CHAPTER FIFTEENMIRA"You changed a little too much," Jeremy teased me. "I wonder how you recognised me the moment you set eyes on me." I was happy to finally be able to ask him that. It had always been something that got me wondering. How he recognised me was a mystery. Meanwhile, the main person who was supposed to recognise me and have my name ring a bell in his head didn't. "How would I not? I had a long crush on you for years, but you would not get it." I chuckled. I was not sure if he was playing with me right now or if he was serious. I decided not to pay attention to Jeremy. He was probably trying to be naughty. "Well," I said as I leaned towards Jeremy. "Are you going to tell Lesley about me now?" Jeremy scoffed. "Why would I do that?" We had been seated in Jeremy's room since after breakfast. Although, I didn't eat breakfast with them because I was too angry with Lesley. I had asked the maids to serve my breakfast in my room, but Mia ended up eating the dish alone.
CHAPTER SIXTEEN MIRAJeremy's hands slowly moved down my thigh. He grabbed my thigh and pulled me closer. Our lips were still locked together as we continued to kiss each other passionately. My hands were securely wrapped around his neck, while his, digged into my body. He grabbed my boobs and squeezed them gently. I moaned into his mouth, and wet liquid poured out from me. I grabbed him more tightly as I felt his hands moving up my thighs. I was already breathing heavily. I feared that my moans would be heard from other rooms, so I shut my mouth tightly and tried to swallow every sound in. He gently pushed me back against the bed and ran his hands around my hair. Jeremy buried his lips on my boobs and began to suck on them. I grabbed his head tightly and pressed my lips together. I moaned out softly, restricting the air and sounds that came out of my lips. I wanted to push Jeremy away. I wanted him to stop what he was doing right away, but I could not bring myself to tell him th
CHAPTER SEVENTEEN JEREMYThe entirety of the next day uneventful as I stayed back in my room all day.Although I didn’t have engage in much physical activities, I still could not stop the wandering that went on in my mind. If was difficult for me to get my mind off the event that conspired between Mira and I last night. I didn’t know if I had planned or wanted it, but at this point, I knew that I wanted to do it over and over again with her, I wanted her over and over again.I equally didn’t know if this feeling was right or wrong, considering the past we shared, especially the past she shared with Lesley. But that did not stop me from desiring her.I stood up from the bed I was lying on and went over to stand by the window. The sun was already starting to rise, giving a hint at dawn. I had no idea why, but the beautiful burst of orange colour that filled the sky that morning somehow did much to remind me of Mira.Beautiful, soft, delicate, sweet and mesmerising, but yet, resilient.
Chapter 18 CHAPTER EIGHTEEN LESLEY I paced my room with a racing heart. I was sweating even though my AC was turned on. I didn't know what bothered me, but I knew that I was bothered about something. Too many thoughts flooded my mind, and I could not even put anything together. The rogues had not attacked for a while now, and it was an improvement even though it was also a bother. We didn't know what their plans were. I knew that my soldiers were supposed to be training rather than relaxing. The surprising thing was that I was not bothered because of the rogues. There was something else that gave me a very serious course to worry about, and I could not place my finger on what it was. I decided to clear my head rather than pace my room all day worrying about the reason I was depressed. I walked towards my table and picked up my phone. I dialled Tasha's number, hoping that she would pick up. Luckily, she did. I breathed out heavily before speaking. "I need you in my room right away," I
CHAPTER NINETEENAPLHA LESLEY I was finally in the meeting room with Jeremy and the rest of the pack elders. We were deliberating on Mira's issue. I didn't know why I was suddenly tense and restless. "I do not know why you have so much faith in that woman. Would she be able to save our pack? Come on?" "I thought we talked about this before?" Jeremy interrupted. His eyes were glued on me as he asked the question. I had made a mistake. I lied to Jeremy that I had already talked to the elders about it, and they agreed that Mira should come into the pack and save everyone. I only talked to a few elders. They had doubts, but they agreed to give her a trial. "What makes you think that an ordinary woman like her would be able to save this pack?" An elder argued. "We have tried different mediums. We have consulted different healers, and they were only able to tell us fortune without giving solutions." "Some even gave us fake portions to take. Instead of making our warriors stronger during the
CHAPTER TWENTYJEREMY "Take her bags inside," I ordered the guards. They packed up Celia's bags and began walking inside with them. Celia turned to me and hugged me tightly. I spoke to her dad the previous night before they arrived in the morning. They were going on a trip and wanted me to take care of their daughter until their return. The alpha and his wife left their pack under the care of their beta, and now they were keeping their daughter under my care. "You have to watch over her until I am back. Do not let her out of your sight." "Mom?" Celia stressed. "I am no longer a child." I smiled. If only she had heard everything her dad had said to me the previous night about keeping her safe and all. She would not complain about this tiny statement her mom had just made. After her parents left, I led her into the house. Celia and I had a lot of catching up to do. I organised the maids to prepare a room for her. I picked the closest room to my room so that I would be able to watch afte
CHAPTER TWENTY ONEMIRA "I love you Mira, with every part of me. " Jeremy's words replayed in my head as his image enveloped my thoughts. I could feel the race of my heart beeping faster than I could imagine. The sun ray shined upon my face as I realized I was dreaming all along, yet the thoughts of Jeremy was as real as though he was with me, I couldn't get over the thoughts of how he thrusted in and out of me the day we had sex. I knew I would fall more for Jeremy if I continued to see him. I was avnel to convince myself that avoiding Jeremy was the best option. Whenever I saw Jeremy walking towards me, I quickly did a turn. I avoided the kitchen and dinning because of him. I didn't want to fall deeper in love with Jeremy because it would only make things worse. I wouldn't be able to concentrate on any other thing aside from Jeremy. I inhaled deeply as I shut my eyes letting the thoughts continue to drown me. He made me feel the real woman I am, how more could I get over the feeling
CHAPTER TWENTY TWO LESLEY I sat in the sparsely litted room. My hands spread wide open across the couch. My friends Jimmy and Mike were there, too. We had been together for years, and whenever we got together like this, it was only to cause mayhem or something worse. We usually forgot all out pains, and this was the part where I'd completely forget that I had issues going on in the pack. "Whenever it was Mike's turn to pick a dare for either of us, he usually went extreme with it," Jimmy teased Mike. I laughed out. I tried to control the way I laughed. The lady kneeling in front of me had my cock in her hand. The pleasure I felt there was another level, but I tried not to pay too much attention to it. He hands caressed my cock freely sending g shivers down my spine. She leaned in and dipped it down into her throat while I rolled my eyes and bit my lips. My friends also had women kneeling in front of them, and doing something to their cocks. One would not understand the pressure down th
CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR NARRATOR The three brothers were together, trying to wrap their heads around what was going on. Martin seemed very pissed. He paced the room angrily as he kicked whatever got in his way. The brothers could hear the soldiers training in the training ground. They were in the resting room beside the training ground. He had called the brothers in there immediately as soon as they gathered for the training. "I wonder why you let things get to this extent without calling me to tell me." Martin was spitting fire. He had been scolding Lesley ever since he walked into the room. Lesley just stood at a spot with both hands behind his back. His head was bowed. "How did you even let things get this bad?" Martin turned away from Lesley and faced Jeremy now. It was time for Jeremy to get his own taste of the medicine. "And you!" He accused him as he approached him with a fierce tone. "How could you keep something as important as this from me? You know Lesley's ego would not let
CHAPTER THIRTY THREE JEREMY "How come we never kissed in the long run? Even though we played the role of husband and wife during a school drama some years ago." Celia and I had been in her room for a while now. She had been talking about different things from our childhood. She seemed to be in the mood to remember things that morning. She had a very retentive memory. There were a few things she recalled that I would not have remembered if she hadn't mentioned them. I didn't even remember a few things she spoke about at all. Her sudden question about us kissing left me speechless. I didn't have any reply to the question that she had just asked. Celia burst out in laughter and tapped my shoulder playfully. "Did you see that look on your face?" She asked while struggling to get hold of herself. "I mean, it was a joke. You shouldn't take things too seriously." I giggled. "Nah, I was just thinking about it. I just wanted to know the reason, too." Celia was smiling. "Thinking about it tru
CHAPTER THIRTY TWO MIRA "How are we sure that this fetish woman is not playing some games with this pack?" I stopped once I heard the conversation from a corner of one of the Chambers. I was heading to the garden when I noticed that I was being discussed. Of course, I knew their conversation was about me. I stopped by the door and placed my ear close to the window to listen in on their conversation. "We have tried different means and got played several times. What makes them think we will trust this woman? What makes her different from others who have played us in the past?" "I don't think I want to be fooled by anyone else. We should not become so desperate that we begin to look and act very miserable. As miserable as our problems." The other Elders quickly agreed with him. It was pointless trying to convince them. Maybe my mission would not be successful after all. My heart began to throb as I listened to them talk about me in such an ill manner. I leaned away from the wall. I alr
CHAPTER THIRTY ONE ALPHA LESLEY I walked around the kitchen, trying to make sure that everything was in order. I knew how much Martin loved whatever would go into his stomach, and I made sure to supervise the kitchen and the food myself. My brother and the eldest among the alpha brothers would return today, and a banquet is being prepared to honour him and welcome him back to the palace. He had been on a trip for almost a year, and he was finally coming back to the palace. Jeremy inspected the preparation of Martin's room and the arrangement of the rest of the house. I made sure new flowers were bought the previous day and placed them in the right places in the house. A few arrangements had been made the previous night. I kept checking my wrist for the time. Martin would arrive in less than an hour. I didn't want him to arrive when the food was yet to be completely cooked. I wanted everything to be set when he would finally arrive. "Let's hurry, let's hurry," I clapped my hands as I
CHAPTER THIRTY MIRA I stood by the window, lost in my thoughts while starring into the moonlit night. The cool air brushed through the trees, rustling leaves and calming my mind. I felt peace in the wind. I had agreed to meet Sharon, the Oracle, tomorrow. Jeremy had promised to accompany me, but what she agreed on hung over my shoulders like the weight of a storm cloud. A soft knock sounded at my door disrupting my thoughts. Of course it was Jeremy. He stepped in before I could even respond. His presence filled the room with so much energy and I couldn't deny the fact that he was the alpha. Though I tried resisting his power for so long. I knew I just couldn't keep the distance between us forever. “You haven’t given me an answer,” Jeremy reminded me as he stepped closer towards me, crossing his arms the room. His dark and piercing eyes searched for me. He was always calm and so confident. I swallowed hard, feeling the pressure of his gaze. I had given him an answer, but it wasn't th
CHAPTER TWENTY NINE MIRA The room felt smaller now. The air hung heavy with disappointment and a sense of betrayal that I couldn't’t quite shake. I have been preparing to leave, packing my belongings in slow, measured movements, trying to push down the growing rage that had began to grow inside me since the elders decision. They had disrespected me again, doubting my abilities despite everything I had done to show them as proof. I let out a shaky breath, pausing with a shirt clenched tightly in her hands. I could hear their voices in her mind, the murmurs of doubt that had followed her throughout her entire career. "She's too young. Too naive. Not ready to take on real responsibilities" it didn't matter how many times I'd proven myself, how many battles i had fought and won in their name. To the elders, she would always be the girl who needed to be watched, who needed to be doubted. I tossedy shirt into the bag with a frustrated grunt, blinking back the sting of tears. No, I won't c
CHAPTER TWENTY EIGHTCHAPTER TWENTY EIGHT LESLEY Jeremy and I, made our way to the chambers of the head of the Elders. It was a large hall, one that always made us feel as if we were walking into an ancient arena, the weight of past traditions pressing down on my shoulders. But tonight was different. I wasn’t here to adhere to protocol or be tied down by their rules. I was here go get us a need for survival. Jeremy was right. The time for waiting has finally come to an end, and if the Elders couldn’t see the urgency of the situation, then I would make them see it. Wether they like it or not. As we approached the grand entrance, two guards stepped aside, recognizing Jeremy and I. They opened the doors, and our footsteps echoed through the hall as we entered. The chamber was dimly lit, with tall, iron-wrought windows letting in the faint glow of the moon. At the far end of the room sat the Elder, head of the council of werewolves and supernatural beings. The elder was an imposing figure
CHAPTER TWENTY SEVENLESLEYThe aftermath left the battlefield quiet, but for the muffled crackling of burning lumber and the cries of the wounded. Eventually, after hours of nonstop fighting, the rogues had fled and vanished into the darkness. However, the cost of their retreat was high for us. The debris of our house was strewn all around me, and blood marked the fields where my troops had fallen. A menacing reminder of the night's destruction, the omegas homes were in ruins. I dabbed at my perspiration and bloody brow, attempting to contain the growing wave of annoyance and rage that was about to overflow. This was a shattering blow to the strength and morale of the pack, not merely a battle lost. For what purpose? Because of the Elders’ stubbornness? Their endless protocol that had our hands held, when we needed help the most? My gaze fell on the captured rogues, as I scanned the scene before me—snarling and growling defeated figures who had been chained and restrained by my warri
CHAPTER TWENTY SIXLESLEYFrustration gnawed at me with every passing second as I paced restlessly around the Elder's chambers. The sun had long been set, casting a light golden glow over the pack’s headquarters. The urgency of the situation weighed heavily on my shoulders, and the Elders council, seated before me, seemed maddeningly indifferent to the crisis. For what felt like an eternity, I had been trying to negotiate with them, desperate to convince them to let Mira, the fetish woman, begin her work immediately. The stakes were too high for their hesitance. Standing in front of the Elders, I fought to keep my voice calm, but annoyance lingered just beneath the surface. “We should have been informed earlier, in detail, about her role in this before bringing her here,” one of the Elders said, a tall, imposing man with grey hair his stern expression unwavering. “We don’t make such decisions rashly. It’s an act of betrayal, Lesley—you went behind our backs by bringing her here.” I cl
