Thank you for reading... I'll be updating around this time from now on. I haven't finished the other chapter so I'll post it tomorrow with another one. Thank you for voting.
Ariana I sighed contentedly, scooting closer to Lewis and laying my head on his chest. Right here.. In his arms, I felt complete. His divine scent teased my nostrils and I couldn’t help but take a big whiff. He smelled so good. My hands traced the muscles on his chest, feeling their firmness as sparks erupted between our skins. I was blessed with a god, that’s for sure. We had just finished the fifth round of making love and decided to sleep in readiness for our journey tomorrow. After much coaxing from Lewis, I finally moved on from the stunt I pulled last night. I was ashamed of myself for not having control. The darkness I felt within me when I thought about my parent’s death was scary. There seemed to be something… a small voice other than my wolf, telling me to find those men and tear their flesh apart. It frightened me and I thought I was turning evil. Jade had stopped talking to me after that outburst, saying she was upset with me for hurting our mate. She was afraid he w
Lewis. I awoke to Ariana’s sweet scent swirling around me. It was alluring and for some reason, smelt sweeter this morning. Her tantalizing scent made my mouth water.. My wolf panted loudly in my mind, sending explicit images to the forefront of my mind, making my morning wood painfully hard. Looking over at my mate sleeping peacefully next to me, I didn’t have the heart to wake her up so I settled for treating myself to an early breakfast. Feasting on her hot wet core. And it was divine. We had just driven through the large gates of the coven’s mansion and my mate seemed to be amazed by the sight. I chuckled, thinking she would get really surprised when she saw my Alpha’s mansion back at the pack. He was one of the richest men I know. A force to reckon with. Cordelia, Zoe’s mother was already waiting for us at the entrance and she welcomed us warmly. Although Ariana seemed a little nervous so I squeezed her hand, reassuring her that I was there with her. I was on high alert
Ariana When I came to, I found myself in a cozy cabin, sleeping on a small bed. I jerked up from bed realizing I didn’t know this place. My heart began to pound vigorously in my chest as I darted my eyes around, searching for Lewis. Did they do something to him and kidnapped me? My stomach churned at the thought. I didn’t want anything to happen to him because of me. “Baby…” his voice snapped me back to reality and I whipped my head around to find him walking into the bedroom, his forehead creased but he sighed in relief after a few seconds. Jolting up from bed, I rushed to his side and threw myself into his arms, holding him tightly. “I thought… I thought something had happened to you.” I choked out a sob. My heart was still aching at the thought. We had done a really risky thing going to see a group of witches without a backup. “Shhhhh, I told you nothing can happen to me.” Lewis stroked my head and then pulled me away slightly while cupping my face. Before I could respond,
Ariana The moment we returned to the City, Lewis had me doing all sorts of exercises to strengthen my muscles. After learning the basics, he made me start lifting weights and I would do some boxing with him. He was training me and teaching me how to fight. According to him, I needed to learn how to fight in my human form before I could learn how to fight in my wolf form. We had set a date to head to the winter mist pack. They had left an address at the back of the photos they had sent to threaten me with. Lewis planned to make me stronger before we went there because we didn’t know what we would run into. It was going to be like a mini war and he had requested for more warriors from his pack to accompany us. “Ouch.” I winced when I tried to stretch in my seat. All that training had made my muscles sore and there was no place in my body that wasn’t paining. My thighs were killing me especially. I couldn't even do squats or get on top of Lewis during sex because of how much they wer
Lewis “Want to go for a drink?” I asked Tyson when I walked into his office before knock-off time. He raised an eyebrow, looking up at me from where he sat at his desk. “Sure, wouldn’t be a bad idea. Why the sudden urge to go for a drink though?” He asked suspiciously. “Ariana will be out tonight so I’ll get bored.” I said, running a hand through my locks with one hand in my pocket and I heard him chuckle. “Ahhh so that’s why. I thought you had become bored and wanted some time away from your mate.” “I would never get bored.” I hissed curtly. In fact, I would rather we be attached by the hip all the damn time but I didn’t want to suffocate her. That was why I let her know she was free to do what she wanted but I couldn’t help but get worried about her safety so I made a plan to go for a drink just nearby where they would be so I could keep my eyes on her. There were still bad guys out there to get her after all. “Mmmmm okay boss. We shall head out after 6, I’m working overtim
#This chapter is about Tyson and his POV. You can skip it if you don't want to read about it.# Tyson Ever since I knew about werewolves and that they existed, I had always wanted a mate of my own. I mean who wouldn’t? Have you seen how hot these werewolf dudes are? To be honest, I had a crush on Alpha James for a very long time but then I met Beta Lewis and I fell head over heels in love with him. Sadly, he was straight and he had just found his mate the moment he came to the human town. I was so jealous but what was more painful was I had to pretend I wasn’t into him so that he didn’t keep me at arms-length. Lewis is the nicest person I have ever met. Down to earth and always fun to talk to. He never made me feel inferior like the way Alpha James had that powerful aura always rolling off him in waves. I loved it when I got to talk to Lewis so even with little issues that could be relayed through texts, I would make sure I called him just to listen to his sexy voice. That’s wh
Ariana “She said if I left you she would give me the names so I…” I didn’t know how to say it. Would he think I’m evil? “I kind of shut her up.” I said, guilt flowing into me, remembering what I had done. ~A few minutes earlier in the bathroom.~ “I can give you their names and address but in exchange, you would have to leave Lewis and let me have him.” Keisha said haughtily and I could feel anger rushing through me at her words. Darkness tried to consume me and take over but I took deep breaths, calming my heart. “You must be out of your mind if you think I’ll give Lewis to you like he was some object.” I snapped at her, trying my best not to get too angry. “Well, I just wanted to help you out. You will lose him anyway because soon enough he will realize he doesn’t want a hybrid freak as his mate. He will realize I’m the right one for him. I grew up in a pack and know how packs work. I can also help him out in his beta duties. Unlike you who knows nothing about werewolf ways.”
Lewis I frowned, feeling annoyed that a lot of men kept looking at Ariana openly without restraint. I knew she would turn heads with the dress she was wearing today but I couldn’t stop her from wearing it since she liked it. Now I had to shoot warning glares at each fucker that dared to stare at her lustfully. She looked sexy tonight. I couldn’t keep my hands off of her and my eyes kept glancing at her exposed cleavage, making my shaft throb hard in my pants. When the spotlight shone on me, I took it upon myself to claim my mate in front of every man’s leering gaze. I grabbed her and kissed her amorously, only pulling away when she gasped for air. I wanted every man and woman in here to know that she was mine. To my annoyance, me kissing her in public didn’t seem to make some men stop staring at her. She was just too gorgeous. Especially when she smiled… she looked exquisitely stunning, leaving the crowd at a loss for words. Her face was the real epitome of beauty. The moment
Hi lovely readers. For those that have read this book till the end, thank you so much. I appreciate your support. For those still reading it, I would like to notify you that I'll be merging this book with book one, The Alpha's Rejection. You can still continue reading the book by checking the chapter title you left it at. And if you do happen to read the Alpha's Rejection when you've already read this one, do not read past chapter 50 because that would be the beginning of the Beta's Turmoil. Thank you so much for reading my work. I hope I keep bringing out content that would be worth your time. With love, Natie.
THREE YEARS LATER Lewis It was funny how time flies. One minute you’re a child and the next, you’re an adult who’s responsible for yourself and other people. In my case, I was a mate, a beta and a brother and a soon-to-be father. That’s right, Ariana and I had our wedding 4 months ago and now she was carrying our pup. A boy. She was the most beautiful bride I had ever seen and on that day, when she said I do, it was one of the best days of my life that I’ll cherish forever. The last three years have been nothing but blissful. Life was great. We would have problems here and there but nothing that was not solvable. After all, this is real life and not everything can be perfect. Alpha James and Zoe left on a honeymoon tour a month ago and left their pups in our care. They were living with us at our mini-mansion that I built for Ariana and I and boy, they were a handful. We had a nanny for all four of them. Matteo, Alpha James’ baby brother thought he was his brother’s son
Ariana I’ve been living in the blackmist pack for three months now and I can attest that it’s much better than the human town. I liked it here. At first, when I learnt that werewolves exist I thought they would be primitive and living like cavemen but they surprised me by being more modern than ordinary humans. The pack was designed like a small town. It had shopping malls, residential homes and a large packhouse where the majority of the wolves stayed. Mostly unmated ones stayed there. Despite the modern setup, the flora and fauna were not tampered with. We were still surrounded by a big forest. On full moon nights, we would go for pack runs which were led by the Alpha and Luna. And then most times, I would go on a love run with Lewis, my mate who had been nothing but lovely ever since I settled here. The only thing I missed from the human town was my aunt Judy. “Can you get me another dress? Where’s the red one I chose earlier? I look good in red.” Zoe asked one of the o
Lewis I ditched the car and ran to the orphanage since it would be faster that way. The Alpha had already begun running back to the pack after I called him to tell him his Luna had gone into labor. Taking off my clothes, I shifted and carried them in my mouth then I began to run as fast as I could. From the way Ariana kept poking into my mind every second, I knew she was freaking out. ‘Dr. Anthony prepare the Luna’s VIP ward she’s in labor.’ I mind-linked the doctor at the pack’s hospital. ‘What? That’s too soon. I’ll work on it right away.’ I continued to rush forward with Wesley in the lead. Being a beta wolf, he wanted to protect his Alpha’s pups. ‘Lewis! Hurry! I can see a head… oh my God! I don’t know what to do!’ Ariana’s shriek echoed in my head. ‘Calm down baby… You will scare Zoe. Take a few deep breaths and guide her… tell her to push as hard as she can. If the baby stays like that it will suffocate.’ ‘But I’ve never done this before.’ She responded, sounding sc
Lewis I felt like I was in paradise. At the break of dawn, I opened my eyes and found Ariana sleeping peacefully in my arms with a smile on her face. We were happy. And I hoped it remained so for the rest of our lives. I stroked her curly hair and leaned down, placing a kiss on her forehead. Ariana stirred, scrunching her eyebrows then inched closer to me, burying her face deeper into my chest. Having her back made me whole once again. I wouldn’t have survived without her and to think she had watched me die and had to experience the agony of the bond breaking filled me with intense guilt. That was not something I wanted her to go through. Ever. She had even gone as far as stabbing her heart to perform a dangerous spell to save me. That was the extent of her love for me. I could see it. I could feel it. A love so pure and true. What more can I ask for? I loved her just as much as she loved me and with each passing day that we are together, our bond grows stronger. All
Ariana I stared into Lewis’ eyes to check if he was telling the truth. Not that I didn’t believe him. It’s just that with our current situation, even I could come up with any reason that could help us be able to be together. He had just told me about how my mother and his father were childhood friends and that day, he was actually going to save her due to her call for help but unfortunately, he arrived late. “I have proof, baby… I can’t lie to you. You know that.” Lewis said with a pained expression. I cupped his face with my palms and pecked his lips. “I believe you. Even if you made something up I would always believe you.” I said and I meant it. “But I didn’t make it up my love. My father has recordings that you can listen to. I have them on my phone.” He said and took out his phone before I could stop him. We were seated on a two-seater couch in the small sitting room in the cabin after two more rounds of banging each other. I listened to the recording and when I heard
Lewis “Alpha, I’m leaving. I’ll only come back when I find my mate.” Alpha James raised his brow. “Are you sure? You’re going on a wild goose chase man. She could be anywhere.” Anger surged within me and I growled. “Are you saying I should give up on my mate? No way man… she’s mine and I’ll find her.” “How? By running around aimlessly like a headless chicken? Do you even have a clue where she is? If she doesn’t want to be found, do you think you can find her that easily?” I curled my hand, clenching it into a fist. He was right. I couldn’t just go searching without having a clue about Ariana’s whereabouts but what other choice do I have? Wait for her to calm down and come back on her own? What if she never comes back? What then? Being without her would kill me and my wolf. “I have to find her.” I said in a low voice, sounding defeated. “Come on man. We are wolves. We work smart, not harder. What’s the fastest way of finding someone in our supernatural world without using
Ariana I steeled my heart and chanted the teleporting spell while avoiding making eye contact with Lewis. I just couldn’t bring myself to look into his eyes. If I did, I was afraid I would decide to stay with him. But that was out of the question. Not after what I had found out. I had to leave for my parent's sake. I wouldn’t be able to face them knowing I had stayed with the people who took their life. Lewis just stood there, staring at me. And from my peripheral vision, I could see he was crying. My chest constricted seeing him like that. It hurt more that I had to leave him this way. I was punishing him for his father’s mistakes. It didn’t take long for the spell to take effect. As I was slowly getting sucked in, I snuck a look at Lewis. I wanted to see his enchanting face for one last time. I wanted to have it embedded in my mind forever. But the look of despair on his face crushed my heart. Now I would be stuck with his sad expression for the rest of my life. I shouldn’
Lewis I don’t know how long I had been staring at the spot where Ariana had vanished. My heart just couldn’t accept the fact that she was gone. She had left and this time I’m afraid, it’s forever. With the bad blood between us, there’s no way we could be together. For most of my life, I had never regretted any choices I made. Bad or good. Because I believed if you’re hesitant about something, you would still end up regretting whatever decision you make in the end. You would always ask yourself. What if? Could things have been different? I never wanted this type of uncertainty in my life so I was always decisive. But now, looking back, I deeply regretted bringing my mate to the pack. Perhaps I should have stayed with Ariana in the human town. I would be a CEO and she would do the work she loved. We would go back home together after a busy day at work, cook together, make love and do the same the next day just like normal people do. Most times people take advantage of thi
