Alpha Daniel's POV “You need to sell her off," Luna said to me. ‘The sooner the better’ was what she added. I don't know what she meant by that, I hoped it wasn't what I was thinking, I really hoped it wasn't. I ignored her trying to focus on the papers that I was working on concerning the new construction site we were supposed to put up for the pack . It was still being built and there was a lot of work still to be done before the project could officially start. The job wasn't easy but neither was I. “Daniel, did you listen to anything I just said?” Luna asked exasperatedly. She leaned against my desk and looked at me expectantly. I sighed and closed my eyes. I knew she wouldn't stop so I gave in. I engaged her in the conversation knowing that I still needed to do something about this whole situation before things got out of hand. “Who are we talking about?” I didn't open my eyes to look at her when I answered. I had already given into enough today as it was. I couldn't afford
Aurora's POV Today I went out with Jade we were taking a walk around the pack and she showed me all of her favorite places. Alpha Daniel was yet to find out more about the people who attacked me but I had seen how hard he was working. These days he has been checking up on me like he had promised and I have been trying to keep my distance. It was hard, very hard, there were times when I almost told him that I was in love with him but somehow I held myself back...I think it took everything in me to not tell him that. The thought of having to lie to him made me sick. But it wouldn't be fair to do that to him or Luna. I noticed how his eyes would linger on my lips longer than usual and the way he would look at me after every conversation. It was as if there was something there, something that would never happen and I couldn't tell if it was all imagining it because I desperately wanted it to happen or if he actually felt something for me...but then again, it doesn’t feel right to tell
Aurora’s POV “How could you girls know he was right there and none of you said anything about it?” I asked them, still feeling angry as I returned home. I was pacing back and forth in front of the door. My heart was beating hard, my hands were shaking, and my eyes burning with tears that bluntly refused to fall. The anger that had been building up over the past few hours now boiled over and threatened to erupt all at once. I couldn’t take this anymore and if they had only told me sooner then maybe we could have- I could have avoided him. “How are we supposed to tell you that your former mate was around getting you to react like this? You would have done that one way or the other” “Shut up Layla! fucking shut up!” I yell through gritted teeth. “It doesn’t matter what I do. I am so sick of always being on edge, but I had you guys and you were supposed to make my life easier, especially Sia! I don't want to hear a word from any of you again!” This time none of them said anything an
Alpha Daniel’s POV Aurora and I sat there drinking and giggling about anything and everything and I could swear that the alcohol was starting to kick in in our system because we were feeling so carefree. We laughed at each other until our stomachs hurt. I had never felt so carefree, so relieved, and so normal, in a long time. It wasn’t just the drink that made me feel like this but more so the fact that Aurora was sitting next to me and looking beautiful as always. She was wearing a black dress, which complimented her golden skin well. She had helped me ease the tension and tonight I wasn't thinking of the pack or the pressure that came with being Alpha, all I thought of was how lucky I was. To be able to sit beside Aurora and laugh about things that made you happy rather than worrying about them was amazing. “I didn't think I'd laugh so much today, talk more of this evening”, she admitted. She looked at me through her lashes and I saw her lips curved into that smile that I adore
Aurora’s POV Fireworks, butterflies, Sparks, and electric bolts danced through my body when I placed my lips against Alpha Daniel’s. I had thrown caution to the wind and his lips felt even way better than I had imagined. He pulled me closer as our tongues battled for dominance. He might mine with slow wicked lapses, pulling me into a realm of passion. I clung to his neck, letting it consume me until he pulled away. We stared at each other with dark, lustful eyes. “Fuck... should we go inside?” he asked me and I nodded gingerly. His hands lingered on my arms and my heart pounded in anticipation of what was coming next. We stumbled into the dimly lit apartment. He closed the door behind us and I couldn't wait any longer as my lips returned to kissing him furiously. I tugged at his shirt, wanting more. He pushed back against me, hard, pushing me down until we managed to make it to the room. I gasped loudly as his hand found its way under my dress, caressing my breast before moving
Alpha Daniel's POV As I thrusted into her and watched her wince in pain and I waited patiently for her to get accustomed to my size. “Are you okay?” I asked and she nodded as tears formed in her eyes. “Are you sure you don’t want me to stop?” I asked again and she nodded. She gripped my shoulders tighter and closed her eyes and moaned at the contact of my length against hers. Her nails dug into my skin a little bit and she was panting, but she was still gripping me. I pushed into her gently for what seemed like forever until I reached a slow and gentle rhythm that sent tingles across her body and made her toes curl. “More” she begged while wriggling beneath me and I obliged by taking more. It took all my willpower not to push past her tight walls and bury myself inside her because she smelled so good but my job was to make this one experience last a while, and if she was willing then it had to be good enough. “Please” she begged when our pace slowed and I felt her tremble beneat
Aurora’s POV I sat there dazed for a moment, unable to move, unable to think. The room was cold, my body numb as I caught my reflection in the mirror beside my bed, my eyes wide and unblinking as they stared out at me, as though in shock. My mouth hung slightly open as if frozen in a gasp as I slowly turned my head away from myself. Shame washed over me like a tidal wave of disgust and shame, an emotion so intense that I felt as though it were physically draining me from my very soul. I closed my eyes tight, trying desperately to block out what I knew was inevitable— I couldn't even process what had just happened. What I'd done. How could I have been such a fool to allow myself this? To think for one second to believe that I had some sort of relationship with him! That he could be mine! I felt my heart sink lower than it already had. He would always despise me now. How could I have hurt Camille? I know she didn't like me, the permanent glare on her face when it came to me made th
Aurora’s POV I was running through an unfamiliar path, there was someone chasing me and I had no idea who it was. They weren't human. The smell of their flesh made my stomach lurch, I tried to push on, not looking back but they were relentless in pursuing me. I knew what I had to do, as a precautionary measure. When the man appeared I could hardly process what was happening. He tackled me, I screamed as his arms squeezed around me so tight that if he hadn't been so tall I would've been squished. I managed to free myself from him and take a few steps back before turning around. My breathing was coming out in gasps and the adrenaline rush had disappeared, leaving me feeling exhausted.
