I thought I was going to hit my head on the front seat, but a huge hand stopped me in mid-air as his beautiful dark eyes rested on me. "You're right, I'm hungry" he said. I swallowed as I felt his hand on my chest before he slid down to my cheek and ran his thumb across my lips. For a second, I thought everything stopped around me, but I snapped back to reality. "Please don't be mad at your parents" I said, not knowing how to break eye contact "I appreciate you protecting me today, no one has ever done that before" he added.He squeezed my chin, forcing me to look him in the eye again. Fuck, this man's intense gaze was magic. I immediately remembered what had happened in his office. His touch, his lips, his delicious scent? Everything was magical. "I..."I tried to say something before he made a sudden move and pressed his lips against mine. My eyes widened in surprise at his sudden action, but it didn't take me long to let myself fall into his delicious taste.I placed my han
From Bennett's point of viewIt had been almost 20 minutes since we had started the drive when we finally arrived at the small restaurant. The place was small. I parked the car in the building and frowned as I looked out the window "Is this it?" I asked a little hesitantly. "Yes" she replied looking back at me to adjust her dress and hair.Afterwards, we both got out of the car and walked towards the restaurant. However, I couldn't help but notice Hester's excitement. I didn't understand why she was acting like that, the place was small, like a normal restaurant. It didn't even look fancy and gave the feeling that any member of the pack could go there.Thinking about that, I suddenly noticed that she intertwined her hand with mine and winked at me before guiding me towards the small tables. As soon as I scanned the place, I noticed it was different from the rest. The tables were on an outdoor terrace decorated only with lamps and pink and white flowers. "Today it's on me" she sai
After all, he wanted my body and I was afraid that when he got it, he would reject me or throw me out of his life. Thinking about that, I fiddled nervously with my fingers when Anna took my hand and smiled. "You mustn't be afraid. He loves you, I can be sure, besides he is your mate, trust him" she said with an encouraging tone. "Maybe you're right" I answered nodding. "Believe me, besides, he made the teacher change your group with Freddy, who does that if he doesn't feel interest?" added Anna."It's different. Freddy is my ex-boyfriend... ""Enough, he's jealous of you and it's not the first time he does it" said Anna looking at me with severity. In fact, she was right. After talking, we talked for a couple of minutes until I returned home. As soon as I arrived, I greeted my mother and went upstairs to pack, because the airport was far from home and I had to leave soon. When I finally got dressed, I went downstairs to say goodbye to my mother, but just then the phone rang. "
In the blink of an eye, Bennett and I were on the plane, leaving the pack. I had never been on a plane before, so a sense of nervousness came over me. I clenched my hands fearfully as the movements of the plane as it landed made my skin crawl. "Oh, dear, oh, dear. I don't want to die here" I muttered to myself as I squeezed my eyes shut. However, at that moment a slight smile was heard from beside me. Without saying anything, I opened my eyes and saw Bennett looking at me with his gaze and a smirk on his face. I didn't even get a chance to say anything when suddenly the plane made a sudden movement and I inadvertently jumped and grabbed Bennett's hand."Shit, shit, shit, shit!" I screamed to myself. Bennett looked at me, took my hand and sighed deeply "You need to calm down" he said, wrapping his arm around my neck. He sank my head into his chest and I sniffed his delicious scent. Meanwhile, he patted my back and a sense of relief washed over me. After a couple of minutes,
After looking out the balcony for a few minutes, I turned to Bennett, who was already on the couch with a cigarette in his hand. Shit, this guy was getting better and better looking. Even smoking, his expression was glorious. Without realizing it, as I rambled in my thoughts, I scanned the suite.But, after scanning a bit, I only saw one room. So I walked over to Bennett and smiled nervously at him "What's my room?".He took a puff on his cigarette and pointed to the room "That's the one"."And where are you going to sleep?" I asked. He let out a grin, withdrew the butt of his cigarette and smiled mischievously "There's only one bedroom here".When I heard those words, a wave of nerves came over me. Was he serious?"What?" I asked with my stomach churning. "What you heard" He said with a mischievous expression. "But... How are we going to sleep in the same room?"Even my question made me blush. However Bennett looked at me and let out a smirk. "Tell me, how could we sleep togethe
From Bennett's point of view. I knew Hester was hiding her dreamy body under all those clothes, but when I saw her rolled up in that tiny towel, I could see how big her breasts were and how her ass was sticking out. I swallowed saliva as I watched her. However, I couldn't keep my eyes on her eyes; instead, I turned my gaze to her neck, full of water droplets, as she held the towel to her chest. Her body was that of a goddess, with perfect curves and exposed thighs. The desire to see her naked increased with each passing second.Shit, I wanted to see her completely naked with her legs open for me. At that thought, my wolf growled desperately inside me. "Stop it, stop it!" I said to my wolf to try to calm him down. As I was arguing with my wolf, Hester's voice was heard "I...I...I...wasn't planning on seducing him, alpha" she said with a nervous tone. Her innocent tone made my desire to steal her innocence increase. A sigh left my lips as I suddenly looked at her neck and wante
After greeting everyone, Bennett made his way to one of the main tables located next to Alpha Samuel. On the other hand, as usual, I stood next to Bennett as I looked at Alpha Samuel's main secretary, took one of the tablets.However, as I was about to start the meeting, Bennett motioned and stopped them."You will sit here," said Bennett, pointing to the seat where Alpha Samuel was sitting.Hearing that, everyone's eyes widened in surprise. Bennett was ordering alpha Samuel to get up from his seat so I could sit down. With a sigh, Alpha Samuel smiled sheepishly and sat down in another seat. Bennett looked at him and then waved for me to sit down. I hurried to sit in the main seat as the eyes of those present were on me. "You may begin" Bennett said.The meeting lasted almost three hours and was uneventful; after all, Bennett had agreed to the conditions that Alpha Samuel had put in the new treaty. When the meeting was over, everyone left the meeting room, while Bennett walked
I felt like I had slept all day; indeed, when I finally opened my eyes, it was 11 pm. However, I noticed that Bennett had not yet arrived.I left the bedroom and went out onto the huge balcony. It was night, it was cold, and there was no one on the street. I tried to call Bennett, but his phone was off.Thinking that, my phone started ringing and I picked it up without looking at the screen. At first I thought it was Bennett, but when I heard my mother's voice, my smile faded. "Mother! Are you awake?""Yes, I'm waiting for a package?" she said in a soft tone. "A package? " I asked confused. "Yes, it's the presents I'm sending to Alpha for his birthday" she added. When I heard those words, my eyes widened full of surprise "What are you talking about?""Honey, you are the alpha's secretary, didn't you know that tomorrow is his birthday? Everyone in the pack usually sends him birthday presents, the celebration lasts almost three days!"A wave of nerves ran through my body, how could
Bennett's growl made everyone fall to their knees on the ground at once. At that moment, my eyes fell on his face. His grim expression and the way his eyes turned black made him look fucking sexy. Thinking about that, I shook my head and snapped back to reality. "Are you okay?" Lucas asked.I nodded my head and looked at him with a raised eyebrow "Lucas? Why did you bring him? I called out to you!" I asked in a soft whisper.Lucas stroked my hair as he held my hand "I was at the Alpha mansion when I got your call".When I heard that, a solar discomfort crossed my chest. I couldn't help but think of Agatha, who now lived there, and Bennett, who evidently went to see her."Hester, why were you out of the house? You're still hot with fever" she hinted at me when she saw my silence.I looked up and smelled Bennett's delicious scent. But, before I could say anything, the old man's voice was heard. "Alpha, Bennett, please forgive us..." said the man fearfully.Bennett looked at the man a
Immediately, four burly men approached from the parking lot. Two of them grabbed the girl's arm and tried to pull her away from me, while the other two guards grabbed me by the waist and dragged me away. The girl's screams, full of terror, could be heard over and over again. My mind was clouded for a few seconds as everyone passing by on the street began to approach to see the scene. "Let go of me!" I couldn't even finish my words when suddenly the old woman pushed me and I fell backwards to the ground. The pain in my back became even more intense as I tried to get up "Leave the girl alone!" I shouted angrily.Alpha Erik let out a growl and stopped in front of me "Who the hell do you think you are to threaten an alpha?" he insinuated, kicking my side causing a scream of pain to escape my lips.I didn't even say a word when he leaned over and grabbed my neck. "I don't know who the hell you are, but you just made a huge mistake. I'll make your life a living hell! I wasn't scared of
After a few minutes, I got off the elevator and walked through the lobby straight to the exit, but, just then, Delilah's gaze landed on me. I tried to ignore her and make my way, but she ran up and stopped right in front of me with a smile on her face."Oh, Hester, is something wrong? Let me guess..." Delilah paused as her sneer became more and more evident. It was obvious that everyone in the company knew about Bennett's engagement. At that, I looked away from Delilah and tried to make my way over, but she stopped me again. "I know... Alpha showed you where you really belong. Gosh, have you seen Miss Agatha? She's a goddess, she's beautiful, she's got money, she's elegant, and besides, she's marrying Alpha Bennett. Clearly, there is no more room for trash lovers like you" Delilah said mockingly. Her words came to me like a big poisoned dagger, but I just shook my head and looked at her. "You can believe whatever you want. I don't have time for your bullshit"I didn't expect her
The mere touch of Bennett's hand on my wrist made my whole body shudder. I immediately turned my gaze to him and tried to break free from his grip, but he tightened his fingers and held me steady. "Why are you so stubborn?" he asked looking at me with his deep, cold eyes. "I don't want you to touch me again," I growled, before I jerked my hand roughly and loosened his grip.I took a step back and pulled my body away from his, but he frowned and his gaze became calmer."You're still burning hot. You have a fever""That's none of your business. Go and worry about your wife, she's your future Luna, she does deserve all your concern." A roar came out of my throat without me being able to help it.I wanted to turn and run away from the office, but he grabbed my arm again and pulled me to his hard chest "You must calm down" he said, leaving his warm breath on my face. "Let go of me! I'm not going to calm down!" I screamed, struggling to pull away from his grip, but he only tightened hi
When I finished showering, I stepped out of the bathroom and noticed that my body was shaking. I shook my head to calm down as I put on a dress and a pair of low heels. Part of me wanted to go back to bed and keep sleeping, but I needed to break away from this thing that was killing me inside. . Thinking about it, I combed my hair and went downstairs to the living room. "Will you go out?" my mother asked with a raised eyebrow. "Yes, I'll go to the company. I must finish some urgently needed work" I hinted, clenching my fists behind my back. "But you have a fever. You can't. "Don't worry. I'll be fine" I announced trying to calm my mother down. She nodded and I said goodbye before leaving the house. I took a cab and headed for the company.As soon as the car pulled up, my eyes widened at the decorations all over the place. It was obvious that everything was for Bennett's engagement. "We've arrived" said the cab driver, snapping me out of my thoughts. "Thank you very much", I s
After talking to Lucas for a while, he let out a sigh and got up from the couch "Are you hungry? Do you want me to fix you something to eat?" "No, thanks. Where's my mother?" I asked, changing the subject."She's asleep. I didn't want her to be here when you came over" He said with a raised eyebrow."Thank you. I'll go to my room. I'll get some sleep" I said getting up from the couch without any encouragement. Lucas nodded his head, but before I took a step, I heard his voice at my back "Are you going to be okay?". At his question, I turned around and a smirk left my lips "Lucas... if you knew Bennett was going to marry Agatha, why didn't you tell me? He has to reject me in order to marry me" I asked curiously. "I know. And you don't know how much I thought about it. But, when I went back to training, Alpha Bennett talked to me" he said, leaving me surprised. "What?""Apparently there's a way to break the mate bond without you dying or him losing the title. But only he knows that
From Lucas's point of viewWhat had happened to Hester? Where could she be? I walked in circles all damn night hoping to find her. However, when I finally got through to her, she sounded dazed, as if something bad had happened. "Did you talk to her?" my mother suddenly asked. "Yes, she... She spent the night with some friends. She'll be back soon" I said, lying. My mother sighed in relief and went back to her room. After all, we'd been up all morning waiting for Hester. I really wanted to talk to Hester alone when she got home. She didn't sound good on the phone, which set off an alarm in me. Thinking about it, I heard a car parked in front of the house. I quickly ran to the window and saw her get out of the car. I opened the door and waited for her, but, as soon as she looked at me, I was wide-eyed. Her eyes were puffy and her dress was wet. "Hester, what happened to you?" I asked, swallowing spittle.Her small body began to tremble as she took a deep breath "I just spent
I wiped the handkerchief across her cheek and wiped them away. She froze for a second, until something brought her back to herself and she snatched the handkerchief from my hand."What are you doing?" "I dry your tears" I answered. "What for? Who cares what I look like? The only one I cared that saw me, doesn't care about me. He only saw me with eyes of lust" she added turning her face red again."Leave that man" I hinted. She let out a bitter smile and threw the handkerchief to the ground "I know he doesn't love me, nor does he care about our bond. But I don't plan to destroy him, I'll just walk away and get my life together. You can leave me alone" she hinted sure of her words.She tried to turn to walk away, but a smirk peeked at my lips "Do you really think Alpha Bennett will let you go so easily? He won't stop. He'll find you and lock you up. Only I can get you out of his malicious clutches"She looked at me without saying anything. She just smiled curtly and walked off into t
How could I live now without Bennett? I had fallen completely in love with the man. Suddenly, all the memories of him came to my mind. His face, his body, the way I thought he treated me out of love.... It was all a lie. I had deluded myself into something that didn't exist. He was the alpha Bennett, a man without heart or mercy. Everyone was right: Bennett was cruel. However, as those thoughts entered my head, I felt my eyes sparkle strangely. "Stop the car!" I shouted.Despite that, however, Walter looked at me and continued driving. "Stop the damn car!" I shouted loudly.At that, Walter slammed on the brakes and stopped the car in a corner of the road.Without saying anything, I opened the door and tried to get out, but, just before I put my legs out, I felt Walter grab my arm. "Where are you going?” he asked as he approached me "This place is dangerous" he said as he approached me. I felt his breath hit my face, but I didn't push him away; rather I looked him in the eyes
