Wicked lover Chapter 24 Prelude to the night
After what happened, they gave her an entire week off, allowing her to leave and do whatever she wanted in order so that she could cool off and relax. They even provided her an allowance for the whole time she’d be gone.It seems they had forgotten she had no other place to go, leaving her with no choice but to return to her aunt’s home. She didn’t want to waste her money to stay in some hostel, somewhere.It would have been all good, if not for that one reminder the head maid told her, which she couldn’t get out of her mind.‘Don’t come back until we call you.’These words repeatedly whispered through her thoughts, lingering within the depths of her subconscious, curious and baffled by the reason the woman would say this. But in the end, she did not have the courage to ask.Before leaving, she tried searching for Duncan because of the voice at the back of her head, telling her to at least say goodbye and inform him of her whereabouts. But only Julieta faced her, telling her she did n
Wicked lover Chapter 25 Take a peek
Penelope’s smile reached to her ear, radiating such a joyous shine it could blind. Of course, she remained unaware of it, even though she was looking at herself in front of the large, oval mirror. She stops brushing her hair, hearing the doorknob rattling. She immediately turns her gaze towards the door when she heard it creak open. An old woman peaked from the entrance, her creasing forehead became more prominent, noticing Pen’s expression. Though walking shakily, she kept her dominant composure even if she was hunching and her steps slow. Penelope straighten, shifting her body to turn to her, along with putting on a straight face. She flinches from the sudden thud of the woman’s cane on the floor, swallowing hard when her heart beat nearly stops from the sound getting closer. “It’s late. Why aren’t you asleep?” The elder’s eyes squinted while scouring parts of her room. “I’m still drying my hair, grandma.” Pen put on her sweetest smile before returning her sights to the mi
Wicked lover Chapter 26 A curse?
Aunt Pen turned quiet the rest of the day, ending Selene’s probing. There was no mention of it at all, as every time the subject was brought up, Penelope Hallow would outright disregard and change the topic in an instant.It became clear the woman didn’t want to talk about it. But what Selene can’t understand was how much one simple name could rattle her aunt like that. Especially since she hasn’t even mentioned what exactly it was she’d seen in her visions.This only spark an uncontrolled curiosity towards her, sensing the incident she saw had something to do with what was going on in there.Yet she cannot bring herself to ask it straight up, still understanding so little just from that premonition she received.This left her pondering once more, not knowing how to interpret or explain all those things that plagued her mind.So right now, all she could do was stare at her aunt Pen, while she scrub, bakes, and chatter tirelessly all at the same time, without even bothering to face h
Wicked lover Chapter 27 Follow your nose
In a race against the setting sun, Selene ran as fast as she can the moment she stepped out of the bus. She was gasping when she finally arrived at the Vondeer’s manor, sweating like crazy, as she stopped to catch her breath. After taking a stone path, she pauses near a clearing. She scanned the surroundings, checking if there were any guards lurking around. Thankfully, there wasn’t any at that time, same as when she left. She quickly moves to the nearby bushes to hide before fishing out the piece of paper from her pockets. It was the one Lucas gave her. She traced a finger on the map to let her eyes scan it faster. “All right, I can do this.” She says after taking in a deep breath. Though she didn’t understand the purpose and reason for the stuff written there, she did not dare question it, since she did not know anything about the paranormal stuffs she was dealing with. All she could do was trust Lucas’ words regarding her aunt’s the medicine. From there, she headed to her left
Wicked lover Chapter 28 An assault
Discipline, concentration, and vigilance, these were the things Duncan followed for the past few years, not wanting to make the same mistake again. After his blunder, he had vowed never to end up in the same situation as before.And so, right now, he remains secluded in the depths of the old mansion. Locked up underneath the deepest part of it, a place he considered his sanctuary, safe from any kind of uncontrolled urges the time of the year brings.Of course, this was not enough, as he needed to calm himself, as the season brought extreme pain to those who tried to fight off their impulses and were unmated.That was why he continued throwing punches, clawing, and kicking the piece of tree trunk in front of him, pouring every ounce of strength he and energy he had in him. He wanted to exhaust himself completely in order to subdue those wild and carnal cravings.He survived the last few years, even though it was sheer torture. He was certain he’d do it again, or so he thought until hi
Wicked lover Chapter 29 A taste
Weakened, gasping for air, and nearly unconscious, Selene continued to force herself to move, aware she needed to do something or at least explain herself. Thoughts plagued her when she had trouble moving.She didn’t expect her legs to suddenly lose it strength, after catching a waft of that strong wooden and chocolaty aroma. But what confused her was the sudden jolt inside her after taking in that decadent scent.‘Did she get poisoned? Did she trigger a trap of some kind?’These were just a few of the things running through her mind moments after falling on the ground, especially since this all happened when she inhaled more of the alluring aroma within the room.It was also the closest explanation she could think of, after her body had suddenly become riddled with an unknown tingling sensation, accompanied by an intense fiery heat that emerge from deep inside of her.The only thing confusing her was the fact she was having an immense sense of pleasure and need rushing through every
Wicked lover Chapter 30 After thought
Daze and light-headed. It took a few minutes before Selene’s senses returned. When she came to, everything was silent. Though tired and weak, she forced herself to look around, hoping to make out what had happened.She realized she was now all alone in that dimly lit room, after not seeing any trace of Duncan anywhere.‘Was it all just a dream?’ she thought, but then the icy touch of the room’s cold air creep all over her. It brought a sudden ache all over her body, reminding her of all those odd movements she’d done a while ago while being at the mercy of the young alpha.Thinking about it only sent another wave of those delectable bolts all over her, making her whimper in need and craving.Again, the voices inside her head emerge, searching for Duncan’s warm and sensual touch, aching to for those salacious fingers between her legs, and wanting to have the heat of his tongue on her skin. Her subconscious begged for that unfamiliar and mind blowing sensation that the young man had gi
Wicked lover Chapter 31 Omens
Teeth grinding, Duncan continued mumbling and cursing underneath his breath, all the while looking out the window.Thankfully, he escaped his predicament out of sheer luck.He couldn’t believe he’d lose himself like that. Still unable to comprehend how a mere human can cause him to react that way.Puzzled, he closed his eyes, recollecting all the things that have happened, searching for any clue that could give him an explanation.It all started when Duncan’s territorial instincts kicked in. Hearing some footsteps along with the smell of another male sent Duncan into a wild and daze frenzy, ready to kill for being bothered like that.Without a thought, he rushes through the hallway, accidentally clawing into a barrel. The liquid in it spilled on him, and that brought about a flash of reason into him, yet his rage stayed because of being disturbed while in the middle of a mating.He continued charging, increasing his speed with each second as he shifted into his beast form, ready to ri

Wicked lover Chapter 52 Side effects
The stillness of the house and the silence that came with it only made Duncan’s mind go into a frenzy. His body aching, itching, and twitching from the turmoil within him. A part of him still resisted, thanks to the last words of his beta Ben, but this was not enough to stop the unrest inside of him.His hands, inkling to touch, his lips, craving for affection, his skin, needing warmth from another, and his manhood ached to be caressed, licked, and dipped into a female’s slippery crevice.His head was basically floating at the time. As he walked down the stairs, memories of those carnal feelings rushed through him.Duncan was panting from all the images flashing through his mind, along with echoes of familiar moans, whimpers, and screams of ecstasy.He was losing balance from the feverish heat consuming him, his vision blurred, and his face covered with streams of sweat. And all of this w
Wicked lover Chapter 51 Falling and failing
Though they were already at the mansion, Duncan’s rage would not subside. The itching of his teeth and claw remained, needing to dig into flesh, particularly Lucas’.If it wasn’t for Ben, he would have gone full on feral on the other alpha, having that raging need to kill. It was only when his beta intervened and received the brunt of his anger did he finally returned to his senses.“Sorry about that, Ben.”He murmured, his eyes traversing the large gash stemming from his beta’s right shoulder, going all the way down to his left hip. The slash was deep, fresh, and bleeding, unable to heal because he was the one who made it. Even underneath the bandage covering it, the trail and size of the wound were visible.“It’s alright alpha. The doctor said I should be okay in a week or so.”Ben wince with each word, yet he still forced a smile.“I don’t know what came over me. I… I just lost control.”Duncan palmed his face, wiping the sweat that covered it. He couldn’t understand why he went all
Wicked lover Chapter 50 Advantage or drawback
Weeks have passed since the incident, yet the memory of the clash between Duncan and Lucas’ group. The sight of blood, gash, and claws swiping sent chills up Selene’s spine. It reminded her of a premonition she had long ago.“You still shaken up after what happened?”Lucas gave her a gentle nudge, noticing how she was spacing out while trembling in that warm breeze.They were currently walking through the woods, with Lucas and Selene being in front, while the others stayed a few feet away from them.Selene forced a smile, trying to hide her concern.“I didn’t think Duncan would do that.”She swallowed hard, remembering the blood thirst in the young man’s eyes. Throughout her stay with them, she’d seen him angry, but never like that, which made her wonder what could have been the cause of it.Though there was certainly fear in her, it kept getting overpowered by a lingering sense of worry and longing. She couldn’t understand why’d she feel that way, especially since she knew they didn’
Wicked lover Chapter 49 Triggered
“Alpha, can we take a rest? We’ve been running around the entire town for days now.”Ben grumbled. His phasing slowed, no longer having the energy or strength to keep up with Duncan.The young beta was a few meters behind, but didn’t bother to speed up, as he was losing air, nearly reaching his limit.“Don’t ask, just keep going.”Dunca says, increasing his strides as they continued on. He was scared he’d get consumed by the turmoil inside of him the moment he stops.“I don’t understand how we’re going to find the culprit by doing this?”Ben, no longer wanting to continue, was now thinking of ways to escape.“Just stop whining and keep up.”Duncan grumbled.It’s true they weren’t going to catch anyone with what they were doing, but he didn’t care. Because his real reason for aimlessly moving is because he wanted to remove the heat, adrenaline, and tension he had inside.He thought he’d be okay if he tire himself out, as he had done it before, but this was not the case now, as each tim
Wicked lover Chapter 48 Wake up call
There was this odd sense in Selene’s chest all throughout the day, making her nervous. Though she couldn’t grasp what it was exactly that was causing it.Deep in thought, while walking through their school’s corridor, she hardly took notice of the shouts behind her, until she felt a strong arm holding on to her shoulders.That brought her back to her senses, immediately making her eyes widened from the unsuspecting touch.“Lucas.”She blurted out, surprised to see the fellow with his group following close.“Hey, Selene, is everything okay with you?”Lucas’s brows furrowed, though he had a smile on his face. Worry can be seen etched all over it.Selene avoided his gaze, tucking a piece of hair to her ear while she bit her lip from embarrassment. It’s been so long since the last time she’d space out, she found it awkward.“Yes, I just feel weird somehow.”She swallowed hard, still having that odd dread crawling into her.This made Luca’s expression straighten, as he grabbed hold of Sele
Wicked lover Chapter 47 Devious
“Idiots! I leave for a few days and this is what I return to.”Alpha James roared, the sound of his fist slamming on the table echoing throughout the entire hall.But Duncan kept his straight face, holding on to the emotions that were trying to escape him. There was anger, fear, and anxiety all brewing inside of him at that moment. Yet, he remained steadfast to hide all of it from his father.Alpha James Vondeer’s expression twisted so much he looked like he was shifting into his werewolf form. The sound of his fist slamming on the table echoed through the halls, causing all the others who were present to tremble in fear.“We don’t know what happened, alpha.”One of the beta muttered, noticing how their leader’s face continued to turn red from the silence.“Fools!”A deafening howl came out from alpha James, making a lot of them flinch. Yet Duncan remained stoic, unfazed by all the commotion. That was why the elder’s brows twitch upon seeing his emotionless expression.“And you! What
Wicked lover Chapter 46 More secrets
Selene’s feet move on its own. In a trance, she followed those inaudible voices down that damp, dark staircase.Though her eyes couldn’t see anything, her mind distinguished the surroundings, like a third sight, allowing her to walk without a problem.A faint purple light glowed at the end of the stairs, giving this odd creeping sensation onto her skin. She got goosebumps with each step she draws closer.It’s as if she was stuck in a dream, screaming for help, aware but unable to do anything. Tears and sweat streamed down her face as terror crawled at her.No matter what she did, she couldn’t fight off the pull of those whispers, so helpless that she couldn’t even let out a word.As she got closer to the end of the steps, the voices became clearer, louder, and the light throb, letting out an eerie vibrating sound.When she finally reached the bottom, her fears and worries were replaced by curiosity and confusion, seeing the large empty room. The only thing odd there is the weird carvi
Wicked lover Chapter 45 A sign and a trail
Selene was woken by the head maid and, after being given her clothes, was immediately escorted out of the hut, straight to the woman’s car. Like before, she obediently followed, but her eyes wandered, searching for Duncan the minute they got out.A pang of sadness sunk into her chest when the man was nowhere to be found. There was this odd sense of loneliness and yearning in her, wanting to at least catch a glimpse of the young alpha.A part of her wanted to comfort him. After hearing about his woes and anger, she began to understand the reason behind the alpha’s demeanor.Of course, she couldn’t voice this out with the fear of being questioned by the head maid. So though it pained her, she remained silent, reminding herself she had no place or right to ask.The remaining drive back to Silent Ridge peak was eerily quiet, with Selene keeping her head low, unable to say anything, while Julieta stayed with a poker face the entire time, her anger visible underneath her composed and stoned
Wicked lover Chapter 44 Resolve and reasons
Julieta arrives only minutes after her alpha’s summons. That was why she was in deep surprise at the sight of his master.The young alpha sat outside the hut, embracing himself, all the while mumbling something. His gaze, though sharp, had this glint of uncertainty and worry.Julieta’s frown deepened, noticing this. It was so unlike the youngster to be so pre-occupied to the point he didn’t see her parking nearby. Curious, she gets out of the car without saying a word, hurrying towards the young man.It was only when Duncan sensed the head maid that his expression immediately changed, returning to that emotionless and domineering look.“What took you so long?”He grumbled, throwing sharp glances at the woman.Julieta was keen to bow to show her respect and submission.“Apologies, alpha, I got tangled up with an earlier task.”She states, reminding the youngster of his previous command to her.Duncan let out a deep and disgruntled sigh, lips pursing to keep his annoyance at bay. He cou
