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
Caliana's POVThe next morning Love and I went down for breakfast, the Alpha wasn't there and I let out a sigh. We silently ate breakfast and I took the little princess to school. After that, I went to the border but I was surprised to see Jamal there, he was deep in thought. "Beta," I called when I got out of the car, he immediately put on a gentle smile on his lips and kissed my cheek. "What are you doing here?" He asked, "I was going to see the strays but I thought against it," "Why?" "I wanted them to get ready to be moved into the pack but I thought it best if I talked to Alpha Edward first," Jamal slowly nodded and gave me a knowing look. Does he know what happened last night? Of course, he's not only beta but a close friend as well. I felt the need to explain myself to him. "Jamal, I didn't mean to hurt the Alpha, I acted on impulse," I said, facing the ground. He took a step closer and touched my hair once"I know, you were hurting and wanted to hurt him too," He said ki
Caliana's POVHe was sure of his words and it astonished me. He won't be seeing any other women."If you and I are to lead this pack, we don't need to hurt each other, especially with these damn rumors of vampires lurking around our territories these days," He said softly and I gasped, vampires are back? Since when? Vampires were eradicated from our realm decades ago by the Lycan elder council and the wizard king because they fed on human blood and attacked shifters."What? How?" "I don't know, rumors are that they are back and might want vindication in the families involved in chasing them," He informed me. He went to the bedroom, and I followed. "So what's going to happen?" "Send them back to hell where they crawled out of or just kill their leader however, the old wizard king is confident he can deal with them," The witch covens and shifters are not enemies but they don't get along so they each stay on different parts, they never mingle except when they have a common goal. Witc
Caliana's POVThe elder's cars started to arrive one by one. The first one to step out was a woman with short blonde hair. She looked intimidating and wore the latest fashion brand, "That's elder Christina Carter, everyone calls her CC, she was the Alpha of the Grey Lycan pack in the Northern region before she retired and her son took over," Alpha Edward whispered in my ear. I was supposed to know all this beforehand but it has been a stressful couple of days. I was grateful that he told me. "She's not as harsh as she looks," He added. She stood beside her car and two people stepped out, a man and a woman in her mid twenties. "That is her granddaughter Melody, I'm sure she brought her here in hopes of finding a prospective match in this pack," He said"And the male?" "He's irrelevant," He simply said and I narrowed my gaze at him, he rolled his eyes"That is her assistant," "Some people say he's her lover," Added Marcus."Good that she's still getting it at her age," I mumbled and
Caliana's POVWe entered the room and I went to get my phone. I received messages from Levy and I responded to them while Alpha Edward sat on the couch across from me, typing on his laptop. He seemed to focus on his work and was even frowning. He looked cute. Alpha Edward was easily the most handsome man in the world but maybe I was biased because he is my mate. "Wanna drill a hole in me?" He asked, and I looked at my phone, I was too embarrassed to meet his eyes now. Levy: Is he finally warming up to you? Caliana: I don't know man, it's like there is something wrong with him, one minute he's all treating me well, the other he wants to kill me.Levy: Well, you kissed his enemy.Caliana: He doesn't know that.Levy: But kissing was done and he found out, can you blame him for getting angry? Caliana: He watched as rogues kill his wife.Levy: LOL you are not safe, run. Caliana: I'm way into deep with him, and have you forgotten I was literally sold to this pack, I'm even surprised the
Edward's POVMy fated mate, my Luna, my wife all felt right and natural in my mind and tongue. Her scent was surrounding me and it made my inner Lycan howl in happiness. Even now as I watch her sleep, I'm fighting the urge to not bury my dick in her tight entrance. I wanted all of her, every inch of her heart and soul I wanted it all for me. I almost died when I felt the burning sensation in my chest when she was with another man. It reminded me of the one person I never wanted to think about; Jane Anne. Memories came flooding down on me and I was enraged. I would have hurt Caliana at that moment had my daughter not come, It would be something I'd regret for the rest of my life because I am already attached to her in ways I didn't think possible. This was getting dangerous, I needed to get my head together so I avoided her the whole day but she came to me instead, her bravery surprised me. I tried to understand her reasons for doing what she did and I decided we should let it go since
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
