I was having a splitting headache and I had spots dancing in my vision as I regained my consciousness. People were speaking around me but I couldn't figure out what they were saying. I tried to move and then I realized that my hand was bound. I tried to move my legs too and it was still the same. I opened my eyes slowly and I looked around. I was in a basement...or cave. It had little light and I was laying on a flat surface. My throat was dry and my neck felt sore."She's awake" I heard a male voice say. He was unrecognizable and I heard other footsteps draw nearer. A stinging pain spread on my face from a harsh slap before I got to see the new addition. "I told you, you were going to pay. That it wasn't over" I recognized the voice immediately. "Palesa?""It should have been Luna Palesa to you" she roared angrily. "I have been bidding my time, waiting for the right moment until I'll be chosen as his mate. It was going well. He was going to choose me, but then you came in from now
He made quick work of removing the rest of my clothes. He kissed his way up my legs to my inner thighs until he got to my core and licked my slit, then he took my clit into his mouth. I squirmed in delight from the sensation. He lightly sucked on my clit until I felt like I was going to explode. "Oh, fuck, please! Oh, Teigen!"My orgasm broke over me like a wave, and I let out a long moan, almost a scream. My body slowly came down from its high and I pushed his shoulders, forcing him to his back and kneeling above him. "Easy," he said softly, still concerned that I was going to hurt myself.I hear his breath catch in his throat as I begin kissing lower, reaching his pants. My eyes are focused on his bulge that's there as I slowly lower the zipper. His cock sprung free and my finger runs along the length of his cock, breathing softly as I look up at him. I can see the desire and need in his eyes as I smile and move my lips to him. I make myself comfortable between his legs and I
Alpha Teigen's povI untangled myself from Arcelia. She had been sprawled all over me after the intense bout of sex. I studied her features, trailing my finger softly over her hair. She looked so beautiful. No worry lines or sad looks on her face. I'll love to see her look this way every day. I grabbed my pants and dragged them on and then I put on a new shirt and went out of my bedroom. Landon was the first person I saw on my way downstairs. "We've been waiting for you" I groaned. "Didn't you kill him already?""I thought you might want to speak to him or torture him for a bit.""I already killed Palesa and he was working for her. He's guilty of abducting his Luna and causing her harm. His sentence is death. I don't want to see him""And the girl?" she should be punished for lying with my name and putting Arcelia in danger. But she also gave us the information that made me get to her on time so she deserved a little bit of my mercy."Banishment""Really?""She's getting away with h
I woke up alone, my stomach grumbling. It wasn't completely dark outside but it was getting there. I still had a mild headache. Teigen's side was empty. Since it wasn't night, he may have gone back to his office. I slipped out of bed and grabbed the first thing I could find. My dress from when I was abducted. I quickly put it on and returned to my room. I took a quick shower and changed into neater clothes. I went to the infirmary, to see Viviana and have a meal and also get the medicine Alfio had promised. She was busy putting away some things but she dropped them as soon as I arrived and embraced me tightly. "I was so scared. Thanking the goddess you're okay. Have you had anything to eat?""Not yet. I'm so hungry""Just sit and I'll get something for you" I made myself comfortable and she left the room. She returned a few minutes later with a tray of food. I consumed everything quickly and she took the plates away despite my resistance. When she returned, I noticed her countenance
The next day, I passed him in the hallway, I kept my head down and hurried passed him and his guards. I finished my work and went to find Viviana. She was on a break from assisting Alfio and I took that as an opportunity to see her. "I'm so fucking tired. I never want to work again" I chuckled. "That bad?""There was so much work""Why not get others to help? I can also help too" At least, it'll get me out of this house and away from Alpha Teigen. Yes! His title was back. We have no relationship so I saw no reason to address him without it. "You're human Arcelia" "What does that even have to do with anything?""You're susceptible to this kind of breakout.""You said it was only affecting children""Werewolf children" I nodded. That was the difference. "Besides. The alpha wouldn't want you near there. It's a complete mess" I said nothing in regard to her statement about the alpha. He wouldn't even care that I went there. "Any luck finding the cure?""Alfio gave the first drugs to
Alpha Teigen's povMy claws dug into my skin as I tried to remain calm. Felicia had a wide smile on her face. I watched Arcelia leave the dining hall. "Go after her" my wolf screamed but I remained where I was. "That woman shouldn't speak to our mate in that way," he added. She shouldn't and I should have done something but I stayed mute because I was a fool. I pushed my chair backward, the legs making a creaking sound and then I got up and left the dining room. I heard footsteps running after me. "Teigen wait" I ignored her. I didn't want to hurt her. But she continued running after me until she jumped in front of me. "Get out of my way Felicia""No. You're upset. Why?""You don't know why?""It doesn't make sense to me. The maid was being unruly. You never cared once""But you knew she wasn't just a maid. You saw the mark on her neck""She spilled the porridge on me on purpose""Get out of my way Felicia""Don't be upset with me because of a maid""She is my fucking mate""So it
"Are you going to tell me why you were here yesterday, bawling your eyes out""It's nothing, Viviana""Are you sure?" "Landon was here after you slept off. He looked worried. Did something happen with the alpha" I scoffed. "Does it matter? He'll always be right to you""Arcelia?""Just forget about it. I was foolish. It was my mistake""Things were going so well. I just don't understand it""I don't either but it's probably for the best this way" I've learned my lesson and I won't be making the same mistake twice. When I went out finally, the stares were too much. I could imagine what was going through their heads. I arrived to grab the supplies but someone blocked my path. "What's wrong? We have strict instructions not to let you clean anymore""Why?" I was bewildered. "I don't know. Alpha's orders. You have to see him to answer any question you might have" I groaned and moved away. Was he going to take everything away from me? Everything I enjoyed? I didn't want to see him. I di
Alpha Teigen's povA week after our huge argument and I only felt worse than I did before that. It was wrong of me to bring her mother into the situation. I had not been thinking properly and she had every reason to be upset with me. I just wasn't thinking."Alpha" Landon called me and I looked up at him."What's wrong?""You've been unhappy and I know it's not my place but you're hurting yourself.""Landon. Report on official matters and leave my personal life alone""He's just being difficult Alfio said""What's the situation with the children""The rashes disappeared from two children, we have four more new cases now""I thought we were isolating the affected?""Yes. The children didn't get it from them which leads me to believe that bodily contact is not the cause of the spread. There is something else. Maybe a place only children visit. Their getting from there or eating something from there""Please look into it. I've got several disturbing calls in the last few days. Parents ar
As I finished up from teaching and the last pup was picked up, I made my way to the pack house. My baby girl was staying with her father today. Over the course of two years, many things had changed. My heart especially and that is why I'm trying to pick up my daughter without running into her father. “Arcelia?” Landon was the first person I saw as I arrived at the pack house. “I'm surprised to see you here”“I finished early so I decided to pick her up myself”“Come on in. She's with the alpha. They should be in his office.”“No,” I said quickly and he raised a brow at me. “Okay” I can bring her downstairs to you” I smiled at him. “I'll appreciate that” he chuckled and we entered inside. While I waited downstairs, he went upstairs to get Imogen for me. Yes, I named her in honor of my best friend. The thought of her demise didn't hurt me so much anymore. Like I said, my heart had changed and I let go of resentment which means I have forgiven those who had killed her. Two years is a
ALPHA TEIGEN's POV"Everything is going smoothly," Landon said as he entered my office."I know. I spoke to Viviana""How are you feeling?" I chuckled at the question. He was the first person to ask me this. Not that I was looking for sympathy or pity but it kind of felt good to know that he was concerned."I've seen better days. I'll be fine. I just want her to be okay""And Miyanda, do you honestly not want to see her anymore? She's still your sister"Of course, someday I'll look at Miyanda and I'll not feel like tearing her apart. But it wasn't today. Not anytime soon."She's sorry""Yes. Her apology can magically change the past""Don't you think it's a bit hypocritical? You want Arcelia's forgiveness but you won't forgive Miyanda""It's her fault we're in this situation. I acted out of foolishness but it was because I thought Miyanda had been murdered. She had no reason to do what she did""I get. But she's not responsible for your actions""She contributed to it. I'm not trying
Firstly, I didn't think Alpha Teigen would easily agree to me moving out of the pack house. But then I had to use the situation to my advantage. The house was ready two days after I made the request and I was already moving in. Viviana and a few guards were helping me.They were constantly communicating with the alpha but he didn't show himself which was perfect.The last of the things were set up and I thanked them for their effort."I'll go and get some groceries to make some food. Will you be okay by yourself?"I nodded. She was constantly worrying about me. That was why I didn't want to tell her anything about my suspicions. The constant vomiting, nausea, and the rest were symptoms of something I didn't want to believe was true. Not at this time. It would only make things more messy.I took a shower and changed into lighter clothes. The house was wonderful, well-furnished, and somewhat similar to my old apartment.Since I was staying here permanently, I needed to find a job. It wo
ALPHA TEIGEN's POVI drank the remaining contents of the cup and poured myself another. This wasn't the solution to the current problems but there was nothing I could do.Regret clawed at my heart. More than the anger I was feeling. She wouldn't talk to me or open her door for anyone. I could still hear sounds inside that is why I haven't broken down the door.Alfio entered my office with a grim look on his face."She opened her door" my eyes snapped up."Viviana is with her now. But I doubt she'll want to see anyone at the moment""I just want to know that she's okay""Will she truly be? I can only imagine what is going through her head right now. I knew there was something off about the whole case in the first place. It makes sense now"I should have listened to Alfio but I let my foolish anger consume me. "I'm a fucking fool""Dwelling on the past will do nothing for you now. You have to think of a way to make things better. To earn her forgiveness" "She said she'll never forgiv
I felt weak in my knees. If I was standing, I would have fallen over. "What the fuck Miyanda?" Alfio was screaming. I've never seen him upset like this. Someone else shouted something. "I'm sorry. I'm sorry" Miyanda cried. I gripped the material of my dress tightly in my fingers. It cannot be. Everything..."Do you know what you've done? For fucks sake Miyanda. I thought they murdered you. Do you know what I've done since I started receiving those parts?" Teigen yelled at his sister. "I didn't think you'll take it that far""You didn't think? You know me. You know how angry I get. You used that to your advantage. You wanted me to torture them" he continued yelling and I just sat there, my head spinning while I still tried to wrap my head around everything. She faked her death? It was laughable. I had to resist the urge to not laugh out loud at the madness. She fucking faked her death. "Why did you bother to show up" Alfio screamed. "You should have remained dead. Do you know the
I don't understand. What... how was she here? I rubbed my eyes because I started to feel I was hallucinating. Maybe one of those dreams that I usually had. It could be stress. Or maybe this person has a similar face to that woman. Was she a twin? I shook my head, getting rid of those thoughts. It couldn't be. I may have only seen her once but I remembered her face correctly. She was real..... and alive."Miyanda" someone brushed past me and I saw alpha Teigen hugging her tightly and checking her."You're alive... how?""I'm so sorry" she sobbed tearfully. I was rooted to the floor, confused as fuck, and watching her."What are you sorry about Miyanda? What happened tell me" he led her to one of the empty chairs."You're okay. Where have you been""Alpha" Aldrid bathed in."We tracked the human to the pack house"What human I wondered?"Find whoever it is and...""It was me that went past border patrol," Miyanda said and everybody faced her again."You're alive" Aldrid mumbled, experi
"I don't understand why you feel the need to work" Viviana grumbled at me. "Isn't it better than sitting idle?""I understand you don't want to be idle but scrubbing the floors?""Do you have a better job for me""Sitting around pretty all day. It's not like you get paid for this""I still want to do it. How is it going with the children?""Alfio's cure seems to be working. He's not such a pain in the ass anymore""That is good for you. Very good" she mumbled. "Alfio was proposing that the alpha allow some people to go to your world and learn from you but the alpha was against it" I snorted. It would be beneficial to the pack but he only likes to do things that he wants. He doesn't care about the opinion of others or if they get hurt or...hold up Arcelia. We're going off track. "Well did he say why he was against it""Mhmmm. It's a solid reason and before you say I always support him, I'm not doing that right now. His reason is completely logical. While the alpha may be terrible as
