MARK ME"W-What are you talking about?!" I asked, completely bewildered. "You heard me... b-beg?" He deeply sighed. "Yes, sweetheart. I heard you that night, not only that, I also felt your pain."He took my hands and played with my finger after. But his words made me think deeply. "If you heard me then I'm not hallucinating, too," I uttered under my breath."Hallucinating about what?" he asked, his forehead forming a knot. "I--- I think I heard you, too." His eyes widened in shock after hearing what I said. "I also heard a voice that night before I lost consciousness," I added as I tried recalling the events before. "I said... I'm sorry," he whispered. I gasped softly after he said those. But what he said what true. The voice I heard uttered 'I'm sorry'. And those were the last words I heard before I succumb to darkness. "After knowing your pain I made another decision I never thought I will do."I faced him. I don't know what else he did but the longer we talk, the louder my
"IT'S NOT LIKE I am suspecting but... I noticed something in Lucien's eyes whenever you and he spent time together. Something I've never seen before. That's how I started to wonder, what if you are Lucien's mate?" She chuckled lightly. "As you continue to stay here, I witnessed before me the changes in your relationship with my brother. I haven't told you about this but I actually made some investigation into your life before. And I was shocked at what I found out. The night Lucien tried to cut his red string was the same night you felt that pain. The kind of pain that only a mate can feel whenever he or she is rejected. So, I confronted Lucien about it but my brother is hard-headed and he was consumed with the fear of losing you. He thinks you'll leave him the moment you'll learn the truth. But, Ysobella, what he did, I know it's wrong. He kept things from you but he only did it because he loves you. He loves you like he never loved anyone before."Despite the pain I felt, I still f
MARKED "OWN ME, LUCIEN... mark me." Lucien cursed after I said those words. His grip on my waist tightened while his breathing became rough. His eyes are also filled with emotions that I am very well familiar with. Soon, his lips descended to give me a fiery kiss. I felt his tongue knocking for an entrance seconds later so I opened my mouth to give him what he wants. His tongue explored my mouth like he was looking for something. His callous hands started to explore my body with sensuality. Shortly, his lips moved to my jaw, slightly biting it. He then trailed his lips to my neck, sucking it. "Ahh..." A soft moan escaped my mouth when his hands groped my breasts. I was too clouded with the sensation he was giving me. I tried grinding on his lap which earned a groan from him. My eyes then rolled and I sigh in pleasure when I finally felt his hardened member between my legs. Lucien's hands are now groping my butt cheeks, so I doubled my pace to entice him further, and after th
I STOPPED MINCING the vegetable I am holding. Lucien and I haven't talked about it yet but he mentioned to me before that he wants to make us official."Sissy?" she called me again."U-Uh, we haven't talked about it," I told her. "Why so? He marked you already," she said, her forehead forming a knot. I sighed and place the knife on the table. "Honesty... I'm scared. I fear that I might not be able to fulfill my duties and responsibilities as the Luna of the pack. And I am also concerned about Lucien's reputation. What if they won't accept that a mere human is destined with their Alpha? I'm just a normal being. I'm not particularly strong, and I don't even have healing abilities. If I can't protect myself, how can I possibly protect Lucien when things go wrong? How can I face the pack if I don't have the strength to defend them? To engage in battle with them?" I heard Ayla sighed then she squeezed my hand."Look, Ysobella Marie... I understand you have a lot of insecurities and conce
BONDING CEREMONYLUCIEN SENT THE invitations to the Elders the next day, and he had already given the orders to his people in preparation for our bonding ceremony in two days. And regarding my brother, we have already talked about it. He assured me that my brother would arrive a day before the ceremony because he had already sent someone to fetch him.I am excited but at the same time nervous. I honestly do not know what's going to happen if we come face-to-face with each other. We have a lot to talk about, especially from what happened with our parents. Since I am left with nothing to do, I decided to visit the library to read. I have already spoken with Lucien before, about my desire to learn the history of Preousia. I'd like to learn how to handle situations in this land as a future Luna, and I'd like to know what else I can do for the wolf pack.When I entered the library, I was stunned to see Nereza, sitting on a chair, with books and old scrolls piled on the table before her. I
ACCORDING TO HIM, after making sure I was safe he left to help my parents but it was no use."We tried fighting them but we failed. Father pushed me off the cliff to save me from the rogues. I--- I w-wanted to help them, Ysobella b-but..."His voice broke and he wasn't able to continue his sentence. I squeezed his shoulder to send comfort. "I couldn't do anything, Ysobella. I was badly injured after our father pushed me off the cliff. At the same time, I felt useless and angry. I'm angry at myself because I couldn't save our parents and all I could do was cry in grief as I listened to their screams as the rogues murdered them," he uttered in pain and regret.I rested my head on his shoulder while indulging him to talk further. I want him to let it all out. I want him free from his guilt."I didn't want to waste our parents' sacrifice, so I returned to you with all of my remaining strength, but something happened. I fell to the ground unexpectedly, and when I awoke, I was already in a
PREGNANTDAYS PASSED AND everything seemed normal. The Elders left the following day and Clarrise left two days after. My brother on the other hand is still staying in the mansion. Atticus and Lucien have previously worked out their differences in the past. Atticus also took the time to get to know the people who had been looking after me throughout the previous years. He even said he is delighted and grateful for me since I have someone to lean on amid the hardships. But I can't help my sadness for the life he spent before Draven found him. He was alone for ten years, with no one to lean on and no light to guide him in the darkness of despair. I know he chose to live that way because he fears hurting innocent people. Things didn't go easy on him, especially when we both lost our parents. He even expressed fear of becoming a cold-blooded killer like those who murdered our parents. And he explained that he couldn't bring himself to return to me because he was afraid of hurting me. B
AFTER WHAT HAPPENED in Lucien's studies he brought me back to our room. He took me again in the shower and our bed. And when night fell, I chose to dine in our room. The next day I feel weary and my muscles hurt, especially in the lower part of my body.My Alpha is indeed a beast. A beast in bed.I groaned and sit on the bed. Lucien left earlier to get us some food but it didn't take long before he came back. "Sweetheart, I have our food.""Let's eat here in bed," I told him weakly. I don't think I have enough strength to move my legs. "Why?" he asked with worried. "Does it still hurt? Sweetheart, do you want me to get Doctor Morgan?"I shook my head. "No need. I'll just need a rest," I assured him but Lucien insisted on calling Doc Morgan so I nodded in defeat eventually.After our meal, he called Doc Morgan's attention to our room. "Lucien, you do realize that Bella is a normal being, and she doesn't heal as quickly as we do, so you might as well consider being gentle to her," Do
