"Yelan, this is my cousin, Lee," I said plainly.

She held out her hand to him. "Nice to meet you."

Lee kept his smirk in place while he accepted her hand and kissed it. "The pleasure's all mine."

When he backed away and released it, she giggled again. She was obviously smitten with him.

"Yelan and I are going out; wanna come along?" I asked him.

Lee seemed to be in deep thought before he answered.

"I'll go," he said

"Alright. You two wait for me here. I have somewhere to go," I added, glaring at Lee, warning him if he makes a move at Yelan, I'll kick his ass off.

Lee only smirked at me before I turned to go to Erix's office.

Eirx was sitting in his office with Wyatt when I arrived. They were submerged in more paperwork and business deals. I would feel bad if I interrupted them. But I wouldn't also like to see Erix angry if I leave without telling him. It would be disrespectful, and I know he wouldn't like it.

"Rain. What brings you here?" Erix asked me, smelling my scent, but

    Once everything was loaded up in the SUV, Yelan and I had Max swing us to the mall for an hour so we could go shopping. I'm not really a fan of shopping, and I will only grab those things I see first. I'm not like the other women who spent hours upon hours looking for their clothes. I would rather spend my time at any bookstore. I did light shopping, but Yelan filled the SUV with bags of clothing. Jude looked at Yelan, but she only smiled at her. Nearing the time that Erix gave me to go home, Lee had taken it upon himself to choose our dining location, which also happened to be where the few guys from my pack were eating. They were the ones who were traveling with Lee when he left them to meet me. Jude and Max were not happy about this and considered calling Erix to tell them about it, but after some serious begging and convincing, they let me tell him instead after we went home. They didn't like to keep things from Erix, and I understand that. "You look good, Rain. Erix's pack lo

    Erix's eyes stared at mine, still irritated. I sighed tiredly and ran my hand through my black hair. "Can we not dwell on that? Yes, I should have told you before I did it, but you can lecture me later. There are much bigger things to discuss right now. I've decided for us."Erix looked like he was about to come back with another retort until the last of my words caught him by surprise, and he closed his mouth. His serious expression morphed into one of curiosity."Continue."I took a deep breath. "I've decided to let you claim me.""You have?" he asked. "Yeah. I've decided I have to move on completely. And these dreams…I don't think I can handle them any longer. They're becoming too much for me, and they must be stopped. You were right; I do need you. We need each other. I'm sorry it's taken me so long to accept that completely."Erix's face held an interest in my words. "Why do you think that is?""I don't know," I shrugged. "I guess I just never liked to admit I needed help. I

    "Ruiz was friends with my parents, so he knows the anger I've held over this," Erix said. "Even though he was considerably younger than them, they were still close. He's been a great mentor to me. When I was lost and didn't know how to run a pack, he helped and showed me the ropes. He couldn't have been kinder. I owe him a lot for that.""How old is Alpha Ruiz?" I asked curiously. "Thirty-five. Ruiz is between mine and my parent's age.""And his mate? She's the same age as him?"Thirty-five was considerably older than me. I couldn't help but worry. I wouldn't have anything in common with them."Twenty- seven. Just a few older than you, but only a little. Ruiz met her four years ago. Just a year before my parents passed."I felt a little relieved at that. We'll have more in common, after all. Five years is pretty decent. However, she's had a lot more experience with Alpha Duties than I had. Maybe she'll give me pointers. Erix looked at the clock and then back to me. "Wyatt's waitin

    No one seemed nearly as nervous as me. I am about to meet the largest pack in Tempest. Everyone here must have been accustomed to this gathering, whereas I am not. Being new here made me feel out of place in this situation. "You'll be fine," Erina assured me. "You'll have to get used to us being presented as family sooner or later. You're my brother's mate, after all. It's customary."I didn't think I could feel any more nervous than I was, but her words only worsened it. They echoed in my mind.Family.Is that what we were? Erix and Erina are; I knew that, but not me. At least not yet. Being mates in the werewolf world was much like being married in the human world. It made you one, whether in the eye of Heaven or a pack of wolves. It would be just like that for us as well. I felt nauseous from all the pressure I was starting to feel. It couldn't have come at a worse time. If it weren't for Erix gripping my hand, I'm sure I would have given in to my urge to run back to his room an

    "I'm claiming Rain tonight," Erix announced. It was like a bomb that had dropped in front of us.Ruiz was taken aback momentarily before a pleased look appeared on his face. "That's great, Erix," Ruiz said. "It really is," Magdalene seconded. "It will help both of your wolves considerably.""We plan to mate in two weeks before the next full moon. Our wolves will be at their strongest then. It will make us stronger as well," Erix added. I blushed at how easy it was for him to talk with them about our mating. They were still strangers to me, even if they were his close friends. Magdalene giggled at that and caused Erix and me to look at her curiously. Soon, Ruiz chuckled as well. "What?" we both asked simultaneously. Trying to compose herself, she barely sobered enough to tell us, "I'm sorry, I shouldn't laugh. It's just that neither of you will possibly be able to wait that long to mate."Ruiz suddenly stood from the couch, held his arm out of Erix, and motioned him to join him.

    One thing is for sure, Magdalene had certainly given me a lot to consider. After everything she explained to me, consequences included, I don't know how to deny Erix. All he wanted to do was to have a second chance, like me. That wasn't asking for too much. It would be selfish of me not to give him that. I know it was scary, but this is for my wolf and me. The rejection made her unable to communicate with me, and the pain of the bond still lingers within us and affects her more than me. As much as I needed this, my wolf had to move on without someone who would never reject us. Maybe Magdelene is correct.Suddenly I felt something in my chest. I heard my heart beat unusually. Do I not love Erix? Was it all because of our souls intertwining? I don't know yet. If it's love, am I ready to love him? I'll try. "You're right," I agreed. "If it's one thing I've learned through this whole thing with Erix, it is anything possible. He saved me once, and now it's my turn to save him back."A w

    Erix had claimed me four hours ago, and I was still in pain. I cried for hours on end that night. It was almost unbearable. If it were not for Erix holding me in his arms all night, the pain would be incredibly worse. And I was thankful for him. My emotions were all over the place as well. I couldn't think straight. I had never felt more bipolar in my life, which was another reason for my tears. One minute I was fine, and the next, I was crying. The sheets on the bed were covered with blood, and so was the room with scent. It was good that I didn't have an aversion to blood, or I would have been sick. At times I found myself hating Erix for causing me to be in extreme amounts of pain and wanted to push him away. Though when I started to go through with it, I backed out and couldn't do it. I needed to, no, I wanted him next to me. His arms offered so much comfort. The claim started to forge a bond, and my wolf accepted it. She had yet to appear, though I could only hope that Erix sa

    A soft knock came on the door before I was able to push my body off the door. I sensed it was Erix right away. But really, who else would be knocking on our bathroom door?Woah, ours? Where did it come from? It's not yet ours, and it's his. I'm just a guest in his room. Erix is being hospitable by letting me stay here. That's all. "I'm sorry, baby, let me in?" he asked. "Please."I couldn't say no to that voice. It was calling out for me. Erix wanted me, and I wanted him too. I quickly moved from the door and threw it open before wrapping my arms around his neck. I buried myself into his neck and inhaled him once again. "I'm sorry. I didn't mean to snap at you. I'm just…""I know," he finished. "I understand. This is just one of those side effects of being claimed. Your body doesn't know how to handle all your newfound emotions. They are intertwined with mine, and it will confuse you a lot."I nodded but didn't speak. What Erix said certainly made sense. "Come on, I'll help you ba

    “Will you marry me?” The first words came from Erix’s mouth when I woke up. I was about to yawn and prepare myself for a whole day of Luna and Mother duty. I looked at Erix and then at the white and gold ring with a diamond and some bluish precious stones circling the largest diamond. “Uhm, Erix?” I asked him, confused. “We already became mates, a werewolf wedding, plus we already had four children. I think it’s too late for this,” I added. “It’s never been too late for us to get married, baby,” Erix said as he held my left hand. “It’s my dream to marry a woman I love like my Dad did to Mom.”I smiled at him. What he said warmed my heart, and who am I to say no to him? “Will you marry me, Luna?” He asked again. I nodded at him. “Yes, Erix. I’ll marry you,” I said. “So when are you going to marry me?” I added, teasing him after he slid the ring to my finger and kissed it.“As soon as possible,” he replied. “I want an extravagant wedding, something we can never forget. I think we

    I dipped my fingers inside his boxers and rubbed the pad of my thumb over the tip of him, ghosting my hand over the length of him.It's my turn to feel his body tremble from what I'm doing to him. It had been a while, and I knew Erix was excited, just like me. I have the power to do what I want to do because this male was mine, not by fate but by love. This mine, he's all mine. I watched Erix take a deep breath and groan out, closing his eyes. I start to pick up the pace as his hips begin to move back and forth into my fingers that have wrapped tightly around his length.His strong thighs trembled from my touch, and his eyes fluttered open, looking at me. Up and down using slow, strong strokes; I love watching this, watching him gasped quietly through slightly parted lips. I'm glad because I am the only one who can bring this side of him. I love this man so much that I will sacrifice for him. I moved faster, and my grip tightened on him, with a destination that I was going to brin

    "The kids had already slept?" Erix asked me as soon as I entered our room. "Yeah. The twins finally settled down," I said, sighing before I climbed on the bed. My original plan was to sleep early, but Erix had something in his mind as soon as he put the book he was reading and started kissing me."You have no idea how long I waited, Rain," Erix said in between little nips of my skin, not enough to cause real pain, just enough to entice a rush of endorphins to be released into my bloodstream, causing excessive pleasure to rage throughout my body. He's playing to my compulsions, riling them up for what's to come...he needed them in his corner.I squirm underneath him, his hands running along my body, over my clothes, feeling my body, his fingers firm...so demanding.He began to kiss my neck, his wet tongue flicking against my sensitive flesh. He's inciting a riot within me and knows what he's doing."Let me."His voice was toned in silk, caressing my compulsions with its softness.He

    With the blood infusion, Rain was saved. Diesel had hurt her so badly to the point he killed his son and endangered Rain's life. I wish I had finished him, but Zander had to do it to take what belonged to him. After Diesel's defeat, Zander took the position of Alpha and led the largest pack back to its former self before Diesel's family took it in. The doctor who did everything to save Rain was their actual Aunt. She poured all her knowledge into helping Rain and assisted Zander when he claimed the title of an Alpha.When Rain gained consciousness, her heart broke when she learned her baby didn't make it. Although the baby was not mine, I wasn't that heartless to wish him death. With Rain's fatal internal wounds, Luna Sonia said, it might take her chance to get pregnant again. Everything is back to normal now. Rijel and Diesel's death ended our suffering, and we live freely now."Mom! Come on, you got to see my friend," Clay said as he was pulling his mother's hand. "Yes, yes, Cla

  • The Howl of Rejection   Chapter 153: Chaos

    I growled so loud. It was the only way for the black wolf to distract what he was doing with my Rain. The wolf stopped from biting her. Rain collapsed on the ground, panting heavily. Pregnant she-wolves were prohibited from shifting since the baby might crash. But why on earth was Rain in her wolf form despite being pregnant? The answer lies in the bastard, who had a cocky smirk, even in his wolf form. Suddenly, ten wolves tried to tackle me on the ground. I was too careless; my whole attention was with Rain, and I forgot I was in a battleground. The wolves pinned me down, ensuring I could see what was happening with Rain. Rain looked at me, still panting. She was forced to stand up but failed miserably. There was another wolf behind her who was covered in blood, and I doubt if it's still breathing. Rain's wolf huffed, trying to crawl to me, but the Black wolf stepped on her back. Rain whispered as I growled at the black wolf, warning him not to dare. The black wolf looked at

    Erix's point of viewWhat Jordan told me was like a bomb exploding in my face. Rain is pregnant, not mine, but with someone else's baby! My wolf was in a rage; it wanted to rip this man's head before me, but I tried to calm him down. But what enraged me more was the man who had her was none other than Diesel Saavedra, Zander's best friend. "Starting from your parent's death to Rain's pregnancy, it was all planned," Jordan told me as he was driving. "The Blood Pack was just a distraction that Diesel had created and secretly pulled the string without anyone noticing it," he added. "Is there any particular reason why that bastard decided to ruin mine and Rain's life?" I said, trying to calm down. "For power," he said. "And for Rain. He has been wanting her since she was just a little girl; hence, he impregnated her because he wanted Rain to be his mate, and getting her pregnant through threat was just a bonus.""Threatening her?""Yes, like he'll kill you and your pack, which we know

    "Erix," I breathe, stepping through the front door. He clenched his jaw and looked at me. "Rain?" His voice was shaky. "Erix, I'm home," I smiled and ran to him. He pulled me into a tight hug. Tears form in my eyes. I'm relieved to finally go home. "I thought you were dead," Eris whispered in my hair. I fell silent for a while. "Rain, you have to leave," he croaked. I pulled away from him and furrowed my eyebrows."What? Why?" "There's someone else, Rain. You were gone so long that I couldn't help but fall in love with someone else," he said.A look of regret crossed his face. My lips parted, and I started to say something."What about Clay? Amira? Where are they?""They're fine. They have a new mom now. You left them, and it's all your fault," Erix growled. It's all my fault."B-but I can explain why I was gone," I begged him to just listen to me, but Erix didn't show any sympathy. "I don't need someone like you anymore. Hence, I should have let you die when you decided to kil

    "Who are you? Why are you trespassing on my territory?"A man in his late forties appeared behind a large tree. Five more wolves joined him and bore their canines to us. "P-please," Alice begged them. "We don't mean any harm. We only crossed this land because we were being chased. We're sorry for trespassing, sir."The white wolf who tackled Alice let her go and shifted into a man. He looked intently at Alice as if fighting something within him. "Where did you come from, and who was chasing you?" the older man asked. "We're from Greyhound Pack," Alice replied. Suddenly, a loud growl erupted from the man who shifted recently. "That bastard's pack!?" he growled. "Calm down, Jean. We need to know how they came here and stuff. Take them to the pack for interrogation," the older man said. He was probably the Alpha. Some of the wolves carried our bags and shifted into their human form as we walked to a path cleared of snow.We walked for about half an hour before a beautiful and mode

    "Rain, do you think you can walk?" Alice asked me out of nowhere. "Yes, I can. Why?" "I feel uneasy. Let's get out here. Something bad would happen when I feel like this," she added. "Come, let's go," she said, bringing out the bags full of baby's clothing and some of our clothes.Without questioning and believing her, I helped her pack. "It's snowing. The scent of snow blocks any scent of potential intruders. With Diesel's connection, I can' assure us we're still safe here. It's better than sorry."Alice shifted into her wolf form and told me to ride on her back. I did what she wanted, and as soon as I tapped her gently, saying I was good to go, she sprinted at her top speed without particular direction. Despite the thick snow slowing us down, we made it far until we heard a loud howl. It was so loud that it made me and Alice tremble. Alice and I reached a wide river that was partially covered with eyes. We could not go to the other side without crossing that river. Alice looked
