Sheila looks as surprised as me for a few seconds before getting up to follow her brother-in-law, closing both doors of the dinning room behind her so I don’t have to hear whatever rude things Alpha Robert is saying about me right now. I drop the spoon onto the plate and cover my face with my hands for a few seconds. God, everything was going so well."What happened?" Beau asks next to me, confused and his chin completely dirty from the soup. I grab a napkin to wipe it off as I take a deep breath."I don't know, Buba," I admit, considering going back to our room and calling Theodore to tell him what just happened and ask if I should leave the house or something, but before I can, Sheila returns. On her own, "Is he okay?""He is," she returns to her seat and sighs, "Please, excuse him. It's... it's hard for him, seeing his wife's ring on someone else."I swallow with embarrassment and look down at my hand. I should have taken this damn ring off days ago. It doesn't belong to me in th
While Nukea and the boys walk around the apartment to make sure everything we bought yesterday was correctly delivered, Rahul, Hellen and I sit down on the new couch to sign the necessary papers and make the payment. "Nukea, come here," I call her a few seconds later. When she approaches us, I hand her a pen and show her the papers, "You have to sign this. The apartment is in your name. You're going to keep all the paperwork.""Okay, I-I understand," she replies looking somewhat stunned, but she sits next to me and signs her name on the contract anyway. Rahul tells her a couple of things about the building and when it's all over, we walk to the door to register the Winters’ fingerprints on the front lock."Theo, you too," Nukea tells me once they finish. Everyone turns to look at me, waiting for me to respond or do something. I start to sweat under their stares, "Register your finger."I don't want to. I don't want to know I have such easy access to this place and I don't like the
"You know your dad's a piece of shit, don't you?" Liam says anyway, ignoring my warning. Nukea scoffs. She looks a little weirded out, but mostly unfazed. "Well, duh," she replies, rolling her eyes. Liam lets out a real laugh, "But I'm emancipated now. That man is no longer my father.""That's great... anyway, are you girls here on your own?" Liam asks, looking from Nukea to her friend and then back to our table, "You should join us. We're all single, good looking men. We would love some company.”I'm about to say something to stop this idiot and avoid the possibility of Nu saying yes, but I don't have to. "Actually, we're waiting for someone, so we have to go, but thank you," Nukea’s friend says with an extremely fake smile before squeezing Nukea's arm again to pull her, "Mister Theodore, thank you for helping my friend. That's all we wanted to say.""Yeah... enjoy your meal, Mister Next Alpha," Nu murmurs without meeting my eyes and gives me a small sarcastic bow that makes Liam l
I shouldn't go. Violet is going to be mad at me if Indo something so lame after Theo was so mean for no damn reason... but my body doesn’t care, it moves without my permission."I'm going to the bathroom, I'll be right back," I tell them in the most casual voice I can muster, they ignore me because they're still going on about something, "If the waitress comes before me, just order me the most expensive thing you can find in the menu.""Hell yeah," Vi replies with a chuckle and then I head to the bathroom, not turning to look at Theo's table again. I don't know if he's actually coming or not, I don’t even know if that head movement was actually a signal, but I couldn't just ignore it. I reach the hallway that leads to the bathrooms and I wait for a few seconds, not knowing what to do. I'm about to going back to the table when someone approaches. "Hey," Theo says with a shy smile. He turns his head to make sure no one is looking before opening the door to one of the personal restroo
When we get home, my two boys are sitting in the living room watching a movie, the plates I left them with dinner are on the coffee table completely empty, so I know they ate and everything is fine.We sit with them for a while so we’re forced to stop talking about what happened at the restaurant, but once the kids go to sleep we spend most of the night talking about how mean Theo was to me and how crazy Liam is, while eating ice cream. The next morning, though, my paranoid thoughts continue as soon as Nate and Violet leave, taking my brothers with them, and I'm left all alone. To get rid of the anxiety, I start cleaning the apartment, only stopping when my phone starts ringing. It's an unknown number, but I'm pretty sure I know who it is. "Yes?" I answer, my hands starting to sweat. "Hi, Nuke," I was right, it's Liam, "Are you busy?""Uhm, yeah, why?" "I want to see you right now. I know you don't have a real job, so send me your location and I'll come see you in like an hour,"
I think Liam is a little surprised by my sudden interest in kissing him because he lets out an obfuscated sound and moves back until he’s lying down on the couch, but I just follow him. Now I'm the one completely on top of him, actively kissing him. Liam's lips are firm and manly and he tastes like peppermint. His kiss feels completely confused, though, he only kisses me back to keep snapping pictures, but he doesn't try to stick his tongue inside of my mouth or anything and once he's done, he pushes me away from him and gives me a surprised look."What the hell, Omega? I should charge YOU for that. You went way too far," he complains, looking like he seriously didn't expect that, which makes me laugh a little. Why does he look so offended after acting so confident? "Anyway, that's all I wanted from you. I'll pick you up Friday at eight to go to the party. Wear something nice and don't do your make up like a whore.""Shut the fuck up, Liam," I shake my head, getting up to open the
{ Nukea }Liam is crushing the fuck out of my hand as we walk into Isabella's backyard after passing by her stupidly huge house, almost as big as Theo's. There are a lot of people here, but not enough people for us to go unnoticed. As soon as we arrive I can feel eyes on me. On us. "We have to say hello to...""What are you doing here?" Isabella demands looking straight at me, interrupting whatever Liam was going to say and walking towards us with a prominent scowl on her face, but looking beautiful in her light blue dress.I seriously hate her. She has no right to be so beautiful when she's so evil for no damn reason.Well… I guess there’s a reason, but she doesn’t even know that involved with Theo."Liam, what the fuck are you doing?" I hear from the other side and see Theo walking towards us as well. Holy shit. Both Isabella and Theo look like they personally want to kick me out of their event. I want to let go of Liam's hand, but he just squeezes it even tighter. "Ouch," I c
{ Theodore }Before I face Liam, I have to take a moment to myself to get my emotions under control and make sure I don't do anything stupid here. I know this is silly nonsense anyway. I know Nukea and Liam aren't really a couple and that he just wants to annoy me... but it's working. He finally found the exact way to get on my nerves effectively. And I hate it. "Hey, come here," Rahul says and grabs me, "Guys, wait a minute. Don't let him go."Rahul pulls me until we’re alone."I want to fucking kill him," I blurt out, Rahul just nods, "Not because I think he touched her, I know he didn't... but I'm so fucking sick of him. If it wasn't for his family, I'd actually consider banishment.”"Theo, come on, stop. It’s just jealousy,” Rahul grabs my arm until I stop pacing back and forth, "You and I both know Liam isn't that bad…”"No, you haven't been here lately. He's unbearable and he has something against me specifically, worse than ever. I'm starting to suspect he's fucking doing dr
Hi everyone! this is your author speaking. I hope you enjoyed this story and fell in love with Nukea and Theodore. But this universe isn’t over yet, there’s another book in my profile called “Fated Mate From Hell” and it’s about Isabella and Liam, because they deserve love, too… right? The first part of their book isn’t exactly a sequel, it’s more like their own side of the story you guys already know, but the second part of the book is all new :DI hope you enjoy their book! Here is the intro*** *** *** *** *** *** INTRO - Fated Mate From Hell { already available in my profile} { Isabella }Once upon a time, I used to have it all. I used to be envied and admired, even feared sometimes. Just one year ago, I was THAT girl. The girl everyone wants to be, the girl everyone gets compared to. I had everything I wanted in the palm of my hand, but after a few consecutive mistakes… I lost it.I lost everything. I lost everyone. And I was publicly humiliated in the process. It was so
I don't know at what point I fell asleep in between the sex marathon we had last night, but when I wake up I groan in pain because everything hurts. Every part of me is crying. But I can't even complain because I've never felt so much pleasure before. And I would do it again. And again. And again. I stretch out on the bed, groaning. Theo is lying on his stomach beside me. He's not moving at all and he's even snoring. I've never heard him snore like that before, so it makes me laugh a little. Poor Alpha, he's tired. I reach to kiss his back, but I stop in confusion with my lips against his skin because... he smells so... good. But different than normal. He smells like a man, he smells like mine, he smells like home, he smells like love and he smells like complete and total satisfaction. He smells so good that I stay there like a crazy person for almost a full minute, inhaling his scent like crazy. But once I finally get away from him, I realize it's not just him. I can smell thing
{ Nukea } I love my dress and my hair. I love everything about today. I literally have to restrain myself from squealing with excitement every five seconds. Plus, the spa day was so amazing that it helped to erase what little nerves I had, now I'm just excited and can't wait for my wedding to start... and end quickly, so the real fun with my man can begin.I look in the mirror as the bridal team works on my hair after finishing my make up. I’m absolutely gorgeous right now and no one could convince me otherwise. I look like a freaking goddess. I look so good I wish I was Theo so I could marry myself."Everything's ready, Luna Nukea," Holly says, walking into my prepping room very sweaty and with tousled blonde hair, she looks like she's been running from place to place nonstop. And I know she has. "You look amazing, by the way. Theo's a lucky man.""Thanks, Holly. You can relax now, go get ready for the wedding. And please, get super drunk at the party and have some well deserved f
{ Theodore }The month to our wedding goes by too slow and too fast at the same time, but before I know it, the day is here. Tomorrow, I will make Nukea my wife in front of everyone. And then I will finally get to mark her delicious neck and taste her blood for the first time. Then everything else will fall into place on its own. We will make Beau and Knox our sons legally and maybe we'll start talking about having out own baby. And then we'll have our happily ever after. Or at least that's my plan. "Baby, you'll have to sleep somewhere else tonight," Nukea tells me as we’re eating breakfast. I immediately look up at her with a frown. "Why would I do that?" I ask, offended. Nukea rolls her eyes."Because you're going to celebrate your bachelor party, so I'm going to celebrate my own bachelorette party right here. We'll spend our last night apart as 'single people' and then we can sleep together for the rest of our lives.”"Aww, how romantic," Knox scoffs with a mouthful of eggs."
Theo starts with the wedding preparations immediately. For real, as soon as our hug is over he calls Holly and asks her to get us a wedding planner. Holly, as always, did her homework in a matter of hours and all of a sudden my whole life is altered by an upcoming wedding. Fortunately, it's not difficult at all. I just have to say yes or no to the things presented to me by Ana, the wedding planner. Or choose what I like best. "I need your guest list," Ana says after I've decided on the wedding decorations and colors, "Can you send it to my email tomorrow? I'll start making the personal invitations. Holly already gave me Alpha Theodore's list, now I need yours.""I can give it to you right now: Knox, Beau, Violet, Nate... Violet's mother, Nate's mother, Violet's sister, both of their grandmothers and that's it.""Come on, you must have other people you want to invite," she says with a look of disbelief on her face. "No. I really don’t," I shrug, "I suppose I could invite some Hughm
I'm about to open my mouth and tell Nukea that her idea absolutely sucks, but Liam speaks first."That's impossible, Nuke," he says with a laugh, "Not only does she hate you, but she's... indisposed at the moment.""What do you mean by that?" I ask, my warning bells ringing immediately. I take a step closer to him, "What the hell did you do now, Liam?""She's in captivity," he mutters under his breath, evading my eyes and his scent thickening with guilt, which fills me with panic because I think about all the possibilities, "Before you both start freaking out, Isabella is not being tortured in my cabin. She's in my house, in a nice bedroom and she has my employees at her complete disposal. She's being treated like a queen... one who can't go anywhere yet. I'm afraid she’s going to run away again.""Liam...""I'm not hurting her in any way," he interrupts me, rolling his eyes, "Even if I wanted to hurt her, I couldn't. I wouldn't be able to. You understand that, don't you?""I underst
When I wake up in the morning, it's a little later than usual, but instead of stressing about starting the day too late, I decide to make the most of it. I relax against my mate’s warm little body and breathe in her sweet scent for a few minutes of complete peace before carefully getting up to start my morning routine, but on my way out, I grab Nukea's phone and turn off her alarm."Baby, you can sleep some more, I'll take the kids to school," I tell her after gently waking her up. Nukea sits up with wild hair and a confused face."What? Why? They have to shower, get dressed, eat breakfast and..." she says, trying to get up anyway, but I stop her once again. "I know, I'll deal with it," I assure, "I have to learn someday, don't I?""Oh, Theo… you always stress me out when you're trying to do the opposite," she complains, but falls back on the pillow, "Do whatever you want.""Okay, Nu," I laugh and move in to kiss her goodbye, "Meet me at the office for lunch?""Mhh, sure," she repli
{ Theodore }I leave the restaurant next to my father after a long day of listening to his fake stories of how he survived his ‘kidnapping’, while taking care of Millie. It was a long damn day, but at least it's over now. We both get in my car and I drive to his house after sending a quick text to Nukea to let her know I'll be home soon. "I'm surprised at how well people are taking the idea of Nukea being their Luna. I’ve heard mostly positive opinions," my dad mentions as I drive, "It's a good surprise.""It is. I guess our bond is enough to make them forget the fact that she's an omega and a 'Poor One'," I roll my eyes. My father just nods silently, "By the way... it’s funny how you kept the fact that Ruth is an omega to yourself, too.""I wasn't hiding it, I just didn't feel it was necessary to mention it, especially after how dismissive I've been towards omegas in the past," he murmurs with a hint of remorse in his voice, "Being away from Greyhound opened my eyes a bit. We’re as
Today is the boys' first day of school and they both look extremely beautiful in their uniforms, so I take a bunch of pictures of them before I drive them to their fancy school. "Please, Beau, don't ever repeat that Liam killed our father," I tell him on the way over, "Or anything else like that. In fact, avoid any family topics, please.""Okay, Nookie.""Knox, whenever you have a free moment go check on your brother, just to see if he's doing okay on his first day," I continue. He says 'sure' and just keeps listening to me as I ramble all the way there.I swallow before coming out and I follow them inside, fixing my dress and hair as we go. There's some staff by the door waiting for the kids and one of them is the lady who was here when I came to register the kids for school. She gives me a knowing look and raises an eyebrow, I guess now she knows who paid for my kids' education."Good morning, Luna Nukea. My name is Sally, I’m the prefect," an older woman approaches, "Little ones,
