WINTER

"That's my clothes and my jewelry you're wearing! Take them off!" I failed to keep my composure.

Since I caught them together two days ago I’ve been trying to stay rational and wait for the right moment to confront them cause I didn’t want to explode and make a fool of myself. But now I couldn’t hold it in any longer.

"Hell! Get your hands off me! Are you insane?" Crystal snapped, shoving me away. "And what did you just say, Winter? Your clothes? Your jewelry? As if Kallias didn’t give these to me himself. Ask him if you don’t believe it!"

Pain exploded in my chest.

The night Kallias gave me that jewelry, he kissed my hand whispering to the Goddess how deeply he loved me, how grateful he was to have me as his Luna.

And now, I find out he gave the same damn thing to Crystal. I didn’t even want to imagine if he whispered those to her too.

My mate and my friend, all this time, behind my back...

"Why, Crystal? I considered you my sister but you’ve..." My voice trembled "Let yourself be Kallias' whore all this time?

"Whore?" She barked, fists curling at her sides. "You’re the whore. I mean so much more to him. So much more than you ever have and than you ever could."

I remember Kallias told Crystal he wanted a pup from her, he never said that to me. 

A devil in the back of my mind whispered that Crystal might be telling the truth.

"And I want you to remember this," Crystal closed our distance, "What happened between Kallias and me has been going on far longer than you think. You were the one who came between us. But Selene has proven that what’s truly mine will never be taken away. So accept it, Winter. Accept that your mate was never truly yours all this time."

A slow, cruel smile curved across her lips as she watched the color drain from my face.

Then she stepped back. The staircase loomed behind her.

My eyes shot wide open.

“Cryst-” I began,

But it was too late.

Her sharp gasp pierced the air just before her body slipped and then tumbled down the stairs.

-----

The news of Crystal’s fall spread through the castle so quickly. I didn’t know how it reached Kallias so fast. He came rushing home not long after despite being at the border. Then again I remember it was about Crystal, he would find a way to be here quickly.

We are in her room right now, pain arose inside my chest as I watched my mate clutch Crystal’s hand and bring it slowly to his lips.

“Open your eyes, Crystal,” Kallias whispered gently. “Please, I don’t want to lose you. I love you.”

“Kallias,” I finally found my voice, hoarse with unshed tears. “She’ll Wake up soon, but for now, let’s her have some rest. If you don't mind I need a moment of your time to talk-"

He looked up and our eyes met.

The softness in his expression vanished.

In a flash, Kallias was in front of me. I barely had time to process before he slammed me hard against the wall. His hand gripped my shoulders, pinning me in place.

“I-It hurts, Kallias,” 

“You heartless woman,” The man who always looks into my eyes with warmth and love now shows nothing but a disgusted look. “What did Crystal ever do to you that made you shove her down the stairs? You want to kill her didn’t you?”

“I didn’t-"

“Shut the fuck up, Winter!” He roared, cutting me off. “Every eyewitness heard you screaming at her just before it happened and one of my guards saw you stumbling back into my pack drunk out of your mind!”

He pressed me harder into the wall,

“What kind of Luna does that? Drinking outside, causing a scene, acting like a lunatic bitch? I’m ashamed of you. Not just as your Alpha but as your husband.”

For a moment, I could only stare at him. My chest is rising and falling.

Then, everything I’d been holding in since two days ago burst to the surface.

I shoved Kallias back with all the strength I had. 

“You’re ashamed of me because I drank to cope?" I snarled back, "Then tell me, what the hell should I feel when my mate has been screwing around with my maid behind my back? When he tells her he wants a pup from her?"

His eyes widened, mouth parting as if to deny it, before he realized it was too late.

“You know about that…” Kallias breathed, his voice faltering.

“You’re a disgusting piece of shit!” I shout. The words flew out of me before I could stop them but didn’t regret it.

His eyes darkening. A low growl I recognize too well rumbled in his chest as his pupils changed color. His wolf had heard my insult and now it was furious.

Kallias took a step toward me, his claws elongated. Toward me, his mate.

Just then,

“Kallias?”

Crystal’s voice made him froze mid-step.

I saw his claws retracted slowly and the wildness in his eyes began to fade. Her voice soothed him, pulling his human side back from the edge.

Crystal pushed herself up carefully and slid down the bed.

“What happened?” She asked with fragile voice as her gaze flicked between us, wide and innocent.

“Crystal? Goddess, you've regained conciousness?” Kallias rushed to her side like he’d been summoned by a spell.

I stood frozen watching as he pulled her against his chest. Then Kallias moved to lift her, his arms curling around her waist like she was something precious, "You make me afraid, Crystal,"

Crystal reached up and touched his face gently, “I’m alright, Kallias. Im here beside you."

“No, Crystal. Not yet. You need to lie still for now."

The door creaked open and our pack’s healer entered the room. She glanced at Kallias and Crystal then turned to me with a soft, almost pitying smile.

My stomach twisted. I knew something that would break me all over again was coming.

“Lady Crystal, please lie back down,” Gretta said gently, “You need more rest after what happened. It’s not good for the baby if you're on your feet so soon.”

Baby?

“What did you say, Gretta? B-baby?” Kallias asked, his smile hit like a blade straight to my chest.

Beside him, Crystal blinked in surprise.

I stood there, feeling like the ceiling had caved in on me.

Crystal is pregnant?

Gretta nodded solemnly, “Yes, Alpha Kallias. Congratulations.”

    KALLIAS“I’ve examined Luna Crystal, Alpha,” Gretta reported softly. “She ingested something that upset her digestion. It caused her pain but with the medicine I’ve given her, it will pass. Neither she nor the baby is in any danger.”When I returned to the castle last night, I found Crystal's chamber crowded with maids in distress. They say that they had discovered Crystal writhing in agony clutching her belly outside the castle gate.“Thank you, Gretta,” I murmured.The healer bowed before exiting the room, leaving me to exhale heavily. I crossed to the bed where Crystal lay, her tears slipping down her face.“Shhh, don't cry, my love,” I whispered, sitting beside her and brushing her hair back with gentle fingers. “You’re alright now. Our baby is safe."Her hand shot up, seizing my collar with m “Don’t lie to me, Kallias. I know Winter isn’t giving me harmless potions. She’s trying to kill our child, your heir!

    VALTOR“What do you-"“I just baited you. And look, you took it so easy.” Slowly, Lilith brushed my hand aside. “I can’t even remember the last time you were this possessive over a woman.”Her sly gaze lingered on me, lips curling into a smile that made my fists clench.“I don’t have time for this nonsense. If you're done, you can get out of my castle-"“But I haven’t even told you the most important part yet.” She tilted her head, “You really don’t want to hear about the latest dream I had, Valtor? Last time you ignored me, you lost what was dearest to you.”My lips pressed into a hard line. Because she was right. The last time I dismissed her vision about Alaric’s massacre, I paid with everything. I lost my Queen, my Luna, my other half. And with her…our unborn child. My pride had told me that being a King meant I was capable of protecting all that I loved. But my arrogance had cost me more than I could ever bear.I turned my back on her, I don't want to let her see the grief that

    VALTORWinter’s expression changed instantly, and whatever words she had been ready to throw at me died on her lips. She didn’t argue anymore. Even when I gave her the clothes for change and the small vial of medicine, she took them without complaint. I couldn’t risk staying away from Nytheris much longer with Alaric around, so we left the inn that morning.We traveled in our wolf forms and this is the first time I saw Winter’s beast. I had expected something delicate like her human but turns out I was wrong, her wolf was bigger than the other female pack wolves I've seen. She has unique silver-gray and pale icy blue eyes mirroring the winter sky she was named for.She ran behind my wolf, Magnus, with ease.'Strong,' I thought. A swell of pride rises unexpectedly in my chest.I remembered Winter had the blood of an Alpha from her father’s, though the past year had robbed her of the chance to sharpen her strength. But I was sure with the right guidance, Winter could become more than s

    WINTERValtor collapsed against me. Not entirely, his arm braced against the bed so that the weight of his body wouldn’t press me down completely. For a moment, he stayed buried inside me before finally pulling out. The sudden emptiness made me ache with disappointment. My hand drifted to my pussy and I felt the warm spill of his sperm seeping onto the sheets.“Did I hurt you?” he asked at last, lifting himself upright. His eyes darkened with concern.“No. You didn’t hurt me at all. That was… so good. I liked it."His gaze lingered on me, “Don’t look at me like that or we’ll end up in round two and I won’t stop until you pass out."I blinked at him "Like what?”But he was already turning away, retreating before I could press further.With a soft sigh, I shifted and sat back, adjusting against the headboard. My body was still trembling from the climax. Just when I thought he had left me to rest, Valtor returned.“Spread your legs,” He said flatly.“N-now? Can’t you give me a moment to

    🔞Mature content🔞WINTERMy body arched the moment Valtor pushed something inside my pussy. The stretch was so overwhelming that it made me think he had already buried his cock inside. But then I realize it was only his fingers. He pumped it in and out with a slow rhythm while his thumb was circling my aching clit until sparks of pleasure shot through me.“Oh, Gosh…” I moaned as his lips tore away from mine.While his finger pumped my soaked core, his mouth wandered lower until his tongue flicked lightly over my nipple. The slow taunting licks made me tremble, then he drew the peak into his mouth. My body writhed between the double assault, overstimulated at my two most sensitive places until I felt my orgasm coming. "I-it's so good..!"“Cum for me,” he growled against my ear.His tongue slid lower, swirling against my clit in perfect rhythm with the thrust of his fingers. The wet strokes and the lick were too much, too good I couldn’t handle it anymore.I cried out, clutching the

    VALTORShit. I regretted not bringing her here sooner before the damned rain started. Now Winter’s maid’s dress was soaked through, clinging to every curve it should have concealed.Her lips trembled as she looked at me. Whether from the cold or from fear, I couldn’t tell. But the sight of her flushed face, the wet fabric molding to her body, sent blood surging hot and fast to my cock.“The bathroom is there,” I jerked my chin toward the door. “You can take off those wet clothes inside.”“But I didn’t bring a change of clothes. Am I supposed to walk around naked?”My cock twitched.I clenched my jaw, holding back the urge to strip her myself, bend her over, and bury myself deep inside her right then.“I already asked for a change of clothes, the boy is fetching them now. I’ll give them to you when they arrive. Go, better get dry before you catch a cold.”“Alright.” She frowned “But what about you? You’ll catch a cold too if-"“I can change after you.” My gaze burned over her. “Or you
