~Noah~ Sebastien and I linked each other to determine who would be the one to disclose Uncle Andrew's insinuations to our father. To prevent our father from sensing any unease, I chose to be the one to speak up. "Uncle Andrew told us some weird stuff about people wanting to take our positions in the East, so we called him home so we could investigate and strategise," I said, and he frowned. My father never trusted Uncle Andrew, so it was normal for him to frown at the mention of his name. "And why didn't he tell you all you need to know?" He asked, and I shrugged. "It was as if the party wasn't the right venue for the discussion," I said. "Then you should have waited and spent the night in Brentwood so he could speak to you extensively on the matter," he said, and I looked at Sebastian. "I see," My father said, understanding the issue. "I find Ashely's behaviour odd. If she doesn't want the Moses guy, she should just say it and stop wasting everyone's time. I forbid you two from
~Winter~ I knew Noah and Sebastien would do anything not to spend time with their father. I could tell their relationship from how they acted toward him in the garden. Telling them to go and that we would go home when we were done left them no room to avoid their father. Also, I knew Mary and Joyce were out to get Summer and me, so it would be wise to remain ahead of them. I went to the office and found Mary on the computer. She shook when she saw me, and I smiled. "You won't find any evidence to burn on that computer. I wasn't born yesterday, you know," I said, winking at her. I looked at where the liquor was in the office, and for the first time, I did not feel the need to reach for the bottle. I was at peace. I guess the thought of saying goodbye and ending things with Noah never sat well with me, no matter how I tried to fool myself, but I was glad we had crossed that bridge. The thought of having a second chance mate, was thrilling. I thought of the things Brandon sa
~Winter~ I opened the wardrobe and remembered what Noah had told me about moving in with him. I knew saying no wasn't an option. Seeing how their parents had embraced us, I knew it was a done deal. But I don't know how I would tell Chelsea, and she wouldn't freak out. "Do you like this room?" I asked Chelsea, and she smiled. "It is pure luxury, Winter. I swear we are lucky to have moved to Mountain," She said, and I nodded. "It is yours," I said, and she frowned. "Mine? Can you do that? Where will you sleep?" She asked, and then her smile dropped. "Are you leaving? You can't leave us with these people. They will make our lives hell, especially mine. We need you. The children need you. Besides, where will you go? We have nothing out there," She said, and I shook my head. "No one can make your life hell. Besides, you will be seventeen in a few months. One more year, and you are free to do whatever you like," I said, but she did not smile. "I am not leaving you here; I am just movi
~Winter~ Lady Amelia blew us away with her kindness. It was a rare experience. How she stood up for us and handled the issue made me feel proud. I had never felt like I belonged anywhere like I did at that moment. Following Lady Amelia's departure, Summer and I chose to tackle some paperwork. I hadn't even powered up the computer when Lady Amelia swiftly reappeared as if struck by a sudden brilliant idea that she couldn't wait to divulge. My eyes widened in curiosity, pondering the reason for her unexpected return. "Don't look at me like that; something crossed my mind," she said, went to sit on the couch in the office, and motioned Summer and me to join her. "Besides, I just remembered that today is their friends' birthday, and they won't be able to make it for dinner," she added, and I wondered whose birthday it was because Noah had yet to tell me anything. Not wanting to seem slow, Summer and I joined her immediately, abandoning what we were planning to do initially. "I wond
~Winter~ Summer and I parted at the head of the stairs, and we went our separate ways. She headed to Sebastien's room, and I went to Noah's. I didn't miss the eagerness in my friend's footsteps. Someone was indeed falling in love, and I was happy for her. After meeting the Alberts, I knew we had nothing to worry about. And I somehow believed that things would be different here. I entered the room and found Noah typing away on his computer; he suspended what he was doing the moment I entered and turned to look at me. I didn't know I had missed him in the short period we have been apart until now. He left what he was doing and walked to me. I didn't know why, but my heart was beating in my chest. He had that effect on me. Something that I didn't get with Brandon. Noah made my heart beat in an unexplainable manner. I felt like a teenager looking at her first crush, and I must say that this was the first time I allowed myself to feel this way. I had been holding so much in until today
~Winter~ We arrived at the party, which was at a huge mansion in Mountain City. I wasn't expecting less from people who were friends with the Alberts, but I was still impressed. I breathed in and out before stepping out of the jeep Noah and I were in. Choosing to move in separate cars was a great idea. I saw how some girl rushed towards Anthony and Ethan, and I knew it would be the same if I weren't by Noah's side. We entered the place, and a handsome, easy-going guy walked up to Noah and Sebastien. Anthony and Ethan had already integrated themselves with the crowd. "Hey," he said. "Roger, meet Winter, and that's Summer," Noah said, introducing us, and the guy paused. Everyone always had that reaction when they heard our names. I was waiting for the Autumn and spring joke. But I noticed Noah's jaw harden a bit, and I could see the moment when Roger chose to be wise and not make a joke of our special names. "Nice to meet you, ladies. Welcome to my humble abode," he said, and I smil
~Noah~ The pulsating beats echoed through the dimly lit house as Winter unleashed a side of herself I never knew existed. Winter, typically serene and composed, became a force on the dance floor, moving with a magnetic energy that left me both captivated and intrigued. It was a revelation – Winter on the wild side. As she bumped and grounded to the rhythm, her every movement seemed to possess an untamed grace. I couldn't help but give in, enthralled by the transformation unfolding before my eyes, right in my arms. At that moment, I realised there was much more to discover about my mate – layers of complexity and mystery waiting to be unravelled. The flickering lights accentuated the contours of Winter's face, revealing a subtle defiance in her eyes. The music provided the backdrop to an unspoken invitation, urging me to take her somewhere more private, where the wild side of Winter could be explored further. Yet, a hesitation lingered in my mind, wondering if she would be receptive
~Noah~ Changing course, I guided Winter up the staircase. In my eagerness, she stumbled a few times, prompting me to playfully lift her bridal style, eliciting giggles from her. Aware that our antics were visible to onlookers, I shrugged off any concerns. Upon entering the room, I swiftly locked the door behind us, creating a private space. With a playful flair, I tossed Winter onto the bed, prompting laughter from her, mirroring the infectious excitement that the unconventional situation had stirred between us. I took off my shirt and my trousers, leaving on my shorts. Crawling onto the bed. I opened her shorts and rolled them down along with her panties, leaving her bare. Feeling between her legs, I could feel her wetness. She rested on her elbows to prop herself up and opened her legs wider for me to view her pretty cunt. Dipping my finger in her channel, I felt her walls clench around my fingers, and her hips began to move on their own accord. Grinding against my finger. I wit
