…He caresses my check and I close my eyes and lean close so as to get more of his touch. "Catania, why is your pheromone doing this to me?" He asks calmly and this time around, I open my eyes. "Because… because you don't want to accept the…" my sentence is caught off by the feel of his lips colliding with mine. A thunder of emotions strike within me as he kisses me passionately, like he owns me, loves me. I return the kiss with all my might as I decide to forget everything that is going on and enjoy the moment. Without breaking the kiss, he gently pulls me into his big muscular arms and further intensifies the kiss. His lips are warm and soft. They are partly sighted, allowing my tongue to slip inside. Our bodies are pressed together heatedly as I our lips joined with each other's. I can taste our shared breath and feel the taste of our combined heartbeat. Warmth blossoms in my chest, igniting it as Alpha Nolan leans in close, with his lips brushing tentatively. This is my first kiss ever. The smell of his perfume is dizzying and it causes butterflies to dance in my stomach. My eyes are close and they seem to have gotten stuck. I want to open them, I want to get a better look at Alpha Nolan's dark brown eyes, I want to admire his crazy vampire hairline. I have the feeling this is never going to happen again and that this might even ruin what is left in my life, so I want to open my eyes and bear some witness but I can't, because I am so tired and his mouth is so soft… He cannot ignore the connection even if he wanted to…
View MoreCHAPTER FIFTY-FIVE.CATANIA'S POV.Alpha Nolan is long gone by the time I wake up, but I can still perceive his lingering scent over my body and my bed. I close my eyes and inhale heavily, smiling like an idiot when his sweet smell fills my nostrils and travels up to my brain. It triggers memories of the events that took place last night. He came in with maids and waited for me to shower. We ate dinner together and he tucked me in bed. He even kissed and stroked my hair. I hug myself with my eyes closed, reminiscing about how his strong arms held me tight on his chest last night.As much as all those gestures make me happy, they confuse me as well.During the day yesterday, he told me I was not his mate and that even if I was, he would never accept me because I'm still the prime suspect for Mia's murder. But after I threw a few tantrums by refusing to eat or accept the clothes he sent to me, he came by himself and made sure I showered, ate and then he put me in bed.He was gentle, so
CHAPTER FIFTY-FOUR.CATANIA'S POV.Thirty minutes later, there's a knock on the door and I immediately know it's Alpha Reagan and his servants again. Groaning, I rise from the bed and walk to the door. I swing it open with all my might, not even bothering to hide my irritation. Alpha Nolan's handsome face comes into view. The three servants who came a while ago are standing behind him. They don't look too pleased by what's going on.“So?” Asks Alpha Nolan. He’s asking to know if I’ve decided to be a good girl, or not. I roll my eyes and step away from the door. He makes way for the maids who come into the room. He steps in last and closes the door behind him. I look at him with surprised filled eyes.“Why are you coming in?”“I don't trust you not to throw another tantrum the moment I leave, so I'm going to stay here while you shower and we'll eat lunch together.”“No.” I instantly rebuke the idea. “I don't want you in here while I shower?”“Why not?” He asks with a creased brow. I wa
CHAPTER FIFTY-THREE.CATANIA'S POV.A few hours later, another knock sounds on the room door. I'm lying on the bed, tired of crying and I wish I could just mindlink the person to go away, but that's not possible. I have no idea who it is, so I grudgingly go over to the door and open it. Three servants, dressed in uniform smile at me and I get confused.“Good morning to you Miss Catania . We have come to serve you as instructed by Alpha Nolan.” One of the girls reports and I look at their hands. One of them is holding clothes. Another a tray of food and the next more clothes. I shake my head. Aroma from the food in the tray makes my intestines coil in my stomach, but my anger blocks it out.I am famished.But I'm also very mad at Alpha Nolan so I will not accept anything he offers me.“Thank you all, but I don't need these. Tell Alpha Nolan I will not be accepting any of these things he has sent for me.” I tell them as politely as I can and confusion grows on their faces. Before they
CHAPTER FIFTY-TWO.CATANIA'S POV.I'm still in deep thought when a knock sounds on my room door. I look up and contemplate for a while whether to open it or not and I finally make up my mind to open it. As I head to the door, I prepare myself to face whoever it is I see there.If it's Nolan, I'll give him the scolding of his life and shut the door to his face even though that's the last thing my mind and body wants me to do.When I swing the door open, I open my mouth to scream, expecting to see Nolan, but my words get stuck in my throat when I see the Beta, Nigel, standing before me with a worried look on his face. Disappointment washes over me like waves on a seashore.Fuck!“Beta Nigel.” I call, surprised. He flashes me a small smile.“Hello Luna.” I sigh heavily and tilt my head, giving him a side eye. I have told him time again not to address me as Luna, but he wouldn't listen.“How many times have I told you not to address me as such? I am not your Luna.” “Well… you are my Alph
CHAPTER FIFTY-ONE.CATANIA’S POV.I cried all day and night. The pack doctor checked on me like Alpha Nolan had said and I only ate because of the medications I had received even though I had no appetite. I still don’t. Alpha Nolan’s words have not left my mind. His wolf can’t sense my wolf so we are not not mates. The pack members won’t accept me because I’m a stealer and murderer. What nonsense!First of all, I did not kill my sister, so they have no reason to reject me as their Luna. Alpha Nolan keeps making baseless accusations. The day he finally finds out the truth about Mia’s death, he’d have to go on his knees and beg me to gain my forgiveness.Secondly, his wolf being unable to sense my wolf is not enough reason for him to deny the fact that we are mates. There is my pheromone which he has consented to being able to perceive and most importantly, the mate bond. I can feel it and I’m sure he can feel it too. I can’t help but think that he’s lying about not knowing we are ma
CHAPTER FIFTY.NOLAN’S POV.I shut the door behind me with all my might once I step into my office. I head straight to my wine bar when I take out a Copita and a bottle of liquor and slam both on the wine bar table. I need to burn all these ugly emotions tugging at my heartstrings right now. I need to wash them down before they suffocate me. I serve myself a shot of tequila and take it down in one. I shut my eyes close and groan as the liquor burns every inch of my mouth and its way down my throat into my stomach where it sets my abdomen on fire. I want more, so I take another shot and another and another and only stop when I hear the sound out of my office door swinging open. I don’t turn to see who it is because I know it's Nigel.“What’s going on?” He asks and the next thing I hear is footsteps coming towards me. I smile a little when I sense the worry in his voice.He is worried about me.He came to see me when I called.He still cares about me even though I’ve fucked up real bad
CHAPTER FORTY-NINE.CATANIA’S POV.I have been hearing a gentle voice in my sleep for a while now. My eyes snap open, but I quickly shut them close when harsh rays of sunlight, peering through the opened window almost gets me blind. I turn my face away from the window, to the other side where I'm sure there are no peeping sun rays before opening my eyes, but the sight before me hurts my eyes even more than the sun rays had done.Alpha Nolan is sitting on a stool before my bed, looking down at me with a small smile on his face. I blink in surprise. I look left and right to make sure this isn’t a dream.Alpha Nolan sitting by my bedside.Alpha Nolan smiling at me. Those two statements sound too good to be true.“Hey…” He calls softly. He is still smiling. I am still freaking out internally. I look back and forth, left and right to make sure I'm the one he’s talking to. When I see that there is no one else in the room, which means he is talking to me, I swallow dryly and look back at hi
CHAPTER FORTY-EIGHT.NOLAN’S POV.Two hours later, I was back in Catania’s bedroom where I found her sleeping peacefully. Right now I'm sitting on the stool before her, watching her sleep and it's the most surreal thing I have ever experienced. She is such a sleeping beauty and I can never get enough of her. I watch in amusement as her chest rises and falls gently with each breath she takes in and out. I feel like stroking her hair, but I'm scared she might wake up and if that happens, it’ll be weird because I don't know what my answer will be if she asks what I'm doing here. I don't know what I'm doing here.I had a long day which ended really badly and I'm supposed to be sleeping too because I have a lot of work to get on with tomorrow, but here I am, watching my mate sleep.“I hope you are thinking of ways to apologize to her for everything you’ve put her through.” Ander’s statement sends me into a bad mood. “I hope you now realise how blind you’ve been for not seeing what was so o
CHAPTER FORTY-SEVEN.NOLAN’S POV.I have been pacing about my office for almost one hour now with a million thoughts swimming in my mind. I am worried, mad at myself and confused at the same time. I just found out my mate is the girl whom I have done nothing but maltreated this whole time. To think she insisted. She kept telling me that we were mates, that her sister was the imposter, but I chose to believe her sister over her. I’m scared as fuck.I don't know how to go about doing things. I don't know if I should tell her I now know we are mates and spend the rest of my life begging for forgiveness or if I should let everything be as there.“Fuck!” This is frustrating!“Alpha Nolan!” A voice calls through mind-link, jabbing me out of my thoughts and I quickly halt on my tracks and close my eyes to respond. “Yes, what happened?”“It’s Alpha Kai, he has gone into a manic episode. The doctors are trying to calm him down.” The voice reports in panic. I instantly block the mind link and
CHAPTER ONE.CATANIA’s POV.I have been gazing at the elegant red dress on my bed for more than thirty minutes now with so much glee in my heart that I can hardly contain it.Today is the day!Today is my eighteenth birthday and to think that is not enough, it is the day of the ceremony where my wolf will be activated and I will be able to live like a normal full born werewolf.I am so excited.I pick up the dress from my bed and walk over to my mirror stand when I place it before me and imagine how perfect it's going to be once I put it on. Since no one seems to be excited about my birthday, I have taken it upon myself to stay happy and positive, because I know that after this ceremony, once my wolf will be awakened, things will change for the better.That I believe.Now, you must be wondering what I mean, but not to worry, you will soon find out and once you do, you will understand why I have such high hopes for this night.The sound of my room door opening snaps me out of my though
