Thank you for reading. And for the gems too.
Lea Manuel’s words left me feeling giddy. Even as I sat next to him in the car, I couldn’t stop replaying them in my mind. ‘You’re beautiful Lea. You don’t need to change yourself to make me notice you.’ Simple words. Yet they meant the world to me. My lips kept curling upwards into a smile, I felt so happy. “What’s on your mind?” Manuel’s husky voice broke my train of thought. I turned my head to glance at him and met his blue eyes. It was dark in the car but werewolves had good night vision. More so me whose senses were higher than others. I could see several emotions in those eyes of his. Maybe he thought I couldn’t see well in the dark so he didn't mask them. He was looking at me lovingly. Like I was the most precious thing in the world and it made my heart flutter. “I’m just thinking about us.” I blurted out without thinking. Goddess, I don’t know why I said that. A pained look crossed his face and I was left confused. Why did my words make him sad? “What about us?” He
Manuel She’s so naive. But she’s so cute like that. I wanted to tell her that humans used normal bullets and they did nothing to me. All I had to do was remove the bullet and I would heal in less than ten seconds. But seeing her anxiety and the clear worry for me on her face tugged at my heartstrings. Somehow, I found myself wanting to be cared for by her. So I kept quiet while I mindlinked my men. ‘Deal with things here. I’m off.’ ‘Yes, Alpha.’ They responded in unison and I let Lea think she was helping me to the car when in reality, I was walking just fine. I didn’t put most of my weight on her. I felt the urge to laugh when she ran out of the car and came with a wheelchair from the hotel but I composed myself. All my life, I had no one to take care of me. Not my elder brothers, or my father. I had learned to hold my pain in, suffering in silence. Seeing someone’s concern for me for the first time warmed my heart. Even if it was the mate bond making her do that, I still fel
Lea I had felt embarrassed when Manuel openly refused me after I braced myself and made the first move. Goddess, it fucking hurt that for a split moment I thought he saw me as something dirty because of my past. To hide my shame, I wanted to run but he had pulled me back and claimed me. Well, he put a claim on my pussy which is as close as we could get to claiming for now. He said he wanted to tell me something before we fucked and so I waited for him on the bed but I found my eyelids getting heavy with each second. In the end, I slept off without realizing. The next day, I woke up to breakfast in bed and some changing clothes. I thanked him, something stirring in my heart as I washed up and sat down to eat my breakfast made up of chocolate croissants and coffee. Manuel had just come out from having a shower and was now dressing up in front of me, flexing his muscles. Goddess, he was such a tease. I could still see the red patches on his skin but I dared not ask again
Lea Emilio gave me one last glance, hatred flitting in his eyes and turned to leave. When he was finally far, I let go of my scent that I had been masking ever since he came for me at the border, breathing a sigh of relief. I didn’t want him to smell me and go into a frenzy. But I only had a hold on this ability when I was of sane mind. Once my heat escalated, I wouldn’t be able to hide my scent and every unmated wolf within proximity would lose their mind and be filled with lust. That’s why I had to find Manuel wherever he was before the full moon was at its peak. I raised my head and glared at the moon that was mocking me from the sky. I hate full moons. Sighing, I dragged myself into the mansion only to find someone I was not in the mood to see at the moment with the sharp cramps in my stomach and all. “Well, well, look who’s here. If it isn’t the boyfriend snatcher herself.” I rolled my eyes. The snarky comment came from none other than Natalie who stood in the livi
Lea Our kiss became more frenzied. Manuel was groaning, his teeth grazing my lips while I growled in response, grinding my throbbing core against his bare skin for some sort of relief. What I really wanted was to slam myself down on his hardened shaft that was poking my butt and ride him to tomorrow. We were like two savage beasts that had been starved for eternity as we licked, sucked and nipped each other's lips violently. Goddess, this was better than I expected. Our tongues rolled together in a sensual dance, trying to dominate one another but I was overpowered by Manuel and he sucked on my tongue viciously, sending me into a delirious high. Fuck. He wasn't holding back at all. He was gripping the back of my head tightly while his other hand was wrapped around my waist as he kissed me, deeply and hungrily, sucking on my bruised lip. He left my lips and buried his head in the crook of my neck. I could feel his fangs nipping on my pulse as he growled, breathing heavily.
Emilio. Manuel was like a brother to me. We grew up together. He spent most of his time at our house because of his abusive father. The Alpha back then. He was ruthless as they get. He sold our women as slaves and did drug trafficking in the human town. His reign was horrible. It was like we were in a dictatorship. He was also ruthless to his own son, Manuel who was his fourth and last son just because he was different. My parents were open-minded people so they welcomed him with open arms. He has been through a lot and that’s why I never want to see him get hurt. When he decided he wanted to become Alpha I helped him because I knew he would be a good leader, unlike his brothers who were hellbent on continuing with slave trade just like their tyrant of a father. Everything changed five years ago when Manuel came back looking like his whole world had ended. He refused to say anything but I would often hear him screaming in pain and his skin would get bruised. The kind of brui
Manuel. Hours prior… I had instructed my soldiers in the human town to be on the lookout for possible attacks. Since we had stopped their trade, the Romano Mafia was bound to retaliate soon. My only fear was the werewolves supplying them with our women would tell them our weakness which would make them attack the packs with weapons that could weaken our kind. I couldn't allow that to happen so I dispatched some of my strongest warriors to go and guard the packs we were in alliance with. I didn't send anyone to the white cloud pack because I believed Adrian was in on this. That bastard was far too sly. If my suspicions are correct, he wouldn't attack his own pack unless he's crazy. But yet again, I wouldn’t put it past him. He claimed to love Lea yet he abused her. I still had a score to settle with him on that one. We were on our way back to the Dark Storm pack but Lea wasn't making things easier for me. I don't know what was wrong with her or maybe I looked too charmi
Lea I was back from the library still thinking about what I had read in the books. Nothing talked about how to heal a wolf so I didn’t know how to help Manuel with that. I didn’t know he had been suffering because he was mateless. Was that what he had wanted to talk to me about? It was strange because I have never heard of such a thing and he was the first werewolf-vampire hybrid to exist in 500 years. From the stories I heard when I was little, the last hybrid was killed by his father 500 years ago because he couldn't control himself and ended up draining his own mother when the full moon was at its peak. Is that what happened to Manuel's father? Did he… a cold chill ran down my spine and I shivered. Nope. My Alpha is not like that otherwise he would have killed me last night. Thinking about last night, I couldn't help but feel a throbbing in my core. It was still sore but the feel of his shaft going in and out of me was so vivid, I felt like he was still inside of me.
