#Chapter4

“Alpha Cain has requested a meeting. He wants to discuss a treaty between the packs to end the war.” I furrowed my brows, as did everyone else.

I didn’t believe my father; this never happened; Alpha Cain was not known for treaties. He always won the battle and left almost nothing and no one behind. So, the big question was why? What could he possibly want in exchange for concluding the war?

Dad walked over to my mother, kissed her, then looked deep into her eyes for a moment, and she smiled lovingly at him. I envied their relationship. He then straightened himself and extended his hand to her, and she gladly accepted.

He looked around at everyone. “Everyone needs to get some sleep; it has been a long and exhausting day. We need to rest; there is much to do tomorrow.” Dad then retreated to the hallway, with my mother close on his heels, and they bid us all goodnight.

Gunnar looked at us, nodded his head and then took his leave as well.

My sister was sitting there, looking so confused, horrified and anxious. I went to her side, rubbing her back in an attempt to comfort her. She peered up at me with sorrow-filled eyes and then embraced me in a shaky hug. I sat there with her in my arms as she sobbed.

I pulled her back from me and looked into her innocent blue eyes. “Adela, everything will be ok, do not worry or stress yourself. I want you to go and get some rest, ok?”

She closed her eyes and wiped the tears from her face. Then, nodding her head, she slowly got up from the couch and began to make her way out of the living room, but not before glancing back to me, and I gave her a reassuring smile. Adela then proceeded out of the living room, leaving just me and Erik alone.

I looked up at Erik, and he was standing by the fireplace staring attentively into the flames, with an inquisitive look on his face. I stood from the couch and walked to his side, squeezing his bicep. He slowly turned to face me, scanning my face with his eyes; his hand came up and caressed my cheek as his thumb glided over my bottom lip, making my thighs clench together in an attempt to smother the heat building between my legs. He then leaned down and kissed me gently.

His kisses soon became dominant and rough; as he trailed from my lips to my jawline and down my neck, nipping and biting at my sensitive skin. I moaned softly from the pleasure. Then, finally, he pulled back and looked at me with such a fiery lust in his eyes that the heat between my legs increased tenfold.

I looked around us and noticed we were alone; I grabbed his hand and led him out of the living room.

I led Erik downstairs to the basement where my bedroom was. We entered the room, which was dimly lit from the moonlight shining in through my window; he came in behind me and closed the door.

His arm snaked itself around my waist, pulling me into him, so my back was flush with his chest, and the other wrapped around me, roughly grabbing onto my right breast. He began to plant passionate kisses along my neck, nipping and licking his way down to my collarbone. His actions released lust-filled moans from me, making his hard cock twitch against my ass.

His hands came up to my jacket and gripped the collar before he yanked it down. His fingers then slowly trailed down my arms, tickling my skin. Finally, they stopped at the hem of my shirt, gripping it; he gently pulled it up over my head, then tossed it to the corner of my room.

He spun me around and planted a heated kiss on my lips as his fingers entwined within my hair. Erik bit my bottom lip with his teeth and tugged it gently before releasing it. I stepped back from him, undoing my pants and slowly pulling them off of my legs, leaving me in nothing but my bra and underwear. I climbed onto the bed and spread my legs for him, making him growl at the sight before him.

He tore his shirt off, which displayed his muscular chest and pants but left his boxers on, hiding and restricting his rock-hard cock beneath the fabric. Erik made his way towards me, a look of pure desire etched on his face; he teasingly climbed onto the bed, planting kisses on my inner thighs, making me tremble and my insides clench with arousal.

His hands snaked their way up my thighs, grasping the fabric of my underwear; he gripped it tight and pulled them down my legs, revealing my wet and aching pussy to his hungry eyes.

He nipped at my thighs, making me gasp with excitement. I could feel him grinning against my skin, knowing he had such an effect on me. Next, he brought a finger up to my folds and slowly traced it along my wetness, opening me up to him. Erik then pushed his finger inside me, making me moan with immense pleasure.

He pushed another finger inside of me and began to thrust in and out of me, causing more moans to release from me. Finally, his mouth came down on my clit, sucking and nipping at the sensitive flesh, causing my legs to shake violently, bringing my release even closer to the edge.

Noticing that I was close to an orgasm, he pulled his fingers back, making me whimper from the loss of contact. Then, he stood over me and removed his boxers, releasing his cock, which was stiff and throbbing.

Erik climbed back onto the bed and pressed his body to mine; he leaned down and planted a heated kiss onto my swollen lips. His cock was so close to my entrance, making me ache with the need for him to be inside of me.

I thrust my hips upwards in an attempt to tell him that I needed him to stop teasing me. But, instead, he looked into my eyes and grinned; his hands came down to my hips, gripping them tightly, and without wasting another moment, he thrust into me, deep and hard.

Our moans filled the room, killing the silence, sweat building on our bodies from the anticipation of our ascending climaxes. Erik’s fingers dug into my hips as he continued to thrust into me relentlessly. My nails raked down his back, causing his hips to jerk forward even harder.

Our eyes locked as we reached the peak of our pinnacles; he bent down, kissing me fervently and tugging at my bottom lip. Then, he adjusted himself inside of my wet pulsing core, causing his cock to tickle my g-spot, making the ever-growing orgasm inside of me finally burst.

My walls clenched tightly onto his cock, causing him to swell and throb inside of me. Then, a moment later, Erik pulled out and gripped his aching cock; he jerked it with one swift movement and then released himself onto my stomach.

He collapsed on top of me and braced himself with an arm on either side of me. Erik brushed the stray hairs from my face and placed a loving kiss on my forehead; he then rolled off of me and laid on the bed, relaxed and spent.

We laid there together, basking in the pre-orgasmic serenity for a while. Then, finally, I got up from the bed and lazily made my way to the bathroom to clean myself up. As I returned to the bedroom, I glanced at Erik, perched on my bed, fully dressed and reading a book.

I walked over to him. “Are you leaving?” I asked him.

He looked up from the book. “Yes, I don’t think I should stay the night. Especially, with your brother in the house, he would kill me, particularly if he found out what I do to you,” He replied, with a cocky tone and smile.

Erik got up from the bed before pulling me flush against his body and hugging me. We stayed like that for a moment, and then he pulled back, kissed me and left as if he were never there.

I collapsed onto the bed, exhausted and consumed by the events of the day. But as beat as I was, my thoughts took over, causing me to question everything that had happened today. I laid there with one thing on my mind, or should I say one person, Cain. All I could think of was my encounter with him, the way I felt around him, and the sensation that built between my legs due to his proximity. I also wondered why he let me go, why he retreated his warriors and was now offering a treaty to end the war; it was a burning question that I needed to know the answer to, or I might go mad. I attempted to settle my thoughts and push them to the back of my mind for now. Finally, I rolled over, buried myself into the bed and closed my eyes, praying for the sleep that I desperately craved.

Closing my eyes tightly, I pulled my blanket up and over my head in an attempt to shield myself from the blinding light. I barely slept; my mind raced all night from everything that had happened the previous day. Thoughts of the battle surged through my brain, Mikael’s death, the Dead pack retreating, but mostly I thought about Alpha Cain and our encounter. I thought about how attractive he was, how his closeness made me wet and caused tingles to shoot through my whole body. I thought about his words, his threats and especially how he had let me go, but not before telling me that we would meet again; what did he mean by that? Also, why did he want to propose a treaty? That was the biggest unanswered question. Pushing aside my endless thoughts, I got up from the bed and headed for the bathroom. First, I took a nice long shower, washing everything away. I then got out, brushed

After finishing up in the kitchen with mom, Adela and the others, we headed to the main hall to set everything up. We arrived at the hall, and it was packed already. Everyone was in mourning and crying; the atmosphere was beyond depressing. I noticed Erik standing in the crowd, speaking with his parents; he glanced in my direction and smiled. I smiled back at him and placed the food on the tables. Once everything was prepared, we all headed towards the river to begin the funeral. On the edge of the river stood the pyre; it was breathtaking. The structure was built from oak wood logs, adorned with Gracie oak flowers and personal items were scattered all over that loved ones had placed. In the middle was Mikael, wrapped in a black blanket accented with gold stitching; it was beautiful, he was beautiful and was taken too soon. Everyone gathered aroun

He informed me that if you go with him, he will end the war and sign a peace treaty between the packs.” He looked to be pained saying this.“No, I won’t do it, dad! I will not go with him!” Anger was flowing through me now, like a never-ending river. Dad pinched the bridge of his nose. “Freja, you need to understand the situation. Alpha Cain has made it crystal clear that he will come and destroy the pack if you do not go with him. Leaving no one and nothing behind, and then he will take you by force. Either way, he will get what he wants.” He replied, raising his voice. “So, then we fight, we recruit other packs to stand

He brushed his lips against my ear ever so gently and whispered, “I always win at hide and seek, baby.

I just came in to say goodbye to everyone.” I said as my voice cracked with sadness.Mom began to cry and whimper; then, she engulfed me in a tight, comforting hug. “Everything will be alright, sweetheart; I’m sure he will allow you to visit or us to visit you.” She was trying to reassure me of things and make me feel better about the whole situation. I loved her even more for that because we both knew I was fucked! I looked at Adela and reached out to hug her. She began sobbing silently, and I rubbed her back, trying to comfort her. “It’s ok, Adela, I’ll be fine,” I said, trying to reassure her. “I know you will be; it just isn’t fair,” She replied between sobs.

    #Chapter10Cain was leaning against the car with his arms folded across his chest, impatiently waiting for me, and he appeared to be irritated. I smiled and laughed internally. He glared at me while raising a brow. “Are you finished? I would like to get going sometime soon instead of next year.” He growled. I rolled my eyes and began walking towards him; I had the sudden urge just to run as fast and as far as I possibly could. However, that stupid annoying ass voice in my head kept telling me that if I did, it would be the most foolish mistake of my life. As I approached the car, to my surprise, Cain opened the car door for me, raising his arm and motioning for me to enter the vehicle. As I stepped into the car, Cain took my bag and closed the door after taking my seat. He got into the car a moment later, started the engine and drove off. I sat there in my seat, feeling defeated and a little bit broken. I stared at my home that was fading within the distance, where my loved o

Anyone that I do not introduce you to, you are not to speak to at all. After that, you will be given a tour of the areas that you need to be familiar with when it is convenient.” He gripped my elbow a little tighter before continuing. “And I will not repeat myself on this one; you are to watch that pretty little mouth of yours; I will not tolerate being embarrassed in front of my pack. Do I make myself clear?” I narrowed my eyes at him. “Crystal.” “Good girl,” He said in a sarcastic voice while petting the top of my head. I pulled away from him and stared daggers at him. Cain grinned. “I am going to have so much fun breaking that defiant spirit of yours, my love,” Cain said as he opened one of the doors and practically shoved me inside.

    #Chapter12We reached the top of the stairs and went down the hallway to our right. Portraits were hung along the grey painted walls, a few chaise lounges, with small tables and lamps decorating the hallway. However, what had caught my eye was the massive, black door at the end of the hallway. Finally, we reached the broad wooden door, which was even taller up close. Calyx gripped the door handle, swung it open and led me inside the room.“This is Cain’s room and now, yours as well,” He said as he gestured around the room. I froze, thinking about what Calyx had just said to me. “Wait……Cain will be staying in here with me?” I asked obliviously, hoping I had heard him wrong. He chuckled. “Well, yea. It’s his room, and you are his mate.” He stated as if I had just asked the stupidest question. My wolf growled in my head as my nostrils flared, and I clenched my fists at my sides. “I’m not his mate.” I said through gritted teeth, “And, I won’t be sharing a room with him. I would lik

    #Chapter171People started to approach, congratulating us and bombarding us with questions. Suddenly, I felt sick to my stomach, and my head felt fuzzy, as my vision doubled. I looked up at Cain. “I need to use the washroom,” I said quickly, then spun on my heel, practically running towards the bathroom. I made it to the bathroom and hurled the contents of my stomach into the cold porcelain toilet. Once I was finished, I stood from the floor and leaned over the sink, steadying myself. I closed my eyes and attempted to regulate my breathing and erratic heart rate. As I opened my eyes again, I was no longer in the bathroom but back in the forest of the damned and standing before the willow tree. I glanced around frantically, wondering what the fuck was going on. Helena appeared out of nowhere, scaring the life out of me and causing me to gasp. “Holy shit! You scared me.” I shouted at her. She raised a brow and gave me a deadpan stare. “Watch that tongue of yours.” Helena scolded m

Then, the day after our mating, we had Samara and Eve’s funeral, saying our goodbyes and laying them to rest. It was a beautiful farewell; friends and family had gathered around, saying something about the fallen pack members before Cain put them into the ground. Due to their crimes, Cain and I had decided to do things differently regarding a funeral for Calyx, Adela and Erik. Aside from what they had done, they were family and deserved a proper burial. So we decided to bury the trio on the border of both packs and kept things modest, saying a simple goodbye before coating their bodies in soil.As time went on, I slowly learned how things worked around here and adapted to my duties as Luna. Things were a bit rough for a while, but Cain was supportive and guided me through things, being patient with me as

She abruptly stopped as we exited through the doors. “I need to cover your eyes.” She told me. I furrowed my brows. “Why?” I asked hesitantly. She gave me a warm and comforting smile. “Just trust me.” Violet requested of me, and although I was reluctant, I did trust her. I nodded and allowed her to cover my eyes with her hand, knowing that I would be safe with her. Violet held my hand in hers and guided me through the yard, warning me of any obstacles in my way, so I didn’t trip and make a fool of myself. Not knowing where we were going or what the fuck was going on made me feel quite uneasy. My heart rate increased, my chest rising and falling heavily, as we continued to walk. I huffed in frustration, becoming impatient now. “I don’t like this, you know,” I told Violet honestly, and she chuckled at me. Did she think I was joking?After a few moments, we finally

Cain entangled his hand within my hair, gripping the strands with his fingers, and he closed the distance between us, capturing my lips with his. Cain lifted me up and off his lap. He laid down on the cool sheets, flat on his back and pulled me into him, wrapping his arm tightly around me as he yanked me closer to him, leaving no space between us. Cain kissed the top of my head, lingering there for a moment. Both of us were comfortable, feeling content in each other's arms as the heavyweight of sleep wrapped around us. This moment almost felt surreal, like everything was a dream. Cain had nearly died, I had almost lost him, and I could’ve died, to be honest, a piece of me did. I got Cain back, but I had lost something that meant just as much to me as he does. I could only hope that she was alright and happy wherever she was. I woke up, and the bed was empty; slight panic stirred within me, as I didn’t

    #Chapter167“I think you need to be taught a lesson.” He said in a seductive and husky tone. I squeezed my thighs together as the lust for him grew. “Yes, I do,” I whispered, and Cain released a satisfactory growl before nipping my ear. He reared back, then flipped me over and onto my back. Cain straddled me, careful not to put his full weight on me and then ripped my shirt in half. I wasn’t wearing a bra, and he seemed pleased with this, as a smile spread across those plump lips while he cupped my breasts in his hands and rolled my nipples between his thumb and forefinger. Cain stood from the bed and removed what was left of my shirt. He ripped the torn fabric in half again before flipping me back onto my stomach. Then, straddling me once again, Cain tied my hands together with a piece of the shirt before tying the other end to the bed post. My panties were soaked from my juices, as the desire to have him was stronger than ever. Once he was finished tying me, he rubbed his hand

Once he was gone, I laid down on the bed, letting more tears stream down my face again. I screamed internally at the anger and grief that was consuming my mind and body. I sucked in a deep breath, trying to calm myself and decided to have a shower. I got up from the bed and started walking to the bathroom but stopped, my eyes drifting towards the balcony doors. I walked over to the doors, whipping them open and stepped outside. There was a storm brewing in the sky, and it was now raining. I stood there, the rain soaking my body, and I fell to my knees. As I rubbed my hands down my face, feeling more overwhelmed and distraught by the second, I looked to the sky and asked why? Just as I expected, I got no response, no answers, and I felt more lost than I ever have in my life. I closed my eyes and slowly stood to my f

    #Chapter165I peered down at Cain, my eyes taking in his exhausted features. Cain wasn’t wearing a shirt, only a blanket covering him. I slid the blanket down, revealing his once muscular physique and seeing him in such a withering state made my chest ache. My hand glided along his skin, stopping above his heart, and I could feel his weakened heart slowly beat against my palm. I reached down for the powder and opened the bottle before sprinkling the yellow substance onto his chest. Then, just as Helena instructed, I grabbed the moon rock next and placed it on top of the powder, in the center of his chest. I closed my eyes for a beat and sucked in a deep breath, trying to calm my frazzled nerves. Next, I repeated the words she told me. “Death be no more and life come forth,” I said aloud, my voice cracking slightly. I then sat back and watched him curiously. My eyes frantically searched Cain’s statuesque frame for any movement, but there was nothing. His chest began to rise and fal

I closed my eyes and reminded myself of who I was, that I am a fucking warrior. I lifted my arm and elbowed Erik in the stomach, causing him to release me. He stumbled backwards and clutched his stomach, but that only lasted for a second before he stood to his full height again, glaring daggers at me. I looked around the ground and spotted a large, fallen tree branch. I hurriedly picked up the branch and swung it at him furiously. However, Erik found this amusing and started to laugh at my feeble attempt to attack him. I swung at him again, the branch brushing against his chest this time, and his playful expression quickly vanished. Erik leapt forward, coming straight for me, but he didn’t get too far, as suddenly, he was lifted from the ground.

I stilled, deciding to stay where I was and instead propped myself up onto my elbows. “What the fuck, Erik?” My tone's anger and the hurt of his betrayal only grew. His upper lip curled into a snarl as he narrowed his eyes. “That cure is coming with me.” He growled out, his tone deep and demanding. I snorted and then gave him a deadpan stare. “Over my dead body.” Even though I was shitting my pants right now, as he had an advantage over me, I refused to let him take what was rightfully mine. I had earned this cure and gave up a piece of myself in the process, just to get it. Erik stepped closer, his feet on either side of my legs now, trapping me in my place, before stopping and sn
