“Well, since you want to get something to do so bad, then give me a second.” he asked, turning towards the door “I'm going to go to my office and get some papers I've been working on and I'll bring them to you…”
“I'm serious, Calibur…”
"And me too." Hunter turned back in her direction and, to Corinne's shock, she didn't find any sign of sarcasm in his face “There are some administrative issues that I need help resolving and you clearly have the knowledge and ability to do so. So, since you want to keep your head and hands busy, I thought it would be a good idea to do this together. That way you’re satisfied and I make sure you’re not hanging from trees or making trouble out there.” he smiled, making Corinne's cheeks burn.
“Will you let m
“Oh, dear… That really left a huge scar…” Cindy sighed, regretfully, while Corinne stood with her shirt raised in front of the mirror, observing the still reddened skin on her hips, but now at least completely regenerated. “It’s just one more. At least I can’t see my bones anymore when I look at this and I finally got rid of that damn bandage.” she smiled, finishing getting dressed. “Maybe this way your Alpha will finally lessen what he calls security around me. At least before, I didn't need to have a doctor around all the time and have someone tell me I need to go back to bed every time I take a step.” “Our Alpha really cares about you.” Cindy sighed with joy, as if that was something touching “Of course you couldn't see it, because you were unconscious at that moment, but he didn't leave your side after he brought you back from the forest. At every moment,
“We… We have to find the best dress for you!” Cindy said, as if she was about to cry, which only confused Corinne even more. “It’s serious, I’ll be fine with anything…” she tried to insist, but Cindy pushed her until she sat on the couch and Isabelle could place one of Lilac’s notebooks in her hands. “You deserve pretty dresses, Corinne, even if you might not have anywhere to wear them.” Hunter’s cousin smiled “So, please choose.” “Uh…” Hesitantly, Corinne glanced at the various glamorous designs between the pages, all featuring models much thinner and more elegant than her “I don’t really understand about this, so… Maybe it would be better to let the seamstress choose and… Oh…” she stopped in front of one of the models, stunned. “Did you like this one?” Isabelle sat
“And then there’s the Chipmunk Alpha, Berthie. She's adorable in her human and beast form, but trust me, you don't want to say that out loud around her. She will spend decades throwing hazelnuts at you to get revenge.” Isabelle joked, making Corinne laugh nearby and, of course, even though Hunter was just a meter away from the two, neither of them seemed to notice his presence there.“Thanks for the advice. I think I would end up making that mistake one time or another.” Corinne continued with a huge smile as she looked at the list of Alphas that would be visiting them that day “Oh, the Swan Alpha will be coming? I remember hearing about him. I guess that’s why you asked Lilac to do this fancy makeup on me?” She blinked crookedly, as if she was still trying to get used to all the black products lining her eyes and making them even more crystal clear and inten
“Did I by any chance ask for all this advice?” he snorted. “And what do you mean by courtship? She’s my temporary wife… And just that.” Hunter growled, not just at Isabelle, but also himself.“Is it because she is not your fated mate?” his cousin asked, fearfully, “Well, it would actually be very unfair to Corinne if you approached her knowing that someone else could show up at any moment, but… You know, some wolves never find the soul mates made by the Moon God for them, but this doesn't stop them from truly falling in love. And, for some, the bond is not a synonym for eternal happiness and fidelity…”“My father was proof of that…” Hunter grunted under his breath, but of course Belle heard him “I know all this, Isabelle, but it's not something you or I have to w
Never in his life would Hunter imagine that a simple outfit would make him so upset. However, as he watched Corinne standing next to him, in a cream-colored dress much simpler than the one that had been ruined while still on the mannequin, that was exactly how he felt. By the time Lilac had reached the room and nearly had a heart attack seeing what had been done with one of her finest creations, in her own words, everyone had to accept that Corinne was right about the dress being a lost cause. Lilac was working on one of the dresses she had custom made for her, but although it was pretty and shiny, it was no more than a lining compared to the other. Still, Corinne didn't hesitate to put it on, along with that necklace she had worn at they wedding, to prevent them from being late to welcome their guests. “It's good to finally meet you, Princess Valiant… I mean, Luna Calibur…” Berthie Maddox, the Alpha of t
“Is this hibiscus tea? But what a decadent drink to serve to such important guests…” Penelope complained as she took a sip from her china cup with a grimace, but Corinne wasn’t surprised by that, of course.Not when all that swan did was complain all the time.“I ensure that all teas planted on your land are of the best quality possible, Princess Bright.” Isabelle said, with a forced smile, standing next to the large table where they all were, next to the window overlooking the garden, with the teapot in her hands.“Well, I’m not surprised that you’re the one who has to assure me of this, since your Alpha’s wife clearly doesn’t know anything about this territory yet.” the girl attacked, looking at Corinne, while taking another sip of her tea.
“Corinne? Where are you going?" Isabelle asked, worried “You are the hostess of the party. You can’t go out like that.”“I… I need to go outside, Belle. I think I smell an intruder.” Corinne said that last sentence without sound, moving only her lips, so that the other wives couldn't hear.“What?” Isabelle blinked, but unlike what Corinne expected, she didn't look alarmed, but rather confused and almost incredulous, as she murmured back “But… That would be impossible. Hunter raised all the security levels after what happened in the hunting competition. For an invader to be so close to us, they would need to have crossed the forest, and with so many lookouts scattered around, it would be impossible for this to have happened without one of our wolves giving a signal. Are you sure you didn’t
“The vegetable harvest was smaller than we expected this year, so we will sell less this month to ensure the my pack barns are full in winter.” Berthie raised the new topic of the meeting “However, we hope that this situation will improve in the next quarter. I hope you understand that we will have to divide the remaining stocks for sale equally between you this time.”“The harvest from my pack was plentiful this year.” Rudolph nodded humbly “I can give up my share so there will be more for those who weren’t as lucky.”"I say the same. My pack is not having difficulties with food. Let the rest be divided equally among the rest.” Hunter said, trying to hide how much this boring and repetitive meeting was exasperating him.Generally, it was never like this. N
"Alice! Alice!”That voice sounded at the same moment Alice opened the coffee shop's door, making the small bell overhead tinkling. Her eyes were heavy and her shoulders were so low that they seemed to be almost touching the floor, but she still forced herself to smile at her best friend, just as Lucy got up from the small table where she was sitting and came running over to her."Oh, dear, I'm so sorry..." Lucy whined, and, as always, Alice could see in her poor friend's blue eyes that she had been crying "Are you okay?""Yes, I'm fine." Alice tried hard to keep that smile on her lips “It was painful to see Mrs. Williams in that coffin, but, she was suffering so much the last few days...” she sighed, as her friend held her shoulders and guided her to the table where Lucy had left “The only thing that consoles me is that she was always saying she wanted to rest. She looked so peaceful at the funeral... I think she was finally able to make it.”“That bastard son of hers really refused
Well, everyone, with that, we concluded the story of Hunter and Corinne. I would like to say a big thank you to everyone who got here and supported this story in every way, from comments, to gems and reviews! This was my favorite story to write for GoodNovel so far and I wanted you all to know that having you with me was what made it happen. Thank you very much, I hope to see you all in my next stories!
Sunny Calibur was exactly like the sorceress who had plagued all the packs in the region years ago. That's because, as much as her parents hated it when someone used that name, that woman, who had been dead for many years, was her grandmother. Maybe she shouldn't think that way, but for Sunny, it was just the truth and she was fine with it, just as she had gotten used to the looks the tigers from her mother's homeland gave her, whenever her mother's family paid a visit.“Here they are!” her mother, Luna Corinne, cheered happily as the Valiant carriage pulled up, and Sunny just shook her hands with a smile on her face.“I told you they were just a little late because of the mud last night's storm caused.” She assured, tucking a strand behind her mother's ear, before she and her parents approached to greet her grandparents and her uncle.“Oh, my dear.” Her grandma was the first to get out of the carriage, with a huge smile on her face as she hugged her “I swear you look taller and more
"This is ridiculous! Get out of my way, Isabelle! I have the right to enter this room!” Hunter grunted, on the verge of despair, but Isabelle resorted to moving out of the door to his and Corinne's room.“Not while you’re acting like you’re the one giving birth.” His cousin snorted, placing one hand on his hip while holding his baby son, Nicholas, with the other, even though he was already much bigger than any other 1-year-old boy in the entire pack “Now, sit down, take a deep breath and try to calm down. I’m not going to let you go in there in that nervous state, just to make Corinne scared like you.”“How can I not be nervous? She was in a lot of pain! What if there is something wrong with the baby? And if the birth ends up being more than her body can handle!” he panted at that mere thought “Enough! Get out of that door before I get you out, Isabelle! I need to check on my wife!’“For the love of all the Gods, Hunter, I’m sure….”The sound of thin, high-pitched crying interrupted t
“Hunter, can you stop pacing like a goose?” William grunted next to him at the altar, but Hunter solemnly ignored him, continuing to do it again and again all the way in front of the Moon God's stained glass window.That little exercise was the only thing that was managing to keep him and his wolf under control while Corinne didn't show up to marry him. Not that he didn't know he was acting crazy, since she had already accepted his marriage proposal and probably wouldn't run away from him, but... Hell, all he wanted most was for that day to be everything their first marriage had not been.It was almost crazy to think that just a year ago, he was in that exact suit, standing in that same spot, but with a completely different feeling in his chest as he waited for his bride. When he thought about what Corinne's life was like at the time she first set foot in Calibur, only to find her mate and be rejected by him right away...Fuck, there was that feeling again that he could spend the rest
“Jennifer?” Corinne asked, surprised to find Hunter's sister standing there, with what appeared to be a suitcase in her hands in a backpack on her back.“Ah, you...” Jennifer stammered, immediately turning pale “Listen, I didn't come here to try to ruin your wedding or anything like that, okay? So don't blow my head off with your magical powers or anything like that! I'm already leaving anyway! It's not like I can bother you anymore. I just... I just wanted to see this house one last time, before I leave.”“I would never do something like that, Jennifer…” Corinne sighed, until she realized what she had said “Wait, are you leaving? Where?"“And does it matter?” the young wolf growled, cowering “Nobody wants me in this place anymore. I don'
“Bring some more staples over here! We can’t risk this hairstyle falling apart!” Penelope screamed, and Corinne had to fight the instinct to flinch, as she knew that any movement could destroy that intricate hairstyle and consequently make Penelope want to end her life “Quick! One moment longer and we’ll be late!”“Why are you so worried and ordering everyone around?” Nicole grunted, but still passed the hairpins to the swan princess, allowing her to continue making waves and pinning up various parts of Corinne's hair, even though theoretically everything was already done “My sister needs time to enjoy her marriage, you know?”“Take a step back, brat. You’re not even old enough to have a mate and know what it means to have a perfect marriage.” Penelope snorted “At least I'm here
“Hunter!” Corinne gasped when Hunter tried to insert his hands down her pants, but that didn't stop him from continuing “We... We've already been away for five days... We can't take any longer. People must be waiting for us...” her words warned, but his mate just parted her legs on the carriage seat, allowing his hand to enter her leggings and find that narrow and wet pussy, ready for him.“It felt good fucking you while you bit the pillow to keep from screaming and letting your family know what we were doing, but I'm done with it.” He growled, licking her claim mark as he pulled the strap of her blouse to caress her tits “I want to go hard into that hot pussy and hear you moan like you always have.”“Hunter...” she moaned again, as he began to plunge his fingers started deep in and out of her, using h
“Are you sure you’re not cold?” Hunter murmured against her ear, only causing Corinne to curl up even closer to him, pressing her cheek against his warm chest. "No." she sighed as she ran her hands over his abdomen “What about you? I never realized that Valiant could be so much colder this time of year than Calibur.” "No. I have something pretty hot to help me.” He teased, making her giggle as he trailed kisses down her face. “So... What did you think?” Corinne asked, dangling her legs in the air from the edge of the hill where they were sitting, with a rather expansive view of the entire tiger territory below “Is this place much different than you imagined?” “Well…” Hunter looked down at the orange-leafed trees below, and the many tigers moving through the center of the pack, resuming their lives in full force now that they were safe “It’s certainly not the den of cruelty and arrogance that horror stories told me about when I was a kid.” He s
