Alpha Edward’s POVMy breath hitched, and for a moment, I couldn’t breathe as I stared into the most alluringly beautiful set of sea-blue eyes that had tormented my mind and dreams for the past five years. Staring at her, I could easily call her perfection. It seems the past five years have drastically changed her. The last time I saw her, those sea-blue eyes of hers looked weak and lifeless, but the one staring right at me was so full of life. Her face, which I would call perfection, was glowing, and without being told, I knew she had lived her best life for the past five years, while the past five years have been hell for me. My eyes fell on her full lips, and I couldn’t help but stare, wishing I could pull her into my arms and kiss her while confessing to her, telling her how much I missed her.My heart pounded in my chest as I tried to gather my composure, but it was a losing battle. She was right there, the woman who had haunted my every waking moment and every dream, standing b
Amanda's POV “Mother, I look so much like him,” Liam muttered as I led him away. “No, you don't, Liam. You are just seeing things wrongly,” I corrected him immediately, even though I knew he was right. This had been my initial fear about coming here. I was worried about Alpha Edward meeting Liam because Liam was his exact look-alike. I knew Alpha Edward would notice the resemblance, and it was beginning to trouble me. “Mother, look properly. I look so much like him, Mom, his eyes, his…" Liam argued more. “No, you don't.” I shunned him, and he frowned before looking away. Luckily, we met Beta Matthew, who took him from me and offered to show Liam around the mansion. After Liam went with Beta Matthew, I made my way to Sophia's room and found her still arranging her things. “Hi,” she greeted me, and I smiled before sitting on the bed. “Are you comfortable here?” I was concerned about her. The war had made her leave many things behind. “I think that question is supposed to
Amanda's POVMy head was telling me to push him away, to stop this madness, but my heart and body were saying otherwise. Moaning softly, I pulled him closer and deepened the kiss, wanting more of him. It had been five whole years, and I missed his touch so much; it felt like a sleeping giant in me had awakened.Moaning between the kisses, he pulled me towards a direction, and my back hit a tree. He groaned into the kiss, kissing me like a starved beast, while I tried to match the pace of his kiss. Damn, I was losing my senses.I felt his hands lift my nightgown, and his fingers brushed against my sensitive skin, sending cold shivers down my spine. His other hand folded around my breast, still under the nightdress.I moaned and kissed him deeply, wanting more of him. His fingers shifted my underwear aside, brushing against my entrance, causing me to moan as I parted my legs for him. He rubbed the entrance of my pussy with his fingers before inserting two fingers in, which made me gasp.
Alpha Edward's POV I was surprised to see Amanda walking into my study. Initially, I thought it was one of my guards or maids. Seeing that it was Amanda, I dropped the file on the desk and raised a brow as I watched her walk up to me and stand before me, the desk separating us. Staring at her, the memories of last night in the garden flooded my thoughts. I could still hear her moans in my head, feel the tightness of her pussy wrapped around my fingers, and remember the hot, intense kiss we shared. Just the mere thought of it was already making my dick throb, and I had to compose myself. “Alpha Edward, we need to talk,” she demanded, and I gestured to the seat in front of her. “Have a seat,” I said, already knowing why she was here. She reluctantly took the seat and faced me. “What happened in the garden should never have happened,” she muttered, getting straight to the point. “I'm your beta's mate, and it's taboo to even touch me,” she spat. “What we did was an abomination and
Alpha Edward's POVI could see the terrified look on Amanda's face as she quickly arranged herself and got up from the table. She looked so worried, and the sight bothered me. “Calm down,” I said to her, but she eyed me and glanced at the door.“Who is there?” I questioned.“Alpha, it's I.” I recognized the voice as one of my men. “Yes, what is it?”“Alpha, it’s time for your private meeting with Alpha Linus.” “Prepare the car. I will be out shortly.”“Roger that, Alpha,” he said and left.Turning around, I met with a furious-looking Amanda, and before I could say a word, a slap landed on my cheek. It was shocking, but somehow, I wasn’t angry; I just felt numb.“How dare you?” she spat with anger while I raised a brow at her. “You…” Her voice broke with rage, and I saw her inhale deeply, close her eyes, open them and then glare at me. “Stay away from me, Alpha Edward. If you come anywhere close, I will tell this to Matthew.” She threatened, and I raised a brow at her. “Is that to sca
Alpha Edward's POVFor the past three days, Amanda has been making sure to avoid me. She ensured our paths didn’t cross. Despite my busy schedule, I made sure to eat at the table to see her, but she never showed up. Only Sophie and Liam appeared at the table.My thoughts drifted to the last time I saw her, when we made out right here in my office. I could recall how she moaned for my touch, making me wonder if she was also feeling what I felt.A knock on my door interrupted my thoughts, and I asked the person to come in. Walking in was one of the spies I had sent to investigate Matthew.“Any news?” I asked, eager to know what Matthew had been up to.“Greetings, Alpha.” He bowed his head, and I gestured for him to speak.“Sire, according to my findings, I am 100% sure that Beta Matthew is having an affair with a woman named Lina.”“Her name is Lina?” I raised a brow, and he nodded. “Yes, sire. Inside here is all the information you will need.” He stepped forward and handed me a brown e
Alpha Edward's POV The look in Matthew's eyes tells me he has found out about the spies I placed on him, and I wasn’t surprised. Matthew was smart, so I was sure he would find out soon enough. “Alpha Edward, I demand an answer from you,” Matthew urged, his temper threatening to flare up. “Not here. Let’s talk in my study,” I said and made my way out of the game room while he followed me. Once in my study, I walked over to the bar, took out a bottle of wine, and poured it into a glass before taking a sip. “Why?” I threw the question at Matthew as I sat on my desk. His gaze furrowed, and he took a step closer to me. “I should be the one asking you why. Why did you send spies on me?” he sounded angry, which annoyed me even more. He was the one at fault, yet he was acting this way. “Why are you cheating on Amanda, Matthew?” I asked in a low tone, trying my best to control the bubbling emotions inside me. “It's none of your business,” he snapped at me with no sign of remorse, and t
Amanda's POV“You are lying to me, Amanda,” he grunted, seemingly annoyed by my words.“Lying to you?” I asked with uneasiness. Does it mean he has noticed that Matthew doesn’t sleep in the mansion, let alone share the same room with me?“Yes, let me in first,” he demanded.I wanted to deny him entry, but the look on his face showed that he wouldn’t be taking no for an answer. Left with no other choice, I stepped away and watched him enter the room. I closed the door and leaned against it. He turned, and we held each other's gaze for a moment before he looked away, then back at me.“Why didn’t you tell me?” His question got me confused, and I furrowed my brow. “Tell you what?” I asked, puzzled.“That you and Matthew aren’t together; you guys are just co-parenting,” he grunted, and I swallowed hard. How did he come up with such a conclusion?“I know that he doesn’t want you as his mate; you don’t have to hide it,” he added, and I swallowed nervously. At least he is still unaware that I
“Are you nervous?” Liam, who was standing beside his father, asked as he noticed how anxious he seemed. Alpha Edward let out a soft chuckle and nodded. “A little nervous, yeah,” he admitted, and Liam gave his hand a gentle squeeze. “You shouldn’t be. Mommy is on her way.” Liam offered his father a comforting smile, and suddenly the music began playing, prompting everyone to stand. Looking ahead, Alpha Edward's breath hitched as he saw the most beautiful woman he had ever seen, dressed in a white wedding gown, being led toward him by her father. “Mine!” His wolf howled possessively and happily, causing tears to glisten in Alpha Edward's eyes. “You are so beautiful,” Alpha Edward whispered to Amanda through the mind link. She responded with a smile. “You look handsome and hot,” she whispered back, their gazes locked. They continued holding each other's gaze until Amanda was handed over to him by her father, her eyes filled with tears. It was a great joy to be marrying the m
Alpha Edward was about to leave his room for lunch when he heard a knock on the door. Before he could ask who it was, the door swung open, and Levi, his cousin, stepped inside. “What do you want? Haven’t you done enough?” Alpha Edward yelled, his anger surging at the sight of Levi. The mere presence of the man who had caused him so much grief made his blood boil. “Brother,” Levi called softly, his voice calm and unwavering despite the anger in Alpha Edward’s eyes. He knew his cousin was enraged, but he also knew Edward would never truly harm him; if he had wanted to, he would have done so long ago. “My things are downstairs. The driver is waiting for me, but I wanted to see you and apologize before I leave,” Levi pleaded, taking a tentative step closer to Alpha Edward. “I don’t need your apology, Levi. Just leave and never show your face to me again!” Alpha Edward grunted, turning away, his shoulders tense with unresolved anger. Suddenly, the door to the room opened again, an
Amanda’s POV “I’m so happy that you’re here. We didn’t have time to talk,” I said happily to my mother, who smiled and patted my shoulder. “I’m here now. Tell me what you want to know, my dear. I’ll be with you for the whole week,” she said, and my smile widened. It was a relief to have her here with me—very thoughtful of Alpha Edward to send for her. “I heard the case has been withdrawn, but don’t worry, I’ll deal with Killian in my own way,” my mother said, and I frowned. What could she possibly do to him? “Mother, what do you intend to do?” I asked curiously. She was silent for a moment before she smiled and tucked a strand of hair behind my ear. “Do you know about my abilities? Did Matthew tell you yet?” she asked, and I shook my head. I always knew there was something special about my mother—there was a fear in both Killian and Father’s eyes when she tried to attack Killian. “No, he hasn't told me,” I admitted, my curiosity piqued. “Maybe I should show you,” she sai
“I can’t wait anymore,” Amanda moaned between kisses before pulling away. Her hands trembled with desperation as she reached for his shirt, her fingers curling around his neck as she straddled his lap, her body flush against his. Edward’s hands gripped her hips instinctively, his touch firm and commanding, sending a rush of liquid heat pooling between her thighs.Without breaking eye contact, Amanda began undoing the buttons of his shirt with shaky fingers. Edward’s gaze never left hers, darkened with lust, his breath heavy and irregular as she bared his chest to her hungry eyes. His skin was hot beneath her touch, the hard muscles of his torso rippling with every breath he took.Her lips parted as she traced the contours of his chest, her fingers skimming down to his waistband, where she could feel the hard length of him straining against his pants. The desire to feel him, to have him inside her, was overwhelming, and she couldn’t stop the small, needy moan that escaped her lips.Edw
Amanda's POV It’s been two days since I came back from the hospital, and things have been just normal except for the constant urging of my wolf, wanting me to go have a talk with Alpha Edward. But I was stubborn; if anyone has to initiate a conversation, it has to be him, not me. A knock landed on my door, and when I asked the person in, I realized it was Liam holding a bouquet of flowers. “Momma, Dad said I should give you these,” Liam said, handing the bouquet of flowers to me, which I took with curiosity. “See you later.” Liam smiled widely at me before leaving. With a furrowed brow, I stared at the flowers before taking the note inside and reading it. “I saw these and thought of you.” A lump formed in my throat as I didn’t know how to react to the gesture. “Well, he is being romantic,” my wolf mumbled in my mind, but I rolled my eyes and inhaled the fascinating scent of the roses before dropping them on my bed. My thoughts went to Alpha Edward and why he had been avoiding
Alpha Edward's POV The sound of the car driving into the garage announced Amanda's arrival. I could feel the tension in my chest as I waited, knowing she would walk through those doors any moment now. After everything that had happened, this was my chance to show her how much she meant to me, even if I couldn’t fully express it in words. I had instructed the maids to decorate the mansion and Amanda's room in a way that would convey my feelings—something subtle yet meaningful. The foyer was adorned with fresh white roses, Amanda’s favorite, arranged in elegant vases that lined the entrance. The scent of the roses filled the air, creating a calming atmosphere. Soft candlelight flickered from various corners, casting a warm glow across the room. The maids had outdone themselves, hanging delicate white drapes from the ceiling that flowed down like a cascade of silk, giving the space an ethereal feel. As I heard the front door open, I stiffened. Her footsteps were soft but deliberate as
Amanda’s POVMy eyes widened at the scene before me. I couldn’t believe Matthew had just murdered Elisa's mother right in front of me. She was lying lifeless on the floor, blood gushing out of her head.Matthew looked my way, concern etched on his face. “Are you okay, sis?” he asked, and all I could do was stare at the lifeless body of Elisa's mom. Then, suddenly, a calm voice resounded in my mind.“Hello, Amanda, I’m your wolf.” The voice, which sounded like me, spoke, and my eyes widened. “My… wolf…”I stammered in shock. “Yes, Amanda, I have been here all this while. I was just subdued, but now I’m released. It's nice to finally talk to you,” she said, her voice so soothing.A tear fell down my cheek as I couldn’t believe it—I couldn’t believe I had my wolf.“Amanda, you’re crying?” Matthew said, noticing my tears. With tear-filled eyes, I looked up at Matthew, not knowing how to gather my words. “My… wolf. My wolf is released,” I announced to Matthew, who smiled and hugged me.“Ye
Alpha Edward's POV“What are you even saying, Edward?” Matthew frowned, clearly not agreeing with my idea.“You heard the doctor; she has just a few minutes left. We have to do something,” I murmured, fear and concern gripping me.“And you think giving up your life is the best solution? You think I’ll just stand by and watch you do that?” he spat with pain and anger. “Amanda is my sister, but you are my friend, my brother, and my Alpha, and I will not let you do this, never!” Matthew said in a tone of finality, his voice breaking with emotion.A tear dropped down my cheek at the complication of the situation. Amanda’s life was in danger, and we had little time to save her.“We have to return to the mansion,” Matthew said, causing me to raise a brow at him. “A guard just informed me through telepathy that the witch, Elisa’s mom, is screaming at the top of her voice that she can save Amanda,” Matthew revealed, causing my eyes to widen.“Alpha, we have to go back. Let’s go see her,” Matt
Alpha Edward’s POVA sudden pain struck my chest, causing me to exclaim, which caught Aunt’s attention. “Are you okay?” she asked worriedly as she moved closer to me, but I couldn’t respond. Instead, I closed my eyes as the pain continued to linger. “Should we send for a healer?” Aunt asked again, but I still didn’t respond. With my eyes closed, I thought of Amanda, and an uncomfortable, strange feeling hit me. “Edward, are you okay?” Aunt kept asking, but I didn’t respond until I heard heavy footsteps approaching the sitting room. When I opened my eyes, I saw some guards, looking worried. “Alpha, an accident has happened,” a guard announced, and my eyes widened. “Amanda!” My breath hitched in my chest. “The car got into an accident, Alpha. It’s serious, but they’ve been rushed to the hospital,” the guard added, and fear gripped me even more. “No, no, take me to the hospital,” I ordered, fear and panic consuming my entire being. The guards wheeled me out of the sitting room and
