Alasia's POV:
Here I was again, placed in this position where I was sitting there on the edge of this larger bed staring at, at that thing. That one thing that I had the experience of, ...! Even my thoughts did not want to finish 'the thought'. Was it so hard to say, even if it was in my mind about what I did earlier? That thing that I. What is wrong with my mind?! Why can I not say what I did with it? I guess I did not realize I was staring at it as he lowered his hand right in front of it and started to point upward. I almost jumped when I saw his hand and the look on his face."If I didn't know any better I would say you were a little distracted," Rameric said cunningly as I looked at him.I could tell that my cheeks got hot right then as he looked at me the way he did. "I am sorry, I...""You need not try to defend yourself to me," he said as he picked up the new set of bottoms and put one leg in them. Then, when he put his other leg in and pulled thRameric's POV If there was one way I knew how to help my mate relax, I would surely try to do just that. She looked at me while she was supported on her elbows as I held the back of her knees. At that moment, I slowly lowered myself until I was positioned on both knees. She watched my every move as I kept my focus on her facial expressions. I could tell that even though she did not make a sound, her lips were giving her away as if she did. I continued to look at her as I laid her knees down to the sides and I moved my body closer to her. My member flexed as it wanted to be released. It knew what I had in mind, but this time, it would have to wait. This was her turn to relax, not its turn. Every so gently, I moved my hands along her skin from the inner side of her knees, along the inner side of her thighs, and stopped just shy of the gentle folds of delicate skin. With the tips of my fingers, I dragged them along the edge of the delicate skin till I was right below her navel. I looke
Rameric's POV:She leaned into me, deepening the kiss. I could feel the passion coming from her as she turned her head to the side, moaning here and there. Suddenly, she swiftly pulled her head back away from mine as she inhaled sharply. She was almost to the point of needing to cough. I guess she needed a breath of fresh air. Then I thought about it. It may have been a bit hard for her to breathe with me sucking on her mouth the way I was. After she seemed to relax a bit more than before, she calmed down and laid back with her head again on my padded slumber. With her staring up at me, she looked like she was more relaxed than I had seen her so far this evening. I looked down under me and noticed that she was still completely bare. I was only wearing the bottoms I had put on earlier. I could tell that my member was still flexing and wanting to be set free. "Are you alright?" I asked her softly, as I wanted to make sure she had sufficiently caught her brea
Alasia's POV:I continued to lay there on Rameric's arm as I slowly drifted off. He was right after all. I did need to stop overthinking about everything that happened to me and get some rest. I guess I could rest a bit more soundly tonight as I did not have to worry about Brazen being in the hands of that man whom I used to call my stepfather. I know what he was like when I was around, so there was no telling what else happened to Brazen after I was not there to help protect him anymore. Or, at least for the last few days while I was not there. As I lay there with my eyes closed, I thought about what Rameric had done earlier for me and how he was just trying to help me relax. It was hard for me to relax after all. After everything that I have been through, it was honestly hard to even do that. At least I knew Brazen was going to be safe, so that helped some.Before I knew it, I was dreaming some strange sleep dream. The next thing I realized was that I was sit
Alasia's POV:What just happened to me? What did I just experience? Was any of that real?! Or, could that have been another vision that was playing a trick on my mind? Well, it could have been just a bad sleep dream, couldn't it? I looked around the room and I could tell that I was in the same room that I knew Rameric had laid down with me earlier. What is happening to me?"Alasia, are you alright?" Rameric suddenly asked me as he sat up and pulled me closer to him by putting me across his lap. "What happened? You screamed. You know, you can tell me anything."I looked at him directly and tried to speak. I tried to open my mouth so I could tell him what I had just seen, but for some reason, I could not do it. I could not believe that I could not tell him what I had just seen. Why was I not able to tell him my vision? I could not even mention the fact that I had a vision! "I can't," I said suddenly, full of fear, as I could not speak about it."You c
Alasia's POV:I continued to lie there scared, not knowing what to do. Why was I placed in this kind of position? To which I would have to kill the only person who was ever nice to me. The only person who ever meant anything to me other than Brazen. The only person who did what was necessary so that I knew I was safe. My stepfather never did anything like that for me. The only thing he did was flaunt me in front of his cousin, Bo. My mother was the only other person that seemed to care, but she was no longer living. She left me all those years ago to put up with my stepfather all while watching out for my little brother. In a way, I hated her for leaving, as I did not know why she left us. I still loved her dearly and yet, I miss her more than anything. I was so upset at everything, I did not bother to stop the tears as they ran steadily from my eyes. I was looking to the side and could tell they were starting to make a small puddle in the center of Rameric's ch
Rameric's POV:Once we were changed and ready for the morning's roast, I took the hand of my mate and led her out of the room. She looked quite elegant, and her garment admired the shade of her eyes that glowed whenever she looked at me with a certain expression. I am sure she could see my eyes glowing in a similar manner. We headed down the corridor and as I approached the corner, Galien walked around it just before us."Good day to you, Alpha Caine," he greeted me. "If you have a moment, there is something that I need to discuss.""Does this have anything to do with the conversation we had last night before that unexpected postponement," I said, making sure I chose my words carefully so as to not upset my mate standing there at my side. "What happened last night was unfortunate, however, this has to do with it and yet it doesn't, "Galien said in an unsure tone. "Is this something that we can discuss during the morning roast?" I asked him. I could hear a
Rameric's POV:I had to say, I ate a lot of what was provided at that morning's roast. My mate, on the other hand, barely ate anything as she mainly picked through what I placed on her plate. I would even offer her to take another bite of something, and she would kindly take it from me, nibble on it, and then set most of it back down on the plate again along with everything else in front of her. When Raiven had one of my Warriors retrieve some of the fresh spring water, she did seem to drink that though. Plenty of it to be exact, as I believe she was on her third glass by the end of the meal. I even looked over at Raiven several times as we both shared a look at her, although she did not seem to notice as her gaze was mostly down. He had that sorrowful look on his face as well as I felt about it. We both knew something was going on but not exactly what. I am not sure if it had anything to do with what happened last night or before we both laid down to rest. I just
Alasia's POV:That was the last thing I was expecting. I knew he had the ability to turn into a wolf, but for him to do it right here in front of us after he made that statement took me by surprise. I watched him, and I was astonished that his wolf could change like that at any time. Did he want to change like that or, as Rameric put it before, was it his wolf that wanted to change? His wolf jumped a great distance as it cleared all of the steps leading up to where we were standing. When he landed, there was even a small cloud of dust that let me know just how hard his wolf landed. It did not seem to bother his wolf as he headed off toward the trees where I saw other wolves already waiting."Shall we get going?" Rameric asked me as he pulled me from his side to now be standing in front of him.Even though he was seemingly in a hurry, he still waited for my response before he did anything. After a moment of thinking to myself, I looked up at him and nodded. At the
