OLIVIA'S POV As we got out of the car, my gaze pinned him with insistence, as every question that had been with me melted away into one single heartbeat that came out of my heart with a loud thud. In a way I had managed to slip into the black dress, till then I had noticed how dressed up he was, I had been overwhelmed by my anger and anxiety that I had not noticed how properly he was well dressed. "Who are we expecting?" I asked. He chuckled at my comment, and all I could do was smile as I headed outside, lifting my skirts and watching my feet as I carefully made my way out of the car down the shore of the ocean. I was chastising my heart for beating so loudly, beating in such a way that I was certain he could hear every single one of it from where he was. "Really, I need to know what is all this about?" I turned to him asking. "Why don't you wait to find out." He muttered. Curiosity has always
OLIVIA'S POVOUR story was just about starting…Those words got everything that had to do with me, and he didn't even need to express more than he didI could understand every bit of what he was trying to say, the gravity behind his weighing words in the depth of my mind.If I was thinking this would be the end of everything then I was most definitely wrong as the end seemed far away.Almost like the stars in the sky as we sat aboard the plane the next night flying back home.A lot appeared to have changed over that cause of time and at the same time, so many things were left unchanged by time.I felt the cold air breeze past us as we made way past the border, in a way I still felt tipsy from everything as all I and Nate had been doing since after the wedding was having sex all day and drinking our asses off.At that moment I was so tipsy that I would have exchanged alcohol for water.I was never one that drank too much as it tends to loosen my tongue, to the point I feared what I wo
NATHANIEL'S POVTwo days later…Everyone desires a sense of belonging, and in a way, I could understand everything from her perspective.It was a natural desire by everyone—A desire by every man to know he is wanted and desired at any given point.It was not the same for my wife and the mother of my child, Olivia —As she seemed to be missing that extra piece that fitted her rightfully into the pack.I could sense every bit of it from her reaction, the truth was I was filled with anxiety as well, I was filled with it, but it was the last thing I would have loved to display for her to see.There was this fear for her acceptance, her survival, and succession in the pack, and If I had thought the answers to those questions would come quickly I was definitely wrong.I had been standing in my personal living room in the castle, and no one had called yet to ask about the mysterious woman bearing my mark on her left neck and a baby who appeared not to be pure blood.Of course, they had looked
BRIANNA'S POV I don't know how he did it but each time he kissed me I felt different on each and every, it seemed as though he had learnt the mastery of my lips, the way he nibbled on it slowly taking his time to adore each as my soul was enveloped into his. With his heartbeats against mine, it felt like we could do that all day, kiss till all that was left of our souls was emptiness floating far away into the wayward wind as we were obsessed with ourselves- Till we both can't exist by ourselves rather than till we coexist into one body, despite sharing different souls. Soon I lost my fear of someone walking in on us, I lost my fear of having to deal with the whole of his pack. All I wanted at that moment was Nathaniel and him alone. He filled in those spaces in my heart that were filled with doubts, fear and anxiety. Ugh…He sounded when I bit his lips a bit as he tasted red, looking deep into his eyes all I could se
OLIVIA POV I had just one word for the sex we had and it was— Best sex ever. It was hard remembering the last time I had felt so much passion, felt so much desired and wanted by a person and he had made me feel every bit of it, both wanted and desired. He laid beside my as sunlight creeped into the room, naked and heaving slowly like a fucking king. He was one anyways, the king over all these people… I rolled out of the bed and stood in front of the mirror, straightening out my hair that had become ruffled through the night. "Good morning love." I heard from over my shoulders and turned to look at him. Before I could reply he moved to the closet in milliseconds speed and back. It was so fast I wouldn't have noticed that he had done that. "What?" He asked, shrugging as he stood after getting the laces to his shoe done. "Going somewhere?" I queried. He got closer and k
OLIVIA'S POVWas there a better way to feel pain? Most certainly not.I felt a single bit of it in my heart that thudded loudly within my chest as if forcing it way out of me, as much as I had wanted to believe this piece of information it wasn't so, it was hard to believe that this just happened.Jane sat watching me deep in tears, and I couldn't think of a better way to comfort her.How can I?Telling her that I felt this same pain would be absolutely out of it ."What happened?" I asked if I was still able to comprehend the fact that she had lost her child."I don't know I just felt this kind of pain, then-"She cut herself off and broke down into tears again.I could tell that every bit of the unsaid world was getting to her, I could feel that stiffness around my lungs as well as that cane whenever I felt paint.An unfamiliar ache began in my chest. I wanted to share everyth
OLIVIA'S POVDeath and the experience of losing a loved one was something I couldn't get over with, neither can anyone because it was a part of life .Like memories it filled my mind, I had tried to think less about every single person that died thus far, from Mike till the fetus in Jane's womb.I left with a fact that this death no matter how prematurely it looked or no matter the circumstances surrounding it each and every one of it had been definite.Despite all that, I had to say that the way it stole life away from our mere grip was quite remarkable.All this feeling left me with one deep down in my mind, nibbling away in its corner was a fact that nothing was really dead when you looked at it right.Time could be death's greatest ally right from human to dust, fire to ashes — I could feel weak thinking about it, exposing my mind to the existence of death but I had seen enough for me to believe, now I had to stop it.Jane on her path had met with her own grief, the lost of h
OLIVIA'S POV."YOU know your father has made you the top of his blacklist." She muttered.I looked around at the room trying to remember how long it had been there.It was quite a replica of mine and in a way I missed my room back at home and not my family.I ran my fingers over the table trying to fantasize about everything, closing my eyes. I could picture being back in my room.The scent of incense, the color, the crystal ball, the spell book everything.It was a reminder of what my life used to be and that last time I had ever been this close to all of this was a year ago.I closed my eyes feeling the aura of the room being emitted again through me, I let the energy loss through me in the room till-"Olivia." Jane called my name as she stared at me blankly.In a way I could understand that it would be hard for her to understand all of this.She faltered at my sudden change of mood, looking around the room I realized that we were all alone."where is she?" She asked, realizing Ar
