ログインCeleste povThe morning light filtered through the curtains, casting a warm glow over the room. I woke up to the feel of Victor's arms wrapped around me, his steady breathing against my neck.A smile played on my lips as I remembered the night before…the intensity of our connection and the way he had claimed me, body and soul.I turned in his arms, my gaze roaming over his sleeping face. He looked so peaceful and so vulnerable.It was a stark contrast to the powerful Beta he was during the day and of course, the passionate lover he was last night.I couldn't resist the urge to trace the line of his jaw, my fingers lingering on the soft bristle of his morning stubble.He stirred awake, his eyes fluttering open. A slow, lazy smile spread across his face as he saw me."Good morning," he greeted, his voice husky with sleep."Good morning," I replied, my heart fluttering.He leaned in and kissed me.It was a soft, lingering kiss that held the promise of more to come."How did you sleep?" h
CelesteI am doing this. We are doing this. That's all I can think as Victor's hands trail my body, his lips locked with mine in a passionate kiss. He shoved my bathrobe away, exposing me to his hungry eyes. I threw my head back as Victor's skilled tongue swirled over my perky nipple, licking, tasting. He then bit down just enough for me to feel a sharp pain, followed by a warm pleasure. I cried out and thrust my chest out even more, encouraging him to take as much of me into his mouth as he could. I grabbed his head, ran my fingers through his hair and pulled him into me. I needed him.tI wanted him. He had been teasing me and I was starting to feel frustrated.His hands on my body served to keep me from losing my mind from all the pleasurable torture he had been inflicting on my poor, little body. I could barely breathe. My pussy throbbed and ached. It felt like it was pulsing. I needed him so badly."Victor...please." I croaked out, begging. I didn't even know what I was exactl
Victor POV " No one has ever done that for me before." Celeste's words cut me deep. I could not control the ache that spread through my heart when I heard that.Just what has my mate gone through? How was her childhood? One thing I know and can tell so far, it wasn't smooth. I can't help but wish there's a way I could erase all the past pain. Maybe that's why she turned into the person she was, always competing and trying to put others down." You have me now. Forget about the past and let's live the moment and the future the moon Goddess has planned for us."I take her face into my hands, my fingers tracing the delicate bones of her jaw. I want to kiss her, to erase the memory of Jerald's ugly words with the touch of my lips.But I hold back. This is not the right time. This is not the right place. She's been through a lot tonight, and the last thing I want is to push her." Let's get you home," I say, my voice soft.She nods, her eyes never leaving mine. I can see the trust in th
Celeste pov Jerald stood before us like a bad dream, one that I was desperate to get rid of. He looked nothing like the Jerald I knew two months ago. His face, which was once graceful now just looked ugly and twisted. His eyes were dark and narrowed and held a familiar venom. He was dressed casually… too casually I'd say for someone's who was always very mindful of their looks. "Jerald," I called, my voice cold. My earlier vulnerability that I showed Victor instantly crystallized into a familiar, protective armor. I let go of Victor's hand, taking a half-step forward and placing myself between him and my ex husband. This was my mess, my past. I wouldn't let it touch him or be tainted by it. "The whore finally speaks," Jerald sneered, taking a swig from a bottle I didn't see initially. The smell of cheap liquor wafted over us and I scrunched my nose. "Did you tell your new friend here how you operate? Lure them in with that pretty face and that tight body, then sink your claw
CelesteI had been anxious the whole day and I didn't know why. Scrap that, I did know why. Victor was taking me out to dinner. My mate was asking me out on a date and I was fucking excited yet scared that I might mess it.This was my second chance and I didn't want to ruin it for myself. I deserved it, right?I was putting on a red shade of lipstick and I couldn't help but wonder if it was too much. I mean, I had changed shades three times. Same thing with the dress, even the lingerie ... I knew, it was even stupid since Victor might not even have been interested in anything intimate with me that night.But what if he was?I took a deep breath, my gaze fixed on my reflection. The woman staring back at me was a stranger to my eyes.Her hair was styled in soft waves, her makeup was flawless, and the deep green dress she was wearing clung to her curves in all the right places. She looked... confident and desirable.I took one last look at myself and nodded. That was it. That was the new
Celeste povIt has been three days after Victor left with the Alpha, Alpha Lucian to what he described as a pack related meeting. I have been staying here at the pack, helping out where I can and getting to know the people here. I have to say, the pack members have been good to me. Or maybe I am just the nasty one who would have given someone new a hard time considering what I did to Katy. They have not judged me, not even asked about my relationship with Jessica even when I know they already know about it. I get to sleep, eat and train with the others as a family. A family. The name tastes familiar yet unfamiliar in my tongue. I used to have a family back at my previous pack. A family that thrived at comparing each other and fighting to be recognized. Maybe that is what brewed the enmity I felt towards Katy.I have to admit that stealing jerald from Katy even when I knew he was her fated mate was my way of proving that I was better than her. I am not proud of that though. Look

Katy The crowd went silent, everyone turning to stare at her.Lucian tensed beside me, ready to intervene but I placed my hand on his arm."Let me handle this," I said quietly.He looked at me, surprised, then nodded and stepped back.I just promised to be the Luna they needed so how could I accep

KatyI was still trembling from the aftershocks when Lucian pulled back, his eyes burning with hunger that told me he was nowhere near done with me."Get in the back seat," he commanded, his voice rough and authoritative.My legs were shaking so badly I wasn't sure I could move, but something in hi
