Please note that whenever Umiko speaks with Yui, it is in their native language. But it is in English when Umiko speaks with anyone else, like Fenriz and Marcus. Yui doesn't speak English at all.
Very smooth, Fenriz. “Remember who you belong to.” Seriously?! What the fuck made me say something so absolutely immature?“Fuck,” I grumble, grabbing my gloves and jacket from my desk and heading out. I must admit that Umiko asking to see me came as a surprise; I thought she was still terrified of me. Whenever she made eye contact with me, she would blush and look down or avoid my gaze altogether. But today, she asked to see me; I’m sure Andreas will have something to say about that.I walk towards the front door and am immediately hit with her scent, but I brush it off as best I can and head to the garage. These meetings I’m about to attend are some of the most important, so I can’t afford to be distracted today.“You sure you want to go with that?” Andreas says when he sees me next to my Yamaha VMAX, and I shrug.“The city is mine; if I want to show up to a fucking business meeting dressed in leather and stinking of fumes, then I will,” I say, slipping on my leather jacket and ge
What an odd household. The servants here are pleasant, the guards acknowledge me, and I am allowed everywhere, even in the same area as Fenriz’s office. To say that I am not used to this is putting it lightly - I am not a prisoner in my own home.“Is something wrong?” Yui asks me as we walk through the back garden. Marcus, the guard, is walking two paces behind us while his team is spread out in front. I shake my head. “Not really, no. Things are just so different here, wouldn’t you say?”She nods. “People actually look at me when they speak to me,” she murmurs, then gestures towards Marcus. “Even the guards treat me like they’re a lower stature than I am.” “It’s a different world over here, entirely different,” I say, then link my arm with hers and give her a playful smile. “Perhaps we can learn not to be so wary of them?”“I know what you’re doing, and I will not answer you until this suspicious feeling goes away,” she says, rolling her eyes even as she tries to hide her smile. “B
I have spent the last three hours introducing my pack members to Umiko. Most of them welcomed her, while the rest of them looked at her with pity. I know they have no hope for her to live longer than a year; none of my other wives reached their one-year anniversaries with me.After last night’s discovery, I barely slept; even Baron was up all night pacing. What we saw didn’t only surprise the both of us, but it made us realize that we might be in for more than we expected. I find out if this thing inside of her is good or evil, not only that, but what exactly it is. “Everyone is so kind,” she suddenly says, snapping me out of my thoughts, and I turn to look at her. It’s just after 4 pm, and we’re currently walking on our way back to the mansion after meeting the last of the pack. I’ve introduced her to every pack member but one - my father.She’s wearing a light blue autumn dress that clings to her lithe body and has her hair pinned up in a ponytail today. Her eyes are shining with e
I don’t know where the courage came from to face Fenriz after what happened. But now, as I walk away from him, feeling his eyes on my back, my legs are just about to give in./“Head up high, Umiko. He may sense your fear but never let him see it.”/ Ahmya urges me on, and it is by that alone that I make it to the garden patio. Holding on to the handrail, I try to regain my breathing and control the constant beating of my heart. Why did I have to be so honest with him? I don’t know him, and I don’t see the type of person he is, so to assume that he acted out of kindness was just foolish!/“You couldn’t have known that he would react that way,”/ Ahmya assures me, and I place a shaky hand on my chest. /“No, but I should not have assumed anything about him. He is a Lycan Alpha and has certainly killed many people, so I cannot assume he can be kind, or a good person./ I say and sigh. Ahmya looks at me oddly, then turns away. I let my guard down again, simply because I had assumed Fenriz
Andreas looks at me incredulously and shakes his head. “You threatened your fucking wife?” I nod and lift the whiskey tumbler to my lips, seething at my best friend’s tone. “Do you want another play-by-play, asshole?”“You threatened your wife, your fucking Luna, who also happens to be your Fated Mate. The one person you’re supposed to fucking protect and who has already been through shit at the hands of her own father. We’re talking about the same woman here, right?” He says, shaking his head.I breathe out a sigh and look at him over the desk in one of my offices back in the city. There was some witch in one of my casinos trying her shit, and I had to kill her and her entire coven for already swindling three of my hotels out of a cold 5 million.“I didn’t tell you all this so you can chew me the fuck out, Andreas-”“You told me this because you trust me, and I am not only your Beta but your best fucking friend. You told me this because you WANT me to chew you the fuck out and tell
It feels like I have died and gone to pleasure-induced heaven. The way Fenriz controlled my body and made it bend to his will, his gentle touch on my skin and his tongue caressing me. I never thought anyone could make me feel this way and still want more.But as I lay in an ecstasy-laden oblivion, a coldness seemed to envelop the room, and when I opened my eyes to look at Fenriz, something seemed different. Where before he looked at me as some delicious fruit to devour, now I felt like prey under his Lycan gaze.“Fenriz, why are you looking at me like that?” I murmur and sit up, pulling my legs towards my chest. A sliver of fear shoots up my spine when I catch the bloodlust on his scent, and I jump up from the bed as he reaches for me.“What is going on?” I say while attempting to cover my naked body with the tattered night dress. Fenriz stalks towards me, a low growl thrumming in his chest, and I notice that his claws have extended. I can feel my heart slamming against my chest, the
I’m numb.I can’t feel anything; not even Andreas’ blows against my face as he hits me with all his strength. He’s angry, I know, but it doesn’t even touch the way I am feeling right now. We’re in the underground pits underneath the mansion, the only place I could think of coming to after what happened with Umiko.Andreas stops hitting me, and I fall to my knees without any will to get up again. I can feel the wounds and broken ribs already starting to heal, and the wheezing because of my punctured lungs slowly goes away as well. It should be painful, it should hurt like hell and take slow to heal, but for some reason, Baron is preventing my inevitable death. “Are you going to fight back or stand there feeling sorry for yourself?” Andreas' voice is thick with fury as he chastises me; his tattooed fists are a mess of our blood mixed from him punching me so much.I look up at him through the blood dripping down my busted eye and scoff.“The only reason you’re not dead right now is beca
Baron has been quiet ever since, so I decide to break the silence and speak with him./“Are you okay?”/ I ask, and he opens his crimson eyes./“You nearly killed her and ignored my warning after telling me that I would kill her in the end. No, I am not okay,”/ he growls in annoyance.I sigh. /“I know, and I apologize for that. It is the reason we’re going to Him for help; I need to know if he knows what happened.”//“We can not trust your father,”/ he says the words I already know. My father is the last person I would come to for help, but I have a feeling that he knows a lot more and has been keeping crucial information from me.I notice that Andreas’ anger has disappeared when I walk into the garage and spot him standing next to our motorcycles. He looks up when he sees me and smirks.“Your Luna is something else,” he remarks, picking up his gloves. “Hot-headed, sort of like her mate.”“Watch it,” I chuckle and shake my head. “She was just worked up.”He scoffs. “Worked up? She fuck
