Alpha XavierWhen I mentioned Alpha Gabriel, Sylvia's face drained of color, and she swallowed hard. Her eyes widened in fear.So I immediately knew something was wrong. She did not want to see that.It seemed like she was faking sickness to avoid appearing before him to serve him that day. I had to do something to help her, so I used my magic to alter her facial feature right before the trial. When he did not recognize her, it appeared that she had not checked herself in a mirror beforehand. No wonder she was surprised herself when he didn't recognize her!She expressed her gratitude toward me when I explained all this to her, but I felt like she was still hiding something from me.So this evening, I am out on a hunt, but my mind keeps wandering back to that day.'Do you think she's lying, Xavier? I can't tell if her story is real or not," my wolf Xander asks me."I don't know what to believe," I sigh. She claimed she used to be the maid of Gabriel's fiancée, but there is something a
And here I was, sprinting down the corridor like a crazed barefoot maniac. Not the first time I've fled from Alpha Xavier, but definitely the first time it's been out of sheer embarrassment.I can't believe I kissed him!Well, it wasn't our first kiss but still, what on Earth possessed me?!'Don't be so hard on yourself, Victoria. That was a pretty good way to distract him,' Liliana says.Oh, for fuck's sake. Is she awake again?"Liliana, how is it that you keep on breaking through the effects of the potion I'm giving you to make you stay asleep?" I say irritably.'C'mon, Victoria. I know you can't keep me hidden forever. Just let me out,' Liliana pleads."I can't do that; Alpha Gabriel will know it was me," I reply.'He's gone for now. You have to trust me,' Liliana insists."Maybe he is, but I know he'll return soon," I counter. I need to get back to my room and drink some potion immediately.But luck is not on my side today."Sylvia," I hear Alpha Xavier's gravelly voice behind me.
Alpha Xavier"Mate," I mumble.Nathan looks at me, eyes widening in confusion, his arms stretched out on either side of him, fingers pointing to the ground. "What are you mumbling about?""Sylvia is my mate," I declare."Who is Sylvia?" he asks."Sylvia," I say harshly. "My maid. Sylvia."Nathan's eyes almost pop out of his head. "Your personal maid, Sylvia?""Yes, that's what I said, didn't I? Why do you look so shocked? You don't think she is good enough? I bark."Goddess, of course, she is good enough. She is quite the beauty. But why do you think she is your mate? When did you figure it out?" Nathan asks curiously."Yesterday. She was running away from me like she usually does, but I caught her. And when I did, I felt the mate bond," I explain to Nathan."Oh? What did it feel like?" Nathan had yet to find his mate, so he was always curious about what it would be like. And so was I.And now I have found her."When I touched her, a surge of emotion overcame me, and I felt our mate b
Oh dear lord!I can hardly believe what I just witnessed!Alpha Xavier had his hands all over himself and he was...he was pleasuring himself. How am I supposed to forget that?!But then again, I'm not sure if I want to erase that image from my head...The Alpha's eyes were half-closed, his breathing heavy and slow as his fingers moved up and down his length. His muscles tensed and rippled with each stroke of his hand.His abs tightened and rippled with each moan that escaped his lips as he explored his own body. I could almost feel the heat radiating from him as he touched himself, a hunger that seemed to consume him entirely.I also felt the heat between my legs.I watched in awe as his fingers moved faster and faster up and down his shaft. He was so beautiful.He was completely unaware I was watching him. His eyes were closed, and his expression was one of pure pleasure.I wanted to leave, but at the same time, I didn't. I was too entranced by the scene.And then, he said my name. W
My heart racing, I tear out of Alpha Xavier's room. Passionate kisses and heated touches still linger in my mind, making me feel both euphoric and terrified at the same time. The truth of what I've done hits me in full force, and I'm flooded with guilt and shame. And what was that whisper I heard?'Oh, Victoria. You are so stupid,' Liliana taunts me from within. My wolf's voice again brought me back to reality. "What are you talking about, Liliana? You know it's wrong for me to get physical with him," I hiss through gritted teeth.'No, V. It's not wrong. It is fated,' Liliana declares in her cold, commanding tone."What do you mean?" I say, my thoughts spinning wildly.'You really have no idea, do you? Alpha Xavier is your fated mate!'I freeze in my tracks as shockwaves course through me. "That...that's not funny, Liliana," I choke out in a whisper.'I am not trying to be funny. Moon goddess has chosen Alpha Xavier to be your fated mate. So you either accept your mate bond with hi
Alpha XavierThere she goes, my mate, running away from me again.I release a long sigh as I watch her fly away. What am I going to do with her?'Next time, push her against the mattress and ravage her,' my wolf howls inside me."Xander!" I growl at him. "I will not force myself on my mate!"'Ah, you are too noble for your own good, Xavier. I felt her wolf, and let me tell you, she was eager,' Xander says.The truth is that he is right. She smells of beauty and innocence and everything that I wanted to claim as mine. Only, I had promised myself that when she came into heat, we would make love together – not have me take her like some animal in a rut."Yeah well, I would rather wait until Sylvia is ready," I murmur under my breath. It helped the words escape my lips before Xander could say something lewd again.'Boring,' he says, then goes silent. I can feel the conflict within me, torn between my primal instincts and my desire to respect Sylvia. The urge to chase after her is strong,
I did it.I rejected Alpha Xavier.I didn't have the guts to stay and watch his reaction, so I ran away right away. Hopefully, he is not too angry at me. If anything, he should be relieved as he didn't have to reject me first. Who would want to have a servant as his mate anyway, right?'I cannot believe you rejected him and left him like that. What is the matter with you, girl!' my wolf scolds me."It's for the best," I reply.I couldn't go into my room because I knew Alpha Xavier would follow me there. So I ran to the forest instead.A wild panic surges through me as I enter the forest. With every step I take, my heart thumps faster and faster until I'm sure it will burst out of my chest. The steady rustle of leaves in the trees fails to soothe me. They say finding one's fated mate is a rare gift, yet here I am, running away from mine.Trembling with fear, I wander deeper into the woods until I can run no more. Falling against a big oak tree, I gasp for breath when I hear a deep voic
I've been thinking about Alpha Xavier all day. I can't stop. It's as if he put a spell on me, and I can hardly focus at work because of it.And his touch... Oh, his touch is like an electric current coursing through my veins. It's as if his hands have their own magic, igniting a fire within me that I never knew existed. The way his fingers graze my skin sends shivers down my spine, leaving a trail of warmth in their wake.I find myself daydreaming about the moments we've shared, replaying them in my mind like a movie.What the hell is wrong with me!?It must be because he is my mate.'Or, it's because you fell in love with him,' Liliana chirps in my consciousness."No, Lili, I don't think it's love," I nervously stammer."Then what is it?' my wolf inquires."I don't know... maybe it's because of the mate bond that the moon goddess has put on us," I suggest, "It's so strong and there's nothing I can do to control my feelings." I pause, trying to make sense of everything.'Or, maybe thi
