AERYAHMy mother had been spitting blue fire, literally, as she paced the full length of the dining room. To say I was afraid, was to say the least.i couldn't even explain what had occured in the shed. All I could say, was that my emotions were on a high."Mum, please say something." I urged, completely fed up with the silence and suspense. It was killing me.She stopped in her tracks, and closed her hands in a fist, quenching the blue flame that sat on both palms. The flames were pretty harmless, until they were thrown at a person."What do you want me to say, Aeryah? I'm confused and really, really angry. We do no mate with them. It has never happened before." she spat, and looked at my father, who sat in his own corner, for help.I sighed, running my hands through my red hair. Now that the whole mating madness had cleared up a little bit, I could think straight. The truth was, I never would have thought that I would be mated any time soon. Not in a million years. And especially, no
LARKXEI closed the door behind me and advanced into the room, slowly. It took every bit of will power I had in me, not to rush to the bed, and take her in my arms. This mating thing was killing me, and had almost stripped me of all my selfcontrol. The expression on her face mirrored what I felt inside of me. I wasn't alone.I watched as she adjusted the sheets she had drawn up to her chest, drawing my attention to the rise and fall of her chest. She was nervous. I could tell. A little bit of the memory of the night we spent together, flashed in my mind. I licked my lips. My cock throbbed inside the confines of my jean, and I was happy the legs were loose enough to hide the indentation.That wasn't the reason I was here. I was here because I had resolved with my parents to marry her. It was crazy...I know, but I wanted to do things the right way. Aside from being my mate, she was intriguing as hell. And I was smitten by here."Hey..." I said, standing before her, just at the foot of
AERYAHI jolted out if the bed as soon as I heard the scream pierce through the air, almost sending Larkxe go the floor. Quickly, I rushed to the closet to get some clothes while Larkxe struggling to get himself together. "What the hell is goibg on?" he asked, rhetorically, and moved for the door. My eyes were wide too as I covered myself quickly and followed him out."What is going on?" This time, I asked a domestic staff who happened to be passing by as we made our way up the stairs, to the west wing. That was where the sound had come from.The woman shook her head and pointed in the direction we were going. "I don't know, we all heard it, and are headed there now." she answered and gave Larkxe a brief look, before going up ahead of us.I turned to look at him with a frown on my face. His expression mirrored mine as we made our way up. I could suddenly feel shivers as we approached the last floor. That wasn't good.My mother, aunt, cousin, and some of the staff, were all standing
AERYAHI hadn't seen Larkxe in hours. My parents had led out of the room to give him privacy and time to grieve his parents. But now, I just wanted to be by his side, which is why I was making my way to the bathroom. I had seen the door which connected the two rooms together, when I had gone to take my bath earlier. But it had been locked. Larkxe had locked it, and I was very sure he hadn't come in since the incident either.Slowly, I stepped into the bathroom, and headed for the door, placing my hand in the knob and placing some spells on it. The door gave, and I pushed it, and stepped inside his room.I didn't have time to admire the room, just concentrating on the figure sprawled across the bed in am awkward position. I could hear the sound of his breath, and from the rhythm, I knew he wasn't asleep."Aeryah?" he sighed, and turned lazily to face me. The sight of his face made my heart melt. With bare feet, I padded across the room and climbed into the bed, not bothering to wait fo
AARYAHI parked my car just before the boundary of the town where I was born, and just stared at the emptiness before me. It wasn’t exactly a ‘town’, more like acres upon acres of land that spanned widely, housing lots of families in it. One would take one look at its unappealing and creepy boundary and turn away. But I knew what lay beneath the so called ‘emptiness’.It was crazy how any body who drove to this path, always saw an empty unappealing sight ahead of them. It was crazy, and at the same time, it was quite impressive.Lakewood was a settlement for a whole pack of werewolves and shared its space with witches. All living with law that seemed so simple, but were still hard to follow. Just like everyday laws that governed the human world. I especially knew how hard they were to follow, since I had broken the very first one I had been told as a toddler. I could still remember that day like it had happened just yesterday.My hands tightened on the staring wheel as I inhaled and
LARKXE“Dad, are you being serious right now? You want me to get married to a that woman?” I whispered loudly at my father who stood next to me in the room I had dragged him to, after he had landed the very big blow on me. I had rushed down to the Lakewood mansion when he had called me, thinking there had been an urgent meeting, just as he had implied.I had certainly not been expecting to come home to a full entourage of in-laws-to-be.“Lark, you have to understand that we need this alliance to make our pack stronger. You won’t see the use now, but later in the future, when I am no more, you would realize what I have just done for you.” He said, walking closer to me and placing his hands gently on my shoulders as he spoke. If he was thinking what he had just said to me make any sense, then he had a big one coming.I shook his hands off my shoulders and walked away from where he was. I thanked the moon for the kind of walls we had in the mansion. The walls of Mansion Lakewood was bui
AEYRAH“I can’t believe I’m going to admit that I actually missed this place.” I said as my mother led me into my old room. And no, it didn’t look the same. I could see the signs of renovations that had been done all around the house. “Where is my beautiful bed, mum?” I asked as I looked at the huge king-sized bed that now replaced my old bed. Not that I didn’t like it, but I had loved my old bed so much I had actually been looking forward to it.My mother waved me off. “Oh, your dad had that given away to Maryah’s daughter a long time ago.”Oh.I put it at the back of my mind to visit my cousin’s room so I could catch a glimpse of my beloved bed. “Maryah? Where is she?” I asked. There wasn’t a lot of gab between I and my cousin, just three years, but she had been really shy all those years ago, keeping to herself most of the time. It had made us a little bit distant from each other, even if we only had each other to rely on for friendship.As I remembered it, I felt bad for leaving h
AEYRAHI was still reeling from the shock of what had happened in the bathroom close to two hours later, when my bedroom door suddenly opened. I quick muttered some spells under my breath to make the whole room have my scent.I knew the Lakewood castle, even if I had been gone for a long time. And I knew that one always tried to avoid any kind of scandal.“It’s really dark in here, you should have pulled the curtains open.” My mum said, as she entered the room, walking straight to the curtains and pulling them open. “Mum, the room is actually lit up, and it’s not really necessary to open those.” I protested, although I knew it all fell on deaf ears, but one could at least try?“Oh ahh..” exactly the answer I expect. “Maryah is back and would very well soon be on her way to see you!” My mum clapped her hands excitedly. Of course I was also excited to see my shy cousin. “Oh, I’ll be waiting for her then.” I replied and got up from my bed, stretching to release the tension in my muscle
