This man was breathtaking. He radiated his power and those angular facial features made him so masculine. That was all about him, you couldn't find a flaw no matter how long you looked for it.When I got to the door, he held it open for me and I nodded to him as a thank you. What a gentleman he could be.Damn, slime.Amun was far too happy to wrap me around his finger, even though I knew it, it pulled every time.We left the house through the front entrance and that was kind of exciting. So far I've only been into the garden through the back door, which was new territory for me.Amun gave me the right of way and I eagerly walked past him. I was curious to see what the scary thing looked like and whether he was tame.I walked down the few steps in front of the entrance and was not disappointed. The front yard was nice and the driveway was made of gravel. Everything looked nice, but I found it to be impractical. The gravel gave way and if you tried to escape it would slow you down.I sh
That's why I continued, "After that, I was given a grace period, but finally things got going and I was prepared for my position. It's just that my uncle delayed my taking over when I could have taken over, but yes, you already know that."Whenever I thought about him, I automatically became angry. This man was one of the monsters on this planet. I would be out for revenge, but as we know, that didn't help anyone. It was an advantage that I didn't have the opportunity to do that."We both seem to have had similar childhoods. At least in small areas. We both lost our parents early and had to grow up quickly."I had to sigh because he was right. There were certain similarities, even if they diverged at certain points.Amun slowly and carefully took my hand as he said, "However, I think you had a harder time. Your uncle made your life very difficult. It's cruel when you don't have a nice home." He laced his fingers with mine and I welcomed the sparks.It was too nice to hold his hand, mo
his great-grandmother. He took over the sculptures on the property from his grandfather.Theoretically, I could have thought to myself that his father might not have been the best person.I was at a loss for words on the subject, but I managed to squeeze his hand, which was hopefully better than nothing. That was some tough information to process.Yes, I thought of something else I could do.I released my hand from his and hugged him. Something like that was usually good and it was a sign of compassion or support, whatever it was, as long as it helped and made him feel better.Amun wrapped his arms tightly around me and we stood there in silence.—----------------------------Finally, I pulled away from him with a clearing of my throat and somehow the mood was strange. Maybe I was imagining it or just thinking about it too much in general. It was hard to place exactly, but something still felt strange.I didn't dare make eye contact and turned away. I turned my attention to what was i
I stopped and turned to him, and he did the same. That expression told me he was really angry. The barrel was full. But according to the color of his eyes, it was Amun and the tone of his voice also matched him."Amun, but you are the king of them and I am a leader. Until recently I thought that you killed my family. Then I didn't know a single nice werewolf before you. Mates are your thing and not the hunters'. Then what do you expect from me?"I was pretty sure he could see my desperation because it was great. At a certain point, things could no longer be hidden and they became obvious.He ran a hand over his face, mirroring my emotion. My heart felt a little pang at the sight and I had an idea where this was going.I fought within myself not to get tears in my eyes. It seemed like an almost impossible task, but I managed it. Still, it hurt."You've had enough of it, haven't you? It's enough for you and you've had enough of it, rather of me." I looked up at the sky because it made i
He seemed confused, which seemed funny in a wolf. I may have seen some before, but I had never paid attention to it; above all, there was always anger or some other negative emotion behind it when I was met.Amun cocked his head, but in the opposite direction as I had done.If someone happened to walk past us, you had to ask yourself what went wrong.He growled although it was a quiet and rather less unfriendly growl.I sighed and put my hands on my hips. "Well, that's better. You'd be a bad werewolf if that was all."This time his growl was louder, but I knew more was possible. I left it at that for the moment, as perhaps he was incapable of growling threateningly at his mate. There was probably an internal blockage.Still, I growled at him, which sounded pathetic compared to a werewolf. Amun looked amused and took a step closer to me. As soon as he made another one, I could touch him.Another idea occurred to me, so I started purring and then asked, "Can you do that too?"Luckily Am
Taran had simply disturbed us and now we were rid of this annoying fly.Amun was now above me and pressed his lips to mine, which silenced my laughter.That kiss left you wanting more and my brain had long since said goodbye and gone on vacation anyway.So I grabbed the hem of his shirt and pulled it over his head. Our lips parted briefly, but as soon as the top was gone, they met again.If you had this male specimen in front of you, you should know what exactly you were dealing with. To my delight, I discovered that he had a six-pack abs. You could say whatever you wanted, but that was attractive. Touching him triggered more of those sparks, which I loved.His kiss became more urgent and I had no problem with that.Unfortunately, it didn't get any further because he gave a threatening growl and broke away from me. This irritated me, so I looked at him blankly. That moment had gone well, at least that was my opinion.Amun closed his eyes and took a deep breath. "My beta wasn't here fo
I walked a few steps further and it was locked, but the key was in it. Security seemed to be very important here, at least I had never come across a balcony door that was also locked with a key.I turned it around once and the familiar click of a lock opening was heard. I pushed the lever up and was able to open the door.The cool night air hit me, making me take a deep breath. A breath of fresh air was always good, as long as it wasn't too cold.After stepping onto the balcony I had to smile again because the view was really beautiful.The railing was white and almost a work of art. It was made of marble and didn't even look too old. Looking at the general view of the building, it was clear that everything was regularly renovated. For an old property, this was good before it fell apart, like a house of cards.I walked over to the railing and looked down into the garden. Small lanterns lined the path and glowed, illuminating their surroundings.Surprisingly, I saw two gardeners still
We hadn't stayed on the balcony for a long time, but we still delayed our kiss.By now we were in Amun's bedroom and he had excused himself to his walk-in closet to change.I stood in front of his bed and asked myself which side was mine. There was nothing on either bedside table, so you could have said which one he always slept on. It just seemed like an unsolvable puzzle to me as to which side I should seize. It would be rude if I lay in his.Maybe I was thinking way too much. The nervousness in me most likely caused this stress, which was completely unnecessary.And somehow I didn't dare everything about this situation was strange.Just as I was about to move to leave this room and take refuge in mine, Amun came back into the room. Like a scaredy cat, I had wanted to elegantly escape, but now that was made impossible.My eyes snapped to him and he landed on me.Wonderful.I stood stupidly in front of his bed, certainly looking lost. Sometimes he had to wonder what kind of strange p
"Alright, I'll do you a favor. I'll come back to this later.""I'm looking forward to it, I can't stop myself." She must have recognized the sarcasm in my words because I had made it clear.Flynn and Tyrone seemed to have continued to talk, at least the beta was saying, "As you wish, but the ball gown thing would be perfect. Maybe we can find new recruiters to replace you since you can be so mean."Oh, that was very daring.That deep, menacing growl from Tyrone made my heart stop for a moment. It was as if the world stopped for a moment. A shiver of fear ran down my spine and my eyes automatically found him.He glared at his beta, more like killing him with his eyes and he had one hand clenched tightly into a fist. As if he was preparing to harm someone.His voice mirrored his appearance as Tyrone replied, "You will look after her as if your life depended on what she does. And you will remind people that they need to be respectful of their Luna." He emphasized the word Luna, which was
I had just arrived at the front door with Flynn and then I realized something. I only had the high heels from last night.Did I seriously need to tour this area in high heels?Sure, it was doable, just uncomfortable and certainly not suitable footwear for this project.With a sigh, I turned to him and explained, "I only have yesterday's very high shoes. You'll probably have to be patient today because you're slower in those things."Flynn dismissed it with a wave of his hand and said, "No problem. We can go to a store and you can buy some suitable ones."Yes, but with what money?He probably didn't take into account that I had arrived here with hardly anything. Hopefully, Tyrone had told him that. You usually gave your best friend a story about your experiences, especially when it came to your mate.To be on the safe side, I remarked, "They didn't give me time to pack, so all my things will be sent later."Surprisingly, Flynn got a cheeky grin on his face, which made me look at him sl
The door opened and a man emerged. He had a higher rank because that's what he radiated.Werewolves could generally sense this. So I concluded that I was dealing with a beta. It was very likely that he was Tyrone's beta, at least that would be logical considering whose house I was in.It was confusing that he smiled, even more so when the words followed in a friendly tone, "Good morning Luna, nice that we got to know each other."He started moving and as he did I replied, "Good morning." I would reply that it was nice to meet him, but I still had absolutely no details."By the way, I'm Tyrone's beta."Oh well, as expected.—---------------------------"Ok, Beta from Tyrone and what's your name?" He didn't tell me that and this information would be great.Just before he got to me, I stood up to properly introduce myself. My good upbringing said hello.When he stood in front of me, he offered me his hand, which I accepted. "I'm Flynn and you must be Aurelia." How nice, then at least he
Aurore said, "I'm telling you, it's terrible. If we're too stupid to ever leave here, our first act in office is to burn this piece."Yes, we also liked to have very logical topics that were incredibly helpful if you had a ton of problems.—---------------------------------Meanwhile, I was sitting at the dining table and looking at the roll that was on the plate in front of me. It wasn't an exciting sight at all, but I wasn't capable of anything else.What concerned me most was Amanda. From Tyrone's behavior, his mom wasn't a nice person. Except it was his fault and not hers. I had to find out somehow, until then I shouldn't trust anyone.Aurore chimed in by saying, "We need to befriend someone who isn't part of this family. Someone neutral who can tell us something about the circumstances."That was my plan too, too the only question was how we should become friends. Amanda had said she wanted to show me the area, but Tyrone didn't want me near her.If I had the opportunity, I would
However, that was cut short as Aurore growled and yelled at me, "Get a hold of yourself, Aurela!" It was so loud that I could barely contain myself from wincing.Tyrone immediately got my full attention again as he ran over to my side again.Why did he do that?Why was he just looking for me?Why?!When he placed a kiss in the crook of my neck, I tensed. That was too much of a good thing, more of a bad thing. I was lucky that the dress was high-necked, so we had no skin-to-skin contact."I had to look for you for far too long." The crowning moment came when a slight growl was heard.However, I understood something at that moment.That wasn't Tyrone.No.This was his wolf who had gained the upper hand, which is why I had to deal with him.Addressing my wolf, I said, "Aurore, his wolf is your problem." You could hear in my voice how confused and completely overwhelmed I was.She mumbled, "Um, no thanks. You're doing well, I don't want to bother you any further.""Angsthase!""You're no
In the entrance hall, we took the door that was at the back. It was exactly the one Amanda had stepped out of yesterday when I met her.A corridor came into my field of vision and it was narrower than the one on the upper floor. There were also some paintings hanging here. Presumably, everything was papered with them, but these were works of art and not relatives or whoever was pictured on the others.Amanda continued to talk, but I was distracted by the surroundings so I barely noticed. That was rude, but there was a lot to see. Besides, she was in a torrent of talk and didn't want to be interrupted.Just as we reached a door and Amanda was about to open it, I heard a cold voice behind us say, "Aurela."I automatically turned around and immediately spotted Tyrone coming towards us. Joy looked completely different, but that's exactly the emotion you should expect from him.I had hoped that I wouldn't have to see him again today, but unfortunately, he was brutally murdered. I had to pu
I closed the door behind Amanda and turned to her. She walked to the middle of the room and then turned to me. It was kind of weird that she had the same eyes as Tyrone.Sure, many children had the same eye color as their parents. But it was also the same shape and this dark green was something of a rarity. At least I had never met anyone with that particular color.She had a smile on her face and asked, "How are you?" This was a very logical question that started most conversations. It was good that she took it into her own hands because I couldn't think of anything, it was all too new for that."Good thanks and you?" I managed to put on a slight smile, which I was very proud of."Also. How did you sleep?" She looked around the room, so I automatically did the same. There wasn't anything wrong with it. Except of course the color, which in my opinion was represented too often."Good, good. By the way, it's a nice room." A small part of it may be a lie, but politeness demanded this sta
If we accepted him seriously, then we were trapped. He could find us anywhere, which would make running away pointless. This would practically seal the fact that we would ultimately complete the Mate band.We had to avert all of this somehow and for that, we needed a good strategy.I was still standing in the same spot, desperately running a hand through my hair. I closed my eyes to better concentrate so nothing else could distract me.Aurore answered confidently, "We will find a solution. It can hardly be our fate that we have to submit to this man. Rejection is not an impossibility."But how should we do that?Tyrone obviously didn't want that when he was already talking about the next step.After taking a deep breath to calm myself, I asked, "And how?""You ask a good question and we'll find a good answer to that soon."At least one of us had the optimism within us. For me, that was a big miss.My wolf cleared her throat and said, "You should change into something else. We don't ha
That hit me like a slap in the face. I was separated from them and, if I was unlucky, I never saw them again. Essentially, I had lost her and was trapped in a house with a strange man who scared me.Tyrone said, “Welcome to the Darkmoon Pack.”With those final words, another wave came over me and it was powerful enough to almost bring me to my knees as it was so overwhelming. I gave everything I had to stay firmly on both feet and always looked back at him.The connection to the whole pack was palpable and I didn't miss the fact that it was much larger than my previous one. There were many members, of which I was now a member.Tyrone looked at me and said, "You're the first one who doesn't make a sound when taking the picture."I raised an unimpressed eyebrow and asked, "Why should I?""My pack is much stronger and has more than four times as many members. A recording has brought down werewolves that come from a place larger than your old one."Aurore growled and said, "My dear, you u
