The car stopped and Jett opened the door on my side, he helped me down and I blinked my eyes to adjust to the surrounding. There was a huge plane a distance from us and I regretted wearing a flared dress as it was windy." Hello, there," I felt strong arms wrap around my waist and I was lifted in the air by Wyatt. My hands reached down to keep my dress down. He kissed me deeply and frowned when our lips detached. " What took so long?" He wasn't asking me, his eyes were on his Gamma. " That prick alpha came to say his goodbye," Wyatt was tense, rigid. His anger rose and before he could lash out at anyone, I caressed his cheek softly. He looked at me. " I wanted to say my goodbye to him," I said sheepishly. I didn't but he would lash out at his men for letting Grayson near me. Wyatt looked at me unamused and his brows furrowed, about to say something but decided against it. " I'm sorry, but he was already there and we used to be close," I explained. " Let's go away from here," He s
He carried me in his arms and gently placed me on the bed. My eyes trailed down his toned abs. We were both naked, and he kissed my skin ever gently, making me shiver in delight. I was wet for him. He hovered over me, and ripped my panties," Hey." I complained." We'll get hundreds," Wyatt continued to kiss me, making my pussy throb. His fingers plunged inside me and he thrusts religiously, making me moan in ecstasy. " Yes, yes," my fingers were gripping his hair tightly, my hips arching. The sweet moans that left my lips felt so sinful. He stopped and I gripped his wrist, urging him to continue. He bent down to bit my neck, " Patience, baby," his tongue swirled around my hard bud and I moaned" Fuck," the feeling was intense and my pussy vibrated," Wyatt, please," " Please, what?" his voice came, " Fuck me," I begged, my eyes were shut tightly and he commended " Open your eyes," I obliged slowly, and his fingers entered me again, his moves were erratic and I rode his fingers wh
I woke up in the arms of my mate, his scent was wonderful and my wolf wiggled her tail in happiness. I took my time admiring him as he slept when suddenly, his eyes fluttered open, " Good morning," His voice was deep but soft. We exchanged morning pleasantries and he grabbed my waist, making me sit on his stomach. I hissed at the pain in my core. " Sorry," He was softly caressing my arm, small tingles rushing through my arm. " What's the program today?" I asked. " Well, I'm going to the palace to do some work, and you can look around, you'll be spending a lot of time here. You need to familiarise yourself with the place," he said, grabbing something from the bedside table, it was a credit card. " You can use this to get whatever you want, it doesn't matter what," He put it in my hands. I didn't feel comfortable taking it so I put it back and changed the topic. " I'll miss you," I frowned. " And I will too... So much," I bent down to kiss him quickly before rolling off him but he
After breakfast, the butler, Jerico, oriented me around the house first then the grounds outside. The estate was pretty vast, covering over 140,000 acres, in the southwest of the territory. It had plenty of space for wolves to shift and play. After exploring the estate, we went back inside and I walked down the hallway toward Lucas' room. I pushed the door open and he groaned, sensing my presence. " This is fancy," " I know and I can play all sorts of games in the adjoining room," He grumbled. He was still under the sheets. I threw myself on the bed, crushing him with my weight. " Get off me," He pushed me away and I removed the covers from his face. " What time did you sleep?" I asked. " After 01 in the morning," " Luca!" " I couldn't stop playing, your mate got me a PS5 as a welcome gift of a sort," " Well, get up and eat something because we are going to town," " Why?" " To explore, plus I want us to check out your new school," I told him, he finally opened his eye
" I didn't know," " We are not close," He said nonchalantly, shrugging his shoulders. I leaned on the counter, wanting to hear more about his brother but his phone rang again. I somberly looked at him and he gave me an apologetic glance before leaving the bathroom, my gaze followed him until the door closed. I washed my face properly and got into the bathroom to take a long shower. I sighed, feeling so much better after the bath. I slipped my hair into a tight bun and got ready for the day. I didn't have much to do especially since all the servants did everything including meal preparations. I was laying on my elbows, deep in thought, and didn't even realize when Luca walked into the room. " You look awfully bored," He said, going to the pool table. " I need a job or I'll die of boredom," " Aren't you like the queen now? You'll have duties at the palace. Hosting, visiting the people, etc," He pointed out and I nodded. " Not yet, I'm yet to shift hence can't take my place as Queen
I woke up in the arms of my beloved mate, he kissed my temple and rolled off the bed. " I have to go to the palace," he seemed distressed a little. " Is everything alright?" I asked, rubbing my eyes. " We have spotted dark wolves at the border again," he informed me and my blood ran cold. Dark wolves. The dark wolves were followers of the dark king, they were loyal to him even after he was killed by Wyatt and were banned from society. The dark wolves just like their former leader were oppressors of their fellow werewolf race. Most were corrupted by witches' magic. " How... I thought you killed the dark king years ago," " Yes, but we were so relaxed and they managed to rebuild and now, they want to take us out. They think I treated them unfairly," he explained. " So, what's going to happen?" " Kill them, all of them so that they have no chance to rise again," he said determined. " But who's their leader?" " We don't know, we placed Azriel to infiltrate their ranks, that
Wyatt Ever since I returned from the Topaz moon pack, we have been working tirelessly to control the attacks we are facing. " We need to find them before they start aiming at other packs as well," I said. " They have no chance to win against us, we have the numbers, wealth, and weapons," Alpha Toha said. " Well, I'm sure they want it," The dark wolves are growing in number and causing more trouble lately. We discussed further, and just as we concluded the meeting, the door opened and Rachel walked in. The three alphas stood up to leave. Only Aspen and Jett stayed behind with Rachel and me. Rachel smiled softly at me and kissed Jett's cheek. The two were close friends and he had saved her life many times, no wonder he didn't approve that I brought Adira here. Adira, Adira my fated mate. I wouldn't bring her here without ending whatever shit there is with Rachael and to do that, the parliament needs to get involved first. I fucked up. Royally. " Hey, Love," She called, snapp
The next day, my eyes fluttered open when I heard growls. I tightened my robe as I got on the balcony and leaned over to see what was going on down there. It was Azriel's wolf. He was lying on his belly, rolling on the ground, and looking like he was having the time of his life. The wolf sensed me immediately and sat up, curiously looking at me. His neck tilted a bit and I mimicked his actions, he turned around and I did too. I was too bored with my life clearly, so here I was frustrating the poor predator. He started barking and growling at me and I did the same, my stance threatening as his. " Wolf!" I heard Azriel call. " What are you-" He stopped his sentence as his eyes met mine on the balcony. He visibly swallowed and nodded his head once before crouching down to pet the wolf. " Why do you have a wolf? You're a werewolf," I said. " I found him in the forest when he was a pup, I think he lost his pack and I decided to take him in," he said gently. " What's his name?" "
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
