Nikolai’s POVThe night was going smoothly and having Lilliana in my arms felt like having heaven within my reach and when she hugged me.Goodness, when she hugged me, it felt as though time had stopped and it felt so good. I was so afraid of moving that I couldn’t even breathe.She felt so warm and her body felt really soft pushed up against me, I wanted to keep holding her without ever letting her go.My heart pounded and I could hear the gushing sound of my own blood as it rushed through my veins, spreading to every part of my being.Closing my eyes, I took in a whiff of her delicious scent and I wanted nothing to take away this moment.The urge to keep her close to me was insane, I didn’t want to let go of her, I wanted to maintain that proximity, to keep loving her and overall, to protect her. I felt her muscles tensed and I could feel that something was wrong as she pulled away from me.“What’s wrong? Are you okay?” I asked but she looked so lost that she probably didn’t hear w
Lilliana’s POVWalking as fast as my legs could carry me, I could feel my heart racing and I knew really well that it was because of Jenna.She was the last person I was expecting to see and I can’t just stand being in the same space as her.I felt bad for judging too soon too because a part of me felt like Nikolai didn’t really know that she was going to show up to the dinner.The sound of my phone ringing jolted me out of my thoughts but I continued walking since I already knew who was calling. It was Nikolai and he had called multiple times already but I’d decided to ignore the calls.I wasn’t mad at him or anything because I knew there was an explanation for everything and in Nikolai’s case, he didn’t know she was coming but I also can’t bring myself to go back there until I’m calm.Finding a place to sit, I took a deep breath and looked up at the sky. I didn’t want to wander too far off because Nikolai might try looking for me.The fact that everything looks familiar calmed me do
Lilliana’s POVI was still stuck behind the big oak tree with Kieran, the night was silent, peaceful but there was nothing peaceful with being either Kieran.I’d just seen him walk into the dinner hall clinging onto Jenna and I know I shouldn’t care but I couldn’t help the multiple questions that kept running through my mind.Are they dating now or their date was supposed to end as soon as the dinner was over?Sighing, I pinched the bridge of my nose and couldn’t believe that I was stuck with Kieran of all people, my heart raced and I felt uncomfortable.“What were you doing in the bush all alone?” His voice jolted me out of my thoughts and I shuddered, “you could’ve really gotten yourself killed, Lilliana, what were you thinking?” He added.Turning my head to look in his direction, I felt the hairs at the nape of my neck curling as the cold breeze grazed my ear like the touch of cold fingers.The last thing I wanted was to get myself engaged in a conversation with Kieran, even though
Lilliana’s POV“I’m sorry,” I muttered an apology to Kieran with no idea why when he’d just told me that he hoped Nikolai would treat me right.I don’t know why this man seems to think that he has to have a say on my relationship and I hate the fact that whenever he says things like this, he says it with so much confidence.It’s almost like he’ll be waiting in a corner for when Nikolai messes up so that he could tell me that he did warn and tell me so.“Also, Nikolai has always been treating me right, I don’t doubt the fact that he’s going to do so tonight too.” I smiled and Kieran nodded.“Right, I’m sorry about that, I just say things without thinking.” He apologized, smiling as he walked me to the entrance of the hall.“You should go now.” He finished and with a nod, I walked closer to the entrance before turning to look at him but he only urged me on.If anyone had told me that Kieran could be this nice and this much of a gentleman, I would’ve argued because he has always been a j
Lilliana’s POVGroaning, my eyes fluttered open and I stretched out to feel Nikolai beside me. His eyes were closed and his sleeping features were hotter than ever.Everything seemed peaceful and as the memories of what happened last night flooded my mind, I felt myself melting.We’d left the dinner hall and had a really good time before falling asleep. A smile formed on my lips and I moved Nikolai’s hair away from his face.“When you stare at me like that, it makes me want to eat you for breakfast.” Nikolai’s voice jolted me out of my thoughts as he pulled me into him.“Maybe I won’t stop staring at you like that then.” I threatened and I felt his cock kick against me.“Well, Good Morning.” I smiled, grinding against his cock and feeling it grow even harder and an inch longer.“Stop doing that, you still look exhausted.” Nikolai warned but stopping was the last thing I wanted to do.I’ve been feeling unusually horny these days and right now I wanted him to fuck me but he seemed too w
Nikolai’s POV“NIKOLAI!” Lilliana’s loud and alarmed voice reached me in the bathroom where I’d gone to take the ointment for her back.I didn’t need a soothsayer to tell me that she’d already probably seen the mark on her back. Hurried, my feet padded back to the bedroom and I walked in to Lilliana freaking out.Her towel had dropped to the ground and she had an obvious look of terror on her face. Tears already welled up in her eyes as she stared at me.“W— What’s going on? How did these marks get there? What’s happening?” She asked, freaking out and thrown into a world of confusion.“Calm down, it’s nothing serious, I promise I’ll get to the bottom of things and we’ll get something done about the claw marks.”“Do you even hear what you’re saying?” She screamed and I could’ve sworn that my eardrums bursted with that loud sound.“They are claw marks on my back and you’re asking me to calm down,” she screeched, “how did they get there? What’s happening? Do you know something?” She bomb
Lilliana’s POV“Keep it moving, bitch!” One of the ladies snarled at me from behind as I tried to keep up with my pace while also carrying the supplies for the sick Lycan King.My fist clenched and anger rippled through me as they hurled insults at me but I let them go, “she must be so weak or a cat already got her mouth.” Another lady said to me.I was still ignoring them when I lost my footing and landed face down on the ground. Everything I was holding flew around and my blood boiled with rage.My anger spiked as rage rushed through my veins and I could feel Nala, my Lycan, getting ready for a fight but I did all I could to calm her down.Being an omega and a maid, I’ve had nothing but bullies and insults to deal with but today was going to be different, instead of fighting back and getting in trouble with the house mistress, I’d decided to keep quiet.They have the whole of today and tomorrow to do what they want with me, to enjoy the pain they cause me because as soon as I turn e
Lilliana’s POVMy eyes opened and an angry looking man stood in front of me, his brows drew together in an angry frown as he stared at me intently.His cold grey eyes sent jolts of electricity down my spine. His face was bronze and he looked so tan, the set of his chin suggested a stubborn streak as his jaw tensed visibly.His classically handsome features made me feel like I was in a dream because there was no way I’m standing in front of someone so majestically handsome.His lips parted angrily and he was saying something but all I could focus on was his firm sensuous lips and his beautiful set of white teeth.Who is this man?His handsome face was kindled with a beauty that can’t be described. The lighting in the room glimmered over his face like beams of icy radiance and I couldn’t help but look down at his body.My eyes trailed a path from his face and my breath caught in my throat when they landed on his body. His broad shoulders and his smooth, tanned bare arm almost sent me in
