After handing Topaz the cup, I got up and walked to the table where the food sat. It smelled delicious, and my stomach growled at the scent. She laughed again. "Go ahead, eat. I can get more if you're still hungry. I nodded, and without hesitation, I sat down and dug in. How long has it been here unconsciously?Many questions circled my mind, and as I scarfed down the food. The soup was hot and burned my mouth, but I didn't. Next, I moved on to the chicken and vegetable wraps and moaned. It was so good. "We eat a steady diet here," she explained. "We are careful in our calorie intake and exercise daily in human and wolf form. We want you and everyone else in your best possible shape. You will be stronger and increase your stamina. That will pay off when you're fighting. You'll get training too if you prove yourself worthy-""No, she doesn't need those training, Topaz," a familiar voice intervened, and when I turned my head to the person who was talking, my eyes widened when I saw R
Be strong. I reminded myself. Don't let him see how broken you are. You can do this. "Erix?" I said, trying our link once again since the woods. "Erix?" I repeated. "Please answer me," I begged him. "I need you."I was greeted with silence just like before, and my heart sank further in my chest. I didn't understand why Erix didn't understand and why he didn't answer me. Was he couldn't hear me or possibly something more? What if he was hurt? What if he was-No. No. I won't finish that sentence. Erix was still alive. I knew it. I could feel that in my veins. At least that hasn't disappeared yet. That was something I hoped for. The door to my room opened, and I tensed. I could feel the hairs on the back of my neck stand up. I knew Killian was there like an innocent victim. And I was in the grasp of a madman. Killian stepped inside, and his eyes raked over me. He didn't speak, just stared. I clenched my arms around my body tighter. "You look better," Killian finally said. No, thanks
The man screamed again in a pained bloodcurdling scream. It just kept getting louder and louder, and I knew I couldn't stand there watching the invinsible torture inside the man's body. I needed to leave, getaway, so I couldn't hear it anymore. "Take me away from here," I told Killian. "I can't stand it." Thankfully he didn't make me wait to see the man's death sentence carried and gently escorted me back to my cell. Surprisingly, I didn't hear the man's screams once I returned. Did that mean it was over? Did they finally kill him? I wished so badly for peace to the man and hoped he found it somehow. I can't believe what they are doing here. They were forcing loyalties. I remained standing when the cell door shut behind us, as did Killian. This time, he didn't come so close to me. He kept his distance, and for that, I was grateful. "If you plan to escape, Rain, you must think twice. You saw what happened to the man, so I suggest you be good and not bring your Luna attitude here
"I want the part of my missing soul back when I'm around you," Killian continued. "That day you showed up in the woods, it felt like a part of me was returning that I had been lost for a long time. I knew it was you before I could even see your face."I shook my head at him."I don't understand. Why tell me this part when nothing can be done to fix it?" I asked him, not feeling safe with him. Killian's emotions in his eyes are constantly changing. In a minute, he seemed longing, and then the next anger showed up followed by wickedness. Who was this wolf? Why didn't I see through him the real him? Killian's facial expression turns slightly cheered."But that's just it. Something can be done. There are two ways I can get my soul back." He stood up from the table, and as he spoke, with words that scared me to my core, he walked to me. "It's either kill you, and my missing soul will return to me, or I can mate you, and we'll be as one," he said, smirking. Before I could even think,
Time passed by, whether I was living my life or not. There was a whole world outside these cells, and I wasn't sure I would ever see or be a part of it again. Killian hadn't spoken to me since the day he told me everything, and that was three days ago. I figured he was giving me time to think about my options. But he clearly told me that I'd be the one who would want to be with him, and I didn't want it to happen. I'll die first. Mate or die it's basically what he told me. But the way I see it, it's either kill or be killed.I would never willingly mate him, so the only other option for him is to kill me. Unless I can somehow manage to kill him first, I doubt I can do it. It had been a total of four days since I had last seen Erix. I was slowly dying inside without him. Although I couldn't use our mating link to connect with him and I couldn't use my wolf, I could still feel him, but that would fade away soon as well. I wish I knew what he was feeling, what he was thinking, or if h
Tch. I heard Killian clicking his tongue. He doesn't want the woman in front of him. "Oh, why are you looking like that, Killian? I bought you your order. I came here to deliver this," she said before pushing the man before Killian. A man. A human man, to be precise. "You could have let one of your men deliver it to me," Killian replied. "Heh," she said, smirking. "I bought a valuable purchased item for Rijel too. I need to deliver it to him fresh, clean, and unscratched," she added. "Put him in the same place; you know what to do," Killian replied. "Of course," the woman said, eyeing me mockingly. This woman has a different aura compared to any female here. She has this alpha-like aura, almost the same as Rijel. I know some female alpha exist but are rare. This was the first time I met someone like her. She combines lethality and beauty, something you can't mess with. But why was she here? Was she a rogue or something? "Stop staring at my Mate, woman," Killian warned. The
"What about her? Why isn't she fighting?" I asked Killian, motioning my eyes to the little girl. He followed my gaze to her, disappointment crossing his features. "Some children adapt sooner than others. Sometimes we get the children too late; they can't be saved from their ways and rebel. If they are not with us, they're against us.""What happens to them?" My subconscious warned me not to ask, but I had to know the answer, however frightening it may be. Is it really better to be oblivious in these situations and never know the horrible truths?"They're put down," Killian answered immediately. "There is no other option. If they can't be tamed, we no longer have a use for them."Oh, Goddess. Nausea and dizziness hit me like a tidal wave, and I thought I might throw up. Unable to accept this part of reality, I put my hand in front of me and stepped back. "You can't be serious. You are killing innocent children. How monstrous you become, Killian. What happened to you? Why are you doi
Killian lifted his brow to me when I didn't make any movement to eat. I don't like the food. I'm hungry for something else aside from wanting information from him. "Is the food not to your liking? Should I give you some ice chips instead?" he asked me with a smile. "Oh that," I replied, feeling my mouth water from the mere words he said. Now that everything is calm between Killian and I, I felt the need to eat Ice chips. "Alright, I ask someone to bring you ice chips," he said before standing up and walking to the door talking to the guard. He went back to his seat and continued eating. "Does Erix know I'm here? Has anyone from The Blood pack talked to him?" I couldn't keep the words flowing out of my mouth. It had been days since I'd last seen or heard from him or any of my pack. I was growing anxious. By the looks on his face, I could see he wasn't pleased by my question. I didn't care. He didn't limit what I could ask and Erix was more pressing on my mind than anything els
“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
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
