VERENAWe receive a lot of gifts and blessings from the pack members before we head to the packhouse. Inside the packhouse, I am given a warm welcome by the staff. I don’t see many familiar faces like Maya who used to be a bitch to me. Maybe Elijah kicked her out or something. Ezra scans the vast living room space, his jaw dropped in awe from taking in the opulence. He runs towards the floor-to-ceiling windows that offer a panoramic view of the forest, the glass reflecting the room’s cool, metallic sheen. The walls are a smooth, matte black, a perfect backdrop of the art pieces that hang like scattered constellations. Art pieces that I bought when I spent my time here. He hasn’t thrown them away. My eyes fall on the sitting area, a sleek, L-shaped sofa dominating the space, its cushions upholstered in a deep, charcoal gray leather. The familiar low, glass coffee table holds a single, sculptural flower arrangement. The same table where I signed the divorce papers. A wave of mixed e
VERENA“Lie on the bed,” Elijah commands, his deep voice accompanied by his hot breath that falls on my neck, making me tremble. My nipples pierce through the skimpy rhinestone bra, the belly chain leaving a cold touch on my skin. My core aches for the slighted touch or friction. I don’t fight back as I like submitting to him and am dying to feel everything he has to offer tonight. Elijah’s tongue runs down the nape of my neck even before I can move. His teeth grazes my skin, sucking on it roughly. I arch my head back as a moan escapes me. He pulls away and I turn around, but instead of walking I decide to get on all fours and begin to crawl towards the bed. I hear his groan, feel his gaze on my perky ass that’s swaying with each movement. I bite my lower lip in excitement, knowing that despite how dominant he is, I am the one who truly holds power over him. Heat courses through my body as I sit on the bed. “Good girl. Now lie on your stomach,” He speaks. I obey his words and lie
VERENAI gulp the lump in my throat as he stands before the bed. He turns on the switch and a light humming sound generates from the bullet. Elijah’s gaze falls on me. “Spread them,” He whispers and my thighs tremble as I part my legs again. I moan as he rubs the bullet on my clit before he inserts it inside me. The little thing causes strong vibrations between my core walls, making my body shake with pleasure. He takes off his shirt and his leather pants, freeing his bulge. His manhood springs to life and the veins on its length causes a strong desire within me. I lick my lips as I slide to the edge of the bed. My hand barely wraps around his thick member. Once I get a good grip on it, I begin to move my hand up and down. Elijah takes a sharp breath as I increase the motion. Pre cum drips out of his tip and slides down his cock. The sight is enough to drive me wild. I draw my lips closer to his tip and suck on it. He closes his eyes and groans from the pleasure of my tongue on
VERENA“Hold on,” He says and hoists me up while his member is buried inside me. I gasp and then giggle at the sudden shift in air. He sits on the bed and I am facing him. He takes my right nipples in his mouth and bites it hard. “Ah!” I yell in pain while his member is straight inside me. I can feel its presence throughout my entire body, my skin, every cell. I can feel him. It's the best feeling in the world and I’ll never get enough of it. “Ride me,” Elijah whispers, his voice low yet powerfully demanding. My body starts to move on its own, way before my mind can process what he said. It's as if he has some control over me. Why won’t he? This sexy man is like a God who gives me what I truly desire. I bounce up and down on his cock at a rapid pace. “Faster,” he growls and grabs me by my hips, slamming himself into me. I scream, blinded by pain and pleasure. I place my hands on his shoulders and bite his arm. He groans in pleasure, the bite leaving a small mark on his arm. The w
ELIJAHI hear Rena’s rhythmic breathing as she sleeps beside me, her sexy body covered under the sheets. Her naked back is turned towards me and I run my hand through her smooth surface, enjoying its warmth. We are in our house, back in the same bed where we used to sleep so many years ago. Back then, I never wanted to accept that I craved her presence beside me when we slept. Sometimes, it feels like a dream. I wonder if I deserve this beautiful woman who’s sleeping right beside me. So pure and full of love. I run my hand through her soft hair, and place a kiss on her shoulder. There isn’t a thing I won’t do for her. That’s how much she means to me. All the wait, all that planning and facing Rowan, it was all worth it. Because it was for her. The scent of her sweet lavender shampoo fills my senses as I bring her hair close to my lips and kiss it. After fucking her until both our bodies couldn’t handle it, my eyelids feel heavy and my body is screaming for some sleep. But I don’t
ELIJAHThen it stops. I open my eyes again, surprised by the sudden silence. The ceiling fan and the shadows of the rustling trees outside the window greets me. I whip my head towards my right and am relieved to see Rena sleeping beside me. I slide closer to her, sweat beads clutching onto my skin. My heart is thundering in my chest. It was just a dream. “Rolf?” I call my wolf out. I sense his movement inside me, telling me he’s there and sleeping. I carefully wrap my arm around Rena’s waist, fearing that I’ll feel that electric sensation again. As if touching her gets me electrocuted. Nothing happens so I release a breath of relief and burrow my head in her neck, inhaling her scent. It calms me down. It was just a dream. But why did it feel so real? I usually don’t get nightmares like these. Not since that one time when I was a kid. This is ridiculous. It's just a fucking dream. I need to rest. “Elijah?” I hear Rena’s voice and it snaps me out of my thoughts. I lift my gaze an
ELIJAHI have told her how we won without having to kill the Alpha king, but I kept the details for later because I didn’t want to ruin the moment with her. She was so happy to finally meet me again and so was I. So I decided to talk about these matters later as first I needed to be with her more than anything else. Now that we have settled in my pack, I can discuss this matter with her. “I assume he had worked with Nixie.” I say and Rena’s back stiffens. “Cyrus and Nixie? But why?” “Don’t know yet. Rowan has put him into the cells and he’ll be interrogated on it. I’m sure Rowan won’t leave any stones unturned when it comes to getting to the truth. But from what I saw, I believe Cyrus had orchestrated the entire thing to gain control. He wanted to be the King, or wanted to take down Rowan.” Rena turns around and faces me. My eyes dip to her breasts, the shower water running down those peaks. “Cyrus is the General. Was.” She corrects herself, “Even if Rowan got down the throne, woul
ELIJAHI close my eyes and when I open them, I see her worried expression. “I’m fine. Just…thinking whether to let those pricks join the meeting or not. We have done well without them.” I reply quickly and hold Rena’s hand. This time I don’t feel the sensation like before and feel relieved. She purses her lips, her gaze swirling with contemplation. “We did. Maybe we can pick the packs who are really strong or have good connections with other packs. If they don’t want to join, then that’s up to them.” She responds and I nod. “Good,” My eyes drop to her body. She’s still sore. We dry ourselves, walk out of the bathroom and I look at the seating area armchair before I look at her. “Sit on the chair?” She frowns. “Why?” I smirk. “You’ll see.” She stares at me in confusion but then settles on the couch. Her ripe breasts make my cock ache with desire but I push it behind. It's not the time for that. I put on my pants and stand behind the chair. I grab the body cream she usually uses af
VERENAI shift back and just stare at her in silence, watching her fumble with her words. Her lips are quivering and she’s sweating profusely, her midnight blue hair sticking to her forehead. She literally copied my hair color and my hairstyle. When she realizes the coldness in my gaze, she stops and starts yelling.”You can’t kill me! Dad will end you. I did what I did and I will do it again with you!” her eyes go round as she looks up at me with a psychotic look. She starts laughing and I know that there’s no humor or happiness to the laugh. “You deserve it all! You are fucking bitch who was born in a wealthy family and was accepted. You have no idea what it feels like to be unwanted. So…so I did all of this. You needed to feel what I felt too. And I succeeded!” she throws her head back and laughs even harder. “I succeeded in ruining your life! After this battle, you’ll have nothing left for you. Everything will be taken from you. Your Elijah, your kids, your pack…everything! So go
VERENAA warm sensation takes over my body and I feel a tingling sensation in my spine. The celestial light builds within me and I aim it at the Ashwalker wolves. They take a step back as if they can sense that power within me. Serena opens her mouth and light erupts from it. It's directed at them and the moment it hits the ground, a huge explosion takes place. I hear lots of howls and the light blinds everyone in the field. When it fades, a huge crater is formed on the ground and there’s no sign of the Ashwalker wolves and the cloaked men who stood with them. The impact was so huge that it got everyone’s attention. Nixie stares at it with wide eyes. “What the fuck,” she says as she measures the depth of the crater I created. “Damn! That’s so badass!” Dory exclaims and I smirk. We approach Joshua and Irene who also are staring at the huge crater. They turn towards us and Dory steps forward, shifts back and kneels down. Joshua looks at me and I see concern in his eyes. “Rena…Irene
VERENAI run towards the main battlefield and Nixie’s petite figure comes into sight. She’s standing against my men, guarded by the Ashwalker wolves and a few of Umbra’s cult men. I watch in horror as Nixie, her eyes filled with a malicious glint, hurls a gas bomb towards Irene and Joshua. The bomb explodes, sending a toxic cloud billowing into the air. Irene and Joshua cough, their faces contorted in pain. Joshua, with his enhanced senses, manages to shield himself from the gas, but Irene, still recovering from her previous injuries, is more vulnerable. I can see her coughing violently, blood staining her lips.“Irene,” Joshua goes to her and holds her while she drops to the ground, the coughing not stopping.Nixie grins as she looks at them. “You used to call me Dumpster Barbie, right? Now what, huh? Can’t speak?” she taunts and then pauses. “Oh wait! I totally forgot to say this. This gas has a special role, you know? It can take away the vocals of the person it affects. Permanen
VERENAI grit my teeth and clench my fist in anger after I shift back. Dad shifts back to his human form too and glares at me, standing protectively before mom. “Dad? Are you seriously going to protect her? You know who she's working for,” I ask him, my eyes pleading for him to see the truth in this situation. She’s not our ally. His face contorts in anger as he hears my words and he growls at me. “I trust her. There must have been some misunderstanding.” His eyes flash and I realize that he’s not in himself. It's the mate bond that’s making him say this. My dad isn’t as strong as I am when it comes to staying away from our mates. His love for mom will destroy him. “Oh yes it is, Ray. He’s making me do these things,” Mom says and makes this sad face. I wonder who’s better at acting innocent—Nixie or her? Oh wait, I forgot that the apple doesn't fall far from the tree. She proves she’s her mother. I look at Charlotte and mind-link her. “You are being a total bitch! You used my fat
VERENABut my words fall on deaf ears. He lunges at me, his claws outstretched. I dodge his attack, barely escaping his grasp. I'm filled with a mix of fear and anger. How can he hurt me? How can he turn against me after all this?I draw upon my celestial power, a surge of light coursing through my veins. My eyes glow a brilliant white, and my form shifts, becoming more powerful. I face him, my stance defiant."Elijah, stop!" I shout, my voice filled with authority. But he won't listen. He's lost in the darkness, a creature of pure instinct.We circle each other, our eyes locked in a battle of wills. The air crackles with tension as we prepare to strike. The battle between the Luna Guardian and the Shadow Alpha has begun. A battle that has occurred through different generations and timelines. I don’t want this. But do I have a choice? And what will we do if we both die? I look into his eyes, and see no sign of him. Is he gone? Did Umbra take him from me? I steel myself for what I
VERENAMaria walks towards me. “What happened?” She asks with a frown on her face. “It's mom. She’s here.” I say and Maria’s eyes turn wide. “Charlotte is here? Oh my Goddess!” She rests her hand on her chest and looks worried. I can sense the conflict arising within her. Mom was Maria’s best friend. I’m sure she still cares about her. I look at Irene. “We need to go out there. I’m sure the others will need us.” Irene steps forward. “Of course. I’d be so glad to go out there and kick some—” she halts and looks at the kids. Ezra gives her a sly smile. “Aunt Irene is saying some adult words again.” He makes a tsk sound with his mouth and shakes his head as if disappointed. He does this whenever Irene has a slip of tongue. “Shut up. I didn’t say anything. I only said that I will kick them.” She argues and I roll my eyes. She’s seriously fighting with a kid. “Rena, someone should stay with the kids to protect them,” Maria tells me as she holds my arm. She looks at Elijah who growls
VERENA"You're back," I whisper, my voice barely audible. "You're really back."Ezra smiles, his eyes filled with warmth. "I'm here, Mommy," he says. "I'm not going anywhere."In that moment, all the pain, the fear, the uncertainty - it all seems to fade away. We've won. We've defeated the darkness.Irene quickly turns around and her eyes go wide as she sees us. “Oh Goddess! It worked! Fu—Sorry. I mean hell yeah!” she shouts, raising her fists in the air. She looks no less than a lunatic but that’s how she is.I turn to Venus who just stares at her with her big green eyes, her little hand clutching Ezra’s shirt as she sits on his lap. I kneel on the floor and take her other hand, then kiss it. “Thank you, thank you. You’re our savior.” I whisper to her and cup her little face. She makes a sound with her mouth, having no idea what I’m talking about. I look at Elijah. His head is tilted up towards the ceiling, pushing back his tears of joy and relief. He’s trying to act strong but I k
VERENAI feel a strong vibration at the pit of my stomach. It makes my guts muscles clench uncomfortably but then a warm sensation travels up my spine. Venus stops crying and I open my eyes to see a vibrant light form in the middle of the air. It casts its bright light on the room and reduces Ezra’s dark aura, allowing him to take a breath and relax a little. Venus looks calm too and is staring at her brother with her big eyes. I look at Elijah and he nods. Ezra lifts his head and his face looks better, a lot less pale as he stares at us. But he’s still in his dark aura. Maybe the energy that we created helped to slow down the process. He looks at Venus but does not say anything. I move towards the bed and Venus raises her arm like she did in the kids room when she saw me. She smiles at her brother, her green eyes lighting up. “Veenie…” Ezra whispers. I carefully place Venus on the bed and hold her back. In case Ezra does something, I’ll pull her back. Elijah stands beside me and
VERENAVenus squirms as she sees him and it hurts him but he does not show it on his face. “Are they still out there?” Maria asks me and I shake my head. “No. But we need to be careful. Elijah and I’ll handle everything. Let's go.” I tell them and we carefully walk out of the kids room. Elijah walks ahead, his senses alert for any incoming dangers. I look around too but Venus gets uncomfortable when I’m too tense so I’m trying to stay calm. I look at her and recall the vision I had. I couldn’t see her face but I felt the same way I am feeling right now. The feeling that you have when you are close to your daughter. Venus looks up at me with her big eyes and I give her a smile. “Don’t worry, angel. We’ll be fine,” I give her a kiss on the forehead and she giggles. We reach the bedroom and Elijah opens the door. The moment the double doors swing open, a strong wave of dark aura crashes on me, forcing me to take a step back. Venus squirms again and looks away, as if she’s afraid.
