After meeting Xavier for the first time last night, Stella cannot find herself to sleep after she hit the sack. Of course, the brunette and grey eyes were to blame when it kept popping behind her retina when she was about to fall asleep but Stella managed to catch a few hours before she was ready to explore the small town again.She was getting dressed and she was ready to hit the café again before she was thinking about other locals café that might be offering her much more food, authentic Greek food that was known by the locals here. Stella was making her way to the next local-owned restaurant before she bumped into someone.“Oh, I am so sorry. I am not looking where I was going,” she said before she was looking at the woman that was in front of her. She was lean and muscular but she was like a model as well. Stella was blinking her eyes when she was staring at the familiar grey orbs that reminded her of someone that she wished to meet today.“No, it’s my fault. I don’t even watch wh
Stella’s heart galloped when she saw that Xavier was holding the hand of the beautiful woman that was talking to her earlier. She knew that she cannot compete with her. Not with her looks and certainly not with her identity who was a tourist here.She will be gone from here soon enough.She felt her face was heated up when she was entering the café that she knew Sam would be there. She was looking around before Sam was waving at her. Stella smiled before she went to the counter to order her food as Sam was smirking at her.“Well, look who’s came back. I knew The Special Brunch was something else,” Sam said before Stella smiled weakly at her. Instantly, Sam knew what was playing on her mind. And they just met 2 days ago but Stella felt like she has known that woman for years.“Oh no, what happens now?” Sam asked her before Stella shook her head. She doesn’t want to think about a certain man with grey orbs and brunette hair. All she wanted to do right now was to be buried in misery.But
Xavier has followed the two of them from the shadows as he did not want Sam to alarm Stella that he was nearby. But when Sebastian’s sister told her about their legend of how Paphos came to be what it was, he could not help but growl at Sam.In their mind link, of course. It would be dreadful if Stella can hear him.‘What the fuck do you think you’re doing? Explaining all about our ancestry to a foreigner?’ Xavier said as Sam just went away from Stella, leaving her alone in the town square. He will be going back to her as soon as he deals with this insufferable woman first.‘It just seems right at the moment. And do not give me that crap either. I don’t think you want to protect the legend from her just because you valued our secrecy. No, you’re afraid that she would not like who you are,’ Sam hit the right nerve before Xavier growled at her again.‘Don’t use that tone with me. I am your Beta,’ he said before Sam was rolling her eyes. He can feel it.‘And I am your Ultima. I mean, who
Xavier ran through the dark forest but thanks to his Special’s blessing, he can see through the dark. The locals called him and his pack werewolves. It was an insult but they took it as a compliment for the humans were never truly understood what they capable of.Xavier changed back behind one of the trees before he took black sweatpants and ran toward the house as he can sense that his sister was acting up.Please let her be okay. Please let her be okay! Xavier prayed before he went inside and saw that Sam was sitting in the living room with Luna Marina. They both turned to look at him before Luna Marina was nodding at him.Xavier returned the gesture before Caleb, his best friend, was coming at him as the sympathy was on his face.“What happened to her? she was okay when I spoke to her earlier,” he said before Caleb was pulling him to the side, walking toward his sister’s room.“She found her mate,” Caleb said before Xavier turned to look at him. This was supposed to be good news but
Xavier was looking at his mother, waiting for her to tell her the news that he wanted to hear. He did not know much about his father after he married his mother. They said that it was an arranged match and they have not complied with it.Must have taken a lot of strength for her to endure her husband, Xavier thought before his mother was showing him a piece of paper. It was rather old looking really and he was taking it to read the content in it. It was written in English.“An agreement?” Xavier asked her before his mother nodded. Then, he read. And blinked. Then reread it again.“Is this even legit, mother?” he asked her before she sighed. His mother has been weary and he knew that he cannot force her to tell him everything. But this agreement…it changed everything that he stood for these past years.After his father’s betrayal.His sister’s secret.His own selfishness.He gulped before his mother took his hand. Xavier turned to look at her before she smiled at him.“We have known tha
Stella was breathing heavily ever since she was at the festival right now. She did not know what was happening but something about the air in the festival was making her head dizzy.Well, dizzy for XavierShe watched him from the peripheral view of her eyes before they were greeting someone that was coming their way. Stella did not know this man but apparently, Xavier did.“Beta,” the young man said and when Stella looked at him closely, it was the same young man when they have a brunch at the café on the first day. He was there with Xavier in town to do some business.“Zack, is there anything you want to say to me about our ‘business’ during this hour?” Xavier came up beside her before she felt his hand on her waist. Was this the possessive move that Stella was hoping for Xavier to do to her?If so, why would she felt so sad right now?“Yes…it was your—““Do not tell me it’s my sister again. I can assure you that my mother has taken care of her and she was not healthy enough to travel
Stella was following Xavier to a neighborhood that she did not know about. She was staring at the dark streets that were away from the festival as they were walking in the dark. Stella stuck close to her man as she was clutching his hand.“Do not worry. There was nothing to be afraid of in here. It is safe for us,” her man mumbled Stella was nodding slowly at him. They were walking a bit by bit before Xavier stopped in front of a house. It was like a cottage but bigger.Stella gulped when she realized that they were not in the dark streets anymore but in the forest. How come she did not notice that they have entered the forest before?“Who lives here?” she asked before she was looking around. The forest was murky and dark but Xavier just chuckled when she was gripping his hand even more.“Come, I think you will like it here,” he said before he unlocked the door and went inside. Stella followed him before the lights were turned on. She was blinded for a moment until she had adjusted to
Xavier stopped and stilled inside Stella after hearing her scream. Shit, fuck! He did not know that she might be a virgin when he first took her. His wolf was purring with pride that no one ever touches her.‘Mine,’ it purred before Xavier was looking at her. there was a single tear that ran down her cheek before he kissed it away.“I am so sorry, love. I did not know. If I have known…” he said before Stella opened her eyes and she gasped as she was staring at him. She was the most beautiful woman Xavier ever saw and he was happy that she was his.Forever.“It’s okay, it’s fine. I’m just…I need a moment,” she said shyly before she was trying to adjust her core with his girth. Xavier was groaning before he was nuzzling her throat, inhaling her sweet scent. His wolf purred at their close contact.“God, you’re a torture and paradise for me, love,” Xavier said before he was trying to make her feel comfortable with their position. Stella gasped before she was gripping his hair even more Xav
