Alpha Rome's pov I was upset with Frost. Upset with myself and upset with everything around me. I wanted to smash something, break anything just to let out my anger. 'It's all your fault she's mad at us in the first place' my wolf accused. "Yes. It was all my fault. I didn't want her to get upset in the first place, that was why I lied but I realized that it was a big mistake, and it only made things worse. "Alpha" Xander called me from my thoughts and I glared at him. "Have you spoken to her?" "She wouldn't speak to me" "We shouldn't have lied" "Don't you think I know that now?" If I had known that it would be like this, I would have just told her that I was taking Lucille for a run. "She's upset with me too," he said with concern and I eyed him. "Why do you care?" "She is my friend" "So?" "I'm going to do everything to make her forgive me" "You have no right to. As long as shrub not talking to me, you shouldn't be talking to her " He looked at me like I developed tw
"Are you going to stay in here all day?" She grumbled. We had been sitting inside all day. I didn't mind it one bit but Will was restless. I could tell because she refused to stay at a place. Constantly standing up to pace the room then returning to my side. "I have no reason to be outside" "Let's train" she suggested. "It's the middle of the day. A bit weird to train by this time isn't it?" The hotness of the sun, having others around, I'll pass. "No. It's the best actually" I gave her a look and she rolled her eyes. "I know morning is the best. But it isn't so bad to train at this time. Besides, we can't sit here all day." "I don't know about you but I can" "Come on. Let's go outside please" she nudged me. "I have no energy, Will" I wasn't going anywhere. I just wanted to be inside and rest. "I can bet you're scared I'll win you. After all, it's been a long time since you trained" I snorted at her. "I know what you're doing Will" and it wasn't going to work. She won't ga
He kissed me deeply, pulling my knees apart, and causing my dress to hike up. He continued kissing me, trailing his fingers down my side. I was overwhelmed with lust and I wanted him more than anything. "Rome" I protested when he pulled away from the kiss and the bed but he smirked at me. I watched as he pulled off his shirt, tossing it carelessly to the floor while staring at me deeply. He crawled onto the bed towards me slowly, watching me with so much lust, a silent promise of what he planned to do to me and I couldn't wait for it. I couldn't wait for him to ravish me completely. All the anger I felt previously had vanished into thin air and the only thing I could think of was the feel of his body against mine. He hovered over me and grasped my dress, ripping it like it was an annoying obstacle. I should have been bothered that he ruined my dress but instead, warmth pooled in my belly and I felt a gush of wetness, flow between my legs. He made me feel so desirable. He tossed the
It was late evening when Rome finally let me go. I was exhausted from all the lovemaking in the afternoon. I tried to move away but he pulled me close, keeping me beside him and he kissed me slowly, ravaging my mouth. I could feel his length hardening against me when I pulled away. "No more" He chuckled. "I know that but he has a mind of his own" I chuckled and relaxed in his arms, listening to his steady heartbeat. "I'm really sorry for lying to you and hurting you" he apologized again. "I'm sorry. Just don't do it again" "Never" he kissed my hair. "Let me make it up to you" "You don't have to do anything" "No, I really want to. The last few days have been rough and stressful for us. I want us to do something together. Something private" "Like another dinner?" I asked. "You want that?" "We didn't get to complete the last one and I was enjoying it so much" "Okay. Let's do that. How about tonight?" "It's sudden. Don't you have tbh go you want to take care of today?" "No
I was fucking furious with Rome. How could he? He promise me and he didn't show up. And that fucking Lucille, I wish she would just disappear from my life forever, I wiped my tears angrily. Rome defended her. I had no location in sight but I just wanted to get away from all of them. I moved further away from the pack house, trying to reign in my anger. Damn him. Damn them all. I wiped the angry tears. Why did it feel like he was going to leave me for Lucille? It was already starting to happen. Taking her side and protecting her at my expense. He stayed behind to comfort her, not caring that I was upset with him after he ditched me. Ditched our dinner that he planned and promised not to miss. To think he was furious when I doubted him. I had a feeling something like this was going to happen. My instinct never lies. I noticed now that I'd ventured into the bushes I was still on the pack land but I was now far away from the house. In my anger, I didn't notice how far I'd walked. The ha
There was a pounding in my head. I opened my eyes slowly trying to get familiar with where I was and what happened. My hands were both behind my back and my legs were chained. I lay on the floor helplessly. "Who is there? Help" I called out. I stepped out of my room and I was attacked. Was it a rogue? How did they get into the building? Did Rome know I was missing? "Help!" I screamed, hoping that someone would hear my cries and come to my rescue. But no one came. My voice echoed and it seemed like I was just the only one around for miles. I struggled to roll onto my back and get a better view of the environment. I was in a clearing. Tall trees surrounded the area. It didn't look familiar in the slightest. The pain in my hand became too much and I moved to my side again. I tried to work the ropes but they wouldn't come loose. After struggling for a while with no fruitful effort, I decided to relax and reserve my energy for later. My eyes dropped and I fell asleep soon enough. And
I eyed Xerxes from my position. He was stiff as he moved about and he had a permanent scowl on his face. I couldn't believe him. He didn't like Rome but this was more than that, he betrayed his pack by kidnapping their Luna. And for what reason? He and Lucille were close. Have they always planned this? Did he help her face her death and start to accuse the Alpha of abuse?I scoffed. Probably for the thousandth time in the last hour. Xerxes was a stranger. I thought I knew him but apparently, I was so wrong. I don't know Xerxes at all."You're going to burn a hole into his head with the way you keep staring" Lucille commented from her position and Xerxes turned to look at me. I met his gaze head-on, and he looked away but for a second, I thought I saw guilt in his eyes."We'll spend another night here since there was no information from the messenger" Lucille announced.We've been here for four days. I could tell from the nights that passed. I was tired of this shit. Tired of being aro
Alpha Rome's POVWill refused to speak. She was bound hands and legs and her real identity has been exposed and yet she refused to tell me what I needed to know. I had done no damage yet because it would make my mate upset with me. Damn her. She refused to see that Will wasn't genuine as she had thought even though there was enough evidence against her. Maybe I shouldn't have let my emotions affect my decision to do the right thing but her opinion mattered to me. She had taken her stand against my decision and felt the need to make things clear to me before I do anything.I took the stairs at a time, eager to get back to my mate. The room door was open and I frowned. It was unlike her to leave it open. I entered the room."Frost" I called but there was no response. I couldn't feel her presence in here either.I reached for her through the bond but something was blocking me out. She probably closed off the bond because she was so upset with me. But it was risky. Especially since a rogu
Third person povTwelve years later frost and Rome had lived the happiest lives they could. After the birth of their first son, she has two more children to add to him. Twin girls. Zaidee and Amala. Rome was smitten with the two girls. With his family. Years ago after he had lost his first mate, he didn't think that something like this could be possible. But here they were. Frost waved her hand in front of her mate's face and he snapped out of his thoughts."Are you listening to anything I'm saying?" She queued him.He had gotten lost while she spoke to him. Something that happened frequently these days. She had also gotten lost while staring at her mate's face. Counting the blessings of the moon goddess. "What do you suggest we do about it? He asked her and she shrugged."He is our child. He had Alpha blood and the powers from my lineage but he is too young to be that powerful. I fear""I've told you to remain calm and let's watch him for a while. Give him a couple of years"Frost s
Xander and WillWill’s PovI didn’t know how to feel about Xander but I was mostly upset with him. Yes, he had fucked up big time. But so had I. I asked for forgiveness and Frost had forgiven me. Rome had forgiven him too. He visited and asked him to return to the pack house as the beta but he refused. He would rather live like an outcast than become beta again. I didn’t like that he would want to wallow in self-pity, regretting his actions all the days of his life.‘Why are you with him?’ my wolf questioned. I liked him. I wanted something more with him. He said he wanted the same with me. But I didn’t know if I could be with him if he chose to never forgive himself for how he betrayed Alpha Rome.I continued on my way to Sileas's new residence. Since the war ended, the advisors were dissolved and their privileges are taken away. On one hand, it was best to do it this way. Loyalties were being shared when all should be loyal to the king.I had also been guilty of that. It was an acti
Life couldn't get any better for me. I had a loving mate, a wonderful new family and I was about to give birth to my child any day from now. I couldn't wait to hold the child in my arms. I often wished it'll come sinner but I can't be faster than fates. Strong arms wrapped around me and touched my rounded belly. I leaned into the touch of my mate. His warm hand touching our child through my belly caused warmth to spread through me.Rome was more eager to see the baby than I was. If he had his way, then our baby would have been here months ago. He never failed to show how much he loved and adored our child. Always kissing and touching my swollen belly."I told you to stay in bed" he whispered in my ear before biting my lobes as a punishment for defying his orders."I can't stay in bed all day""It's good for you. You should have enough rest until our pup is here""It gets so boring. If only you spent it with me"He turned me around so we were facing each other and he kissed me deeply.
The days got better but Rome's work didn't reduce in the slightest. I offered to help but he refused each time. I tried several times to bring up Xander's case but he dismissed it each time. It worried me to see the bags under his eyes."Are you listening to me at all?" I asked him with folded arms. "Yes. And I'm assuring you it's Omar. I can take care of it""You're barely getting any sleep""There's a lot to be done. I can't just leave it""I'm not asking you to leave it. I'm asking you to get help""I'm fine" he brushed me off."Whatever" I started getting annoyed with his stubbornness."Do whatever the fuck you want to do. It doesn't matter to me" I stomped off and he let me go.Since he wasn't going to be a hardhead and do all the work himself, I wasn't going to stop him or ask him not to work. He could work himself to death if he wants to.'You don't mean that' my wolf scowled. Of course, I don't. I would never wish him death but he was so frustrated, why won't he try to get he
"My mother?" Sienna was confused."You know my mother?" Her voice was full of disbelief.I didn't think this was a great time to break the news to her. I caught movement in the doorway and I saw Agnia waiting to be called."Agnia" Rome called her from the doorway and she strode inside.I looked at Sienna to take in her reaction to the news. So many emotions crossed her face at the same time. Hurt, regret, disbelief and finally settled on anger."You're my mother?" She questioned."Yes my child" Agnia reached for her but she moved away quickly."You aren't dead? Or sick or anything. You're healthy and alive""Yes," Agnia cried."You left me" sienna's tone was accusing."All my life.....you never came to find me""I wanted to. Believe me, I really wanted to but I couldn't. Thorne would have had me killed the moment I stepped foot onto his land""You never tried"Agnia hung her head in shame."You didn't even try to get me""I'm sorry" she mumbled."Why didn't you run away with me too?"
Rome and I didn't leave the bed. We made love countless times until our bodies collapsed in exhaustion the next day. I didn't think I could feel happier than this in my life. Everything I ever wanted, desired, craved. I had it all with me. The journey had not been easy in any way. It was the toughest but in the end, I was here with my mate, and a pup growing inside of me.I caressed my stomach gently, there was no bump yet but in the next couple of months, the child will arrive. I couldn't wait to hold my pup in my arms.Rough palms covered my palm on my stomach. I looked behind me and I was key with the intense eyes of my mate."My love" his voice was husky and it sent a drag wave of weakness between my legs.I loved hearing that from his mouth. He grinned and kissed me deeply, turning me over until we were facing each other."You look beautiful this morning" he complimented but I rolled my eyes. I'm certain I looked like a mess.He ran his plan lazily over my stomach."I can't wait
He grabbed my hand and pulled me out of the hall towards his office. We kept kissing, his free hand trying at every opportunity to touch any part of me. He opened his office door and dragged me in gently, slamming the door shut behind us. He pressed against me and I could feel his cock pressed up on my lower belly. I was writhing in anticipation. He kissed my neck, sucking on the skin. His hand stretched over my back in an attempt to pull down the zipper of my dress.He stopped and turned me around, easily pulling the zipper down all the way. He ran his fingers along the length of my back and a shiver traveled up my spine.I was so eager, pulling my hands out from my dress and it fell to the floor. I couldn't wait any more seconds. I turned around, facing him now. I went in for another kiss.He stopped kissing me for a moment and pulled back to look at my breasts. I heard his heavy breath before he plunged again into kissing and sucking at my skin. He continued downwards until his mou
I was nervous as hell. No matter how many times I cleaned my palms, they still managed to be sweaty. I'd mentally prepared myself for today but now it was time, it didn't seem like I could do it. Today was the merger of the three packs. I was going to also be introduced publicly as the best blood wolf. Everyone wanted to meet me. So I have heard. I've not met with the other Alphas yet. Each time Rome want me to go with him, I came up with an excuse that I didn't want to leave the house. We didn't have to argue about that. Rome had been extra loving, doting on me and making sure I had whatever I wanted it. He was taking good care of me. I spent my days eating and reading and puking. Hormones. There was movement outside the door and voices. I tended. It wasn't Rome. He said he would come and get me when it was time. Or did he send another? He would get an earful from me if he did. There was a soft rap on the doors. "Come in" I called out and the door opened slowly. Jon was standing
Rome left early. I had no idea what he wanted to take care of but it gave me a good opportunity to leave the room like I wanted. Ajax was guarding my door. "Luna" he bowed. "I'll like to see Xander" He scratched behind his ear. "I don't think that's a good idea. The Alpha...." "I'll handle him but I need to see Xander" His reluctance was clear and I couldn't blame him. "Now Ajax. You can either accompany me there or point me in the right direction" He hesitated but then he nodded. "Let's go" I walked behind him, pleased to be outside. Girls and guards bowed as I walked past. It wasn't a new thing but it felt different. Rome informed me that wounds had spread about how I defeated the rogues and everyone wanted to meet me. Including my new pack. I was nervous about it but he assured me, I had nothing to worry about and we could see them whenever I was ready. We arrived at a door. "He is inside Luna" I knocked twice on the door and I heard his voice before I pushed it open. "
