Now, as I looked at Lenora, I could see the love and adoration in her eyes as she gazed up at Horace. It was clear to me that she had moved on, finding happiness and love in the arms of my brother, and that she was serious when she said she would make me pay for her mother's death.

I thought I had the upper hand because she didn't accept the rejection, but right inside that room, when she accepted my rejection, I knew there was no room for me.

But I had to keep trying.

My heart was heavy with regret and sadness as I realized that I had lost the three women the moon goddess gave me as mates.

I watched as Horace pulled Lenora close, wrapping his arms around her and kissing her forehead.

Despite my feelings of jealousy and pain, I forgot I had a woman who I loved and wanted as a mate; she was the reason I rejected Lenora.

    NORA'S POV"What!" I gasped as I watched him rake his fingers through his hair."You are so naughty," Affirming, he jerked my head in the direction of his chest."I had no idea," He lifted his shoulder in a half-shrug while I turned my face away; he was so naughty.But if that is actually what he wants, I will gladly show him how much I love him tonight.I didn't know anything about it, but if I made the first move, he would take over.We emerged from the dining hall, greeted by the soothing glow of torches that lined the hallway.

    "I have waited for many years, yet my brother has rejected three mates but me... I got no one. Mother, I'm getting old," Horace said, his voice direct.Horace took a deep breath and let it out slowly before responding. "I couldn't stand to see her suffer," he said, his voice low and serious. "She was heartbroken, and I knew she deserved better than to be cast aside like that."Queen Naida regarded her son for a moment, her eyes narrowing slightly as she considered his words. "I understand your compassion, my son," she said finally. "But you must realize that your brother may not take it likely, nor will he understand it from your point of view.""Do you realize the cold she felt from the rejection? The pack rejected her, and they all agreed when he wanted to sell her off."At this point, I knew he lied because I was especially hot.But then I began to think about why I was hot instead of cold.

    "Come here and sit beside me." He pointed at the couch, which was opposite the Queen. "Sarah, prepare a warm bath for my son's mate. She looks worn off," Queen Naida said, as my eyes widened in shock. I turned and stared at Horace. "Is that true?" "No, it's not," I said, whispering. Closing the little distance between us, he drew closer to my ear, his breath tickling my inner nerves, "Don't worry, she's always like that; she has always wanted to do it whenever I got a mate." He whispered softly. "I will do just that, My Queen," Sarah said as she turned around and strode out of the room. "Son, have you noticed anything strange happening in the pack lately?" Queen Naida asked, her voice low and cautious. It was said that the grand Luna of every pack has keen senses and always notices any unusual activity among the pack members before the Alpha does, and I guess that's true because I was certain Horace wasn't aware of this one. Horace tilted his head, his bright eyes wide with cu

"Arrgghh, fuck it," I squeaked. "I want it all inside me…." I pleaded, running my fingers into his hair."I will be careful; it's your first time," he said.

    NORA'S POV As the morning light streamed through the curtains, casting a warm glow on the tousled sheets of the king-sized bed, I slowly stirred from my slumber, slowly opened my eyes, and became aware of a dull ache in my body. My senses came into focus, and I became aware of the soft, warm weight beside me and the faint smell of earth that lingered in the air. A smile played at the corners of my lips as memories of last night flooded back to me, and I felt a sense of contentment wash over me—the intense pleasure I had experienced with Horace. My whole body was sore, especially in between my legs, but most satisfyingly, my lips were swollen and tender, a reminder of the hours of kissing and suckling we had indulged in. My neck and shoulders were stiff, not to mention my hair. It was a mess. The memory of our fingers entwined and their lips locked in a passionate kiss made my heart race.
