The other men who noticed her resistance laughed at her. Natalia glared at them in rage."You are very hot and wild. I really like it. If you don't want me to take you here in front of them, then come with me," the man said.Natalia was an alpha. It was not like she could not defend herself against the men. But for some reason, she was unable to get her wolf to respond.Was it because of the drink she had? Did anyone spike on it?With a confused look, she gazed at the man.To her surprise, he got up from the couch and began to pull her along with him."Where are you taking me?" she questioned."A place where you can kill me in bed."Natalia did not stop the man; instead, he allowed him to drag her wherever he wanted. She thought she would really kill him tonight.The man walked out of the cabin and past the crowd. He brought her the area of the private rooms.Natalia's legs froze as she heard moans from the other rooms.She was losing her mind slowly, which stunned her."D-Did you do
With a groan, the man collapsed onto the floor. The glasses' flank was piercing his face, causing his entire face to bleed.He started crying aloud when Adrian kicked him in the manhood."A new member of my pack? Then I should discipline you."He gave him another kick. "Don't touch the woman who doesn't want to be touched by you."When the man fainted in pain, Adrian backed away. He turned around and saw Natalia staring at the man.Adrian walked up to her and grabbed her hand.She yanked her hand back and gazed at him."What brought you here? Go away."Adrian frowned at her when he realized how drunk she was. She was not in her right mind.He grabbed her wrist again and pulled her up."If I had not come, he—"She shoved his chest. She pointed at her finger at him and said,"I don't want a weak man like you. I would have killed that man anyway."Adrian felt pain in his arm when she pushed her. But he shrugged his shoulders and replied,"Yes, I did witness your powerful killing of the m
Inside the car,Natalia moved her head against the back seat. The scent emanating from the jacket that surrounded her body made her feel warm.Her eyes were closed and her lips were parted."I won't forgive you, Adrian," she kept mumbling.The man beside her focused his gaze on her. He was observing her every move.She sobbed while saying, "I hate you."He tightened his fists while looking at her. She unconsciously shifted her head to his chest.His hand lifted to move the hair strands away from her face. His eyes darkened when he saw blood on her cheek.He wrapped his arm around her and pulled her closer. He wiped the blood from her cheek and saw there was a cut on her cheek. He realized that when the man smashed the bottle on his arm, she got hurt that time.With his wounded hand, he rubbed her cheek with her thumb and murmured,"I'm sorry, baby. I never intended to hurt you."He leaned down and kissed her on the cheek. As if she could feel his touch and realized it was him, she tri
When Natalia heard Adrian, her eyes widened. Because her thoughts slowly turned to the reflection of what had happened in the club. She remembered how he came to the room and got these wounds.She gulped and cast a glance at him. She slowly rose from the bed and walked toward the couch.She sat on the couch, a little away from him. As she thought to pick up the box, she said,"I am only helping because you are my children's father. Otherwise, even if you die, I don't–"He grabbed her hand and pulled her toward him. Her body pressed against his bare chest, causing her to gasp."I don't what? You don't care? You won't care if I die?"She gritted her teeth and glared at him."You are right. You..."Her eyes turned blurry. "You are a cheap liar. I was not enough for you. You always need another woman in your life."His eyes darkened as he let go of her hand and wrapped his arm around her waist, causing her nose to brush against his.He looked into her eyes and muttered angrily,"In my lif
Natalia’s POV The dream felt so real. In it, I let out a moan as he sensually placed his hands on me, breaking our kiss. His electrifying touch sent waves of desire coursing through my veins. He lowered his head, and his kiss caressed the tender spot on my neck. I closed my eyes, hoping his affections would continue. His breath hungrily grazed my earlobe, sending shivers down my spine. But then, in a deep, chilling voice, he said, “Never.” I gasped, and my eyes flung open. I was alone in the room.It had been two years since I married Adrian Miller, the future alpha of the Crystal Blood Pack. During our two years together, I had tried and failed to win his love many times over. He hadn’t even marked me yet, despite that I was his wife. And as a werewolf, I couldn’t help but want my alpha to mark me as his. He also hadn’t been home in a long time, and I yearned for his touch.I heaved a sigh, sat slowly, and yawned. Then I looked at the clock, and my mouth dropped open. “Shit! I’m
Adrian froze at the word divorce. Then he heard me. He moved his head away from my neck and peered at me. “Do you even know what you are saying?” he asked, releasing his grip on my hands. As he did so, I brought my hands close to my front body.He stared at me, waiting for my answer, I brought my hands to the front of my body, then looked for any sign of discomfort in his expression. His question had made me wonder whether or not he was at all hurt by it. But the look in his eyes said I was wrong to wonder. He was a mighty alpha within our pack, second only to his father. Our divorce would bring his life back to normal, which was exactly what he desired. So how could he feel upset by it?I burst into tears and repeated, “Let’s get a divorce.”Deep lines formed between his thick brows. “Boring,” dismissively as he moved away from my body and rose from the bed. “You’re nothing but a nuisance!”I struggled to get up. “I’m not kidding. I’m serious.” To show him just how serious, I opened
Adrian’s POVI sat brooding amid loud bar music and colorful mist. “How dare she prepare the divorce papers?” I muttered to myself while staring at the drink before me. “And she thought I wouldn’t sign them?” My lips morphed into a twisted grin. “But I destroyed her little plan, didn’t I?” I felt that Natalia was not only a really dull woman, but a wicked person. I could still vividly recalled the details of the events that led up to our marriage. She had been eighteen the night we “met.” It had been my twenty-first birthday, and she’d drugged me. I woke next to her in a hotel bed the following morning and I understood it must be Natalia who did that.I hated her from that day forth, especially after my father demanded that I had to marry her. She had to have begged my father to marry me, too. Seeing how she was the daughter of a gamma, she had no chance to be the pack’s luna otherwise. So she’d entrapped me. And my father, in his perfection and compassion for other pack members, di
Natalia’s POVWhen I opened my eyes, I found myself in a hospital cabin. The last thing I recalled was a discomfort in my stomach. Panicked, I sat up and put my hand on my belly.“Don’t worry.” Dr. Reid’s voice met my years. “Your babies are totally fine.”As I turned my head to see him scanning what looked like reports.“D-did Adrian bring me here?” I inquired about him.He placed the papers on the tiny table that was located close to the bed, then turned to approach me. “Yes, but he’s already gone.”“Does he know?” I asked, trying not to let terror come through in my voice.“Not if you didn’t tell him.”I exhaled, and my body relaxed. However, at that moment, a thought occurred to me.Doctor Ried was the chief physician at the pack hospital. So, he was close to Adrian in some way. In the future, he would be likely to share the news of my children with Adrian at some point.“Dr. Ried, can I request something of you?”“Of course.” “Please, don’t tell Adrian about my babies.”His eyeb
