It's been a month since that day Gideon and I crossed the boundaries and became one. I don't regret ever having that passionate night with him. It has become a tradition since then.I spend my day training and reading the piles of books then at night, Gideon would accompany me in my cabin. We have been making love on a daily basis. It's like we can't get enough of each other.Gideon has made sure to keep Adina out of my way and that bitch has been silent, too silent I am starting to think she is plotting something.But then again, I don't have to worry. Gideon has his eyes and ears trained on her. She is the one to lead him to discovering what dirty secrets and plots the Strongholm family has been planning.Ever since I found out about my secret identity and my true identity, I was warned to never shift in front of people.But scar has been bugging me lately. She wants to be let loose and have a run.Back at Logan's pack, I would sneak out in the middle of the night and shift to my be
I was still standing by the side of the River, still staring into the place where the lady was standing just a minute ago.I was deep in thought, my mind trying to digest the words that left her mouth.She was the one who rescued me and sent me to my former pack? But where have she been hiding for the last three years?She seemed familiar with me, like she knew me for some time.Her words again confirmed what Devin and Naver told me about. She knew I was the gifted one to fight the Dark Lord.She also said that there was someone after my life in the kingdom?But who? Did she mean Adina? Apart from Adina Strongholm, I don't think there someone else who would want me dead.I was lost in thoughts and did not hear Gideon make his way to me.His arms snaked around my waist as his intoxicating scent overshadowed my senses.I felt it, making me gasp." Gideon! I felt it!" I exclaimed happily." Feel what?" Gideon sounded clueless of what I was talking about." The tingles!" I said just as S
I struggled to open my eyes but I felt this nagging need to drink some water. I guess that's what awoke me in the first place.My heavy eyelids fluttered open and I finally opened my eyes, taking in the environment around me. A second to my survey told me that I was back in the castle and in Gideon's chamber to be precise.My eyes moved to the bedside table near me and a glass of water was sitting there.With my shaky hands, I reached for the glass but my grip was not tight making the glass slip past my hands.The shattering of glass echoed in the room and that's when the door was pushed open, revealing Gideon in all his glory.He had a panicked expression on his face as he strode to me.I smiled at him and he smiled back." You are finally awake." It was more of a comment than a question. I nodded my head." Trying to get some water?" He Inquired and I nodded." Let me help you." He offered and I smiled in return.Gideon retrieved another glass before filing it with water and present
My heart was thumping loudly as I kept racing through the woods." Don't let her escape." I heard their voices. They were fast approaching.I could not let them catch me, not today so I kept racing.I was exceptionally fast for a human.I stumbled and fell down, my body rolling on the ground severally before I managed to stop.Picking myself up, I ignored the pain in my whole body as I continued to escape.Three men were following me, determined to catch me but I was determined to not be caught, not when I saw them slaughter one of our own.I was just about to cross a stream when a red cloak flashed past me.Something Inside me told me to halt and observe and I did just that.My eyes turned to look at the person who had her whole body covered with a red cloak.She stood there as she waited for them and soon enough they caught up with me, only that this time, they didn't dare approach me." Hunting for something?" The person covered with a cloak asked and it's then I realised that it w
Gideon POVTo say my mate's response to my touch surprised me would be an understatement. I was taken aback and hurt. I won't deny that part.It felt like she was disgusted by my touch or something…or more like she was afraid of me. But why would Maya be scared of me? It made little to no sense at all.I know when I left her in the afternoon, she was pissed with me, but I did not expect her anger to escalate to this.“ At least wake up from the icy floor. You might get sick from the coldness.” Ignoring the ache in my heart, I said.The marble floor was cold and, given that she was only wrapping a towel around her body, she could get sick.That would be bad for her health and our baby's.I have not told Maya about her pregnancy. I don't know how to break the news to her because we discussed nothing to do with children before.We have failed to consider that consequence when we made love.I don't regret having a baby with my mate and even though I have not shown it yet, I am happy.Maya
My heart felt like it would pop out of my rib cage. I felt crushed by Maya's accusations, but wait… Where did she hear that crap from?I am sure only one person harbors such rumors and the mere thought of her having met Maya made my heart run cold.“ She told you, didn't she?” I asked, my eyes trained on her.I did not want to miss a single expression on my mate's face.Her sweet scent that always makes me think about honey filling my nose was messing with me.Oh god, did she know what effect she had on me?Despite wanting to get angry and storm out of this room, I could not bear to do that. I could not bear to leave her side.Maya was like a drug to me, a drug that had me addicted to it, I could no longer live without her. That was confirmed.Even when I would leave for a few hours, my thoughts would always run to her. That's how whipped I was." Does it matter who told me, Gideon?” She asked, a lone tear escaping her right eye as it cascaded down her cheek.She closed her eyes and
I pulled him when he turned to walk away. Hearing his story, I didn't know whether to be happy or mad at him. I know for a fact that I can't judge Gideon for his past, just like I would not appreciate it if he meddles in mine.Even with the disarray of emotions, I was thankful for one thing; he was mine now.Claiming his lips, our tongues fought as they sought dominance. I gave up, allowing Gideon to plunge his tongue into my mouth, exploring and tasting every nook of my mouth.I smiled into the kiss, glad that Gideon was as eager as I was to feel me.My naughty hands crept their way to his nether region, cupping his manhood which twitched in my hands. He was already hard; hard just for me and that fact alone gratified me.Pulling away, I nested my forehead on his own, our hot breath mingling.“ Show me, Gideon, show me that I am your world.” I breathed out, needly.Gideon pulled away, his hands cupping my cheeks as he made me look into his eyes.His blue orbs were painted with desir
Gideon has been overly protective about me ever since he learnt that I am pregnant.He intended to keep the news among his trusted people but after a serious discussion,we decided against it.Living in fear of what would happen next is not something I want for our child and I made sure Gideon understood that.So we decided to announce to the whole kingdom the news of the king expecting his heir.While the people deserved to know, we would use that as a bait to lure Avery into our trap.I have a feeling that she is plotting something and whatever it is, it's a big thing.Samantha agreed with me on that so the plan was set to motion.Gideon did not forget to break the engagement between him and the Strongholm family Using my pregnancy as a leverage, he managed to convince the council about taking me as his Queen.When they saw that I bore Gideon's mark, they had nothing more to oppose.Devin gave me a bracelet that would prevent any dark magic from working on me.We have also been prac
