“Let’s take a seat.” Adrian grabbed my hand, leading us toward the dinner table but I snatched my hand out of his grasp,“What are you doing?!” I hissed, “You should go. There are so many people there. Even two alphas!”He rolled his eyes, “It is just dinner! And now you are my Consort. You have every right to be at that table.”“Right! I keep forgetting about that. But I don’t want to creat a farce.” I kept my voice low to make sure nobody else hears us, “the dangerous energy between your dad and alpha Griffin, it is already so heavy in the air. Let’s not create more troubles, Adrian.”All eyes turned to us when we took
‘What just happened?’‘Where did she go? Did she just disappear?’‘Look under the table.’‘Oh my god… she knows dark magic!’A commotion had lit up the entire hall. Everyone was so shocked that no one was even pretending to keep their voices down. Leila had just disappeared in front of everyone without a trace within less than a second. Everyone had started murmuring about Leila using magic to run away. It was the only plausible explanation.Alpha Griffin faked a worried face. He was looking around frantically to find Leila but she was nowhere to be seen.
I closed my eyes, ready to shift. There was no other way to be saved.My body felt hot, my claws coming out. I bent down on my knees to shift to my wolf.BANG!The top of the basement burst open. The fire burst through the small hole at once and then calmed down. A figure jumped through the door. I had never felt such a deep relief ever before in my entire life.Adrian’s eyes fell on me, noticing my claws. He immediately came over, grabbing Lucinda first while saying to me, “I am bringing you out.”I gulped hard, the dark smoke making it impossible for me to breathe properly or see anything. There was a shout from the above, someone threw
I nervously glanced at Adrian past the bushes and trees that I had tried to hide behind. Lucinda stood in front of me. Broken down, but looking much better now that she had been given some treatment. Everyone had started to return to their homes while a search group was sent to hunt down Leila. Alpha Griffin was in no state to even walk. An ambulance had been brought in to carry him to the pack hospital.“What’s up?” Lucinda asked impatiently, tiredness covering her face, “I wanna go back and take a fucking nap. What do you want?”My attention returned to her. I could feel Adrian’s eyes pinned on us. Folding my arms over my chest, I straightened my back to prepare myself, and then stated, “You heard what Leila said about my wolf, didn’t you?”Lucinda was silent for a mere second, but then smirked, and leaned back against the bark of a tree. Though it was more because she was perhaps getting tired of standing rather than attitude.“I heard.”My worst fear. Though it was not like I was
I woke up from gentle knocking on the door. It first the constant ‘Thak, thak, thak’ irritated the hell out of my sleep deprived brain. But then I opened my eyes, realised I was in the pack house, laying in Adrian’s spare room entirely naked with a heavy arm around me, and shot up immediately.Shit!THAK. THAK. THAK.The knocking grew louder. Fucking hell.I did not have the time to dress up so I just threw on the bathrobe laying on the floor, and got out of the bed. I was about to unlock the door when I remembered something, flipped around and ran back to the bed.Adrian was spread out in the bed, fast asleep. I grabbed the sh
I pushed him out of the room as my face turned red in shame. Locking the door from inside, I took several deep breaths to calm myself and then changed the clothes. The dress was light and cloudy on my skin. I had never had something like this. Something NEW even. Exhaling with deep comfort, I stepped out of the changing room to go meet Adrian.Adrian’s appreciative stare slid over me, making me blush even harder. When I was next to him, he grabbed my hand and took me along to shop around for more things. The time passed pretty quickly as we brought shoes and jewelerry and even the smallest things like shampoo and lotions. By the time it ended, I was literally exhausted out of my mind. We then ate food in a nice restaurant and had an ice cream. We then headed back to the car with some bags in our hands, ready to return.After coming back home Adrian leaded over to whisper, “I can’t wait to take this dress off you.”“We are in public!” I hissed, hiding my face in his arm. I had made a
I became still with shock. The stunned look was perhaps clear on my face as Alpha Bruno’s eyes narrowed when he spoke the next words,“You both knew from the very start that all of this was just for the show. There was obviously never going to be a marriage between you two. It is best for you to end it right now. I don’t want my son to be connected with an omega in any way from now on.” his eyes slid to Adrian, muttering, “understood?”Adrian’s face was emotionless. Cold and indifferent.“Dad, I am not doing that.” Adrian responded. “Leila is already out of the picture so all our troubles are over. I want to keep August.” he glanced my way briefly and met alpha’s gaze again.Alpha’s gaze turned stern, “Don’t test my fucking patience, Adrian. What are you thinking? An Omega by your side? Have you lost your mind?!”“I agreed to do whatever you wanted. But I not thi-”“We will, Alpha.” I interjected before things could get any worse, “we will announce the cancellation of our engagement a
“I am.” I muttered. “I want more.” he smiled and slipped his hand on the small of my back. His hand was warm, and I couldn't help but shiver at his touch. His faced leaned in and his lips brushed against mine. He pulled back slightly and whispered, “Your scent is driving me fucking crazy.” “We… we should-” Before I could finish my sentence, he kissed me again. This time, he was much more aggressive. He deepened the kiss, his hands were on my waist, and he was pulling me closer to him. With my body trembling, I clung to him. As much as the thought of someone seeing us making out made me nervous, ignoring his touch was much harder. His mouth slid down from my lips, down to my ear, licking the sensitive spot that I didn’t know existed. My body stiffened as I felt the tickle on my ear. The electrifying sensation ran through my entire body at once, igniting fire in every pore. “Adrian…” I whispered. My hand slid from the side of his face to his neck, my fingers trailing along the
