Desiree's POV

I sit rigidly beside Alpha Gillian on the raised dais, my spine straight, my hands folded neatly on my lap and trust me, Eliana already adjusted my posture like three times now.

The fabric of my dress alone can carry all the weight in the world. Layers of luxury meant to perhaps impress a pack that would rather see me dead.

I know all of this is a charade. Everyone in this party wants me dead and they're waiting for one perfect opportunity to strike against me.

  • Mated to the Enemy: Imprisoned by Mate Bond   Ninety six

    Gillian's POV “The healer said the blood is null.”Seraphina breaks the news the moment I step into the room, her voice airy and casual, as if she hasn't just sent a messenger to the villa acting like the world was ending. I feel the heat of Desiree right behind me with a sharp and grounding presence in the air. I scan the room. There is no blood, no emergency. There is only Seraphina lounging against the pillows of the guest bed, looking perfectly fine. My gaze catches the flash of pure disappointment on her face when her eyes land on Desiree trailing behind me. It is clear. She wants me alone in the room. I just hope this is not just a string she pulled to have me in here because at the end of the day, my father's health is important more than some silly pulling of strings. “What? Null?” Desiree's voice slips through the room. She steps around me, her arms crossed tightly over her chest, anger lacing her features with pure irritation. “You didn't confirm before screaming abo

  • Mated to the Enemy: Imprisoned by Mate Bond   95

    Desiree’s POV Gillian’s jaw is set so tight that I can hear his teeth grinding. He doesn't even argue much with me, he knows that tone already and he knows that when I square my shoulders like this, I'm not just the Luna anymore. Okay, I'm making it seem dramatic. As we descend the stairs, the air in the villa is strangely so thun. When we finally reach the landing, I see her.Seraphina is sitting exactly where Kael said she would be, on the bench near the brand entrance. She looks different than the last time I saw her. The sharp, arrogant side she used to carry like a weapon has been blunted by fatigue. Her hair, usually perfectly coiffed, is loose and slightly frizzy from travel.But it’s her silhouette that stops the air in my lungs.She’s wearing a soft, stretchy maternity dress, and the bump is unmistakable. It looks heavy , rounded, and prominent. She isn't just pregnant; she’s far along and everyone can see that.She looks up as our footsteps echo on the floor. Her eyes i

    Desiree’s POV “And you’re mine,” he growls, before his mouth finds mine, ending the argument the only way he knows how.Gillian’s body leans against mine, filling his scent in my nostrils and my body. He doesn't move to take me to the bedroom, he just holds me there, pinned against the cool wood of the wall with his forehead resting against mine. His breath is sending heat on my skin, like he's just run a mile to catch me before I slipped through his fingers. “You are still mad,” he murmurs, his voice vibrating deep in his chest.“I'm furious,” I breathe out, though my hands are busy tangling themselves in the hair at the nape of his neck. “You acted like a caveman in front of my friend. You probably embarrassed Kael for the next ten years.”Gillian lets out a low, rough chuckle. He slides his hands down from the wall, his palms skimming over the fabric of my blazer before settling firmly on my hips. He pulls me closer, making sure there isn't a single inch of air between us.“Kael

  • Mated to the Enemy: Imprisoned by Mate Bond   Ninety three

    Desiree’s POV “I hope you don't mind if I join you?” He asks, his grin widening as he looks directly at Ronan. “I'd hate for the conversation to get boring.”My eyes widens and my lips part, but I am too stunned to even give a response. Who the hell comes all the way from the villa on his Luna's first day at work after Instructing his beta to follow me. Who the hell appears even after seeing I am with someone?I blink my eyes, giving him signs to give us space but his next words renders me more speechless. “Do you have something in your eye? I can help you-” he says, standing up to touch my eyes but I quickly avoid his hand touching me with an awkward smile. “Oh... darling,” I say, my voice sounding a little tighter than I than intended. My eyes fix on Ronan, who like he's having the absolute time of his life watching the Alpha of the North play the role of the uninvited third wheel. Ronan doesn't even look intimidated. If anything, he looks delighted, leaning back as he mirrors

    Desiree’s POV “No way,” the person says, their face lighting up with a radiant, happy beam as they begin to run toward me. “I can’t believe it’s actually you!”I stand frozen on the manicured path, my hand still gripping the strap of my briefcase, as the figure sprints toward me with a grin that could outshine the afternoon sun. Ronan!Before I can even process the shock, he's in front of me, skidding to a halt. He looks exactly the same - the same effortless, messy hair, the same twinkle in his eyes that suggests he's always five seconds away from a joke or a heist. "Desiree!" he laughs, his voice like a refreshing splash of cold water. "I heard a rumor that a certain fierce Luna was taking over this place, but seeing you here... in that suit? You look like you’re ready to buy the whole territory just to spite someone."I find my voice, a genuine smile breaking through my professional face. "Ronan. Lyra mentioned I might be seeing you, but I didn't think it would be so soon."He

    Desiree’s POV “Get your ass back here, Des.”I hear Gillian’s voice from behind, halting me to a stop at the entrance of the villa. I turn back to face him, and I see Gillian striding toward me with a mischievous grin that tells me he isn't quite ready to let me step into my professional world just yet. “Where do you think you are going?” He asks, his pace slow and intentional as he winks at me. I raise my brows at him, adjusting the strap of my bag as I folded my arms together. “I believe I mentioned a gallery inspection? Contracts? Being a boss? Any of that ringing a bell, Alpha?”Gillian reaches me in a few strides, his large body covering me, effectively blocking the sunlight. He looks me up and down, his eyes lingering on the sharp lines of my blazer before meeting my gaze with a spark of pure deviltry that speaks volumes of what naughty thing he is thinking about. “I heard all of that,” he murmurs, stepping into my personal space until the scent of his cologne wraps around m

    Desiree POV“Luna Desiree,” I hear my name from behind, causing me to halt to a stop, as I clean the tears that are now streaming down my face. I am just leaving Gillian's hall, my nerves up with the audacity he has to be able to tell me I am an acquired thing of his. Coming from a man who killed

    Desiree's POV“This is an order from the Alpha and you do not have the right to choose between a yes or a no!” Eliana bark, like a dog who has gone berserk. I flinch back, disbelief clawing in my face at the tone she choose to use on me. “You will not yell at me like that,” I warn, my hand pointi

    Desiree's POV “You wouldn't dare!” That is all it took to allow Seraphina tag along to the coronation party. Lucius went against the idea of cutting ties with Dickson, reminding him of how he helped their father in one way or the other. The irony of life is almost laughable because you cannot t
