Desmond's POV

I called Mackenzie the next day. She came in, sulking. Perhaps she assumed that I wanted to apologize and fix things between us. She reached for a seat without me giving her the permission.

"Don't," I said calmly, but my voice didn't reflect the look in my eyes. She stared at me in confusion, struggling to make sense of my exact mood.

I had been very lenient with her. Apart from the fact that we had something a little above friendship, she had greatly helped in the search for Davi

  • Alpha's Obsession: His caged Luna    Chapter 37: Mama

    Desmond's POVMy mood had dropped so much by the time I got to my pack house. I didn't bother to see anyone or even go to my room. Instead, I walked straight to my office.I stood by the table for a while, my heart squeezing. I was staring down at a framed picture of my mother. I'd taken it, and I remembered the exact day. She was about to attend an event with her friend, and she knew she looked so good, so she asked me to take a picture.Yesterday had been her death anniversary. I'd given her flowers and spoken some words to her, as I usually did every year.My Dad had come in the evening, looking like he was about to spiral. As much as the man annoyed the fuck out of me, I stayed back to take care of him before going over to Raine's pack. He'd had so much to drink already, and he would not stop throwing hurtful words at me. He would not stop blaming me for her death.It's been eight years, and he still hated me for it."If you can hear me, mama," I swallowed through the prickle in m

  • Alpha's Obsession: His caged Luna    Chapter 36: Damson Vaughn

    Raine's POVAfter Desmond left, I began to think about our plan. My father would be returning tomorrow, which meant that my mom and Alpha Matthias would try to make the most of today.I went to down to the kitchen, to get myself a cup of coffee. Coincidentally, I found Alpha Matthias there, and he was just leaving. But he stopped when he saw me.As usual, anxiety tightened my nerves. This man had been harassing me for years with no one to defend me. I was scared of him. I never truly defended myself against him. The last time I tried to defend myself, I killed someone and the guilt had shaped my entire life since then. So I always try to walk away instead.But today I stood, still scared as hell. But he was a werewolf, even an Alpha. I wouldn't kill him easily."Lorraine baby, come to see me?" He showed me one of those grins that always made my skin crawl. "I asked you to come see me in my office days ago, why didn't you come?""Because I'm not trying to get assaulted by a shameless o

  • Alpha's Obsession: His caged Luna    Chapter 35: Business plan

    Desmond's POV I was tempted to forget about what I said earlier, and just get Raine out of that night robe and not leave her until her thighs were trembling. But I allowed reason prevail. The goddess should definitely reward me for this choice alone. "Give it to me." She stretched out her hand, truly requesting for my shirt. Was this what it meant to have a mate? She could just decide to take your clothes at any time? "I should walk out of here shirtless?" Raine smirked. "Random people are going to see me. I've already made enough fool of myself during that ball." Her smile fell. "I'm not going to let you do that. I have another for you." Oh, that sparked my interest. She went into her closet and returned with her arms full of knitted wools. She placed the pile on her bed, before searching for one. Then she took out one brown shirt with white seams and matching shorts. It was so beautifully done that I was certain it would cost a lot. "You bought me these," she said with a smile

  • Alpha's Obsession: His caged Luna    Chapter 34: Blackmail

    Raine's POVI opened my eyes to the sound of knocking on the door. I attempted to get up, only for my movement to be restricted by a solid weight all around me. It took me a moment to register what the weight was. The scent, comfort, and how relaxed my wolf was. It could only be my mate. He fucking slept over.I was lying at my side, face pressed into his chest, one leg tangled up in the middle of his, one strong arm wrapping over my waist. I wanted to stay in this position forever.The knock came again."Ignore it."A shiver ran down my spine.I'd always found Desmond's voice sexy, but hearing it first thing in the morning was a whole different issue. There was that groggy rasp to it that made me want him to go down on me again while talking me through it. As if his scent and solid presence wasn't enough temptation already, now he had to sound like that. It didn't help that he was shirtless and on my bed. What if I tell him that I wanted him to go down on me? I was certain he wouldn'

  • Alpha's Obsession: His caged Luna    Chapter 33: Not a monster

    Raine's POVThis was one defining moment in my life. I had never admitted what I just admitted to Desmond to any other person, and I swore never to. I was ashamed of it. Who wouldn't be? I put on the perfect facade for so long that I almost forgot that I was in fact, not a good person by any means.I waited for Desmond's response, my heart in my throat, my fists tightly curled around my dress under the sheets as I waited for him to say anything. He would probably want nothing to do with me now, but it's better than his silence.My mind went to that day and my mother's reaction when she found out.====='You killed a boy,' mom whispered to me after she managed to sneak me back inside, her voice accusing. 'You killed someone, Lorraine.''It was a mistake,' seventeen year old me cried, my entire body trembling violently. 'I didn't mean to. I wasn't thinking. My wolf attacked.' Yes, I was too young to have a wolf, so it even took me by surprise. 'I... I tried to push him off me, but Jonat

  • Alpha's Obsession: His caged Luna    Chapter 32: Jade and Auburn

    Desmond's POVI really wanted to know the secret that Raine had been hiding, but I was still very okay listening to her talk about mundane things. It wasn't a common sight for her lips to be this loose, and I was enjoying every moment of it. I also want her to feel comfortable with me when she finally decided to open up."I've always added cereal to milk. Never knew it was a source of argument until now..." I couldn't keep myself from smiling as I listened to her. If not that I was trying my best to savour this moment, her voice would have lulled me to sleep. "Now tell me your favourite colour."I smiled, my eyes falling to her hair. It looks so fucking beautiful on her. She had a bit of freckles dusted on the tip of her nose, same colour with her hair. Absolutely breathtaking. Then her eyes. They remind me of a green gemstone, something so precious... as she was.My usually favourite colours were solid colours. Black, white, navy blue, colours like that. But now... "I appreciate a go

  • Alpha's Obsession: His caged Luna    Chapter 16: Everything about you

    Desmond's POVI'd always found Raine beautiful since the moment I laid my eyes on her, but tonight, she did a whole lot of justice to that fact. I had to stop myself from outrightly gaping at her, and calm my raging wolf, control my eyes from changing colours and keep my twitching hands to myself.

He didn't help by asking that question that seemed to shift my world from his axis fo

    Raine's POVStaying with Sienna was the best thing that had happened to me in a very long time. I thought she was going to find me an apartment within the pack, but she let me stay in her pack house. She gave me the space I needed and made me comfortable. I had no fear of waking up and meeting Alph
