Being Sylvester's Luna was not as easy as I thought it would be. One consolation I got from the whole thing was that my wonderful pups would not be raised by another female and at least, I had made Christopher happier like he asked of me by being his brother's Luna even if being Sylvester's Luna was killing me slowly. Little wonder then that I had not wanted to be his Luna, contract or otherwise.Alpha Sylvester would go off, sometimes for two days, sometimes a three at a stretch and when he got back, he would be reeking of female perfume. I pretended it was of no concern of mine but it was getting harder to keep that up and he seemed to enjoy rubbing it in my face!The worst thing of all was that I was missing him. The silent comradeship we shared after Christopher's demise was gone and in its place was a sexual tension I could have done without and would rather die than admit to. I was jealous of those females that he seemed to be spending endless time with. My pups were the only th

The way Sylvester treats Devin and Kevin, one would think he was their biological father. I came home one day and stood watching him as he played with them, he was squatting on all fours and they climbed his back like they would a pony and he was moving with them on his back and they squealed with laughter. It was evident that he did this with them everytime.I was happy that at least my pups had a father figure and would not be missing out in the affection of a father but I was also sad because, Sylvester's attitude to me had gone from cold to frosty, bordering on frozen and my pride would not allow me beg him to take me to bed but I craved it so much. Oh, God, how I crave his touch! Since I came back from judging the case, a fortnight ago, I have tried in subtle ways to show him that I was ready to take the next step in our relationship - that I wanted us to consummate our marriage, that I desired it greatly but if he noticed any change in me, he didn't show it and we kept on hurt

Sylvester's POVI feel drawn to Devin and Kevin. I could not have loved them more if they were my biological pups. In a way, they are. Afterall, their father was my other half. The best part of my day was playing with them. They bring me so much joy and whenever I am with them, I forget all the burdens in my heart.We were having so much fun one such day that I did not know when Millicent came in. I caught a whiff of her but I knew she had been standing there for a long while without me being any the wiser.'Oh, you're here!' I said.She nodded, and I felt hurt that she was still acting so cold towards me even after seven months of being joined by the priest as Alpha and Luna.'Okay, pups, it's time for your nap', she said cheerfully. 'Say bye to uncle Sylvester!'I looked at her furiously. Why she insists on hurting my feelings, I could not fathom. She knew I would rather they called me Dad. That's what I was anyway in a manner of speaking. Their Dad and I were different sides of the

The days following this encounter was a strain. I could not look at her without recalling her scent, her perfect body form, her response and I knew if something was not done soon, I was going to go insane. I had been on heat a few times but with Millicent, I always found it impossible to control myself.'Sylvester', she had said the next day. 'We need to talk!''About what?' I asked, raising a brow as though I did not care for that.'About last night!' she said. 'There's no use acting as though nothing happened'.'Did something happen?' I asked, wanting to know what her response would be.'We came close to mating!' she said.'You mean, you wanted us to mate?' I asked, hoping she would say something that would make me know she was ready to accept me fully.'I did not.. want us to mate, that is!' she snapped. 'Oh, but you did. Are you still living in denial?' I asked, thinking Millicent was really incorrigible.'If I did, it must be because I thought I was with someone else', she said

Millicent's POV I was happy that Sylvester had not actually been going to mate other females. I had been jealous and distressed for no just cause. I wanted to be angry with him but could not for joy.But your injuries...' I tried to warn him to take it easy as he drew me into the bed beside him.'No buts! And to hell with the injury!' he said carelessly as he started kissing me.'Thank you, Moon Goddess, for this second chance at happiness', I prayed silently to the Luna Goddess.Sylvester was kissing me as though he was going out of his mind and I did not blame him because I was too but I still wanted him to be alright.'Stop worrying', he said. 'I am an Alpha and I can self - heal faster than other werewolves. Coupled with the fact that you are a healer and my mate. Mating with you will not endanger me but serve to heal me faster!' he said, and I saw the logic in his words and had to agree with him.I threw myself into the kissing, murmuring lustfully, 'At this rate, we'll be teari
