The Alpha King clutched his beloved mate in his arms, hastening toward their spacious king size bed. Their kiss was ravenous and with deep passion each time they came together. This was something that they both had wanted from the start, but failed to do it. And the opportunity had finally presented itself, and both wanted to savour the moment.He dropped her on the softness of the bed, trailing light, feather kisses on her neck, her cheeks, her temple. He went down further to V of her black silk robe and place chaste kisses between the mound of her breasts. He slowly undid her robe, exposing her breasts and a simple sheer material of her underwear covering the exquisite folds of her epicenter. She'd thought it would be a frantic joining, but again, he eased the pace."Need to slow down." He leaned down to kiss her, grasping her nape in that possessive way. "I want you to savour this."His lips slanted over hers, and he slipped his tongue in her mouth, but not to flick against her own
~~~Scarlett's Pov Scarlett stirred in her sleep. She slowly flutter her eyes open, to see the sun streaks coming through the curtains. She felt an arm tighten around her waist and pulled her closer to a solid warm chest. He murmured something in Spanish and Scarlett thought it was the sexiest thing she'd heard.The events of the previous night, left her body aching in the most delicious places. It was the first time she and Julian ever had sex, and it was the most exquisite time of her life. He took his time, exploring all the places she never thought existed. And work his way bringing her body to a peak of ecstasy that she had never experienced before. She looked up at his sleeping frame, and he looked so peaceful. His breathing steady, his long lashes fanning his cheeks. His lips set in a grim line. I ran my hands through his dark brown hair. It was the first time I've ever done it and he seemed to enjoy it as he was growling lowly in his sleep.A smile play at my lips, as I thoug
It was getting late and there was still no sign of Julian anywhere. I was watching The Originals and eating a tub of Strawberry flavored ice cream with chocolate chip in the living room.I thought about everything that happen with me and Julian till now. How we hated each other and how we always fought for dominance. The way we met, and how he came over for breakfast, and how awkward it was for me. I laughed at the memory. My mom catching me making out with her plate. I laughed harder.Being oblivious of my surroundings, the front door was open. "What's so funny?" I quickly stopped laughing. Turning my attention to the deep male voice."Oh, nothing." I said."No, I want to know." He came over to where I was sitting, carrying a big, black suit bag in one hand, and another bag that marked Chanel in the other. He was wearing a pair of dark ripped jeans and a black V neck shirt. It clung tightly on his frame, revealing the hard rippling muscles underneath. He completed his outfit with a p
I couldn't believe Julian had managed to pull off such a surprise. Everybody was talking, sipping champagne and having a good time."Scarlett!" Someone yelled. I didn't need to see who it was to know it was Pierce calling. He came and embrace me in a big, warm bear hug, sweeping me off my feet. I squealed."Pierce!" I beamed. "I missed you so much." He put me down on the ground and examined me."Gosh, Scarlett don't scare me like that ever again, you hear me?" He said, pointing his index finger at me, the same way he did when I was a child. I pout. "You have no idea what's it like not to have my sister in my presence. You're lucky you have such a mate that cares about you the way Julian does." He cupped my cheeks and looked into my eyes as he said those words. He place a kiss on my forehead."It sounds to me you and the Alpha King came to an amicable agreement once and for all." I said to him."Hell yeah!" He exclaimed. "I mean, you're the only thing we have in common. It was best to
After the party and seeing everyone back for the first time, I was ready to go home. My parents decided that they will introduce Julian and I as the new Luna and Alpha of the pack. My father also stated his retirement with him and my mom. My mother too, expressed her congratulations towards us and wished us the best in our endeavors. Not before she announced that Julian and I need to start working on babies as soon as possible because she wasn't getting any younger. The whole ballroom guffawed at my mother's blunt outburst. I was red like a tomato by the end of the night. Julian just laughed at my mother's ridiculous notion and said "Who knows we might have one that we don't know about yet." Rubbing my stomach for emphasis. He sent me a wink in my direction and I just wanted to die on the spot. Could this night get anymore embarrassing?After reaching home, I went to go and change. Julian entered the room just to see me taking off my risqué dress. "You have no idea, how I had to con
I locked up Julian's place and made my way to my Audi.I quickly went in and start up the engine, and began to make my way home. I drove at a steady pace. It wasn't a long drive about thirty minutes tops. In no time I was already home. I parked my car in the drive way. And made my way inside.I used my spare key and opened the door. "Pierce! Pierce!" I shouted. The place was so quiet.Is anybody even here? Damn. "Oh my god, ma'am it's really you!" Maria our maid beamed.I chuckled and ran into her arms. "Maria, hi." I said hugging her."It's good to have you back. I was away to celebrate my grandson's birthday. The Mr and Mrs gave me permission so I wasn't here for your surprise celebration." She explained."It's okay. It's still good to see you." I reassured her. She smiled."Likewise ma'am."I was about to head upstairs, when I forgot that I needed to ask about Pierce's whereabouts."Um, Maria," she stopped suddenly."Yes ma'am?""Where's Pierce?" I inquired."I don't know ma'am.
"So what's the plan?" Nina questioned.A evil smirk made it's way to my lips. "To make Julian Cesario green with envy."She chuckled. "You do realize that those bimbos in the picture have nothing on you right?""Stop being mature about this." I sneered at her. "I want to have some fun. And see Julian feast his blood lust eyes on my bathing suit." I reveal my swim wear to her."Are you fucking serious?!" She shrieked."Hell yes!" I said calmly."He's going to kill you Scarlett.""He's going to do it in bed." I winked at her. She laughed."Let's go crash this party." She said. I took up my wrap and put it on. Nina and I had already packed our bags and was now heading out to my car. I pop the trunk and she place the bags in there. This was going to be a very interesting encounter.~Julian's Pov I was on the beach with Chazz and the entire pack members. It was going great. Everyone was having fun and just enjoying themselves. I wish Scarlett was here so I could enjoy this some more. But
Two Months Later...After my failed attempt to make my mate jealous, it back fired. I mean he was jealous yes, but the way I imagined it wasn't how it pan out in the end. After he sent his message about me being his in my head. He stormed off not giving me a second glance. Even Chazz was surprised. "Julian!" I yelled as I wiggled my way out of the handsome stranger grasp. "Julian!" I yelled again.He didn't stop. I was literally jogging behind him to keep up. His long strides were powerful and hard to keep up with. One step for him was normal compared to my two steps to keep up with him. "Julian!" I said again panting coming off my chest heavily.He stop abruptly, allowing me to crash in his back. I groan at the contact and rubbed my nose."Ouch." I groan. He stood tall and mighty with his back turned to me. He was silent. It was deafening. "Julian I'm----""Sorry." He inserted smoothly. "Like every other time too, right?" He inquired as he turned around to face me. I could see the
Seven Months Later with baby in tow...*** Scarlett's PovHit.My body convulsed at the wave of pain that woke me in the middle of night. I removed the covers and turn on the lamp that sat on top of the night stand. I look down on my bed where I was sitting, where a liquid substance was covering my legs and the sheets. Hit.I was breathing heavily right now. Sweat bedded my forehead, as it was run down the sides of my face. I scream out so loud that I think Julian could've heard it all the way in England. Ugh! Fucking England! After Julian's proposal on the boat, we decided it would be a good idea to get married before the baby was born. So we did. During our reception, Julian received an emergency call that he was needed immediately to take care of some pack issues in England. Something about rogues attacking the city and killing innocent civilians.Knowing my husband, he was quick to assist Uncle Thorn because he was the only father figure he knew. Which meant he respected him en
*** Julian's Pov I've been up since morn' making the necessary preparations for Scarlett's big surprise. Last night had a big one for me and Scarlett, I confessed that I slept with Elana. If I want this relationship to work, I have to be honest with her. I don't want her to look at me like I disappointment, a liar moreover a possible regret. I don't want her to regret that she's my mate. I have to come clean and hope whatever the outcome is, I will still have her in my life. But before I could do that, I have to ensure that I straighten things out with the members of the Ross's family. I know how family is a big thing for Scarlett so I wanted to ensure everything was good with them.I was currently in the living room of the Ross's household sitting opposite from her parents.."How can we trust that you won't hurt my daughter again Julian?" Mrs. Ross questioned me with a stern expression on her face. Her arms were folded across her chest."You have to trust me that nothing like that
I quickly turn away from his smoldering gaze because I didn't want him to see the truth in my eyes. I squeeze my eyes shut from keeping the tears from falling.He walked over to where I was standing and spin me around to face him. He captured my hands in a tight grip, holding them close to his chest. I looked up at him with my eyes filled with emotion. "Are you sleeping with him, Scarlett?" He asked softly. "What?" I whispered in shock. "You heard me. Now answer the question." He urged.His granite expression meant that he was serious. I snatched my hands out of his steel like grip and crack my hand against his cheek. "How dare you insult me the way you just did. I'm not sleeping with him you bastard, you and I are not in the same category Mr. Cesario. Furthermore, I'm pregnant you insensitive asshole!"I examined my bruised hand, looking at the purple faded scars that were now left there. I turned my back to him as I rubbed my hand to ease the pain."You're pregnant?" I didn't ans
***Julian's Pov It was minutes to eight when Chazz and I pulled up to the Ross's mansion. The parking lot was full with all sorts of expensive looking cars and limousines that were lined up neatly on the asphalt ground. Valets conglomerated outside the Ross's mansion entrance patiently awaiting the arrival of guests and celebrities to attend the gala of the century. I brought my vehicle at a stop at the entrance, where a valet was readily waiting upon our arrival. Chazz and myself, along with two other men, for security purposes, exited the car. I throw the young valet my keys and warned him not to let anything happen to my vehicle, or else he wouldn't like the consequences. The young lad paled at my comment, nodding his head that he understood what I was saying to him. I shake my head at the young man as he was clearly about to collapse under my strict gaze.Chazz came out the car along with the other two men. I went around to the passenger side and the valet went around the drive
***Scarlett's PovIt had been two hours since my mother decided to drag me out of my bed to look at the various dresses down in the living room for tonight's gala. I wasn't impressed with any of the choices that the stylist had picked. Albeit I was two months pregnant and going, I didn't want my baby bump to be showing to the public as yet. I mean, a pregnant Luna without her mate wasn't what I was going for. Believe it or not people love to talk. I just didn't want to be the main topic of their idle gossip tonight."Sweetheart," my mother called me from my thoughts. "You need to pick a dress." I was sitting on the couch in our living room. The stylist had about six different racks of beautiful dresses. Maybe if I'd actually paid attention I could actually pick something nice. But I didn't want to go for nice tonight. I wanted to go for jaw - dropping - I - don't - look - like - I'm - two - months - pregnant look. Or was that too much? Either way, I made my way over to the stainless
*** Friday Evening 6:02pm...I was tired. I'd just finish helping Nina and Pierce work on their choreography for tomorrow's gala in the studio of the pack house. I grab my bottle of water from beside the stero system and gulp it down generously. "Easy tiger." My brother teased.I flipped him my middle finger as I took the last gulp of my water and blech. "Oops, sorry bro." I quickly cover my mouth embarrassed at what I just did."Nasty." He made a face as he glared at me up and down. "Just nasty.""Shut up fool." I playfully slapped his arm and laughing."Okay, we're heading out Scar." Nina gave me a quick hug and peck my cheek. "Thanks again babe." "See you later sis." Pierce ruffled my hair."Asshole." I muttered. "Love you too." He chuckle as he walked out the studio door with Nina in tow.I sat on the chair that was in the room. Ever since last week till now, I've been taking care of myself. I don't worry about anything much right now. Every now and then, I think about him, and
We stood in Scarlett's room. She was still sleeping, she seem to have impove because color was returning to her skin.Couple seconds later, Dr. Jackson appeared in the room."Morning everyone." She acknowledges us. We quickly mumble the same greeting back to her."So we've run some tests, and Scarlett is fine and healthy." She informed all of us. Everyone was super relieve to hear the good news, especially my mother. "Oh thank God." My mother breathed as she place her hand over her chest."However, we did come across something else though." There was a deafening silence in the room."What is it doctor?" Dad spoke up for us."Well you see, Nina told us that she fainted as well as her skin tone was pale. Her blood count was low too. She hasn't been properly eating either, and she seem a bit stressed as well."Nobody spoke. We weren't really sure where she was going with this."We found out that Scarlett is pregnant." "Oh my God, doctor." My mother was once again relieved. "This is t
***Alpha Caine's PovMy wife and I sat in the canteen of the Watson's Memorial Hospital drinking a hot cup of steaming coffee. She held the coffee mug with both of her hands staring at it impassively."Katerina," I started off. She still stared at her mug in her hands. "Talk to me." I took my hands and grasp hers, giving her a tight squeeze for reassurance that I was here for her."How are you so calm about this, Caine?" She mumbled finally looking into my tired eyes. "I know my daughter. She's a fighter just like her mom." I gave her a small smile. She shakes her head. "I just want my little girl to be okay.""And what makes you think our little girl won't be okay?" I didn't like the fact that my wife was harboring doubts that Scarlett wasn't going to be okay. Is not like she had cancer, and she'll be losing the hair on her head anytime soon. God forbid man, she just fainted. For some strange reason I wasn't worried. Why? I didn't know."I'm just scared, okay!" She affirms. "Baby
I was in deep sleep. Sleeping away my pain, my humiliation, my pride and my broken heart. I couldn't believe this. God, I messed up big time. No mate. No love. No nothing. My senses felt numb. My eyes sore due to the heavy flooding of tears I was shedding. "Come to bed Julian." That one line was on constant replay in my mind. Like a scratch record. My brain failed to erase it. It was a just a reminder of how badly I'd fucked up. "Scarlett!" I heard someone calling my name. I didn't pay it any mind. Didn't want to acknowledge it."Scarlett Ross!" The person sounded again."Wake up!" I groaned at this intruder who was breaking me from my slumber of thoughts. I didn't want my best friend to see me like this, vulnerable, pathetic and weak. But what could I do, he's my mate for christ sakes. But it was already too late, Nina had burst through my door fuming, I'd imagined."Oh my God, Scarlett..." She whispered as she came closer to my bed and looked at my current state. She sat down on
