She was so excited; she made some cookies, put them in a basket and brought them to her colleagues at work almost every day. They loved her more for it.Her intention of avoiding Drax was easy for her so far, because he had gone on a business trip with his dad for a few days now. It was serene for her. No hiding behind the counters. No scanning along the hallway before coming out of her office...On Thursday morning, she came to work as usual and distributed some cookies she made around the office.When she finished distributing the cookies to those who cared, there were still a few left in the basket, so she took them and headed to her office.She was about to open the door when she heard a familiar deep masculine voice behind her.“You didn’t save any for me?”She turned around and saw Drax standing behind her with a big grin plastered on his face.Torn between two emotions, she managed to force a smile on her face.She couldn’t decide if she was happy to see him, or if she was sad
She was getting herself into something she would regret. Getting intimate with her boss like this. And to make matters worse, it was without his consent.But he was actively engaged in the process... Her mind tried its best to justify her actions in order to escape the guilt. She sighed.Unfortunately, no matter how much she tried to tell herself that he also wanted it, the truth was that he was high and intoxicated.For all she knew, he didn’t even know where he was and he might not even remember a thing from this night by tomorrow morning.Wrapping her hands around his neck, she closed her eyes and buried her face in the curve of his shoulder and hugged him. She felt so good. She wanted it to last forever.“Thank you for everything.” She whispered under her breath.As much as she would have loved to continue being with him, she had to face the fact...He was way out of her league. And even if by some miracle, he somehow decides that he wanted to be with her, how can she be sure it’l
“Yes, Drax, I have feelings for you. I know it’s stupid and all, but you’ve just been so nice to me since we met. That's possibly why I got carried away. I don’t know what happened. It’s all my fault. I shouldn’t have taken the job. I’m sorry.”Drax’s brows furrowed. “Woah woah woah...” he interrupted. “Why are you apologizing? It’s only natural to have feelings for people you like. That’s why it’s called ‘falling in love’ You never have control over it. It just happens spontaneously.”“... and it’s a good thing, because I also have a confession too. I have had deep feelings for you from the first day I met you, Rissa.”He leaned forward and held her arms. “That day at the restaurant, I felt like I saw an angel. Your beauty, your humility. You got slapped, and you didn’t even retaliate. That’s all I’ve ever wanted in a woman. I feel at peace whenever I'm with you.“That day we had dinner at the restaurant. My plan was to ask you to be my girlfriend, but when you said you were still hu
Drax laughed, trying to steady himself on his feet. He wraps his hands around her curvy ass to hold her weight. The cool breeze brushes against their faces, making their hair flow in the wind’s direction. Rissa kisses him twice, on his forehead and on his lips. “I love you.” She says, with a smile. Drax blushed. “I love you more.” then he returns the kiss. She rests her head in the crook of his neck like a baby, and Drax carries her inside the building. As they reach the living room, he drops her on her feet, and they stare into each other’s eyes for a long minute. Drax raises his hand and caresses her cheek. Rissa leans forward and gives him a short, wet kiss. They pause for a moment, gazing into each other’s soul, then they draw closer and suck each other’s lips off. Drax nibbles on her upper lip, while Rissa plays with his lower lip. They kiss for a long time, then she feels his boner on her thigh. She purrs into his mouth. Eyes hooded, heavy breaths, he runs his hands over he
DRAX'S POVI didn't know if she was my rightful mate, but I had to do as I was told. At this point, I just had to nod and agree with whatever my uncle told me to do, because he's the current leader of the pack. Besides, what do I know? I'm only a naive 21-year-old who knows nothing about pack traditions — well, that's what my uncle thinks. "This is the only way for you to get a mate and become eligible to lead the pack." Those were the words my uncle told me in order to convince me to have sex with the girl he brought in to be my mate.Her name was Sonia. I didn't know who she was before now, or what pack she belonged to originally, but I sensed she was a rogue. My uncle, Damian had brought her to the pack two weeks ago to be my mate.I didn't know everything, but I've studied the pack's tradition well enough to know that the correct procedure for finding the right mate was: When a werewolf shifted into his wolf form on his twentieth birthday, his wolf senses becomes extremely heighte
DRAX'S POVMoments later, I woke up and the reality of what had just happened hit me right in the face, My heart sank to my stomach. My mind raced to a billion places and back in a split second. The whips of guilt lashed me unapologetically as I realized what I'd just done.I'd just murdered my soon-to-be mate!What the hell have I done?! I exclaimed in my mind, as my heart pounded heavily against my ribcage.I was scared! I pinched myself instantly, so I could try and wake up from what I thought was only a nightmare.But no! This was real. Suddenly, I heard a familiar male voice that sounded like someone was delivering a speech."We would no longer allow this brutality and unprecedented anarchy to continue in our pack and in our village." The familiar voice shouted, followed by a loud clamour from what seemed like a large crowded audience.I must have been blacked out for a long while. I opened my eyes, but it was too bright, so I squinted to allow my eyes slowly adjust to the brigh
RISSA'S POVThe morning sunlight peeked it's brightness on the far edge of the forest horizon. It was still a little dark, but it's the best time to hunt for food and check traps.My tummy rumbled for lack of proper food in the last two days. I haven't caught anything reasonable these past few days. The only things my traps caught lately were rats and lizards that strayed carelessly into my traps. Although they're not the best of diets, I eat them still. At least so I wouldn't starve to death.Living out hear in the wild isn't really a joy ride, but I had to survive no matter what.I stretched my body along the full length of the bed, twisting and turning to loosen my stuff joints. I lay on the bed for a few more minutes, musing and reviewing my plans for the day.Since my dad died in the city years ago, my mum and I have had to live in the forest together ever since. Until three years ago when I fell severely ill and my mum had to cross the borders to go into werewolf territory to try
RISSA'S POVBright golden rays of sunlight that seeped through the cracks in my wooden shack, rested on my face.The sun was up. It was morning already. I opened my eyes, and the morning sunlight blinded me momentarily making me to shield my face with my palms.I must have slept in today. I usually wake up much earlier than this. Even before the sun comes up. Maybe it's because I slept late while thinking about my encounter with the strange man that was caught in my trap yesterday.He was indeed very strange. Why did he run away when I offered him to spend the night here? Talk about weird. Well I guess he's off my case now. Maybe he found his way home or something. I pondered as I stood up to prepare for the activities for the day.I missed my stake out yesterday because of him. He totally disrupted all the plans I had for the day yesterday. The more I thought of it, the more it made my blood boil. Especially since he didn't even care to show some appreciation before storming off.Wel
