NADINESomething wild and uncontrollable was happening stealthily between Kai and me and it was just too intensifying and electrifying to be stopped. The mind blowing sex was the magnet that held me onto Kai like he was a lifeguard.We were so unhinged and the marathon sex was everything I kept looking forward to. We made out everywhere and anywhere. His office became a brothel for our sex escapades, same as his room and mine when the need for him escalated and he was always damn ready.I craved his mouth and hands working magic on every corner of my body hovering, sucking, and doing all the things I wanted done on my body.At some point, I knew I had to convince myself it was just the sex, it had nothing to do with me having something more for him. I was simply fooling him to let his guard down. I reiterated to myself all the time,But my body was always badly aching to be sexually worshipped. And all I could see on Kai's face was a softness for me which I didn't see him show anyone
KAINadine was all I could think of every single moment, every day. Her mere presence made my heart pulsate more than intended and damn it, I wanted it to continue that way as long as she was in my arms.I was all over her, giving her the best fuck she had ever had in her life and I was pleased she was always satisfied and coming back for more.But a part of me wanted more than just the sex, a part of me wanted to share the emotional connection my heart had been yearning for since I met Nadine.But she wanted none of it, she was freaking hell-bent on me not moving close to her and snuggling her against me and telling her how much I was in love with her and needed her to be by my side for the rest of our lives.But she would rather eat dust than allow it to surface. No matter how she moaned loudly and took all of me in without resistance, no matter how explosive our climax was, she was done after that.She would put on a defiant face and don her clothes, giving me a dirty glare if I tr
ADAMIt was my second time losing yet another game to Sara. She was tired of Chess and promised me she could beat me in every video game.She was back after telling me she came around to thank me for the day she was down with cramps. And I didn't try to send her away.I welcomed her with some fries as she bordered on her episodes with cramps in college and back home. And I regretted that I hadn't been there to relieve her pain.For the game, I was allowing her to win."C'mon, you should have jumped over that hedge" She cried out as I intentionally knocked myself out. She was so apt with the gamepad but I knew I was better. What was the fun in winning if I had to see her feel bad?""I didn't see that fast," I quickly made an excuse.She kissed her teeth, "You're not a worthy opponent, when did you last pick the game?" She said as she unloaded several bullets on me, knocking off the remaining two lives of my character."Get a grip on yourself, I need to find you deserving of an oppone
SARAMy legs took a mind of their own as they kept racing nonstop towards the main house. I was entirely oblivious to some of the guards who were coming from the gym and looked surprised at me running.I flung open the front doors, my heart pounding heavily against my ribs and my entire body aflame with sudden enveloping heat.I dashed to my room in seconds and took a few seconds to breathe in before mindlessly taking off all my clothes.What exactly had that been all about? My mind was in total disarray of distraught thoughts and I was truly shaken at the whirl of emotions running course all over my body.I pulled myself together and went into the shower to cool the heat emanating wildly from my body. I touched my lips which still felt hot and swollen with warm tingling and immediately goosebumps appeared all over my body as the cold drops of water enveloped my entire skin.It had all been so sudden, me convincing Adam to come out to me and see me as a confidante.And the next thing
LEVII hastily walked up to Emily's front door and pressed the ring once. I looked around, hands in my pockets. Her windows were widely open and a faint soft melody floated out through them. Her car was also in the garage. She was definitely home.Seeing how she had almost run me over the other time with the car, she might be in no mood to entertain me but I wasn't here for that.She might have all the hate for me in the world just because I cared about her and told her not to wallow in self-loathing because of Kai.But something very important and terrifying had brought me to her doorstep that morning. Something I didn't think was ever going to surface again.And Emily had been the first person that had popped into my mind. Maybe it was because she was stringently connected to it or the urge to look out for her. I just couldn't place the hurried feeling that had enveloped me through the morning.Someone had indulged in one of the forbidden rituals in Eden City which was known for ris
EMILYAfter shutting the door on Levi, I released the breath I had been holding in since Levi informed me about someone invoking some dark magic.Immediately, a burst of eerie laughter resounded around the house. I turned back to see the man who was bent on tormenting me and blowing my cover.His round face was viciously scarred and his bald head made him a lot more sinister. His eyes were bloodshot and seemed to penetrate my soul anytime he set on them.He wore ratchet-looking pants with several patches and open holes which showed his seemingly scarred body. He was shirtless and looked menacing with slash scars all over his torso.The huge broken shackles on his feet clanged loudly as he moved his dirty feet around my living room.I had brought it all on myself. Knowing I was only in need of the materials for the ritual gave me an edge and I had dug into the archives of my wolf clan for the resurrecting ritual.Resurrecting the wolf rogues had been the best idea I could come up with
SARAIt had been two days after Adam had given me my electrifying first kiss and suddenly, he went MIA. I didn't catch him working out in the gym or sitting by the gazebos, working on his laptop.After dinner the other day, I had expected him to show up for breakfast the next morning but he had been nowhere to be found.And I couldn't dare to go back to his apartment, I didn't know exactly why but I doubted he would allow me in. An opportunity came for me to meet him when Kai came down for breakfast and asked about my preparation for school resumption. I had mentioned to him I was yet to get everything I needed. Without hesitation, he had mind-linked Adam to come take me to the mall to get my school stuff.My heart had lurched the moment he told me Adam was going to be driving me to the mall. We were both going to be alone in the car. I was both excited and scared at the prospect of being inside the same space with him.Everything about Adam to me had changed after the first kiss. I
ADAMEver since Sara had looked so wired and bolted out of my apartment, her lips, her scent, and her skin was everything I could think of. Every effort to get her off my mind proved futile.I cursed myself for daring to have a taste of her, how had I let my desire take control of me?Now I wanted more desperately.The sweetness of her tongue was exotic and for me practically obliterated, delirious for her whole body. Something wild began growing in me and it was only her that could fill the space, that could make my heated body calm.That kiss had been liberating but it had felt like the tip of the iceberg.I needed to feel her skin against mine again, wrap my arms around her curves, plant hungry kisses all over her body, and hold her body in worship while she moaned my name over and over again with her luscious lips.My mind couldn't focus on anything else aside from Sara and it hit me harder and harder. I had jerked off to her after she ran away from my apartment. I had been mad
NADINETwo years later…It was Mama Teresa's fifty-fifth birthday and we took the time to celebrate it by having a poolside lunch.Sara had taken her time in having her styled in a trendy organza outfit and insisted she did her nails. She was a professional at it now, exploring new designs and working closely with her favourite designer Emily had introduced to her.And now she was right here, carrying around my baby boy. Collins who was on his way to becoming a two-year-old.He was the cutest baby ever and hardly gave anybody trouble. He smiled at every given moment and was rarely cranky. He had an uncanny resemblance to Kai.When he had come out of me, I had held the most beautiful being I had ever set my eyes on and a little dimple had shown when he smiled at me.Kai's eyes had melted when he first beheld his son. He had cradled him and sat somewhere far away from him, simply staring at the little bundle of happiness in the Cruz family. Collins Cruz.Kai never stopped being the perf
LEVIAfter everything had settled down, I had just one goal. To get Emily.I continued sending her gifts and even though she wasn't rejecting them, she persisted in ignoring me. She still wouldn't return my calls and texts but I was unperturbed. I knew her, she was trying to admit to herself she wasn't into me so badly. Then she had started coming around to my place at late nights, pushing her body against me, and me having no total power to resist her.Every time we had had some mind-blowing sex, she was in no time to talk, and even if she was there, it was to tell me not to give meaning to whatever just happened between us after which she would storm out.I didn't want to be on a pure sexual vibe with Emily. I wanted more. I wanted love.In an attempt to keep riling her up, I stopped at one of her shoots and the moment I came into plain view, her eyes had risen to meet mine but she looked away immediately.It was an outdoor shoot for a footwear brand. And she looked mesmerising in
NADINEI never would have called myself a resilient lady until the issue with Lucas trying to become the most powerful wolf, not only in Eden City but also taking over the real world.And one sickening thing about the whole issue had been finding out Lucas was the one behind it. I could never have imagined.The moment I had woken up in a dark room when the abominable wind grabbed hold of me, he had watched me with the most sinister look I had ever seen.I remembered calling out to him and telling him to save me but he had grabbed me by the hand and shoved me down roughly instead The memories run a shiver down my spine every day.I could remember our conversation back at the bar months ago. It had been one of the many reasons I had decided to stay back at Eden.But it had all been a crafty ploy to get closer to me. The feeling of being used took a long time before it wore off me.Kai made sure not to allow me to watch his public execution the night after being rescued. He had been bent
KAI"Kai", Adam called my attention, apprehension corroding his face. I looked up from where I stood with Emily."It's up, the full moon is out" His voice was filled with dread. I felt my stomach knot even after Emily had told me something stronger than the mate bond could break the barrier and that is if I loved Nadine unconditionally.I knew I loved Nadine. I did with all my life.But I felt helpless, How do we go about it? I was lost in my solitude of thoughts, staring anxiously at the moon which had now risen in all its glory, its heavenly glow wafting through the entire City.The whole room was lit with its embers. And I silently prayed to the moon goddess as I stood there. Just then, Lucas' voice came cascading through the whole house again."It was a pleasure seeing you people work tirelessly, You are a very poor team, I must say. " He said mirthlessly before he gave out a screeching laughter, mocking us."Don't touch her, you madman" I roared, banging the walls and windows. I
KAIWe headed out for a hunt. The hunt for the maniac who took Nadine away from me.Adam had suggested going around the abandoned buildings on the outskirts of Eden City and the houses of the council members. It wasn't no Old Monroe, it was someone we all knew.I had been at the council meeting once when Emily told me about the involvement of one of them. I had tried feeling something, looking for just anything, any slip-up to get who it could be.I had them oblivious to the whole matter. It was better that way. I couldn't trust any single one of them. They all looked fatherly and greeted me warmly without no hesitation.Even Elder Will, who was always on board with conspiracy theories didn't look a bit like a madman. I gave up on reading their faces.Going to their houses now could tip the maniac off. If there had been note time before the full room, we could have run wires around their houses but it was not needed anymore. We only had less than three hours till the full moon came up
KAIMy eyes widened as her statement sank in. It was the last thing I was expecting to hear. My mind went blank for a few seconds as I stared into her face which was turning concerned.But she had been at the pharmacy days ago. But it hit me, she had brought a thin paper bag. And I hadn't bothered to ask her about it. Inwardly, I berated myself for not paying much attention ever since Emily told me about her visions.I felt helpless and wasn't even trying to get a grip on myself. And now a life was being developed in Nadine, a life we had both brought into living. And god dammit if some elder was going to prevent me from seeing my first seed.Nadine touched my face and shook me lightly. She must have thought I had relapsed into myself as I stood there, watching her with unmetered surprise."I'm pregnant, Kai" She reiterated before pulling my palm sliding it down her stomach, and smiling weakly,"I need to stay here and fight whatever is coming with you…We are going to be together,
KAII felt utterly helpless as the days surmounted, slowly leading to the next full moon. As each day passed without finding out who could be threatening Nadine's life, it had me becoming increasingly worried about her. I made the whole situation oblivious to her.I couldn't afford to get her nervous. She watched me closely and I knew she could detect something going on but she made no mention of it.And I was glad she didn't. I was mostly locked up in my study, a whole mind map laid over from the information I had just gotten about Nadine's ancestry.I had set up a contingency team with Adam, Emily and Levi. Emily was inherently valuable to the group, mostly because she was the one with the visions that could guide her into finding out the culprit.We needed her badly and she readily agreed to help. She came around to the house, exchanging pleasantries with Mama Teresa and Nadine with a look of guilt strewn over her face.When thoughts of the things she had done corroded my mind, I c
KAI My hands rimmed firmly on the steering wheel as we drove back home. And Emily's words corroded the entirety of my mind. Nadine immediately asked me what she had come for when I got back to the car. I shrugged and smiled at her,b3fkre squeezing her open palm as softly as I could. "It's nothing, she is just reporting some stuff on her job. You know she's a custodian." I replied, feeling guilty for lying to her. She let out an ohh and watched me pasely before I turned my eyes back to the road. From the corner of my eyes, I could see she was about to say something else but decided against it. I tried to bring up random conversations which she engaged in with me but I kept zoning out, my mind preoccupied with the looming danger that could affect the love of my fucking life in a few days if Emily was telling the truth. And I cursed under my breath. Emily had better be joking about this. I didn't need any more terrible occurrences happening again, not with Nadine again. Who the hel
LEVIThe colour on her face drained the moment she turned around and saw me. I smiled widely at her, ignoring Kai's scornful look behind her at the drama unfolding in front of him.I couldn't believe she had actually announced to Kai that I was her boyfriend. Inwardly, I was conflicted about whether she was trying to show Kai she was already over him or she really meant what she said."What are you doing here?" Emily said in a low tone which clearly carried hostility but I was untethered. I took her hand and pulled her gently towards me before wrapping an arm around her slim waist, an action causing shock to ripple through her body.And I knew my answer was somewhat in my favour.I hadn't been following her. I had not even seen her for days now but I was constantly sending her gifts at work and home.The situation had plainly presented itself when I was returning from work and I saw her car, one I could recognise anywhere, slide into Kai's company.I stopped and watched how she hurrie
