Alexander Ironheart pov. The way she came running to me and jumped into my arms told me that she was missing me as much as I was missing her. And that made me happy. Very happy, indeed. Her legs wrapped around my waist, as if it was the most natural thing to do in the world. I could sense her pouty lips touching the crook of my neck, and her arms were tied around me in a fierce hug. She was indeed my sunshine. Her closeness was doing strange things to my body. It wanted her. I wanted her. I wanted to make her mine. But not like that. My beast didn’t want to listen for any reason. It wanted to devour her, kiss her, and claim her. My hands were under her bubbly ass and that was making me all the more harder. Taking my nose close to her hair I took a long sniff and kissed her head, “Did you miss me?” “Umm hmm. Very much.” Her sexy voice was all muffled due to her mouth close to my shirt. Guessing that she was not planning to pull back anytime soon I tightened my grip around her a
Alexander’s povThe tree house was built by my father, but it was not made for me. It was constructed for someone else. And at that time nobody had ever imagined that I’ll be the one using it later.The irony!“Stay close by.” I sent the mind link to my men, “I’ll let you know if you’ll be needed.” “Yes, your majesty,” my elite warrior responded immediately. His actions used to be as swift as a spark igniting in the night and his eyes were as piercing as that of a hawk surveying its prey.It was impossible to avoid his thorough scrutiny.I climbed the wooden stairs of the tree house and got to the furnished bedroom where I placed her gently on the bed.I wanted to straighten to get off my shirt when Rayna held it in her fists, “Alex.”“Hmm?” I asked kissing her forehead. She was looking so beautiful and worn out after doing lots of chatting.“Don’t go!” she whispered, her eyes still closed.“I am not going anywhere, sunshine.” I managed to take off my shirt and covered her with a qui
Alexander pov“Alex! Stop!” At that point, I did and closed my eyes.“You really want to stop me?” I said feeling the wind slapping my face and when I didn’t get the answer, I opened my eyes.She was not looking at me, her face was turned sideways.Raising my hand, I touched her cheek gently but she being a stubborn brat didn’t look at me, “Who kisses a loved one when he is angry.”I heard her whisper, and this time forced her face to turn to me, “You think I kissed you in anger?” It did flare me up when she nodded her head.Holding her, by her shoulders I gave her a light shake, “You nearly gave me a heart attack when I didn’t find you there. Next time never leave me alone in bed.”I wanted to speak softly but right now I was not in my senses. Anything could have happened to her.“Never leave me alone, Rayna. Not so silently…”She chuckled with mocking amusement, “You mean to say if I plan to leave you, I should do it after announcing to the world? … Hey everyone! I am leaving Alex!”
Alexander’s pov:“Alex! No!” I stopped short when I heard her,“Rayna?”“Anything except this finger, Alex. I have already felt it inside me.” I smirked and continued touching her.“Patience, Sunshine. Patience.” I continued the teasing, her moans had turned louder and were music to my ears.Thank Goddess my men were at a safe distance. “Push back,” I instructed her, and she lifted her upper body and pressed her elbows to the bed. I threw one of her legs above my shoulders to get easier access to her wetness.“Beautiful!” I licked my lips and placed my hands on her inner thighs. I lowered my mouth and licked her softly at first.Then pressed a kiss there just to find her quivering slightly. I kept doing it again and again until my mouth went hard on her wet core.“Alex!” Rayna whined impatiently above me, and I chuckled against her.“Patience, sunshine. Remember? You didn’t want finger!” With one hand I pushed her other leg to the side and slipped my tongue inside, “Oh! Fu*ck!” Rayn
Alexander Ironheart: “What are you doing?” When I heard her voice, I smiled before turning around and found her clad in a bathing robe. “Who leaves his sleeping partner alone in the bed after making Ah-mazing love.” She fluttered her eyes and I laughed. She had stepped right out of the shower because another towel was wrapped around her hair. She came up when I was expertly flipping the grilled cheese sandwiches in the pan, “You made these?” “Yeah,” I said busily with a small smile, “you wanted a private place, so I didn’t call anyone to serve us.” I was pleasantly surprised when she came closer and raised her face offering her lips. With one hand I was holding the pan while the other one wrapped around her waist to kiss her lips. It felt good like we were an old couple enjoying our privacy. The mouthwatering smell of sandwiches made me realize that she must be hungry. “I know you must be starving but you were so adamant on…” I trailed off when saw the red hue on her cheeks.
Rayna Bennett's pov: Oh, Goddess! I was falling for this elite warrior. Last night, Alex didn’t want to make love to me. He thought I was tender, and he wanted to give me some time to heal. My healing was already slow due to the absence of my wolf. But yesterday the way he let me have my way with him near the lake, it was truly magical. His closeness used to make my heart race. Nobody could have guessed that such a huge man could be so gentle. My fated ones didn’t care if I was in pain, or my heart was aching. But here my chosen mate was taking care of me like a baby. After rejection, I had decided to become strong and never to depend on any man. However, this man was making all the walls crumble around me. This morning, he was again making breakfast and I was seated comfortably on a chair drinking in his se*xy body and the way his hand was expertly stirring a spatula in the pan. He was doing everything so perfectly and so effortlessly. “You have been staring at me instead
Rayna’s pov:I was kneeling with my eyes still focused on the ground. I could feel his gaze scorching my skin, but I didn’t dare to raise my eyes to make eye contact.Not now. Maybe later. But not now.“Oh, dear,” Lola's tearful voice reached my ears, “You didn’t know about his identity. Did you?”There was a tinge of mockery in her tone. I might have my differences with Alex… I mean Alexander Ironheart but in no way, I could let him become a laughingstock.“Who said I wasn’t aware of him being my king,” I smiled wiping my cheeks, “I knew about his identity the first time we were alone in our packhouse.” I shrugged casually, and Lola’s face seemed to darken by the revelation.“Y…You knew?” She wanted to say more when we heard Beta Brian’s voice, “You all may rise.” “You can’t fool me, Rayna.” Lola looked at me and for the first time ever in my life, I saw concern flashing on her face.And the worry was for me! Her stepdaughter. The girl she hated most.“If you knew then why do you l
Nora’s pov: The woman whose name was Lola was talking less and was crying more. The sound of her crying was so much familiar as the screeching of nails on a chalkboard. My headache was getting worse. However, her kids were so innocent. My heart was going out to them. “Lola. Whatever the issue is. We won’t abandon you.” Mom said rubbing her shoulder, calming her down. Queen Savannah Ironheart. My mom! Mom had always been so polite and soft-hearted. Nobody could imagine that she was a brutal warrior on the battlefield. “I have heard she is Rayna’s stepmom,” Ruby mumbled close to my ear and then we got a death stare from Mom while saying soothing words to Lola. I nudged my elbow in Ruby’s ribs and got up. “Where do you think you are going, young lady?” Stella spoke, mimicking our mom and I heard Ruby giggling behind. “You should be ashamed of yourself for making fun of Mom,” I kept walking with a smile on my face. “Seriously. Weren’t we supposed to party in the club and now
