*Sienna*I wake up relaxed, and Mei smiles at me from the other side of the room. She looks like her old self, carefree. "Good morning sunshine!" she says with a giggle and leaves the blanket she was folding to the side.I wiggle myself up slightly and manage to sit on the bed as she pulls a tray with her and the door opens to let the nurse walk in. "Good morning, Luna."I nod to her with a smile and she sits next to me with the bandages and the tray that Mei brings, where the medication is. She carefully pulls the bandage from my both hands, throws them towards the bin, and soaks the new ones with the medication, which she then wraps carefully back around my hands.She then proceeds to do the same with the ones on my neck; I tilt my head up so she can access it with ease. The whole process takes about two or three minutes, and then the nurse smiles, stands up, and walks away.Mei helps me get up as I am dying for some breakfast, and as I sit on the chair and feast my eyes on the deli
*Sienna*Mei is carefully changing my bandages; removing the old ones and soaking the new ones in the medication Lady Horatia gave her. It is a slow process, but she handles it so perfectly."Where did you learn to do this?" I ask her in a whisper; my voice hurts less when I talk like this.She grins and covers the last part of my neck. "I am Chinese, and it is part of our ancestor's culture for the women to learn all we can about medicine and healing. Our werewolf history is legendary, and the wives had to always look after the injuries of the husbands."I smile at her and let her finish before she turns and puts everything in place. Having these bandages is uncomfortable, but I feel better with them each day; my skin feels fresh and the burning sensation is gone.Once she is ready, we both walk to the backyard and find Xavier standing, his back leaning against the wall. His eyes follow Ro and the twins running a perimeter check in their wolf forms.I smile wide, it has been ages sin
*Roharu*After I get my shower, I finally feel like everything is well. I have my mate, my friends, and we are on the track of the people that murdered my father. I am excited.Watching Sienna slowly get better has been an ordeal; I felt powerless and selfish for not transforming her to help her heal faster. But she understands my point of view and the reason why I am afraid to do this.My Enna. It's not hard to fall for someone smart and cunning.-'Alpha, your friends went out for another stroll. Are you going to wait for them for dinner?'- I hear Xavier send to me and I chuckle.-'They just want to make sure they have all angles checked. But no, I will go get Sienna, if she wants to wait then we will. If she is hungry, we eat,'- I reply to him and he mentally nods.-'Yes, Alpha,'- I can't help but smile at his seriousness.I find Sienna exploring the library with some books already in hand; she always told me this was her favorite room of the manor. I reach to her and caress her che
*Sienna*I wake up feeling quite happy; a nice relaxing night of sleep and pleasant dreams. I look at the window and wonder what everyone is doing. I still don't want to get up, but I force myself to do so as I hear some noises outside. I walk to the window and catch the twins sparring.Kall is in his wolf form and he is fighting with Xavier, who is in his human form. I can see it is only for training, but I don't see Cael anywhere.I take a shower and soon enough, I hear a knock on my door and Mei peeks in. "Good morning Princess!" She grins and dances her way in.I smile at her. "Good morning Mei, why the new nickname?"She shrugs. "I thought it suited you, but I can go back to calling you Luna if you want!"I laugh and shake my head slightly. "Ehm, how about just Sienna? Princess sounds so pretentious," I say to her as I feel embarrassed.She stops for a moment and gives me a soft smile. "Sienna, you need to learn your place. You are not a normal human, and you are not just another
*Roharu*"Are you sure you want everyone going there? Won't you prefer us, your wives, to go first?" Deidre asks."I gave my orders, and I want everyone to follow them. Xavier will fly over tomorrow and will start organizing how I want things to be done. I need the entire pack here, and that includes you and Solange," I tell her, trying not to sound annoyed."Of course, my beloved Alpha. Your wives will be there for you," she says and I relax a little, feeling better that she is not putting too many objections."I will welcome you both myself next week. Bye for now, and be safe," I say before cutting the call.Their presence was always pleasant for me before; they are special and with very unique personalities, but they never once disrespected me or rejected any order of mine. But now that I have Sienna, the idea of having them near me, and with what Mei Li said about them, I start to worry."I hope you are not too busy," Sienna knocks on my door and walks in.I smile and open my arms
*Sienna*Yesterday was a day full of emotions; for a moment, I thought I would break with Ro because of his reaction to what I said about Xavier and Mei, but watching him so vulnerable was almost heartbreaking. I felt happy when he confessed his conflicting thoughts because it means he really trusts me and is open with me.This also makes me feel better because, no matter how hard, I need to know I can tell him everything. He said he will act like nothing happened in front of them, and he will pay more attention as well. This only came about after I reminded him that I was only suspicious about it, but I was not sure.Everything after that was another type of wave of emotions. He took me to his room and carefully laid me on his bed, where he laid next to me and we cuddled. He asked me if he could see my neck, and I remembered what Mei had said in regards to mates and the intimacy that created that contact.I allowed him to remove my bandages, and he did so very carefully. I felt my he
*Roharu*I sit down and go through the last papers on my desk that will finalize the preparations for our final merger. I am happy to see everything working out smoothly. My father's properties cover a large amount of land that was left without care for a long time, and I had to fight to get them back after so many legal issues. I am glad I was back in time before the government took all of it.Xavier walks in, bringing me a few letters and I inspect them, some bills, and some brochures that I quickly discard. He sits in the opposite chair and goes through the papers I just signed, splitting them into piles based on importance. I look at him as I think about what Sienna told me; he looks normal to me, like nothing worries him. Soon enough, Sienna knocks on the door and walks in. I lift my eyes to meet hers and smile. She greets us both. "Good morning, gentlemen," she says as she nods at Xavier and walks to me.I quickly stand up to wrap my arms around her, kissing her lips tenderly.
*Sienna*I feel so torn and conflicted; the way Ro is pushing them both to declare their feelings and their bond, and putting them in such a position, just makes me want to cry. I am in tears as I try to run to Mei to hold her, but Ro's grip tightens around me.Why is he being so cruel? How could he put Xavier on the spot? I can also feel his anger beneath his skin; I fear the worst as I can sense his conflicting emotions and I sink my fingers into his arm, trying to bring his attention to me.But his eyes are locked on Xavier, and he looks at Mei as well. I feel more tears fall down and I think of ways to comfort Mei when this is all over.Of course, Xavier would never betray Ro; his loyalty to him is so strong, he abandoned all hope for his own happiness. And Mei never pursued anything with Xavier; she is tied to Ro, and she is loyal to him. This whole situation is so messed up, I start regretting ever telling Ro about it.When he finally confesses his feelings, I shiver. Ro's arms
*Sienna*"Oh Sienna, I already miss you, when are we going to see each other again?" Diane speaks through the phone and I chuckle, already knowing who she really misses."I will let you know when I am done with all these tests they ask me to run. I don't know why they ask so many," I lie."I am sorry, really sorry. I know you have your own health issues and here I am trying to go out to a party with you… I will stop now.""Don't worry, it helps as a distraction," we both laugh and continue talking for some more until she finally finishes telling me how my students made a billboard where they signed their names and put mine in my honor.After we hang up, I shake my head at how foreign that life seems to me now; I used to be a teacher, and I had a peaceful life. Now my life is filled with chaos and uncertainty, powers and abilities, and everything next to my teenage crush. I would never give that up.I walk out of Ro's study and I am face to face with Mei who smiles and takes my hand. "
*Sienna*I yawn and smile as I feel myself waking up in the arms of Ro, remembering our late-night love scene. My body still tingles and my skin fills with goosebumps instantly as he kisses my shoulder."Hmmm… when did you end up spooning me?" I ask as I feel his arms wrapped around me from behind."I think after you passed out, which was maybe after your third orgasm," he says and I blush deeply.His teeth grasp the skin of my shoulder and my body feels on fire again. "Ro…" I whisper and I feel him grin."I want more nights like this, in fact, every night should be like this, and every morning, always and forever." I laugh and he pulls the sheets to cover me as he looks towards the door. "You may come in, Emile."My hands grip tight around the sheet and I pull it up to my chin, while Ro sits on the bed and Em walks in.His eyes widen as he sees us, as he sees me, and I can see him forcing himself to look at Ro and avoid me. "My Alpha wants to have a word with you both, when you have
*Roharu*"I want a constant rotation of soldiers to be on guard, and keep them even-numbered. No less than three of them together at all times," I give my order, and Xavier nods and leaves."I left for only a few hours and this happened? I am not sure I should leave anymore Roharu, not even to get books and materials for myself," Conwenna says as she enters my office."Indeed, you left and hell broke loose. How is it possible you didn't know that there were hunters still being trained and used? Wasn't that forbidden?""Are you sure they are hunters? I can't believe it, I am still surprised by what I heard… they should not exist Roharu." She looks bothered and confused. "And I know you don't trust anyone, even me, but I am just incredibly surprised by how far Gregory has gone…"I nod and hit the desk with a fist. "I know, hunters are a special breed, from birth trained and groomed… this means Gregory has been preparing for something for a long time now.""Did you call the other Alphas?
*Sienna*I scream and feel everything that has been poisoning me come out from my body, and just as I do this, I extend an arm and stop Crimson Mist from moving more towards them."You don't owe your life to me, so just stay back," I manage to say, my heart pounding fast and tears rolling down my face."How is this possible?!" the hunter growls and they all seem to focus on me.As I turn my head to look at them, I finally count them and see they are 13. Ro is ready to tear them apart, and now that I am free, so am I. "Last warning… leave our home, leave our lands… and tell Gregory to man up and come fight his own fights… if he dares…"There is definitely boldness in my words, but I don't care anymore, I am too anxious and full of energy that my body screams to release."We are hunters, we don't back down," the hunter growls again."Then you will die…" Cassie says and she shifts quickly."Em, keep him safe…" I say as I look both at him and Crimson Mist, who is still baffled and confuse
*Sienna*I am nervous and can't avoid the anxiety forming inside of me; whoever that Alpha is now, I need to remember that he knew my mother and worked with her, he knew her personally and probably knew my father.My hands are sweating as I pace back and forth, trying to calm myself down while we wait. I stare towards the entrance and feel my heart beating faster as I feel Em approaching, and with him, there is that strong presence that was with him before."I will be right there next to you, so nothing bad will happen. But the moment he begins to disrespect you or our people, I will have his head served."I shake my head and chuckle. "Ro, you are too cute." I lean up and kiss his lips softly before I let him go and head towards the entrance door.When I open the doors and step outside, my nose itches, and I rub it quickly. There is a weird scent around us, or perhaps I am imagining things. I should be, since no one else notices.I see Cael and Kall are already there in their wolf for
*Roharu*The humans are funny and entertaining to watch; they get along well, and they seem to find happiness in the simplest things. I admire them in a way, their life is so easy and carefree. Watching Sienna relax and talk to her friends and students is also something I am finding pleasing; she feels safe, she is happy."Tonight will be a very tense situation, do you think I should have made more tea?" Conwenna stands next to me and just calmly throws me a topic I was avoiding really hard."Yes, you should have. So much for being a Shaman, don't you think?" I throw back at her causing her to frown and bite her tongue. I take a deep breath, reminding myself she chose to be on our side. "I don't think anything going on right now will be easy to predict or anticipate. Not much of anything makes sense."She nods quietly and watches Sienna just like I am. "Your father would be proud of you, Roharu," she says and this time takes me by surprise. "You are a force to be reckoned with, and yo
*Sienna*I pull some untamed strains of hair behind my ear and I walk through the corridors and halls of the house trying to distract myself; I take a look at each room and make mental notes of doing either updates or changes."Any particular ideas you might have for this room??" Ro interrupts me as I spend too much time inside one of the rooms.As I chuckle, I shake my head and sigh. "I was just remembering our nights watching movies, and I thought it would be nice to turn a room into a home theater. Perhaps when this is all over, we can pick up those old habits."There is a wide smile on his face, one that makes my skin fill with goosebumps, and soon enough he nods and wraps his arms around me. "Done, I will get people to work on the room starting tomorrow.""Oh, I didn't mean it so soon.""No words needed, it is done. I already sent Xavier an order. Now, let's head outside, the guards are letting me know that your guests are on their way."A large bus arrives and I feel excited as
*Sienna*My arms stretch as I slowly start to wake up; my body is still sore from the intense session Ro put me through last night. A smile draws on my lips and my body is immediately aroused with just the memories of his bites and his lovemaking.With my eyes still closed, I slide a hand to where he sank his teeth first and feel the skin almost healed. A light pain goes through my brain again and although it catches me by surprise, I begin to tame it. -'My Enna is awake, I must come to give her a good morning kiss.'-I giggle and not long after I feel his presence as he walks through the doors. My eyes finally open to meet his, and I can't believe how sexy he looks with his half-open shirt. "Good morning," I manage to say and he comes straight to me."Good morning, indeed," he says with another Ro-classic grin. I laugh as he jumps to bed and towers me, leaving me breathless. "I just felt you waking up and couldn't help but come to do my duty."Chuckling, I look at his hungry eyes. "Y
*Roharu*Sh*t. Of all the times this could happen, it had to be now?I see a mix of anger and disappointment on Sienna's face as she glares at me. I can't come with a proper response in time and she walks past me and heads outside. I watch her go and I am still surprised, trying to process what to do next.As I see her reach the door I rush to catch up with her and it is a very uncomfortable situation; she is pretending that all is ok, and I am beginning to get worried.Casper walks towards us together with his Beta. He shakes my hand, smiling at us both. "I congratulate and bless your union, thank you for inviting us again, but I must leave. My old father has a new boyfriend he wants me to meet.""I am glad you made time to be with us," Sienna leans to kiss his cheek. "Be well and I hope you spend a good time with your father and his…""Oh, I am surprised you don't feel despised by this."Sienna shakes her head chuckling. "Far from it. I am not aware of the circumstances of it all, b
