After our rigorous session, Marcus passed out beside me on the bed. He had already been battling sleep in the car journey earlier but our shower briefly distracted him. I realized right after he came that he would soon succumb to sleep. Sighing, I peeled his hand away from my waist as I snuck out of his hold. Heading into the bathroom, I cleaned up after myself and resumed my shower.
When I emerged out of the bedroom, fully clothed and presentable this time, I could hear Marcus slightly snore. God, he must have been really tired.
As I went down the stairs, I noticed that empty plates were being removed from the dinner table. Bernard was the last one to finish eating.
“Have you all had dinner already?”
Tears spilled out of my eyes at the sight of the man who resembled the one I had seen just a few minutes ago.I was right.It was indeed him, and yet, I could hardly believe it.How could that be possible?“Kiara?” I felt Marcus’ presence beside me.As I stared into his scared eyes, fresh tears broke loose. I couldn’t stop sobbing.“What the hell happened?” He asked.Bernard said something to him that made me clench his jaw at once. In anger, he ordered, “Bring h
I tweaked my hair one last time as I watched myself in the mirror. Behind me, Marcus was just finishing up tying the straps of my dress together.“Ready then?” He asked, placing his hands on my shoulders.I nodded, “Yes.”Turning me around, he placed a chaste kiss on my lips, “Are you sure you don’t want to call your father?”The mention of his name made me freeze in place at once. It was hard to maintain my composure when people spoke of him, so when Marcus carefully looked down at me, I tried to avoid his gaze.“No.” I said, “He will come if he wants to.”
The way back to Windshire was a long and tiring journey. Marcus and I were being accompanied by a few pack members and of course, my father. Lately, whenever I had some leisure time to spare, events from that day played in my mind on repeat. That night was still so fresh in my head. I could vividly remember everything my father revealed to me.“Why didn’t you come back?” I asked in desperation.By this point, I could understand everything he said but I failed to understand if he thought his decision to stay away from the pack that disowned him was worth leaving his daughter behind.“Everybody wanted me dead.” He said, “After the war, I got to know that Benson was greedy for my position in the pack. He was well aware of my
The next morning, when I went down for breakfast, a surprising sight welcomed me. Since we arrived rather late last night, I didn't have a chance to meet Amanda. However, as I went to greet her now, I found her chatting with my father. It made me stop in my tracks at once. Contemplating my decision, I decided to escape from there before one of us could spot me. However, a warm touch on my back beckoned me to step forward.“Hi,” Bella’s voice rang in my ears, “Let’s join them.”Inwardly groaning, I let her drag me to the table.“Good morning, girls.” Amanda gave us a beaming smile, forcing one out from me as well.As fate would have it, Bella wen
After Marcus left, I had to reluctantly join Amanda and my father for their little tour. I was in need of a tour of the Mansion and the rest of the estate anyway so it wasn’t all that bad, but I’d preferred it if Marcus or perhaps Bella was the one helping me get familiar with the place. As I walked through the long corridors of the place, I realized that soon enough, I’ll have to be the one taking care of it.Apart from taking care of the house and its security, a Luna was also expected to take care of their she-wolves. During one of our conversations, Amanda mentioned how she’d supervise young female werewolves who just shifted and teach them how to get accustomed to the new changes in one’s body. It was her who pushed Marcus to pursue a degree in combat training and urged him to get into teaching.
As I walked into the house, the scent of old wood was hard to miss. The nostalgia it evoked took me back in time to my old house in Ingram, where I lived with my dad. It was a small house, one kitchen, a bedroom and a tiny living area, exactly like this one. The memory of it made me smile. Although that phase of my childhood was a blur, the fondness it entailed was forever etched in my heart.With Marcus closely following behind me, I felt my body relax in the new space. I loved it even more than the Stenfield Mansion. Perhaps it was the beautiful location it was built in or the privacy it offered, but something about this place that made it seem almost magical.“It’s my secret escape location,” Marcus’s breath touched my ears as he slowly guided me into the room by my waist. “My safe haven.&
Once he climbed into the bed with me, I felt his hands on my calves. Grazing my skin upward, he didn’t stop until he reached my hips. Clasping the straps of the underwear there, he swiftly pulled it down my legs. Once he rendered me naked, he split my legs apart, his cold fingers instantly touching me down there. An involuntary gasp left my mouth at his touch, making me fall back on the pillow.While he usually took his sweet time savoring my body before he sampled my wetness, he definitely seemed more impatient this time. Like myself, he was perhaps eager to consummate our engagement.“Always so wet, Kiara.” He said as he started rubbing circles on my sensitive bud.I left a moan as his tormenting fingers rubbed the most delicious pattern
I awoke in the middle of the night to the chill in the air. While Marcus’ body acted as an insulator while I fell asleep, his heat was no longer sufficient to keep me warm. Moving my foot, I realized that a duvet was present at the edge of the bed. It was surprising how it still remained intact on the bed after our vigorous session, nonetheless, I was grateful for it.Slipping out his embrace, I decided to use the loo before I went back to sleep. As I cleaned up in the bathroom, a sudden thought struck me. Shit.Mentally calculating how long it had been seen I last got my period, I concluded that I was at least two weeks late. Although this was a rare occurrence, I wouldn’t have worried about the implications of it had
