“I see how you look at me, Daddy,” I teased as I stared up at him defiantly. Dario’s jaws clenched, and he dragged me by the arm until I was facing the door and my back was pressed against his chest. “And what do you want, princess?” My heart raced, my breath coming in huffs at his closeness. I have dreamt of this day for so many years. Now that it was here, there was no holding back… **** **** Tragedy struck Isla when her father and pack were completely destroyed after her eighteenth birthday, and now, the only person who can take care of her is Dario, her father’s best friend. However, not only is he her godfather, he’s her fated mate and the one man that she has wanted all her life. He was the one forbidden thing that she couldn’t have. But couldn’t stop wanting.
View MoreIsla’s POVAfter Dario had left, the sound of the door opening caught my ears. At first I thought it was Dario who had probably forgotten something but the sound of the high-pitched woman’s voice made me realise that it wasn’t Dario.“ I thought you were Dario.” I said, walking in Diane’s direction. After everything that had happened between Diane and I we’ve settled our differences thanks to our grandmother, and I’ve also learned to forgive her.If it wasn’t for her, I wouldn’t be where I was and my grandmother wouldn’t have come into my life. It was safe to say that Diane was part of the reason my things took a turn for the best. Now, I knew who I was and understood what I was capable of.“Are you going to stand there or pretend that I’m the love of your life?” Diane’s voice cut through my thoughts.“I think I’ll pass. Your short frame is no match for the tall one Dario possesses.” I pointed out.“Okay, that hurt a lot.” Diane replied.“Suck it up.” I cooed walking back to the
Dario’s POV (6 months later.)The sunlight filtering through the curtains had awoken me, I pulled myself up staring at Isla who was sound asleep. I moved closer to her, with my eyes landing on her bump.Isla’s body had expanded during the last six months and it was lovely to see her body transform in that manner. Till now, it still fascinated me how her tiny and slender body grew.I used my fingertips to trace her belly as those thoughts settled in my mind. The time I had decided to stop. Isla had reacted to it. Her eyes which was once close flickered open, and she stared at me.“Good morning.” I whispered, adjusting myself upwards to give her a kiss.“Good morning my love.” She had responded, with her lips meeting mine. We stayed in that position for a while before I pulled away, moving down to her belly.I rested my head close to it, with my fingers moving round the bump. “I think she wants to say good morning too.” I pointed out.“Do you think so?”“I know so!” I said looking
Isla’s POVThe following day, the guilty feeling in me had picked up. A part of me felt like I was the one who had controlled Dario to say those words he said yesterday.I had influenced his actions, probably because I was scared of losing him. I know my theory sounded crazy but my grandfather had said I willed the power to make and break things. Right now, I didn’t even trust myself nor did I trust our mate bond. It felt like it was a facade, and an illusion. Like it wasn’t real because I had forced it to happen. My heart ached just thinking about it, and it became even worse when my eyes landed on Dario. He was still asleep and had the most peaceful look in his eyes. I knew that in his mind, he was thinking that he had won me back and chased away the guilty feeling within me but little did he know that his words had increased it.My eyes which were on him shifted to the other side of the room, as thoughts settled in my head. I didn’t spend much time lost in my head as the soun
Dario’s POV“It doesn’t end there.” Isla’s grandfather said. My eyes turned to Isla and her gaze was placed on her grandfather, that she didn’t notice that I was staring at her.My eyes flickered away, when I heard his voice picked up, in a rather rouged tone.“Isla holds the power to make and break things.” He said. “That is why the one with the power of the moon is supposed to remain pure and chaste, otherwise, they would lose their powers and would even cause bad things to start happening to the people around them.”“And now with this pregnancy and the things that have happened between the both of you, the chaos that awaits us.” He continued. “Is so much greater than you could imagine.”My heart skipped a beat as I heard his words, chaos. I believed that there was a way out of all this. Isla’s grandfather had known about the prophecy for years, surely he knew what to do in this case.I peered his way. “Isn’t there a way out of all this?” I spoke with concern.“Things can’t just—”
Isla’s POVThe next day, Dario and I had breakfast together. It had been a while since we did,and it felt so good. Dario had even insisted that he was going to make me something special after I was done with my toast. I wanted to refuse but before I could speak he had left my side and headed to the kitchen.“Another special meal for a special lady!” Dario said, dropping another plate of food on the table.“Dario you didn’t have to do this.”“And miss you having something sweet in the morning no way.” He chimed.“So what is this?” I cooed, staring at the plate in front of me, after having toast I thought I wouldn’t have any room for more food but staring at this somehow opened up my stomach.“This.” He pointed to the food. “Is going to knock your taste buds off .”“I doubt that.”“Try it and see.” I followed his words, and with my folk I cut a piece out of it, then I shoved it down my throat.Surprisingly, it was delicious, just as Dario said it would be. I tried to hide the fact
Isla’s POVI watched as my grandfather left the room with the others following him behind. My mind was focused more on his words as I tried to process it . What did he mean by only me having the power? I turned to look at Dario, and from the look in his eyes. It was clear that he was trying to process the words that my grandfather had said, and as I stared deeper into his eyes. I noticed something strange, well it wasn’t strange. That look in his eyes displayed that Dario wasn’t trying to process what my grandfather had said. He knew exactly what he was talking about.“Dario!” I called after him, without wasting any time. Curiosity had descended on me, I wanted to find out what he knew.Dario looked in my direction, he maintained eye-contact with me, breaking it off the instant I spoke.“Do you understand what my grandfather was talking about?”He was quiet, like he was thinking of the right words to say or probably he was trying to put his words together.“Dario!” I called out hu
Dario’s POVI couldn’t stop thinking about the reason why Isla’s grandfather had called, my mind was a mess as I navigated my car down the road. Did he want to discuss what we had talked about before or was it something more?I increased the speed in which I drove, and when I finally arrived at the mansion, I didn’t hesitate to step down from the car.As I hurriedly walked to the entrance, I noticed that there were other cars parked outside. Pulling my eyes away, I stepped into the house, and my eyes landed on Isla’s grandfather, Diane’s parents and Isla’s grandfather's second son. Diane was also standing by their side.I could feel the tension in the air, as I moved close to them.“You have finally arrived.” Isla’s grandfather said with a lot of edginess in his voice.“We have been waiting for you!”“Where’s Isla?” I asked in a worried tone. The fact that I didn’t see her around them made me worried. Did something happen to her? If something had happened to her I could never forg
Isla’s POVI trembled, with no words left in my mouth, my grandfather looked annoyed, very annoyed like he was going to hit me if I didn’t talk, but there was nothing I could do. I had to keep quiet.“Fine! So you’re not going to talk.” Gran—Gran pointed out. “I’ll have to call Dario then.”I watched as my grandfather removed his phone from his pocket, then he adjusted the device in his hands. My heart thumped wildly as I stared at him.“Dario!” He said with a firm voice. I closed my eyes as I knew the words that would spill out next. My eyes which were closed shot open, the moment I heard my grandfather speak up again.“I need you back at your mansion now!” With that being said, he ended the call. I was shocked by his words. I expected him to hit the nail on the head, and tell Dario right away that I was pregnant but I guessed he was waiting for Dario to arrive before he broke the news.I was lost in my thoughts, that I was unaware that he had spoken up again. It was the feeling
Silvan’s POVI was seated in the midst of the elders of the cult, who happened to be holding a meeting . I was less concerned about what they were talking about, I tried to make my presence known as much as possible by a quick no, but midway across the meeting they had lost me.I stared out of the window, with a hardened look on my face. It had been days since I was released from that jail, and yet the sense of freedom which I’ve been feeling had worn off. I wasn’t excited anymore and Now my mind was focused on other bigger things, and that was—Dario. I wanted Dario to feel exactly how I felt. My eyes, which were on the window, shifted in the direction of the footsteps which seemed to be getting closer. The minute the footsteps stopped, I saw two men appear in front of me, with a grimace look spread across their faces.“Is there any problem?” My voice was cold, and the look on the men’s face changed as they appeared scared. “Weee…have..news..” they had pointed out, stuttering as t
