~Rain~I chuckled as I pulled away from the kiss, and we panted into each other's mouths. Neither of us said a word, even though we were standing under the heavy rain, shivering against each other.I had left Amara's side after I saw him walk out of the party. I could feel his eyes on me all night, and despite not exchanging words for the past few days, I knew there was something he wanted to say to me, and I felt the same way. Spending a few days apart from him made me realize that there was no reason for us to be apart. Even when Amara announced that we were back together as a couple, I didn't expect it because I didn't want to get back with her.Following Cody outside was the best decision I ever made. It was there that I discovered he was hurting and learned his biggest secret. I should have known all along, but I couldn't figure it out, and I had judged him that night. When the rain started, I didn't stop following him until I heard him scream my name."Rain..." he panted and rub
~CODY~ "Rise and shine," Ezra's voice echoed in my head as I fluttered my eyes open and felt my hand on his warm chest. I gently rubbed it and then smiled as I raised my head to face him.He was peacefully asleep, looking calm, and even though I didn't want to disturb his slumber, I reached out my finger to touch his perfectly shaped brows. I trailed my finger on them and laughed when he arched his brows. "Funny," his deep voice sounded, and I gasped as I felt his hands on my waist and his erection pressing against my back. "Prince Cody, you're being naughty this morning," he muttered. "Didn't you have enough last night?"I chuckled and cupped his face, then leaned in to kiss him on the lips, not caring about morning breath. I was just happy to be so close to him. "Rain," I whispered between kisses. He grabbed my hands and lay on top of me, pinning my hands above my head."Since you want another round of our lovemaking like yesterday, I'd be happy to..."A knock sounded at the door.
~CODY~"Are you ready?" Rain asked as we exited our dorm room, both of us dressed in the dormitory's blue tracksuits with our names boldly printed on the back. We exchanged glances and held hands as we left the dormitory. Inside the elevator, our connection remained unbroken, even as others joined us. We reluctantly let go as the crowd filled the space, but our eyes continued to meet.I felt a surge of happiness knowing that my mate had finally acknowledged me, and we were now together. When the elevator doors opened, we hurriedly stepped out, and Rain led me to a large pitch where many werewolves and lycans had gathered. The blue dormitories were on one side, while the other four dormitories occupied the opposite side. The red dormitories, including ours, stood beside the yellow ones.As I walked past Cara, she called my name."Cody." I turned to face her, offering a smile. She mouthed three words to me, "I am sorry."I nodded in response and then joined the blue dormitory with Rain.
~RAIN~He was finally mine. Who would have thought that the alpha prince would belong to me? Not in my wildest dreams. If only I had my wolf, I might have realized he was my mate.The mere thought of not recognizing my mate for two years made it feel like the world conspired against our bond. No wonder he seemed disappointed when we reunited, and I couldn't smell him.He had no clue, and I hadn't planned to disclose the presence of my wolf. Until I uncovered the reason behind my wolf's sudden absence on my eighteenth birthday, I intended to keep it a secret.During the arena games, I couldn't resist stealing glances at him, making it obvious to everyone that we were together. He didn't want that, and I respected his wishes, but I yearned to hold his hand without fearing judgment from others.I didn't care what anyone else said. I wanted to be with him constantly, without worrying about what others thought. It was none of their business; we were mates, and I loved him.But, did he love
~CODY~I slowly stirred from my slumber, my eyes still heavy with sleep as if I had been deprived of rest for days. Stretching my arms out, I let out a satisfying yawn. My hand reached out, hoping to touch Rain's body on the bed, but instead, I was met with the cold emptiness of the bed."Rain," I muttered his name as I fluttered my eyes open. He was nowhere to be found, and I gazed around in confusion, wondering where he had disappeared. My eyes fell upon a neatly folded piece of paper on the nightstand. I picked it up, my fingers trembling slightly as I unfolded it. Fearing the worst, I smiled when I saw Rain's elegant handwriting.Rise and shine, Cody. Take your morning bath and get prepared, for I have a surprise for you."Oh, right!" A smile tugged at my face as I remembered that today was Sunday, and we had a date planned. I had completely forgotten about it, but Rain remembered and had a surprise for me. My heart raced with excitement, and I couldn't help but wonder what Rain h
~CODY~"It's time for grocery shopping!" Rain announced as he drove to the supermarket by the side of the road. With that, Rain reached into a bag they had prepared and handed me a brown wig and a pair of dark shades. "This is in case we run into others."I took the wig from him and put it on, and he also pulled out a black wig and matching shades for himself. "Now, no one will recognize us. Time to go undercover, my love," he winked at me and got out of the RV, and I did the same.As we entered the grocery store and grabbed a cart, I laughed and took out my phone to snap a picture of myself and Rain. Our disguises made us look like characters from a spy comedy, and we couldn't help but chuckle at the absurdity of it all. We took more silly pictures as we strolled down the aisles, picking out what we needed.We selected various products from the shelves, occasionally pretending to clumsily drop them, our laughter echoing through the store. "What are you doing?" I asked Rain, still gig
~Rain~"Hey, Cody, bring out the vegetables," I called out to Cody from outside the tent that we had set up beside the RV. I was in front of the barbecue set atop a small, rustic wooden table. As I flipped the meat, I turned towards the RV's door, where Cody emerged, holding a tray of vegetables. He gently placed it on the table inside the tent and then walked over to me."Hey," he muttered, standing beside me. "Are you almost done?""Yes," I replied, but I gasped in surprise when I felt his arms wrap around my waist. "Cody," I moaned as his hand moved down to the waistband of my briefs. "What are you doing?"Cody chuckled playfully and slipped his hand into my briefs, gripping my arousal and gently stroking it. "Damn it, Cody, what on earth are you doing?" I moaned in ecstasy, biting my lower lip to keep from dropping the barbecue tongs I held."Payback," he whispered, planting a kiss on my neck. "I'm getting even, and...""Cody," I cried out as he teased my sensitive tip, moving up
~Rain~‘’fuck, please don’t stop, please…..’’ I would have laughed at him at that moment if I weren't breathless, my hips pounding hard against Cody. "I'm not stopping, my prince," I whispered."Oh, goddess!" he cried out through clenched teeth, but I ignored his plea and increased my pace. I felt his body trembling beneath mine, and as he arched his head back into the pillow, I leaned closer and planted a kiss on his lips. "Rain," he moaned, brushing my hair with his fingers, and he began to kiss me back.I groaned softly, pulling away from the kiss, and traced my thumb gently across his mouth as I thrust forcefully. I slid my thumb into his mouth, and he sucked on it, moaning loudly, which in turn made me groan and deliver a brutal thrust. I had warned him about making his legs shake that night, and I wasn't going back on my promise.Cody grunted, clenching and biting my thumb without breaking our intense eye contact. It was pure euphoria. "Do you want me to slow down, baby?" I ask
RainTwo years later,I frowned as I checked the watch in my hand for the time and hissed again. The plane should have landed, but it hadn't, which made me question why I had arrived two hours earlier. I had come when the sun was about to set, and now, it was dark, yet the plane showed no sign of landing.I shook my legs, stood up, and rubbed my hand on my forehead. I couldn't concentrate and only think about seeing him again after two months. That was the longest we had been away. He had gone on a royal prince's assignment, even though he was not the crown prince anymore. I should have gone with him, but I stayed back to finish some school projects, leading to our separation for two long months.I missed him so much, and even though we did video calls, chatted, and had phone calls, I still couldn't stop thinking about him, knowing that I was going to bed alone without his warm hands around my waist. Today was his birthday, and I had planned a massive surprise for him, which he would
~Cody~ Three weeks later,"Are you ready?" he asked, wrapping his arms around my waist."I've been waiting for this day all my life, and I'm happy that finally, I am going to see it happen with you." I turned around to face him and kissed him on the lips. The kiss was short, and I soon turned back to face the mirror. "What do you think the world will think about us, Rain?" I rubbed my face and adjusted my tie as I stared at myself in the mirror. This was it. I had made the decision, and there was no turning back. I made the decision myself when we arrived from the in-between because it was my decision, and I would never regret it.Today was the day I would reveal myself to the world, not just myself. I was also showing my mate for everyone to see."Everyone must accept us for what we are, Cody, and if they don't, we can always run away without caring about what anyone thinks. This is our time, and now that both our parents have agreed to it, who else can stop us from becoming what we
~Rain~As I released the arrow, my eyes followed it anxiously as it soared toward the source of the voice. The voice unleashed a scream, accompanied by growling, and a bright light emerged, revealing Gasin.Having envisioned Gasin as an ugly creature, I was surprised to find a beautiful red-haired woman. The only features distinguishing her as a goddess were a mark on her forehead and six fingers. This unique trait instilled a sense of fear in me, uncertain of what might unfold."You found the arrow of light!" she growled, placing her hand on the arrow in her heart. "You stupid boy!" Gasin pointed toward me, and the monstrous creatures ran from behind the Alpha King and Luna Queen, advancing on me.In the chaos, one of the creatures slashed across my chest, causing me to groan in pain. Before I could recover, another struck my back, forcing me to drop the bow from my hand."Cody!" I heard my name shouted. "What the hell are you doing!" Cody screamed. "Don't hurt him, please. He didn't
~Cody~I smiled brightly when I saw him heading towards me. He was here, which means he passed the test with me. ''Rain!" I shouted his name and rushed to hug him as soon as our eyes met. "I am glad we both made it," I chuckled and kissed his forehead. "I had thought that maybe something bad had happened, but here you are, smiling brightly at me. I am happy that we were able to work it out."Rain smiled and embraced me warmly, not letting go. "I had thought that something had happened to you, but I am happy that you are here, and there is nothing wrong with you," he muttered."Me too," I told him and sighed.A bright light suddenly appeared, breaking us apart, and from the bright light appeared a man dressed in a black robe with red patterns. The man's silver hair shone brightly as he approached us, carrying a powerful aura to behold."You both have succeeded, and I am proud of you," he said, bursting into laughter. "In all the years of being a master here, you are the first that woul
~Cody~The light. After the light appeared, everything changed, and I found myself in a room filled with diamonds. Rain was nowhere to be seen. It's like he was separated from me; no one needed to tell me that the test of desires had started.‘’You are weak!’’ A voice sounded behind me as I stood amid the diamonds, not taking another step because I had no idea where I was. ‘’Nobody wants you and Rain to be together. You are only a liability to him, and the sooner you realize this, the better.’’ The voice shouted, his voice resounding in the room.‘’Who are you?’’ I demanded to know the voice that sounded menacing and powerful enough to intimidate me. ‘’I won’t ask you again, who the hell are you!’’ I screamed back at the voice.‘’This is why you and Rain can never be together,’’ Caden shouted as he appeared before me. ‘’You are too weak, unable to defend the kingdom, and you caused the disappearance of our parents. Everything that is happening is all because of you. This is your fault
~Rain~ Finally, we were there, and it was the last phase, meaning that we would face Gasin sooner or later once we got what we wanted. That meant it would be the end of her. She wouldn’t bother us any longer, and everyone would be freed from her cruel rule. It also meant I could be together with Cody again without worrying about what others think about us."Are you ready?" I asked him. "This is the last place, and here, anything might happen. Promise me that you will return to me?" I asked, and he nodded in response, grabbing my shirt collar and pulling me into his arms."You also promised me that everything would be fine and you wouldn’t die in there?"I nodded in response, and he leaned in, kissing me quickly. I kissed him back, cut short by Teo, who had appeared from nowhere behind us. "I believed that you two are already done with your lovey-dovey moments," he laughed, and then his tone suddenly changed. "You also need to know that even though you might have promised yourself to
~CODY~ My eyes widened in shock as I watched him fall. ‘’Rain!’’ I shouted his name. It shouldn’t have to end this way, I thought. He didn’t have to sacrifice his life because of me, and now, he expected that I would be happy that he was gone. I could feel the rage building inside of me. It was just like the heat emanating from the boiling fire. I was angry at myself; it wouldn’t have happened if I hadn’t fallen. ‘’Everything is because of me!’’ I screamed and hit my chest repeatedly. ‘’if only I had tried my best to convince him then…..’’ I let out another scream as I placed my hand on the ground, tears flooding my eyes. How was I even supposed to live without him by my side? He was selfish, that I believed. He wouldn’t have left me alone and fell to the fire if he were not selfish. He was a selfish man who only thought of himself and not others. If he was not selfish, he should have let me go instead; now, he was gone. ‘’Rain!’’ I leaned against the edge of the step and
~Rain~ ‘’watch where you put your feet!’’ I shouted to Cody as we started climbing the valley. It was hard even to walk perfectly because the steps were not straight, and that was not all; it was dark, and the only glint of light we could rely on was the light that had penetrated one of the holes in the valley's walls. It was challenging to walk perfectly, and holding onto the wall was our only support. ‘’soon, we will reach the other side,’’ Cody assured me and laughed. ‘’And then, we will return with the sword, and it will spell the end for Gasin.’’ I should have been laughing alongside him, but I didn’t find the urge to laugh because I thought about many things that could go wrong. I feared something dangerous might happen to us In the valley because Teo had mentioned something about a boiling valley, but I had not seen anything related. I was starting to get worried about what could go wrong. ‘’are you alright? You are not…..ah!’’ he screamed as he tripped and fell.
~Cody~ Countless hours of walking had left me exhausted and hungry, and despite the weariness, our limited time in the realm compelled me to push forward. I couldn't bear to be responsible for wasting precious time, especially knowing Rain would worry. As my legs trembled, they eventually gave way, and I found myself on the ground. "Cody!" Rain rushed over; concern etched across his face. "What's happening? Are you alright?" Gasping for breath, sweat streaming down my face, I shook my head. "I'm not doing well," I confessed, sighing heavily. "I..." Pausing, I noticed the worry in Rain's eyes. "I don't want to impede our progress, and now..." "Mortals," Teo interjected. "I wouldn't blame you if you're getting tired. After all, this is not your home. Don't worry; I'll get you something to eat, and there's a stream down there." He pointed in the right direction. "You can go there and drink some water. I'll fetch food for both of you." With that, he flew away. "Can you walk?
