70. The date night"Aria! Aria!!!" She felt a jerk and came back to present with a gasp expelling from her mouth. "Are you alright, Aria!" Daisy helped her sit on the chair and quickly brought her a glass of water. "Here, drink this." Aria desperately threw it down her throat and wiped her lips with the back of her hands. While Daisy sat near her feet with a worried face, Aria found Melody breathing heavily within her, 'Are you okay, Aria.''Yes, I am. What about you?' She answered back to her wolf. 'Thankfully, I am.' Melody replied. 'What was that, Melody? I don't understand what I just saw.' Aria spoke on the link. 'It wasn't a dream, was it?' Melody took her time before she responded, 'It wasn't a dream, Aria.''Then what, Melody!' 'You have unearthed one of your skills as a mage, Aria.' Melody's voice was streaked with exhilaration. 'One of my skills as a mage?' 'Yes, Aria! Pre-vision. You can see visions. Isn't that awesome!' 'It is, but if it's going to be this intimi
71. A kiss of the first date As Tony's car disappeared in the thick night, Kai jumped out of nowhere with his phone pressed to his ear, "Bro, they just left!" "Kai?" Daisy was standing by the door of Aria's house. She had come to watch her leave with Tony. She quickly closed the door and came rushing towards him. "I'll follow them for you, don't worry." He acknowledged her presence with a small smile and continued to talk on the call. His free hand went around her waist, then down to her ass to give it a light squeeze. It was followed with a spank that left Daisy with shocked eyes. "What are you doing here?" Daisy asked but Kai was still busy. He was talking about the same place Aria was moving towards with Tony. She didn't know what was going on in his mind. When he disconnected the call and turned to her to kiss her, she put a hand on his mouth and glared at him. Kai frowned, "Baby, you've promised to give me a kiss everytime we meet. Why are you breaching your own rules
72. A bloody warning for Jake Heat pricked Aria's skin and her chest seemed to be stuck in a dense forest of temptation. She didn't want to kiss back but the hand on her throat flattened around her neck. It caressed her skin slowly, causing her eyes to shut tight and mouth to move. A soft moan echoed within the wall of her enclosed mouth as she tried to resist the lips on her lips. This was swallowing her whole. The kiss was taking a toll over her senses. Melody was intoxicated so badly by the sudden kiss that she moaned inside her head, thus weakening Aria to her core. 'Get a grip on yourself, Aria!' She snapped at herself and using all her might, she pushed a hand on the iron-like shoulder of her kisser. "How dare you kiss me, Jake Ragnar!" She hastily, on her wobbly knees, got up and wiped her mouth with the back of her hand, attempting to wipe away the juddering sensation the kiss induced in her lips. "But you liked it, didn't you?" The look she witnessed on Jake's face wa
73. Prove it to me White hot pain seared through Aria when she laid her eyes on Jake. She didn't notice it earlier (because he didn't give her a chance to) that he was dressed in a white shirt. The blood on it stood out aggressively as if he was bleeding to death. But the dark smirk on his lips said otherwise. Jake didn't seem to mind his wounds, nor did he look like he was in pain. His hands went into his pockets and he smiled at Tony, "There's a stipulated time decided by our convenient store guy before which you can never leave here." His eyes fell on the glass of drink in Tony's hold, "And oh, he's never letting you go unless you drink this." Aria followed the direction of his finger that was pointed at the glass. One was bubbling white champagne which he probably bought for himself. The other one was green in color with something green floating in it. "His plan will be into ruins if he can't make you drink this. Right, Tony?" Tony acted as if Jake was speaking in an alien
74. Take a step towards him, Aria! Aria's POVMy eyes followed his back as he disappeared in a dark corridor with red, too blurry to look through, lights burning up from the ceiling. My lungs hurt as I have stopped breathing since I saw Kai collapse and close his eyes after he drank the mojito that was bought for me.For me? A drink with drugs.'It's your vision, Aria.' Melody whispered in a thrilled tone. She was processing what just happened. 'The drugged drink was not supposed to be for any other girl but you. Oh my God! The guy was Tony who spiked the drink in your vision. Can't believe it!'I was still frozen, my skin too cold to feel the dress that was on me. My eyes went to find Tony. He was still on the floor trying to hold his bleeding mouth. I trusted this guy with my life. He was good. He never gave me bad vibes. Then what went suddenly wrong?"You know what, Aria, this asshole has trapped many girls like you who trusted him blindly. You're not the first girl." Zack sudden
75. Accept it that you want me!!! Aria's POVI can't believe I kissed him.I would have deemed it was my pretty sweet imagination if it wasn't for his face I was gaping with my wide open eyes. I should've let the feelings take in and indulge both physically and mentally into the kiss, and closed my eyes yet I was anxious about something that wouldn't even happen and stared back at him.I wanted to see his looks as I kissed him to see how he was feeling about it.He had frozen in the spot, his hands on the side of my shoulders as I caught him off guard. Since it was something I was doing for the very first time and I was not experienced, I took small licks of his mouth until it fell open.I couldn't kiss him perfectly without his teeth grazing my lips, so I looked up shyly from the kiss into his popped-out blacks and whispered, "Can you close your mouth? I can't kiss you properly."That snapped him out of immobility. He flickered his eyes and gripped his head with his hands. At that m
76. Their First Night I shut her with a deep kiss as I slid my hand under her dress between her thighs. To say I've been waiting for this would be an understatement. I was always ready with a predator's focus, just on a standby for the right opportunity that I had now in my hands right in the form of Aria. She tasted sweet and with my fingers finding her slick pussy, it tasted sherbet sweet. I stroked her clit and earned her moan in response. She had wanted this. She was waiting for this. And to think this was her first time with me, I couldn't help but promise myself to give it to her as fairytale-like delightful as I could. The heat in my cock spread throughout my body. The only way it could be put off was through Aria. I wanted my dick balls deep inside her right now but I controlled myself and pulled away. "Jake!" She grasped for breath as she purred my name. I opened the door and helped her inside. Going behind the wheel, I turned the gas on. My right hand went between her
77. Watch Me As I Do ItAria put a hand to her mouth to stop herself from screaming. Heavens, this felt so good. His mouth around her Virgin... Ah! Not a virgin nipple moved clockwise. Aria bit her lips hard in order to hold back a loud moan when he looked up, "You must not stop yourself from moaning, honeybun. My bedroom walls are soundproof, not that anyone is there in the mansion to hear it." She removed her hand and saved her mouth from the pain that was building from holding it captive, "It's just you and me." She was happy to hear that. Well, he had mentioned it in the beginning it was them but still the novice part of her wanted to come out clean next morning when they walked out the mansion. "I want you to enjoy this as much as I do, Aria. It's your first time and I want to make it the best." Oh that she could reply with words. Only her throat was blocked with trepidation of what was coming like gypsum. She managed a head bob before her mouth was pulled for a dizzy kiss.
119Aria's POVAfter leaving my house and Kai and Daisy in it, I rushed into a dark alley to cry my heart out. I was in pain I couldn't narrate. My heart was hurting from Jake's ignorance while my body vibrated from the after-effects of my mate's force used on me. My life went from bright to dark overnight. I was made to pay for a mistake I didn't even commit. My wolf was howling for respite. We both needed some rest. All these hours we tolerated since the morning has taken a toll on her. However, we refused to relax. Not now. Not when our eyes were blazing with the fire of revenge. Melody and I have vowed to not sit quiet until we settled scores with Noah Rhodes. That bastard caught us off guard. He attacked me when I was not prepared. But now my veins were fueled with aggression, my limbs aching to fight back. My mind was compelling me to use all the tricks I have learned from my father through intense training. I moved in the darkness as I made my way to Noah's house in search
117"How dare you play such a trick on me?" Noah's voice bounced off the walls. He picked up Aria from over the broken bed and clutched her hair tightly, making her wail. He pulled them in a merciless joke as his canines surfaced. His muscles convulsed in fury as he brought his face closer to Aria, "It was Jake's idea, wasn't it? He asked you to do this to trouble me.""Aah!" Aria's body was a huge ball of pain. She tapped on his wrist so he would let go. Alas, enraged like an uncontrollable bull, Noah tossed her across the room again. Aria fell on her weak study table, crushing it under her. She hissed with thick tears streaming out of her eyes as a pointed piece of wood pierce her inner thigh. Noah didn't show any pity as he raised her by her hair again. Her scalp ached as a thousands brightly blinking stars burst across her vision. "I detest Moon goddess for mating me with a gold digging whóre like you. You are despicable and..." His words faded out as Aria's senses spun into
116Aria walked on the quiet road on light feet. She was feeling cold and had to wrap her arms around herself. The winds were piercing into her skin and the dust it carried swirled around her. She shuffled her feet ahead with teary eyes as she wondered where to go.She just returned from the club she heard the girls mention in the library. It turned out that Jake left an hour before she reached there. Then she went to his home, the alpha mansion. Unfortunately, there were a dozen expensive cars lining outside the mansion. The alpha probably had visitors, and thus she couldn't gather up the courage to walk into that house while powerful people occupied it.There could be one, if not all, disliking her father. She was too frightened to appear in front of any such person who could take a dig at her to humiliate the most feared hunter in the pack. That being said, she left without meeting Jake.Now as she started her walk to nowhere, she reminiscenced the times she spent with Jake. He had
115. Truth out in front of Daisy "I hate her for hurting Lana, Kai. I will never forgive her."She banded her hands around his waist stiffly and wailed. "She not only cheated on Jake and my sister but on me too. I trusted and loved her just like Lana. Why did she have to do that? She was very well versed with the fact that Noah was dating my sister. But she still kissed him." Kai chewed the inside of his cheek agitatedly. He wished to tell her about Noah and Aria being each other's mate but he bit it down. It wasn't his place to tell her. But he definitely needed to make her see some sense and not entirely blame Aria for the kiss. "Do you realize this wouldn't have happened if Aria didn't go to the old age home with you?" "What are you insinuating, Kai Sinclair? Do you want to say that I influenced Aria to do that." Daisy's voice hardened ruthlessly. "All I'm saying is that Aria isn't the only one who you should condemn. Noah is equally—" "What's wrong with you, Kai?" Daisy pus
114. No more friends from now on! Aria tried to rein in her breaths after coming to the sports ground. She held onto the railing around the sitting area and pressed her lips together. Her body wasn't helping her. She sat down in the stand and buried her face in her hands. 'Aria, you are making it more difficult for us. Do you know that?' Melody whispered in a heavy voice. As a wolf, things were already messed up for her. Her mate didn't want her. He was dating and making out with another she-wolf in the name of punishing Aria and her. There was Jake to care for them and help them get back at the fucker. But right now he was also mourning for betrayal Aria never meant to commit. It wasn't entirely a betrayal. She was forced to kiss. There were no sparks and most importantly it disgusted them both. "I can't put their words in the back of my mind, Melody. My heart is squeezing. I don't know what to feel." Aria breathed ruggedly. The sky was a deep, foreboding gray, with clouds that
113. He's hurt Aria appraised them closely. Their dresses caught the light in the library, specifying they've never been off the racks of their wardrobes before this. Their hair done flawlessly in parlours and their nails painted and shaped in different ways.One of the three girls, dressed in a yellow dress, scoffed and rolled her eyes, "Aria's finally getting exposed for the trash she is. That photo of her kissing Noah had left me motionless for long minutes. How could she do that?""You're right. I was in the middle of getting my eyebrows done when that photo came. Ugh, that girl's a disgusting, manipulative liar. She thinks she's so perfect with her fake smile and her 'oh, I'm so in love with Jake' act." The second girl on the table who had the longest and pointed nails spoke with contempt. Aria moved back into the shadows behind the shelves after hearing that. She felt a jab of pain in her heart for being called a manipulative liar too. 'Don't, Aria. You just promised me that
112. Craving for Jake Aria was clueless. Her mind was a maze covered with fog and her heart running wildly like an out of control stallion in her chest. She blinked her lashes to clean the mist of tears, except the burn remained. It made the back of her eyes throb while her throat became thick.She was unable to breath, her skin growing hotter and hotter, the rush of adrenaline becoming intense. She tried not to hyperventilate but the event that just transpired, the pushes she tolerated, the malice she detected in her one and only best friend's eyes along with the condemnation she saw in Kai's expressions, it was difficult not to.Aria walked on light feet, too afraid to make a noise. Her heart throbbed everywhere in her body. Her fingers twitched and her toes curled in her shoes. She took small and unnoticeable steps towards the library while she attempted to walk by the wall to avoid curious eyes. She was majorly on the receiving end of hostility at the moment. But her luck gave h
111. Go away, Aria! "K-kai," Aria blinked her teary eyes as relief washed over her.Kai was Jake's best friend. As much as he was faithful to Jake, he respected her. Aria had this feeling that Kai would hold her trembling frame— like the nice guy and good friend that he was— and wipe her tears.Unfortunately, the moment she rushed towards him on her shivery legs, he bared his canines for her to see as his warning."K-kai?" Aria experienced a brief moment of cardiac arrest, watching Kai give her that look.He sized her up with eyes clouded with anger and drawled grimly, "I am ashamed of myself for liking you, Aria. How could you do this?"Aria fought to breathe. Dragging in a series of sharp, gasping breaths as she struggled to maintain eye contact. The world around her has turned to a blank space. She saw nothing. She noticed nothing. She could hear nothing except for Kai's angry heartbeats and his breaths coming out heavily as he struggled to keep his fury in control. "Jake loved y
110. Go back to dirt Aria came back home. She realized that she was all sweaty and jittery the minute she sat down on the couch in the living room. Her face was scorching from Noah's touch, her lips bleeding from too much biting.To say he was her mate, but nothing about the kiss made her stomach drop. It only distressed her. It felt like hot, hot boiling water was poured on her.Getting up, she quickly darted inside the restroom and removed her clothes. She stood under the cold water and put her hands on the wall of tiles as she slumped her head, breathing ruggedly.She felt disgusted. Her lips felt violated. Tremors billowed up her spine as Aria vigorously rubbed her lips to wash the touch of Noah's lips.It felt like she cheated on Jake, and the feeling pressed down on her.Aria came out and put on Jake's tee that he happily gave to her. Like those girlfriends who relished wearing their boyfriend's t-shirts as night dress in novels, Aria wanted to recreate it. Thus she requested
