The first day in a new place always carries an air of uncertainty, a mix of fear and excitement for what lies ahead.I was acutely aware of my status as a newcomer, an omega, at the bottom of the hierarchy. I was introduced to this new pack by Killian, an omega who had been with the pack for some years. He was kind enough to guide me through the sprawling compound of the pack areas designated for the various ranks within our community.Our first stop was the place I would come to know all too well—the cleaning area."This is where we're assigned, day in, day out," Killian explained, gesturing towards the grimy surroundings.It was evident that the omegas bore the brunt of the pack's disdain, tasked with maintaining cleanliness in a place that seemed perpetually covered in filth.Am I going to clean this place every day?I couldn't hide my disappointment, the reality clashing with the dreams I harbored."I wanted to be a gamma," I confessed to Killian as we moved away from the cleanin
"Is he still pestering you?" Killian asked through gritted teeth as we passed by the gym where the gamma used to train. I looked away when Brandon, the gamma chief, catcalled me again.I wanted to give him the middle finger, but I'm trying to stop myself because I don't want to look for trouble anymore.Brandon lifted weights, and when he was done, all the gammas applauded him. He shouted, "Yeah! You see that?!" to all his colleagues and looked like a proud beast."Let's just go, Killian," I whispered and grabbed Killian's collar when I saw Brandon walking towards us."Nathalie! Clean the gym right now! I heard the royal clan is coming to check the facilities of our pack!" Lady Sabrina, the head omega, called to me. She looked stressed already, and I didn't want to add more stress to her.But wait, did she mention the royal clan?"Killian, what are considered the royal clan?" I asked Killian as we were cleaning the gym. I was lucky that Brandon was nowhere to be seen in this place.Ki
"Lycan Prince Steven seems to always go back here even if we clean the whole room. Does he want it to be sparkling clean? Ugh! Such a damn hassle!" Lady Sabrina said in frustration as the omega cleaners gathered around for a meeting. I didn't speak and let them converse. Killian was just beside me. After the incident yesterday, he kept on asking if I was alright or not.Of course, I told him that I am okay.Even though he wanted to punch the gamma chief, Brandon, he couldn't. "That fucking bastard! He should know his place! This was never been the first sexual harassment case he had ever done, and he did not learn!"It was comforting yet overwhelming.The conversation shifted suddenly, drawing me back to the present."It's alright if Lycan Steven comes here very often! I could get a glimpse of his handsome face!"The topic had turned to Lycan Steven, and the room was abuzz with excitement and admiration.Someone giggles and agrees. "Yes, you are right! I haven't seen him in ages whe
Lycan Steven followed behind me in the corridor towards the comfort room. My heart betrayed me because it kept on pumping nervously. The air was thick, and I couldn't breathe properly when I started speaking to break the silence."Here is the comfort room," I said, pointing to the brown wooden door in front of me. He stared at me intently and did not move. I heaved a deep sigh. "Take your time, Your Highness," I said the last two words with a mocking tone. I couldn't help it. Lycan Steven took a step forward and held the doorknob of the room when he grabbed my wrist and pushed me against the wall. As Lycan Steven's lips crashed against mine, I felt a surge of conflicting emotions coursing through me.Anger, fear, and a deep-seated loathing for the man who had caused me so much pain. His touch, once so familiar, now felt like a violation, a reminder of everything he had done to me in the past.You rejected me, remember?I blamed him for Hazel's death. If he hadn't entered my normal
"I'm sorry but I'm not going to the party," I told Lady Sabrina and the rest of the omegas talking about the masquerade party that Lycan Steven had invited them to.It has been three days since Lycan Steven visited our pack. They were excited to plan for the masquerade party."What? You should be there!" Lady Sabrina insisted and sighed."Wait, are you perhaps thinking about what to wear? Don't worry! We will help you get a dress!""No, I'm not really into parties. I'm so sorry, Lady Sabrina."I smiled at her. The omegas huddled around me, their expressions a mixture of disappointment and determination."But Nathalie, you can't miss this! It's the event of the year," Elara, one of the omegas, exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with excitement."Yeah, think about the beautiful dresses, the masks, the dancing!" another chimed in, trying to entice me with the glamour of the event.Lady Sabrina stepped forward, her gaze soft yet persuasive. "Nathalie, we understand parties aren't your thing, b
The grandeur of the ballroom, with its high ceilings and sparkling chandeliers, felt surreal, a contrast to the chaos brewing within me.Here I was in the middle of the party, my face absurdly smeared with the icing of a hastily grabbed cupcake.This was not how I imagined attending one of the most prestigious gatherings of our kind, yet desperation had driven me to embarrass myself!The sweetness of the icing lingered on my lips, a constant reminder of the lengths I was willing to go to avoid detection by Lycan Steven.I don't want him to think that I am here because of him. I was just forced by my co-omegas, alright!The very thought of him, with his piercing gaze and commanding presence, sent a shiver down my spine.Where is Killian, by the way?As I navigated through the throngs of elegantly dressed guests, a subtle shift in the atmosphere caught my attention. Shit. It was Lycan Steven and the unfamiliar man!They were behind me, their words muffled by the din of the ballroom but
As I walked through the grand ballroom, in golden light and echoing with laughter and chatter, I felt overwhelmed.The room was suffocating, crowded with elegantly dressed guests who seemed to be enjoying the party.I was not.I wanted to get out here.Finally, I saw my friend, Killian! He was surrounded by a small circle of admirers, his attention completely captured by the girl I had seen him talking to earlier.It was the woman that I pointed out to him when we talked.I smiled and decided not to interfere with them.Where is Lady Sabrina, or perhaps, Alpha Cosma? I should bid goodbye to them first before going out.In my haste, I collided with someone stepping unexpectedly into my path—a woman with striking blonde hair.Her expression twisted into disdain the moment we touched."I beg your pardon," I whispered, my voice barely audible over the din. But it was like throwing oil on a fire."Watch where you're going, you clumsy bitch!" she sneered, her voice dripping with venom."I'm
My expression said it all. Lovely laughed wickedly and covered her mouth. "Oh my gosh, I can't believe a lowly omega like you is mated to royalty! How is this possible?"I so wanted to claw her flawless face."Lovely, you really don't learn a lesson. Get the hell out of here. Now," Lycan Steven's voice echoed in the secluded area."Not until you confirm what I said is true," Lovely replied, her voice serious now.Lovely stepped forward and tried to touch my face. I attempted to look away, but her grip on my chin was tight. "None of you will reply to me? Alright, then. Let's experiment.""Steven!" I hissed at him, trying to mask my nervousness with a laugh. "I don't understand why you royals are so obsessed with your titles in the world of packs.""Of course, we should be proud. We are rare breeds, unlike a lowly omega like you..." Lovely interjected.I was so done with her!"Yes, you have royal blood in your veins, but your attitude is worse than that of a lowly omega!"She suddenly s
Three months later..."Babe, here's your cup of coffee..."I looked up to see my beautiful wife in her white gown. It was early in the morning, and I usually read my papers at my office desk.She never disappoints me with her skill in coffee making. It tastes so good, just like her."What's with the smile, huh?" Nathalie asked as she sat in front of me. Shaking my head, I put down the cup on the cupboard and whispered, "Nothing...""Has work been hard lately?""No, but mine has," I smirked at her reaction."Huh?!" She asked in a shocked voice. I let out a hearty laugh and spread my legs widely. "Come here..." I nodded at my thighs and she obeyed me diligently."O-Okay..." she stuttered, a blush plastered on her cheeks.The moment I felt her skin touch mine, I could already feel myself becoming aroused.Damn it.Just like that.I inhaled her hair, her scent, her body wash. It felt amazing. All of it. I could feel myself getting harder because I wanted to kiss her."Steven, why am I here
The rain came down in a relentless cascade, each drops a reminder that my father, Lycan King Xavier, had died.As I stood amidst the solemn gravestones, the pitter-patter of raindrops echoed through the cemetery, blending with the soft sobs of mourning souls.I held tightly onto the umbrella, its canopy providing a feeble shield against the downpour, while my wife stood beside me, her presence a comforting anchor amidst my grief.I love my father. He wasn't a good husband, but he was a good person to our people in Silver Pack.He has done good and bad deeds. When he committed mistakes, I knew that he was just doing that for the sake of our pack. He managed the pack with his blood, sweat, and tears.Sylvia looked at me after she has done her few words for my father. It was my turn to speak.I grab the microphone and turn to everyone in front of our pack members. With a deep sigh, I begin to speak."My father and I didn't have a good relationship at the start. I was a rebellious child,
STEVEN'S POINT OF VIEWAs the soft tendrils of sleep began to release their hold on me, I stirred in the warmth of the tangled sheets.The night had been a whirlwind of passion and intimacy, leaving Nathalie and me both sated and exhausted.With a contented sigh, I nestled closer to her, basking in the afterglow of our love.But our reverie was abruptly shattered by the insistent chime of the doorbell, echoing through the quiet of the early morning. Nathalie and I exchanged a weary glance, wondering who could be calling at such an hour.As I reluctantly rose from the bed, Nathalie followed suit, her expression mirroring my own confusion and concern.Wrapping a robe around my shoulders, I made my way to the door, my senses on high alert.Standing on the threshold was a figure cloaked in white, a healer's uniform stained with patches of crimson.My heart skipped a beat at the sight, dread clawing at my insides as I struggled to comprehend why he was there and how he knew we were there."
As I took Steven's hand in mine, leading him towards the staircase, I could feel my heart fluttering with anticipation.His warm fingers intertwined with mine, sending a surge of electricity coursing through me."Where are we going?" Steven's voice broke through my thoughts, his curiosity evident in his tone."To the bedroom," I replied, a mischievous grin tugging at the corners of my lips.Steven's eyes widened in surprise at my words, and I couldn't help but laugh softly as I covered his mouth with my hand, relishing in the playful moment.I was filled with an overwhelming sense of joy as I led him up the stairs, each step bringing us closer to the sanctuary we had created together.As we reached the top of the staircase, Steven turned to me, his eyes searching mine with a mixture of desire and affection."What do you want, baby? Hmmm?" His voice was husky, sending shivers down my spine as he brushed aside a stray strand of hair, his lips gently grazing my skin in a tender kiss."I
The air was filled with the heady aroma of roasted meats, laughter, and the joyful chatter of my fellow pack members as we celebrated the successful marking day of Steven and me.It was a night of triumph, a night of unity, as the Starlight Sentinels and Silver Pack joined together, marking a new era of strength and solidarity.Amidst the jubilation, I found myself standing beside Steven, my heart swelling with pride as Lycan King Xavier himself congratulated me for surviving the arduous ordeal of the marking."Congratulations, Nathalie. You have proven yourself to be worthy of my son. I knew that you are a gem." His words were a balm to my weary soul, reminding me of the strength and resilience I had discovered within myself."Thank you, Lycan King Xavier," I said, bowing my head a little to show respect for him.But as the festivities continued, Steven's voice cut through the revelry, drawing the attention of all present."Father, there's something I need to discuss with Nathalie,"
As I lay there, feeling the life draining from my body, I could sense a presence in the temple. The air seemed to shimmer, and I saw her— the Moon Goddess, radiant and ethereal, standing before me.Her presence was both awe-inspiring and comforting, like a warm embrace enveloping my soul. I felt drawn to her, as if she held the key to some great mystery."Nathalie," her voice echoed in my mind, gentle and soothing like a soft breeze. "It is time to leave this world behind and come with me to a place beyond heaven and earth."Her words washed over me, filling me with a sense of peace and tranquility. For a moment, I was tempted to reach out and take her hand, to follow her into the unknown.But then, a thought flashed through my mind— my pack, my loved ones waiting for me. I couldn't leave them behind, not yet.Steven...Sylvia, my mother. How about the family I always dreamed of?"I can't," I whispered, my voice barely audible even to myself. "I still have my pack, my family. They ne
As Steven became the new King of the Silver Pack, he wasted no time in initiating the ritual.Sylvia was there for me. "Are you ready, Nathalie?" she asked, a smile tugging at her lips. I smiled back at her and held her hands. "Yes, mother. I am more than ready."Her eyes gleamed with tears as she pulled me into a warm embrace. "You will survive. You're a strong woman, Nathalie. You may not be my biological daughter, but I know you can do it!"I let out a chuckle to ease the tension in the room. Lycan King Xavier looked at me and asked, "Just tell us if you want to change your mind. No one is forcing you to do this, my dear..."I nodded at him and turned to Steven, who had been watching me intently earlier. He still had his robe and cap wrapped around his body after the inauguration.He wanted to proceed immediately.I wanted it too."I'm sorry..." he whispered, looking into my eyes and pushing a strand of hair from my cheek."Why are you apologizing to me?" I chuckled at him."I'm so
My body felt so hot after Steven kissed me. It was like a fire ignited when his body touched my skin. We only stopped kissing when I couldn't breathe anymore."You alright?" he asked, gently pushing me against the bed and cupping my chin.I nodded and chuckled. "Yes, I am.""Good," he whispered and crashed his lips against mine. This time, the intensity of his kiss was more... like he was searching for something. So intense, so dark, like him."Fuck, your lips taste so sweet. I can't get enough of it," he growled against my ear and licked it. The sensation was new to me."S-Steven... w-what are you d-doing?" I asked, almost out of breath. But he didn't stop. My moans only encouraged him to continue.He was licking it as if it were his favorite dessert."Steven!" I moaned his name again and tried to find something to hold onto, to release the tension building in my stomach."Yes, baby?" he asked, his voice dark and mysterious, like the moon in the night sky."S-Stop it... it's... tickl
I felt my body collapse as if every ounce of energy had been sapped from me. Darkness enveloped my senses, swallowing me whole into its abyss.Then, like a distant echo, consciousness crept back in, sluggish and disoriented.As I gradually awoke, my surroundings slowly came into focus. My eyes adjusted to the dim light filtering through the curtains, and the familiar sight of Steven's room greeted me.Panic surged through me as I tried to piece together what had happened."What... what happened?" My voice was barely a whisper, hoarse from disuse or perhaps from the ordeal I'd just endured.My gaze swept across the room, taking in the familiar furniture, the posters adorning the walls, the soft glow of the bedside lamp casting long shadows. It all seemed so ordinary, yet my mind raced with uncertainty."You're awake," Sylvia appeared in front of me. She was holding a cup of tea. Holding the cupboard, she put beside me, on the bed table. "How are you, my daughter?" I massaged my foreh
