Ryland gently placed Jasmine on the soft velvet bed, her eyes never leaving his face. He gave her a slow peck on her chin. He then turned to leave, and she sat up, her hand reaching out to stop him. "Don't go," she said, her voice soft and vulnerable.Ryland's smirk was devastatingly charming as he turned back to her. "I'm just going to take a shower," he said, his eyes glinting with mischief. "Care to join me?"Jasmine's face flushed a deep crimson as she shook her head, her eyes dropping to the bed. Ryland chuckled, the sound low and husky, and Jasmine's blush deepened.As Ryland moved towards the bathroom, Jasmine's gaze followed him, her eyes narrowing slightly. "Ryland, what's wrong with you?" she asked, her voice laced with concern.Ryland's expression faltered for a moment, his eyes clouding over. But he quickly masked it with a neutral expression. "I'm fine, Jasmine," he said, his voice firm but gentle. “What aren’t you telling me?”"Nothing that you need to know. I will tell
He slammed his lips on hers. The heat between them intensifies making the cold water which poured out from the showers a bit warmer.Ryland’s lips trailed to her nape, making her let out a gasp.“Ryland-” she whispers, but his sucking and nibbling on her skin cuts her words short, making Jasmine lose her mind entirely.Her hands unconsciously held on to his chest, she could feel her knees weaken.Ryland breaks the kiss were both gasping for air. His eyes glimmered in need. “Jasmine, touch it.” he uttered, his voice huskier than ever before. His skin was starting to glisten with sweat. His need intensified. “Come.”He held her hands and led it down and then in a second, Jasmine’s hand was cupping it.Jasmine was dazed, her palms were so little that they couldn't wrap his entire member. She was about to pull her hands back but Ryland held them captive.He held her gaze, peering into her eyes to get an idea of her reaction. A sly smirk played on his face. He kissed her lips again.“Move
Kai walked into Ryland’s study, his footsteps loud as he stepped on the woody ground. The room was quite dim as the curtains were all shut. He could see Ryland’s manly stature sitting right on his seat with his head leaned backward.Kai contemplated on what to say to him. Maybe he should tell Ryland what he just learned about, but he wasn’t quite sure. “Did you get any questions from him?” Ryland asked, his voice low but husky.Kai breathed in deeply before saying, “No he refused to say, he just kept laughing like a maniac.” He didn’t have the guts to tell Ryland the whole truth. He was scared that he might put his life in danger to save Jasmine instead. Perhaps if he separated them both nobody would die.Ryland straightened up on his seat, his icy gaze met that of Kai but Kai swiftly shifted his gaze. Though the room was dark, Ryland could see Kai clearly, his every movement thanks to his vampire features.“Kai,” he paused, then continued, “maybe I would be saved.”“What are the od
Jasmine fell onto the bed, she stared at the ceiling for quite some time trying to clear her mind of all that had just happened. Maybe a little sleep, just a little sleep will ease her worry. She could feel herself slowly drifting away. Ryland wouldn’t be back soon since he was in a meeting, so if she rested now and woke up later she would have enough strength to yell at him. Her eyes slowly closed and she found herself snoring softly. Hours had passed when she felt someone hovering above her. She snapped her eyes open to see the perfect shade of black eyes staring at her longingly. No this wasn't the time to fantasize. “Alpha Ryland,” she stammered sitting up as she rubbed the drool off her face. “Ryland…” his voice low and husky “…just Ryland.” he said as he pulled her in close, wrapping bus arms around her as he pushed her hair to the side, exposing her nape. He inhaled her scent and trailed her skin with his warm breath. For a moment Jasmine forgot what she had in mind, fro
He pauses as he gazes into her blue eyes, his hand rubbing her blonde hair.“Jasmine, I always prayed for death till I met you. Now I see a reason to live and I have to live.”“What if something happens to you? Please don’t go.” She said softly. Her eyes filled with fear. Rylands chuckles dryly, “I can’t die Jasmine. I’ll be back, and when I return I’ll make you my luna. No excuses this time.” He smiled and pinched the tip of her nose softly. Jasmine knew she couldn’t hold him back; she would have to pray he came back safely. “Ryland, please address me as little rabbit.” Ryland was taken aback then a smile crept on his face. He was pleased that his little pet did like her new name. “Always.” He drawled.“And also you have to come back because-” she paused, swallowing the lump on her throat for the words that were to come out next. “I love you Ryland.” She blurted.Rylands’ eyes widened in shock. His little rabbit just admitted her feelings. He could feel his heart doing flipflops a
Ryland, Kai, Conrad, and Jackson had been on the drive all day. Conrad was taking the driver’s seat after Kai had gotten tired. Jackson took the passenger seat beside him. Ryland and Kai took the backseat, with Kai busy on his phone, while Ryland lazily rested his face on his palm as he stared out of the window.“Ahem…” Conrad broke the silence, “Do you think it’s possible to even find the witches? They have been extinct for years and it would be hard to detect them since they fit in with humans.” “I don’t know man, hopefully, the map leads us to where they were last seen.” Jackson chimed in. Conrad let out a loud yawn, “Damn it, I feel so hungry.” His voice croaky. “Same here,” Jackson added as his stomach let out a loud rumbling sound. “Bro, you are hungry for two,” Conrad said mockingly, trying to tease him that he was pregnant.Jackson then landed a punch on his arm, causing Conrad to swell carelessly on the road. “Watch out!” Kai screeched. He didn’t see a young girl cross
“Nice to meet you again Ryland Blackwood.” Ophelia voiced out as she locked her gaxe with Ryland. Her silver shade of eyes glistening with mischief. The boys were dumbstruck. Did this lady know their Alpha. Ryland was still cut off guard as he stared mopingly at Ophelia. “Mom, you know this people?” Belinda asked surprisingly as she broke the silence. “Be good Belinda, we have guest.” She sneered, then turns her back as she walks towards the bushy path. Belinda follows behind her, when they have walked a distance she turned her back and said. “Are you going to keep staring or come find out where I live?” She snarls, and keeps following her mother. The boys looked at each other then turned to Ryland. Ryland nodded his head in approval that they can go on. They followed the woman along the thorn bushy path. Conrad and Jackson kept making a fuss about the creepy insects that crawled on them. Kai walked quietly behind the two, ignoring their antics and observing incase any danger p
The boy stared at her in a confused way. Why was she always saying things they barely understood? Ophelia could see their confusion and let out a sigh.“You need to invoke the spirit of Tala, she lies in your true mate.”Their jaws dropped. Ryland could feel himself getting uneasy at the thought of Tala. She had died long ago. Beads of sweat clouded his brow. Kai placed his hand softly on his shoulder to calm him down.Ryland swallowed, “And how do you suggest we do that? Jasmine isn’t an option.” “That's where the invocation comes in. It's life-threatening we can invoke her spirit, but whoever's body she lies in might suffer some dire consequences.” she slatted.“And what could these consequences be?” Jackson asked curiously. Ophelia frowned and then said, “Death.”Their jaws dropped, not like they didn't see it coming. “Couldn’t there be any other option?”“Well there is, but it's rare,” Ophelia stated. “The person could suffer loss of memory. Forgetting everything in her current

Jasmine had cleaned up herself after the mess she had done with Ryland. Jasmine burst into the room, her eyes shining with relief as she took in the scene before her. Danielle, freshly bathed and dressed, sat up on Kai's bed, her face aglow with a warm smile. Kai sat beside her, feeding her and chatting away, his eyes crinkling at the corners as he laughed. Jasmine's heart swelled with joy as she rushed to her friend's side. "Danielle!" she exclaimed, embracing her tightly. "I was frantic with worry! Don't ever scare me like that again!"Danielle's laughter filled the room as she hugged Jasmine back. "I wouldn't dream of it, Jas! Thanks to Alpha Ryland and Kai, who fought like lions to save us."Jasmine's gaze flicked to Kai, her eyes narrowing slightly as she took in the tender way he was caring for Danielle. A questioning look crossed her face, and she raised an eyebrow.Kai was at the scene but he didn't fight. Someone else was there, the person had protected her. She didn't get
