Mia:
I watched as ripples formed on the water with the stone I'd tossed into it settling under the lake. The water was so clear that I could see the bottom. Under the bright moonlight which illuminated the forest ground, the lake shone.
Staring at the calm water brought a sense of calm to me. It was my nightly ritual to visit the lake before I went to bed.
I stood by the water and kept staring into it as the night breeze blew past, making me pull my robe tightly against me to avoid catching a cold.
Out of nowhere, I heard a low growl. Quickly, I turned my head in the direction of the sound. My eyes landed on the silhouette of a wolf behind one of the trees a few feet away from me.
On seeing it, my heartbeat hitched up. Gradually, I took a step away from the lake, ready to bolt at any minute if it attempted to come towards me.
My heart was thudding so hard that I could hear it in my ears.
Now you're wondering why I'm scared of wolves when I live among werewolves?
At the young age of five, I witnessed the brutal death of my parents who were killed by werewolves. The memories still haunted my dreams every night.
While I continued staring at the shadow of the wolf, it slowly came into view from behind the tree. My first instincts were to run for my life but the sight before me rooted my legs to the spot.
Though the wolf was standing a distance away from me, I noticed how huge it was but that wasn't what caught my attention. It's fur did.
Under the moonlight, it shone brightly. I was mesmerized by its beauty but my trance was broken as soon as it took more steps forward and began running towards me.
Incited by my fright, I whizzed around towards the direction that led to the packhouse and made a mad dash to safety, running as fast as my legs could carry me.
I didn't wait to see if the wolf was after me. I kept on running for my life while praying that I got to the packhouse in one piece.
Out of nowhere, strong muscled arms wrapped around my waist from behind, lifting me from the ground.
A scream escaped my lips but one of the arms moved from my waist and clamped around my mouth to keep me shut. My thudding heartbeat increased erratically while I struggled to get free of the unknown man's hold by throwing my arms and legs wildly but that didn't stop him.
His grip on me could only be likened to an iron grip.
My struggles came to an end when the familiar voice whispered into my ear.
"Mia, I won't hurt you."
The words were spoken so softly that they instantly calmed me. My racing heart gradually calmed down as my breathing became even.
Even without seeing him, I knew it was Giovanni.
When he noticed I was relaxed, he dropped me to the ground but his arm never left my waist. The one that he'd placed over my mouth gradually eased off and returned to my waist.
For a moment, I tried to regain my breath until I felt a hard length pressed against my bum. A gasp fled my lips, my heartbeat picking up speed.
He chose that moment to spin me around, releasing his hold on me. Quickly, I docked my head down to avoid looking into his eyes but that was a glorious mistake on my part.
In an attempt to not see his soulless eyes, my eyes drifted down and landed on his engorged manhood. As soon as I'd seen it, a gasp flew out of my lips, my eyes snapping up to meet his.
His arms caught my waist and pulled me tightly into him till every part of our bodies were molded against each other. Another gasp of surprise escaped my lips. I could feel his hard length pressing into my stomach, well past my navel.
His dark eyes stared into mine intensely while my breathing increased to pants.
All I could say was;
"Y-you were t-the w-wolf?" My voice came out smaller than I'd meant.
Instead of a response, he kept staring into my eyes. His hard stare sent cold shivers down my spine.
"Do you like what you see?" That was his first question when he finally spoke.
I gulped, averting my eyes from his. The image of his hard dick popped into my head making my cheeks heat up. At that moment, I was thankful that it was night and he couldn't see my embarrassment.
My happiness was short-lived when his finger lifted my chin so I was left at the mercy of his soulless gaze.
One look and it was as if he could see into my soul. The thoughts sent shivers down my spine.
"I don't like repeating myself, Mia."
The way he said my name in his heavy Italian accent made butterflies explode in my stomach. With the way he was staring at me, I couldn't control my body reactions. I had to constantly remind myself that he was the alpha and we didn't belong in the same social class nor status.
"I'll have to punish you for ignoring me then" he rasped.
"No.". I blurted out instantly.
"You don't like what you see?" His brows drew together while he continued staring into my eyes.
"I-I m-mean...y-yes…"
"Yes what Mia?"
"I…" my cheeks heated up again. "I-I like…" I tried averting my gaze but his hand held on tightly to my chin. "I like what I see," I murmured in a small voice.
A lot more than you should. My subconscious asserted.
"Well," he paused, his eyes roaming my entire body. Though I was cladded in a nightdress and a robe, I felt naked under his intense gaze. "I wish I could say the same for you." He completed.
My heart fell at his comment.
Pulling away from me, he turned on his heels and headed into the woods. I stood still on the spot, tossing his words around in my head. I should have been happy he didn't find me attractive as I found him but instead, a certain sadness descended upon me.
He shouldn't be into me in the first place. He's an alpha and I'm nothing but a slave and a human. I consoled myself but that did nothing to erase the hurt.
Trying my best to put the encounter behind me, I turned and began walking towards the packhouse.
As I drew nearer, I could still hear the loud music from the party. It was a good thing that my room was at the main house. That way, my sleep wouldn't be disturbed by the loud noise.
I walked towards the back door that led to the main house. I opened it, about to slip in when I felt fur rubbing softly against my hand.
I jumped from fright. Looking beside me, I saw the same huge wolf I'd seen at the lake standing beside me, his soft black eyes staring into mine. It had a sad expression. For a moment, my fear was momentarily forgotten, replaced by the need to console the wolf.
Slowly, I patted his head with my hand, threading my fingers through his silver fur that shone under the moonlight. He was big and beautiful, reminding me of Giovanni.
Then it hit me. The wolf I was petting might be Giovanni. Quickly, I took my hand away from it making it whine at the loss.
It rubbed against my arm, wanting me to touch it but knowing it might be the alpha, I didn't bother to touch it.
"Goodnight big boy," I whispered to It before slipping into the house.
Mia:The sight of the messy packhouse greeted me as soon as I stepped into it. Plastic cups, empty bottles, and glasses littered the floor coupled with the sofas and chairs that had been rearranged in different positions to fit the guests the previous night.Seeing the work I had to do, I sighed. I'd woken up early just to clean up and still prepare breakfast early. Hence, I was groggy from the lack of sleep the previous night as a result of Images of a naked Giovanni flashing through my mind's eye throughout most of the night.Moving away from the door I'd been resting on, I got to work, picking the plastic cups and glasses from the floor. Thereafter, taking out the bottles to the recycle bin.About an hour later, I was done cleaning th
Mia:After rushing out of Giovanni's room, I climbed down the stairs, returned the cleaning supplies to the closet where I'd taken them from, and went into the kitchen to help Luna Emilia prepare breakfast."Was he good to you?" She asked, sparing me a glance as soon as she saw me."Y-yes". I answered, nodding my head to make her believe.Stopping what she was doing, she turned towards me to give me her full attention."Mia, are you sure?""He was nice to me" I drawled out, plastering a smile on my face. In response, she returned my smile but shook her head.Th
Giovanni:I'd been in my room replying to emails when I heard the angry grunts of a male voice coming from the main house. After mom left, Mia and I were the only ones at the main house.At first, I tried to pass them off as sounds of those at the packhouse but when I heard them again, I was further convinced they were coming from the main house.Dropping my phone on the nightstand, I left the room and began climbing down the stairs. Halfway down the stairs, I heard the voice of a man threatening a woman with the words,"I'll fuck your slutty body and treat you like the whore you are."My face morphed into a scowl at the words the asshole was using on a woman. To make matt
Mia:The moment I escaped from Giovanni’s room, I began planning various ways and outfits to disobey him. Although he had saved me from the hands of Santos, that doesn’t give him enough reason to make rules for me, concerning what I wear and what I shouldn’t. With the strong urge to defy his orders, I strutted to my room and changed into tiny jean shorts that were barely covering my asscheeks, and a crop top with a low neckline, exposing a fair amount of my cleavage.Looking at myself in the mirror, I winced at the reflection that stared back at me because even for me, my dressing was beyond my comfort zone but at the end, the strong will to defy Giovanni won. With the way I was dressed, it was common knowledge that I’d be getting more annoying comments from the men around the packhouse but I convinced myself th
Mia:I snuck a quick glance at him to see his eyes were trained on me expectantly. Slowly, I took a step back, my eyes searching the room for an escape but he was practically blocking the only way out, the door, and to make matters worse, it was locked.“It seems you have hearing disabilities, Mia but I’m happy to do the honors,” he took a step towards me but I immediately jumped back, trying to escape him but he quickly caught on to me, wrapping an iron fist around my waist.“Gi-n-no...please, let me go,” I whimpered, struggling against his hold.“You’re making this hard on yourself, Mia, and I’m sure you don’t want to give Luca any ideas of what’s about to hap
Mia:He wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me closer as his soft lips molded mine. His tongue snuck out, trailing the seam of my lips to seek permission and I opened up, wrapping my arms around his neck to pull him impossibly closer.His hands on my waist glided to my exposed butt, grabbing it and kneading softly as his tongue explored my mouth, tangling with mine. I felt a fire burning in every sensitive nerve ending in my body, causing me to moan into his mouth.He pulled me tightly against him, his erection making contact with my engorged clit. A gasp fled my lips at the intense burst of sensations and pleasure that overtook my entire being from that single action of his. He continued rocking his thick erection against my hard nub, turning me to mush in his hands while his mouth c
Giovanni:As soon as Mia ran from the dining room, I quickly dropped my cutleries. Telling my mom that I was going after her while I tried my best to hold the laughter that was threatening to spill out. I enjoyed every bit of torturing her in the presence of my mom.I exited the dining room, in search of the little ball of trouble the moon goddess had cursed me with, Mia. At first, I searched the whole house for her but she was nowhere to be found. A growl of annoyance came from Zander. He had quickly gotten smitten by our mate that he wasn’t finding it funny that she wasn’t in the house. Not waiting for my consent, he quickly took over my human form, my bones, and cells forming into that of his wolf form as I shifted to him. With another low growl of annoyance, he throttled out of the house through the back door, in search of Mia.
Mia:After chasing Giovanni out of my room, I’d had a sleepless night with an achy body and continuous dreams of him doing things I hadn’t imagined to my body. Although I regretted letting him go, it was for the best. I still couldn’t understand how I’d gone from hating his guts to wanting him.I went about my day, praying not to bump into him because the Lord knows I could only resist him so much. My prayer was answered but in another form. I didn’t have to bump into the alpha and risk letting him have his way with me if he was with another woman of his kind, a female werewolf. But then, I didn't like the feeling that came with that.I’d just returned from an errand Luna sent me and the first sight that welcomed me on entering into the living room
