The campus was busy. Busier than I had expected when I had imagined it, I think. Though, we had arrived on a day that there was a sports match taking place, so from what I understood that did add to the capacity of people that passed through. Who knew? I sure did not… Maybe I had led a somewhat sheltered life having lived within the pack, so being brought to this chaotic new surrounding may take more than a little getting used to.
I could see my older brother’s eyes darting around as we moved to the small area of campus in which my apartment sat, and he still had that same displeased expression upon his face. I did not think he was going to have anything but a disgruntled expression on that face of his the entire time we were here in all honesty, because he did not think this was the right decision for me. But, Marcus was trying harder to be postive.
“The sun is shining, that tells you the moon goddess is blessing you with her prese
Six months later “Oh my God! Lach, look!” Seren squealed, for about the hundredth time that day. I looked to her with a smile. I could see that same sheer joy upon her face that had been there each time she had done it previously, and it melted my heart.“What, beautiful?” I asked, despite the fact I knew exactly what she was pointing to. The Eiffel Tower was literally down the street from where we were, as we walked along the River Seine. We were within our first week of travelling, and every single thing of interest that Seren had passed she pointed out with such excitement and enthusiasm. She made me smile. I loved seeing her so happy. And travelling was making her happy. I was so glad it was something we were able to do together.She was doing amazingly within her college course. Looking at her predicted grades I could see her acing the whole course. Seeing her succeed was a goal of mine. I wanted
I laid alongside Seren, having all but collapsed on top of her. My breathing erratic, my body trembling alongside her as I came down from the sheer bliss of what had just occurred. I had been able to mark her. My wolf was strong enough to mark her! Seren was finally mine! My heart soared with the idea… I knew I had wanted to make her mine, but with Tyr being absent for as long as he had been I did not know when that may be possible...Simply agreeing we would complete out matebond had been enough for me, but knowing we were now officially mates, and feeling that matebond snap into place was something else. That connection... I never want to lose her. I know previously I had questioned why the Moon Goddess had chosen Seren for me, but now I knew. Because she was always meant to be mine. After today there was no denying that.She was perfect. She was my missing piece and I had just never realised it. Only now, with her here by my side did I real
Feeling Lachlan’s lips on mine once more felt heavenly. In everything that had happened between us I was beginning to think it would never happen. But now that he was here and he was kissing me, I don't think I ever wanted him to stop.He moaned once more against my mouth as I ran my hands along his sides down to his waistband. The weight of his body upon mine eased momentarily as he slipped his trousers off leaving him in nothing but his pants. I felt a rush of heat hitting my body as my eyes drifted over him. I think I forgot how perfect this man was. I traced my fingers gently across his toned abs, and watched as he shivered under my touch, before he found my lips once more with his own. I would never tire of his touch.His own hands teasing the curves of my body, playing with the fabric of my panties, causing me to arch my hips in encouragement each time he did so. Lachlan chuckled against my lips now, before teasing once again at the fabric of my panties but
Seren and I walked hand in hand across the pack. Something neither one of us had done before, and damn it felt good. There were a few raised brows from the occasional pack member we passed along the way, likely wondering what was going on. Because, despite the messy situation we had found ourselves in, I knew that Marcus and our families had done all they could to try to keep it quiet. Though rumours were spreading, I had known that. We were a close knit community, and gossip spread like wildfire. Seren and I had been a hot topic of gossip from what I could gather. Even with those rumours that had been spreading, seeing the two of us together had to be a sight nobody had expected…But, whatever anyone was thinking, I did not care. I knew they likely had written off us. Our matebond. But we had found a way to make things work. The moon goddess had chosen us for a reason. Seren was the one meant for me. I just wished I had seen it sooner.“This feels so good.” I whispered gently, as we
I finished on the phone to college, confirming they could email the work for me from each of my classes for the remainder of this week, again me citing health issues, and them being more than understanding, though I knew I needed to sort my life out in these remaining days this week, and focus upon my college work going forward once my life was in order. I did not want to risk my education, and knew I may be pushing my luck with their understanding. But, right now my priority was my mate. My matebond. And ensuring we were strong.I wandered out of the kitchen, only to find my Mum lingering by the lounge door. A look upon her face that told me she still had things she wanted to say. I had already told her I did not appreciate her interference, and she instantly defended everything she had done. Little had she known the mess it had caused. Little had she seem to care either. Her frustration and irritation toward Lachlan still lingered, even as I explained ever
I awoke to an empty bed and realised Seren was gone. For a small moment I could not help but wonder if I had imagined all of what had happened… nothing but a dazed dream brought on by my anger and stupor the day before. But her scent still lingers heavy in the air, and I am certain I am not imagining that. Could my mind trick me so well? And as I rolled onto my side to ease myself from my bed, I see a note upon my bedside table, confirming that, in fact, last night had happened...-----------------------------Lach,You were sleeping so peacefully and I didn't want to disturb you. I think resting will be good for you. I needed to head home and have a shower. Freshen up. Put some things right with family. I also have classes I need to fix. But I will be back.And then we need to talk. Figure out what is next.Ren.-----------------------------My eyes dart across the paper upon which she had scrawled. So many q
I felt a contented sigh as Lachlan’s breathing altered slightly. Was he falling back to sleep? Maybe that wasn’t all so much of a bad thing. I had laid here for all of five minutes. Both of us in silence. But for once it had been a comfortable one. Something ad certainly changed between us...Marcus had linked to check we were okay and I said that we were. That we were talking, despite the silence. I think more talking would come, but it had to come when Lachlan felt ready. I did not want to push him to breaking again. I hated that he had come to that.I went to slide away from him to allow myself to go and get a drink. “Where are you going?” He murmured, and I found myself smiling, as I twisted onto my side so I was now facing him.“I thought you were sleeping.” I whispered.“Ah, so you thought you would run away again, huh?” He said, but there was lightness in his tone, I knew he was teasing.&ldquo
am surrounded by blackness. I don't know why. Blackness. My body aches. But her scent was there. Tickling at my senses. How is that even possible? I had left her. She was not with me. I could not bear to be near her. Feeling that pain. Terrified what I may say... what I may do. I left. Angry. Hurt. Confused. I stormed away. I smashed the house up… hadn’t I? I wasn’t even sure now. What was real and what wasn't? Everything seemed somewhat of a blur, and my head hurt a little.I felt a gentle pressure upon my hand, causing my eyes to flicker. My eyelids felt like lead weights but I forced them open. Wait… I was in my bed? How did I get here?My eyes adjusted to the dim light from the glow of my beside lamp. It is her. The scent was coming from her... So am I dreaming it? So desperate to fix the mess I had created I have conjured Seren up within my head to allow that to happen? Am I losing my mind? I know I think my wolf is dying but could I now
Soon enough I was driving down the familiar road to pack. My hands were trembling and I felt a little sick. I did not know what I would be walking into and nobody was willing to answer my damn calls…Corey, bless him, had called me the moment I had got on the road to check I was doing okay. As soon as I had begun to walk away from him he had run after me, offering to drive with me. He gave me a hug, while telling me he was worried I should not be alone in the state I was in. I understood his concern, but I had told him I would be fine. Arriving on pack to try to help Lachlan with the guy he had seen me with as he stormed away was not going to be the smartest of moves,I knew that much. Not to mention Maia was already becoming agitated at the thought of Lachlan being unwell. The not knowing was sending her over the edge. Having another guy around, another guy we now knew was a wolf would only make her worse. I needed to be logical.So that had be
