Lyric Adams pov Sleeping soundly, I was startled awake at the bedroom door exploding into shreds of splintered wood. I sat up and saw my father. “CESAN! YOU BASTARD!” Sin roared as electrical sparks began to whip around him. Just as he was about to unleash them on Cesan, I jumped over to block my mate and felt the bolts hit my back, then hissed between my clenched teeth. Cesan's eyes were wild as he stared worriedly at me, but instead of reassuring him, I turned my head and growled at my dad. “What the fuck, Dad?!” Sin's arms fell to his side as he cursed. “What have you done, Cesan?” He groveled, causing me to furrow my brow. I noticed that my Crescent Moon mark was illuminated and thought it was cool. “You mean this?” I asked as I lifted my moon mark toward him. “He means that you absorbed his bolt and should be dead, “ Cesan explained. I gasped as I clutched the covers to my bare chest. Flipping around to face my dad I asserted, “You were going to Kill My MATE! You ass
Lyric Adams pov The office evaporated from my sight, and my bedroom appeared. I was suddenly frightened and in disbelief at how we arrived. “How, how…did you do that?” I stammered as Cesan strode purposefully before me with a grin on his face. Seeing the terrified look in my eyes, he cupped my face in both of his palms as he gazed lovingly at me. “My sweet Lyric, I love you far too much to put a Daray target on your back,” he asserted kindly, causing my brow to crease. “So you didn't bring me here to fuck me?” I blurted and he hissed. “I would make love to you, not fuck. Fucking is an act void of deep emotions and done for simple pleasure only,” he growled as if deeply insulted. I lowered my eyes from his intense ones, but he tilted my chin up and pressed his lips possessively against my own, causing my eyes to widen. Kissing him back, I was lost in the feelings it was causing as a fire ignited deeply within my soul. Reaching up, my fingers touched his silky hair, and a moan r
Lyric Adams pov Lying back down, I reached for the pillow Cesan had used and pulled it to my nose. Sniffing it, I closed my eyes, recalling his words when I had smelled it before near him. “Why would he deny his own scent?” “Especially one so unique and intriguing,” Ojani sighed, causing me to snicker. “Perhaps it's fermented due to his age,” I chimed, making her snort her chuckle. Waiting impatiently for Cesan to return, I scooted out of bed and then scurried into the ensuite to take care of my personal business. Seeing the black robe still hanging on the hook, I grabbed it and put it on. My dress, which I had taken off earlier, was nowhere to be found, meaning Holly must have come into the room and gotten it during the night. “I wonder if she saw Cesan in bed with me,” I murmured softly as I sat on the edge of the mattress. “If so, she will inform your father, and he will have words with you and Cesan,” my wolf warned, causing me to furrow my brow and frown. “It was inno
Lyric Adams pov I shifted in front of Frost and, taking the dress from his hand, slipped on over my nudity before walking into our home. It was dark, so I had to use my wolf eyes to see my way. Waiting for Cesan at the first step of the stairs, I giggled at seeing him walking inside with only his loincloth covering him. “Are you starting a new fashion trend?” I snorted, and he rolled his bright green eyes at me. “Sure, why not? It's easier to shift when you're practically naked,” he quipped as he headed toward me. “We need to discuss the parentage of your pup, Lyric. Since Camden is its father, he will have rights,” he asserted in all seriousness, causing the humor to fall from my face. “But he chose Jasmine and should lose his rights,” I stressed. Giving me a sympathetic nod, Cesan sighed and said, “We can deal with it when and if he follows through with trying to take it. Right now, Daray is a greater concern than Camden. After his words, he stepped past me and continued u
Lyric Adams pov “Please release me, now that you know that Lucas isn't a threat,” I demanded but could tell he was having an inner dialog with Cesan. “This is so annoying, “ I murmured, and felt him lift me up further and wrap his entire arm around me possessively. Thankfully, we reached the trees, and Frost set me to my feet. “Shift Luna” he asserted. Giving him a scathing once-over, I twirled my finger at him to turn around. Narrowing his eyes, he huffed, “You were all for me letting it hang loose, but now you're acting virtuous?” Rolling my eyes, I cursed, then lifted my dress off. As I leaned over to remove my shoes, I heard him inhale sharply and grumble about waiting. For a moment, I was uncertain about who he was speaking about, but I grinned slightly when he tapped the side of his head and told me Cesan. Grinning at him, I shifted into Ojani and shook out my fur. Looking at Frost, I stepped back, seeing his eyes glowing down at me and a hungry look on his face
Lyric Adams pov Side-eyeing Cesan and seeing him walking strangely, I furrowed my brow at him. We had reached the tree-lined, and Ojani was chomping for my shift. “Is there something wrong with you? Did your hips give out?" Pffting me, he shook his head before growling, “I'm in perfect shape and have NO issues whatsoever.” After his declaration, Cesan adjusted himself and stood up straight. I pinched my mouth seeing the outline of his erection. “Do you have your loincloth?” I asked curiously with my eyes, still focused on the bulge below his belt. “No, I left before grabbing it from my room,” he muttered. “I can tie your shirt around your waist if you want,” I offered, bringing his concerned eyes to mine. “Ah, well, um, I, shit…give me a few moments, and you can,” he stammered. Snickering, I told him that he didn't have to concern himself over his manly parts. “It wouldn't be the first twig and berries I had seen on a Lycan, and there will be many out this eveni
