ALTHEA. “I said, apologizing is not enough. What you did requires some punishment, Althea.” Blade’s breath fanned against the side of my head, his lips brushing against my skin. I felt a goosebump rise on my skin as my stomach churned. Did he mean that? I’d been thinking about this even a couple of hours later. After he said this, he gave me a kiss on my forehead and told me he needed more time with his warriors, so I was left with Thalia, who then showed me around the places just near the packhouse. I wanted to ask questions about the punishment, yet I was too embarrassed to do so, but after dinner, I couldn’t keep it anymore. “So, tell me, does the Alpha punish people when they violate rules?” I asked Thalia. We were seated in one of the rooms of the packhouse, where there was a beautiful fireplace, as we drank our evening tea. “Alpha Blade? He does. All Alphas do it to keep everyone on the line.” She answered. “Does he punish them in public?” “Public punishments are reser
ALTHEA. “Got your tongue tied, my little witch?” My little witch. I liked that. Aside from the fact that he licked those sinful lips, he sounded so sexy. But then I was too nervous to reply seductively. “Blade…” “Althea…” “I’m here about the punishment,” I said, looking at him straight in the eyes. “What about it? Do you want it now?” He asked as he raised an eyebrow. “I’m not going to let you hurt me. I did nothing wrong.” I told him right away. “Hmmm…” He mumbled, but I saw his mouth twitching into a smirk, and it was making my blood boil. “Shouldn’t the Luna be equal to her Alpha in all aspects?” I asked him, my voice laced with anger. “Yes.” He answered right away. “And why am I being punished and you’re not?” “What is my crime, little mate?” I paused and let my thoughts run free, making up reasons and deciding which one I could use for tonight. “You didn’t wake me up this morning before you went to work.” “I didn’t know I was supposed to wake you up.” He scoffed. “
BLADE. I’d been wanting to smile the whole time Althea was trying to explain and make up reasons why I shouldn’t punish her. But I didn’t because I didn’t want her to think I was making fun of her. Althea was like a breath of fresh air. I knew I shouldn’t be comparing, but she was making me feel something I had never felt before — even with Soledad. My first mate could make my heart flutter and spiral my lust into an overdrive. But Althea… She could make me smile even without trying. She was making my heart full in the innocent way she was throwing her words at me. She was making me feel young. I felt like a teenager looking at the female I had a crush on and just letting her talk, even if I couldn’t understand or hear everything she was saying. Just looking at her and the expression on her face was enough to make my day. I got hypnotized every fucking time, and for the longest time, I tried to fight it. And now, I felt good that I could finally just let it be. Althea could
BLADE. “One year, we can try. If, by the end of the year, we are still lost with this bond, I will let you go.” That was painful to say, but one year was better than nothing because I didn’t want her to leave. “I’m going to have another heat next week. Without Patrea, I’m not sure if my power is enough to knock me off so I won’t feel the burn.” She said, ignoring my last words. “Is it still painful even with my mark on you?” I asked, tilting my head to look at her. She nodded. “Lucy said, maybe because we didn’t mate yet. So maybe we should take it slow. So when my heat comes, you don’t fuck me so brutally that I might die.” “Die? What the fuck? Where are you getting these thoughts that you can die while having sex?” I growled. If she was reading this somewhere, she might be reading the wrong books. “Just imagine your cock that big!” She retorted before she balled her hand into a tight fist while she curled her point finger and thumb into the smallest circle possible. “And you pu
BLADE. “I want you to come for me, Blade…” She said so seductively that it made something within me snap. I growled as I bucked my hips forward, and Althea let out a whimper. My breathing hitched as I looked at her expression, but I couldn’t stop stroking in and out of her, but I was doing it slowly — fucking painfully slow. And then she smiled, although her eyes were watering. It was all I wanted to see. I slid my arm under her neck to hold her closer while her hands on my shoulders tightened. “Are you okay?” I asked after I pressed a kiss on her forehead. She nodded. “Feel free to hurt me, sweet angel,” I told her before I growled when she clenched her pussy around my cock. “I’m not sweet, Blade…” Yes, she was, but I didn’t argue with her. “But definitely my angel…” I said hoarsely. She smiled before she whimpered. Her eyes rolled as her nails dug into my skin. I was hurting her. “Allow me to go faster, or I might lose control because this pace is... fucking t
ALTHEA.My lashes fluttered before my eyes snapped open. My forehead was leaning on something hard, and something heavy was around my body. But despite that, I felt comfortable and well-protected. Blade’s masculine scent that was swirling around me was so addicting that instead of taking his heavy arms off me, I hugged him tighter and pressed my face on his chest, letting some of his chest hair tickle my face as I took a whiff of his scent.He was snoring, and I couldn’t help the soft giggles erupting from my throat. No wonder he needed a big room. His snoring would be enough to collapse a small one. I smiled as I wondered why it didn’t destroy my small cabin in the mountains or the room we shared at the Fortuna Coven.He probably didn't sleep, or I would have heard him. I pressed a kiss on his chest before I tilted my head up and saw his face above. He was handsome. Not the boy next door type handsome or the prince charming type that would sweep you off your feet in a red carpet s
ALTHEA. I wanted to call Lucy. As soon as I got to the room, I closed the door and grabbed the receiver to dial the Mystic Pack phone number. Lucy gave me her office number, but no one was picking up there. It was only a quarter past seven, and she might be asleep. But I had to try. I waited some more, as I was sure her phone line would automatically transfer to Alpha Adan’s office if she didn’t pick up. “Alpha Stone,” the man said from the other line. And from the grumpiness in his voice, I was sure he didn’t appreciate someone calling him too early. “Alpha Stone,” I greeted. “Althea,” he chuckled. “What the fuck is Blade doing that he let you on the phone at this early?” I smiled bitterly, only for my eyes to water because I heard someone peppering the Alpha’s face with kisses, and I was sure it was Lucy. A tinge of jealousy crept into my heart. Will I be able to experience what they have? “Can I speak with Lucy?” I asked softly. “No. We haven’t had breakfast yet. I need
BETA DALTON. If I could smack the Alpha, I would. If this were an ordinary day and he was not destroying anything, I would. But I knew my Alpha. This was one of those days where he would not listen to anyone. My only hope was that Luna Althea would be able to calm him. But it looked like she couldn’t. Something happened this morning, and I knew she was lying when she said she knew nothing. Blade smelled of sex when he came down. And even after the sex scent faded, his scent was no longer his own. I had lived all my life with this man, so I knew what scent he carried. There was a mixture of someone else, and I was sure it was the Luna’s. They mated. They completed the mating process, so I fucking wonder why he was throwing a tantrum at the moment. Blade’s family had always valued their mate bonds, whether fated or chosen, so I was sure completing the mating process was important for him. So I’d been wracking my brain the whole morning about what could have possibly gone w
