By the time Cedric has returned, it’s almost late evening. He looks exhausted, and I half expected him to go straight to bed without bothering to see me. However, to my surprise, he pokes his head into my room and offers me a small smile.
“Sorry,” he says, his words quiet. “You’re already eaten and everything, right? I wanted to make something for you, but my duty took more time than I was expecting.”
I shrug. Although I try so hard to pretend I’m not bothered by his absence, the truth of the matter is that I am bothered. I’ve not stopped thinking about him and that woman, and I can’t understand why.
“It’s not like I’m your mother,” I responded coldly. “Now, if you don’t mind, I’d like to shower so I can get ready for bed,” I tell him without looking at him too much.
I don’t hear a response at first and assume he has left without a fuss. However, I
With my beloved's consent, I led Kyla back to my room. She is as flustered as always, yet her body subconsciously seems to know that we’re destined to be together. I hope this is a sign that she’ll realise the truth soon.When that happens, I hope she will accept me and we can go through the mating ritual with no issues. I’ll continue to be patient until then, but I wonder if she will let me go all the way with her before then.So far we haven’t and I haven’t forced her into anything. Making sure she is comfortable is the most important thing to me. Even though my body yearns for it all now.As soon as we get to the bathroom, I release her hand and turn the shower on. If she wishes to change her mind and go, then now is her chance. I won’t force her to bathe with me, but if she stays and doesn’t protest, then I’ll take it as a sign that she is fine with this.I glance over my shoulder to study her expression
I can’t believe I said that out loud! I had wanted to distract him and myself from what I feared might be inevitable sex but instead of something profound, I claimed my hidden desire so bluntly! Now he will assume I want to fuck him! What if he sweeps me away like a tidal wave of desires?Blushing hotly, I avoid eye contact for the longest time until I can no longer ignore my curiosity. Cedric hasn’t said a word in response to my outburst, but why?When I find the courage to meet his gaze, he has this look on his face. I can’t tell if it is smugness or amusement, but he looks like he is holding back whatever it is.I divert my attention away from him, flustered and unsure of what he is thinking. I’ve known no one that can make me feel this way before. It is almost like he is a tornado that has swirled into my life and left me in an utter mess of emotions.“S-say something…” I mumble. My heart is pounding so hard
I look upon my mate as she flounders with her words and what she wants. I know the bond is already there, but it isn’t so strong that she has caught on yet. That she wants to have ‘fun’ with me is a step in the right direction, but I’m not sure if she is ready for me to spill the beans yet.As I’m debating on my options, she distracts me with a passionate kiss. I can’t miss this opportunity to accept her lips, as who knows when she will go back to being cold towards me. I pray that doesn’t happen, and this is the start of her figuring out that we’re destined to be mates.Once she ends the kiss, I can’t help but find myself in the mood to do more to her. However, she looks over my body as though she is trying to debate with herself. I don’t want her to think she has no choice but to please me, so I gently brush her wet hair away from her cheek.“We don’t have to do anything else if you’
I never in my wildest dreams thought that I would suck a man off. Yet now that I have Cedric’s cock in my mouth, I can’t seem to get enough. I had briefly assumed I could make him melt in the same ways he could manipulate me, but that smirk of his told me otherwise.Even at this moment, he was the one in control. He was the alpha and I, his obedient little omega. It didn’t matter if I wanted to reclaim my title. To him, I belonged to no one else except him.That thought gave me a reason to pause. Was I really so obedient? Did I want to admit that I was now his? Of course not! And yet… that scent of his. The hint of sandalwood entering my nose drives my desires higher.I want more than just this.“You’re getting better,” Cedric murmurs. I can’t help but feel a little happy with his praise. I would have never in a million years thought I’d like to hear a compliment come from him. It makes me want to do
As soon as the morning sun hits my face, I feel every ounce of embarrassment wash over me. I hate how easily I give in to that man. Although he never went all the way with me, he still made me moan and writhe under his every touch.I wish I could vanish under a rock and never come out again. However, I’m not so lucky. I’m stuck here in this place. No wonder my body and mind have gone mad. I need to get out of these four walls and get some fresh air. That would bring back logic to my brain.However, I am ever the prisoner here.I feel Cedric’s arms pull me into his hold, and I don’t fight it. Wasting energy on futile things is no longer something I can be bothered with. If he wants to hold on to me, then fine. I’ll endure it. He’ll only get his way in the end, anyway. Right?I steal a sneaky glance at him from behind my hands and blush even more. Why do I keep finding him so handsome? I should hate him. Loath him for all
I almost cannot believe my eyes. Kyla is out of the packhouse and wandering around in the gardens. Though she isn’t alone, which means I can’t speak to her. I’m honestly surprised Cedric has allowed her outside of that room. Is this a sign Kyla has submitted to his rule finally?As I sneak closer, I study Kyla’s expressions. She doesn’t look obedient to me, but she doesn’t seem like she is ready to flee. She must be biding her time and hoping to get some freedom before she can plan our escape. I’ve gotten a better lay of the land outside of these walls, which means if we attempt a getaway today, she would need to rely entirely on me.While doable, she may want to wait longer. Especially given that Cedric hasn’t left her alone at all. There’s no way we can escape with him nearby. Even if we ganged up on him, he is a formidable foe and can rally his pack against us. And I know my Kyla would prefer to escape without bloodshed.It feels like Cedric will never leave Kyla’s side, as they sp
I’m glad I could get all my work done quickly today. I wish I could have taken Kyla with me so that she could learn how I do things around here, but I didn’t want to risk her to the others who have yet to find their mate. That no one has tried to jump her yet is only because of my quick thinking.I’m not sure what surprises me more. That my mate ended up being Kyla, or that a leader like us can also smell so good. I assumed only omegas could go into heat, but another leader? Is it because she is my mate? Is that why?I spot Kyla close to where I left her and hasten to be beside her once more. I almost want to kiss her in the open, but I can already tell by the scowl on her face that such an act of affection will not be appreciated. Instead, I stand as close to her as I can physically get without Kyla rejecting me outright.“Did you enjoy being outside?” I ask with a small smile. I’m sure she would have preferred more freedom,
I still can’t believe he did that! And almost got caught, too. Is he mad? I’ve never met a man who would openly flirt like that with their prisoner. Granted, I’ve never been a prisoner to anyone else or had any myself, but this is beyond anything I can understand!I wait for my face to cool off, but even then I can’t say or do anything. Not with the omega here in front of us. She has said nothing, so maybe she didn’t see him, but if she has, then she might spread this around!What if Dereck hears about it?That would be my worst nightmare! I don’t want him to misunderstand the situation at all. So he can’t know that my body gives in to Cedric’s touches like that. Thankfully, all Cedric did was something minor, but he may even take something as simple as this the wrong way!I gulp hard and sneak a glance at Cedric. He has this amused look on his face again, and all I can think about is that I’m glad he

A few weeks later...Stretching out on the enormous bed, I almost don’t want to get up. However, before I can sit up, I am suddenly attacked by two small bodies as they jump up and down, calling out my name.“Luna Kyla! Luna Kyla get up!”I can’t help but laugh as I grab the corner of the quilt and spring it up and over the two kids’ heads. Their squeals of delight echoes through my ears, causing a wide grin to grow on my face.“Who dares to awaken the bed monster?” I ask in a playfully rough growl. As the youngsters squeal and squirm under the blankets, I can’t help but feel a small sense of relief that they can still laugh.After the last battle against Vukasin, we lost so many of our pack, and as a result, many children were orphaned. Although we couldn’t take all of them in, we have taken in these two little rascals and they have settled down as well as can be expected. The others have been
I would be lying if I said I hadn’t hated every moment of taking Vukasin’s life, but I had made the decision and could not back down once I had made it. I wanted to be seen as Cedric’s equal, as a leader, and not just his mate.As I helped drag Vukasin’s corpse through the street and back to the main battle. Cedric waited for me to stand next to him before he nodded. When I was ready, the two of us let out a victory howl together.As soon as the nearest pack members saw their fallen alpha, they stopped fighting in shock. Soon enough, the cry of victory echoed throughout the area. I just hoped Vukasin didn’t have a beta or gamma that would seek revenge at the loss of their leader.When silence fell at last on the battlefield, I gazed out at the remaining packs and saw we had paid such a heavy toll on both sides. I wasn’t sure what would happen now, but the biggest hurdle was over. The only thing left now was dealing with Vukasi
I can hear Kyla and Vukasin fighting one another, but my eyes still sting from the dirt that bastard flicked into them. It takes me a while before I can get them clear enough to where I can see them again. Though it still stings, and my eyes water each time I open them.Vukasin has dragged my mate down in front of him, and I realise that if I don’t step in now, he will slaughter Kyla. My heart aches at the thought and before the worst can happen, I charge forward, forcing Vukasin to back up as I stand protectively over my mate.The two of us snarl at one another and I realise Vukasin’s hind leg is bleeding, and he isn’t putting any weight on it. Kyla must have done some damage, which I am thankful for. This should give us an edge in battle.In all honesty, I’m surprised Kyla had the resolution to fight with Vukasin. It makes me proud of her, to see how far she has come as a luna. Having the strength to get past her trauma and to fight an
I knew it would be risky to do this myself, but I couldn’t find anyone nearby that would be a better fit for this task. Going back to find Dereck or Joey would waste too much time and we couldn’t afford to wait any longer. We would miss our chance to end this quickly if I messed around trying to find and free up someone stronger.I watched Cedric chase Vukasin until he could guide him in the direction I had suggested. I knew my plan would work. It just meant I had to be careful when blocking the opposite way. I was sure I could distract him long enough for Cedric to do what he needed to do, it was just a matter of making sure he couldn't slip past me easily.Darting through the crowd of fighting werewolves, I find my way out of the chaos. Finally, I reached the spot before Cedric and Vukasin could reach it. I have a couple of things to do before they get here, but it wouldn't take me long at all.Transforming back into my human form, I grab the large
This fight has gone on for far too long, but I hadn’t expected it to be so easy. Even with the others flanking our enemy from the other side, this isn’t a straightforward battle. Vukasin has escaped my claws once again, though he hasn’t gotten far from me this time. However, I now have to deal with one of his warriors before I can continue my battle with him.I’m starting to think Vukasin is trying to tire me out by forcing me to fight as many of his warriors as he can throw at me. It is a cunning plan. To make me so tired that he can beat me easier. However, I know what he is trying to do, so I do the same. I have a warrior battle with him in return.I have to hand it to him. Vukasin is a formidable foe. However, dragging this fight out like this only makes it worse for both sides. We’ve already lost a fair number of warriors each and I can bet more lives will be lost. That might be an acceptable sacrifice to Vukasin, but not to me.
The pounding of my heart would not cease. I was exhausted, but we couldn’t stop even after we fought back the enemy. Their regrouping didn’t take long either after the two I had distracted had returned. However, with Joey’s help, the group thought twice about renewing the fight directly.There might have only been four of us, but we were formidable in our own ways and the enemy seemed to have understood that. However, they were not about to give up and walk away. They hounded us with each movement on our way back to the other group. They gave us no choice but to fend them off again and again. At this rate, we would be too tired to be of any help to Cedric and the others.Joey once more forced the last of our pursuers away from us before backing into the safety of our small group. “We need to rest,” he told us as he looked towards Rohn. “But if we rest, they will hound us even more. How frustrating.”I followed his gaze t
As I turned the corner, it seemed Dereck had gained the upper hand on the ones attacking him, but Rohn wasn’t fairing as well. He was old, though still putting up a fight. However, I realised something was wrong. Had they injured him in the fight? Whatever the reason was, he seemed almost lethargic. That’s when I realised what the problem was.Rohn must have known his mate was near death when she left his side, but if he had known of the exact moment she had died, I wasn’t sure. I heard tales of that being the case before but had never experienced it. If one could know the moment their mate died, then I was sure Cedric was still alive.Feeling there was hope, I charged forward and helped Rohn with the foe he was currently dealing with. Dereck would be fine for a while, but the old alpha would not survive against this young warrior for much longer.Just as the enemy was about to strike, I barreled into their side, knocking them off balance tempo
I was sure I had seen my mate when the second group had flanked our enemy, yet now I couldn’t see her anywhere. I had forced Vukasin back against the others, but now he had gotten out of my reach. Yet despite that, the continuous fighting meant I couldn’t leave to find out where Kyla had run off to.Sinking my fangs into the neck of a rival warrior, I waited for them to stop squirming before I pulled my maw away again. We had the advantage, and I knew we would win, yet not seeing Kyla anywhere had me distracted. Was she safe? Or perhaps she had been forced to retreat for now?And speaking of mates, where was Dereck? He should have been with the group, too. I hastily looked around, but couldn’t see him anywhere either. Two others were missing as well. The old luna and alpha from Silver-Sun pack. Has something gone wrong? Did Kyla get in trouble and they had gone to save her? Or was Kyla the one trying to save them?I wanted to leave the fight to
