Alaric's POV. There was no reason for excitement, but watching how I troubled Alana made me smile. I was content, and for some reasons, I couldn't wait for her to be done with the food. My wolf was in a thrill. Scanning my eyes around the room, I figured there was nothing much that I could do, so I went back to the balcony, where the evening sky shimmered with a beautiful sunset."The Anatomy of the Lungs." I read it on the cover of the book that Alana was reading. A smile crept up my face at the fact that she really meant it when she said she was interested in being a pack doctor. I picked up the book and squinted my eyes at the crest at the upper edge.It was from the shadow pack. She must have gotten it in one of our libraries. "What could she be studying in here?" My wolf questioned me from inside, which only further pushed me to scan through the pages.She was obviously learning about infections that a werewolf could get in their lungs. Someone cared, after all. Just as I lo
Alaric's POVI picked up the glass cup next to the cabinet that contained an apple cider drink and gulped it into my throat to ease the disgust of a meal.At the same time, Alana walked back into the room with fright in her body's composure. Swallowing the rest of the salt in my tongue with my eyes closed in irritation, I pointed my palm to it."What is this? Alana, what did you do?" Her face dashed from me to the plate and back on me then she shrugged, acting innocent. This was my fault. I had been the one who wanted to be nice, and in return, this was what I got. "Oh, it's clear now. You want revenge, and thus you waited for a time when I would slip, and then you could poison me." I stood up and threw the cup against the wall. The effect emitted a shattering sound, and as the pieces rattled on the ground with a crinkling sound, my eyes burned at Alana. "Just say the truth. You were waiting for me to come to you, and then you could fool me, is that it?" There was a frown settle
Alana's POV.Stay back... what was he doing so close to me? His fingers were holding my jaw so firm that there was no escape for me. I tried to shift, but his hand was stuck to the wall, next to my body, just so that he could pin me. Oh, goodness. I hope it's not what I'm thinking! He couldn't have insulted me not long ago and wanted to...I blinked to take the thoughts out of my head. His face was getting closer and closer, and then my brain froze for a second at what I had done."Ala...fuc...fuck!" He screamed out loud, and my body came alive at his comprehension. "Oh, jeez. I didn't... I never meant to." I held out my hands because I wanted to help him, but how could I? He groaned with his deep-rooted tone and crouched as he grabbed his balls. "What the fuck did you do that for?" My whole body broke in a haywire, uncertain of what to do next. Then, suddenly, it came to me, and I ran out of the room, but not without saying. "I'm so sorry. I swear, I hadn't meant to."He was
Alaric's POV. My jaw was twitching in ire at what Alana did. How dare she?I tried to stand up, and woah... "Ouch." I grabbed my stomach again, not directly wanting to touch my balls. Jeez, I can only imagine how blue my balls would be right now. As I thought of it, my brows raised. Where could she run to? Her room? My wolf chuckled a sinister laughter. Did she think she would find solace after what she's done to me? I tried to stand up upright and head over to her room. As soon as I got there, I wasn't calm at all. "Alana!" I called out her name, but she did not respond. I could hear the sound of her heaved breathing.But just as I called out her name, she went into a frozen lapse. Alana's breathing was calmed before, which made me assume she was sleeping, and from the aura I sensed in her room, she was low-spirited. When I knocked on the door, I heard her gasp, waking up in the aftermath of what she'd done. "Alana, open this door now!" Again, I called out, except this time
Alana's POV. "And viola, you're ready for dinner." Aliya said from my back as she watched me from my reflection in the mirror. She had a glint in her eyes, which confirmed to me that she wasn't pulling my legs. "Thank you," I said and turned to her, using the rotation on the leather chair in front of my dresser. In a brief moment, she closed her eyes and gave me the sweetest of all the smiles she could summon. "I appreciate your help. You indeed saved me once again. I love the dress." I said and stared at my reflection again. I was in a dark red gown that streamed down my petite frame. Its material and designs are simple, as was its flare too, but it also showed elegance, and because of its cut, from the thigh of my right leg down to my feet was exposed."Anytime, Alana." I stood up and went to pull her into a hug. I knew she needed it. It was night and after she left here, she would go back to the maids quarters, where she would meet Lucy once again. "I'm so sorry about what
Alaric's POV "Are you surprised?" I asked Alana, who had her eyes widened, and she stared at me. She was completely startled that she remained frozen, and I could assume for her that she knew there was no other place to run to now. "Now the cat has gotten your tongue?" I found myself laughing at her predicament. Something about Alana was just funny to me. I couldn't tell if it was the fact that she was scared of me. Or could it be because I could sense another emotion, which was arousal inside of her?She had intertwined feelings, and I could sense the eclecticness between each of them. "What are you doing in my room?" She asked after she released her breath, bit after bit, in a shaky tone.Hm. It seemed she had finally found her voice. "This is my palace, my pack house. There is nothing that I cannot do anywhere. All places and spots belong to me." I said.I was seated on an armless chair that was fairly far from where the bed was. And the light coming from the lamp gave exact
Alaric's POV. My wolf could as well howl inside me right now. The effect we had on Alana excited us, and while I know, even for me, it was stupid to play with her emotions, it was mad fun. And the craziest thing was that I almost lost control. When I was spilling those words, a part of me wanted to actually do it. My cock was still hard even now, but the material of my trouser was keeping it in check. Although I wonder how long I could hold myself back before I finally give it to my body's want... or lust, perhaps? I needed a shower tonight. I was sure. A flow of water cascading down my body would help me to relax and take the thoughts out of my head. My thoughts soon drifted to Alana and the way she was glowering at me as I said those words.She even pleaded!"She begged for me." I chuckled as I said the words aloud, then looked around, and when I saw no one, my stomach continued waltzing around. And I replayed the way her eyes blazed into mine. She wanted me so badly, and I wa
Ava's POV. "Madam, we are here." The driver said to me and I opened my eyes. I adjusted myself on the seat and made a humming sound. "Okay. Have the maids pack my goods into my room once you've parked well. Is that clear?" I added, and he nodded his head with his face twisted to the side to show that he was listening. "Yes, Ma'am.""I hope I do not have to repeat myself."I got out of the car and proceeded forward to the front gate. Before I entered, I took one glance at the exterior and sighed.It's been a while since I've been here. I had gone on some girl's time with my friends, and that was suggested by Alaric, but now that I was back, I could not wait to see him. I headed into Alaric's room and called out. "Baby, I'm back!" In my hands was a gift that I got from him, which I was sure he would like. Inside contained a gold necklace incited with a Latin language on its anchor pendant. I knew Alaric was a book lover, and he especially loved the Latin language and Latin charact
