CASPIAN'I love you Caspian.'Her words echoed in my mind again and again, sweeter than any melody, filling me with happiness.They weren’t just empty words. I could see the truth in her eyes... the way they shined with love or the sincerity in her eyes said it all.But I needed more. I needed to feel it.I needed proof that her confession was real, not just my imagination.My hands gripped her waist tightly, pulling her against me. The heat between us surged, almost becoming unbearable, making it hard to breathe.I leaned down and kissed her on the lips. My kisses becoming hot and fiery, urging her to respond back.Mmm.... Her lips were soft.. too soft. Too sweet like honey. I kissed her harder, letting the emotions in me pour into the kiss. Letting her feel what she is doing to me, how unhinged she made me. Every nerve in my body came alive when Aliza started kissing me back.Then she moaned. A seductive, needy sound that snapped something inside me. I bit her on the lower li
ALIZA Did he know?If so... then I was done for.I pretended to write something on my notepad, randomly scribbling on it, though my mind was doing cartwheels, trying to recall what they were discussing.His eyes drifted from my face to the notepad.Oh no... No no no.I reacted a second too late and tried to cover the notepad, to hide the written words but he still caught it.I know he had—because his lips curled into a sexy smirk. The kind that made my cheeks burn and made it nearly impossible to think straight.But thankfully he didn't say anything and turned his attention back to business.I cursed internally.Stupid. Idiot.Why had I written that?For a moment, I didn’t know whether to feel relieved or not. Lior watched the entire exchange between us, his gaze moved from Caspian to me. "Sorry" he mumbled in a low voice, feeling guilty and apologetic.I shook my head and gave him a soft smile to lessen his worries. “It’s okay,” I whispered back. And I meant it. He didn’t do it on
ALIZAThe maroon corset hugged my figure in all the right places, exuding seductive charm and allure. But it was the tailored black blazer layered over it that elevated my entire look. Sleek and sophisticated, yet it added the perfect touch of mystery, concealing just enough to tease. It was elegance laced with temptation.Mia really was a magician when it came to styling.Then came the knock on the door, just at the right moment.I took one last glance in the mirror, smoothing down my outfit, my heart beating in anticipation.Mia raised a brow, excitement flashing in her eyes as if watching something interesting, she “Showtime,” she said with a smirk, already going to open the door.The door opened... and there stood Caspian.Dressed in a sleek grey blazer and trousers, paired with a black fitted T-shirt that hugged his torso just right. Effortlessly elegant, dangerously confident.Damn.My brain short-circuited for a second.He looked like every woman’s fantasy and every man’s t
ALIZAWe were all gathered in Caspian’s office, the room was with tension. Caspian sat at his chair, his expression serious as he looked between the rest of us.“There’s still no progress,” he said, with a frown on his face. “Even after so many days… no leads on Ray’s uncle or the ones behind him.”“That means those bastards are being careful now. They have laid low since their plan failed,” Caleb muttered, leaning back in his chair, fingers tapping the table in thought.Mia’s jaw clenched, her eyes dark with anger. “It’s grating on my nerves. I want those fuckers to pay. And soon.”Caleb reached out, placing a hand on her back, rubbing circles to calm her down.“Relax, babe. We’ll get them.. just wait a little more.” he said softly, pressing a kiss to her lips.Mia responded back to the kiss, her fingers clutching his shirt in a tight grip.. but just as things were about to heat up, they both remembered where they were and pulled apart sheepishly.“Guys, please…” Caspian said, shakin
ALIZAI hit the ground hard and winced in pain just as her fist connected to the side of my face, the impact knocking the air from my lungs.“Focus Aliza! Or do you think your enemy will wait for you to be alright first before fighting?” Mia snapped yet again.I felt like a failure.She was right. In battle, there were no pauses, no second chances.Just pure survival.I gritted my teeth.. forcing myself to endure the pain as I pushed myself off the ground. My fingers curled into fists.. as I steadied myself and faced her again, with determination shining in my eyes.Mia lunged at me once again, her attacks fast, precise and more brutal than before… but this time I was ready. My sharp reflexes and instincts begin kicking in.I started observing her moves.. as I started to block and counter her attacks more effectively. I ducked under as threw her next punch and aimed a swift kick at her shin.. but she jumped back, evading it effortlessly.The fight turned intense, although I wasn’t as g
THIRD PERSONAliza’s Grandmother, Fiora, stood near the tall, glass window of her cabin in the Elders’ Council, enjoying the morning sunshine.She was lost in her thoughts, her fingers absentmindedly tracing the rim of the teacup in her hands.A knock sounded at the door, breaking the quiet atmosphere.“Come in.” She said in an authoritative voice, turning toward the door as the door opened and one of her men walked in.He bowed to her first, then started reporting respectfully.“Elder Princess Aliza is doing well in the Cresent Moon Pack. She has adjusted to the life within the pack but… there is still no progress with the return of her memories.”Elder Fiora nodded at him.“What is it?” she said after observing that he had more to report but seemed hesitant.“Elder Pricess she… she seems close to Alpha Caspian.” He said lowering his head as he shifted on his feet, clearly uneasy.Although Elder Fiora’s face stayed calm and unreadable.. but her sharp and calculating eyes darkened sli
