DAMON
It was a few days since everything had gone down. Me and Liam were in Nina’s room, that had been cleared out. We hadn't found anything more from her room, which was so damn clean you could smell it. The room had been emptied, giving her stuff to her grandmother if she wanted them. She refused and said to get rid of them, although I knew that was more her respect towards the pack because she was devastated at her granddaughter's truth and death.
To think she was living here with so much hatred in her life…
I walked over to the window. It looked out towards the training grounds, and I wondered how much time she spent here watching us, or Liam. Even in such a place, behind such an innocent mask, there was a killer, burning from within with hatred and vengeance…
There are all types of masks that those around us wear; masked by our fake smiles and passive expressions, the lies hidden inside, the pain we hide to pretend we are normal… the jealousy, th
Thank you for reading and trusting the process! Thanks for all the pretty gems and a final reminder that today is the last day to use your current gems before the month resets!
SIX WEEKS LATER… RAVEN “Liam, be careful!” I shouted in alarm as he almost knocked over the tub of paint that stood on the ladder. “Oops, that was close…” He said. I looked at him in his ripped jeans and hit shirtless state, with splashes of paint all over him… He was making my stomach knot. Goddess… I wanted him… I had just come off my period and after the scare from weeks ago, I was now on contraception, which I was taking religiously! But getting my period also meant I had gone without sex for a few days, and I craved it. “Like the view, love?” He asked, running his fingers through his hair. “Oh, I'm definitely loving the view…” I countered licking my lips as I climbed down from the ladder and walked over to him. We had decided to get Grandma Amy’s place completely renovated before we moved in here, until of course we have pups and then we’d need more space, but for now, we were both happy to wait and just enjoy each
LIAM I picked her up, slinging her over my shoulder and stroking her ass in that tiny thong. Damn… As the days went by, she had become more and more confident. She was normally a tease but, in the bedroom… Fuck she was a whole new level. She knew what she wanted and she wasn’t afraid to ask for it. I kicked the bedroom door shut behind me before walking over to the bed. I tapped her ass lightly, dropping her onto the bed and making her bounce a little, my eyes going to her breasts in that sexy strappy bra that was teasing me way too fucking much… Her eyes stayed on me as she got on all fours, swinging her legs in those heels slowly as she wriggled her hips, making me swallow hard as I stared at her ass. "What’s wrong, Alpha? Not going to join me?" She teased smirking as she stared at my hardened shaft in my jeans, before crawling towards me as I pulled my top off. "I fucking am." I growled as she began to unbuckle my belt, now kneeling
OVER TEN MONTHS LATER… RAVEN "Zuzu, careful my darling!" I exclaimed, grabbing her as she almost tumbled to the ground. "Waven, I’m a big girl now." She stated firmly. "Still, I don’t need you getting hurt." I said, looking down at the stacks of supplies that had arrived. We were all over at the Blue Moon territory; the buildings were up and the furniture was partially in. Things had been great, and we all knew how the pack was going to be divided. Originally Liam was going to take leadership again a month ago as he had proven himself, but he had refused his father saying he wanted Uncle El to make him and Damon Alphas together. It was perfect, this way it wasn’t Liam giving him something, but two brothers taking their titles together. The official Alpha ceremony would take place in a few days time. As for us three, we were doing great. The more weeks and months passed, the more we were back to how we used to be. Damon
RAVEN Zack and Taylor had just left, so I was clearing up. I pursed my lips, glancing at Liam who had been silent since Robyn had left, deep in thought. "You could have handled that a little better... In the kitchen, really, Liam?" I asked frowning slightly. He’d said to me earlier that he’d tell her before she left, I didn’t think he’d do it in here! I’d expected him to take it outside. My words seemed to snap him out of his thoughts, and he looked at me. "I’d kept my voice down. Only Damon heard. You and Zack were too busy with Taylor." "That’s still not nice, Liam." I persisted softly, walking over to him. He smiled slightly, and that knowing look that I often saw in his eyes lately was there again. "It made Damon go after her. If I took it outside, she would have left alone." I raised an eyebrow questionably as Liam began washing the plates. "Are you playing cupid? Liam don’t-" "I'm not… I'm
KIARA The evening had passed in merriment; with the hustle and bustle of children playing and laughing, adults teasing and chatting, and the warmth of a pleasant night hung in the air. It was now finally time for them to take their oaths. Mum and Dad were on the stage, with Liam, Raven and Damon now making their way onto the stage. Looking at them on either side of Raven... I wondered what if things had been different, Damon would have still been an Alpha… but it seemed he didn’t need a mate to get that title, he was meant to be one… ‘Can’t stand the fucker.’ Alejandro’s voice came through the link. I raised an eyebrow. ‘I thought you’d be over that by now, my sexy beast.’ I questioned, caressing the back of his neck as I kissed his cheek. ‘Once a fucker always a fucker, but I guess he deserves the title, he was a good Beta when Liam was on his training.’ I smiled slightly and nodded. Yes, he was. ‘I’m glad you see that
DAMONIt had been a few weeks since I had become Alpha, and although we were now two packs, we were still all over the place as there was still some stuff left to set up in my pack.My pack... It still felt surreal to say that.It was the night of the Blood Moon, and we were all over at the Westwood’s. Aunty and Uncle were leaving tomorrow for their six week holiday and would be back just before Kiara’s wedding. A holiday Liam had really pushed them into agreeing to. Aunty Red had been a little worried about Azura, but with everyone reassuring them, they were doing this, and they really damn needed it."Careful with the glasses, Zuzu." Raven was saying, looking at Azura who was balancing four glasses in her arms.She looked as beautiful as ever, yet there was no ache in my chest when I looked at her. It kind of felt weird that I ever had feelings for her. Yes, I still loved her, but definitely just as a friend."Did she wash her
DAMON Robyn was my mate. I felt as if the moon goddess truly wanted me to be happy… The one woman who treated me as her number one. The one woman that I still thought of yet didn’t dare approach, knowing that she still loved me. I figured that out the other night when Liam had told her she couldn’t be Delta… and as much as I had felt something for her, I didn’t want to hurt her knowing her mate was out there and I didn’t deserve her. But… I was her mate, she was my second chance and I was not going to let it slip away. "I don’t trust this." Her vulnerable whisper made my heart ache. "Then, explain to me why, more than a year on… you’re the only woman I see as more as just a woman." I murmured, kissing her neck, her tempting fresh citrus scent making my head go light. "Let me show you what you mean to me…" Her heart was racing, her breasts straining against my T-shirt were heaving, and the shape of her nipples made my dick twitch.
A ROYAL WEDDING RAVEN The wedding of the decade had arrived, and guests from all corners of the country were teeming into the king’s territory for the occasion. Women in glamourous gowns from the latest designers, and men in custom-tailored suits and tuxes, were pouring into the grand open grounds below. My heart was racing as I stared out of the huge windows at the stunning, breath-taking view down below. It was magical. To the left was the table set for the reception dinner, decorated impressively. More guests would arrive later for the reception. Round tables were covered in blush-coloured tablecloths with matching chairs, garlands of ivory flowers and ribbons of white fabric creating a roof above. To the far side were the dance floor and the cake. Right ahead to the right was the aisle, with a carpet of the palest shades of pink and white roses leading from the entrance of the mansion all the way up to the dais, where they would take their
