WHEN we reached our bedroom, Luther kicked the door closed and laid me down on the bed. I can see it in his eyes. Tonight, we were two hungry monsters. One will devour and one will be devoured. That was the promise written in his eyes.And I looked forward to it. Very much.“Spread your legs more for me, darling,” Luther commanded softly as he unzipped his pants. I did exactly as he asked, his eyes were blazing when he followed me onto the bed.I welcomed him with my arms. I wrapped my arms around his neck as he grabbed my thighs. And without another word, he entered me.At last.It was an emotional union that it almost made me cry. It felt so powerful… so satisfying. There was a slight pain, but it faded so soon. I didn’t know how much I had been anticipating for this until it finally happened tonight. And maybe Luther had felt it, too because he paused as if he was savoring the feeling of being one with me.With this, I could feel my bond with Giovanni totally disappearing tonight.
“WHAT do you think?” Luther asked after we finished reading the content of the invitation card which Suzanna had brought for us earlier. It was Magnus Alvarez’s sixtieth birthday which will be held tomorrow night. And both of us were invited.I looked up to Luther. “What about you? Do you want to go?”My head was resting on his lap while I was lying on the carpet. Both of us were only wearing robes since we just finished taking a shower together. After we had breakfast, we stayed in the balcony to read some files. We now share the reports that we gather from our subordinates and exchange ideas afterwards.Luther was smarter and more capable than I thought. He gets the gist of things easily. It was always a pleasure discussing things with him.“Well, if it’s up to me, I’ll just lock you here forever and make love to you all day and all night.” He sighed. “It’s safer here since almost every single guest in that party would want us dead except for the Alvarez family. You know that. But y
ALEXANDRA was busy chatting with the female guests beside the buffet table. Since she was smiling, others would think that she had found friends already. But I knew better. That was a dangerous smile right there. Behind that alluring smile, I knew she was pissed because she couldn’t eat her meat properly since the women wouldn’t leave her alone. What was wrong with these creatures? They looked like a bunch of gangsters in stilettos.My wife only wanted to eat in peace.I was about to mediate so Alexandra could finally eat quietly when Kenji showed up with a silly expression on his face.“Aren’t you going to say something to me? I’ve been waiting for it, you know.”“Get out of my way, you traitor. You have no idea how scary my wife is when she gets hungry. If you don’t want her to shift and turn us into her meal, go, evaporate.”Kenji looked betrayed. “How was I a traitor? I contributed so much in your marriage life! If not for the call I did, your wife wouldn’t have realized her feeli
I OUGHT to be guilty at least. But damn. I only felt mesmerized while looking at Alexandra. This was cheating. Does she even know what her laughter does to people?After some time, I shrugged. “Glad to know you were entertained. And you didn’t look jealous at all.”She was still smiling when she uttered, “If you look at them the way you look at me, I would have exploded by now. But Luther, you didn’t give me the chance to feel jealous. I’m grateful. Their words have no power over me because I know who and what I am in your life.”Her confidence, her stance, her smile, everything was sexy. I held her hand and kissed it, my teeth deliberately scraped her skin. If only we were at home, I would have pushed her down already. We did it before we left the house. As soon as I saw her in the gown, I pushed her against the wall and made love to her.Remembering it made me want to do it again and again. No matter how many times I took her, it will never be enough. Even until now, her taste still
“WEREN’T you afraid that I might embarrass you?” I asked Luther.He chuckled. “I know you wouldn’t do that. Besides, as if that would ever happen. Even if you just stood there and do nothing, you will still be beautiful. And I will still be clapping. Other men wouldn’t admit it, but deep down, they were clapping for you, too.”I smiled. Never in my life would I admit that I did that to make everyone see that Luther was now off the market. I would never have cared whose party this was or whose birthday we were celebrating. If I didn’t want to perform, no one could force me. But since in a way, it involved Luther, I felt like I had to show off… a little.I could still feel the lustful stares the women were showering him with. I could hear their every conversation. Some of the women here were the ones he used to date, women who wanted to have him back while some still wanted to have a taste of him despite the ring on his finger.And when it came to that department, it was hard to blame t
“I WILL give you a chance to change your mind. After all, I will be staying in this town for a while. That’s possible, right? Werewolves are now free to live with humans. Vampires should do the same.”“Three is a crowd. Haven’t you heard that? And you’ve had your fun. Wasn’t that enough?” I probed.We had been fooled. There was no Mage in San Antonio at all. This man’s scent was the reason why everybody thought Duncan had gotten over his wife so quickly. He came in her wake with this same floral scent. Now I understood that he put on that cologne in his desire to mask the scent of blood.And this hybrid was showing me how it worked. The scent of the werewolf’s blood had slowly disappeared and this floral scent was taking over, ensnaring almost everyone in the area, especially women.Duncan was collaborating with this hybrid. Right now, I think I would have preferred a Mage over a Vampire. If it was a Mage, with the right transaction, we might win without going to battle. But if it was
(Alexandra)TONIGHT, I was reminded of the many reasons why I fell in love with my husband. Even when I was already his, I still find myself falling more and more in love with him every hour, every day. At times, he was charming, playful, witty, sexy, romantic, and extremely adorable.But tonight, he was all that. And more.When we got inside the car, he didn’t drive immediately. He looked at me, his eyes wide-open. Then he leaned on his seat as if someone had stolen all his energy. He let out a sigh of relief and uttered, “We’re saved! I thought this was going to be my last time attending a party. Damn. I’m still one lucky son of a bitch!”I burst out laughing. It turned out that behind his smiles, he was nervous, too. Although it didn’t show.A moment ago, after I saw the hybrid drink a werewolf’s blood, I was so close to losing it. But when Luther showed up, acting like some sort of a celebrity, giving autographs and taking pictures, all the tension in my body evaporated.All that
(Luther)MY GRIP tightened around the stirring wheel while staring at the Victorian-style mansion a few meters away from me. After the incident which almost killed me, the Governor went off the grid. He had abandoned all his political responsibilities, his people, his friends, and went into hiding which made him the number two most searched politician in the country. The number one spot belonged to his half-brother who was suffering from the backlash of his previous actions including perjury, human rights violation, and corruption.“Now that we found out who your father was working for and we’ve dealt with almost all of the elites, I think it’s time to close the curtains,” Alexandra told me this morning before I left. We spent the entire night digging what we could about the Vampires. Beatrix, Giovanni, Kenji, and my team members were with us to learn, too.We had to familiarize ourselves with the new fans since they will be the next people we will have to face. The sudden spike in di
