"Nah-uh, I'm not putting those things on. There's no need."She let out a relieved sigh when he dropped them to the ground."Fine, but you'll be wearing them tomorrow when I leave," Her ears perked at his words."We'll see about that, What are you doing?" She asked.He turned and walked to his drawer, pulling out bottoms and a pair of pj's for her. He handed them to her."Business,"Was all he said walking into the bathroom and turning on the lights. She contemplated this, it would give her free time away from him, which was much needed. She changed quickly, by the time he walked out she was sitting on the couch. She ran her fingers through her
He gave her a small smirk as if sensing her thoughts, he probably could now. "What? I can't just kiss my adorable little mate?" He asked faking innocence. She rolled her eyes at him and shook her head. "You took me to the doctor to see if you could keep the so-called adorable little mate." She pointed out. He pushed himself off of her and stood up, she slowly sat up watching him raise his arms and stretch. His shirt lifted a bit showing off the beginnings of his 'V'. "I was going to keep you no matter what. I'd just like to know. . . If I had to expect any surprises. You never know what to expect when it comes to the mating bond. While it's meant to bring two beings together, just like those two become each other's strengths they become their weaknesses. And when someone has a weakness they are easily manipulated, blinded by what they think will lead to their own happiness." He said, his mood no longer light, the seriousness in his tone sobering her up. That one sentence made he
After shopping, she went back to the mansion. As soon as she walked into her room, Rose sucked in a deep breath and looked down at her hands. She was on heat, and her muscles ached. Never having been in heat before.A shiver ran through Rose at the barest thought of Zander. All she wanted was for the king to return and to fill the space with his presence, with his alluring scent.She wanted him.With great difficulty, she walked onto the bed."Zander..." she whispered, testing the word. A blush bloomed over her cheeks at the utterance, and she turned her face into the soft pillows beneath her with a muffled groan.God, how she was grateful no one had heard her.
Zander's eyes didn’t just resemble a Royal feral wolf. He was feral. He had to be, for them to be shining with amber as they were. A second later Rose's observation clicked into place and she scrambled back on her hands until there was nowhere left for her to go.He wasn't feral.He was under the influence of a heat haze, which to be fair highly resembled feral. Logic and sense were all but foreign concepts to wolfs in a heat haze. Afflicted wolfs operated purely off instinct and want.And right now all it took was one look at the alpha king’s nearly glowing amber eyes to see that what he wanted was Rose.
Zander leaned forward, nosing at her sternum, lips grazing that place over her heart. It had only been a matter of time before Rose had gone soft-eyed and compliant for him. Breathing deeply, his warm breath puffing up against the silk-soft skin of his mate in his arms, he reached a decision. He wanted her, then and there. She was on fire, and she squirmed against her alpha king, the whine in her tone communicating her need for the relief that only he could give her. Her lush lips parted, and she breathed in as deeply as she could. Her searching hands met the warm and steady touch of Zander, who surged forward, his body pinning her to the bed as he nudged her legs apart. Her legs promptly fell to either side of him, and she pushed her hips up to get the much-needed friction she craved. He doesn’t know how she made it this long without having sex, but his wolf is doing double backflips in celebration of being the first. His fingers tightened on hers before he snapped his hips d
Rose touched her neck and winced at the pain when the alpha stirred. Startled, Rose backed away, eyeing him nervously. She was still naked.She sniffed the air tentatively, trying to puzzle out the new smell.Perhaps a beta had been through? No, not with her in heat. Any shifter foolish enough to get close would have Zander to answer to. Rose shivered, her eyes landing on him as he slowly sat up. She opened her mouth to greet him but the words died before they left her throat.Her fingers flew to her neck, finding his bite which began burning a bit, she knew would be there as she met the eyes of the alpha king across the room from her.“Come here,” Zander said gruffly, his voice still flavoured with the alpha command which had her back sna
Chapter 33"You marked me." He stated, his tone not indicating how he felt but she knew that if she wanted to now, she could check but she didn't want to."Yeah you asked me to, Are you angry?" She asked him, shuffling around to see his expression. She realized the answer right away when his soft blue eyes looked down at her with mirth and affection, he smiled down at her softly."No. Never." He stated proudly, leaning down to peck her lips.She smiled up at him."Thank you for helping me when I’m in he-"She stated, but before she could finish he threw himself o
She woke up to the feeling of a feather-light touch on her face, something trailing down from the corner of her eye, down the side of her face and to the corner of her lips before going over her bottom lip. Recognizing the familiar pattern she parted her lips and softly bit his finger. She heard him inhale sharply and opened her eyes. Laying half on top of her and his face hovering above her, Zander's blue eyes were bright and full of adoration. "Good morning." He murmured softly. With the tip of her tongue, she swiped over his finger, and he narrowed his eyes at her playfully. She let go and gave him a wide smile, wrapping her arms around him and pushing herself against him.
Rose got up from the bath, water sloshing around her as it trickled away from her body. Her flesh glistened in a soft haze of liquid. Her round breasts were pert and heat emanated from in between her legs. The Alpha growled in admiration as he helped her out of the bath. his arms wrapped around her, bringing her in close to this cocoon of flesh in which he wanted to imprison her. She threw her head back and welcomed his touch as he closed around her. She breathed in his scent and looked with wide eyes at him, drinking in every inch. Her hands dropped down to feel his arousal. Her hands loved the hardness and the heat.He kissed her until she was dizzy. Their tongues danced and their lips crashed together, the sensations blurring together in a crazed whirlwind of mad delight. She could feel a fire being stoked deep within her body and the flames were beginning to take hold of her. She needed more. She was hungry for him, her mate, and she wanted to show him how much she loved him.She
Zander had killed the vampires who had been helping Caleb execute the plan all this time. It was later revealed that Caleb had been forcing the witches to help him in killing the wolves. The witches have revealed his evil plans of using Rose’s blood and gaining more power since she’s a silver wolf. Her blood is the key to his wicked plans. They handed him big bags containing Rose’s blood which he extracted from her when she was abducted and held captive. Caleb has been piling up blood bags of dead wolves so that the blood could help him defeat Zander. Zander has freed the coven which had been suffering the cruelness of Caleb. They thanked Zander, healed his wounds and Rose’s and moved away from Citadel overnight. Rose’s heart continued to hammer in her chest as she helped gather the dead bodies and pile them up. When all the bodies had been gathered in a great pile, fires were set, and a huge pyre blazed. Smoke rose in a great thick cloud through the sky, and the flames danced. Th
As Rose began to realise what he meant, her blood began to boil. A low growl escaped her lips. Mini kept pushing at her to let her take control but Rose held her back. She wanted to listen to him confess. She wanted to know why he wanted to kill Zander. “Johanna? Vampire queen?” Rose weakly spoke, her throat was burning making it so difficult for to her speak. “Yes, she was, she was also my beloved mate but I should be ruling the Vampires not her, I’m the rightful leader, not her,” He spat out in anger. “Let me tell how I used “The Vampire Queen” he emphasized on the vampire queen. “I wanted not only the throne but also wanted to kill Zander,” he continued with a menacing smile on his lips, “So, I manipulated Johanna, saying that killing Zander would keep the peace between our two species… that, he’s the reason behind all those wars between Vampires, witches and Werewolves and she believed me… that fool,” “You son of a bitch,” Rose muttered, glaring at him. “She met Zander at t
Everything around Rose stilled, “This can’t be happening,” “This can’t be,” Rose glanced at the witches, tears-filled eyes staring at them with hope shining in them. “They-they are alive, ri-right?” Her heart kept slamming against the ribcage and the news shook her entire self. Her mind kept denying the information she received and she couldn’t understand how to react to it. “No, sadly they are not, I’m sorry,” one of the witches responded. She had never met her parents and didn’t even know their names until now but she kept living with the hope that she would find them. She will meet them someday, and when she does, she will ask them all those questions she wants to ask. Learning that she could never meet them shattered her dreams and the little hope she had. She felt the ground underneath her feet slip away. Tears kept rolling down her eyes, as her heart broke into millions of pieces. The pain was too much to handle, her legs gave out but before she could hit the ground Zande
Rose was on her toes, watching the witches curiously as they kept chanting spells while closing their eyes and pressing their fingers on her blood. She folded her hands over her chest and kept waiting. Her anticipation was killing her. You waited to know about them for this long, just wait for a little longer. Kateia said. I’m waiting, I just couldn't contain my fear. I hope they’re fine. Don’t worry, just stay calm until they find out where they are. Okay? Okay. Rose replied. Suddenly the door of the room burst open and the two bodies flew across the room and hit the wall opposite them. Rose gasped and stepped back in horror as she stared at the guards lying on the floor. Groaning in pain, their bodies were lying in a pool of their own blood. A loud growl echoed through the room, it was so feral and animalistic that Rose immediately turned to the source. When her eyes landed on the person strolling into the room with so much raw power, she stilled. Zander? He was pissed off
“You are telling me that Lucinda, my mother took something from you before she went missing and you need to find it?” Rose repeated his responses, trying to understand the real motive behind this. Caleb studied her closely before answering. “Yes,” Rose wanted to ask another dozen questions, but dragging useful information from Caleb was harder than she thought. She wanted to know why her mother went missing. And What happened to her family but she pressed her lips together. “We don’t have much time, Rosabel, We need to find your mother as soon as possible,” Suspicion coiled around Rose. There was something off about him. If whatever he was saying was true then why didn’t he find the reason behind her missing? He said she took something precious to him, what was it? Does that mean she ran away? Why? Who was she running away from? Why did she take something that belonged to Caleb? Caleb’s story didn’t add up to her, she wanted to believe the information he shared but she felt some
Zander kept his anger at bay when he learned that something was happening at the border of the door they found. There was strange whispering in the cave of the door and it was covered with dense fog, not allowing anyone or anything to enter the cave.“We have been trying to go inside for two days, but we are failing, Alpha, the longer we stay in the fog, the less we are able to breathe in there, it’s so dense that we can hardly see anything up ahead of us,” Gamma Stephen said through the phone.Zander was on the edge of losing it, after so many days of searching for the door and when he could reach it he never thought he would face trouble again. It frustrated him. Why is it so hard to open that damn door? He has to find a way to open it or he could never recover what he lost years ago. “We think it’s the witches' doing,” Stephan informed, “Care to explain,” Stephan turned the camera and showed a dead snake and animal bones lying in a corner used in witchcraft. Zander's eyebrows
The next morning, Zander and Rose got ready to meet Caleb. As they made their way downstairs, there was a knock on the door. Rose walked over to the door and opened it. “Good morning,” Vittoria greeted with a small smile on her face, “Good morning, Vittoria,” Rose greeted back, “I bought breakfast for you,” She said, Rose’s eyes moved to the packages Vittoria was holding and quickly moved aside, “Oh, Please come in,” Vittoria walked inside and placed the food on the dining table. Zander was at the dining table when Rose led her there. “Thank you, Vittoria,” Rose said while helping her place the food. “Please don’t thank me, you are our guest,” Vittoria said while smiling at Rose. “We have to take care of you until you are here with us,” she said while serving the food on the plates. “That’s so nice of you,” Rose said while pulling a chair out and sitting down. “Have you had your breakfast?” She asked, “Oh, I’m sorry, I know Vampires don’t eat human food,” she quickly apolog
As soon as Rose entered the castle, she felt the presence of vampires in it. The smell of blood and death surrounded them. Her wolf and beast grew anxious, they were on edge and began searching for any kind of threat around them. It was so creepy. Rose glanced at Zander, she noticed his body stiff and his eyes alert. Rose quickly understands that If he’s alert then that means there is something wrong. She let her wolf stay alert along with her beast. She trusted them over this unknown danger she was sensing. The moment she saw Caleb, his witch and his men stopped walking, she immediately halted along with Zander. Caleb turned to them, the corner of his lips moving upwards as he said, “Welcome to the Citadel, city of vampires,” he welcomed and turned to his right side and out of nowhere a beautiful woman stepped forward. She was a brunette with hazel eyes and had a body like a model. “This is Vittoria,” he introduced, “Rose, if you need anything, you can ask her,” Caleb then turne
