The following weeks went without a hitch. Rome has been trying to figure out the origin of my necklace. Our relationship had improved a lot. We spent all our free time together and had our meals together. I was living a life straight out of a fairytale. He paid attention to the littlest of details and went all out for me. I never thought I would say this but Rome was different from everything I believed him to be and I felt differently for him now. It wasn't love. It was too soon for that but it was something similar. I stretched in bed and rolled out. my muscles felt worn out. Rome had kept me awake all night. I don't know where he found the energy to get up so early but he was fine before I woke up. The chance that we would have breakfast together was 50-50. I got up and took a quick shower before changing into my training clothes. The hallways were nearly empty as I made my way to the training field. "Will!" I yelled out her name as soon as I got there. A few people were sparrin
I watched Rome angrily as he passed through the field not once glancing in my direction. I hissed angrily."Trouble in paradise?" Will asked."What do you mean?" I feigned ignorance.She nodded towards Rome who was a distance away from the field now standing with some of the other guards with his back to me but he definitely knew I was there. "He didn't even come over here" I shrugged."I don't care" but it was a big fat lie because I cared and maybe a little too much. I was very angry. He had the guts to be angry when I should be the one curious at him for treating me like a child and waking out on me. Fucking unbelievable. He must think I still went out with Xerxes and I had no plans to correct that assumption. Yes. I didn't go out with Xerxes yesterday because I didn't want to go anymore. I spent my time reading books in the library. Rome didn't come to bed last night and he hadn't said a single word to me. Did he want to give me the silent treatment? We'll see who is best at doi
Alpha Rome's POV I was so upset, mad even. Frost went out with Xerxes against my wishes. Even though she wasn't a child, she had to listen to me, I know better. I knew Xerxes better. He already made it clear that he wanted her. I wasn't about to smile and let her go on a date with him. My wolf was fully in support. But that didn't mean he didn't miss her or I didn't. I wanted to see her, to bury my face in her neck, and inhale her amazing scent. But I was upset because she didn't want to realize she had made a mistake and admit to it. I was swamped with work last night and I was unable to sleep. And even now, there was still a lot I needed to do. The issue of the rogues lay at the forefront of my mind. There had been no news from my spy for a long time and the new arising issue didn't help. Everybody was a suspect in my book at this point. I wanted to get to the bottom of this whole shit and deal with it like I'm supposed to. I pushed my office door open only to come face to face wi
He moved from my lips to kiss my neck and I threw my head back, moaning. He moved one of his knees in between my legs. Without any hesitation, I started moving, grinding along his warm thigh. I felt so wet, I had to be practically dripping.Then his mouth found my earlobe, nibbling, drawing on them with his lips, lightly biting, pushing away all other thoughts."Frost," he breathed in my ear, a quiet whisper that somehow felt loud and hot to me.He ran his finger along my collarbone one more time and then slid his entire warm hand to my chest, cupping my right breast completely. My nipples were already hard and raging to be squeezed. He realized this immediately and between his forefinger and thumb, he pinched my right nipple causing me to let out a long deep gasp of air. With his other hand, he lightly traced a trail of electricity along my bare toned stomach before sliding that same hand down between my dripping thighs.I let out a groan, and a shiver rattled through my entire body.
Kisses woke me up. My body instantly recognized the touch and even though I felt exhausted, I still wanted more. "Morning love" he whispered in my ear, nipping at my ear lobe gently. His touch sent shivers down my spine. I rolled so I could face him. He pulled away and I instantly missed his touch. "We need to talk" his voice was serious and my eyes snapped open. "About? What did we need to talk about so early in the morning?" "What happened the other day with Xerxes" I frowned at him. "What for" he watched behind his ear nervously. "I wanted to apologize. You're right. You're not a child and I shouldn't try to force my decisions ok you" I nodded and he continued. "But it's just that I didn't allow you to hang out with Xerxes " "You're running the apology and still trying to tell me what to do" He sighed deeply. "I'm sorry. You know Xerxes and I don't trust him" "I'm not asking you to trust him. I'm telling you to trust me. Xerxes is my friend and that's all. You're the
Lucille? Asin his dead mate Lucile? How was that possible? What the fuck is going on here. The petite woman crossed the room and wrapped her arms around Rome. I felt a pang in my heart as I watched them and it only worsened when he returned the hug. I looked away not wanting to torture myself with the sight. My eyes met Xander's and he looks confused. "What happened? I saw your body. I mourned you Lucille" Rome's voice was full of emotions. "I know..,. I'm sorry. I'm really sorry" the woman cried, burying her face Into his chest. "They had me... I had no" "Shhhh" Rome cut her off. "Don't say anything. You need to rest. You can always tell me what happened later" "Okay" He led her out of the room and I moved from the way, watching as he took her away. "Frost...." Xander called, shifting my attention to him. "I thought she was dead?" I blurted. It was honestly the only thing on my mind. How did she suddenly come back to life? "We thought so too. I was surprised to see her
Rome asked her a few more questions and he responded. It sounded like lies but it seemed like I was the only one who saw it. Or maybe it was my jealousy. "I'm tired and I'll like some rest," Lucille said after a long talk. "Should I come with you?" Rome offered. She looked at me and shook her head with a smile. "No. I'll be fine by myself." I looked away from her instantly annoyed by what she was trying to do. Rub it in my face that wanted to go away with her. "I'll be leaving now," she said and I heard the sound of the door closing. "I'll also leave Alpha," Xander said and I watched him leave. Rome sighed deeply. "What's wrong?" He asked me. I shrugged and moved from my position. "Nothing. I'll be going now" I moved towards the door but he stopped me. "Tell me, love, what's wrong?" I tried to pull my hand from his grip but he didn't let go. "I already said nothing is wrong" my voice was full of irritation and he must have surely noticed it. "Why won't you meet my eyes
Rome pulled me in for a deep kiss again, I tangled my fingers in his hair, tugging harshly and I was rewarded with a deep growl. He ran his hands down my sides, gripping my ass tightly at the same time he nipped at my lips. I heard shuffling outside and remembered that there were people outside. "Let's go to the room," I said to him. He cocked his head to the side. "Why?" "There are people outside," I said in a whisper. He leaned in, nipping my ear lobe with his teeth, sending a jolt of pleasure through me. "I don't mind it if they hear" his tone was a seductive whisper and I loved it. But I wasn't having sex in his office with others outside. I will never live down the embarrassment. He lifted me in his arms, my legs locking around his waist as he carried me out of the office and to our room. The second the door shut behind us, he began to take off my clothes, leaving me in my birthday suit. I reached for his clothes to take them off but he grabbed my wrists in his hand. "N
