Azriel I was surprised when Wolf came to get me urgently, he must have been worried that the vampire would hurt Adira as she almost did last time. I met the vampire female in a bar while I was undercover, and she helped me from a dire situation so I repaid the favor by granting her access here since she had nowhere to go and would have gotten herself killed. The vampire was depressed the first year as she was separated from her love and had been trying to get him back to no avail. For so long, I've tried to help her find him but it's ineffective because he is locked away by a powerful shifter. As we walked back, Adira was asking many questions that I didn't answer. " Is she your lover?" I didn't answer her, even though I wanted to scream at the top of my lungs that It was HER I wanted. " Kate told me you fancy me, is that true," I stopped walking. My heart was pounding at an irregular pace even though I tried to tame it. I smirked, " Would you like that?" She hesitated to an
Adira These couple of weeks have been a bit hectic, from attending balls to visiting hospitals with Mila. She has been a good guide for me and I'm learning pretty quickly. As hectic as it is, I managed to get proper training from a training master, Sahit, he was brought out of retirement by Wyatt just to properly train me. While I trained with him, my physical strength has improved immensely, and my wolf form is even better, I almost bested Wyatt in a fight two days ago, he was proud of me. I still can't get over their shocked expressions. The more I attend events with Wyatt, the more the senates are beginning to seem accepting of me even though many frowns at the fact that I'm only a beta, if only they knew I was more powerful than most alphas. " You alright?" Asked Wyatt, I smiled and nodded. Linking our arms, he kissed my temple. The hosting couple approached us and bowed. " King Wyatt, Luna Adira, thank you for attending the ball," Mrs. Khuna said with a smile, she was a
Adira I almost pushed him but my wolf told me to let him. He was just worried about us and it made me smile, my grumpy wolfless man. " Why are you so worried?" I whispered. " You could have died or something this time, dark wolves are merciless," he said. " You care," " You're my Luna and future Queen, I have a sworn duty to protect and care for you," he said, making me frown. " He said we were family," I told him and he looked at me, not saying a word. " What else did he say?" " That he came here to take another look at me," " He risked himself just for that?" he murmured. ' Jett, he knows something,' My wolf spoke after being quiet for a long time. What could the gamma know? ' Should I tell Azriel?' ' Not yet! I'm not sure,' he said. Azriel held my hand to take me back to the party but I shook my head. " I want to go home," he looked at me again and nodded without questions. He directed me to his car and I sat in the passenger seat and closed my eyes. The n
Adira I finished packing for my trip in a small black suitcase I was carrying tomorrow when the bedroom door opened and Wyatt walked in. I stood up to greet him with a soft kiss but he deepened it. My stomach somersaulted and suddenly, he attacked my neck with his delicious lips. I felt excitement grow in my stomach. He carried me in his arms and I wrapped my legs around his waist. He sat down with me in his arms and I moved my body closer to him eagerly. His kisses were more intense and I felt pressure between my legs. His hand wrapped around my breast and he gently caressed them. " Adira," his tongue explored mine. Wyatt was ravishing me with his tongue and as he did, my voice was getting louder and louder. He switched our position and pulled down my leggings along with my thong gently. I felt his tongue deep in my pussy and I gasped, aching my hips, " Hhm," He fucked me with his tongue, pleasure and desire continued to build in me and I gripped his hair tightly, making him gr
Wyatt I was in my office doing some last-minute work before I went to meet Adira at the airstrip when Rachel entered the office, " Get out!" I barked at her, she frowned and dropped some files on my table. " Be nice to me, King Wyatt, It's not good for the child to be surrounded by that angry aura," she said gently. I only glared at her. " I heard you're leaving the pack again," she said, folding her arms against her chest. My eyes fell on her stomach, I could now hear the heartbeat of a child in there, and she was beginning to show. I experienced a strange feeling I'd never in my chest. It was pleasing. " In less than five months, you've left the Diamond Royal City twice!" she bewildered, " King Wyatt, this is dangerous, what happens when there's another attack," " I think my men are more than capable of defending the city, Rachel, now if you have nothing more to say, please leave," My people and alphas were more than capable of defending their packs and we strengthened
Adira While on the plane, I found myself crying. I couldn't stop the fat tears rolling down my cheeks. My heart was calling unto my mate and I cried louder. I wanted him here to hold my hand and smile at me, his smile brings me joy and comfort. He was my safety net since the day I met him but now, I was starting to doubt that. I didn't want to doubt it because I knew of his love for me. I was the one who encouraged him to take more interest in the child he was expecting so why was I crying? Azriel didn't say a word to me as I cried, and I appreciated that. Two hours went by and we landed, only did Azriel speak, " Are you ready?" I nodded. I flinched when Azriel cupped my face and wiped the few tears away from my face with his fingers. We descended the stairs and the staff bowed to us, we left the strip to the taxi rank and I found myself sitting. I inhaled, trying to clear my mind. " We should stay somewhere and tomorrow morning go to speak to the alpha," I said and Azriel nodd
The next day, I woke up early to get ready to go to the packhouse. I was dressed in high-waisted plaid ankle pants, and a matching jacket, I wore my black high heels and looked into the mirror, a smile crossed my face. This is exactly how I wanted to look. Sophisticated and hot, I feel and look sexy, like a boss. ' A Queen!' Kira squealed, and I nodded in agreement. I carried the handbag Mila bought for me and went downstairs. I found Azriel in the salon, drinking something in a glass, " Isn't it too early to be drinking, that?" I frowned. He finally lifted his eyes to look at me and his jaw almost dropped to the floor. I spread out my hands and twirled. " Do I look right?" I asked. His mouth parted and closed, I watched him intently as he was failing to produce any words. He only nodded and gulped the contents of his glass. " I'm coming with you," he said. We were about to leave when I held his arm, and he looked at me. " Can I have whatever you were drinking, just to help c
We went into his office, but this time, with only alpha Mars, beta Steven, and Grayson, I felt his eyes on me but I didn't look at him. We got situated in the large office and Alpha Mars smiled at me, all this was weird and I didn't want to get familiar with any of them after how shitty they treated me in the past so I didn't smile back. " So, how may we assist you, Luna Adira?" " My parents, I want all records of them," I said. That was the last thing he was thinking I'd ask clearly as his eyes widened a little. My ears perked up and I heard the beta's heart pound against his chest. He was worried." Well, your parents were private people and I knew nothing about them," he shrugged, getting comfortable in his chair. I exhaled and looked him dead in the eyes. " You can't know nothing, you're the alpha of this pack and must know everyone," I gritted my teeth. " Well, we don't know much about them," Beta Steven said in the corner he was standing in and I glared at him, making him un
A year went by without Ethan, and it was torture for Kate, she had cried thousands of times and she thought her tears would run dry but she was wrong. She didn't know how the love of her life was doing except he was alive thanks to Azriel, she was grateful to have him by her side. " What did the butler say?" " He found out where they are holding him and we can go rescue him with a few of my warriors," he informed me and I smiled, going to hug him and he hugged me back. " Thank you, Azriel," I cried, pulling away from him. I didn't know what I'd do without him and I'll forever be grateful that I ran into him in that bar. " When are we going?" " Tomorrow," he informed. I was restless the whole day, we were waiting for night to come to invade the hunters and the next day, I was at the border of the Diamond pack before everyone arrived. The journey to Creek Fall town was two hours but most of them had shifted in their wolf form and I rode in the car with Azriel. Kate's heart was thu
The past two weeks were blissful for Kate and Ethan, they spent most of their time in each other's arms or watching vampire movies. " Do you do that too?" he asked as they watched a vampire movie, stifling a chuckle and she elbowed him in the gut. He grunted. " Why are they sparkling like that though," Kate murmured in wonder. She couldn't watch anymore so she stood up, deciding to stretch her legs for a while and it had been long since she went out to hunt. " I'm going to hunt," she sighed, wearing a coat. Ethan stood up and pulled her towards him. " I thought you preferred my blood," he purred in her ear, making a shiver run down her back. He left kisses on her neck and purred but she managed to push him away. " I want to stretch," she said. He smiled at her and nodded, watching her leave the cottage. Ethan was feeling terrible for not telling Kate who he truly was but his wolf told him that vampires and werewolves repel each other. Ethan's heart hurt at the thought of losing K
“Am in a very bad mood and you should leave to save your skin,” Ethan warned.Detective Bradley took a step back, almost mentally placing his hand on the latch of his gun. He could see a murderous glee in the visage of his enemy, Ethan.“I have a few questions regarding that lady friend of yours,”“ I don't know anything about her, like I said, am in a very bad mood and don't want to answer questions,” he repeated, hoarsely and whisperingly. “If you don't leave, am going to have to hurt you,” Ethan emphasized, trying to avoid eye contact, he was struggling with his inner wolf to maintain control as he wanted to take over and rip the detective to pieces. “I don't give a fuck ass what mood you're in. We can have this conversation out here or we can take it to the station.,” he replied, “It's your move mate”Ethan said nothing, he just remained placidly still.“Are we going to have a problem?” he asked again, readying to use brute force“ Please, go,” he struggled, sweat forming on his t
It was a pleasant night for Ethan but, as always, she was gone when he woke up. Leaving his office, he decided to leave his car and walk on foot. He was beginning to find a sinister satisfaction in these forbidden hours of the night. He hurried to the side of the street. The rain had just stopped and the sideways were still moisture-laden and the neon lights of the dry bar across the street glowed irritably across the range of his vision. He folded his hands into a fist, gnarling and pissed at nothing in particular. He stood there a moment and gazed fixedly at the strange gathering of the night colors in the air. He needed to hit something. It was the only logical thing to do. It was the only thing that felt like it would calm his restless soul. And maybe it was going to take the pain away. He stopped, feeling intense pain all over his body. He breathed in and started to walk, ignoring the pain earlier, but it started again. His heart was beating erratically and he stopped, touch
THE YEAR 1895 The gentle luster of his eyes lifted to the burning noon sun through the small window. Mathias Icarius Montgomery leaned over and craned to see the outside world through the iron bars of the prison that held him. A cloud of dust flew in and then rushed into his eyes and he drew back irritably but quickly recovered to his earlier position at the window. His last moments of freedom were these. He had been accused of treason, and he was on death row, sentenced to be hanged the following day. The failing hope that now possessed his visage was owed to the thoughts of being in this state, unable to be with his ailing wife with child. He stood, relishing the pallid scene outside. The people, buried in the turmoil of the usual vending, filled the streets, stretched through every narrow gate and boulevard, and discharged into a stream of many, making their way to this pitiful scene. In the street swelled diatribes of profanities and muffled chanting and voices of other unfamil
This was it. This was the day that she was going to die. She knew that she had to pay the price for the only day that she could spend with Ethan. This was the price she had to pay. Her father got up in the same fashion, and he could see everything that was happening. The wind was loud and still violent and this wizard was not here for any kind bargain. Halomir stretched out his hand, wading it in the air, and she knew that no good thing was going to come out of this. She launched onto him and took him down. She was going to die, but not without a good fight first. She pinned him to the ground and loosed her fangs. Suddenly, he blew some powder in her eyes and she became blind momentarily. Black magic, this was black magic. She fell back, moaning. She was blind, she could not see. She could hear the wizard approaching where she stood, and again she made a second attempt, but he caught her in midair and lifted her from her neck with one hand. Not only did he make her weak, but he had
It was only a few hours into the night. There was no doubt in her mind that Detective Bradley Burke was going to do everything in his strength to make sure that she didn't see the light of day again. Kate seemed calm in her seat, there was no need to fight it yet, it would only make things worse. Detective Bradley Burke glared at her through the mirror. She was sitting in the back seat, “How did you do it?” he asked her. She looked up to meet his eyes. “How did you kill those people?” Did he want to know? She eased her gaze on him. She knew it was easy to compel him even through the glass, but she wouldn't want to do it just yet, because Ethan was probably soon to be involved, so she would let it play out naturally for now. She looked away, ignoring his question. “I am going to make sure that you are locked up for a very long time” he promised. “And I am going to get the truth out of you one way or another,” She immediately let out an involuntary chuckle that stroked Burke as an i
Kate was escorted outside the house by Ethan. He opened the car door for her, and she got into her car and began driving away. She could see him in her mirror, standing on the driveway, watching longingly with his beautiful eyes, and she immediately envisioned what it felt like when his lips were deep into hers. Her lips parted as she lost herself and tried to escape her wonderful reverie. What was happening to her? Was this what love felt like? Was it even possible that she could feel love? Finally, in the distance, he disappeared, and her heart skipped a beat, already missing him. Doing the impossible, meeting him in broad daylight was impossible. And even if magic could do it, a huge sacrifice would have to be paid to just be able to stand in the sun without being scorched to death. Yes, that's it, black magic. After a few hours of driving, she approached the trail leading directly to the castle. She stepped out of her car and treaded carefully there. She trudged up the hill a
Ethan’s house, lit from within, stood at the far end, close enough for her to watch. Kate could see his silhouette moving about in his bedroom, and she stood in silence, watching, soon to head directly there. She would have to explain why she was hurt and why she had come here. She braved another step, then immediately sensed a variant presence in his house. It was different from the female servants. She searched with her sharp eyes and finally confirmed the reason for her dissatisfaction. Nestled on the bed in his bedroom was a woman, Danielle. The window was wide open and everything was revealed. Kate had been the one to compel her to forget what happened when she was lost in the night. Kate had done this kindness to get Ethan to focus on everything but Danielle. Kate watched in wondrous suspense. Danielle was sitting in his massive white bed dourly, as if unsatisfied with something. That perfume she wore only meant trouble and Kate scowled, then hopelessly cowered, fearing the wo
