SOLANA

Slowly, almost in a daze, Alpha Roman moved over to me. His nostrils flared, and he squinted at me. Anna had told me his senses were muted. Could he...smell me?

"Why..." his voice was rough when he spoke. He reached out a trembling hand to cup my face. "...do you smell like that?"

I gulped, my heart pounding with excitement. He could smell me!

How?

Why?

I didn't do anything special. I didn't even put on perfume. Tara told me not to. She said my scent was the best smell she had ever perceived.

My husband's beautiful eyes met mine, his confusion obvious. He buried his face against my neck, his nose grazing my skin. I bit my lower lip, blood rushing to my cheeks. This position felt too intimate, so much that I didn't know how to behave.

"Do I smell good?" I asked breathlessly, reaching up to bring my hand to the back of his head. His rosy scent serenaded me, causing me to close my eyes as he burrowed into my neck, a soft sound escaping his lips.

"Yes, so good. Is this your n

    SOLANA I waited anxiously the next morning. My husband wasn't in bed when I awoke. Naturally, I quickly got ready, thinking he would come over to ask me to follow him to the trial. I was terrified out of my mind, going through a thousand possibilities in my head."You've been staring at the clock for quite a while now, Luna. Is there something you're waiting for?" Anna asked me.We were in the sitting room, and she was sitting on a rocking chair, working on an embroidery.I shifted in my chair, unsure if it was okay to tell her about my concerns.She leaned towards me with a smile. "Or...are you waiting for a certain someone?""N-no, it's not like that," I spluttered, and she chuckled."Tell that to your red ears," she said, and I brought my hands to my ears, biting my lower lip.Deciding to pick up my courage, I inched towards her."Do you know where Alpha Roman went?" I asked.Her eyes sparkled. "You should've just said so instead of looking so worried. He's in the gym."I gap

  • The Demon Alpha’s Kryptonite   Chapter 15

    SOLANA A soft smile ghosted over his lips as he searched my eyes intensely, and I bit my lower lip trying not to smile wider. Did he really just crack a joke, or was it unintentional? Either way, it was enough to snap me out of the haze of sadness that had engulfed me earlier. "Do you mean it? Do you really not know how to..." He nodded slowly, and my eyes widened. "Nigel suggested that I look it up online, but all I saw was a bunch of naked, lust-addled people. They were rather rough with their women. It was disturbing, really." Amused, I held up my hands, holding them to both sides of his face. He was truly innocent, wasn't he? He squinted at me, those long eyelashes of his fluttering slightly. "Why are you staring at me like that?" He asked. "You are so cute, do you know that?" I breathed and he blinked. "Really?" I nodded, and he sighed. "You think I'm being ridiculous, don't you?" I grinned. "Do you have a deadline or something? Is there a reason why you mus

  • The Demon Alpha’s Kryptonite   Chapter 14

    SOLANA There was smoke everywhere, screams filling the air. My priority was keeping the little ones safe.Fear had me in its clutches, but I couldn't afford to give in.I threw myself over the cowering children, my arms spread wide as another explosion rattled the walls. Dust rained down, mixing with the scent of blood and burnt wood. "Stay behind me!" I shouted, my throat raw. "Don't move!"I could barely breathe, my eyes darting across the burning hall. The attackers were everywhere. They were moving too fast. Nigel and the warriors were fighting back, but there were too many of them.A loud shriek pierced the air, and my heart sank.Before I could turn, one of the children was ripped from my grasp. My heart stopped. I spun, catching a glimpse of a masked rogue disappearing into the smoke with the child dangling from his arm."No!" I screamed, sprinting after him.I wouldn't lose him.Never.My vision blurred, heat flooded my chest, and my limbs shook violently. My wolf pushed

    ROMAN Her face was instantly drained of colour. I couldn't help but wonder what was going through her mind. When the filthy creature from earlier had spewed the words from his blood-stained teeth in desperation, I'd allowed myself to think he was only lying.Then he dared to ask me to confirm it from her. I slit his throat after, of course.No one gets to humiliate my person in front of me and lives to tell the tale. People will assume he randomly disappeared. The smart ones will figure out that I'd struck again."I...I—"Solana dropped to her knees in front of me, her head hanging low. "I didn't mean t-to hide it. It doesn't m-mean anything. My w-wolf has been suppressed for a long time."Every stammer that left those precious pouty lips made my chest tighten.Well, she didn't apologize this time. Good.Damaris wolves were considered extremely dangerous. Anyone with that kind of wolf was usually killed on sight by the council.But this poor woman was already dying, why should

    SOLANA Alpha Roman's expression didn't change. Mine did. Because, suddenly, it hit me that I'd seen this man before. I knew that voice. He took a step forward, his boots echoing against the marble. "Tell me, Alpha Roman," he began, his tone mocking, "what made you take a lowly maid as your Luna?" A ripple of discomfort swept through the room. Someone gasped softly. Someone else snickered. My lungs constricted. But he wasn't done. "Surely," he continued, "you knew she'd been defiled by other men before you, didn't you? Or perhaps that's what you liked about her. She's used goods, easy to break." The words landed like knives against my skin. Blood rushed in my ears. I couldn't breathe. For a split second, everything around me vanished, and I was back in the Red Grove pack. Back in that dark room that reeked of smoke and sweat. Elric's laughter echoed in my skull. "She doesn't mind, do you, pet? Let them have a taste." And him... the man standing before me now... He'd been

    SOLANA "How are you feeling, Lana?" Tara asked as she helped with my hair. I was seated in front of the mirror, wearing a blue silk dress. Apparently, Alpha Roman had bought me the dress. He never gave it to me personally, though. And when I went to thank him, he barely nodded in acknowledgment.Two days had passed since the incident in the dining room. My mate had been avoiding me since then. But what could I do? There was no escaping my reality.Tara sighed, placing her hands on my shoulder."You've drifted into your head again. What are you thinking about?" She asked.I forced out a smile. "It's nothing, really.""Are you sure you're ready for tonight? Alphas from different packs will be arriving with their Lunas. It's a big event, you know?" She said, and the knot in my stomach tightened.I wasn't sure if I was ready. My husband couldn't stand to be in the same room with me. How was I supposed to pretend in front of our guests that we were a perfectly happy couple?I bet e
