ASTRID.Two days have passed by in a blur, I left Switzerland with a chilly feeling. That was it, we would never collide again, we might probably never see each other again, I don’t even know where his pack is, I really want to believe that the woman isn’t his mate or Luna, but I just can’t.He tried to apologize, but can I really forgive him? He hurt me, he rejected me without giving me a proper reason, we were supposed to be together, but he threw that all away and I just can’t seem to forget that. Maybe one day, he can tell me why he rejected me.But, I don’t even think that day will come.I tapped my pen on the stack of papers; I am stuck in my office for hours now trying to attend all the meetings I have missed for two days. The cup of steaming coffee sits there untouched.The door cracks open and my kids come bursting in, Leora kicking her legs at me.“Mommy.” She purses her lips together, before walking over to me. I stood up from my seat before crouching to her level.“Honey,
LOGAN.No place can ever compare to home, you can be at a luxurious villa and have fancy furniture, but it could never feel like home, for instance like right now.The bed of my villa in Canada that I am lying on feels so stiff and cold. My body is heavy with fatigue, just this morning; I have traveled all across the states, dined with billionaires, and faked laugh at their horrible jokes. There’s nothing worse than that.I throw away the jacket of my suit and tie at the edge of the chair, before slumping on the bed. After seven years of being a CEO for a fast leading company, I never got to stay home, been traveling from country to country, building houses, establishing business deals.Went on dates that were super irrelevant.My branches are built in various countries, and I like to host my interviews myself, so that’s why I am here in Canada, in my villa. The interview starts at nine so I have got thirty minutes to chill.My phone is ringing and I groan. Did I not turn that to airp
ASTRID. Being an Alpha means party, party and more party. I don’t like socializing, but as an Alpha, what choice do I have? Currently, I am in another pack celebrating the coronation party of this Alpha I don’t even know, but when you are handed an invitation, you have no choice. Moving around with a glass of wine and pretending like everything is okay is not what I like to do. So, I do what I always do, I stand in the far end corner of the room, sitting, observing and sipping wine. No one even notices I am here, I watch as people move around in party dresses, faces smeared with make-up, while I just stay here. “You know.” Diva walks over to me with a frown, “If you keep on doing this, you won’t get laid by any man. You have to be free, baby girl. Go, kiss some men, have your needs pleasured.” Diva smiles and I smile back. I am glad that Diva has decided to come along to this party in this pack, though now I am thinking about my kids. Leor has been doing well in his studies, but
ZEKE.She leads me to a corridor, before shoving me into a room, why does it have to be a bedroom? I just came to this party because Thane couldn't make it, and I had to replace him, but then she walked over to me and grabbed my shirt.She kissed me.Seven fucking years, I have not being kissed, and that kiss blew me away, the taste of her soft lips on mine. She smells like something so good, like heaven, not sure if heaven has a smell but if it does. It would be her.But, why did she kiss me? Why did she leave me wanting more?She begins to pace in the room. I locked the door and leaned on the wall, “Start talking.”She turned towards me, taking a deep breath, her golden flecks apologetic. She explains everything from the beginning. She used me to please some women.“I shouldn’t have done that, I am sorry.” She bowed her head.I recoil in shock. She did it, she kissed me, and I want more, fuck.“You do know that the kiss got on camera. The press are going to start asking questions, A
ASTRID.The moment I came back from the party, I attended the council meeting. They don’t like the fact that I kissed a ‘man’, but they seemed happy enough when I told them we were together. I think they even started planning our wedding.I am in my room now, watching how time passes, I checked my phone, the news of us is booming online, I don’t think the internet cares about me, they just care about Zeke Rossi and his millions of followers.Comments are coming in fast. Heck, a thousand in two hours? More pictures, some sites are making up stories about our kiss at the party. I stare at the comments, reading and scrolling through them. I sighed, while rubbing the heart shaped pendant on my chest. Am I anxious about tonight? Yes, I am so anxious. What was I thinking when I kissed him? I rubbed my eyes tiredly. Kai hasn’t said a word to me, he definitely saw the kiss, but on our way, he was mostly quiet, sometimes it is frustrating when he remains quiet, I mean. Why won’t he just say
ASTRID. “Where’s everyone?” I say, taking gentle steps towards him. The large table is surrounded with chairs, the food on the table makes my mouth water, I was expecting to see Madam Yv and Gus, but where are they? “Gus and Madam Yv aren't in the pack-house currently.” He says, tapping his fork on the table. He turns towards me, dark blue eyes roaming around my clothes. He inhales heavily. “Only Katherine will join us later.” That means for half of this dinner, we are going to spend it together? I gulp down whatever fear is forming at the baseline of my throat before taking a seat. “The chef made the food a bit traditional; I hope it’s to your liking.” I stare at the Spanish food, my stomach suddenly grumbling. “Thank you.” I pick up the meat with the fork, and shoved it in my mouth, my taste buds waters at the flavor. I pick up the glass of wine, taking an entire gulp. All this while, his eyes watch me with some sort of twinkle. After shoving more food into my mouth, I wipe my
ZEKE.An unknown prickling feeling hovers around me as I take the steps to my room. The cold night air blasts me hard. Today is supposed to be like any other day, but with her presence in my pack-house. It’s not any other day.I run my hands through my already messy hair, trying to tousle the strands in place. My phone chimes in my pocket, groaning. I stare at the message from my brother.Logan: You scum, why didn’t you tell me you have seen Astrid?Zeke: Funny, I didn’t think you would care.His text comes almost immediately.Logan: You bastard! Does it make us equal if I tell you Juniper is now my assistant?I stare at the screen for a longer time, my mind running. Juniper? My brother has seen Juniper? Wow, I stare at the screen, while pushing the knob to my bedroom. I pause when I see someone I don’t wish to see.Groaning, I type.Me: Will call later.I shoved the phone into my pocket. “Please, stop sneaking into my bedroom, it’s a crime.” I have told her many times, but she never
ASTRID.I groan in my sleep, trying to force my eyes open, I think of sleeping a little more, ignoring all my schedules for today, but then the reality that I am in Zeke’s pack strikes me, and I force my eyes open with a jolt.The room isn’t familiar, because I am not in my pack. This is Zeke’s pack. I stare at the room, my hands gripping the duvet so roughly. I stand up from the bed, walking into the bathroom.I wash my face with cold water from the sink, staring at my reflection in the mirror. Is this a good idea? Posing as his fake girlfriend? Why in the hell did I go too far?Soon, posts and questions on the internet will question my sanity, I should be ready for this, after all I caused this. After brushing my teeth and slipping into the shower. I changed into the clothes Zeke got me.My pathetic heart can’t be helped but touched, but why is he doing all of this? Does he think he can plead my forgiveness? My heart flutters with something unknown. I pick the dress and put it on, b
Thank you for following me throughout Astrid and Zeke’s story, they finally got their happy ever after! Though I am not sure whether to write about Leora and Hendrix’s story, they had a wild start throughout the story, if you want to hear about their story, you can do well to let me know in the comments and I will consider the possiblity of a sequel about Leor, Leora and Hendrix when they are all grown up.Please check out my other werewolf romance book, ‘Fated To Her Ruthless Alpha,’ and I promise you won’t be disappointed. Love,Rae-Rae.
LEORA.Age-16It’s been ten years since I last saw him. It’s funny how time flies so fast, one time I was just a little girl with a loving brother and a best-friend and now, I am getting ready to receive my acceptance letter into the academy.My family, especially my overprotective brother, Leor doesn’t want me searching for Hendrix; they say the past is all in the past. But, I need to see him; I need to see the ten year old boy who saved the six year old me. It’s like every time I close my eyes, I am transported back to that day, the contempt in his eyes when he looked at me was unmatched. My family killed his mother because they were trying to protect me, but every day I am secretly searching for him. I still wear the ruby necklace everywhere, anytime I rub the edges, it reminds me of him.How does he look now? How does he act? Will he still remember me? Does he still hate me? I will keep trying to search for him and when I see him, there’s countless things I want to say to him
ASTRID.I watch with widened eyes as Freya turns, but Zeke is gliding the knife into her back. She lets out a tortured scream, falling to her knees as blood gathers around her dark dress.My daughter is right here, safe with me. Hendrix yells loudly, rushing towards his mother, we all stare as he crouches to her level and cup her chin.“Mother?” He says fearfully, “Mother, you are bleeding. We have to get you to the hospital, please now. Mother, you can’t leave me.”“My sweet Hendrix, they took everything away from us. They killed me, they are the enemy, revenge my death.” She closes her eyes slowly, and Hendrix yells painfully, his hands covered in her blood.Freya is on the floor, unmoving. We did it, we killed her, and now, she won’t hurt anybody again.Slowly, Hendrix rises to his knees. “You killed her,” He mumbles darkly, “You killed my mother! I won’t let you get away with this, never.”It breaks my heart to say this, but I have to. “Arrest him.” I turn towards the guard, it’s
ZEKE.I am already barging out of the door.I have a son.I have a daughter.I have children, and I never knew about them for seven fucking years, that’s a lot of gap. I am a father, the more I say it out loud, the more it gets harder to believe. And now my daughter is missing.Preston follows behind us, and Astrid is beside me. I can’t even bring myself to look at her, but for now. I have to make sure my daughter is safe.“What’s going on in the hall?” I ask Preston as we walk hastily towards the hall.“I don’t know. A woman with dark hair is here and she wants to see you, we already moved everyone to the courtyard including Leor, though he seems very concerned. The woman is waiting for you in the hall.” Preston says.I open the door of the hall and what I see makes my mouth run dry, a woman with dark hair wearing a cocktail dress is nails deep into a man’s chest. I watch, frozen, how she sinks her nails into the person’s chest and squeezes the person’s heart. The person’s body pales
ASTRID.It’s the day. The day where vows are taken, the day that two people choose to love each other, in sickness and in everything. The day that changes everything.The pack-house is bustling with Omegas getting the wedding hall ready, Madam Yv and Gus’ mother are giving instructions for the wine and caviar. I have a feeling that they are going to get pretty drunk today, well I doubt so. This is Diva’s wedding. Everyone has been looking forward to it.Nothing is supposed to ruin the happy day except I had a dream overnight about the wedding, blood, knife stabs, running. It was so blurry to see and then I woke up, not even understanding a thing.“Mommy!” Leora’s sweet voice bounces me out of my thoughts. I look at my daughter who is now running towards me, her pink jittery dress flowing, my baby girl is the flower girl. When she reaches me, her brown hair is pinned in pigtails, her light blue eyes watch me.I am fascinated by the resemblance between her and her father, Zeke. Right, t
LOGAN.If someone told me that being with somebody could spark this much reaction out of me, I would have smacked them right in the face, because I always feel like I can generate happiness by doing lots of things that did not involve mingling with people.But, this sort of happiness...The one that hits so differently, people say love comes in tiny bits, but this love just hits me like a shockwave and now, as I look at Juniper, I know that there’s nobody I will rather spend my life with than this woman over here. “Hey, Logan?” She asks, swinging her hands that are entwined in mine. I don’t like petty things, such as holding hands, but as long as it’s Juni, I don’t really mind. We are walking hand in hand along the sea, earlier; she suggested we go for a walk just to calm ourselves down. “Yes, Juni?” I ask back and she grins, and I swear, this woman can make my heart squeeze just by smiling, she lights up my world. She brings out the sunshine in my darkness. The sky is just beginning
GUS.It’s one thing to open the door and see someone you actually know and the other to open the door to Cleo. What’s she doing here? Is the first question that comes to mind.She never comes here, so why is she here suddenly?I can’t deny the fact that my lips feel dry to the core. “Yes,” My voice comes out lamely as I stretch open the door and watch her step into the villa. I can’t deny the fact that her perfume wafts into my nostrils as she passes by.I lead her to the living room, “You can have a seat. Do you want anything? Coffee? Tea? Biscuits?”She sits down, staring around in wonder, but then her eyes soften, “I am okay, thanks.”I take a seat beside her, trying my best to create distance between us on the couch. She senses this and her face falls. I shouldn’t be doing this, letting her in the house is a red flag. If Zeke walks in right now, he will send her sprawling out, but considering the fact that I am the only here in the house, I should just hear her out.I want closure,
CLEO.Katherine stares out the window, looking dazed, whenever we come to coffee shops, she always picks the seat near the window. One time I tried asking her about it, and her reply shocked me.“Staring out the window at the numerous people passing by is just calming, you see someone walk by, but you don’t know what they are going through, I try to imagine the pain they are carrying about.” She had said.There are two mugs of coffee, barely untouched, and a plate of two grilled turkey sandwiches. Katherine has eaten a part of hers, but mine is untouched. I just don’t feel like eating, maybe because the anticipation that’s curling in the pit of my stomach is enough to make me weak.We are waiting for two more people, they are always late, I don’t know why but it just irks me when people come late.The door chimes and Katherine’s eyes bob towards the entrance, Kai walks in, he’s dressed casually in a t-shirt and sweatpants, he doesn’t bother with the greetings, he just takes the chair
ASTRID.I bite my lips, staring into his darkened blue eyes, I want this so much.“Go down on your knees, baby and take my cock into that gorgeous mouth of yours.” His command runs down my spine and I obey, going down on my knees, I unzip his trousers and take out his cock.Slowly, I slid it down my throat, until I hit the point where my eyes water, I whimper, before falling in length, licking and sucking until I am drenched.“Fuck, baby.” Zeke’s hand digs into my hair and yanks me deeper. “That feels so good,”My body pulses with need, as his groan fills the car, there’s something so powerful in having Zeke Rossi at my mercy, I increase my pace, driving him harder into my mouth, just when I am about to go deeper, he yanks my hair back, pulling me away from him.“You are going to be the end of me,” He mumbles darkly, before pushing me on the leather seat and towering above.“You should have thought of the consequences before putting this dress on tonight,” His hands move to the zipper
