Ares' pov

I opened my eyes only to snap it shut a second later as the sun burned my vision.

I opened my eyes to a slit, trying to get used to the bright light before opening it fully.

The first thing I noticed was the sun directly above me, and I rolled to my side.

The next thing I heard was the sound of waves crashing before I felt the prickle of sand on my skin.

I was on a beach.

I sat up slowly, ignoring the pain in my head as I looked around. My vision was impaired with black dots coming from the assault of the sun till I could finally see clearly.

The sand was so white it felt like a dream. The ocean so clear and blue I could see the crystals that sat deep in it.

There was nobody or building in sight as far as my eyes could go, making me wonder how I got there. I tried to connect to my wolf, but it was futile and he was totally silent.

I sighed, but allowed the smell of salt and sea calm my nerves.

“Tabitha would love it here,” I thought to myself with a smile.

As soon as her na

    The first thing that came to my senses was a sound. Slight humming of a tune I knew by heart, making me smile inwardly.I tried to let the sound lull me to sleep, but it was as if my body was protesting, screaming at me that I had had enough sleep.At that point, I knew trying to get back to sleep was pointless, so I simply opened my eyes, slowly at first till I adjusted to the light of the sun setting far in the west reflecting from the large glass.I tried to remember where I was and what was going on, but I kept drawing a blank.Then it hit me.His scent.“Tabitha,” I felt a small shake on my arm, the voice laced with so much emotions, and a hint of disbelief.When I turned to the voice, a large body crashed against me, causing me to wince.“I'm so sorry,” he rushed out.I blinked once. Twice. But he was still there.I tried to sit up straighter, but a wave of dizziness washed through me, sending me back down.“Easy, easy,” he cooed, placed his hand on my shoulder and helped me up.

    Ares' pov After she went into the bathroom, I found myself barking orders at the maids to get all of her favorites meals ready, before going back to the room.I paced the room a few times, waiting for her to come out.I couldn't hear any sound coming from her in the bathroom, and this pushed not only me but Pellar to the edge.I knew I was meant to give her some time but she had been in there for close to an hour, the thoughts of her drowning in the bath from excessive tiredness, clawing at me till I couldn't take it anymore.My resolve snapped, and my feet led me to the bathroom and I pushed the door open, panicked.My eyes landed on wide hazel ones and even though the bubbles in the water covered every part of her up to her neck, I couldn't help the way my dick twitched as the water ran down her wet hair and face.Her doe eyes stared at me expectantly, and while I realized I was gawking, I couldn't do anything about it.“Ares….is something wrong?” Her soft voice tipped me off even

    The sincerity of his words struck something deep inside of me, and just when I thought I couldn't love this man any more, he proves me wrong.The kiss was slow at first, as if we were trying to memorize the feel of each other's lips and tongues lapping against one another, but it soon turned into something very hot, my need for him increasing with each passing second, and the thick scent of my arousal in the air fueling the kiss.“Ares,” I moaned into the kiss, our chests flushed against each other.My fingers ran through his silky hair, pulling him impossibly closer to me. I clamped my thighs shut, in dire need of friction between my legs.“Your scent,” his voice was husky and deep, sending me over the edge and I might as well have cum then and there.He pulled away, much to my dismay, and I made that known by the frustrated growl that left my lips.“We'll get back to it, love,” he pecked my lips before fully moving away. I knew as well as he did that we still had a lot to talk abou

    “Good morning,” Ares' deep voice greeted me as soon as my eyes fluttered open.He was propped up on his elbow staring sweetly at me. “Morning,” I said, feeling a bit flustered.He'd meant it when he said he wasn't going to let me go for days. We had been cooped up in his room for close to a week, learning more about each other and making love any chance we got.It was like being locked away from the real world and I loved it here. In his arms.The guilt of still keeping the real truth of my life from him surfaced as I looked at his breathtaking smile and shiny eyes, but I quickly pushed it back down.I was probably being selfish, but I didn't want him to see me any differently. Not yet at least, because I knew I had to tell him someday.“What's wrong?” His thumb grazed my chin.That was one of the things he had learned to do during our time together.He could easily tell when I had even the slightest change in my mood.The mate pull was now stronger than ever even though he was yet to

    Once alone, I walked back into the closet and finished getting ready for the day. Choosing comfort over style, I wore a pair of black jeans and a sweatshirt.When I was done styling my hair in a messy bun on top of my head, I walked downstairs.The usual noise and bustle in the house had died down and I felt a tinge of sadness.Ares had relieved all the staff of their duties and asked them to return to their families. According to him, it was better they left since they were incompetent, and he didn't want to kill them all because of their services to him over the years.He made this decision after a footage from the security camera in the hallway was retrieved, and showed a hooded figure going into Candice's room early that morning.Investigations were still going on, but it seemed like a dead end all round.After he sacked them, a new set of four maids were employed, with plenty of well-trained soldiers manning the environment, most of them I recognized from endless trainings with t

    Ares' pov A permanent scowl was etched on my face as the meeting dragged on.I gripped my phone tightly, trying to distract my mind from the half naked picture of my mate that had my cock raging.We had made love every single day in the last week, yet I couldn't have enough of her. I still had a lot to explore with her body.The thought of ditching the stupid meeting ran through my mind a number of times, but this was an important deal and I'd put it off for far too long.I couldn't wait to get home and bury myself in her soaked pussy.The thought pulled a groan from me and half of the table turned to me.“Alpha, are you okay?” One of the members of the board of directors asked.“Yes,” my response was short and forced, but they all soon turned back to the presenter.The AC was in full blast, but I found myself sweating and shifting uncomfortably in my seat.Who knew my little mate was a temptress?By the time I was done with her tonight, she wouldn't tease me this way again.“...righ

    Somewhere down the line, I had switched from the ancient book to a romance book, because as educative as it was, I was tired of seeing big words that I had to look at twice to grasp the meaning of.A small smile played on my lips as I got lost in the love story of a blind girl and her brother's best friend.My body became still from being in one position for too long, and I stretched. When I did, my eyes widened as I saw how dark the sky had turned.I checked the time on my phone.“Shit,” I muttered.7:35.The rain had reduced to slight drizzling so I quickly peeled the comforter off my body and stood up from where I'd perched myself on the couch all day.“Sorry, couch,” I said, knowing that I must have dented it with my weight.I had planned to have a long bath tonight with rose petals, scented candles and wine, but I was already late enough as it was.A smile crept up on my cheeks as I thought of doing that with Ares some other time.Untying my hair from the bun on top of my head an

    My eyes burned. My chest tightened and the simple act of breathing became a challenge I seemed to be losing at with each passing second.I wiped the tears away with the back of my palm, but no matter how many times I blinked or closed my eyes, when I opened them again, the image haunted me, mocked me, and question everything I knew.This was the height of cruelty as I knew it and nothing, not even Jason and my own sister's betrayal came close. Not even knowing that someone I spent five years loving was the first to strike me to death, caused me the intense pain I was feeling at that moment.Glaring back at me was a video of Ares with a woman, a woman I knew very well, straddling him, and they were both naked! His eyes were closed probably from the pleasure as Noelle grinding herself down on him, moaning to tomorrow.Nyx clawed at my mind, howling and crying, but I was in way too much pain to pay attention to her, and just shut her out.After watching the short video to the end, everyt

    Six years later“And there you go,” I placed Adele's little plate in front of her.“Mama, give daddy some,” she said when she noticed I was yet to serve Ares.“Yeah, give daddy some,” Ares wiggled his eyebrows suggestively.“You're disgusting,” I laughed and swatted his arm before going back to the kitchen to get our own plates.Breakfast went by quickly with Ares asking the kids about their week in school, and light chatter went round the table.After breakfast, I sat on the couch, surrounded by the loves of my life. Ares snuggled beside me, his head on my shoulder, while the twins, Emily and Jackson, and their baby sister Adele, played on the floor. The room was filled with laughter and the sound of tiny feet pattering around.I couldn't help but think about just how lucky I was to have a complete family with the man I love. In the last six years, the pack has thrived to new heights, but no matter how busy he was, Ares always made time for his family and I couldn't be more gratefu

    I slowly opened my eyes, groggily taking in my surroundings. I was in a hospital room, surrounded by beeping machines and sterile walls so white it made my head ache.I felt like I'd been run over a train many times and every part of me ached.Ares jumped up from where he was seating on the couch, grabbing my hand. His eyes were red-rimmed from lack of sleep, tugging at my heart painfully."Hey," he whispered, his voice cracking with emotion. "Welcome back."I tried to speak, but my throat was dry and sore. He helped me sit up, and quickly handed me a glass of water, and I drank greedily, the cold water sliding down my throat and bringing life back to my body.“You're here,” I mumbled after handing the cup back to him.He nodded rapidly and clasped my hand with his, bringing it to his lips. “You're here too. You came back for me,” he kissed my hand.I brought my hand hooked with IV up and ran my fingers through his overgrown hair. His shoulders shook lightly and I knew he was crying.

    I gulped. The malice and anger in his voice were so palpable I didn't doubt him.He sneered, seeing his words had the desired effect on me before pulling away.My eyes followed him as he walked to the far end of the room and picked a sword from the wall.He let the sword hang loosely on his hand and the tip grated on the concrete floor, making a shrill sound.He stopped a few feet in front of me, and I clenched my teeth, looking as bold as I possibly could.“Jason, do we have to kill her?” Galia asked, biting her lips.He turned to her and his eyes narrowed in slits.“Don't tell me you're chickening out now,” he spat.She shifted her weight from one feet to the other, looking uncomfortable. “It's the Alpha we want. We don't have to kill her,” she repeated.“It seems like you've forgotten what this bitch did to you. To me!” He yelled. “Let me remind you.”I could see Galia's resolve breaking, but he was trying to get in her head.“She made you irrelevant. You lived in her shadows for y

    My eyes opened and the first thing I noticed was the banging pain in my head. The room was utterly dark and somewhere in the far corner, I could hear the steady leaking of water, and the putrid smell of the place hit me square in the face.I groaned in pain, as I tried to move the searing pain in around my chest and arms told me I was bound. The silver burned deeply into my skin, causing me to roll my eyes in pain, and stay still on the chair.I felt something cold trickling down the side of my face and one sniff in the air, I knew it was blood.I tried to remember how I'd ended up in this position and after a few seconds of trying, my memory came back to me in bits and pieces till I made sense of the whole picture.I gritted my teeth and tried to break out of my restraints, but the more I did, the more it burned my skin.I closed my eyes to stop the tears that were threatening to fall. Just when everything was beginning to fall in place, this happens.My mind went to Ares, and I tri

    The meeting was dragging on longer than expected, and I shifted uncomfortably many times in my seat.I sat at my place at the head of the table, staring blankly at the papers in front of me while the presenter’s voice grated at my consciousness.I was supposed to be attentive and giving my inputs on crucial business deal with the foreign investors, but my mind kept wandering and my wolf kept pacing, making me even more restless.Pulling out my phone, I dialed her number for the third time and clenched my fist around the device when I was sent straight to her voicemail.I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that had been plaguing me all day.After a few minutes, I tried to focus on the numbers and figures, but my thoughts kept drifting back to Tabitha, and I couldn't help but feel a sense of dread.I tried to mind-link her through the matebond, but all I got was silence.“Fuck!” I slammed my fist on the table.Some people jumped in fear and others looked up at me warily, concerned

    I woke up the next morning with a smile on my face, feeling like I was walking on air. I was back with Ares, and this time, they were mated. My fingertips traces his mark on my neck and I smiled at the tingly sensation. So this was what being bound to someone felt like.Nyx was as happy as she could be and I'd never felt at peace like I was doing now, in his arms, knowing we had overcome the hurdle that separated us, and I was his like he was mine.It had been two weeks since we got back together, but we still couldn't get enough of each other.We had spent the everyday in these two weeks snuggled up together, only leaving the bed to receive our food that Ares had ordered for, and when totally necessary, and these two weeks have been the happiest of my life.I felt closer to him more than ever now and understood him on a different level since I could now feel what he was feeling through the mate bond, and most times, those feelings were unholy ones that had us tangled underneath the

    Ares' pov I opened my eyes to the rays of sunlight peeking in through the curtains and the memories of the night before came playing in my eyes like a record.A smile covered my face and I turned to snuggle up with her but the bed was cold and empty.My eyes opened, wide awake now and my heart slammed in my chest at the thought that it was all a dream, but before I could go into a panic attack, the bathroom door opened.I released a deep breath as my eyes landed on her innocent brown eyes, her hair tied I a messy bun at the top of her head.“Everything okay?” She asked with a small smile, but I didn't miss how nervous she was.Six months apart, and yet she looked even more radiant than I remembered. Her now short brunette hair framing her face beautifully, and her skin glowed with a warm, golden light.I took a deep breath and reached her in three long strides, wrapping myself around her in a warm embrace.She squealed before relaxing into me. It was a wonder that the connection bet

    My breath came out in short, quick pants as I rode out my high. Ares had said he wasn't going to last, but I didn't expect the heavy orgasm to crash down on me the way he did.In less than a minute, my body was heating up again and shame filled me.We still had a lot to talk about and having sex this way didn't solve anything. Heck he was still with Noelle and she was pregnant!I immediately felt terrible but the ache in between my legs made those thoughts fade.I clenched my legs shut, momentarily embarrassed so he wouldn't see me like a sex deprived maniac, but it was well beyond my control.“Don't hide from me,” his husky voice said from behind me.He turned my body so I was facing him and kept his knee in between my legs, keeping me from seeking friction from my legs.“Wee shouldn't be doing this. It's so wrong,” I shook my head.“Why?” He asked, his filled with different emotions that made my insides curled. “We're mates.”“Not anymore,” I said but I sounded like a moan at the en

    Ares' pov I saw red as I stormed in and saw Rodolfo on her. On my mate!My feet moved before my mind, and the next thing I knew, I was pinning him to the wall.His eyes widened with fear but before he could say anything, I let my emotions take control and began slamming my fist into his face.He was helpless in my hands and my wolf was out to play, but nothing seemed to soothe me. Not the repeated scrunch of his bones breaking under my fist, or his painful growls, or the blood splattered all over his face and my fucking fist.Nothing seemed to calm me.My wolf wanted blood and I wasn't sure I would stop even if he dropped dead to the ground.My relentless pounding on his face continued till a needy whine rolled out of her lips and everything around me stopped.I let him fall like a sack of potatoes on the floor and mind-linked my guards I'd come with to come in.I immediately rushed to her quivering side before they entered and yanked off my coat, wrapping it around her and scooping
