Rufus's POV After finishing my bath, I eagerly waited on the bed while Eclipse, my wolf, grew increasingly restless in my mind. Finally, Selena entered the room, wearing only a white towel wrapped around her body. The towel was quite short, stopping just above her thighs.At the sight of her radiant skin, my desires awakened.*Oh, come on man, what are you waiting for?* Eclipse asked.I quickly silenced him and scanned her entire body. We stood there, motionless, as our eyes locked onto each other."I'm... ready!" she gulped, finally speaking in a seductive voice that sent shivers down my spine.I got off the bed and approached her, my gaze piercing into hers. Slowly, I squeezed her nipple."Mhm," she moaned, trying to break eye contact, but I wouldn't let her. I held her face in place and forcefully pressed my lips against hers, the kiss lacking any gentleness.Our lips and tongues continued to intertwine in a passionate, hungry kiss, filled with flavor and intensity. The sound of o
Selena's POVAfter finishing the meal that Rufus or the housekeeper had prepared for me, I found myself unable to sleep. It was already 2 a.m. when I heard a strange noise coming from downstairs. Curiosity got the best of me, so I got out of bed and made my way downstairs.As I reached the stairs, I was surprised to see Ava, looking visibly annoyed, walking in and plopping down on the sofa without any regard for manners."Ava, what are you doing here?" I hurriedly descended the stairs in my slippers and nightgown.Ava slumped on the sofa, staring at the ceiling with a look of despair on her face, not bothering to answer me.Without her saying a word, I knew that our parents must have scolded her. Not only did she get into a fight with Williams, but she also made sure to leave her mark on him by scratching his face.I let out a sigh and said to myself, "Did Mom and Dad kick you out of the house for fighting with Williams?" I asked, and Ava nodded."Damn it!" I muttered under my breath
Selena's POVA grin spread across my face when I heard grandma's words."Yes!" I tucked my hair behind my ear. "He built and decorated a workspace for me."I replied joyfully."Should I be expecting my grand pup?" Grandma asked and I gasped.I noticed the twinkle in grandma's eyes and said bashfully, "Grandma...""Okay! No pressure. The most important thing is that he treats you well." Grandma patted my head.I couldn't help but smile and said earnestly: "Yes! He treats me very well."Even though Rufus was just pretending to marry me, he was really kind to me.Grandma nodded in relief.I lingered in the hospital for a few minutes and chatted with grandma before leaving.I embraced grandma before exiting the hospital. I took out my phone to call my new driver, Loki when a familiar figure appeared."Seli." Williams approached with a bouquet of flowers in his hand.Although the marks on his face had been treated, the bruises were still quite visible.I let out an exasperated sigh, "Seri
Rufus's POVWhen i return to the villa in the evening, Selena was not downstairs. I walked to the butler and asked about Selena."Is Selena at home?" I asked, to which the butler nodded and pointed towards the upstairs, saying, "The madam locked herself in her workplace as soon as she arrived."Nodding, I made my way upstairs. I knocked on the door of her room."Come in," her voice sounded.I entered the room and saw Selena seated on a chair, her fingers on her laptop. As she turned around and saw me, she greeted me with a smile. "You're back," she said.My throat moved, and a certain emotion stirred within my dark eyes. I responded with a low "hmm."Suddenly, Selena asked, "Are you hungry? I can get you something to eat!"I didn't respond immediately. Eventually, I replied casually, "I'm not hungry."She blinked, slightly perplexed, and asked, "Then what's the matter?""Nothing," I replied, pausing briefly before asking further, "You... don't have anything to tell me?
Writer's POV Selena couldn't believe it when she heard the word "apologies." She immediately spoke up, her voice filled with confidence, "There's no need for my sister to apologize.""You should know better than to interrupt when adults are speaking," Williams mother scoffed, her anger evident. She continued, "Look at the well-behaved children you've raised!"Mr. and Mrs. Habsburg remained composed, but hearing the Cobbler couple talk about their children in such a way was hard to bear."My children are well-behaved. If anyone needs a caution, it's your son. Do you think we don't know of what he did on the engagement day?" Mrs. Habsburg finally couldn't hold back her frustration."My son had something urgent to attend to. And let's not forget, he was ready to make amends, but no, your daughter was so strong head!" Mrs. Cobbler replied, her annoyance clearly showing in her voice. "Your daughter rejected him right away and brought a mere man to marry in front of everyone.
Writer's POV As the Cobbler family left, Selena let out a sigh and wiped her forehead, unknowingly standing in front of Rufus. Rufus glanced down at her long, straight black hair, noticing a few strands that were sticking up. He found it adorable and couldn't help but smile. He raised his hand to gently press them down. Selena felt a slight weight on her head and looked up at Rufus, her innocent eyes filled with confusion. Unaware of what she was thinking, Rufus's fingers continued to stroke her hair. The warmth of his touch on her scalp carried a subtle tenderness. Selena felt a fiery heat where he touched her and quickly lowered her head, trying to hide her panic. Why was he looking at her with such gentle eyes?! Unable to tolerate it any longer, Ava slapped Rufus's hand away, pulled Selena to her side, and ruffled her hair. Selena tilted her head and gave Ava a stern glare. Ava acted as if nothing had happened, looking away and raising her eyebrows provocatively at Rufus.
Selena's POvI had a really rough day at work today. I don't understand why those mean comments about me and Rufus affected me so much. If we were mates, I could blame it on the mate bond, but we're not. So why was I feeling so angry inside? Why were those comments getting to me?I let out a sigh as I entered my room and checked my phone again. The picture was still causing a stir and the ugly comments were multiplying. I started to feel more and more worried, anxious, or maybe just annoyed.I waited all night, but Rufus never came back. The night grew quiet and dark. I sat in front of my laptop, unable to concentrate. When I heard a car engine outside, I snapped out of my thoughts and rushed downstairs. I couldn't wait to see Rufus.As I reached the stairs, I came face to face with Rufus. We locked eyes for a moment, but neither of us said anything. Even though I had seen him earlier that morning, it felt like an eternity had passed. My heart felt heavy with a bitter feeling.Wha
Rufus's POV I finished freshening up and then put on my robe. I walked over to the bed to catch some sleep. Today was quite busy for me with the pack members and elders constantly asking about their Alpha.I can't reveal my true identity now to protect Selena. For the time being, I'm just the mysterious Alpha behind the hood. I let out a sigh as I tried to drift off to sleep, but then Eclipse started acting restless.*Rufus, I sense something is wrong with Selena. I can feel it,* Eclipse said, and I rolled my eyes.*Feel it? Selena is not our mate, Eclipse. How can you sense something is wrong with her?**Trust me on this one, Rufus,* Eclipse insisted, and I reluctantly agreed. If he called me by name, he must be serious.*Fine,* I grumbled as I got up from the bed.I had barely taken a few steps downstairs when Eclipse suddenly took over my body, running into the backyard woods.*Eclipse!* I tried to stop him, but he ignored me and stopped in front of the "ANCIENT BUI
Epilogue"My baby... Roo!"Selena was crying nonstop, and since this was a first for them, Rufus was at a loss for what to do.Is the baby already coming? Should i take her to the pack clinic by now?Selena stood there, legs apart, as if she was hesitant to let anyone near her."Selly... Come here. Come here," Roo said softly, moving closer and wrapping his arms around her."Rufus...!""Lillian, go get the pack doctor!" Rufus shouted, and Lillian rushed out to find help.Meanwhile, Selena continued to cry, tugging at Rufus's shirt, and suddenly, a sharp pain hit her like menstrual cramps, causing her to scream in agony."Argh!!!!"She clutched Rufus's shirt tightly, her nails digging into his chest."Rufus! It hurts. Moon goddess, please...!"Ignoring the pain she was causing him, Rufus quickly scooped her up, her weight not bothering him as he dashed into the room."This way, doctor."Lillian returned with one of the pack doctors.The doctor rushed in, ready to help."I'm so scared,"
Writer's POVThree Days LaterSelena let out a big yawn as she stretched her tired limbs. Suddenly, she opened her eyes and found Rufus staring right at her."You're awake! How are you feeling? Should I whip up some food for you, or do you want to freshen up first?" Rufus bombarded her with questions, leaving Selena unsure of how to respond.She closed her eyes and rubbed her forehead, feeling overwhelmed by everything he was asking.Selena exhaled deeply. "What actually happened? I can't remember anything..."Rufus settled on the edge of the bed, took her hand, and gently tapped the back of her palm. "Sweetheart, it's been three days since you fainted.""What?" Selena interrupted, her eyes going wide in disbelief."Shh! Thatâs not all," Rufus continued. "The pack doctor said you fainted because youâre pregnant... Defeating Nireus took a lot out of you."Selena blinked rapidly, as if she had just seen a ghost. "Pregnant? Defeat Nireus?!""Yes! You're pregnant!" Rufus said excitedly
Writer's POV "I get that you have every reason to doubt me, but you really need to believe me. Itâs only a matter of hours before Nireus and his men show up here," Issa said, locking eyes with Lillian. Both Lillian and Issa were trying hard to keep their feelings in check, but their eyes revealed a lot. "Thatâs not going to happen. Thereâs a barrier that keeps out anyone with bad intentions," Davies said, his teeth clenched. He hesitated for a moment, as if recalling something important. "But how did youâŚ" "Itâs because I came here peacefully and mean no harm," Issa interrupted, cutting off Davies. "You have to believe me, Lillian. Nireus has witches who can break that barrier," Issa insisted, her gaze still fixed on Lillian. Lillian took a deep breath and muttered, "Come with me..." "Lillian, I know sheâs your aunt, but you donât have to trust her..." "Sheâs not my aunt, Davies. Just go back to the border," Lillian replied, her voice tense. "Iâm not leaving you with her," D
Issa's POV As soon as I was out of Nireus' sight, I picked up my pace. Once I exited the big hall, I hurried to the horse stable. I glanced back to ensure no one was tailing me before I approached one of the horses and released it from its stall. "Letâs go..." I murmured as I mounted the horse.This was the first time in years that I had stepped outside the Red clan's territory, or maybe even out of Nireus' cage.Luckily, it was slightly bright. Maybe 2Am or 3AM.I had nearly forgotten how stunning it was out here.I gripped the reins tightly, racing past the trees and various clans.Before I left the Red clan, I had cast a spell on every path I took. It would be tough for Nireus to track me down.I looked up at the sky, catching a last glimpse of the stars as it slipped behind the clouds. The day was getting so bright,, and I was running out of time.Only a few hours remained unti the day finally brighten very welll, and I needed to find Lillian or the council of Werewolves to pr
Writer's POVMyrine looked absolutely stunning in her pink and creamy white dress. When she spotted Issa and Lord Nireus approaching, she paused her conversation with the other two and happily walked over to greet them.She wrapped her arms around Issa, exclaiming, "Issa, itâs so wonderful to have you back!"The two people Myrine had been talking to introduced themselves as Dares and his brother Chares. They seemed a bit distant and quickly found an excuse to leave."Greetings to you, my Lord." Myrine said before turning her attention back to Issa. "I noticed you were just chatting with Kleopatra and her husband," she said, fiddling with the beautiful heart-shaped pendant around her neck, "Iâm sure you remember who her husband is, right?""Of course I remember Aeson. I was only gone for a few years. My memory is still sharp," Issa replied with a shrug and a smile."I knew you would," Myrine laughed."They're here.""The rogue vampires and werewolves are here!" the crowd suddenly shout
Writer's POV Lord Nireus stood by his window, a glass of wine in hand, staring at the sky before his attention shifted to his wardrobe. "Come on, Issa," he said softly, tapping the wine glass with his finger.As if responding to his call, the wardrobe began to shake violently."Bless Lucifer," he whispered, a grin spreading across his face."Coming!" he nearly shouted, quickly placing the wine glass on the table. With a flick of his fingers, the wardrobe swung to the side.Taking a deep breath, Lord Nireus rubbed his palms together and pressed them against the wall, squeezing his eyes shut.Suddenly, the wall cracked open and swung back, and with a loud thud, a woman in that is naked tumbled out."Oh, my dearest Issa! Itâs wonderful to have you back. Together, we shall rule the universe!" Lord Nireus exclaimed, crouching beside her and gently caressing her face.Though Issa looked pale and weak, she managed a faint smile at his words.Seeing him after so many years only made Issa wa
Selena's POV I rested my head on Rufus's chest and asked, "What was the situation at the border?" He sighed, "It's being handled. Apparently, one of the Alphas was behind it.""Oh!" I mumbled, wishing things could just go back to how they used to be. I really didnât want this power."Williams was here," I swallowed and then added, "And I almost burn him to death," "That mother fu*ker was here?" Rufus growled lowly.I looked up at him shyly, my eyelashes fluttering, and a playful smile crept onto my face, making Rufus let out a low rumble from his chest.I didnât say anything, but I reached up and slipped my hands under his shirt, gently tracing my fingers over his defined abs. I wrapped my fingers around the back of his neck, pulling his lips closer to mine.Right then, I craved to taste him. I couldnât understand this intense desire that had taken over me, this urgent need to have him with me all the time.It wasnât like this when I was with Williams...*Ugh, Selly. Do you really
Writer's POV "Whatâs happening?" Edward asked when he spotted his cousin Rufus."There was a breach. The guards managed to take down a few of them, butâŚ""But what?" Edward pressed."A few of them found a way to sneak inâŚ" Rufus sighed heavily, rubbing his forehead."They canât stay here; Lillian will track them down," Davies pointed out."Plus, sheâs desperately trying to do just that, but we really need to keep our defenses up," Rufus replied. "I think you and Davies should check the inner area. Look for anything suspicious, search around the houses, and then regroup here later. Iâll go join Lillian and Selena on the border.""Cousin, youâre forgetting something important. You need to be with your mate," Edward argued. "Sheâs safer with you right now than anyone else, especially until she learns to control her powers.""Sheâs completely safe," Rufus insisted."You have no idea. Sheâs a white wolf, Cousin. There are plenty of people out there just waiting for a chance to capture her
Writer's POV Lord Nireus was standing on a high stage surrounded by the clamoring crowd. His remarkable position allowed him to have a clear view on everything on the open arena. The sound of weapons colliding sounded routinely from before him, and the sound of steel tearing steel was definitely more satisfying to Lord Nireus ears than any fine instrument could be. This is the biggest field in Reds tribe. In the field, there are just two men battling each another. One of them is tall, wearing dark covering, and his swordsmanship is exceptionally powerful. The less flashy fighter facing him had no elaborate armor, just a simple layer of rust-resistant fabric that matched the color of the ground. The only decoration was a bright lion's head emblazoned on his chest. His sword skills were also significantly stronger! Surprisingly, he was nearly a head shorter than the man across from him, yet he managed to overpower his opponent with sheer strength! As the duel started
