Caliana's POV"My dear, Cali, you have grown into a fine woman," "It hasn't even been a full year," I retorted. "Oh yes, look at me, I missed you so much that it felt like forever," She chortled, drinking her wine. She was sucking up to me and I knew she wanted something. "We are sorry for what we did. It was cruel of us to use you in a deal forcibly," Vince said. I looked him in the eyes and he shrunk back. My memories of what happened last time flashed before me but I was quick to banish them away from my head for good."And me, going into your room that night and almost doing that atrocious deed last time, I'm sorry. I may not be your real brother but still, I should have protected you instead, I was the one to cause you pain," He said, sounding sincere now. "Dad would be so disappointed in me, he accepted me and gave me his love after my real father abandoned us. How could I be so cruel to his child, my sister?" His breath shudders and I cock an eyebrow. I'm not sure if he's be
Edward's POVIt has been three days since we've been here and I was getting bored with all the long meetings, and bickering between the Alphas every day. I interacted with my cousin, King Leondre before joining the others at the party. I listened to him as he talked about his mate. All he did was praise her."I'm happy you finally found your mate, finally the people have a queen," I told him and he nodded, gulping his drink."Me too. She's gorgeous and incredible, and her fighting skills are, damn, amazing! How I was able to live without her for almost twenty-four years still baffles me,"Yep, my cousin was a goner, he looked and talked like a man in love. I touched his shoulders seriously and said " Because she was only born about five or six years after you were?" I chuckled and he nodded."How are things with you and your mate?" He asked me. Eyeing me intently. A smile made its way to my face as I thought about my Caliana, she was so lovely and strong. I was blessed to have her and
Caliana's POVI woke up the next day feeling unwell. I didn't want to leave the house because it showed signs of heavy rain ahead but Emilia dragged me to the pack clinic anyway."I'm sure I ate something bad," I groaned, closing my eyes as we waited for the doctors."Oh my, how long have you been unwell, your eyes are dark,"I searched for my phone to text Edward but I must have left it at home. I was nervous for some reason and my hands were trembling slightly. The door swung open and the doctor smiled at us before sitting down on his chair."Congratulations Alpha, you are pregnant," He said. I was in shock, I didn't move or react and when I did, the only words that comes out of my lips were,"Wow,"My hands flew to my stomach as I sat still, deep in thought. We didn't plan this nor have we ever talked about it before. Will he be happy with this? My heart began to race and fear crept into my heart, what if he doesn't want this? Emilia's soft hand on my cheek jolted me out of my thoug
Candace's POVMy heart was pounding in my chest at the night we had. I missed Alpha Edward so much, and being with him in this way made me feel like I'm on cloud nine. However, while we made passionate love, he kept calling her name, moaning her name, and praising her. He was making love to her in ways he has never been with me before and it made my blood boil, I was so angry but I had to remind myself I took her body. It was in the earlier hours and I was looking at his sleeping form. I couldn't help it when I kissed him again and again, he smiled against my lips and his dick was hard, he easily entered me and started to move sensually, morning sex was always a favorite of mine and this man was ravenous for me'For her, he pours his love into this consecrated ritual that you are tainting with black magic,' My Lycan's voice was trembling. I rolled my eyes and blocked her, focusing all my energy on this gorgeous man inside my cunt. He was kissing my neck, making me moan as the fire spre
Caliana's POVI couldn't recognize myself in the mirror, something within me was still burning. How can Edward treat me this way, a pain rippled through me and I broke the mirror. I clutched my chest and sat on the floor until the pain was gone, it has been constant since last night. I stood up to go back into the room. I wanted to go home in the morning but the doctor insisted I stayed for further observations. I was lying in bed when my phone chimed and I received the most heartbreaking text from Edward, He asked me to leave him and his pack, not to contact anyone from his family or my pack will pay for it. My wolf was silent as I read while crying, my fingers were trembling and sobs escaped my lips. What changed with him all of the sudden? I tried to call him and a bitch answered boldly and ordered me to stay away from Edward, the audacity. What pained me more was that Edward didn't have the guts to talk to me instead his new lover did. I tried to tell him that I'm pregnant but hi
Caliana's POV"And the pack, you're Alpha now," Levy said, worried. I thought about it already, and for now, the pack is steady. The fields are doing well and by the time it's harvesting time, I'll be back so that we know which companies to use since obviously, Edward won't aid us with all his connections, and I wouldn't take it if he offered to after what happened."We have enough money and food for everyone to survive. You're the beta, you can help me run it and we'll talk every day," I told him, he frowned and I took his hand,"I need to heal for myself and my baby," Levy nodded in understanding."Where will you go?" Emilia asked, her eyes filled with tears."Anywhere... I need this,""Come to my pack, it's a different change of scenario and you'll love it," Suddenly said Alpha Blanco. I almost forgot he was in the room with us. He was wearing a tight black shirt that exposed his muscled tattooed arms. He was refined and everything about him screamed danger, hot!"Yes," Tristin adde
Caliana's POVI didn't want to talk, cry, or even breathe at this moment. All I wanted to do was crumble because my world fell apart, my almost perfect life. I wasn't enough for my mate and now, everywhere I looked, I saw his handsome face. I will never move on. I didn't want this to be my story, not me, I didn't deserve it. Levy and Emilia hugged me and I held them for dear life. "Okay, please take care of yourself and eat ok?" Emilia said, tears rushing down her cheeks. Levy was about to cry too and I forced a smile,"Please don't guys because you're gonna make me cry and I'm so tired of crying," I hugged them again quickly before going up the stairs. The jet was huge and everything was customized, it smelt lovely too. I was looking out the window when Tristin and Alpha Blanco entered. Tristin kissed my hair and sat next to me, I leaned my head against his shoulder and closed my eyes. I was pleased that no one spoke to me and a few hours later, the painful sensation was back in my
Edward's POVI woke up to a strange dream, Caliana was crying and begging me not to leave her. Why was she when she was lying next to me? It was just a dream but it bugged me for the better half of the morning and my heart pained me, I was having physical pains in my heart. I got out of bed and went to the shower, taking my time there. I decided to check up on Love, I missed her. I dialed her number and she answered on the second ring. "Hi, Daddy!" "Hello, my Lovely girl, how are you?" I asked. She sighed before her answer came,"I'm alright but I miss you and Caliana too," she said, " By the way, why isn't she calling me to check up on me?" "She hasn't? When was the last time you guys talked?" "The day she was in Dandelion pack, and since then, we spoke, why didn't she take me with her where you are?" "You have school," I answered, it was strange that Caliana didn't call Love, that's not like her. Love and I talked for a while longer and I felt good to do that. I open a few emai
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
