CALANTHA The night we had a one night stand as total strangers, I didn’t give Kaiden a blow job, neither did we do anything wild or intense. He had guided me, just as gently and patiently as he was doing now, and he had made love with me, as though careful so he wouldn’t break more than a hymen.And yet, that sexual moment had stuck to my head ever since then.Now, he was asking me to take his cock inside his mouth. I already knew this one was more tense than our first sex. And the thought of that excited me so much, that my pussy pulsed with wild need and sexual excitement.Slowly, I reached to touch his cock but his grip tightened gently in my hair, stopping me. My scalp ached a little, but not seriously enough to cause any pain.“No hands.” He warned, although his tone remained calm. “I need your mouth and tongue wrapped around me, sweetheart. We can back off now if you can’t…”Before he could complete his sentence, I leaned in and wrapped my lips around his cock.A sharp inhale
The pleasure was too much. Too intense. My body twitched involuntarily, trying to shy away from Kaiden’s mouth, but his grip tightened around my thighs, holding me firmly in place. Then came the sudden slap against my ass. Sharp and hot. Echoing through the room and straight to my soaking drenched core. I gasped, my back arching as a fresh wave of aching desire pulsed through me. “Stop running,” Kaiden growled, his voice low and possessive, a warning threaded in silk. “Or I’ll make it worse for you.” My breath caught in my throat, and I collapsed forward, my cheek pressing into the sheets, my body already trembling beneath him. I didn’t dare move again, not when the ecstasy he was giving me felt this devastating. By now, my nightie had already disappeared, discarded somewhere on the floor, and I was completely naked; bare and exposed before him. He ran his hands along the curve of my ass, kneading it gently, his touch both tender and sinful. Then he parted my legs again, spreadin
CALANTHA Finally, Kaiden crushed his mouth to mine, claiming my lips in a wet, messy, completely unhinged kiss. It wasn’t soft or sweet. It was raw, filled with need and fire. His fingers trailed across my heated skin, finding my breasts, cupping and kneading them with a kind of reverence that contradicted the filthy way his mouth moved against mine. I kissed him back hungrily, wrapping my arms around his broad, powerful frame, our mouths devouring each other’s moans, gasps, and every desperate breath like we were starved and feeding off one another. When he pulled back, my lips were swollen and tingling. Then, his mouth descended to my breast, latching onto one hardened nipple, sucking it into the warmth of his mouth. My body arched off the bed instinctively, a helpless moan escaping me as his teeth grazed it gently. I was losing my mind, spiraling fast. Every nerve ending inside me buzzed with anticipation. Kaiden switched to the other nipple, tongue swirling, sucking, then bi
KAIDENIf it weren’t for the way I could still feel her wrapped around me —warm, wet, and pulsing, I would have thought this was just a dream. Something my mind made up. Because this wasn’t supposed to happen. This was never supposed to happen.And yet, there she was. Still hovering over me, breathing hard, her breasts rising and falling with each breath. Her eyes looked down at me; bold, stubborn, and maybe just a little scared. And it was in that moment, that everything sank in.I had just been played.This was all planned from the beginning. Everything. Her walking into my room in the middle of the night, sleeping in my bed, touching me, kissing me, pressing her body against mine. It was all part of her plan. She knew I wouldn’t be able to resist her. She knew what she was doing.And now, she had exactly what she came for.My seeds inside of her.My entire chest tightened like someone had gripped it with a fist. The shock turned into anger. Burning, violent anger that shot through
CALANTHA“That’s just cruel! I can’t believe Kaiden actually did that to you!” Eloise burst out, standing up from my bed, clearly furious. She and Nyx had rushed over as soon as I texted them early this morning. I told them Kaiden wanted me out of the packhouse first thing today.I hadn’t slept at all last night. All I did was cry, my hands clutching my chest like I was trying to hold my heart together. The pain was sharp and deep. Nothing like what I felt when Ryker broke my heart. I thought that had been the worst pain I had ever felt. But that was nothing compared to this.This… was real heartbreak. And even now, as the morning light poured through the window, it still felt like I couldn’t breathe.While the girls helped me fold and pack my clothes into my suitcase, I told them everything. Every single detail about what happened between Kaiden and me last night. Even the truth behind our fake mating. Eloise was pacing now, shaking her head and mumbling under her breath. Nyx sat o
CALANTHA“You two know each other?” I asked, zipping up my bag and glancing at them.“Uh… yeah,” Eloise replied, her voice soft and a little breathy. The smile on her face hadn’t faded, and her eyes were still on Bradley. “We met at the ball the other night. He was… aggressively flirting with the balcony railing.”Bradley chuckled, rubbing the back of his neck. “You didn’t have to call me out like that.”They both laughed quietly while Nyx and I exchanged a glance. Nyx narrowed her eyes, studying them.“Wait… are you two crushing on each other?” She asked, tilting her head to look at them more intently.That made me laugh, for real this time. A small, honest laugh that felt like a tiny break from the sadness weighing me down.“Oh, Nyx, you’re faster than your own shadow,” I said, shaking my head. “But it wouldn’t work. Bradley’s dating the Gamma.”Nyx blinked. “Oh.”Eloise’s smile faltered a little, her lips pressing into a flat line. I noticed the flicker of something in her eyes th
CALANTHA Bradley drove me, Nyx, and Eloise to the new apartment he had found for me. It was in a tall, high-end building, modern and luxurious. Just like he promised, the place was beautiful. It was spacious and elegant, with a huge floor-to-ceiling window that felt like a wall of glass, looking out over the entire pack.It was perfect. But the ache in my chest wouldn’t let me enjoy it.Together, Bradley and the girls helped me set up the place. We didn’t go overboard. Just the basics: a couch, a center table with a rug, some wall art, a few plants. It was simple, but cozy.By the time we were done, it was almost noon. Bradley offered to drop the girls off before heading back to the packhouse. Before she left, Eloise handed me the emergency pill we had talked about earlier.“Take it right away,” she said, placing the sealed packet in my hand. “If more than 72 hours pass, there’s a risk you could get pregnant.”“Thanks, El.” I whispered, pulling her into a grateful hug. All three of
KAIDEN“Just like you asked, I’ve assigned two private security officers to watch over the Luna from a distance,” Bradley reported, standing in front of the dining table where I sat, slowly picking at my food. “They’re highly trained, professional, and personally recommended by Hana.”I didn’t respond right away as I continued to eat. The food tasted like nothing. I was only eating to keep my strength up after my beast had left me completely drained.“Make it five.” I said flatly, still chewing slowly, eyes on my plate. I didn’t bother looking up at him.“Understood, my King. I’ll take care of it.” Bradley replied, bowing slightly.I finally leaned back from the table and gave a small signal. The servants standing by moved quickly to clear the dishes. Bradley’s eyes followed them, then turned back to me with concern.“But… you barely touched your meal, my King.” He said carefully.“I’m full.” I muttered, wiping the corners of my mouth with a napkin.He didn’t leave. Instead, he stood
KAIDENAs my car rolled to a stop in the packhouse parking lot, I let out a deep sigh. Just being here made my chest feel heavier. The weight of pack duties, my mother’s constant pressure, her annoying obsession with picking a concubine for me,…. it was all waiting for me inside.And the one person who made it all feel bearable wasn’t even here anymore.The thought of her hit me again. That sharp ache in my chest showed up just like it always did every time I thought about her since she left.My mind drifted back to earlier today, at the academy’s sport field. I could still see her standing there, those big angry olive green eyes locked on mine. She throwing my necklace back at me as her words cut me deep.At first, when she had confronted me, I had been so shocked that I couldn’t speak. Immediately, I figured she had just found out about the concubine situation. And for the first time in a long while, I felt powerless and didn’t know what to do. I didn’t chase after her. I wanted to
CALANTHAI wiped at my tears as I hurried back inside the school building, quietly sobbing. Thank the gods, the hallways were empty because everyone was still out on the field. At least no one would see me like this, looking broken and miserable.I headed toward the hallway where the lockers were. I needed to grab one of my face wipes and clean my face before the dried-up tears made me look like a mess.I froze as I heard voices echoed from around the corner, and I slowed down, moving closer to the wall. Peeking out carefully, my heart skipped a beat when I saw that it was Eloise and Cross.They were standing near the lockers, facing each other, and it looked like things were getting tense. Not scary enough for me to jump in just yet, but definitely not the kind of conversation you wanted to interrupt either. Still, I kept my eyes on them, just in case things went south. From what I have learned, Cross wasn’t exactly someone you could trust.“I told you to stop coming around me! Why t
CALANTHA Alright… here goes nothing. I stepped onto the track with the rest of the girls, trying not to look like I was already dreading what was about to happen. From the far end, I saw Nyx flash me a thumbs-up with a quick smile. I returned the gesture, even though we both knew it was pointless. There was absolutely no way I was making it through this race. “You’ve got this, besties!” Eloise called from the sidelines, clapping like the proud cheerleader she was. Then the starting gun went off. Before I could even blink twice, most of the girls had dashed ahead while I was still trying to figure out how to move my legs fast enough without tripping over them. Even Nyx was ahead of me athough judging by how others passed her too, I figured we were both pretty hopeless. “Come on, Cal!” she called over her shoulder before focusing back on the track and picking up speed like her life depended on it. Meanwhile, I felt like I was jogging more than running. My lungs were already com
CALANTHAToday marked the official start of the Wolfville Blood Games trials. Because of that, our school schedule was split in two. Mornings were for regular classes, and the afternoons were reserved for tournament activities.As soon as the second half of the day arrived, we were told to change into our sportswear and head straight to the school field. Honestly, I didn’t want to be here. I had no interest in joining the tournament, but I had no choice. It was mandatory for everyone between the ages of eighteen and twenty-four to participate in the trials. I didn’t complain though, because I already knew I wouldn’t make it past the first round.While the P.E. teachers guided us through warm-ups, I stretched my arms and casually looked around. That was when my eyes landed on Kaiden.He was stretching a few feet away, and for a second, I felt everything around me pause.The early afternoon sun lit up his dark coffee-brown hair, making it shine a little. His strong muscles shifted und
LYSANDRA“Welcome back, Miss.” Gia greeted with her usual warm smile as she helped me take off my backpack.“How was school today?”“Boring, like always.” I sighed, letting her take the bag from my shoulder.Gia had been my personal maid since she was eight, and over the years, we had grown close. More like best friends than anything else. But she never dropped the formal tone. Maybe it was because my mother never liked it when she did. Even when we were little, one disapproving look from my mother was enough to keep Gia in line.“You know,” Gia said with a soft laugh as we walked through the entrance of the mansion, “most top students love school. But you? You're a mystery.”I gave her a small smile. “I know, right?”But the truth was, my grades weren’t really for me. They were for my mother. I worked hard, stayed on top, played the perfect daughter just so she would look at me with even a hint of approval. That was the way I had lived my life.As we reached the foyer, I saw my moth
KAIDEN“Ivy has been the top student in our pack’s academy since she was a child,” Councilman Leonard said proudly. “She even started her own charity to support the less privileged in our pack. She’s quiet, loves her books, and always keeps to herself.”“Really?” My mother let out a soft laugh at his words. “Then she truly sounds like the perfect match for my son.”As they went on talking about the idea of Ivy being the best concubine candidate for me, I kept eating my food silently, not bothering to join their conversation.We were all seated around the dining table—my mother, Councilman Leonard, Ivy, and me. I noticed Ivy sneaking shy glances at me while she quietly ate her food, but I didn’t look back at her. The only time I had actually looked at her was when she first walked in with her father.She was beautiful, no doubt. Tall, slender, with curly blonde hair. But nothing about her stood out to me. Not the way Calantha had.And that frustrated me.No matter how much I tried to m
CALANTHAEloise and Nyx honestly felt like gifts from the gods. With them around, I barely had time to feel sad or think too much about Kaiden. We had a cozy movie night, played silly games, went shopping, and even stopped by the amusement park on our way back. Before I knew it, I was laughing again. And for the first time in a while, I let myself enjoy the moment, pushing all the pain and heartbreak to the back of my mind.Before long, Monday arrived. Since both Eloise and Nyx were still staying over at my place, we decided to go to the academy together. Eloise drove, blasting loud music from her car speakers while Nyx and I sang along at the top of our lungs, laughing like kids.When we reached the academy, the hallway was packed. Students stood in big groups, all crowding around one side of the wall. Everyone seemed excited, trying to catch a glimpse of something.“What do you think it is?” Nyx asked, her eyes scanning the crowd around us. We heard a group of girls squealing in e
CALANTHAThe weekend came and it sucked. I was lying on the couch, surrounded by junk food wrappers, eating popcorn straight from the bucket, and staring blankly at the ceiling. I had been bingeing on snacks and doing absolutely nothing for the past few days, stuck in a haze of sadness and confusion. Somewhere in my head, I knew I should probably get up and do something useful, but I just couldn’t.I told myself it was post-breakup depression. Even though Kaiden and I weren’t exactly real mates, the pain still felt real. Maybe that was what made it worse. Falling so hard for someone who never truly claimed me. Pathetic, isn’t it?It still didn’t stop the sudden bursts of tears or those awful waves of emotion every time I thought about him. I couldn’t believe he actually let me go so easily, like I meant nothing.And just as I was spiraling again, my phone buzzed beside me. I grabbed it half-heartedly, expecting a random notification, but it was a message from our friendship group
