GABRIEL

I'm sitting in the living room, staring out the window, lost in thought about the upcoming council meeting and Laleh's arrival, when Kiara's voice cuts through my reverie like a knife through butter.

“So this thing with Laleh, when do you want her to leave?” Kiara asks, eyebrow raised.

I turn to her, scratching my head. "Well, I hadn't really put a timestamp on it. I figured she'd leave when she felt like it."

Kiara chuckles, shaking her head. "You're too nice, Gabriel. You do realize she's probably plotting something as we speak, right?"

I let out a half-hearted laugh. "Yeah, Laleh and her plots. She's like a villain in a bad soap opera, but she has a good heart. But, hey, she's been pretty quiet lately. Maybe she's turned over a new leaf?"

Kiara rolls her eyes. "Or maybe she's just gotten better at hiding her schemes."

We both laugh at that. I know Kiara's probably right, but a part of me still wants to believe the best in people, even someone like Veronica.

"So, how's Mia d

    Laleh's POVFUCK! Diana's eyes narrowed slightly as she leaned in, a curious glint playing in her gaze. "Where were you last night? I looked for you."I shrugged nonchalantly, hiding the smirk tugging at my lips. "Oh, you know, just dozed off in the movie home theatre. Those seats are way too comfy."Her pout was almost too perfect. "I missed you. We could have had so much fun, just like the good old days." The way she said it, all sultry and suggestive, made me want to laugh. I leaned back, crossing my legs. "Well, I'm here now. Ready for all the fun I can grab before heading back to my... noble quest of winning Gabriel's heart."Diana cocked her head, a playful smile dancing on her lips. "Your 'noble quest', huh? Sounds like a fairytale."I laughed, the sound light and airy. "More like witch hunting, with a dash of drama and a sprinkle of crazy."She joined in my laughter, her eyes sparkling with mischief. "So, what's the plan? Sweep him off his feet with your irresistible charm?"

    MIASitting across from Kiara, my hands wrapped around a warm cup of tea, I couldn't help but let out a sigh of relief. "You know, it's been oddly peaceful these last two days without Laleh around."Kiara chuckled, nodding in agreement. "Yeah, it's like we've had a mini-vacation from drama."I grinned, the humor not lost on me. "A 'drama-free' holiday, if you will. Though, knowing our lives, it's more like the calm before the storm."She leaned forward, her expression curious. "So, how did your chat with Gabriel go about me and Caleb?"I took a sip of my tea, choosing my words carefully. "Well, let's just say I think I planted a seed of reconsideration in his head."Kiara's eyes lit up. "Really? That's great! I mean, Gabriel can be so... you know."I laughed, knowing exactly what she meant. "Controlling?"She nodded vigorously. "Exactly! It's like he thinks he's the King of my love life too."I couldn't help but chuckle. "Well, technically he is a King, but I get your point. He just c

    GABRIELSitting in the sterile, impersonal waiting room, I felt every second stretch into an eternity. My leg bounced nervously, Kiara sat beside me."Gabriel, she's going to be okay," Kiara said softly, reaching over to still my jittery leg with her hand.I glanced at her, trying to find the same conviction in my voice. "I know, I know. It's just..." My words trailed off, the enormity of my fear rendering me speechless."It's just that you love her," Kiara finished for me, her voice gentle.I nodded, feeling the lump in my throat grow. "Yeah, I love her. And this waiting, it's killing me, Kiara. What if something goes wrong? What if I lose her?""You won't lose her, Gabriel. Mia's strong, and she's got a reason to fight – you and the baby." Kiara's words were meant to be reassuring, but the 'what ifs' continued to swirl in my mind."But what if... What if she doesn't wake up? Or what if the baby..." I couldn't finish the sentence, the possibilities too painful to voice.Kiara squeeze

    LALEH"So, Laleh, here's the plan," Leo began, his voice low and conspiratorial. "We kidnap Mia's child. It's the perfect way to get her back to me."I sat on Alpha Leo's plush couch, trying to look casual but feeling anything but. Alpha Leo, with his imposing presence and sharp eyes, was laying out a plan that sounded like it came straight out of a villain's handbook.I raised an eyebrow, trying to hide my shock. "Kidnap a baby? That's... bold."Leo leaned forward, his eyes gleaming with a mix of excitement and madness. "It's more than bold, Laleh. It's brilliant. Mia will have no choice but to return to me."I shifted uncomfortably. "And, uh, where do I fit into this 'brilliant' plan?"He grinned, a predator ready to pounce. "You're my inside woman. You get close to Mia, gain her trust, and then... snatch the baby when the time is right."I chuckled nervously. "You make it sound so easy. 'Snatch the baby.' Like I'm just picking up a loaf of bread from the store."Leo's grin widened.

    CHAPTER 51GABRIELI hate that Mia is in that state and there is nothing I can do about it. Just pacing back and forth of this room and the only thing I can think of is how I can just be there for her. I'm still pacing back and forth like a caged wolf when Caleb walks in, his face serious. The moment I see that look, I know I'm not going to like what comes next. "Gabriel," he starts, and I brace myself for impact, "I went to talk to the Council of Luna and Alpha. They're insisting the meeting is tomorrow. They demand your presence, or they'll rule in Alpha Leo's favor."I stop dead in my tracks, feeling like I've just been punched in the gut. "What?" I explode, my voice echoing off the walls. "They can't do that! Mia's in the hospital, for heaven's sake!"Caleb holds up his hands, trying to be the calm in my storm. "I know, I know. But they're not budging. It's like they've already made up their minds."I start pacing again, faster this time, my rage building with every step. "This i

    ALPHA LEOToday's the day, the kind of day that feels like it's been written in the stars. The plan? Oh, it's simple, really. With Gabriel off to play knight in shining armor at some council meeting, Mia's left all alone. Vulnerable. Perfect timing, if you ask me. But then, nobody really does ask me, do they?"Kyle, you're about as useful as a chocolate teapot," I mutter, rolling my eyes. Kyle's my right-hand man, or at least he's supposed to be. Lately, he's been more of a shaking leaf than a steadfast oak. Why can’t I get a more competent Beta like the one other Alphas are having, I am stuck with Kyle."She just gave birth, and her pregnancy was high risk. The baby is still in the incubator," Kyle says, wringing his hands like he's trying to squeeze water from a stone. His worry is evident and frankly, it's irritating.I lean back in my chair, steepling my fingers. "Kyle, my dear boy, have you ever heard the saying, 'Fortune favors the bold'?" I ask, though it's more rhetorical than

  • THE LYCAN KING AND THE SLAVE   COURT DAY

    GABRIELWalking into the courtroom felt like stepping into a boxing ring where the punches were legal jargon and the audience was a bunch of stony-faced council members. Caleb was by my side, looking like he’d rather be anywhere else. Can’t blame him; I felt the same.There they were, Alpha Leo and his trusty sidekick Kyle, standing like they owned the place. I braced myself for the inevitable.“Gabriel,” Leo greeted, his smile as fake as a three-dollar bill.“Leo,” I replied, my tone flat. Pleasantries with this guy felt like hugging a cactus.Kyle nodded at us, his smirk wide. “Nice of you to finally show up. Thought you’d chicken out.”Caleb snorted. “As if we’d ever give you the satisfaction.”The pleasantries were rapidly deteriorating, like ice cream in the sun.“So, ready to hand over Mia?” Leo asked, his voice smooth as silk but with a venom that could kill.I clenched my fists, feeling my inner wolf bristle. “Over my dead body.”Leo’s laugh was cold. “That can be arranged.”C

    ALPHA LEOI spotted Kyle milling around during the recess, looking like a lost puppy. Perfect. I stride over, my steps measured, my mind already three moves ahead."Kyle," I start, keeping my voice low, "you're off the hook for round two."He whips around, his face a mask of betrayal and anger. "What? You don't trust me to stand by your side? You think I'm weak, don't you?"I can't help the smirk that plays on my lips. Grabbing him by the collar, I pull him close, our noses almost touching. "Never raise your voice at me again," I hiss, letting my alpha aura seep into the air, thick and heavy. But then, I ease up, a smile cracking my stern facade. "But, I'll give you this; you've got guts talking to me like that."Kyle's eyes narrow, confused and wary. "What's this about, Leo?""Because, my impulsive friend, I've got a job that requires your... unique touch." I release him, stepping back, watching the cogs turn in his head.His posture shifts, interest piqued. "I'm listening.""Good,"

    MiaWatching Gabriel and our son Max playing in the yard, laughter filling the air, brought a sense of peace and contentment I'd never known before. Max, with his father's eyes and my stubbornness, was a living symbol of our love and all we'd overcome. It was moments like these that made all the struggles worth it."Remember when we thought dealing with rogue wolves was a challenge?" I said, leaning against the doorframe, a smile playing on my lips.Gabriel looked up, a grin spreading across his face as he scooped Max into his arms, making our son giggle with delight. "How could I forget? And let's not start on Alpha Leo and Laleh."I walked over, joining them in the grass, the memories of our past battles weaving through my mind like an epic tale. "It's been quite the journey, hasn't it? From enemies to lovers, from battles to peace."Gabriel set Max down, who immediately began chasing a butterfly, his laughter a melody in the afternoon air. "It's been more than a journey, Mia. It's

    CHAPTER 77GABRIELStanding at the altar, I couldn't wipe the grin off my face if I tried. The sun was shining, the birds were probably doing whatever birds do when they're happy, and I was about to marry Mia. I glanced over to my best man, Caleb, who gave me a thumbs up. I rolled my eyes. Trust Caleb to turn a solemn moment into a scene from a buddy comedy.Then, there she was, Mia, looking like she'd just stepped out of a dream. My heart did a funny little dance, the kind that would have embarrassed me if anyone could see it. The music started, and she began walking down the aisle. I swear, everything else just blurred into the background. It was just Mia and me, in our little bubble.As she got closer, I whispered to myself, "Don't trip, don't trip." Not the most romantic thought, but hey, I'm only a man.Mia finally reached me, and her smile said, "I heard that," without her speaking a word. We turned to face the person officiating our ceremony, and everything was perfect. Right u

  • THE LYCAN KING AND THE SLAVE   PLEASURE AND LOVE

    GABRIELI woke up to the feeling of Mia’s soft body pressed against me, her back fitting snugly against my front. My arm was secured around her waist in a tight grip and my face was buried in her soft, luscious hair. A pleasant feeling went through me as she made a sound in her throat and relaxed further into me. This was definitely the best sleep I’ve had in a long time, especially since I’ve been so stressed and busy.My chest did a double skip at the sight of us in the comfort of each other’s arms, looking like a normal, picture perfect couple. But we were both far from perfect. We both had our issues and that was what made us human. That was what made us complement each other perfectly—like fire and ice, Yin and Yang.My heart filled with warmth as I realized that I had fallen for Mia—undoubtedly and unintentionally— and this time much harder than I had ever fallen for anyone.At that exact moment, the thought of Kiara made its way back to my mind. The lines seemed blurred, as I h

    GabrielMia walked in, her steps soft against the floor. I could feel the tension she carried, like a heavy cloak draped around her. She sat beside me, her presence a comforting warmth."Mia," I started, not sure how to broach the subject of Caleb and Kiara. It had been gnawing at me, eating away the peace I so desperately sought in our sanctuary.She turned to me, her eyes searching mine. "Gabriel, we need to talk about Caleb and Kiara," she said, her voice steady but gentle.I sighed, a deep, weary sound. "I've told them both, Mia. I've made it clear. They went behind my back, against my wishes."Mia took my hand, her grip firm. "I know, Gabriel. I know you're hurt. But think about it, love. They found something in each other, something rare. Can't we, shouldn't we, be happy for them?"I wanted to resist, to hold onto my anger and betrayal, but the earnestness in Mia's voice, the genuine concern in her eyes, it made the walls I'd built start to crumble."They disobeyed me, Mia.

    GabrielI walked very close to her, toe to toe, and she looked straight up into my eyes expectantly. I lifted her bag up to her between our bodies purposely brushing the valley between her tits with my hand. "I rescued your dignity from Kiara." I showed her the bikini top and told her about the conversation that had occurred between him and me, letting her in on the cover story. I patted her ass and told her, "Your secret remains safe with me."She wrapped her arms around me in a hug and mashed her globes against my sternum. My hand was wonderfully trapped in her cleavage. I dropped the bag and kicked it to the side. I wiggled my hand around to cop a feel of one tit while my other hand gripped her firm ass. "My savior", she said into my chest. My Cock started to prod her stomach. She tilted her head back closed her eyes and pursed her lips. I leaned down and kissed her on the mouth. At the moment this encounter was about to turn that corner I wanted to reach, inopportunity knocked

    MIAI can't believe Gabriel and I are finally talking about our mating ceremony. It feels like a dream, one I've been scared to wake up from. But here we are, sitting on the edge of our bed, the moonlight casting a soft glow through the window, making everything feel a bit magical."So, what do you think?" Gabriel breaks the silence, his voice pulling me back from my thoughts. "Big ceremony or something more intimate?"I chew on my bottom lip, considering. Part of me craves the intimacy of a small gathering, just us and our closest friends and family. But another part, the part that's still a little girl at heart, wants the fairy tale. "Can we find a middle ground? Not too big, but not too small. I want it to feel special, but I also want it to be us."Gabriel smiles, his eyes lighting up in a way that makes my heart flutter. "That sounds perfect. Just like you."I roll my eyes, but I can't hide the blush that creeps up my cheeks. "We need to decide on a date," I say, trying to steer

    CHAPTER 72ALPHA LEOI paced back and forth in my private chamber, my thoughts a raging storm. The audacity of Mia's escape, taking Diana along, gnawed at me like a persistent wound. Kyle stood at the edge, his posture too relaxed for my liking, watching me with those eyes that always seemed too calm."We need to bring Diana back. And Mia," I declared, the words slicing through the tense air. "They think they can just leave, undermine my authority? It's unacceptable."Kyle shifted, finally breaking his silence. "Leo, maybe it's time to let this go. Focus on the pack. They need stability, not more chaos."Let it go? The suggestion inflamed me, fueling the fire that raged within. "Let it go?" I repeated, my voice rising, a growl threading through the words. "You think I should just forget the betrayal? They made me look weak, Kyle. Weak!"He took a cautious step forward, a mistake. "It's not about weakness, Leo. It's about choosing your battles. This obsession with getting them back—it'

    UntitledGabriel and I have found a habit of seeing each other in the other room because of Max. I didn't like keeping our relationship a secret but right now, but we just got back together and Alpha Leo is still grieved, that was the only way we could be with each other. He came into my room this night like he has been doing all through out.I lost every sense of reasoning when I gazed at him and trailed his eyes, he was staring at my breast, I wasn't wearing any bra and my nipple lines were visible from my silky dress."Just call my name," he muttered to me, his voice was hoarse and you can see how he longed for me. I was trying to fight every will in me to say no, no to him pinning me to the wall and having my body press to his. "Gabriel," I whispered and that was the tipping point for us, he took my lips into his, kissing me hungrily. He lifted me and placed me on top of the counter, While our lips parted for a split second to breathe, it was just like going underwater and com

    CHAPTER 70MIASitting by the poolside under the blanket of stars, the night air was cool and filled with the soft sounds of water lapping at the edges. Gabriel and I had found a quiet moment, a peaceful break from the chaos that seemed to constantly swirl around us. It was moments like these I cherished, where we could just be Mia and Gabriel, not Alpha and Luna or warriors in a never-ending battle."You know," Gabriel started, breaking the comfortable silence that had settled between us, "I've missed this. Just talking. It feels like it's been forever since we've had a moment of peace."I smiled, tucking a loose strand of hair behind my ear. "Yeah, life's been a bit of a whirlwind, hasn't it?" The understatement of the century, really. Between battles, secrets, and heartaches, 'whirlwind' was putting it mildly.He scooted closer, his arm brushing against mine, sending a familiar shiver down my spine. "I've missed you, Mia. More than I thought possible."Hearing him say that, so open
