Xavier

I held her all night long as she clung to me. My poor little berry was far too scared, and I didn’t like it. Banishment had been too kind, but despite his actions, I couldn’t hurt Lia. I had seen her grow up; she was like a sister to me. If it had been anyone else, I wouldn’t have hesitated.

Still, Renna seemed to have recovered. The only thing that still angered me was the bruised finger marks around her neck. She snuggled in closer until those intense sparks between us were driving pleasure through me like a lightning bolt.

I kissed her forehead softly as I peeled myself out of her hold and made my way over to the bathroom. I needed a cold shower after having her body up against me all night. Just my luck. We were mates, marked, and yet I hadn’t been able to claim her because of that bastard.

I didn’t blame her, of course. He attacked her. It just angered me so much that I wanted to rip him limb from limb for touching her like that, forcing her to touch him. Who knew what dam

    Xavier She went from a light squeal to a moan as I started to devour her body. I sucked on her neck before I looked back at her. “You're beautiful,” I whispered as our noses brushed together. She bit her lip, making me pulsate against her before I claimed her pout in a kiss as she wrapped her legs around my waist. There was a twinkle in her eyes when we broke apart before she started to pull at my clothes. Someone is impatient. I was torn between saving this outfit she wore so I could see it again and ripping it from her body. The latter half won out. Heck, I was rich. She could buy a hundred of these for me to rip off. She let out a little squeal as I removed all of her clothing apart from the coset and fishnet tights. I didn’t get much of a chance to enjoy how fucking hot she looked as she started ripping my own clothes from me. She was a little feisty thing, and I liked how she took charge. Her eyes flashed as she licked her lips when my rock-hard cock sprung free. Before I knew

    RennaSex with Xavier was like nothing I could have imagined. Not that I had anything to compare it to, but the undeniable pull between us only grew with each touch, kiss, and taste. Despite, the pain of him being inside of me, I couldn’t deny the overwhelming pleasure I took from it. It was as if he was designed for me and my body. Being my mate, I guess he was.It also helped that hands down he was the sexist man I had ever seen. Since he marked me, it’s like every nerve in my body was in tune with his. I felt to ripples of his pleasure through the bond which only increased mine.My body ached in ways it never had before, but that didn’t stop me from being hungry for me. I was glad I was mated to an alpha. Him having a high sex drive was definitely a benefit. Currently, he was in the shower after I’d conked out from his lovemaking. Now I was awake, though I was hungry for more.My wolf purred in approval as, with shaky legs, I got off of the bed and made my way across the room to th

    RennaI couldn’t believe it; I was so angry my whole body trembled with rage. I clenched my fists, seething with anger. How dare he think he could just claim my pack? What right did he have? My wolf growled ferociously, mirroring the anger that burned within me. I could never have imagined Ethan sinking so low, yet I couldn't fathom why I hadn't seen it coming, considering everything he had done before.Xavier was trying to console me with his words with his touch, but I was having none of it. It was white noise. I found myself grappling with the question of how he could do such a thing, but I soon realised it was futile to dwell on it. There was no hope of rescuing a man like Ethan. I had to concentrate on devising a plan to exact revenge and regain possession of my pack.“We need to stop this!” I yelled as I pushed Xavier off of me. I took a brief moment where my eyes betrayed me by roaming over his godlike body. He was so annoyingly sexy and it didn’t help matters that I saw his di

    XavierMy little sexy goddess was pure heaven and sin. I had enjoyed this time away, just the two of us; I was already planning more trips in my head for us because I knew once we were home, we wouldn’t get the opportunity to just enjoy each other like we had here.She may not realise this but she would now be expected to pick up her duties as Luna if she still wanted her job at Thornden’s then she could and no doubt once she met the council the pressure of an heir would come to her.Part of me hoped she was pregnant now; I hadn’t exactly been trying to knock her up, but equally, I hadn’t used any protection and spent the better part of the last few days inside her. She was my mate; I marked her and now we were mated, so to be honest, she didn’t need to be in heat for me to get her pregnant. I just hoped we could get past this revenge part before she was. I wasn’t sure what would be involved, and that always brought an element of danger to both of us.My sleeping princess was passed o

    RennaI was back at work things between Xavier, and I were not what they should be. He didn’t let me explain anything. I was working back on the bar with Leo, Elara had come up to say a quick hello giving me a swift hug which lifted my spirits after all of the drama I felt at home. I was even beginning to get to grips with making some of these cocktails.“So how was it?” Elara gushed as she pulled me back from another hug. I gave her a smile even as Leo was listening to my reply. I didn’t want to say too much. He was their alpha after all and, besides we would work through this blip in the road. So, I lied, or at least masked my feelings that were plaguing me currently.“It was really lovely, he can be really sweet when he wants to be,” I added as Elara gave me doe eyes making an aww sound and Leo suppressed a laugh with a cough well as long as one of them believed me.(Flash back to last night)Xavier walked through the door at 10pm after leaving me here for almost 6 hours.

    Renna All afternoon I had stewed over her words, letting them sink in deep into my bones. She was lying she had to be, but there was a part of me that wasn’t so sure. In the end, Leo had reached his limit with my huffing and puffing, and he firmly told me to go home, emphasising how quiet it was tonight. I agreed, although I was filled with apprehension about facing the music back home. Pulling up to the mansion, I parked my car outside. Switching off the engine, I could hear the distant chirping of birds in the quiet. I couldn't do this... how could I go in there and spend another night of him hating me, the silence between us suffocating? How can we trust each other if he won’t listen? I must have sat there for far too long; my bum was numb as I stared at the front door, tears spilling down my cheeks. I knew he was home. I could feel it through the bond, yet he didn’t come out to see me. No doubt he was too preoccupied with his precious Sage. I didn’t want to be bitter, but I hate

    XavierI went for a morning run today. I had back-to-back meetings and the last one of the days was with the elders. I was dreading it if truth be told, ever since I appointed them it was just all their nonsense. The problem was removing them would cause more damage than good. So, I just had to suck it up. I’m sure even after Ren and I have kids they will be chewing my ears off with something else that is needed doing yesterday.I ran around the pack boarder three times. Since Ren has been here, I haven’t been the best at keeping up with my training. I had been focusing on forging the bond between the two of us. I loved her more than I ever thought possible to love someone else. She had been in my life for almost 2 months and I couldn’t imagine life without her.Sadly, when I got home, Renna had already left for the day. I took a quick shower before driving to the office. I decided to mind link her, as I was a little disappointed. I didn’t get my morning kiss. “You left early this mor

    RennaSince my little bombshell to Sage, she has had me doing grunt work. Aka cleaning the hotel rooms and bathrooms. This time as well I’m on my own without the company of Elara to help me through it. Maybe I should quit but I stand by what I said to Xavier, I need to beat her and I can’t do that if I quit.The work isn't actually that bad now that I have tools and equipment to assist me, rather than relying on just my bare hands and a toothbrush. Additionally, I'm relieved that I no longer have to endure the presence of her annoying face. I am eagerly counting down the days until I can kick her out of her office.I’m almost certain she doesn't handle the management of this place effectively. If only I could actually sneak into her office to take a look at the books, then I wouldn’t need to continue with this charade. The fact she will never let me near them tells me I’m right. She’s underhanded at the best of times. Why would that not affect the rest of her work?I was cleaning one

    Renna We had been living in our cosy bubble of three for several weeks now. Me, Xavier, and Orion. The soft glow of the evening sun streamed through the curtains, casting warm hues across our living room. Xavier’s idea to name our son after my beloved dad filled my heart with joy. It had been just the three of us, cherishing every moment as a family. But tonight, I was eagerly bursting our bubble for a long-awaited date with my captivating alpha. I adorned myself in alluring lingerie, the delicate lace teasingly brushing against my skin. I yearned for our sexy time with my mate, I knew he was desperate for it too. However, our precious little Orion would inevitably interrupt our passionate rendezvous. His sweet cries would pierce the air, filling the room with an innocent melody of hunger and discomfort. The frustration began to well up inside me, like a simmering storm. Don’t get me wrong, I adore my baby Orion. He is the epitome of cuteness, the greatest blessing in my life. But e

    Renna “Push, Luna,” the midwife urges, her voice firm yet gentle, as I growl in her face. The sterile hospital room is filled with the rhythmic beeping of machines and the faint scent of antiseptic. Childbirth, a relentless storm of agony, floods my senses, making me question why anyone willingly endures this. No wonder I was an only child. Xavier, my partner, hovers around me like an annoying fly, fussing over me incessantly. The pain, like a thousand fiery tendrils, wracks my body as I summon every ounce of strength to push our precious baby into the world. “Ren, you’re doing amazing!” Xavier’s voice resonates with pride and excitement as he gently wipes the sweat off my forehead. I have to remind myself of my love for this man, even as I glare at his infuriating face for being the reason behind my pregnancy. A low growl escapes my lips, but he remains undeterred, his eyes filled with adoration. I can hear the rhythmic beeping of the heart rate monitor, a constant reminder of the l

    Xavier As I poured my heart out to her, the words flowed like a river. Was she merely manipulating me, using my vulnerabilities against me? The air felt heavy with tension as her words echoed in the room. “You rejected me, Xavier. I was destined to be the luna of this pack. he goddess ensured it and then you didn’t want me … I wasn’t good enough for you!” The scent of her anger hung in the air, mixing with the musky aroma of the room. Her words hit me like a wave, leaving me speechless and bewildered. “Sage, none of that is true,” I say, my voice filled with desperation, the words hanging in the air between us. I continue, my words tinged with sadness, “Yes, I rejected you, but it wasn’t my choice. The council forced me to do it.” I pause, hoping she will understand. Her head shakes, her eyes filled with disbelief, as if I am spinning a web of lies. “I was happy for you to be my mate,” I whisper, my voice breaking. I can feel the weight of the words, heavy on my chest. The room sud

    Xavier Now that Ren had regained her memories, life was filled with an undeniable sense of contentment. The sun’s warm rays gently caressed our faces as we strolled hand in hand through the park, birds singing their melodious tunes. I shared the news of the pregnancy, and though initially taken aback, her eyes sparkled with joy, mirroring the vibrant colours of the blooming flowers around us. I couldn’t help but notice the tender way she delicately rubbed her belly, a radiant smile adorning her face, as if whispering sweet secrets to our growing little pup. It was in those moments, when she thought I wasn’t looking, that I felt an overwhelming sense of love and anticipation. The weight of past worries and anxieties had dissolved, allowing us to embrace the future together, free from the burdens that once weighed us down. There was just one final task lingering before us, a mere formality standing between us and pure bliss. As we savored the moment, the air was filled with tranquilit

    Xavier Over the course of a few more weeks, I’ve noticed a significant change in Ren’s demeanour towards me. As I continue to work from home, our bond has grown stronger, and she now frequently sits beside me, her presence a comforting companion. However, the memory of our shared kiss lingers vividly in my mind, like a faint whisper of a distant melody. It’s been a while since that intimate moment, and while I sensed her enjoyment, a palpable restraint now holds her back. I attempt to read this email once again, but she becomes a constant distraction. Today, she deliberately dons an outfit that captures my attention. Her choice of tiny short shorts reveals the alluring curve of her silhouette with every step she takes. The sight of her crop top, barely concealing her ample cleavage with its deep V-neck, creates an irresistible temptation. I struggle to resist the overwhelming desire to approach her and give in to our carnal desires. I have been partially concealed behind the sturdy

    Renna I had spent a week in my so-called home, surrounded by familiar yet unfamiliar faces. Xavier, my companion, had rarely shown up at his workplace, instead opting to take me to my former workplace. There, amidst the bustling sounds and smells, I encountered a girl named Elara, her laughter filling the air like a melodic symphony, and a guy called Leo, his presence commanding yet comforting. Now, Leo had risen to the rank of beta within the pack. But as I observed them, I couldn’t shake the nagging thought that they could be more than mere acquaintances. They could be my long-lost siblings, hidden in the depths of my forgotten memories. Xavier’s words echoed in my ears, leaving me with a sense of emptiness. He claimed that I was an orphan, with no remaining family except for him. Conflicting emotions surged within me, unsure of how to process this revelation. As I glanced at myself in the mirror, my gaze fixated on the sight of my mate mark, while occasionally stealing glances at

    Xavier “I hope these words help jog your memory. But Ren, please know I would never hurt you.” The soft glow of the lamp envelops us as she nods, her eyes filled with trust. As I pass her the book, our fingers brush, sending a tingle down my spine. It kills me that this fleeting touch is the only physical connection we can share. “I... I know,” she smiles warmly at me, the corners of her lips lifting ever so slightly. In that moment, a glimmer of hope ignites within me, like a tiny flame flickering to life. With delicate hands, she takes the books from me, their weight transferring from my palms to hers. As she flips through the pages, the sound of paper rustling fills the room, a soft whisper that mingles with the hushed anticipation hanging in the air. Her eyes fixate on certain photos, her gaze lingering on them for what feels like an eternity. I watch intently, wondering if those images hold the power to jog her memory. “Xavier? Please, can you not hover,” she states, her voice

    Xavier We patiently waited for Renna to settle in, giving her a few days to find her bearings. Though she couldn’t recall my identity, the doctor assured us that being in the comfort of our own home would aid in triggering her memory. The familiar sights, the soothing scents, and the comforting ambiance of home were believed to be the key to her recovery. I prayed that my efforts were sufficient, but her wariness lingered, tormenting me. The urge to embrace and kiss her consumed me, but I couldn’t bear to see fear in my mate’s eyes. The weight of her past amplified my struggle; everyone she recalls is gone, leaving me alone to reassure her. It’s a battle of my words against her fading memories, an agonizing challenge. The doctor’s words echoed in my mind, leaving me with a heavy heart. There was no time frame for this, no definitive end in sight. All I could do was hope that once we returned home, things would improve. But the thought of not being able to sleep beside her, to feel t

    Renna I felt the warmth of his lips, a surge of sparks coursing through my veins. The sensation was exquisite, unlike anything I had ever experienced. It ignited a fire within me, spreading throughout my entire being, making every inch of my body feel hot and alive. The intense feeling travelled downwards, settling between my legs, creating a pulsating desire I had never known before. As I slowly opened my eyes, I heard a faint beeping sound, blending with the gentle sunlight that streamed through the partially closed blinds. The room seemed to come into focus, revealing an incredibly handsome man before me. His strong hands gently cupped my cheeks as he showered my face with kisses. My heart raced, confusion flooding my mind. Who was this man? Where was Ethan? Feeling a surge of panic, I instinctively pulled away from his touch. His eyes widened slightly, a flicker of hurt flashing across his face. “Who are you?” I rasp, my voice hoarse and strained. He slowly withdraws his hands
