RASMONThings seemed to be going well for us—extremely well. They would’ve been better if I didn’t have these secrets weighing me down but the magic was that when I was around her, everything was perfect and I didn’t have any complaints. My life was perfect. I couldn’t imagine it getting any better than this. I’d been with women before. Lorena was someone I had feelings for, and I wouldn’t say otherwise simply because she disappointed me. I wasn’t that kind of person, and I wasn’t ashamed of the way I felt. We’d been together a long time—long before the war that decided our fates began. But it was physical. I would have sex with her and I’d enjoy it, but there was nothing beyond that, and perhaps that was the reason why I never took things a step further with her. There was nothing there. I hadn’t met a woman who messed with my emotions before. It was safe to say that no woman I’d ever encountered had touched my heart and soul the way Verania did, long before we found out we were
VERANIA“Rasmon!” I moaned as stars exploded behind my closed lids. His head was between my legs, and he feasted. My whole body shook from the pleasure of his tongue and lips sucking and teasing the delicate button between my legs. I arched my back. My orgasm grew, and my core tightened. He continued lapping at my clit nonstop, and I couldn't take it anymore. I exploded. “You taste so good, wildflower,” he said against my flesh. The look in his eyes was almost drunken, and he kept sucking at my flesh while I fell apart again and again, and when his fingers disappeared into my heat, that was when I could barely sit. I kept moaning and rubbing myself against his face, needing more. My thighs hugged his face, and he never stopped, not even when I was sure that I was squeezing his face tightly. When he was done, he flipped me around. I was on my knees, holding onto the back of the couch. He fisted my hair in his hand and pulled so my neck was arched. Then, he kissed my mouth. I taste
RASMONI planned on spending the whole day with her. Right now, the whole world could wait. I was taking her to a place I got right after we invaded the packs. It was a small house atop a hill. You could see the whole country from there. I asked Aunt Verona to take care of things and call me if she needed anything or if something came up. “Just have fun, alright? You don’t know how it pleases me to see you like this. You’re glowing, nephew.”“Thank you, Aunt.”“Take good care of her,” she pleaded. “Verania…she’s sensitive. She’s not like anyone else I’ve ever met before. She might seem strong, but when her feelings are wounded, they’ll be seriously wounded. You know what I mean, don’t you?”Of course, I knew what she meant. Now that we were mates, it was awful that I was keeping so many things from her. There was so much I wanted to share with her. I went from avoiding her completely to wanting to give her everything I’d ever had. It was surreal. Special. Different. I knew from t
VERANIAIn the morning, it was pain that woke me. My arm was stiff and when I turned to the side, I saw that my mark bled all over the pillows. Rasmon wasn't in bed, and I had to suppress how disappointed I felt that he was gone. Where was he?I tried to feel for him, but for some reason, there was nothing inside of me and it was almost like I imagined the whole connection. Then again, it wasn't something that we discussed. If it weren't for the mark, I would've assumed that last night was just a dream. Despite the pain, though, I felt energized. It was a new feeling. It was like I didn't need anything. Lately, I'd been waking up exhausted and tired of the day ahead of me before it even started. Right next I felt brand new. I rose from bed, ignoring the pain, and headed into the bathroom to clean up. When my wound looked better, I wrapped a robe around my naked body and went to my bedroom. Thankfully, I didn't come across anyone. I chose a dress to wear, then headed downstairs
VERANIA I woke up in his arms, and we were still on the forest floor. My stirring caused him to wake up, and then our eyes met in the dark. It wasn’t pitch black because there was still a sliver of the moon left in the sky. A small smile tugged at the corners of his lips, and my heart warmed. Everything else faded away. The anger. The bitterness. The resentment. All that mattered was this. “My wildflower,” he murmured before tightening his hold around me. “My everything.”I blushed and my body tightened. I realized then that there was still something inside of me, and it was him. He felt me clench and a dark look entered his eyes. I knew what it was as clear as day. I felt it deep inside of me too along with everything he was. Every emotion that went through his mind. Right now, it was lust. And I felt the same thing he did. His lips found mine, and we kissed slowly, our tongues touching tentatively. Every stroke of his tongue along mine made me clench around him, and in no t
VERANIA I stared at Rasmon and wondered if my mind was making up images of him. Was he really standing in front of me? How was this possible? I ran away and I’ve been running around in circles, trying to find the exit to this place. How did he find me so quickly?Most importantly…why did I immediately recognize him as my mate?My heart was beating undeniably faster. He started toward me slowly, eyes wide. Could he feel the same thing I did? Did he know I was his mate? It had to be a mutual thing, right? So, I’d be shocked if he didn’t know, especially since I felt so strongly toward him. “Verania,” he whispered. “It’s alright. Come to me. Everything will be fine.”I almost went to him, but then I remembered how he sent me away because of Lorena, and I hesitated. My anger returned, and I felt it blind me all over again. It was so difficult to navigate through it. “Verania, I know you’re upset, but it’s fine. The man you bit will be okay. The doctor is with him now.”I looked up at
