"It's not easy for me to just forget everything and become your wife...mate...whatever you call it. I miss my daughter. Is there a way I can get her to stay with us? Or at least I can be in her life in some way?" She pleaded.
She saw a flash of anger in his eyes, but then he composed himself. "You still don't realise what you have become Serena, how you have changed or how powerful you are. You will be shunned for being a monster. Humans are frail, and a human baby...," he chuckled." You would break her like a twig." "Are you implying that I will harm my baby?" She said hotly. "Not intentionally. You are a young wolf, you can barely control your power. Even the slightest trigger would push your wolf into shifting. Tell me, if your daughter is harmed by your wolf. Will youThe night was chilly, by human standards. However, Serena didnt feel it anymore. Her werewolf skin could withstand low temperatures easily. The music from the grand hall wafted around Serena as she stood near the railing looking down into the forest. The ground was several feet below but she could land safely if she was careful. She had been practising running and jumping as a wolf. She was fast, very fast. Much faster than the pack's strongest beta. Speed was something God-given. Even as a human she was quick, although not quick enough to run from the rogue who attacked her.That brought her to her current turmoil. Why was it that the rogue chose her, the supposed fiery one and Dorcas saved her and also turned out to be her mate. Right before the rare blood moon when the prophecy would be fulfilled. Why was the series of coincidences so perfectly aligned? It seemed almost staged.She closed her eyes and tried to recall the evening she was attacked. Her brain dre
Serena had just slipped into her room when the knock came at her door and one of the senior female betas June entered followed by two omegas. June held a small golden chalice in her hand.“What is that?” Serena asked.“The Alpha has sent some sedatives to calm your nerves during the ceremony. It would only last for thirty minutes. You can drink it right before the walk to the Ceremonial Circle.” June replied.“Thank you, you can keep it on the table.”Serena was undressed and led to the bathroom, where she was submerged in a hot bath that smelled of vanilla and spice. Her body was scrubbed clean. After the bath, she was rubbed dry with fluffy towels and led back to the room. While the women prepared her for the ceremony, Serena prepared her escape plan.Dressed in a red silk gown, Serena stared at herself in the mirror. The two golden ribbons kept the flimsy material closed, and were there for the
2021, Alpha Ruben's office-There was pin-drop silence in the room as Serena finished narrating her story.“William and Sarah left along with me. It was never my plan to remain with my husband,” Serena continued. “I just wanted to ensure their safety, then disappear again. I couldn't stay with him. My disappearance had caused a big storm among the packs.”A chuckled broke her monologue.“I remember that wedding, Dorcas was so mad. Imagine your Luna running away right in the middle of the ceremony. It was the best wedding I have ever attended.” He laughed. Then saw the scowl on Ruben's face and shut up immediately.Serena continued.“We travelled South, ending up in New Orleans. Dorcas was constantly chasing me and I knew I would have to leave. William wanted me to stay. He truly loved me.” She said wistfully.“My body was undergoing changes that I didn't understan
"Buralo' the sign read. Sebastian smiled a bit. A bar owned by a wolf, how typical. Though it was fairly early in the evening the bar was busy. Men and women mingled throughout the space, some were clustered along the long wooden bar and others were either sitting at bistro tables or dancing to the music that pumped through the surrounding speakers. He made his way to the bar intending to ask for Andrea.He didn't have to make an effort to catch the attention of the bartender. They knew immediately that he was a vampire. A statuesque woman with sleek black hair and dark blue eyes came up to him. Her eyes widened with surprise. Probably, this was her first encounter with any vampire."Hi, what can I do for you?" She asked, a little agitated."I am looking for Andrea," he said over the din.The bartender's pretty eyes widened dramatically. She looked him over again, her eyes trailing from his intense grey eyes and roaming over his strong f
The kiss was so devastating that Andrea felt her knees tremble the instant Sebastian's mouth slanted over hers. Her wolf howled as his hot mouth lazily nudged hers, his tongue licked deliberately along her bottom lip before prying for entry. She sighed and parted her lips, allowing him to ravish her mouth. This was so wrong. She shouldn't be allowing this to happen, but all rational thoughts were out of her mind as his hands moved and began to slowly stroke down her bareback with furore.She moaned and moved closer to him, pressing her breasts against his hard chest. When his hands reached the curve of her ass he pulled her lower body towards him, spreading his legs, so he could fit her between them. Her moan increased up a notch as his mouth continued to ravage hers. Her body connected with the hard mound of his erection. The proof of his desire.She was intoxicating, her soft curves molded perfectly against his raging hard-on. It was enough to make him tremble with n
"Your mother was a decent woman, naive but she had a good heart. She died too young. Just 200 years old. That's such a tragedy." Elizabeth said dramatically. It was a touchy subject for Ruben, both his parents had died in a plane crash 70 years ago. It happened long ago but it's still hurt him. "Serena claims that my mother and she had become good friends but mom refused to support her when she was on the run." "Oh! that was such a terrible affair, the poor girl was kidnapped and forced to become a wolf. But she should have been thankful about it. Being a wolf is an honour." Beth said, proudly. Ruben rolled his eyes," right! so coming back to the point what exactly happened back then?" "After Serena ran away, the council had split between those who supported the dark wolves and those who didn't. Finding and mating with a fiery one would have brought prosperity for the werewolves hence it was very important." "By kidnapping and fo
Lisa was wrapped in strong arms as someone grabbed her from the floor. It took her a moment to collect herself, but the sense of safety vanished when she realized who had found her. She was looking into those green eyes. Ruben was kneeling bedside her holding her arms.His eyes were filled with genuine concern. Lisa was puzzled. She wiggled out of his grip and fell against the wall, bracing herself for his attack"Stay away from me!""What happened? Did someone hurt you?" He asked.He looked away from her and towards the open door. She tried to slide against the wall and slip away from him. She pressed her back as hard against the wall as she could. Her breathing was frantic and she felt like she was having a full-blown panic attack."Please tell me what's wrong?" He asked. He reached his hand out to put it on her shoulder and she almost fell over trying to avoid his touch."You....you tired too....."She looked down looking
"Does it hurt?" Hugo asked."Not really, I barely notice it," Lisa said.Hugo touched her neck and examined the mark. Finally when he was done Ruben let himself relax."How long has it been since you were bitten ?""One week," Ruben replied."It's been very long since anyone saw Dorcas or the dark wolves. They do attack a few packs sometimes but no one has interacted much with them. It seems like Dorcas is more powerful than we expected." Hugo said."But why does he want Lisa?" Ruben asked."I am not sure but I believe it's something to do with her bloodline. She is the descendent of the fiery one. ""So? How does that matter? I have many descendants. " Serena interjected. "Unless she is the other fiery one." She suddenly stopped and looked at Lisa. Her eyes widened."You have the mark too?"Lisa looked flustered and exchanged glances with Ruben. What was she supposed to answer?'Just say
