Cassandra’s POV The sun rays finally found their way through the curtains and it became more evident that the day of the combat had arrived, it wasn't just near, it was here. My heart pounded faster as I watched the particles from the sun rays float in the room. I barely slept the night before. Every time I closed my eyes, I saw Marcus fighting Bernard, blood staining the ground, his body broken. My mind keeps coming up with different scenarios to keep my eyes wide open. With a deep breath, I looked at Marcus with every passing second. It felt like it was the first and the last time I would get to look at his face, so I took in every detail, memorizing it. Out of nowhere my mind echoed, How would it end? I thought of a possible answer and my heart pounded so hard, it felt like it was going to burst out of my chest. My emotions are flooding right now. I have never felt this deep fear of losing someone and I couldn't keep it bottled up any longer. “Marcus,” my tremblin
Cassandra’s POV Even if I hated the deafening howls from the crowd as Bernard landed his first punch, it was the only thing keeping me from losing consciousness. Bernard has raised his hands in victory gesturing for them to continue the howls and chanting like he had won the combat. I saw Marcus' lips move as he lunged for an attack, but Bernard’s claws got to Marcus before Marcus concluded his attack. Bernard's lips moved like he was replying to whatever Marcus had said. I was extremely curious to know what they were saying, why hasn't Marcus landed any hit? What is Bernard doing? Is Marcus really going to lose? Just before my mind could cook up another question, Marcus’s claws slashed across Bernard’s chest, tearing through skin and muscle, sending droplets of blood splattering onto the dirt. Bernard stumbled back; the smugness on his face had disappeared, but he didn’t go down. Before Bernard completely gained balance, Marcus lunged with a guttural growl, ramming hi
Cassandra’s POVLuckily Marcus moved just in time. The poisoned arrow buried itself in the dirt where he had just been, missing him by inches but the fight didn't stop.My hand slid down my face as I made a relieved sigh; I was sure my blood pressure would be over the top right now.My warning had drawn attention but not just from Marcus, I had a guest coming my way.She sauntered toward me with a goblet in her hands like a cat toying with its prey.“I would have brought you some exotic wine they served important people in the pack then I realized you are a nobody in this world.” She said with a smirk. The men beside me tensed, their hands twitching toward their weapons as they stepped closer to her.I lifted a hand, stopping them. She wasn’t a threat…yet. Even if all she had to say is usually nonsense, I don't mind giving her a little food for thought via some demeaning words.I had no response to her entrance speech so I ignored her and moved my head sideways since she was alrea
Cassandra's POVIt took just a few seconds before adrenaline started to drain from my system, and then trembling followed.My heart started to pound and my breathing became ragged.I stared at my hand in the slow realization of what I had actually done.I watched blood drip from my fingers before my gaze drifted to her lifeless body sprawled on the ground, surrounded by a spreading pool of blood. I just stared hoping guilt threatened to choke me. I expected to look up and see disgust on the faces around me, I couldn't even raise my head.I waited for the whispers, for the accusations, for someone to call me a murderer. I braced myself for the judgment. But… nothing.When I lifted my head and looked around, all I saw were indifferent expressions. No shock. No horror. Just blank faces, as if this was normal. As if watching someone kill a person, even their own sister, was just another part of life here.It didn’t feel normal to me, so I convinced myself that I should experience guilt,
Cassandra’s POVEverything seemed to have gone still the moment Marcus pulled out Bernard's heart, gripping it in his hand to some mud.The howling and cheering stopped, and nobody said a single word or even breath.All eyes were fixed on Marcus and his blood-drenched hand.Shock was all over everyone's faces, it was like they were trying so hard to process what this meant for them.But I don't miss a few satisfied faces, faces that probably had their bet on Marcus and he made them proud.I turned to the elders, and they were as shocked as the audience, with just one or two satisfied faces and indifferent faces.They probably knew Bernard was going to play dirty and they were willing to overlook it.Well, that's not my problem; the important thing is my baby won; anything after that can go gorge their eyes out for all I care. My gaze went back to Marcus, who was still standing tall with the heart clenched in his hand, unshaken by what he had just done.His eyes seemed like it was loo
Cassandra’s POVMarcus was awake. My eyes were wide open in disbelief trying to be sure my mind wasn't playing tricks on me.I had to pinch myself with my other hand before relief sparkled through my veins.He stared at me with a soft smile on his face and I didn't even realize when I started crying.“Hey, what is wrong?” Marcus asked gently, his smile quickly switched to concern.“You are making me go crazy.” my voice trembled as I pushed out more tears. “I thought you were going to die. You scared me, Marcus.” He stretched his hand, trying to reach my face, so he leaned forward.I wanted to slap his shoulders so badly for making me worry so much about him but right now, I am just glad he's alive.“I am sorry,” he said softly as he cleaned the tears off my face. “I came back because of you, you know. I needed to see you become my Luna.” he teased.“Seriously…Jokes?” my mouth pouted trying to mask a smile.“That wasn't a joke.” He replied with a grin.He looked so cute that I ha
Cassandra's POV I wanted to open the doors for him, but he wouldn't let me; he wanted to have his grand entrance even with one of his hands bandaged. He pushed the doors open and strode in with me behind him. The murmurs became louder, and we both looked around at the elders seated in their designated seats, whispering like mannerless children. Marcus’ gaze averted to the empty throne; he stood still, staring at it like it was calling his name. A satisfactory smile was displayed on his face as he continued to stare at it. Lord knows what he was going through his mind. While he was still lost in thought, one of the elders, whom I recognized to be one of those with a displeased face after Marcus won the combat, stood up. “Marcus,” the elder called out calmly and cautiously, “We didn't think you would be out of bed so soon, that poison isn't a gentle one.” Marcus didn't look away from the throne or attempt to answer the man so I gave the old man a response in his stead.
Marcus’s POVEven as I looked into her eyes and told her she had nothing to worry about, I couldn't shake the flood of questions swirling in my mind.Not to talk of the series of emotions. I didn't know whether to be scared of what I might have turned her to or be proud she was as strong as I believed she was.But all that explanation in my head doesn't explain how she was able to fight, defeat, and even kill Lilith without getting seriously harmed herself.How did she process the emotions that come with the first kill? How is she holding up? Or has she gotten over it so quickly? That shouldn't be possible, and most importantly, why did she tell me before now?Damn it! I need to stay focused, all these questions are not the priority right now. She was victorious and not injured, that was what mattered. Everything else could wait. Right now, my focus should be on the elders. I turned to face them, meeting each of their gazes one by one.They also had not gotten over the shock fr
Cassandra POV Wedding night... "I want more, too, Marcus," I replied. I had anticipated tonight wasn't our first time making love. However, this felt so different. I fit our body and so Intertwined together. Still gushing over our last session of lovemaking, I felt Marcus breathe on my neck as he muttered into my ears. " Your wish is my command, Luna." he slowly slips his tongue into my mouth. I couldn't help but savor every angle on his lips; it tasted like strawberry. " Hmm," I muttered as he slid his finger into my pussy. "Fuck!" I groaned. His expression changed in an instant. The intensity returned as his desire flared. He replaced one finger with two. Found the sensitive nub. I bucked and clenched, which made everything worse. “Come on.” I giggled “ Slow and steady my love.” His heated breath washed over my still-damp nipple. “I was not going to stop at one finger.” Surging up, he kissed my lips, parted them with his tongue, and thrust in rhythm with his finger
Cassandra’s POV I held my breath as I made entrance into the hall, anxious about the faces that I would meet with. But the decoration of the room left me breathless as I stared at the wonderful thing I had created. It seemed so perfect. The silver and gold designs had a soft glow under the torches, while the floral arrangement provided the royal elegance needed for the ceremony. After gawking at my handiwork, I started to notice how many eyes were on me and how quiet the hall was right now. Most of the faces were smiling with approval or admiration, while the others had disdain. They were barely masking all over their faces. I squared my shoulders and lifted my chin. This was my moment and so I shouldn't let anyone or any crazy thoughts steal it from me. I looked forward and saw Marcus waiting for me at the end of the aisle, waiting for me. A proud soft smile was on his face as he watched me. He looked devastatingly handsome in his ceremonial attire, not to add how s
Cassandra’s POV I smiled as I stood before the mirror, running my hands over the beautiful gold dress.It was nothing like whatever I had seen or touched; I wondered what fabric it was made of to make it look so elegant, royal, and beautiful.Goodness! I think I am obsessed.I looked like a goddamn queen, I am equal to what is called a queen, but in this dress, it felt like I had the world at my fingertips and I was the most feared and respected queen in the world.I swear this feels so surreal, I chuckled, How does one go from an ordinary orphan in the human world to the Luna of a werewolf kingdom? Now that I am looking back at it, this would make a great movie.Let's not even start with how I came to fall for Marcus, I placed my hand over my face and started giggling.I embarrassed myself for being impossible and throwing tantrums for a love I would later cherish.My children will have a heck of a story for their bedtime stories.My head jerked towards the door when I heard a knoc
Cassandra’s POV“I heard something about the rogues,” I said as I watched him walk to a desk at the corner of the room.He looked back and shrugged. “Guess nothing is a secret these days.”“That was supposed to be kept secret from me?” I asked genuinely confused.“No, I am just saying we discussed it in the courtroom so how did it end up outside the courtroom.”“ I am your Luna, so don't you think I might have an informant amongst the elders.” I teased “What do you need one for when you have me?” He teased back.“Because you are always busy.” I shrugged.“You could attend the meetings yourself too, you know.” He shrugged back“Not with what I have going on…so what happened with the rogues?’“Yeah. Bernard used them for his dirty work. Paid them a fortune to do his bidding, but now that he’s gone, they still want payment even if they are not doing anything for me.”“There is no way you can put them to good use?”“No, there are rogues.” Marcus scoffed.“That is very condescending.”“
That was hot”Marcus povI entered my modern room which was decorated with a Crimsy and Burgundy color interior.I had managed to leave Cassandra in the bathtub earlier asking her to get ready for me. I promise I won’t take long and I didn’t because I don’t want to miss the momentI saw my beautiful Luna sitting with her back against the headboard of the king-sized bed in sexy, bright red-colored lingerie. The top of the lingerie was barely covering her big Ass. Her round and full tits were spilling out of the cotton cloth, the sweet pink areolas of her tits peeking out slightly and giving just a hint of the softness that she was hiding under the thin red cloth.She was damm hot and full of romance with her sudden transformation She noticed my presence in the room and crept softly. Cassandra straightened and got on her knees and hands on the bed, facing me slowly while giving me a clear view of the valley between her boobs and what she had to offer. I swallowed hard with my li
I miss doing this Marcus’s PovIsn't it amazing? If I told you Cassandra is goddamn submissive now, enjoying the moment like never before? I watched her giving to my bidding and receiving each stroke and spreading her legs wider for me .I raised one of her legs on the desk immediately bending her waist without pulling out. This is my first time trying this style with Cassandra, and have always imagined doing this several times each time I see pornstars acting on it. Holy shit it’s crazier than I thought. I felt her garden closing up completely on my cock, and I tight creeping up.Cassandra had one leg down and the other on the deck while holding onto the wall and her backside shooting out to me. I bend her slowly standing like a mountaineer ready to climb a mountain with a ride.I flex my muscles involuntarily grabbing my sweet package for the ride.I filled up Cassandra's innermost, relishing every moment with much passion, burning like an ember of fire.Cassandra shook, holding
Marcus pov Enjoying every moment I missed.Cassandra tried to stop me but it was too late, I dragged the towel down her body revealing her snow-white dented skin with bubbles of water left in a few places .I bite my lower lip, feeding my eyes with the perfect body in front of me. Looking so delicate. It had been a while since I fed on her and I can’t deny I missed my baby so much She smirked at me covering her down part with her soft palm and tried to rush back to the bathroom hastily What’s she doing now? She can’t be shy now. I questioned in my head briefly. I caught up with her and turned her back towards my chest, shoving her silky hair off her face and murmuring in her ear“Cassandra, how many times have I been in and out of what you’re covering for me?” I asked naughtily nudging her ear softly “ You’re my Mate, a part of me and my Luna to crown it all! You will always be mine, Cassandra! I became more intense with my words, biting and sucking her ear lobes while sniffing
Cassandra’s POVBefore I could catch my breath, another maid was coming to ask me if she got the color palette right.I was not done responding to her before I got dragged to taste the cookies that would be served.I know I said I wanted to oversee things but I didn't mean I wanted to drown in the endless chaos.Every time I wanted to scream at someone and ask if they were really so dumb they couldn't figure that out by themselves, I tried my best to keep it in and be the model Luna and not Lilith's evil stepsister.I know nobody forced me into being a Luna, which is why I can't even complain, but why does it have to be this chaotic, exhausting, overwhelming, and time-consuming, leaving me little room to focus on what truly mattered? And what truly mattered was Marcus. We barely had time for each other anymore. He was constantly caught up in meetings with the council, overseeing the aftermath of Bernard’s reign, or dealing with pack politics. I couldn’t remember the last time w
Marcus’s POVThere were gasps here and there until they finally sat still and silent, processing what just happened.While others were scared that they might actually be the next.Ray collapsed forward, trembling violently and choking on his own blood. I rose slowly to my feet, my gaze sweeping over the other elders, who now looked more terrified than I thought they would.They must have been so disappointed to see I am not a pushover.“Let that be a lesson,” I said coldly. “The days of hiding behind lies and hypocrisy are over. If anyone else here thinks they can undermine me or my mate, speak now.” No one moved. No one even breathed. “Good,” I said softly, turning away from Ray’s broken, bleeding form. Cassandra’s gaze met mine and though there was shock in her eyes, she didn’t look away from me. She understood. And that was all that mattered.I returned to my throne elegantly and sat comfortably.“I am not done passing judgment, though; this is just round one.” I smiled, “
