LOGINI grit my teeth.Damn you, Allister Blackwaters.Dorian is right, and I hate that he’s right.Frustration claws through me violently, making me slam my fist against the marble table.“What do I do then?” I bark. “Sit around while he dismantles my plans piece by piece?”Dorian slowly reaches into his pocket and pulls out his phone. “There might be something you can do.”I stare at him impatiently. “What?”He taps his phone screen a few times before walking toward me and handing it over.I look down, and a woman stares back at me from the screen. My lips part slightly in a smile“Well…” I murmur.“No official engagement announcement yet,” Dorian says, “but she’s been seen wearing his ring already.”I chuckle under my breath. Why didn’t I think of her immediately?“She’s the key,” I say, nodding, as I keep staring at her picture.Slowly, I head back to my seat and settle down, a smile now on my face.“It’s a shame they never got to finish that engagement party,” I murmur. “I could marry
~Jefferson Hoard~One leg stretched over the glass table, with the city lights glowing beyond the floor-to-ceiling windows of my latest terrace apartment, I sip my glass of whiskey, enjoying the warmth and calm.The place is silent except for the faint jazz playing from the speakers inside.Then my phone vibrates.I glance at the screen, and it's my assistant, Mara.“Talk, Mara,” I tell her immediately I pick up the call.“Sir… there’s been an update regarding the Caesar Group contract.” She says slowly, and I instantly know it's not good news.“What about it?” I ask, fear already creeping into my voice.I can't afford to lose Caesar. A partnership with them is all I need to scale not just my business, but my life, future, and plans.Everything I want in life revolves around massive financial independence, and that is exactly what Caesar is going to give me.I have no plan to follow through to the end. All I need is to be awarded the contract, start the process, and get it to a reason
Allister is panting in no time, and his thrusts quicken to a steady, controlled pace. The bench creaks with his movements, but most of the time it can’t be heard over me.My lower body is in ecstasy with the different sensations, and I give myself over to them as willingly as I give myself over to him now.“Oh my Gosh,” I moan.Bliss rolls from my fingertips, down to the ends of my toes as he thrusts himself inside, repeatedly hitting the spot I crave.My body moves by its own choice and wiggles on the bench, restless and anxious for release. But when he slows, and his fingers close around the base of the plug, my heart grinds to a painful stop.I grimace as Allister retracts the toy and thuds it to the rug. He isn’t moving inside me, but he is pulsing. I pinch my eyes tightly shut as he withdraws.Footsteps carry him away, and there is more rustling. I don’t want to know what he was doing.Anxiety grips me so tightly that it squeezes out a panicked noise from me.“Tell me what you th
My expression darkens as I fight hard to maintain my composure.I dismissed her words with a wave of my hand. “Dominic’s wolf is a bit weakened after an illness. Nothing serious. Also, stop listening to Pack rumors.” I add.“Of course, of course,” Alexa nods with fake concern. “I hope he gets completely better from this illness. You know how these things can be. A compromised immunity in werewolves can lead to all sorts of complications.”“Hmm,” I hum and immediately divert the attention to her by changing the topic. “Speaking of relationships, how are things with you? Still with Derek?”Alexa’s smile falters. Yeah, I got you, bitch!“Derek and I broke up.” She replies, looking around the room like she’s no longer interested in our discussion, but who cares?I seize the opportunity, my lips curling into a vindictive smile. “You finally broke up with your parasitic boyfriend? Oh, that is so bad. I heard he was cheating on you with at least three other she-wolves from his social media,
I choke on air, swallowing huge gasps as it begins to intrude.“Hold still, Bloom,” he whispers. “That's right.” Soon, the pressure begins to ease, and the intrusion stops. “Yes, good girl.”He smoothes both of his hands over my back, caressing me. The plug is now lodged inside me, the heart-shaped base against my skin.I feel uncomfortably full and… heavy as I lie still on the bed, my chest heaving as Allister continues to trail over me.His touch helps me calm down and pull my mind back together. Slowly, the burning sensation begins to fade and shift.I can feel its presence with every breath, but it doesn’t hurt.“Skybloom,” Allister calls me, and I hum in answer.“It's time for bed,” he says.“What? Am I… I'm going to sleep with this in my…”“Look at me, Bloom.”I turn and face him. His expression is drenched in desire, and his eyes are burning with power.I sit up, still completely naked.His gaze settles on my breast before it travels slowly back to my face.“You have no idea ho
A blush creeps up my cheeks, “Alli,” I whisper."Just cleaning up the extra milk I found on your lips,” he replies.Tilting my lips closer to him, I ask him, “If the milk is sweet, then you should check my lips properly. There might be more there.”Allister’s laugh is pleasant, almost intoxicating. “You know I’m not talking about the milk.”His word charges up my body.After I finish the milk, he suddenly scoops me up into his arms. Caught off guard, I let out a small squeal.“Ah, what are you doing?” My voice rises at the end, sounding embarrassing, even to my own ears.Allister smiles, a gleam in his face. “Having you accompany me to take a bath.”“I already took a bath just now,” I protest weakly. “Go yourself.”“It’s dark. I’m afraid to take a bath alone.” “You?” I laugh. “You’re afraid?”“Mhm.” “Liar.”He chuckles and drops me back down.I flip my head to look at him, and he instantly takes my lips without giving me a chance.He sucks and nibbles on my lips, drinking me in and
~Rhea~A cane strikes the floor from across the room, my grandmother’s way of announcing her presence. Relief washes over me. I quickly push my seat aside and rush up to her. Hugging her, I point towards the table, and I slip my hand into hers, directing her to the only empty seat at our table.
I turn back to Nox, who is eyeing me like he’s struggling to understand my dilemma, and he shrugs.A suffocating feeling starts to crowd me.I have been thinking of calling Jess and convincing her to see me so that we can discuss the issue of my health and that of my mother.But getting blocked ever
~Jess~I surfed through the rest of my day as fast as I could manage, and when I finally made it to the event, the Westwood Royal Hall was already packed full of guests, surprisingly.I thought the event would be a simple little gathering to show the Pack’s welcome of the Lycan king.Instead, Domin
My eyelids feel like they’re stitched shut, and my body feels so heavy that I’m unable to move it when I try to. The scent of an unfamiliar cologne wafts through my nose. A stranger’s oozing breath ghosts over my cheek, and panic instantly sets in as I immediately force my eyes open. A man I’ve n
