Andrei’s POV Fuck the moon goddess. She had to be playing some insane trick on me. On a normal day, I would have been unable to keep myself away from my mate. She was gorgeous and every bit stunning. But she just had to be the last person that could be my Luna. A part of me had hoped that her management skills would at least compensate for her weak wolf. But she had been unable to handle Ariana. That was more than enough to let me know how right I was. Anya was too weak to be my Luna, and tying the both of us together with the mate bond would be a mistake on my part. “Stand up, Anya,” I ordered, annoyed by her huddled position on the floor. From here, I could see the v- outline of her black panties, and my cock throbbed in my pants. “She’s the best mate for me, for us,” Daiz growled within me, and I scoffed. Best mate? Perhaps she had the best body and a very beautiful face. But that was the only strong quality she had. There were too many girls that could satisfy
Anya's POVI groaned as I opened my eyes; my head felt heavy, and I was struggling to see. I held the bedside table and used it to support my frame, and when I regained my balance, I walked to the bathroom.I don’t know how I managed to sleep off with what happened last night. But right now, I felt like my body was going to fall apart any minute, and hunger was clawing at my insides.I had missed dinner, and clearly, no one had cared enough to check in with me about it.I was out of dresses and wore one of my more casual clothes that was straight out of my college wardrobe. When I had packed for a visit to Papa, my plan had been a two-day trip, and my dresses at home were the few I had gotten during the special balls that had been held at the pack.I was going to have to find a solution to that.My stomach grumbled as I finished putting on my clothes, and I took small steps to the door and stopped.As hungry as I was, the last thing I wanted was to meet Andrei this early in my day. An
Andrei’s POVThe sun beamed right into my eyes as I groaned and adjusted in bed. I noticed Ariana's hands wrapped around my torso, and I threw her hands off me as I stood up from the bed.Arianna shifted her weight in the bed, and I remembered how I had ended up fucking her multiple times while imagining that she was Anya.I'm not sure how long I could keep myself away from Anya. Even when I closed my eyes, all I could see was her enchanting body. She was definitely a seductress sent from hell to torment me.Last night, I had succumbed and called last night so that I could get Anya out of my system. I had not planned for Ariana to sleep over. This was a first, and it was a first that I was completely displeased with. I wiped the moisture from my body and returned to my room, now dressed in one of my home pants.When I approached Ariana, she yawned and stretched her body like a wild cat, her glance falling on me, and she grinned seductively. "You're up," she whispered, and I nodded, my
Anya’s POVI shot up from my bed at the first sign of the sun going down and hid the book I had been reading under my pillow. Luckily, I had taken some books while I was leaving. At the very least, I was able to understand how to let Ozel take over my body easily. And that I needed constant training for Ozel to be stronger. I guess she hadn’t been lying to me after all. Since Abel had granted me permission to take a tour of the palace, I had been unable to take my mind off it all day.I packed my hair into a loose ponytail and carried my only jacket. I opened my door partly, checking that there was no one in the hallway, even though there was only one person that I was worried about meeting. Satisfied, I stepped out of my room. As I walked down the steps, I was glad that I could still find my way around the house. The moment I stepped out of the mansion, I took a deep breath and smiled at the difference in the air. The mansion was dark, the curtains barely raised, and my every
Anya's POV“No, we need to teach her a lesson that she will not forget,” one girl, who had kept quiet all along, said as she stepped forward. As soon as she said this, my eyes settled on her, and I stood on alert, hoping they didn’t have the thought of physically hurting me, which I wouldn’t allow.The girl took a few steps toward me, swaying her hips as she did. She stopped walking when she was merely an inch away from me; our gaze met, and her breath fanned my face. She smirked and abruptly shoved me.Ariana and her minions broke out laughing as I fell to the floor and groaned. My ankle twisted, and I was hardly able to stand up.My eyes became fuzzy, lumps formed in my throat, and I attempted to gulp down the painful lumps, which was impossible. I know I shouldn't show weakness, but I couldn't help myself with five of them ganging up on me.My gaze was still fixed on the floor, tears pooling in my eyes, threatening to fall and liberate me from the rage and anguish I felt within, I
Abel’s POVI couldn't believe what almost transpired between me and Anya; my head was jumbled with numerous questions, and I felt a sudden headache. Everything around us seemed to vanish at that moment, leaving only me and Anya to wallow in lust.I desperately wanted to kiss her, and the look she gave me didn't help. It felt like she was summoning me to kiss her, but I'm glad we could stop in time. I wanted to talk to Anya and apologise, but she quickly walked away, which, I believed, was best for all of us.One thing was sure about what transpired between me and Anya: I was certain I was insanely attracted to her, but I wasn’t sure about a mate bond. It almost felt like it.It felt like what was written in those books.I could tell that Anya had felt it, too. That had to be why she rushed away so quickly.However, I was glad that the kiss didn’t happen. With Kern’s interest and Andrei’s weird protectiveness over her, there was no telling what would happen, but I knew that the kiss wo
Andrei’s POV“Come in,” I grumbled, wondering who was here after my work hours. I had less than three hours to get some rest before I started work again.I stepped out from the restroom with a white towel draped low around my waist, exposing my abs and v-line. I was holding another towel that I used to wipe away the moisture on my body.The door was pushed open, and Abel entered the room, his glance falling on me, and I arched my brows. I dropped the towel I was holding while Abel settled on one of the sofas."I was going to come see you after I got some rest. Did you hear about the attack?" The attack on the other side must have been why he came here.However, Abel furrowed his brows, looking perplexed.“What attack?” he asked, confirming my guess that he didn’t hear anything. “I was busy training with Kern and just got back,” he added.“I guess that makes sense. One of our outskirts pack was attacked.” Abel shot up from his seat, clearly not expecting it.“Who gave them the guts?” H
Anya's POVAfter getting the hang of their schedule, I got up early today, and I'm glad that I finally got a proper sleep since I got here. Not meeting Andrei all through yesterday had made my day much better. Of course, there was that scene with Ariana; that was no new thing, and it didn’t come with an ache of having your mate hate you.The kitchen was empty, but I could see the signs that it had been used this morning as I took some eggs and juice from the fridge.I make a breakfast of scrambled eggs and downed my juice before I stand up and leave.“Lady Anya,” someone called as I walked out of the kitchen, and I turned to face the person who had called me. It was a petite lady with a massive smile on her face whom I hadn't seen before; I was surprised she knew my name because I hadn't interacted with anyone apart from the brothers, Ariana, and her minions.She stopped walking when she was a few steps away from me, her smile still on her face; it was awkward since I didn't know what
