NADINEI didn't notice I had been watching Sara change in and out of outfits for the past thirty minutes until Sara had checked her phone and screamed that we were running late.It was the day for sightseeing at the tourist centre Sara had gotten us tickets for. I had contemplated on what to wear and settled on black pegged pants and a plain mauve T-Shirt - which was part of what I had gotten at the store - before Sara had pulled me into her room to help her dress up.As we went on chattering and squeaking like teenagers, I couldn't help but notice how colourful Sara's room was, and when I meant colourful, I meant colourfully pink. From the bedspread and covers down to the seat cover of the chairs in front of her vanity mirror to the floor mat which shone pinkly on the ground, daring you to roam on it unless you are a princess. It was something out of a Barbie world. I looked at my outfit and chuckled. Way to go, Ken.Sara was haplessly rummaging through her wardrobe."I really do no
KAIShe was here, alright.And plainly dressed which I was not shocked at. Her beauty stood out as I immediately recognised her as I left the entrance.She was all looking all concerned until her eyes met mine and they widened.Sara's plan of successfully pulling Nadine to the Castle of The Alpha One had been fruitful. Argh…had I been the one proposing the idea, she would blatantly refuse and try to bury me with a killer stare before making her way to her room.I smirked harder as I approached her stricken face. She had irritation written all over it and it amused me the more."What are you doing here?" The question flew before I got in front of her. It was more of an accusation than a question.As I stood right in front of her, she crossed her arms in indignation, pursued her lips and looked up straight at me. I took a full glance at the features of her face which was beginning to heat up either from annoyance or from blushing. It was a mixture of both. My wolf rose on its hind legs
SARAI couldn't keep back my smile as I made my way back to the car. My plan had worked!I kept getting the thoughts of Nadine confronting me later but I shrugged it off to enjoy the moment. I had texted Kai we were on our way to the castle before leaving the house. He had left home, as usual, giving the notion he was going to work but he had been around the Castle all day.I feared Nadine would see right through me when I told her I forgot the camera that never left home. It just had to be perfect.As I opened the car door and eased my way in beside Adam, I let out a yippee and a heavy sigh escaped through my mouth. Kai had seen me at the entrance and I couldn't be more glad he complied with the plan. I caught a glimpse of them together before I went to the car.I couldn't help but grin seeing Nadine scowling and Kai smirking at her. I was a hopeless romantic. Despite knowing Nadine's primary presence in Eden City is to save us all from perishing, I could ask for a better mate for my
NADINEHe thinks he's a smart mouth, I scoffed as I walked towards the windowless gaps in the room.We were still at the top floor and I was getting more enthralled by the grandeur of the castle every minute. Antiques lined the width and breadth of the floor. If I weren't so passionate about architecture, I would have poked my nose into sculpture classes.Touching the antiques got me fervently riled up and I couldn't help but feel like I found something I had lost that I hadn't quite come to terms with in them. The atmosphere was breathable and tranquil and I would have been more comfortable if not for Kai's presence l which seemed to annoy me at the same time heating me up.I wondered if I had breathed at all since we started touring the castle.I had tried to restrain myself from talking about anything or asking him the multiple questions I had about the whole place. I had been wholesomely fascinated and my curiosity knew no bounds. But I failed when my curiosity attained its highes
NADINEThe kiss robbed me of my breath. One minute, I was admiring the view that was absolutely magical, and the next, I was being pulled into a strong pair of hands and body and my mouth was being devoured in a searing and most intense kiss that I've ever known. If I had thought that our first kiss was intense, then this was definitely putting it to shame. His mouth was fervent on mine, hungry, needy, and demanding and forcing mine into submission and compliance. His kiss incinerated everything and the only thing I was aware of was the fact that I was being kissed by this man like I was the source of air that he had been deprived of for so long. God! This man definitely know how to use his lips as he backed me against a wall, his tongue exploring and plunging deeper and deeper with his lips and teeth pulling and scratching and making me experience the kind of pleasure that I never knew was possible. Only from a kiss! I fleeting wondered just how pleasured he could make me feel
KAII was back at the council meeting after calling an emergency meeting right after I dropped Nadine off at the house. The atmosphere was immensely heavy and poignant.A rogue was on the loose.Everyone was talking at the same time but I paid no attention to any of them. My wolf has been seething ever since I found out a rogue was free on the streets of Eden City. There hadn't been one for a century now. It was surprising how he just emerged from nowhere.My first instinct had been to protect Nadine. I had rushed Nadine to my car which was parked outside the castle. My reflexes had been triggered by the screams and I had pounced right from the top of the castle. Nadine was frightened out of my mind and her horror-stricken face contorted with fear.I had made my way back to the castle and the castle manager had come rushing to my side. A rogue had made its way inside the castle and attacked tourists and murdered two of them. My mind went back to Nadine and I quickly assured myself tha
KAIThe drive back to the house was mentally draining for me. I kept on ruminating on the possible reasons a rogue could have shown on the grounds of the castle. The elders were right, Nadine had to be shown to the people of Eden if they were to truly believe they were safe.Nadine.She was pretty shaken when I drove her back to the house and dropped her off before heading back for the emergency meeting. She was silent the whole time during the flight and I could feel her dread.My hands gripped the wheel firmly as I thought of her having to witness such a gruesome event when I was right with her. I was sure she had seen the mauled bodies before we got to the car. Just when I thought we were getting somewhere, a miserable rogue had to pop up. I didn't realise I had been gritting my teeth till I parked the car at the garage.I relaxed and took out some deep breaths before heading into the house.I picked up Mama Teresa's and Sara's scents as I made my way towards the living room and th
NADINEMy last two brain cells had shut down the moment I hit the bed in my room after Kai dropped me off at the house. The events had happened so soon and I hadn't quite gotten a grasp of everything.The memories of the intense kisses and all I had allowed Kai to do to me up in the castle were quite visible in my subconscious but it was overridden by the ghoulish scene I caught sight of before Kai locked me in his car. Bodies were mauled at the feet of the castle and several shivers had run down my body when I saw them.I couldn't lie, I had felt a little bit of solace while in Kai's arms.With my knees bent close to my torso in the car, I could make out snippets from conversations of people running out of the castle. There were loud shrieks and bangs from people rushing all at once and they kept hitting the car intermittently.My anxiety levels rose with each bang. Some of the things I could make out from the rushed conversations had been there was a rogue on the loose and it seemed
