AMELIA’S P.O.VI woke up to a pressure building in my lower belly. I tried to ignore it but it made me squirm and the more I arose from my slumber, the more my surroundings became more obvious to me. I realized I was gripping the sheets and I realized that there was a warmth at the apex of my thighs that even without opening my eyes, I knew belonged to Kaden and his sinful mouth. I tried to ignore and pretend like I was asleep but Kaden was not letting up.I finally peeled my eyes open only to see him settled in between my thighs leisurely licking me like it was his job. His palm was spread wide and pressed against my lower belly as he fucked me with his tongue. A moan left my lips and Kaden’s eyes snapped up to mine. A feral smile grew on his face but he didn’t let up. My thighs trembled and just as I was about to orgasm, I heard a door slam shut.It snapped us both out of our reverie and Kaden held up a hand to signal for me to be quiet. We waited with baited breath to see who had
KADEN’S P.O.VI could not stop thinking about Amelia. I had been with different girls in my life but none were my mate and none had the power to infiltrate my mind the way she did. She didn’t even know the kind of power she had over me. I would never have thought it was possible for someone that small to hold such a place but I was completely at her mercy and it was obvious to anyone with eyes.I tried to push the thoughts of my mother out of my mind. I texted her soon after leaving Caleb’s house hoping that we could talk but she was ignoring me. I had never spoken to her like that before and I knew it was going to take a lot for her to forgive me and as much as it hurt me, I wasn’t going to apologize to her. I didn’t appreciate the way she spoke to Amelia and I needed to make sure it didn’t happen again. If I had my way then both women were going to be in my life for a very long time and I needed to make sure that there was complete respect.My door opened and Caleb waltzed in wearin
KADEN’S P.O.V“I have been waiting for you for over half an hour,” she began in a disgruntled tone. “It isn’t kind to keep a lady waiting, Kaden, surely I taught you better.”“I called you repeatedly mother, you could have left a message,” I crossed the length of the room and took my seat.For the first time¸ there was awkward silence between us. My mother didn’t do awkward, she demanded and pushed until she got her way but it was like she was suddenly aware that I was not just her son but the Alpha of the most powerful pack and there was little she could force me to do. Standing up to her had felt like regaining some sort of control- something she desperately craved.“I believe we got off on the wrong foot earlier,” she began weakly. “I was just shocked to see someone else in your house especially when Lucy called to tell me that you had a fight and had thrown her out. I had planned to go last night but I wanted you to calm down first I didn’t mean to imply that the girl was a whore.
AMELIA’S P.O.VKaden was gone by the time I woke up and I felt a pang of loneliness in my chest. Last night, he had settled between my thighs and eaten me out while I fought to stay silent. He made sure I came twice before settling me into his arms. I wanted to reciprocate but he stopped me saying that he just wanted to hold me.I fell asleep with my head on his chest and his hand stroking my hair and he had assured me that he would be right there when I woke up. I tried to push down the disappointment that had climbed up my chest as I got ready for training. I went through the movements on autopilot trying not to glance over at the empty side of the bed that Kaden lay.Just as I was about to leave, I noticed something on my work desk. It was a piece of paper that wasn’t there before and my name was scrawled over it. I picked it up and wasted no time in opening it. I couldn’t stop the face splitting grin that creeped up my cheeks as I read it. It was from Kaden and although it wasn’t
KADEN’S P.O.VHaving to leave Amelia alone in bed was one of the hardest things I ever had to do. I could still taste her on my lips and I wanted nothing smore than to wake her up with my tongue slowly moving inside of her. I wanted to hear her soft mewls of pleasure as she writhed against my face.She was lying so peacefully against my chest and she molded so perfectly into me like she was made for me. I wanted nothing more than to stay there and if I had died in that moment, I would have died a happy man but unfortunately, I was Alpha and I had some things that needed my attention. I didn’t want her to feel like I just left so I dropped the note and sent her a message.I wanted to make it up to her so I planned a date for us in the afternoon however, there were some things I needed to do first. My mother was not answering my messages about her cryptic message in my office so I decided to do my own investigation. There were few people who would know what my mother was talking about a
KADEN’S P.O.VI made sure the door was locked before I took a seat. The last thing I needed was someone walking in and overhearing something that they didn’t need to. I knew the healer since I was a child, she was the one who delivered me and she was the first to be called whenever there was an emergency. I never bothered to learn her first name and she never offered, I always referred to her as Dr. Brown. She had always been kind and softspoken but she could also be fierce when she needed to be.Most people were scared of me but she had never looked at me as anything other than her patient. She regarded me with the same soft and cool tones she reserved for her patients. Although she gave me the respect that came with my title, that was where it ended. I never got special treatment from her and for some reason, I liked it.“I don’t where to start,” for the first time, she sounded unsure. “If I talk to you, I need a promise that your mother will not come for me. She made me swear that
AMELIA’S P.O.VI was anxious for my day at school. I could already imagine the rumors going around in the rumor mill and I was terrified. A part of me still wasn’t sure if I was allowed to talk about my relationship with Kaden or not. I knew he took me out for lunch but it was in a private location. I was in uncharted territory and I had no idea how to proceed.“Everything will be fine,” Clara told me when she saw me stressing in my room.I called her in to help with my hair. I was hoping that nobody had seen us during dinner but just in case, I wanted to make sure I looked good. If I was seeing the Alpha then I needed to be presentable enough and worthy to be on his arm. I picked my prettiest top and paired it with skin tight jeans and my hair was curled then styled back.Clara dropped me off and I was in a very good mood when I got to school because I felt pretty but the moment I stepped out of the car and the whispers began, I felt uneasy. I wanted to rush back into the car but Cla
AMELIA’S P.O.VKaden kept his arms around me as he made a quick call to his receptionist and asked her to get some food for us. I couldn’t help but wonder why he didn’t just mind link her especially when she had to call to confirm what drink I wanted with my food. I kept my question to myself because I didn’t want to seem too inquisitive but when she walked into the office and smiled softly at me as she placed the plastic bags on the table, I couldn’t help but turn to Kaden.I waited until the door had shut behind me before I spoke. “Why don’t you mind link people? I have only seen you use it with Caleb. Don’t they know how to?”“They do but they can’t because they don’t have access to my link.”My brows furrowed in confusion. I cocked my head to the side but Kaden didn’t pay heed to me, he was more interested in making sure that his secretary had gotten everything he asked. I remembered him giving me access to his link so easily and I thought it was like that with everyone else.“I h
KADEN’S P.O.VAs soon as Caleb drove off with Amelia, I felt someone slap me upside the head.There were only a handful of people who would dare to do that- my mother, Amelia and Pamela- I didn’t need to turn around to know who it was.“You idiot,” Pamela hissed. “What were you thinking? She told you to stop multiple times and you kept going. Did you not hear when she said she would hate you?”I did hear her actually, I just convinced myself that she was upset and it would be fine after. I didn’t realize that she meant it or I would have stopped. It was a shitty excuse and I knew it made me a fucking terrible mate as well.“I know I messed up,” I ran my hands through my hair in frustration. “I’ll make it up to her.”Pamela scoffed. “You stupid child, this is more than just making it up to her. After everything she went through, you were meant to be her safe place and you hurt her. This isn’t just about you outing her in public, you betrayed her trust. She has no one right now.”“That’
AMELIA’S P.O.VI walked out of the dining room and out the front door.I knew I was being a tad bit unreasonable but it pissed me off to no end that he couldn’t just trust me. I didn’t want to have that conversation in front of everyone, I didn’t want that part of my life out there. We were having a child together for goddess sake and yet, he couldn’t just listen to me.“Amelia!” Kaden’s voice echoed through the air as he rushed over to me. “Baby, please, just wait.”I ignored him and heads straight for my car. My guards were nowhere to be seen. They must have left after Kaden arrived. It didn’t matter to me anyway, I could drive. It was a terrifying thought to go home alone but I was going to do it. I wasn’t going to sit back and give him the satisfaction.I got to the door of my car when he placed a hand on the car door. “Please, Amelia, let me just talk to you, please.”“I have nothing to say to you,” I crossed my arms over my chest without looking at him. “Just go, okay? I don’t w
AMELIA’S P.O.VClara didn’t say a single word regarding my conversation with Aaron. I could tell she was thinking about it though. She was many things but stupid was not one of it. She knew exactly what that conversation was about and I expected more questions from her but there was nothing.“Do you want to come in?” was the first thing she asked when we got to her house. “My grandparents are home but that’s about it. They’ve missed you. They might want to say hi.”I didn’t want to take the offer but I also realized how cruel it was that I hadn’t come to see them yet. They took me in when they didn’t have to and treated me like their own grandchild. Before I could talk myself out of it, I nodded and followed her up to the front door.My palms were clammy and it felt like my chest was closing in on me but I forced myself to walk into the house. It smelled the same and looked the same, nothing had changed since the last time I was inside. It almost felt like I had never left.“Clara are
AMELIA’S P.O.VClara and I sat down on the wooden chairs while Aaron remained at the edge of the bed. He looked better than the last time I saw him, much better actually.“You haven’t used your powers in a while,” he didn’t waste any time before going straight to the point. “Both of you, not just you, Amelia.”I shrugged. “My wolf was drugged for weeks and I just haven’t had a reason to recently.”“You will soon.”It sounded more like an ominous warning than anything and I wanted to ask more about what he meant but he had already turned away from me and was facing Clara. She had her hands folded neatly in her laps and her face was cast down.“I just didn’t want to,” she shrugged. It was clear she was very uncomfortable with the direction of the conversation.She already told me why so she didn’t need to tell him, especially if she didn’t want to. Besides, I was concerned with how he knew that we hadn’t used our powers in a while. We didn’t talk about it outside his door so there was n
AMELIA’S P.O.VI regretted my words the moment I saw the three guards that Kaden had arranged for me.He had a smile of pride on his face once they arrived and I resisted the urge to roll my eyes. They were quite possibly the biggest and scariest men I had ever seen in my life. One of them had tattoos all over his arm, the other had a mean resting face that could make a grown man piss his pants. The third didn’t look as scary as the others but his sheer size alone was enough to make a person pause.“These are your guards,” he gestured to the men in front of me. “They’ll take you to Clara’s house first and you can go wherever you want after.”I crossed my arms over my chest and stared at him blankly. “Are you serious?”“You said as many as I want. I wanted to get you four guards but I figured it would be too much.”“And you don’t think three is a little over the top?”“It’s this or nothing, baby.”I let out an exasperated sigh before turning to the guards. “Fine.”Neither of them broke
AMELIA’S P.O.VI was done hiding.If Blake was willing to leave his pack despite not having his wolf then he was a greater foe than I knew and I couldn’t just sit on my ass and wait for him to attack whenever he felt like. He wasn’t backing down anytime soon, I knew that much. I saw the look in his eyes yesterday and I knew what it was. It was a look of pure determination. I knew that it wasn’t about what I wanted anymore or about what he presumed to be a mate bond, this was about an Alpha whose ego was just bruised.I embarrassed him and made him look weak and he wanted me back to show that he wasn’t. I was the shiny trophy that he wanted to keep in a display and I’d be damned if I let him do that to me. He couldn’t control my life- not anymore at least.For the first time since I returned, I woke up earlier than Kaden and made my way down to the kitchen to make breakfast. It felt so good to be back in my own house, barefoot in my kitchen and able to do whatever I wanted.I had bare
KADEN’S P.O.VBlake was a fucking coward.For someone who was brave enough to keep my mate for days, he ran off like a fucking wuss when he realized that he didn’t have his wolf to fight for him.I made sure to comb the entire border to ensure that he was not lurking around. The last thing I wanted was for someone else to go missing. It was torturous enough searching for Amelia, I wasn’t sure I had it in me to search for someone else.As soon as I was sure that Blake wasn’t hiding anymore, I rushed over to Amelia. Her mind was quiet which wasn’t unusual. Ever since she returned, she preferred to stay on her own with her thoughts. I hated it but I knew it would take some time before she went back to the way she was- if she ever did. If she never went back, I didn’t care, I just wanted her.The moment I got to the car, I knew something was wrong. Caleb was standing next to the car but his brows were furrowed in deep thought. He looked somewhat relieved when he saw me but when I asked, h
AMELIA’S P.O.VI didn’t realize just how badly my legs were shaking until I got to the car. I had barely reached it when my legs gave out and I had to grip it so as not to hit the ground.“Shit, are you okay?” Caleb was at my side in an instant but he hesitated to touch me. “Do you need me to call Kaden?”I shook my head. “I’m fine, I swear, I just- I didn’t know how scary it would be to see him after everything.”Caleb assessed me warily but said nothing. I slowly sank to the ground not having the energy in me to open the car. Besides, the grass was much softer and it was fresh, the wind was blowing and I could feel the breeze on my face. I didn’t feel caged anymore and I needed to remember that.“Do you want some water?” he asked and I nodded.I watched as he reached into the backseat of the car and retrieved a water bottled. It smelled like him so it was obviously his but I couldn’t bring myself to be picky. I just uncapped it and downed the water. My heart was pounding violently i
AMELIA’S P.O.VWe sat in the tub until our skin started to prune. True to his words, Kaden didn’t say a word as we got out of the tub. He didn’t even speak as we ate lunch or dinner. I thought he had forgotten and a part of me was relieved because I knew that whatever he wanted to say had to do with Blake.My relief lasted until sometime around ten when there was a frantic knock on our door. I glanced at Kaden who looked to be as confused as I felt. He gestured for me to remain seated while he went to check it out but he should have known better because as soon as he was out the door, I was behind him.“Amelia,” he hissed but I waved him off.I was dressed in lounge pants and a loose shirt. I was prepared for whatever it could be. He muttered something under his breath that sounded similar to ‘goddess help me’.“Stay here,” he told me once I got to the bottom of the steps. I pursed my lips but I was close enough to see the door so I waited.He pulled the door open and I could feel th
