What the fuck just happened? Blaze thought.
‘She likes us, you dimwit!’ Bash chimed in while stirring around gleefully in Blaze’s mind.
‘She likes me, not you.’ He teased his wolf.
‘We’ll see who she likes more.’ Bash teased back.
‘Challenge accepted!’ He shook his head at his own idiocy but he would never back down from a challenge.
Blaze joined Lilith in bed. He lay down beside her before turning on his side to face her. She had her hands curled under her right cheek.
With his eyes locked on hers, they both fell into a comfortable silence.
Feeling the after-effects of the injection, Lilith’s eyelids grew heavier a while later.
Blaze rubbed her arm and waited for her to fall asleep but he ended up dozing off.
Lilith bit her lower lip to stop the chuckle fighting its way up her throat when he simply fell asleep.
She took this time to stare at his fa
Katherine brought us some food from the pack house, some spicy chicken sandwiches, some French fries, and some lemonade. Raine actually asked her to make these for Lilith since she needed to get better.Blaze didn’t get how a piece of strawberry cake could make Lilith feel better. He didn’t get one. Katherine told him that it was for her and not for him which sucked!They ate their lunch quicker than usual considering it was way past the time they should have eaten something.Blaze finished first, setting his plate on the coffee table and watching her finish off her last couple of bites.There was a difference in the way she was holding herself.He never noticed it until now.Her shoulders were always straight.Whether she was standing, laying or even leaning forward while having food downstairs, her shoulders were always back as if she was always on guard around him.But now as she hovered over her plate, scraping
Lilith shook her head before chuckling.“Do you mind letting Blaze come through?” She asked Bash politely.Bash whined but reluctantly let Blaze get back into control.‘That was the shittiest remark I’ve ever heard in my entire life.’ Blaze commented on Bash’s weird and kinky remark.‘Whatever.’ His wolf growled unsatisfactorily.“Sorry about that.” Blaze apologized on Bash’s behalf.“It’s okay.” She said with a nod.“Mind if we lay down?” He slowly asked her, afraid of what her response would be like.Her response was… better than he thought it would be.She surprisingly pulled him until they were both laying down, his chest to her back as she put his arm around her waist.He pressed his back against the back of the couch and pulled her closer, his hand held firmly over her stomach.“Don’t you
The next week went by with both of them keeping their distance yet they both repetitively lost against the mate bond, sneaking into rooms at night just to cuddle and sleep next to each other.The first night Blaze sneaked into her room and bed, he knew that he was testing his limits since Lilith warned him that she wanted to take things slow between them but he couldn’t resist it.He couldn’t sleep alone in his room when he could feel Lilith shifting around in her bed trying to sleep.Blaze’s wolf needed to feel Lilith. He couldn’t stay away from her despite knowing that touching an untouchable was a sin, he couldn’t help but sin again and again.He was so ready to commit this sin.His dilemma was entirely erased when she unconsciously hugged him to sleep.The next night, it was her turn to sneak into his room.At first, Blaze froze in surprise when he felt her presence inside his room.But, he rel
Blaze’s wolf stirred anxiously. His antics made him zone out on his father’s explanation regarding an important paper. Alpha Cole sighed angrily when he noticed Blaze’s absent-mindedness. His father snapped his fingers in front of his face to get his attention. “What’s wrong?” He narrowed his eyes into calculative slits at Blaze. “How many times should I tell you to listen well when I’m talking to you?” He asked, using his commanding voice on Blaze. Blaze felt the blood rushing to his head and heard his own pulse beating in his ear. He felt his hatred level for him rising. “Blaze, look at me. Are you even listening to me?” His eyes flashed dangerously, reminding Blaze who he was in the pack, the Alpha. Blaze hissed in pain when he felt a scalding pain spread across his arm. The sharp ache shook his whole body. ‘Something is wrong with Lilith,’ Bash exclaimed alarmingly. Blaze couldn’t think about anythin
Joining Katherine in the kitchen, Lilith’s nose tingled with the mingling scents of the coffee in her mug on the table and the herbs Katherine was using to prepare breakfast. “Good morning.” Lilith breathed deep, the smell of damp earth and evergreen tickling her nose as she opened the kitchen window. “Good morning.” Katherine frowned at Lilith’s weird actions. Lilith’s eyes immediately shot open when she sensed rogues lurking behind the house. A strange anger built up within her at the familiar scent of rogues. “There are rogues.” She declared. Katherine froze when she heard Lilith’s words. She was confused. How come she didn’t feel anything? Closing her eyes and using her wolf instincts to check on her surroundings, she gasped. “There really are rogues out there.” Katherine voiced out. “Quick, you need to warn the pack members.” Lilith stated when Katherine kept staring at her in surprise. “How did you
Together, Blaze and Lilith stayed clear of the pack’s tracks as they ran across the trees. They stopped once in a while only for Blaze to check for any possible threats around their surroundings and for Lilith to catch her breath.Dried up leaves crushed underneath their feet but at this point, they couldn’t care less about the noises they were making. They were on a mission and they were set on completing it.Blaze was half pulling her and half running at a moderate speed to match her steps.He made sure not to tighten his grip around her hand since his claws had extended out, his wolf forcing him to half-shift.Bash couldn’t stay still when Blaze had to use his energy to outsmart the rogues and pack scouts. He wanted to help him get Lilith to a safer place.Lilith stole a glance at Blaze.She was finally outside and yet, she didn’t have time to appreciate the beauty of the nature around her.She
Standing on her porch, Patricia stopped pacing around once she caught sight of Blaze and Lilith running down the pathway leading to her house. “I’ve been waiting for you, guys,” said Patricia.Growing up, Lilith always imagined witches to be ugly-looking old hags dressed in black robes and pointed hats. And, like a warlock, they performed evil and wicked magical spells.Well, wasn’t that everyone’s fantasy of witches?But this woman standing in front of them didn’t match the image in her mind at all. Even the broom was missing.Blaze didn’t miss the disappointment crossing Lilith’s face.“I’ll hate to burst your bubble but Patricia is a good witch.” He whispered into her ear.He shook his head with a snicker when she scowled at him.“But, be careful around her. Piss her off and she might as well become a dark fantasy. An image you would wish to erase from yo
After making Lilith drink the potion that Patricia had asked Blaze to give her, they journeyed back home.He could already feel a change in Lilith’s scent. Whatever that potion was, it would conceal her scent for a week before she would have to drink another one.Dusk was already falling when they had reached Patricia’s house. If they didn’t take any break, they would reach the pack before dawn.But, it was night-time and the forests which they had to cross back over, were darker at night.The darkness wasn’t a problem for Blaze but Lilith could see nothing at all.She felt completely blinded.She nearly shit her pants when she felt his grip on her hand loosening. “Don’t let go of my hand.” There was a hint of a whine in Lilith’s voice as she tightened her fingers around his hand.“Just give me a second.” Blaze uttered as he waited for her to unclasp her fingers from his hand
She needed him. Now. No waiting. “Blaze,” she moaned his name, urging him to hurry up. The broad head of his dick pushed at her, and she hooked her other leg around his waist, opening herself to him more fully. With steady pressure, Blaze worked his way in, his eyes never leaving hers. “I love you, Lilith.” “I love you, too, Blaze.” He began to move, slowly at first, then more aggressively, until she was forced to grip the edge of the mattress. The bed squeaked, an erotic chorus to their small sounds and whispered words of love. Reaching between them, he found her clit and strummed the little bundle of nerves, gently at first and then faster. Her orgasm rolled over her and dragged her under. She couldn’t see, couldn’t breathe, couldn’t hear and didn’t care. Wave after wave of pleasure rocked her as he refused to let up on the pressure on her clit until a second orgasm took her and she cried out. He followed her over the edge, burying his face in her neck to muffle his shout.
Aria hugged Lilith for one last time before she stepped back. “Thank you for everything, Lilith.”“Shush,” Lilith shook her head at Aria when she sensed her about to start crying.Aria was leaving the pack forever but she wouldn’t be alone. Chris would be with her.She glanced at her mate with a weak smile when he slipped his hand in Aria’s right hand, interlacing their fingers.Chris squeezed her hand tight to reassure Aria that no matter what happens, he would be with her, always and forever.Aria wasn’t sad that she was leaving the pack except for the fact that she would miss her mother and Lilith. She was looking forward to a new start.This was also a way for her to repent. She couldn’t even look at Lilith in the eyes after what she did to her.Alpha Blaze was nice enough to spare her life after all the crimes she committed.The moment she crossed the pack borders, she felt her bond with the pack sever. It was so sudden that she jerked in reaction.Chris wrapped an arm around her
His mother walked inside the awfully smelling cell and looked straight at Aria who was shackled to the wall.If there wasn’t any remnants of his mate’s scent, Blaze would have puked at the disgusting smell.“Got anything else out of her?” Ignoring the odor, Blaze asked Eric, the warrior who had been assigned for the questioning.“All she kept saying is that she would kill our Luna. She even dared threaten the Luna herself while she was interrogating her.” Eric replied.A chill embraced Blaze as he heard those words.“How come no one was aware of her planning an attack and her escape? How did she even get a weapon when she was imprisoned, and the poison?” Blaze questioned.Eric shrugged, “We suspect it must be someone from her family unless one of our warriors is a traitor.”“None of our warriors know Aria. You might be right about her family. It must be someone from her family but who?” Blaze wondered.“I know who it is,” His mother interrupted.Blaze quickly looked in her direction a
The night before, Mary got a dream about a she-wolf being imprisoned in the dungeons.She knew that the she-wolf had a connection to her in some sort since she got a glimpse of a person dressed in a black cloak passing something over to her through the metal bars.She couldn’t see their faces. He had her back to her and was blocking Mary’s sight of the she-wolf.That she-wolf was planning her escape and this man would help her get away.Mary felt her heart literally stopped when the man walked away and she got to see who was imprisoned inside. It was Aria.She woke up with a start. After a while of just sitting there, she glanced at the clock to see that it was already six in the morning.She hated that she was a soothsayer.Most nights, she wasn’t able to get enough sleep because these dreams would come to her. She would get glimpses of events that would come her way through her dreams. But, she only got the ones which related to her as in to her physical form.Why would she dream ab
“Looking for me?” Lilith jumped, turning so fast her hair flew around and over her shoulder. Ruzek grinned at her. Lilith smiled back at him. “Hey,” she waved. Ruzek mimicked, finding it adorable. “About the work you said we had to do…” He trailed off when he noticed Lilith glancing around them with searching eyes. Lilith suddenly remembered what she had to do. Find Blaze but where was he? “Yeah,” she looked around, “what about it?” “I won’t be free during the day.” Ruzek said with a frown as he tried to discern what Lilith was searching for or whom she was actually searching for. It must be Blaze, Ruzek thought as he caught the Alpha talking to his Beta. Lilith turned to look at Ruzek, but his eyes were fixed at something behind her. Before she could turn to look, she felt Blaze. She felt his presence, her skin prickling with an invisible force of attraction towards him. It was the mate bond doing its magic and not to forget, Lucy was siding with the mate bond as well thes
New energy and optimism strived inside Lilith as the bells rang. The sun peeked brightly through the thick clouds. Pack members stood in line, cheering and hooting names as Ruzek, the nine men and the omegas were asked to come forward.It was the day, the day Lilith had been anticipating with anxiety but great expectations. She was sure the omegas would make great efforts to accomplish deserving respect for themselves.Lilith trained them for two consecutive nights. It was hard but it was not impossible.Her parents came over to help her. Together, they tried the technique both Lilith and Ruzek planned out and it worked out.It was finally time for the battles which Cole had organized for the omegas and rogues. It was to determine their new ranks within the packs.Lilith could feel the nervousness radiating off the omegas while the rogues just appeared indifferent and ready to fight for a higher and well-earned rank within the pack.Jenny, on the other hand, seemed a little bit nervou
A few days had gone by. Lilith got three more missions which she accomplished in no time. The training was going well. Ruzek, Jenny and the nine other men were ready for the battle which the former Alpha prepared for them. The omegas needed to be trained some more. They got a lot better in self-defense but their fighting techniques still needed to be improved. There were only two days left though before the week would be over. Worried and tensed, Lilith glanced around the great valley and went through all the specific trainings she gave them. She wondered where she went wrong. Deep in thought, she didn't notice Ruzek approaching her until he spoke. "What are you doing here all alone?" He looked up at the sky. The sun had dipped below the horizon, the last gasp of beauty before the death of the day. Lilith took a moment to look at the setting sun before saying with a shrug, "I've just been thinking about a few things." "Like what?" Ruzek asked out of curiosity. "I’m worried I
“It’s great to see you all here. We’ll start by running twenty-five times around the valley but in your human forms.” Lilith began by pointing at the running trail that surrounded the boundaries of the great valley. “I’ll see who can run all twenty-five rounds. The ones who give up after a few rounds can come stand in this spot. The ones, who complete it all, will do the next task.” Lilith explained further. She thought there would some complaints from the omegas but they were all ready. They seemed determined to complete all twenty-five rounds. Ruzek, the leader of the rogues and the nine other rogues were the first to head over to the starting point. The omegas soon followed them. “Come on!” When Lilith blew the whistle, they started running at a slow pace. Lilith looked at them with satisfaction. The great valley was the largest training ground in the Blood Moon pack. It stretched away ahead of where Lilith was standing for miles. The continuous line of the trail was lost amo
The rogue's eyes flashed with rage. It seemed like a wild beast was standing in front of Lilith and not someone who was once an Alpha. He clenched his right hand and swung his arm at Lilith, but she blocked his punch at the last second. Lilith wasn't there to kid around. She had to complete her task and be done with it by this evening. He narrowed his eyes down at her, pissed that he wasn't able to hit her. "Surprised?" She raised an inquiring eyebrow at him while her lips tugged up into a smirk. He pulled his fisted hand free before sneering at her with anger lacing his tone, "You got lucky, you bitch!"In a snap of moment, Lilith’s power leashed at the leader and she grabbed him by the neck before slamming him into a wall. "What did you say?" How dare you call me a bitch?" Lilith's jaw contorted with anger as she seized him by the throat, stifling his screams and pleas. His expression darkened, and the color drained from his face as he realized that he made a grave mistake cha
