bit overprotective,” she says with a smirk. “I have four of them and they can be a handful at times, but secretly, I love it.” We both chuckle as I settle onto the sofa with my knees tucked under me.“I know what you mean but I can’t just be hidden away any time there is a threat we are a team,” Aurora gently sets her steaming cup of coffee on the table and moves to sit beside me on the sofa, tenderly wrapping her arm around my shoulders. ”I know it’s been difficult with Jaden. Despite our efforts to include him as part of th
StaceyGabriel and Aurora quietly approach the hospital bed, the overwhelming scent of disinfectant filling their nostrils. Gabriel’s face is lit up with a wide smile, like a ray of sunshine breaking through dark clouds. He leans down to stroke Aurora’s soft blonde curls as she eagerly reads the paper in his hands. Their eyes briefly meet before turning to Kara, who nods eagerly and her eyes glint with excitement. “What is it, babe?” Aurora purrs, leaning closer to Gabriel.“We did it,” he says proudly, his voice laced with relief. “She should wake up either later today or tomorrow. She’s going to be okay.” I grab Gemma’s hand tightly, my own hand trembling as I feel her cool, unmoving skin beneath my touch. Aurora pulls Gabriel into a tight embrace, telling him how amazing he is, and he kisses her deeply in response. Kara smirks from across the room before turning to Gabriel and saying playfully, “You owe me £10.” They break apart with laughter, and Gabriel squeezes Aurora’s ass befor
Stacey “These flowers are beautiful!” Aurora’s eyes widen in delight as she admires the vibrant bouquet of roses on the table. She watches curiously as Gabriel moves to a nearby cupboard and pulls out a jar, filling it with water before Kara carefully arranges the flowers inside. Together, they position the jar on a small side table, ensuring it is prominently displayed for all to see when Gemma wakes up. “Hi Stace,” Megan adds sheepishly. I try to ignore the weird feeling I get as I smile back. “Hi Megs,” I force a smile in response to her sheepish greeting, trying to brush off the tension that fills the room like thick smoke. Megan and I have been friends for two years now, yet she still acts awkward around me. Is it because of what happened with Jaden? Or is it something else? Kara breaks the tense silence with a throat clearing, drawing all our attention. “There’s a good chance Gemma will wake up today or tomorrow,” she announces, causing Megan’s shoulders to slump and tears to
StaceyMy heart pounded in my chest as I pushed myself through the dense bushes, my breath coming in sharp gasps. My skin was slick with sweat, and every muscle in my body burned with exhaustion. Finally, I collapsed behind a sturdy oak tree, my stomach churning from the intense exertion. Through the woods, I could hear Taylor struggling to catch his breath, his lungs heaving as he too, doubled over in fatigue. The whole world seemed to spin around me as I fought for air, my senses overwhelmed by the smell of earth and sweat and the sound of our ragged breathing.The sun beat down on my skin as I scanned the trees, searching for any signs of danger or intrusion. The leaves rustled gently in the breeze, casting shifting dapples of light on the forest floor. In the distance, I could see the other pack members going about their duties, their forms blurred by the heat haze. The rough bark of the tree dug into my back as I leaned against it, and I could feel the sweat dripping down my foreh
StaceyMy breath comes in ragged gasps as I swallow, my eyes still wide and frantic as they scan the outside world. I quickly stuff the photo into my leggings pocket, crumpling it up to hide it from sight. Gretchen’s tongue licks at my neck, her barking now ceased since we are outside. “Why were you screaming?” Aurora questions, her expression turning serious as she notices the house behind me. “Did something happen?” I shake my head, my feet pounding down the steps by the driveway as we make our way onto the street. The sound of passing cars and distant conversations fill my ears, but all I can focus on is the picture burning a hole in my thigh.As we approach Aurora’s car, its engine is still running and the sound of it fills the air. Caleb is sitting in the front seat, giving me a small wave as I glance back at my friend. She walks beside me as I carry my bag to the car, her steps matching mine until we reach our destination. With a gentle hand, she places my bag in the boot before
StaceyJaden’s insatiable gaze devours me as he approaches. In his presence, reality crashes in and the weight of Felicity’s impending return weighs heavily on my mind. He notices my troubled expression and asks what’s wrong. Without a word, I head over to my desk, hastily retrieving the crumpled picture and placing it into his outstretched hands. His heart audibly thuds as he reads the words that have been haunting me all day. The room suddenly feels smaller, suffocating even, as we both struggle to comprehend the gravity of the situation presented before us.“It seems you didn’t heed my warning. Now you will learn what it means to cross me. Check mate,”My throat tightens as I watch his eyes transform into blazing amber, his wolf pushing to the surface. “Why didn’t you tell me about this?” he growls, his anger radiating off of him in waves. “I-I’m sorry,” I stammer, feeling small and insignificant under his intense gaze. “I was still trying to process everything...how could I have t
JadenAs I stormed out of the pack house the next morning, my claws scraped against the wooden floor, leaving deep marks. The scent of anger and frustration wafted off me, causing those who crossed my path to shrink back. How could Felicity have infiltrated our pack? The thought burned in my mind like a hot coal. She must be somewhere nearby, but where? And how are we supposed to plan and strategize without her knowing our every move? It seems like an impossible task.When Stacey revealed the note, she found in her room at her parents’ house. A surge of rage and fear coursed through me. How could someone have breached the security measures I had put in place? Without hesitation, I ordered Taylor to interrogate every single member of Stacey’s security team. My mind raced as I frantically tried to figure out how to keep her safe. The only solace I had was knowing my sister Aurora, with her ability to create impenetrable shields. She would protect her from harm until I could reach her, n
JadenI step back into the room, my eyes immediately drawn to Stacey, who is lazily stretched out on the bed. Her body is a sinful display of curves and smooth skin, barely concealed by a little black lace bra and thong. The sight of her takes my breath away for a moment before I remember the pastries and coffee in my hands. She looks up at me with surprise and her eyes widen in excitement as she spots the treats. “Is that food? Yum!” she exclaims, licking her lips hungrily as she struts towards me. I can’t help but smirk at her eagerness, knowing that it’s not just the food she’s interested in. Her movements are tauntingly seductive as she reaches for one of the take-out coffee cups. Her gaze fixed on me rather than on the beverage. Every inch of her lithe body oozes sex appeal, making it impossible for me to resist her allure.I study her intently, my gaze travelling over every inch of her before scanning the rest of the room, searching for any signs that we may not be alone.
