SethMy throat bobbed as I swallowed, my hand shaking slightly under her gaze as she pinned me with her unwavering stare, her eyes hiding all the emotions she was feeling, if she was feeling any.She was scarier than she thought, and right now she looked every bit of an elegant queen and I was nothing but a mere Knight with a crush.I may not be wearing an armour but why is it so damn hot in here?"Well uh," I started, my voice wavering as it reached my ears.Naimi rose a brow, waiting for me to complete my sentence, but a sigh left my lips and I dropped the offerings I came bearing on the couch, and moved closer to her.Her gaze faltered as I moved closer to her. I brought out a hand and caressed her face, and to my surprise she never pulled away, but her eyes never left mine."I came here to apologise, but I don't know where to start. Aubrey and Hazel helped me with the presents, but here I am, making a fool of their kindness. I'm sure Aubrey wouldn't let me hear the end." I chuckle
NaomiSeth and I walked hand in hand to see Tia and Asher. After many fussed from both of them on me, and apologies, they finally let me apologise for what happened."It's not your fault, Naomi. It's that horrid girl. She takes after her mother. Too bad Connor and Maxwell had to grow with horrid people. Maxwell lost his daughter, but Connor lost his mother and sister because of their wickedness and greed. " Tia shook her head in disappointment as she thought it over, and I silently thought, my mind going to Connor. He always acts strong for all of us, but was that the sort of environment he grew up in? Where he suffered and suffered until he couldn't suffer anymore?Seth turned to Asher, who was deep in thought as he stroked his beard. "Dad, I don't know what to do to Violet and Sheila. They've been cuffed up, but I don't know what to do. They are still Connor and Maxwell's family."Silence fell as we silently thought. Connor hated his family, but he still didn't hate them. But he wo
Naomi"I want to take you on a vacation after our baby's gender reveal."Seth declared after I finished my meeting with the planners and the maids on the preparation for my gender reveal picnic. It was only going to be us, Asher and Tia, our friends and Maxwell, Connor's father so it wasn't much of a party.It was going to hold in just a few days, and this idea of a vacation was perfect. Just what I needed after the hell of a year I've had, and the fact that my due date was getting closer and closer by the day.My eyes met Seth's and I smiled. "That's great honey. I cannot wait for that."He visibly relaxed, his smile mirroring mine. "I've owed you a vacation for over a month now. But it's better late than never."Seth and I haven't been quite the same since the incident, but I have forgiven him since it happened, and he saw to the right penalties given to Violet and her mother without killing them, so there was nothing to be mad about. But things were strained. For whatever reason,
One Hundred and Sixty-five NaomiThe day of the baby shower was here, and I was filled with excitement. Today was the day I was finally going g to know my baby's gender, and although me, Xander, Aubrey and Asher want it to be a girl, I was ready to accept whatever gender my baby would be.I already loved the ball of joy, but not everyone thought like me.The garden was decorated with blue and pink flowers and balloons, and it was divided into two sections. There was the blue section for the team boys, which consisted of Seth, Tia, Connor and Hazel, who were fiercely rooting for the baby to be a boy and even went as far as wearing blue clothes and painting their faces blue and holding blue streamers.I was a hypocrite, a big one because my side was just as competitive. Xander was placing pink petals while wearing a pink t-shirt that read, "World's favourite girl uncle," while Aubrey was getting her face painted by Asher who wore a similar shirt to Xander's, but instead grandfather in
NaomiMaxwell brought out the envelope and a blue confetti came out of it.“It’s a boy!” Maxwell screamed and we all joined him, including those of us in team baby girl.Seth rushed at me and planted kisses all over my face. “Told you. It’s a boy.” He brought out his tongue in order to taunt me and I did the same. Still not wanting to lose the battle.“Gosh, I’m in love with you already.” He said rubbing my belly. “What about mummy?” I pouted like a baby. He gave out a laughter that sent shivers down my spine.“Mummy knows, I’m crazy about her.” I blushed and he pecked my forehead.“Okay lovebirds, it’s time to cut the cake.” We walked towards the cake stand. “Okay, so you are both going to cut the cake at the sound of the last letter of the baby’s name.”“What do you think his name should be?” Seth asked, looking at me affectionately “Alistar.” A smile appeared on my lips.“Our little Star.” He nudged me closer to him“What are they saying?” I could hear our guests whisper among t
167Naomi"Well, you think you are the best, but everyone knows I can beat you in ten seconds." Connor shot back and they began arguing like kids, and I rolled my eyes with a smile on my face.Everyone was happy about my baby, and my heart felt full at the sight. Everyone who loved me was here, and they all couldn't wait for my baby to be here.My beautiful son. My Alistar.Seth returned with my cup of ice cream, and sat beside me, placing my feet on his leg and softly rubbing it. I moaned softly as the ice cream melted in my mouth, completely ignoring the idiots that were still arguing about who was going to help my son kill his first person and Seth scoffed, entering the conversation. "None of you are going to be teaching my son anything because I'm not dead. I will teach him because we all know I would destroy both of you in a fight."Seth smirked and sat up smugly, while the two other fools shared a look.Then they burst into laughter. "Oh goddess! You? Beat me?" Xander cried i
168HazelSwallowing hard, I took steps towards where Xander, the man of my life argued childishly with Connor and Seth about who would teach his nephew to fight and I wanted to laugh because how would he argue when it's time to know who would teach his own child to fight.Will he be happy when I tell him? Will he be sad? One going i knew about Xander was that he had the roughest childhood ever, and he was a victim of an evil dad who just wanted to make him a tool, a machine, and never for once saw him as his son.For a long time back in the kingdom he grew up in, he hated kids, I couldn't bring that up with Aubrey and Naomi for obvious reasons, but he was now a changed person completely. But does one ever completely change? That was the main reason I have been scared to come out and tell him that I am pregnant and our baby was going to be due sooner than everyone thought because I've been using magic to conceal it from human eyes.I felt horrible, I was horrible. I don't think I'm r
169XanderAll my life, only one person ever looked me in the eyes and saw my flaws and faults. And still loved me despite everyone of them.Only one person knew the darkest parts of my soul, and still made it feel better when it hurt.Only one person forgave me after every mistake I made, only one person led me through the darkest parts of life when she was in her darkest parts too.That person was Hazel, and as I stared at our little baby bump, I couldn't pretend to be all manly and put together as a sob raked through my body.She hid the baby from me because she felt I was going to hate it, and her because of the trauma my father instilled in me.Even when it was hurting her, she put me first.Did I ever do anything to deserve this angel? I cried for the second chance the mood goddess gave me to make things right, I cried for the gifts she has already given me.A sob from Hazel had me choking on mine, and I wrapped my hands around her, burying my face in the crook of her neck as we
XanderImmediately those words left her beautiful mouth, i bunched up her dress, exposing her clean body, her pussy was already wet and I smirked as the wetness even soiled her panties.I slid a finger through her panties and pulled it off as slowly as I could, my eyes never leaving hers as she watched me in fascination, swallowing softly as I slid it past her feet and onto the grass beside us.She moaned as I hung her legs over my shoulders, not once breaking eye contact.She shook slightly and her once tearing eyes now stared at me, lust filled and I swallowed a groan. “You are so beautiful.” I whispered as I slid down her body, so that my lips were directly over her lips, if you know what I’m saying.I blew air into her slit and she whimpered. “Xander please.”I slid my finger lazily down her wet soft core and she shivered in and grabbed me tight as I slid my finger into her waiting pussy, a groan leaving my lips as she moaned, her walls clenching deliciously around my finger.“You
Xander and HazelXanderHazel and I have been together for a year as husband and wife. As the gamma of the kingdom, I have been assigned with many roles Seth trusted me with. Especially secruritunand assassination of criminals.Hazel, apart from being a mother, was also the pack witch.Our lives changed for the better after we became a family, and when our baby girl came, it became the best.We were in love with our family, and although things were hard, we still found time for each other.But recently things changed.Hazel and I began fighting more than ysual, and the sexual spark we had became nonexistent. It bothered me that our home wasn’t as nice as it used to be, but I had no idea how to fish it, or even how to start.We hardly saw each other anymore, and slowly I figured it wasn’t because of our duties.Hazel was avoiding me.Could I have done something? I’ve been nothing but loyal and devoted and seeing our love die a slow death caused my heart to ache in pain.I had to fix it
SethThe dinner party my parents hosted for my mother’s birthday was the first party Naomi and I were attending since Star was born and it felt good to be in the midsts of people who didn’t demand something from you every tens seconds, and the availability of plenty alcohol and snacks.Things we never allowed near the house because Alistar.I loved my baby boy. He was sharp and smart, and very stubborn too, just like every male he was related to. But he always took Naomi away from me.I wanted time with her and we almost never had time. But tonight, while he was with the baby sitters at the party, I planned to sneak Naomi back to the house and lock the doors.As if on cue, Naomi descended the stairs with a soft smile on her lips, and my eyes raked down her beautiful body which became even beautiful as she grew older.Her brown hair was packed on top her head in a messy yet classy bun, and she wore a beautiful mermaid cut dress, clinging onto her delicious curves. It was early in the n
ConnorThe last events ever since that night have proven one thing right, we needed a well deserved vacation.Aubrey finished her training as a warrior, and it was so damn sexy to know my mate was sexy, smart, beautiful and didn’t need me to kick some ass. It made me thirsty for her, like every other day.And she matched my vibe perfectly. She needed me too.We both deserved a vacation away from everyone. The kids didn’t make it easy and as their uncle and aunt, we suffered too much it made me wonder what their parents thought. They could be bundles of joy, but I need a weekend without hearing babies roar with tears every ten seconds.So we planned to go to a beach resort in the human world. Aubrey has never left the werewolf world, so I had to show her a lot of sights especially in this place called Hawaii.As we slid our backs down the floor as we arrived at our hotel, she let out a gleeful look. “Humans are really just us, but less attractive it’s so cute!”I laughed, “How’s that
AubreyMy heart raced with happiness as I tried to push the Naomi issue aside and focus on my mate, my man, my beta and the live of my life, Connor.He smirked at me as he pushed open his door, then didn’t even wait before closing the door to claim my mouth with his. My heart sparked with life as my wolf happily jumped around as we deepened the kiss, and his hands began to work on the straps of my dress.He pushed closed the door, and his attention was solely on me. “Make me the happiest man and fuck me.” He whispered causing my thighs to clench together in a desperate need for the sexy man that stood before me.He undid the straps and the dress came pooling down at my feet. My underwear wasn’t anything special, my chest was bare, and the underwear was lacy and thin, it being just a g- string. The dress warranted that I wear such an underwear, and I happily accepted my decision as Connor’s eyes swept over my body hungrily, his tongue farting to wetter his lips as his eyes fell to my
ConnorAs I made eye contact with Aubrey from across them hall and my wolf growled mate in a very animalistic manner, I wondered how I was so dense to have not noted the signs. The scent. The string delicious scent that made my mouth water every time it wafted in my nose.The smell of her arousal.Why I couldn’t stop thinking about her every second of the passing day..My wolf wanting to be around her every single dayShe was my mate, my other half, and I would have laughed in happiness if we didn’t have a crisis that would warrant us locking up her best friend.She was devastated as she cried for my to help her, but hearing that someone wanted to kill the king and having practiced proof to back it up was a tough thing to just push aside. I didn’t believe they claims against Naomi. Naomi would never do anything to hurt Seth, and it puked all be clear in the morning.And the party ended when Naomi was being taken away, Aubrey moved to follow her but I stopped her, pulling her into a
AubreyThe day has come, and i have never felt more depressed in my whole life. Naomi was practically brimming with life as we began getting ready for the ball, and all I could think about as I faked my happiness was who would I end up with and who would Connor end up with?As the chaos of the working maids and chatter filled the room where we got ready for the ball, I couldn't shake off the feeling of impending dread.Today would make it official. Once Connor finds his mate, he wouldn’t want to have anything to do with me again.I wanted him so bad it hurts. I wanted to get up from this chair where I sat while the make up artists poked and prodded my face, and I wanted to scream and run towards him and take all I said back, But I couldn't.Another sigh left my lips. I knew I had to put on a brave face, no matter how much it tore me apart inside. At the hall, when he finally finds his mate, I know I would have to pretend as if I was happy for him.Then I would leave the pack immediat
Aubrey“I love you.”I ran into my room, and landed onto the bed, bursting int tears as I fisted my bed tight.Connor loves me?He was so ready to sacrifice everything for me, and what did I say? But I knew if I had accepted, it would be mediocre. What if he finds his mate, more pretty and more fit to be a beta female? From a good family and his mother could approve of her.In every way different from me. And then the mate pull. I heard it was automatic, it was almost too hard to resist when you see the person and then you decide you’ve never felt anything like that.What if he finds his mate then sees he didn’t want me after all? What if he sees it wasn’t love he had for me, and that he loves her?I wouldn’t live with myselfAnd also, his mother.That witch made it clear what she was going to do to my family if I went against her.If I went against her and she does something to my family, the guilt would bury me alive.There were so many reasons why I couldn’t just jump into his ar
ConnorRushing back to the pack was a granted. Also was muting my phone to stop my mother from disturbing me with calls for the antidote I was not going to give her anytime soon.My driver aimed directly for Aubrey’s house.She didn’t men’s w hat she wrote in that letter, did she ?She couldn’t have. I felt it. It was different.It was supposed to happen. I couldn’t even imagine letting her go. I was a new man, she made me a new man and I couldn’t imagine my life without her now that she was in it.I hated this girl. Because of something my mother did.My mother has been the devil since forever but now she knows I’m never to be messed with.My feet carried me as fast as it could immediately the car stopped and I headed to the house one dark haired girl had described to me as the house where Aubrey and her family stayed. The minute I can, I would take them under my protection and give them the retirement they deserved.I ran my hand through my hair. I was getting ahead of myself. Could
