Caliana's POVMy heart was thumping in my chest. Edward was here and he wanted to see me. However, I wasn't surprised that he was here, Blanco warned me that Edward attacked him at the king's party. I wasn't ready to see my mate but I needed to hear what he had to say. "I'm tired, I'll see him when I can," I said, leaving my best friend dumbfounded. Levy followed me upstairs and I narrowed my gaze at him. "He doesn't look like he'll leave anytime soon," He informed me. "I don't care, and please tell him that if he forces his way in like he did last time, he'll never see me again," I said coldly. I wasn't going to entertain him after what he did to me but it would be nice to see Love again. I missed everyone at the manor even though I resented them for not trying to get in contact with me. He fucked that bitch and caused me pain, yet, they did nothing. Levy left the room with a long sigh and muttered something incoherent. With the help of Pauline, I took a shower, my mind swaying to
Edward's POV A few days ago, I was invited to a party in the Sapphire royal lycan pack. It was a way for my family to see if I'm well because they knew not finding my mate tormented me. Reaching the party, my inner lycan kept stirring in my head. I inhaled, only to catch the sweet fragrance of my mate. I searched desperately for the owner but what I saw made me enraged. Caliana's scent was coming from alpha Blanco, the alpha of the Grey Lycan pack. I attacked him immediately without a care that people were terrified. From the looks of it, he knew exactly why I attacked him. We questioned him endlessly about my mate's whereabouts but the bastard refused to give us her location, even when the king threaten him. All he said is that Caliana stayed in his pack for some time but left not long ago, I knew he was lying because her scent on him was strong which only meant they spent a lot of time together. I attacked him over and over again until they had to inject me with wolfsbane to tame m
Caliana's POVMy heart was hammering in my chest as I stared at the man I hated, oh so thought I'd hate. His gaze held many emotions but I couldn't decipher them all. Edward's eyes swayed my body and settled on my stomach and a pain squeezed my heart. I swallowed and looked next to him, I smiled at the girl next to him. She grinned when I opened my arms and she ran into them. It was the most beautiful and longest hug I've been in. I kissed her several times. "How are you so big already?" I chuckled as I put her down. "I missed you so much, mommy," She said and my heart warmed with adoration for her. I missed her little voice. Love had not yet noticed my belly and when she did, she gasped and touched it. "A baby!" She squealed, touching my stomach fondly and looking back at her father. Edward's eyes bore into me and I shuddered, my knees wobbled at the intensity of his gaze and I felt so many eyes on me. Wherever did they come from? "Caliana," Edward said after what seemed like an e
"Cali, are you alright?" Asked Ellis, troubled. I smiled a yes to him and I instructed Vince where to go. We went straight to the stray's mansion, it was secluded from the rest because I didn't want to meet anyone from the pack. I smiled when we reached the long driveway, it was just as we left it. Kareen and Olivia were at the entrance, wanting to see who came. The car stopped and I stepped out, their faces showed confusion as they glanced at each other and then at me."Lu-Luna," Kareen smiled awkwardly. Yep, Edward was telling me the truth. I smiled at the ladies and they approached, bowing their heads low. "How are you?" We exchanged pleasantries and asked me to enter the house...I called Ellis over and he rushed to me. We went straight to the kitchen where we sat when I came here. A girl of Ellis' age appeared and took him away while I talked to the ladies. "How did this happen so suddenly?" Olivia asked, surprised. "When last did you see me?" I asked, smiling. I didn't know if
Caliana's POVI have been staying here for three days now. Edward was true to his word of not letting me leave. Vince and Evelyn left to their dismay, leaving me here with Ellis. He was most delighted to spend more time with Love. Edward was still pursuing me and sending me flowers every day but nothing he did impressed or warmed my heart. I wasn't ready to be with him all this was still fresh in my heart. I kept feeling like I needed to do something important, however, I didn't know what but I knew I'd feel better once I did. The door opened and Edward walked in with a breakfast tray in his hands. "Good morning," He greeted cheerily but I didn't smile back at him. "Hungry?" He asked, putting the food on the glass coffee table. He made the breakfast himself, I would know the shape of those pancakes anywhere. I was starving since I didn't go down for breakfast and ate early last night. I sat on the couch and slowly ate my food under his watchful gaze. I ate half of the food on the
Caliana's POVFive to six hours later the cry of a baby echoed throughout the room and I slanted back into bed. I was exhausted."Congratulations, Alpha, Luna, it's a healthy baby boy," The doctor announced with a smile. I smiled too, looking at Edward's face, it was priceless and like me, his heart was already full of love for our son.The doctor brought the baby to me and I kissed his perfect little face before laying him on my chest."He's perfect," Edward whispered. Indeed my baby was perfect. He caressed my cheek and stared deeply into my eyes,"Thank you for this, Caliana Meyers," He said and kissed my forehead."You're welcome, Edward Chasia," He took the baby and kissed him too before the nurse came to get him."Do you have a name?" The doctor asked and I glanced at Edward, we didn't discuss it but he mentioned once long ago a name he'd named his first son but he didn't speak. He was waiting for me to name the baby. His first male son, usually it's their fathers who do it,"Aer
Caliana's POV Five good years of happiness, love, and passion but above all, five years of euphoria with my family and friends. Today is Aerys fifth birthday and all his little friends and cousins are here. The king and Queen of Lycans are here too, still can't keep their hands off each other. "Hey!" Queen Anaiah smiled at me as she walked into the kitchen, and all the staff bowed low to her. "Do you need help, Cali?" She asked. "We are done here... Let's take these to the buffet table," I said, handing her a bowl and I carried the other. We placed them on the table and turned to the men who were drinking while barbecuing. Michael joined us too since his son is Aerys' friend as well. "Where's Love?" Anaiah asked. "She went to her grandmother's place after camp," I informed her. Dean was supposed to bring her today but something came up so she's coming tomorrow. Anaiah glanced down at my stomach and I eyed her questioningly. She smiled and caressed her belly fondly. "No way, rea
MarcusI was staring at the priestess as she tended to my injury, my inner Lycan would have healed it but he liked the way she was treating it."Marcus, what were you doing in these areas again, you know it's not your territory, right?" She frowned in a way that made her so cute and I purred. I FUCKING purred. I was embarrassed. Selena laughed and again, the sound of her laughter made my heart flutter with unfamiliar feelings. It had been two years since I saw her last at my pack when she came to help out with my brother's issue. I recently ran into her in the city and ever since that day, my inner Lycan has been wanting to see her. Selena was still scrutinizing me, waiting for an answer. "Um, I was hunting and I just found myself here," I came up with the dumbest excuse. I was watching her practice with her swords and when she sensed me, she lost her focus and grazed my leg. "You are very good with these," I said, getting to my feet and almost stumbled but she caught me, our eyes l
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
