It's over

Luciano turned to look at Talia who was standing at the door of the bathroom, and his eyebrows rose in approval.

That oversized tank top covered Talia’s private parts, but it was also low on the chest, giving him a glimpse of Talia’s cleavage… high on the thighs, exposing her legs, and loose around arms… Luciano swallowed hard as the image of Talia’s side-boob flashed in his mind. Yup, he remembered that.

He really wanted to suck her there. Everywhere.

Talia squirmed under Luciano’s gaze. Why did he look at her like she was naked?

Talia was about to tug the tank top and cover her legs more, but she held that urge back due to fear of how that will lower the opening at her neck and expose her girls, so she just pressed her legs together and folded her arms over her stomach in a feeble attempt to protect herself from Luciano’s x-ray vision.

“Can I help you?”, Talia asked.

Luciano tilted his head and smiled a little. “There is no need to be so cautious, wife. Do you remember me

    "You look ravishing, Luna," Beatrice said as she styled her hair into a ponytail with coils at the front."Do you think so?"Katherine asked, turning to face Beatrice. For some reason, she trusted Beatrice more than all the maids in the Mansion, but Beatrice played with her trust and thrashed it like it was a dog's truth."Luna! Which of the dresses are you going for?" Beatrice asked, bringing out a green short gown with a split that ended at Luna's thighs."Which of them do you love? The green sexy gown or the black powerful gown?" Luna questioned, pulling out another gown from her wardrobe."I don't know, Luna. I think the green sexy gown would suit you. Alpha appreciates such sexy clothes, you know?" Beatrice smiled as Luna took the gown from her hand."Really? Does that mean you've been seducing my husband with such a dress?" Luna retorted, and Beatrice opened and closed her mouth like a fish. Luna guessed she was surprised at how she found out she was sleeping with her husband, ev

    The early morning sun shone brightly on Katerina's face, and as she gasped out, her heart immediately started beating wildly as she remembered what happened last night.Only if Beta Edward agrees to do what she wants, maybe things would be sorted out smoothly.The door opened, and two maids walked in with their heads bowed."Leave, I will dress myself," she muttered, stepping down from the king-size bed.As she walked into the bathroom, she stared at herself in the mirror, realizing she had slowly become someone else.After having her bath, she went downstairs for dinner and noticed the maids gossiping around."What is it? There seems to be something I'm missing," she said, digging her fork into the fried chicken."First lady isn't back, and Mrs. Beatrice is missing," one of the maids replied to her, and she rolled her eyes.How's that supposed to be an issue? She had been maltreated for two years now, yet no one saw it as an issue, huh? Impressive."I hope that all die and perish; no

    Opening her eyes, it dawned on her. She didn't hit the ground. Looking up a bit, she met his charming face: thick jaw, deep brown eyes, sharp nose, and a bloody lip. This description suits no one else than Alpha Raymond, the Lycan king known for his deadly acts.“If you wish to end your miserable life, then it's okay, but not in my company,” he dropped her down, and she turned around.Her stupid mind didn't think through; trying to commit suicide in a company, wasn't smart at all.“You should not have stopped me,” Katherine said, and Alpha Raymond nodded.“Don't get confused, darling. I didn't stop you; I just don't want bloodstains on the wall. Drinking poison would be best,” he brought out a little bottle with a green substance.“Are you a psychopath? Who on earth carries poison daily?” She raised her eyebrows, finding the strange man a bit unbelievable.“Who knows, I might stumble upon ignorant fools like you,” he responded, and she scoffed, alongside an eye roll.“Lunatic.” She wa

    Luciano could only look at her with a compressed surprised expression on his face “So, let's get straight to business,” she said as she carefully settled on the chair whilst caressing her pregnant belly once more. He looked at her, monitoring her every movement till she settled before looking back at her face “Since your business desperately needs my help, I'm willing to partner with you” she spoke with a cold expression on her face and he cleared his throat to speak “No! I don't need to hear what you have to say, I've read all the terms and conditions including the profit distribution and I'm okay with everything” she cut in, making him swallow his words. He couldn't believe it was the same Katherine he was once married to who was sitting right in front of him. She pushed the papers close to him and he stared down at it “I have already signed the agreement so I'm good with everything. You can go through it and decide if you're comfortable with it but on second thought, you're in

    “But why do you have to go so out of the blue, you don't look too good let's go to the hospital” Katherine beckoned for the millionth time as Alpha Raymond continued packing a suitcase with some clothes“I'm fine and there's nothing I can do to avoid going, I'll just have to go”“B..but why?”“The investors I'm working with urgently called for a business meeting and I have to go. I'll be back before you know it, okay?” He kissed her forehead, closed the suitcase, and the maid in the room with them carried it down from the bed to take downstairs. Katherine folded her hands in defeat and just followed him till he got outside where the car was waiting. She knew she couldn't change his mind at this point and besides, he was going for an understandable reason but it seemed like her pregnancy hormones were messing with her ability to understand or compromise“Bye, please take care of yourself and my little prince inside you okay?” Katherine pouted and he chuckled“So cute” he lightly squeez

    Alpha Luciano kept pacing around the room. Something big was about to happen, his wolf could sense it but what it was exactly, he just couldn't place a finger on it. Over the past few months, he had been able to revive his company through the help of the returned investors and his new one, Katherine. He still couldn't understand why she chose to help him but then again, she never missed any chance to spell it out that both he and his company were under her mercy. She would take every opportunity she got to show off her protruding belly to rub it in his face but instead of feeling jealous every time she did it, he would always feel a sense of belonging. There was something about her pregnancy that just kept calling out to his wolf and at first, it was weird but over, he started assuming it was just because he and Katherine once shared a special and intimate bond As each day passed by, he would always feel restless. His wolf was always calling out to Katherine and in this desperate feat

    Kathrine’s mind was a mess after receiving the news that tomorrow she would meet Alpha Luciano, the Alpha of the notorious Dark Howlers pack, aka her future husband. She still hasn’t recuperated from the event of finding (and rejecting) her mate, yet now she needs to think about another man. And this was not just any man. Alpha Luciano has a grim reputation on the battlefield and an even worse reputation related to women. In search of solitude that would allow her to think, Kathrine went to her room. To Kathrine’s horror, Nora was two steps behind her, cooing how this was the best thing ever. Kathrine was exasperated when she saw that Nora came into her room. Why won’t Nora leave her alone? “What do you know about Alpha Luciano?”, Kathrine asked irritably. Nora whipped her phone out. “Very handsome! This one was taken two months ago when he visited the Silverburn pack. I have a friend there, so we exchange hottie-related information, and Luciano is a hottie, so… I can’t believe h

There was nothing that would require their presence for at least one week. Any work that was pending could be done via phone, email, or video chat.“What’s in three days?”, Caden asked.“Cassie is coming.”, Stephanie responded with an unhappy face.Caden stifled a laugh and Maya grimaced.“What? Why?”, Luciano asked dejectedly.Stephanie narrowed her eyes at him. “You should ask her and not me. Cassie wanted to come today, but I told her that you would be out for a few days on business, and then she changed her tune to how she would go to New York for three days and come here after that.

    Luciano was sitting in his office with a glass of whiskey in his hand and thinking about the talk he had with Caden and Maya after dinner.They discussed the upcoming festival and the issue of Katerina.The preparations for the festival were on schedule and increased security was already in effect, so they focused on discussing Katerina.They decided to work on delaying her visit.It was Maya’s plan.“Instead of telling her not to come, we will tell her WHEN to come.”Luciano didn’t like it, but he gestured to Maya to keep on talking.“Two weeks.”, Maya said. “We will tell Katerina that your schedule is packed and that you can’t entertain her now, but in two weeks she can come, and you will make it up to her.”“You think Katerina and Alpha Edward will accept this two-week delay?”, Luciano asked.“No.”, Maya said bluntly before elaborating, “This is not about getting two weeks, but about negotiating. I expect that they will ask for Katerina to come sooner. I believe that we can settle

    Seeing that Luciano was looking at her grimly from the door of her room, Talia didn’t dare to provoke him.Talia didn’t have the faintest clue what caused his current mood (or what that mood was), but she decided to play it safe, and she lowered her head.“I apologize, Alpha Luciano.”, she said in a small voice.‘BAM!’Talia jolted when the door closed loudly, and she inhaled sharply at the realization that Luciano was only half a step away from her.It took him only a second to cross the distance between them.Luciano grabbed her chin with his index finger and thumb and forced her to lift her head and look at him.“What did you call me?”He was leaning above her, and his angry words splashed on her face. Talia blinked rapidly, unsure what he was getting at.Seeing the horror in her eyes, Luciano let go of her chin and put his palm on her cheek.“I told you to call me by my name. Luciano. Just Luciano. Say it.”His tone was much gentler, but his gaze was unwavering.“Luciano”, Talia s

    Between sparring sessions, Luciano was contacting Maya through the mind-link, reminding her to take Talia shopping, but Maya told him that Talia was sleeping and that she shouldn’t be disturbed.‘Talia is sleeping. Considering her wounds, it’s important that she rests. We can shop tomorrow.’, Maya tried to reason with Luciano.‘No. Do it today.’, Luciano was not relenting.The truth is that he felt guilty.He knew that Talia left because of the incident in the kitchen, and he thought that if Maya takes her shopping, Talia will feel better and not try to leave again.The thought of Talia leaving was creating knots in his stomach.She nearly escaped, and next time, he might not be so lucky to find her sleeping in the forest.It was late afternoon when Luciano finished training and returned to the packhouse.His shorts was sticking to his body, and his bare chiseled chest and abs were glistening due to all the sweat and he was itching for a shower.Luciano heard Maya’s voice coming from

    “Oh, before I forget…”, Maya stirred the conversation the other way. “Don’t tell anyone that you are from the Red Moon pack. The official story is that you grew up with your grandparents somewhere North and that after they passed, you came here with the goal to find a pack and we bumped into each other accidentally. Do you remember the gas station where Alpha Luciano went out to purchase snacks on his own? It’s the stop where you switched places with Caden.”Talia nodded.“That’s where we met. Feel free to fill in any gaps about your background.”, Maya said and observed Talia who was listening intently with a hint of confusion on her face. “Do you know why this is important?”Talia shook her head, indicating that she doesn’t.“If Alpha Edward suspects that we took you secretly, he might accuse us of kidnapping or stealing.”Talia’s eyes widened. “I agreed to come with you.”“You did, but Alpha Edward is not on friendly terms with Alpha Luciano, and he might use this incident to stir t

    “AWOOOOO!”A sky-piercing howl shook all the windows in the packhouse of the Dark Howlers pack, threatening to shatter them. The powerful sound echoed far into the distance, stirring every pack member with the might their Alpha possesses.“Will Luciano be OK?”, Maya asked Caden while blinking at the dawn which cracked through the windows.They heard four rapid thumps when Luciano landed in the garden after jumping from his balcony on the third floor.“He will be fine.”, Caden assured Maya and pulled her closer to him. “The border patrol just notified Luciano that they found Talia.”Maya wanted to ask for more information, but Caden was snoring softly already, so she gave up.Normally, warriors and patrols can’t contact Luciano through the mind-link. That is reserved for Caden, Maya, and Stephanie, and even those three know not to disturb him unless it’s important.Warriors, scouts, and other pack members follow the chain of command which allows only a handful of people to contact Cade

    In the kitchen…Luciano pried his arm free from Cassie’s hold and her eyes widened in surprise.Why did he back away? Why was he frowning? Things were going well, damn it!She composed herself and called sweetly, “Alpha Luciano, do you think I was out of line?”“Cassie, you accused a teenage girl of being a thief. Do you really think that my pack members have a need to come here and steal food?”Cassie pressed her lips into a line, feeling wronged. “But she was in the dark which is proof that she was up to no good. How could she see anything with the lights off?”Luciano took a moment to process what Cassie said, and he realized that Cassie was right: Talia was in the dark.The light in the kitchen was off and so was the one in the hallway. The visibility was close to nil.Werewolves have enhanced senses, proportional to the strength of their wolf.Cassie is a weak werewolf and the boost her wolf provides her is negligible when compared to other werewolves.However, Talia was able to

    Seeing that Talia was not responding and that Luciano didn’t react, Cassie was emboldened.“Answer me!”, Cassie hissed at Talia and spoke to Luciano without removing her gaze from Talia. “Is this how your Omegas are acting? You really need a Luna to teach them some manners. Sneaking in the dark and stealing food, and then they even refuse to respond…”“That’s enough, Cassie!”, Maya said sternly from the door.Maya’s heart cracked when she saw Talia’s submissive stance. It’s not that Cassie had any aura, but Talia was a broken soul who needed supportive environment.Maya walked to Talia and asked softly, “Are you OK?”Talia nodded faintly, but Maya knew that Talia was lying.Maya narrowed her eyes at Luciano and spoke through the mind-link. ‘Is this why you brought her here? I thought you promised her protection and not another type of hell.’“Come, let’s get out of here…”, Maya said to Talia while wrapping her arm around Talia’s shoulders.“We are not done here”, Cassie said stiffly,

    Talia blinked herself awake and the first thing she noticed was the darkness.It was definitely past dinner time, but Talia didn’t mind.She buried her head deeper into the pillow, indulging in the softness and warmth that came with the scent of the forest and dark chocolate.Talia paused and took a few sniffs to confirm that her nose is not playing tricks on her.Talia looked around to ascertain that she was on her own.She was confused. The room didn’t smell like Luciano before she fell asleep, but now it did.She liked his scent; it was a mix of her two favorite things: forest and a sweet treat. Talia wondered if Luciano came to check on her while she was sleeping.Talia shook that thought away. Why would a scary Alpha come to check on her?It’s more probable that Stephanie or Maya brought something that had Luciano’s scent on it. But she couldn’t see anything different.Talia decided to stop thinking about it. It doesn’t matter.She listened carefully, and there were no sounds she
