It took me a while to compose myself before I decided it was time to head out. Taking a deep breath in, I swallowed the lump in my throat. Kissing Marcus had opened the floodgates to my emotions, and I only had myself to blame. Although he kissed me back with equal fervor, I somehow felt like he didn’t want me. It was perhaps because he had asked for some space and I didn’t give him that. After the little attention he gave me the other day at the market, I was hopeful that his anger toward me was slowly melting away. And perhaps it was, but we weren’t there yet. 

I will deal with it all later tonight, when I finally plan on confronting him about what he truly wanted from me now. But for now, I had other things to worry about. Mustering up some courage, I walked out of my room and went down the stairs to face reality.

    “What the hell is he doing here?” Natalie asked. I was still surprised by what I was seeing, but I managed to give her an answer, “He’s the Alpha now.” “Yes,” Marcus added, leaning away from the counter that he earlier found support on. “And that must be his date for the night.” “Or the Luna of the Smith pack.” I winced at my words. Leslie was back with Asher now? How in hell did she manage that? “As far as I’m aware, there was no news about the new Luna of the Smith Pack,” Marcus said, “So for now, you don’t owe her any kindness.” A smile couldn't help but form on my face upon hearing his words.

    My first thought was to go back outside before Bella could notice that I had come in. I didn’t want to impose myself on her after being told that she preferred to be left alone. Moreover, I haven’t spoken to her since Lucien left, and I wasn’t sure what she thought of the whole situation. Like Marcus, she could have been upset with me for trying to meddle in her business.When I finally had the time to examine my surroundings properly, I was confused. Piles of books lay scattered on the floor with a few pages torn. A few canvases were shredded and a few destroyed completely. It was chaotic, and it was enough to make me wander inside to check if Bella was okay. As I walked in, I found Bella in the center of the room with numerous papers by her side. Her hair was in disarray as she bent down to read the content of the book that she was holding.

    “How?” I uttered in disbelief.As I looked up from the book, I found hope shimmering in her eyes after a long time. A confident smile was claiming her face as after days of struggle, she finally saw some light at the end of the tunnel.“That’s where the witches come in,” She said, “I’ve read in this book that few witches are capable of breaking the soulmate bond created by forcefully marking someone. When one of the partners is unhappy in a relationship, the witches can help break their bond. It is possible in my case too, as there is no part of me that wants to be with that monster. I want the bond to be broken, and with a witch’s help, I can do it.“But that’s the tricky part. We don’t know any w

    “Step away from her right now.” Marcus said, glaring at my wrist that was still in Asher’s possession.Hearing his voice, Asher let go of me at once and stepped away. Marcus walked toward me and was about to go against Asher when I wrapped my arm around his waist to stop him.“Marcus, don’t.” I said, but his eyes were pinned on him.“What did you do to her?” He growled.Asher held his hands up in defense, “Nothing. I just found her.”“Then why was she crying?”“I have no idea. That&rsqu

    I felt the soft mattress sink in as Marcus launched me on the bed. A squeal left me then, but I was instantly shut up when Marcus' lips crashed onto mine. He was sprawled across my body, his weight almost crushing me but I didn’t say anything. I let him devour me, the same way I’d been yearning for days. And the day had finally come. An intense feeling filled my chest, threatening to burst. Wrapping my legs around his hips, I pushed him closer towards me.Marcus pulled away from me for a brief while then, perhaps to reposition ourselves, and I took full advantage of it. Sinking my fingers into his shirt, I ripped them apart, revealing his ravenous body underneath. Mirth danced in his eyes upon noticing my desperation, his lips parting with surprise.“Wow.” he said, shrugging the remaining fabric of

    Leaning closer toward him, I touched my lips against his. It was my way of sealing the deal with him, a promise that was never to be broken. No matter what came, I knew I would always be by his side. Not even his wrath could drive me away from him, for I knew my love for him knew no bounds. Words would never be enough to convince him of the same, so I realized that only my actions could prove how deeply I felt for him.Deepening the kiss, I slowly relished the feel of his lips against mine. Unlike earlier, when I was hungry to feel him and ravish him with my kisses, I wanted to slow down the pace and be hyper aware of everything that I was experiencing. It was in moments like these that I felt the most connected to him, both body and soul. While rough sex was pleasurable enough, we explored our true potential as a couple only when we made love.

    Marcus’ POVWhen I woke up the next morning, my hand was still tucked under Kiara’s body. My face was buried within her hair, my chest hugging her back. I reeled in a deep breath, my lungs filling with her scent that drove me insane every now and then. Realizing that I could afford to spend a few more minutes in bed with her, I snuggled her deeper into the embrace. I felt her slightly twist under my arms, making me loosen my hold around her at once.She turned around to face me, her eyes fluttering open. Her face was still filled with sleep when a lazy smile spread on her face, “Hey.”Her groggy voice triggered an amused smile on my face too, “Go back to sleep. It’s still too early.”

    Kiara’ POVI couldn’t remember the last time I saw such a happy smile on Marcus’ face as I was seeing now. I had just drifted into slumber when I sensed a presence above me. As I opened my eyes, his broad shoulders came into my view. His lips were showering tender kisses on the side of my face, his stubble feeling poky under my skin.I lightly moaned as his kisses turned wet, and they traveled to the sensitive spot behind my ear. Through his pants, I could feel his member harden against my abdomen.“You surely know the best way to wake me up.” I mumbled into his ears.I felt his chest rumble against me as he pulled away to reveal a dashing smile.

  • My Second Chance With The Alpha    200. Epilogue

    It’s been four months since the war, and nothing remained the same. The aftermath of the battle was just as gloomy as the events leading up to it. Although the threat to our survival diminished significantly, it took us a long time to accept the disastrous consequences of the war. With so many lives and resources lost, we all had to work extra hard to restore the balance of our community. However, it was only after these four difficult months that we found a reason to celebrate once again. And the occasion was Bella and Lucien’s much awaited wedding. When Lucien took over his empire, Bella and him decided to move out of our house. Starting a new life of their own beyond the mountains, they remained away from us for longer than we’d hoped. Although Amanda visited her a couple of times, both Marcus and I haven’t been able to make time for the same. So naturally, when I met her earlier today as we arrived at their new house, I couldn’t control my tears, and neither could she. “I’v

    Considering who we were dealing with, we should’ve known better than to believe that the Lycan King would stick to the rules of the war. When the war began, both the parties established that none of the fighters would carry the war beyond the battle ground. However, after experiencing significant loss yesterday, the Lycan King had perhaps realized that they were heading for defeat. It drove him to do what he was doing right now, breaking rules and going to capture Bella. Thank God Lucien and I caught them before it was too late, for I don't know what would have happened if the Lycans had infiltrated the town. “Where are they?” I asked in impatience as I looked out of the window. As soon as Marcus was informed about what the Lycans were up to, he asked us to head straight home. Bella, Ethan and Natalie were already shifted home by the time we came, along with the baby and the other staff at the medical center. Our army was heading into the town now to fight the Lycans although few

    “I heard you were hurt.” He clasped his eyes shut in regret, shoulders slumping down. When he opened them once again, his eyes flickered toward the two men who were awkwardly standing by his side.“Please leave us alone, Potter.” “Yes, Alpha.” The man with the blonde hair nodded and walked past me to exit the room. Once my eyes were on him again, I noticed that his disappointment was still persisting. “Come on,” I said, “You can’t be mad at me.” “Of course I’ll be mad at you Kiara, what were you thinking?” He said, “I’d particularly told you to not do anything stupid and you come all the way into the danger zone all alone?” Tears welled in my eyes at his strict tone. I understood why he was reacting like this but I hoped that he would have some empathy for what I was feeling. He couldn’t expect me to not do anything when I knew he was in danger. “I couldn’t help it.” I managed to say, “I was scared for you. And I knew that if I told anyone, they would never have let me come here

    My hand instantly wrapped around her, reclining her onto a nearby stretcher. Thank God I’d asked for a midwife to stay on stand-by, I was suspecting this would happen. “Take her into the operating room right now!” I said as the nurse took over. “Kiara.” She clutched my hand, forcing me to come with her into the room, “I… I need Ethan.” My heart twisted in pain as I looked into her eyes. Conflicting emotions arose within me as I contemplated what to say to her, making me temporarily devoid of voice. Noticing my hesitation, she shook my hand once again.“Kiara?” “Yeah…” I said as I found the courage to answer her. There was no way I could tell her the truth in this condition. I would have to mask it with a good lie until she was in a position to hear the truth. “Natalie, I’m so sorry, dear. But Ethan is in the middle of a battle. I’ve got the news about half an hour ago, I can’t get him to you now.” “Oh, God.” She groaned, falling back onto the pillow, “I don’t think I can do this

    Although Marcus was giving me the most reassuring smile he could, I couldn’t help the trepidations in my heart. The war had arrived much sooner than I’d expected, making it even harder for me to let go of him. In fact, I didn’t think any number of days would have prepared me for this one, for no wife would want to bid adieu to her husband as he prepares himself to fight the most cruel monster known. Despite my attempts to have faith in Marcus’ abilities to kill the Lycan King, I couldn’t help the worry that traveled all the way to the pit of my stomach. It was merely days ago that we were happily relishing our honeymoon, and now, Marcus was heading to a war. I was feeling a lot of emotions right then, but fear dominated them all. “Kiara?” He said, placing his hand on my shoulder, “Oh, don’t look at me like that, darling.” Pursing my lips, I gave him a defeated look, “Alright,” I sighed, “I’m going to be so worried for you.” “I promised I’ll be careful.” “I don’t trust you.”

    As luck would have it, Marcus and I arrived home right about the same time. Relief washed over his features as he saw me running towards him, opening his arms for me. “Thank God you’re alright.” He said as he pecked my forehead. “Marcus,” I said, breathless, “What the hell was that about?” “We got news that Mary’s Husband, Victor, is part of a rebellion.” He said, “He is a Lycan.” “What?” I asked, “H-how did he-“ “He mostly probably came as an Immigrant, and is looking to turn our people against us.” He said and looked towards our house. “We need to get out of here, Kiara. Our men are going to take care of it. I’ll deal with him later.” “Okay.” I nodded and let him lead me into the house. Within minutes, our bags were packed and loaded into the boot. Hoping into the car, Marcus drove away from there. “Does this mean Mary was also a Lycan?” “Most probably.” He said, “Her husband is leading the rebellion. Of course, she’s aware.” “I knew it.” I mumbled under my breath, “How co

    The next morning, Marcus got up earlier than usual.After having endured very little sleep the previous night, I’d expected him to sleep in through the morning. He didn’t inform me anything about our plans for today, so I was curious to find out what he was up to.As he stepped out of the bath, his eyes frowned against me. “You’re up early.”“I could say the same about you.”He shrugged, “Well, I have some work in the town. I’ll have to step out for a bit.”“Can I accompany you?” I asked, “I’ll be bored here.”“You?” He said, “What will you do there? Trust me, you&rsqu

    Thankfully, the cook was gone by the time I returned back into the dining room.Having wrapped myself with a robe, I let the wet strands of my hair dry against its fabric. Marcus was swiping on his phone mindlessly when I walked in, but upon noticing my figure, he put it away.“Were you waiting for me?” I asked as I poured myself some orange juice.Nodding, he held out his own glass to me. After filling it to half, I put the juice container away.“Is everything okay back at home?” I asked as he opened the dish to serve some food into my plate.He looked at me. “Of course. Why do you ask?”&nbs

    “How long is it going to take?” I asked as I splashed some water towards him.Marcus gave me an unimpressed look, staring down at his white shirt that was now filled with wet marks. I couldn’t help but giggle as he walked further away from the shore, to a point where the waves wouldn’t meet his feet. Shoving his free hand into the pocket, he said something into the phone.Rolling my eyes at him, I swam further into the water, enjoying the blissful morning in the ocean. I ducked my head under the water and tried to swim along, positioning myself along the force of the waves. As another sway of the wave pushed me from behind, I momentarily lost composure and flipped. Frantically moving my arms, I tried to stay afloat until my feet reached the sand.
