Lucius's POVMy eyes narrowed down at him."You have lost your mind!" I hissed as I pushed past my irritated brother and moved to open the curtain he had meticulously closed.I heard his footsteps coming toward me and I gritted my teeth in anticipation. He wasn't going to stop."But you want her. You can't deny it. I have seen it in your eyes!" Lucas' annoying voice filled the space around me.I rolled my eyes and moved to sit on the couch."Can you pour me a drink?" I asked, hoping to divert his mind to something else.He stopped hovering behind me and moved to the fridge to get a bottle of wine."It's not a crime to say it out loud you know... I am sure she is in love with you too," he beamed as he dropped the drink on the table."Humans don't fall in love just like that," I hissed. It takes time and effort from both parties."He rolled the wine glass in his hand and flashed me a small smile."Since when did you know so much about humans, Lucius?"I narrowed my eyes on him again. H
Diane's POVMy cheeks immediately turned red at this point. I wished the ground would open and swallow me whole.Kissing Lucius at the church during the wedding ceremony was one thing but doing it here on the beach was another.My heart made a flip and I felt it drop to my stomach as it started beating erratically."Stop teaching my son those kinds of things, Lucas!" Lucius growled and for no reason at all tingles spread to the top of my arm."I didn't teach the boy anything. You saw it yourself, he wrote it. I didn't!" Lucas defended himself."And when he does that can't you just tell him nicely that it is wrong? You should know...."The brothers continued to argue in the background but I tuned them out. Because each time Lucius parted his lips to speak, I found my stomach moving funnily.I was tempted to hold my chest to verify if my heart was still in place because the rate at which it moved scared me.I was losing my mind.How could his voice excite me like that?"Diane!" Lucas sh
Diane's POVMy throat suddenly went dry and at that moment I wished my cheeks showed less reaction.His brows were knitted together as he stared at me and it was then I got reminded that I had just yelled at him.I squeezed my eyes closed, "I am sorry, I thought it was Lucas...""Did he upset you?" His voice had suddenly dropped to that tone that triggered my hormones again.Oh God! Please help me..."Huh, yeah... I mean—" I paused as I realized that if I admitted it, I would be forced to tell him what had transpired between us.How was I supposed to tell him that his brother caught me falling for him?"It's nothing serious," I said instead, forcing a fake smile onto my lips."Are you sure?" Lucius asked, his voice now mixed with concern. "Lucas is just like Owen sometimes, he acts like a child. If he upsets you in any way please do not hesitate to tell me."I nodded and flashed him another one of my smiles. "Sure. I will tell you..."An awkward silence settled between us and I watche
Lucius's POVMy wolf was over the moon. He wanted to be let out. He wanted to kiss our mate, taste and feel every part of her but I kept him inside as I admired her beautiful body.Indeed, I was very lucky. The goddess sent my mate to me on a platter of gold. I didn't even have to struggle so much, she gave herself to me.My hungry lips returned to her lips as my fingers continued to caress her nipples, foundling with her breasts till she was completely breathless.I could tell in her eyes she wanted me just as badly as I wanted her. But I wanted to take things slow with her. Our first moment should be very memorable.I lowered her back to the bed and my fingers explored the beautiful curves on her body, tracing her delicate skin till I got to her soft mold.My wolf purred in satisfaction as my fingers rested on her clitoris."Hmm... Lucius..." She moaned holding my upper arm.I looked up at her and my eyes darkened. She had her lips pulled between her teeth and her eyes were closed a
Lucius's POVShe took the nightdress from me and threw it on. Then she pulled her legs close to her chest and she looked into her hands."I was raped four years ago at a college party," she whispered.My eyes turned red as my anger grew ten folds. And I was grateful she wasn't looking at me because it would have scared her."I got pregnant and I was going to keep it but unfortunately, I had a miscarriage."Her eyes turned red and I panicked, she was going to cry. I rushed towards her and held her in my arms as soft sobs started coming off of her."I really wanted my baby... It was the only thinForeplayg that made sense in my life..."I didn't know what to say to make her feel better. Heck, I didn't even know what to do myself. At first, I was livid and I wanted to ask her about the terrible man who have dared rape her but then she mentioned she got pregnant. As much as I love children, I couldn't bring myself to accept that she had a child with someone else and then she said she lost
Diane's POV I was in seventh heaven, enjoying the ride Lucius was taking me on. My brain was blank. Nothing held me back. I wanted to enjoy this —I was enjoying this.The size of his cock was scary at first but as he moved slowly and gently at my pace, butterflies and a warmth I couldn't describe spread over me.My heart swelled with even more desire and I found myself rolling into me, silently requesting for him to do more.I could feel his restraint. His veins were popping on his forehead and I knew he was holding back... just for him.I read so many books on sex in the past, I never thought a man could hold himself back like this just to satisfy a woman but Lucius was doing it.My heart swelled with an emotion I couldn't describe.I held on to his arms as he pushed slowly but steadily inside my vagina. He didn't insert his entire length, he placed just enough to excite me.It got me writhing with pleasure until the sound of the doorbell brought me back to earth.I tried to calm m
Diane's POVIf I thought the lady's cheeks were flushed, mine was competing with tomatoes in color."Oh my God, Owen!" I gasped covering my mouth in shock.The entire restaurant went silent as if everyone had been listening to our conversation.Sophie dropped her head to the ground, unable to look at me or the boy. Lucas had eyes expanded in shock and Lucius —I didn't even want to turn to see what he looked like.Yet, the culprit himself was very happy. He giggled and clapped his hands."Please control your child," the lady repeated before scurrying away from us like we were a plague.It felt like a slap on my face. I wanted to defend Owen but we were all guilty. Well, not all of us but Sophie. She was the one who said the word but for some reason, I didn't want to say it out loud in front of the boys.I got up and carried Owen with me, "Come with me," and I started heading to the elevator.No one stopped me from leaving, but I could feel their eyes on us as we moved.As soon as the e
Lucius POVWhen Lucas first informed me about the honeymoon, I thought it was the worst thing ever. I was not sure my wolf would be able to control himself around Diane nor would my hands stay to themselves.But it turned out to be the best two weeks of my life. We didn't have to pretend to be an actual couple anymore because we became that.As the rays of the sun kissed down on her beautiful face on that last day, I wished we could extend it but I had put aside my pack duties for too long. I had to take care of them too.But Diane was so irresistible, just watching her sleep made my cock twitch. It was so innocent I couldn't ignore it.My fingers slowly reached to her cheek and I pushed away the strand of hair stuck to her lips.Last night, I urged myself not to make love to her because Owen had refused to leave until much later when I texted Lucas to come to whisk him away. But it was too late to touch Diane, she was tired and I didn't want to seem like a sex maniac.But as I stared
Diane’s POVI felt something within me shift and before I could stop myself, I threw myself against Scarred-face, screaming my lungs out.“Let my baby go!” I screamed.In my mind, I was so sure that I would manage to create enough distractions to take Owen from them and run as far as I could, but all those moves were only in my head. I didn’t even get far before Liam grabbed me roughly by the arm.“Where do you think you are going? The party is just starting…” he growled and threw me hard towards the bed. My head hit the bedframe and I felt my consciousness dwindle before my eyes.I blinked, panicking even stronger. If anything happened to me now, I wouldn’t be able to protect Owen anymore. I would fail once again in protecting my baby.“Mummy!” Owen screamed and I tried to raise myself from the ground despite the dizziness in my head.I refused to give up. My body was groaning in defeat, but I would rather die. Adrenaline pumped through my bloodstreams, and I dragged myself back to m
Diane’s POVAs soon as Liam stepped out of the room, I saw it as my opportunity to escape from his room. I returned my shirt to their position and moved out at once. I still remembered the route we had taken while coming, so I traced it back to my room.I was about to take the final bend when I heard a deafening growl from a room on my right. The blood within my body froze and panic started drumming through my skin.They said anyone who knew could be rescued, so I let my curiosity lead me to the side of the wall where I could get a good angle to see what was happening in that room.“No!” the roar echoed out of the room once again. “Keith can’t die like that!” he screamed again, and I watched as Liam held his head and dropped to the ground with tears in his eyes.“My lord, I saw the body with my two eyes. Lucius had made sure there would be no regeneration for him. He is dead-” a man covered in a hood was saying.I covered my mouth as the realization of what this meant flooded through
Lucius’s POV“Are you sure we are heading in the right direction?” I asked Monique for the third time since we have been on the road. I noticed that we had been going around the same places for close to two hours now and she just sat there with a smug look on her face, watching me as I drove as if I was a new show in a cinema.“Monique? Didn’t you hear me?” I asked, throwing a glance in her direction. She was now sitting with her legs spread apart and the skirt barely visible anymore.“Hmmm, yeah… yes, of course… just keep going…” she said, waving her hand to the screen while her eyes remained on me.My wolf twisted with disgust at her position. If she couldn’t sit properly, she shouldn’t have worn such an absurd outfit. I wanted to reprimand her to adjust herself, but I decided to ignore it. She was not my responsibility.“I don’t know if you have noticed but we have been going round the same place for hours now. Can you look at the road and tell me where we are supposed to go?” I a
Diane’s POVI planned on convincing Louis to help us escape but after hearing that Liam and Keith had his family, I couldn’t bring myself to say anymore. I would do anything to save my family, so I understood exactly where he stood in all of these.In the next couple of hours, I tried to remain positive as I studied every inch of the room, we were kept in, hoping that a miraculous door would appear from nowhere and I could step out of it.I even took my time to think about my decisions, wondering if things could have been different if I had acted in another way. I was stuck on a roller coaster of emotions till sleep managed to steal me.But even the sleep didn’t give me the rest of mind I needed. I kept seeing horrible endings to our situation that soon turned into a nightmare. The worst of them was when I saw Liam kill Owen. I was going to die first before I let anything happen to Owen.By the time my eyes opened, they went straight to Owen and I only relaxed after I saw that he was
Lucius’s POVIt was already in the early hours of the morning when I got to Macy’s house. As usual, as soon as I parked the vehicle in their driveway, I noticed the move of the curtain and I was suddenly reminded of Fred’s death.At some point after all of this was over, I would have to inform her of what had happened to her brave husband.My heart was heavy with sadness, but I swallowed it back. If I slacked now, her husband wouldn’t be the only bad news I would be giving her.I got out of the vehicle and this time Lucas stepped down with me. Together we went to her front door and just a few feet before we got to it, the door opened, and it wasn’t who I was expecting.“Where is Diane?” Sophie’s firm voice rang out around the area like she had a microphone buried in her throat.“Something came up and she… can I come in, there is a lot I have to explain to you,” I said. My voice was heavy with emotions, and I hoped she didn’t aggravate things.She studied me for a second before her sha
Lucius’s POVWith Keith dead, I left the captain of my soldiers and Kasper in charge, and I took one of the cars back to the human city to get the answers I needed.There was still a lot to be done, but I knew that I could trust my men to do a very good job of clearing everything and sorting what needed to be sorted.As I drove, my eyes were fixed on the road, but my heart ached for Diane. She was going to be broken when she found out about her grandfather but more than that, I needed to get her before Liam decided to do something crazy.Each moment I spent in that vehicle increased the number of questions rolling through my head and by the time I got to Bucks quarters, I practically jumped out of the moving vehicle.Lucas who had already been notified was standing at the entrance waiting for me and the moment he saw me, he ran towards me and hugged me. A rare moment where we shared our bond as brothers and as much as I wanted to just push him away and proceed inside, I could understa
Lucius’s POVThe sound of clashing bodies and screams filled the area in seconds. Just like I had thought, this was more intense than what we had done at Keith’s pack. The ninja wolves were far more trained than the guards’ Keith’s pack.My men were starting to struggle. Each time one of theirs fell, two of mine fell. If things continued at this pace, we were going to lose.I tore through the bodies of soldiers and tried to make my way into the castle where I knew that Keith would be waiting. He had planned this very well; he knew that it was going to take a lot more to bring him down with the ninja wolves on his side, but I refused to give up.I tapped into my alpha abilities and skillfully cut through them, but they were like ants. If two fell another four appeared and I knew that I had to strategize again if I was going to beat them, or they would change the narrative of the fields. We had come to capture their ruler but if we weren’t careful, they were going to end up capturing me
Lucius’s POVI marched toward the tent where Fred was being kept with a boiling heart filled with rage.I felt so stupid. The signs had always been there from the very beginning, and I failed to recognize them or maybe I was just too blinded to see them.From the very first day I met him, I recognized the strange scent of him. When he gave me that cock and bull story about his pack, I knew there was something about it that didn’t entirely add up, but I chose to believe it.And then it didn’t stop there, when the council had arrested him suspecting him to be Patrick, I had the feeling that they were on to something. My council might have been cowards, but they were not entirely stupid. Something must have led them to Fred’s doorstep, and I had closed my eyes to that possibility.Fast forward to the day I went to tell him about his freedom, he had been on the phone speaking about something strange. Yet again, I let it slide. He even had the guts to call me and give me intel like he was
Diane’s POV“You have lost your mind, Liam!” I hissed shaking my head in disgust and disbelief. If he really thought that after everything, he did to me I would belittle myself to the point of sleeping with him then he must have truly lost his mind.He threw his head back and let out an irritating laughter before stopping to look deeply into my eyes. “Do not worry. We have all the time in the world. Lucius is Keith’s reward, while you are mine. No one is going to stop me,” he said and got on his feet.I felt the blood in my body scatter and my heart started beating at a dangerously fast pace, but I kept my cool. Owen was also staring with a glint of fear in his eyes, and I held him tight. I was ready to protect him with my entire life.“Louis please, take them inside. Let her freshen up,” he said to the traitor who had sold me out and then his evil eyes turned to me, “When I need her, I will call for her. I hope you are smart enough to take this moment to relax that beautiful body of
