NORA

I had intentionally looked up at him with a curious glint in my eyes and asked him to take off my dress. I wanted to know how much he really cared about me.

How much he craved for me...

How much he's stopping himself from touching me...

I was sure his heart had skipped a beat because he was certain that he would never have thought that he would hear that from me. I could hear the fear in his voice when I asked him to take off my dress.

I had no idea what was wrong with me either.

When he left to get my dress, I found myself pacing around the bathroom, uncomfortable in my own skin.

I wondered why I was finding him attractive. I knew he was more attractive than Horace, but I loved Horace.

I've been finding it difficult to let him off my mind, but all to no avail... My life's a mess, and there is absolutely nothing I can do about it.

I had no idea if it was as a result of him always being there with me or of him always looking out for me.

I had no idea if my feelings were uneasy bec

    NORAHis arms wrapped tight around my waist, and his hands reached up to cradle my face as he leaned in and kissed me deeply.As our lips met, I could feel the heat between us intensify. I kissed him deeply, his lips soft and gentle against mine.He grabbed my waist... I could feel his arms wrapping tightly around my waist, pulling me closer. His tongue darted out to meet mine, my hands reaching up to tangle in his hair as he pressed my body closer to his, lost in the moment.His tongue ran over my lips, and I opened my mouth. Our bodies pressing against each other, he reached up, his fingers grazing against the base of my neck.I moaned softly as his fingers played with my hair, and he smiled at the filthy sounds escaping from my lips.He ran his fingers over my skin, tracing the lines of my curves as I wrapped my arms around his waist.My heart was beating so fast, I could hear each thud in my ears, but I focused and wanted to focus on the moment, on the feeling of being so close to

    HORACEI paced around Nora's chamber... she wasn't there, and it was dawn.I couldn't mind link with her, and she had no phone to communicate with her. After knowing who she really is, I felt like I didn't know her anymore.I felt like she was hiding from me... I couldn't reach her anymore, and my heart kept yearning for her.She told me she didn't love my brother, but after I found her in his arms, she looked more relaxed than she had ever been in my arms.It seemed like Gavner was hellbent on going after her, and I needed to do something about it.He didn't have the right to go after my mate, not after he had rejected her.I was trying to keep my cool because I realized that Nora was loving his company.I grasped my head, wondering where she was.The door was slightly pushed open as I turned to see who was there."Horace," she called, her voice weak as she switched the light on.She looked weak and feeble. "Where were you?" I asked.She strolled into the room, slumping on the bed. "I

    NORAIt's been weeks since I went rampage, and just like Gavner had promised, he will make sure I do not kill again. He did as he promised.I've been getting oxblood meals, fresh pig flesh, milk, and some other things. He personally handed over the blood bags to me.After we spent time with ourselves in the shower, he took his time to make sure I was doing alright.There was a knock on the door. I quickly stood up and walked toward the door to check it out."My lady, this is for you." A maiden said, and I nodded, carefully carrying the contents from her."Thank you," I said, and she slightly bowed her head before walking away.I shut the door, and as I quickly unwrapped what was handed over to me, my jaw dropped.Fear gripped me... it was unintentional.I wasn't scared, but Daciana was... she was whimpering.She had to take enough from me being a Tribrid... I was hurting her, so I decided that I'd let her have her way if that was going to make her okay.I rushed to the door, opening i

    VLADIt has been weeks since I've been stalking through the shadows in the woods, concealed by the darkness as I watched Nora's every move.I had also seen Marcel a couple of times as he watched her as well, but unknown to him, I was still doing the same.I couldn't imagine the outrage that would occur in less time than I expected. She looked broken, trying to pick up the pieces of her life even though she became the Luna of the pack.I was certain that she didn't want her life to be the way it was.But still, I can't leave her untaken care of... she will be the cause of so much evil untold.I had thought of revealing myself to her, but I think I should wait longer.I turned in the direction of the door as it screeched open. Marcel walked in with a long face, probably because he didn't like the task assigned to him. The fact he didn't like it, is the main reason I made him do it, so he would be heartless about what he doesn't care about and finish up his task.Bowing his head slightly

    HORACEI didn't care about what people would think about my decisions... All I was ready to do was deal with people who disrespected my mate.This incident is going to stand as a lesson to those who are still planning to be unruly.I looked around, satisfied that Nora wasn't here to see such a scene unfold because, definitely, she would not allow me to make a sure decision.As soon as they raised their swords, I turned my face to my side, not wanting to ruin my sight.I heard a heartbreaking sound as the sword made contact with the lady's flesh.I could hear the cries of other wolves as the sword sliced through her, her head falling and rolling on the floor of the platform.Standing up from my chair, I faced the crowd, their cries and noise lessened. "This should stand as a warning to the rest of you... I would not think twice before wiping anyone who plans to make life unfortunate for my mate from this earth."~"You know the day I was slashed with a sword?" Matteo asked as he strode

    HORACEI knew Gavner hated me already, but I needed him to hate me more than he already does."You have your eyes on my mate, why?" I asked if only I could know what he could do for Nora.I could do more for her than he has ever done.And when he's gone—far away—I'll erase every memory of him she has ever had.His gaze darted from me to his already-fisted hands. "The moment your hands touch me, you are leaving immediately," I threatened. I didn't care if he was my elder brother or anything.All I wanted badly was for him to leave Nora alone, but he was hellbent on getting her back.I could see him struggling to calm himself down as he crossed his arms together.That was the only thing he could do if he at least wanted to see Nora for the last time."I've never wanted to ask you this, but I feel today is the right day to ask..." he paused, avoiding eye contact with me. "Why do you enjoy claiming anything that belongs to me?""Do you really love to see me on your feet, pleading for wha

    NORAI was pacing around my room after I had searched for Gavner everywhere in the castle but couldn't find him.Has he gone?Without seeing me?I had no idea why I wasn't happy. I was supposed to be happy that he was finally leaving my life, but I'm tensed up.Memories flashed back right in front of my eyes, making me realize the only mistake he made was rejecting me and trying to sell me off.He has been there for me in ways I couldn't explain—how he was there at the right timing... Now Horace has ordered him to leave.I grasped my head in pain... I wasn't sure I would be able to cope. Apart from Marcel, he was the only one who helped subside my hunger for blood.I didn't trust him, but I knew he'd keep his word when he said he was going to be there for me.My head was going berserk when the door pushed open and Lilith walked in.Rushing to her, I held her hand, my face explaining everything I wanted to say.She sighed, "He's nowhere in the castle."I intended on talking with Horace

    NORAKneeling as she supported her weight with a hand, she gripped her neck, rubbing it down to her chest, trying to regain her voice.Matteo's eyes darkened with rage. "I warned you, stay away from her!""This is not your territory... stay away from her," Matteo warned as he rushed over to Lilith, cradling her as he pushed her hair behind her ears."What are you doing here?" Matteo asked Marcel as he carried Lilith in his arms, placing her on my bed.Quickly, I walked up to Matteo. "It's a long story," I whispered."I'm here to catch prey!" Marcel said as he adjusted his coat, making my words useless.I stood still for a while, glaring at him, wondering if I was the prey he was talking about.'Are you here for me?' I asked myself.'Are you here to capture me when the right time comes?' I felt a sharp pain in my chest... It hurt like I was shot directly in the heart.I almost lost my balance, but I held on to my knee as I grasped in pain.Daciana winced.Marcel rushed up to me, almost

Thorin asked."I'm really scared of staying here in this castle...

    NORAI had no idea why that happened to be the question Horace had to ask me... he made my heart beat a thousand times.Fear and anxiety engulfed my entire body system as I was shaken by forces I had no idea about."What do you mean by that?" I asked instantly, feeling uncomfortable.He shook his head. "Forget about it... I didn't mean to do that to you, and trust me this once when I say I'm not here to harm you," he said. The sincerity in his eyes pulled me to him.No!I waved it off.I wouldn't fall for his tricks, or rather, the tricks of the dragon!"Why are you here?" I asked, and I needed an answer that was straight to the point. "You know you can actually sit down if you want to talk to me, and not squatting right in front of me makes me uncomfortable."That wasn't the reason I said that... he was just right there. Very close to my unborn child. Why?Why does he have to be so close to me if he just wants to speak to me?Now I have no idea what to do. I'm heavily pregnant, and I
