“What happened?” I inquired, but she shook her head and did not look up. Even a child could tell there was something wrong, but she denied it. I was about to roll my eyes, but I restrained myself.“Please tell me. What is the problem?” I persisted, and she sighed again, but this time she looked up.“I can’t seem to get the mixture right for the Chiboust cream for my A gâteau St. Honoré.” She said and my eyes widened. Gateau is one of the most difficult desserts to make. Being the baking enthusiast I am, I had tried to make A gâteau St. Honoré when I was merely sixteen. And I must say, it had left me traumatised to say the very least. Even so, I had given it a shot again after two or so years and after many failed attempts, I had succeeded.“Also, the pastry won't come out right no matter how many times I tried. I almost ran out of the ingredients. I might as well give up.” She groaned throwing her head back. I truly felt sorry for her.“Would you like me to help?” I asked and she look
A very familiar voice echoed through the small hall that connected the main entrance and the living room. I could feel sweat building on my forehead as I walked closer and closer to the living room. Praying, praying to a Goddess that has forsaken me long ago. Every step I took towards that living room felt like a path full of sharp thrones that tore apart me. I stopped at the doorstep, trying my hardest to hold the smile I had put on.“There you are, my dear!” My mother’s face lit up as she rushed towards me. Her eyes glistened as she wrapped her arms around me. Drawing me in her warmth that I had been dreading to feel. “Mother!” I breathed out as I wrapped my arms around her. I don’t know for how long we stood there but it didn’t feel enough.“I have missed you so much, my child.” She said as she pulled back and gently grasped my face. “You have no idea how much I have dreaded my behaviour…” “It’s okay. I don’t even remember those.” I could feel a tear glide down my cheek as I pres
My mother's words rang in my ears as I sat at the packhouse dinner table with the other wolves that night. I watched as my male smiled and laughed with his chosen by his side. I sat there watching as she passed him the dessert I had helped make. I sat there watching as he kissed her and thanked her for the food. And I wondered. I wondered if he had chosen to mate with a female who had not been bestowed upon him. Is he the one who persuaded Sigrún or perhaps plotted to mate with her? But if that was the case, then why would he call me a liar? Why would he believe that I am lying? If he was not the one who did it, then it only leaves Sigrún. I know I am not lying, and I know I did not forge the bond. Is it, then, her? Is she the one to blame? Did she somehow forge the bond with Erdem and convince him that she was his mate? I need to find out the truth. I have to get behind this. To get to the truth, I need to get to know her, gain her trust and get closer to her. I had been keeping my d
Erdem’s intense blues stared at us. He looked as if he wanted nothing more than to rip Anxo away from me, but he stayed rooted to his spot. The tension grew as Luna Sigrún entered the room. She tried her best to hide the fire of jealousy or perhaps anger that was crystal clear to me but failed miserably. I could physically feel the air around us grow heavy as Anxo whispered in my ear.“I came to get you what is yours…” He paused and glanced at Sigrún.“…and take back what is mine.”I don’t know what I was expecting to hear, but what I heard was certainly not it. My eyes grew wide as my head snapped to him. He leaned against the sofa as Sigrún placed the drinks on the table. He casually took the mug and sipped the content as I tried to process the information. Take back what is his?I abruptly stood up and grabbed his arm. “Let’s go.” I yanked him up on his feet as the hot content of his mug splashed on his abdomen and he jumped.“Where?!” He asked as I yanked him outside. “To talk!”
I was growing more and more irritated. If that Alpha Erdem was in front of me right now! I would have smacked the shit out of him! It is his fault that I am in this situation! He is a male! He should have kept his dick under control! “That jerk!” I sniffed as my eyes welled up with tears, and before I knew it, I was sobbing nonstop. “I hate him. I hate this.” As tears streamed from my eyes, I quivered. My vision became blurry from the tears, and I sat down to cry properly. I wiped my face with the back of my hand. “Why can’t I stop crying!” I sobbed as I continually wiped my eyes. “I hate this!” I screamed. “These pregnancy hormones,” I threw my hands in the air in frustration and wailed. I don’t know where I was, or where I was going by the time I had calmed down. I was becoming an emotional wreck day by day and there was nothing that could stop it. I suppose my body was trying to cope with the changes pregnancy was bringing. Nurturing a new life was never meant to be easy. But
There is true space for dreaming on this bright day, amid the frequently sweeping breeze, luminous images vanished into a white and dazzling cloud. And from the forest floor where I was lying, filtered by the fragrance of greenery above, came a light that was softened, lush, and delightfully aromatic. Nature was my sanctuary, my home. Nature kept me sane through everything. And every time something was out of place, or my heart was in distress, nature, the forest, the streams, the gardens, and the mountains called me. And my soul answered that call, and I always found myself amid the wonders of mother nature, refuelling and healing my aching heart and soul.It had been a few days since Erdem had left me at home that evening. He had tried to hide the look of fear in his eyes as he begged me not to leave the house, but I could see it. Vesna had hurried to me after he had left, and I am not sure what had happened or what she had been told or even ordered; she hadn't let me leave the hous
There were colourless shapes in that dark chamber; of course, daylight could bring brilliant magenta or darkest scarlet, but for now, it could be a scene from a black and white movie. The silhouettes were already less visible than they had been a short time before, and I looked out the window; any moment the sun would kiss the sky orange, sparking new darkness and putting an end to the birds' chorus. I sat down on a sofa that was placed in a corner of the room. When I looked down, I saw that I was still holding the dead flowers that I had replaced. The sunflowers and dandelions in my palm weren't just dead; they'd been dried like the beautiful blossoms my nan used to hang in her kitchen. The petals clung to one other, radiating around the brown centre, its beautiful chocolate colours visible even in the darkness of the room. I had no idea how much time had passed when the door was jolted open. And there he entered, with that cold expression and dead eyes that I despise so much. He st
“The Alpha has asked for your presence at his residence.” He said this with a straight face, and Vesna moved in front of me, shielding me from the guard.“Why?” She inquired, and his gaze was drawn to her.“The Alpha is under no obligation to provide you with an explanation.” He murmured coldly, and his gaze returned to me. “Come with me, or I shall be compelled to take you forcefully.” Vesna was going to protest again but I stopped her. There is no good in protesting a decision that has already been made and an order that was already sent out. I moved Vesna out of my way and spoke,“Can you allow me some time to change my clothing and I would be present there.” I dashed to my bedroom when he nodded. I put on a loose midi dress because I can't afford to show off my pregnancy. I exited the room after cleaning up and making myself look presentable, and the guard was still standing where I had left him. I stepped out of the house, and he trailed silently after me.Even though it was onl
The manor, a testament to human artistry and nature's beauty, stood proudly nestled within the lush forest. Its exterior exuded an aura of stately charm, seamlessly blending with the landscape. The foundation and lower levels showcased sturdy, weathered stones, grounding the manor with enduring strength. As the eye travelled upward, the warm hues of polished wood adorned the upper levels, infusing a touch of refinement and luxury into its grand façade. The moonlight gracefully danced upon the textured surfaces, casting a mesmerizing glow that highlighted the intricate craftsmanship.Tall and proud, the windows punctuated the manor's exterior like watchful sentinels, their panes revealing glimpses of the warm light emanating from within. Delicate lace curtains, stirred by the night breeze, whispered secrets and enticed us to venture closer, promising mysteries to be uncovered within those hallowed halls.Surrounded by a carpet of emerald foliage, the manor seamlessly merged with its na
As the night deepened, the celebration took on a life of its own. The wolves joined hands, encircling a central bonfire, its flames casting a warm glow upon us all. Erdem offered me his hand and I gladly took it as we danced around the mighty fire. The wolves with their other halves joined in, swaying to the melody. We moved to the music, our bodies swaying in unison, a collective expression of gratitude and reverence for the cycle of life. I could look away from his majestic blues as they were fixated on me, a gentle smile adorned his beautiful face as he led us through the dance. In the middle of the dance, Ezio ran to us, freeing himself from his uncle, Anxo’s arms. Erdem bent down picking him up and with Ezio between us, he continued to lead us through the dance. The biggest smile adorned Ezio’s glowing face and the melodious sound of Erdem’s laughter filled the air. In the arm of my males, I was overwhelmed with gratitude and my heart was filled to the brim with love.After the d
As the sun began its descent, casting an ethereal golden glow across the forest, I found myself standing beside my male at the edge of a circular clearing. Our wolves, dressed in traditional attire adorned with intricate floral patterns, surrounded us. The air was alive with anticipation as the beats of drums and the melodious tunes of instruments filled my ears, transporting me to a realm where nature and magic converged.The rhythmic drumbeats quickened, pulling me into a trance-like state. My senses heightened as I observed the wolves gracefully swaying and twirling, their movements mirroring the very essence of the blossoming flowers and ancient trees. I too joined them, leading them as each and every step of us carried the weight of centuries, invoking the spirit of renewal that springs a sacred ritual to invoke growth and fertility. The energy in the clearing shifted, and a sense of reverence settled upon us. We formed a large circle, interlocking hands and hearts, as one of the
"What's going through your head, my love?" he whispered, his voice laced with a potent mix of growing arousal and anticipation. His fingers pinched my already sensitive nipple, causing a delightful mewl to escape my lips."Stop doing that," I managed to breathe out, my voice trembling, as his sweet torture on my breasts continued."Why?" he whispered, his warm breath grazing my earlobe, sending shivers down my spine."B-Because..." I struggled to complete my sentence, my thoughts scattered, as his hand ventured south, gliding over my dampening pussy, igniting a fierce fire within me."Fuck," he groaned. I could feel his cock rising to its glorious height, pressing tantalizingly against the curve of my back. And needless to say, we were dreadfully late for breakfast.The spring festival was on the verge of commencing, with the afternoon sun lazily sinking towards the horizon. Time was slipping away rapidly, leaving me with just a few precious hours to ensure that everything was perfect
"Shush," Erdem's voice, hoarse with desire, whispered urgently as his palm clamped over my mouth, attempting to stifle the shameless moans of pleasure that escaped my lips. With each deliberate, slow thrust, he ignited a fire within me, his sensual movements shaking my very core. I could feel his deliciously hard cock swelling inside my dripping, aching cunt, signalling his impending release.His tongue traced a scorching path along the fragile skin of my slender collarbone, trailing upward until it reached the tender expanse of my bruised neck, adorned with the vivid marks of his passionate love bites.“Nesta!” The way he uttered my name, dripping with a throaty, sonorous arousal, caused my pussy walls to clench tightly around his throbbing cock. With a primal grunt, he thrust himself deeper. My quivering legs, wrapped around his waist, instinctively pulled him closer, craving every inch of him. A bead of his sweat trailed down his scorching flesh, teasingly finding its way to my exp
He thrusted into me relentlessly, a powerful rhythm that shook me to my core. One of his hands tangled firmly in my hair, exerting delicious pressure that amplified the sensations. His teeth grazed along the sensitive skin of my neck, leaving a trail of electric anticipation in their wake. With possessive determination, he marked his territory, a tangible reminder of our shared primal connection.The force of his thrusts was both unyielding and controlled, an intoxicating blend that left me craving more. There was no gentleness in his actions, but I knew he had yet to unveil the full extent of his prowess. The hand that gripped my hair gradually travelled downward, igniting a frenzy of anticipation. When his skilled fingers found my sensitive bud, my sanity teetered on the edge, and I was lost to the depths of pleasure. A guttural moan escaped my lips, desperate gasps for air punctuating each exhilarating stroke and tantalizing circle he drew upon my pulsating clit.With every thrust,
A breathy moan escaped my agape mouth as I watched him feast on my soaking core. His mouth lapped on my core expertly. The tip of his tongue teased my already swollen and throbbing bud. He moved slow, his tongue going up and down. When he started sucking my swollen bud, the tip of his tongue going up and down, my eyes rolled back. My back arched involuntarily as I closed my eyes, the sound of my moans and the sinful sound of him lapping on my wetness filled the room.He bit down making me gasp out and as I looked down his warning eyes were fixated on my face. With both his hand, he had my legs spread and he went on with his feast. As he continued his ravage, I could feel the knot building in the pit of my stomach. Leisurely but firmly he fucked my pussy with his tongue while I ground myself against his thirsty mouth. The feeling was pure euphoria, yet I craved more. I wanted all of him.“Erdem!” I brazenly moaned stirring my pussy further into his lapping mouth as I felt myself tippin
My lungs greedily filled with oxygen, but the respite was fleeting as his lips crashed against mine once more. Our mouths fused together in a feverish dance, tongues entwining, each kiss an inferno that threatened to consume us both. Lost in his intoxicating trance, I could feel the throb between my legs intensify, a relentless ache that demanded attention, driving me to the brink of madness.A plaintive whine escaped my lips, a primal plea for some form of release from the searing desire that coursed through me. Erdem, ever attuned to my needs, responded with a swift and primal action. His hand, once resting on the table's surface, abruptly shifted, landing possessively on my bare thigh. Fingers dug into my flesh, a delicious mix of pain and pleasure, drawing a desperate mewl from deep within me. His mouth, ravenous and hungry, devoured the sound, capturing it with a possessiveness that mirrored the hunger within us both.“Where should we take this?” He breathlessly asked as we pulle
I entered the grand hall, my heart fluttering with a mix of excitement and nervousness, my hand securely wrapped around Erdem's arm. The weight of our precious bundle, Ezio, nestled in his father's embrace, added to the warmth and love that radiated between us. All eyes turned toward us, the spotlight shining on our new family as we stepped into the limelight.As we made our entrance, smiles began to spread across the faces of the crowd like ripples in a calm lake. The air buzzed with anticipation and joy, their eyes welcoming us into their embrace. It was a moment of pure bliss, feeling the acceptance and happiness emanating from those around us.Just as we were beginning to settle into this newfound sense of belonging, Ciro appeared, his Luna in tow. A rush of familiarity and comfort washed over me as Ciro approached, a beaming smile on his face. We embraced tightly, the years of separation instantly fading away, replaced by the unbreakable bond of friendship. Ciro congratulated Erd
