Kane
"You didn't intend to do that, but I feel used. You fucked me like you were fucking a bitch and then peeled yourself away from me like I'm toxic." Selena's eyes finally travel up to meet mine in the reflection of the mirror.
I can't describe the things I'm feeling now. The regret of what I have done and the awareness that I hurt my mate tear me apart. But it's not about me, and it never would be. It's all about Selena and her feelings.
"I'm so sorry, I lost control and took you as if you were a wolf, which, of course, you aren't. I was horrified when I realised what I was doing. That's why I got away from you so suddenly. I'm so damn sorry, Selena. Are you hurt or in pain? Did I hurt you inside? Maybe you need a doctor? I can call one right now; he, no
Hi, hello, yes, it's me again - back with more smut. I'll take this opportunity to ask readers- if you haven't left a review of the book on the main page (under synopsis, star rating), I'd be so incredibly grateful if you would! I hope you are enjoying the book so far. Things are about to take a turn soon, so brace yourself.
Kane"It's time to wake up, love," I open the bedroom curtains.My eyes sweep the horizon- Selena and I have spent the last two weeks of the heat in the apartment. I left only when necessary to get groceries or meet with the Keeper to discuss the possible position I might take.I'm still not sure if I want to be a King. While I took care of everything, Selena preferred to stay indoors.She would call her family or talk to my mother for hours when I left. That's another concern- I'm not sure if the change in my mother is real or if this is another step toward a brand new, sick idea of how to sabotage my happiness."Five more minutes,"
KaneDespite her pleas to let her go alone, I decide to drive her to the packhouse to ensure Selena's safety. No matter how much time we spend together or how close we get, I can't let her go.I've learned to trust Selena, but I can't say the same thing about my mother. Not even close. And I still need to learn how to trust the pack members who live under my mother's roof.The heat season is over, and everyone's getting back into the swing of things, but I still can't be absolutely sure of that yet either. All I want to do is protect Selena and keep her safe until I'm sure there's no danger to her life."I know the way to the packhouse; it wouldn't bother me if I had to walk, you know. Besides, you have an imp
SelenaAfter Kane left, his mom made us tea, and we had the best time together. Laughter, jokes, and a little gossip.Well, at least for an hour or so.We sit in silence, I'd say comfortably, until she jumps up and startles me. I raise an eyebrow as Luna turns her back to me."Selena, I need to excuse myself for a moment."Though the statement is sharp, I whisper, "Okay."She disappears down the hall, leaving me in the living room. As a few minutes pass, I become suspicious. I'm in her house; any other wolf can come here and question me.
Kane"Why isn't she calling yet?" I hiss as I look at my phone for the hundredth time. My fingers are literally glued to the device- I lock and unlock it every few seconds."She's having fun," Thaddeus groans. I get that he's not happy that I'm paying so much attention to the damn phone, but there's no need to act like something's up his ass.Just as I'm about to give him a piece of my mind, Selena's name appears on the screen. "Speak of the Devil," I whisper, grinning like an idiot."Yes, love?" I answer the call and lean back in the chair."Kane, I'm p-" Selena shouts right before the call ends. I jump up and tap the screen to call her b
Kane"Kane? What are you doing here?" The Keeper invites himself into my office. His gaze settles on the broken furniture and the bottle in my hand."She wasn't there," I groan."What do you mean she wasn't there? Drop it and tell me it's a joke. Tell me you're celebrating, not drowning the pain," Thaddeus sits down across from me and lets out a deep sigh.We had hoped that the trackers would find Selena, but her scent faded as soon as they reached the border. That's impossible- a person can't just vanish into thin air."But what if she really left..." Ever since Selena disappeared, I couldn't get rid of the doubt. I don't trust my m
Selena "Does the baby trouble you?" I turn my head to the right to face the woman responsible for my care. As far as I can see, she's pretty young, but I've been told that many of the Guardians are hundreds of years old, so I don't dare to question her. She hands me a pillow, but before I can grab it, she pulls it back and helps me lie down. "I'm okay; thank you for your care. I really appreciate everything you do for the baby and me," I smile at the woman as she helps me to force the pillow under my back. "You meant babies," she corrects me. I open my mouth, but
Selena If I don't think about the Guardians surrounding me, I'm left alone for the most part of the day. Men don't come near me- only women, and even they stay only until I answer their questions. My life is as lonely as never. Although there are many beings around me, I still feel alone. The Guardians were kind enough to get me cribs and some mandatory supplies for the babies. However, the bigger my bump gets, the more I cry for Kane. I'm just as guilty before him as the Guardians are- we're all hiding from the father of my children. I stare at the tiny beds as a loud hiss leaves my lips. I don't understand what's happening as a couple of women rush into the cabin.
Kane"You cleaned. No empty bottles; the office doesn't smell like a whiskey factory. Good job, I'm impressed." Cody marches into the office and settles on the sofa."Self-pity won't get me anywhere. If I don't do something, no one will find Selena." I stare at the stack of paperwork that has become a part of my life since I accepted the damn title.After a few minutes of silence, I sigh, drop the pen, and look at Cody, "Alright, you got it.""Got what?""My attention, you got all my damn attention. The paperwork won't do itself, so entertain me, tell me something good. Don't bother saying anything if it's another problem on my shoulders.
Kane povSelena's eyes focus on me as she bites her lower lip and parts her legs, exposing her dripping sex to my gaze. I growl and lower myself onto her. With the first stroke of my tongue, Selena tries to squeeze her thighs back together.Another low grown leaves me, warning her to stop defying me. I drop to my knees next to the bed and grab Selena's hips to pull her closer to my mouth. I hold her thighs roughly, keeping them apart as I feast on her juices like a desperate, hungry animal.I lick, suck and nip on her as Selena moans out my name. She cries out in shock as I move my lips lower, thrusting my tongue inside her.I fight a smile as I notice her gripping the bedsheets, digging her nails deep enough to
Kane povShe lets out a shaky breath, and once again, I grip on my chance like a fool. "I can feel your heart pounding, fuck it, I can hear it, Selena. You want me just as much as I want you." I let my hand sneak under her shirt, gently stroking her heated skin, slowly tracing it up to her breast. As soon as I cup it, a deep, low growl forms in my chest.If it's possible, I manage to pull Selena closer to me and force my erect cock against her ass to show her just how much I want her. Selena gulps, louder than ever, and to my surprise, nods her head- admitting that the lust, need, and passion I feel isn't one-sided after all."I want you," Selena whispers as if the nod wasn't reassuring enough."Tr
Kane povTwo months. Two months side by side with Selena and our sons. I can't believe that it's been so long since the day we cried in the hospital hall, as hopeful about our future as ever.Thankfully, some things did go as planned- the Council withdrew their curious gazes from our Kingdom, and my mother, well, there's no mother anymore. It hurt, but I made my choice, prioritised those who genuinely care for me, and got rid of the problem in its roots.Now, we can let out a breath of relief without any worries or fears about what our tomorrow might bring.Our boys are as healthy as they can be. Surely, Selena insisted that Kaven gets some professional help, and other than the resistance to open u
Selena pov "Daddy's here!" The boys scream out to me as if I weren't the one who left the room to ask Kane back. My cheeks are still tear-stained, especially after the emotional conversation. Explaining to two toddlers how life works shouldn't be as easy as it seemed a few minutes ago. I know that both of my, no- our, boys love me beyond measure when they still listen so eagerly to what I have to say. I told them the things I shouldn't have kept from them. It's unfair that these two wonderful boys spent most of their lives worrying that the day they would meet their father wouldn't come. Kaven and Knight deserve to know and love Kane as much as I do.&nb
Kane povI had to hold Selena for about an hour while Knight and Cody gave us much needed privacy. It wasn't more about us or our needs than it was about our little boy. We can't show weakness and fear if we want Knight to take this mess as lightly as possible."I... What's going to happen to our son, Kane? How are we supposed to live and smile when he has to deal with something like this? A- and it's all because of me. If only I hadn't made this decision, if only I hadn't acted like a complete moron. My God..." Tears stream down Selena's cheeks as I force my finger in front of her lips to stop the pointless rant.I get it; she's hurt and scared, but so am I. Still, I can't let her blame herself for every obstacle that comes our way; I just can't.&
Selena povKane doesn't get to mutter 'one' as the door flies open, startling me. The sudden noise doesn't faze him. Now I know the countdown was intentional and not just a joke on his part.I hear several footsteps entering the room, but one of them sounds like it doesn't fit here. I can't see who has joined us because Kane is sitting in front of me, shielding me from the gaze of the others.After all this time, though he has all rights to be pissed at me, Kane's still the same protective, loving man who chose me as his mate. I wouldn't change it for the whole world."Mommy!" A familiar voice shouts.Kane stands up, far too slowly for my liking
Cody povI pace back and forth in the hospital hallway, waiting for Kane's figure to appear right around the corner, that smug smile plastered on his lips- as per usual.However, no matter how many times I tell myself he's about to arrive, time drags by like a snail, and my patience is wearing thin."God damn it, Kane, what's taking you so long?" I hiss under my breath, checking my watch for the millionth time.If I don't see that smug asshole walk into this hospital within five minutes, I'm going after him.In the meantime, the doctors are performing surgery on Kaven- they're trying to fix the little guy's face. Apparently, those si
KaneWe reach the location and sit down near the massive door that separates us from the leftover Guardians.No matter how many of them are hidden there, I'll walk around each grave and place the explosives myself. And I won't leave until I'm sure none of those bastards are left.But for now, my men need rest before we get to work blowing this place into oblivion."King?" Someone appears beside me and hands me a bottle of water.I nod my head and gulp down the liquid. Although we didn't have to travel too far out of the Kingdom's territory, the journey was a bit tiring.My g
Selena povI can't move, as if some invisible force is holding me down and pushing me deeper into the abyss of darkness. I can't wrap my mind around the feeling. I can feel it when someone touches me, but I can't feel my body, and at the same time- I feel nothing but pain. How could this ever make any sense?I hear voices, some of them familiar, others less so.The last thing I remember is heading to the town for a job interview. Did it go successfully, or did I fail? No, that's not important.All that matters is where I am, who I am with, and where my boys are. God, sometimes I hate being human. There are those moments when I feel like I have no control over my life.
