Maddison P.O.V.After I healed Piper’s friend, Liam offered to let them rest in our room. We’ll leave the door open, so they can leave if they like to. It’s late in the afternoon now, and I have spent a good few hours or so on this. I turn to Liam, who is sitting behind me still, and apologize. This is his birthday, and I spent all afternoon completely engrossed in my healing. He tells me to not apologize, and he has been fascinated seeing someone do magic like this. Cinanna agrees with her son, and they both tell me how much of a good job I’ve done. Piper supports her friend, so he can get up, and they ask if they can stay in a corner in the living room instead of walking the stairs right now. Liam says it’s fine, and gets up to get some comfy blankets on the floor for them. I tear up at how considered he is. As he comes back, he reaches a hand down to me and helps me up on my feet. My body is stiff from staying in the same position for many hours, but the satisfaction of completin
Liam P.O.V. “Are you enjoying your birthday party?” Maddie asks, as I twirl her around. She already told me about a hundred times she doesn’t dance, but in my arms, she is as graceful as she could possibly be. She seems so secure here, and I smile down at her. “This has been the best birthday ever, angel. You made it unforgettable.” I answer with a smile. She looks up into my eyes, her own searching for something. “You really mean it.” She replies, ever the surprised tone of voice. “Of course I mean it. You are my mate, and I could not have wished for a better birthday than waking up with you in my arms, and having you around all day. I even got to see you practice some of your magic. The day has been perfect.” She blushes under my praise, and I think to myself I want her to look like this all the time. The slight red blush to her cheeks makes her look ever the more beautiful. The music stops, and my father slaps my shoulder. This is it. The time where I present my amazing mate t
Maddison P.O.V. Standing in front of Liam in my underwear is more frightening than I ever thought. My instinctive reaction was to cover myself, but as he gently removed my arms and told me to not hide from him, I felt something warm wash down my spine. The heat in his gaze, and the way he looks at me like I am a goddess or something makes me feel so good. He takes my hand again, making me sit on the bed. He kneels down, slipping my shoes off. I didn't put on the stockings, because I hoped this would be the ending to our evening, and the dress was floor length. He lifts my right foot up and kisses it. Then he does the same thing with the left foot. “I worship the ground you walk on, angel. And I will kneel before you and kiss your feet every night to prove it to you.” I giggle at his dramatic antics. “I believe you, you don’t have to do that.” I answer with a tender smile. The sparks from the matebond intensifies every time he looks at me with that heated and serious gaze of his. G
Liam P.O.V.I had every intention to let Maddie sleep through the night, but I just couldn’t keep my hands off of her. And she felt the same way, because after a small nap, we both woke up and took round two, three and four. Maddie was exhausted by that time, but I just had to have her again. She laughed and asked me if I wasn’t tired or something, but I just shook my head, kissing her all over her gorgeous body. “I’m an Alpha, I don’t need rest, baby.” I tell her with a small growl. Maddie giggles, and round five and six comes right after each other. By the time the sun rises, Maddie is curled up on her side and sleeping soundly. I still want her, but I also know she is not going to be able to walk as it is, and I am actually not sure if she would kill me just to get some peace from me if I wake her this time. I opted for just laying beside her, drawing small circles on her stomach instead and admiring her beauty. I sound like a creepy stalker type, but I don’t fucking care! She is
Maddison P.O.V. “So, Maddison. Tell us something about yourself.” Milena asks, and I don't really know what to say. I still don’t know who is okay with magic and who isn’t. “Uhm.. There is not much to tell.” I reply with a slight blush. I hate how I always blush. My face is an open book to my feelings, and it has irritated me for as long as I can remember. “Well, Cianna said you healed an animal yesterday, is that true?” She then asks, and I nod. “Yes. Piper came with him, and I had to do something.” She smiles and nods. Odette wrinkles her nose. “Magic scares the shit out of me.” She says, and I feel how my stomach turns to a knot in fear. “I don’t have anything against it, Luna. I just had a really bad experience as a child and since then I have been afraid of it.” She explains and I relax a little. “May I ask what happened?” I ask, ignoring the Luna thing. I am not Luna yet, but these people seem to be adamant to get me used to the title. “Well, we were visiting the Iron Mo
Liam P.O.V. It’s been three weeks since the day with brunch, and mom and the other’s have been harassing Maddie with all sorts of questions about the Luna ceremony. She says it’s fine, but I can feel she is getting stressed about all the decisions, so I went to mom and asked her to stop asking Maddie all the time, and instead make it a learning experience. Maddie is keen to learn everything she can, and she has adapted to the pack life with grace. I am beyond proud of her. We are going on walks in the forest area every day, as she is also very adamant to get to know the pack lands and everyone in it. People and animals. I have met more animals in the last three weeks than I have in all my life. She is truly remarkable, and she instructs me every time what is best to do as to not scare her friends. The two squirrels from outside the cave have made themselves home in the big oak tree just outside the packhouse, greeting us every morning when we go on our morning stroll. They have even
Maddison P.O.V.“Guys, you don’t have to follow me to the kitchen. What should happen to me on that short little walk?” I ask with a laugh, while we are descending the stairs to get to the kitchen. Ezra, Sophie and Clara are all following in my heels, and I find it absolutely ridiculous and funny at the same time. We are in the pack house for Goddess sake! As we go down the last flight of stairs I stop on one of the steps and look at the group of complaining people in the hall. I may have spoken too soon. “There she is! Give us our sons back, you spawn of the devil!” A woman screams jumping towards me. Before anyone can react, I have her in a magical hold, preventing her from advancing further. The others growls fiercely, but compared to Liam it kind of sounds like a kitten trying to sound like a lion. I roll my eyes.“Mom! Dad! What the fuck?” Ezra asks with anger in his voice. He’s looking at one of the couples with contempt. “Ezra, darling. We’ve come to take you home! We are lea
Liam P.O.V.I can’t believe the audacity of those fuckers! How dare they show up at the packhouse like that and accuse my sweet and amazing mate of such heinous things? I am beyond livid and it took everything in me to not kill all of them. I wanted to follow the last couple, the Sanders, and make an example out of them, but my Maddie stopped me. She even got through to that hothead to Ash. However she did that I have no idea, but they way she handle herself and the situation makes me fucking proud to have her as my mate! She is a wonder, and I can learn so much from the way she just held them back with her magic, and never got baited to say or react to their threat and gall. I wanted to talk to her alone, before going back to the others. To tell her how fucking proud I am of her. To express my deep admiration of her control. But I think she got the wrong idea, and I am currently kicking myself for that. She had her eyes closed, and she opted for taking one of the chairs from the bre
