Logan I jolt awake as an ear-piercing scream shatters the silence. Artemisia is clawing onto the bed sheets as Matthew is already leaning over her, trying to calm her down. “Baby, what’s wrong?” I ask her, trying to take her face into my hands but as soon as I touch her she screams again. Fuck.
Artemisia I wake up feeling like I got hit by a bus running at full speed. Peeling my eyes open, I think I must be hallucinating as his mouth-watering scent invades my senses. Turning in his strong arms, I find myself in the embrace of Fynn, who is still sleeping peacefully. I rub my eyes, thinki
Artemisia My plans of accepting the job offer of Mr. Davies get disrupted as I help organise the ball along with Cayden as well as the excursion with the pups. I hum as Logan’s confession keeps me in a good mood, and I actually look forward to going to the ball with Fynn, even if it means that it
Artemisia “Missy?” I stop biting the nail of my thumb as Astrid calls me, tearing me out of my thoughts. “Huh?” “Are you alright, dear?” She asks me as she leans into my line of sight. I realise where I am, looking around me lost as I look for my files. “Yeah, yeah. Sorry. I was pensive because
“Perfect!” Gregorius claps his hands before he shakes me by grabbing my shoulders. “Good job, Ms. Beta.” I smile, trying to keep my balance. “Thank you!” He nods happily, before walking out and Fynn is about to follow him as I step aside, wondering what the hell got into me. “Fynn!” I call out a
Artemisia He growls annoyed, even if it nearly seems like he is trying to cover a purr. I giggle as I step out of the hut. “Now, if you could mind-link Logan or Matthew, I would need someone carrying me for real.” He rolls his eyes as he closes the door behind us, and I’m just waiting for his eye
Which he shares with a bunch of other wolves, so who even cares? His glare is still locked on me as I look back between the two and laugh awkwardly, “Oh, erm… My shoes were killing me, so he carried me.” Rage flashes on his face as I wind myself in his arms, making him let go of me, “Sorry, I can
Artemisia “One, two, three… Would you please hold still?” Lisa and I chuckle as we watch Celeste count the pups that can’t seem to hold still.“They are so cute,” I say, pushing myself off the small bus that we are leaning on. Lisa is still biting on a straw from the juices we just drank. “Terrib
Ace - PresentThe constant, mechanical beeping gets me to open my eyes, peeling them open groggily. My gaze falls onto Emma, who is holding the railing of my bed, smiling. “Oh no, I died,” I groan, my voice coming out as a raspy moan. She giggles, getting me to smile tired as well. “No, you didn’
Emma reaches me on the platform and only the Goddess knows why, driven by the fear that by the reckless behaviour of my father she could get the wrong idea and hurt herself by touching me, I turn around, grabbing her arm that she is holding out to me. “Em,” my whisper joins her hiss as I already pu
*** “I have changed my mind. I’m not going to be Alpha for this pack.” Cayden arches his brow, throwing the papers he was just checking on his desk. “I beg your pardon?” “I’m withdrawing my name from the aspirants as the future Alpha of this pack,” I repeat, rolling back my shoulders to withstand
Ace - Five Years AgoDays pass and the love we felt for each other slowly transforms into anger and fear. The more I try to spend my time with Emma or force myself and her to be together, the more the voice in my head mocks me. And the more I hurt her. Slowly, I realized that I was not able to to
I’ll finally be able to make her my Luna, and I can’t wait to have things settled officially. As Cayden finally lets me off my leash in the evening, I feel excited like I have never been. Running up to the quarters that I share with my twin, I open the door with a smile that is nearly hurting my f
Ace - Five Years ago “Hey.” I lean against the door frame, watching Emma colouring with Serena. “Ace!” Serena calls out happily, throwing her hands up. I laugh, pushing myself off the frame. “Hey, Sese. What are you doing? Having fun?” “We are colouring,” she answers proudly, making my smile gro
I kiss her cheek, whispering. “It’s too much. Let me—” “No.” She shakes her head, increasing her grip. “I can take it, please. Just…continue...” Her breathy voice is as worrying as it is insanely sexy, and I close my eyes shortly, stopping the shiver wafting through me. “Okay.” Kissing her again
Ace - Five Years Ago My heart sings as she gasps cutely, opening her mouth for me to invade it with my tongue. I risk losing myself in our kiss as she tastes addictingly good. Even with all the times I have kissed her, she tastes better every time and it inebriates my senses increasingly intensely
Emma. *** Ace - 5 years ago I observe Emma as she stares in awe, a happy smile plastered on her face. She inspects the many little colourful lights that are hanging from the ceiling of our treehouse and honestly, I am glad she likes them so much because it took me hours to put them up. I scoot
