New BeginningsGraciously, I descended the stairs beside my fiancé, Clyde, into the grand ballroom of our family’s magnificent mansion.Around fifty family members and business associates had gathered for a cocktail party to celebrate the recent acquisition of Mancini Global Estate. After months of negotiations, the other party eventually yielded to the influence of the Mancini’s and accepted their generous offer.Tomorrow, Clyde and I would be relocating to the headquarters of this acquisition in Latin America, where we planned to live for several years. We were also excited about getting married there. So, all new beginnings.My fiancé had my hand possessively in his as he looked down at our guests.As a skilled businessman, Clyde had spearheaded this successful takeover. I supported him throughout the process as his assistant; yes, my fiancé and I worked together in his office. There had never been any tension or competition between us; our great understanding was the foundation of
Delighted, I cuddled up to him and breathed in his scent. His body scent of fresh dew mixed with musk was so addictive. In fact, I had learned this habit from Clyde; every time he saw me, he stuck his face into my neck to inhale my scent.Sometimes he licked that special spot on my neck, igniting a scorching fire that got us straight into bed. The delicious shots his tongue sent down my neck to my triangle didn't stop until I felt my fiancé deep inside me. Clyde was a fantastic lover, not that I had any comparison, but I couldn't imagine anyone else being able to make me feel so completely satisfied.Suddenly, I felt my temperature rising, like I was on fire. This was new; this wasn't the familiar fire I got when Clyde got me so excited that I couldn't think of anything else but him. This was a more significant feeling, ignited from the outside and forcing me to seek it out.No, I wasn't drunk; before I went downstairs with Clyde, I had only had a glass of liqueur, and that could neve
"Mate? What exactly do you mean?" I asked, dazed. "Who are you?"I couldn't take my eyes off his. The man took a few steps and stood close to me. His arm went around my waist and pulled me into his chest."I'm Alpha Abel of the Woodland Pack. And you are my mate and Luna," he answered, still staring at me. "My wolf Hex and I are furious with you. How dare you plan a future with anyone but us? And pups? You know it's impossible."My God, what was this man talking about? Clyde was my fiancé, for God's sake, and there was no one else I wanted to have a future with."Sir, can you explain what you are talking about? I don't know what you're indicating here." And then I felt it again, that captivating energy, but this time it was holding the man who called himself Alpha Abel bound with me. I tried to tear myself away from him, but my limbs wouldn't give way."You are mine! And I have no intention of letting you go!"In the blink of an eye, his lips captured mine, a real firework exploded th
"Ahh, please ... spare me, this is too much ... I can't have any more".Exhausted, I tried to get away from this seemingly insatiable man. We've been having sex for several hours now, I was sure my pussy was torn out. I'm totally spent. Like an animal, he has taken me again and again, in every conceivable way. Not that I minded, on the contrary, I enjoyed it and did my part.But now I had so many orgasms that I could hardly feel my legs under me. And just when I thought he had had enough, the opposite happened. This man was a real beast in bed, taking me in all imaginable positions. After each of his climaxes he would just clean me up and start all over again.And now the Alpha has turned me over on my stomach and lifted my ass.This was probably his favorite position. And then he filled me hard while grabbing my breasts from behind. My quivering walls clung to his pole and once again my pleasure flared up. I started to shake uncontrollably, his body co
The ringing landline on the nightstand jolted me awake. Still groggy, I answered and immediately recognized Clyde's voice on the other end."Baby, did I wake you up? I'm sorry. I ended up staying at the mansion with my brothers because the meeting ran longer than expected. We were all pretty beat up afterwards from such a lengthy discussion and decided to crash on the couch for some rest.""Hey, it's not a big deal, okay? We're heading out today and aren't sure when we'll see them next. The main thing is that you spent quality time with them," I reassured him. "Are you coming home now? Should I send the driver?""No, we're heading to Alessandro's house to collect some more documents. I'm sorry, I won't be able to have lunch with you at home," he said regretfully once more. "The guards will load the remaining suitcases and then take you to the airport. I'll meet you on the jet.""Not a problem. I still have at least four hours, so I'll catch some more sleep and see you later, babe." A
The car sped through the hilly terrain, swiftly carrying us along. The air was distinctly fresher compared to the busy New York as we traveled through expansive stretches of untouched forest. A gentle breeze blew, yet the temperature remained exceedingly high, more than I could tolerate. When we got off the plane earlier, I instantly felt the sun's intense heat on my skin and beads of sweat forming on my forehead. Even though my jumpsuit was made from thin fabric, my shoulders were bare and exposed to the sun. I was not prepared for this, so I didn't pack a hat. Gosh, if only I'd taken the time to research more about this country online! Clyde shared some facts with me but didn’t provide much detail. Luckily, the car's air conditioning was blasting at full power, making our journey to the new home quite tolerable. Occasionally, we passed by pastures where small cattle roamed contentedly in search of food. In some places, farmers were diligently tilling their fields with tractors. N
We drove through a heavily guarded gate into a secluded community.The area was impeccably clean and well-organized, with neatly maintained roadsides and landscaping. But most impressive was the architectural style of the houses. Only millionaires could afford such property, it was plain to see. An average contract worker wouldn't even be able to afford the land in this neighborhood.We pulled into the driveway of a spacious mansion. Although it was smaller than the one in America, it boasted an impressive modern design. The facade promised a cozy atmosphere, and the landscaping was expertly crafted.I gazed around the place in total amazement. "Did you purchase this or is it a rental?" I asked Clyde, who had come to stand beside me."Purchased. But if you don't like it, we can choose a different one or even have our own custom-built. We also have the option to do some renovations here since the location is excellent," he suggested.“No, no, babe. You've got me wrong. This house is in
In the following weeks, I found myself enveloped by the warmth and enthusiasm of Mariam, Sybille, and Natali.Clyde, on the other hand, was deeply immersed in settling into the new business. He had countless meetings with staff, government officials, and attended numerous business luncheons. Together with the management team, he was tirelessly adapting the success formula of the Mancini empire to fit the needs of the local market.Meanwhile, we women were engrossed in planning the wedding.Mariam had flown in ten exquisite dresses from renowned designers in America and France. Each dress was a masterpiece, making it nearly impossible for me to choose which one to wear as I walked down the aisle. We each had a different favorite, which added to the challenge of deciding on the perfect makeup and theme for the reception.Every night, I collapsed into bed, utterly exhausted. Clyde was no different. He often came home late, finding me already in bed. He would snuggle up to me, his hands
Alpha Female Janice’s Point of ViewI could feel his constant gaze burning on my skin. He was following me like a shadow, always there, lurking just out of sight. It was a phantom presence that drove my wolf, Mena, to the edge of madness. She whimpered and paced within me, yearning for her mate. It was a primal need to be near him, to feel his presence, but for me, it felt impossible. How could I approach someone I didn't know? I needed to see his face, to know where he was hiding, before I could even begin to bridge the distance between us.Adding to the growing tension was the undeniable urgency of my impending heat.A wave of warmth was starting to radiate from deep within me, a slow, insistent burn that threatened to erupt into a consuming wildfire. Another day, perhaps even less, and I would be forced to isolate myself. I would need to seek refuge from the unmated wolves that my scent would inevitably attract. It would be a siren’s call to them, an irresistible, magnetic pull. I
The Alpha decided we would extend our stay at the hotel for another three days.He stated that it was to strengthen our bond. Once we arrived in Woodland, he explained, many would demand my attention, and my time would be consumed by pack orientation and other duties. He dreaded losing these precious moments with me and wanted to use this time to allow me to grow accustomed to his constant presence.And he certainly didn’t waste a single moment doing so. The Alpha was constantly near, his intense physical contact a continuous reminder of his desire. His eyes, always on me, held promises that made my breath catch in my throat.At meals, he insisted on having me sit on his lap, feeding me small bites as if I were a delicate bird. His hands were never still, constantly caressing my arm, my waist, sending shivers of awareness through me. His kisses were frequent and passionate; he made it clear to everyone I was his. To my surprise, none of our companions seemed to find this behavior unus
Joanna’s Point of ViewThe Alpha’s arms around me felt intoxicating.A wave of warmth spread through me, a sense of calm I hadn’t realized I craved. I longed to simply lean against him, let the romantic music sweep us away, to lose myself in the moment.Once we arrive in his pack, I think there will be many such occasions, quiet moments of intimacy and connection. I could feel the pull of his attraction, a tangible force that resonated between us.The Alpha’s story about our past largely aligned with what Clyde had told me. However, he had carefully chosen his words, subtly excusing himself from any wrongdoing. He spoke of a “new meeting” between us, but the truth was, he had kidnapped me, taken me against my will. His justification was his right as my mate, but he conveniently overlooked the fact that I also had to agree to the bond, to accept him. And from Natali’s stories, I was fairly certain that I had loved Clyde deeply, even then, and I hadn’t been ready to give
Joanna was a whirlwind of energy, a fanatical singer lost in the music.She sang along loudly with the lyrics of the love song the live band played, her face beaming with every line. It was a captivating sight, her joy infectious.I wrapped my arms around her from behind, pulling her close, and we swayed gently to the rhythm. She melted into my embrace, tilting her head back so that her warm breath caressed my face. The intimate touch sent a shiver of pleasure down my spine.Watching her, truly seeing her this happy, was all the entertainment I needed.She closed her eyes, completely lost in the beat, her hands resting on mine, which were firmly placed on her belly. This was how I wanted to hold her forever, here in my arms, where she belonged. The thought settled deep within me, a sense of rightness I hadn't felt in what seemed like an eternity.“You don’t know how beautiful you look right now, baby,” I whispered huskily in her ear.The words were inadequate to express the depth of m
The moment we entered the restaurant, we were greeted by a wave of laughter and music.The place was packed, buzzing with chattering voices and the sound of clinking glasses. Just perfect. The crowd offered a convenient excuse to stay close to Joanna and subtly breathe in her intoxicating scent. It had lodged itself into my subconscious, igniting a deep-seated longing within me.I spotted a high table tucked away in a quieter corner, a perfect retreat from the bustling crowd. I gently guided Joanna towards it, my hand resting lightly on the small of her back, the warmth of her skin radiating through the thin fabric of her dress. The others trailing slightly behind.Once a waitress took our drink orders, Elena initiated the conversation.“Joanna, it was pure coincidence that I recognized you in the boutique,” she began casually. “We arrived here a few weeks ago after leaving the Moonlight Seekers. But we couldn’t find you there and were already on our way back to our pack. What brough
Alpha Abel’s Point of View As soon as my mate stepped out of the elevator, her scent washed over me, a wave of pure sensory bliss.That delicious vanilla, mingled with the delicate fragrance of fresh morning dew, conquered my senses, turning my world upside down. She was breathtaking in that red dress, a garment I knew Elena had chosen for her. My secretary certainly had good taste, although I was surprised that Joanna needed assistance in the boutique.Women, to my knowledge, were usually sophisticated shopaholics, their appreciation for an item increasing proportionally to the price tag and the willingness of someone else to foot the exorbitant bill.But not my Joanna. My mate was different.Elena’s investigation reports indicated that she came from a simple background. Joanna was adopted by a lower-middle-class couple who now live comfortably off the salary she gratefully transferred to them. The Mancinis had essentially taken over her entire life,
Joanna’s Point of ViewMy heart hammered against my ribs, I was nervous as hell.I checked my reflection in the mirror for what felt like the hundredth time. The dark red dress, tight at the bodice and flowing loosely from my hips, flattered my figure. It was Elena’s choice, a woman I wasn’t sure whether to call a friend or simply an acquaintance.“Hey, take it easy, Joanna,” Janice’s soothing voice cut through my anxious thoughts. As a werewolf, she could likely hear the frantic rhythm of my heart. She gently stroked my back, a reassuring touch that calmed my breathing somewhat. Taking my hands in hers, she stood in front of me, her gaze steady and supportive.“You know what?” she suggested. “Let this be a new beginning. You don’t remember him, so think of this as a blind date. If the chemistry is there, build a relationship with the Alpha, honestly and sincerely. He feels the bond with you, and if he’s smart, he’ll give you the space you need to adjust.”It was the unspoken implicat
Alpha Abel wrestled with his inner wolf, Hex, who was practically vibrating with impatience.‘I want to see our mate,’ Hex growled, the words echoing in Abel’s mind like a physical demand. “Let’s pay her a visit. Now! ’He yearned to hold Joanna again, to reassure her, to whisper promises of protection and love.’In a few hours, you’ll have every chance to admire her, ’ Abel countered, attempting to maintain a semblance of control. ’Let’s go back to our room and get some rest ourselves. Bet it’s going to be a long evening.’’Sleep? ’ the wolf growled angrily, the word laced with disbelief. ’Why would I want to sleep when my mate is staying in the same hotel as us? She should be here, in our arms. That’s where she belongs. ’Shaking his head, Abel stepped into the elevator, the doors sliding shut, offering a brief respite from Hex’s relentless prodding.’I warn you not to rush her, Hex,’ he threatened. ’She doesn’t remember us. We have to regain her trust. Imposing ourselves will only
“I want to see our mate,” Hex, Alpha Abel’s wolf, growled insistently, the words rumbling deep within Abel’s mind.He longed to hold Joanna again, to feel the warmth of her body against his after so long. All he wanted was to reassure her that everything would be alright, that she didn’t have to worry about anything. He would take care of her, protect her from any harm. The need to be near her was a burning ache within him. “In a few hours, you’ll have every chance to admire her,” Abel pointed out. “Let’s go back to our room and get some rest ourselves. I’m sure this is going to be a long evening. I won’t let her go away easily after searching for her this long.” “Rest?” the wolf growled again, this time with a sharp edge of anger. “Why would I want to sleep when my mate is staying in the same hotel as us? She should be with us, sleeping in our arms. That’s where she belongs.” The primal possessiveness in Hex’s voice was undeniable. Shak
