“Mmh! We shouldn't-”Keir's mouth covered mine in a hungry and demanding kiss, cutting me in the middle. I couldn’t help but let out a soft moan, pressing harder against him.“This taste! Have I kissed you before?” Keir mumbled between our lips while sucking my tongue passionately.Blood pounded in my brain, leapt from my heart and made my knees tremble. His lips continued to explore my soft ivory flesh as his lips seared a path down my neck to my shoulders.His fingers were hastily untying the knots of my fancy gown. His hands wandered recklessly on my back as his warm and moist lips kept on descending to my collarbone and downward, igniting my body heat. My body melted against him and the world was filled with him, exploding in a downpour of fiery sensation.I gasped in a sweet agony, “K-Keir! S-Stop it, please!”Though I was pleading with him to stop, my arms were encircled around his neck, and my body arched up to his. He was biting the tender flesh of my neck gently as he was sni
“No, let me stay and help you. They are outnumbering us.”I protested instantly while slashing the furry flesh of those females and guards who already began to shift in their werewolf and lycan forms. Violet grabbed my wrist as she insisted, “Miss, you must not stay here. The fight will get nasty from here.”I could feel that. Though Keir had only three or four pack members to help him, they were all vicious and impossible to fight back. Shifting in their Lycan forms, they began killing and attacking mercilessly. In a few minutes, the white and clean marble floor flooded with crimson liquid. Injured and corpses scattered here and there.However, the numbers of attackers were only increasing with time. I could feel that Keir’s pack members had already begun to get exhausted. They called for backup when one of those young lads got injured terribly.It was total mayhem so I didn’t want to leave in that situation selfishly.Swiftly moving my dagger, I cut the throat of an attacker who wa
(Golden Heart Packhouse, At 3:45 AM, present time)“Alpha!”A tall guy stormed into the vast and dark hall of the Golden Heart pack. Even in the dim light, the grandeur of the hall was clearly visible. There were none except for a single tall silhouette, resting on the huge golden throne in the middle of the hall. A soft tune was playing on the gramophone.His pale skin was complimenting his ginger hair. A black and long nightgown covered most of his body as he was holding a glass of whiskey, sipping from it occasionally. It looked like he was patiently waiting for someone.The dark silhouette entered hurriedly as his voice rose an octave, “Alpha! The meeting was interrupted.”The guy on the throne straightened his back as he asked in a deep voice, “Who dared to interrupt us, Jorden?”Jorden could feel the wrath in his low and deep tone. Taking a step forward, he removed his mask and replied guiltily, “Keir Walker and his pack members.”The loud noise of the crashing of the glass echo
“K-Keir!”I whispered in a low voice as I looked at him.Keir’s eyes instantly captured mine as it observed my face, scanning all over me. His rigid face became slightly darker and he approached me, taking big steps. Wishing me a brief goodbye, Violet left already, leaving two of us alone in that cabin.Examining my bandages, he asked in a concerned tone, “Is it hurting a lot?”“No, I am better now. They gave me painkillers,” I answered, tucking a strand of my hair behind my ear. I didn’t know why my heart again started to pound and I was even having a hard time to look up in his direction. Somehow, I could feel his intense gaze on me which was making me more uneasy.Though his magnetic voice sounded a bit tired, Keir spoke again in a dissatisfied tone, “This happened because of your stupidity. Hope you will learn from this and will never repeat it.”Frowning, I looked up and murmured annoyedly, “You should praise me instead of calling me stupid. You know?”Raising his eyes, Keir ask
Firefly!”Keir’s mischievous smirk disappeared instantly. His emerald eyes darkened like angry thunderclouds. He suddenly had a fiery, angry look that was unfamiliar to me. Before I could realise what was going on in his mind, Keir approached me in the blink of an eye.Hovering over me, he harshly grabbed my cheeks as he asked in a cold and lashing tone, “How! How did you know this name? Who are you?”He was standing a few inches away from me, tall and angry. His burning gaze bore into me with silent expression. The torment and frustration were clear in his tone. I couldn’t understand why that name triggered him so much.I somehow managed to mumble, ignoring the firm grip of his fingers, “What do you wanna know exactly?”Keir’s infuriated voice muttered impatiently, “Who is Firefly? Is that you? Did we meet before? Why do you keep coming into my nightmares? Why the hell don't you let me sleep every night? What have I-”“Keir! Calm down!”I mumbled in a scared tone, “I-I saw a firefly
“Don’t leave! If you don't treat your wound right now, it can get infected,” I murmured in a low and trembling tone, still grabbing his sleeve firmly.Keir sighed as he turned to me, “Are you scared to stay alone? I can send Violet to-”“NO! I am not scared of anything.”I demanded in a gentle tone, stealing a glance of his deep injury from his right shoulder to his back, “Let me call the nurse for you.”Keir looked a bit puzzled at first, not understanding why I was so demanding. But, looking at my teary eyes and the dark red spots on my cheeks, his face softened. He replied after a little pause, looking at me, “I don’t like to be touched by any female. Don’t call the nurse. I will treat it myself.”My mouth felt like old paper, dry and dusty. Without letting go of his sleeve, I murmured promptly, “There is the first aid box in that cabinet. Do it here. I will help you if you need.”Honestly, I was very reluctant to let him go at that moment.A weird fear was tormenting me within. It
Asher? How did he-”Keir answered while putting on the shirt, “I sent my car for him. You must be worried for him so I brought him here.”I replied happily, “Come in, Ashy.”Suddenly recalling his injury, I stopped Keir hastily, “I wasn’t done yet. I need to wrap the bandage.”Gently brushing his fingers on my cheeks once again, he murmured in his magnetic tone, “Sorry for losing control and hurting you and thanks for the first aid. I will take care of the rest.”My little boy already entered the cabin while holding his dinosaur plushie. Though I wanted to stop Keir, he already stood up from his chair and picked Asher up from the ground with a bright and unusual face, “Little Man, good to see you here.”Asher’s face also beamed happily. Wrapping his tiny arms around his neck, he answered promptly, “Keir Uncle, did you save my mommy from bad people like I watched in the cartoon?”Keir chuckled softly, “Who told you that?”“Morris Uncle told me. Thank you. You are the best. You really a
“Get in!”“You? Why are you here?”I was shocked to see Keir in the driver's seat of the car. Coming out of the car, Keir opened the door for me as he answered briefly, “To pick you up. Morris and Violet are not in the town today.”“I know that. I could just return to my home alone. I wasn’t expecting you here,” I answered promptly. However, opening the front door for me, next to the driver seat, he answered casually, “You are not returning home. I asked the doctor and he said that you can join the work from today.”“What! That’s just unfair. Can’t I get a holiday?” I complained helplessly.Keir signed me to enter inside the car as he answered nonchalantly, “No, no more holiday. You already enjoyed two lazy days.”I got in the car as I mumbled, rolling my eyes, “Those were just painful days. Humph!”I noticed Keir’s mischievous smirk, playing on his lips. He looked in a light mood that morning as he started the car. Suddenly, he leaned closer to me, startling me. While pulling the s
“Let’s begin!”The staff of Paradise declared excitedly, distributing the cards between two fine gentlemen with an extremely dominating and powerful aura. Both of them were standing out in the crowds of the drunkard as they were sitting lazily in their place. I preferred to stand behind to avoid unnecessary attention but Keir pulled me next to him, “Stay next to me. I don’t want you to get lost in the crowd, My wealth.”I asked, frowning my brows a bit, “Your wealth? Really?”Keir chuckled softly as he teased me, suddenly pulling my chair closer to his, “Yes, really. You are the most precious one to me right now. I am betting you to win of course.”Rolling my eyes, I only mumbled in a threatening tone, “Don’t think that I will let you slip easily for your audacity.”My reaction seemed to amuse him. He smiled benignly as if dealing with a temperamental child, “I don’t even want to be slipped out of your thoughts, Firefly. Now be quiet and witness my skill.”However, I couldn’t really
DO IT! DO IT! DO IT!”The crowd was cheering in chorus as we entered the vast hall of Paradise. Every inch of the hall was filled with gamblers. The reddish and bright lights of the hall made it look more intriguing. The strong scent of alcohol and thick smoke were lingering in the air.Weaving our path through the drunk and excited crowd when we walked forward, we noticed numerous tables of pokers. On a vast table in the middle of the room, a middle aged guy was standing and striping his clothes, one by one. He looked embarrassed but the crowd was cheering excitedly.I could see the back of the winner who was sitting lazily while counting his gold bars. The man in his undergarments asked in a low and trembling voice, on the verge of crying, “I have given everything that I had with me- my car, my gold chain, key of my house, my cards, all my money and even my clothes. Now let me go, Sir.”The healthy and bald guy stopped counting as he looked up and answered in his gruff and taunting
“Stop! Stop here.”I suggested in a low whisper, checking my surroundings. Keir instantly stopped the bike, near the Starfall forest. The Red Light village was just at the end of the forest. Both Keir and I were wearing black cloaks to hide ourselves.Scanning the place, Keir asked, “We still didn’t reach the village. Why did you ask me to stop here?”Getting down from the bike, I answered while fixing my cloak, “We will walk from here, Mr. It is safe to hide the bike here so that we can find it in an emergency.” Chuckling softly, Keir followed me. I was walking through the narrow and muddy path of the village when he spoke again from behind, closing the distance between us, “Emergency? What kind of emergency, M’lady?”Without looking back, I directly took the main path to the village fair. The village looked very ordinary but not poor. The houses were mostly two-storeyed and colourfully decorated. On the balconies of the majority of houses, beautiful and tempting women in revealing
‘Damn! I shouldn’t be here.’I mumbled nervously while twisting the rose in my hand. It was almost late at night. When I received the note from Keir, I decided not to meet him. I didn’t want to disobey Eden. However, after dinner, I thought of taking a walk and instinctively, I found myself in front of the rose garden.The night felt colder than usual. While wrapping my arms around me, I scanned my surroundings. The faint, sweet fragrance of the roses intoxicated the air around me. The soft and cold breezes of the late night were playing through them, making a wild, rustling sound. There wasn’t any guard around me; neither any sign of Keir.Standing in front of the garden, I waited for a few seconds while enjoying the cool breezes, ‘Mmh! I better go back to my room and finish my novel.’ I murmured in a low whisper as I turned in the direction of my bedroom.Instantly, I felt a gentle tap on my shoulder, followed by a husky and magnetic voice, “Didn’t you like the pendant, M’lady?”“K
POV of Eliza Claire Gold)“Ugh! My head!”I touched the back of my head and sticky, red liquid covered my fingers with a sharp pain. It was too dark to see anything around me.‘Where am I? Why is it so dark h-’I mumbled in a dry voice. The next second, I recalled everything.I unlocked the door of my house and I instantly felt the presence of outsiders. I was ready to attack but Asher’s scream distracted me. I heard his loud and sudden cry, and I ran to his bedroom immediately. Surprising me, a short but bulky guy was standing there whose half face was covered with a black mask. He was holding Asher from behind, and his clawed hand was aimed at his tiny throat.“Stop where you are, Miss,” The intruder ordered sharply.Though I was glaring at him, he looked fearless and powerful. Instinctively, my eyes shifted on Asher’s teary and scared face. I asked, taking a step back, “Who are you? What do you want from me?”The guy signed me to kneel as he answered briefly, “You. We are here for
(POV of Keir Walker, In the dinner party of the Diamond Resort)“Brother!”Lucy said softly as her sharp eyes narrowed slightly, “Keir is just too busy. Otherwise, he always calls me and tries to talk.”Though her soft voice sounded confident, Lucas didn’t look convinced. His cold gaze scanned me swiftly as his cold and calm face relaxed a bit with an affectionate grin. I answered, looking up, “It seems that Lucas still enjoys being sarcastic.”Chuckling softly, Lucas greeted Alpha Kenneth as he took the seat next to Lady Rosemond. While sipping from the glass of his wine, he answered, “Sarcasm! My sister is going crazy for you, Keir. Shouldn’t you take better care of her?”“It is just work pressure. I hope that you are already aware of our sale’s condition. If I don’t work hard, how will I take care of your sister in the future?” I asked, raising my brows. The tension between us was so intense that everyone felt it.However, Lucy wrapped her arm around mine as she interrupted both of
(POV of Keir Allen Walker)“Hello?”I received the call and Lucy’s annoyed voice echoed from the other side. She sounded quite angry as she asked impatiently, “Where are you, Keir? I have been waiting for you for the last 2 hours. When are you going to come?”Sighing secretly, I answered briefly, “I was stuck at work.”“Exactly, how long will it take you to arrive here? Everyone is waiting for you and you are giving me excuses now. Really?” Lucy complained furiously.I had no energy left to deal with her. She always used to give me a headache. It wasn’t easy to handle her personality. Surprisingly, my Lycan didn’t like her aura at all though she was my fated mate and we were engaged for the last five years.Lucy was my childhood sweetheart and we spent a lot of time together. I didn’t know why my Lycan still reacted like that. Was our relationship always bitter like this? I couldn't really recall my past that much.However, we played a lot together when we were kids.I asked after a l
“Keir!”The tense lines on my face relaxed immediately. I instantly pushed him inside the room and closed the door behind us. I sighed in relief when the sound of the approaching footsteps faded gradually. Resting my forehead against Keir’s chest, I mumbled in a low and breathy voice, “Thank God! I found you. I- I-”I couldn’t say anymore. I didn’t even realise that I was resting my head on his chest until his hand gently touched the back of my head. All the sounds disappeared and his steady heartbeat calmed me down.After a little pause, Keir asked in a low and gentle voice, “What is wrong? Why do you look so scared?”Without looking up, I mumbled briefly, “Why did you leave me alone in the hall? I was looking for you everywhere.”Keir’s familiar scent and his warmth worked like magic. In a few seconds, the inner torment and fear of Lucas both faded away from my mind. I slowly looked up, taking a step back from him.Keir spoke in an odd yet gentle tone, “S-sorry. I shouldn’t have lef
‘He needs me, really?’Staring at the sea bitterly, I thought to myself, “What does Dave want me to know? I was always madly in love with Keir. I was ready to sacrifice anything for him. What did I get in the end?”Tears trembled on my eyelids as I gulped down my sobs and tried to calm down my rapid heartbeats. I sensed an odd twinge of disappointment. The lonely silence of the deck was impossible to endure anymore.Still, I waited there for a little longer, leaning against the railings. The sky looked darker and nearer there than I usually get to see in my town. The sparking stars adorned the sky, making different designs on the sky. Still, the moon looked so lonely and outcasted. The soft breezes were tousling my hair as my restless heart calmed down slowly. I suddenly began to feel an intense urge to return home, to go back to Asher. Wiping the drops of tears from the corner of my eyes, I began to walk in the opposite direction in search of Keir.The crowd was mostly busy at the
