I attentively cleaned the newly opened wound on his sides and bandaged it. " You need to stay away from Wyatt for a little while," I told him. " He doesn't do too much damage," " Well, still, " I said, cleaning the blood off his face, and putting some stitches where necessary. " I didn't know you're a nurse too," He said, I chuckled. It felt strange. " Anyone can do this, plus, been a school teacher, we are trained for this for a few months," I shrugged, standing up and pulling a sheet over him. " Rest, I'll bring you food later," I said and he nodded. I didn't leave just yet though. Wyatt was here and we needed to talk, I didn't know what to do. I looked back at Azriel, he was watching me. ' Wyatt is our mate, you can't avoid him forever,' Kira said. I felt the strong sparks earlier when he touched me and when I looked into his eyes for a split second, I felt the strong mate bond and the butterflies in my stomach were relentless. It took everything in me at the moment not
" I just need some time away from you, and everything that comes with you. I think Lucas and I will find a place near the school so that- " " No!" he interrupted me. " No, don't leave me, Adira," he begged. He cupped my face, shaking his head. " I love you so much, I wouldn't survive without you, please. You're everything to me," he was distraught now, saying words of promises. " I'll do anything you want of me except that. If I let go, you won't come back, I just know it," he cried, " Adira, understand that you own me," he pulled me in a long tight embrace and I allowed myself two seconds of pleasure. My wolf was excited that she was close to her mate. " I just need some time to think and regain my trust in you because I don't know how to be with you right now," " Don't leave the estate, please, I- I'll stay away," he decided. I breathed through my mouth and went over to the counter, making some chicken noodles for Azriel. I could feel Wyatt's intense gaze on me but I didn't look
AdiraThe night started on a good start, well, until Dwight started a fight with a giant and we were kicked out of their favorite bar. So we are standing outside the bar, laughing at what happened while Dwight is frowning. That man bested him and Ambrose altogether and threw them out like bags of potatoes. " I hope you are happy, Dwight!" Spats Nova. " How was I supposed to know that she's married to that giant." he shrugged. Illa smacked him on the shoulder and he looked up, " Get up," " Where are we going," " Next bar, of course, this will not ruin our night," We followed Illa to the next bar, and as soon as we entered, the bartender sent us drinks on the house. " That was random," I said, taking my cocktail. " I fucked him a few nights ago," Illa shrugged nonchalantly.As I continued to talk with the girls, I saw someone I didn't think I would. Richard and Gilbert. They both smiled at me and waved, I blinked a few times to make sure I was seeing them. Why were they here? I as
The first thing I did when I woke up was go to Azriel’s room. I pushed the door open and yelped when I saw him in only his boxers. “ Sorry,” I said, turning around to look away but I had already seen and now, the perfect muscular image of his body will be forever imprinted in my mind. “ It’s almost 3 pm, how do you sleep so much,” he said, I debated turning around but did, he was now clothed. I let out a puff of relief. “ I went out with Ambrose last night,” I informed him and he raised an eyebrow at me. “ Wyatt was not happy,” “ Thought so” I sighed. He was rummaging through a drawer. He pulled out odd-looking cigarettes with a satisfied expression on his face. He offered me one and I gave him a disgusted face, “ Let’s not be all high and mighty,” he said, pulling a lighter to light it but he stopped. “ I’ll do this outside,” he cleared his throat. I followed suit, I didn’t want to be alone as I was avoiding Wyatt and his inner circle so I was stuck with him. “ Are you
The invitation didn’t say much other. I looked at the two girls. “ Do I have to go?” “ Yes, my lady. The king and his office sent it,” “ I don’t want to see him,” I said with a tight jaw all while my heart was beating my chest. I sat in front of the vanity table and Chloe started to brush my hair. “ I know you are aware of Wyatt marking another woman,” I said softly and she stiffed, I peered up at her through the mirror. “ I’m sorry, My Lady. The king told us not to tell you,” “ Tell me about her,” I said, Chloe’s sister, Yang came close to us and sat on the floor. She lifted my feet and started to massage it. “ Rachel Tarion is a bitch who only pretends to be nice because she wants the title of Queen desperately,” Chloe said. “ Does the pack know about her yet?” I asked. “ No, King Wyatt has never introduced any woman to the pack because he was adamant about not taking one,” Yang said. I frowned, what about the oath that tied him to Rachel? “ What about the oath?”
Adira Chloe and Yang helped me get ready for the party. I wore a beautiful dress and high heels, my hair was done perfectly and so was my make-up. The driver took me to the palace and just like last time, it was a marvel to my eyes. All eyes fell on me when I entered the ballroom and I held their gaze. I didn’t want to look timid or intimidated by them because I knew these were high senates of the pack and other alphas were in attendance. My eyes found my mate instantly and his awe gaze was on me. I was about to take a step further when Richard Tarion walked over to me. I heard Wyatt’s low growl but still politely greeted Richard. “ You look beautiful,” he said. “ Indeed,” My mate approached us, he was glaring at Richard. Wyatt pecked my lips and I didn’t pull away. I missed him so badly, I missed being kissed and touched by him. " Stay away from my mate," he whispered to Richard and linked my arm with his. My eyes caught Azriel among the people watching us with inquisitivenes
Rachel Tarion eyed me up and down in disgust, her aura emitted abhorrence and danger. I stared at her, lips pressed together. She scoffed. " May I help you?" I asked calmly. " Am I not getting an apology from you?" She asked. " I didn't wrong you, why would you expect an apology from me?" She laughed coldly and sniffed, " Your existence wronged me, you're the bitch who stole my chosen mate from me!" she yelled. Rachel was heaving, angry with me yet I couldn't think anything other than, she's so pretty except all that obliterates when she talks so callously. " Say something you homewrecker!" " I'm not a homewrecker," I was impressed by how relatively stable my voice and wolf were at this moment. " You and Wyatt are not married, you were not introduced to the pack and I'm sure he has told you several times that he wouldn't accept you as his mate," I said. Rachel raised her hand to slap my cheek but I held it... Firmly. She struggled and I let it go harshly, making her stagger a
The ringing in my head was back ' It was her, she was the one, my lord,' 'Impossible! She's dead, I- I felt the bond break,' the unknown male voice said. I tried to open my eyes but failed, so I just lay in the soft bed I was in, enjoying the tingles that rushed through my body. " It's been long enough, don't you think?" That was Wyatt's cold voice, he was worried about me. I tried to open my eyes but failed. " Everything is normal with her, we already carried out all the necessary tests," a woman spoke. " But why did she faint?" " Fatigued, tiredness of the mind and body, it can be a lot of causes," " She just recently shifted," Wyatt whispered. " Maybe the body is just adjusting, and getting used to its new normal. The heightened emotions," The same female voice murmured. " Thank you, you may leave," Wyatt said. His lips pressed against my forehead. " It's been 24 hours, you're scaring me now," he whispered, did he just say I've been out for twenty-four hours? ' Ki
