Caliana's POV"Are you alright?" He asked, he was concerned. I nodded my response but he didn't believe me. He caressed my cheek in the most gentle ways and took me outside the house with him. He took me to the garden where his motorbike was. "I was going for a ride, join me," He said, handing me a black helmet. He had a nice motorbike that reminded me of the one Tristin had. I took the helmet. "Safety first, please wear it," I looked at him for a long time before I did as he asked and put it over my head. He did the same and he got on, I followed suit."I'll take you somewhere, so hold on tight okay," "Okay," My voice was hoarse, probably from the crying I did. I held onto him closely and inhaled his scene, he smelled so good. I lay my head on his back as he took off on the road. As we moved, all the sadness from earlier was disappearing and I lifted my head in the air but immediately regretted it as I felt drowsy. Alpha Edward took me to the pack's backroads, I'd never been here b
Caliana's POV"Well and good, I just don't see why I was dragged into your program of going to a restaurant," I said sharply, angry that I couldn't have a bite of my tasty salad. "You couldn't make my food, the least you can do is watch me eat, wife," He emphasized the word wife. "I don't know how to make what you wanted," "Hmm, you can't make anything!" I wanted to retort but he stopped the car and my gaze traveled around the area we were in. "The dockyards?" I murmured, opening the door. "There is a couple who make the best Garlic butter shrimp here," He told me and I frowned. The harbor was quiet at this time of the night. It felt peaceful and I wanted to run to the beach but stopped myself. "I didn't know they were adequate restaurants here," I frowned. "Expensive taste?" "Nope, I thought you did. You're the wealthy Alpha here,"He circled his arm around my waist as we went to a restaurant. It had a beautiful lantern path along the stairs and was situated in a place where w
Caliana's POVThe next day, I only saw the Alpha during dinner. I smiled to myself when I remembered last night. We were halfway through dinner when a servant announced that a captain from the border was here to see the Alpha and a tall intimidating man walked into the dining room. Love was taken away by the servants before the captain spoke."Sir, there was a fight at the border with the Black Stone Pack," he reported."Situation?""Two of our warriors are badly injured and currently receiving treatment and three of theirs are dead, the others ran away,""Who started the fight?" Asked the Alpha, furious."It was the Black Stone Pack, they trespassed and while chasing them, more of them came out of nowhere and attacked our patrol men, we had to call reinforcement as they were outnumbering us,""Damn fucking Henderson, he never learns!" Roared my mate."Henderson?" I stuttered, my eyes bulging. Is it the Henderson I know? The Alpha who follows me around? No one seemed to hear me thank
Caliana's POVThe next day I woke up earlier than usual because I needed to get some things done. I went to the new construction site for the elderly homes to inspect the project, and they were coming up well. One mansion was done already so we needed to start decorating it for occupation as the elderly members were complaining that it took a long time. Merabi, Steven, and I went to check out the decoration and pick out furniture. "These old people can be demanding, can you believe I was sent the colors for types of furniture, and apparently, the pool is small," He said. The "Golden Stone Pack did know how to treat the elderly well. "Those people built this pack, they are soldiers who fought to be where we are... If they want a pool the size of a house, they'll have it," Merabi said. "I'm just saying they are quite demanding," He sighed. Merabi and Steven have a relationship of mouse and cat, but they manage to work well together. We left the stores and went to the food court, we w
Caliana's POV"And what is it you want to know," He gritted, his fist clenched and his body shaking. "Everything," "Why?" "Because that's when I'll fully feel like a member of this community, your Luna," I said. Not knowing anything and him holding on to his former mate hurts me badly, and the fact that people are secretly comparing me to her is doing no good to my mind's health. I'm curious by nature! Alpha Edward chuckled darkly, repeating the words 'your Luna'. "My Luna, you're not mine, you are the Luna, Caliana Meyers," "But I don't want that, Alpha Edward!" I interjected. I hopped out of bed and held his wrist. "I want to be YOUR Luna first," I said on the verge of tears, he was stunned that I'd say that considering our relationship, I just confessed that I wanted more. His eyes gave nothing away as he looked intently at me. "I want to be by your side, to hold your hand but It will only happen when you finally let her go for good," He snatched his hand away and ran his fi
Caliana's POV"Repeat what you said," I asked. "Love Jane Chasia is my niece, she is my late sister's daughter; Jane Anne Henderson," He said and everything in my mind went into a frenzy. Jane Anne is Henderson's sister? How did she find herself in the Chasia home? As I can recall, their bad blood started ten years ago when Alpha Edward killed the former Alpha of the Black Stone Pack during a battle, the man challenged my mate and he lost. "I didn't know," "She doesn't know either. The last time I was close to her was three years ago, my mother kidnapped her and the last time I set my eyes on her was when she was on a school trip to a nearby waterfall, she didn't recognize me," He said, I sensed hurt in his tone. "Why don't you visit her, is it because you and the Chasias are enemies?" "Caliana, do you know how Jane Anne died?" He asked and I shook my head negatively. "The douchebag Alpha watched as rogues tore my sister apart after learning about her identity," He growled, his h
Caliana's POV"You disappoint me, Caliana," I turned to the gruff voice, I swallowed thickly and backed away from him, his eyes were gold as he approached and before I knew it, my legs were already in the pond."What do you mean," I asked, my legs were getting cold but I didn't want to leave. His aura was calm. He sat on the bench. "You have been here for a few months now and never have I seen this fear in your eyes, not even the day you got here," He said. "I'm not- scared- of you," I stuttered. "Then why are you standing in the pond when it's this cold?" He asked me. He stood up and walked to me, he extended his hand to me but I shook my head. He looked nervous now, and he sighed, running his hand through my fingers, he was FUCKING gorgeous. "Did you watch as rogues kill her?" "Who?" "Jane Anne," "Who told you about her?" "It doesn't matter," I retorted. " Did you do all those things to her and her pack?" He sighed and said."You are safe with me, Caliana, she was a differen
The kiss was kind and sensual, his fingers were caressing my sides and tears rolled down my cheeks ' What do you think you're doing, Cali?' My wolf gasped. ' Getting my revenge on that so-called mate of yours," I retorted. ' Not like this,' I blocked her out and pressed my chest closer to Dean, making him breathe sharply. I pulled away, Dean was still stunned. I went to sit on the boulders and faced the mountain. I couldn't believe how bold I was to do that, and I knew Alpha Edward felt the sharp pain of a mate's betrayal in his chest. The pain wouldn't be as much as it was when he had sex with Candace the day I got to the manor but it will be there." That was unexpected," Dean said as he sat next to me. " You didn't like it? I saw your needy gaze and went for it," " You kissed me because you're doing me a favor? Don't make me laugh," " I had my reasons... We both got what we wanted," I said. He sat next to me, an hour passed and another. " You should go home now," I heard Dea
RileyFor the first time in over three years, I slept peacefully. I didn't wake up in the middle of the night to gunshots, threats, or a beating. I was safe, In my mate's home. I was running away from Labrone a few nights ago when I came across this pack. I knew exactly which pack this was; everyone did but I ran in here anyway or else, Labrone's gang members would have found me and taken him back to him. I couldn't go back, Labrone didn't care about this child, all he cared about was having an heir to succeed him in all his dirty deals and I refuse to bring a child into this world for that business. ' He will not stop looking until he finds you,' My lycan sighed, she was tired as I was of all the shit we've been through and was only happy to find her mate. ' We'll hide, and if Garret rejects us, we'll go far from here and start anew,' I told her and she whimpered at the thought of our mate renouncing us. ' he won't reject us!' ' We are having another man's pup. No one will blame
I inhaled and exhaled, running a hand through my hair. " I think I should go," she said in a quiet voice." No, please. It's not safe out there with this weather," I said. The hurt look she gave me made me feel anxious in the pit of my stomach, " Follow me," All this was weird for me. My mate was at my house. What happens now? ' So what if she's pregnant,' Koen who was stunned into silence finally spoke. ' I can't, not in her condition, C'mon,' I said. ' She's ours, Garret and I want her,' he was solemn. I left the room as soon as I showed her how to use the bathroom, and went downstairs to prepare a hot meal for her. I don't remember how to use half of the things in the kitchen, so I Facetime Caliana to help me but like me, she's not too good in matters of the kitchen. " Why don't you eat from here?" She asked. " I found her," I suddenly said. She froze for a while before a smile broke on her face. "You found your mate?" " Yes," I confirmed. She was going to scream but didn'
My Lycan was whimpering. ' stop it, you're annoying me,' I snarled at him. ' Let's find her,' he said but I shook my head. He wouldn't stop bugging me so I stood up and grabbed my keys before leaving the warm apartment. It had started raining now ' I'm going back, I'm not braving this weather for a woman I don't know,' I declared. ' No, we'll just check in the alleys, town square, maybe also in abandoned buildings where she might take shelter, then we'll go back,' he said. ' My pizza will be so cold when I get back,' I grumbled. 'Forget about the fucking pizza and think of that poor woman,' Koen said. ' Since when do we care about people,' ' There is something about her and I want to know what,' he said quietly. I furrowed my eyebrows in confusion. Koen was acting strange today. The valet brought me my car and we drove through every street near the hospital. The Golden Stone was the largest pack in the region and if she left this area, there was a chance we won't find her but
GarretI never cared much for love or women. I had women, so many but they were just there to satisfy my desires. I was the life of a party, and I lived for myself. I was going home on one Saturday night, running away from all the females that were hovering over me and trying to take advantage of drunk me when a woman hit my car. I grabbed the door open and stepped out, staggering a little as I was still drunk. " Why the fuck was she running into the middle of the road," I murmured. I crouched down to the woman and turned her on her back. I was instantly enchanted by the beauty on the floor. She had smooth flawless honey skin, long lashes, and plump lips. Her eyes were closed and I wished so much she could open them. ' You fucking idiot, you've hit her with the car! Carry her and take her to a fucking doctor!' My inner lycan, Koen, roared. He was frantic. ' Relax, she's not dead. I can hear her heartbeat,' I retorted. I grabbed her and carried her to my car but I was using a sports
JamalI am watching the naked beauty sleep next to me. I can't believe what we did after all that we have been through. All the breakup and running away, the fights and making up.'You fucking bastard, you did it!' My brother beams through the mind link. I look at the ring around my finger. I can't believe we eloped and got married.'How can you deny me this, you know how important it was to see you get married,' Caliana scolds,'I'm sorry, you can throw a small party tomorrow evening but nothing grand like you planned or we'll leave again,' I warn.'Fine,' she concedes.Caliana has been rooting for us since the beginning of our relationship and promised to throw us a lavish wedding but we couldn't stand the pressure so we decided to get married to only a few witnesses there, my niece, Love, and three of her friends. My wife stirs and places her hand over my torso, she opens her eyes only to smile. I kiss her lips before she closes her eyes back to sleep. Pauline wasn't only beautiful,
MarcosMy hunter easily settled in the new apartment, and while she settled, we moved the family dinner another day. My family has been wanting to meet her for a while so we are going there for dinner tonight.I easily got ready in jeans and a white dress shirt. Elaine was getting ready with the help of an assistant since she wanted to make a good impression on my family...She insisted. I was waiting downstairs for her and my jaw dropped when I saw her, she was wearing a beautiful black dress that held her like a glove, she had curves in the right places and her hair was done in a beautiful hairdo that left her neck bare and all I wanted was to sink my teeth in that delicate skin of hers, to mark her as mine but I needed to calm down. I don't even know what we are yet. There is a strong pull between us but well, no one of us has made a move. We leaned in too many times for a kiss but she pulled away each time."So, do I look fine?" She asked. I nodded and extended my hand, she took it.
Marcos"Elaine?" I called as I gently approached her, the beautiful woman finally turned to look at me but I saw so many emotions in her gaze."Are you alright?" I took her chin between my fingers and she nodded."I didn't think you'll come here again," Her voice did things to me and I smiled at her."I was just busy, I would have called but I don't have your number,""I don't have a cellphone," She informed me. I smiled and stroked her hair."Did you miss me?"She scoffed and rolled her pretty eyes " You're not that important, Marcos, ""Aouch, that hurt," I fake hurt dramatically, clutching my chest tightly. She giggled and I froze, it was sweet but to be fair, everything she does is sweet."Have you eaten?"She frowned and nodded. I wasn't too convinced about that so I extended my hand which she took reluctantly. We walked out of the forest. I don't remember when I enjoyed someone's company that much. She stopped when we reached civilization and stared up at me"I don't think I'm su
ElaineMarcos was a beautiful man. I was surprised when he followed me back to the cavern. He wanted to know more about me which I don't remember too well ever since I was taken from my home by those witches. It has been a couple of tough years between being abducted, experimented on, and turned into what I hated most in the world. A wolf.I have been struggling since I escaped the facility. No food or money. I went from place to place trying to survive but my memory was still hazy. My full name came back to me when Marcos asked about it. Marcos, a smile plastered on my lips just thinking about him, he lived in my head. Will he come back to see me? I wish he could, I loved meeting him.I woke up the next morning bright and early, I went to the river to take a bath and wore my dress. I was frivolous and so was the beast inside me, the one that is always snarling. She was calm, hoping Marcos would come but to my disappointment, he didn't and I went back to bed."Today is the day he comes
Marcos"You don't belong here," I told the woman sharply and she yelped, jumping a foot in the air. I jumped down from the tree I was in and she stilled. Her heart was beating so fast but slowly, she steadied it."Turn around," I ordered but she shook her head. I walked toward her when she quickly turned around and threw two daggers at me, I ducked just in time. She was quick for a little thing like herself,"Who are you?" I was curious about her " and what are you doing here?" I questioned. The woman wore a black ensemble that covered her whole face except her eyes. "What's a human doing here," I mused, but I was soon proved wrong when her eyes glowed red. I sniffed the air to catch her scent but she didn't have one."You're a shifter," She only scoffed and got out a bow and arrow I didn't see earlier. She aimed at me and I could tell that they were silver. "Stay away from me," She ordered, carefully trying to back away. Her voice made me smile, it was smooth but commanding, however
