Gianna's POVDane had just given me a mild warning to tell him the truth when I was ready to. He was beginning to get curious which was normal because I always avoided conversations that had to do with my pack. I don't really know if I was ready to tell him the truth about my entire existence. It was too much work, to be honest and I don't want him to see me differently.Dane and I sat just there, soft covers draped around my body and him on the wooden chair beside my bed as we watched a horror movie.There was no awkwardness around us anymore, in fact, the silence felt peaceful and I even yearned for his arms to be around me to make me forget the horrible experience of tonight but I knew he was just respecting his boundaries.He said he would tell me everything, all the things he had been hiding from me these past few weeks but I didn't know what to say to him to make him start talking. My mind kept coming up with words to initiate the conversation but I didn't want to ruin the mom
Gianna's POVDane was unpredictable and I really hoped he took my words into consideration. At this point he was difficult to read and I couldn't tell if he accepted my opinions or he was still contemplating them.We stayed in silence for a while before I laid my head on his broad shoulders. His scent was intoxicating, making me nuzzle deeply into his warm embrace as he chuckled.His warm hands gently caressed my waist drawing circles on my skin. Being with Dane felt like home, like this was my permanent place; where I was destined to be.All the pain and anger I felt initially evaporated into thin air as my wolf whimpered in pleasure inside of me."Baby, you've got to rest now." He whispered slowly in my ears, making goosebumps appear on my skin. Instead of responding, I climbed on top of him, wrapping my legs tightly around his waist."Please don't leave me." I said through the mindlink and he chuckled as he lay me down on the bed removing my arms from his chest and making me groan
Dane's POVThe meeting with the elders council ended on a good note for the first time in forever, they all accepted my ideas without questions. After my meeting, I had a general pack meeting, though it was a bit hard to convince the pack members that everything was for their own advantage, it finally paid off because I was the Alpha afterall.On our way back to the pack house, I noticed Miles' demeanor. He was quiet for most of the meeting and barely contributed. I knew something was wrong but didn't know what it was."Are you okay Miles, you seem distant and withdrawn?" "Of course I am not okay Alpha." The words had barely left my mouth before he attacked. "I felt so stupid listening to you during the meetings and I couldn't help but wonder how you came up with such ideas in such a short period of time." He added. "Well, it's all my Luna's doing, she gave me the advice and from what I am seeing, it's already paying off. It's been just a few hours and we are making progress." I sa
Dane's POVI huffed angrily as I deleted Miles' apology message after giving him strict warnings to leave his messages with my guards.Pissed was an understatement to how I felt because I was trying to understand why he would feel that level of hatred towards her when she didn't even offend him in any way.Opening the door to my room slowly, in hopes of surprising my mate. A bright smile made its way to my lips when I saw her sprawled on the bed, hair scattered in all directions, her mouth slightly open as she snored peacefully. As much as I would want to kiss her badly right now, I didn't want to wake her up. She must have had a really stressful day working with Dayna."I love you." I mumbled as I pressed a kiss to her forehead. She smiled as I placed the covers over her and placed pillows underneath her head for comfort. She gently opened her eyes to look at me, and they focused on the gift bag on the vanity table."What's that?" I heard her voice in my head, pointing at the bag as
Dane's POVMy wolf taunted me, making me clench my jaw in frustration as I lifted my weight off her. I could hear her heartbeat which was irregular."Is something wrong?" She asked as she stood up fully, her legs wobbling, making me smirk."Nothing is wrong Gia, I don't know if you would want us to be intimate because I feel very stupid that I wasn't there to protect you from the rogues and...""Shhh..." She said as she pressed her index finger on my lips. "You've done more than enough since yesterday and for that i am grateful, everything that happened is all in the past and I am glad they didn't hurt me, tonight is about us, let's make it count."And with that, she crashed her lips on mine again. I allowed her to take the lead as I crouched to meet her height. She pushed my hands down to her waist and pulled herself closer to me.Lifting her up, I wrapped my legs around my waist as she held tightly on my shoulders, my dick po
Dane's POVIn all my years of being sexually active, I have never felt like this before. In simple words, I was obsessed. As I looked at Gianna laying there on the bed, her body completely exposed to me and my eyes still glued to her watching the up and down movement of her breathing, I knew there was something different about her.I always wanted more every time, more reason I was scared to fully accept what I felt because I couldn't pinpoint the exact reasons why the moon goddess would make me meet my fated mate barely minutes after my chosen mate rejected me.It was so hard to comprehend and I struggled with my feelings because the sparks between us were instant and I have never felt so intentional about anyone, like I wanted to please them so badly.It was not like this with Melissa. Everything between us was planned, from sex to dates to discussion. It was also hard communicating with her through the mate bond but with Gia it felt easy and I wanted to be spontaneous around her
Tristan's POVDear Alpha,I hope this letter finds you in good health and spirits. I am writing to you with a proposition that I believe will be of mutual benefit to both of us.As you know, we are both leaders of powerful and influential packs in this region. We have a long history of rivalry and competition, but also of respect and cooperation. We have both faced many challenges and threats, both from within and without, and we have both survived and thrived.However, I am certain you are also aware of the looming danger that threatens our existence. The rogues are encroaching on our territory, destroying our habitats, and hunting our kind.We cannot afford to be divided and isolated in this critical time. We need to unite and stand together against our common enemy. We need to form an alliance and pool our resources, share our information, and coordinate our actions. I propose that we meet in person in my pack, to discuss the details of this alliance. I have some ideas and suggest
Gianna's POVDane was acting weird and it was making me scared. He had totally zoned out for the past thirty minutes without saying anything.I was beginning to think I had offended him with my words, maybe I should have just pretended I was okay with having pups and not communicate my feelings but I knew he was going to find out one way or the other in the long run."Gianna there is a problem." He said as he sighed deeply."Problem? Did I do something wrong?" I asked, suddenly worried from the tone of his voice."No Gia, this has nothing to do with you. It is all my fault and I don't even know how to start explaining all of this without you hating me." "What do you mean Dane? You're making me scared." I said as I stared at him with curious eyes. He remained silent momentarily, maybe to gather his thoughts heightening my curiosity."I think I might be responsible for your present predicament." He said as he breathed out. "Years ago, after my mother's death and ascension as Alpha of
Gianna's POVI felt a mix of emotions; Guilt, anger, and confusion. I couldn't believe I allowed Eriella to get under my skin, and now I had inadvertently caused tension in the family.“Babe, I'm sorry”“I should be the one apologizing Gianna, I should have told you beforehand, but I didn't know how to”Dane's Godmother, Zachary and Tania were all staring at me with concern in their eyes.“Don't dare to apologize to us Luna, you did nothing wrong, you were only just trying to figure out the truth which is entirely normal, Eriella just has a way of manipulating situations to her advantage, she's been doing it
Gianna's POVTania brought dessert. It was creamy and adorned with cocoa powder and chocolate shavings.On a normal day, I was supposed to start digging in on how delicious it looked, but I suddenly lost my appetite, I wanted to know what Dane was hiding from me.“You don't have to worry Gianna, I assure you she's nobody important, just enjoy your dessert” Tania assured with a soft smile and I looked back at my mate for answers, only to see him clenching his jaw and tapping his foot repeatedly on the ground, making me frown.His attitude was making my curiosity grow. I am supposed to let things slide, but as a woman, my jealousy would not allow me. If my mate has had this intense history with any o
Gianna's POVShe pulled me into a warm hug the moment she got to me, engulfing my petite figure with her lavender scent flooding my nostrils immediately made me snuggle into her warm embrace.“You look lovely mom,” I commented while we pulled away after the long hug.“And you, my dear, you're so beautiful. I hope Dane hasn't been giving you too much trouble?” She said, shooting a look at Dane who rolled his eyes, clearly embarrassed and I chuckled.I loved the way he acted around his family, like he wouldn't want to get in their bad books. I initially thought they would be ill-mannered like he made me believe, but against his initial stance, they were actually sweet.“No mom, Dane is the sweetest husband in the entire universe”“I want to find my mate already, you both make love so sweet” Tania said, eyeing me w
Gianna's POVThe Blackwood family mansion was paradise.It was more exquisite than the way Dane described it, trust him to make everything seem so normal, but trust me this was far from normal.“You never told me we were taking a trip to paradise?” I gushed as my eyes twinkled in amusement as I admired the structure of the house, it had a unique blend of ancient and modern.“Well, if you think this is paradise, wait until you see mine” He mumbled while parking the car and undoing my belt.“Do you mean your house is bigger than this?”I asked as he retrieved the k
Gianna's POV“Do you think they'd like me?” I asked for the umpteenth time since we got into the car. I was nervous as hell, rejection was one of my biggest fears and I sincerely do not know how I would handle being rejected by my mate's family.Surprises were not really my thing and I expected Dane to understand this and at least give me a heads-up on issues, but as usual, he was a dominant and preferred doing things his own way.I was willing to understand him, it was so much work, but I was ready to give it a try.I didn't want things to go wrong, that'd be another disaster combined with the one I was going through right now.Aside from the fact that they were royalty, Dane made me understand that they were extreme perfectionists, so you can understand how much pressure was on me to impress them.Meanwhile, Dane was chuckling at my discom
Gianna POV“You know you're hurting my feelings by ignoring me, Mrs. Blackwood” His hands were going dangerously lower, teasing me and main my breath hitch in my throat.He gently made me turn to him, my mouth remained slightly open at the amount of pleasure coursing through my body and going straight to my core, making heat pull at my center.“I clearly apologized, I don't even know why you're pissed, you ignore me and have the nerves to look this sexy, look at those sweet melons begging me to suck them and your perfectly rounded ass, don't you know my wolf wants to claim you, and I'm dying to have my creamy rod buried inside of you?”He whispered as I breathed heavily, my core twitchi
Gianna's POVMy eyes widened in horror as I processed the news. “No…no…no, this can't be happening” I whispered, my voice trembling, I felt like I was going to be sick, the weight of my guilt was crushing me.“Dane, this is all my fault” I said, my voice cracking. “If only I had…if only I hadn't…”Dane's expression softened and he pulled me close. “ No babe, you can't blame yourself, whatever happened was on the pack members not you, you did nothing wrong, and for the people who died, they should have expected something like this to happen when they crossed the line” he said as he rolled his eyes.“Dane! What are you even saying, they were guests at my coronation, not minding whatsoever they did to me in the past, they have pups who are waiting for their arrival. How would they feel when they hear their parents have been killed?” I asked as I began to feel a pang of guilt.“You're a Luna now baby, and you've to learn to exercise your authority by removing sentiments in your dealings,
Chapter 148Gianna's POVMy head was banging, feeling the aftermath of crying non-stop, my eyes were itching badly, and it seemed like my head would split open any moment from now.Though Dane forced me to eat and take painkillers, the pain wouldn't just go away.Dane was the most generous man I've ever encountered, making sure I felt so warm in his arms and making sure the blanket kept me cozy. His arms and legs were wrapped around me making my movements immobile, not like I was complaining, I enjoyed every bit of it.Dane was an early riser and for once, he didn't prioritize pack duties over me, he made sure he informed his Gamma t
Gianna's POV“Do you mind telling me about this mate and tribrid thing?” He asked and I nodded.I was tired of keeping secrets from a man who has done nothing but love and support me, and the cat was finally out of the bag and there is no need to defend my lies anymore.“Uh, my father is a werewolf and my mother is a hybrid, that's where I got my powers from. Along the line, I was forcefully mated to a vampire in exchange for war. The vampires actually trespassed on our land, they were stronger and more battle inclined, they were killing everyone and at that moment my eyes locked with the leader of the vampire warriors which was a wrong move because he immediately announced to everyone that he would have me in exchange for the war”.
