Her body sagged, her arms wrapped around his torso and she let out a loud wail filled with sadness and pain that pulled at the strings of his stone-cold heart, his body stiffening at her touch.
What was this feeling?
A freaking mate bond, without any doubt.
Her soft hand clutched to his shirt tightly in a fist and the way she hugged him with all her power made him gulp.
He wanted to touch her no doubt but why in the heck did this hug feel something different from his always felt desire?
His large hands rubbed her back softly to calm her down. She was slowly and gradually gathering herself back because when she jolted away from him, he understood she must've realized what she was doing.
Xander parked the car near the bar where Jack with his douchebags was. He was keeping tabs on that bastard since morning when he got to know it was him who had given her that vulgar written piece of paper, she didn't know who gave her that letter which meant he must've placed it in her locker or bag. And that little thing thought it was him. Ironic! Xander didn't need to write shit when he could do that to her easily. His hold on the steering wheel tightened so that his knuckles turned white. Jack came out of that bar with his folks which Xander has seen a couple of times in the academy. One of them was Landon. They did the bro hug and bid their bye, Jack and the other guy had girls on their sides while Landon left in his car alone. The other guy also left with the girl, now it was just Jack and the blond on his
"Death or broken bones?" She asked herself for the umpteenth time. Emma was standing near the window of his room. She had opened it up with much difficulty and now she needs to get down from here, she was on the second floor and the ground seems so far away. She was sure to get a few of her bones broken if she jumped from here. So she has made up a rope using his bedsheets but it wasn't enough so she took out a few of his branded dress shirts and tied them with the sheets in a manner of elongating the rope, finally when she was sure it was tight enough to carry her weight, she threw it down the window and had secured the one end of it to the foot of the bed. She hasn't screamed for help because she didn't want to be caught. Yes, she didn't want the news of a student staying in her teacher's house getting out and
"I'm gonna devour her first." He said while grinning like a maniac. "Are you a virgin?" The normal-looking guy asked, her throat was all clogged up and her tongue felt like a stone in her mouth. The paleness of her face gave her away. "Fuck! She is!" The bald guy muttered while approaching her. Emma limped a step back and her back touched the island of the kitchen. Large tears that pooled in her eyes made her vision blurry. "Is she mute?" The guy with the scorpion on his face spoke up. "I'll go first on her and you can find out." The piercing guy hissed, making every cell in her body tremble. The bald guy smoothly turned off the
As soon as Xander reached home all he wanted to do was engulf her in his embrace but something wasn't right. He hurriedly walked into his house and towards his room, unlocking it he was met with an empty room. "Fuck!" He cussed loudly while looking at the bed that had moved from its place, a cloth was tied to its foot which was going out of the window. Running there he gazed out of the window only to cuss one more time when he noticed how short that shitty rope was, he pulled that thing back inside the room from the window and stared at the ruined form of his shirts. Has she lost her mind? Within a few minutes, he was driving towards her house in his car. His eyes landed on his bruised knuckles, he had placed Jack's bruised body back in his car and left him there. Someone would've probably found him there but for now, his basic concern was, Belle. How stupid of her to leave like this and at this fucking time. Her house was far from her, how in the world she would even go there, she
He has hurt her, he can still see the marks of his fingers on her delicate neck. He stalked her and watched her like a creep when she stripped but he didn't regret it one bit, what he regretted was hurting her yesterday. He shouldn't have raised his hand on her and now she won't think of him as anything different from these bastards. He was glad she hadn't seen his golden eyes or his changes when Blade was taking over because then she would've been running for hills. She was already scared of him, he cannot let her know what he was, not now, not ever. "Let's go home." He said softly while she just stared at his hands as if they were loaded weapons. She kept quiet, moving more back, if possible she would get inside the wall. Blade growled at him to yank her out, threw her on his shoulder, and took her home but that was not what he wanted, for Lord knows what reason. He freaking wanted her to trust him and in some twisted sadistic way, he wanted to prove that he wasn't like those me
He left the room. Emma could still feel their filthy touch on her skin, it was sickening her, she needed to get their touch off of her body, and without thinking much, she limped to the restroom, locking the door she got rid of her clothes and turned on the shower. Her eyes closed shut in pain when the water washed over the cut on her forehead and lower lip. The rusted blood; now washing away. She vigorously rubbed her arms, and her chest where she felt their touch. She was scrubbing so roughly that her skin became raw and tender but she could care less. Her big fat tears mixed with water as they continued to fall. She was loathing herself, why all of this was happening to her again. Wasn't one trauma enough for a lifetime that she had to face another one? But she was glad, so thankful to God for saving her on time. If not for Mr. Colt, she would've been raped. This man was out of her understanding. At one moment he was all harsh and angry and then sometimes he was so soft and ca
Only if she would've been she-wolf, she then knew what a f*ck mate was and what they meant to each other but moon Goddess chose a human girl for him. A beautiful, naive little girl. "Why did you try to escape?" His voice was soft but he wanted to know why she did that. She kept quiet but he wasn't having it. "I need the truth." His voice was dangerously low, leaving no room for arguments. "Y-you l-locked me." She complained but when she got no response from him it meant he wanted to hear more. "I w..was scared that you'll hurt me." She blurted out with a quivering chin. Her answer was obvious but he didn't like it one bit. Oddly he wanted her to feel safe in his embrace but he didn't give her any reason to feel that. "I will not hurt you." He repeated those same words for the third time in these hours. Emma just nodded her head, not being able to answer him. Xander treated the wound on her forehead and with a glance at her bruised and battered face he wanted to kill those bast
Emma woke up with a sigh but her eyes widened when she noticed the difference in her surroundings, her bed was softer and then it clicked in her. Last night's memories came flowing into her mind like a tsunami and she tensed up for a second. Getting off the bed she limped to the dressing table as she gazed at her swollen bruised face in the mirror. The fingerprints of the slap were gone but the swelling and slight blueness were still there. A thin dried line of blood on her lower lip and her forehead. Her foot was swollen to its fullest. She softly raised her shirt and gazed at the claw marks on her ribs. Luckily the wounds and bruises of this time would fade away and won't leave a permanent mark like that one. With a heavy sigh, she limped to the restroom and went through her morning routine. She was sure that it was a guest room because every essential thing was present in the restroom and they were new, packed, and untouched. Emma slowly unlocked the door and went to sit back on
"W...why are you locking the door?" She stuttered but her breath hitched when he turned to face her. "What the fuck was Hunter saying?" He asked in low menace. Rasmus was always the calm type. It was the first time she was seeing him angry like this. "N...nothing. I need to go." She gulped before walking past him but he didn't let her leave. Grabbing her arm he pulled her back right in front of him. "What the fuck Hunter was saying?" He asked again, making her look away. There was anger in his olive green eyes. "He was joking. He wanted to rile you up. It was all our plan and it worked." She snapped at him. Snatching her arm from his hold she walked past him. Just when she was about to open the door. He swiveled her around and glared at her. Her wrist was in his hand. "Now what? I admit that I like you. I was just trying to make you jealous all these days so you would confess but you didn't and instead, you plotted your plan. Such a fox." He tsked. His eyes went from glaring at
Rasmus, Hunter, and Luca = 20 Sarah= Will turn 18 in this chapter. Aurora= 16 Angela= 10 "Em!" Connor wailed dramatically and the next thing he engulfed her in a bear hug. Emma couldn't help but let the tears out of joy. It was after so many years they were finally meeting. Though they talked on the phone often. Emma told him about Xabder after 4 years of her marriage. And she wasn't even ready to tell but Xander saw her talking to Connor so he grabbed the phone from her hand and introduced himself as her husband this time. Connor was rendered speechless and Xander further informed him about their two babies. Connor gave a good scolding to Emma for not informing him about this and he wasn't shocked. When Xander once picked up Emma's phone and informed Connor that he was Emma's boyfriend. Connor has had his suspicion since then and he also recognized his voice. Connor knew it was her teacher, Xander Colt. "I missed you," Emna mumbled softly on his chest, making Connor laugh. He
Hunter, Rasmus, luca= 16 Sarah= 14 Aurora= 12 Angela= 6 "Will she be alright?" Emma panicked. Her eyes were dead set on the doctor who sighed. "She will be fine, Luna. It's just a fever. Nothing serious. These medications would help." The doc said as he handed her some medicines. It was as if Emma could breathe again as she nodded her head. Ethan escorted the doctor out as Emma walked into Aurora's room. Aurora was lying on the bed. Her baby was suffering from a fever. Sitting beside her on the bed Emma caressed her forehead and kissed her cheek. "My strong baby," Emma mumbled as she continued to caress her princess. The door opened and Xander walked in. He looked tired. Their princess was suffering from a high fever for three days. They were always beside her all the time and now finally Aurora was getting better. Xander caressed Aurora's cheek before he pecked her forehead and sat there. After a while, the door slowly opened. Rasmus, Hunter, Luca, Sarah, and little Angela wa
Hunter, Rasmus, and Luca= 10 Sarah= 8 Aurora= 6 Emma stared at the pregnancy strip in her hand. Her eyes widened slightly when she saw two small horizontal lines on the strip. Positive. Her heart stuttered inside her chest. She was happy but she was nervous at the same time. They didn't plan this at all. She didn't know how it happened because she was on pills. After all, Mr. Xander Colt never used protection. She was still staring at the strip when the door to the restroom opened and Xander walked in. Finding her there, his hands immediately wrapped around her waist like a magnet as he pulled her back flushed to his chest. His face nuzzled in the crook of her neck as he breathed her scent. But then he paused. His eyes narrowed at the strip in her hand and then he abruptly swiveled her around in his arms so they were face to face. His large hands cupped her cheek as he made her look up. Their eyes met and he animatedly widened his eyes as if asking her the answer to an unasked
Hunter, Rasmus, and Luca= 7 Sarah= 5 Aurora= 3 "Sarah I swear if you touched my sword again with your baby hands. I'm gonna smash your doll!" Seven-year-old Hunter growled like a child at the five-year-old Sarah who stared at Hunter with her big brown eyes. "You won't do that," Sarah said in her baby voice, making a pout. She turned to stare at Luca who nonchalantly shrugged his shoulder. Hunter and Luca were always best buddies no matter what. Throwing the wooden sword toward Hunter. Sarah huffed and walked towards the bench as she sat on it, with her arms folded on her chest. A light smack landed on her head from behind making her gasp as she rubbed her head to glare at the person only to have a wide smile adorn her lips. "Rasmus." She squealed in joy, making Rasmus frown. "What? Why are you screaming, you poodle." Rasmus muttered and rounded the bench as he sat beside her while munching on his bubble gum. Sarah let out an exasperated gasp and pulled her poodle-like brown hai
"Xander!" Emma warned but he only growled in response. His face nuzzled in the crook of her neck. And his large calloused hand was on her right bosom as he squeezed it roughly through her dress making her gasp. Moving back he pressed a button and spoke up. "Head towards my farmhouse." He told the driver and removed his finger from the button as Emma gave him furrowed brows. "I don't want our kids to disturb us tonight." He muttered with a smile on his face making her giddy. "Silvia and Ethan would be pissed because they'll have to take care of four kids tonight," Emma warned, making him chuckle. "I'm the Alpha. They can't say anything to me." He muttered with a shrug. "Mean." She muttered lowly making him smirk. Grabbing her hand he kissed the back of it. And next thing he yanked her to him and slammed his lips on hers in a searing kiss. His tongue caressed hers, coaxing her to open her mouth and when she didn't he grabbed her rear and gave a rough squeeze to it making her gasp
Emma asked the staff about the directions to the ladies' restroom as she walked in there to find it empty. Rosa must be in one of the cabins. Emma stared at her reflection in the mirror and gasped in horror. Her lipstick was smudged a little making it clear what she might have done before arriving at the party. She cussed at herself for not looking in the proper mirror and she cussed at her mighty husband who didn't tell her. He might want everyone to see how his woman was so into him. Evil man. She wiped her lips with the tissue and then applied a new coat of lip gloss and now she looked much better. One of the doors opened and Rosa walked out and as soon as she noticed Emma she got startled with a soft gasp. "I'm sorry. I was startled." Rosa spoke softly and walked towards the basin. She placed something on the slab and washed her hands. "It's okay. I didn't mean to scare you." Emma said sweetly, making Rosa smile. Grabbing some tissues Rosa wiped her forehead off the sweat an
They reached the venue a little late but not too late as the guests were already arriving. When Xander told Emma that he was a world-famous business tycoon and the boss of the Colt empire, she was rendered speechless. Her man aka the Alpha of the Moon pack was a billionaire. This explained his lavish mansion and those expensive cars. They were invited to the silver jubilee of knight enterprises. Many top-notch people were invited and they were one of them. Thanks to Silvia she was looking after her kids that's why Emma was able to come. If not for Silvia coaxing her boys for a movie they would've never let her go out because they can't bear to leave their parents alone. Grabbing her small hand, Xander placed it on his arm and walked inside. "I forgot to tell you, doll. You look beautiful." He said sweetly and a big smile plastered on her face at that compliment. "You look handsome my Alpha." She mused, earning a groan from him. He loved it when she called him 'my Alpha.' It kinda
1 year later. "Doll, hurry up." Xander's voice came from outside the door. "Five minutes," Emma said back as she hurriedly pulled her dress on and was having difficulty closing the zip at the back when the door knob twisted open and Xander walked inside only to halt in his steps. He closed the door shut behind him as his eyes darkened at the sight of her bare back. "Are you seducing me?" He growled, making her gasp. With sparks of anger dancing in her eyes, she turned to face him and placed her hands on her hips. Her signature pose whenever he makes her angry. "I didn't even do anything," Emma complained while throwing her hands up in the air. "You're flexing that slim back of yours through the mirror and you're not seducing me." He faked shock as she narrowed her eyes at him. "Get out." She muttered lowly before turning to face the mirror and drowned herself in the quest to close her zipper which seemed impossible. A large cold hand came in contact with her back making her ga
