Once Aurora was sure they walked out. She gaped at her almost twenty percent burnt food and turned off the stove. She immediately sauntered towards her room. Getting into the restroom she tried to calm down splashing water on her face multiple times as she grasped the basin tightly. She could still feel his hands on her and it made her shiver.Wiping her face she wore pajamas and left the room to set the table. She was flustered and didn't know how she would face him. No matter how much she tried not to think but she only ended up thinking about tonight when they would sleep on the same bed.She set the table as Draken walked in. His eyes lingered on her legs which were now covered. "Y.. you freshen up, dinner is ready." She mumbled while setting the tables. Her eyes were lowered as she noticed him walk away.She breathed in a sigh once he disappeared from her sight. One thing she was sure of was a long awkward dinner.Draken served himself as he noticed the slightly burnt taste, he c
It was early dawn when they reached the Moon pack. Aurora was beaming as she kept staring out of the window. She looked like a child who was going to her favorite place.As they got closer to the packhouse. She turned to face Draken who was peering at her all this time. She fidgeted with her fingers before speaking. "H...How do you want me to treat you in front of my family?" She asked in a small voice.She knew Draken didn't want anyone to know that he was a good guy. He must've had his reasons. She was glad he brought her here, so she would do as he wanted.Perching her chin up he made her look at him. "Treat me as you like, Princess." He rasped and her cheeks heated up, she dropped her gaze and gave him a shaky nod.The car came to a halt and her eyes lit up seeing the place where she grew up. Getting out of the car she dashed towards the packhouse where Rasmus emerged from the main door and next thing Aurora threw herself at him, hugging him tightly as he smiled."You came," He sa
Draken was in the garden when he felt someone's gaze on him. He sighed."You can come out now. I can sense you," Draken said and after a long minute, a girl emerged out of the shadows. It was Angela. Aurora's little sister. She was probably 12 or 13 years old."Ummm, sir. I need to speak with you," She said professionally as if he was her boss and she was his employee and the way she looked scared as if he was going to fire her from the job."Have a seat," He said with that soft tone, which he used only with Aurora. He tilted his head motioning to her.He could tell she was scared of him and probably contemplating and whatnot. Their first impression of him wasn't pretty cool now, was it?She strutted to him and took a seat beside him on the bench. A fleeting moment passed before she cleared her throat. She opened her mouth to speak before shutting it again, she snuck a glance at him and flinched turning crimson when she found his eyes already staring at her. She curled her fingers int
It was nighttime when Aurora walked out into the backyard looking for Draken and just as she expected he was there in the garden sitting on the bench but she was surprised to find him with company. Angela sat beside him as she talked to him while beaming.Aurora watched stunned. Why didn't Angela look scared of him? But it was good if he was getting along with someone in her family.She walked back inside the kitchen and started preparing herbal tea. The staff member looked at her shocked because she never used to cook back then. She gave them a cheeky smile and they grinned back at her.The maid cleaned the kitchen as she retired to her quarters. Draken seemed so out of place in her house. She wondered if he must be feeling weird considering he was in his enemy's pack but this had to change one day and he had to become a part of her family, he was her mate after all. She noticed how he tried to avoid everyone and stayed alone most of the day. After dinner, he was in the backyard so
Just a few minutes after Angela walked away. He felt anxious all of a sudden but that wasn't it. He felt fear and pain. It took him a few seconds to realize that these emotions weren't his. It was the mate bond. Aurora.His eyes widened as he stood up abruptly and turned around only to find a hysteric-looking Angela running up to him with tears streaming down her cheeks.His body moved on its own as he dashed inside the mansion past Angela. He followed Aurora's scent and all he saw was red when he found Luca holding her hand. The tears and fear in Aurora's eyes towards Luca made him see red.Lunging forward he threw a solid punch at Luca who stumbled back. Draken would've killed that f*cker if Aurora didn't hug him.She pleaded with him and he controlled his rage. Giving a menacing glare to Luca he dragged Aurora out of there.Aurora closed the door of her room as soon as Draken stepped inside. She turned to face Draken who was hovering over her like a fuming beast. "Why didn't you l
They both were surprised by his sudden presence as Emma passed him a small smile."Draken, do you like my daughter except for the mate bond?" Emma asked him directly and Aurora gaped at her mom in silence."I do, ma'am," Draken said confidently and Aurora's eyes whipped in his direction. Completely surprised.Emma noticed the glint in his eyes and she knew he wasn't lying."Would you like to marry my daughter?" Emma asked."I would love to, ma'am." He replied and Aurora was stunned to say anything. She gaped at her mate with big wide eyes.Emma grinned at him as she gently patted his arm. "You can call me Emma or Mom. Whatever you like," Emma beamed at him."Sure, Emma," Draken said with a small smile."We had to leave tomorrow afternoon. So if you can arrange everything by morning, I'll be thankful." Draken said and Aurora blinked at him surprised.What has gotten into him?"I will. Thank you for agreeing," Emma said genuinely happy. "Please, don't be," Draken said gently as Emma be
"I promise to challenge you and to accept challenges from you. I promise to love you in good times and in bad. I promise to treasure you. These things I give to you now and throughout the seasons of our lives." Draken said as his intense gaze peered down at her. Her heart stuttered in her chest when he said the word love. Was he saying it by heart or just for the need of it? Goosebumps rose on her flesh when she saw specs of gold in his eyes, his wolf peeking at her.Her wolf surged forward and silver swirled in her eyes as her wolf peered at him."I promise to l...love you when life seems easy and when it seems hard, when our love is simple, and when it is an effort. I promise to hold you in the highest regard. These things I give to you now and throughout the seasons of our lives." She whispered and these vows were uttered from the bottom of her heart. Not for the need of the situation but because she wanted to say it. This was how she felt. She has fallen for him.Draken cupped her
As Draken expected, that wolf jumped on the car ruining their escape but that wasn't it. There were rocks on the road as if they were put there specifically to stop their car.Draken glanced at Aurora once who was running toward the woods.Draken took out his silver knife and threw it at the wolf that was lunging at him. The knife pierced the wolf's eye as it howled out in pain.Draken pounced on that wolf as he pulled out the knife and sliced the wolf's throat.Draken hasn't shifted yet as one of the wolves fell on the floor with a thud, dead.He counted their attackers. There were six of them but he knew there were two more hiding, he could sense it. His warriors were dealing with three whereas one was already dead.Draken's eyes swept toward Aurora's direction and his heart came to his mouth when he saw one of the wolves running in her direction.A hiss of pain tore through his lips when a shot was fired and a bullet graced his torso gracing his skin badly.Draken lunged at the man
