“Can I know a little about you? I don't mind being your friend,” Aron inquired as he stared at the waterfall. It was a sculpture of a wolf with water dripping down its mouth. “Of course, my king, I used to live in Owl Coven village before I came to the palace,” Selene confessed, ignoring the part where she was abused and made jest of. “Then how did you become a breeder in the palace since you are living in Owl Coven? If you don't want to answer, then don't,” Aron said as he turned to look at the woman. “I came to the party like everyone else a month ago. The king found me and made me his breeder." She wasn't ready to disclose too much information because she would just be embarrassing herself. Aron knew the story was not complete, but he wasn't going to pressure her now because he could see her reluctance. “Okay then” “How are you related to the king, Milord? You look a lot like the king,” Selene pointed out and rubbed her neck because of the cold. “Well, I'm one of the distant
Isabella sent out her invitation to some of the nobles' families in the kingdom and some other people she knew. She already has a beautiful dress since the party will be held in the next two days. Lily came into the room and gave Isabella what was in her hand. “Are you sure no one sees you?” Isabella asked; he needed to be cautious. "Yes, milady,” she replied. Isabella smiled as she looked at what Lily gave her. A malicious smile graced her lips.*** Andrew didn't know what to expect as he walked inside the king's chambers for the first time. He has always submitted his report through the use of paper, scribbling down the words and giving them to Harold, who was the closest to the king, being his beta. “Your Highness,” he said, bowing his head. Rayne was busy reading a parchment among all the others lying on the table. “Speak up,” Rayne beckoned to Andrew. “The lady didn't come out of her room for some days, but she came outside twice,” Andrew explained as he stared at the king
“You are allowed to take in any woman and do all sorts of things together. Why am I not allowed to do the same? What makes you the exception and not me?” Selene yelled as she clenched her fist in anger. She wasn't ready to call him by his title, and she dared not call him by his name either. Rayne stopped abruptly when she heard her say that. Could it be that she was right? But he wasn't ready to admit it. “You choose to be weak, so why would you blame me for not taking you in as my mate? You couldn't even shapeshift, and most people in the packs thought I brought in a human as a breeder when you are a werewolf, but you chose to hide in your shell,” Rayne complained as he took a step closer towards Selene. Selene's expression was filled with pain because of how the weight of his words sink into her brain. But she wasn't ready to cry for this heartless king. He will not hesitate to poke at her weakness. “Then why are you here when you know I'm weak and doesn't fit to stand bes
“Another woman was murdered yesterday night,” Harold confessed before raising his head to meet the king's eyes. “The body?” Rayne inquired, wanting to know where the corpse was. “It’s in the morgue, your highness. I moved the corpse there this morning.” Harold confirmed. “Then we have to speed up, and it seems I won't be staying long to celebrate the Queen's birthday.” Rayne said, pausing, “What about them? Have they improved?” Rayne asked, his demeanor changing because he knew the ministers would soon come to the palace to demand what he had been doing to curb the killing of the people.“They are ready. I just told them to wait for you." “Pick the best ten out of them and let them meet me outside the gate at night,” Rayne said sternly as he began to walk towards the field. “It is done, Your Highness,” Harold replied, walking by the king's side.The men fought in front of the king and Harold, and Rayne could see they were improving. The best thing now is to check the corpse to se
The hall was decorated with a beautiful intricate design made on the wall; the air was filled with a rose scent; and the chandeliers remained fixed on the wooden ceiling, casting their orange glow on the hall. However, Rayne could smell a unique smell. Though the hall was filled with a rose smell, he recognized this particular smell, which stood out among all the other scents. Rayne turned his head to look at the intruder; of course, he recognized her. Selene descended the stairs in her long, flowery green dress that hung low on her shoulder. The dress clung to her tiny waist with a silver ribbon at the end. Her wavy, long brown hair bounces down the stairs as she descends. Her doe-like black eyes scan the crowd before walking towards a seat. Rayne's mouth waters as he stares at his wild vixen. He followed her line of direction, and he wasn't surprised when he saw Aron waving at her, smiling. His body boiled, and he clenched his fist in anger. Almost all the men were ogling at he
The music began to play as everyone paired themselves up in two, walking to the stage to dance. Now that Selene was here, she could feel the same energy she felt back then, the first time she was in the palace. But now her parents weren't here, nor were her sisters. She could see Isabella sitting at the high table with the king beside her. Though he was far from her, Selene could see him staring at her among the crowd. Aron turned to face Selene. He had made it clear to Rayne that he loved the human and wouldn't stop chasing her even if he sent him away from the palace. Aron's eyes twitched when he saw her in that beautiful dress, which clung to her body like flesh. He couldn't hold himself as he bowed his head, facing her, with his hand stretched out. “May I have this dance, milady?” Aron asked. Selene placed her hands on Aron's hand. Aron placed his hands on Selene's waist and pulled her closer to him. However, she couldn't feel the spark, and it seemed as if her body o
“Lady Selene…” Aron called again, but Selene's face was clouded with desires. “Rayne, please, please. Take the pain way." She moaned as she tried to move closer to him. Aron could see now that there was something wrong with Selene. Selene tried to pull her legs closer, and when the dress settled at her core, she clapped her thighs together. “Ahh” She moaned in pleasure and continued the process once more. “Mmm” And that was when Aron lost it all. He could smell her arousal, and now she knew what was wrong. With one swift moment, he cradles her into his arms, walking towards her room. All the while she was carrying her, she didn't stop mumbling, and Aron could hear them all. “Rayne, please. Take the pain away. I'm...” Selene stuttered.“I'm hot..." she mumbled; her hands clutched to his shirt. “If I survive this...” Aron curses and the rest of his words are swallowed when he pushes the door, dropping her on the bed. Aron, after putting Selene on the bed, tried to make his wa
“You will pay for this too. I will break you into pieces for getting aroused and trying to make love to my cousin in the room I gave you,” Rayne explained. He wouldn't have come here if he hadn't noticed Aron following Selene out of the hall. “You are wet for a man you met a few days ago. Then watch me ravish your body until you beg me to stop,” Rayne taunts her, walking towards her. Selene couldn't utter anything; at least she was coming back to earth, and the burn was not that severe. But it dawned on her that the man she kissed wasn't Rayne, but his brother. “My king," she breathed the word out, her mind still fuzzy. Rayne walked briskly towards the door in his long strides before stopping at the door. “You should prepare yourself, Selene." He said, walking out of the room, his voice etched with anger. “She must not leave this room.” Rayne gave his order to the two guards standing outside the door. “Yes, Your Highness.” Selene undressed herself as soon as the door was shut.
Selene sat down in her room, pacing around. She stares at her reflection in the room. She was in pain because of what Rayne said today, and she wished in her mind that it wasn't true. “I hate you,” she muttered under her breath. Her eyes are becoming teary, but she is not going to cry, not now. “Not again, Selene." "It's time for you to wake up from your fantasy dream," she said, but she wasn't sure if she would have confidence in doing that. To wake up from her deep slumber. “I will make him want me,” she said aloud to herself as she stared at her reflection in the mirror. She had always received praise from her mother and father in the past, and she knew she was a beautiful woman many men couldn’t refuse. If not for her weak state, she might not be here right now. ___ “Papa, what if the mate bond wasn't involved? Would you still love Mother? Selene asked her father under the tree in front of their house. At this time, she was around eighteen years old. “I already loved your mo
In the land of Blue Stone, the snowflakes descend from above. The air is quiet, and a peaceful calm covers the land. Each snowflake pirouettes gracefully before settling on the ground, transforming the world into a pristine white canvas. The trees, adorned with a glistening layer of snow, stand in quiet reverence. The muffled sound of footsteps and the occasional laughter of children playing in the snow create a harmonious melody, punctuating the tranquil winter scene. People selling in the market, hurry to find shelter, fearing that the heavy snow might damage their goods. Amidst the chaos in the market, deep in the forest, a silhouette was seen moving briskly among the trees. The tall trees couldn't shield him from the heavy snowflakes; his hands trembled, and the cloak he wore couldn't protect him from the harsh weather. He continued to walk in the woods and felt relief when he noticed the tower ahead. However, he still needed to walk more before reaching his destination. He glance
The rain stopped, and the raindrops made the ground shiny. The soil became wet and fertile under the soft light of the moon. The trees in the forest, which had survived the storm, swayed gracefully in the gentle breeze, dancing together. After the rainclouds went away, the thick forest, once covered in darkness from the rain, was now dark again. The black colors blended with the shapes of the tall trees. In this dark scene, a quiet feeling filled the forest, interrupted only by the spooky sound of an owl hooting, like a musician playing a song in the silent night. Rayne, unfazed by the profound darkness that enveloped the night, continued his journey, and as he trod along, his once obscure, dark eyes began to emit an uncanny golden glow. His every sense was heightened as he tried smelling that sweet scent of his fated mate Selene. He pondered whether the unexpected message he got from Drake was a result of Selene's safety. He needed to protect her by his side but the woman was jus
Rayne jumped into the room through the window. There were traces of blood on the floor and some were also splattered on the wall. He couldn't believe his guess was right. Rayne found out about the red moon because of the report he got from Harold through the letter. He realized there was someone in Bluestone Kingdom who probably came back to this remote village for an ulterior motive. He already found out Margaret was one of them and he already sent word to the Duke of the village. Though Rayne didn't mention Margaret, he specifies that there is going to be a ritual under the red moon and Selene is the sacrifice. "She was murdered," someone said behind Rayne. It was Logan. He looked at Rayne strangely because he hadn't seen him before but he realized he was stronger and more powerful. He walked inside and touched the blood on the floor. He already found the girl murdered here at the back of the shabby house. Logan sat on the sofa opposite Rayne with a table separating them
His other hand went to her nipple and he used his hand to play with it. His wolf was restless; he wanted to mark their mate but Marcus knew he had to be gentle with Eve. Eve loosened up as she began to whisper some incoherent words. Her moans were the only thing that echoed in the walls of the room. She could feel something building up inside her to settle in between her legs. This feeling was known to her but there was nothing she could do to quench the burning fire. Logan stopped sucking her breast and he knew air towards it. Eve moans as her nipples become erect. She ground her hips onto Marcus' lap, trying to get some friction but she was far from being satisfied. Marcus changed their position and this time, Eve's back was pressed into the bed. In an instant, Marcus shredded the dresses apart and tossed them to the floor, which made Eve scared for a second. He leaned forward and moved into her neck and kissed it, at the same spot where the mating mark is done, he sucked on i
The pack members were already sitting in their various seats. Azalea and Selene didn't talk much after what happened back in the room. Eve and Marcus wore a matching dress as they stood under the altar while Sir Logan, the Duke of Starlight Fall Village, performed the mating ritual. Logan needed to hurry because there would be a red moon soon. "Now it's time for the mate vows!" Logan's voice resounded in the hall as he imprinted a mark on their hands and held it together. “By the light of the full moon, I claim you as mine," Marcus began. “You are my mate, my partner, and my forever bond; I accept you as my own, now and forever. Together we shall run, under the glow of the full moon each season, with our hearts beating as one, our souls forever tied. I promise to love and protect you through all of life's phases as my destiny, my fate, and my mate; I seal our bond, forever and always." “In the eyes of the pack, we are one, united, and strong. By the power of the wolf, our love sh
Chapter 102 “Milady," Selene said with a beautiful smile on her lips. Margaret came with a young lady who Selene hadn't seen before. “I thought you were talking with someone, Lady Selene," Margaret said while the lady beside Margaret greeted Selene. “No. I was talking to myself," Selene said and ushered them in. The two came inside and sat on the sofa. “I heard from Logan that you will be coming alongside the men to guard the village," Margaret said and Selene nodded her head in agreement because it was true. “I wanted to go along with Logan because they might need my help," Selene said with a slight smile. She settled down on the chair. She wondered why Rayne went into hiding. She knew he would be eavesdropping on their conversation now. “Are you sure everything is okay?" Margaret asked, seeing the hickey on Selene's neck, which she failed to cover up with her dress because she was unaware. ”Yes, is something wrong?" Selene asked with confusion marred her face. “I didn't kn
Selene closed her in pure ecstasy and her lips trembled as she tried hard not to moan. Her back ached and her fingernails were dug inside the bed even after so many months.He brought out that feminine side in her and she was annoyed by it.There was a knock at the door but Rayne didn't give her way to reply who the person was. She was scared that if she parted her lips, she was going to moan. Her bedroom was not far from the parlor and the bedroom door was left open so she could hear the knock.Logan was the one standing at the door. He had come to the theatre house to see Selene act when he realized he didn't continue the play. He waited till the play came to an end and that was when he found Eve. It was Eve who told him Selene left early.Rayne moved his head away from Selene and taunted her with sarcasm.“Won't you answer him, I think it is your man," Rayne said, he emphasized the word man and Selene turned red. “Who is there" She said and tried to get free but Rayne held her in
“You got your wolf," Rayne said and pushed Selene to the wall. Her back hit the wall with a gentle thud but she was far from being done.She parted her lips and began to whisper but before she could complete the chant, Rayne caught her other hand.He couldn't believe Selene had the blood of a witch in her.“How could you?" Selene spat defiantly with disgust, trying hard not to cry. If there was anyone that loved her in the whole world, it was her mother. She wouldn't hesitate to kill Rayne herself even if it's going to take every last of her breath.“Who are you talking about?" Rayne inquired with his head tilted to the side. “There was a mosquito humming at the back of my head just now which I had to kill without even moving my fingers," Rayne replied in a playful tone which left Selene flabbergasted.“Oh and I like that fiesty look on you," Rayne said but Selene wished she could slap him across the face.“Then let me go?" Selene said but Rayne only Pinned her hand to the wall with
