“What?” Alinta asked in a barely audible whisper.“They are gone, Als. We should have never abandoned them at the airport. Now they are gone; this bond with Bellinor is not a hex,” Angela cried bitterly. Alinta fell to her knees at this devastating news. Her mind went blank, and tears began to run down her numb cheeks without her even realizing it. Her chest grew heavy as guilt weighed her down.“Our curse might have started with Bellinor; it could also end with him. The Moon is showing us grace for a second time. Please don’t be too eager to dismiss it. I am not going to tell you what to do, Linti, but let’s just observe things for now. Onyx’s demeanour has completely changed since we became mates; he’s a different wolf for the better.""I'm sorry," Alinta could only utter through her sobs, clutching her heart and thinking only about Orion, the second werewolf to have truly captured her heart. It was strange; she knew nothing about him, and they had never even exchanged words, but no
Orion anxiously stared at the seatbelt light, desperate to get out of the plane and reach his beloved. Silas was feeling the same as his person, restlessly pacing up and down in his mind. It was 5:15 a.m., and just as the plane came to a stop, Orion jumped up, grabbed his meagre bag, and rushed toward the exit. Three of the flight attendants were about to scold him, but when they caught sight of the handsome determined man, they became flustered and only offered a gentle warning. Orion didn’t care; the moment the plug door opened, he rushed out.He made his way to the airport pick-up zone, where numerous cabs and shuttles were parked.“Hello, sir! Do you need a ride to your home or hotel?” asked an eager taxi driver, desperate for a customer.“Yes, please! I need to get to Bare Mountain’s Shadow,” Orion replied, urgency evident in his voice. He and Silas remembered the last place they felt their beloved, but it was still a long drive away.The driver’s expression changed; he paled and
Strenuous breaths and suffocating kisses of pleasure echo through the bare room. She is helpless, though he has betrayed her, and threw her away even due to his selfishness, their bond has finally brought them together. She ran away, and when he found her, she desperately tried to distance herself from him with all her being, but here they are, bodies aligned perfectly, and now she is completely powerless against the mate bond. Yearning only for his love."You are mine Rebekah, you will never escape me again!" He growled determinedly, his hot breath caressing her face before he aggressively continued to devour her swollen lips."Roman," Rebekah moaned as he licked her neck with his seductive tongue, trapping her with the weight of his body against the wall. He unzips his jeans and starts pump..."Nope, nuh-uh, I'm done!""Ah no please, don't stop reading. I beg of you Alinta!" The sound of a book slammed shut echoes through the empty library."You and I are done here Ange," said Alint
"Loved Until Death" was no mere love drama, but an actual documentary of a woman who was infatuated with her high school crush. As the years passed, so did her obsession with him grow, but the man of her desire rejected her countless times. Eventually, she snapped and devised a plan to kidnap and torture him up to the point where he fell victim to Stockholm syndrome.She held him captive for three years until, fortunately, she became the main suspect in his disappearance and was ultimately caught. During the raid, as the police barged into her cellar, they found the woman sitting on her captive's lap, willingly holding her by the waist. She threatened that if the police came any closer, she would take both their lives. During the negotiations, the kidnapper was about to fulfil her promise when she was shot, and the man was saved. Unfortunately, the woman had psychologically ruined him to the point of no return. Two months after the incident, he took his own life, claiming he wanted to
As life stirred within her once more, a panicked voice cried out in relief, "Thank the Moon! You are awake!"Alinta opened her eyes and nearly jumped when she saw a familiar face filling her vision. "Helen? What happened?" she groaned."You scared the life out of me, that's what happened! When you didn’t show up at the café, Lilly tried to contact Ange to find out if you were still on your way. When she couldn’t reach her, I headed straight to your place only to find a huge red wolf passed out on your doorstep! How are you feeling? Can you get up? I'm taking you to the doc!"Alinta took a moment to assess her surroundings and mentally evaluate herself. "Ange you okay?" she quickly asked, before looking at her friend with a puzzled expression."Yeah, I feel fine now, but that was rough!" Angela grunted somewhat feral."We're good now, thank you, Helen. I don't know what happened, but on our way home, we started feeling off, and as Ange reached the porch, it was lights out. You mentione
"Rogue Deity? No, I have never heard of such an entity," Alinta replied, intrigued."As you know, a true rogue is a title reserved for criminals of our kind, not for a wolf who leaves his family or friends to travel alone in search of adventure. The Deity in this story was a powerful wolf, created specifically to control and dominate immoral wolves of power, such as kings and leaders," said the old woman, her eyes sparkling with excitement. "Those men of power became increasingly corrupt due to their human disposition, making them susceptible to temptation." Deanna paused for a moment to gather her thoughts before continuing."I think I need to start from the very beginning!""No, she always does this!" Angela exclaimed in the confines of her person's mind. Alinta smiled, stifling a laugh. Unlike Angela, she didn't mind waiting; Aunt Deanna's storytelling was an art to behold."Now, as you know, around 2100 BC our race was created by a dark witch who cursed a shepherd for selling her
Deanna entered with a tea trolley, and a huge grin on her face. "Now, for a more pressing matter in the present! How are things with you, my child? You’ve been like a ghost these days."Alinta smiled gratefully as she poured herself some tea and grabbed a muffin. "These smell divine! Thank you, Aunt Deanna. I'm doing well, I’m finally able to close the chapter on my mother’s passing and found peace. I’m ready to make some much-needed changes to the cottage I had been putting off.""That is wonderful news to hear, my dear! Your mother would be so thrilled. I know Estelle would want for you to move on and be happy."Alinta stared down at her cup while stirring the spoon gently, she could only nod her head in agreement, for Deanna spoke the truth, but it was difficult for her to talk when hearing her mother's name. "Anything else?" Deanna asked playfully, raising and lowering her eyebrows to lighten up the mood.Alinta's cheeks flushed, and she quickly dismissed the question. "Nope, unfo
It was a breezeless night in the famous Silver Forest, with the moon appearing large and intimidating as it hung close to the earth. Werewolves considered this a blessed time, for the Moon God was making his presence known to his children.The Silver River flowed lazily, allowing any bypasser to see the moon's clear reflection in the water. It was close to midnight, and the forest was silent, except for the occasional cricket rubbing its legs in search of companionship. The moon shone at its brightest, softly illuminating everything in its silver light. Every full moon brought this enchanting glow to the forest, which is how it earned the name Silver Forest. However, tonight, the moon radiated an extraordinary beauty.Gradually, a few bubbles erupted from the water, disturbing the tranquil atmosphere. Cautious frogs, sound asleep on their lily pads, sleepily turned to look at the disturbance. More bubbles followed, and fish nearby jumped out of the water as if frightened by something.

"Oh, you're back!" exclaimed an excited female voice. Orion sat in his seat, not acknowledging the woman next to him. His heart was shattered at the thought that his mate might have betrayed them."Hey, what's the matter? If you need someone to listen to your troubles, I can help," the woman coaxed tenderly."I apologise; I did not hear what you said," Orion replied, genuinely sorry as he realized the woman was staring at him with her large blue eyes."No problem at all! You look deeply upset. Care to share? I am Martha, by the way," she said, extending her hand to him."I can sense she has other motives," Silas warned disinterestedly.Orion agreed with his wolf, lightly shaking Martha's hand while maintaining a sober expression. "Orion. I appreciate your concern, but I'm fine.""I see. Sorry, I didn't mean to pry," Martha said, pouting and batting her spidery eyelashes. She seductively placed her hand on his upper arm.Orion immediately withdrew his arm and said sternly, "Please, I'd
Bellinor pulled Alinta close to him, contentedly drawing circles on the left side of her ribs. He relished the feeling of her being so near, licking his lips as he still tasted her fragrance on his tongue. "Oh, my beautiful mate, you are driving me insane! I swear, once I have your heart and fully claim you, I will make up for lost time in our love," Bellinor whispered tenderly into Alinta's ear. She released a sleepy whimper, her body shifting subtly as she experienced a nightmare. "Shh, shh, it's alright, my darling, I am here now," Bellinor cooed gently."Behaving are we?" asked a satisfied voice."By the emotions, I am feeling from you, I can't say the same for you, you scoundrel," Bellinor laughed impressed and slightly envious."Indeed, my scarlet rose is the perfect bride, though I had my share of she-wolves in the past, Angela is by far a goddess. She satisfied my desires beyond my expectations," Draven purred gutturally then proceeded to clean himself.Bellinor's manhood becam
Angela was agitated, running in circles at the space available from the monstrous infiltrating rose bushes. She cussed and hissed as she meditated on their situation. Her person was fast asleep, and she sensed Bellinor's presence all over Alinta doing who knows what. She also grew increasingly anxious, knowing Onyx might appear at any time."You fucking weeds better earn your keep and prevent that mongrel from coming near me," she hissed as she felt someone enter her territory."My, my, such a captivating creature, yet has such a foul mouth," a deep voice hummed out loud, taking Angela by surprise. Her fur raised on her back and she growled anxiously."First of all, I don't give a fuck about your opinion. Secondly, who are you?" She spat ferociously whilst looking around for the intruder."Is this how you always treat your guests?" Asked the voice now closer. Angela was about to retort when, all of a sudden, the roses magically cleared away, creating a perfect arched entrance. As she
On a plane heading to Mercurysburg, Orion sat like a statue with his eyes closed. He had managed to book a flight for ten a.m., which would land in the capital around five a.m. the next morning. Orion was in a meditative state; he had been practising this every day for two hours, hoping for at least a fraction of his memories to return. During his travels, he also tried to learn as much as he could about the world he was in.Although Silas had spent centuries in this world, most of that time was spent in his forest, uninterested in what lay beyond its borders during the seasons of change. When the time came for him to leave the forest, he had no idea what to expect. It was thanks to Greer and his many avian friends from nearby cities, who were familiar with the affairs of the two-legged, featherless giants—whether shifters or humans—that Orion and Silas were able to navigate the world outside his forest.Now, Orion and Silas had thirteen long hours remaining on the agonizing flight. A
Bellinor gently released her hands to wrap his arms securely around her and carefully rocked his treasure while planting occasional kisses on her head. "Fear not, our princess is in no danger. This is just part of the plan," Draven reassured calmly."What? You did this?!" Bellinor was about to rage, but Draven interrupted him."Her voice is gone to prevent her from rejecting us; it is only temporary until she is branded," Draven said dangerously."I see," replied Bellinor, while enjoying Alinta in his arms. He noticed she seemed ready to bolt if given the chance. "The doctor will be here soon, my darling," he whispered, then let go of her neck to brush her hair away from her face. The woman turned her head away from his hand and started to shift uneasily, holding her neck again as the pain became more pronounced. Seeing she had an opening, Alinta mentally set aside her discomfort and attempted to escape his hold, but Bellinor easily trapped her in his embrace."Is it still sore, my da
"Wh...what do you...?" Alinta's face paled when she saw the empty office. She frantically looked around, hoping to find Orion, but once she accepted that he was indeed not there, she turned to face Bellinor, confusion written all over her face.Bellinor smiled at her knowingly and approached her ardently. "My darling, do you still fear me?" Alinta backed away, provoking a wave of anger in Bellinor. However, just as quickly as it ignited, it faded, and his soft expression returned."Please, do not fear me. I have given you my heart, love, and sincerity. I only worship you, my little Vixen. You are completely oblivious to the extent of my adoration for you. I have been there for you during your moments of loneliness and even when you wished me away. I know what I did to you twelve years ago was wrong, but after all these years, you are still the only female I desire and love."Alinta took another step back, her wide-open eyes fixed on Bellinor. Aside from his eerie, infatuated expressio
Sleepily stirring from her slumber, Alinta shot up as she recalled what happened before she passed out. Waking up in an unfamiliar bed frightened both her and Angela. Her wolf was aggressive and on edge, ready to annihilate, frustration evident at her repeated failures to protect them.Alinta, on the other hand, trembled at the thought of what might have happened while they were unconscious. Checking her body for any pain or bruises, she closed her eyes and held her breath to examine her vulnerable areas. Alinta sighed in relief, realising she was untouched. This news calmed Angela somewhat, but her anxiety to escape matched Alinta's determination."What the hell happened? Did that jerk kidnap us?!" Angela growled anxiously."I don't think so. Before I passed out, I remember he was thrown off of us," Alinta replied, shivering at the memory."Als!" Angela barked nervously."What?" Alinta jumped."I’m trapped! That creepy black plant grew around me and it's fucking massive! I can't jump
