Sarafine said goodbye after our conversation, which was more than fine with me. I didn't have to talk about it any longer.I lay down on my bed and stared at the ceiling. There was a lot to think about. Way too much. The thoughts in my head raced. My life had become one big mess.The fear that I would soon have to face Xavier nagged at me. The man could do anything to me. He kept getting angry, so Xavier would find a reason again. And I dreaded it.So I hid in my room for the rest of the day. I didn't want to go out and face reality, it scared me too much for that. Lilia eavesdropped on my thoughts and said, "Layla, you have been chosen by the moon goddess to be the perfect Luna for the most powerful pack. After all, we are Xavier's mate. So you are neither weak nor afraid. We're going out of this now, and we'll do it with our heads held high ." I just couldn't. Lilia was right, we were chosen as Luna, but this was all new and unexpected. In addition, Xavier lived in this house.How
I was frozen at that tone and unable to come up with an answer. An answer I didn't have in the first place.What did I do to him? No, I basically did nothing. I would voluntarily avoid him. It just wasn't possible for me tonight because Xavier asked for my presence, or rather forced me to.His black eyes pierced me and that made this whole situation that much more awkward.Still able to think, Lilia said, "Tell him we're mates. I think he means the mate band." That sounded realistic and was definitely a possibility.I cleared my throat and Lilia had given me a little courage. So I managed to answer quietly, "We're mates, if that's what you mean." Our eye contact continued, but I couldn't quite make out what was going through this man's mind. He made it anything but easy for me.I cleared my throat and dared again: "I basically do nothing, this is the mate band that the moon goddess gave us." Maybe that appeased him and saw that it wasn't my fault.Lilia gushed: "The moon goddess, wh
A whole two weeks went by and I heard absolutely nothing from Xavier. I didn't see him once. I spent most of my days with Melody. Sarafine had stopped by a couple of times and we'd become friends.I've only been here a short time, but had already made two friends. I could be proud of that.The only problem was that I hadn't seen Xavier again. Lilia spun the bike and could hardly stand it. She infected me with that and I felt this restlessness myself.How did Xavier stand it? He had to feel it too. Or was it possible not to feel it? If so, he should give me tips.I had planned to do it today. I would go ahead and see him again. Before I went completely insane and wanted to appease Lilia.I had been awake for two hours waiting for Melody to finally come. I didn't take a step in the estate without her. I avoided unnecessary trouble.Finally the door opened and I shot up from the bed. Melody walked in with a big smile and said, "Good morning Layla." I was too nervous to smile, but I tried
Xavier left his office and I immediately followed him. I practically had to, and my heart was racing even more than before. We would seriously do something together. My physical reaction was forgiven and it was justified.Lilia said, "Oh, that's exciting. I'm so excited." I should put her on a leash and calm her down. Bringing them to reality would be just as sensible. "Let's see how that turns out, Lilia. This man has severe mood swings.""Time with your own mate is always good. You can't find an alternative word for that." But I could, and infinitely many with Xavier. But basically it was my own fault, after all I had asked him. Xavier walked pretty fast, which made me almost run. The problem with short feet, others walked quickly, so I had to start jogging.We exited the house through the front door and Xavier headed for a car.Theoretically I could ask where we were going, but I didn't dare. He may be looking calm at the moment, but I definitely wanted to keep that vibe. We both
When his lips met mine, I immediately felt those wonderful sparks. I kissed back and when I kissed, the sparks were like an explosion. It felt incredible. I automatically returned the kiss. I could never have done otherwise and I wanted that kiss too. Just for the sparks.His lips moved against mine in perfection. Those perfect soft lips against mine. That feeling was incredibly intoxicating. The sparks, I couldn't get enough of it, rather not enough of this man.Xavier didn't seem to see it any differently and picked me up. I wrapped my legs around him and put my arms around his neck. He held me by my thighs and pinned me against a tree with my back. A little tight since he was so boisterous, but I didn't care.The kiss deepened and I laced my fingers in his hair. Best of all, we never stop doing it.Sparks, sparks, just sparks.The kiss had a hint of desperation. It had taken far too long for my mate to finally kiss me. It usually never took that long. We were late sinners then.Bu
The next week was pure agony. I didn't meet Xavier once. He was swallowed up by the ground. The reality was more that he avoided me. As painful as it was to admit it, it certainly was.I spent my days with Melody, otherwise there wasn't much going on. I soon went completely insane in that house. Which is why I wanted to take a risk today.I wasn't sure if it was because I needed to get out before I went insane. Or if it was because I was hoping to get Xavier's attention.The desperation waved wildly, because it would be negative attention. He would most likely react badly to that. But that would at least prove to me that the man at least felt something. Even if it's just anger.I waited for Melody outside my room door because I couldn't wait. Of course, it also depended on her whether my plan was implemented, but I would fix that. Hmm, theoretically I could lie to her too. Although that wouldn't be fair.Finally, I heard footsteps on the stairs, so I hurried over. They were light and
Everything froze inside me and I was no longer able to move. Beside me, Sarafine had stiffened as well.Whether I would survive now was a very good question.Xavier stood in front of me and I didn't dare look at him. He snatched the phone from me and growled deeply.Sarafine cleared her throat and said, "Xavier, calm down. Layla just wanted to call her family. Otherwise they'll be worried."I dared and looked up at him. That face spoke of incredible anger. Exactly the way you never wanted to face him.He turned to Sarafine and asked, "Why are you in town? What were you thinking?" His voice sounded too calm, which is why it triggered a strong unrest in me. That quiet voice didn't go with his facial expression at all. This bomb could go off any second.Lilia was still alive and added her mustard: "Angry or not, the man is rarely attractive anyway. Look at him, no, this sight is divine. And somehow it's hot when he's angry. Don't you think? "I should urgently seek a psychologist for my
My dramatic departure was short-lived. Before I knew it, Xavier grabbed me and threw me over his shoulder. He growled and said, "You won't take another step without me." No, enough was enough. Now I would defend myself. I pounded his back and yelled, "Put me down!" That didn't impress him at all, because he carried me on without any problems. "Xavier!"I kept patting his back. Maybe it would do something. A low growl came from him, but that never stopped me. I was far too angry, which I had to let out when I had found the courage to do it. I was turned off, which surprised me a lot. I looked up at Xavier and his eyes were black again or still.He said menacingly, "You do what I tell you now, otherwise there will be consequences. You can't just do what you want. Is it in your head or..."I dared and snapped at him, "I'm not a bloody dog! You have no right to treat me like that!""You're mine! Legally, thanks to the contract and as..." I said assertively, "No. You may have bought me,
My morning awakening was to a four year old whining, "Dad." I was still half asleep, but already had to laugh a little.I opened my eyes and looked to the other side of the bed. Our little daughter sat on Xavier's chest and lifted one of his eyelids.Of course, that was a good way to wake up your dad on a wonderful Sunday morning.With a smile I said: "Good morning Antonia." She grinned cheekily at me and replied, "Morning mom."Then she turned back to Xavier, who grumbled. She lifted his other eyelid and said, "Wake up daddy."The little thing was way too cute.She had left our door open, so Adele came right in. I sat up, because of course sleep was out of the question.Adele exclaimed enthusiastically: "Good morning!" She came towards us and I greeted her in the same way.Xavier was now just as awake and said sleepily: "Good morning, girls, what a nice awakening." Antonia had to giggle and he had managed to open his eyes by now.Adele climbed onto our bed and sat next to me. I strok
I rushed towards Jason and when I got to him I practically threw myself into his arms. He hugged me tightly and Xavier cleared his throat as a result. That was understandable for me, because it was very likely that he wanted to remind me of the pregnancy, which is why he found firm hugs questionable. For Jason, on the other hand, there shouldn't be a logical explanation.I skillfully ignored my mate and said, "Hi Jason. You have no idea how happy I am that you guys are here." A wide grin automatically found my lips and I felt pure euphoria inside me. He kissed my head and replied, "Me too. Finally I see your new home."Exactly, he didn't know that. Then my brother now knew that I had it good and where exactly I lived. It might be better for his soul if he saw it for himself.Incidentally, I heard Xavier greet Ana and then I heard another clearing of my throat. With a sigh, I let go of my brother and in the mindlink I said to my mate, "Calm down. It's all good."What was he thinking? N
After a while we were snuggled up in bed. We were spooning and Xavier had put a hand on my stomach. It may not be much yet, but it was incredibly nice that he was so happy. It made me feel good about myself and brought me joy.Xavier said: "We should invite your family, then you can tell them personally." I had to smile because that was a very good idea. I wanted to see their faces when they found out. Although a phone call would be fine too. Unfortunately we lived very far away from each other."Yes, that would be great. However, I'd settle for a phone call. Who knows when they'll even have time."He sighed and said: "You can at least ask when they could come over. I'm pretty sure that at least Finnick and Marie could come."He had a good argument there. It was much more difficult with Jason. As an Alpha, he had enough to do. However, he had never visited before. One day he should be able to set it up. After all, even Xavier had made it.I took Xavier's hand from my stomach and kisse
The rest of the wedding party had been beautiful. We had a lot of fun and there wasn't a minute of boredom. How could it even have existed when we were surrounded by our best friends?The wedding dance with Xavier had gone perfectly. The others had also participated afterwards and we had used the garden as a dance floor. It was a bit of a challenge in heels, but I can proudly say I managed it.The wedding cake was exactly what I wanted. In the short time they had managed this very well.The night had been very alcoholic, which is why I had a little trouble remembering in the morning. But luckily the memories came back. It would be a shame if you couldn't remember your own wedding. That would have been the real tragedy.At least the werewolves didn't get headaches with a hangover. We could spare ourselves the pain. Not being human definitely had its perks.I was still in bed with Xavier and we enjoyed the time together. Cuddling with him was always lovely. When he had his arms tightly
Everything had gone according to plan so far, no matter what would come next or go wrong, it wouldn't be dramatic. The most important thing had been the chapel, at least in my opinion.With Xavier at my side, I left the chapel and as soon as we were a few steps from the building, he pulled me to him. I looked up at him in shock and the next moment he kissed me. This time it was a real kiss and not a short one like the one after our wedding.It was the kind of kiss that made you feel love, and it was incredibly beautiful. We didn't drag it out forever because we had guests and the celebration was still to come.As we broke the kiss we looked each other in the eye and Xavier said: "You look really stunning my Luna." With a smile I replied: "My alpha, I have to return the compliment." I heard Melody clapping his hands and saying, "To the newlyweds, we have dinner and a party ahead of us." That's why I had to laugh and looked at her, nobody could miss the wide grin. Sarafine next to her
With the dress it had been a struggle to get me in the car. That had been difficult, but we managed it. With the pile of tulle, it was a real miracle. But the girls and I did our best.According to Melody, the men were at our destination. Apparently they had been able to prepare everything, I was very excited about that. Who knows how much they were able to implement as it was very spontaneous.Melody and I had created the plan for the small wedding, but organizing everything so quickly was a big challenge. I was surprised at what our men had achieved.I stayed quiet for the ride and looked out the side window. Melody and Sarafine talked all the time, but I wasn't really listening. It was probably about the wedding.I was nervous now, but I was just as happy. It was a great experience in life, you were just excited. Don't forget that you only get married once if it's done right.Since Xavier and I were mates, it would probably end well if we both survived. If one died then logically n
laylaMelody and I were completely immersed in our madness. We tore the previous preparations off the pin board and stored them neatly in a pile. Later we could dispose of them in the same way or do something else with them. In the meantime we had found the tailor shop and I devoted myself to the last details of my dress. It was almost done and I loved it. I outdid myself with that, because it really was my dream dress.Melody kept me company and we continued to discuss the wedding on the side. However, this planning was much simpler. If it was a small celebration, there was a lot less to think about. Not to forget that it was more romantic and personal.I was really looking forward to the wedding and couldn't wait. I was very nervous at the big party. So many things could have gone wrong or I might have done something embarrassing. I could believe that.With the new plan, everything went much more smoothly.I got up from my seat and said, "Let's try and stuff myself in this behemoth
The nervousness had long since caught up with me as I was waiting for Xavier in the bedroom. While I was also curious about Blake's decision, my current concern was something else.The Sarafine bombshell meant Xavier was certainly thinking about children himself. So I wanted to talk to him about it again and properly this time. It had been a rather short conversation last time.I felt it was unfair to just start on the pill. So I wanted to talk to him before I did. Then there were a lot fewer points of contention if we had talked about it beforehand.Besides, we were grown up and getting married soon. You should talk about things like that.It had been really nice with Sarafine. We chatted about all sorts of things, but eventually she got too tired. Pregnancy also demands a lot from a body.So we came to the current situation, in which I was pacing up and down the room. I thought about a suitable text, which was difficult.Lilia piped up, "You're only doing it because you think it won
Xavier and Jarek had been arguing forever about Elias' motives. They didn't get the right result. Hopefully they'll get the answers when they're interrogated.I just got into the hospital wing and was going to see Melody. According to the doctor, everything was fine with her. Still, they wanted to keep Melody there for one night for observation.Her family had sent her back home, so I was on my way to see her. I was really looking forward to it when I could finally take her in my arms.The last few hours had been very nerve-wracking.Of course, Hendrik and Linus followed me. Xavier wouldn't have let me go to the hospital wing otherwise. The situation had calmed down, but my beloved mate preferred to play it safe. As you just knew him.The ground floor had looked pretty battered. Proof that someone was stupid enough to attack our pack.We arrived at Melody's door and Hendrik knocked. It was annoying, at least I could do it myself, but I kept quiet. He was just doing his job and I shoul
