3 or 4 more chapters to go, I do hope that you enjoyed this...
Sienna:I lay on my bed as I tried to calm my racing heartbeat, thinking about everything that happened in the past few weeks.I had to admit, it seemed to me like I was the one who actually paid the price of everything that happened, mostly because I could tell that everyone was happy with the ‘achievement’ that we have managed to do. However, to me, it just seemed like a heavy weight had settled on my shoulders, and now, I really didn’t know how to get rid of it.Arturo opened the door without needing to knock, I knew that he was well aware that I wasn’t moving, meaning that I was either sitting on the couch or laying on bed. He sighed when he took sight of me before slowly approaching. He didn’t say a word, he didn’t need to, as he wrapped his arms around me, pulling me in for a hug. I purred in response and curled up in his arms, thankful for his presence. In my head, our relationship was the only thing that I have managed to gain out of this conflict. If anything, I knew that it
Arturo:Six months later:I walked around the garden with my beauty who was holding her stomach as our baby kicked.I couldn’t help but smile at the feeling of contentment that I was having for her being around me the way that she was.The happiness that I felt was one that I knew I couldn’t describe and I couldn’t help but feel like my heart skipped a few beats as I recalled the two of us getting married and dancing on the dance floor in front of everyone who was watching us on our wedding day.Flashback:“Put a smile on at least, people are watching us.” I said, catching her attention as she looked down at my chest. I knew that she was careful not to step on my foot, but looking up at me, she raised an eyebrow.“I do believe that they are all aware that the two of us are nowhere near being lovers, why have to fake it?” She asked as I twirled her before pulling her closer to my chest. I wrapped my arms around her, her back was to my chest, and resting my chin on her shoulder, I kisse
Sienna:I screamed as loud as I could as I tried pushing my baby out of me.“Come on, Luna, you can do it.” Valeria encouraged as she held my hand. I took deep and slow breaths as I tried fighting off the cramps which seemed to be tearing my insides out. My heart raced, and I knew that my mate could feel my pain, that didn’t make things any better though. The man was probably outside losing his mind as his father and two betas stopped and held him down.“Come on, Sienna, you can do it.” Ayla said, massaging my shoulder as she dabbed a wet cloth to my sweaty forehead. “Can’t I just get up and walk?” I asked, taking deep breaths as I waited for the next contraction. “If the baby can come out as I am laying, I am sure that it would just slip down when I’m walking… FUCK!” “You need to push, Sienna, just keep pushing.” Valeria said, choosing to ignore my question. I glared at her and forced myself to push one more time, my body feeling like it was set on fire as I waited for the pain to
She smiled as she watched her husband walking out of the house, holding their daughter in his arms.It has been months since Sienna has given birth, and she couldn’t be happier with her relationship with the Alpha of Alphas. He was the Lycan that everyone feared, and yet, he was her savior, her love, her passion, and her desire. He smiled when he took sight of her before approaching her slowly. “Are you okay?” He asked, watching as his daughter went to her mother, wanting to be held by her. Contasina giggled as Sienna wrapped her arms around her, holding her to her chest before she kissed her.“I am fine. I just needed some air.” Sienna said, looking up at the sky. Today marked her mother’s birthday, and though Arturo didn’t know about it, he could tell that something was wrong with his mate. She would rarely ever open up about her mom. In her mind, she feared that speaking about her wouldn’t do her justice, and she was thankful for the fact that no one ever pressured her to do som
Sienna:I walked through the garden toward the Lycan that was to be my husband.My father, who had his arm looped with my own, looked at me, reminding me of the importance of this. My heart aching with each step that I took as I remembered what he had done to my mother twenty years ago when I was barely five. And looking at his ‘mate’, or as I called her, the scandal that he chose to be with, I had to fight back trying to run away, knowing the consequences that would happen if I tried.I nodded, not saying a word, knowing that the wolves’ fate lay in the hands of this marriage, and approaching him, I had to fight back the low growl that threatened to escape my chest as my wolf sensed his danger. It was one stronger and scarier than the one that I have lived through growing up in the place that I should have called home.The King of Lycans, and the Capo dei Capi, Alpha Arturo de’ Medici, the man who was to be my husband.He extended his hand to me, and taking his, I took a step forward
Arturo:I wrapped my arm around Sienna’s waist, pulling her to my chest as the two of us danced. Knowing that we were the center of attention, the two of us tried to focus on what we ‘learned’ in the dance classes they had us taking a week before the wedding. The two of us swayed to the music, while her arm was wrapped around my neck, and her other held my hand as if her life depended on it. Regardless of her grip, I couldn't miss her racing heart and shaking hand as she held mine as if frightened.“Put a smile on at least, people are watching us.” I said, catching her attention as she looked down at my chest. I knew that she was careful not to step on my foot, but looking up at me, she raised an eyebrow.“I do believe that they are all aware that the two of us are nowhere near being lovers, why have to fake it?” She asked as I twirled her before pulling her closer to my chest. I wrapped my arms around her, her back was to my chest, and resting my chin on her shoulder, I kissed her c
Sienna:I was about to respond when the dressing room’s door was knocked, breaking our conversation.Arturo frowned and cursed under his breath before taking a step back, letting me go in the process.He wrapped his hand around my fist, pulling me away from the door before opening it, revealing his mother who frowned in confusion when she saw the two of us inside. She crossed her arms over her chest, a small smile creeping to her lips as she probably thought that the two of us were getting intimate in the dressing room.“The plane leaves in an hour and a half and we need to hit the road to get to the airport. I think whatever it is that you were doing can wait until you are back home, how about it?” She asked, smiling at the two of us. Arturo cursed under his breath and walked out of the room, slamming the door shut, making me jump in surprise. My heart raced against my ribcage, and I couldn’t help but notice that my hands shook as I took a deep breath, trying to calm myself. I walked
Arturo: I watched as Sienna sat on her chair beside the window. Her heart raced as she sat, clearly anxious. The family was either asleep, or busying themselves with whatever they had to tend to. My parents were on a different plane for security reasons, each one of us took their own planes. Sienna and I haven’t said a word to one another since what happened at the wedding, and it didn’t take me long to realize that she was avoiding any interaction with me to begin with. And though even mom noticed on the runway that we weren’t walking, especially when she believed that we were growing ‘intimate’, she sensed that something might have happened. But thankfully, choosing to put whatever assumptions she had in mind, she didn’t say a word. I got up from my seat. The plane was already halfway back to New York, and it wouldn’t be long until we were home, at the Estate, expected to fulfill our duties as Alpha and Luna toward one another. The ceremony, that she as a wolf expected, was not
