Chapter 30 - Date by the LakeRomeo POVEverything was ready, and I had no idea how I was going to thank Rose, because Stella agreed to come to dinner with me. I will be forever indebted to her and Nate.Suddenly, Max was alerted, and we smelled her Strawberry Cheesecake scent. She was nearby, and I couldn't help but be anxious about that. This is the first time I have done something like this for someone. Usually, girls throw themselves at me, so I never had the need to court someone before, not even Paige.Her soft footsteps sounded against the forest ground, my heart was pounding, and soon my eyes locked with hers. Wow, she is a vision. The dress Luna Martha sent looks beautiful on her. I had to take a deep breath in order to control myself.She smiled at me and her soft voice quickly said “Thanks for the invitation, Alpha…” I took one of her hands in mine and with my other hand I caressed her cheek, “Please call me Romeo…” She gulped and nodded.I walked towards the picnic setting.
Romeo POVI saw her silhouette heading towards the lake. I was hypnotized by her sensual walking, which I am sure she is not doing on purpose. I just find everything she does sexy as fuck. Then I saw her hands reach the back of her dress, and suddenly, I noticed the fabric drop on the floor. I had to blink twice to break away from my trance and realize that she had jumped into the water in her underwear.I quickly stripped down, only keeping my boxers and jumped in the water, following her. Max was pushing me to mate with her, and I had to control him with all my willpower. She was floating in the middle of the lake, and I swam towards her. I wrapped my arms around her narrow and firm waist. I pulled her against my chest, her breast pressed against my chest, my hands roaming her back and my dick pounding inside my boxers. I locked eyes with her and whispered in her ear “ I love you, Stella…”Soon my lips crashed on hers. The kiss was urgent and passionate. The skin-to-skin contact sent
Paige POVI went to visit Coral, my witch friend. She was distressed because she had a vision of me losing Romeo. You see, she wants to rule the world and to do so, she needs me as Luna of the Royal Pack.I, on the other hand, need her to become Luna, and then I plan to dispose of her. Once I have achieved my goal, but in the meantime, I need to play along."Hey, Coral.. What is going on?" I asked as soon as I entered her shop. "Well sweetie, yesterday I had a dream and I saw how Romeo is strengthening his bond with Stella, and she is gaining her powers… Haven't you felt it?" She asked, and then I reflected on the tiredness and weakness I have been feeling the last couple of days."Yeah. Now that you mention it… I have been feeling quite tired…" I said with concern. "She is breaking the spell… If you don't intervene, she and Romeo will be together soon… and everythi
Stella POVI woke up tangled in two strong arms. As soon as I moved, his beautiful blue eyes snapped open, and a shy smile showed on his sexy lips. “Good Morning, Beautiful,” he said in his husky morning voice. My body lit up on fire just hearing his sexy voice, his scent clouding my senses.I smiled at him and replied, “Good Morning, My Alpha…” He raised his head to kiss my forehead.“I love it when you call me that, Sweetheart.” He tightened his grip on my body, but I needed to go to the bathroom and freshen up. I could almost guarantee that my hair was a mess.“Romeo, Could you please let me go?” I asked him, and he snuggled more.“Not can't do, sweetheart… I just had the best night ever, and I need more time with you like this.” He whispered in my ear, sending shivers all over my body, and then he conti
Romeo POVAfter breakfast, I went to the dungeons with Alpha Leo. Nate and the team started getting all the reports of the attack, and we started analyzing the data, to see if this was the attack we had expected on this pack. After all, the previous attacks were full front attacks and this one seemed like an unplanned rogue attack.The stench of the dungeons, a mixed blend of blood, dirty, feces, and rotten, invaded my nose in an instant. I usually hated interrogations, but I was desperate to know why they targeted Stella. CrescentMoon´s Beta was there warming up and preparing our prisoner for the interrogation.I quietly sat on a chair across from the beaten-up rogue, and pushing my Alpha aura, calmly said, “You will now tell me your name, your boss's name, and why you attacked this pack yesterday…” His bloodshot eyes looked at me with hatred, and he gave me a wicked smile.
Rose POVWe were having lunch. The Special Ops team, Luna Martha, informed me that Paige had requested a picnic basket to share with her sister. I have no idea Paige's intentions in taking Stella out on a picnic because their relationship is nearly non-existent.I was sitting next to Nate when Romeo walked inside the dining room. “Hey guys…! He greeted all of us, and his next question was, of course, “Where is Stella?”. I had to laugh because he was pretty obvious about his interest in my sister. “She went to have a picnic with Paige…” I said and the look on his face was priceless. His eyes almost popped out of their sockets.”OK, let me know when she gets back…” He patted Nate's back and headed towards the main table.After having a pleasant lunch with the guys, I went looking for Stella. I wanted to see how it went with Paige. I knocked
Stella POVMy head is pounding, and my heart is aching. I can't feel my wolf and my mind is drowning in an abyss of darkness.Paige, how could she? Her last confession made my blood freeze for an instant. I knew she would fight with me for his love, but trying to kill me was on another different level. If becoming an Omega was devastating, this would break me beyond repair.I have no idea what has happened to me, but the only thing I can feel is pain, emptiness, and sorrow. A warm feeling spread around my body and I felt some sort of relief. Where am I, and why can't I open my eyes? My lids seemed to be glued to each other.*****I have no idea how long I have been here, in this state. I wonder if Romeo is looking for me… I can't believe how much I miss him. I hear some faint noises and some faint herbal scents… they are soothing, but not to the extent that Romeo's
Stella POVI finally opened my eyes, I was lying on a mat on the floor. I have no idea where I was. I tried to search in my surroundings and find a clue as to where I was, but I couldn't put anything together. I tried to reach Leia, but she was a no-show. I was definitely inside a shack or cabin, with the trees peeking through the window, maybe in the middle of the forest.The door opened, and an old lady walked in. “Oh, dear! You are up…” She said.Her face was full of wrinkles, and she didn't seem to be a werewolf.“Yeah… What happened? Where am I?” my voice was shaking, and I was hesitant, not knowing if I should trust this lady.“Well, first you can trust me…” She laughed, it was as if she was reading my mind.“Excuse me?” I asked, trying to feign confusion.“Oh darling… you don't need to pretend with me… I am too old to waste my time
Romeo POVOur babies are three months old, and Stella has been doing wonderfully with motherhood. She is flourishing into her new roles, her role as Quen and her role as a brand-new mother.Ralph usually gives her more trouble than our sweet baby girl, Stormee. She is just like that, like a storm that takes time to brew, but when it hits you, it hits you fucking hard.I was lounging in my office going through some paperwork when Stella barged in. “Hey, Sweetie…” I lifted my eyebrows, and she sighed,She was silent, and I knew she wanted to discuss something important. “What is it?” I dropped the papers and realized she was biting her nails. This was not a good sign; it meant something was troubling her mind.“We need ground rules…” She blurted, and I squinted my eyebrows.“What?” I sighed. I had no context or ba
Romeo POVIt has been five months since we crossed forces with the darkness. My idea of setting up a council with every ruler as the head of their species was well received. We created treaties and laws that united our realms, and with the help of the Sisters of the Willow, we made a portal system that allowed our people to move back and forth.Morgan was a celebrity in the Dragon Realm. His technology expertise paid off, and now that the dragons had experienced technological advances, they were thrilled to learn more about it. That pushed him and Marcy to move to the Dragon Realm for a while. After all, we were their providers of the technology implemented in their realm. King David was the funniest, trying to video call everyone at all times. His daughter hatched two months ago, a gorgeous baby with purple eyes. The dragon's legends say the purple-eyed dragons were rare and blessed. I guess my pup got lucky on that one.
Stella POVWe managed to walk out of our room and headed to dinner. I was hoping to see everyone there, and I was sure not disappointed. Our table suddenly felt bigger, full of people and laughter. My heart warmed up, seeing the way our pack and friends had recovered from the massive attack we had endured.Everybody went silent as soon as we crossed the threshold of the dining hall. Rose's face lit up, and when our gazes crossed, I couldn't help but give her a broad smile. My eyes moved around, and my heart clenched when I saw Nate sitting in his wheelchair. It is unfair that such a fantastic person has to deal with that kind of recovery.My dearest Elemental elder friends were there as well. Eleanore, Everly, Elphaba, and Evangeline. I owe them everything.
Romeo POVIt was 3 weeks since the attack, all the visiting allied Alphas went back to their packs. They took the few casualties that they had, and everything was coming back to normal. Everything except my mate was still in the hospital, connected to wires with her eyes closed.The ladies of the Circle of the Willow decided to stay in my pack, waiting for Stella to wake up. King Aelfred and Kind David also stayed, but they sent their people back. Queen Sirena decided to take care of Stella personally. While King Vladimir returned to his kingdom, he said he would be back as soon as Paige and Eulisses´s baby was born, with Tatiana.I decided to stay at the hospital for as long as my mate was there. The staff had to pull an extra bed into Stella's guard to make my stay more comfortable. I couldn't part from her. I felt that the moment I walked out of that room, she would wake up, and I wanted to be the first face she
Stella POVDarkness was all I saw around me, I knew we had won, I felt at peace, and I was content with the life that I had lived. I was ready to meet my creator and to rest in peace. I let out a sigh, wishing I could have made it, but I also understood that certain sacrifices should be made for the greater good. So I was at peace.I heard a little giggle, and a white light blasted over me. I opened my eyes and realized that I was in a clearing, similar to where I was before, but there was no one around except me and a lady in a white dress.I walked towards the lady and I knew immediately that she was our Goddess. I guess I was in heaven. “My child, you did well… I am proud of you, you saved every species around, and for that, I am proud of you.” Selene said to me in a mellow and melodic voice.She sat on the ground facing the sky and I sat next to her. “You know that I bles
Paige POVShe blasted me. The fucking bitch blasted me with dark magic with full force. At that moment, I was thankful that Vladimir had asked me for an elf´s armor. Coral´s magic was slipping away from my body, not reaching me and not affecting me.I saw it in her eyes. She didn't know what was happening, she didn't understand the reach of white magic, and she was confused about what was protecting me. Beside the armor, the witches of the Circle of the Willow cast a blessing spell over me. No dark magic would be allowed to harm me, regardless of who cast it or how strong it was.I smiled at my ex-friend. “Oh, Coral, you wouldn't understand. Darkness is never stronger than light. Darkness corrupts everything, while light leads to a better path. You left darkness to consume you, and now you can't even see clearly what is happening around you.” I raised my eyes, looking at her completely dark ones. She gave me a look of co
Romeo POVIt was carnage, body parts flying everywhere, mostly from their creatures. Still, suddenly, we realized that even as we tore and tore flesh, the limp bodies on the ground started regenerating and attacking again. It was endless. Our injured warriors were removed from the field almost immediately.David left the fight and followed our sub-plan to protect Stella. We agreed to remove ourselves from the front and keep an eye on her. I felt her link open, and she whispered, “Honey, it is time. I love you.”“I love you, sweetheart. I will see you in a bit.” I told her, noticing the ground opening under us and demons crawling out. Shit, this is the worst-case scenario, these creatures are vicious, and our warriors are tired.Mariel POVI wanted to finish him, Romeo, the product of Remus' abuse of me, the reason why I couldn't leave that pack and have a happy life with my fated
Stella POVI was disappointed to feel Romeo closing in on me. I wanted to relax in his arms, but he refused and, with a tender kiss, walked away from me. I could feel his turmoil through our bond. I understand the way he feels, but he needs to give me some credit.Before I even had powers and my wolf, I was a good warrior and the best strategist, so he needed to start trusting me with my safety and the safety of my pups. I lay in bed trying to rest, but sleep never came. I tossed and turned until I placed my head over Romeo´spillow, which did the trick. Yes, I needed my mate close, and my pups also needed him, but he decided to leave us here.My selfish side wanted him near me at every single moment, while my rational side understood that he had a ton of things to check before the war. He wanted to be prepared and sure that we would be successful. Although my heart was hurting because I was in tune with my selfish side,
Romeo POVI dismissed the meeting, trying to wrap my head around what happened there. I want to keep Stella and my pups as far away as I can from the shitshow, and on the other hand, they twisted my arm into agreeing to have them as bait. I am torn and I don't know what to think about it.Stella is confident and wants to be part of everything, and I know for sure that she is capable enough, but still, my heart and my brain don't seem to agree on what to do. My heart and my wolf are pushing me to keep her safe and concealed from everything, while my brain is telling me that the best option to win this once and for all is to agree with Mother Ashia.Stella took my hand and gave me a small smile. She could feel my turmoil, and I, for once, was not trying to hide it from her. She needs to know that it has been the hardest decision I have had to make, and even if we agree on it, I am not sure about it.“H
