DAHLIA
Angel. Mylo has called me that a few times now, and I have to admit that every time I think of him I think of heavenly things too.
‘That’s because he is ours,’ Orla chimed in. She was finally at peace with our mate by our side and I couldn’t argue with her on anything after what I put her through. I was trying to stay guarded still around him, but every breath I took delivered his sweet apple scent to me. That little bit of cinnamon spice showing through his personality and his calming vanilla adding to the demise of any notion I had to keep my distance.
"Nora," Mylo confirmed her name after he asked about it, and I swear if heaven had a sound, it would be his voice.
Reviews and gems help alot! How is everyone feeling so far? I'd love to chat with you and see how you picture the characters! Find me on FB as mentioned in the Mylo book update 😀
MATOThe plans were made, we just didn’t have a date. Jazmin knew she’d never have much notice, but she was truly as sweet as she smelt, regardless of how her mouth makes her sound.It didn’t surprise me when it was Miah who called me, that girl was the true center of anything gossip-worthy and somehow always had news before everyone else. Marek had called me five minutes later, swearing before he hung up the phone after I told him I was already packing up.With Marek and Mazin's help, there was a house already set up for us with most of our important things already moved in. Jazmin's mother, Sophie, would have a spot at the care home less than two blocks away from us. That would be the hardest adjustment on Jazmin, but her mom's Alzheimers required someone who could care for her full time.
MYLOThe addition to the house, my house, was spacious enough that we wouldn't need to upgrade for a while, and when we did it would likely be to swap with my parents now that most of my siblings were older and starting to branch off into their own places."It's fully soundproof," I tell Dahlia as I set her bags down in the master bedroom, "you can keep Nora in her bassinet or there's a crib in that corner until you settle in. I'll have whatever you like brought to set up the nursery in the next room."Dahlia laid Nora down and tucked her hair behind her ear as she approached me, peaches and florals filling my senses as she spoke, “Thank you Mylo.” She visibly stiffened as my chest rumbled on its own and I struggled to keep Kai under control in her presence.
DAHLIA I had no clue what to expect once we got back to Timber, but I was happy when he left us here alone for a while, regardless of Orla trying to seduce him into staying. She barely got out a whimper, but that was enough to make him rip himself from our presence, and had I not had a better handle on her, she was sure to push him and his wolf over the edge. 'Go find our mate,' Orla whined, keeping me up as I tossed and turned even though Nora was sleeping better than she had in a long time. 'What don't you understand?' I hissed back at my wolf who was clearly not thinking straight, ‘What about Nora? You want a life with your mate, well I’m willing to give that up for her.’
MYLO The run did nothing. Absolutely, fucking, nothing. As soon as I entered the house her scent enveloped me and stirred up Kai all over again. I dismissed Alderic immediately, watching as she hesitated to turn around and face me. Seeing her with her back turned to me was even harder to resist, Kai imagined her as the perfect prey. Our little unsuspecting mate, with her golden hair, was swooped over one shoulder exposing her neck. What I wouldn't do right now to slide my hands down her sides and leave my mark on her neck. I could hear the echoes of the gasp she would make, the rush of pain that would be forgotten as the intense pleasure of it all would hit us. 'Mine.' I had to adjust myself before she turned arou
MYLO I still couldn't believe Dahlia was actually here. Being away from her was painful, but walking into the house and being surrounded by her scent was instantly calming. She was in the bedroom fixing Nora up for the day, unaware of just how beautiful she was as she pushed her hair behind her ear so it wouldn't get in her way. "Would you like to get out of the house for a bit?" I asked, setting some piece of cloth she asked for on the bed as she was changing Nora. "Doing what?" She skillfully wrapped the cloth around her and Nora, effectively holding Nora to her chest without the use of her hands. "A walk," I locked into her eyes that seemed more blue than green today and she nodded. We travelled down
DAHLIA Silly me, I thought this walk was about getting to know me and spending some time with me. Apparently, it was just to butter me up for information that Mylo wanted. Mylo tried to give me a rundown on his siblings, but once we entered the clearing trying to remember all of that became a task. The clearing was gorgeous, and a beautiful notion that I tried not to get too swept up in wishing would be part of Nora’s future. The way he confirmed he wanted an heir sent a familiar chill through me. I thought maybe I could expect more, but it was naive to think he was any more than tolerating Nora for my benefit. I was alone here, more so out in the middle of the forest in a spot where no one dared trespass, being so personal to th
MYLO “You’re perfect,” I tipped her chin up and revelled in her perfect features, “more than I imagined. More than I remembered.” ‘We have an incident at the east tower involving three trainees, one of which we’ve called the pack doctor for.’ I stepped back from Dahlia, feeling the anger pulse through me as Kai battled with me to stay. He could sense Dahlia lowering her defences with us, and to him, this was the perfect opportunity for us to mark her. I tried to remain calm as I stepped away from her so she wouldn’t misconstrue where my anger was being placed. I wanted to stay, but being Alpha meant there was more than one person who needed me at any given time, and as much as I wanted to mark Dahlia for my own at that moment, I also wanted it to be her c
DAHLIA I stretched out in bed as I woke up, careful to catch a glimpse of the rest of the best with my eyes half open first. Part of me always expected to find Mylo in here when I woke up, especially after the confusing turn of events last night. We had a moment, didn’t we? I could smell breakfast being made, but I could still practically taste his sweet breath pass over my lips and feel my desperation for him to kiss me, for him to claim me against all my reservations. For a moment, I thought he realized the only thing in the way was Nora, but the more I dwelled on it last night, the more it was obvious he was upset that he had to leave. He was so gentle with her when he left, and I wanted things to work out badly enough that I hope it isn’t clouding my judgement, but he’s been trying to make time for us, t
