“What the fuck are you doing?!” Hunter gasped, while all Corinne cared to do was look in the direction of where Aiden was now spinning Penelope in the air full of joy, relieved to realize that she hadn't gotten in their way, even though she was still biting her own hand “Stop biting yourself!” he continued demanding, approaching her as if willing to push her hand away, but Corinne soon stopped him, sitting down in the garden dirt while ripping her fangs out of her flesh “What the fuck were you thinking?!” Hunter gasped, in a mix of terror and outrage, as if that were the worst scene he could have seen that day.
“Haven't you ever had to bite something to stop yourself from screaming in pain or something, so you wouldn't be discovered on a battlefield after being wounded? Sometimes the only thing you have around is your own arm..." Corinne explained, thinking it was obvious, but the incredulous expression o
“You dirty wolf, stop putting your paws on me while other people are around!” Penelope complained under her breath, but everyone at the breakfast table could hear her, even Corinne, who was sitting at the exact other end of that restless couple, couldn't help but smile as she watched Penelope elbow her mate in a way little discreetly, making him take his hands off her under the table.“Do you two want to get a fucking room?” Felix Calibur grumbled, in a tone that couldn't be described as anything more than bitter "I'm almost making myself throw up my toast."Sitting next to Corinne, Octavia mumbled something unintelligible, but seemed to be agreeing with Felix's complaint.“Stop being a grumpy old man for a second and leave the lovey-dovey alone, Felix.” Isabelle demanded, althoug
Ever since Hunter was a boy, his father’s young brother had always given him more headaches than help, with his mania for not knowing how to control his mouth. Hunter couldn't even say the duel with that old tigress was the worst mess his uncle had ever been in, but it was certainly the one that had irritated Hunter the most, even after so many years. He didn't really know where that intense yearning came from, but Hunter wished Corinne had come to his office that night and visited him of her own free will, just so they could talk or something, just like she always seemed so comfortable and willing to talk to the swan girl, Isabelle and now even Aiden…But not. Now he had to watch her nervously pace back and forth in his office, just because Felix didn't know how to respect a tiger if his life depended on it.
Corinne realized that a duel, perhaps more than a way of defending the wolf's honor, was also a form of entertainment for the pack, as all the wolves around, especially the younger ones, seemed extremely excited to watch the fight that had been promised to them that morning. They all looked so happy they didn't even seem to notice when Corinne bumped into them in the crowd that was beginning to form outside the Calibur house, as she followed Octavia to the courtyard.“Octa! You can’t ignore me forever!” Corinne grunted, apologizing under her breath to every wolf her shoulder accidentally hit because of Octavia's ability to be as slippery as an eel “We need to talk!” she demanded, needing to almost throw herself forward to finally be able to grab Octavia's wrist and make her stop “Please, stop with that! I don't know what made you think I cared who your mate is, but&helli
"Penelope! I can not breathe!" Corinne panted desperately, but that didn't stop the corset at her waist from becoming even tighter.“Stop being dramatic.” the swan princess snorted, continuing to strangle her waist with a strength that Corinne would never have imagined a little bird shifter would possess “My father himself told me in his last letter that the last time the Alphas gathered to honor a wife was over a century ago, when my grandmother was still a child. So, if you want to look perfect for an event like this, then shut up and let me adjust that dress until it really fits you perfectly.” her hands finally stopped pulling on the corset, but Corinne didn't have time to feel relieved, because the knot she tied in the strings didn't let her lungs go back to the right place “That old seamstress's designs are pretty decent, but if you don't have the appropriate preparation
As the son of one of the most influential Lunas to ever exist in the Calibur pack, Hunter was used to attending parties and welcoming different Alphas in the most cordial way possible, even when he wasn't in the mood for it. However, that day, everything seemed very different, as the other Alphas disembarked to enjoy the ball in Corinne's honor. Hunter had never been so in the background as the Alpha of this pack, but he had never felt so proud, either. Hell, Hunter wished he could say he'd be feeling the same way if it were Isabelle, Aiden, or even Felix who were being honored as a hero that night, but…It was special. Because it was Corinne.For probably the hundredth time that night, Hunter broke protocol and slipped into the house, placing himself next to the stairs where Belle had promised that she and Penelope would come down with Corinne when she was ready, which, in his opinion, was t
“Hunter!” Corinne and Jennifer gasped at the same time, but it was his wife who reached him first, hurrying to remove some of the banana peels, food scraps and crumpled packaging that were on his head and shoulders “Are you okay? Oh, shit, you’re bleeding!” she lamented with an expression of pure concern, but Hunter didn't even need to run his hand across his forehead to know that it was just a superficial cut that would be healed in a matter of seconds.“I’m fine. But there is someone who will not be fine after this.” he growled, raising his head again towards where Jennifer was, having gone down some steps and now stood on wobbly legs looking at him, terrified.“I… I didn’t want to do that, Hunter!” she whimpered, shakily “I… Uh… Felix told me to throw out the trash b
“Uh… Are you sure it wouldn’t be better if Aiden helped you with this?” Corinne asked nervously, swallowing hard as she watched Hunter undo the buttons on the filthy shirt he was wearing, revealing his chest covered in muscles, scars, and tattoos, before throwing the clothes into the hamper that was next to her.“He's making sure Jennifer doesn't go near the party and try anything else.” he explained, shaking his head with a mix of disappointment and irritation “Besides, the wolves responsible for cleaning will already be unhappy about losing part of the party to clean up that mess near the stairs. I don’t want to make them more dissatisfied by having to clean my room, too.” Corinne's face burned as he began to unbuckle his belt and she was deeply grateful when he finally entered the bathroom of his room, as she would hardly be able to take her eyes of
“And these are frankincense and rosemary incense. My favorites." Vera Carter, the Elephant Alpha's mate, happily placed into Corinne's hands what was probably her tenth gift in less than five minutes “They make the house smell delicious and are very useful in helping us relax after a tiring day taking care of the pack.”“I greatly appreciate your consideration, Alpha Carter. And, please, don’t forget to take some bars of the chocolate with hazelnuts that your daughter seems to like so much.” Corinne smiled at the little girl leaning over the nearby dessert table, as well as several other children of all kinds “My husband said that the hazelnut seeds he bought last year from squirrels have adapted very well to our soil, so if you also want to take some, it will be a pleasure to be able to return your gifts.”&ldquo
"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.

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
