Cross “I think we shouldn’t worry about the council for now. To be honest, it’s not like they can beat us. We are just being careful because we don’t want them to catch us off-guard and not because we are scared of them. They are no match for one of us not to talk of both of us.” I told him after about a minute of complete silence. He looked at me and nodded in agreement. “You are right about them not being a match for us but still, I can’t help but be worried. Like this directly affects us. If we let our guard down and something happens, it will be bad for us and even worse for Thalia and I don’t want anything to hurt her.” He agreed. “She won’t hurt when she is with us. We can protect her. No one stands a chance.” I snickered. “I feel the same too. Wow, we have been agreeing on a lot lately. I think you should leave before we agree too much and start hugging.” I laughed at his joke. He hasn’t changed at all. He still got the joke. I used to think he would end up doing
Thalia “Lia?” I opened my eyes when I heard my name and blinked to clear my eyes. I looked around wondering when I fell asleep and how long I had been sleeping for. The last thing I remember doing was picking up my book to study because I haven’t been doing much of that lately. It’s still the beginning of the semester so I still have a lot of time to catch up. I must have fallen asleep. “Are you awake now? You have been sleeping for hours,” I yawned and stretched. I needed that sleep. I smiled apologetically at Lucas. I didn’t mean to take a nap. It just happened. “You should eat something.” My stomach rumbled as if it heard Lucas’s words. I held my stomach and smiled at him again. The only food I had today was the one Mr. Lim had gotten for me. I played with the food so I didn’t eat much of it. I was too anxious to actually eat. “Yes, please. Feed me.” I told him. He reached for my hand and I gave it to him. He helped me out of my bed and held my hand still as we b
Thalia “Tell me.” His voice sent a jolt of heat through my body and my heart beat rate increased. I swallowed and tried to keep my lips wet. He groaned and lowered his face to my neck. I tilted my head to the side to give him better access. His breath on my neck sent jolts of electric charge through my body. I inhaled deeply as I felt him lick me there. God, I wanted him so much I could die. When he moved his face away from my neck, I almost cried out in protest. I bit down hard on my lips to stop myself and our eyes met, I saw the fire in his eyes. He wanted me just as much as I wanted him. I only noticed his growing erection when he shifted beneath me. I ground my hips on him and he growled lustfully. “Stop doing that.” He warned me again. I smiled slyly, happy that I wasn’t the only one affected, and did it again. He stopped my movement by holding my waist still. “Tell me your expectations,” Oh, we are still doing that? I forgot until he asked again. Fine. I will
Thalia “Is that a good preview of what your expectations were?” I smiled when he asked me the question and nodded. It was more than a good preview. It was beyond words for me. A kiss like that would be perfect for my daily routine. Something to make my legs weak and my brain foggy. “I need words babes, words.” I smiled again. He called me ‘babes’ I can’t remember the last time I was called that and it might be the barest minimum for others but for me, it was too cute and wholesome to not be special. “What if I can’t speak because you kissed all my words away?” I let out. He smirked and cocked his head to the side with a satisfying snugged look that did a lot to enhance his handsome face. “You are good for my ego.” He whispered. I couldn’t stop staring at his lips as he spoke. How can a man be so fucking perfect? “I am just stating facts. If I wasn’t sitting on you, I probably would have collapsed to the ground. That’s how weak-legged your kiss left me.” I told
Thalia “No don’t, I will do it myself.” He let out, stopping me from taking off my clothes by myself after he put me down in his bedroom. I obeyed immediately, my hands falling to my sides. I only tried to take off my clothes myself because I wanted to speed up the process. Who was I kidding, of course, he would want to take control completely. I just have to be patient. The saying goes, good things happen to those who are patient, right? I don’t know if I said it right though. “Why?” I asked when he kept staring at me without doing anything. He smiled. “Nothing, I just like watching you have your conflicted thoughts.” I cocked my head to the side and folded my hands behind my back, the movement making my boobs push forward. The action wasn’t lost to him. His sharp intake of breath told me that he was affected by that small gesture even though it had been unintentional. “Are you going to do that all night?” I let out when he continued watching me. He smiled and pulled me
Thalia “Whoa,” I gasped when I finally fell back to earth enough to be aware of my surroundings again. "Seems like you needed that," He grinned as he hurriedly took off his clothes while I watched hungrily. My body was still humming from my orgasm and I was already wanton for him again. I licked my lips in anticipation when his cock sprang free as he tossed his remaining clothes away. He got on the bed, sliding up alongside me. “Are you ready for me, princess ?” I could only nod as he lowered his mouth over mine. He kissed me hotly, and I could taste myself on him. Somehow it made me even hotter, causing me to whimper, breathlessly, into his mouth. "My turn." I expected him to spread my legs. To just push between them and sink himself deep, all the way to the hilt, burying himself in my sopping wet pussy. Instead, I found Lucas rolling sideways, onto his back. He lifted me by the waist with two strong hands, pulling me onto him, and I helped him by throwing a
Thalia “Yess,” Lucas grunted out as he emptied himself completely inside me and stilled. His hands remained on my ass. Both our breathing labored. He turned with me in his arms and laid us back on the bed. It took a while for our breathing to return to normal and he brushed his lips over mine a few times. “You are beautiful.” I smiled at his choice of words. It was the same words he had told me that day many nights ago when he took me for the first time. “Too beautiful. All mine.” He whispered and kissed me on the lips. I welcomed the warmth of his mouth and kissed him back. The kiss went on and on until I had to tap him. “I need to breathe.” I told him breathlessly. He smiled and kissed the top of my nose before falling back on the bed and growling in satisfaction. I sucked in a much-needed breath and closed my eyes, feeling satisfied and contented. My body hummed in the aftermath of his lovemaking and I couldn’t help the smile that found its way to my face. I l
Lucas “Beautiful,” My wolf said with so much warmth and feelings. It was the first time I had ever heard his voice sound so soulful after over two decades with him. I couldn’t disagree. Thalia was indeed a beauty to behold and the amazing fact was that she belonged to me and with me. She was so good and her body was made perfect to fit mine. We moved together in such perfect sync that every other sexual encounter I have had in all the years I have been active faded out of my mind. I couldn’t remember any memorable moment with anyone but her. Her. Her soft moans, whimpers, and cries of pleasure. The little sounds she makes when the pleasure inside becomes too much to bear. They were music to my ears and I could still remember how they made me feel. Now she was sleeping after multiple rounds of lovemaking. I couldn’t help curving my lips in a satisfied smile. I could really watch her sleep all day, every day for the rest of our lives. Her little soft snorts added an extra
Cross “Why do we need to leave?” I asked him. The thought of leaving the school while knowing that that bastard was after my mate didn’t sit well with me. I hated it. “That’s what's best for her. It won’t take long for us to be linked to her.” “What does that even mean?” I asked him. I did my research before I took the job. If it was because of the no professor-student relationship then I don’t fucking care about that. I didn’t care before and I won’t care going forward. “I mean that if our relationship gets out, she will be expelled from the school and I don’t want that to happen.” He was talking crap. “That’s not going to happen!” “I wish it won’t but think about it! It’s not just one but two of us! Shifters are accepting but humans? They won’t! We don’t want her to end up sad, right? She really loves school and she has worked so hard to get this far. I don’t want us to ruin it for her.” I saw a lot of sense in what he said but that doesn’t mean I agree with it.
Cross “I am going to kill him. I swear on my life that I will kill him!” Lucas yelled on the phone. I couldn’t blame him. I felt the same too. I wanted to kill that bastard the moment I got the message from him. That bastard not only found out about Thalia but he has been following her for a while now and told me about it himself with picture proof. It wasn’t just a handful of photos that he sent. If it was, I wouldn’t have been so mad right now. He has been following her for a while now. Even before Lucas and I met her. I still couldn’t believe that bastard met my mate before I did and even talked to her. Thalia might not remember because he may have met her as a regular person but he did so and has been watching her for so long. I wouldn’t have believed his words if he hadn’t sent pictures of her from over a year ago. Just thinking about the conversation I had with him pissed me off so bad. I wanted to find him and murder him in cold blood. “You are not alone! I want to
Thalia “I can’t lie. Cross, I am scared. Honestly, I don’t know how to be calm and not anxious when someone out there is probably watching my every move. What if they find me when you aren’t there? It’s not like we are together every time, and it’s not like I can just stay home. I have school.” I told him, and he pulled me back into a hug.“Nothing is going to happen to you, Lia, I promise you. Don’t worry; I will take care of that bastard and make sure to put an end to the madness.” He assured me. I let out a deep sigh and snuggled closer to him. I just have to keep believing him and hoping that it will all end without me getting in trouble. After a while, we eased out of the hug, and only then did I remember that the other girls were in my room, and they probably heard our conversation. Not that I mind. “My friends are in my room. We are spending the night here.” I told him. he fixed my hair and nodded.“You go study, and I will take care of everything else.” He told me while
Thalia “Hey, did something happen?” I asked with concern. He didn’t respond immediately, just hugged me tighter until it got a little hard to breathe and I had to tap him. “I can’t breathe.” I managed to say and he let go immediately. He looked me over as if trying to make sure that I was okay. I smiled at him to ease his worry but he seemed even more worried. Something must have happened to make him so worried. “Are you okay?” He asked with so much concern lacing his voice. Yup, something definitely happened. “I am okay. Did something happen? Why are you so worried?” I asked him. He pulled me back into a hug. “Thank goodness,” He let out in relief. “Hmm. Why did you think something happened to me? I have been at the pack all afternoon and you told me that I am safe here.” I reminded him. He pulled out of the hug again and nodded. “You are safe here.” He assured me. “Okay, so why were you worried for me? You literally look like something big happened tha
Thalia “Yes, claim her. If he doesn’t, she might never know. Also, she has to be attracted to him too.” Those two are definitely attracted to each other. I literally see sparks flying around when they are in the room together. “You will see. I am betting money on the fact that they will get together.” I told her. She looked unconvinced. “I doubt it but let’s see how it goes. I really like her so I will definitely approve.” Emily called out to us again and We didn’t say anything else as we both made our way upstairs to the balcony outside my room where the other girls were already sitting and waiting for us. I realized that even though I have been here for about two weeks straight now since I returned from Lucas’s pack, I haven’t been into my room. I use Cross’s room and everything I need is there so I don’t even bother coming here. “You guys took forever to do the dishes.” Calista scolded us. I waved her off and sat next to Emily and turned on my laptop. Good thing I asked
Thalia “I am not tall enough.” I knew that wasn’t an excuse even before I said it out and Emily knew too. She eyed me. “Don’t piss me off,” She warned me in her motherly voice. I shook my head at her. Elena showed up just in time to save my ass from more talk and to eat. She sat down without asking questions. “Did you see your brother?” I asked her when I remembered the reason she had to go home first. “I did and he said to not worry and that he and the alpha will handle things.” She told me and started eating. She looked sad which made me worry for her but I didn’t ask any questions while she ate. “What happened at home? You don’t look okay.” I asked her when we started piling the dishes we used into the dishwasher while Emily and Calista went to up our reading spot. She forced a smile. I knew it was forced because her real smile was always more beautiful and carefree. “What happened? Did he not believe you?” I asked her. “No, he believed me. Someone else from th
Thalia “I told you before that he owns a booming business. They both do.” I told her again. she dropped her fork and widened her eyes. “I thought you were just saying.” “Girl, you literally searched for them, remember?” I reminded her. “Yeah, I did. Why did I forget that? anyway, you are one lucky girl. You are born into a rich family, got mated to two rich men and on top of that, you are a literal genius and a beauty goddess, honestly, I don’t know why you aren’t exploring your full potential. What’s stopping you? Remember that modelling job?” I rolled my eyes at her. now, she was back again with the same shit that I already told her that I wasn’t interested in. she wanted me to go into modelling. I asked why she didn’t and she said and I quote. “This is not about me, this is about you and using your beauty for the good of all.” as if that made any sense. It all started a month ago when I got stopped by a talent agency that wanted me to sign with them as one of their mod
Thalia “I am sorry,” I repeated when I finally found my voice. We hugged for a few seconds more before we broke apart and stared at each other. She cried. I could see the aftermath of tears in her eyes. I made her cry yet she didn’t not leave. “I couldn’t leave. I hate fighting with you but I couldn’t continue pretending that you weren’t hurting my feelings.” Emily told me. “I am sorry for how I have been acting. I promise that it won’t happen again. You were right, I need to work on my trust issues. It's not you. It’s me and I will work hard to become a better version of myself.” I promised her. “Thank goddess,” Elena said and we both turned to her. “Do you know that you both fighting will ruin the mood of our small friend group? Don’t do that again. I was gone only a few seconds and you guys broke up?” She let out and shook her head at us in disapproval. “Agree. One moment it was cool and the next moment, they both wanted to tear each other apart. I am just glad th
Thalia “It’s worrying because this is a no-drone area. No drone should be able to get close to the pack.” Now I was even more confused because I didn’t know there was something like that. She saw my confusion and explained. “Our packs, both the Silver-crust and the Rhae Blood Moon pack do not allow drones. We have an official permit from the government and all! Drones are not to be seen in the pack, especially around the woods, I don’t know what happened.” She explained, looking back the way she came from and looking up too as if looking for the drone that she had seen. I looked too but there was nothing. “I don’t know if it's a lost drone or if someone is deliberately sending drones in the direction of the pack to watch us.” Now it made sense. With everything that’s happening with the council, I hope it was a lost drone and not one sent to watch the pack. “I have to speak to the alpha and tell him what I saw.” Elena said in a hasty voice. She looked around again. I re
