Nikolai’s POV
“Don’t you think that making Lilliana Jenna’s personal slave is a bit extreme?” My best friend André's voice jolted me out of my thoughts as I stared at Lillian and I moved my gaze towards him but quickly returned it to Lillana.We’ve been best friends since we were kids and he was always the one managing to pull me back on the right path anytime I was making a decision that I was going to regret but today was different.“It’s not too extreme,” I responded, “I need her to know who calls the shot around here, it’s only a matter of time before she breaks so let’s see how much torture she can take.” I added, trying my best to sound unbothered.“Why do you want to torture her that much though?” André asked and I shrugged, “I think it’s too much and believe it or not but your father liked her before he died, treating her like this after rejecting her is just unfair.” He continued.My gaze lifted and from the look on his face I could tell that he knew better than to try and say another word about the way I’m treating Lilliana to me. Smiling, I brushed my anger off.“I’m not my father.” I finally said with a smile before changing the topic and talking about the pack’s affairs. The only way to get Lilliana to give into my offer is by making her life miserable.Letting go of her really isn’t an option and since she’s trying to act all strong and stubborn, I’m willing to wait and see just how long it takes before she comes crawling back to me and begging for mercy.She wouldn’t have any other choice than to agree to be mine.My eyes followed Lilliana as she ran away from me and I really tried but I couldn’t control the anger that surged through my veins by just seeing the bruises on her neck.It was as though someone had just strangled her and all I could think about is to go to Jenna’s room and punish her but doing that would mean that I have feelings for her aside from just wanting her to be my breeder.She was like a damsel in distress but I’m no prince to want to try and ease her stress, I wanted to add more to it in a way that she was going to beg for more from me.I watched as she frantically rushed away from me, from my intense gaze that was biting into her skin. Her dirty blonde hair packed up in a messy bun that fell as she ran.My chest clenched when my eyes landed on her wrist and I realized that her neck wasn’t only the only part of her body that was bruised. My fist clenched and my teeth gritted.Dismissing André, I walked as fast as my legs could carry me to my chambers and my palm itches as I broke the glass in my room.I’m not supposed to be feeling pity for her and if anything, I’m supposed to be on the quest of destroying her._____________It’s been three days and Lilliana was still taking her torture, she avoided me and goes in the opposite direction anytime I approached. The way she seemed unbothered angered me but I knew that it wasn’t going to be for long.The full moon is going to be out tonight and she’s going to go into heat. The thoughts got me excited and I could hear my Lycan growling in anticipation of what was going to happen.She’s going to be a menace and the last thing I want is to relieve her of the heavy burden. Smiling to myself, I called one of the maids and instructed that Lilliana should be the one to serve my breakfast.Jenna was out so I had the time to take in her features without getting unnecessarily interrupted. My dick twitched as I watched her move around, she looked stressed but still so appealing that all I wanted to do was devour her.She poured my wine and her delicate wrist called out to me, the black velvet of her dirty dress heightened the translucent beauty of her face and I found myself enthralled by every single move she made.Her throat looked warm and I couldn’t stop picturing my cock buried deep inside it, I couldn’t stop imagining fucking her face until it was bright red and her eyes were pleading for me to stop.Her perky boobs got a silent groan out of me and I quickly snapped out of it before I’m unable to control myself. She’s stronger than I imagined and I hate to see her keep suffering when all she has to do is just agree to be mine but she’s not letting up.“You have to stay until I’m done.” I ordered when she was about to leave and with her head low and her demeanor down, she stood until I finished eating.I knew what being in my presence was doing to her body, to her Lycan and it was amusing just watching her trying to fight me off without making it obvious.I stood when I finished breakfast and Lilliana bowed as she started clearing the table. Without thinking, I took her hand and spun her around until she almost fell but my hand wrapped around her waist stopped her from hitting the ground.She was startled by my action, her eyes widened and she tried to wriggle out of my hold but my grip only tightened around her each time she tried to fight me off.Her smell was intoxicating and I could smell the fluid gushing out between her legs, my eyes closed, my dick kicked again and I immediately released her.She might see me as the evil Alpha but the last thing I was going to do is touch her without her permission.“I’m giving you one last chance, Lilliana,” I started as I pulled away from her, “give in to my offer and enjoy a life of absolute freedom where no one would dare treat you like a slave.” I finished but she didn’t say anything.“How long are you going to keep trying to fight me off when you know really well that you want this too?” I almost yelled, her stubbornness was getting on my nerves and pissing me off.Sighing, I gave up trying to convince her, if she wants to keep suffering then she can be my guest. Dismissing her, she walked so slowly out of the dining hall that she almost fell again.The urge to run over there and pick her up was strong but I fought it off. If she’s asking for it then she has to deal with it.I watched as she left and with nothing else to do, I made my way to my study to get some work done and soon the door opened as André walked in. I’d asked one of the guards to call him for me.“It’s almost evening, Lilliana is going to be in heat and the last thing I want is her driving the men crazy.” I said without lifting my head from the paper I was working on and understanding what I meant, André left.Trying to flood myself to work, concentrating was difficult and I ended up finding myself staring at her files. My eyes landed on the small clock in front of me and I couldn’t hold myself back.Dropping the file, I got out of the palace and went to the safe house where I knew that André had taken her to. I didn’t want to go but with Lilliana being involved, I find myself doing things I wouldn’t have done for anyone, for her.Opening the door, I walked in and my gaze landed on Lilliana, she was sitting with her legs clutched up to her chest. She barely looked at me and from her reaction I could tell that it was starting.Her scent was drawing me to her, my vision blurred and I was about to approach her when I gave it a second thought. She was rubbing her thighs together but barely looking at me.The scent of her arousal filled the room and slight sobs escaped her lips, my chest tightened as I moved closer to her. I crouched in front of her and my hand brushed a strand of hair but she flinched and moved away from me.What was I thinking? That she was going to want this?Standing to my feet, I turned to leave but stopped in my tracks when she called my name. The sound of my name rolling out of her tongue sounded like music to my ears and I wanted to hear more.I wanted to hear her moan my name while I fuck her, I want to hear her scream it as her fingers clawed at my back while my cock plunged into her delicate softness.Ignoring her, I took another step but was stopped again when I felt a pull back on my leg. I turned to see her on her knees, her face and eyes were red as tears glistened through her eyes.She looked up at me and my breath caught, her sparkling baby blue eyes desperately begging me to make whatever she was feeling stop but that wasn’t enough, I needed more and just at that moment, she finally spoke.“Make it stop, please.”Nikolai’s POV“NIKOLAI!” Lilliana’s loud and alarmed voice reached me in the bathroom where I’d gone to take the ointment for her back.I didn’t need a soothsayer to tell me that she’d already probably seen the mark on her back. Hurried, my feet padded back to the bedroom and I walked in to Lilliana freaking out.Her towel had dropped to the ground and she had an obvious look of terror on her face. Tears already welled up in her eyes as she stared at me.“W— What’s going on? How did these marks get there? What’s happening?” She asked, freaking out and thrown into a world of confusion.“Calm down, it’s nothing serious, I promise I’ll get to the bottom of things and we’ll get something done about the claw marks.”“Do you even hear what you’re saying?” She screamed and I could’ve sworn that my eardrums bursted with that loud sound.“They are claw marks on my back and you’re asking me to calm down,” she screeched, “how did they get there? What’s happening? Do you know something?” She bomb
Lilliana’s POVGroaning, my eyes fluttered open and I stretched out to feel Nikolai beside me. His eyes were closed and his sleeping features were hotter than ever.Everything seemed peaceful and as the memories of what happened last night flooded my mind, I felt myself melting.We’d left the dinner hall and had a really good time before falling asleep. A smile formed on my lips and I moved Nikolai’s hair away from his face.“When you stare at me like that, it makes me want to eat you for breakfast.” Nikolai’s voice jolted me out of my thoughts as he pulled me into him.“Maybe I won’t stop staring at you like that then.” I threatened and I felt his cock kick against me.“Well, Good Morning.” I smiled, grinding against his cock and feeling it grow even harder and an inch longer.“Stop doing that, you still look exhausted.” Nikolai warned but stopping was the last thing I wanted to do.I’ve been feeling unusually horny these days and right now I wanted him to fuck me but he seemed too w
Lilliana’s POV“I’m sorry,” I muttered an apology to Kieran with no idea why when he’d just told me that he hoped Nikolai would treat me right.I don’t know why this man seems to think that he has to have a say on my relationship and I hate the fact that whenever he says things like this, he says it with so much confidence.It’s almost like he’ll be waiting in a corner for when Nikolai messes up so that he could tell me that he did warn and tell me so.“Also, Nikolai has always been treating me right, I don’t doubt the fact that he’s going to do so tonight too.” I smiled and Kieran nodded.“Right, I’m sorry about that, I just say things without thinking.” He apologized, smiling as he walked me to the entrance of the hall.“You should go now.” He finished and with a nod, I walked closer to the entrance before turning to look at him but he only urged me on.If anyone had told me that Kieran could be this nice and this much of a gentleman, I would’ve argued because he has always been a j
Lilliana’s POVI was still stuck behind the big oak tree with Kieran, the night was silent, peaceful but there was nothing peaceful with being either Kieran.I’d just seen him walk into the dinner hall clinging onto Jenna and I know I shouldn’t care but I couldn’t help the multiple questions that kept running through my mind.Are they dating now or their date was supposed to end as soon as the dinner was over?Sighing, I pinched the bridge of my nose and couldn’t believe that I was stuck with Kieran of all people, my heart raced and I felt uncomfortable.“What were you doing in the bush all alone?” His voice jolted me out of my thoughts and I shuddered, “you could’ve really gotten yourself killed, Lilliana, what were you thinking?” He added.Turning my head to look in his direction, I felt the hairs at the nape of my neck curling as the cold breeze grazed my ear like the touch of cold fingers.The last thing I wanted was to get myself engaged in a conversation with Kieran, even though
Lilliana’s POVWalking as fast as my legs could carry me, I could feel my heart racing and I knew really well that it was because of Jenna.She was the last person I was expecting to see and I can’t just stand being in the same space as her.I felt bad for judging too soon too because a part of me felt like Nikolai didn’t really know that she was going to show up to the dinner.The sound of my phone ringing jolted me out of my thoughts but I continued walking since I already knew who was calling. It was Nikolai and he had called multiple times already but I’d decided to ignore the calls.I wasn’t mad at him or anything because I knew there was an explanation for everything and in Nikolai’s case, he didn’t know she was coming but I also can’t bring myself to go back there until I’m calm.Finding a place to sit, I took a deep breath and looked up at the sky. I didn’t want to wander too far off because Nikolai might try looking for me.The fact that everything looks familiar calmed me do
Nikolai’s POVThe night was going smoothly and having Lilliana in my arms felt like having heaven within my reach and when she hugged me.Goodness, when she hugged me, it felt as though time had stopped and it felt so good. I was so afraid of moving that I couldn’t even breathe.She felt so warm and her body felt really soft pushed up against me, I wanted to keep holding her without ever letting her go.My heart pounded and I could hear the gushing sound of my own blood as it rushed through my veins, spreading to every part of my being.Closing my eyes, I took in a whiff of her delicious scent and I wanted nothing to take away this moment.The urge to keep her close to me was insane, I didn’t want to let go of her, I wanted to maintain that proximity, to keep loving her and overall, to protect her. I felt her muscles tensed and I could feel that something was wrong as she pulled away from me.“What’s wrong? Are you okay?” I asked but she looked so lost that she probably didn’t hear w
