There were things I had been questioning myself lately. It was how my body was able to allow this man to touch me sensually. Not only that, I had let him own and brand me, and even my wolf was trusting him more than she trusted our former mate.

I still remember that time when Redmund had attempted to touch me, and I had gotten away with it by pushing him off me. I remembered I was way more disgusted than the time I broke my celibacy promise when I slept with Lucretius.

For Redmund, it felt unnatural. But with Lucretius, he could be rough on me, yet my body still liked it. He could even make me feel butterflies in my stomach that I barely felt for my mate.

The way I leaned back, my hand reaching for his wet hair, gently clutching it while his hands began to wander around my twin globes... It was enough that his effect on me was so much that my body would instantly surrender.

"Lucretius..." I called his name, half-plea, half-surrender as the sensation crawled to my whole body.

    "It seems like Lucretius is going to be late for supper, Euphyllia."I turned at Romina's voice behind me. I was already at the front porch, waiting for Lucretius' arrival, but it was already 6 pm, and until now, he hadn't arrived home yet since he left this morning.I thought the preparation would take him at least to finish it before the afternoon, but what was taking him so long to arrive? Did he encounter some inconveniences with the wedding organizer? Did he have an accident that no one was telling me about? Or perhaps I was just being an impatient person, couldn't wait for someone? Sighing, my eyes darted to the sun beautifully setting down over the horizon. "It seems like it." I secretly clutched my skirt, feeling something hollow in my chest.Realization was starting to hit me since earlier that Lucretius's absence brought an oddity to me that I wasn't used to. Although Romina was here, and also my other two nemesis could entertain, it still felt the manor was quieter.I had

  • My Mate Chose My Best Friend, So His Uncle Claimed Me   Chapter 45: The Famous Seamstress

    The next day, Lucretius left early in the morning to meet the wedding organizer, and the packhouse was alive with preparations for tomorrow's second wedding. It would be held in the ceremonial ground where I officiated as Luna.While they were occupied, I was handling the paperwork from the military, which was delivered by a messenger before Lucretius left. He asked me to take care of it, instead of joining him to meet the wedding organizer.As much as I wanted to help him finalize the preparation for our second wedding, I could tell from his tone that he preferred that I handled things on his behalf with the help of Joaquin, his Beta. Even told me that he wanted to surprise what could be the outcome tomorrow, which I did not honestly look forward to because we had already gotten married, but he said that I would love the arrangement he had made.By midmorning, a knock came at the study room."Luna," Isolde announced, bowing as the door creaked open while I was arranging some document

    "I should have known..." I murmured again, and another chuckle broke in me as I brushed off the grass from my dress. I still had Lucretius's coat in my arms, and his scent still lingered on it, calming my nerves."Did something amuse you while I was gone?" he asked, his expression looking curious. His gaze trailed briefly to where Lilith had disappeared, then returned to me."Nothing worth mentioning," I hummed as I loved the feeling of the grass, slightly swinging my foot.He also hummed quietly in response, setting the small basket down on the grass. "Eat," he said simply as he knelt and began arranging the food. The scent of warm bread and honey, and some stew in a bowl drifted through the air. "You don't have any seafood allergy, right? This is shrimp stew.""Not really." I sank down beside him, my fingers touching against his coat that I had folded neatly on my lap.Lucretius broke a piece of bread and handed it to me. "Here," he said without looking up. "You seem restless.""I'm

    The cheers of the pack still echoed faintly in the distance, even the wolves howling, as Lucretius's hand remained firm at my back as he guided me away from the crowd.We were walking in a path with faintly glowing lanterns as the sun had already set. I could even see the countless fireflies steering us to a nearby lake."Shouldn't we stay?" I asked softly when we were already a little far from the ceremonial ground. "They're celebrating." I pointed out.Although I didn't want to bring it up and I was already tired from socializing, I wanted to point it out to him that they might be looking for us.And I didn't want to feel bad that their Alpha and Luna weren't here to celebrate with them."They will celebrate until dawn," he said when he watched me sitting down on the grass, his head slightly tilting with interest. "You've done enough for today. You need rest."The moment I removed my heels, I moaned and stretched my arms before sitting on the grass, agreeing with his statement. I di

  • My Mate Chose My Best Friend, So His Uncle Claimed Me   Chapter 42: The Luna of Golden Eclipse

    By the time the sun began its slow descent, the ceremonial ground of the pack was already arranged like a stage. The banners were set up and swayed gently; the insignia of the Golden Eclipse Pack was engraved on them. I could even hear the faint murmur of the people gathering, which elevated my nervousness. I told myself that I was prepared to face the whole pack of members of the Golden Eclipse Pack, yet here I was feeling like I was about to back away.But what set me on the stone was seeing Lucretius standing at the center of the sacred circle, his presence always commanding yet calm. Just the sight of him was enough for me to calm down, and I should entrust everything to him.He looked so dashing just by wearing a dark ceremonial robe that was embroidered with silver threads, shimmering in the afternoon sunlight. Not only that, it didn't escape me that he was wearing the brooch I gifted to him on his birthday. The joy I felt overwhelming from how nervous I was.When his eyes lif

  • My Mate Chose My Best Friend, So His Uncle Claimed Me   Chapter 41: An Outsider

    As soon as we finished breakfast today, Lucretius offered to take me on a stroll around the Golden Eclipse Pack so I could get familiar with it as the Luna of the pack.He showed me the facilities first, such as the training grounds, where his pack warriors trained in the wide expanse of fields. I watched as their movement was calculated and disciplined.It was way more impressive than what I could remember back in my pack."This is why the Golden Eclipse Pack stands unmatched in the north," he said. His hands were shoved to the back of his trousers as we walked. "Our warriors are trained not just in strength but in strategy. They don't act without purpose."I nodded silently, watching the pack warriors bow as he passed. His presence alone commanded obedience.Which made me wonder... which of them were considered his elite ones? The one I remember, he told me that he knew I would be marrying their Alpha.He led me next to the trading hall. It was a large marble structure where merchan
