The moment my eyes landed on him, a sense of familiarity set in. As if I knew him. This man reminded me of someone that I used to know. Those dark eyes, they reminded me of a man I was in love with years ago but he didn't have the slightest resemblance as compared to his features. This man even had a different accent. I felt as if I was losing my mind. Perhaps the alcohol was taking full effect on me. I knew it could sometimes cause hallucinations. Perhaps that was the case. This was unhealthy. I couldn't continue to grieve over a man that wasn't mine to begin with and getting angry at someone that just did me a favor. The least I should have done was thank him. No one else would have taken the initiative to save my ass back there. I knew deep down that I was cursed. No other man would be willing to stand up for me. Even if they did, they all would scorn me after discovering that I was wolfless. Maybe this Romanian Greek god would do the same if he discovered the truth. However at t
I felt so safe within his arms. I didn't want to leave it for a second, even after the music had ended. I hugged him tightly. As if my life depended on it. His body was unusually warm. It wasn't a sensation that I have ever experienced before. I felt like a kitten in his arms. I was scared that I might end up purring in his arms. I felt safe and secure and I didn't want to leave that for the world. I couldn't get enough of his masculine scent. "Are you going to let go." He inquired. My eyes went round and I could feel the heat creeping its way to my cheeks. I quickly retracted my arms from his neck and took a step back. "I'm sorry." I held my head down as I tugged on my bottom lips with my teeth. It was an habbit I had grow attached to ever since I was a kid. I woulddo it whenever I got nervous. "What are you sorry about beautiful?" He rested his hand gently under my chin and lifted it. His touch was just so gentle. His hand against my skin felt so great. I looked into his deep b
I woke up the following morning with a throbbing head. The headache I experienced was nothing I have ever encountered in my life and not to mention the excruciating pain that I was feeling throughout my body. What could I say? I deserved every ounce of it for pumping my body full of toxins. Besides all if that my memories seemed blur and I couldn't really recall everything besides the handsome stranger that I danced with. I had no recollection of what happened between us last night and neither did I remember his name. I did remember him asking me out which was odd since not many men found me attractive. When I squinted my sluggish eyes open they were greeted by the rays of sunlight that peeked in through the thin drapes. I rubbed my eyes and got out of bed. I looked over at the sleeping form across from me then at my clock on the wall adjacent to the bed. My eyes grew wide when I realized it was already past eight in the morning and I had work. I picked up my pillow and knocked
Carter's PovShe was an Angel in my eyes. The most beautiful creature I've ever set eyes upon. Her caramel skin was so soft under my fingers and her chocolate brown eyes melted my soul. I couldn't get enough of her intoxicating scent. The way her body was pressed against mine in the car got me so aroused I wanted to claim her there and then but I remembered she was just an innocent girl.I couldn't bring myself to ruin that. I had hurt her deeply once when I left years ago and I couldn't afford to do it again. I could sense her arousal as she grind her waist against my hard rod. It was a sight to behold. A growl emitted from the back of my throat as I watched the innocent girl work wonders with her hips. I tried to refrain from touching her but my hands had a mind of their own and they found their way to her glorious waist. She looked even more angelic when she needed something and I knew she wanted my cock. That was something I couldn't give her. She was a delicate white flower an
Allessandra's POV We were seated at a booth that was close to the window of the shop. I awkwardly fiddled with my fingers and chewed on my bottom lips. I stared out the window at the couples that passed the cafe. I could feel his blue eyes piercing through my soul. There seemed to have been some form of tension that billed up in the room. His hands landed on mine tugging me from the trance that I was trapped in earlier. My stomach did a flip and jolts of electricity traveled up my spine. I pulled my hand away from his and awkwardly laced my fingers under the table. He looked at me with a puzzled expression on his face. " Is something bothering you." He inquired. I shook my head and smiled weakly at him. " Not at all." He smiled and handed me the menu. I took it politely and muttered to him. His eyes lingered on me for a while before they diverted to the menu he had in his hands. "They have coffee in many flavors so feel free to choose what you like." My eyes skimmed over the
Allessandra's POV I fiddled with my fingers as I stared at the colorful stars that lit up the sky. The silence between us was defening. I felt as if he was expecting me to say something to kill the silence that ensued but my mind was like a blank canvas. I was also like a time ticking bomb. One wrong move and Malcolm would go running for the hills. One thing for sure was that I did enjoy the day with him. I felt as if for the first time in my life I did something meaningful except for getting a job. I know Holly would be on my heels about what happened between me and the handsome man and I was eager to spill the tea. He was such a gentleman the entire day and he changed my perspective of all men on a hold. He proved that good men did exist in the world. I peeked over atthe handsome man who was busy staring out of space as if his mind was elsewhere. I shuffled a little in my seat to catch his attention and it did work. His deep blue eyes landed on me with a worried expression.
Carter's Pov Saying I had a wonderful time with Allessandra was only an under statement. She was just a constant reminder of what I couldn't have. That would be her gorgeous body. I wanted to explore every inch of it. I wanted to show her how much I wanted her in my life. My wolf wanted to claim her as his. He wanted to leave a mark that would show other men that she was mine. Allesssandra had so much effect on me. It was a very unique feeling whenever we were both in the same room. I have never burned so much for a woman the way I do for her. If only I wasn't this fucked up individual. I hated that I had to lie to her once again. This time i'm in so deep, im sure the damage cannot be undone. But the heart wants what it wants, so did my wolf as well as me. Now that I almost have her, I would never loose her again. I refuse to make a fool of myself again. I deserve to be happy and she was my happiness. I am willing to do anything to keep that happiness. My entire being wanted to
Allessandra's POV I shut my room door and slid down on the floor and release a breath I didn't know I was holding. I was exhausted from another long day at work. I was excited the day ended and I got the chance to hide away in my room. I have been like that for the past week. I wasn't sure what or who I was hiding from. I did know I was avoiding Malcolm at all cost. That man was no good for my fragile heart. I was dumb enough to let Carter there and he broke it to shards. I wasn't about to allow Malcolm there. At the rate that he was going I was sure that was his intentions. I was awre we couldn't control who we fell for but in this case I knew if I tried hard enough the feelings I had for him would subside. I just had to give it time. Some how he was like a plague since he never left my mind. It was as if he was there to stay despite not being invited. Despite me having feelings for Carter, Ive never experienced any sensation that I did when I was with Malcolm. The man was a li
Alessandra's POVI knew Malcolm was hiding something from me but I could not pinpoint it and I was in no place to inquire about it. The last thing I want him to do is feel as if I was a clingy and obsessive girl. I was sort of happy that I was his mate but this wasn't the kind of excitement I was hoping to have. I should have been head over heels. He didn't even wait to see me off when he dropped me off at Holly's house. He sped off like a bat out of hell and I couldn't help the feeling that overwhelmed me. I entered the house and avoided all of Holly's probing questions. I took a long shower and allowed the warm water to sooth my muscles and wash away all my worried. It did help with distracting me for the time being but after my shower I found myself thinking about him again. I towel dried my hair and wore my pajamas and an oversized t-shirt. I hopped onto bed with Holly who waited up with a wide grin spread across her face. Behind the smile I could tell that she was hurting an
Carter's PovI hated the fact that I lied to Allessandra's face. She deserved so much more than a lying sack of shit like me. I couldn't help but lie to her though. I wanted her and I couldn't live with the thought of knowing I allowed another man to claim her as their own. I was aware that nothing good could come from what I was doing to her and I was only digging my own grave but I couldn't help but hope that there was some way I could clean up the mess that I just caused. I was hoping that her reaction to what I said would have been different. She seemed unfazed. I wanted to tell her more about who I was but I couldn't bring myself to tell her the truth. I knew I had to tell her soon before she found out. I knew whatever stayed in darkness must come to light. I wanted tonight to turn out better. I wanted to make her happy but all I do is fuck things up. I was playing with fire once again and I knew I could get burnt badly if I wasn't careful, especially when it came down to Ava
Alessandra’s POVI could not believe the words that fell from his sinful lips. Was this true? How was that possible?I was a wolf-less child, there was no way that could happen. I was quiet the entire ride. I did not know what to say to Malcolm. None of what he said made sense to me. Why couldn’t I feel anything if what he said was true? I was so lost in thoughts the entire drive that I did not realize he wasn’t taking me home. He drove down a dirt path and then the car came to a halt. He got out of the car and came around the passenger’s side to help me out. I was still lost for words when he took my hand and guided me towards a cliff where we could see the entire city. It was a picturesque sight since it was dark and we could see all the different color lights.The breeze that blew was cold and goosebumps started to erupt on my skin as I stared into nothingness. Malcolm threw his jacket over my shoulders.“Are you going to say anything to me Alessandra?” He asked and I could tell th
Allessandra's POV The dinner date with Malcolm did go well. He was sweet enough to take me to a very exquisite restraunt and treated me with a good meal and expensive wine. I wasn't more thrilled to spend the afternoon with him. He was fun to hang out with but apart of me just wanted to crawl over the table and be a bad little girl for once in my life. I didn't know where that thought came from. I just wanted to do something dangerous and sinful. The way he watched me with his deep blue dangerous eyes did something to my body that I had no control of. I could feel the goosebumps erupting on my skin and my panties were soaked with my juice. I couldn't take my eyes away from his sinful lips. I wondered what it was like to kiss them again. How would it feel to have his lips elsewhere on my body besides my lips? I bit my lips when my direction landed on his skillful fingers. They were long and slender. Those were the fingers that massaged my clit. They brought me to my peak. I won
Allessandra's POV "ouch." I winced as Holly plucked the hair from my eyebrows. "Stay still." She scolded me. "I want you to look perfect for this." I rolled my eyes at her. "He has seen me in my worst state and he likes that just fine. So why do I have to look perfect for this one date?" I asked her. "Because men like pretty and once he sees you he can't take his eyes off your glorious body." She told me while she moved her hips in a seductive way. I laughed at her gesture and shook my head. She was something else. "I know after tonight he will be desperate to touch you." Holly continued. "Since you are too chicken to ask for what you want." I bit on my lips. I wasn't scared to ask for it. I asked him the first time we met each other and he turned me down and I gave him an invitation to my body multiple times. Perhaps he was waiting on the right moment or he wasn't into me at all. We hardly did anything besides discuss our dislikes and our likes over the past month. I di
Allessandra's POVThe thing Holly never understood about me was that when it comes down to a certain things I never gave up. Our friendship was one of those things that I would never give up on. Not that she was asking me to but at the rate she was going. I was convinced she was distancing herself from me once more. She never agreed to visit my house anymore and she didn't want to have me around but I was persistent so she agreed that I could sleep over. She still never opened up to me about what happened why her mate rejected her and she never talked about what happened between her and my sister at the night club. I knew this was a touchy topic but I at least expected her to open up to me about it. That's what friends do. I told her everything about me. Probably not everything since I hid the steamy details about what happened between me and Malcolm. But I tried to be as honest as possible so I was expecting the same level of honesty from her. We were cozy on the leather coach w
Allessandra's POVIt's been over a month since the incident where Holly's mate rejected her. I haven't summoned the courage to ask her who the scumbag was and she never opened up about what happened. I could tell that she was devastated and I didn't want to be the cause for brining up any bad memories. I could tell that she was coming around since she was more jovial but there was something off about her mood. As for my relationship with Malcolm, it was a complicated one. I didn't know what we were and I wasn't about to ask him that question. I did enjoy spending my time with him but what we did became a routine. We would visit the tree house, eat, talk and snuggle with each other. I found that romantic but I still didn't know anything about him. I felt as if there was more to him than he was letting on. Don't get me wrong, I liked what we did every night but I felt as if what we had was a secret. I felt as if he didn't want anyone to see us together. As if he was ashamed of me or
I was so happy when Holly returned for work. Seeing her in the state that she was in broke my heart. She was once happy and cheerful but now she looked like a breathing corpse. Her skin was pale as if she hasn't seen the sun in months and she looked ill with dark circles under her eyes. Seeing her in that state I knew she wasn't lying when she said she wasn't feeling well. I juat wished there was something I could have done to make her feel better since her was sad and gloomy. We did exchange a few words and that was as far as it went. I just felt as if she was shutting me out of her life and that was something I would never stand for. I just wanted to know what the problem was. I wanted to know who caused my best friend such a heartache so that I can stomp on their cold hearts. It was only then they would know the pain that they caused her. I wanted to tell her that I did know she found her mate but things didn't go as planned but I wasn't sure if she did indeed find her mate or
Allessandra's POVOver the past twenty three years of living on earth, i've never looked forward to anything the way I did when it came down to me spending time with Malcolm. Over the past few weeks my routine has changed completely. It would be work in the morning where I day dreamed about Carter and then my afternoons would be spent in the abondoned tree house or the park with Malcolm. We didn't do much besides open up about each other more. I found out he came from a rich family and that was all to it. He was a tough nut to crack and I felt as if I was dealing with a puzzle. He was a complete mystery to me but that didn't stop me from spending time with him. The thing that bothered me most was that he was a wolf. unlike me who would never be blessed by the moongoddess with a mate he would be one day. I couldn't help but feel as if he would slip through my fingers like sand. I did try to push those thoughts aside and savour every moment we spent together and it somehow helped whi
