//Emily//

Heat rippled through my body and the scent of desire filled my lungs as the familiar silver gray eyes of the man I love was piercing through my soul: Max was simply perfect. Everything about him was mesmerizing.

He was perfectly made by the moon goddess.

His smiles, the eyes, voice, laugher, and his entire aura was breathtaking.

He is mine forever. My first love and my mate to be.... he was mine! All mine!

My breath seized as he hovered over me. Making me tremble beneath him like a desperate leaf during a heavy winter storm.

I was intoxicated by him. I found myself getting wet and moist between my legs. I wanted to moan out loud when his moist pink lips touched my ear...

“Ems” he whispers the short form of my name in the huskiest tone ever.

His face was an inch away from mine. And our lips were almost touching.

“My mate... I can’t wait to claim you, mark you, and make you mine forever “.

His words were followed by a powerful growl, and lust, danced in his orbs.

“ To be inside your sweet little pussy, fucking your brains out”.

I swallow my saliva as my eyes darkened with lust.

“ What are you waiting for max?! You can take me now” My voice was lower than normal...

I wanted him!

His sweet words had my core clenching to nothing. My mind clouded with mist and my thought was blocked with desire.

I felt myself losing control. Thinking of the unimaginable thing his fingers, cock and tongue will do to my body.

My body was weak for him. My hips moved on their own accord and I began grinding my moist core against him.

He was hard as fuck and I could feel his long dick through our clothes.

“Ems” he released a throaty groan and caged me in his strong arms. His lips gently brushed against mine.

And I lost it. My body became hot and needy as I continued grinding against him.

“ I want you, babe, I want a taste of that juicy pussy of yours”, he confessed and I lost the ability to breathe.

My heart skipped multiple beats and waves of need washed within me.

He wanted me too!

Max was saying all the right things. Things I desperately wanted to hear.

Is this real?

Is Max really in my bed?

Right at this moment, I didn’t care if It was real or not! All I cared about was having a moment with him. Having Max in my bed!

“ I want to sink my teeth into your marking spot.” Butterflies swarm in my stomach as he continued. “Ravish you, possess you and mate you”.

His teeth grazed my marking spot and a whimper of pleasure left my tiny lips.

His sweet talks made me excited. I was finally getting my wish. Tonight I was going to fulfill my greatest desire.

He will be mine and I will be his.

He licked my lower lips and I parted my lips, waiting impatiently for him to kiss me.

But he made no attempt... so I made the first move. By running my fingers through his brown hair and tugging him close.

He let out a sexy chuckle that had my core begging for his attention.

“Eager are we?” He nibbles his nose against mine and adds:

“Patience little one. We’re getting there”.

I took a sharp breath as his hand slowly moved under my short red nightdress, straight into my pant. His bold step knocked the air out of me.

A smirk graced his lips as he slowly moved his fingers towards my clit.

My breath became erratic and sparks of intense electricity jolted through my whole body.

My heart was going crazy, beating abnormally fast.

It was finally happening!

My clit was pulsating and more moisture pulled out of my core.

While eagerly waiting for his warm fingers to rub and tease my clit, I heard a voice that wasn’t Max’s.

“Emily!!” The voice yelled.

Who was that? The voice was not calm and alluring like Max.

Who was trying to destroy my happiness?!

“ Someone is calling little one. We have to stop here”. Max mumbles and tries’s drawing his hand away from the core.

No!

No!

I quickly grab his hand halting his movement and move his fingers towards my core..,

“ No, we need to continue, I need this Max” I whined in annoyance and frustration.

“ Emily Starling. Get your ass out of bed before I do something we’ll both regret”. This time the voice was clear and familiar...

Mother!!

That was my mother’s voice. Her tone was stern and firm.

“ Emily up now!”. Her voice had so much power that I jolt out of bed startled.

While rubbing the sleep off my eyes, I snapped my head searching for Max but he was nowhere in sight.

I looked down and found my spare pillow between my legs.

How did this get here?

Shit!!!

Was Max truly here?

Or was this a dream?

Damn it, goddess!

I was this close to getting my man. How can you play such a steamy, toe curling joke on me?

I huff in irritation and smack my bed with my clenched fist.

Urrggghh!!!

I wrestled to untangle the blanket wrapped around my legs... I was sex deprived in my dream and irritated at the damn time.

I huff annoyed more than ever. Although my cheeks were heated up from the steamy dream.

“ You look flushed girly! That was one hell of a dream”. Leah, my pervert wolf giggled and barked”. I enjoyed every bit of it”.

“ I’m sure you did,”. I remarked with a grin.

I shifted my gaze to the clock on the nightstand. It showed the time as half past seven.

Shit!

I was late for training. I quickly jumped out of bed and rushed into the bathroom.

I got rid of my nightdress and stopped in the middle of the bathroom turning to the large mirror on the wall.

I stole a glance at my reflection, the damage done over the night was overrated.

My wild red hair was in huge chaos, flying in all directions. I could be mistaken as a zombie in the walking dead movie.

Not just my hair, my lips were red and sore as if I had been bitten by rats in my sleep.

I sighed and stepped into the shower. I turned on the regulator and tried to bath as fast as possible.

I didn’t want to piss my mother off. She was grumpy at this time of the day since she was not a morning person. She hated all mornings. Something I inherited. Provoking her would be like signing your death warrant.

I chuckled at my exaggerated thought.

The warm water ran down my hair and body, and I couldn’t stop thinking of Max.

Maxwell Warner is the son of my father’s best friend and Alpha of the String breakers pack.

Max is the next in line to the alpha and my all time crush. He is the kind of guy every girl want at first glance.

I first met him a year ago when he visited my pack with his father. After he finished his studies in London and came back to Orlando.

He enchanted me with his looks at first glance and I couldn’t help myself but ogle at him admiring his manly features.

During his short visit, Max didn’t spare me a glance but that didn’t stop my attraction to him.

I began having a huge crush on him. And since that time, I daydreamed about him and how it will feel like to be in his strong arm.

I had several dreams where he asked me out on a date. These dreams boast my confidence and desire to have him as my man and mate.

Not long after, I started sending him love letters anonymously and stalking him here and there.

Haha, I know what you’re thinking

Psychopath right ??

I call it a secret admirer.....

I shook my head and quickly ran the thought out of my mind before I stepped out of the shower.

After a quick bath, I dressed in tight black athletic shorts and matched them with a silver gray sports bra, just like the color of Max’s eyes.

I smiled to myself and tied my red hair in a high ponytail. Just as I was about to tie my shoelace, my mother yelled.

“ Emily! What are you still doing in your room? Don’t make me come there and drag you out”. My mother's grumpy voice echoed in the walls of the house.

“ Mama, I will be out in a minute”. I shouted in reply.

I took another glance at my reflection in the mirror, before I dashed out of my bedroom.

I jogged down the stairs and maneuvered my way into the kitchen...
