I turned around and saw Adrian pulling out his clothes from the closet and making his way to the bathroom. I heaved a sigh and then went to the closet to place my clothes inside.After a while, the door to the bathroom opened. I turned around and saw Adrian in casual clothes.He was wearing gray sweatpants and a black t-shirt. I realized I was seeing him in casual clothes after a very long time.While he was using a towel to dry his wet hair, he made his way to the dressing table. He looked at himself in the mirror while wiping his hair.I was curious about when he started to give so much attention to his looks. I had never before witnessed him paying such close attention to the mirror. In the past, he was a workaholic who never stopped burying himself in his work. Perhaps she did not know much about him because he did not return home very often."Am I so handsome that you can not tear your gaze away from me?"I looked away when I heard his arrogant words. I could not help but mock hi
I was about to scold Adrian but prevented myself when I saw Amanda walking out of the kitchen with dishes.A smile appeared on her face as she set the table. I glanced over at her and smiled briefly before taking a seat next to Noah, two seats away from Adrian."Mommy, sit with dad."I was confused. Did Adrian teach them to say these things? They were showing a lot of support for their father around these days.I shook my head and got up from the chair I was sitting in. I walked over to the chair next to Adrian and sat down beside him.When I saw my children smiling, it helped me to relax.'I should not forget that I came here for them,' I reminded myself.After Amanda had served us, we started eating. I turned my attention to Amana and said,"Come sit down with us at the table."The moment she heard that, her eyes widened, and she immediately shook her head. "No, I can't. How can I sit at the same table with Alpha?"I could tell that she had a great deal of respect for Adrian. Becaus
"Did you get there safely?" Max questioned me as soon as I spoke.I smiled while staring at the ceiling. Due to the moonlight that was coming in through the window, I was able to see the ceiling."Yes, I arrived here safely. What are you doing?""Nothing much. I don't know how everything suddenly messed up."I frowned when I heard him. "Why?""I told you that there was some work that came up. Alpha told me to accompany him in another pack. Now I have to depart from my pack and go to another pack.""Why so suddenly?" I asked in confusion."I have no idea, Natalia. The other pack's Alpha called me to meet with him. Maybe he has some health issues."I could tell he was tired. I remained silent for a while."Are you still on the phone, or did you fall asleep?""I am listening."As I mumbled that, I noticed Adrian getting up from the couch.He walked toward the door, opened it, and then exited the room with the door slammed shut.I flinched at the loud sound. Since the room was silent, Max
I pushed Adrian's hand away from my lips. I tried to sit up but got hurt when my forehead bumped into his."Ugh!"He immediately moved back, and I sat up.He sat beside me on the edge of the bed and rubbed my forehead. "Oh, oh, I'm so sorry. I didn't know you would get hurt."I glared at him under the slight light of the moonlight. I could not see his expression.I pushed his hand. "Go away.""Let me see.""Don't touch me. Keep your distance from me.""I was jus–""No, go back to your couch.""But–""Now."I pointed him to the couch. He heaved a sigh and then returned to his couch.I lay on the bed and muttered,"This man came here just to disturb me, huh!"I said it loudly so he would hear me. I then sent a message to Max that I was getting sleepy. He told me to sleep well.The following morning, the hotel organized a tour package for us because it had been pre-arranged with the hotel reservation. Amanda remained inside the hotel while the four of us went outside. She said she felt a
Third POV“Accept it.”“Accept it.”“Accept it.”"Mommy, please accept the rose.""Yes, Mommy."As couples around them gathered and cheered for accepting the rose, Aria and Noah also requested their mother.Natalia looked around her and felt that she would have to accept the rose from Adrian even if she did not want to. Otherwise, it would create a scene.She wanted to leave the place as soon as possible because now people were paying attention to them. If someone recognized Adrian, she believed that they would post it on social media, and everything would spread like wildfire as new rumors, which was something that she did not want at all.She turned her gaze to Adrian, who was looking at her with a pair of eyes that were filled with hope.She looked away from him and quickly snatched the rose from his hand.Everyone clapped their hands together in unison after seeing that. Adrian smiled at Natalia and thanked the old woman.The old woman glanced over at Natalia and gave him a slight
In the moment that Natalia's body landed on Adrian, he turned his gaze to Natalia. Her face hid on his neck as if she were still shocked by the pull, and she did not move at all. He could feel the warmth of her body. He sensed something when her breasts were pressed up against him.He tilted his head and whispered in her ear,"Are you seducing me, baby?"Natalia came back to her senses when she heard him. His deep voice, as well as the way her body felt against him, caused goosebumps to appear all over her body.She placed her hands on his chest and moved up to look at him. She had an angry face as she asked,"How dare you say that?"His eyes moved slowly downward until they stopped on her chest. When Natalia lowered her head, she realized that her cleavage was exposed. Almost half of her breasts were visible in front of him since the night dress moved with the pull."Pervert!"She tried to get away from his body, but a pair of hands wrapped around her waist prevented her from moving.
As soon as Natalia felt his lips on hers, her eyes widened. He moved his lips slowly over hers as he kissed her. His lips captured her bottom lip and sucked. Adrian was mesmerized by her soft lips and the sweet scent emanating from her body. Instead of giving her a hard kiss, he gave her a soft, delicate kiss. His hands rose up her body from her waist to her face. He cupped her cheeks with both of his hands and kissed her deeply. It was what he had been missing all the time. He could kiss her for the entire night. She was his woman. He wanted to keep her safe in his arms. He did not mind how much she remained angry with him; he believed he deserved her anger. However, he wanted to express his madness toward her. He loved her passionately, and he wanted to express it through his kisses. He licked her soft lips, flipped his tongue, and tried to push it into her mouth. He was longing for the taste of her mouth. He missed the way he made the woman breathless with his kisses. As
She pushed his chest, which caused him to move backward. He came dangerously close to falling onto the couch, but he managed to keep his balance."Not valid? Do you think I need to give you any validation? Who are you to me? Are you my husband? No, Adrian Miller. You are no longer anyone to me. Keep it in your mind as soon as possible."Adrian bit his tongue in anger. His tongue's blood, which had previously stopped, began to rush out again.“There is no reason for you to feel guilty if you are thinking that you are cheating on someone. Your destiny has chosen you to be with me. So if you are cheating on someone, then it is on me. I am your mate. So before you even consider any other man in your life, you need to give some thought to me. There is no other relationship in this world that can compare to the validity of this mate bond.”With a glare in his direction, Natalia took a step forward."What did you just say? I am cheating on you and the mate bond? Then what were you doing with
